seems like you can stream the song but cant get it as a file

so you probably need to get it through the stream

altho i just checked it fast and not really in detail, it could be somewhere

@vivid flower

Give this a shot

[vivid flower]

the minecraft plugin i want to modify wants the mp3 files in plugins/CustomDiscs/musicdata/, it cant handle links

let me check it out

[merry knoll]

thats for you to do, you take it from there then put wherever you want

or just load directly if the plugin has the methods exposed

[vivid flower]

load directly?

[merry knoll]

gotta check the plugin

[vivid flower]

its able to hotload so to speak, no restarting needed for it to detect a mp3 file and use it

but idk if thats what you meant

[merry knoll]

yes, but the method it uses for that might be exposed

so you could technically just download through the api and load using their method (or your own)

[vivid flower]

never heard of exposed methods before

[merry knoll]

something you can access externally

most programs will hide implementation details since if you dont know what you are doing you can break stuff

and "expose" methods as an API so you can interact and use them

[vivid flower]

so when checking the plugin for exposed methods, what do i look for?

[merry knoll]

usually they are documented in the github or w.e. you find them

if not you gotta dig in and learn how it works sadly

[vivid flower]

yeah no

[merry knoll]

got a link for that plugin?

lemme take a look

[vivid flower]

https://github.com/Navoei/CustomDiscs

its a third party fork of a fabric mod, ported to paper plugin

[dense drift]

Same question lol

[merry knoll]

you are semi lucky public void playLocationalAudio(VoicechatServerApi api, Path soundFilePath, Player bukkitPlayer, Block block) {

this is open

under PlayerManager

not sure what voicechatserver api is though

[vivid flower]

so

theres this mod / plugin called simple voice chat

[broken elbow]

I believe piggy added that at some point. there is some lore behind it, I just can't remember (also wasn't here, just was told)

[merry knoll]

if i were you, i would just add this plugin as dependency

[vivid flower]

users with the mod can talk to eachother in groups or proximity if the server has the plugin

[merry knoll]

then use its methods

[vivid flower]

this thing is an addon to that

as a dependency to what?

[merry knoll]

honestly you dont need anything else than that class

[broken elbow]

ah. @dense drift, @brittle thunder #development message

the answer is a long time

almost a year

[merry knoll]

https://github.com/Navoei/CustomDiscs/blob/main/src/main/java/me/Navoei/customdiscsplugin/PlayerManager.java

[vivid flower]

im there rn

[merry knoll]

i think this class has all the logic for parsing the file if i am not wrong

[vivid flower]

the command however, it requires you to input the filename of the file in the folder

which is the CreateCommand java file

[merry knoll]

thats the easiest part

[dense drift]

Damn

[vivid flower]

no idea how to do that

[merry knoll]

if you check the method there

it takes a path

in playerManager

that path is the file path for mp3 file

rest of the logic on how the command works is irrelevant

[vivid flower]

from which line is this

[merry knoll]

you just gotta get the api from the other voice plugin

[vivid flower]

ah i was in the other file

[merry knoll]

get the path

give it a player and a block

and it should just work

and for soundcloud part

you will have to download it as mp3 save it somewhere

then call this method with its path

[vivid flower]

whats the other part for do you mean, the "give it a player and a block" thing

[vivid flower]

sorry im being slow

[merry knoll]

method takes api, filePath, player and block

[vivid flower]

ahh

[merry knoll]

im guessing block is source of the sound

player is who you are playing to

path is the file you are playing

and api is there to pass its reference (aka address)

you should find where the reference to this class is stored though

it creates a thread

every time its initialized so creating a new instance

everytime you play is a bad idea

okay you are hella lucky

thats also exposed

so no need to edit this plugin what so ever

[vivid flower]

huh

[merry knoll]

you can make your own and hook up to it no issues

[vivid flower]

that sounds highly unusual

ok but wait

[merry knoll]

you are just gonna do this, simplified version

[vivid flower]

the command wont take links, only the file name

[merry knoll]

you are not gonna use its command

at all

[vivid flower]

oh?

