Tile entity function running on client side?

[KeeganDeathman]

I have traced the problem! This one function is running on the client! Wait, what?

I have a data system, transmitted by busses, but my first "DataConnectedDevice", can't find the network! Turns out the function to register it isn't running on the server, it's on the client.

I think this is the problem, but I'm not sure.

Most methods in TileEntity (and most other classes) run on both the client and the server.

 

However, I have no idea what you are asking about; please clarify your question and post the relevant code.

Okay so what is happening is the method is only being run on the client, when I need it on the server.

Here is the method in question

public void registerWithNetwork()
{
	if(!worldObj.isRemote) {
		System.out.println("remote");
		if (worldObj.getBlock(xCoord + 1, yCoord, zCoord) != null && id == null) {
			register(xCoord + 1, yCoord, zCoord);
		}if (worldObj.getBlock(xCoord - 1, yCoord, zCoord) != null && id == null) {
			register(xCoord - 1, yCoord, zCoord);
		}if (worldObj.getBlock(xCoord, yCoord + 1, zCoord) != null && id == null) {
			register(xCoord, yCoord + 1, zCoord);
		}if (worldObj.getBlock(xCoord, yCoord - 1, zCoord) != null && id == null) {
			register(xCoord, yCoord - 1, zCoord);
		}if (worldObj.getBlock(xCoord, yCoord, zCoord + 1) != null && id == null) {
			register(xCoord, yCoord, zCoord + 1);
		}if (worldObj.getBlock(xCoord, yCoord, zCoord - 1) != null && id == null) {
			register(xCoord, yCoord, zCoord - 1);
		}
	}
	else
	{
		System.out.println("So remote");
	}
}

 

What I'm asking is how could I get it to run on the server as well?

[coolAlias]

Well, that's not a vanilla method, so you just have to make sure wherever you call it from is on the server.

updateEntity?

And I've noticed that somethings that require the server aren't working, like the device count when you right click a bus, guis, physics...

in my testing enviro that is

Did you register your tile entity?

GameRegistry.registerTileEntity(YourTileEntityClass.class, "yourTileEntityName");

[KeeganDeathman]

Yep. Checked that.

I have the code on github, and I think I may have fixed it, but have doing one server side thing, it lags out and server stops happening.
