[1.7.10] Wrong Event?

[Abastro]

1. Please don't use SideOnly.. Instead, register it on client proxy

2. You should set up your own IMessage and IMessageHandler implementations, to process the key input packet.

Now in the sendToServer(); bit what do I actually put in the parenthesis?

Is it something I choose or does it need to be something specific?

 

Seriously?  Of course it needs to be something specific.

First of all, you should learn to use your IDE (Eclipse or whatever) to help you. If you hover over the sendToServer() method it should tell you the parameter types needed, and that should give you a clue. It his case I think will tell you you need an IMessage.

 

As mentioned above, you need to implement your own IMessage and message handler implementation.

 

Now, in the message itself you actually get to choose what goes in. You create a "payload" using a ByteBuf that it is up to you what you put in and what order you put it in. But you have to make sure that the packet receiving method takes it out in same order.

Okay I have the packets working, and now I'm stuck on figuring out the key state.

 

I have the water movement working fine for climbing out but at the moment it stays that way because I haven't figured out how to properly do the unpressed part.

 

Ive tried doing this:

 

KeyHandler:

package robo51.newt.handlers;

 

import net.minecraft.client.settings.KeyBinding;

import robo51.newt.packets.NewtMessage;

import robo51.newt.packets.PacketRegistry;

import robo51.newt.proxy.ClientProxy;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.eventhandler.EventPriority;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.eventhandler.SubscribeEvent;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.gameevent.InputEvent.KeyInputEvent;

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;

 

public class KeyHandler {

 

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

@SubscribeEvent(priority=EventPriority.NORMAL, receiveCanceled=true)

public void onEvent(KeyInputEvent event) {

 

    // make local copy of key binding array

    KeyBinding[] keyBindings = ClientProxy.keyBindings;

   

    // check each enumerated key binding type for pressed and take appropriate action

    if (keyBindings[0].isPressed()) { //WaterRise

    PacketRegistry.network.sendToServer(new NewtMessage("UseStateChanged"));

        // DEBUG

        System.out.println("Key binding ="+keyBindings[0].getKeyDescription());

    }

 

    if (keyBindings[1].isPressed()) {

        // DEBUG

        System.out.println("Key binding ="+keyBindings[1].getKeyDescription());

        // do stuff for this key binding here

        // remember you may need to send packet to server

    }

 

}

 

}

 

 

 

And this is the message recevier:

package robo51.newt.packets;

 

import robo51.newt.handlers.WaterSealantHandler;

import io.netty.buffer.ByteBuf;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.ByteBufUtils;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.simpleimpl.IMessage;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.simpleimpl.IMessageHandler;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.simpleimpl.MessageContext;

 

public class NewtMessage implements IMessage {

 

private String text;

    public static boolean workingwater = false;

 

public NewtMessage() {

 

}

 

public NewtMessage(String text) {

this.text = text;

}

 

@Override

public void fromBytes(ByteBuf buf) {

        text = ByteBufUtils.readUTF8String(buf);

}

 

@Override

public void toBytes(ByteBuf buf) {

        ByteBufUtils.writeUTF8String(buf, text);

}

 

public static class Handler implements IMessageHandler<NewtMessage, IMessage> {

 

@Override

public IMessage onMessage(NewtMessage message, MessageContext ctx) {

            System.out.println(String.format("Received %s from %s", message.text, ctx.getServerHandler().playerEntity.getDisplayName()));

           

WaterSealantHandler.waterup = workingwater;

           

            if(workingwater = false) {

            WaterSealantHandler.waterup = true;

            System.out.println("Waterup set to true");

            } else if(workingwater = true) {

            WaterSealantHandler.waterup = false;

            System.out.println("Waterup set to false");

            }

           

return null;

}

 

}

 

}

 

 

 

But it always prints out a setting to false, I'm assuming this is because I've done something weird with the logic.

 

 

Also in the keyhandler I'm using KeyInputEvent but its overwriting vanilla behavior (just the space-bar, I'm not able to jump), should I be using a different event in its place?
