Check to See if You Collide with Stationary Arrow

This is driving me up the wall. I can't seem to work out how to check to see if a person collides with an arrow that isn't moving, be that skeleton arrow or otherwise.


I'm thinking I just don't understand how to implement the listener to check if you've hit an arrow.

Any help would be appreciated.

 

I think it would look a bit like this:

Code:java

package your.package.name
 
import net.minecraft.server.EntityArrow;
import org.bukkit.entity.Entity;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerMoveEvent;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
 
import java.util.List;
 
public class YourListener implements Listener {
private final JavaPlugin plugin;
 
//Constructor
public YourListener(JavaPlugin plugin){
this.plugin = plugin;
plugin.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this.plugin);
}
 
//Checks for nearby arrows
public boolean hasArrows(List<Entity> list){
for(Entity entity: list){
if(entity instanceof EntityArrow) return true;
}
return false;
}
 
@EventHandler
public void onPlayerMove(PlayerMoveEvent event){
List<Entity> nears = event.getPlayer().getNearbyEntities(3,4,3);
//the (3,4,3) is the box to check for entities
if(hasArrows(nears)){
// do what you want here
}
}
}

Although this just checks for arrows in general.

 

I copied the code you sent, and tried to implement it.....but it won't seem to work. "error: method registerEvents in interface PluginManager cannot be applied to given types;
plugin.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this.plugin, this);
required: Listener,Plugin
found: JavaPlugin,PL"


That's line 15 I believe. Any help would be appreciated.

Code:java

public class PL implements Listener
{
 
 
 
private final JavaPlugin plugin;
static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger("Minecraft");
 
 
 
//Constructor
public PL(JavaPlugin plugin)
{
this.plugin = (Arrowclass)plugin;
plugin.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this.plugin, this);
}
 
//Checks for nearby arrows
public boolean hasArrows(List<Entity> list){
for(Entity entity: list){
if(entity instanceof Arrow) return true;
}
return false;
}
 
@EventHandler
public void onPlayerMove(PlayerMoveEvent event){
List<Entity> nears = event.getPlayer().getNearbyEntities(3,4,3);
//the (3,4,3) is the box to check for entities
if(hasArrows(nears))
{
Player player = event.getPlayer();
player.getName();
PlayerInventory inventory = player.getInventory();
ItemStack ar = new ItemStack(Material.ARROW, 1);
inventory.addItem(ar);
}
}
 
 
 
}

 

Try this line instead:

Code:

plugin.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this.plugin);

 

Done.....

Now I get

Here's my syntax:

}
 

I've got another class that's my main class. I can post that if need be.

 

Anybody? I hate to bump the thread, but I'm trying to develop this for someone. :/
