Help with itemInteractionForEntity()

[gonky40]

In am trying to calculate the difference between the player using an item and the entity the item is used on, however the itemInteractionForEntity method i tried using does not include a variable for EntityPlayer. How can i get a variable for the player that is using the item? Thank you!

Hey!

maybe you can use onItemRightClick(itemStack, world, entityPlayer) instead.

 

And inside the method body, do like this:

[spoiler=CODE]

float f = 1.0F;
        double d0 = par3EntityPlayer.prevPosX + (par3EntityPlayer.posX - par3EntityPlayer.prevPosX) * (double)f;
        double d1 = par3EntityPlayer.prevPosY + (par3EntityPlayer.posY - par3EntityPlayer.prevPosY) * (double)f + 1.62D - (double)par3EntityPlayer.yOffset;
        double d2 = par3EntityPlayer.prevPosZ + (par3EntityPlayer.posZ - par3EntityPlayer.prevPosZ) * (double)f;
        MovingObjectPosition movingobjectposition = this.getMovingObjectPositionFromPlayer(par2World, par3EntityPlayer, true);

        if (movingobjectposition == null)
        {
            return par1ItemStack;
        }
        else if (movingobjectposition.entityHit instanceof EntityLiving)
            {
                // DO STUFF HERE, Entity hit
            }

 

 

This is using the getMovingObjectPositionFromPlayer() method which all items inherit from the Item class.

I got this code by looking at how ItemBucket get's milk from EntityCow upon using the item

Hope it helps ^^
