[1.7.2] Custom GUI and Implementing IInventory

[loawkise]

I am wanting to create a custom inventory for my custom entity. I have begun by implementing IInventory and have added the unimplemented methods. I am using the wiki tutorial for help (http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Containers_and_GUIs) but I have some methods that aren't entirely the same, plus the wiki doesn't explain a whole lot so some of my code is giving me errors.

 

It hasn't used these methods, so I don't know what they are used for/how to use them:

 

 

 

@Override
public boolean hasCustomInventoryName() {

	return false;

}

@Override
public void markDirty() {



}

@Override
public void openInventory() {

	//It has got openChest()

}

@Override
public void closeInventory() {

	//and closeChest() so I am wondering if they are the same

}

@Override
public boolean isItemValidForSlot(int var1, ItemStack var2) {

	return false;

}

 

 

 

None of those appear on the wiki tutorial but these ones do, however I don't know how to use them correctly as there is no explanation.

 

 

 

@Override
        public void readFromNBT(NBTTagCompound tagCompound) {
                super.readFromNBT(tagCompound);
                
                NBTTagList tagList = tagCompound.getTagList("Inventory");
                for (int i = 0; i < tagList.tagCount(); i++) {
                        NBTTagCompound tag = (NBTTagCompound) tagList.tagAt(i);
                        byte slot = tag.getByte("Slot");
                        if (slot >= 0 && slot < inv.length) {
                                inv[slot] = ItemStack.loadItemStackFromNBT(tag);
                        }
                }
        }

        @Override
        public void writeToNBT(NBTTagCompound tagCompound) {
                super.writeToNBT(tagCompound);
                                
                NBTTagList itemList = new NBTTagList();
                for (int i = 0; i < inv.length; i++) {
                        ItemStack stack = inv[i];
                        if (stack != null) {
                                NBTTagCompound tag = new NBTTagCompound();
                                tag.setByte("Slot", (byte) i);
                                stack.writeToNBT(tag);
                                itemList.appendTag(tag);
                        }
                }
                tagCompound.setTag("Inventory", itemList);
        }

 

 

 

If anyone could explain some of this it would be highly appreciated as it is my first time trying to make a custom inventory.

Also you can use InventoryBasic.

 

MyInventory.java

public class MyInventory extends InventoryBasic
{
    public MyInventory(String name, int slots)
    {
        super(name, false, slots);
    }
}

 

MyEntity.java

public class MyEntity extends EntityLiving implements IInvBasic
{
public MyInventory gear;

public MyEntity(World world)
    {
        super(world);
        //other inits
        setupInventory();
            this.gear.setInventorySlotContents(0, new ItemStack(Items.apple));
            this.gear.setInventorySlotContents(1, new ItemStack(Items.carrot));
    }

private void setupInventory() {
        MyInventory gear1 = this.gear;
        this.gear = new MyInventory("MyInventory", howManySlots());
        this.gear.func_110133_a(this.getCommandSenderName());

        if (gear1 != null) {
            gear1.func_110132_b(this);
            int i = Math.min(gear1.getSizeInventory(), this.gear.getSizeInventory());

            for (int j = 0; j < i; ++j) {
                ItemStack itemstack = gear1.getStackInSlot(j);

                if (itemstack != null) {
                    this.gear.setInventorySlotContents(j, itemstack.copy());
                }
            }

            gear1 = null;
        }

        this.gear.func_110134_a(this);
    }

public int howManySlots() {
        return this.getType() == 10;
    }

public void onDeath(DamageSource ds)
    {
       super.onDeath(ds);
       if (gear != null && !this.worldObj.isRemote) { //drop all items
            for (int i = 0; i < gear.getSizeInventory(); ++i) {
                ItemStack itemstack = gear.getStackInSlot(i);

                if (itemstack != null) {
                    this.entityDropItem(itemstack, 0.0F);
                }
            }
        }
    }

