[1.11] Overlay returning null.

[Lambda]

Hey there..

 

So I have this overlay that displays my energy, however, I have created an interface, when combined with a TE, will display the 'Void Flux' of that chunk, however for some reason it seems that the interface returns null, even though I've done the same thing for the energy, and it seems to work..

 

Here is the overlay event class:

    @SubscribeEvent
    public void onGameOverlay(RenderGameOverlayEvent.Post event){
        if(event.getType() == RenderGameOverlayEvent.ElementType.ALL && Minecraft.getMinecraft().currentScreen == null){
            Minecraft minecraft = Minecraft.getMinecraft();
            EntityPlayer player = minecraft.player;
            RayTraceResult posHit = minecraft.objectMouseOver;
            FontRenderer font = minecraft.fontRendererObj;
            ItemStack stack = player.getHeldItemMainhand();

            if(StackUtil.isValid(stack)){
                if(stack.getItem() instanceof IHudDisplay){
                    ((IHudDisplay)stack.getItem()).displayHud(minecraft, player, stack, posHit, event.getResolution());
                }
            }

            if(posHit != null && posHit.getBlockPos() != null){
                Block blockHit = minecraft.world.getBlockState(posHit.getBlockPos()).getBlock();
                TileEntity tileHit = minecraft.world.getTileEntity(posHit.getBlockPos());

                if(blockHit instanceof IHudDisplay){
                    ((IHudDisplay)blockHit).displayHud(minecraft, player, stack, posHit, event.getResolution());
                }

                if(tileHit instanceof TileEntityBase){
                    TileEntityBase base = (TileEntityBase)tileHit;
                    if(base.isRedstoneToggle()){
                        String strg = "Activation Mode: "+ TextFormatting.DARK_RED+(base.isPulseMode ? "Pulse" : "Deactivation")+TextFormatting.RESET;
                        font.drawStringWithShadow(strg, event.getResolution().getScaledWidth()/2+5, event.getResolution().getScaledHeight()/2+5, StringUtil.DECIMAL_COLOR_WHITE);

                        String expl;
                        if(StackUtil.isValid(stack) && stack.getItem() == InitItems.itemJAWrench){
                            expl = TextFormatting.GREEN+"Right-Click to adjust!";
                        }
                        else{
                            expl = TextFormatting.GRAY.toString()+TextFormatting.ITALIC+"Hold a " + TextFormatting.BLUE + "Wrench " + TextFormatting.GRAY + " to Adjust";
                        }
                        font.drawStringWithShadow(expl, event.getResolution().getScaledWidth()/2+5, event.getResolution().getScaledHeight()/2+15, StringUtil.DECIMAL_COLOR_WHITE);
                    }
                }

                if(tileHit instanceof IEnergyDisplay){
                    IEnergyDisplay display = (IEnergyDisplay)tileHit;
                    if(!display.needsHoldShift() || player.isSneaking()){
                        if(energyDisplay == null){
                            energyDisplay = new EnergyDisplay(0, 0, null);
                        }
                        energyDisplay.setData(2, event.getResolution().getScaledHeight()-96, display.getEnergyStorage(), true, true);

                        GlStateManager.pushMatrix();
                        GlStateManager.color(1F, 1F, 1F, 1F);
                        energyDisplay.draw();
                        GlStateManager.popMatrix();
                    }
                }

                if(tileHit instanceof IVoidEnergyUser) {
                    IVoidEnergyUser voidEnergy = (IVoidEnergyUser) tileHit;
                    if(!player.isSneaking()) {
                        System.out.println("displays");
                        if(voidEnergy.getVoidEnergy() != null) {
                            System.out.println("Does not displays");
                            minecraft.fontRendererObj.drawStringWithShadow("Void Flux: " + voidEnergy.getVoidEnergy().getEnergyStored(), event.getResolution().getScaledWidth()/2+5, event.getResolution().getScaledHeight()/2+15, StringUtil.DECIMAL_COLOR_WHITE);
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }

 

in particular:

 

   if(tileHit instanceof IVoidEnergyUser) {
                    IVoidEnergyUser voidEnergy = (IVoidEnergyUser) tileHit;
                    if(!player.isSneaking()) {
                        System.out.println("displays");
                        if(voidEnergy.getVoidEnergy() != null) {
                            System.out.println("Does not displays");
                            minecraft.fontRendererObj.drawStringWithShadow("Void Flux: " + voidEnergy.getVoidEnergy().getEnergyStored(), event.getResolution().getScaledWidth()/2+5, event.getResolution().getScaledHeight()/2+15, StringUtil.DECIMAL_COLOR_WHITE);
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }

