Help with Teams (winning game)

Hi there,

I'm currently developing a mini-game plugin but I'm lost about how I would check to see if the specified team (red/blue) won the game. Can anyone help with this?

 

Please elaborate on what you mean by "winning". Red kills all the players on blue team? The red team reaches an objective before the blue team?

 

LegitJava All depends on what you want.

 

When all the players on either side of the team are "out" of the game, then the game would stop and the opposite team would win.

 

LegitJava List<String> for red and blue, when a player gets out, remove them from their teams' ArrayList. Then, check if blue.size() == 0, which means red won, and if red.size() == 0, then blue won.

 

How would I do this if I was using an enum for teams? I also am using a PlayerData class as well which gets their specified team, etc. but I don't know if that would make a difference or not.

 

LegitJava you could either do it with a HashMap<String, TeamEnum> or HashMap<TeamEnum, List<String>>. The latter would be done with what I posted above, the the former can be done with:

Code:java

int redSize = 0;
int blueSize = 0;
 
for(String playerName : map.keySet()){
  TeamEnum team = map.get(playerName);
 
  if(team == TeamEnum.RED){
    redSize += 1;
  } else if(team == TeamEnum.BLUE){
    blueSize += 1;
  }
}
 
//Compare sizes

 

Okay, is there anyway I can use my PlayerData class instead of a String in the HashMap and still have this work? I deal with player names in the PlayerData class. I posted the code below, along with another method referencing Teams. All of this code is found in my Arena.java class.

PlayerData Class:

Code:java

class PlayerData {
 
private String playerName;
private ItemStack[] contents, armorContents;
private Location location;
private Team team;
 
protected PlayerData(Player p, Team team) {
this.playerName = p.getName();
this.contents = p.getInventory().getContents();
this.armorContents = p.getInventory().getArmorContents();
this.location = p.getLocation();
this.team = team;
}
 
protected Team getTeam() {
return team;
}
 
protected Player getPlayer() {
return Bukkit.getServer().getPlayer(playerName);
}
 
protected void restorePlayer() {
Player p = Bukkit.getServer().getPlayer(playerName);
 
p.getInventory().setContents(contents);
p.getInventory().setArmorContents(armorContents);
p.teleport(location);
}
 
protected boolean isForPlayer(Player p) {
return playerName.equalsIgnoreCase(p.getName());
}
}

I also have a method using the Team enum.

Code:java

 private Team getTeamWithLessPlayers() {
int red = 0, blue = 0;
for (PlayerData d : data) {
if (d.getTeam() == Team.RED) red++;
else blue++;
}
if (red > blue) return Team.BLUE;
else return Team.RED;
}

I initialized my PlayerData as an ArrayList at the beginning of the class.
