Solved Twitter-Tagging in the Game-Chat...

Hey there,

I'm really confused and I just want to get the Name of the Player when somebody writes maybe:
"Hey there @Homer04"

I did it about a 1 million times with commands but never with the chat. Somebody ever worked on that?

 

Listen for AsyncPlayerChatEvent, use e.getMessage(), and check if it contains the name of an online player.

 

Thats exactly what I have, except:

 

Loop through the online players, each time you loop, check if the message contains their name.

 

And how do I check for the "@"??
There's a difference between:
"@Homer04 who griefed this?"
and...
"I think Alex did it

 

TheLexoPlexx When checking for the name, check for the @ + the name... show code for how you've tried

You need to loop through the online players.. doing what you did wont loop. You wanna do something like this

Code:java

for (Player player : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()) { // for every online player, it will put that player in a Player variable, then you can use player.someMethod(); within the loop.
// post your code here
}

 

So...

Code:

    @EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.HIGHEST)
    public void onChat(AsyncPlayerChatEvent e) {
        if (e.getMessage().contains("@" + Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers())) {
            for (Player player : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()) {
                player.playSound(player.getLocation(), Sound.ANVIL_LAND, 10, 10);
                }
        }
    }

 

TheLexoPlexx
No, you would wanna put this

Code:java

if (e.getMessage().contains("@" + Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers())) {
}

inside the code (for loop) I gave you, also change ("@" + Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()) to ("@" + player.getName())

 

Okay thanks. Hell, I was so confused. Thanks.
