[1.18] how to get player Statistics variables

[Ladymorepork]

I am trying to make a mod that you can trade time you have played from the time played stats for loot bags or in game currency. This will be for a server.

I am struggling to get the a players Statistics for minecraft:play_time or PLAY_TIME or stat.playOneMinute. I am just so confused and I have been looking for hours of what code to use.

 

i tried to use this :

playertime = ((EntityPlayer)entity).func_147099_x().writeStat(StatList.minutesPlayedStat);

func_147099_x(). is a deprecated API I think. 

I also tried importing and using the net.minecraft.entity.player.ServerPlayerEntity class getStats() but that results in an error saying that it cant find it.

 

i know i would also need a way to update the player's time played stats but just a command might work.

Thanks. I am pretty sure I just went on an adventure through the history of code for players sats today.......    

I also just realized I was coding in for 1.12 instead of my set up for 1.18.2 , its been one of those days.
