Repeating task isn't stopping?

Hello everyone. I've been busy trying to stop my repeating task.

For some reason the task doesn't stop even when I say so.

This is how I start it:

Code:

  LookItsATask lookitsatask = new LookItsATask(plugin, playername, ++pid);
            LookItsATask task = new LookItsATask(plugin, playername, ++pid);
            task.setPid(plugin.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(plugin, lookitsatask ,0L, 20L));

This is how I want it to stop:

Code:

    private int pid;
    @SuppressWarnings("unused")
    private int count = 0;
    Players players = new Players(this);
 
    public LookItsATask(AntiAddict plugin, String name, int pid)
    {
        this.plugin = plugin;
        this.name = name;
        this.pid = pid;
    }
   
   
 
    public void setPid(int pid)
    {
    this.pid = pid;
    }
 
    public Player getPlayer() // Just in case you want to use the class out of the BukkitScheduler, too, and need to get the name...
    {
        Player player = plugin.getServer().getPlayerExact(name);
        if (player == null) {
        return null;
        } else if (player.isOnline()){
            return plugin.getServer().getPlayer(name);
        } else {
            return null;
        }
   
    }
 
    public void run()
    {
       
       
        Player player = getPlayer();
        System.out.print(player);
        if (player == null) {
                Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().cancelTask(pid);
            return;
        }

Does anyone has a solution?

 

If the cancel isn't working properly you could just use a non-repeating task and store a delay instead of the pid, and re-call the task if player != null.

If you're scheduling this for multiple players and this is inside a shared class, it's going to overwrite the id.
