mcpil's Issues

Question: Data folder location?

So I was curious about where the Minecraft Pi texture files were so I could learn more about modding.
The question is, where is the folder with all the textures? Is it in an operating system folder?

GamersSMP Removal

As I am unable to run 2 Minecraft servers at once, I have already made the decision to close down the Gamers SMP server. It is sad, but it needs to happen so I can build a bigger community. Thank you.

[Bug]

Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.
When installed from PiApps and the MCPIL launcher run it error on load....
the main.log shows this..

Pulling minecraft-pi (thebrokenrail/minecraft-pi-reborn:client)...
client: Pulling from thebrokenrail/minecraft-pi-reborn

The folder it is looking for in tmp is empty.

If tried manually installing on a Pi4 Debian Buster (updated as instructions) when trying to install the .deb package
sudo dpkg -i minecraft-pi-reborn-native_1.0.0.20210228.2107_all.deb

I get

[Feature Request] Add desktop icon

MCPIL doesn't have a icon in taskbar/window for me on xfce4/twisterOS. Add one maybe? (Also we sorta need this along with mcpirdl to be added to TwisterOS)

TK deprecation

DEPRECATION WARNING: The system version of Tk is deprecated and may be removed in a future release. Please don't rely on it. Set TK_SILENCE_DEPRECATION=1 to suppress this warning.

the proxy is delaying the start of the launcher

Also when the internet is off it takes eve n longer! Ill try to fix this with a check of internet connection. I think that happens because the proxy is tryng to connect to the server.

Can't Craft in Minecraft without Touch GUI

Describe the bug
So whenever I play Minecraft without the touch GUI, for some reason, I can't craft anything without a crafting table, since the "Craft" button doesn't appear when I open my inventory. Even with an item to use in crafting, I can't somehow find the "Craft" button on the screen.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Chop down a tree
2. Open the inventory
3. Look for the "Craft" button
   Expected behavior
   Crafting is a very essential part of Minecraft and is even included in the game's title. Without crafting, it is impossible to build houses out of wooden planks and prevents you from using tools to continue on with the game.

Screenshots
Here is a screenshot of the missing "Craft" button.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Raspberry Pi OS
• MCPIL Version 0.1.9

Additional context
Although there is nothing else wrong with the touch GUI, I recommend the health bar be placed on top of the items bar for a more desktop experience for Minecraft.

Proxy doesn't reload when changing IP

When you open mcpil, and change the server ip in the multiplayer tab, then launch mcpi, no servers show up. You have to close mcpil then reopen it for the proxy to connect.

Can't install MCPIL from .deb file and broken code

I have some issues:

1. The package python3-ttkthemes doesn't exist, period.
2. We broke the launcher script, probably through the date-determined splashes/titles

You might want to:

1. Fix the dependencies
2. Roll the release back to before the April Fools' title swap update if possible

Gamer's SMP

GRAND OPENING
I have just begun hosting a server by the name: Gamer's SMP, a server where every player has a goal to survive together.
This server is to run from 10 AM to 10 PM ET, so for 12 hours, players have the opportunity to build together, fight together, and of course, play together.

The server's IP address is CENSORED. (Isn't Minecraft just beautiful?)

Port is, of course, 19132.
Have fun!

Oh, I just forgot!
Rules:

1. No Griefing
2. No Swearing
3. No Abusing Glitches (Unless it doesn't affect other players)
4. This is not anarchy. This means that you must abide by the rules.

every click on the list makes the screen flash black for a second

[Bug] Can't connect to servers

ttk themes is not availabe in rpis repos

Maybe change smething incontrol?? It works though wih the source, with the themes installed via pip. That is wht 0.2.0rc1 refused to install even with. Pip.

launch button no work

[Enhancement] Create a install script

This is a great thing, but kind of hard to install, so what about a .sh that installs mcpi-docker and mcpil-r, to ease the process.

How can i help?

This looks like an interesting project... How can i help
