[1.12.2] on player kill method

[MarkNutt0]

Is there a way to trigger a method upon a player (yourself) killing another player? I understand there is the LivingDeathEvent method that triggers upon an entity being killed however I dont see a way to know if the player was the cause of death.

Here's my code:

@SubscribeEvent
    public void kill(LivingDeathEvent event) {
        if (event.getEntity() instanceof EntityPlayer) {
            if (event.getEntity().getKiller().getName() == mc.player.getName()) {
                // do something
            }
        }
    }

the getKiller() isnt a function and is just throwing an error,

thanks

You can get the Entity that caused the death by using livingDeathEventObject.getSource().getTrueSource(), and go from there.
