[1.13.2] Events not firing

[Meldexun]

Hello there,

i want to use some events in my mod but all of them don't seem to work.

So this is an example class:

@EventBusSubscriber(modid = BetterDiving.MOD_ID)
public class Test {
    
    @SubscribeEvent
    public static void test1(PlayerInteractEvent.RightClickEmpty e) {
        System.out.println("Test1");
    }
    
    @SubscribeEvent
    public static void test2(LivingUpdateEvent e) {
        System.out.println("Test2");
    }
    
}

 

Am i missing something?

Which is not working? How did you test it?

All of the events never seem to work. I have added this class to my mod and i never see "Test1" or "Test2" when playing ingame.

After testing my mod with only the mod class and the event test class i noticed that i forgot to register my capability. Still thank you for trying to help.

Okay, that wasn't the issue. Just another problem.

The problem was that i had a static ResourceLocation in one of my event classes. So when you have a class with the EventBusSubscriber annotation and inside it a static ResourceLocation it will prevent all events from firing.

That would be an example class:

@EventBusSubscriber(modid = TestMod.MOD_ID)
public class Test {
	
	public static ResourceLocation TEST = new ResourceLocation(TestMod.MOD_ID, "test");
	
}

Yeah, no. This is not a thing at all.

I know it sounds like i'm just dumb. But these are my classes:

Mod class:

package meldexun.better_diving;

import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod;

@Mod(BetterDiving.MOD_ID)
public class BetterDiving {
	
	public static final String MOD_ID = "better_diving";
	
}

 

Event class 1:

package meldexun.better_diving;

import net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocation;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod.EventBusSubscriber;

@EventBusSubscriber(modid = BetterDiving.MOD_ID)
public class Event1 {
	
	public static final ResourceLocation DIVING_VALUES = new ResourceLocation(BetterDiving.MOD_ID, "divingValues");
	
}

 

Event class 2:

package meldexun.better_diving;

import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraftforge.event.entity.living.LivingEvent.LivingUpdateEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.eventbus.api.SubscribeEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod.EventBusSubscriber;

@EventBusSubscriber(modid = BetterDiving.MOD_ID)
public class Event2 {
	
	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void test(LivingUpdateEvent e) {
		if (e.getEntity() instanceof EntityPlayer) {
			System.out.println("test");
		}
	}
	
}

 

When launching the game like this i never see the "test" from the LivingUpdateEvent.

But when removing the ResourceLocation from the Event class 1 i get the "test" in the console.

Look at the code that creates event subscribers. There is nothing at all that deals with unsubscribing stuff with a resource location field.

Well I'm just saying what is happening. These are the only 3 classes in my mod and only when i remove the ResourceLocation i get the "test" printed in the console. I really would like to understand what is causing this.

Almost certainly something else is happening. After removing the line, and it works, add the line back, touch nothing else. Does it break again? Try commenting the line instead of removing it. Try changing the strings being passed to the resource location. Make it private. Don't make it static.

Ok, i think i found it. I had a capital letter in my ResourceLocation which only gives an error but no crash and prevents the events from being subscribed.

Yes, because when it errors it stops loading your mod for being improperly formatted. This is not a "stop the presses and burn down the building" error, its a "throw the drunk out" error.
