Hello,

 

I'm currently making a mod for game automation, and I would need the mod to automaticly write something on a sign.

I tried to simulate keyboard keys using the java Robot class, but it only send keys to the current active window, and not to the game, if it's not active...

I was wondering if there is a "forge" way to write something in a sign.

 

Is it possible ?

Signs have tile entities that store their text. You can access it that way.

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

 

Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked.

 

DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.

Thank you for your answer, but how am I supposed to do that ?

 

Is it the correct way to get the sign's tile entity ? : 

TileEntitySign tileEntitySign = (TileEntitySign) Minecraft.getMinecraft().world.getTileEntity(new BlockPos(0, 0, 0));

This is client side only.

Either:

  • Your mod needs to be client side only (in which case, it can't make changes).
  • You need to access the TE via a server world.

I'm sorry I didn't understand your message...

You mean that if the mod is client side only, it's not possible ? My mod is client side only

You could read the text of the sign, but you can't change it, because of this pesky thing called "server authoritative model."

That is, the server is the absolute authority on the state of the game, and that state includes the text on signs. Without code on the server to change that text, you can't.

Vanilla has code to handle that, but that doesn't mean you can hook into it and make it do what you want.

      REVIEW OF THE BEST BITCOIN RECOVERY TEAM - MUYERN TRUST HACKER

      By andreygagloev · Posted

      When I first heard about Bitcoin back in 2018, I was skeptical. The idea of a decentralized, digital currency seemed too good to be true. But I was intrigued as I learned more about the technology behind it and its potential. I started small, investing just a few hundred dollars, dipping my toes into the cryptocurrency waters. At first, it was exhilarating to watch the value of my investment grow exponentially. I felt like I was part of the future, an early adopter of this revolutionary new asset. But that euphoria was short-lived. One day, I logged into my digital wallet only to find it empty - my Bitcoin had vanished without a trace. It turned out that the online exchange I had trusted had been hacked, and my funds were stolen. I was devastated, both financially and emotionally. All the potential I had seen in Bitcoin was tainted by the harsh reality that with decentralization came a lack of regulation and oversight. My hard-earned money was gone, lost to the ether of the digital world. This experience taught me a painful lesson about the price of trust in the uncharted territory of cryptocurrency. While the technology holds incredible promise, the risks can be catastrophic if you don't approach it with extreme caution. My Bitcoin investment gamble had failed, and I was left to pick up the pieces, wiser but poorer for having placed my faith in the wrong hands. My sincere appreciation goes to MUYERN TRUST HACKER. You are my hero in recovering my lost funds. Send a direct m a i l ( muyerntrusted ( @ ) mail-me ( . )c o m ) or message on whats app : + 1 ( 4-4-0 ) ( 3 -3 -5 ) ( 0-2-0-5 )

      corail tombstone fire crash

      You could try posting a log (if there is no log at all, it may be the launcher you are using, the FAQ may have info on how to enable the log) as described in the FAQ, however this will probably need to be reported to/remedied by the mod author.

      corail tombstone fire crash

      By belzabel · Posted

      So me and a couple of friends are playing with a shitpost mod pack and one of the mods in the pack is corail tombstone and for some reason there is a problem with it, where on death to fire the player will get kicked out of the server and the tombstone will not spawn basically deleting an entire inventory, it doesn't matter what type of fire it is, whether it's from vanilla fire/lava, or from modded fire like ice&fire/lycanites and it's common enough to where everyone on the server has experienced at least once or twice and it doesn't give any crash log. a solution to this would be much appreciated thank you!
