I've been trying to figure out how to get a "Star Catcher" to work, where it drops an item downwards X amount of ticks. I've managed to get it to drop the item. but I can get it to increment a variable very tick, then when variable is = to Y, reset variable and do something. Here is my code (The code that drops the item isn't included, but if it was, it would be under tickEnd):

public void tickStart(EnumSet<WorldTickEvent.Type> type, Object... tickData)
{

}

public EnumSet<WorldTickEvent.Type> ticks()
{
	return EnumSet.of(WorldTickEvent.Type.WORLD);
}



public void tickEnd(EnumSet<WorldTickEvent.Type> type, Object... tickData)
{
	if(currentTick/20 < 15  || isLesserStarReady == false)
	{
		currentTick++;
		System.out.println("BlockTick!");
	}else if(currentTick/20 >= 15)
	{
		System.out.println("Star Ready!");
		isLesserStarReady = true;
	}
}

 

Please help?

Which version is this? Because in newer versions you have to subscribe to a tick event.

1.7.10. I know that I need to subscribe, but I dont know how I'm supposed to, and apparently I'm also supposed to register a tick handler.

public class Ticker{
    @SubscribeEvent
    public void worldTick(TickEvent.WorldTickEvent event) {
        if (event.phase == TickEvent.Phase.END){
          do_something();
        }
    }
}

 

FMLCommonHandler.instance().bus().register(new Ticker());
