I have a Question : How do you make some sort of QuakeCraft like Animation with the hoe i mean the particles but i want it so it will do every 5 ticks the next block so like
PARTICLE - 5 ticks - PARTICLE - 5 ticks - PARTICLE - 5 ticks - BOOM! EXPLODEPARTICLES!

I know how to make Particles and how to do with the hoe but how do i make that animation?

 

int count = 3;
Then create a scheduler that will spawn particles and do count-- every 5 ticks, then if count == 0, make boom and stop scheduler.

 

I think you dont understeand me? I want the Locations of the blocks from the player to the targetted block

Launch a projectile, every 2-3 ticks play an effect at the projectile and on projectile hit just spawn an explosion.

Use a BlockIterator:

Code:java

 
    public List<Location> locationsLOS(String p, int d) { // String p = Player name (not UUID); int d = Distance
        BlockIterator losbl = new BlockIterator(Bukkit.getServer().getPlayer(p), d);
        Block lastb = losbl.next();
        List<Location> los = new ArrayList<Location>();
        while (losbl.hasNext()) {
            lastb = losbl.next();
            if (lastb.getType() == Material.AIR) {
                los.add(lastb.getLocation());
                continue;
            } else {
                break;
            }
        }
        return los;
    }
 

It returns a List of Locations from the player to the targetted block
From my unfinished API.

 

How can i use it in this code and how can i activate it ?

Code:java

    @EventHandler
    public void HandGun(final PlayerInteractEvent e) {
        if(e.getAction() == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_AIR || e.getAction() == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK) {
            Player p = e.getPlayer();
            if(p.getItemInHand().getType() == Material.IRON_HOE) {
                if (gunner.contains(p.getName())) {
                    if (handgun.contains(p.getName())) {
                        p.playSound(p.getLocation(), Sound.EXPLODE, 200, 3);
                        Ammo(p);
                        handgun.remove(p.getName());
 
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }

Code:java

List<Location> blocksInLineOfSight = locationsLOS(e.getPlayer().getName(), 32);
for (Location block : blocksInLineOfSight) {
    // now "block" is a location in the blocksInLineOfSight List
    // you can do with it what you can do with every other location .getBlock() .getX() etc
}
