Solved Simulate Bonemeal usage

Hello guys,

i tried to fake the use of bonemeal to create a bonemeal-wand for easy terraforming. I know there are some ways to make this with worldedit, i.e. //flora. But i prefer the natural, random-looking effect of real bonemeal. Especially because of the biome-dependent flowers that get mixed in.

I tried the examples in this thread which uses NMS, but i cant get it to work.

That was my attempt:

Code:

                            int x = player.getLocation().getBlockX(), y = player.getLocation().getBlockY(), z = player.getLocation().getBlockZ();
                            World w = player.getLocation().getWorld();
                    
                            ItemStack i = new ItemStack(Material.INK_SACK, (short)15);
                            CraftItemStack bonemealStack = CraftItemStack.asCraftCopy(i);

                            Item.a(bonemealStack, ((CraftPlayer)player).getHandle(), ((CraftWorld)w).getHandle(), x, y, z, 0);

No method with this signature exists. And there is no "interactWith()" method mentioned in the thread above.
Also the CraftItemStack doesnt have a getHandle(), i think i get something mixed up here, im not really good at NMS stuff.

Any help is appreciated.

You can use CraftItemStack.asNMSCopy(BukkitItemStack) to get a NMS itemstack. But I will look into it, maybe I find a solution. Just wanted to say this, as you said getHandle doesn't exist.

EDIT:
Okay, I found one solution. The best part is, that it is the only public method returning a boolean, which means you can hopefully make it at least a bit version proof using reflection. But here is the code. Explaining is a lot worse than just posting the three lines:

Code:

ItemStack nmsStack = CraftItemStack.asNMSCopy(new org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack(Material.INK_SACK, 1, (short) 15));
ItemDye.a(nmsStack, ((CraftWorld) player.getWorld()).getHandle(),
                new BlockPosition(player.getLocation().getBlockX(), player.getLocation().getBlockY() - 1,
                        player.getLocation().getBlockZ()));

I used the player location as you can see and it correctly let plants and grass grow. Saplings didn't seem to work, but that is thankfully unimportant

 

@I Al Istannen Well, what a nice solution! Thank you very much for your time.

No problem! Glad I could help!
