What code should i use to give a player an item as they join

Hi im trying to create a sort of starter kit plugin. People that have never joined before will get armour and tools and old players will get an iron ingot as they join.
I am using this code for the old players but it doesnt seem to work. Any suggestions?

PHP:

public function playerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent $pje){
    $player = $pje->getPlayer();
    if($player->hasPlayedBefore()) {
        $player->getInventory()->addItem(265);
          
        }

You got addItem wrong. It should be:

PHP:

$player->getInventory()->addItem(new Item($id, $damage, $amount);

Remember to follow for more help!

Thanks I followed.

Is this correct?

PHP:

public function playerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent $pje){
    $player = $pje->getPlayer();
    if($player->hasPlayedBefore()) {
        $player->getInventory()->addItem(newItem(265, 0, 1));

You forgot a space between "new" and "Item".

I would make it something like

PHP:

public function onPlayerJoinEvent(PlayerJoinEvent $event){
    if($player haspermission("example.permission"){
        $items = array("1:0", "2:0", "3:0")
        $player->getInventory()->addItem(new Item(array_rand($items, 1));
    return true;
    }else{
        $event->setCancelled();
    return false;
    }
}


In the $item array you could set the items the players could get. I would also make a plugin.yml file to be something like this:

Code:

name: name
api: api
version: version
main: main
permissions:
  example.permission:
    default: op
    description: "Allows players to receive a random item when they join"

Do you even know PHP and the PocketMine API? Cancelling the event will cause the player to not join.

Thabks, it seems to be working. But what class do i use? Ive been using
use pocketmine\item\IronIngot;
But that doesnt work.

Just use pocketmine\item\Item.

I didn't know it would make the player not join...

Thank you both its working flawlessly now.

You should submit the plugin, it sounds like something cool to have on servers

Mine will work a bit different than spawnwithitems. I will consider submitting it if everything turns out well

Yeah, true

Mine gives new players a certain item/items when they spawn. And old players a certain item/items when they spawn. I might implement some other features

No. For the last time, you should not use new Item() directly. Use Item::get() instead.
