Storing player's GameMode

I have been trying to figure out how to store a players gamemode and get that gamemode again later.

I think that is all the info you need, let me know if you would need more.

 

How do you mean store?
For most intents and purposes you can use Metadata.

On a hash map with string and string, when you get the player, check if the value is "survival" or something

 

Well there's two ways you can do this. You can either do p.getGameMode(), which returns a GameMode from an enum, or you can put it in a HashMap with String and GameMode, and just put it in using p.getGameMode(). Hope this helps

 

I was just wondering if I could do something like this:

Code:java

string gm = p.getGameMode();
 
//later:
 
p.setGameMode(gm);
 
//would this work?

 

no, but only because p.getGameMode() doesn't return a string, it returns a GameMode. just change your type declaration and that will work fine.
