Blocks in a line ! please help :)

Hi,

How would I loop through a clicked Blocks East side line of Blocks until it hits a special block and check what type the special block is plus checking if the Whole line is for example melons ?

Any help is appreciated

Get the location of the block, add 1 to x and 1 to y, check if this is melon block. If not then check the next one. Loop until a melon block is found. Once a melon block is found, keep on adding 1 to x and y through another loop (yes a loop within a loop ) until the block is no longer melon, take away 1 from x and y and that's the location of the last melon block.

 

Craftiii4 if you have time could I have code example XD Im not that good at loops, unfortunately
but if you don't have time just let it be and ill try my self , but note I have tried looping in 3* hours now :C
EDIT: 3 hours

I have done this before, let me find it ;P

 

Craftiii4 Okay, thanks alot for the help

 

Here is an example, I use this to change a flag which could go in either -x +x -z +z & +y

Use it to see how to do it ^^, it won't do what you want to do but it should help you.

Code:java

 
      public static void ChangeFlag(String #hidden#, final Location locationofsponge) {
 
            Location locationoffirstwool = locationofsponge;
 
            while (locationoffirstwool.getBlock().getType() != Material.WOOL && locationoffirstwool.getY() <= 255) {
                  locationoffirstwool.add(0, 1, 0);
            }
 
            final Location locationoffirstwoolfinal = locationoffirstwool;
 
            byte flagcolour = 15;
 
            if (#hidden#.equals("#secret1#")) {flagcolour = 14;}
            if (#hidden#.equals("#secret2#")) {flagcolour = 2;}
            if (#hidden#.equals("#secret3#")) {flagcolour = 0;}
            if (#hidden#.equals("#secret4#")) {flagcolour = 13;}
 
            Location locationon = locationoffirstwoolfinal;
 
            if (locationon.getBlock().getType() == Material.WOOL) {
                  if (locationon.getBlock().getData() == flagcolour)
                        return;
            }
 
            while (locationon.getBlock().getType() == Material.WOOL) {
 
                  locationon.getBlock().setData(flagcolour);
 
                  final Location currentlocation = locationon;
 
                  final World world = currentlocation.getWorld();
                  final double X = currentlocation.getX();
                  final double Y = currentlocation.getY();
                  final double Z = currentlocation.getZ();
 
                  if (true) {
                        Location newlocation = new Location(world, X, Y, Z);
                        newlocation.add(1,0,0);
                        while (newlocation.getBlock().getType() == Material.WOOL) {
                              newlocation.getBlock().setData(flagcolour);
                              newlocation.add(1,0,0);
                        }
                  }
                  if (true) {
                        Location newlocation1 = new Location(world, X, Y, Z);
                        newlocation1.add(-1,0,0);
                        while (newlocation1.getBlock().getType() == Material.WOOL) {
                              newlocation1.getBlock().setData(flagcolour);
                              newlocation1.add(-1,0,0);
                        }
                  }
                  if (true) {
                        Location newlocation2 = new Location(world, X, Y, Z);
                        newlocation2.add(0,0,1);
                        while (newlocation2.getBlock().getType() == Material.WOOL) {
                              newlocation2.getBlock().setData(flagcolour);
                              newlocation2.add(0,0,1);
                        }
                  }
                  if (true) {
                        Location newlocation3 = new Location(world, X, Y, Z);
                        newlocation3.add(0,0,-1);
                        while (newlocation3.getBlock().getType() == Material.WOOL) {
                              newlocation3.getBlock().setData(flagcolour);
                              newlocation3.add(0,0,-1);
                        }
                  }
 
                  locationon.add(0,1,0);
            }
 
      }
