Minecraft check if player has thrown out a fishing rod?

So I want to know, if the Player has already pulled the fishing rod out.

 

@Didi1150 I think you can listen to the PlayerFishEvent, and then check if the State is REEL_IN.

I'm just assuming that's what you want.

If not, there's also other states related to the fishing rod.

 

You could write a listener (PlayerFishEvent) and store all te playernames that started to fish in a list and remove them when they are done fishing. (Dont know if it will call stop fishing when a player leaves the server, otherwise also listen for PlayerQuitEvent)

Then use this function:

Code:

public boolean isPlayerFishing(String playername) {
    return list.contains(playername);
}

 

Thx, and how do u add velocity to the player, so that he flies into the hook direction?

And there is no state called reel_in

Use Entity#setVelocity(Vector)

I linked you to the javadocs. Which version are you building for?

 

1.8
and if i use p.setVelocity(event.getHook.getLocation.toVector());
the player will start flying straight up into the air, and not to the hook position

 

How do i make him launch towards the hook then?

help

@Didi1150 Subtract the player's location's vector from the hook's location's vector.

 

and then?

 

@Didi1150 Then set the player's vector to the returned vector.

 

thx, u solved my problem. I have another question, how do u teleport a player five blocks in the direction he is looking?

 

@Didi1150 Never tried it but, i think multiplying the Vector returning from Player#getLocation()#getDirection() by the amount of blocks you want them to teleport, and then adding that vector to the player's location using Player#getLocation()#add(Vector) should work.

Of course you'd need to teleport the player to the location returned by the Location#add(Vector) method.

 

And, how to check if there is any block in this range, so the player doesn't get stuck?

 

@Didi1150 You could check the blocks around the returned location.

 

but then, the block in the side would be counted too

 

@Didi1150 That depends on how you do it. Just do some tests, and if you still can't get it working, post your progress and what you've tried here.

 

i did the location he gets tped, and then check if the block is air or not. But my problem is still the sound. It says nosuchfield and I'm using Sound.ENTITY_ENDERMAN_TELEPORT

 

@Didi1150 Sound#ENTITY_ENDERMAN_TELEPORT doesn't exist in version 1.8, it's just called ENDERMAN_TELEPORT.

 

oh i solved it, I'm using maven, and i had spigot 1.15 lib instead of 1.8
