here are some code snippets (if you wan't more ask, but i think it's not needed)

my onEnable()

Code:java

@Override
    public void onEnable() {
 
        System.out.println("----------[MinigameGUI]---------");
 
        configFile = new File(getDataFolder(), "config.yml");
 
        getCommand("mg").setExecutor(new MinigameGUI());
        getCommand("minigamegui").setExecutor(new MinigameGUI());
 
        new InventoryClick(this);
        new PlayerInteract(this);
 
        try {
            firstRun();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
 
        config = new YamlConfiguration();
 
        loadYamls();
 
        mginv = Bukkit.createInventory(null, config.getInt("rows") * 9, config.getString("minigame_inventory_name"));
 
        MinigameGUI_Manager.loadInventory();
        MinigameGUI_Manager.initalizeInventorys();
        MinigameGUI_Manager.loadCustomInventorys();
 
        System.out.println(" MinigameGUI activated!");
        System.out.println(" Author: MexMaster");
        System.out.println(" Version: 1.0.0");
        System.out.println("--------------------------------");
 
    }

my initializeInventorys (yeah i wrote it wrong i think):

Code:java

public static void initalizeInventorys() {
 
        int currInv = 0;
 
        while(Main.config.isSet("other_menus." + currInv)){
 
            !HERE IS THE ERROR! Main.invens[currInv] = Bukkit.createInventory(null, Main.config.getInt("other_menus." + currInv + ".rows") * 9, Main.config.getString("other_menus." + currInv + ".inventory_name"));
 
            currInv++;
 
        }
 
    }

and this is how i defined my Inventory[] thing...

Code:java

public static Inventory[] invens;

hope anybody can help or has a workaround
btw. i'm not sure if Inventory[] should be used :/

lg

 

I would recommend using an ArrayList to store the inventories. You could use this to initialize it:

Code:java

public static ArrayList<Inventory> invens = new ArrayList<Inventory>();

and use this to add to it:

Code:java

invens.add(inventory);

I don't really see where you're putting inventories to your Inventory[] in your code?

 

oh damn i forgot about arraylists
Thanks, man seems like i'm to long programming today... i can't see a tree in the forest

really thanks
