Solved Shoot 3 tnt [Need Help]

Hey,
So what I have now is I shoot 3 tnt in the direction I'm looking but not in the way I want them to spread out... I tried to edit the coordinates but it looked really weird and not what I expected to be like.

I want the tnt be looked like this when I shoot them:

Imgur

Code:

Code:java

 @EventHandler
public void PlayerAbilities(PlayerInteractEvent event){
Player player = event.getPlayer();
 
if (event.getAction() == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_AIR) {
 
if (player.getInventory().getItemInHand().getType() == Material.TNT) {
 
TNTPrimed tnt1 = (TNTPrimed) player.getWorld().spawn(player.getEyeLocation().add(1, 0, 0), TNTPrimed.class);
TNTPrimed tnt2 = (TNTPrimed) player.getWorld().spawn(player.getEyeLocation().add(0, 1, 0), TNTPrimed.class);
TNTPrimed tnt3 = (TNTPrimed) player.getWorld().spawn(player.getEyeLocation().add(0, 0, 1), TNTPrimed.class);
 
tnt1.setVelocity(player.getEyeLocation().getDirection().multiply(2));
tnt2.setVelocity(player.getEyeLocation().getDirection().multiply(2));
tnt3.setVelocity(player.getEyeLocation().getDirection().multiply(2));
 
tnt1.setFuseTicks(40);
tnt2.setFuseTicks(40);
tnt3.setFuseTicks(40);
 
tnt1.setYield(2);
tnt2.setYield(2);
tnt3.setYield(2);
}
}
}

I know I did the x, y, z coordinate and that means it's the x, y, z coordinates of the world and not where the player is looking at.

How to fix this?

Thank you,

I forgot to mention; Is it possible to explode a tnt right on hit with the ground/wall?

Bump... Really no one?

 

Bump.... Come on....

 

OK, ok, enough bumping. You can infact make the tnt explode on impact with this event:

Code:java

public void onEntityHit(EntityHitEvent e) {
if (e.getEntity instanceof TNTPrimed) {
e.getEntity.getWorld().createExplosion(e.getEntity.getLocation(), 1.0f, false);
}
}

This will only create an explosion there where the tnt lands and it doesn't remove it...? Or am I wrong?

 

These are the vectors I used for sth nearly the same like this:

Code:java

 
//You can lower the spread factor by lowering the + 0.3 double
Vector vec1 = new Vector(p.getLocation().getDirection().getX(), p.getLocation().getDirection().getY() + 0.3, p.getLocation().getDirection().getZ());
Vector vec2 = new Vector(p.getLocation().getDirection().getX() + 0.3, p.getLocation().getDirection().getY() + 0.3, p.getLocation().getDirection().getZ());
Vector vec3 = new Vector(p.getLocation().getDirection().getX(), p.getLocation().getDirection().getY() + 0.3, p.getLocation().getDirection().getZ() + 0.3);
 

If you create falling tnt blocks, you could listen for EntityChangeBlockEvent and spawn primedtnt at the hitlocation with fuse 0.

ex:

Code:java

 public void onTnTCollision(EntityChangeBlockEvent e) {
 
if(!(e.getEntity() instanceof FallingBlock)) return;
 
FallingBlock fb = (FallingBlock) e.getEntity();
 
e.setCancelled(true);
 
TNTPrimed tnt = fb.getWorld().spawn(fb.getLocation(), TNTPrimed.class);
tnt.setFuseTicks(0);
}

Or, if you want to directly spawn primedtnt, you have to, like Skatedog27 said, listen for the EntityHitEvent:

Code:java

public void onEntityHit(EntityHitEvent e) {
if (e.getEntity instanceof TNTPrimed) {
 
TNTPrimed tnt = (TNTPrimed) e.getEntity();
//Force the tnt to explode
tnt1.setFuseTicks(0);
 
}
}

or you could also do:

Code:java

public void onEntityHit(EntityHitEvent e) {
if (e.getEntity instanceof TNTPrimed) {
 
TNTPrimed tnt = (TNTPrimed) e.getEntity();
tnt.getWorld().createExplosion(tnt.getLocation(), 1.0f, false);
tnt.remove();
 
}
}

I didn't test the code, but it should work

 

GrameTV, Nice thanks man gonna check it out when I'm back home .

GrameTV. Alright I'm home and I did some tests with the spread but how can I do it that it shoots the same if a player looks in any direction?

GrameTV and I just saw that "EntityHitEvent" doesn't exist.

It shoots the same, it just follows the direction. I assumed that Skatedog27 said the truth, but i didn't check for its existance. But anyways, you should do it with Falling Blocks I think.

 

Josh014 that will should remove the tnt, after all, it is blowing up. You can also change the amount of ticks until the tnt explodes.. however.. I do not know how to do that off of the top of my head

 

Skatedog27
The "EntityHitEvent" doesn't exist...

 

Are you sure?? Hmmmm.... does your code look like this?

Code:java

@EventHandler
public void onEntityHit(EntityHitEvent event) {
    //stuff
}

 

Skatedog27,
Yes there is no such as "EntityHitEvent", there is a "ProjectileHitEvent". I don't know if you meant that one?

 

hmmm... thats

thats odd. Primed TNT isnt a projectile. It is an entity. Tomorrow I will code a plugin for what you are trying to do, and paste my code here, so you can see how I did it. Until then, im getting to bed. So tired, otherwise I would do it right now

 

Skatedog27 Alright man!

 

This works just fine, apparently, the ProjectileHitEvent can call for entities as well as projectiles.

Code:java

@EventHandler
    public void onProjectileHit(ProjectileHitEvent e) {
        if (e.getEntity() instanceof TNTPrimed && e.getEntity().getShooter() instanceof Player) {
            e.getEntity().getWorld().createExplosion(e.getEntity().getLocation(), 1.0f, false);
        }
        return;
    }

 

Skatedog27
Thanks man! It worked fine for me .