[merry knoll]

you will make your own obviously

[vivid flower]

oh

[merry knoll]

but you dont need to make a new sound player thing (or understand how this one works)

[vivid flower]

can you tell i havent made plugins before

[merry knoll]

what you need to do is this:

take link from player
download mp3 from that link somehow(probably a lib for it)
save the mp3 somewhere
call PlayerManager.instance().playLocationalAudio(VoicechatServerApi api, Path soundFilePath, Player bukkitPlayer, Block block)

and it should just play

[vivid flower]

that sounds like something i could do

if only i knew how to set up a plugin

[merry knoll]

public void stopLocationalAudio(Location blockLocation)

this to stop the sound

PlayerManager.instance().stopLocationalAudio(Location blockLocation)

so like this basically

[vivid flower]

how do I get started with a plugin? like, whats the structure?

[merry knoll]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/tips-on-creating-your-very-first-plugin/

downloading the file from soundcloud is gonna be your main issue

[vivid flower]

found a plugin for idea that helps with the boilerplate code

[magic whale]

.

[vivid flower]

ok i got the template

how will it hook into the other plugin though? they're 2 separate jar files, 2 separate projects, how would that work

[merry knoll]

add it as dependency

in your ide

then add it to your plugin.yml as dependency

so it loads first

[vivid flower]

im not sure how to do that

working on it

so if i want to depend the original plugin (CustomDiscs) what do I put as the thing to depend?

depend:
  - CustomDiscs

like so?

[merry knoll]

yep thats it

[vivid flower]

[merry knoll]

you also want to depend on the other plugin

the one with the api

[vivid flower]

the simple voice chat?

[merry knoll]

yeah

[vivid flower]

gotcha

[merry knoll]

whatever its plugin name is

[vivid flower]

the original plugin also depends on protocollib to work

so i guess ill also depend on it

[merry knoll]

thats not your concern

[vivid flower]

nevermind

[merry knoll]

you are only depending on the voice one

since you have to use it

[vivid flower]

right

[merry knoll]

it takes it as first parameter

[vivid flower]

do i remove the commands line from the original plugin

in the yml

[merry knoll]

nah

just add a new command

not clashing with theirs

[vivid flower]

then i will rename the original one because i want to use that command

[merry knoll]

well

you cant just rename sadly

[vivid flower]

  customdisc:
    description: The custom discs command.
    aliases: cd

[merry knoll]

you would need to change the code too

[vivid flower]

cant just replace customdisc with whduhjwd ?

ah

[merry knoll]

no

[vivid flower]

true shame

okay then

[merry knoll]

make yours dvd or smt

[vivid flower]

genius

okay then

yml file done

i am making good progress for being my first plugin

dont you think?

now then

when the player types the command i want to take the link and download the mp3 to the folder, and then call PlayerManager.instance().playLocationalAudio(VoicechatServerApi api, Path soundFilePath, Player bukkitPlayer, Block block)

[merry knoll]

if you will use this

on a production server

then you probably want to do that on another thread

[vivid flower]

why and how

[merry knoll]

it doesnt really matter if its just your friends

[vivid flower]

its a server with like 20 people

[merry knoll]

reason being, io operations and downloading etc take time

meaning that server has to wait until its done to keep processing stuff

[vivid flower]

but i would like for it to be suitable for more than just whitelisted small servers

[merry knoll]

if you do it on main thread

[vivid flower]

then itll slow everything down

[merry knoll]

it wont slow

it will freeze

until its done

[vivid flower]

not async

right

[merry knoll]

then you have to do it on another thread

[vivid flower]

so do i want to create a new thread on plugin startup?

[merry knoll]

you can use integrated methods for it

runTaskAsyncronously or smt

is the name of it

you get it from Bukkit.getScheduler

[pulsar ferry]

You can access the command map and rename the original command so you can add yours if you really want to

[vivid flower]

nah dvd is okay

thanks though

[merry knoll]

they are semi new, reflection is probably too much

[vivid flower]

im completely new to plugins

[merry knoll]

be careful with this

you cant do anything to the server

if you are on another thread

99% of the bukkit methods are not thread-safe

[vivid flower]

my first project was converting my python discord bot to java, friend was basically doing everything for me for days and just quizzing me, but i took over bit by bit and now i do most of it on my own

but that means im basically just familiar with JDA (java discord api)

no clue how plugins work

[merry knoll]

reflection is a java thing

its not specific to spigot

[vivid flower]

okay

[vivid flower]

so i can download on the non-main thread but not put the file in the folder on that thread?

[merry knoll]

oh file operation is fine

[vivid flower]

oh

[merry knoll]

you cant touch bukkit from that thread

[vivid flower]

ohh

[merry knoll]

(or bukkit files)

[vivid flower]

should be fine right?

