How to make an inventory menu in Forge?

[Alsan Ali]

I'm trying to make an inventory menu where you select which server you want to join, but I have no idea where to start. I don't know how to construct an Inventory or anything like that, since it requires me to enter an ILockableContainer which I obviously can't construct.

 

I've done this in Bukkit/Spigot before, but I don't want to use that now (I like Forge's API better).

Maybe this will help?

Also I think it might help to look at the GUIContainer class.

EDIT:

I found a step by step guide on this here:

EDIT 2:

I just realized someone else posted the same link.

Do you really mean an "inventory" menu? Or do you just mean a server selection GUI? Those are different things. You said you wanted to select the server, and at the point you're selecting a server I don't think the player would even have an inventory. So it doesn't make sense to want an inventory menu to select a server. What exactly are you trying to do?

By this we mean:

Tell us what you want your user to see/do/interact with/have happen. Do no explain your attempts to code it.
