Help with Flying Armor Resolved!!

[TheAraulin]

So lately I have been trying to make armor that allows you to fly like you are in creative. I have not had any luck with using a tick handler and I was wondering if there is any other way to allow flight than what this topic: http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php?topic=7925.0 does as it has not worked for me.

[ObsequiousNewt]

Why/how didn't it work?

[TheAraulin]

Basically it would not let you fly but there were no errors

 

I will post the classes later tonight.

[endershadow]

you need to set it in the onArmorUpdateTick method in the armor's item class.

[Yagoki]

The exact classes I used there still work for me...

 

(Note this is all from the project I use to test stuff (mostly for this site), so it isn't organized at all)

 

 

Tick Handler

 

import java.util.EnumSet;

import mods.gaspoweredstick.code.item.ItemModArmor;
import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.ITickHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.TickType;

public class PlayerTickHandler implements ITickHandler
{

@Override
public void tickStart(EnumSet<TickType> type, Object... tickData)
{
	playerTick((EntityPlayer)tickData[0]);
}

@Override
public void tickEnd(EnumSet<TickType> type, Object... tickData)
{

}

@Override
public EnumSet<TickType> ticks()
{
	return EnumSet.of(TickType.PLAYER);
}

@Override
public String getLabel()
{
	return "My_Tick_Handler";
}

private void playerTick(EntityPlayer player)
{

	if (player.inventory.armorInventory[3] != null)
	{
		if (player.inventory.armorInventory[3].getItem() instanceof ItemModArmor)
		{

			player.capabilities.allowFlying = true;

		} 
	}
	else if (!player.capabilities.isCreativeMode)
	{
		player.capabilities.allowFlying = false;
	}
}

}

 

Armor class

import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;
import net.minecraft.item.EnumArmorMaterial;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemArmor;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraft.world.World;
import net.minecraftforge.common.EnumHelper;

public class ItemModArmor extends ItemArmor
{
public static final EnumArmorMaterial ModArmor = EnumHelper
		.addArmorMaterial("ModArmor", 9001, new int[]{1,2,3,4}, 42);


public ItemModArmor(int par1, EnumArmorMaterial par2EnumArmorMaterial, int par3, int par4)
{
	super(par1, par2EnumArmorMaterial, par3, par4);
}
}

 

Common Proxy

import mods.gaspoweredstick.code.handlers.PlayerTickHandler;
import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.TickRegistry;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;

public class CommonProxy
{
public void registerHandlers()
{
	TickRegistry.registerTickHandler(new PlayerTickHandler(), Side.SERVER);
}
}

 

Client Proxy

import cpw.mods.fml.common.registry.TickRegistry;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;
import mods.gaspoweredstick.code.common.CommonProxy;
import mods.gaspoweredstick.code.handlers.PlayerTickHandler;

public class ClientProxy extends CommonProxy
{
@Override
public void registerHandlers()
{
	TickRegistry.registerTickHandler(new PlayerTickHandler(), Side.SERVER);
	TickRegistry.registerTickHandler(new PlayerTickHandler(), Side.CLIENT);
}

}

[Yagoki]

you need to set it in the onArmorUpdateTick method in the armor's item class.

doesn't disable after the armor has been removed...

[Moritz]

Ask the Gravitysuit maker how he solved the problem.

Maybe he has a way. And if you want a realistic Flying (like with a jetpack)

than you could look into the IC2 Sources they have it.

 

The bad thing is google which comes at 1.4 (maybe bevor) so you only can get the 1.2 source^^ better than nothing^^"

[TheAraulin]

I fixed it... The first time when i had it based off of Yagoki's classes I didn't realize the armor was based off of one class when we have individual classes for them... Thanks for you help!!1
