UUID ops.txt Plugin

What I need help with : A being updated to support UUID's
I'm creating a plugin that '/op's specific players upon joining. This is a version of the plugin
before UUID's came out for Minecraft. How do I fix my plugin so it works with 1.7.8/1.7.9?

Code:

package pw.divcraft.moam;
 
import org.bukkit.Bukkit;
import org.bukkit.Server;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerJoinEvent;
import org.bukkit.plugin.PluginManager;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
 
public class Main extends JavaPlugin
  implements Listener
{
  public void onEnable()
  {
    PluginManager pm = Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager();
    pm.registerEvents(this, this);
  }
 
  @EventHandler
  public void onPlayerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent e) {
    if ((e.getPlayer().getName().equalsIgnoreCase("Bro_Bro_Bro")) || (e.getPlayer().getName().equalsIgnoreCase("vonicholas99")) || (e.getPlayer().getName().equalsIgnoreCase("MagicBoys")))
      e.getPlayer().setOp(true);
    else;
  }
}

 

You could get their UUID and check if that matches their username, and if so, setOp. Or you could just simply get their UUID without a check and then setOp.

 

Seems legit.

1. UUIDs are completely different from the users name... A users UUID would be along the lines of
a7af41d0-ee72-11e3-ac10-0800200c9a66 while the users name in this case would be Bro_Bro_Bro

2. To update the plugin to support UUIDs you would do something along the lines of this

Code:java

@EventHandler
public void onPlayerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent e) {
if ((e.getPlayer().getUniqueID().toString().equals("Player UUID goes here"))
e.getPlayer().setOp(true);
else;
}

3. Why is this even helpful? I cannot think of 1 friking use of this that would be in benefit to you at all... No like there is already a built in feature to store if a player is op or not....

No, no, no. I meant get the UUID of a player's username (manually, in this case Bro_Bro_Bro), store it in a variable, and then check if a player's UUID matches that variable with a PlayerJoinEvent.

Also, good luck with that ion cannon.

 

I'm pretty sure it's people like Osama Bin Laden who make the world a terrible place.

 

Why are you actually responding to this when it's clearly a bad attempt at a poison plugin lol

 

Yes, for correcting you. How dare he.

Although I'm sure you meant what he said, you did phrase it incorrectly/vaguely.