 

Also, the IVoidEnergyUser:

public interface IVoidEnergyUser {

    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    IVoidEnergy getVoidEnergy();
}

 

Lastly, the TE:

public IVoidEnergy voidStorage;

    public TileEntityVoidPump() {
        super("geothermicPump");
    }


   @Override
    public void updateEntity() {
        super.updateEntity();
        if(!world.isRemote) {
            if (player != null) {
                tick++;

                if(voidStorage == null) {
                    final Chunk chunk = world.getChunkFromBlockCoords(this.getPos());
                    final ChunkPos chunkPos = chunk.getPos();
                    this.voidStorage = CapabilityVoidEnergy.getVoidEnergyFromChunk(world, chunkPos);
                }

                if(voidStorage != null) {
                    if(tick >= 10) {
                        if(!hasDug) {
                            digDownOperation();
                        }else {
                            renderLaserToEndPoint(this.getPos().getX(), -15, this.getPos().getZ());
                            verifyScafolding();
                            if(rand.nextInt(5) == 0) {
                                voidStorage.extractEnergy(rand.nextInt(2), false);
                            }
                            storage.receiveEnergyInternal(PRODUCE, false);
                        }
                        tick=0;
                    }
                }else {
                    ModUtil.LOGGER.warn("A Player tried interacting with a null chunk! Restart your world!");
                }
            }else if(uuid != null){
                this.player = getPlayerFromUUID(uuid);
            }
            if(uuid == null & player != null) {
                setUuid(player.getUniqueID());
            }
            if(player == null && uuid == null) {
                ModUtil.LOGGER.warn("No player or UUID was saved! A player must replace the Geothermic Pump @ x: " + pos.getX() + " y: " + pos.getY() + " z: " + pos.getZ());
            }

            if(this.oldEnergy != this.storage.getEnergyStored() || this.oldVoid != this.voidStorage.getEnergyStored() && this.sendUpdateWithInterval()){
                this.oldEnergy = this.storage.getEnergyStored();
                this.oldVoid = this.voidStorage.getEnergyStored();
            }
        }
    }

    public void digDownOperation() {
        if (blockToBreak == null || (blockToBreak.getX() == 0 && blockToBreak.getY() == 0 && blockToBreak.getZ() == 0)) {
            blockToBreak = new BlockPos(this.getPos().getX(), this.getPos().getY() - 1, this.getPos().getZ());
        }else {
            IBlockState block = world.getBlockState(blockToBreak);
            if(block.getBlock() == Blocks.AIR) {
                world.setBlockState(blockToBreak, InitBlocks.blockScafolding.getDefaultState());
                blockToBreak = blockToBreak.down();
            }else if(!(block.getBlock() instanceof BlockContainer)) {
                renderStaticEffect(EnumParticleTypes.END_ROD, blockToBreak.getX(), blockToBreak.getY(), blockToBreak.getZ());
                world.destroyBlock(blockToBreak, false);
            }else {
                renderStaticEffect(EnumParticleTypes.SMOKE_NORMAL, this.getPos().getX(), this.getPos().getY()+.5, this.getPos().getZ());
            }
        }

        if(blockToBreak.getY() <= 0) {
            hasDug = true;
        }
    }

    @Override
    public IVoidEnergy getVoidEnergy() {
        if(voidStorage != null) {
            return voidStorage;
        }else {
            return null;
        }
    }

Are you getting an error? Exactly where is null being returned, and how do you know?

[Lambda]

No, the System.outs on the overlay:

(these lines)

 

 

   if(tileHit instanceof IVoidEnergyUser) {
                    IVoidEnergyUser voidEnergy = (IVoidEnergyUser) tileHit;
                    if(!player.isSneaking()) {
                        System.out.println("displays");
                        if(voidEnergy.getVoidEnergy() != null) {
                            System.out.println("Does not displays");
                            minecraft.fontRendererObj.drawStringWithShadow("Void Flux: " + voidEnergy.getVoidEnergy().getEnergyStored(), event.getResolution().getScaledWidth()/2+5, event.getResolution().getScaledHeight()/2+15, StringUtil.DECIMAL_COLOR_WHITE);
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }

 

 

the one that says displays works, however the other one doesnt run at all, which tells me the if state about is false.

So, presumably

voidEnergy

is null when the method is getting called. Use printlns or the debugger to check whether it is being initialised as it should be. What exactly does

CapabilityVoidEnergy.getVoidEnergyFromChunk(world, chunkPos)

do - is it returning null?
