Posted January 2, 201411 yr My first topic on here, don't hate me. Some test code I'm working with: @Override public boolean onLeftClickEntity(ItemStack itemstack, EntityPlayer player, Entity ent) { if (!ent.worldObj.isRemote) { System.out.println("|" + ent.getEntityName() + "|"); if (ent.getEntityName() == "Pig") { System.out.println("TRIGGER"); } System.out.println("|" + ent.getEntityName() + "|"); } return false; } And here's what the console looks like when I hit a pig. |Pig| |Pig| Going through the If statement, it outputs as false, even though it's seemingly supposed to be true. Is there anything I'm missing? if (user.hasKnowledgeOfJava) { if (user.question.hasCode) { return interpetHelpfulResponse(user.getQuestion()); } else { return "Could you post your code please?"; } } else { return "Learn some freaking Java!"; }
January 2, 201411 yr ent.getEntityName().equals("Pig") String comparison in Java does not work like integer comparison. Strings are compared as other complex objects, just like new ItemStack() doesn't equal new ItemStack(), so too will "Pig" not equal "Pig" Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
January 2, 201411 yr Author Dang it, I forgot about that. Thank you! if (user.hasKnowledgeOfJava) { if (user.question.hasCode) { return interpetHelpfulResponse(user.getQuestion()); } else { return "Could you post your code please?"; } } else { return "Learn some freaking Java!"; }
