EventHelp

I can not for the life of me figure this out. The plugin doesn't work, and I'm not sure why. I want it to be if you drop a d sword it gives u invis for 10 seconds

Code:

package me.rick2211133;



import org.bukkit.Bukkit;
import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerDropItemEvent;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
import org.bukkit.potion.PotionEffect;
import org.bukkit.potion.PotionEffectType;

public class Practice extends JavaPlugin implements Listener {
   
    public void onEnable() {
        Bukkit.getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);

       
    }
   
   
   
    @EventHandler
    public void testEvent(PlayerDropItemEvent e) {
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        if(e.equals(Material.DIAMOND_SWORD)) {
           
            p.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.INVISIBILITY,10,1));
       
    }
   
    }
}

 

Your if statement is will never be true. You are doing if PlayerDropItemEvent is equal to a Material

 

@teej107 well how do I make it true

 

@Rick221 Like @teej107 said, you're comparing a PlayerItemDropEvent to a Material. That would never work. I think that the best way to do it would be:

Code:

if(event.getItemDrop() == new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND_SWORD)) {
                        // Do stuff here.
                    }

 

to compare the item Material

 

@CodePlaysMinecraft that doesnt work either

Code:

package me.rick2211133;



import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerDropItemEvent;
import org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
import org.bukkit.potion.PotionEffect;
import org.bukkit.potion.PotionEffectType;

public class Practice extends JavaPlugin implements Listener {
   
   
    public void onEnable() {
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);

       
    }
   
   
   
    @EventHandler
    public void testEvent(PlayerDropItemEvent e) {
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        if(e.getItemDrop() == new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND_SWORD)) {
           
            p.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.INVISIBILITY,10,1));
       
    }
   
}
}

 

@Rick221

Code:

if(e.getDropItem().getType() == Material.DIAMOND_SWORD) { //do stuff }

 

You're comparing an ItemStack to a Material... That would never work either...