[merry knoll]

for what you want to do

it should be fine

just fire a new runnable

with the download and saving logic

[vivid flower]

callSyncMethod?

[merry knoll]

once its done return to main thread and play it

[vivid flower]

i believe

[merry knoll]

runTaskAsync - to use another thread

[vivid flower]

no idea how to return but im sure ill figure it out

oh

oh right

[merry knoll]

runTask to return

[vivid flower]

sync is not async

im so smart sometimes

[merry knoll]

using multiple threads in bukkit is simple ish

just make sure you dont edit anything from that thread while you are on it

use it in self contained sense basically

[vivid flower]

okay

so on startup create a new thread

[merry knoll]

no no no

[vivid flower]

on command issued?

[merry knoll]

use the bukkit method

it already has a thread

[vivid flower]

yes

        // Plugin startup logic

        System.out.println("end my suffering");

        Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskAsynchronously();

wrong place?

[merry knoll]

look into schedulers

[vivid flower]

aha

[merry knoll]

thats not how you use them

[vivid flower]

i have one of those for my bot

[merry knoll]

you cant, this one is a bukkit specific implementation

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/scheduler-programming/

you can use your own threading solution as well

but this is simpler

and 100% capable of what you want to do

[vivid flower]

    public void onEnable() {
        // Plugin startup logic

        System.out.println("end my suffering");

        BukkitScheduler scheduler = Bukkit.getScheduler();

yes?

[merry knoll]

not on enable though

[vivid flower]

how come

oh

dont answer that

[merry knoll]

it runs the code in runnable in another thread

and you want it to happen when a command happens so

[vivid flower]

should i make a separate class file for the command?

[merry knoll]

i would

you dont have to but its way cleaner

[vivid flower]

then I will

[tight junco]

keep everything in the same file, don't have any seperation at all

and you need to make a new line everytime you use .

[merry knoll]

unless you have 5k lines on one class

you are doing it wrong

[tight junco]

a space? nah, new line

[vivid flower]

of course

[merry knoll]

or dont use new line at all

[vivid flower]

i have a confession to make

my python bot was one class file

it was.. fun

[tight junco]

average python user

[merry knoll]

[vivid flower]

yeahhh

[merry knoll]

gimme something to watch, need something on the side monitor while i finish boilerplate code

[vivid flower]

breaking bad

[tight junco]

public
class
MyPlugin
extends
JavaPlugin
{ 
  @Override
  public
  void
  onEnable()
         {
    this.
      getServer().
      getLogger().
      log("kek")
      ;
  }

my brain broke too much to go any further than that

[merry knoll]

public class MyPlugin extends JavaPlugin { @Override public void onEnable() { this.getServer().getLogger().log("kek");}

who needs spacing

[vivid flower]

so im looking at the original plugins command thing

it has a public string getName, getDescription and getSyntax

guessing these are all needed in mine too

[merry knoll]

if you extend CommandExecutor

it will tell you the exact method you need

[vivid flower]

didnt know that existed

nor what it does

[merry knoll]

its how you set up commands in bukkit

[vivid flower]

it wants implements and not extends

import org.bukkit.command.CommandExecutor;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandSender;
import org.jetbrains.annotations.NotNull;

public class Command implements CommandExecutor {


    @Override
    public boolean onCommand(@NotNull CommandSender sender, org.bukkit.command.@NotNull Command command, @NotNull String label, @NotNull String[] args) {
        return false;
    }
}

it just kinda made all of this for me

[tight junco]

yeah thats what you're supposed to do

[merry knoll]

yeah

[vivid flower]

oka

[merry knoll]

could be, its been a while since i did it manually honestly

[tight junco]

yeah it'll manually do all of that

[vivid flower]

i do also want to add a permission and check if the player has the permission before the rest of the command continues

guessing CommandSender sender is the player

[merry knoll]

its as simple as

player.hasPermission(String)

[vivid flower]

and add a permission to the yml

[tight junco]

CommandSender is whatever sent the command

[merry knoll]

nah

ignore the yml for permissions

not needed

[vivid flower]

ok

so if i want the permission to be dvd.command then

player.hasPermission(dvd.command)

[merry knoll]

with ""

[tight junco]

you're gonna want to check if its a player first that CommandSender could be a player, could be console, could be a command block, etc

[vivid flower]

yes

[merry knoll]

since its a string

[vivid flower]

oh right

youre so right

[merry knoll]

this as well

[tight junco]

i always am

[vivid flower]

you always are

[tight junco]

d;spigot Player#hasPermission(String)

[uneven lantern]

org.bukkit.permissions.Permissible#hasPermission

boolean hasPermission(@NotNull String name)```

Description:

Gets the value of the specified permission, if set.

