So i'm trying to synchronise these arrays between the client and server, except i cant even get an int to sync using packets (must be packets, not datawatcher). Here's my packet class :

 

(Seriously, is there a problem with macs and that damn code button?)

 

package mine.packethandling;

 

import cpw.mods.fml.common.FMLCommonHandler;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.FMLLog;

import mine.player.PlayerSkills;

import mine.player.PlayerSkills.Skill;

import mine.util.Me;

import io.netty.buffer.ByteBuf;

import io.netty.channel.ChannelHandlerContext;

import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;

 

public class PacketSyncProps extends AbstractPacket {

 

int times;

public PacketSyncProps(){}

 

public PacketSyncProps(int times)

{

Me.log(this.getClass(),"When created, times = " + times);

this.times = times;

}

 

 

@Override

public void encodeInto(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, ByteBuf buffer) {

 

}

 

@Override

public void decodeInto(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, ByteBuf buffer) {

 

}

 

@Override

public void handleClientSide(EntityPlayer player)

{

Me.log(this.getClass(), "Client side syncing player with sent data");

Me.log(this.getClass(), "Existing data : Times : " + this.times);

}

 

@Override

public void handleServerSide(EntityPlayer player)

{

Me.log(this.getClass(), "Why was this sent to server?");

Me.log(this.getClass(), "Fish level pre death " + PlayerStats(player).getSkill(Skill.ONE));

PlayerStats(player).incrementSkill(Skill.ONE, player);

 

}

 

}

 

And that packet is created server-side with :

Me.packetPipeline.sendTo(new PacketSyncProps(12), (EntityPlayerMP) player);

 

(The Me.log spits out the class, the effective side and then the message, and everything is happeneing on the right side)

Why does this.times say 0 when i set it to 12?

Oh... (facepalm) Nowhere in all the tutorials i found said that... Hmm, how would i go about that?

You sir, are a life saver. Have all the upvotes/highfives/whatevers.

 

Well, now what do i do with : readerIndex(4) + length(4) exceeds writerIndex(4)?

For an example of sending/receiving packets, take a look at my network code;

https://github.com/wiggertolsma/usefullstuff/tree/master/src/main/java/ace/usefullstuff/packets

 

This code comes from the wiki, and works perfectly.

To send a packet, you use ModInstance.packetPipeline.sendTo(new -packetClass-, player).

 

Hope this helps you! It's fully 1.7.4 compatible

Well, now what do i do with : readerIndex(4) + length(4) exceeds writerIndex(4)?

That sounds like the packet data that you are reading is larger than the packet data you wrote, or maybe the other way around, though I could be completely wrong. Why not show us your encodeInto and decodeInto code?

I solved it now, but was away when i was doing it so couldnt update you all. Here's how it works for me :

 

@Override

public void encodeInto(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, ByteBuf buffer)

{

RSLogging.log(this.getClass(), "Encoding Exp " + ExpAmount + " " + SkillAmount + " for " + theSkill.ordinal());

buffer.writeInt(ExpAmount);

buffer.writeInt(SkillAmount);

buffer.writeInt(theSkill.ordinal());

}

 

@Override

public void decodeInto(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, ByteBuf buffer)

{

this.ExpAmount = buffer.readInt();

this.SkillAmount = buffer.readInt();

this.theSkill = Skill.getValue(buffer.readInt());

 

Me.log(this.getClass(), "Decoding : Exp " + ExpAmount + " " + SkillAmount + " for " + theSkill);

 

}
