off PVP between players in array

i have array blueTeamPlayers [player->getName()]
i try turn off PVP for this array but doesn´t work.

PHP:

//comment
public function onHurt(EntityDamageEvent $event){
            if($event instanceof EntityDamageByEntityEvent) {
                    $attacker = $event->getDamager()->getPlayer();
                    $victim = $event->getEntity()->getPlayer();
                    if (isset ( $this->getPlugin()->blueTeamPlayers [$attacker->getName ()] ) && isset( $this->getPlugIn()->blueTeamPlayers [$victim->getName()])) {                      
                        $event->setCancelled(true);
                    }
            }
        }

Who told you to use getDamager()->getPlayer() ? That's wrong, and that doesn't check whether the damager is a player.

So should i use instanceof player?

PHP:

public function onHurt(EntityDamageEvent $e){
  if($e instanceof EntityDamageByEntityEvent){
    $damager = $e->getDamager();
    $victim = $e->getEntity();
    if($damager instanceof Player and $victim instanceof Player){
     // execute logic here. NO NEED TO getPlayer()!!! YOU ALREADY GOT A PLAYER OBJECT!
    }
  }
}

Thx

this is my code but doesn´t work :/

PHP:

public function onHurt(EntityDamageEvent $event){
            $blueTeamSpawnPos = $this->getSetup ()->getGamePos ( CTFSetup::CTF_GAME_ARENA_POSITION_ENTRY_BLUE_TEAM );
            $redTeamSpawnPos = $this->getSetup ()->getGamePos ( CTFSetup::CTF_GAME_ARENA_POSITION_ENTRY_RED_TEAM );
            $yellowTeamSpawnPos = $this->getSetup ()->getGamePos ( CTFSetup::CTF_GAME_ARENA_POSITION_ENTRY_YELLOW_TEAM );
            $greenTeamSpawnPos = $this->getSetup ()->getGamePos ( CTFSetup::CTF_GAME_ARENA_POSITION_ENTRY_GREEN_TEAM );
            if($event instanceof EntityDamageByEntityEvent) {
                $attacker = $event->getDamager();
                $victim = $event->getEntity();
           
            if ($event->getEntity() instanceof Player && $event->getDamager() instanceof Player) {
                if($this->getPlugIn()->ingame == false){
                $event->setCancelled(true);
            }
                 if ( isset($this->getPlugin()->redTeamPlayers[$event->getEntity()->getName()]) && isset($this->getPlugin()->redTeamPlayers[$event->getDamager()->getName()])) {
                     $event->setCancelled(true);
                 } elseif( isset($this->getPlugin()->blueTeamPlayers[$event->getEntity()->getName()]) && isset($this->getPlugin()->blueTeamPlayers[$event->getDamager()->getName()])) {
                    $event->setCancelled(true);
                }
                elseif( isset($this->getPlugin()->yellowTeamPlayers[$event->getEntity()->getName()]) && isset($this->getPlugin()->yellowTeamPlayers[$event->getDamager()->getName()])) {
                    $event->setCancelled(true);
                }
                elseif( isset($this->getPlugin()->greenTeamPlayers[$event->getEntity()->getName()]) && isset($this->getPlugin()->greenTeamPlayers[$event->getDamager()->getName()])) {
                    $event->setCancelled(true);
                }
                elseif(isset($this->getPlugin()->lobbyPlayers[$event->getDamager()->getName()])) {
                    $event->setCancelled(true);
                }
}

A good idea is to use an SQLite3 database for this.

But this should work too so why not?

Avoid hardcoding the 4 teams as fields. Put four arrays/objects representing teams inside one array field instead.

Can you make example please? Idk what do you think Thx

Have a look at LegionPE plugin source code (spleef part):

Spoiler: code

This is not about teams, but it explains how you handle multiple groups of players.
