Solved PlayerChatTabCompleteEvent never firing

Code:

@EventHandler
public void playerChatTabCompleteEvent (PlayerChatTabCompleteEvent event) {

    System.out.println("x");

}

And yes, the events are registered, and other events in the same class are working

No errors on startup/runtime/compiling

Edit:

Solution was ProtocolLib:

Code:

ProtocolLibrary.getProtocolManager().addPacketListener(new PacketAdapter (this, PacketType.Play.Client.TAB_COMPLETE) {

    @Override
    public void onPacketReceiving (PacketEvent event) {
    
        List<String> completions = new ArrayList<String>();
    
        completions.add("/msg"); //Do whatever
    
        event.setCancelled(true);
    
        PacketContainer packet = ProtocolLibrary.getProtocolManager().createPacket(PacketType.Play.Server.TAB_COMPLETE);
    
        Collections.sort(completions);
        packet.getStringArrays().write(0, completions.toArray(new String[0]));
    
        try {
            ProtocolLibrary.getProtocolManager().sendServerPacket(event.getPlayer(), packet);
        } catch (InvocationTargetException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    
    }

});

Are you testing this by checing if they are using the command tab, or are you testing using regular chat tab?

 

@Zombie_Striker I see what you mean now, is there a command tab event?

 

@nathanthesnooper
Sort of; not an event.

onTab is a method that is used to listen for tabs for commands that your plugin creates.

 

@Zombie_Striker
I found a solution by using protocollib, I edited my answer. Thanks though!
