Solved How can I send a player a message? And make permissions?

So I was wondering how would I go setting up a /message system?
I can't seem to find the events/commands I need.
(Obviously I'm new to this)





Also how would you set a permission for a command?

 

@Brevoort
To broadcast a message to everyone on the server do:

Code:

        Bukkit.broadcastMessage("this is the message");

To broadcast a message to everyone with a certain permission do:

Code:

        Bukkit.broadcast(message, permission)

To broadcast a message to a target try:

Code:

                Player player = player.getPlayer();
                            player.sendMessage("this is the message");

To broadcast a message to the sender do:

Code:

        sender.sendMessage("this is the message");

Example permission:

Code:

                if (sender.hasPermission("example.permission")) {
                 //your code here
    }

 

@Brevoort
/message is a command, so use an onCommand to listen for that command. When the commend is sent, build all the "args" to make a single string.

As for permission, use Player.hasPermission("perm") to test for perms.

 

Okay so is that how I would make a custom permission? using Player.hasPermission() or is that just checking for the perm

 

@Brevoort
Use that method.

[edit] How can you check for the perm without using that method? That method is the way to check.

 

@Brevoort
Example permission:

Code:

if (sender.hasPermission("example.permission")) {
//your code here
}

 

thanks
