[1.12.2] Persisting Player Capability Inventory Data

ChampionAsh5357 · July 12, 2018

I am trying to add a custom slot to the player inventory. I've managed to get the container and GUI working and getting the visual to show up in game. However, I cannot seem to manage to keep the inventory persistent between sessions. I've been playing with the code in multiple ways, but I cannot seem to find a working solution. I might be overlooking something major and just not be noticing it. Any help is appreciated.

Custom Player Inventory Capability:

You need to attach the capability to the Entity, not to the inventory. Also, read this documentation.

It is also recommended when adding something to the players inventory gui/container you do it through tabs(the way creative tabs work, keeps intermod compatibility).

Ah, that might help. For some reason I thought that attaching it to the inventory meant that it was going to be attached to the player. I've fixed that now. However, now I seem to be getting a NullPointerException when the writeToNBT function is being called.

I did, and I know I need to sync the server to the client data. However, I want to get rid of all the errors first so that it at least saves to server before I start implementing the client syncing.

I was going to do that as soon as I finished getting it working properly.

Inserting a list into itself seems like a good plan.

You did not read and understand the forge documentation.

Quote

CapabilityManager.INSTANCE.register(capability interface class, storage, default implementation factory);

Also, you are using the deprecated method of registering, use the factory version.

I did read the forge documentation. Understanding it, maybe. From my understanding, I do not see why I can't create the inventory with an implementation of ICapabilitySerializable (which is what I did originally) and then just attach the capability via that to the player. As far as I know through NBT checking, the player inventory does save on the server side and I can see it. The problem I actually have is with loading it to the client which is actually what I didn't do when I made this thread. However, I do not really know what event or tick handler I should notify to sync the data already stored in the NBT to the client. I tried a couple of ways using EntityJoinWorldEvent and PlayerEvent.StartTracking, but I could not manage to get them to work. So that would actually be the actual issue I'm having as of this moment. I will repost my inventory and network handler along with the event class. If you have any recommendation on how I would do that, I would be interested to hear.

However, I do not really know what event or tick handler I should notify to sync the data already stored in the NBT to the client.

When you open the inventory or the inventory is accessed the contents need to be synced, it is not necessarily an event handler you need to use. Note the container class should automatically sync its contents to the client from Container#detectAndSendChanges

You very well could, but you shouldn't extend InventoryPlayer or any IInventory, instead just use an IItemHandler implementation.

PlayerEvent.StartTracking

For future reference please read the javadoc above things before you use them.

Quote

Fired when an Entity is started to be "tracked" by this player (the player receives updates about this entity, e.g. motion).

Ok. I think I'm going to rewrite everything so that it takes out the IInventory use and just add it on as a tab instead of just putting it off. That way it should get everything working properly and stick with the conventions. Do I need to create a class extended from ItemStackHandler then, or can I just call IItemHandler? I think I only need to store the slot I'm adding if the player inventory does it manually.

I was reading the documentation of the deprecated IEntityExtenedProperties to see if that could potentially work with what I had before.

IItemHandler is an interface that ItemStackHandler implements. An instance of ItemStackHandler should work fine for this case.

So, just to make sure I understand everything correctly. Use an instance of ItemStackHandler to attach to the player to hold the inventory information. Then when creating the container and gui use that same instance to store the custom slots added to the player. Then to call that instance from the gui handler I would just use player.getCapability(<? extends ItemStackHandler>, null); for calling it?

No, you cannot attach an CapabilityItemHandler.ITEM_HANDLER_CAPABILITY to the player as there is already one, but you can make your own capability that uses IItemHandler as its data(I believe. someone will correct me if I am wrong). And then attach this capability in AttachCapabilityEvent<Entity> to the player. Then reference it by EntityPlayer#getCapability

diesieben07 · July 18, 2018

Only one capability can be registered for each class. So you would need you make your own interface.

ChampionAsh5357 · July 19, 2018

I tried using getSlotTexture to create a back image for the slot similar to the offhand slot and it comes up with a null texture even though the texture is defined at the place I set it to. Also, when I try to give the player an item, it only detects that once the extended inventory has been opened.

No, you cannot attach an CapabilityItemHandler.ITEM_HANDLER_CAPABILITY to the player as there is already one, but you can make your own capability that uses IItemHandler as its data(I believe. someone will correct me if I am wrong). And then attach this capability in AttachCapabilityEvent<Entity> to the player. Then reference it by EntityPlayer#getCapability

Okay, I created everything so that it works properly. The only problem I have left is that when I first load up the world, the data in the slot does not get loaded until I open up the tab with it. Since I created a KeyBinding to change the item with what the player has in hand, the data from the slot has to be loaded by the time the entity joins the world.

Then it is pretty obvious what you have to do if this is an actual problem. Sync it when the player joins the world with a custom packet.

I realized that after posting it. So I tried with the EntityJoinWorldEvent and I check if the entity joined is the player. I got the server information and tried to sync it with the client. However, it only works one time on login and then the packet throws a NullPointerException somehow when I add the scheduled task. I also tried with PlayerEvent.PlayerLoggedInEvent with the same issue.

NullPointerException somehow when I add the scheduled task.

Can I see the crash, kinda hard to debug without it.

It's not a crash, the packet just throws an exception; the game still runs because the only thing it does it try and load the slot. If it fails then it's just air until I load it via opening the custom inventory.

The line it is referring to, since I didn't post the entire packet class, is the line where I set the ItemStack in the slot.

Use the debugger and find out what is null

The player was returning null because I called it in the beginning of the message. The player might not have been loaded yet so it couldn't set it. I moved the EntityPlayerSP inside the addScheduledTask and now everything works. Thank you for taking the time to help me do this.

No problem, glad you got it working.
