[Solved] [1.16.5] Get World by RegistryKey<World> Client Side


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

So I am adding in features from previous versions of my mod from previous MC versions. One of these features is to access a block that is in another dimension from the players current dimension. Previously I used:SD

DimensionManager.getWorld(int dimensionId);

This allowed both Client and Server side to access without a problem.

 

In 1.16.3 and forward this DimensionManager class is no longer in Forge so I now use:

ServerLifecycleHooks.getCurrentServer().getWorld(RegistryKey<World> dimension);

However this only works Server side, which is fine for my uses up till this point.

So I'm asking if there is a similar method but for the Client? Something that can retrieve the ClientWorld for a specified RegistryKey<World>?

 

Many thanks in advance.

No, it did not. The client only has its current dimension. DimensionManager in older versions is a server-only concept and accessing it from the client will not work correctly (it causes threading issues in single player and will flat out not work on an actual server).

 

No. The client only has its current dimension loaded and there is no way to access data in other dimensions (the data is stored on the server after all). You need to send any needed data to the client using a custom packet.

Okay, I misunderstood my old code then. Or I was doing things wrong... more likely for me to be honest. Ill have to look into server -> client packets. Its for a Screen that changes Widgets/Buttons depending on the other dimensions block information.

Thanks for your help!

    • Upon starting the server I get; [main/ERROR] [minecraft/Main]: Failed to start the minecraft server net.minecraftforge.fml.LoadingFailedException: Loading errors encountered: [     Framework (framework) has failed to load correctly §7java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/minecraft/client/gui/components/toasts/Toast ] I suspect there is a (possibly a few) client-only mods installed on my server. Any help would be appreciated! (Yes I know there are a lot of mods...) Here is the crash log:   https://paste.ee/p/pRz5mhMl#s=0
    • That's basically what the failure does, my apologies for failing to specify.  It just tries again on the next tick until it detects the entities for that chunk are loaded, and then tries to load the entity.  From there it gets into different failure states depending on what goes wrong, but in short, if the entity fails to load once the entity list becomes available, the request is cleared and must be resubmitted by the end user.  There should be few cases where that actually happens. Yes, that is my understanding of forceloading.  That's why on a successful summon, it removes the forceload.  Otherwise it does just leave the chunks loaded long term. Thank you for your help, any knowledge is useful!  I don't often mess with forceloading and my prior experience is 1.16 so I'm also a bit out of my depth haha.
    • I will have to do more research about 1.18 chunk loading. You were unclear about how your code manages with the entity load failure. If you simply used a loop, I suggest submitting a tick task to the next tick which does the same thing, checking if the entities are loaded and if so teleporting the right one else submitting another tick task etc. Also I think forceloading permanently force loads the chunk, and it only starts to unload when you make a subsequent call to mark the chunk as not forceloaded. I may be completely wrong, I dont know much about 1.18, most of my experience is 1.20. Good luck I hope you figure it out after all this time 😅
    • i managed to fix it by reinstalling the modpack and re-add all the extra mods I've had previously.
