Hello, I'm an in-experienced java developer who doesn't know what the f*ck I'm doing. I'm making this issue under the request of a discord member within the Impact Server.

I'm trying to use the BaritoneAPI within a forge mod (1.12.2) however I get this error when executing the following code:

IBaritoneProvider provider = BaritoneAPI.getProvider();
IBaritone baritone = provider.getPrimaryBaritone(); ICustomGoalProcess process = baritone.getCustomGoalProcess();
process.setGoal(new GoalBlock(x, y, z));
process.path();

 java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: ain
 	at baritone.api.Settings.<init>(Unknown Source)
 	at baritone.api.BaritoneAPI.<clinit>(Unknown Source)
 	at shd.bachitone.net.BachitoneServer.clientHandler(BachitoneServer.java:250)

 	at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:418)
 	at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:351)
 	... 6 more
 Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

I presume that is cause by importing BaritoneAPI or using BaritoneAPI.getProvider()) without baritone within my classpath? (I have no idea what I'm doing)
I'm using the baritione-api-forge.1.2.13.jar within my project libraries, but If i place the standalone or standalone-forge within my libraries it does not work, and If I place any baritone jar, forge or not within the mods directory I get more errors.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Final checklist

• [ x ] I know how to properly use checkboxes
• [ x ] I have not used any OwO's or UwU's in this issue.

Because you're using a jar with obfuscated mappings against a testing development, clearly not obfuscated.

So how would I fix this? From my limited knowledge, obfuscation takes functions/classes and renames them to smaller terms. Would I de-obfuscate the jar, How would that happen?

Um, don't run the obfuscated jar, or disable obfuscation in your build.gradle entirely

gradlew jar.....

I'm having the same issue using forge-api or unoptimized
baritone is included via compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar']) in build.gradle (jar is in libs/)
im also new with forge

Just generate a jar without obfuscated mapping using gradlew jar and use that one as dependency???

Duplicate of #853 iirc.

still crashing but its a different bug lol so fixed i guess?
I'll open a new question
