[1.14.4] Single Block type in Chunk

[Simon_kungen]

Hi

 

This is a little over the place, but I'm going to try and summarize to the best of my ability:

 

I have a block which affects a whole chunk (a Chunkloader to be exact), and I have made so additional Chunkloaders placed in the same chunk will simply "turn off".

BlockChunkloader.java

public void onBlockPlacedBy(World worldIn, BlockPos pos, BlockState state, @Nullable LivingEntity placer, ItemStack stack)
{

    if (!worldIn.isRemote) {


        BlockPos dub = getDuplicate(worldIn,pos);

        if (dub != null) {
            placer.sendMessage(new TranslationTextComponent("chunkloading.intercraftcore.dublicate",dub.getX(),dub.getY(),dub.getZ()));
            worldIn.setBlockState(pos,state.with(BlockProperties.ACTIVE,false));

            TileEntity tile = worldIn.getTileEntity(pos);

            if (tile instanceof ChunkLoaderBaseTileEntity) {
                ((ChunkLoaderBaseTileEntity)tile).setCanLoad(false);
            } else if (tile instanceof ChunkLoaderTimerTileEntity) {
                ((ChunkLoaderTimerTileEntity)tile).setCanLoad(false);
            }


        }
    }

    super.onBlockPlacedBy(worldIn,pos,state,placer,stack);

}



public static BlockPos[] scanForLoaders(World worldIn, BlockPos pos)
{
    List<BlockPos> positions = new ArrayList<>();

    for (BlockPos tePos : worldIn.getChunk(pos).getTileEntitiesPos()) {
        if (worldIn.getTileEntity(pos) instanceof ChunkLoaderBaseTileEntity || worldIn.getTileEntity(pos) instanceof ChunkLoaderTimerTileEntity)
            positions.add(tePos);
    }

    return positions.toArray(new BlockPos[positions.size()]);

}

The TileEntities tick, and should only do the stuff if the canLoad variable is true. So if I place a second Chunkloader in the same chunk it will make it disabled. I want when it has one of the other Chunkloaders removed it should check if it is the last one there, and if it is disabled it should be allowed to be turned back on:

 

BlockChunkloader.java

public void onBlockHarvested(World worldIn, BlockPos pos, BlockState state, PlayerEntity player)
{
    if (!worldIn.isRemote) {

        BlockPos[] blockPos = scanForLoaders(worldIn,pos);


        if (blockPos.length-1 < 2 && blockPos.length-1 > 0) {
            System.out.println("There is one left in this chunk!");

            TileEntity tile = worldIn.getTileEntity(blockPos[0]);

            for (int i=0;i<blockPos.length;i++) {
                if (!(pos.getX() == blockPos[i].getX() &&pos.getY() == blockPos[i].getY() &&pos.getZ() == blockPos[i].getZ())) {
                    tile = worldIn.getTileEntity(blockPos[i]);
                    break;
                }
            }

            if (tile instanceof ChunkLoaderBaseTileEntity) {
                ((ChunkLoaderBaseTileEntity)tile).setCanLoad(true);
                if (autoActivate())
                    worldIn.setBlockState(pos,state.with(BlockProperties.ACTIVE,true));
            } else if (tile instanceof ChunkLoaderTimerTileEntity) {
                ((ChunkLoaderTimerTileEntity)tile).setCanLoad(true);
                if (autoActivate())
                    worldIn.setBlockState(pos,state.with(BlockProperties.ACTIVE,true));
            }
        }

    }

    super.onBlockHarvested(worldIn,pos,state,player);

}

 

 

 

The strange part is that when I do this the first time it works fine, but after I've reloaded the game the canLoad variable has reverted back being disabled and doesn't seem to be affected by having a new Chunkloader placed in the chunk and then removed. The only way of fixing it is to remove the block and place a new one. Which doesn't make any sense. Not sure if it's a logic error I've missed or some other thing.

How did you test this? Could it have been a client server desync? Have you tried stepping through the debugger in the read and write methods along with your onBlockPlacedBy and onHarvestBlock? I'd not do so find out how the code is executing.

I have a visual blockstate changing whenever it is on or not. Then I have the variable whenever it CAN load that chunk in the TileEntity.

Using things such as the Debug Stick to change the blockstate imminently changes it back again.

I wasnt talking about the debug stick I was talking about the debugger in your IDE that allows you to step through the code.

Umm, I haven't used that before. I tried the "Debug" button instead of the "Run" button in IntelliJ idea and didn't see any differences between that and the regular run mode.

You need to setup breakpoints to tell intellij where you want it to stop. Look up how to use the debugger in intellij for more information.
