Checking for Vanilla tool right click.

[Minothor]

Sorry, me again, is there any way of listening for right mouse button clicks on vanilla tools (specifically axes) that doesn't involve access modifiers or listening to every single right click then checking the tool in hand?

I suppose, what I'm asking really, is this: Is there any way to have a function that only listens for rightclicks when a specific tool type is in hand at that moment?

 

(background fluff: I'm hoping to make it possible to right click oak logs with any axe to strip the bark (cork) off. I don't want to add in another type of axe just for stripping bark)

 

Cheers in advance.

Not really, but there is the PlayerInteractEvent which fires for LEFT_CLICK_BLOCK, RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK, and RIGHT_CLICK_AIR. Use that to check (on right click block) if the held item is an axe and do your thing from there.

Ok, I've decided that the easiest way to support all axes and those from other mods would probably be to register them with the oreDict under "toolAxe".

That said, I'm really struggling with the event handling, I've look up what documentation I can from the Wiki's reference, searching the forums and AtomicStryker's post here: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1419836- )

 

Currently the only thing that Eclipse is being a bit iffy about is the @ForgeSubscribe annotation before the function.

Can anyone shed any light on how and where I'm mucking up here please?

Thanks in Advance,

@ForgeSubscribe is for 1.6.

@SubscribeEvent for 1.7.

 

On 1.7, there are PlayerUseItemEvent events, and Item#getToolClasses(ItemStack).

Ok, I've decided that the easiest way to support all axes and those from other mods would probably be to register them with the oreDict under "toolAxe".

 

Not at all. Why would any other mod register one of their axes in an "ore" dictionary? Answer: they won't. Use the instanceof ItemAxe or at least instanceof ItemTool (Here you would check the name for having 'axe' or 'hatchet' in it but not pickaxe) Any coder with any brains is likely not going to make an axe in some other class.

 

The OreDictionary should be reserved for crafting.

 

You should register crafting recipes in Init eventhandler not preinit.
