Solved How can I freeze a player?

I have a simple Minigame plugin called BlockRun. I want to freeze a player before they start. They get in by tapping a sign then they are in on their spawns. How can I freeze them? I know PlayerMoveEvent, but how do I add a player to an array (Maybe...) and check if they are in-game then when the game starts they unfreeze all the players. I think basicly the problem is the arrays. IDK how to use them XD.
How can I acheive that???

so create a array using

PHP:

$arrayname = array();

you can then add players to the array by array_push i recomend names

PHP:

array_push($arrayname, $player)

and then to check if player is in array use in_array

PHP:

if (in_array($player, $arrayname)){
//DO something here
}

to remove player

PHP:

if (($key = array_search($player, $arrayname)) !== false) {
    unset($array[$key]);
}


other array stuff i would suggest google

Um... $player = $event->getPlayer() or $player = $event->getPlayer()->getName()?

How do you unset every thing in an array?

reset array just set it again

PHP:

$arrayname =  array();

and just $event->getPlayer() should be good

Thanks! SO if my var $thegameisstarted = true then after that just $arrayname = array();?

I thought you need to put text in arrays. Isn't that names?

First question yea i think i dont get what your asking to well. And for the second one the way i did was easier so later you can get a player from array and sendmessage or teleport directly from the item in array if ($item instanceof Player) of course. Hope that makes sense?

PHP:

if (($key = array_search($player, $arrayname)) !== false) {
       unset($array[$key]);
    }

Should the $array be changed to $arrayname?

Yes!

yea and also $event->getPlayer() also returns player name just for a fyi (at least for me it does)
so the list of player in the array would be by name

How do I make the frozen player able to see around?

PHP:

    public function onFrozenMove(PlayerMoveEvent $event){
    if (in_array($event->getPlayer()->getName(), $this->plugin->freeze)){
    $event->setCancelled(true);
    }else{
    $event->setCancelled(false);
    }
}

??? I saw GrabBag but IDK how to implent it in my plugin...

If x y and z of from and to are the same, don't cancel event.

PHP:

$event->getPlayer();


returns player id! like: Player(1), not a name !
To get name do

PHP:

$event->getPlayer()->getName();


now it will return a name!

That's not just the ID. It returns the Player object, but if you use the object as a string, you would get $player->__toString(), which is implemented in the Entity class: https://github.com/PocketMine/PocketMine-MP/blob/master/src/pocketmine/entity/Entity.php#L1570

Um... Same x y z? Their xyz wi always be the same to their own xyz.

Can you give me an example of letting the players look around but not move?
