OnDeathEvent

Can someone help me with my plugin!


I need when someone dies the person who killed them to receieve credits.

Im stuck and I need help!

 

Use PlayerDeathEvent. getPlayer() returns the player killed, and getPlayer().getKiller() returns the person who killed them.

 

Here's the code

Code:java

    @EventHandler
    public void on(PlayerDeathEvent event){
        ((Player)event).getKiller().getInventory().addItem(new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND, 1));
    }

Ok, basically, you do this:

Code:java

@EventHandler
public void onDeath(PlayerDeathEvent e) {
    if (e.getEntity() instanceof Player && e.getEntity().getKiller() instanceof Player) {
        Player killer = (Player)e.getEntity().getKiller();
        Bukkit.broadcastMessage(ChatColor.YELLOW + killer.getName() + ChatColor.GREEN + " died at the hands of " + ChatColor.YELLOW + e.getEntity().getName());
    }
}

 

thanks lol i almost had the same code i just had a simple error thanks!

thanks!

can you help? should I not be putting economy in the Event handler or what?

Code:java

@EventHandler
      public void playerDeath(PlayerDeathEvent e) {
 
          kits.remove(e.getEntity().getName());
          if (e.getEntity() instanceof Player && e.getEntity().getKiller() instanceof Player) {
                Player killer = (Player)e.getEntity().getKiller();
                EconomyResponse r = econ.depositPlayer(killer, 2);
 
    }
 
 
}

trikxgaming If there is an error, how about you tell us what's wrong, or give us a stack trace, or something along those lines.

Explain to me what this does, because I am confused.
EDIT: If you are doing an economy based plugin, I believe that a really simple way to do that is you would create a HashMap storing integers through player names like this:

Code:java

HashMap<String,Integer> economy = new HashMap<String,Integer> ();

then, when the player joins the game, store a section in the hashmap for them with

Code:java

economy.put(player.getName(),0);

Then you would create custom methods such as deposit() or remove() etc.
Also, on the onDisable(), you would need to save that hashmap into a config, or else all their money will be reset every time you reload the plugin.
Then, on PlayerDeathEvent, deposit the 2 dollars/coins/currency into that players storage with

Code:java

@EventHandler
public void playerDeath(PlayerDeathEvent e) {
kits.remove(e.getEntity().getName());
if (e.getEntity() instanceof Player && e.getEntity().getKiller() instanceof Player) {
Player killer = (Player)e.getEntity().getKiller();
int killmoney = economy.get(killer.getName) + 2;
economy.put(killer.getName(), killmoney);
 
}
 
 
}

 

I need when the killer kills the player the killer gets 2 credits. Ive been trying the past 2 days
