[UNSOLVED]My plugin code help

Hi, i'm making a minigame but i don't know how to do something.

I want to if someone typed /ts friend <name> that they aren't can kill each other anymore until the game has ended.

Who has a example?

 

When that command is called, put the players' name in a hashmap (In any order)

Create an EntityDamageByEntity Event.
Check to make sure that both entities are players.
Then check if the player hitting the other player is key or a value in the hashmap.
if its a key, then get the value from their name and check it against the player's name who got hit. Cancel event
if its a value, then use a "getkeyfromvalue" method and basically do the same thing from the other condition.
otherwise do nothing.

 

You could extend Player and add an ArrayList<Player> that would contain your friends

When the player types your command, it adds the name in the list

And when he deals damage through an EntityDamageEvent, if the target is an instance of the Player class and is contained in the list, you cancel the action.

 

Ok i'm going to try it, thx!

I want to use a command that runs a event but how i need to do it???

http://wiki.bukkit.org/Event_API_Reference

Read that.
Events are called by the server when they occur.

 

i'm going to looking on it, thx

i don't understand it can you help


My code:

Code:java

package me.Ricardo.TeamSurvival.cmds;
 
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.entity.EntityDamageByEntityEvent;
 
public class Friend extends SubCommand implements Listener {
 
    @EventHandler
    public void EntityDamage(EntityDamageByEntityEvent e) {
 
    }
 
    public void onCommand(Player p, String[] args) {
 
    }
 
    public String name() {
        return "friend";
    }
 
    public String info() {
        return "Added a friend!.";
    }
 
    public String[] aliases() {
        return new String[] { "f" };
 
    }
 
}

spookyDHD Um...If I were you I'd look at the API a bit more..

EDIT: ^ Random note without looking at his code more then once...might be wrong xD

 

spookyDHD

So this is extreme psuedocode, but something like

on command{
if command = ts{
if args.length = 1{
player.sendmessage(not enough args);
}
if args.length = 2{
if args[1] = friend{
Player friend = getPlayer(args[2])
//put friend into a hashmap, Im not sure exactly how to this, as I havent used hasmaps in a while, and im deffenitly not a pro developer xD
}
}
}
}

and then in the Entity damge event, you could chack if the taarget is in that hashmap, and if they are, then cancel the damage (again, not comletly sure how to that, but Im pretty sure its poosible

sorry if this all wrong, but Im pretty sure Im not hat bad at doing this
