Solved Help with printing out how many items are in a stack to the player.

Hi! I'm trying to create a economy plugin that has commands like /buy, /sell, etc. I've mostly got it down, but when I do /sell, It returns "You have sold ItemStack{STONE x 64} for 0. Your new balance is 25. What I want it to do print "You have sold 64 stone for x. Your new balance is x".

Heres the code:

Code:java

else if(command.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("sell")){
                int globalsellint = this.getConfig().getInt(Player.getItemInHand().toString() + "Price") * this.getConfig().getInt("globalsellmultiplier") ;
                EconomyResponse sellitems = economy.depositPlayer(Player.getName(), globalsellint);
                if(sellitems.transactionSuccess()){
                    sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "[GlobalShop]" + ChatColor.BLUE + "You have sold " + Player.getItemInHand() + Player.getItemInHand().getAmount() + "Price");
                    sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.BLUE + "Your new balance is " + sellitems.balance);
                    Player.getInventory().removeItem(Player.getItemInHand());
                }

Being that this is my first plugin, all help is appreciated.
NOTE: The reason for the word 'price' after toString is because in the config, I have the items setup like stonePrice: 1

Thanks,
Drew

 

use String methods like .replace(String old, String new) and other useful ones. And after all of this, print message.

 

Dont print Player.getItemInHand(), it returns an itemstack, which doesn't look pretty in chat.
Instead try using

Code:java

sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "[GlobalShop]" + ChatColor.BLUE + "You have sold " + Player.getItemInHand().getAmount() + " " + Player.getItemInHand().getType());
 

 

String sold = "" + player.getItemInHand().getType();
int amt = player.getItemInHand().getAmount();
"You have sold " + (Character.toUpperCase(sold.charAt(0))+sold.substring(1) .replace("_", " ") + " x" + amt)

"You have sold Mossy cobblestone x64" (an example)

Also, your sig, "isStraight" suggests a boolean return, but the method's return type is void. And you're missing a }. Just saiyan.

 

Loop through everything in the list and send a message for every item

 

Best suggestion ever, great contribution

 

I was trying to help as I can dude, I just had like 5 minutes on my phone and saw this thread. I was hoping for him to get something out of it rather than somebody being rude about it.