If a permission override is not set on this object, the default value of the permission will be returned.

Returns:

Value of the permission

Parameters:

name - Name of the permission

Page 0 • Requested by: Ori • spigot

[tight junco]

pog

look at me remembering how to use the command

[merry knoll]

[tight junco]

[vivid flower]

oka i back

had to use the oval office

there

public class Command implements CommandExecutor {


    @Override
    public boolean onCommand(@NotNull CommandSender sender, org.bukkit.command.@NotNull Command command, @NotNull String label, @NotNull String[] args) {

        if(sender instanceof Player && sender.hasPermission("dvd.command")) {
            
            //stuff
            
        }

        return false;
    }
}

so far

this will work with luckperms yes?

if i give a player dvd.command thru luckperms then the command will work

so now comes the hard part, soundclouding

"take link from player
download mp3 from that link somehow(probably a lib for it)
save the mp3 somewhere
call PlayerManager.instance().playLocationalAudio(VoicechatServerApi api, Path soundFilePath, Player bukkitPlayer, Block block)"

so first of all i need to have a syntax for the command

./dvd create <url> <lore>

im gonna make it a subcommand instead

fancier

alright so its like 7:45pm

i think im going to continue working on this tomorrow

ty for the assistance @merry knoll much appreciated ❤️

[hoary scarab]

Does this make sense?

