Posted June 29, 201213 yr Hey, does Forge currently support alternate conditions for suffocation besides being in water? See, I have a very minor, not-officially-released mod that would greatly benefit from being able to make the player start suffocating under alternate conditions. Am I in luck?
June 29, 201213 yr not sure but an interesting idea to use for poison gases and such. Have you looked at player api i know it has a ton load of hooks to work with the player. Though there is no java docs from what i've seen making it hard to use. http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss215/bobstrong/ModBannerMed.png[/img]
June 29, 201213 yr I think Forge should include the player API. Generally I think a player would feel annoyed when they have to install Forge, then player API. http://calclavia.com/uploads/banner.png[/img]
June 29, 201213 yr Forge could use the player api, but not as it is, the player api is not efficient, it should be redesigned and rewritten to follow Forge's hook style, performance and clean code boost.
June 30, 201213 yr I would be happy with player api if it at least had commits written in the code and tuts. I tried to use it the other week to improve my comecloser and team mod but got no where at all. http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss215/bobstrong/ModBannerMed.png[/img]
June 30, 201213 yr Author Basically, what I wanted to do was make it so that the player took suffocation damage from open flames in areas not exposed to the sky. I suppose I could just make the game randomly inflict suffocation damage on the player using an ontick or something, though this would certainly be nicer...
June 30, 201213 yr yes, just inflict damage on tick. I don't think anything different happens when the damage source is suffocation anyways. http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss215/bobstrong/ModBannerMed.png[/img]
June 30, 201213 yr Doing things 'onTick' is bad It causes sutpid crap and the lead cause of lag on servers. Why not make a smoke block, that can suffocate the player but let them walk through it, just like water does? I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated. Consider supporting the team on Patreon
June 30, 201213 yr Author Well there's still the issue of how I'd get it to spread from fire blocks without editing base classes...
June 30, 201213 yr Replace the fire blocks. I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated. Consider supporting the team on Patreon
June 30, 201213 yr I think my air spreader mod may help you. Here is the code you should look at: public void updateTick(World par1World, int par2, int par3, int par4, Random par5Random) { if (!par1World.isRemote) { for (int var6 = 0; var6 < 4; ++var6) { int var7 = par2 + par5Random.nextInt(3) - 1; int var8 = par3 + par5Random.nextInt(5) - 3; int var9 = par4 + par5Random.nextInt(3) - 1; int var10 = par1World.getBlockId(var7, var8 + 1, var9); if (par1World.getBlockId(var7, var8, var9) == 0) { par1World.setBlockWithNotify(var7, var8, var9, mod_airSpread.airSpreader.blockID); } } } } I use that to make my block spread through the air. You can easily change it to make a "smoke" block spread and "suffocate" the player. It technically already does that. http://www.slothygaming.com/img/ota.png[/img] If your grammar is shit and you blatantly don't know what you're doing, I will not help you.
June 30, 201213 yr done right that code could be used to make cool environmental lighting effects. since the player could think the air is green or red though its still giving off white light. also too suffocate the player or add strange effects too the player like reduced speed, jumping or increase damage taken. http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss215/bobstrong/ModBannerMed.png[/img]
July 1, 201213 yr I used it for more of a survival thing. http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1312152-making-mods-for-free Just download the mod_airSpread. It really does cause a interesting survival effect. You need the latest version of Forge or you will get a visual error while holding it. http://www.slothygaming.com/img/ota.png[/img] If your grammar is shit and you blatantly don't know what you're doing, I will not help you.

I really like the idea and want to use it on SMP to make it hard for players to survive. think i can look at your source code and see about making it smp for you? http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss215/bobstrong/ModBannerMed.png[/img]
July 1, 201213 yr I can make a SMP version for you. The problem is when it gets REALLY big. My computer can handle it just fine. As long as it isn't on a really big server with lots of people, it should be okay. It uses grass logic but it has no special conditions for expanding. It just does. http://www.slothygaming.com/img/ota.png[/img] If your grammar is shit and you blatantly don't know what you're doing, I will not help you.

It just does. hmm seems easy enough though if i do add it to my server i might change its look and add special conditions to spread. My idea is too add it only to the nether world that way its no so bad for lag. Maybe just add it to the world generator for the nether to replace air. http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss215/bobstrong/ModBannerMed.png[/img]
July 2, 201213 yr I will make a special version for you so it replaces air in the nether and doesn't suffocate you when it spreads into your face, unless you want that. Just PM me what you want it to do and I can make a version like that. http://www.slothygaming.com/img/ota.png[/img] If your grammar is shit and you blatantly don't know what you're doing, I will not help you.

Just PM me what you want it to do and I can make a version like that. I was thinking of making it so the player had to wear protective armor in order to walk around in it. Plus have a limited air supply. Though if you don't mind i can code it myself if you want to work on something else. http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss215/bobstrong/ModBannerMed.png[/img]
July 2, 201213 yr I am more than willing to work on it. I do have quite a load to finish but this would be really easy. http://www.slothygaming.com/img/ota.png[/img] If your grammar is shit and you blatantly don't know what you're doing, I will not help you.
