Help with config paths

So the plugin I'm using needs this path from a command

Code:

target = Bukkit.getPlayer(args[2]);
targetuuid = target.getUniqueId().toString();

"Cells." + owns + ".Members." + targetuuid

In the example above I need the command arguments as a path, so I couldn't get them in this example. So I tried doing this:

Code:

String muuid1 = getConfig().getString("Cells." + owns + ".Members.One");
String muuid2 = getConfig().getString("Cells." + owns + ".Members.Two");
String muuid3 = getConfig().getString("Cells." + owns + ".Members.Three");
                  
String member1 = getConfig().getString("Cells." + owns + ".Members.One." + muuid1);
String member2 = getConfig().getString("Cells." + owns + ".Members.Two." + muuid2);
String member3 = getConfig().getString("Cells." + owns + ".Members.Three." + muuid3);

 

@bowlerguy66, java and html/bbcode are 2 different worlds. Lol.

You need to be more specific on what the issue is rather than "this doesn't work" well, we don't know what "work" is.

 

Im trying to msg the player a name in the config. So if they did /member1 they would get the string member1 instead of printing the name, it says null.

(I also fixed the html part. I don't know what happened )

 

@bowlerguy66, the member fields are overriding the uuid fields. Start there.

 

The point of the uuid field was to use it in the member field

 

@bowlerguy66, when you set a value to a path, if you gave a value to a earlier path (ex assign a.a's value when you have things mapped to a.a.a, a.a.a will be deleted because the further mapped data acts as the value of a.a.
I really wish I could explain that in a less confusing manner.
