Getting a block and removing it

Hi there, I'm having some trouble figuring out a way to get the location of a block and then set it to nothing (the setting the block isn't the hard part, it's the getting of the blocks location that is an issue)

I need to get the blocks d, dn, ds, de, dw, etc etc from the onClick event, and use them in the onInventoryClick method. I have no real clue how to do this, but I might be looking over a simple solution.

Code:

@EventHandler
    public void onClick(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
        if (event.getAction() != Action.LEFT_CLICK_BLOCK)
            return;
        if (event.getItem() == null)
            return;
        if (event.getItem().getType().equals(AIR))
            return;

        Player p = event.getPlayer();
        ItemStack inHand = p.getItemInHand();

        /*
         * if (inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase().contains("sword") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase().contains("axe") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase().contains("spade") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase().contains("helmet") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase() .contains("chestplate") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase().contains("tunic") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase() .contains("leggings") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase().contains("boots") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase().contains("hoe") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase().contains("bow") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase().contains("book") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase().contains("flint") &&
         * inHand.getType().toString().toLowerCase().contains("shears")) {
         */

        Block c = event.getClickedBlock();
        Block d = c.getRelative(DOWN);
        Block dn = d.getRelative(NORTH);
        Block ds = d.getRelative(SOUTH);
        Block de = d.getRelative(EAST);
        Block dw = d.getRelative(WEST);
        Block dnw = dn.getRelative(WEST);
        Block dne = dn.getRelative(EAST);
        Block dsw = ds.getRelative(WEST);
        Block dse = ds.getRelative(EAST);
        Block dd = d.getRelative(DOWN);
        Block ddn = dn.getRelative(DOWN);
        Block dds = ds.getRelative(DOWN);
        Block dde = de.getRelative(DOWN);
        Block ddw = dw.getRelative(DOWN);
        Block ddnw = dnw.getRelative(DOWN);
        Block ddne = dne.getRelative(DOWN);
        Block ddsw = dsw.getRelative(DOWN);
        Block ddse = dse.getRelative(DOWN);

        if (c.getType().equals(ENCHANTMENT_TABLE) && d.getType().equals(BEACON)
        /*
         * && dn.equals(REDSTONE_WIRE) && ds.equals(REDSTONE_WIRE) &&
         * dw.equals(REDSTONE_WIRE) && de.equals(REDSTONE_WIRE) &&
         * dnw.equals(REDSTONE_TORCH_ON) && dne.equals(REDSTONE_TORCH_ON) &&
         * dsw.equals(REDSTONE_TORCH_ON) && dse.equals(REDSTONE_TORCH_ON) &&
         * dd.equals(DIAMOND_BLOCK) && ddn.equals(GOLD_BLOCK) &&
         * dds.equals(GOLD_BLOCK) && ddw.equals(GOLD_BLOCK) &&
         * dde.equals(GOLD_BLOCK) && ddnw.equals(IRON_BLOCK) &&
         * ddne.equals(IRON_BLOCK) && ddsw.equals(IRON_BLOCK) &&
         * ddse.equals(IRON_BLOCK)

As always, help is much appreciated!!

Code:

            Block b = event.getClickedBlock();
            Location loc = b.getLocation();

? is that something that you looked for?

 

Using that in the onInventoryClick event isn't going to do anything, as it's not getting a block

 

@GamerBah Ah, I thought you ment that you wanted the location out of the right-clicked block with Interact event. Hmm, try:

Code:

ItemStack itemStack = event.getCurrentItem();

I know that we're not casting block, but a block that's not placed is a ItemStack. ^ So that should get the clicked item/block/itemstack...

EDIT: And ItemStack doesn''t have a location, so why would you need the location of a item/block in the inventory? Do you mean like which slot it's in? I've got no clue.

@GamerBah

 

To explain better, the block I clicked in the onClick event needs to be used in the onInventoryClick event, but I have no way of getting it to the onInventoryClick

 

@GamerBah Umm, I've got no clue how you can do this..

 

Still looking for a solution

 

@GamerBah
Store the data in a HashMap or similar?
