Solved Getting the Killer (Creature)

ShadowLAX
It has nothing to do with the fact of making the mob messages work. I added that today.
Plus, I have had this problem for over 2 weeks with no solution. I even contacted Tux2, and he had no idea what to do.

 

FabeGabeMC After playing around with it, it seems that the variables k and kmt are always returning a player entity or entity type respectively, even if it wasn't a player that inflicted the last damage. Because of that, in the switch statements it is completing as if a player killed them, and is throwing an NPE because you can't get the name of a non-player entity. Why it is doing this, I have no idea.

 

So I should do it a little something like this?

Code:java

EntityType kmt = p.getKiller().getType();

now all of a sudden my other messages don't work. :/

Now THIS is really weird.
All messages were not running just because of kmt?! Nonsense, wow.
