Outputting something than expected!

It should say '[PW] SnowBallGuy has hit HitPlayer'
but it says:
'HitPlayer has died'
'[PW] CraftPlayer{name=RealNameHere} has hit HitPlayer'

1. How do I get the 'CraftPlayer{name=RealNameHere}' to become JustTheirName.
2. Stop double message. Sometimes this becomes 3 messages...

UPDATE: Added your code TheTrixsta, but now it doesn't print anything out in-game.
No errors. It just does nothing. (Updated code below in GitHub)

Here's the GitPage:

Thanks, Amos.

 

Cancel the death message through the PlayerDeathEvent, then just set the death message to null.

Where does the '0.0' come from?

Edit: Ok I see

Code:java

 
@EventHandler
public void onPaintballHit(EntityDamageByEntityEvent event) {
if (e.getEntity() instanceof Player && e.getDamager() instanceof Snowball) {
Player ent = (Player) e.getEntity();
Snowball damager = (Player) e.getDamager();
if (damager.getShooter() instanceof Player) {
Player shooter = (Player) damager.getShooter();
ent.setHealth(0);
ent.getServer().broadcastMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "[PW]" + ChatColor.RED + shooter.getName() + ChatColor.GRAY + " Has hit " + ChatColor.RED + ent.getName());
}
}
}
 

 

The 0.0 used to come from the get.Damage() I fixed it, by replacing it with get.Damager()

Got a fix for the 'CraftSnowBall' issue?

 

what do you want to do with CraftSnowBall? Why not just use Snowball

 

I want it to say somthing like:
[PW] DJ_Amos123 has hit The_Ms
But 'DJ_Amos123' is replaced with CraftSnowBall, I have no idea why..

 

Instead of e.getDamager() you need to do something along the lines of e.getDamager().getType().toString() which should give you 'snowball'

To get the thrower's name, you need projectile.getShooter().getName() (after making sure the shooter is in fact a player)

Bump

 

You could also set the death message to what you are trying to broadcast.
For the problem that it prints Craftplayer{etc}, that shouldn't happen and might be a bug in bukkit ?

You should also register your class as a listener like this in your onEnable method:

Code:

this.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);

EDIT: I send a pull request on github that will probably solve your problems. (not sure though, it has been a while since I actively developed plugins)
