Posted September 6, 201411 yr Hello everyone! I am trying to calculate the change in an energy value over a tick, but I cant seem to figure out how to do this. I am trying to do this because I want to be able to get how much is being generated, used or transmitted, and want to be able to display these values to the player. Thanks for the help. I ask complicated questions, and apparently like to write really long detailed posts. But I also help others when I can.
September 7, 201411 yr Author How do I save a value before a tick? I ask complicated questions, and apparently like to write really long detailed posts. But I also help others when I can.
September 7, 201411 yr Author I mean, the block is constantly ticking, how do I save a variable in one tick, and then save a new variable on the next tick? because surely they would both be saved at the same time, so would have the same value.

September 7, 201411 yr make a field onPreviousTick and, at the end of the tick method, change that to the current value. Next tick you will have it handy and comparable to the new one (and so on..) Check out my blog! http://www.whov.altervista.org
September 7, 201411 yr Author so onPreviousTick would go at the start of the updateEntity() method? I ask complicated questions, and apparently like to write really long detailed posts. But I also help others when I can.
September 7, 201411 yr public void updateEntity() { // DO YOUR OPERATIONS WITH onPreviousTick AND currentVariable onPreviousTick=currentValue; } What part do you not understand? Don't PM me with questions. They will be ignored! Make a thread on the appropriate board for support. 1.12 -> 1.13 primer by williewillus. 1.7.10 and older versions of Minecraft are no longer supported due to it's age! Update to the latest version for support. http://www.howoldisminecraft1710.today/
September 7, 201411 yr Author Okay, thanks for your help. I ask complicated questions, and apparently like to write really long detailed posts. But I also help others when I can.
