Keybind info sending

[david476]

Could somebody point me in the right direction for using key binding to control entities? (Haven't used packets except for TEs and DataWatchers)

 

Also, is there a way to access vanilla keybinds, I want to use WASD while mounted but my own override vanilla's (mod works but you can't walk)

All key input is client-side only; vanilla keybindings are accessed via the game settings:

Minecraft.getMinecraft().gameSettings.keyBindForward/Back/Left/Right.

 

You can use KeyInputEvent to listen for the vanilla movement keys being pressed and send appropriate custom packets if the client player is riding your custom entity, which would basically just add velocity to it (which is usually even done from the client side - heck, you might not even need packets if you are only modifying movement).

 

Anyway, I'd look at the Horse / Pig and see how they do it.

I have the keybinding and forge event set up but I need some help with the actual packets, I'm not using velocity for a number of reasons. I'll check out those two!

P.S. Could you at least pint me in the direction of those classes, sure that it's not just the EntityPig class.
