Only one GUI for a MultiBlock [1.7]

[ccsimon]

Hello there,

recently i started modding with Forge (1.7.2) and yesterday I had the idea to create Multiblocks; the Multiblock itself isn't really the problem, I actually got a GUI and everything else set up, more the inventory of the Multiblock, because each block has its own inventory  , so if i place a stack of wood in one Block, I could put another stack e.g. of cobblestone in the inventory below. So now my question is how to let multiple blocks/tileentities access one inventory... 

 

Thanks for any replies

The easiest is to make your Multiblock choose a "master" TE form the structure. Then no matter which Block is clicked, only that master block's GUI gets displayed.

 

Okay, I know what you mean, but how do I choose a master TileEntity from the blocks?

Well, I think I didn't try enough, because now I figured it out (I changed the GuiHandler to return the Container from the same block every time you click another (with relative coords)).

 

Anyways, thanks for the help
