signs

hello,

does someone know how to get the location of the block where the sign is on.(on the side)

thanks.

 

Do you use an Event for this?

Code:java

Block getBlockBelow = event.getPlayer().getWorld().getBlockAt(
event.getPlayer().getLocation().getBlockX(),
event.getPlayer().getLocation().getBlockY() -1,
event.getPlayer().getLocation().getBlockZ());

In this case getBlockBelow.getType() will tell you which kind of Block under your Block is.
This could be used for e.g. in a BlockBreakEvent or something where you interact with the Block above the requested one.

 

thanks

but how do i get a sign that is on the side of a block and not on top of a block

On top would be Material.SIGN_POST and on a wall would be Material.WALL_SIGN

Code:java

Block getBlockBelow = event.getPlayer().getWorld().getBlockAt(
event.getPlayer().getLocation().getBlockX(),
event.getPlayer().getLocation().getBlockY() -1,
event.getPlayer().getLocation().getBlockZ());
if (getBlockBelow.getType() == Material.WALL_SIGN) {
// Your code here.
}
