2 problems, making a player stay on the ground + doing something when a player shoots an arrow.

Is there anyway to see if a player fires and arrow and then if they do, run something?

also i have this code which i want to make the guys just move faster, but it also makes you lfy in any direction you look, how can i make them stay on the ground?

Code:

        if (player.isSneaking())
        {
            if (playerHandler.getRace(player).equalsIgnoreCase("elf")) {
                Vector dir = player.getLocation().getDirection().multiply(2);
                player.setVelocity(dir);

            }
        }
    }

Your first question (the bow firing) you would listen for right-click events and check to see if the player was wielding a bow.

For the second problem, the first thing that came to mind was to check under the player for the first non-AIR block and set the player's y-value one above that. Don't know how this would work in practice though.

 

ok thanks i'll try them both out!

how can i check if there is air underneath the player been searching the javadocs since i posted last message, ive found nothing :S

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Try :

Location l = player.getLocation();
World w = player.getWorld();
Block b = w.getBlockAt(l.getX(),l.getY() - 1, l.getZ());
if(b.getType == Materil.AIR){
//DO somthing
}

 

ok thanks ill look into it (Y)

 

This works too:

Code:

if(player.getWorld().getBlockAt(player.getLocation()).getFace(BlockFace.DOWN).getType().equals(Material.AIR)){
     ...
}

 

thank you kindly
