Hello,

 

I am writing huge combat/weapon/armour API, I've managed to do interfaces that include a bunch of nice wearing/equipping trackers and now trying to add effects whether player is holding something or not.

 

Where can I find a method which tell us which of 9 HotBar slots is a "Held Item" one? Also I am not sure - is this a server side data or local client? (which would be a shame, but i don't think it is).

 

T.Hanks in advance

Retarded me

 

Found answer just a few topics below mine.

 

ticker + player.getCurrentEquippedItem()

 

Shame on me

Well, I wasn't aware of some of the methods in MC code (it has changed a bit over versions and I really don't track every change). Since you may know something more and I'd like to optimalize my code, please tell me what should I rewrite (connect to base MC code).

Interface (only showing 3 that use playerTick())

/**
 * This method is called when player is holding an item.
 */
public void onHeld(ItemStack stack, EntityLivingBase player);

/**
 * This method is called when player is wearing an item in equipment slot.
 */
public void onWorn(ItemStack stack, EntityLivingBase player);

/**
* This method is called when player has an item inside inventory.
*/
public void onCarried(ItemStack stack, EntityLivingBase player);

Handling

@SubscribeEvent
public void playerTick(PlayerEvent.LivingUpdateEvent event) 
//Tracks:
onHeld() //Checks if player.getCurrentEquippedItem() instanceof Interface and does stuff
onWorn() //Scans 12 slots (extended equipment) and checks instanceof
onCarried() //Scans 36 EQ slots + if backpack (custom bp) is present -> scans it too

 

Now: Is thare are way to keep tracking players EQ without scanning up to 70 slots (backpack) every tick?

I was thinking about tracking adding/removing items from inventory, but that will be too pain in the ass (a lot of nulls and unexpected situations).
