@page usage-of-all-events Usage of all Events
This page covers every event that FourKit provides, with descriptions of what they do and code examples showing how to use them. Every event handler method must be public, return void, take a single event parameter, and be annotated with [EventHandler] inside a class that implements \ref Minecraft.Server.FourKit.Event.Listener "Listener".
Events that implement \ref Minecraft.Server.FourKit.Event.Cancellable "Cancellable" can be cancelled by calling setCancelled(true). A cancelled event will not execute its default server action (such as preventing chatting), but will still be passed to other plugins (unless IgnoreCancelled is set to true for a certain event handler)
Theres no guarantee this will be fully up to date as new events get added. Be sure to check the actual API documentation. Also some of these functions may not work as intended, as we are still in the process of rewriting everything. If something doesnt work, let us know on github.
