Message

Good time, I have a question: how to send a message to all except a certain player, for example, Steve?

PHP:

$this->getServer()->getPlayer("Steve")->sendMessage("BlaBla");

To All except Steve

This might help, it might wrong tho

PHP:

$list = $this->getServer()->getOnlinePlayers();
$name = "Steve";

if($list[$name]->getName() == "Steve") { //sorry i have to get player object with name Steve and get it name, then compare with Steve :P
       return false;
   } else {
       $list->sendMessage("Bla?");
 }

Better this:

PHP:

foreach($this->getServer()->getOnlinePlayers() as $p)
         if($p->getName() !== "Steve")
                $p->sendMessage("Hello!");


You can't send a message to an array.

He can does because it's an players array but he can't do $list[$name] because $name is a string not an integer index.

Please explain to me how this should work.

PHP:

$this->getServer()->getOnlinePlayers()->sendMessage("Doesn't work.");

Code:

[Server thread/CRITICAL]: Error: "Call to a member function sendMessage() on array" (EXCEPTION) 

Any idea CraftYourBukkit? Need it either :/

PHP:

function broadcastMessage($players, string $message, Player $except = null) {
   $players = $players instanceof Player ? [$players] : $players;
   foreach($players as $player) {
      if($player !== $except) $player->sendMessage($message);
   }
}


I didn't mean this, I have seen now the error. He didn't use $list[index]->sendMessage ("Hello");
