Custom GUI Names? (Non-Chest)

As you might know, in recent versions of minecraft, its possible to have inventories with custom names. If you rename a workbench in an anvil, then place it, when you open the workbench it will be titled whatever you renamed it to.
(Also works with hoppers, dispensers, droppers, enchanting tables, etc.)

I have been trying to do this with craftbukkit, but it doesnt seem to work unless you have a TileEntity object.

However, I'm trying to create a virtual named furnace. (Bukkit.createInventory). Does anyone know if this is possible?

Yes, it is definitely impossible with the bukkit API. However, it is likely possible to do it using NMS or CraftBukkit code

bobacadodl Look into https://github.com/Bukkit/CraftBukk...a/net/minecraft/server/TileEntityFurnace.java
Looks like the field o is its name. Edit, a ContainerFurnace has the TileEntityFurnace in it. CraftFurnace has the ContainerFurnace in its inventory field (inherited from CraftInventory)

 

Thanks! Didn't notice the CraftFurnace had a TileEntityFurnace as its inventory field. Should be able to get it working now

Unfortunately, this didnt work. Bukkit.createInventory() doesnt create a CraftFurnace, so I still cant figure out how to get the TileEntityFurnace. It seems to create a CraftInventoryCustom instead.

 

bobacadodl Looking at CraftBukkit's source, TileEntityFurnace has a public constructor, you could attempt to create your own, then create your own CraftInventoryFurnace with it, then open that CraftInventoryFurnace to the Player (since it implements FurnaceInventory, which implements Inventory)

I made a ProtocolLib handler for this too

Code:java

public YourClassNameHere(){
  ProtocolLibrary.getProtocolManager().addPacketListener(new PacketListener(){
   public Plugin getPlugin() {return Bukkit.getPluginManager().getPlugin("YourPluginNameHere");}
   public ListeningWhitelist getReceivingWhitelist() {return ListeningWhitelist.newBuilder().gamePhase(GamePhase.PLAYING).highest().types(PacketType.Play.Server.OPEN_WINDOW).build();}
   public ListeningWhitelist getSendingWhitelist() {return ListeningWhitelist.newBuilder().gamePhase(GamePhase.PLAYING).highest().types(PacketType.Play.Server.OPEN_WINDOW).build();}
   public void onPacketReceiving(PacketEvent e) {return;}
   @Override
   public void onPacketSending(PacketEvent e) {
    if (!(e.getPacket().getType() == PacketType.Play.Server.OPEN_WINDOW)) return;
    PacketContainer wrapper = e.getPacket();
    wrapper.getStrings().writeSafely(0,invTitle);
    e.setPacket(wrapper);
    setMenuTitle = false;
   }
 
  });
 }
 String invTitle = "Custom Furnace Name";
 boolean setMenuTitle = true;
 public InventoryView openCustomFurnace(Player p){
  setMenuTitle = true;
  return p.openInventory(Bukkit.createInventory(null,InventoryType.FURNACE));
 }

NOTE:
This is untested!

 

Not a bad idea, I might end up doing this if necessary, although it would be nice to have a dependency-free way of doing this
