Possible to use NBTTagCompound in a Gui

[zhscraft]

is it Possible to use NBTTagCompound within the Gui Class file to load and safe values?

if yes, how would i go about doing so?

 

i'm still learning to use NBTTagCompound

[endershadow]

If you want to do that, save it in the tile entity and then access it in the GUI

[zhscraft]

Okay got that done,

 

if i'm thinking right this would set all the same values for all the blocks unless i set and get the block coords?

[endershadow]

it shouldn't.

[zhscraft]

not sure what to do to figure this out unless you have to put readFromNBT and write a certain way

 

 

 public void readFromNBT(NBTTagCompound par1NBTTagCompound)
    {
        super.readFromNBT(par1NBTTagCompound);
        GuiJumper.HeighLevel = par1NBTTagCompound.getInteger("HeighLevel");
        GuiJumper.isSelected = par1NBTTagCompound.getInteger("isSelected");

        GuiJumper.NORTHDIST = par1NBTTagCompound.getInteger("NORTHDIST");
        GuiJumper.SOUTHDIST = par1NBTTagCompound.getInteger("SOUTHDIST");
        GuiJumper.EASTDIST = par1NBTTagCompound.getInteger("EASTDIST");
        GuiJumper.WESTDIST = par1NBTTagCompound.getInteger("WESTDIST");
        
        //BlockJumper.Cname = par1NBTTagCompound.getString("Cname");

    }

    /**
     * Writes a tile entity to NBT.
     */
    public void writeToNBT(NBTTagCompound par1NBTTagCompound)
    {
        super.writeToNBT(par1NBTTagCompound);
        par1NBTTagCompound.setInteger("HeighLevel", GuiJumper.HeighLevel);
        par1NBTTagCompound.setInteger("isSelected", GuiJumper.isSelected);
        
        par1NBTTagCompound.setInteger("NORTHDIST", GuiJumper.NORTHDIST);
        par1NBTTagCompound.setInteger("SOUTHDIST", GuiJumper.SOUTHDIST);
        par1NBTTagCompound.setInteger("EASTDIST", GuiJumper.EASTDIST);
        par1NBTTagCompound.setInteger("WESTDIST", GuiJumper.WESTDIST);
        
        //par1NBTTagCompound.setString("Cname", BlockJumper.Cname);
        System.out.println("writeToNBT");
    }

 

 

[endershadow]

here's what I did to get access to things in my tileentity with the gui

public NAME_OF_GUI(InventoryPlayer inventoryPlayer,
                        TILEENTITY tileEntity) {
                //the container is instanciated and passed to the superclass for handling
                super(new CONTAINER(inventoryPlayer, tileEntity));
                this.ySize = 200;
                this.xSize = 234;
                VARIEABLE_NAME = tileEntity;
        }
        
        public TILEENTITY VARIEABLE_NAME ;

and then i just access the stuff in my tileentity by doing

tsc.STUFF_FROM_THE_TILEENTITY

[zhscraft]

everything is loading/saving right even disconnecting from there world it gets the data, but everyblock is getting the same data, and even making a whole new world it still had the same data

[endershadow]

let me see your code

[zhscraft]

alright here is all the files being used

you're doing it incorrectly. if you want to see how I did it, look at my github https://github.com/Code-Lyoko-Modding/CodeLyokoMod
