[SOLVED] [1.12.2] Modifying player capabilities for offline players?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hey!

 

Is there any way to modify capability values for offline players (where EntityPlayerMP instance is null essentially) without using JSON? Is there like a way to make capabilities for GameProfile?

 

Any help is appreciated!

 

Thanks! :D

How is JSON applicable at all here? Capabilities use NBT...

You can probably do something similar to what SaveHandler#readPlayerData does. You can't use it directly, because it requires an EntityPlayerMP. Then you can modify the data and save it back. Note however that you need to take to only do this if the player isn't logged in or your changes will go away.

I mean, it isn't necessarily capabilities that I'm trying to store, it's just raw data (some boolean, integer variables, etc.) and that's what I meant by using JSON.

 

So the way I currently do it is make a temporary entry in my JSON file for offline player. Then when they log on, I move the values to NBT (the player capability class) and remove the JSON entry.

In that case you could just store a Map<UUID, YourDataClass> somewhere and load/unloaded from that as needed. And then you can use whatever data format you want.

Yes, but what if the Dedicated Server is, say, closed before the player gets to log on?

The one the world is also saved to?

 

Like I said, which file format you use is completely up to you here.

Ah I see. I think now the JSON much is way simpler xD

 

Thanks for the help! :)

The thing is I was trying to figure out if there's any way to accomplish this without having to save data to a file.

    • Hello all. I'm currently grappling with the updateShape method in a custom class extending Block.  My code currently looks like this: The conditionals in CheckState are there to switch blockstate properties, which is working fine, as it functions correctly every time in getStateForPlacement.  The problem I'm running into is that when I update a state, the blocks seem to call CheckState with the position of the block which was changed updated last.  If I build a wall I can see the same change propagate across. My question thus is this: is updateShape sending its return to the neighbouring block?  Is each block not independently executing the updateShape method, thus inserting its own current position?  The first statement appears to be true, and the second false (each block is not independently executing the method). I have tried to fix this by saving the block's own position to a variable myPos at inception, and then feeding this in as CheckState(myPos) but this causes a worse outcome, where all blocks take the update of the first modified block, rather than just their neighbour.  This raises more questions than it answers, obviously: how is a different instance's variable propagating here?  I also tried changing it so that CheckState did not take a BlockPos, but had myPos built into the body - same problem. I have previously looked at neighbourUpdate and onNeighbourUpdate, but could not find a way to get this to work at all.  One post on here about updatePostPlacement and other methods has proven itself long superceded.  All other sources on the net seem to be out of date. Many thanks in advance for any help you might offer me, it's been several days now of trying to get this work and several weeks of generally trying to get round this roadblock.  - Sandermall
    • sorry, I might be stupid, but how do I open it? because the only options I have are too X out, copy it, which doesn't work and send crash report, which doesn't show it to me, also, sorry for taking so long.
    • Can you reproduce this with version 55.0.21? A whole lot of plant placement issues were just fixed in this PR.
    • Necro'ing that thread to ask if you found a solution ? I'm encountering the same crash on loading the world. I created the world in Creative to test my MP, went into survival to test combat, died, crashed on respawn and since then crash on loading the world. Deactivating Oculus isn't fixing it either, and I don't have Optifine (Twilight forest is incompatible)
