I have subscribed to the ServerChatEvent and am searching the inventory for an item but the entire inventory appears to be empty. I can provide code if necessary but do not see how my code could have created this problem (for testing all I'm doing is looping through the inventory and printing to the console if an itemstack position is not null).

 

Thanks in advance

I would recommend posting your code, you may have made a mistake somewhere without realising it.

You're probably right, just didn't want to have to load another browser.

 

Event Handler

public class SCEventHandler
{

    @SubscribeEvent
    public void HandleServerChat(ServerChatEvent event)
    {
        System.out.println("Running HandleServerChat");
        ItemStack[] inventory = event.player.getInventory();
        System.out.println(inventory);
        boolean hasMufflingCrystal = false;
        for (int i = 0; i < inventory.length; i++)
        {
            ItemStack item = inventory[i];
            if (item != null )//&& item.getItem() instanceof ItemCrystal && item.getItemDamage() == SCNames.Items.CRYSTAL.length - 1)
            {
                System.out.println("item exists");
                hasMufflingCrystal = true;
            }
            if (hasMufflingCrystal)
                break;
        }
        if (hasMufflingCrystal)
        {
            System.out.println("Cancelling event");
            event.setCanceled(true);
        }
    }
}

 

Mod Class (part)

    @EventHandler
    public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event)
    {
        MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register(new SCEventHandler());

        SCItems.initItems();
        SCBlocks.initBlocks();
        SCTileEntities.initTileEntities();

        if(event.getSide() == Side.CLIENT)
        {
            SCItems.initTextures();
        }
    }

If you look at the implementation of

EntityPlayer#getInventory

, you'll see that it actually returns the player's armour inventory rather than their main inventory. Use

EntityPlayer#inventory

or

PlayerMainInvWrapper

.

 

In 1.9.4+, call

ICapabilityProvider#getCapability

on an

EntityPlayer

with

CapabilityItemHandler.ITEM_HANDLER_CAPABILITY

and a vertical

EnumFacing

to get an

IItemHandler

wrapper of their main inventory or a

null

EnumFacing

to get an

IItemHandler

wrapper of their whole inventory (main, armour and off hand).

Oh, my fault for expecting names to make sense. Thanks.

If it's any consolation, the method doesn't exist in 1.9+.
