Solved Spawn firework particles

I'm trying to spawn firework particles on a world, on a location.
Therefore I want to use the location of an fireball, so fireball.getLocation() I guess.

I saw a topic explaining this, but it doesn't seem to work in 1.5, because the import changed and I can't find it.
Also I didn't get the chance of testing out that code because I was already programming with the dev. build of CraftBukkit.

Can anyone think of an solution for this?

The code I used after reading to thread:

Code:

Firework firework = player.getWorld().spawn(fireball.getLocation(), Firework.class);
((CraftWorld) fireball.getWorld()).getHandle().broadcastEntityEffect(
              ((CraftFirework)firework).getHandle(),
              (byte)17);

Didn't test it, but maybe this helps: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/util-fireworkeffectplayer-v1-0.119424/ .

 

Still don't know how, read the whole thing and also looked at the code from other people.

 

So whats your problem? I thought the code you showed didn't work in 1.5 and the version I showed you uses reflection and should still work.

 

The problem is I still don't get how to do it after reading that topic.

 

You simply call the
playFirework(World world, Location loc, FireworkEffect fe)
method with the parameters you want (catch the exception ofc).

 

Can you tell me what to put at fe
I tried this:

Code:

try{
fw.playFirework(loc, loc, FireworkEffect.Type.BALL);
}catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}

 

Use a constuctor for a new FireworkEffect.

 

Can you give an example, I'm still not that good in this.

 

The Constructor summary is : boolean, boolean, ImmutableList<Color>, ImmutableList<Color> ,FireworkEffect.Type
Github seems to have an issue for me so I can't see what the datatypes mean, check for yourself here (if github works for you):
https://github.com/Bukkit/Bukkit/blob/master/src/main/java/org/bukkit/FireworkEffect.java


Edit: Works now, booleans: flicker and trail Colorlists: color and fadecolor Type is the type

With this eventlistener:

Code:

public wandListener(Main plugin) {
this.plugin = plugin;
}
public wandListener(FireworkEffectPlayer fw){
this.fw = fw;
}
 
 
@EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.NORMAL)
public void onBlazerodClick(PlayerInteractEvent event){
Player player = event.getPlayer();
if(plugin.effectnum.contains(player.getName()) && player.getItemInHand().getTypeId() == 369){
World loc = player.getLocation().getWorld();
Location target = player.getTargetBlock(null, 999).getLocation();
int k = 6;
for(;k > 0; --k){
player.getLocation().setX(player.getLocation().getX() + 1);
loc.strikeLightning(target);
loc.createExplosion(target, 12F);
try {
fw.playFirework(loc, target, Fwe());
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
public FireworkEffect Fwe(){
return FireworkEffect.builder().with(Type.BALL).withColor(Color.RED).build();
 
}
}

I still don't really get it, maybe you can give an example because I (mostly) learn better with that.

BUMP

ferrybig Already tried that, I used the FireworkEffectPlayer already before your answer.

 

in that case, what is line wandListener.java:37
EDIT: wait....

Code:java

 
public wandListener(Main plugin) {
this.plugin = plugin;
}
public wandListener(FireworkEffectPlayer fw){
this.fw = fw;
}
 

2 contructors???? they both set something else, that may be a bug....

 

Code:

try {
(this is line 37)              fw.playFirework(player.getWorld(), target, FireworkEffect.builder().withColor(Color.RED).flicker(true).with(Type.BURST).build());
                } catch (Exception e) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
World loc = player.getLocation().getWorld();
Location target = player.getTargetBlock(null, 40).getLocation();

Someone?

Test if fw is null, if it is thats your problem.

 

mncat77 Lol it is.
Ill put the fireworkEffectPlayer in my main and get it from there, that seems to work for my Arraylist too.
EDIT: Yes finally it works now!
Thanks for the help everyone

Empire Wand... seems familiar.

 

Just wanted to do the same (I'm not going to release a public plugin )
I think you want your plugin to be private, so I'm going to leave it that way.
