[Solved] Healing using an item

I am currently using this code to heal the player:

Code:

if(commandLabel.equalsIgnoreCase("recover")){
player.setHealth(20);
player.setFoodLevel(20);
player.setFireTicks(20);
player.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "You have recovered");
}

But what if I wanted instead of a command, to heal or recover they had to use an item.

What do you mean by use an item?

Like right clicking?

If you're checking for right click, for one you could do something like:

Code:

@EventHandler
public void PlayerInteract(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
    if (event.getAction().equals(Action.RIGHT_CLICK_AIR) || event.getAction().equals(Action.RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK)) {
            Player p = event.getPlayer();
       
            if (p.getItemInHand().getType().equals(Material.DIAMOND)) {
                // All the healing code here
            }
    }
}

I haven't tested it, but what this does is if the player right clicks air or a block, if they're holding diamond it will run the healing code or whatever you want. Of course, you can replace the Material.DIAMOND with whatever item you'd like

By using an item I mean, say if they had a piece of paper in there hand, and clicked with it, then they would heal.

Oh, in that case you'd just do something similar

Code:

     @EventHandler
     public void PlayerInteract(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
          if (event.getAction().equals(Action.LEFT_CLICK_AIR) || event.getAction().equals(Action.LEFT_CLICK_BLOCK)) {
               Player p = event.getPlayer();
 
               if (p.getItemInHand().getType().equals(Material.DIAMOND)) {
                    // All the healing code here
               }
          }
     }

Just replace RIGHT with LEFT

Of course, if you don't care whether or not it's left or right click, then you can simply just do:

Code:

 
     @EventHandler
     public void PlayerInteract(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
          Player p = event.getPlayer();
 
          if (p.getItemInHand().getType().equals(Material.DIAMOND)) {
               // All the healing code here
          }
     }
 

I tried the code, it compiled fine but when I tried to use it, nothing happened.

I could have done it wrong but:

Code:

@EventHandler
    public void PlayerInteract(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
        if (event.getAction().equals(Action.LEFT_CLICK_AIR) || event.getAction().equals(Action.LEFT_CLICK_BLOCK)) {
                Player p = event.getPlayer();
           
                if (p.getItemInHand().getType().equals(Material.PAPER)) {
                   p.sendMessage("If you see this, it works");
                }
        }
    }

Did you register the event?

Probably not, erm which bit do I use register it?

I know "pm.registerEvents(WHAT GOES HERE, this);"

What Goes Here = your listener class

Yep, that was the problem, Thanks.

I forgot 1 other thing, what do I add so after the user used the item, it is removed from there inventory.

Code:

p.getInventory().remove(p.getItemInHand());

Try adding that somewhere, haven't tested it out

Thanks that worked.
