Posted April 23, 201510 yr Hi. I would like to know how to make custom events. I know in bukkit you had to extend Event and then call the event wherever you wanted. Is this the same with forge?
April 23, 201510 yr You extend Event and post it to the bus. Which bus is up to you, but at least pick one that makes sense. Don't put an update event on the ore gen bus, for example. Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
April 23, 201510 yr Ok thanks. And when the event is supposed to happen, how do I call it? Event ev = new MyCustomEvent(); theEventBus.post(ev); Where theEventBus is a reference to an event bus (as there are several), eg. MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.post(ev), and you can even write your own if you feel the need, it's basically just a priority-sorted list of the listener functions which are called in order when post() is executed.
