Message on Join

Hello, I'm attempting to send a message to the player when they log in using a separate class for sending messages.

Eclipse nor the server give out errors; the message just doesn't send.

Within my main class for the plugin:

Code:

@EventHandler
public void onPlayerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent event) {
Player newplayer = event.getPlayer();
new ChatMessages().joinMessage(newplayer);
}

Within my class "ChatMessages" dedicated to sending out chat messages:

Code:

public class ChatMessages { 
public void joinMessage(Player receiver) {
receiver.sendMessage("Test!");
}
}

As always, your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks all

 

try this

OnPlayer

Code:

@EventHandler
public void onPlayerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent event) {
    Player GetPlayer = event.getPlayer();
    ChatMessages.joinMessage(GetPlayer);
}

Removed the "new"

ChatMessage

Code:

    public class ChatMessages {
        public static void joinMessage(Player receiver) {
        receiver.sendMessage("Test!");
        }
        }

Needed to add the "static" flag

 

Yuck static, though you seem to at least use it a bit correct.

MattKan You probably forgot

Code:

Bukkit.getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this)

in onEnable. Also, don't forget to put

Code:

implements Listener

after

Code:

public class YourMainClass extends JavaPlugin
