Solved Getting the name of Rose Red dye.

Code:

if(item.equals(new ItemStack(Material.INK_SACK, 1, (short) DyeColor.RED.getDyeData())))
                {
                    p.sendMessage("rose red");
                }

This code does not work. If the player right clicks the item in main hand, then it should send a message saying "rose red". The problem is that I did not properly identify the Rose Red dye, but I'm not quite sure how I would.

Thanks.

Do value checks instead of full item checks. Check if the item.getType is an inksack, and that the item.getData is equal to the DyeColor instead of checking if every value is the same. What you currently have will only work if the player is holding one rose dye, any more and it will not work.

 

I can also imagine to make a

Code:

Dye dye = new Dye();
dye.setColor(DyeColor.LIME); //or whatever

And compare the item with

Code:

item.usSimilar(dye.toItemStack());

There are already plenty of threads for that ... https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24722950/how-can-i-correctly-set-a-dye-into-an-itemstack

 

@MightyOne I couldn't find a good one. Thank you two. @Zombie_Striker
