You can subscribe to the PlayerInteractEvent to check if the player is using an item.

The player must use the item.

Use the item in what way? Right clicking it?

Then that would be a PlayerInteractEvent like I previously mentioned

[dusk jetty]

I'm just using TickEvent.PlayerTickEvent, I need the check to happen all the time

@SubscribeEvent
    public void onPlayerTick(TickEvent.PlayerTickEvent event){
        if (event.player.getMainHandItem().getItem() == Items.WATER_BUCKET) {
            if (!event.player.isOnGround()) {
                    if (event.player.getXRot() == 90.0) {
                        //Here need to use water bucket
                }
            }
        }
    }

@shy citrus ?

ohhhh I see.

You want the player to place water under them for as long as they're holding the water bucket

do you want it to consume the water from the bucket or do you want it to just spawn a water block?

[dusk jetty]

The mod is client-side so i need him to use a bucket of water

But now I have a suspicion that event.player covers not just one player (who we play as) but all of them, should I check if it's the main or another player?
