Library Holographic Displays v2: an easy way to manage holograms (+ power ups)

filoghost Question How would one remove a floating item? I tried a bukkit Runnable but floatingItem.delete(); removes the item stack and does not change the Melon Block into a Melon Slice.

 

MrDplugins why removing a melon block icon should turn it into slices?

 

filoghost that was the code that It spawns a Melon Block then after 10 seconds its changes into a slice im saying it skips the changing into a slice and immeditely deltes the melon after 10 seconds and the melon slice does not appear.

 

Can I see the code?

 

filoghost https://github.com/filoghost/HolographicDisplays/wiki/Floating-items there is the link for your code and here is the code I'm running

Code:

          Location loc = e.getPlayer().getLocation().add(0.0, 2.0, 0.0);
          ItemStack itemStack = new ItemStack(Material.MELON_BLOCK);
          final FloatingItem floatingItem1 = HolographicDisplaysAPI.createFloatingItem(plugin, loc, itemStack);
 
          new BukkitRunnable() {
              @Override
              public void run() {
                  floatingItem1.setItemStack(new ItemStack(Material.MELON));
              }
          }.runTaskLater(plugin, 10 * 20);
         
          new BukkitRunnable() {
              @Override
              public void run() {
                  floatingItem1.delete();
              }
          }.runTaskLater(plugin, 10 * 20);
         
          }

 

In my code I'm not deleting the item... the problem is that you're changing it and deleting it at the same time, you have two tasks that are executed 10 seconds later, but in the same exact moment.

 

The API will be soon expanded, v2 soon!

 

Updated for the upcoming v2.

 

err whats new in v2?

Sweet thanks.
You wouldn't happen to have a 1.8 compatible standalone Hologram class?

 

No, sorry. A standalone hologram class wouldn't be multiversion and must be updated manually, using an API is much easier.
