[1.8] [SOLVED]Display GUI when interacting with an entity

[Brickfix]

Hi,

I am trying to make a GUI for Entities, so the GUI shall display when I interact with the NPC.

My question is, what would be the simplest way to do this?

 

Should I let my use the Interface IMerchant for my villager or rather the IInteractionObject?

Or does forge come with an even easier method?

 

Thanks in advance

I'm not sure I understand what you want. Do you want to open a GUI when you right click a villager? If so, EntityInteractEvent could work. Just check whether the player's target is your villager. Then open your GUI.

Wups, I just see my explanation wasn't the best

 

I have a custom Entity, an NPC. When rightclicked, I want it to display a GUI and add a way to communicate with the NPC, get Quests etc. . The only problem is that, other than with blocks, most GUIs seem to be hardcoded when it comes to players:

 

player.displayGUIHorse()
player.displayGUIBook()
player.disiplayGUIChest()

 

Those functions above are very specific and don't give me what I would like to do.

 

The two functions I consider tapping into are either:

 

player.displayGUI()
player.displayVillageTraderGUI()

 

The first one requires IInteractionObject as parameter,

the second one the IMerchant interface implemented in my Entity.

I wonder, which was is easier to do? Or is there one of the two ways not even possible?

 

Thanks again for any response (:

player.openGui(...)

So I am trying this, but without any success...

 

I implemented IInteractionObject in the NPCs class, created the GUI, the Container, a GuiHandler, registered it in the modfile, and so on. But unfortunatly my GUI still doesn't open. Could somebody look over my code?

 

Possible problems could be the GuiHandler, or the @Override functions that came with the implementation of IInteractionObject into the NPCs class, I might have done something wrong...

For a container Gui you should be using openGui() not displayGui(). The displayGui() doesn't do any of the container stuff.

Ok thanks, I figured it out
