Lightning to specific player

How would i send a lightning strike to a specific player? I figure i just have to find the lightning packet, and send it to the player, right? Which packet is that?

 

you want to strike a player?
player.getWorld().strikeLightenning(player.getLocation());

 

No, that's nothing to do with the OP

Reread it

 

its kinda hard to understand :/.

 

i want to send a lightning packet to a specific player. Basically, only they would see the lightning.

do i have to build my own packet?

 

If you want to send it to one player only, I think you have.

Code:java

net.minecraft.server.EntityLightning el = new net.minecraft.server.EntityLightning(((CraftWorld)world).getHandle(), 0,0,0, true);
net.minecraft.server.Packet71Weather packet = new net.minecraft.server.Packet71Weather(el);
((CraftPlayer)player).getHandle().netServerHandler.sendPacket(packet);

Just felt like writing it for you . Untested

 

Thanks a ton
