programming player's moves and actions

[takaczapka]

Hello there,

 

I've started modding a couple weeks ago, mainly as the way to teach kids programming.

 

I would like to create an "action command" mod which makes player to start moving and executing some actions. For example:

/move 5      - should make the player moving 5 steps forward

/dig 3          - should make the player to start digging if there are "diggable" blocks in front of him

/moveOrDig 10    - move 10 steps and dig if necessary

 

The case that Forge seems to be able only handle game events (or at least I couldn't find anything with which I could "program" a player moves). I don't want simply to teleport a player. I want say "move 10" and the player moves ten steps forward like in a normal game cycle but without me touching on a keyboard or a mouse.

 

Is this even possible? Any suggestions and ideas highly welcomed!

 

Thank you,

Maciej

You can achieve this by emulating key presses from

ClientTickEvent

(you'll probably want the

PRE

phase).

 

Call

KeyBinding.onTick

with a key code to press that key for one tick.

KeyBinding#getKeyCode

returns the key code of a key binding, vanilla key bindings are stored in the

GameSettings

instance (the

Minecraft#gameSettings

field).

Hi!

 

I am currently working on something really similar to what you described. Have you progressed on that matter?
