[1.15] OnArmorTick PlayerEntity cannot be cast to ServerPlayerEntity.

[simplebunsen]

So I want to have an armor item with a chance to get damaged on each tick while a certain condition is met.

I can't use the PlayerEntity as ServerPlayerEntity though, since there is the following error:

Net.minecraft.client.entity.player.ClientPlayerEntity cannot be cast to net.minecraft.entity.player.ServerPlayerEntity

 

I suspect that it has do do something with sidedness, but can't wrap my head around how, since if I add an @OnlyIn Server Annotation, the Jump Boost doesn't seem to get applied clientside and isn't functionally there (desync?)

How do I actually get the ServerPlayerEntity out of this event?

    @Override
    public void onArmorTick(ItemStack stack, World world, PlayerEntity player) {
        player.addPotionEffect(new EffectInstance(Effects.JUMP_BOOST, 0, 4, false, false, false));
        if (chance && condition) {
            stack.attemptDamageItem(1, world.getRandom(), (ServerPlayerEntity) player);
        }
    }

There is no need to cast to ServerPlayerEntity. Just do what you want to do there.

Check the side with World#isRemote though.

Do I need to only decrement the durab server side?

thanks for your help!

Just asking: is there any place except from experienced Forge users, where I can find this kind of in-depth information on specific functions etc? The documentation seems kind of lackluster and barebones for most of the code.
