      You can say that there are PlayerGameModeChangeEvent... Yes, but if player joined just now, I can't get their previous game mode, but the server knows it and the game/client too (in F3+F4). I would like if method to get it would be exposed to API.

      For what I'm need it: In join event, we put player in "waiting" room and changing their game mode to adventure, then after some time player will be teleported back to the world and their game mode will be restored. The problem is just inconvenience: if player press F3+F4 once, their game mode will be changed to adventure — not "real" game mode that they was used before quit. With getting previous mode method, we can set it first and then restore player game mode, so this problem will be solved.

      Thanks!

          Previous game mode isn't stored after logout though?

          getPreviousGameMode(), save it to variable, then (before restore)

          1. setGameMode(previous)
          2. setGameMode(real)

          So F3+F4 will again suggest previous mode, not adventure.

          I don't quite understand how having only a getter helps you?
