Solved Get the location of a double chest.

I'm using a BlockPlaceEvent to track when players place chests. if the chest they place creates a double chest I need to get the location of it. Since the Block placed is a single chest i can not find a way to retrieve it as a DoubleChest. Any ideas?

 

You can get a Chest from a placed chest block, regardless of whether it's a double chest or not. But, if you really need to get the other half of the double chest, check the adjacent blocks' (x + 1, x - 1, z + 1, z - 1) types and compare them to Material.CHEST.

 

My problem is i need to save the location of the DoubleChest, and i dont know what side of the chests location it saves. I can get the location of each single chest but i need to work out which 1 is equal to the location of the double.

Solved it myself:

Code:

@EventHandler
    public void PlaceEvent(BlockPlaceEvent e){
        Block block = e.getBlockPlaced();          
        if (block.getState() instanceof Chest){
            Chest chest = (Chest) block.getState();
            InventoryHolder ih = chest.getInventory().getHolder();
            if (ih instanceof DoubleChest){
                DoubleChest dc = (DoubleChest) ih;
            }
        }
    }
