I would like my custom sound played to the player who right clicks this item. I have the sound set up and registered correctly because if I use /playsound, it works perfectly.

Here is the code for the item that I want the sound to be played on when right-clicked:

package ocraftyone.MoreEverything.items;

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.entity.Entity;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.init.SoundEvents;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraft.nbt.NBTTagCompound;
import net.minecraft.util.ActionResult;
import net.minecraft.util.EnumHand;
import net.minecraft.util.SoundCategory;
import net.minecraft.util.math.BlockPos;
import net.minecraft.util.text.TextComponentString;
import net.minecraft.world.World;
import ocraftyone.MoreEverything.handlers.ModSoundHandler;
import ocraftyone.MoreEverything.init.ModItemBasic;

public class ItemHome extends ModItemBasic {

	public ItemHome(String name, CreativeTabs tab) {
		super(name, tab);
		this.setMaxStackSize(1);
	}

	@Override
	public void onUpdate(ItemStack stack, World worldIn, Entity entityIn, int itemSlot, boolean isSelected) {
		if(stack.getTagCompound() == null) {
			stack.setTagCompound(new NBTTagCompound());
			stack.getTagCompound().setBoolean("homeSet", false);
		}	
	}
	
	@Override
	public ActionResult<ItemStack> onItemRightClick(World worldIn, EntityPlayer playerIn, EnumHand handIn) {
		ItemStack itemStack = playerIn.getHeldItem(handIn); 
		if(!worldIn.isRemote) {
			NBTTagCompound nbt = itemStack.getTagCompound();
		if(playerIn.isSneaking()) {
			nbt.setInteger("xpos", playerIn.getPosition().getX());
			nbt.setInteger("ypos", playerIn.getPosition().getY());
			nbt.setInteger("zpos", playerIn.getPosition().getZ());
			nbt.setInteger("dim", playerIn.dimension);
			nbt.setString("playerName", playerIn.getName());
			nbt.setBoolean("homeSet", true);
			playerIn.sendMessage(new TextComponentString("Succesfully set home! Bound to " + playerIn.getName() + "."));
		}else {
		if(nbt.getBoolean("homeSet") == true) {
			if(playerIn.getName() == nbt.getString("playerName")) {
				if(nbt.getInteger("dim") != playerIn.dimension) {
					playerIn.changeDimension(nbt.getInteger("dim"));
					playerIn.attemptTeleport(nbt.getInteger("xpos"), nbt.getInteger("ypos"), nbt.getInteger("zpos"));
					playerIn.playSound(ModSoundHandler.DOORBELL, 1.01F, 1.0F);
				} else {
					playerIn.attemptTeleport(nbt.getInteger("xpos"), nbt.getInteger("ypos"), nbt.getInteger("zpos"));
					playerIn.playSound(ModSoundHandler.DOORBELL, 1.0F, 1.0F);
					//worldIn.playSound(playerIn, playerIn.getPosition(), ModSoundHandler.DOORBELL, SoundCategory.PLAYERS, 1.0F, 1.0F);
				}
				}else {
					playerIn.sendMessage(new TextComponentString("You can not use another person's home item! (Owner: " + nbt.getString("playerName") + ")"));
				}
		}else {
					playerIn.sendMessage(new TextComponentString("Invalid home!"));
				}
			}
		}
		
		return super.onItemRightClick(worldIn, playerIn, handIn);
	} 
}

I have also heard in another post to cast EntityPlayerSP, but I could not get that to work:

What they wanted me to do:

//Cast EntityPlayer to EntityPlayerSP
EntityPlayerSP playerSP = (EntityPlayerSP) playerIn;
//Play sound to EntityPlayerSP
playerSP.playSound(ModSoundHandler.DOORBELL, 1, 1);
//Log said that EntityPlayerMP could not be cast to EntityPlayerSP

onItemRightClick is called on both sides, so no, you can't cast like that.

then how should I solve this problem. i am just having a problem with playing the sound from the code

i still dont get how to play a sound to just the person who clicked the item

Thank you!!!! Solved the problem with this code:

worldIn.playSound((EntityPlayer)null, playerIn.posX, playerIn.posY, playerIn.posZ, ModSoundHandler.DOORBELL, SoundCategory.PLAYERS, 1, 1);

First of all:

You cannot compare Strings like that.

 

As for how to play sounds, there is an excellent documentation page on that, which you should read.

 

I am able to compare these strings. It works 100% in all testing
