[1.10.2] Open gui from custom entity


MCRaichu

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I created a custom entity with an inventory (basically like a horse). But I'm struggling opening the gui since openGui only takes the player as an input and I don't know how to get the entity I'm interacting with. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

MCRaichu

It doesn't work, I don't know why.

okay, so I explained it wrong.

after I called openGui from EntityPlayer

    /**
     * Opens a GUI with this player, uses FML's IGuiHandler system.
     * Allows for extension by modders.
     *
     * @param mod The mod trying to open a GUI
     * @param modGuiId GUI ID
     * @param world Current World
     * @param x Passed directly to IGuiHandler, data meaningless Typically world X position
     * @param y Passed directly to IGuiHandler, data meaningless Typically world Y position
     * @param z Passed directly to IGuiHandler, data meaningless Typically world Z position
     */
    public void openGui(Object mod, int modGuiId, World world, int x, int y, int z)
    {
        net.minecraftforge.fml.common.network.internal.FMLNetworkHandler.openGui(this, mod, modGuiId, world, x, y, z);
    }

 

this is handled on client and server side (getClientGuiElement, getServerGuiElement). How can I access the interacted entity at that point? Which I need to get the inventory.

It doesn't work, I don't know why.

You need to pass the entity's ID (Entity#getEntityId) as one of the int arguments of EntityPlayer#openGUI. In your GUI handler, use World#getEntityByID to get the entity from its ID.

Please don't PM me to ask for help. Asking your question in a public thread preserves it for people who are having the same problem in the future.

Is that safe? the ID is of type UUID (128bit) and casting it to int (32bit) could cause some trouble, right?

 

EDIT:

forget it. I used entityUniqueID not getEntityId()

 

[SOLVED]
