How to impliment chat commands

i have a varible.

we will just call it size for now

so the code is

size = 5

How would i change that 5 with a chat command

ex. /Size 3

i cannot figure it out

 

You first need to hook the command (see This thread)
Then you need to parse the argument to the command (the number after it) and change the variable if it exists + is a number etc.

 

You mean this thread?

 

This is kinda the basic idea that I'm aware of.

Code:

public boolean onCommand(Player player, Command command, String commandLabel, String[] args) {

String commandName = command.getName().toLowerCase();
            if(commandName.equalsIgnoreCase("size")){
size = args[0];
return true;
}
return false;
}

A bit sleepy though, so syntax may be wrong and that's more along the lines of theory code. I dont know where/how you have you size variable. Also I'm just starting to read on plug ins, so everything could be completely wrong.

Hope that helps.

 

Thank you xD Didnt stumble acrost that

Oh, sorry... when i looked it seemed the link was missing.

 

No worries. At first I thought I'd got the thread wrong but then I checked and the head-scratching started
