Help with scheduleSyncDelayedTask

What errors are you getting?

 

All in your code is good, but, on line with code Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncDelayedTask(this, new Runnable() {, there can't be this, there must be instance of class in your project which extends Java Plugin. So, in your class which extends JavaPlugin, add this:

Code (Text):

public static Plugin instance = null;

And in your onEnable() instance = this;, in onDisable() instance = null;, and now replace this by YourClass.instance. You won't now get any error.

I hope, that was helpful !

 

Also, side-note: scheduleSyncDelayedTask() is deprecated in the later versions of spigot, you can use the method runTaskLater() or runTaskLaterAsynchronously() from the same getScheduler() method.

 

Use this:

Spoiler: Main class

Code (Text):

private static /* Your Main class */ main;



public void onEnable(){
main = this;
}

public static Main getMain(){
return main;
}

Spoiler: genbucketCobblestone Class

Code (Text):

package me.splurgies.genbuckets.events;
import org.bukkit.Bukkit;
import org.bukkit.Location;
import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.block.Block;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerBucketEmptyEvent;
public class genbucketCobblestone implements Listener {
    @EventHandler
    public void onGenbucketPlace(PlayerBucketEmptyEvent e) {
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        Block b = e.getBlockClicked().getRelative(e.getBlockFace());
        Location loc = b.getLocation();
        if (p.getInventory().getItemInHand().getType().equals(Material.LAVA_BUCKET)) {
            e.setCancelled(true);
            b.setType(Material.COBBLESTONE);
            loc.subtract(0,1,0);
            while (loc.getBlock().getType().equals(Material.AIR) && loc.getY() > 0) {
                Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncDelayedTask(Main.getMain(), new Runnable() {
                    public void run() {
                        loc.getBlock().setType(Material.COBBLESTONE);
                        loc.subtract(0,1,0);
                    }
                }, 600L);
            }
        }
    }
}

Good luck!

 

Probably due to the infinite while loop

 

I don't think the while is infinite. He decreases the y and changes the block type

 

Did you call Thread.sleep or Thread.join anywhere?

 

This server stopped from by tasks
Why do not you prevent lava

 

It cannot find the .class file for org.fusesource.jansi.internal.Kernel32

 

you shouldn't use static as an access modifier, let alone have a public mutable field. Instead, use the constructor to pass the Plugin instance to another class.

@x7aSv same goes for you.

The Location is never modified fast enough, the server would freeze for 3 seconds per Y level. That is, if the timer would even run. It runs on the same thread as the while loop, so it wouldn't even get scheduled.

Now, this doesn't mean OP should go to asynchronous tasks. Aside that it's completely overkill and not even a guaranteed fix (since Location isn't thread safe), there are much better solutions, like simply using a repeating task (runTaskTimer).

And the jansi error is not related to this all, let alone important.

 

like I said, use a repeating task rather than a while loop
