[1.8][SOLVED] Items put in chest not showing

[wendrom]

So I got a list of block positions that I iterate through. They are locations of chests to put random items in.

 

[embed=425,349]public List<BlockPos> chestGeneric = new ArrayList<BlockPos>();[/embed]

 

I use this method to go to each chest and put some items in (I'm using paper just to test).

 

[embed=425,349]

public void fillChests()

{

  World world = Minecraft.getMinecraft().theWorld;

  System.out.println("Filling chests...");

  Random rand = new Random();

  for (Iterator<BlockPos> iter = chestGeneric.iterator(); iter.hasNext()

  {

    BlockPos position = iter.next();

    TileEntityChest chest = (TileEntityChest)world.getTileEntity(position);

    System.out.println("> Looking for chest...");

    if (chest.getBlockType() == Blocks.chest)

    {

      System.out.println(">> chest at x: " + position.getX() + " y: " + position.getY() + " z: " + position.getZ());

      for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)

      {

        System.out.println(">>> Setting slot: " + i);

        chest.setInventorySlotContents(rand.nextInt(chest.getSizeInventory()), new ItemStack(Items.paper, 5));

      }

      world.markBlockForUpdate(position);

    }

  }

  System.out.println("Chests filled.");

}

This runs when I do a command and the log outputs this with no errors:

But in game when I look in the chests, there are no items found and I don't know why.

 

Any ideas?

World world = Minecraft.getMinecraft().theWorld;

 

That's the client-side world.  The server is undoing all of your changes.

Thank you very much! It works exactly as I need it to now.

 

I just changed

[embed=425,349]World world = Minecraft.getMinecraft().theWorld;[/embed]

to

[embed=425,349]World world = MinecraftServer.getServer().worldServers[0];[/embed]

That code's only going to work in the overworld. Dimension/WorldServer 0 is the overworld, so be forewarned, it won't work in the nether/end/any other dimension.

Where do you call fillChests()?

 

Depending on where it's called, you either have a World object or something which holds one (entity, tileentity, chunk, world generator etc.).
