Posted September 28, 20178 yr Hi, i have an entity, i set a custom name at spawning. He has it then and is synced on server and client. The entity class.

September 28, 20178 yr I don't have any experience with this, but here's a tutorial that might be able to help you out... https://wiki.mcjty.eu/modding/index.php/Networking-1.12 - Just because things are the way they are doesn't mean they can't be the way you want them to be. Unless they're aspen trees. You can tell they're aspens 'cause the way they are.
September 29, 20178 yr Maybe look at how the vanilla name tags work. Check out my tutorials here: http://jabelarminecraft.blogspot.com/
September 29, 20178 yr At first, I was going to say that it could just be that you're never calling setCustomNameTag() after the Name is changed, but seeing that you're printing the value of Name to the console and it's not changing, I guess that doesn't really solve the issue here, though you still may want to consider doing so. I believe the real issue here is the way you're handling the GUI. The solution to the problem is not to sync the data from the client to the server. When working with GUIs, you want to use both sides, so your method that opens the GUI should not be @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT) and you should not use Minecraft.getMinecraft().displayGuiScreen(), but instead FMLNetworkHandler.openGui(). I haven't worked with GUIs in a while, but here's a tutorial on using them properly: https://bedrockminer.jimdo.com/modding-tutorials/advanced-modding/gui-screen/ - Just because things are the way they are doesn't mean they can't be the way you want them to be.

September 29, 20178 yr Author 5 hours ago, AnZaNaMa said: At first, I was going to say that it could just be that you're never calling setCustomNameTag() after the Name is changed, I did. I call this function in the entity class Spoiler public void setName(String Name) { this.Name = Name; this.setCustomNameTag(this.Name); } And the call in the gui Spoiler @Override protected void keyTyped(char typedChar, int keyCode) throws IOException { workerName.textboxKeyTyped(typedChar, keyCode); worker.setName(workerName.getText()); super.keyTyped(typedChar, keyCode); } Changing the gui handling to gui handler will also not solve the problem.
September 29, 20178 yr Author I found it. Have taken out all parts, where i was using the self set string "Name" and accessing now only custom name tag. Now it works. He didn't sync the string, even with using nbt tag to store and reread it.
