Solved How can I get the blocks on which it snows?

Is there a way to get the blocks where it snows upon them?

 

Get the biome and hardcore in a list of what biomes it snows in as opposed to rains.

I wasn't 100% sure what you meant, but I think that's what you mean.

 

nearly.
I wanted to get every block where snow is falling uppon.

 

Oh. Not sure how to do that really, sorry.

 

okay.
You tryed it.
Thanks

 

try doing it with another way, make an map with nearly all the block types, set the biome to an snow biome, and make an plugin, that creates an unique list of block id where snow is on allowed using that map, you got it?

 

Idon't want to set the blocks, where snow can fall.
I want to get every block where snow is falling uppon.

 

It depends on how many times do you need to call this method. Or, exactly, do you need to keep database of these blocks. If no, you can simply filter highest block at each coordinate for biome and material id.

 

I want to get these blocks, every time, when it snows on them

does nobody knows this??

What are you trying to do? Maybe there's a better way.

 

for example: I want to set every block where snow is falling upon to a gold block (but not only those, where a snow layer forms.).

 

Event Handler For when a block changes to a snow block. Something like when lava and water makes a cobblestone block. It's like that.

 

but when it snows on snow?

 

Checking through the code on Github, it doesn't look like there's an event handler for falling snow. In other words: With Bukkit, you can't get the blocks on which it snows. However, using NMS classes, you should be able to. It looks like you'd *probably* need to @Override the
net.minecraft.server.BlockSnow.n(World, int, int, int)
method. (as long as we're talking 1.3.2. Any changes, and the method name will most likely change as well.)

But be very careful. NMS classes are not kept squeaky clean by the Bukkit team for you--they can go rotten when you're not watching. You've been warned.

 

Use BlockFormEvent, get the block that formed, if it is a snowcover block, get the block underneath of it using b.getRelative(BlockFace.DOWN) and go from there!

 

travja: But when It snows on a snowcovered block, nothing forms, so I don't get this block.

 

nathanaelps: Can you give my a code example for this?

Another question: Who can I check if it rains/snows?

Found a way to do it.

Share!

 

tomorrow

 

Yes please share! I need to do this as well

 

get the all loaded chunks if it storms get all highest blocks of the loaded chunks then get their biome and test whether it snows in this biome or not.

 

And this will get all blocks it is currently snowing on? It seems like this would lag the server quite a bit when it starts to snow.

 

That's right, but i didn't jound a better solution.
Do you have one?
