How do I add a potion effect to armor in 1.7.10

I found a tutorial for 1.7.2 that said I just have to add:

 

    @Override

    public void onArmorTick(World world, EntityPlayer player, ItemStack armor)

    {

        player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(Potion.nightVision.id, 500, 1, true));

    }

 

to my Armor code but it doesn't give the player Night vision when he equip it. any help?

Would it be better to only have it for maybe 10 ticks and it will refresh?

Also just checking, I do make it server side using    @SideOnly(Server)?

I made it server side and changed the tick time but it still doesn't work.

here is my code: http://goo.gl/XNE7vO

You either did not read or did not understand the tutorial I posted. The title already tells you your mistake.

 

I understand the difference between Server and Client, but I don't understand what you mean by the alternatives

Ok, say I don't use @SideOnly. Why won't my code work still

And how would I do that without using "@SideOnly", because your tutorial isn't clear on that

u can simply check with world.isRemote

And how would I do that without using "@SideOnly", because your tutorial isn't clear on that

Yes, it is clear. There's a section about what to use instead.

 

Well I was confused by it.

I have this now:

 

    @Override

    public void onArmorTick(World world, EntityPlayer player, ItemStack armor)

    {

        if(world.isRemote == true)

        {

            player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(Potion.nightVision.id, 2, 1, true));

        }

    }

 

Can you tell me if that is done correctly?

So how should I do it?

Check for the server, not the client.

 

So "if(world.isRemote = false)"

if(!world.isRemote)

if(!world.isRemote)

 

My code is:

 

    @Override

    public void onArmorTick(World world, EntityPlayer player, ItemStack armor)

    {

        if(!world.isRemote)

        {

            player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(Potion.nightVision.id, 2, 1, true));

        }

    }

 

But the player still doesn't get night vision

I use a PlayerTickEvent for armor bonuses. Maybe try that?

Can someone just give me a chunk of code that will give the user of a peace of armor Night Vision

You already have the right code. The cause must be somewhere else. As I said, please use a breakpoint to determine if the method is actually getting called.

 

I'm not sure why it wasn't working before, but it is working now. thanks for the help anyway
