Money /points & permissions

Hi there guys, I have 2 questions
1. How can i show the players money/points in there name ? Like this: [20]Weszzz: Hi
2. How can i like sell permissions, if someone clicks on an item to buy a kit in a IconMenu then the system takes the money/points and the player has the permission for the kit.

 

Weszzz every time he gains a point set his nickname?
Use Vault?

Vault okay, but how do i set his nickname everytime he gets a kill ?

 

Weszzz
Something like p.setDisplayName("[" + points + "] " + p.getName());
? I'm not sure if it will work but I think it should, I've never played with nicknames before

 

Okay but how do you know if the player who was killed was killed by that player and how can i add points then ? Srryiamkindanoob

 

Weszzz just experiment with stuff and try and learn some stuff
And you use PlayerDeathEvent to get the players, add them to a HashMap<String(being the playername), Integer(being the kills)>, or if you want permanent storage use YAML or some kind of database.
Google is still your best friend when learning to make plugins! ;3

 

I seriously dont know what HashMap is xd Can you like explain some more ?

 

Weszzz So something like
@EventHandler
public void onDeath(PlayerDeathEvent e) {
HashMap<String, Integer> kills = new HashMap<String, Integer>(); //create HashMap
e.setDeathMessage("");
Player a = e.getEntity().getKiller();
if(kills.containsKey(p.getName()) { //if the hashmap contains the players name
kills.put(a.getName(), kills.get(p.getName()) + 1); //add one to the kills of this player
} else {
kills.put(a.getName(), 0); //if not, add the player with 0 kills
}
a.setDisplayName("[" + kills.get(a.getName()) + "] " + a.getName()); //set his name to show his kills
}
Example.. but I think you get what I'm doing (well, hopefully ).

 

Pizza371 O i get it, but how can i now let the player buy permissions (kits) with that ? Because that code is kills not vault ;p So how can i let the player buy permissions with his kills then ?

 

Weszzz hook to vault API (really easy check vault page) then type in permission. and it will show you all you can do.

 

Pizza371 But then i can let the player buy permissions with KILLS ? Because this is kills or can i do the same thing with this code but then with coins, so that he gets 1 coin if he kills someone etc etc, ?

 

Weszzz you can do that with kills, but as I told you, it will NOT save over reloads (do you want this????).
For doing it with this something like:
if(kills.get(p.getName()) >= amountNeeded) {
permission.playerAddGroup(player, String permission); //I think this is right but I only used vault once for a minor project
} else {
you dont have enough points!
}

//Try and take in what I'm telling you because it's not beneficial for you to just copy & paste.

 

Pizza371 Okay thnx youre really helping me out but what is not saving over reloads ? This ?:

@EventHandler
public void onDeath(PlayerDeathEvent e) {
HashMap<String, Integer> kills = new HashMap<String, Integer>(); //create HashMap
e.setDeathMessage("");
Player a = e.getEntity().getKiller();
if(kills.containsKey(p.getName()) { //if the hashmap contains the players name
kills.put(a.getName(), kills.get(p.getName()) + 1); //add one to the kills of this player
} else {
kills.put(a.getName(), 0); //if not, add the player with 0 kills
}
a.setDisplayName("[" + kills.get(a.getName()) + "] " + a.getName()); //set his name to show his kills
}​

Or that other code ?​

 

Weszzz All of it. Display names will save so I guess that is a fault (just thought about that... ) Ok, ill just show you how I do it with YAML (sorry I am not experienced with SQL yet..).

Code:

onEnable:
if(!getDataFolder().exists()) {
getDataFolder().mkdirs();
}
Other methods:
public void createStorage(Player p) {
File f = new File(getDataFolder(), "/players.yml");
if(!f.exists()) {
f.createnewFile();
}
YamlConfiguration y = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(f);
y.set(p.getName(), 0);
y.save(f);
}
public int getKills(Player p) {
File f = new File(getDataFolder(), "/players.yml");
YamlConfiguration y = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(f);
return y.getInt(p.getName());
}
public void incrementKills(Player p) {
File f = new File(getDataFolder(), "/players.yml");
YamlConfiguration y = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(f);
int kills = y.getInt(p.getName());
kills = kills + 1;
y.set(p.getName(), kills);
y.save(f);
}

public boolean doesExist(Player p) {
File f = new File(getDataFolder(), "/players.yml");
YamlConfiguration y = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(f);
if(y.contains(p.getName)) { // i believe?
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
I wrote this without an IDE, so it won't be perfect.
you should try and move as much variables that are used by multiple methods outside of the methods and you will get a few errors which require you to sort out saves/creates with try / catch (your IDE should do this for you)
Good luck!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
on death:
if(doesExist) {
incrementKills(p);
} else {
createStorage(p);
incrementKills(p);
}
on /kills:
p.sendMessage(getKills(p));

 

Pizza371 Okay, but i want to add money to the players account if he/she makes a kill. So i have this now:
package me.Weszzz.SurviveIt;

import java.util.HashMap;

import net.milkbowl.vault.economy.Economy;

import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.entity.PlayerDeathEvent;
import org.bukkit.plugin.RegisteredServiceProvider;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;

public class Points extends JavaPlugin
implements Listener {

public static Economy econ = null;

public void onEnable() {
if (!setupEconomy() ) {
getLogger().severe(String.format("[%s] SurviveIt mist Vault!", getDescription().getName()));
getServer().getPluginManager().disablePlugin(this);
return;
}
}

private boolean setupEconomy() {
if (getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("Vault") == null) {
return false;
}
RegisteredServiceProvider<Economy> rsp = getServer().getServicesManager().getRegistration(Economy.class);
if (rsp == null) {
return false;
}
econ = rsp.getProvider();
return econ != null;
}

