GenericEventManager

GenericEventManager

@since 1.16.0

GenericEventManager is an expansion of CraftTweaker event manager, adds a method to register handler for almost all events (including native forge / mods ones). In addition, it adds event priority and receive canceled parameter, making possible to control other mod logic that listen to the same event.

Usage

events.register(IEventHandler<T> eventHandler, @Optional EventPriority priority, @Optional bool receiveCanceled)

Example

import crafttweaker.event.EntityLivingAttackedEvent;
import mods.zenutils.EventPriority;

// This event listener is registered at lowest priority and would receive canceled
// It always runs after all other event handlers no matter the event is canceled or not
events.register(function(event as EntityLivingAttackedEvent) {
    event.entity.sendMessage("The event is canceled: " ~ event.canceled);
}, EventPriority.lowest(), true);

// Old way
// This event listener is registered at normal priority
events.onEntityLivingAttacked(function(event as EntityLivingAttackedEvent) {
    event.cancel();
});

EventPriority

Defines the priority of the event listener

Package: mods.zenutils.EventPriority

5 priorities are available:

• highest
• high
• normal (default)
• low
• lowest

Note

This method directly accesses forge event internal code. Only events that simply delegate forge events can use it.

Known unavailable events:

CraftTweaker:

• PlayerLoggedIn
• PlayerLoggedOut
• PlayerSmelted

ZenUtils:

• EntityRemove
• EntityItemFall
• EntityItemDeath
