Solved Clicking Block Problems

Well, I have started coding a crates plugin and I am wondering how can I get the Block name of the .getClickedBlock because I am trying to make it so only if it is a certain chest with a certain name the crate will work. Here is the event code to where I will need it:

Code:

    @EventHandler
    public void onInteractCrate(PlayerInteractEvent e) {
        ItemStack crate = new ItemStack(Material.CHEST);
        ItemMeta cratemeta = crate.getItemMeta();
        cratemeta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.GREEN + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "Crate");
        cratemeta.setLore(Arrays.asList(ChatColor.DARK_PURPLE + "You need a key to open a crate."));
        crate.setItemMeta(cratemeta);
        //
        ItemStack key = new ItemStack(Material.TRIPWIRE_HOOK);
        ItemMeta keymeta = key.getItemMeta();
        keymeta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.GREEN + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "Key");
        key.setItemMeta(keymeta);
        //
        Player player = (Player) e.getPlayer();
        ItemStack hand = player.getItemInHand();
        e.setCancelled(true);
        if (e.getClickedBlock().getType() == Material.CHEST && e.getClickedBlock() //Get ItemMeta name here? How do I do this!) {
          
        }
    }

 

I don't think blocks take the item name when placed. What I would do is save an ArrayList of locations for your crates, or create a Crate class and save those. Check if there's a crate at a location with a method and go from there.

 

What I want is I know the general area of where the crate will be there will only be one chest at spawn should I get the location of the block and make config for them to set the location of the block and check if it is in the location and if so *code code code*? Idk if this will work but I will try it.

 

Yeah, you pretty much repeated what I said. Get the location of the block, save it, and load it at runtime. The code below is just a general idea. I apologize if the code is kinda sloppy, I'm sleep-deprived atm :/

Code:

Location myCrate;

public void loadCrate() {
   // Load the crate
}

public Location getCrate() {
  return this.myCrate;
}

---------------------------------------
Event class
---------------------------------------
if(evt.getBlock().getLocation().equals(crates.getCrate())) {
}

 

Thanks!

I'm not too advanced in Java as I recently started and I am still learning so I did it a different way like this:

Code:

COMMAND:
        if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("setcrateloc")) {
            if (!player.hasPermission("crates.setloc")) {
                player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "Error: You do not have permission to set the location of the crate.");
                return true;
            }
            getConfig().set("crateloc.world", player.getLocation().getWorld().getName());
            getConfig().set("crateloc.x", player.getLocation().getX());
            getConfig().set("crateloc.y", player.getLocation().getY());
            getConfig().set("crateloc.z", player.getLocation().getZ());
            saveConfig();
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "The location of the crate has been set where you are standing.\n Place a chest in your exact spot for players to use.");
        }

Code:

EVENT:
    @EventHandler
    public void onInteractCrate(PlayerInteractEvent e) {
        ItemStack key = new ItemStack(Material.TRIPWIRE_HOOK);
        ItemMeta keymeta = key.getItemMeta();
        keymeta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.GREEN + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "Key");
        key.setItemMeta(keymeta);
        //
        World world = Bukkit.getServer().getWorld(getConfig().getString("spawn.world"));
        double x = getConfig().getDouble("spawn.x");
        double y = getConfig().getDouble("spawn.y");
        double z = getConfig().getDouble("spawn.z");
        //
        Player player = (Player) e.getPlayer();
        ItemStack hand = player.getItemInHand();
        if (e.getClickedBlock().getType() == Material.CHEST && e.getClickedBlock().getLocation() == new Location(world,x,y,z)) {
            if (hand != null && hand.getType() == Material.TRIPWIRE_HOOK && hand.getItemMeta().getDisplayName().equals(ChatColor.GREEN + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "Key")) {
                player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "TEST");
                player.getInventory().getItemInHand().setType(Material.AIR);
            }
        }
    }
