Hey guys,

 

I am trying to make ground slams, which attack all entities within a certain radius. It's all working good, except the actual entity attacks aren't working. I keep trying different things, even using vanilla Damage Sources, but it's still not working.

 

Ground Slam Code:

private void doGroundSlam(EntityPlayer player, World world) {

	if(!world.isRemote) {

		return;

	}

	double groundSlamRadius = 5;
	double startX = player.posX - groundSlamRadius;
	double startY = player.posY - groundSlamRadius;
	double startZ = player.posZ - groundSlamRadius;
	double endX = player.posX + groundSlamRadius;
	double endY = player.posY + groundSlamRadius;
	double endZ = player.posZ + groundSlamRadius;

	for(Object obj : world.getEntitiesWithinAABBExcludingEntity(player, AxisAlignedBB.getBoundingBox(startX, startY, startZ, endX, endY, endZ))) {

		Entity entity = (Entity)obj;
		double distance = entity.getDistanceToEntity(player);

		if(entity instanceof EntityLivingBase) {

			((EntityLivingBase) entity).attackEntityAsMob(player);

		}

		entity.attackEntityFrom(new DamageSourceGroundSlam(entity, player), (float)distance / 20f);

	}

}

 

DamageSource code:

package assets.aw.common.utils;

import net.minecraft.entity.Entity;
import net.minecraft.util.EntityDamageSourceIndirect;

public class DamageSourceGroundSlam extends EntityDamageSourceIndirect {

public DamageSourceGroundSlam(Entity p_i1568_2_, Entity p_i1568_3_) {

	super("aw.slam", p_i1568_2_, p_i1568_3_);
	this.setDamageBypassesArmor();

}

}

 

Anyone got any ideas?

Ahh, here's the problem:

 

if(!world.isRemote) {

return;

}

 

I've changed it to world.isRemote and fixed up my packets a bit. But now, the attacks work in multiplayer fine, but world.isRemote is ALWAYS true on singleplayer. It even tells me that it registered the event on the server, but the doGroundSlam runs on the client!

I know. I send a packet from the client to be processed on the server. It works perfectly on multiplayer, but singleplayer doesn't work at all.
