Modifying Forge/determining when an Enderman picks up a block

I'm trying to determine when an enderman picks up a block.

I've looked into subscribing to the EntityEvent, LivingEvent, LivingUpdateEvent, BlockEvent, EntityMobGriefingEvent, and some others. I looked a little bit into the mapped source for the EndermanEntity, and I actually found what appear to be oversights that make this task that much harder if not impossible. First, the EntityMobGriefingEvent isn't fired at the right time, and instead it's fired much earlier than when a block is actually trying to be broken/placed. Even if it were fired at the right time, then it still wouldn't be able to distinguish between and enderman picking up or placing down a block. It seems like either a new event is needed or the TakeBlockGoal should post a LivingDestroyBlockEvent.

 

If anyone has any ideas on how to determine if the enderman picks up a block or not, please feel free to chime in.

 

Otherwise, I would like to modify the Minecraft Forge EndermanEntity file myself and would appreciate any direction on this topic.

Yeah, there's no good way to detect this right now.

Its based on several random variables and the EntityMobGriefingEvent simply determines whether or not the endermen are allowed to make that random check (which can still fail).

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.

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

 So should I just create a pull request? It seems like there's already a good event for this sort of thing (LivingDestroyBlockEvent) and I could add a single line of code to fix this issue.

      Struggling to decipher a crash report I'm getting in a custom modpack I'm tinkering with. The crash happens on startup, but weirdly, only some of the time. It seems to be related to Steves Carts, but weirdly it only started happening recently, and I can't identify if another mod is conflicting, or why it is only happening some of the time:   java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "net.minecraft.world.entity.player.Player.m_20202_()" because "player" is null at vswe.stevescarts.events.OverlayEventHandler.onRenderTick(OverlayEventHandler.java:24) ~[stevescarts-1.20.1-1.1.14.jar%23527!/:1.20.1-1.1.14] {re:classloading} at net.minecraftforge.eventbus.EventBus.doCastFilter(EventBus.java:260) ~[eventbus-6.0.5.jar%23127!/:?] {} at net.minecraftforge.eventbus.EventBus.lambda$addListener$11(EventBus.java:252) ~[eventbus-6.0.5.jar%23127!/:?] {} at net.minecraftforge.eventbus.EventBus.post(EventBus.java:315) ~[eventbus-6.0.5.jar%23127!/:?] {} at net.minecraftforge.eventbus.EventBus.post(EventBus.java:296) ~[eventbus-6.0.5.jar%23127!/:?] {} at net.minecraftforge.event.ForgeEventFactory.onRenderTickEnd(ForgeEventFactory.java:919) ~[forge-1.20.1-47.1.106-universal.jar%23581!/:?] {re:mixin,re:classloading,pl:mixin:APP:modernfix-forge.mixins.json:perf.potential_spawns_alloc.ForgeEventFactoryMixin,pl:mixin:A} at net.minecraft.client.Minecraft.m_91383_(Minecraft.java:1148) ~[client-1.20.1-20230612.114412-srg.jar%23576!/:?] {re:mixin,pl:accesstransformer:B,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraft_runtick,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraft_runtick_render_call,xf:fml:xaerominimap:xaero_minecraftclient,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraftclient,pl:runtimedistcleaner:A,re:classloading,pl:accesstransformer:B,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraft_runtick,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraft_runtick_render_call,xf:fml:xaerominimap:xaero_minecraftclient,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraftclient,pl:mixin:A,pl:runtimedistcleaner:A} at net.minecraft.client.Minecraft.m_91374_(Minecraft.java:718) ~[client-1.20.1-20230612.114412-srg.jar%23576!/:?] {re:mixin,pl:accesstransformer:B,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraft_runtick,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraft_runtick_render_call,xf:fml:xaerominimap:xaero_minecraftclient,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraftclient,pl:runtimedistcleaner:A,re:classloading,pl:accesstransformer:B,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraft_runtick,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraft_runtick_render_call,xf:fml:xaerominimap:xaero_minecraftclient,xf:fml:xaeroworldmap:xaero_wm_minecraftclient,pl:mixin:A,pl:runtimedistcleaner:A} at net.minecraft.client.main.Main.main(Main.java:218) ~[minecraft-1.20.1-client.jar:?] {re:mixin,pl:runtimedistcleaner:A,re:classloading,pl:mixin:APP:flywheel.mixins.json:ClientMainMixin,pl:mixin:A,pl:runtimedistcleaner:A}     Including some extra info in case any of it is relevant^.
