Help with color

Hey, so i want to change the text this gives to something else.
Heres the code i have:

Code:

                sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You have punched " + punchedName);
                punched.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You have been punched by " + senderName);

Now obviously that gives something around this:
You have punched <NAME>
You have been punched by <NAME>

But... I want it to look like this...
[♥iEmotions♥] You have been punched by <NAME>
[♥iEmotions♥] You have punched <NAME>

Any idea of what the code has to look like?
(Heres my full code)

Code:

package net.skydevs.src;
 
import org.bukkit.ChatColor;
import org.bukkit.command.Command;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandSender;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
 
public class ChatPlugin extends JavaPlugin{
 
    public void onEnable(){ //Server Starts
        getLogger().info("iEmotions has loaded!");
    }
 
    public void onDisable(){ //Server Stops
        getLogger().info("iEmotions has been disabled!");
    }
 
    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] args) {
        //Code
       
        String senderName = sender.getName();
       
        if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("punch") && args.length == 1) {
           
            String punchedName = args[0];
            Player punched = sender.getServer().getPlayer(punchedName);
 
            if(punched == null){
                //Code
                sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You cannot punch an offline player!");
            } else {
                //Code for Punch
                int currentHealth = punched.getHealth();
                if (currentHealth > 0)
                {
                currentHealth--;
                }
                punched.setHealth(currentHealth);
 
                sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You have punched " + punchedName);
                punched.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You have been punched by " + senderName);
 
            }
 
        }
       
        if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("kiss") && args.length == 1) {
 
            String kissedName = args[0];
            Player kissed = sender.getServer().getPlayer(kissedName);
 
            if(kissed == null){

                sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You cannot kiss an offline player!");
            } else {

                int currentHealth = kissed.getHealth();
                if (currentHealth < 0)

                sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You have kissed " + kissedName);
                kissed.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You have been kissed by " + senderName);
 
            }
 
        }
 
        if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("kick") && args.length == 1) {
            String kickedName = args[0];
            Player kicked = sender.getServer().getPlayer(kickedName);
 
            if(kicked == null){
                //Code
                sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You cannot kick an offline player!");
            } else {
                //Code for Kicks
                int currentHealth = kicked.getHealth();
                if(currentHealth > 0) // Warning, this will kill the player
                {
                    currentHealth--;
                }
                kicked.setHealth(currentHealth);

            }
 
        }
 
        if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("hug") && args.length == 1) {
            String huggeeName = args[0];
            Player huggee = sender.getServer().getPlayer(huggeeName);
 
            if(huggee == null){
                //Code
                sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You cannot hug an offline player!");
            } else {
                //Code for Hugs
                int currentHealth = huggee.getHealth();
                if (currentHealth < 0)
                {
                    currentHealth++;
                  }
                huggee.setHealth(currentHealth);
 
                sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You have hugged " + huggeeName);
                huggee.sendMessage(ChatColor.DARK_RED + "You have been hugged by " + senderName);
 
            }
 
        }
 
        return false;
    }
 
}

 

You can just interject different color codes...
"§4You have been punched by §a"+punchedName

etc

 

Kinda new to java (started like a day ago) and i dont understand much about what your saying :/

 

[♥iEmotions♥] You have been punched by <NAME> would be:

Code:java

String s = "["+ChatColor.

Code:java

[COLOR=#000000]LIGHT_PURPLE+"iEmotions"+ChatColor.WHITE+"]"+ChatColor.RED+" you have been punched by "+ChatColor.GREEN+name;[/COLOR]

You cannot do the ♥.
Damnit bukkit, screwing with my text.

 

Yes you can

 

orange451 Can you now? Another thread ended up with another conclusion... If you really are convinced, show me the proof >:3 (in code)

 

player.sendMessage("♥♥♥You're wrong♥♥♥");

 

The code is not working :/

 

linkrock4 yea bukkit is screwing up my code tag, sorry.
String s ="["+ChatColor.LIGHT_PURPLE+"iEmotions"+ChatColor.WHITE+"]"+ChatColor.RED+" you have been punched by "+ChatColor.GREEN+name; hard to see, but works

 

Thanks but the String s apparently is an error :/

 

I recommend you learn the basics of java first.

 

I am learning it right now :/ but i would like it to work pleash

 

orange451 mmh weird always thought it would not. Could be due all the testing with §

linkrock4 the only error my IDE gives me is that name is undefined, as I never defined it. I hope you replaced 'name' with 'punchedName' or 'senderName'. If you get errors in the console, please post those

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

the name is replaced with senderName but its the String s is the problem, it says: the value of the local variable s is not used.

 

Yes, so when you go to sendmessage you send them s..

 

so what should i do to fix this?

 

le sigh, you really need the tutorials I guess :3

Code:java

punched.sendMessage("["+ChatColor.RED+"♥"+ChatColor.LIGHT_PURPLE+"iEmotions"+ChatColor.RED+"♥"+ChatColor.WHITE+"]"+ChatColor.RED+" You have been punched by "+ChatColor.GREEN+senderName);
sender.sendMessage("["+ChatColor.RED+"♥"+ChatColor.LIGHT_PURPLE+"iEmotions"+ChatColor.RED+"♥"+ChatColor.WHITE+"]"+ChatColor.RED+" You have punched "+ChatColor.GREEN+punchedName);

So yea this is what you do

 

I recommend a global header variable.

 

Wanna be my tutor!? And thanks alot, it works

Oh and btw...the ♥ wont let me save :/

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

When you go to save the class, just save it as the mtf5(Just a guess i seriously forget the name of it) or what ever it asks you if you wanna save it as, it'll still work

 

It asks me to save it as a .java ...
Nvm it saved as Utf-8
Thanks!

 

Sigh^sigh^sigh^sigh^sigh

 

Well it worked for my plugin Infected i used to have a nuclear/radiation symbol in the prefix

 

Lol ya edited my reply, it works!
Thanks

 

linkrock4 change the ♥ for \u2665