private Pattern mcFormattedHex = Pattern.compile("&x([A-Fa-f0-9&]){12}");
public String decolorHex(String s) {
    Matcher matcher = mcFormattedHex.matcher(removeColor(s));
    ConsoleOutput.log("DEBUG >> Decolorized: "+removeColor(s)+(matcher.find() ? " Matcher Found" : "")
    ConsoleOutput.log("DEBUG >> Match: "+matcher.find())
```Output: 
> DEBUG >> Decolorized: &x&1&8&f&2&7&d(10) ..... Matcher Found
> DEBUG >> Match: false

[dense drift]

Matcher#find is something like Iterator#hasNext 🙂

[hoary scarab]

Exactly. So why is it saying true above but false on the next line.

Also without the loggers it's suppose to be while(matcher.find()) {} but the output in the while doesn't run.

[hoary scarab]

Thinking of something else when you said iterator.hasNext() so just read the bottom of the last message.

[lyric gyro]

Matcher#find mutates the matcher and tries to find the "next" match in the input string (or the first one if no finding has been attempted)

it doesn't return if there is a match, it returns if there is a subsequent match to continue processing the matcher and it "stands" the matcher wherever the potential match is at, if there is no next match, it'll return false

[hoary scarab]

I'll show my code when I get on PC. I do basically the same thing to color the string with hex. Just decoloring it doesn't want to work.

[lyric gyro]

Pattern pattern = compile("hi");
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher("hi hi hi");
matcher.find(); // true "*hi* hi hi"
matcher.find(); // true "hi *hi* hi"
matcher.find(); // true "hi hi *hi*"
matcher.find(); // false "hi hi hi" no matches left

By calling find in the logging you're mutating the matcher's Internal state

[robust flower]

is there any way of changing the outline color of an entity without team packets (or real teams for that regard)?

[hoary scarab]

Yes got that. Read 2 (6 from this message) messages above lol

Not on PC so can't get the whole method.

[dense drift]

while matcher.find() or multiple calls of matcher.find() is the same thing

[gusty crest]

Hey, is it possible to make playtime levels with DeluxeMenus?

if i use javascript type and expression %statistic_hours_played% >=

[dense drift]

Wrong channel

[hoary scarab]

🤦 when I asked yesterday, I wasn't using removeColor(s) in the matcher. And when I did test it (the code from my original message), I forgot to test it without the output.
Got it to work now.

[charred ravine]

I'm having trouble with how I can make chances, like for example how can I make a chance system where every kill it has to always drop something but the rarity of items is different? I've tried googling it but can't find anything :/

[merry knoll]

use random

[merry knoll]

^

[charred ravine]

yes but it only drops those items sometimes like it doesnt always just pick one

[merry knoll]

how did you implement it?

show some code

[charred ravine]

i need it to always drop an item but pick the rarity

[merry knoll]

random is the solution here, then you will set the rarities from it

[charred ravine]

well I deleted that code but it was someth like if (random.nextint(100) + 1) < 80) {

[merry knoll]

okay, then 20% it wont drop with that code

80% chance it goes into the if

[charred ravine]

yes so how do i make it 100% chance to choose something to drop but with differenty rarities

[merry knoll]

use else?

80% chance it drops x else aka last 20% chance

drops y

[charred ravine]

hmm

[merry knoll]

and for a lot of ranges

just seperate the number

int random = random.nextInt(100)

if(random < 20) // 20% chance
{
// 20% chance code
} else if (random >= 20 && random < 40) // another 20%
{
} else if .. repeat

[charred ravine]

ah thank you

[merry knoll]

if i were you though, i would just use a double

0 - 1

0.5 beign 50% chance etc

[merry knoll]

or even better implementation imho, create an array and fill it with drops

then pick randomly from the array

[charred ravine]

yeah was thinking of array

i get the idea now though

[merry knoll]

you can store the same object multiple times to change its %

[charred ravine]

thank you for the help 😄

[merry knoll]

["drop1","drop1","drop1","drop1","drop2"]

random pick from this gives you 80% drop 1 20% drop 2

[queen plank]

I have this code for a void world chunk generator in my plugin: https://paste.helpch.at/ekovirisah.java. However, I want to support 1.17+ version to be used and some of the methods from 1.18+ does not exist in 1.17. How would I go about doing this?

I assume I need NMS, but ChunkGenerator does not exist in 1.17?

[merry knoll]

ChunkGenerator has been a thing since 1.8

doubt its not there on 1.17

[merry knoll]

.

for lacking methods, you need to either do reflection

or even better different generators depending on version

[molten nimbus]

var datt = (async () => {

        });

        return price;
    } catch (error) {
    }
})();
console.log(datt);```
hi amm anyone can please tell me why this returns me on console Promise <pending>? pretty much clue less

[stuck hearth]

Js?

Basically it's because you're awaiting a response, there's a way to get the response. But I forgot how to do it.

Google await in js
It should give you a decent idea

[molten nimbus]

im not following

[dense drift]

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Promise

[merry knoll]

a promise is not your result

[dense drift]

e.g. datt.then((data) => console.log(data))

[merry knoll]

when you fetch a data, it promises something will be returned in the future

since it takes time to get it

[merry knoll]

then() block there tells it what to do with the data once its returned

that's what I use

var price = await datt.then(result => result);
i wrote down this to get the price it self out of the promise but it is returns to me undefined while on the sync function the price gets printed any suggestion?

[lyric gyro]

mixing await and .then is bad practice, in your example above you'd do console.log(await datt)

[winged pebble]

^ when you mix await and .then syntax, you get confusing behavior

[molten nimbus]

var price = getSteamItemPrice("AK-47 | Redline (Field-Tested)", 730); //returns undefined

function getSteamItemPrice(hash_name, appid) { 
    Fetcher.getItemPrice({
    market_hash_name: hash_name,
    appid: appid,
    callback: (err, price) => {
