Solved Config values help

Hello everyone,

I am trying to make a money printer plugin but am running into some trouble.

When I place the printer block, it should raise the printer count variable in the data file by 1, and when it is broken, it should remove 1 from that count.

However, the count value goes up, but it doesn't decrease.

This is my code:

PHP:

public class printerListener implements Listener {
   
    public static HashMap<Location, Integer> moneymap = new HashMap<Location, Integer>();
    public static HashMap<Player, Integer> printerinfo = new HashMap<Player, Integer>();
   
    @EventHandler
    public void onPrinterPlace(BlockPlaceEvent event) {
       
        Player player = event.getPlayer();
        Block block = event.getBlock();
       
        String originalPrinterCount = PlayerData.getData().getString("players." + player.getUniqueId() + "." + player.getName() + ".printers");
        int printerCount = Integer.parseInt(originalPrinterCount);
       
        if (block.getType().equals(Material.IRON_BLOCK)) {
           
            moneymap.put(block.getLocation(), printerCount + 1);
            printerinfo.put(player, printerCount + 1);
            PlayerData.getData().set("players." + player.getUniqueId() + "." + player.getName() + ".printers", (printerCount + 1));

        }
       
    }
   
   
    public void onPrinterBreak(BlockBreakEvent event) {
       
        Player player = event.getPlayer();
        Block block = event.getBlock();
       
        String originalPrinterCount = PlayerData.getData().getString("players." + player.getUniqueId() + "." + player.getName() + ".printers");
        int printerCount = Integer.parseInt(originalPrinterCount);
       
        if (block.getType().equals(Material.IRON_BLOCK)) {
           
            this.moneymap.remove(block.getLocation());
            PlayerData.getData().set("players." + player.getUniqueId() + "." + player.getName() + ".printers", (printerCount - 1));
            printerCount--;
           
           
        }
       
    }
   
   
    @EventHandler
    public void onPlayerInteract(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
       
        Player player = event.getPlayer();
       
        if (event.getAction() == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK) {
            if (event.getClickedBlock().getType().equals(Material.IRON_BLOCK)) {
               
                player.sendMessage("You right clicked a Money Printer");
               
            }
        }
    }
}

If you find the problem, please let me know.

Thank you in advance for any help.

 

@sniddunc Are you saving the file?

 

I called the save method after it changes the value but the issue still persists.

 

@sniddunc Perhaps you should print out debug messages to tell if your event is even being fired.

 

May I point out it can be write as such:

BTW: You have printcount--; But you do not have printercount++;

 

I got it working. @teej107 was right, the event was not getting fired. Turns out I forgot the leading @EventHandler before declaring the method. Thanks for the help!

 

@sniddunc Glad I could help. Please mark this thread as solved.
