[Solved]1.12.2 EntityPlayerSP can't be cast to EntityPlayer.MP


CrashDbo

Recommended Posts

I have recently began to learn to mod using Forge. I am in the process of learning about dimension travel and I ran into a problem with the code I picked out of MCJTY's dimension tutorial.

I am having trouble finding out how to make the code I have work. There seems to be a bit of knowledge I have missed as I don't understand why I am unable to cast the player to a server instance.

 

Any insight and on why this error and crash is is happening will help tremendously.

 

My two main files for the staff that has a right-click event that triggers the teleportation and the teleportation class are in my pastebin below.

ItemStaff.java

DimTeleporter.java      Error on line 43

EntityPlayerSP is not EntityPlayerMP. You cannot cast from one to another.

 

if (player.world.isRemote) {
            EntityPlayerMP entityPlayerMP = (EntityPlayerMP) player; //Game crashes here can't cast EntityPlayerSP to EntityPlayerMP

The if statement here will only be true on the client side, thus the player is SP, not MP.

Are you sure you didn't meant:

if (!player.world.isRemote)

?

1. Do not follow tutorials on YouTube, especially TechnoVision (previously called Loremaster) and HarryTalks, due to their promotion of bad practice and usage of outdated code.

2. Always post your code.

3. Never copy and paste code. You won't learn anything from doing that.

I must have misunderstood what isRemote is.

In simple words, World#isRemote returns true on the logical client side and false on the logical server side.

In your case, you want the code to run on the server side, thus you should check if World#isRemote is false.

The page also covers World#isRemote.
