Hi everyone, i'm trying to update an 1.8.9 mod to 1.15.2. For now, i'm blocked on this component.

Old code was:

ManageKeys.mc.thePlayer.addChatMessage((IChatComponent)new ChatComponentText(ChatFormatting.RED + "*string*"));

New code (actually) is:

ManageKeys.mc.player.sendMessage((ITextComponent)new ChatComponentText(ChatFormatting.RED + "*string*"));

I don't now if i'm doing right but i'm blocked here. Appreciating your help.
Best regards, Slart.

The point of the chat component system is to NOT use TextFormatting (old name EnumChatFormatting) with string concatenation. Use Style#setColor (from ITextComponent#getStyle).

ChatComponentText is StringTextComponent now.

 

Also: Do not store the Minecraft instance somewhere. Use Minecraft#getInstance.

Firstly, thanks for the answer.
Now, i've never used this type of.. istruction? What should be the type "Class#method" ?

It's just a notation for instance methods, meaning you need an instance of the class to call the method.

Okay.. maybe i've understood... So....

Style cs = new Style();

Then

cs.setStyle(/*Color?*/);
// Now output of the chat message:
mc.player.sendMessage((ITextComponent)new StringTextComponent("*String*");

And what goes inside setStyle?

Nowhere in my post did I say to do that.

I said to use ITextComponent#getStyle.

Mhhh....

If i declare an object

ITextComponent style;
// Then
style.getStyle();

Where i set the style?

p.s. if it is all wrong excuse me but i've not understood so much..
