[1.12.2] Custom Message on Player Join [SOLVED]

[ModMCdl]

Hello! I'm trying to make a message pop up when a player joins the world, similar to how mods like Mekanism lets players know if there's an update. However, it doesn't show up in-game, and when I add a system print line, the print line doesn't pop up in the console either. I know it's being registers and called properly, because the method is called in my WorldEventsHandler, and everything else in there works. 

 

@SubscribeEvent
	public void onPlayerLogin(PlayerEvent.PlayerLoggedInEvent event)
	{
		event.player.sendMessage(new TextComponentString("Voidaic Arcania: This mod is still in BETA. Additional gameplay information can be found in the wiki here: https://github.com/CammiePone/Voidaic-Arcania/wiki"));
	}

 

If you need to poke around, here is the git: https://github.com/CammiePone/Voidaic-Arcania/blob/master/src/main/java/com/camellias/voidaicarcania/util/handlers/WorldEventHandler.java

 

Note: this development is still in beta, and being developed by two people who are still learning, so sloppy code is to be expected.

Your method needs to be static. Like the other ones in that class. Right now it is actually not registering properly as the @EventBusSubscriber annotation requires static methods.

1  Check if the entity instance is an EntityPlayer.

2  Check for client side.

3  What Jabelar said, too.

What? Why?

I'm using EntityJoinWorldEvent.

No. Login event is server-side.

 

What? Why?

So... don't do what they said?

 

Also, @jabelar's idea worked out fine, so thanks. Can't believe I missed that!
