Grabbing Locations and teleporting a player to them

How do i grab a players location and then teleport that player to that location (THIS IS FOR HOMES I DONT WANT A /tp) i know how to make it save in files and such, but what do i do to get the location and then how do i set the location?

 

See this recent thread about saving locations http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/saving-location-to-a-file-from-a-hashmap.79989/#post-1157264

Then you could use a hashmap to assign names to locations such as a player's name for his home and then grab the location and call player.teleport();

 

Something like this if you are loading the coordinates from a config file

Code:

// Get the coordinates and store it as a location
Location home = new Location(config.getInt("homes." + player.getName() + ".home1.X"), config.getInt("homes." + player.getName() + ".home1.Y"), config.getInt("homes." + player.getName() + ".home1.Z"));
// Set the yaw and pitch of the location
home.setYaw(config.getInt("homes." + player.getName() + ".home1.Yaw"));
home.setPitch(config.getInt("homes." + player.getName() + ".home1.Pitch"));
// Teleport the user to the location
player.teleport(home);
// Send them a nice message
player.sendMessage(ChatColor.YELLOW + "Welcome to your home!");

Please note that the code will not work as is, you will have to modify it to make it work for you.

 

iKeirNez Why don't you set yaw and pitch when you create the location? Also why are you using int for them? Double would fit better:

Code:java

player.teleport(new Location(config.getDouble("homes." + player.getName() + ".home1.X"), config.getIDouble("homes." + player.getName() + ".home1.Y"), config.getDouble("homes." + player.getName() + ".home1.Z"), (float)config.getDouble("homes." + player.getName() + ".home1.Yaw"), (float)config.getDouble("homes." + player.getName() + ".home1.Pitch")));
player.sendMessage(ChatColor.YELLOW + "Welcome to your home!");

 

I was doing this all from memory, forgot that you could specify it when you create the location. I only posted what I knew would definetely work.
