Removing A Certian Amount Of Items From A Players Inventory

Ok so i want to make it so if the player right clicks the block then it checks if they have 35 gold ingots and if they do it removes them from the players inventory, i've tried everything but nothing seems to work? can someone help me?

Code:java

package me.mat.mysterybox;
 
import org.bukkit.ChatColor;
import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.block.Block;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.block.Action;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerInteractEvent;
import org.bukkit.inventory.Inventory;
import org.bukkit.inventory.PlayerInventory;
 
public class BoxListener implements Listener {
 
 
    @EventHandler
    public void BoxInteract(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
        Player player = event.getPlayer();
        Action action = event.getAction();
        Inventory inv = player.getInventory();
        PlayerInventory pi = player.getInventory();
        Material block = event.getClickedBlock().getType();
        if(action == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK) {
            if(block == Material.PISTON_BASE) {
                if(player.getInventory().contains(Material.GOLD_INGOT, 35)) {
                    pi.remove(Material.GOLD_INGOT); //Here i want it to take the 35 ingots away so i can do more, how can i do this?
 
 
 
                } else {
 
                    player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "You Do Not Have 35 Gold Ingots");
                }
 
            } return;
 
        } return;
 
    }
 
}

Something like this I believe.

Code:java

player.getInventory().remove(new ItemStack(Material.GOLD_INGOT, amount)); 

 

MrInspector It didn't give an error, but doesn't work, i tried updating the inventory but it just crosses it out? any ideas

 

Quickly add a debug message under the code I provided you with (something like a broadcast or print a message) and see if it either broadcasts or prints a message or whatever.

 

MrInspector I added the message, it gives me the message but doesn't take the gold ingots?

 

er try this

Code:java

player.getInventory().removeItem(new ItemStack(Material.GOLD_INGOT, 35));

 

MrInspector FIXED It was

Code:

public class BoxListener implements Listener {
 
   
    @EventHandler
    public void BoxInteract(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
        Player player = event.getPlayer();
        Action action = event.getAction();
        Inventory inv = player.getInventory();
        PlayerInventory pi = player.getInventory();
        Material block = event.getClickedBlock().getType();
        if(action == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK) {
            if(block == Material.PISTON_BASE) {
                if(player.getInventory().contains(Material.GOLD_INGOT, 35)) {
                    player.getInventory().remove(new ItemStack(Material.GOLD_INGOT, 35));
                    player.sendMessage("This Has Worked");
               
                   
                } else if(!player.getInventory().contains(Material.GOLD_INGOT, 35)){
                   
                    player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "You Do Not Have 35 Gold Ingots");
                   
                }
               
            } return;
           
        } return;
       
    }
   
}

 

Glad to help.

Good luck!
