Solved Item hovering over head

How would I go threw with this, set the item as a passenger ?

 

Set the item as a passenger and store its uuid in some sort of array.
In the PlayerPickupItemEvent check if the items uuid is in the array, if it is cancel the event.

 

Guessing i'm casting this wrong been a long time.

Code:

Item item = (Item) e.getPlayer().getItemInHand();

e.getPlayer().setPassenger(item);

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_8_R2.inventory.CraftItemStack cannot be cast to org.bukkit.entity.Item

 

ItemStack is not Item. ItemStack is the item you can have in an inventory and Item is an Entity.
You first need to spawn the item entity with world.dropItem(location, itemstack) and then set the entity to the passenger

 

Thank you got it working
