Using getConfig to teleport a player

I am having troubles teleporting a player using a getConfig so they can right now the world and coordinates, right now I am focusing on the world so my code is:

Code:

    String CTFWorld = plugin.getConfig().getString("CTFWorld");
   
    World world = plugin.getServer().getWorld(CTFWorld);
    Location loc = new Location(world, 668, 4, 113);

and my config.yml is

# Default Config
CTFWorld: TEST

Any help would be appreciated.

Hate to bump, but I need an answer

You should state the nature of your problem.

 

Just going to say I finished typing this out completely and my computer crashed >.> moving on...
Im assuming this is for teleporting to a defined "warp". If this is the case I can help; first of all we are going to need to set the location, this is possible through command or config. (In this case I use a command.)

Code:java

if(commandLabel.equalsIgnoreCase("setwarp")){
Player player = (Player) sender;
String warp = args[0];
getConfig().set(warp + ".x", player.getLocation().getBlockX());
getConfig().set(warp + ".y", player.getLocation().getBlockY());
getConfig().set(warp + ".z", player.getLocation().getBlockZ());
getConfig().set(warp + ".yaw", player.getLocation().getYaw());
getConfig().set(warp + ".pitch", player.getLocation().getPitch());
saveConfig();
player.sendMessage("The warp" + ChatColor.AQUA + warp + ChatColor.WHITE);//not needed but nice to make sure everything worked!

Then you just have to get the "warp's" location information and teleport the player(s):

Code:java

int warpX = getConfig().getInt("WarpName" + ".x"), warpY = getConfig().getInt("WarpName" + ".y"), warpZ= getConfig().getInt("WarpName" + ".z"), warpYaw=getConfig().getInt("WarpName" + ".yaw"), warpPitch=getConfig().getInt("WarpName" + ".pitch");//replace WarpName with whatever you used
.teleport(new Location(.getWorld(), warpX, warpY, warpZ, warpYaw, warpPitch));

I have not tested this but hopefully it should work, if it doesn't just tell me. If you are confused about something, ask!

 

Thanks alot I am testing that now I will tell you how it goes

Thanks that part works, but the problem is that I want them to get teleported to another world which they can write the world name in the config, is that part possible?

You need to make sure the world is loaded in the server. if the world is loaded use this.

Code:java

World world = getServer().getWorld("worldname");
Location loc = world.getSpawnLocation(); //or get use getBlockAt(x,y,z).getLocation();
player.teleport(loc);

 

Okay so the last part of that code is allowing the config to change the .getWorld("worldname"); to the name of the world

 

you would replace "worldname" with getConfig().getString(warp + ".world");

if the command if /warp [warpname]
"warp" would need to be args[0] of the command.

and just make the code given to already this (added the world part)

Code:java

if(commandLabel.equalsIgnoreCase("setwarp")){
Player player = (Player) sender;
String warp = args[0];
String worldname = player.getWorld().getName();
getConfig().set(warp + ".world", worldname);
getConfig().set(warp + ".x", player.getLocation().getBlockX());
getConfig().set(warp + ".y", player.getLocation().getBlockY());
getConfig().set(warp + ".z", player.getLocation().getBlockZ());
getConfig().set(warp + ".yaw", player.getLocation().getYaw());
getConfig().set(warp + ".pitch", player.getLocation().getPitch());
saveConfig();
player.sendMessage("The warp" + ChatColor.AQUA + warp + ChatColor.WHITE);//not needed but nice to make sure everything worked!

this will make the player spawn to the location in the world selected

 

Okay i dont know if that will work or not but here is essentially what i need to work:

Code:

    World world = Bukkit.getWorld(plugin.getConfig().getString("Test"));
    Location loc = new Location(world, 668, 4, 113);

and the config would be
Test: worldname

But that does not work for some reason I get a error with NullPointException

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

 

make sure the world exists. the world has to be loaded in the server

 

It is loaded

 

and my config.yml is

# Default Config
CTFWorld: TEST

Try making it:
CTFWorld: 'TEST'

 

Still not working... I really need this fixed so im going to upload the classes to pastebin and hopefully someone can help me.

Main Class:
http://pastebin.com/u3pdyZDc
Command Executor Class:
http://pastebin.com/feGxrDRm
config.yml:
http://pastebin.com/kf8hBN0V

My world name is TEST and it is my only world so it is loaded. I need this world support for multiverse because who i am making it for has multiple worlds.

 

first off it is recommended to NOT use bukkit in your code which I see you have in a few places.
second, do this instead of having the config.yml thing you have

Code:

getConfig().addDefault("CTFWorld", "TEST");
getConfig().options().copyDefaults(true);
saveConfig();

and lastly use this for location

Code:

Location loc = this.plugin.getServer().getWorld(plugin.getConfig().getString("CTFWorld")).getBlockAt(668, 4, 113).getLocation();

 

That still doesnt work :/ Im still getting null pointer exception, Ugh why does this not work.

 

Instead of chaining method calls together split them up and assign the intermediate steps to local variables. And figure out which part is returning null.

 

When doing tests earlier of why it would not work it was in :

Code:

World world = plugin.getServer().getWorld(CTFWorld);

So something in the new code that is like this is the problem.

 

Chances are its because of where the code is located. try adding that code for world and location just above the code using it instead of above all the methods.
also post the error you are getting.

 

Thats the error, everything I change i still get the same error:

Code:

Anyone know why that is caused?

Bump, hopefully someone can fix this

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

 

Something on line 62 is null

 

So it is this line:
World world = this.plugin.getServer().getWorld(plugin.getConfig().getString("CTFWorld"));
Now does anyone know how to correct that and fix it so it works?

The broken part of it is: getWorld(plugin.getConfig().getString("CTFWorld"))

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

 

You have a world on your server called "TEST" ?

 

Yes

 

Just a random guess cause im kinda noobish but maybe this:
World world = Bukkit.getWorld(getConfig().getString("CTFWorld"));

 

Nope :/

 

Your error is on line 62.

If (team2.contains(player.getName())){

 

That line is fine, it worked before and it works now. I know the problem is

Code:

getWorld(plugin.getConfig().getString("CTFWorld"))

So I need a person to rephrase that so it does work.

 

Bump. I guess.

 

Try checking if the world = null

 

Check what the config has for CTFWorld and make sure that's the actual name of the world

 

World is not null, and that is the actual name of the world
