Inventory Click

[Socratic_Phoenix]

Is there an event for when a player clicks a slot in an inventory? If not, how would I create a listener which does listen to this action, through game state or whatever?

Your Container: Create a custom Slot class or override Container#slotClick (be sure to call the super method).

 

Another mods/vanillas Container: You can add an IContainerListener to any Container using the PlayerContainerEvent.Open event. IContainerListener#sendSlotContents will be called whenever the Container calls Container#detectAndSendChanges. You can use that to detect whenever the contents of a Slot changes. I don't think there's a way to detect whenever an empty Slot is clicked besides using a custom Slot class.

Thanks a lot!

Is there a way to obtain the Player that's doing the clicking?

Yes.  How will vary by event.

usually something like event.getEntity() or event.getPlayer().

So, on the player container open event, I get the player and pass it into the listener (IContainerListener)? Can I assume that that each player will always have a unique container object? That doesn't seem right... Especially since I need to do server side operations (though, if the listener only works on client, I could just do packet stuff)...

Currently, this is theoretical.... I have of course looked at the classes necessary, but until I know everything works, I'm working on other things in the mod and pretending ender chests on multiplayer servers can't reach between worlds
