Posted October 17, 20178 yr How would I go about getting the coords where the player is looking? I was using: RayTraceResult target = Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderViewEntity().rayTrace(15, 1.0F); From what I understand this only works client side. Is there an equivalent for server side or will I need a workaround?
October 17, 20178 yr You will need to replicate the behavior of the raytrace yourself.

If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

October 18, 20178 yr Inside your IDE, lookup the Entity class. Look for the rayTrace method. The code can run on both Client & Server side, it's merely been forced to one side by human intervention. You can copy it and put it wherever, and it should work. However, you'll need to know blockReachDistance & partialTicks. At least in Eclipse, you can highlight a method/class name, and press Ctrl+Shift+G to find what calls it. I suggest you use that or any equivalent methods in other IDE's to figure out those values.

October 18, 20178 yr Author I tried bringing the methods over from entity class last night. I couldn't seem to get it to work. I'll have to give it a try again tonight. Other than bringing the methods over is there anything else I'd need to do?
October 18, 20178 yr 46 minutes ago, Matryoshika said: it's merely been forced to one side by human intervention. Well, technically machine intervention. The code was never used on the server in vanilla code, so the automated "strip out things not used on the server" process stripped it.
