Stop item dropping from a workbench?

Hi,

I want to cancel the dropping of items when you close a workbench with things in it.. I tried a few events, but I couldn't figure out how to do it.

Does anyone know if this possible, and if yes, how?

Thanks!

 

Do you want the items to just dissapear, or go into the players inventory?

I would like them to dissapear.

 

I have been trying to do this myself and I cannot get either way to work.

 

I don't think this is currently possible. InventoryCloseEvent only fires for player inventories as far as I can tell.

itemSpawnEvent?

Check if the player has recently been in inventory?

 

no the event is called but even if you remove the item from the inventory at that point it still seems to drop.

I thought about that... hoping there is a better way.

Why? Have a hashmap that stores player, and miliseconds since last used a crafting table. Then have a set variable, and keep checking every like 2 seconds if:
var - hashmap_time > var

Do that in a itemSpawnEvent, and if it returns true, then the nearest entity/player JUST used a crafting table, and you can then just delete the drop.

 

skipperguy12 yes, I suppose that wouldn't be too bad. I am actually no longer in need of this bc I will be using a chest inventory instead but I wasn't the OP anyway.
