[SOLVED] Getting a dimension ID from a World object [1.16.2]

I simply need to know one thing. How does one get the dimension ID from a World object/instance.

 

(Yes, I looked for this on google/the forums, but I could only find what seemed to be outdated methods of doing so)

    Hmm, I thought that was clear. I need a way to compare world objects, to check if the two world objects being referenced are the same world. I tried to compare them directly, but it seems that they diverge at some point.  I thought comparing their dimension IDs would allow for more sound comparison. I'm doing this to create a World Tick Scheduler of sorts. The WorldTickEvent gives a world, but I'm assuming it has the potential to be any of the loaded dimensions, so I need to make sure it is the world that my timed process is executing in.

     

    EDIT: When I say world object, I'm referring to an instance of the ServerWorld class.

    Also, I'm from Spigot, so sorry if I'm confusing the functionality differences between Spigot and MCForge.

    I'm not sure what you're saying in that second part. Is it maybe the case that there is only one centralized ServerWorld object, and that the WorldTickEvent is NOT individually called by each dimension? I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding what the ServerWorld object is.

    Oh okay, then I'm still wondering how it is that I determine what dimension the in question ServerWorld object is for. By that I don't mean the dimension type, but the exact identifier specific to just one dimension, considering there can be multiple instance of the same dimension type in some cases.

    Ah, thank you much. This will be helpful.

     

    EDIT: Is there a way to mark this thread as solved?

    If you want to, you can put "solved" in the thread title, but otherwise no, because this is a forum, not Stack Overflow.

    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.

    I've been on a few forums where they've had tags for titles, including "solved".
