Possible Solution to Our NBT Item woes #124

Closed MercuriusXeno closed 9 years ago

MercuriusXeno commented 9 years ago

Create a UUID for the NBT tag of all of our items and link that to a reliquary save file that stores the item's NBT data in a list of other item's nbt stack tags. This way, the item nbt tag never changes (except when first created) and all the item data is stored off-site, meaning the item won't flicker/cycle when the nbt tag changes, and the name won't popup.

This will require a somewhat elaborate server-to-client update handler to take care of syncing the clientside NBT to server, and will also change the way we save our NBT data. Also, we'll need a method to "garbage collect" any items which can be potentially destroyed so that we're not storing invalid UUIDs in the list (mostly for cleanliness, saving negligible space).

Here's some examples of using WorldSaveData to create an "NBT Driver" similar to what I'm envisioning, courtesy of chylex:

This was a tremendous success. I will now begin converting all our items to using it.

Items are all converted, needs testing, but code-complete.
