[SOLVED] TileEntity not updating on Server Side

Posted July 29, 20169 yr

Hello and may I start off saying this is really weird and I have never seen anything like this. I have made TileEntities before, and never ran into this problem.

I have other TileEntities that are being called on the server.

This is the updateEntity method in the TileEntity.

        @Override
public void updateEntity() {
	System.out.println("Server Ticking Solar Generator");
}

This is my whole Block class.

package com.anime.wirelessrevolution.blocks.generators;

import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.tileentity.energy.gen.TileEntitySolarGenerator;

import net.minecraft.block.BlockContainer;
import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;
import net.minecraft.tileentity.TileEntity;
import net.minecraft.world.World;

public class SolarGenerator extends BlockContainer {

public SolarGenerator() {
	super(Material.iron);
	this.setHarvestLevel("pickaxe", 0);
}

@Override
public TileEntity createNewTileEntity(World world, int p_149915_2_) {
	if (!world.isRemote)
		System.out.println("Creating a new instance and world is not remote.");
	return new TileEntitySolarGenerator();
}

}

This is my TileEntity Registry.

package com.anime.wirelessrevolution;

import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.tileentity.energy.gen.TileEntitySolarGenerator;
import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.tileentity.energy.machine.TileEntityEnergeticFurnace;
import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.tileentity.energy.routers.TileEntityBasicRouter;
import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.tileentity.research.TileEntityTinkeringTable;
import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.util.RegistryHelper;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.GameRegistry;

public class TileEntities {

public static void register() {
	/** Standard TileEntities **/
	RegistryHelper.registerTleEntity(TileEntityTinkeringTable.class);

	/** Electric Routers **/
	RegistryHelper.registerTleEntity(TileEntityBasicRouter.class);

	/** Electric Generators **/
	GameRegistry.registerTileEntity(TileEntitySolarGenerator.class, "tileEntitySolarPanel");
//		RegistryHelper.registerTleEntity(TileEntitySolarGenerator.class);

	/** Electrical Machines **/
	RegistryHelper.registerTleEntity(TileEntityEnergeticFurnace.class);

}

}

This is my main class

package com.anime.wirelessrevolution;

import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.inventory.gui.GUIBookResources;
import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.oredictionary.OreDict;
import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.proxy.GUIHandler;
import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.proxy.ServerProxy;
import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.util.ConfigHandler;
import com.anime.wirelessrevolution.util.CraftingHelper;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.EventHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.Mod.Instance;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.SidedProxy;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLPostInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.event.FMLPreInitializationEvent;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.NetworkRegistry;

@Mod(modid = WirelessRevolution.MODID, version = WirelessRevolution.VERSION, name = WirelessRevolution.NAME)
public class WirelessRevolution {

public static final String MODID = "wirelessrevolution", VERSION = "1.0 ALPHA", NAME = "Wireless Revolution";

@Instance
public static  WirelessRevolution instance = new WirelessRevolution();

@SidedProxy(clientSide = "com.anime.wirelessrevolution.proxy.ClientProxy", serverSide = "com.anime.wirelessrevolution.proxy.ServerProxy")
public static ServerProxy proxy = new ServerProxy();

public static GUIHandler guiHandler;

@EventHandler
public void preInit(FMLPreInitializationEvent event) {
	ConfigHandler.init(event);
	Items.init();
	Blocks.init();
	Items.register();
	Blocks.register();
}

@EventHandler
public void Init(FMLInitializationEvent event) {
	CraftingHelper.registerCrafting();
	TileEntities.register();
	OreDict.registerOreDictionary();
	proxy.registerRender();
	FMLCommonHandler.instance().bus().register(new com.anime.wirelessrevolution.events.EventHandler());
	NetworkRegistry.INSTANCE.registerGuiHandler(instance, guiHandler = new GUIHandler());
}

@EventHandler
public void postInit(FMLPostInitializationEvent event) {
	GUIBookResources.init();
}

}

This is the Log from my dev environment from when createNewTileEntity was called until I paused the game to look at the log.

Any help would be apreciated and I am using forge 1.7.10-10.13.4.1614. I am using 1.7.10 because alot of mods aren't updated and I do plan on updating after "finishing" it.

Thank you for your help Diesieben I plan on updating, sorry for still using 1.7.10. I switched over to the normal Block class and set hasTileEntity to true and changed the createNewTileEntity to createTileEntity. This just caused the update method to never get called. Yes I know that tileEntitySolarPanel is a terrible name, but it was only to test if there was a problem with my methed RegistryHelper.registerTileEntity (which is just a loop into GameRegistry.registerTileEntity).

The reason I have the loop in is so I don't have to type GameRegistry.registerTileEntity(TileEntity.class, Main.MODID + ":tileEntity")

New Updated Block Class

import net.minecraft.world.World;

public class SolarGenerator extends Block {

public SolarGenerator() {
	super(Material.iron);
	this.isBlockContainer = true;
	this.setHarvestLevel("pickaxe", 0);
}

@Override
public TileEntity createTileEntity(World world, int p_149915_2_) {
	if (!world.isRemote)
		System.out.println("Creating a new instance and world is not remote.");
	return new TileEntitySolarGenerator();
}

@Override
public boolean hasTileEntity() {
	return true;
}

}

edit I added this.isBlockContainer = true after testing without it.

Aright thank you that kinda irritated me, but my mistake. It worked when I went back to implementing ITileEntityProvider BTW. It seems it is required to even have a TileEntity in 1.7, not sure about other versions, but good catch and Thank you again. Oh and adding this.isBlockContainer = true did not crash me.

[1.21.3] How to add effects to food?

game changed the way you create foods.
for example minecraft 1.21.8 code for the golden apple is

Foods.java
public static final FoodProperties GOLDEN_APPLE = new FoodProperties.Builder().nutrition(4).saturationModifier(1.2F).alwaysEdible().build();

Items.java
public static final Item GOLDEN_APPLE = registerItem("golden_apple", new Item.Properties().food(Foods.GOLDEN_APPLE, Consumables.GOLDEN_APPLE));

Consumables.java
public static final Consumable GOLDEN_APPLE = defaultFood() .onConsume( new ApplyStatusEffectsConsumeEffect( List.of(new MobEffectInstance(MobEffects.REGENERATION, 100, 1), new MobEffectInstance(MobEffects.ABSORPTION, 2400, 0)) ) )

How to add my mob to another mod's biome in 1.20.1.

You can add mob spawns using Forge's Biome Modifiers feature. I won't go into details on how to use a data generator for them, but here's a simple example:
{ "type": "forge:add_spawns", // Required "biomes": "#namespace:biome_tag", // Accepts a biome id, [list of biome ids], or #namespace:biome_tag "spawners": { "type": "namespace:entity_type", // Type of mob to spawn "weight": 100, // int, spawn weighting "minCount": 1, // int, minimum pack size "maxCount": 4 // int, maximum pack size } }This JSON file would go somewhere like this: data/modid/forge/biome_modifier/your_biome_modifier.json
