[1.10.2] TE rendering update

[Janellope]

I made a pedestal, you right click items on and off of it, or shift right click to open the gui. most of it works fine except when you right click an item off the pedestal it still renders there until you log out or open the gui. I am at a loss as to what to do.

You need to sync the inventory using markDirty() meaning call markDirty() after removing/adding the item.

public void setStack(ItemStack stack) 
{
        this.stack = stack;
        this.markDirty();
        if (worldObj != null)
        {
            IBlockState state = worldObj.getBlockState(getPos());
            worldObj.notifyBlockUpdate(getPos(), state, state, 3);
        }    
    }

 

Is it suppose to be somewhere else? because it doesn't work.

Did you override getUpdatePacket(...) and handleUpdatePacket(...) or something like that.

[Janellope]

Is this what you mean?

    @Override
    public SPacketUpdateTileEntity getUpdatePacket()
    {
        NBTTagCompound nbtTag = new NBTTagCompound();
        this.writeToNBT(nbtTag);
        return new SPacketUpdateTileEntity(getPos(), 1, nbtTag);
    }

    @Override
    public void onDataPacket(NetworkManager net, SPacketUpdateTileEntity packet)
    {
        this.readFromNBT(packet.getNbtCompound());
    }

Hi

 

I don't see an obvious problem; have you tried placing breakpoints in your getUpdatePacket() to see if it's being called properly

 

You could try comparing your code to this example project

https://github.com/TheGreyGhost/MinecraftByExample

 

MBE30 and MBE31 are two working examples which sound similar to what you're doing.

I've been trying to figure this out for a while, the proper way of calling a TileEntity sync. I knew how to do it back in 1.8 by calling markBlockForUpdate(BlockPos) and markDirty() which would immediately trigger a call to getDescriptionPacket(). After removal of the first function I don't know how to do it any more as calling markDirty() alone doesn't seem to do anything or am I missing something... Does anyone know how we're suppose to do it in 1.10?

Call

World#notifyBlockUpdate

on the server to send the

TileEntity

's update packet and re-render the chunk containing it.

Do I actually need to provide two different BlockStates? I would like to call an instant entity sync without actually changing the BlockState. And what about the flags, any idea what I should enter there?

No, the two

IBlockState

arguments can be (and usually are) the same.

The flags are completely ignored by

ServerWorldEventHandler

(the server-side

IWorldEventListener

instance).
