delicate perch
no, thank you! haha
jagged jay
yeah you are suppoed to import "org.bukkit.block.Sign"
change line 8 to "import org.bukkit.block.Sign"
delicate perch
Okay good to know. Thank you!
jagged jay
are you using maven?
delicate perch
Yup
jagged jay
please paste your pom.xml file
tepid arch
No
jagged jay
looks like you have the old spigot version in your pom, that's why your IDE shows you the wrong imports
tepid arch
The one you used is for block data
jagged jay
ooh ok
delicate perch
It suggested two imports and I just chose the wrong one
It works now with the correct one 🙂
jagged jay
does it also work ingame?
delicate perch
Will let you know shortly when I build it
But it has been working fine if thats what you mean
jagged jay
alrighty. if not, the issue is that you're confusing BlockData with BlockStates - but that's an easy fix
so yeah just try it out, and if it doesn't work, let us know
tepid arch
Doesn’t help that Spigot has them reversed
BlockData handles what Mojang calls the states of blocks
And BlockState is what Mojang calls IBlockData

I got a follow up question. So I am setting some PDC data to the block during a SignChangeEvent. But then in a PlayerInteractEvent on that sign I can't retrieve the same PersistentDataContainer data. Thoughts?
tepid arch
You may have to delay the update call 1 tick in the sign change event
delicate perch
I can try that. But I think it might lose them when it runs the getstate cast to Sign. See here https://paste.md-5.net/bozominiso.cpp. The sign2 that tries to retrieve the keys right after they were set doesn't return anything. If I do sign#getPersistentDataContainer() from the same object it works tho
