Hello,

I am wanting to do something when the server sends a message to the users screen.

 

For example,

If I was to type /eat and did not have the correct permissions, the server would send a message to the users screen saying "Insufficient Permissions".

 

I want to do something when that message/text is shown.

 

I have looked at using the ServerChatEvent, however from what I have tried, it only seems to work when a player types the message.

 

Can anyone point me in the correct direction? Thank you

I did look at that, although when I was checking if the message was equal to my string, it didnt seem to do anything. Might have overlooked something

Show what you tried.

 

Something similar to this, where cMessage is my message i am checking for.

@SubscribeEvent
public void onChatMessage(ClientChatReceivedEvent event) {
	System.out.println("ChatListener checked");
	if(event.message.equals(cMessage)) {
		System.out.println("Message correct");
	}
}

To elaborate, I believe you need to use event.message.getFormattedText() to get the actual string of the text itself.

event.message is an IChatCompoent. I assume you are comparing it to a String, that will not work.

 

That'll make sense as to why it wasn't working. Thanks

Alright awesome thank you, will give it a go tomorrow and hopefully all will go to plan. Cheers
