I'm trying to use events to detect when a player dies and then respawns:

 

relevant parts of main mod class:

package einhaender.modEin;

//all the necessary imports

@Mod(modid = ModEin.MODID, version = ModEin.VERSION)
public class ModEin
{
        @EventHandler
public void postInit(FMLPostInitializationEvent event)
{
	MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register (new ListenerDeath ());
	FMLCommonHandler.instance ().bus ().register (new ListenerDeath ());
}
}

 

the class with the listeners:

package einhaender.modEin;

import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.util.ChatComponentText;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.living.LivingSpawnEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.living.LivingSpawnEvent.CheckSpawn;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.eventhandler.SubscribeEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.gameevent.PlayerEvent.PlayerLoggedInEvent;


public class ListenerDeath
{
@SubscribeEvent
public void onLogin(PlayerLoggedInEvent event)
{
	event.player.addChatComponentMessage (new ChatComponentText ("you just logged in!!!!!"));
}

@SubscribeEvent
public void onSpawn(CheckSpawn event)
{
	System.out.println ("Something just tried to spawn!!!");
	if (event.entity instanceof EntityPlayer)
		((EntityPlayer) event.entity).addChatComponentMessage (new ChatComponentText ("you just tried to spawn"));
}

@SubscribeEvent
public void onLivingSpawn(LivingSpawnEvent event)
{
	System.out.println ("A living just spawned.");
	if (!event.world.isRemote)
	{
		if (event.entityLiving instanceof EntityPlayer)
		{
			((EntityPlayer) event.entityLiving).addChatMessage (new ChatComponentText ("you just spawned!!!"));
		}
	}
}
}

 

When I enter a new world, a chat message "you just logged in" pops up, so I'm registering the listener properly. I just can't find any events that are executed when a player respawns. And I can't get the CheckSpawn or LivingSpawnEvent events to run at all.

 

So, is LivingSpawnEvent just not run when a player/mob spawns, or am I doing something wrong in my code?

 

Thanks for taking the time to read this!

 

 

SOLUTION

package einhaender.modEin;

import java.util.ArrayList;

import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.util.ChatComponentText;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.EntityJoinWorldEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.living.LivingDeathEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.living.LivingSpawnEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.living.LivingSpawnEvent.CheckSpawn;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.eventhandler.SubscribeEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.gameevent.PlayerEvent.PlayerLoggedInEvent;


public class ListenerDeath
{
ArrayList<EntityPlayer>	deadPlayers	= new ArrayList<EntityPlayer> ();

@SubscribeEvent
public void death(LivingDeathEvent event)
{
	if (!event.entity.worldObj.isRemote)
	{
		if (event.entity instanceof EntityPlayer)
		{
			deadPlayers.add ((EntityPlayer) event.entity);
		}
	}
}

@SubscribeEvent
public void entitySpawned (EntityJoinWorldEvent event)
{
	if (!event.world.isRemote)
	{
		if (event.entity instanceof EntityPlayer)
		{
			if (deadPlayers.contains ((EntityPlayer) event.entity))
			{
				EntityPlayer player = (EntityPlayer) event.entity;
				doStuffWithRespawnedPlayer (player);
				deadPlayers.remove (player);
			}
		}
	}
}

private void doStuffWithRespawnedPlayer(EntityPlayer player)
{
	player.setPositionAndUpdate (8.5, 16, 8.5);
}
}

For death: LivingDeathEvent

 

For the respawn EntityJoinedWorldEvent (or something similar).

thanks Kwibble!

it's working perfectly now!
