MUTE COMMAND

Hi! is there any way to make a mute plugin? (i'm a noob developer)

Thanks if you contribuite!

 

Cancelling the PlayerChatEvent will hinder the chat message from being shown.

 

But could you explain me how i can make like a list of players that are muted? like if i do /mute player1 that player1 even if disconect's and reconnect he will be mutted until i do /unmute player1

 

You can put the player into an array.

Spoiler: Code, only look if you're sure you have no clue how it works

PHP:

// In the class
private $mutedPlayers = [];
// In the mute command
$this->mutedPlayers[] = $playerName;
// In the unmute command
unset($this->mutedPlayers[$playerName]);
// In the PlayerChatEvent handler
$playerName = $event->getPlayer()->getName();
if (in_array($playerName, $this->mutedPlayers)) {
  $event->setCancelled(true);
}


In order to keep it persistent across server reboots, you will need to save the player data somewhere.

Spoiler: Code, only look if you're sure you have no clue how it works

PHP:

// in onEnable
if ($this->getConfig()->get("mutedPlayers")) {
  $this->mutedPlayers = $this->getConfig()->get("mutedPlayers");
}
// in onDisable
$this->getConfig()->set("mutedPlayers", array_values($this->mutedPlayers));
$this->getConfig()->save();
// array_values because using unset messes up the keys
