Dominate the flag problem

Hi,
i have a littel problem ... I want to make a game where you can conquere (flags) specified points when you're on it how can i do this?
I thaugt about an array listwith a scheduler and a player move event is that a good idea?

 

@ExecuterMC
You can either use Schedulers or PlayerMoveEvent. Every time it is triggered, check the player's location. If they are on the specified points, "conquer" them.

If you need the player to stand on the area for a period of time before they conquer it, then use schedulers. If not, (if it's an instantaneous conquer), use PlayerMoveEvent.

 

could you give an exact code or example pls

@ExecuterMC

You haven't even explained what you're trying to do well enough for us to understand, so we couldn't give you code even if we wanted to.

 

You might want to check the read me first sticky. We can't spoon feed you code, nor can we help you with a problem without all the details. Could you elaborate on your problem?

Ok i thaught about a check with the Player moveevent to get if he is near enough to a flag to make the count down tick...
Some like that...

Code:

private ArrayList<String> nearbyP = new ArrayList<String>();
private ArrayList<String> red = new ArrayList<String>();
private ArrayList<String> blue = new ArrayList<String>();
@EventHandler
public void (PlayerMoveEvent e){
Player p = e.getPlayer();
for(Entity en : p.getNearbyEntity(5,5,5)){
   if(en.getType == EntityType.ARMOR_STAND){
       if(en.getCustumName().equals("flag"){
        
           if(!nearbyP.contains(p.getName()){
             nearbyP.add(p.getName());
             countdown(20,p.getName());
          }
      }
}
}else if(nearbyP.contains(p.getName()){
nearbyP.remove(p.getName());
}
}
public void countdown(long zeit,String name){
if(nearbyP.contains(name)){
int time = 0;
Bukkit.getScheluders().
.scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(this, new Runnable() {
public void run() {
time++;
if(time == 10){
if(red.contains("flag"){
red.remove("flag");
blue.add("flag");
}
if(blue.contains("flag"){
blue.remove("flag");
red.add("flag");
}
nearbyP.remove(name);
break;
}
},0, zeit);

}

? should it work?

 

The best way to find out is to try

You could just make a scheduler and have a HashSet with all the flags in it and then check once in a while for nearby players. That might be less intensive on the server.

 

@JanTuck don´t think so because it only has to do 1 "if" if the Player is not i rannge..
I will try my version but if someone has a betterone feel free to post i
will spawn the armor stand with holograpics plugin
