Return block ID by name

PHP:

if($event->getBlock()->getID() == Item::SIGN_POST || $event->getBlock()->getID() == Block::SIGN_POST || $event->getBlock()->getID() == Block::WALL_SIGN){
$sign = $event->getPlayer()->getLevel()->getTile($event->getBlock());
if($sign instanceof Sign){
//blah..
}
}


Can I do this?
and is Item::SIGN_POST a must?

 

Nope. Checking Item::SIGN_POST will make it wrong. Item::SIGN_POST may be a registered ID in Block Class, causing your IF statement dont work the way you wanted

 

PHP:

$block = $event->getBlock()
if(in_array($block->getId(), [Block::SIGN_POST, Block::WALL_SIGN])){
$sign = $event->getPlayer()->getLevel()->getTile($block);
if($sign instanceof Sign){
//blah..
}
}


Actually, you can do this too

 

This is an array?

 

IDs is not an array, but the way @SuperMaXAleX used is to declare 2 IDs (SIGN_POST and WALL_SIGN) together as an array. However, his way is not recommended.

Yep. But, using IF statement directly is better than using in_array() in this case.

 

I'm using it every times x) This is working fine for me

 

uh
