[1.8] [90% SOLVED] Cannot Interact With CustomFire E.G. Hit to Extinguish

KeyBinding#unpressKey() is private, so you should use reflection to get reach to it.

saxon564 · May 7, 2015

KeyBinding#unpressKey() is private, so you should use reflection to get reach to it.

I will admit, I have never looked into reflection before and have no idea how to do it. So far what I have found about it, shows, but doesnt really explain really well.

coolAlias · May 7, 2015

You can also check KeyBinding#isPressed() to see if the key was pressed - this will decrement the pressed value (which should only have been at 1 since it was just pressed), then unset it with setKeyBindState as you were doing.

Another thing to keep in mind is that the KeyInputEvent fires TWICE for each key press: once when the key is pressed (that's the one you want to intercept), and once again when it is released. Use Keyboard#getEventKeyState to check which state (press or release) the key is in.

The trouble, I think, may be that KeyInputEvent, since it is not designed to be cancelable, fires too late to stop the client's action from sending a packet to the server, and when that packet is received, it no longer cares about the state of any client-side input. You may have to take some more drastic measures and attempt to intercept this packet, or just call it 'good enough' to expect most users to be using the LMB (mouse) to attack, and cancel the MouseEvent when appropriate.

At least that way, you can move on to other things, then come back to this issue if users of your mod complain about it (very few people don't use the mouse, but they do exist...).

saxon564 · May 7, 2015

I do have it setup to run when the key is pressed and not released.

EDIT: I set it up so that if someone is using a keyboard press to try to get rid of the block it will say "Please contact saxon564 if you are trying to put out a fire using a key on your keyboard as your attack key." This will help show me how many people actually use their keyboard.

Now I just need to get the packet sending all figured out and get the mouse input to run on the server.

Now I just need to get the packet sending all figured out and get the mouse input to run on the server.

Why do you need mouse input on the server? Or do you mean you need to send a packet to put out the flame? Not quite the same thing

saxon564 · May 7, 2015

I meant to send the packet, which with the wording I used would still technically be correct, but its all on interpretation there.

EDIT:

I have gotten everything working right with the mouse. You can see the final code here for the event handler and here for the packet management

EDIT2: I have determined, the only way this would work all around would be using the PlayerInteractEvent, but I would have to translate it to a client event and send it as a packet to the client to cancel it. Just some final thoughts about it. Im probably just going to stick with what I already have for now.

Here's my code:

package common.zeroquest.events;

	int button = event.button;

	World world = Minecraft.getMinecraft().theWorld;

	BlockPos pos = Minecraft.getMinecraft().objectMouseOver.getBlockPos();
	EnumFacing face = Minecraft.getMinecraft().objectMouseOver.sideHit;

	if (button == 0) {
		if (world.getBlockState(pos).getBlock() != null) {
			this.extinguishFire(player, pos, face, world, event);
		}
	}
}

@SubscribeEvent
public void onPlayerMovement(PlayerTickEvent event) {
	EntityPlayer player = event.player;

	}

	else if (((block == ModBlocks.darkFire) || (world.getBlockState(pos.up()).getBlock() == ModBlocks.darkFire)) && (!player.capabilities.isCreativeMode)) {

	}
}

private void extinguishFire(EntityPlayer player, BlockPos pos, EnumFacing face, World world, MouseEvent event) {
	pos = pos.offset(face);

        int i = pos.getX();
        int j = pos.getY();
        int k = pos.getZ();
	if (world.getBlockState(pos).getBlock() == ModBlocks.nileFire) {
            world.playSoundEffect((double)((float)i + 0.5F), (double)((float)j + 0.5F), (double)((float)k + 0.5F), "random.fizz", 0.5F, 2.6F + (world.rand.nextFloat() - world.rand.nextFloat()) * 0.8F);
		world.setBlockToAir(pos);
		event.setCanceled(true);
	}
	else if (world.getBlockState(pos).getBlock() == ModBlocks.darkFire) {
            world.playSoundEffect((double)((float)i + 0.5F), (double)((float)j + 0.5F), (double)((float)k + 0.5F), "random.fizz", 0.5F, 2.6F + (world.rand.nextFloat() - world.rand.nextFloat()) * 0.8F);
		world.setBlockToAir(pos);
		event.setCanceled(true);
	}

}
}

Everything you have there is only happening on the client that did the action. the server does not update the block.

