give a target player potion effect onItemRightClick.

[mar_uku]

Hi.

In my mod I made an item, and I would like this item to give a potion effect (in this case nausea) to the I player I aim with it.

 

As for now, I've got an Item class, which looks like this.

 

public class ItemCouffey extends Item {


        @Override
        public ItemStack onItemRightClick(ItemStack item, World world, EntityPlayer player){


        System.out.println("it works"); // AMAZING

        player.playSound("vf:sword.sound", 1.0F, 1.0F);
        return item;


        }
        
}

 

I have no clue how I cloud give a potion effect to a target.. ^^

Thanks !

Look at ItemPotion.

I can't find out how to make it work.

I'm totally a beginner either in Java and in modding... ^^
All I found is this btw:  https://takahikokawasaki.github.io/minecraft-resources/javadoc/forge/1.8-11.14.1.1320/net/minecraft/item/ItemPotion.html

player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(MobEffects.NAUSEA,60));

Try to look at this method for EntityPlayer:

EntityPlayer::addPotionEffect(PotionEffect...);

Excellent example! However, the 60 can be changed and they might want to use an amplifier, particle visibility, and ambiance.

Still a functional example.

Indeed, it's just an example. Helpful or not, it is for asker to decide.

What I mean is that people will just copy your code, not understand it and then ask again next time.

Instead of learning to be independent and figuring things out on their own.

Well, I can agree with this, tho, if I asked on this forum, it's because I can't find anything nowhere.

The OP themselves said that they can't figure it out from what you told them (Look at ItemPotion), so you have to just tell then how to do it, and then they will learn.

That's not how it works. OP might have his question answered, and now knows how to apply potion effects. But he doesn't know how to figure out what do next time.

 

Next time he has a question he will go to the forums immediately and ask a question, instead of looking themselves first, because people like you give them the answers.

 

That's not how learning works.

If I need to learn something I'd not ask something on a forum, I'd reach up a friend who knows java and ask him to teach me.

Although what you said is correct for most people, don't generalize everything.

Well, it's kinda common sense, is it not?

Apparently not.
