Class Area

java.lang.Object
net.risingworld.api.objects.Area

public final class Area extends Object
An Area describes an area in the game world. It has a start and end position.

Note: If you create a new area and you don't need it anymore, call destroy() so the native resources will be released. Only do that to areas you've created using the new keyword. Do not destroy areas returned by the server (unless you really want to get rid of them).

    • getAllPlayerPermissions

      public Map<Integer,String> getAllPlayerPermissions()

      6 int playerDbID = entry.getKey();
      7 String permission = entry.getValue();
      8
      9 //If player is online, we could use Server.getPlayerByDbID() to
      10 //get the player object. But we only want his name, so we use
      11 //this method instead (which also works for offline players)
      12 String playerName = Server.getLastKnownPlayerName(playerDbID);
