[REQUEST][REQUEST] new way to do this please help (no one has done this yet) [sand break]

timtower in factions you use a hybrid cannon ( if you dont know what a hybrid cannon is then watch this ) so if i use his plugin tnt cant blow up in water wile its in sand (so hybrid cannons wont work with hes plugin )

 

xguysprison Noooope, that link doesn't help at all, because we can't detect when it moves. We could make a Runnable which checks every tick for every falling block entity, check if y > 255, but that would kill your server.

 

daavko how about this (Bestle owner of a server said this)



"Roof cannons made an appearance during the latter part of map 5 and have decimated some of the best defended bases out there. Whilst I will not be removing the ability to use these cannons, the ability for sand/gravel to turn into a solid block at Y255 will be removed. This should mean that your base is defended from above if you have a water-covered roof at max buildable height."

i hope you can do it on this way ?

 

please highlight it so you can read it

 

daavko timtower its fixed

timtower ok im sorry but can you please consider doing this if you can do it now ? as it is a new way ?

the new way is What I want: the ability for sand/gravel to turn into a solid block at Y255 to be removed

 

timtower thx tho ill keep my hopes up

 

Well, I don't know whether there exist an Event for that case, if somebody knows, this plugin would be easily done.

Maybe I have an idea. Don't know whether it will let the server lagg. Will try it tomorrow.

 

Zupsub maby you can find something on theses forums ?

xguysprison maybe next time say you want hybrid cannons to work. My impression was that you just didnt want tnt to blowup while in water

 

Geekxboy oh im sorry but can you do this ?

 

I can but its gonna get laggy since there is no way to check for entity movement

 

kxpeep93 no i want
the ability for sand/gravel to turn into a solid block at Y255 to be removed
so when sand or gravel lands at y255 then they just breake insted if turning into solid block

@Gekkxboy take a look at this
http://gyazo.com/2825f19eabc4e76b41e5ccf4639851e1 gontroller did this so it is possible so it wont lag

What xguysprison means: Cancel EntityChangeBlockEvent if entity is FallingBlock and its material is sand or gravel.

 

daavko thanks lol didn't quite get what he was saying

 

kxpeep93 you wanna do this ? please please please

 

Finished it for you
Download Link

There is also a configuration to set at which level you want the block/entity to "break"

 

Works but causes sand to break when hitting a piston or cobweb I believe.

 

Geekxboy
Yeah sand instantly breaks when it falls on a piston, no idea why. could you fix it, kinda ruins the point of hybrids if that is the case
EDIT: nvm sand just breaks instantly when i place it down as in when it falls, the config says 255
EDIT2: Nvm sand breaks at 201+ Y when it falls, but the config says 255, also in your plugins (i decompiled it this is what it says)

Code:java

 if ((eType == EntityType.FALLING_BLOCK) && (loc.getBlockY() >= 200)) { entity.remove();

so that's just saying it's going to be 200, no matter what.
Change the 200 to RemoveAt
EDIT3: Well i edited your plugin and changed the 200 to 254, and well if i place a sand at 254+ it'll break if it falls, but if i shoot the sand up with tnt and it goes above 254 it will not break

 

1) Yes, I forgot to upload the corrected version with changing 200 to RemoveAt. Corrected version: Download Link
2) If its not working then you broke the code when you decompiled it, I've tested it multiple times and I haven't had any issues with it.

 

Geekxboy
This video shows what's wrong, this is the newest download link you gave me above.

 

ThePluginMaker
alright I'll take a look at it

 

Geekxboy
okay

 

Geekxboy
Any fixes yet?

 

ThePluginMaker
2 things
1) Don't bump within 24 hours
2) Have you ever thought that maybe some of us have lives outside Bukkit and Minecraft and can't work on plugins 24/7? So don't be rude and assume we have all this free time to do free work for you.

 

@Geekxboy I appreciate your hard work on this. It really helps a lot of factions/raiding servers. Thank you!
