[Unsolved] Creating ghost players not working.

Hello, I am trying to create ghost players for spectating (Half invisible players). But it doesn't work.

Main class:

Code:java

package com.me.emiel.gom.drunken;
 
import com.me.emiel.gom.drunken.Listeners.JoinQuit;
import com.me.emiel.gom.drunken.Users.DrunkenUser;
import org.bukkit.Bukkit;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.plugin.PluginManager;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
import org.bukkit.scheduler.BukkitRunnable;
import org.bukkit.scoreboard.Scoreboard;
import org.bukkit.scoreboard.ScoreboardManager;
import org.bukkit.scoreboard.Team;
 
import java.util.HashMap;
 
public class GOM_Drunken extends JavaPlugin
{
    public static GOM_Drunken instance;
 
    public PluginManager pm = Bukkit.getPluginManager();
 
    public ScoreboardManager sm;
    public Scoreboard board;
    public Team ghosts;
 
    public HashMap<String, DrunkenUser> players = new HashMap<String, DrunkenUser>();
 
    public void onEnable()
    {
        enable();
 
        System.out.println("[GOM_Drunken] Enabled!");
    }
 
    public void onDisable()
    {
        System.out.println("[GOM_Drunken] Disabled!");
    }
 
    private void enable()
    {
        instance = this;
        sm = Bukkit.getScoreboardManager();
        board = sm.getNewScoreboard();
        ghosts = board.registerNewTeam("ghosts");
        ghosts.setAllowFriendlyFire(false);
        ghosts.setCanSeeFriendlyInvisibles(true);
 
        registerListeners();
        setupConfig();
 
        for(Player player : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers())
            players.put(player.getName(), new DrunkenUser(player));
 
        for(DrunkenUser user : players.values())
            user.makeSpectator();
    }
 
    private void registerListeners()
    {
        pm.registerEvents(new JoinQuit(), this);
    }
 
    private void setupConfig()
    {
 
    }
 
    public static GOM_Drunken getInstance()
    {
        return instance;
    }
}
 

DrunkenUser class:

Code:java

package com.me.emiel.gom.drunken.Users;
 
import com.me.emiel.gom.drunken.GOM_Drunken;
import org.bukkit.Bukkit;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.potion.PotionEffect;
import org.bukkit.potion.PotionEffectType;
import org.bukkit.scoreboard.ScoreboardManager;
 
public class DrunkenUser
{
    private GOM_Drunken plugin = GOM_Drunken.getInstance();
 
    private Player player;
 
    private String name;
 
    private boolean spectator;
 
    public DrunkenUser(Player player)
    {
        this.player = player;
        this.name = player.getName();
    }
 
    public Player getPlayer()
    {
        return player;
    }
 
    public void makeSpectator()
    {
        spectator = true;
 
        plugin.ghosts.addPlayer(player);
        player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.INVISIBILITY, Integer.MAX_VALUE, 15));
    }
 
    public boolean isSpectator()
    {
        return spectator;
    }
 
    @Override
    public String toString()
    {
        return name;
    }
}
 

Anyone?

WeeziMonkey Thank you! But that did not solve my problem since they use packets which is not needed anymore.

 

Here is a library you can use https://forums.bukkit.org/threads/lib-ghostfactory-make-players-look-like-ghosts.149088/

 

Funergy Thanks but I prefer not using that since I had issues with that before, it doesn't seem to work very well.

 

I think doing this solves your problem:
Player p2 = e.getPlayer();
for(Players p : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers){
p.hidePlayer(p2)
}

Also if you want to show the player, do the same, but p.showPlayer();
