Solved Skill timer

I want to make a skill timer. If a player use his skill it counts back. For each player i need a timer?

 

sohardhun15 Not for each player no, just each player that are going to use skills.

 

And how can i do it?

 

sohardhun15 What have you got so far?

 

You store the Player (or UUID) ----> Countdown relations in a map.

Nothing I dont know where to start

Like this?

Code:java

HashMap<String, BukkitRunnable> timer = new HashMap<String, BukkitRunnable>();

Not neccessarily. It really depends on your implementation of the cooldowns. Since you mentioned "count back" I assumed you wanted coodowns as integer-values which are repeatedly decremented.

It needs to count back But i dont know how to make it with map.

 

If the concept of a Map is new to you, I'd suggest you read up on it and then reconsider how to do this

 

i can't speak english very well, so can you write a code or an example?

 

No.

What would be the point of me writing you an example (in other words doing your work)? The next time you needed it (and trust me, key-value mappings are something you're going to need very often) you'd still not be much further.

Also, in the time of online translations, why can't you just let the engine of your choice translate it for you? Besides there are tons of tutorials on Maps online, and I bet you there is one in your language as well

I can use maps, but how can i set the int every second? And if it 0 then cancel the timer for THAT player.

 

You register a repeating timer which decrements the value every second. Buf if you're only going to use it for that, why not simply save the currentTimeMilis() in the moment of the execution and check against that each time someone actually tries to use a cooldown? That would save you the hassle of permanently updating the map
