EntityDamagedEvent Question: Getting Player value

I've been trying to get an answer/solution for this since last night when trying to convert Hey0 code.

How do you get a Player value from EntityDamagedEvent?

The basic start of the OnEntityDamaged Method:

Code:

public void OnEntityDamaged(EntityDamagedEvent event)
        {
//Code that does stuff.
           }

And I'm going to need something like:

Code:

public void OnEntityDamaged(EntityDamagedEvent event)
        {
Player defender = event.getEntity().getPlayer();
             If (defender.getAirTicks >= 0)
                  {
      //Code that does stuff.
                   }
        }
          

In the current build, is there a way to do this at all? Or will there be?

Also are AirTicks in/going to be in soon?

Thanks, The_Guest.

 

nevermind.
