[1.9] [SOLVED] TileEntity Server -> Client packet missing?

[BlackSpark]

Hello all,

 

I've been trying to make my first mod, and wish to have a

TileEntity 

to store extra data about a block. When looking at all sorts of tutorials about TileEntities (most for 1.8.x), they make

getDescriptionPacket

return a

S35PacketUpdateTileEntity

-- however, this type/class is not found, and I can't find any information for 1.9.

 

Here is my code:

    override def readFromNBT(tag: NBTTagCompound): Unit =
    {
        super.readFromNBT(tag)
        maxPower = tag.getLong("maxPower")
        maxOutput = tag.getInteger("maxOutput")
        powerContained = tag.getDouble("currentPower")
        currentOutput = tag.getInteger("currentOutput")
    }

    override def writeToNBT(tag: NBTTagCompound): Unit =
    {
        tag.setLong("maxPower", maxPower)
        tag.setInteger("maxOutput", maxOutput)
        tag.setDouble("currentPower", powerContained)
        tag.setInteger("currentOutput", currentOutput)
        super.writeToNBT(tag)
    }

    override def shouldRefresh(world: World, pos: BlockPos, oldState: IBlockState, newState: IBlockState): Boolean =
    {
        oldState.getBlock != newState.getBlock
    }

    @SideOnly(Side.SERVER)
    override def getDescriptionPacket: Packet =
    {
        val tag: NBTTagCompound = new NBTTagCompound
        writeToNBT(tag)
        new S35PacketUpdateTileEntity(xCoord, yCoord, zCoord, 1, tag)    // Error here, symbol not found
    }

 

What should I use to synchronize

TileEntity

data with Forge 1.9?

 

Thanks in advance!

Look at the vanilla

TileEntity

classes, the packet has been renamed to

SPacketUpdateTileEntity

.

 

LexManos decided to remove the packet ID from the packet class names in 1.9, you can see the reasoning here. This issue tracker also records most other 1.8.9 to 1.9 renames.

That solved the issue -- thanks!