EDIT: You also need to check for pos to be null, because if you hit an entity, pos is null and it will crash.

NovaViper · May 8, 2015

How do I fix it were to make it not null?

saxon564 · May 8, 2015

if (pos != null)

you just check it before you check for a block.

NovaViper · May 8, 2015

	int button = event.button;
	EntityPlayer player = Minecraft.getMinecraft().thePlayer;
	World world = Minecraft.getMinecraft().theWorld;

	BlockPos pos = Minecraft.getMinecraft().objectMouseOver.getBlockPos();
	EnumFacing face = Minecraft.getMinecraft().objectMouseOver.sideHit;

	if (button == 0) {
		if (world.getBlockState(pos).getBlock() != null) {
			this.extinguishFire(player, pos, face, world, event);
		}
	}
}

			player.setFire(;
		}

		else if (((block == ModBlocks.darkFire) || (world.getBlockState(pos.up()).getBlock() == ModBlocks.darkFire)) && (!player.capabilities.isCreativeMode)) {
			player.setFire(;
		}
	}
}

private void extinguishFire(EntityPlayer player, BlockPos pos, EnumFacing face, World world, MouseEvent event) {
	pos = pos.offset(face);

	int i = pos.getX();
	int j = pos.getY();
	int k = pos.getZ();
	if (pos != null) {
		if (world.getBlockState(pos).getBlock() == ModBlocks.nileFire) {
			world.playSoundEffect(i + 0.5F, j + 0.5F, k + 0.5F, "random.fizz", 0.5F, 2.6F + (world.rand.nextFloat() - world.rand.nextFloat()) * 0.8F);
			world.setBlockToAir(pos);
			event.setCanceled(true);
		}
		else if (world.getBlockState(pos).getBlock() == ModBlocks.darkFire) {
			world.playSoundEffect(i + 0.5F, j + 0.5F, k + 0.5F, "random.fizz", 0.5F, 2.6F + (world.rand.nextFloat() - world.rand.nextFloat()) * 0.8F);
			world.setBlockToAir(pos);
			event.setCanceled(true);
		}
	}

}
}

I'm still not hearing the fizz sfx when I extinguish the fire

saxon564 · May 8, 2015

For pos check it in the MouseEvent, thats where it has a possibility to be null, as for the fizz, you have to use packets to send the information to the server, on the server is when you play the fizz sound. You can look at my github for how I did it.

Still not working

NovaViper · May 8, 2015

Oh also, I'm not getting set on fire when I step on the fire

saxon564 · May 8, 2015

take a look at my network proxy

here:

https://github.com/saxon564/MoChickens/blob/Dev/src/main/java/com/saxon564/mochickens/network/FireMessage.java

and my event handler here:

https://github.com/saxon564/MoChickens/blob/Dev/src/main/java/com/saxon564/mochickens/events/FireEventHandler.java

You should cross check it with your code.

NovaViper · May 8, 2015

Thanks! that works on my client now.. but what about the server?

saxon564 · May 9, 2015

If you're setting the block to air on the server and playing the sound in your Packet class, as well as canceling the event in your event handler, you're done. That's all you need to do, it will work on both server and client.

NovaViper · May 9, 2015

Thanks!

saxon564 · May 9, 2015

meant to say, setting the block to air and playing the sound in your packet class. just to clarify where the server code gets run.

SteveKunG · May 9, 2015

Hi. I saw this thread. In World.java on line 2430

Changing if (this.getBlockState(pos).getBlock() == Blocks.fire) >> if (this.getBlockState(pos).getBlock() instanceof net.minecraft.block.BlockFire)

I think should be fix with another mod. And no conflict (Maybe. -.-)

That would be a simple solution, yes. But there is no reason you should ever edit a base class. If you find yourself trying to edit a base class to do something, then you need a core mod. If you dont know how to make a core mod, then you should just stop trying what you are doing and go learn how to, or ask if there is another way to accomplish it.
