Right click item event.

Hi I have completely forgot how to do this since I have had a while off Java coding.. How do I make it so when you right click the item it sends them a message? Thanks!

What I have so far:

Code:java

package me.sean0402.store;
 
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.EventPriority;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.block.Action;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerInteractEvent;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
 
public class Store extends JavaPlugin implements Listener {
 
    public void onEnable(){
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);
    }
 
    @EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.NORMAL)
    public void onClickEvent(PlayerInteractEvent e){
            Player player = e.getPlayer();
            if(e.getAction() == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_AIR || e.getAction() == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK){
                    if(e.getPlayer().getItemInHand().getType()) {
 
                    }
                }
            }
        }

Player is a CommandSender, so you can sendMessage him.

 

Your code looks good so far. Just add a few pieces more:

e.getPlayer().getItemInHand().getType() returns a Material (like Material.DIRT or Material.STONE). Now just change your if statement to become a boolean, so it looks more like this:

Code:

if(e.getPlayer().getItemInHand().getType() == Material.STONE) {
 
e.getPlayer().sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "You clicked a stone block!");
//ChatColor.GREEN is optional
 
}

You already created a Player called player, you could replace e.getPlayer() with just the word player, but it's your preference.

I hope this helps!

 

Do you use an IDE?
Normally it should show you related methods, if you start typing them. So "player." should show a list of all methods the player class has.

 

e is the event, not the player.

Wait, what? Oops! My bad, just noticed. I misread the line Player player = e.getPlayer();

Will edit code appropriately now to fix this, thanks, SmooshCakez
