getting a sender from a command to a other class

hello,
So i have some problems

I'm trying to make a plugin request but i'm stuck
I gonna try to explain
I have a command /join
When a player does that command the player is getting teleported to a location sort of a lobby
i'm making the teleportation in a method
But how can i get the sender that has sended the /join command in my method class?
Also i need to do that when players leave the game they get back teleported to the lobby also with the method but with a different command
Is there an way that i get the sender from multiple commands in 1 sender in the method?

If you don't understand something just ask

thanks by advance

Code:java

 
boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] args){
    if(sender instanceof Player){
        Player p = (Player) sender;
    }
}

 

i know how to make a command
But how can i get the sender from a command to a other class

If you don't know how to pass method arguments then you need to learn more Java before attempting to create a plugin. I suggest you click on the Plugin Tutorial link in my signature.

 

Okay and if you can show me where i can find the thing about getting the sender in a other class then you can show my because you can't find that thing on your wiki!
And the best way to learn java is making mistakes! not reading a whole site to find 1 thing while the rest on the site you already know !
if you know how to make the sender in a other class? then make it on the wiki because i'm not the only one that needs that !

That is true in some cases but not in terms of programming. To start programming you actually need to have a least a basic understanding of the fundamentals of the language you are working in.

Believe me it will do you more harm than good if you try to learn java as you start developing plugins. It's what I tried to do initially and after a week or so I still didn't understand much. Then after spending a few weeks learning basic Java I came back and was able to get into plugin development much more easily.

I suggest you check out thenewboston's Java tutorials on youtube, links to his videos are on the wiki I referred you to.

 

I know the basics of java i can make my own java games, but bukkit is new to me and i'm trying to do my best to learn bukkit while i'm scripting and it works so my only questions was how i get the sender to a other class

 

Read up on constructors and public variables.

 

I assume you know how to use arrays:

Code:java

 public static ArrayList<String> halo = new ArrayList<String>();

create that then:
if(commandLabel//blablabla){

Code:java

if(!halo.contains(sender.getName()){
halo.add(sender.getName())
 
// ALL YOUR CODE
this.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncDelayedTask(this, new Runnable(){
 
 
public void run() {
 
halo.remove(player.getName());
 
 
}
 
}, <put ticks they are not allowed to type command>);
}
}

Basically the concept is if the player is in the array it means they cant use the command so what we do is if they are not in the array run the command if they are in the array do nothing. If they are not in the array it will add them to the array execute your code then remove them from the array 1 tick later.
