[SOLVED] Gui - server interaction

[Porteffroi]

Hi,

 

I currently have a set of commands executed on server side. I made a GUI to allow users an easy access to the features and perform the same actions as commands but the problem is my Gui is on client. So I need a way to execute code on server side when an action is performed on the GUI and to be able to find the player who did it.

 

Is there a way to emulate the use of commands such that i can send these to the server when a player click on the buttons ?

 

I tried addChatMessage but this does not check if it's a command and simply display it in the chat.

I also found a way to send commands like if it was typed in the server terminal using MinecraftServer getters but i think it does not allow to recover which player issued the command.

 

Can somebody help ?

Thanks a lot.

You need to use packets. There are tutorials on how to utilize packets in Forge all over the internet.

Ok, i suppose it's a better way to do it. But i could not find how to insert the player reference in the packets ...

 

As i had already commands allowing to do the action, i found a way to force a client to send a command. Here the code line if someone have the same problem :

 

((EntityClientPlayerMP) entityPlayer).sendChatMessage("/[command]");

 

Unfortunately it's not very OOP but it works.
