Thanks but i dont get how to set it up with my gui.

Please explain more on what your trying to achieve.. Like do you want data written to a config file? Read data from the config file etc.

What do you mean set it up in your GUI?

Use ChatColor.translatelternatecolorcodes('&', msg)

 

[HuskyGG]

Use ChatColor.translatelternatecolorcodes('&', msg)

Thanks, also im new to if statments and things so how would i -
main.clicked = e.getCurrentItem().getItemMeta().getDisplayName();
main.frozen = main.clicked.
Player frozen = Bukkit.getPlayer(main.clicked);
player.sendMessage(freezeMessage.replace("%frozen%", e.getCurrentItem().getItemMeta().getDisplayName()));
frozen.sendMessage(frozenMessage.replace("%player%", player.getName()));
player.closeInventory();
Make main.frozen revert main.clicked to a normal player and not a frozen player? If that makes sense

wat.

 

[HuskyGG]

wat.

Ok, so ive got this code:

 main.clicked = e.getCurrentItem().getItemMeta().getDisplayName();
                main.frozen = main.clicked.
                Player frozen = Bukkit.getPlayer(main.clicked);
                player.sendMessage(freezeMessage.replace("%frozen%", e.getCurrentItem().getItemMeta().getDisplayName()));
                frozen.sendMessage(frozenMessage.replace("%player%", player.getName()));
                player.closeInventory();

I want it so when main.frozen:

 main.frozen = main.clicked.

is executed it reverts the main.clicked:

main.clicked = e.getCurrentItem().getItemMeta().getDisplayName();

player go back to a normal player and not execute the freeze code.

I'm genuinely confused about what you're trying to do.

Is this inside an event, command..? None of this code makes sense.

Ok, i am making a freeze player plugin. And when you type /freeze it opens a gui with all of the players on the server at that time, once you click a player its executes this code

                main.clicked = e.getCurrentItem().getItemMeta().getDisplayName();
                main.frozen = main.clicked;
                FrozenGUI frgui = new FrozenGUI(Bukkit.getPlayer(main.clicked));
                Player unfreeze = Bukkit.getPlayer(main.frozen);
                Player frozen = Bukkit.getPlayer(main.clicked);
                player.sendMessage(freezeMessage.replace("%frozen%", e.getCurrentItem().getItemMeta().getDisplayName()));
                frozen.sendMessage(frozenMessage.replace("%player%", player.getName()));
                frozen.openInventory(frgui.finv);
                player.closeInventory();

And the player that is marked as frozen via main.clicked cannot move from this code:

    @EventHandler
    public void onMove(PlayerMoveEvent e) {
        Player frozen = Bukkit.getPlayer(main.clicked);
        frozen.teleport(frozen);
    }

I want it so when someone types /unfreeze it uses the main.frozen and it makes the frozen player revert back to a nromal player that isnt main.clicked.

God, that is a terrible idea. What if there is like 900 players on a server. You're going to just look through all of them until you get lucky?[DOUBLEPOST=1503321412][/DOUBLEPOST]Also, Wtf is main.freeze? Is it a variable?

Okay so this isn't a good way to do it, you'll want to store frozen player uuids in an ArrayList (so the plugin can support multiple frozen players at once).

When you click on the player's head you'll want to save their UUID into the list, then when they try and move instead of doing frozen.teleport(frozen), you'll need to check if the player's uuid is in the arraylist, if it is then do event.setTo(e.getFrom())

Let me know how it goes.

Thank you i shall try that now.
