ThrowTNT

Hello all, if you are reading this, I need help on "throwing tnt". I've tried many things to fix it but it is still not working!

If you could just please make a code for me from scratch and take notes off this one? Thanks!

My current code:

Code:

import org.bukkit.*;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.entity.TNTPrimed;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.block.Action;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerInteractEvent;
import org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack;
import org.bukkit.inventory.PlayerInventory;
import org.bukkit.plugin.PluginManager;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
import org.bukkit.util.Vector;
 
public class Main extends JavaPlugin
    implements Listener
{
 
    public Main()
    {
    }
 
    public void onEnable()
    {
        Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);
    }
 
    @EventHandler
    public void onPlayerInteractEvent(PlayerInteractEvent event)
    {
        Player player = event.getPlayer();
        if(player.getInventory().getItemInHand().getType() == Material.TNT && event.getAction() == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_AIR)
            if(player.hasPermission("tnt.use"))
            {
                TNTPrimed tnt = (TNTPrimed)player.getWorld().spawn(player.getEyeLocation(), EntityType.PRIMED_TNT);
                tnt.setVelocity(player.getEyeLocation().getDirection().multiply(2));
                tnt.setFuseTicks(40);
                int amount = player.getInventory().getItemInHand().getAmount();
                if(--amount == 0)
                    player.getInventory().removeItem(new ItemStack[] {
                        new ItemStack(Material.TNT)
                    });
                else
                    player.getInventory().getItemInHand().setAmount(amount);
            } else
            {
                player.sendMessage((new StringBuilder()).append(ChatColor.RED).append("You are not allowed to throw TNT.").toString());
            }
    }
}

Hopefully you can help me, thanks.

What's not working?

 

You need an @EventHandler annotation above your listener.

 

No, it's org/bukkit/entity/TNTPrimed. It just gives an error, I thought it would work because I saw this bit from other peoples throwing TNT thing. I've tried TNTPrimed.class to but that works but it makes an error somewhere else, sorry, I'm on my ipad I can't check it now, got to go to school! Thanks

 

Mr_Squidels
You spawn TNTPrimed.class, not the package name

 

Code:java

TNTPrimed tnt = (TNTPrimed)player.getWorld().spawn(player.getEyeLocation(), org/bukkit/entity/TNTPrimed);

should be

Code:java

TNTPrimed tnt = player.getWorld().spawn(player.getEyeLocation(), TNTPrimed.class);

or

Code:java

TNTPrimed tnt = (TNTPrimed)player.getWorld().spawnEntity(player.getEyeLocation(), EntityType.PRIMED_TNT);

Awesome, it's all working but I just want to add one more thing, a 3 second cool down to use the tnt. I've seen the Schedular programming page and stuff, but I can't seem to set it up with this so could you please help me?

 

Mr_Squidels Try this

 

Don't use schedulers for cooldowns (for goodness sake, this is such a common problem- and now we get to watch a 7 minute long video to tell us the wrong way to do it?)

Just store the last time each player used the command in a hashmap. Check the time when using the command to make sure they've used it long enough ago. Pretty simple really, and not broken like it will be if you use a scheduled task.

 

Hmm, that didn't really work. Can someone else please help me?

Your problem should be solved by now. The only way we could help you is if you give you insight into what your current problem is.

 

He wants to know how to make a cooldown.

 

What about it didn't work? I explained how to handle cool downs for this, did you try it? Get an error? Have any code or stack traces to share?

 

I attempted to try it but I couldn't find out a way to. So someone please help me.

BungeeTheCookie I've tried to implement it but it didn't work. Can you just try to implement it to my code above. thanks

 

Mr_Squidels
This isn't a "code for you" section

Go to plugin requests if that is your only intent of coming here.
