Can't find the action for right clicking an entity (sheep)

I've found a few similar, but none exact.

How do I check if a player right clicks a sheep?

Code:

        if(p.getItemInHand().getType() == Material.STICK){ // checks if the item in hand is a stick
            if(e.getAction() == Action.LEFT_CLICK_AIR){ // if player right clicks sheep
            }
        }

How can I check if AIR is sheep?

 

EntityDamageByEntityEvent?
Just check if the damage source is a player and he's holding a stick.

 

I tried doing this, excuse me if I'm wrong. I'm still new to this.

Code:

        if(e.getCause() == (p.getItemInHand() == (Material.STICK))){

Nope, sorry, but not like that.

First, check if the event is not cancelled:
* in your @EventHandler annotation, do that:

Code:

@EventHandler(ignoreCancelled = true)

Then, check if your damager is a player and cancel if he's not:

Code:

if (!(event.getDamager() instanceof Player)) {
    return;
}
 

We also need to check if our damaged entity is a sheep:

Code:

if (!(event.getEntity() instanceof Sheep)) {
    return;
} 

Now, we can finally get our Player object and check if he's holding a stick, and as before, cancel if he's not:

Code:

Player damager = (Player) event.getDamager();
ItemStack inHand = damager.getItemInHand();
 
if (inHand == null || inHand.getType() != Material.STICK) {
   return;
}

Then, just do what you want with it.

Thanks, but what about these errors?

What...?

Where did you get those errors?
I'm pretty sure they're not from my code...

 

Acrobot
The errors are coming from @EventHandler


Before I had it, no errors. But when I add that in, I get those errors

I'll leave it out for now...

 

What about PlayerInteractEntityEvent?

This would be just a right-click on entity.

ZeusAllMighty11
I'm pretty sure you included the wrong @EventHandler annotation. Are you sure it's from Bukkit?

 

I only want a right click, not a left click. Because then I have to go and cancel the damage event lol.

So I think I can use his method?

And yes, I'm using Bukkit's '@EventHandler'.

...

Really...

 

Well EXCUSE ME, that was my original intent.

If there's an easier method, I'll go about. Whether it involves right or left, I don't care.

 

ZeusAllMighty11
Well then, just use PlayerInteractEntityEvent, and instead of checking damager, do event.getPlayer() to get a player, and event.getEntity() (I think, I might be wrong here) to get the clicked entity. Then just check as usual.

 

Ok, sorry if I sounded rude above.

event.getEntity() will not get the entity for PlayerInteractiveEntityEvent, only
event.getRightClicked ()


btw that works for now , so we'll see

 

ZeusAllMighty11
Yeah, getRightClicked() is what I meant

BTW, No problem
