It seems that you will get the models and some config files for plugins such as MythicMobs to make them work

#

They also say the files work with ItemsAdder and Oraxen

boreal escarp
#

A data pack is something like a vanilla "plugin" that can add/change stuff, even things that normal plugins can't

sullen sorrel
#

Also what are those stuff?

long summit
#

Custom biomes is one of them

sullen sorrel
#

๐Ÿ‘€

#

Custom biomes in spigot api would be cool

long summit
#

It can't be in the API

#

It's only part of data packs

#

Plugins would include a data pack that would add the biomes

sullen sorrel
#

With patches and stuff to recreate datapack functions

#

Or is that just a bunch of work for something that basically already exists

long summit
#

Probably more complicated to make than it's worth
It's just much easier to allow plugins to provide their data pack

sullen sorrel
#

Ah

#

OK makes sense ๐Ÿฅฒ

kind sorrel
#

paper is working on API to allow more stuff in that direction

boreal escarp
#

But why can't there be an api for biomes? If data packs can create new biomes it means that the game has a api for that, right?

kind sorrel
#

datapacks are loaded on startup, and basically provide their configuration before plugins are really loaded

#

afterwards, it's not as easy/sane to modify registries

boreal escarp
#

Fair, I was thinking ab that but I wasn't sure. Looking forward for the datapacks api for plugins then steve_peek

# sullen sorrel I mean there's also /reload (minecraft) so modifying registries shouldnt be tooo...

I think it was discussed as well, regarding this entire registry modification thing in spigot, and one of the issues is plugins referencing plugin-provided-registry-entries, what happens if a plugin which sinked a biome instance to the registry and suddenly that plugin unloads and another plugin depends on that biome instance, lots of those issues, although there should be some holder sorta api/layer to prevent chaos but still, a lot of issues can happen if you openly would just allow registry modifications in and out sadly Sadge

it has been GRASS_BLOCK for about

i believe they just changed something regarding GRASS

hi

blazing oar
#

I wonder if developing plugins and selling them is a profitable area (public plugins - freemium)

boreal escarp
#

probably if you spend a lot of time, it is

sullen sorrel
#

if you're doing it in your free time, there really aren't any expenses

atomic lichen
#

It's hard to consider it a job

sullen sorrel
#

especially with freemium, you realistically won't be able to make any living off of it or anything (ex citizens - prob one of the largest freemium plugins - has 922 downloads in its latest version, which would probably be only $1000 in sales total)

#

yeah

atomic lichen
#

I mean, it is a profitable area for other expenses

sullen sorrel
#

wdym?

atomic lichen
#

imo, it will always be a secondary job

sturdy bobcat
#

PERSONALLY i charge $500 per download

atomic lichen
#

you can't live from that profit what plugin development brings u

sturdy bobcat
atomic lichen
sturdy bobcat
#

in 99% of cases yes

rare exceptions for like hypixel devs i believe but

#

spigot devs surely aren't getting paid more than a weeks worth of food

boreal escarp
#

hypixel devs have real jobs wdym?

sullen sorrel
#

regular plugin development, you might be able to get a job (although who knows how stable it'll be)
but he wondered about public freemium plugins, so not like an official full-time job

then the artist is only 61k

I wonder from where they started

pseudo sigil
#

Hypixel? From where everyone did

The ground up

atomic lichen

from scratch

#

and look at them now

pseudo sigil
#

Mine plex and Hypixel were the ogs

#

Mine plex died

atomic lichen
#

which is sad

sturdy bobcat
#

when a minecraft server has enough money to start making their own hypothetical game, they can afford to pay their devs regular salaries

#

did i heard something about the yacky bedrock?

boreal escarp
pseudo sigil
#

Yeah true

#

It's unfortunate the java branch wasn't making enough money for upkeep anymoee

sturdy bobcat
#

since hypixel basically took all minigame server playerbase, mineplex died and hive moved to bedrock because it was just costing too much to run java

#

i doubt hypixel are doing very amazing financially anymore though

atomic lichen
#

Are they doin fine on bedrock?

they're featured on bedrock iirc

#

yesish, the issue is that #1191515716608868402 is open for anyone, so anyone can take the job before me.

frank pasture
#

From personal experience, a SaaS product in the MC space is very much profitable when done right. Servers make a lot of revenue, but from what I hear speaking to folks, the profit margins are very tight

A lot of the revenue (aside from bills) is spent on marketing/ads with things like slots

Hahah, Iโ€™d recommend a todo list and pen and paper, thatโ€™s whatโ€™s worked for me

#

I jot down what I need on pen and paper, then organise it on a todo list

blazing oar

that's also what I started doing

#

like for one of the projects I am working on for the mc server I work for. I have every single system in a todo list and just checking everything once done

#

quite satisfying seeing it being done

frank pasture
#

I found that once I started get more organised, it was easier for me to stay motivated and start checking tasks off.

