Adding a head in a GUI

Hello, I am wanting to know how to add a player's head in a GUI.
Though it may be a bit confusing to understand here's what I'm looking to do.

/remove <playersname>: Would remove the players head from the inventory of heads
/add <playersname>: add the players head to the inventory of heads
/heads: to veiw the heads (if the inventory is full you'll be able to click next page or back page)

If I could be provided with a hand that'll be great. Thank you.

Head items are the same as regular items. To add custom heads, create a new itemstack that is a SKULL_ITEM. After that , get the item meta and cast it to a SkullMeta. From there, set the owner by using SkullMeta#setOwner(player).

After you set that up, adding and removing the heads is as simple as getting the inventory system and using Inventory.add and Inventory.removeItem.

 

Would this be an example to you ?

Code:java

        @EventHandler
        public void onPlayerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent e) {
                ItemStack skull = new ItemStack(Material.SKULL_ITEM, 1, (short) SkullType.PLAYER.ordinal());
 
                SkullMeta meta = (SkullMeta) skull.getItemMeta();
                meta.setOwner(e.getPlayer().getName());
                meta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.GREEN + e.getPlayer().getName() + "'s Head!");
                skull.setItemMeta(meta);

Do not spoonfeed. Here is why (from the read-me)

 

I know how to add things into the inventory. I'm looking to see how to add onto it. For an example. When I type /add it would add the head in slot 1. /add again It'll automatically detect that slot 1 is being used so it'll use slot 2 instead.

 

@MrPowWow
And Inventory.addItem() doesn't do this?

 

Sorry I'm a bit confused.
This is what I have for the command

Code:

    if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("addhead")) {
              ItemStack skull = new ItemStack(Material.SKULL_ITEM, 1, (short) SkullType.PLAYER.ordinal());
             
              SkullMeta meta = (SkullMeta) skull.getItemMeta();
              meta.setOwner(p.getName());
              meta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.GREEN + p.getName() + "'s head!");
              skull.setItemMeta(meta);
            servers.addItem(skull); // error I'm wanting to add the skull into the head inventory
         
           }
        }

Here's the void

Code:

public static void openViewHeads(Player p)
  {
    heads = Bukkit.getServer().createInventory(p, 5*9, ChatColor.GOLD + "View Heads");

   


       
        ItemStack z = new ItemStack(Material.REDSTONE_LAMP_ON, 1, DyeColor.GRAY.getData());
        ItemMeta zm = z.getItemMeta();
        ArrayList<String> zl = new ArrayList();
        zm.setDisplayName("Next Page");
        zl.add(" ");
        zm.setLore(zl);
        z.setItemMeta(zm);
   
        selector.setItem(9, z);
    
   
    p.openInventory(heads);
  }

and the head inventory

Code:

public static Inventory heads;

Thank you all for the help

What is it your confused about ?

 

I'm wanting to make it where I can add player heads into the GUI. So if people type /banlist it will see the list of heads in the GUi. But when I type /ban it will add the target I ban into GUI

 

You can request it in the plugin request form and I will make it for u.

Basically you want to detect the command /ban executed, and add the target head into the GUI. Then, when command /banlist is executed, show a GUI and list all the banned player heads inside it.

Something useful:

1. You can handle PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent and get the player name by splitting the entire command input. Overriding the bukkit command /ban is a idea too.

2. You can use non enhanced for loop to add all heads into a GUI and display it to the command sender.

What's your problem? I cannot really help u without it.

Edit: referring to your question detecting slot ? is occupied:

You don't want to bind an item to a slot. If there is a new banned player, simply reload all the banned player heads into the GUI, instead of adding the new banned player head to the next available slot.
