Solved Trigger Chest Open

Long story short, I want to have a player open a chest on left click, in a PlayerInteractEvent.
Is there a way to achieve this feat?

 

@Feindbild
You could check if the clicked block isn't null first of all. Then, you can check if the block's state is equal to Chest (org.bukkit.block.Chest). Finally cast the block's state to a chest and open the BLOCK inventory (getBlockInventory()) not the normal inventory (getInventory()) to the player.

 

Thanks, @FabeGabeMC !
So basically I have to "recreate" the chest event by manually getting and opening its BlockInventory and then sending a packet to trigger the open/close animation of the chest?
Funnily this should be possible by using the playNote command:

@Fedingbild My only concern is the fact that if you re-create that inventory, it will have no connection to the chest apart from the contents, so say if someone was to break that chest all the content could drop out, but the player may still have the inventory open. I think you get the gist, just remember to take all that into consideration
