In the following effect method, I'd like the player to teleport to a block that's within their line of site. It does so by iterating over positions in the sight vector over a distance (16 in this case). There's no response in game however. Alternatively, I tested setPositionAndUpdate without flag3, which is the raw function used in attemptTeleport, but this gives wild results, with teleports that don't match the line of sight and often clip under the world. Any help is appreciated.

@Override
public void performEffect(LivingEntity entityLiving, int amplifier) {
    Minecraft instance = Minecraft.getInstance();

    final Vector3d vLook = entityLiving.getLook(1.0F);
    int d = 16;

    for (int i = 1; i <= d; i++) {
        double bX = vLook.getX() * i;
        double bY = vLook.getY() * i;
        double bZ = vLook.getY() * i;

        BlockPos.Mutable blockpos$mutable = new BlockPos.Mutable(bX, bY, bZ);
        assert instance.world != null;
        boolean flag1 = instance.world.getBlockState(blockpos$mutable).getMaterial().blocksMovement();
        boolean flag2 = i == d;
        boolean flag3 = entityLiving.attemptTeleport(bX, bY, bZ, true);

        if ((flag1 || flag2) && flag3) {
            //entityLiving.setPositionAndUpdate(bX, bY, bZ);
            SoundEvent soundevent = SoundEvents.ITEM_CHORUS_FRUIT_TELEPORT;
            instance.world.playSound(null, entityLiving.prevPosX, entityLiving.prevPosY, entityLiving.prevPosZ, soundevent, SoundCategory.PLAYERS, 1.0F, 1.0F);
            entityLiving.playSound(soundevent, 1.0F, 1.0F);
        }
    }
}

Why are you suing a mutable blockpos when you aren't reusing it?

What the fuck.

Jesus christ. Inline this garbage or use intelligent variable names.

"If the block blocks movement (player is not allowed to stand there) or we've reached max distance (we don't fucking care), then put the player inside that block. Yes, INSIDE the NON WALKABLE BLOCK."

Originally used for updating the Blockstate Y position in another loop. Was playing around with the loop, but removed it. The world null line is just to suppress a message that pops up in the editor.

Flag is a good name as that's what they're used for. But I guess what you're saying is that their purpose isn't immediately obvious to someone else reviewing the code.

You're right it should tp around that position instead, thanks for catching that. Will fix it.
