(Solved) Sign Break

Hi!!

How could I protect the block that supports a sign so I can't break the supporter block? Only of the Sign has '[mVote]' as the 1st line (0 in Java)?

Thanks in advance,

Pretty sure the lines of a sign in Bukkit are one-indexed, but I could be wrong.

Create an event listener for the BlockBreakEvent, then check if the block above is a sign, then check if the sign has the contents you're looking for.

 

@mythbusterma Thanks again for replying quickly! I mean if the block that is used to hold up the sign is broken, cancel block break event. How would I get the supported block?

 

And the sides, could be a wall sign.

Block break event, the block broken would/could(check first) be the supporting block.

 

@cococow123

If the supporting block is being broken, it is the subject of the BlockBreakEvent.

@cococow123

You can use Block#getBlockRelative(BlockFace) to figure out what nearby Blocks are. For example, BlockFace.UP to get the one above it, then check it's type.

True true! @Xerox262

@mythbusterma Yeah. How would I check if if is a supporting block of a sign?

 

@cococow123
Get the blocks around it and check if it's a sign.
It's probably more efficient to just store the blocks you want to protect somewhere in your plugin though

 

@Scimiguy

1) how would I know it's the supporting block and not just a block next to the sign?

2) I could probably make it so the sign can only be on like a barrier block

Thanks @mythbusterma. I almost missed ur post

Just store the block in a collection somewhere and check if that block is in your collection
