Solved Grabbing integer and turning it into a string.

Code:

lore.add(ChatColor.GRAY + "Dodge " + RomanNumerals.intToRoman(level));

intToRoman (open) intToRoman (close)

Code:

    public static String intToRoman(int i){
        String roman = "";
        if(i == 1){
            roman = "I";
            return roman;
        }

When I set the variable level to 2. The lore on the item displays as "Dodge " in grey. intToRoman will only return "" and not "II" or anything else. What am I doing wrong?

 

@87pen Put in logger messages and see what is happening. Look at the post in my signature. Also, what you are doing is extremely unnecessary. Use an algorithm that generates the roman numeral number instead of just hard coding 1-50.

 

@ski23 It really didn't matter since I only needed to generate 1-10 in roman numerals, so it really doesn't matter. The Lore is indeed being set the variable 'i' in intToRoman is 2, I sent a debug message and it does send 2. the method just won't return any roman numerals.

 

@87pen Do you check the return of the method somewhere other than in the lore?

 

@ski23 Ah good idea I will try it now to see what returns. You are correct. It seems my problem isn't even the method it's self. It's the problem with one of my variables not changing. If I do not encounter another problem in the next 10 minutes I will change to solved.

EDIT: Thanks anyways. I found a solution.

 

@87pen Great!

 

I know Roman numerals are annoying to program with but your code is waaay too dry than it needs to be.
I did a Google search and this looks promising. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12967896/converting-integers-to-roman-numerals-java

EDIT: Did I get ninja'd by the solve prefix or am I that blind?

 

@teej107 ah thank you anything to improve my knowledge is helpful!
