I get error on UUID

 

ProMCKingz sorry replace getUUID() with getUniqueId()

 

Hi,
I tried this

Code:java

package me.ProMCKingz.VIP;
 
import java.util.ArrayList;
 
import org.bukkit.ChatColor;
import org.bukkit.Effect;
import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.block.Action;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerInteractEvent;
import org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack;
 
public class Method2Return implements Listener{
 
public class MyListener implements Listener {
private Main plugin;
private ArrayList<String> cooldowns = new ArrayList<String>();
public MyListener(Main instance) {
plugin = instance;
}
 
@EventHandler
public void onPlayerInteract(final PlayerInteractEvent e){
ItemStack is = e.getItem();
Player player = e.getPlayer();
if (e.getPlayer().getItemInHand().getType() == Material.PISTON_STICKY_BASE &&
e.getAction() == Action.LEFT_CLICK_AIR){
is.setType(Material.PISTON_BASE);
player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "[PLugin] " + ChatColor.DARK_RED + "De-Activated");
e.getPlayer().playEffect(e.getPlayer().getLocation(), Effect.SMOKE, 5);
cooldowns.add(e.getPlayer().getUniqueId().toString());
plugin.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncDelayedTask(plugin, new Runnable() {
public void run() {
cooldowns.remove(e.getPlayer().getUniqueId().toString());
}
}, 100); //Cooldown in ticks. 20 ticks per sec. 100 ticks for 5 sec
}
 
}
}
}
[/syntax]
 
However this just seems to stop the process that used to happen before in my class.
And does not have a cooldown. How may I fix it?[/PLugin]

 

ProMCKingz First, read the link RawCode posted on a better way of doing cooldowns.
Next, just look at your code. You are doing no checks for the cooldown at all, you are just adding the Player to a list then removing him.
