Getting a serverside set value for the client

[MistaOmega]

Hello all!

 

It's you favourite guy who can't figure things out

I'm working on my grinder tile entity here: https://github.com/MistaOmega/Opes/blob/master/src/main/java/mistaomega/opes/tiles/GrinderTile.java

I'm doing all the processing on the server side, which is something I think I'm meant to do..

However, when doing this I need to gather values for the grinder's GUI: https://github.com/MistaOmega/Opes/blob/master/src/main/java/mistaomega/opes/blocks/grinder/GrinderGUI.java

The values are for the processing so I can monitor the progress each tick through the arrow icon going white

 

However, it will always seem to be 0 on the GUI, even when the tile is working as intended.

 

Is there anyway to fix this, or should I be doing my tick handling in a different more appropriate way?

 

Thank you for any assistance

 

~Omega.

if you are only syncing some ints you can use the methods in Container class, I believe they are called trackedInt/trackIntArray

Set this up just as so, with the method being called from the constructor and it works perfectly, thank you again ❤️

    private void trackProcess(){
        final GrinderTile grinderTile = (GrinderTile) tileEntity;
        trackInt(new IntReferenceHolder()
        {

            @Override
            public int get()
            {
                return (int) grinderTile.getPowerRequirement();
            }

            @Override
            public void set(int intIn)
            {
                grinderTile.setPowerRequirement(intIn);
            }
        });
        trackInt(new IntReferenceHolder()
        {
            @Override
            public int get()
            {
                return grinderTile.getBurnTime();
            }

            @Override
            public void set(int intIn)
            {
                grinderTile.setBurnTime(intIn);
            }
        });
    }
