oh
Basically you’re converting the Sender Object to a Player object regardless of if you know that it’s supposed to be one
rose vine
that is what i am trying to say
alpine trail
idk if they can see this thread actually
@shadow heron
you should use
if (sender instanceof Player)
because there are commands that should be console only and player only
shadow heron
i did that and as you can see i checked before if sender is not instanceof player doing (!(sender instanceof Player))
alpine trail
So you want it to be a console command only ?
shadow heron
no just simply i want if the command get executed by console this gave the message of "sorry console you can't do"
alpine trail
That statement is only going to affect the code contained within those {}. Since you’re casting it before, it happens regardless.
@shadow heron could you please provide a code snippet so I can see what you're trying to do ?
rose vine
orientate on this https://paste.md-5.net/ozugugeduj.java first
this is your class but with a better look and the fix with the cast
shadow heron
<@600638620784656385> could you please provide a code snippet so I can see what ...
Sorry as i told to @rose vine i am totally boomer
Can you teach me how to do that?
rose vine
The others and me will help
alpine trail
Do you have any past experiences with java @shadow heron
shadow heron
Never
rose vine
any experience with programming?
alpine trail
How long have you been using the Spigot-API for ?
shadow heron
Also guys... before everything sincerely THANK YOU SO MUCH! Plugin community here just destroy new people trying to approach plugins and java
Just something like 4/5 days i want to create my own plugins
rose vine
alright so a newbie
shadow heron
exactly
alpine trail
Not trying to be rude or anything, but I'd first suggest to learn java before diving into the Spigot API.
rose vine
I learned java with spigot
alpine trail
I learned java with spigot
Same, but I had some experience beforehand.
shadow heron
Yeah I know and I am with the opinion No Spigot Without Java
rose vine
Same, but I had some experience beforehand.
same
shadow heron
But sincerely for what i looked if you try and re-try and try againg you can do this!
I know learning java could be soooo much better
rose vine
question: Do you wanna learn now, or do we fix your problem? (not rude)
alpine trail
But I watched this video when I first started, and it cleared some things up.
I’d first go through a beginner Java tutorial to learn the core fundamentals of programming
Learning declaring variables, casting, assigning, if/else statements, for loops, functions, classes and OOP, etc. will be very useful in the long run
When I started I used a resource called freeCodeCamp, they make decent introductory tutorials on YouTube though they can drag out for quite long
shadow heron
For the moment i can use the datatype... booleans method... so variables ext
i can't do a loop but i know for that i need an hash map
rose vine
i can't do a loop but i know for that i need an hash map
nah not really
alpine trail
Okay yeah you went too far without knowing the basics, and that's kind of a bad thing.
shadow heron
but i know there is a lot of other stuff also
rose vine
do what @alpine trail said and then maybe we can help you better c:
shadow heron
ok I'll promise you guys I'm going to learn it
alpine trail
For the moment i can use the datatype... booleans method... so variables ext
The most common loop is for, you also have forEach, while, etc..
shadow heron
I don't want the help for change
rose vine
ok I'll promise you guys I'm going to learn it
you dont have to do it now but yeah wourld be great. And maybe you can fix your problem by yourself
shadow heron
Just say me where to do it
quaint canyon
Please name your threads more useful names in the future, thanks
rose vine
Please name your threads more useful names in the future, thanks
it was a thread on a message so i dont think you can change it but we'll do
quaint canyon
Yes you can
rose vine
alright
shadow heron
Right now i have problem to take variable of player and intellij says me there are errors in the p
alpine trail
Please name your threads more useful names in the future, thanks
I just made it quickly so the main chat wont get filled up and other people can ask for help, sorry.
rose vine
Right now i have problem to take variable of player and intellij says me there a...
what error?
alpine trail
I think I had used something like this https://youtu.be/GoXwIVyNvX0
As I said it might be kinda long and some of the stuff in the latter half may not be too important yet
Could you provite us the error ?
Beginner needs help
shadow heron
and also i tried doing a NoHitDelay remake doing setNoDamageTicks(using 1.14.4) then but it wasn't working so i tried changing API in 1.8.8 and now setNoDamageTicks doesn't appears in the IDE
rose vine
I think I had used something like this https://youtu.be/GoXwIVyNvX0
As I said it...
hey gUyS 📈📉📈📉
shadow heron
My error is in the compiler
IDE can't understand "p" variable i got with Player p = (Player) sender;
alpine trail
My error is in the compiler
Maybe you're trying to use it before you assign it ?
rose vine
can you send a screenshot?
alpine trail
Because variables can only be used after they're assigned.
rose vine
^
shadow heron
But is 1.14 API i didn't have problems and also god command was working amazing way
alpine trail
So what I'd do is put the Player p = (Player) sender; at the top
shadow heron
Can i just screenshare you or something like that?
rose vine
So what I'd do is put the `Player p = (Player) sender;` at the top
but after the instanceof check
shadow heron
if for you is good i will appreciate that
rose vine
im fine
