Hi,

 

I need the player object client-side on multiplayer. I found "Minecraft.getMinecraft().thePlayer" in the WWW, but "thePlayer" is not a property of class "Minecraft". How can I get the local player?

 

kind regards

Minecraft.getMinecraft().player, although keep in mind that this will crash if you run it in common code.

Thank you, but the result is every time "null".

Did you run it in common code? Preferably you should get the object in the ClientProxy. Can't really say much more than that since I'm pretty terrible at explaining things, honestly.

Post more of your code. What are you trying to achieve?

Currently I tested this:

@SubscribeEvent
public void onClientConnect(FMLNetworkEvent.ClientConnectedToServerEvent e) {
	EntityPlayerSP player = Minecraft.getMinecraft().player;
	System.out.println(player);
}

I would get the player name and later in another event the position, but I need the player entity for this.

 

@That_Martin_Guy what did you mean with "common code"?

At that point the player is not set up yet.

Once again: What are you trying to achieve (not: How are you trying to program it)?

I would only get the position/coordinates of the local player and print it in the console.

What for? Why on the client?

I would create a client side wrapper for a teamspeak 3 client. For this I need the position of the local player and all other player on the server.

Just now, diesieben07 said:

Ok. And you need that in that specific event, because...?

For testing. I will use it in another event later, but currently I need this event for debugging.

Well, that event is before there is a player, that is why you are getting null.

Thank you that's the solution  now it works (I tested with a little timer).
