Posted March 2, 201411 yr comment_86873 I have a Tile entity that I want to send data, I've been studying tile entities, For checking for the tile entity next to it would I use this?: this.worldObj.blockHasTileEntity(this.xCoord+1, this.yCoord, this.zCoord); this.worldObj.blockHasTileEntity(this.xCoord-1, this.yCoord, this.zCoord); this.worldObj.blockHasTileEntity(this.xCoord, this.yCoord+1, this.zCoord); this.worldObj.blockHasTileEntity(this.xCoord, this.yCoord-1, this.zCoord); this.worldObj.blockHasTileEntity(this.xCoord, this.yCoord, this.zCoord+1); this.worldObj.blockHasTileEntity(this.xCoord, this.yCoord, this.zCoord-1); And make it enter a Boolean to check if it can send data between the tile entities But I don't know if that will check for the certain tile entity class, or just all tile entities classes(chest, hopper). I'm trying to target a wire that can send custom data( energy, speed dependent on energy) And for the transferring data I still yet know how to. Any help will be VERY appreciated.

March 2, 201411 yr comment_86880 Those will tell you that yes there is a tile entity there, but won't tell you what kind. You need to use worldObj.getBlockTileEntityAt(...) and then check for kind (instanceof) and typecast it. Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
March 2, 201411 yr Author comment_86881 Great thanks, and how would I send data between blocks. Not new to java >> New to modding.
March 2, 201411 yr Author comment_86883 And is this right for checking if there is the certain tile entity next to it: public class TileEntityWire extends TileEntity { public void updateEntity() { if(this.worldObj.getBlockTileEntity(this.xCoord+1, this.yCoord, this.zCoord) != null) { //Can Send DATA } if(this.worldObj.getBlockTileEntity(this.xCoord-1, this.yCoord, this.zCoord) != null){ } if(this.worldObj.getBlockTileEntity(this.xCoord, this.yCoord+1, this.zCoord) != null) { } if(this.worldObj.getBlockTileEntity(this.xCoord, this.yCoord-1, this.zCoord) != null) { } if(this.worldObj.getBlockTileEntity(this.xCoord, this.yCoord, this.zCoord+1) != null){ } if(this.worldObj.getBlockTileEntity(this.xCoord, this.yCoord, this.zCoord-1) != null) { } } Not new to java >> New to modding.
March 3, 201411 yr comment_86940 more like if(this.worldObj.getBlockTileEntity(this.xCoord+1, this.yCoord, this.zCoord) != null) { if(this.worldObj.getBlockTileEntity(this.xCoord+1, this.yCoord, this.zCoord) instanceof TileEntityWire) { //can send data } } Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.

March 4, 201411 yr comment_87208 Well yes. But I left that as an exercise to the reader.

March 4, 201411 yr comment_87212 Well yes. But I left that as an exercise to the reader. I see. But if you really wanna make an excercise for the reader, use pseudocode Don't ask for support per PM!

March 4, 201411 yr comment_87242 But if you really wanna make an excercise for the reader, use pseudocode All I did was correct an error he'd already made. You have to make sure you're retrieving the right TE. How you go about getting/saving references is up to you.
