Solved Custom Event Message Help

Hello, I'm making an API for my plugin and want to have custom events where you can use "event.setMessage("Your message")" everything works the event is being called but the event.setMessage isn't working, the message doesn't change please help

Code:

public class CustomEventTest extends Event {

    private Player p;
    private Manager manager;
    private String message;


    public CustomEventTest(Player p, Manager manager) {
        this.p = p;
        this.manager = manager;
                message = manager.message;
        p.sendMessage(message);
    }
  
    public String getMessage() {
        return message;
    }
  
    public void setMessage(String message) {
        this.message = message;
    }
  
    public Player getPlayer() {
        return p;
    }

    private static final HandlerList handlers = new HandlerList();

    @Override
    public HandlerList getHandlers() {
        return handlers;
    }
  
    public static HandlerList getHandlerList() {
        return handlers;
    }

Code:

@EventHandler
    public void onCustomEventTest(CustomEventTest event) {
        Player p = event.getPlayer();
        p.sendMessage("Test");
        event.setMessage("Hi"); // It still sends the message thats in the Manager class
);
    }

This is just a guess, but try changing the name of the argument in setMessage.

 

ok I'll do that now and get back to you

This is your problem. You're automatically sending the message when the event is created. You need to trigger p.sendMessage after in the method that creates the event, not inside the constructor.
