InventoryOpenEvent help!

[past stag]

Hello , iam trying a very simple thing , but really hard to do :
1- check for specfic chest to open .
2- check for only first player that opned the chest.

this is my code for now .

not working ..

i didnt find a good way , to check for the specfic chest that being open

so i figured that i can check the location , and if player is far from it , then it will not work

if player near the location of chest

it should work

but the code still not working ..

i will go out now , if you know a fix or something that can help please mention me here ❤️

You wanna check if a specific chest is being opened?

@past stag

Listen to inventory open event

Get the inventory

Get the holder

If the holder is not null, check if it is Chest

If it is chest, cast the holder to Chest

[lunar gorge]

Add the chest to a set called open chests

[lunar gorge]

Actually before this, check if this set contains the chest

If it contains it, that means the chest was already opened, if it doesn't it means that the chest is being opened for the first time

[past stag]

iam not home ..

[past stag]

this is the code i use now

[lunar gorge]

Are you looking to see if a player is near a chest?

[past stag]

no , that was a semi fix

i want to check if he open a center chest [if the first player only do that , then continue the code and reward him with the code i set] .

[lunar gorge]

@past stag

[past stag]

yes

iam trying to add this :

[lunar gorge]

Do you know which chest is the middle chest?

[past stag]

only event part stuck at

yes there is a way to get locations

for the middle chest

(Location chest : game.getCenter().getChests()

its a list of locations

and i also can do

this one

i think this is better?

[lunar gorge]

So the first player to open any of the centre chests?

[past stag]

yes

only the first player

i just want to know the best way of making it , and without breaking other guis / plugins

bcz this event triggered when i open any gui

[lunar gorge]

Every time a chest is opened, see if it's one of the centre ones

If it is, then a player opened a centre chest

And then stop checking

For players opening centre chests

Since you only need to do it once

[past stag]

here where i am get stuck xd

iam only stuck at the checking part

[lunar gorge]

What is ultragamechest?

[past stag]

its the center chest

[lunar gorge]

Can i see the class?

[past stag]

its from UltraSkywars plugin

its open source

[lunar gorge]

Can you screenshot it?

[past stag]

yes

there as an api

to get the chest by location

would that help?

get Chest by location?

[lunar gorge]

Gonna give you steps

Delete the whole method

[past stag]

not sure if its correct

[past stag]

alr

Done

[lunar gorge]

Get the player, inventory and inventory holder

And store those

In variables

[past stag]

done

[lunar gorge]

If holder is null or not a chest

Return

Check if! (holder instanceof Chest)

@past stag

Also add (ignoreCancelled=true) to the @chilly ginkgotHandler

[past stag]

right?

[lunar gorge]

Check that it's not null

[past stag]

xd?

[lunar gorge]

Actually not necessary

[lunar gorge]

This works

[past stag]

changed it

ok

continue please .

[lunar gorge]

Right so define a boolean outside the method called firstCenterChestOpened

Make the default value false

[lunar gorge]

Make it private

[past stag]

alr

[lunar gorge]

Check if(first Chest Open) then return

Make that the first line of listener

[past stag]

full code :

[lunar gorge]

Do ctrl + alt + L

[past stag]

done

[lunar gorge]

Next iterate the centre chests

[lunar gorge]

Before this, do Chest chest = holder

Cast the holder

[lunar gorge]

Get the centre chests and iterate

Actually no

Let me look at what u sent above

[past stag]

ok so there is 2 method to get the center

Map<Location, UltraGameChest> invs = center.getInvs();

first is this

and second one is

[lunar gorge]

centre.GetChests for loop

[past stag]

alright

[lunar gorge]

Then check if each location.getBlock.equals(chest.getBlock)

If it is, that means a centre chest was opened

So set firstChestOpened to true and reward ur player

[past stag]

oh i got it

oh my god iam so stupid

like so right?

[lunar gorge]

No

Not type

Location.getBlock.equals(chest.getBlock);

If that's true, a centre chest was opened

[past stag]

alr let me test

last test , and i go study .. i have an exam i didn't study

omg i found it thanks!

you are a life saver

the problem was i wasn't checking if the chest is center

now its works fine , i will add the quest code

Thank you for helping , i still have 1 challenge to do , its also related to inventory that player open xd
