Hello, this is a really simple problem. when I use ClientChatReceivedEvent my chat completely stops working, I can type but nothing shows up. all I'm trying to do is play a sound when the server says something eg: Zillex_ was killed by etc. thanks for your answers

Using ClientChatReceivedEvent is probably the reason it isn't working, and I don't know why it was the first event you thought of to detect player deaths, but there's the LivingDeathEvent you can use to detect entity deaths (for players: event.getEntityLiving() instanceof EntityPlayer).

I'd rather not use that because I'm making the mod for a specific person who wants it to only play when they die and not for others

Then just check for his/her username when you're processing the event.

You can also check which player died by checking their UUID.

Usernames can change, it's best to compare UUIDs instead as they're constant and unique.

But how will i know his uuid? or even mine for that matter

this plays when not checking the uuid but when it checks it the sound doesn't play, any suggestions? code:

@SubscribeEvent
    
    public void onDeath(LivingDeathEvent event) {
        
        if(event.entity instanceof EntityPlayer) {
            
            if(!event.entity.isEntityAlive()) {
                if(event.entity.getUniqueID().equals("74a1dcea-1946-45a9-a373-5f1b211f4d07")) {
                    Minecraft.getMinecraft().thePlayer.playSound("zillexcm:sounds.jigglypuff", 5.0F, 1.0F);
                }

getUniqueID returns a UUID, it will never be equal to a String. Your IDE should warn you about this. Either it doesn't (get a proper IDE or configure it properly) or you ignored that warning (why?).

Also why are you bumping after 2 hours?

sorry for the bump, and yes I accidentally ignored the warning woops. but what do I do, you didn't give me a fix?

If you know basic Java you should know how to fix this.

this still doesn't help me, i know basic java, I have made plugins for servers before. This is my first week with the forge api, so will you help? or just give me more elusive statements

5 minutes ago, diesieben07 said:

This has nothing to do with the Forge API.

Two objects of different types (java.util.UUID and java.lang.String, both not from the Forge API) will never be equal to each other. You have to use the same type for both, in this case java.util.UUID is appropriate, since you are comparing UUIDs.

okay but how do I compare the uuids with the forge api the only function compareTo(UUID) which says it takes in a byte but as you mentioned I can't get a byte to a UUID or can I? I'm not fluent in the forge api so what do I pass inside the compareTo(UUID) a byte or a UUID?

someUuid == otherUuid

someUuid == otherUuid

thanks but its late and I understand nothing so I did this: if(event.entity.getUniqueID().compareTo(74a1dcea-1946-45a9-a373-5f1b211f4d07 == 74a1dcea-1946-45a9-a373-5f1b211f4d07))

 

ik I'm doing something wrong but only worked with uuids a few times

but you said you are not a Java beginner.

not what I meant, I am a beginner but usually know what I'm doing but I thought, hey lets go on the forums for help instead of taking a couple hours to figure it out on my own, but all you're giving me is the same statement in different ways

1 minute ago, diesieben07 said:

equals. You need to call equals.

 

Seriously, you could not figure that out from my responses?

"if(event.entity.getUniqueID().equals(74a1dcea-1946-45a9-a373-5f1b211f4d07))" gives an error so I tried something else

did you even read this: "but I thought, hey lets go on the forums for help instead of taking a couple hours to figure it out on my own"

3 minutes ago, diesieben07 said:

Did you even read this (emphasis added)?

UUID uid = UUID.fromString("74a1dcea-1946-45a9-a373-5f1b211f4d07"); 
                
                if(event.entity.getUniqueID().equals(uid)) {

 

 not even going to ask you for help  even if its incorrect
