All Implemented Interfaces:

Cancellable

@NullMarked
public class PrePlayerAttackEntityEvent
extends PlayerEvent
implements Cancellable

Called when the player tries to attack an entity.

This occurs before any of the damage logic, so cancelling this event will prevent any sort of sounds from being played when attacking.

This event will fire as cancelled for certain entities, with willAttack() being false to indicate that this entity will not actually be attacked.

Note: there may be other factors (invulnerability, etc.) that will prevent this entity from being attacked that this event will not cover
