(Resolved)TemplateManager#writeTemplate

[Zerahi]

I'm trying to figure out how to use this method but I can't get it to work. It starts writing but the overloads. I can't find any examples of what to put for DataFixer version. Also how to refer to my current template.

 

net.minecraft.world.gen.structure.template.TemplateManager

TemplateManager manage = new TemplateManager("/save", new DataFixer(1));
                manage.writeTemplate(null, new ResourceLocation("?"));

 

TemplateManger#writeTemplate comment says "writes the template to an external folder" I have the template in nbt right now on and item.

Hey,

 

You likely shouldn't be creating your own TemplateManager... Use the one you can get from an instance of the World:

world.getSaveHandler().getStructureTemplateManager()

See if that works. It should put the structure in the structures folder for the save currently loaded.

That would work to write templates you already had loaded but all the read or add function in the manager are private. I created a new template and it was an item variable. I got it stored to a new nbt compound and then looked how the template manager saves nbt files from and nbt and it's just a file stream writer with CompressedStreamTools.writeCompressed(nbt , OutStream). So its working now.
