[REDSTONE] Is block powered?

Hi,

Im working on a plugin (more learning) and i want to know if a block is receiving power.

I've tried a lot of things but i can't get it to work

Code:

  public void onBlockRedstoneChange(BlockFromToEvent event)
 {
  world = event.getBlock().getWorld();
  Block blockFrom = event.getBlock();
  Block blockTo = event.getToBlock();
  System.out.println("blockfrom: " + blockFrom.getType());
  System.out.println("blockTo: " + blockTo.getType());
 }

Server output is:

lever - redstone - redstone - block

Ofcource this is not what i want... i want the block the redstone points to!

How do i do that?

Thanks in advance,

Matthijs

 

Theres some code in this topic that looks like it works. Take a look: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/redstone-for-non-redstone-implementors.1523/#post-21482

 

Ok i did something but the problem is: it keeps spamming when the redstone is not powered.

Here is my code:

It's a redstone-sponge.
If a sponge get's powered it converts into yellow cloth (for now) and it doesn't absorb water.
If it get's unpowered it should convert back to sponge.

Feel free to use my code in any other plugin but mention my name: "Mattie112/Matthijs" thanks!

I hope someone can give me a little tip because i know i'm close to the solution!

 

First of all, I've noticed that getBlock() and getToBlock() are always the same block in a redstone event. Maybe it'll change in the future. Second, the easiest way to do this, which I believe is not mentioned in the other thread is to do something like this:

Code:

            public void onBlockRedstoneChange(BlockFromToEvent event) {
                BlockRedstoneEvent r = (BlockRedstoneEvent)event;
                int newCurrent = r.getNewCurrent();
                int oldCurrent = r.getOldCurrent();
            }

A current greater than 0 is powered.

 

THANK YOU SO MUCH
it's so much easyer that way
