PlayerUIElementClickEvent issue

james1bow · May 1st 2023

ive been trying to get this method to work for a few days now. Ive went as far breaking it down to see if i could find an issue on my end. the event is being triggered but nothing after. Ive also made sure to register a listener

[Java] Trigger Java event: net.risingworld.api.events.player.ui.PlayerUIElementClickEvent@29b39dca

Java

    @EventMethod
    public void elementClickTest(PlayerUIElementClickEvent evt){
        player = evt.getPlayer();
        String playername = player.getName();
        System.out.println(playername);
        UIElement elementclicked = evt.getUIElement();
        int id = elementclicked.getID();
        System.out.println(id);
        System.out.println("processing click");
    }

if this is something on my end i apologize!

Java

   @EventMethod
    public void elementClickTest(PlayerUIElementClickEvent evt){
        Player player = evt.getPlayer();
        String playername = player.getName();
        System.out.println(playername);
        int id = evt.getUIElement().getID();   // the id is the elementclicked id so you can just use if (elementclickedID == id){ then do this}  
        System.out.println(id);
        System.out.println("processing click");
    }

so to get the element id do this

UIElement thiselement = new UIElement();

elementclickedID = thiselement.getID;

You can save that in a Attribute so you can fetch it under the clickEvent like this

player.setAttribute("elementclickedID" elementclickedID);

then to get it you do player.getAttribute("elementclickedID");

so

elementclicked = player.getAttribute("elementclickedID");

if (evt.getUIElement().getID() == elementclicked){ player.sendtextmessage("then this thiselement was clicked"}

I've tried it that way and got the same result.

you should setup all your UIelements first under say onplayerconnect like this

Java

    @EventMethod
  public void onPlayerConnect(PlayerConnectEvent event)  {
   Player player = event.getPlayer();

          // Settings MainMenu
          UIElement SettingsPortalPanel = new UIElement();
          SettingsPortalPanel.setSize(1000, 400, false);
          SettingsPortalPanel.setPosition(25, 25, true);
          SettingsPortalPanel.setBorder(10);
          SettingsPortalPanel.setBorderColor(999);
          SettingsPortalPanel.setBackgroundColor(12222);
          SettingsPortalPanel.setVisible(false);
          player.setAttribute("SettingsPortalPanelID", SettingsPortalPanel.getID());
          player.setAttribute("SettingsPortalPanel", SettingsPortalPanel);
         
          
          // EXIT Button
          UILabel exitSettingsPortalbutton = new UILabel();
          exitSettingsPortalbutton.setClickable(true);
          exitSettingsPortalbutton.isClickable();
          exitSettingsPortalbutton.setFontColor(50,999,999,50);
          exitSettingsPortalbutton.setRichTextEnabled(true);
          exitSettingsPortalbutton.setFontSize(20);
          exitSettingsPortalbutton.setText(" X ");
          exitSettingsPortalbutton.setBorder(2);
          exitSettingsPortalbutton.setBorderColor(999);
          exitSettingsPortalbutton.setPosition(950, 5, false);
          SettingsPortalPanel.addChild(exitSettingsPortalbutton);
          player.setAttribute("exitSettingsPortalbuttonID", exitSettingsPortalbutton.getID());
          player.setAttribute("exitSettingsPortalbutton", exitSettingsPortalbutton);
          
          
          player.addUIElement(SettingsPortalPanel);



}




 @EventMethod
    public void onPlayerCommandEvent(PlayerCommandEvent evt) {
        String[] cmd = evt.getCommand().split(" ");
        Player player = evt.getPlayer();
 
  
        
         if (cmd[0].equalsIgnoreCase("/Portals")) {
          // let the player use the mouse
          player.setMouseCursorVisible(true);
          
          // Settings MainMenu         
          UIElement SettingsPortalPanel = (UIElement) player.getAttribute("SettingsPortalPanel");
          SettingsPortalPanel.setVisible(true);
          
           
         }
        
   
        
    }
    
    


  @EventMethod
  public void onPlayerUIEClick(PlayerUIElementClickEvent evt) throws SQLException {
  Player player = evt.getPlayer();
  
  
  
       
      int eventID = evt.getUIElement().getID();
      UIElement SettingsPortalPanel = (UIElement) player.getAttribute("SettingsPortalPanel");
      int exitSettingsPortalbuttonID = (int) player.getAttribute("exitSettingsPortalbuttonID");

   if (eventID == exitSettingsPortalbuttonID){
      player.setMouseCursorVisible(false);
      SettingsPortalPanel.setVisible(false);
   }

      
      
  }

Java

on the player connect event 
    PortalGui gui = new PortalGui(this);
    gui.initGui(player);   



 public UIElement initGui(Player player){
        //Main Panel
        UIElement panel = new UIElement();
        panel.setPosition(50, 50, true);  
        panel.setPivot(Pivot.MiddleCenter);
        panel.setSize(500, 300, false);
        panel.setBackgroundColor(0, 0, 0, 1); 
        panel.setVisible(false);
        panel.setClickable(true);
        player.addUIElement(panel);
        

        //Close Button
        UILabel close = new UILabel("<color=red>X</color>");
        close.setPosition(99, 1, true);
        close.setPivot(Pivot.UpperRight);
        close.setFontSize(10);
        close.setClickable(true);
        close.setBorder(3);
        close.setBorderColor(999);
        panel.addChild(close);
        
        
        player.setAttribute("close_button", close.getID());
        player.setAttribute("portalGui", panel);
        
        
    return panel;}

original code for the click event.

@EventMethod
    public void elementClick(PlayerUIElementClickEvent evt){
        player = evt.getPlayer();
        UIElement element = evt.getUIElement();
        UIElement main = (UIElement)player.getAttribute("portalGui");
        int close = (int)player.getAttribute("close_button");
        int elementid = (int)element.getID();
        //int closebutton = (int)close.getID();
        if(elementid == close){
            player.setMouseCursorVisible(true);
            player.showStatusMessage("element clicked", 5);
            main.setVisible(false);
            
        }
    }

my panel is displaying correctly

the code i used just to test the event method should get called on any uielementclickevent. all my test code (below) should do is print the player name and element id anytime my panel is clicked.

Java

@EventMethod
    public void elementClickTest(PlayerUIElementClickEvent evt){
        
        player = evt.getPlayer();
        String playername = player.getName();
        System.out.println(playername);
        int elementclicked = evt.getUIElement().getID();
        System.out.println(elementclicked);
        System.out.println("processing click");
