Change the number of players sent in ServerListPingEvent

Since there's no official method I though I could just make the field accessable like so:

Code:

try{
    online = ServerListPingEvent.class.getDeclaredField("numPlayers");
    online.setAccessible(true);
}catch(Exception e){
    e.printStackTrace();
}

declaring the field like this in my main class:

Code:

public Field online = null;

and setting it when the event is fired:

Code:

@EventHandler
public void onServerListPing(ServerListPingEvent event){
    try{
        online.setInt(event, getOnlinePlayers());
    }catch(Exception e){
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

but still, no luck. I even checked the field with debug messages, and it has the right value. It's just not that value which is beeing sent to the users serverlist.

Any ideas?

 

That field is not intended to be set, so CraftBukkit does not check it. You can't do this, sorry.

 

Your code works for me?
