Get TnT Location

I want to stop tnt from launching above sky limit for example, if a player has a cannon at 250 y and it launches tnt above sky limit i want to turn the tnt to air.

I have tried the ExplosionPrimeEvent but that gets called just as its exploding, is there a way to track the tnt as its flying and check its location?

 

BrennyMullan,
Maybe something like this will work:

Code:java

    @EventHandler
    public void onBlockIgnite(BlockIgniteEvent event) {
        TNTPrimed tnt = (TNTPrimed) event.getBlock();
        if(tnt.getLocation().getBlockY() >= 250) {
            tnt.remove();
        }
    }

Alongside Cerberus XII 's suggestion, you may also want to detect a BlockPlaceEvent:

Code:

@EventHandler
public void onBlockPlace(BlockPlaceEvent event){
Block block = event.getBlock;
if (block /*is tnt*/){
/* you may want to include other tests before cancelling event - such as if the player is OP or has perms*/
event.setCancelled(true);
}
}

Hope this helped,