@EventHandler
public void onDeath(PlayerDeathEvent e) {
HashMap<String, Integer> kills = new HashMap<String, Integer>(); //create HashMap
e.setDeathMessage("");
Player player = e.getEntity().getKiller();
if(kills.containsKey(player.getName())) { //if the hashmap contains the players name
kills.put(player.getName(), econ.withdrawPlayer(player.getName(), + 1)); //add one to the kills of this player
} else {
kills.put(player.getName(), econ.withdrawPlayer(player.getName(), 0)); //if not, add the player with 0 kills
}
player.setDisplayName("[" + econ.getBalance(player.getName()) + "] " + player.getName()); //set his name to show his kills
}
}
But i get errors on kills.put, how can i fix this ? thx

 

Weszzz wat r u doing with the econ? I thought you wanted to track kills?

 

Pizza371 I want to add money to the account if a user makes a kill, and you can see the money in his name like this: [20]Weszzz: Like this. I think u didnt understand it ? But how can i do this ? Thanx

 

Weszzz well your trying to add nothing to a hashmap, when you don't need to do anything to the hashmap at all when withdrawing money

Code:

package me.Weszzz.SurviveIt;
 
import java.util.HashMap;
 
import net.milkbowl.vault.economy.Economy;
 
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.entity.PlayerDeathEvent;
import org.bukkit.plugin.RegisteredServiceProvider;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
 
public class Points extends JavaPlugin
implements Listener {
 
public static Economy econ = null;
 
public void onEnable() {
if (!setupEconomy() ) {
getLogger().severe(String.format("[%s] SurviveIt mist Vault!", getDescription().getName()));
getServer().getPluginManager().disablePlugin(this);
return;
}
}
 
private boolean setupEconomy() {
if (getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("Vault") == null) {
return false;
}
RegisteredServiceProvider<Economy> rsp = getServer().getServicesManager().getRegistration(Economy.class);
if (rsp == null) {
return false;
}
econ = rsp.getProvider();
return econ != null;
}
 
@EventHandler
public void onDeath(PlayerDeathEvent e) {
Player player = e.getEntity().getKiller();
econ.depositPlayer(player.getName(), 1);
player.setDisplayName("[" + econ.getBalance(player.getName()) + "] " + player.getName()); //set his name to show his kills
}
}

 

Pizza371 Isnt working Why it isnt working ?

 

Weszzz

Code:

package me.Weszzz.SurviveIt;

Player player = e.getEntity().getKiller();
econ.depositPlayer(player.getName(), 1);
player.setDisplayName("[" + econ.getBalance(player.getName()) + "] " + player.getName()); //set his name to show his kills
}
}

 

Pizza371 Isnt working either Whats wrong ?

 

Weszzz is the plugin loading? any errors in the console?

 

Pizza371 The plugin is loading and there are no errors in the console.

 

Weszzz try adding debug messages p.sendMessage("test"); when it is triggered.
Also try:
p.setCustomName(); instead of displayname
and then p.setCustomNameVisible(true);

 

Pizza371 Isnt working xd

 

Weszzz there must be some kind of error x_O if you've tried all the methods, is it in /pl green?
do you get the message "test"?
Have you got the command in the plugin.yml?

 

Pizza371 It is in /pl green, i did not get the message test and there are no commands.

 

Weszzz
I'm finding it hard to find any problems lol, are you SURE you're registering events?
Try adding:
@EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.HIGHEST)
Try removing essentials (if u have it) temporarily and seeing if it works.

 

Pizza371 I removed essentials etc.. Nothing works, this is my code atm:

Code:java

package me.Weszzz.SurviveIt;

import org.bukkit.plugin.RegisteredServiceProvider;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
 
public class Points extends JavaPlugin
implements Listener {
 
    public static Economy econ = null;
    @EventHandler
    (priority = EventPriority.HIGHEST)
    public void onEnable() {
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this,this);
        if (!setupEconomy() ) {
            getLogger().severe(String.format("[%s] SurviveIt mist Vault!", getDescription().getName()));
            getServer().getPluginManager().disablePlugin(this);
            return;
        }
    }
 
    private boolean setupEconomy() {
        if (getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("Vault") == null) {
            return false;
        }
        RegisteredServiceProvider<Economy> rsp = getServer().getServicesManager().getRegistration(Economy.class);
        if (rsp == null) {
            return false;
        }
        econ = rsp.getProvider();
        return econ != null;
    }
 
    @EventHandler
    public void onDeath(PlayerDeathEvent e) {
        Player player = e.getEntity().getKiller();
        econ.depositPlayer(player.getName(), 1);
        player.sendMessage("test");
        player.setCustomName("[" + econ.getBalance(player.getName()) + "] " + player.getName()); //set his name to show his kills
        player.setCustomNameVisible(true);
    }
}

Can u see whats wrong ?

I meant before your event. (priority)
I honestly cant see anything else wrong.. if this doesn't work
