[Any] [SOLVED] Get UUID


Bektor

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I'm currently wondering how to get the UUID of the player, as there are several methods which return a UUID,

like

player.getGameProfile().getId()
player.getPersistentID()
player.getUniqueID()
player.getUUID(player.getGameProfile())
player.getOfflineUUID(username)

 

As there are so many different methods, I am wondering which one I should use to store the owner of a block in the tileentity, so that only this owner can access the block.

I would also like to know the difference between all those methods and how those methods handle stuff like for example offline mod when you don't have a internet connection.

 

Thx in advance.

EntityPlayer.getUUID(GameProfile) returns the UUID of the profile if present, otherwise reroutes to EntityPlayer.getOfflineUUID(String).

EntityPlayer.getOfflineUUID(String) returns a UUID generated from a username provided prefixed with OfflinePlayer.

Entity::getPersistentID and Entity::getUniqueID both return the same in case of EntityPlayer - and that would be the result of EntityPlayer.getUUID(GameProfile).

GameProfile::getId returns the UUID of the profile, or null if it is not present(could not connect to Mojang's servers).

 

So there are really 2 cases:

  1. The player is logged in and in that case return the UUID from Mojang's servers 
  2. The player is not logged in and in that case return a UUID generated based on their name.

So all I have to do is call either Entity::getPersistentID or Entity::getUniqueID?

Also, in case of EntityPlayer, those methods return the same, but what would be the difference if it is no player?

Yes, that would be the best way as you can't get null with that method.

Depends on the entity in question. Default implementation provided by Entity returns the same in both of these methods and the default implementation is the only one used by vanilla as far as I am aware. Entity::getUniqueID is used everywhere by vanilla and Entity::getPersistentID is only used by forge. Both of those methods can be overriden, so I can't tell how different mods use/override them.

    • They were already updated, and just to double check I even did a cleanup and fresh update from that same page. I'm quite sure drivers are not the problem here. 
    • i tried downloading the drivers but it says no AMD graphics hardware has been detected    
    • Update your AMD/ATI drivers - get the drivers from their website - do not update via system  
    • As the title says i keep on crashing on forge 1.20.1 even without any mods downloaded, i have the latest drivers (nvidia) and vanilla minecraft works perfectly fine for me logs: https://pastebin.com/5UR01yG9
    • Hello everyone, I'm making this post to seek help for my modded block, It's a special block called FrozenBlock supposed to take the place of an old block, then after a set amount of ticks, it's supposed to revert its Block State, Entity, data... to the old block like this :  The problem I have is that the system breaks when handling multi blocks (I tried some fix but none of them worked) :  The bug I have identified is that the function "setOldBlockFields" in the item's "setFrozenBlock" function gets called once for the 1st block of multiblock getting frozen (as it should), but gets called a second time BEFORE creating the first FrozenBlock with the data of the 1st block, hence giving the same data to the two FrozenBlock :   Old Block Fields set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=head] BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@73681674 BlockEntityData : id:"minecraft:bed",x:3,y:-60,z:-6} Old Block Fields set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} Frozen Block Entity set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockPos{x=3, y=-60, z=-6} BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} Frozen Block Entity set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockPos{x=2, y=-60, z=-6} BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} here is the code inside my custom "freeze" item :    @Override     public @NotNull InteractionResult useOn(@NotNull UseOnContext pContext) {         if (!pContext.getLevel().isClientSide() && pContext.getHand() == InteractionHand.MAIN_HAND) {             BlockPos blockPos = pContext.getClickedPos();             BlockPos secondBlockPos = getMultiblockPos(blockPos, pContext.getLevel().getBlockState(blockPos));             if (secondBlockPos != null) {                 createFrozenBlock(pContext, secondBlockPos);             }             createFrozenBlock(pContext, blockPos);             return InteractionResult.SUCCESS;         }         return super.useOn(pContext);     }     public static void createFrozenBlock(UseOnContext pContext, BlockPos blockPos) {         BlockState oldState = pContext.getLevel().getBlockState(blockPos);         BlockEntity oldBlockEntity = oldState.hasBlockEntity() ? pContext.getLevel().getBlockEntity(blockPos) : null;         CompoundTag oldBlockEntityData = oldState.hasBlockEntity() ? oldBlockEntity.serializeNBT() : null;         if (oldBlockEntity != null) {             pContext.getLevel().removeBlockEntity(blockPos);         }         BlockState FrozenBlock = setFrozenBlock(oldState, oldBlockEntity, oldBlockEntityData);         pContext.getLevel().setBlockAndUpdate(blockPos, FrozenBlock);     }     public static BlockState setFrozenBlock(BlockState blockState, @Nullable BlockEntity blockEntity, @Nullable CompoundTag blockEntityData) {         BlockState FrozenBlock = BlockRegister.FROZEN_BLOCK.get().defaultBlockState();         ((FrozenBlock) FrozenBlock.getBlock()).setOldBlockFields(blockState, blockEntity, blockEntityData);         return FrozenBlock;     }
