Save Data

Okay, I've coded a wilderness plugin. Everything works properly and how I want except one thing:

How do I make it does when a player leaves they can't join and use the /wild command again.

Please provide the ALL possible information I would need, I'm a new person.

Why can't this go back on the original thread you created a while back?

Why are you creating a repeating task? Why not just create a delayed task that waits ___ ticks before removing the player from the cooldown?

Unless your server reloads, this should not even be an issue. You can try storing the player's cooldown time in a config if you want to reapply cooldowns after reloads/restarts.

 

You should not be using the Player object as a key inside a Map. Instead, you should be using the player's Unique ID, as per convention, to link an object to a particular player. To do that, use UUID as your HashMaps key object, and use "containsKey(player.getUniqueId());", for example.

Second of which, using Bukkit scheduling is a large overkill from the actual solution. Instead, you could only be using a single HashMap to handle all of this:

Store a timestamp using a HashMap (HashMap<UUID, Long>). When the player executes the command, check if the player's Long object (stored in Milliseconds) has a delay of at least X amount of time (being the cooldown time). If the player's timestamp is over X amount of time, update the HashMap to the current timestamp, using System.currentTimeMillis().

Sample code for your command method:

Code:

    Player player = (Player) sender;
    long playerTime = cooldown.get(player.getUniqueId());
    long current = System.currentTimeMillis();

    if (current - playerTime < 10*1000L) { // Cooldown of 10 seconds
      player.sendMessage("Wow, you are going too fast!");
      return false;
    }

    // **Teleport player here**
    cooldown.put(player.getUniqueId(), current);
