Hey,

how can i associate my custom ContainerScreen to my own entity? Like horse inventory.

 

In order to when i click E to open inventory my custom container should display. But that doesn't append.

 

I have already register the screen in the ScreenManager.

 

Here is my custom entity:

public class RidableDolphinEnitity extends DolphinEntity implements INamedContainerProvider {

    protected Inventory inventory = new Inventory(2);

    public RidableDolphinEnitity(EntityType<RidableDolphinEnitity> type, World worldIn) {
        super(type, worldIn);
    }


    public Inventory getInventory() {
        return inventory;
    }

    @Nullable
    @Override
    public Container createMenu(int id, PlayerInventory inventory, PlayerEntity player) {
        return new RidableDolphinContainer(id, inventory, getInventory());

    }

    @Override
    public ITextComponent getDisplayName() {
        return TextComponentUtils.toTextComponent(() -> "Dolphin Inventory");
    }
}

I tried to implement this by modifing the container on GuiOpenEvent and PlayerContainerEvent.Open  but i sadly discovered that  PlayerContainerEvent.Open doesn't fire for the Container of the player then how can i say "when i press E open my container"? 

 

Here is the code of events:

@SubscribeEvent
    public static void onDolphinContainerOpen(PlayerContainerEvent.Open event) {
		// Never fires :C
        ServerPlayerEntity playerEntity = (ServerPlayerEntity) event.getPlayer();

        if(playerEntity.getRidingEntity() instanceof RidableDolphinEnitity) {
            RidableDolphinEnitity dolphin = (RidableDolphinEnitity) playerEntity.getRidingEntity();


            playerEntity.openContainer = new RidableDolphinContainer(playerEntity.currentWindowId, playerEntity.inventory, dolphin.getInventory());
        }
    }

    @SubscribeEvent
    public static void onDolphinGuiOpen(GuiOpenEvent event) {
        if(event.getGui() instanceof ContainerScreen) {
            ClientPlayerEntity player = Minecraft.getInstance().player;

            if (player != null && player.getRidingEntity() instanceof RidableDolphinEnitity) {

                RidableDolphinEnitity dolphin = (RidableDolphinEnitity) player.getRidingEntity();

                if(!(event.getGui() instanceof RidableDolphinScreen)) {

                    ContainerScreen<?> oldScreen = (ContainerScreen) event.getGui();
                    Container oldContainer = oldScreen.getContainer();

                    RidableDolphinContainer container = new RidableDolphinContainer(oldContainer.windowId, player.inventory, dolphin.getInventory());
                    RidableDolphinScreen screen = new RidableDolphinScreen(container, player.inventory, dolphin.getDisplayName());

                    player.openContainer = container;
                    event.setGui(screen);

                }
            }
        }
    }

 

I resolved by use a KeyBindingEvent and sending a packet to the server which calls NetworkHooks.openGui
