When a player right clicks a item keep subtracting hunger

Im making a plugin where people use their Hunger bar as mana and I need to make it so if a player has right clicked an Item it subtracts his hunger bars but when he right clicks again it keeps going down from there until it reaches 0 i've tried many ways and all I know is to use player.setFoodlevel() can someone help me? P.S: I don't want to use FoodChangeEvent please preferable have me keep using PlayerInteractEvent.

Just check when the player clicks the block, check it 10 times, and set his food level -1 every time.

That's one way you can do it but there's many others.

 

Opacification I'm sorry I'm very fluent in java but can you please take the time to give me a line of code?

 

Code:

    @EventHandler
    public void onRightClick (PlayerInteractEvent ev) {
        if (ev.getAction().equals(Action.RIGHT_CLICK_AIR) || ev.getAction().equals(Action.RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK)) {     
            if (ev.getItem().getType().equals(Material.ANVIL)) {
                ev.getPlayer().setFoodLevel(ev.getPlayer().getFoodLevel() - 1);
            }
        }
    }

I think this should work if a player right clicks with an anvil in hand on the air or a block of any type. I'm not taking the time to check it though

 

ev.getItem() returns the item in the players hand.

ev.getClickedBlock() is what you're looking for.

 

What I said is more than enough to figure it out, spoon feeding you code isn't going to help you learn Bukkit API.

Really? I thought he was asking when the player fight clicks an item in hand, but maybe I interpreted it wrong.

 

Oh, now that I read the main post it could be interpreted as either one. Yours is probably more right though.

 

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure its something like this.

Code:java

Player player = (Player) event.getPlayer();
player.setFoodLevel(player.getFoodLevel() - 5);

 

You're subtracting 5 hunger slots not 1, plus you didn't get the event or the action when right clicking a block.

 

That was just an example. I'm pretty sure he can easily implement this into a playerinteractevent.

 

BeefyPlays Thank you very much that solved my problem

 

Note the: 'correct me if i'm wrong' part.
