Prevent EnderDragon sound from being played on all worlds

When an enderdragon dies, it doesn't just play the death sound in the end world, but in every other world, this is pretty annoying as everyone else have no idea that they are about to have their pants scared off them.

My guess would be that it is related to the entity status package sent to the client about an entity's death. but i have never really puzzled around with protocollib, so if anyone already had a solution, it would be great

 

This sound is triggered by a Packet61WorldEvent with the effect ID 1018, relative disable volume set to TRUE, and the coordinates of the Ender Dragon being destroyed.

So, something like this should work (download):

Code:java

public class ExampleMod extends JavaPlugin {
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        ProtocolLibrary.getProtocolManager().addPacketListener(new PacketAdapter(this, ConnectionSide.SERVER_SIDE, Packets.Server.WORLD_EVENT) {
            @Override
            public void onPacketSending(PacketEvent event) {
                String worldName = event.getPlayer().getWorld().getName();
                int effectId = event.getPacket().getIntegers().read(0);
 
                if (effectId == 1018) {
                    if ("world_the_end".equals(worldName)) {
                        event.setCancelled(true);
                    }
                }
            }
        });
    }
}

 

Thanks man
Btw how did you know that the effect id is 1018? just set up a listener and checked for every effect package and killed a dragon? because i can't seem to find it anywhere

Great code. I don't understand how some people do this. Lol

 

should belong to plugin development.

Comphenix is a genius, he can practically do this in his sleep.

Well I'm not Comphenix, but one way would be to use ProtocolLib's packet command, e.g.

Code:

/packet add server 61 detailed

will dump information to the console about all Packet61 data going from the server to the client. E.g.:

Code:

08:54:25 [INFO] [ProtocolLib] Sent WORLD_EVENT (61) to desht:
{ a = 1003, b = 0, c = -305, d = 72, e = -138, f = false }

a is the effect ID (1003 is a door opening/closing - I'm standing in a village right now ) So have that listener active and go kill the ender dragon!

Alternatively hunt through the CraftBukkit code for where the ender dragon dies and the effect is triggered (it's here: https://github.com/Bukkit/CraftBukk.../minecraft/server/EntityEnderDragon.java#L530)

 

At least you are yet another genius.

 

Heh, not sure about that! ProtocolLib is the real work of genius here.

Cmon! You can code 100 times better than most people, that isnt a genius?

Everyone can code 100 times better than most people, just because most people don't even know what is programming language

 

I think it's obvious that he means 100x better than the people on this forum, ex. Me, you.

Eheheh nice loophole
