How to Stop Fire from Disappearing?

I wanted a Netherrack that could burn on the side, so I wrote a plugin that would stop wool from burning (by cancelling the BlockBurn event.) However, this will not stop the fire from disappearing/fading out after a while. What event, if any, can I cancel to stop this from happening? I have tried BlockBreak, BlockFade, BlockForm, BlockPhysics, and BlockSpread, and none work.

 

I believe this should work:

Use getCause() to find out if it's because of spread. And you can use getBlock() to check if the block is wool

 

I read in the wiki that setting the fire's data value to 15 makes it eternal, but i have never tested it.

 

hmm that may prove useful in the future

 

Using BlockIgnite didn't work.

Exactly how would I set the data value of the fire?

 

block.setData((byte) 15), where 'block' is the fire block.

 

Did you use setCancelled to cancel the event?

 

21B9: How would I find "block"? I'm fairly sure that event.getBlock() will return the block that will be set on fire.
Harry: That is exactly what I was doing.

 

Uhh I'm guessing you would have to check around the block if there's any fire blocks

 

Changing the damage value didn't work. Any other suggestions?

 

When you ignite a block, it will always be air, you are changing the air block to fire, and not actually igniting the material.
So set the byte data of the events block.
