Players can take items from SkyBlock to any other map.

Hi guys,can someone of you help me? On my server i have lots of maps and i want to make it so players can't take items form the skyblock map (Im using the UlitmateSkyBlock plugin).

 

stefydubstep I know that this isn't really plugin developing related, but Multiverse-inventories is very easy to set up and does that, along with stats and other stuff like that! Hope this helped!

You could try making hashmaps that store the player's name and then their inventory. Basically, you could do this for the HashMaps,

Code:java

HashMap<String,PlayerInventory> skyblock = new HashMap<String,PlayerInventory>();
HashMap<String,PlayerInventory> othermaps = new HashMap<String,PlayerInventory>();
 

and then when they join skyblock, it saves their inventory in the othermaps HashMap, then clears that inventory,and sets their inventory to the one saved in the skyblock hashmap

 

can you tell me what HashMap is ?

This is what I use them for:
Ok, so imagine a hashmap it a huge storage area. The first variable in the hashmap is a section in the storage area. So in this case, the player's name, or string is the section of the storage area, and you are putting the player's inventory, or playerinventory, in that section. Unfortunately though, you can only store 1 piece of data per storage section, so every time you add a new piece of data to that particular section, that data that you put in will become the new piece of data. But it works towards your advantage with this, so dont worry about that. Anways, every time a player switches maps, if they go away from skyblock, store their inventory with their name so:

Code:java

skyblock.put(player.getName(),player.getInventory());

and then, after you save their inventory as shown above, you would clear it, then set their inventory to their inventory stored in the othermaps with something like this:

Code:java

//I dont know how to set their inventory, but I'm sure there is a thread in plugin development
p.setInventory(othermaps.get(player.getName()));
//Theres no such thing as setinventory, but I'm using that to show you what to do generally

 

Doesnt this belong to Bukkit Help?

 

Norbu10 No but this is what I use them for and also what they can be used for in this situation

 

im new to java dev,i dont know shit,except that i need eclipse and i know a few variables thats all i know...can you help me with that?

 

stefydubstep Learn java. See the learning java section of the plugin tutorial.

 

well...i cant learn java in a few minutes....so yea,can you help me with that?

 

stefydubstep
You mean me?

 

anyone ._.

 

stefydubstep
Ok, so what do you want to know?

 

stefydubstep Well you can't really do much before you know the basics of Java.

Buy a book on Java. However, if you just want to program and aren't set on Bukkit, I think starting with C# would be better.

 

You store the player's name and then their inventory. Now when you go and get the player's name, the hash map returns their inventory. It's like a function table. You put in the x and get out the y. A chart w/ two columns. You find the player name in the left column then go over to the right column and get their inventory. Like that.

 

@idontcare1025 i already have a book of java,but im too lazy to read it lol but seems that im gonna read it....
