    Hi guys, i know is a so noobie question, but i didnt remember how can i do this. I will explain myself.
    I want to get the name from an entity and compare that name from the config with the section "name".
    Better with an example:
    Code:
    ba04c878-7a1a-4c35-828a-e545a5e8cf8d:
      Name: test
      Owner: Ahrigumi
      Health: 21.0
    
    So.. i want to do a check-line to compare the display name with the string name of this config.

    @Ahrigumi Is this solved? If not then do you want to get just the 'Name' and 'Owner'?
     
  3. config.getString("Name").equals(yourName) should do it. Obviously change config and yourName to whatever your variables are called.

    Hope this helps

    @TheMinecraftKnight You would have to change the "Name" part to also have the UUID of the entity included.
    Code:Java
    1. config.getString(uuid+".Name")/*...*/;
     
  5. Ah yeah, I didn't notice that. Alternatively config could be getConfigurationSection(uuid)

    Sure,
    Code:
    
            Player mensaje = event.getPlayer();
            Horse caballo = (Horse) event.getRightClicked();
            UUID uuid = caballo.getUniqueId();
            AnimalTamer propietario = (AnimalTamer) caballo.getOwner();
            String UUID = main.dueƱosConfig.getString("Horses." + mensaje.getUniqueId().toString() + "." + uuid + ".Owner");
            String caballoName = main.dueƱosConfig.getString("Horses." +  mensaje.getUniqueId().toString() + "." + uuid + ".Name");
    
    Code:
    
                }else if(caballo.getOwner() != null)  {
                    if(caballo instanceof Horse) {
                        if(((Tameable) caballo).isTamed()) {
                            if((main.color(caballo.getName()).equals(main.color(caballoName)))
                                        && (propietario.getName().equals(UUID))) {
                                    mensaje.sendMessage("You are the owner of " + main.color(caballoName));
                            }
                        } 
                    }
                }
    
    So, In the config i save the uuid of the player and the uuid of the horse and more information like the gender, jump, health, etc.
    So in this code im getting the uuid of the entity inside the uuid of the owner and doing an equals to check if the name and the uuid is the same to the information inside of the config.

    The config looks like this
    Code:
    Horses:
      ba04c878-7a1a-4c35-828a-e545a5e8cf8d:     <--- Player UUID
        35923aab-695b-4dd0-96f3-7023b7621349:    <---- Horse UUID
          Name: asd
          Owner: ahrigumi
          ID: 110
          Health: 18.0
          Jump: 2.4
        56275015-edec-4540-8359-7a3bcd804cf2:    <---- Horse UUID
          Name: asd
          Owner: ahrigumi
          ID: 89
          Health: 22.0
          Jump: 2.0

    @Ahrigumi May i ask why you are doing this? If i understand what you are doing correctly, i can think of a few reasons to do this but i still wanna ask why. :7
    Also, a few other things i wanna mention:
    1. This is what we were saying before. 'ConfigurationSection#getString()'
    2. I haven't tested anything myself but i've heard it's faster to load all files onEnable and then get it from a collection or something, instead of loading a file everytime.

    @Ahrigumi I meant "why do you want to check if the two owners match?".
