    Hi, I have tried using a switch statement to compare the name of the PotionEffect. I used the .toString() method, but that didn't seem to work. What will PotionEffect.toString() method result in? I tried this:

    Code:java
    1. for(PotionEffect pe : p.getActivePotionEffects()) {
    2.             switch(pe.toString()) {
    3.             case "ABSORPTION":
    4.                 potionMeta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.GOLD + "Absorption");
    5.                 potion.setItemMeta(potionMeta);
    6.             case "BLINDNESS":
    7.                 potionMeta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.DARK_BLUE + "Blindness");
    8.                 potion.setItemMeta(potionMeta);
    9.             case "CONFUSION":
    10.                 potionMeta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.DARK_GREEN + "Confusion");
    11.                 potion.setItemMeta(potionMeta);
    12.             case "DAMAGE_RESISTANCE":

    Hmm, seems like it I can't use the .toString() method? :eek:

    This doesn't seem to work:

    Code:java
    1.                 if(pe.getType() == PotionEffectType.WEAKNESS) {
    2.                     potionMeta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.GRAY + "Weakness");
    3.                     potion.setItemMeta(potionMeta);

    Print out the value of pe.getType(), if it is weakness, then it should look a bit like

    Code:
    PotionEffectType[18, WEAKNESS]

    How am I meant to print that to the console? pe.getType() returns a PotionEffectType not a string, and the .toString() method doesn't print anything for some reason

    GameplayJDK theguynextdoor

    Yep, I tried to use a switch statement earlier on but it wouldn't work

    ZodiacTheories you can switch over the id for Java 6 support (though its deprecated). Otherwise if...else if...else over the effects yourself

    What are the ids of potions though? Also, this didn't work:

    Code:java
    1.         if(pe.getType() == PotionEffectType.WEAKNESS) {
    2.                 potionMeta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.GRAY + "Weakness");
    3.                 potion.setItemMeta(potionMeta);
    4.             }
    5.         }

    ZodiacTheories debug the type. The id would be the number found as the Wrapper argument in the docs, but since it's deprecated, the code you have currently is better.

    ZodiacTheories Move the debug statement to outside the if statement but inside the loop still.

    Compare the names of each

    Code:java
    1.  for (PotionEffect pe : player.getActivePotionEffects()) {
    2. System.out.println(pe.getType().getName());
    3. System.out.println(PotionEffectType.WEAKNESS.getName());
    4.  
    5. if (pe.getType().getName().equals(PotionEffectType.WEAKNESS.getName())) {
    6. System.out.println("lol");
    7. }
    8. }



    EDIT:

    Heck, just use the getName() on the potion effect from the loop and then use your initial code
