Recently I started Minecraft modding, one of the things I wanted to do was opening chests remotely. For example by using a command. The goal is to get all the items from the chest without actually being at its location. 

 

Currently I have done the following, this gets a chest location from the world and opens a chest gui. While this does open a chest gui, it opens the client chest and not server side, meaning there are no items in it.

 

        RayTraceResult objectMouseOver = player.rayTrace(5, 1); 

       	TileEntityChest te = (TileEntityChest) player.world.getTileEntity(objectMouseOver.getBlockPos());

        IInventory inv = null;

        if(te instanceof TileEntityChest) {
          TileEntityChest teChest = (TileEntityChest) te;
          inv = (IInventory) teChest;
        }
        IInventory finalInv = inv;

        Minecraft.getMinecraft().displayGuiScreen(new GuiChest(player.inventory, finalInv));
        

 

My question is, can I get the server side chest data or GUI within the code? And how to do this?
