Sprinting with Blindness Effect

I am creating a plugin where i want the players to have the blindness potion effect and still be able to sprint.

The blindness effect currently disables the ability to sprint and i am wondering if anyone knows of a way where i can bypass that.

I have tried the PlayerToggleSprintEvent and giving it the highest priority and setting the setCanceled to false but did not work.

If anyone knows of a way i can do this or to achieve the same effect as sprinting i would appreciate it.

 

Try listening to the togglesprint event and setting the velocity to higher, or giving them a speed potion effect while "sprinting"

 

The problem is the event is not called while blind, i tested it with a simple player message which is called without the effect but not with it.

 

Ah ok.

Well I'm not sure what you can do then tbh
