Return By Death

Added a good Demo video to the Readme

Rant (kinda)

Turns out once I ship a project, devlogs after it are not recorded at all, even if they ask me to fix something. but the ship will show the second devlogs time to you only.

I wasn’t plaing to become the spifing brit , but glitches and exploting things are in my nature.

Demo Story

And I should have added the time it took for me to edit this demo, which is around 1,30 , of this 1 hour of it was consumed in learning resolve.
And the rest 30 mins in doing this bare bones editing.

Blender Render for the Icon

the render that I have attached took me 2 hours to make but my pc can’t run chrome and blender at the same time so another shame. ( IK blender)

Demo

Made some changes to how the mod works
Now the mod has two modes

if you want instant return then you have to enable immediate_respawn game rule
or else you will get the death screen telling you to return by death

there are now sfx added to the mod

tell me why the hell does minecraft have 2 distinct playsound methods one in server and one in client???

only the client one playes the sound, the server one seemed to nothig and there is no java docs suggesting to use the one over the other and when to use what

I spent 1 hour 30 mins trying to figure this out and then had to resort to asking in the fabric server for help
luckly the community was extreamly helpfull and I fixed the issue

as for the reason why its done this way:
the server method is actually the main method but it does not play the sound for the sender, since its assuemed that the sender could be code or a thing that can’t hear sound

the same method in serverlevel which you get by senderPlayer.level().playSound(@nullable except entity, source entity, SoundEvent, soundevent, SoundCategory soundCategory);

calles two method, one for the sender since we know its the player ( this is a client method in LocalPlayer which extends the AbstractClientPlayer )

and the normal server method which runs for everyone except the sender

this is all fine but tell me why is this not documented

well now it is

The biggest thing was creating the time loop, fortunatly someone had something similar done so, all I had to do was understand their code and then
implement it.

With that done, it was only a matter of some if statement that checked a timer.

the second problem was that if the timer had’nt ended but the player left the world (ie quits the game) the timer will restart again

This was easy to solve as well, since Minecraft also likes to keep track of playtime
and by using mojangs logic I created a custom stat that counted the loop timer.

The Most time was taking by making logo below, 2 hours to be exact but I was’nt able to record it cuz I forgot.

The logo represent the moibus strip : and that death is not the end but start of a new loop.
This was inspired by outer wilds with moibus studios
