Solved Particles problem.

Hey guys,

Today I have a problem with my code.



How to reduce the amount of particle ?

I have this code:

Code:

World world = e.getPlayer().getWorld();
                    world.playEffect(blocktoadd, Effect.STEP_SOUND, Material.DIAMOND_BLOCK);

Usefuls informations: It's for a railgun game. With a right-click, i'm shooting fireworks to instakill players. I wanted to add an effect (diamond particles) in the location : blocktoadd (it's a BlockIterator).

Thanks for the help!

 

Quakecraft? Hmmm...

Anyway, are you using 1.8? In later versions of Spigot/Bukkit, you can spawn particles separate using World#spawnParticle

 

It looks hard hmm

 

@xFoundation
Assuming you are on the newest update (which there is no reason not to be), you can use the Player#spawnParticle method. or World#spawnParticle method. You can find all the methods here (scroll down till you find it):

@Zombie_Striker
I tried this:

Code:

int count = 5;
p.getWorld().spawnParticle(Particle.BLOCK_DUST, blocktoadd, count, Material.DIAMOND_BLOCK);

 

@xFoundation
And? Does it work?

 

@Zombie_Striker

I did this, it work but i don't know how to set the material (for the particle type)

Code:

p.getWorld().spawnParticle(Particle.BLOCK_CRACK, blocktoadd, 0, 0, 0, 0, 57);

I wrote 57 because it's the ID of diamond block.

Thanks!

 

@xFoundation
Block Crack is different than Block Dust. Block crack is the 'particle' that displays when you are mining a block (the cracks in the block). BLOCK_DUST is what you want.

 

@Zombie_Striker

I wrote this:

Code:

p.getWorld().spawnParticle(Particle.BLOCK_DUST, blocktoadd, 5, 0, 0, 0, 57);

5 for the amount of particles, and 57 for the diamond particle but it doesn't work :/

With BLOCK_CRACK:

 

@xFoundation
57 is actually the data for TNT, though I do not know why the textures would be bugged. Change it to 68 (Diamond Block) and see if that fixes the problem.

 

@Zombie_Striker

I have always the same particles :/

Code:

p.getWorld().spawnParticle(Particle.BLOCK_CRACK, blocktoadd, 2, 0, 0, 0, 68);

 

It works ! Thanks