public void writeEntityToNBT(NBTTagCompound com) {
        NBTTagList nbttaglist = new NBTTagList();
        for (int i = 0; i < this.gear.getSizeInventory(); ++i) {
            ItemStack itemstack = this.gear.getStackInSlot(i);
            if (itemstack != null) {
                NBTTagCompound nbttagcompound1 = new NBTTagCompound();
                nbttagcompound1.setByte("Slot", (byte) i);
                itemstack.writeToNBT(nbttagcompound1);
                nbttaglist.appendTag(nbttagcompound1);
            }
            com.setTag("Items", nbttaglist);
        }
    }


    public void readEntityFromNBT(NBTTagCompound com) {
        NBTTagList nbttaglist = com.getTagList("Items", 10);
        this.setupGear();
        for (int i = 0; i < nbttaglist.tagCount(); ++i) {
            NBTTagCompound nbttagcompound1 = nbttaglist.getCompoundTagAt(i);
            int j = nbttagcompound1.getByte("Slot") & 255;
            if (j >= 0 && j < this.gear.getSizeInventory()) {
                this.gear.setInventorySlotContents(j, ItemStack.loadItemStackFromNBT(nbttagcompound1));
            }
        }
    }

    public void onInventoryChanged(InventoryBasic inv) {}

    //and other methods

}

 

This is entity inventory part.

Oh, I will take a look at this and get back to you. I saw this before but couldn't find much on it. Thanks

I created and tested pig with inventory for you

 

MyEntity:

 

public class MyEntity extends EntityPig implements IInvBasic {
    public MyInventory gear;


    public MyEntity(World world) {
        super(world);

        return 8;
    }

        this.gear = new MyInventory("MyInventory", howManySlots());
        this.gear.func_110133_a(this.getCommandSenderName());

MyEntityGui:

 

public class MyEntityGui extends GuiContainer {
    private static final ResourceLocation txtr = new ResourceLocation(your ModID in Assets:path/to/testgui.png);
    private int invW = 176;
    private int invH = 90;

    private int lootH = 90;
    private int lootW = 50;


    public MyEntityGui(InventoryPlayer inventoryPlayer,
                   MyInventory inv) {

        this.xSize=300;
        this.ySize=90;
    }

    protected void drawGuiContainerForegroundLayer(int param1, int param2) {}


    protected void drawGuiContainerBackgroundLayer(float par1, int par2,
                                                   int par3) {

        GL11.glColor4f(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F);

        int x = (width - invW) / 2;
        int y = (height - invH) / 2;
        this.drawTexturedModalRect(x, y, 0, 0, invW, invH);

        x = (width/ 2)-150;
        y = (height - lootH) / 2;
        this.drawTexturedModalRect(x, y, 176, 0, lootW, lootH);
    }

}

 

GuiHandler:

 

public class GuiHandler implements IGuiHandler {

    @Override
    public Object getServerGuiElement(int id, EntityPlayer player, World world,
                                      int x, int y, int z) {       
        if(id==5){
            Entity ent = world.getEntityByID(x);
            if(ent!=null && ent instanceof MyEntity){
                return new MyContainer(player.inventory, ((MyEntity)ent).gear);
            }}
        return null;
    }


    @Override
    public Object getClientGuiElement(int id, EntityPlayer player, World world,
                                      int x, int y, int z) {
        
        if(id==5){
            Entity ent = world.getEntityByID(x);
            if(ent!=null && ent instanceof MyEntity){
                return new MyEntityGui(player.inventory, new MyInventory("MyInventory", ((MyEntity) ent).howManySlots()));
            }}

        return null;

    }
}

 

And add this to your main mod class:

 

    @EventHandler
    public void load(FMLInitializationEvent event) {
        EntityRegistry.registerGlobalEntityID(MyEntity.class, "MyEntity", 151, 52, 89);  //creates dark-blue egg to spawn entity
        EntityRegistry.registerModEntity(MyEntity.class, "MyEntity", 151, this, 64, 1, true);

        NetworkRegistry.INSTANCE.registerGuiHandler(this, new GuiHandler());
    }

I have it all working thank you. I will now get to work studying and learning exactly what is going on so I can adapt and create my own
