Inject EntityPlayerSP?

[Alex_Wells]

Hey there! I'm trying to hook a method of EntityPlayerSP using coremod, but for some reason

public byte[] transform(String name, String transformedName, byte[] bytes)

is not getting called with needed class name (net.minecraft.client.entity.EntityPlayerSP), but is getting called with all other class names (also modifying ItemPotion's method, and it works great). Here's the full code, if needed:

public class ClassTransformer implements IClassTransformer
{
    private Map<String, List<AbstractMethodTransformer>> methodTransformers = new HashMap<>();

    public ClassTransformer() {
        addMethodTransformer(new HasEffectMethodTransformer());
        addMethodTransformer(new ReachInfoClassTransformer());
    }

    public void addMethodTransformer(AbstractMethodTransformer transformer) {
        String className = transformer.getClassName();

        addMethodTransformerByName(className, transformer);
        addMethodTransformerByName(Obfuscations.get(className), transformer);
    }

    private void addMethodTransformerByName(String name, AbstractMethodTransformer transformer) {
        methodTransformers.computeIfAbsent(name, s -> new ArrayList<>()).add(transformer);
    }

    public byte[] transform(String name, String transformedName, byte[] bytes)
    {
        // DEBUG
        if(name.contains("Player") || transformedName.contains("Player"))
            System.out.println(name + " --- " + transformedName);


        if(! methodTransformers.containsKey(transformedName)) {
            return bytes;
        }

        System.out.println("Contains key: " + name + ", " + transformedName);

        List<AbstractMethodTransformer> transformers = methodTransformers.get(transformedName);

        ClassReader classReader = new ClassReader(bytes);
        ClassNode classNode = new ClassNode();
        ClassWriter classWriter = new ClassWriter(ClassWriter.COMPUTE_FRAMES);
        classReader.accept(classNode, 0);

        for (MethodNode method : classNode.methods)
        {
            for(AbstractMethodTransformer transformer : transformers) {
                String mappedMethodName = FMLDeobfuscatingRemapper.INSTANCE.mapMethodName(classNode.name, method.name, method.desc);

                if(! Obfuscations.check(transformer.getMethodName(), mappedMethodName)) {
                    continue;
                }

                System.out.println("Found method: " + transformer.getMethodName() + " " + mappedMethodName);

                MethodReplacer methodReplacer = new MethodReplacer(classWriter, method.name, method.desc, transformer);
                classReader.accept(methodReplacer, ClassReader.EXPAND_FRAMES);
                break;
            }
        }

        return classWriter.toByteArray();
    }
}

When looking for EntityPlayerSP in the console I find nothing. What can be the problem and is there any workaround?

Don't make a coremod.

Okay. So how would I replace hasEffect method of ItemPotion class and attackEntityFrom of EntityPlayerSP class? If there's any better solution, I will definitely use it!

That depends on why you want to replace them. What effect are you trying to achieve?

Default hasEffect of ItemPotion implementation decides if glinting enchanment effect is rendered on potions or not. I want to set it to always return false.

Default attackEntityFrom doesn't emit any Forge events. In EntityLivingBase's attackEntityFrom, livingAttackEvent is emitted. I want this event to be also emitted for EntityPlayerSP, so that after this I'm able to track when player gets damage from other players.

You can overwrite the potion item using the forge registries. Just register your own implementation extending ItemPotion under the same name.

Yes, but this will break any compatibility with other mods. Am I wrong?

EntityPlayerSP::attackEntityFrom emits LivingAttackEvent already. However this won't be of much use, since the client has no idea about what caused a given damage, that is only possible on the server.

On Forge 1.8.9 latest it does not. What about damage amount and damage source, it doesn't really matter for me. The purpose of this is to send a chat message about other players reach distance on each their hit. I know it will never be precise, that it highly depends on ping, that it's not gonna always send true data. But again, I don't really care about all those

And sadly, I can't update my MC version. I would, but PVP was broken in 1.9 and most servers still use 1.8 (and even 1.7) as their main versions. Therefore, I would go for any trick to make it work

UPD: Yes, it's fixed only in 1.11 version

So will making a coremod.

 

The solution is to update.

Update isn't real. Until Minecraft rolls out 1.14/1.15, with new PVP changes, none of the servers neither their players will update. Therefore, I just can't use 1.12.

Unfortunately, I will have to overwrite EntityLivingBase::handleStatusUpdate in order to make it work. That's the only solution I see for 1.8.9.

Anyways, thanks for your help.
