How would I - Right clicking block yields a message in the chatbox

[Forabor]

I have a block.

I want to be able to right click it and have it so that it tells me something in the chatbox.

 

For example,

 

Make it so that when you click on a button it says in the chatbox "you hit the button, gratz newb"

 

Like that..

 

Thanks in advance

This is your own custom block, right?  In that case I think you can @Override the onBlockActivated() method which should be called when your block is right-clicked.

 

In that method, you should check that you're on the server side bychecking if the world parameter (the first parameter passed to the onBlockActivated() method is the world) is not remote (not remote means it is server side).

 

Then you should send the chat message.  You can use player.sendChatToPlayer(message) method.  The player is one of the parameters passed into the onBlockActivated() as well.

 

I think you get the idea....

So this is what i have been able to come up with but i still cannot figure it out Where have i gone wrong?!

Remove the @SideOnly stuff

Also, you're using !world.isRemote == false.

 

If you want it to happen on the client, use world.isRemote, if you want it to happen on a server use !world.isRemote. There's no reason to invert it, an then check for false (that's inverting it twice, and is simply redundant).
