Detecting Hit With Certain Item

I want to detect if a player hurts a mob with a certain item in-hand (e.g. a gold sword) How do I do this?

 

EntityDamageByEntityEvent

 

I got that but how do I do the specific item in hand and must be a player thing?

 

Zachster

Code:java

 @EventHandler()
public void onEntityDamageByEntity(EntityDamageByEntityEvent event) {
if ((event.getEntity() instanceof <YourMob>) && (event.getDamager() instanceof Player)) {
Player player = (Player) event.getDamager();
ItemStack item = player.getItemInHand();
}
}

Where item is the players item in his hand. Replace <YourMob> with the mob type you want.

 

YourMob is what was hurt, right?

 

Zachster Yes. The entity damaged by an other entity.

 

Thanks. I'll try this tomorrow.
