Cancel DeathEvent from Damage Fall cause

Hey,

I want to cancel the damage event when a player falls to the ground holding a feather. Sadly, it isn't working, could someone help? Here's my code:

Code:

    public void onEntityDamageEvent(EntityDamageEvent ev) {
 
        if (!(ev.getEntity() instanceof Player)) {

            return;

        }

        if ((ev.equals(EntityDamageEvent.DamageCause.FALL))) {

            Player player = (Player) ev.getEntity();

            if (player.getItemInHand().equals(Material.FEATHER)) {

                ev.setCancelled(true);
            }

        }
    }

 

change

Code:java

 
if ((ev.equals(EntityDamageEvent.DamageCause.FALL))) {
 

to

Code:java

 
if (ev.getCause().equals(EntityDamageEvent.DamageCause.FALL))
 

​

 

thanks

 

Same on your other equals comparison:

Code:

            if (player.getItemInHand().equals(Material.FEATHER)) {

You are comparing ItemStack to Material, that won't work. You're missing getType()

Also, there's no need to use equals() on enums - you maybe just did it because your IDE told you "==" doesn't work, which it doesn't because you actually can't compare an ItemStack to a Material.

Use == for enums.

Code:

ev.getCause() == DamageCause.FALL

and

Code:

player.getItemInHand().getType() == Material.FEATHER
