playEffect on player location not exact

Hi,
On command "/test" i'm playing an effect.

Code:java

player.getWorld().playEffect(player.getLocation(), Effect.POTION_BREAK, 1, 1);

but in game, the posion effect IS NOT playing on the EXACT location of the player. It's always playing on the floored value of the location (if player's x is 500.7, it's playing on 500)

Any fix or ideas?

 

play it at the location player.getEyeLocation(); i think that's the method

 

The same issue

 

can i see your new code

 

pope_on_dope

Code:java

player.getWorld().playEffect(player.getEyeLocation(), Effect.POTION_BREAK, 1);

 

try a different effect and tell me what happens

 

pope_on_dope Always the same!

 

WhatAaCow Try doing it without the second 1 (As that makes it within a radius)

 

Create a new location where the y is 1 block higher than the player's location and do it at that location.

 

xTigerRebornx read Javadoc, the 1 is a data (this value dosn't make difference)
Blah1 won't change something (tested and it logic that it doesn't change anything!)

 

WhatAaCow Set it like 20 blocks up just to make sure you're not making a weird error.

 

WhatAaCow I did read the javadocs, the second 1 (from your OP) is a radius.

 

xTigerRebornx it isn't. "data - a data bit needed for some effects" under playEffects explanation
Blah1 yeah, but doesn't change something :/

 

WhatAaCow playEffect(Location location, Effect effect, int data, int radius)

Data was the first one, I said the second 1, which was a radius

 

xTigerRebornx wups sorry yeah tested with both no chance

 

Its because your parameters are wrong.

Your data should be: http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Potions for the corresponding potion effect.

player.playEffect(player.getLocation(), Effect.POTION_BREAK, 8292 /*Poison*/,1);

 

CeramicTitan No my parameters are correct. You can use 1-... or 8292-82.. . And it doesn't change something :/

 

effects play on full blocks only, not halfway through 2 (always on x.5 y.5, z.5)
Unless they updated somethign ofcourse, which im not aware of

 

but if you throw a splash potion, it won't be on full blocks
