Hey!

So I want to create a system that displays the number of a certain mob with a certain name, for example, a Creeper named "Creep". I know how to create the event, how to display the text, but what I need is a system that permit me to store the number value, and get it back even after game restart, any idea how to do this?

I'm developing in 1.15.2

Sounds like you want to use a capability. Probably a capability attached to the World.

Does it work even if I change world / server in multiplayer? If so, how can I use it?

No it would be a different world. I guess I didn't know exactly what you wanted to do.

You want to through all worlds keep track of certain things?

If so you will need to write to a file yourself. Forge doesn't have anything for universal persistence that I know of. Though you can use basic IO or JSON(GSON) for stuff that is loaded and saved once.

I need to store values, and keep them wherever I go, like a vanilla setting doesn't change on different world

Does Forge support that? YML, JSON, .properties, is there a "vanilla" way to do that, or I have to create one myself?

You likely just need to use events to read and write the data. IE when the mod loads(FMLCommonSetupEvent) read the data from the file.

 

And the GSON library is included within the Minecraft/Minecraft Forge project so you can use that to read and write JSON files.

Ok perfect, and how can I do that?

Well, I can't figure how to do it, I feel stupid '-'

But I noticed that some mods use dat files in .minecraft dir, how can I do this with dat or JSON at this location? And how can I edit it with code?

Which part can you not figure out?
How to use GSON to write Json to file?
How to get the .minecraft file location?

 

If you want to use .dat I believe you need to store your data in a CompoundNBT then use net.minecraft.nbt.CompressedStreamTools to read and write your file when you need/want to.

.minecraft, I might have an idea, but not sure, to use GSON, I have no idea, and I don't understand most of the posts

Take a look at those two classes. CompoundNBT and CompressedStreamTools.

You can get the game directory by doing Minecraft.getInstance().gameDir but do note that this will not work on dedicated server.

Here is an example where I have used GSON to write JSON files. Though it might be too complicated for an example.

It is a client only mod (and personal tool) so no problems with that

    • I've tried the java version you linked to and got a new exit code of 127 Here is the new console log I also tried making sure that I had Java 8 selected with the version of Java 8 I already had installed and got the same exit code Here is the console log with that installation in case it has any differences I do notice both say 'Java checker returned some invalid data we don't understand:' followed by 'Minecraft might not start properly.' which could be some issues.

    • Thank you so much! I didnt see it in the log😭😭  
    • So im completely new to modding in general, i have some experience in Behavior packs in minecraft bedrock and i would like to modify entities stats and attributes like in a behavior pack (health, damage, speed, xp drop...). The problem is that i cant find any information online on how to do that, and I have no clue on what to do and where to start. I am currently modding in 1.20.4 with IntelliJ if that helps. My final objective is to buff mobs health and damage (double it for exemple), but since there is no entity file anywhere i don't know how to change it... 😢
    • Hey there, nothing to do with the code, I am just suggesting you use Intelij IDEA. Trust me, it is the best.
