I'm making a Capability that requires I store data in a float array and it  looks like NBT Tag compound only has a method for integer arrays. Is there some way around this or do I need to use an integer array instead?

 

Works perfectly, thanks!

How did you manage to get it working?

this is a really old resurrected post 

anyway 

 

//values to nbt 

ListTag nbtblockpos = new ListTag();
nbtblockpos.add(IntTag.valueOf(blockPos.getX()));
nbtblockpos.add(IntTag.valueOf(blockPos.getY()));
nbtblockpos.add(IntTag.valueOf(blockPos.getZ()));
entitydata.put("blockPos", nbtblockpos);

ListTag nbtpos = new ListTag();
nbtpos.add(DoubleTag.valueOf(Pos.x));
nbtpos.add(DoubleTag.valueOf(Pos.y));
nbtpos.add(DoubleTag.valueOf(Pos.z));

entitydata.put("pos", nbtpos);
 

//getting things back

if(entitydata.contains("blockPos")) {
nbtpos = entitydata.getList("blockPos", Tag.TAG_INT);// blockdata contains pos
this.blockPos = new BlockPos(
nbtpos.getInt(0),
nbtpos.getInt(1),
nbtpos.getInt(2) );
}

this.pos = null;
if(entitydata.contains("pos")) {
nbtpos = entitydata.getList("pos", Tag.TAG_DOUBLE);// blockdata contains pos
this.Pos = new Vec3(
nbtpos.getDouble(0),
nbtpos.getDouble(1),
nbtpos.getDouble(2) );
}
