Posted June 15, 201510 yr I want to output some string to the chat. I have always used Minecraft#getMinecraft()#thePlayer#sendChatMessage(Stuff) to do so. But recently, after some error happened, and I got help on here, I realise that chunk of code may cause error in the Server. So what should I do to output something onto the chat?
June 15, 201510 yr From where? To send message you need to just have player instance. For client messages you get it from Minecraf.class, for multiplayer you need to somehow get it (player) - and how to do it depends on where you want to call method from. 1.7.10 is no longer supported by forge, you are on your own.
June 15, 201510 yr Author So, I found EntityPlayer#addChatComponentMessage() and EntityPlayer#addChatMessage(); Need help on that.
June 15, 201510 yr Dude, learn java a LITTLE better. Simply put IChatComponent as argument. There are several different components, for simplt text you have ChatComponentText (yes, declare new). 1.7.10 is no longer supported by forge, you are on your own.
June 15, 201510 yr Author The main thing is that I dont know which Forge classes implements IChatComponent
June 15, 201510 yr Then learn to use your IDE Ever heard about Type Hierarchy? (Tip: learn more java). Besides, I literally told you exact class name. 1.7.10 is no longer supported by forge, you are on your own.
June 15, 201510 yr Author Yeah.... I know how to use "instanceof" know how to use "extends" know how to use"abstract"... But then you just said that "for simplt text you have ChatComponentText". Then is there any "complex" types?
June 15, 201510 yr "I know how to write, that doesn't mean I write smart stuff." Not to be mean (I am kind person) but i have no idea what: Yeah.... I know how to use "instanceof" know how to use "extends" know how to use"abstract"... ...has anything to do with IDE and "Type Hierarchy" in means of what I was talking about. There are 4 implementations of IChatComponent. Their names are pretty much self-exp and allow different formatting. 1.7.10 is no longer supported by forge, you are on your own.
June 15, 201510 yr Dude, what IDE are you using? There is no "looking" and "finding" here. You jsut click "Type Hierarchy" and you got them all listed. 1.7.10 is no longer supported by forge, you are on your own.
