Stop spawneggs and water/lava from dispensers.

Hello,

Yesterday evening a random player on my server decided to abuse the spawn eggs and spawn over 200 villagers all over my creative map. He also used lava and water (I blocked bucket usage) by putting a bucket into a dispenser.

How can I disable all spawn eggs?
And how can I stop people from placing water/lava buckets into dispensers?

Kind Regards,

I don't want to create the whole plugin for you I want you to learn so here is a hint at which even to use. https://github.com/Bukkit/Bukkit/bl...rg/bukkit/event/block/BlockDispenseEvent.java

 

I tried this:

Code:

public void onDispense(BlockDispenseEvent Event){
        if(Event.getBlock().isLiquid()){
            Event.setCancelled(true);
        }
        if(Event.getBlock().getType() == Material.WATER_BUCKET){
            Event.setCancelled(true);
        }
        if(Event.getBlock().getType() == Material.LAVA_BUCKET){
            Event.setCancelled(true);
        }
        if(Event.getBlock().getType() == Material.MONSTER_EGG){
            Event.setCancelled(true);
        }
    }

But it doesn't seem to work...

 

You need @EventHandler above and need to register the event if you haven't already. Also Event is normally like event because I think there's a java util Event so you may need to put it in lower case. Read here for the new event handling.

Haha, how silly of me . I forgot the @EventHandler. Lets see if it fixes it

EDIT:
Nope, adding @EventHandler doesn't seem to fix it.

I have found the solution.

Code:

@EventHandler
    public void onDispense(BlockDispenseEvent Event){
        if(Event.getItem().getType() == Material.WATER_BUCKET){
            Event.setCancelled(true);
        }
        if(Event.getItem().getType() == Material.LAVA_BUCKET){
            Event.setCancelled(true);
        }
        if(Event.getItem().getType() == Material.MONSTER_EGG){
            Event.setCancelled(true);
        }
        if(Event.getItem().getType() == Material.MONSTER_EGGS){
            Event.setCancelled(true);
        }
    }

Now I only need to find a way to block the spawneggs when a player right clicks.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Code:java

if(event.getAction == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_AIR || event.getAction == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK)//something like that
{
if(event.getPlayer().getItemInHand().getType() == Material.MONSTER_EGG){
 
event.setCancelled(true);
}
}

That should work.

 

And if they right click a block? Will that still work? Havn't coded in a while so I don't really remember Also your signature is freaking hilarious.

 

Yea. That is what the

Code:java

Action.RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK

is for.


Edit:

Thanks
A friend who is really good at GFX made that, thought it was funny as hell.

 

Ok, cool. Has this been fixed since 1.2.5 because I recall that

Code:

Action.RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK

wouldn't work when trying to determine what was in your hand. I think there really needs to be an even for this.

 

To disable spawner eggs, this way is possible to:

Code:

@EventHandler
public void onCreatureSpawn(CreatureSpawnEvent event) {
    if (event.getSpawnReason() == SpawnReason.SPAWNER_EGG) {
        event.setCancelled(true);
    }
}

 

Hadn't seen that before. Nice.
