Player $data

Hey there!

I have tried the following:

PHP:

$this->api->chat->broadcast($data." moved!");


When i debug that scene, my server crashes.

What's the problem?
I want to display the players name..

Thank you! Do you know how i save the contents to a config file?
For example:

kevin:
x=X
y=Y
z=X
niki:
x=X
y=Y
z=X

I know how to get the data.

Thank you very much!

I know. It was just to demonstrate you what i mean. I always try things like this to get to my final end-product which is completely different

I tried it, but it gives me this error:

Code:

# PocketMine-MP Error Dump Sun Nov 10 12:29:51 GMT 2013
Error: array (
  'type' => 1,
  'message' => 'Cannot use object of type Entity as array',
  'file' => 'C:\\Users\\Niklas_2\\Documents\\Programmierung\\PocketMine\\TestServer\\Hide and Seek\\PocketMine-MP\\src\\API\\PluginAPI.php(87) : eval()\'d code',
  'line' => 115,
)

The code that i have:

PHP:

    case 'player.move':

    $username = $data['player']->username;

    $x = $data['player']->x;
    $y = $data['player']->y;
    $z = $data['player']->z;

    $this->config->set($username, array(
    "x" => $x,
    "y" => $y,
    "z" => $z,
    "hider" => true,
    "isBlock" => true
    ));

    $this->config->save();

Ok. I'll try

Tried it. It no longer crashes with this code:

PHP:

$username = $data->username;

    $x = $data->x;
    $y = $data->y;
    $z = $data->z;

    $this->config->set($username, array(
    "x" => $x,
    "y" => $y,
    "z" => $z,
    "hider" => true,
    "isBlock" => true
    ));

    $this->config->save();

But the config output is this:

Code:

---
:
  x: '189.47663879395'
  y: 64
  z: '120.70510864258'
  hider: true
  isBlock: true

It doesn't show the player name...

Also, how do i retrieve for example 'notch' data?

The config should look like this for example:

Code:

---
notch:
  x: '189.47663879395'
  y: 64
  z: '120.70510864258'
  hider: true
  isBlock: true
niki:
  x: '189.47663879395'
  y: 64
  z: '120.70510864258'
  hider: true
  isBlock: true

How do i get notch's x coordinate out of the config?

I will try that. But why doesn't it save the players username to the config?

I was wondering something similar to this, but I didn't really get what happened up their. I am trying to swap 2 players position in my plugin (probably using config files), so how exactly would I save each of their positions to config files and then get Player1's position from the file and make it player2's position and vice versa? Thanks for any help.

You don't need a config for that.
Here's a script that does it:

PHP:

//Getting all online players
$all = $this->api->player->getAll();
//Shuffle array with player objects
shuffle($all);
$times = 0;
$x;
$y;
$z;

foreach($all as $player){
$times++;
if($times == 1){
//Saving position of player 1
$x = $player->x;
$y = $player->y;
$z = $player->z;
}
if($imes == 2){
//Teleporting first player in $all to second player
ConsoleAPI::run("tp ".$all[0]->username." ". $player->username);
//Teleporting second player to set coordinates.
ConsoleAPI::run("tp ".$player->username." ".$x." ".$y." ".$z);
}
}

Hope it works. It's not tested.

With it, you swap to players positions as you wanted.

Thanks for your help. Could you maybe explain how that script works. I want to learn how it works and why you used shuffle, where the second player teleport is, etc. Also, how can I make it loop after a random amount of time (run it once, wait a random time 30-120 seconds, and then run it again, over and over until 1 player dies). Thanks again!

I'll add comments to the code
later, and eventually, i'll publish a plugin that does that.
