    Very simple request: I need to get the path of the server's root folder so I can get an instance of it in the File class, like File root = new File("path");

    Code:
            this.getDataFolder().getAbsolutePath();
    Not 100% sure if that's it.

    getDataFolder() returns the folder for your plugin in the plugins folder (/plugin/PluginName/)

    I need the base directory.

    Perhaps this is it.
    Code:
    plugin.getServer().getWorldContainer().getAbsolutePath()

    Tirelessly

    getDataFolder().getCanonicalPath().split()

    In that split come up with some way to get the third to last section.

    This appears to work!
     
  7. remember that if the world container folder is changed it wont work, as far I think this is the best solution:
    new File(".").getAbsolutePath()
    as the working directory is the server directory
     
    El_Chupe, Xeiotos and PogoStick29 like this.
