Boats in Lava

Hey guys so I was coding some stuff for my server and I was trying to make boats work on lava. I looked at some code that worked and I created this

Its not working for some reason and I would really love some help fixing it.

Fix what; what's the problem, exactly?

 

They don't float on lava. They break instantly. I don't know..

Well thats a minecraft property that boats are flammable. Do some digging to see if you can get rid of that.

 

Don't know if this is possible, but couldn't you cancel the break event?

 

^^

 

Did you check if an EntityDamageEvent fires for boat + lava ?

Edit: More candidates: VehicleDamageEvent and EntityDamageByBlockEvent

 

1. You didn't check if the item meta has a display name, could return a NullPointerException.
2. "�7�lIron Boat" - What the hell? You can't even get those characters in an Anvil...

 

I missed the code link - so the following applies:

If you have NoCheatPlus, test with bypass permissions because NCP might prevent placing the boat there, might be worth a fix.(nocheatplus.checks.blockplace.boatsanywhere). [Edit: does not apply to your code, unless you change to ignoring cancelled events]

 

I have a custom craft recipe and I Don't think you guys looked at the code since I cancelled all those events

I do not have no cheat plus.

Cancel the fire ticks from the boat?

 

I cancelled the damage and combust event tho

Did you have set an velocity from the boat so that they not swim in the lava? So the velocity to 0.1

 

I set the velocity to the normal boats and made it not sink on lava. Also players and boats shouldn't be able to combust.

 

That custom craft recipe - you can't use those characters for item names can you? Again, check if item meta is null too.

 

Those characters just make the name Bold and DarkGray.

 

Err... it doesn't look like it... Use ChatColor.DARK_GRAY.toString() + ChatColor.BOLD.toString()

 

I've never used anything like that, I just use good ol' ChatColor.

 

First of all it would be ChatColor.DARK_GRAY + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "Iron Boat" and also my way works too. However the name isn't the problem. And I added the thing to avoid NPEs.

 

your problem is lack of debug output and lack of source research.

this is reason why you unable to undestand what actually happens with your lavaboat and why your lavaboat not working as you like.

you dont ever trace your conditions...

 

Thanks for your help....

 

Not to be mean, but hes telling you how to fix it without getting other peoples help. Debug messages help me a lot, if I have any issues debug messages always fix it.

 

I understand and I have done that but I can't seem to find the issue.

 

you done nothing to fix issue self and asking forum members to waste time on you. 22vortex22

i have valid fix right now, but i wont post it as long as you not posted code with valid debugging.

 

Rawcode please don't do this me, I have debugged it in certain ways, I have send messages to check if the events are working properly and I can't find the problem. Could you please help me, you said you knew the fix. Could you tell me it so I can learn what I did wrong. I don't have much time during the day T.T

 

I believe no one should help this kid, he's really arrogant and ignorant.

No, you're incorrect for saying "First of all it would be". My way is the true way as it doesn't require adding a blank string, ChatColor's are converted into a string anyway. I'm not saying your way WON'T work, I'm saying my way is the true way. Please don't argue with someone with 10 plugins and two of which have over 140k downloads.

I know, what I said was wrong, I shouldn't have said it like that. I'm sorry please forgive me. I just want to get my code fixed

 

Big headed much.

 

This is the second funniest thing I've seen today. You are a hypocrite and a loser.

 

Sure. I was responding to him in a manner that he responds to everyone else, as you can see, he replies with:

It's a way of speech.

Read the above.