And yup, ditto - the thought of ticking things off was so compelling

#

It makes you stay driven

blazing oar
#

yeah, sadly not enough for me yet, I am too lazy lmao

#

but I will also try a strategy called "the 5 second rule"

#

you countdown from 5 to 1 and you just do whatever ya need to do

#

apparently doing this, stops your brain from doing your habits (aka being lazy) and "wakes" you up

#

I will also try another strategy that consists in thinking about everything you need to do, as something you just do, and not something you NEED to do. Basically just go with the flow.

tacit nova

It's always a whole lot of talk and a whole lot of nothing

Also, a very big message I got from a podcast I saw is "Confidence isn't assuredness, it's the willingness to try"

#

with that mindset, yes.

#

But I actually really want to stop being lazy.

#

It's quite affecting my life already

frank pasture
# blazing oar you countdown from 5 to 1 and you just do whatever ya need to do

Iโ€™ve not heard of this, Iโ€™ll definitely need to take a closer look.

I struggled with productivity for ages, and still do have days of struggling (itโ€™s normal). Whatโ€™s worked for me is..

  1. Jot down on paper every task needed, but broken down small enough - e.g. if youโ€™ve got to add the functionality for reports, you might create 1 task for creating a report, another for editing, another for deleting etc.

  2. (Optional) Once written down, you can add it to a todo list app organised.

  3. Set yourself a few tasks per day, that way you know what to do. If you manage to finish it early, you can either work on another, or finish your day.

#

Something Iโ€™ve just recently learnt about (through work), is to only work on tasks that relate to a deadline. E.g if youโ€™ve got to add a reporting system, youโ€™d hold off tasks that are to do with other new functionality, or even adding features

Consistency is the key.

it's not about just trying, it's about if you keep trying or not

My goals are:
Stop watching YouTube if the stuff you're watching isn't even interesting

Also stop writing here when I'm supposed to be asleep almost 2 hours ago

It is hard @tacit nova admittedly, Iโ€™ve had days even recently where I struggle. Itโ€™s part of the normal cycle, I have discord notifications off on my phone. Sometimes Iโ€™ll close discord on laptop.

I donโ€™t have Twitter on my phone. I try to limit YouTube (can be hard sometimes), Iโ€™ll put do not disturb on my phone and such

#

I guess I should write a blog post about whatโ€™s personally helped me

tacit nova
#

It's really not that and I got a lot of similar advice

blazing oar
#

Ngl would love to read it, I have read like all (?) your blog posts xD

#

I am totally not a fanboy

frank pasture

Hahaha really, I havenโ€™t done a post in agesss :( I need to get back into it

tacit nova

My issue isn't that YouTube or Discord or whatever is distracting or more interesting. It's just that it's so much easier and for me it's really hard to overcome that initial threshold.

blazing oar
#

am I the only one that never did a blog post?

tacit nova

Nop

Once you get started with something, and donโ€™t give in to the habit, youโ€™ll end up being engrossed with work

It's like your car. I'm in first gear, work is 3rd and YT is neutral

blazing oar
# tacit nova Yuuup

try the 5 to 1 countdown rule, when you see you are going in a different path, just countdown from 5 to 1 and do what you need to do. Don't even think about it.

#

Another option you have is adapting the pomodoro strategy

#

there are some apps that help with that

#

personally didn't work for me

tacit nova
#

Pomodoro the timer thinfy

blazing oar
#

but could work for you, works very well for a friend of mine

frank pasture
#

What Iโ€™d recommend to try, when youโ€™re going to work on a project, say โ€œIโ€™m gonna work on this for 15 minutesโ€, chances are by 15 minutes you be so engrossed that you donโ€™t want to watch YouTube

blazing oar
tacit nova

Yea maybe

#

Just that helps to stay on it

I'll see

For instance, I could do the 5 to 1 strat rn and work on a plugin rn, but I choose not to, and to give myself a mini reward at the end of the day

which in this case, is a round or two of league

My usual lifecycle at the start of the day, is that I say Iโ€™m going to work on x task, then I procrastinate because itโ€™s complex, end up flicking on YouTube, then a minute later realise itโ€™s no good and start work.

Within like 5 minutes Iโ€™m typically engrossed and enjoying what Iโ€™m working on. Then, the next task is usually easier as youโ€™re already focused

But when I go get bretter from the hardware store I usually get like planks

I personally like to chill (well, actually, just completely ragequit cause league sucks) and play some league

tacit nova

I actually don't game that much anymore

Usually only with friends

blazing oar

league is a very good game in that sense, you are addicted to the game, but you ragequit SOOOO fast that you play 1-2 rounds and then you go back to work

blazing oar

#

I wish I could get the gaming thrill back

blazing oar
#

I mean, I have it and don't at the same time

#

gaming isn't the same as it was years ago

but for me, it's still that time of the day where I can just, ignore the rest.

#

And that's good enough for me

It's really nice to have something to occupy your mind when not working instead of just letting content rot your last 23 brain cells

I mean, in theory you could easily automate it firstly via modals/forms, would make the "how to" a lot more intuitive since I have seen several people trying to post a request and only being able to properly do it at the 5th try lol. You could easily make a system that contacts requesters after X time to check if they are still searching for it, if not, mark it as completed (or mark it as completed manually yourself, the requester). Just some random ideas I had.
