get player name in EntityEvents

[mental tusk]

  const username = event.source.player.username;
  console.log(username);
});```

This returns ```{MINECRAFT_USERNAME}```. Is there a way to get the username when the damage source is a player ?

try event.source.actual.player.username

but you might want to put if (!event.source.actual.isPlayer()) return before that

[mental tusk]

returns undefined

hmm

i haven't worked with fabric much, you might want to wait a bit longer until someone can help

if youre soley trying to get the username of the player on the entity hurt event then it stands to reason you could also do it the other way around and use the player attack entity forge event ```js
ForgeEvents.onEvent('net.minecraftforge.event.entity.player.AttackEntityEvent', event => global.playerattack(event))
/**
*

• @param {Internal.AttackEntityEvent} event
• @returns
  */
  global.playerattack = event => {
  //You can edit anything in here and run /kubejs reload startup_scripts to reload without having to do a full game restart!
  const {entity,target,entity:{persistentData,username},target:{type}} = event
  //This persistent data is important, preventing the event from firing twice
  if (persistentData.fireonce != 1){return}
  //debug stuff
  entity.tell(username)
  entity.tell(type)
  //here we give the player a diamond for hitting a cow :D
  if(type == 'minecraft:cow'){
  entity.give('minecraft:diamond')
  }
  }```

should let you do stuff to the target as you need to

crap im dumb, this is a fabric ticket
