Solved Player immediately goes into spectator after taking damage rather than death

So I have an EntityDamageEvent and an EntityDamageByEntityEvent where if the damage taken to the player is more than their health, they instantly get thrown into spectator mode rather than dying. However, for some reason it isn't working now.

Due to the length of the code, I will post this using hastebin. It's a lot to deal with, but I'm not too sure what is causing the issue because it's worked in the past before with 1.17. Not too sure what it could be, but I think it's because the function is reading the damage wrong?

@voltywolty You're using EntityDamageEvent#getDamage() rather than EntityDamageEvent#getFinalDamage(). The latter is the actual damage taken (after armor and other resistances have been applied).

 

Ah I see, must've changed since 1.17. I will try and use that and see if it works!

 

@voltywolty EntityDamageEvent#getFinalDamage() was added back in 1.7.10, so it's been here for 9 years at this point.
