How to check if an entity is on fire?

Hello
I want to create a "pyro" class for a game I'm working on.
Pyros have bows with flame enchantments on them and a diamond axe.
Is it possible to check if the player is on fire when the pyro hits them with a diamond axe?

 

You could try LivingEntity.getFireTicks != 0

 

Check the damage cause for fire & firetick, if it's a LivingEntity.

 

Code:

LivingEntity.getFireTicks != 0

with what event?
then what would i do after that?

 

EntityDamageByEntityEvent?
What do you want to do after that?

 

Check if it was getting hit by a diamond axe, then set the entity that is on fire's health to 0.

 

Code:java

 
    @EventHandler
    public void checkDamage(EntityDamageEvent event) {
        if(event.getEntity() instanceof Player) {
            if(event.getCause() == DamageCause.FIRE || event.getCause() == DamageCause.FIRE_TICK) {
                // Now you can do things.
            }
        }
    }
}
 

 

It doesn't check if the player is being hit by a diamond axe, though.

 

ITC no-one reads.
OP, hold on 5 minutes.

Code:java

@EventHandler
    public void onDamage(EntityDamageByEntityEvent event) {
        if (event.getDamager() instanceof Player) { // Is the damager a player?
            Player player = (Player) event.getDamager(); // Cast damager to player
            if (player.getItemInHand().getType() == Material.DIAMOND_AXE && event.getEntity().getFireTicks() != 0) { // Is the damager hitting with a diamond axe and is the entity hit burning?
                if (event.getEntity() instanceof Player) { // Is the entity a player?
                    Player hurt = (Player) event.getEntity(); // Cast entity to player
                    hurt.damage(9001); // Ensure death
                } else {
                    event.getEntity().playEffect(EntityEffect.DEATH); // Fake death
                    event.getEntity().remove(); // Remove from world
                }
            }
        }
    }

Code:java

 
    @EventHandler
    public void checkDamage(EntityDamageByEntityEvent event) {
        if(event.getDamager() instanceof Player && event.getEntity() instanceof Player) 
        {
            Player victim = (Player)event.getEntity();
            Player damager = (Player)event.getDamager();
            if(damager.getInventory().getItemInHand().getType() == Material.DIAMOND_AXE) 
            {
                if(victim.getFireTicks() > 0) 
                {
                    // Now do things.
                }
            }
        }
   }
 

If that doesn't work, try:

Code:java

 
        if(event.getDamager() instanceof Player && event.getEntity() instanceof Player) 
        {
            final Player victim = (Player)event.getEntity();
            Player damager = (Player)event.getDamager();
            if(damager.getInventory().getItemInHand().getType() == Material.DIAMOND_AXE) 
            {
                Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleAsyncDelayedTask(plugin, new Runnable() {
                    @Override
                    public void run() {
                        if(victim.getFireTicks() > 0) 
                        {
                            // Now do things.
                        }
                    }
                }, 10);
            }
        }
