I was wondering how I can listen to another mod's event.

I registered the listener on my preInit with `MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register(new PixelmonListener());`

For a simple test I checked for `EntityItemPickupEvent `which worked perfectly, but when I try to listen to another mod's event it doesn't seem to work.

The one I am trying is

@SubscribeEvent
public void onSendOut(PixelmonSendOutEvent event) {
  System.out.println("Sent out!");
}

But I get nothing.

I have Pixelmon imported in my gradle, I get no errors but seems like it is never fired.

Does something else need to be done to listen from another mod or maybe the event itself is never being fired from the actual mod?

 

Cheers.

That sounds more likely.

E.g. I have this:

https://github.com/Draco18s/ReasonableRealism/blob/1.12.1/src/main/java/com/draco18s/flowers/FlowerEventHandler.java#L90-L97

And it works fine.

I managed to fix it, apparently I had to use Pixelmon's EVENT_BUS instead of the MinecraftForge one to register it.