        if (err) throw err;

        callback(price);
    }
});```
Ok I made some arrangement in the mess and i came up with this but I don't understand why the var is still undefined.

I clueless on this

[merry knoll]

which actions are safe to do on an inventory thread wise?

can you for example edit it on one thread then display it on main? i know it does cloning with setting items and such but not sure on the exact implementation

[winged pebble]

Because your function never returns anything

[robust flower]

how does spigot order listeners with the same priority, are they ordered by insertion order?

[merry knoll]

probably, don't trust on the order if the priority is the same

[quaint skiff]

Hi, I coded a Scoreboard but for some reason it flickers like crazy. Any ideas how I could fix this? (Scoreboard Class : https://paste.helpch.at/vagekujela.java)

[merry knoll]

use teams

instead of editing the score itself, set a team to it

then edit the values of the team

[quaint skiff]

thx, I will try that 🙂

[merry knoll]

you want to edit the prefix - suffix an the name of the team

depending on the string length

[sudden sand]

How can I get how much tool is damaged at block break event with spigot api

[proud pebble]

get the itemstack, get the itemmeta, cast it to damageable and then damageable.getDamage()

[leaden plume]

Hey has anyone used vercel before with a single domain and multiple repos?

I have 3 repos one using domain.com/1 /2 and /3 and the normal way to set it up wasn't working for some reason as in https://drew.tech/posts/vercel-multiple-repos-same-domain so I did a hacky way to make it work but now its causing infinite loops and I am not sure how to fix it or make the proper way work.

[dusty frost]

Any reason they can't be subdomains? Generally you deploy separate apps as separate subdomains, then you don't need to deal with rewriting and shit

[leaden plume]

I like it more tbh

[dusty frost]

Then any reason for not combining them into a single app? Presumably they're in Next, you could just use Next's routing

[leaden plume]

well some arent nextJS

landing page nextjs
Dashboard nextjs
docs / wiki
articles
web leaderboard

[dusty frost]

Yeah I mean I dunno man, sounds like a really good usecase for subdomains lol

[dark garnet]

any better way to store this data?

e907083e-5db6-41fc-9e32-5c4d99a08712:
  '1':
    reason: test
    mod: e907083e-5db6-41fc-9e32-5c4d99a08712```currently using this:```java
Map<UUID, List<Map<Integer, Map<String, UUID>>>>```which is... uh... yea..

[merry knoll]

make a wrapper

[dark garnet]

whats that?

[merry knoll]

wrap the objects that you need to store

into another object

so its actually readable

[dark garnet]

can u give me an example?

[merry knoll]

what is this supposed to be exactly

[dark garnet]

warnings

[merry knoll]

okay, then

create a warning object

with who it is targeting, reason and who applied

then create a profile object of sorts with a set in it

that stores these warning objects

[dark garnet]

i love when intellij just doesnt show me the new file menu ❤️

[dark garnet]

is this right?

public class Warn {
    private final UUID player;
    private final int id;
    private final String reason;
    private final UUID mod;
    public Warn(UUID player, int id, String reason, UUID mod) {
        this.player = player;
        this.id = id;
        this.reason = reason;
        this.moderator = mod;
    }
    public UUID getPlayer() {
        return player;
    }
    public int getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public String getReason() {
        return reason;
    }
    public UUID getMod() {
        return mod;
    }
}```

[merry knoll]

yeah looks good

i would also wrap the player object

and tie it as value

to uuid as hashmap

(or concurrenthashmap if multi threaded)

[dark garnet]

what-

[stuck hearth]

classic POJO

[dark garnet]

whats the difference?

public record Warn(int id, String reason, UUID mod) {}```

cause intellij tells me that it can just be a record, but ive never used records before

[stuck hearth]

Pretty sure l

It's the same thing

[dark garnet]

👀

[dark garnet]

what would be the difference with using List instead of Set?

[merry knoll]

set is not ordered

[dark garnet]

ordering doesnt matter for me, should i just use List?

[merry knoll]

if it doesnt matter, stick with set

its faster with lookups too

if you want to do .contains etc

especially hashset for ^ operations like these

[dark garnet]

ah alr then ill definitely use set

good to know for the future cause i usually just use List

[dusky harness]

also Set doesn't contain any duplicates

and also fun fact: HashSet uses HashMap and iirc the set is just the keys of the map

and hashmaps can't have duplicate keys :)

[dark garnet]

public record Mute(UUID player, String unit, String reason, long time, UUID mod) {}

public class DataManager {
    public static final Set<Mute> mutes = new HashSet<>();
}```how would i get all muted players?

this is what i have rn but i wanna know if there is an easier/better way:

public static Set<UUID> getPlayers() {
    final Set<UUID> muted = new HashSet<>();
    for (final Mute mute : DataManager.mutes) muted.add(mute.player());
    return muted;
}```(inside `Mute` record)

[winged pebble]

I'm confused what you're asking

You want to do getPlayers() inside of Mute?

[dark garnet]

no im saying i have this:

public record Mute(UUID player, String unit, String reason, long time, UUID mod) {
    public static Set<UUID> getPlayers() {
        final Set<UUID> muted = new HashSet<>();
        for (final Mute mute : DataManager.mutes) muted.add(mute.player());
        return muted;
    }
}```

and i wanna know if there's a better way to get players

[winged pebble]

I would personally use a stream

And wouldn't have any of it be static

return DataManager.mutes.stream().map(Mute::player).toSet();

Or .toCollection(new::HashSet)

[dark garnet]

if it isnt static i have to use new Mute(null, null, null, 0, null).getPlayers()

[winged pebble]

I don't think that function belongs in the Mute class tbh

[stuck hearth]

I don't either

This record represents a singular Mute, what players are you getting?

[winged pebble]

They are accessing a static Set in DataManager

[stuck hearth]

It was a question for them not their code.

[stuck hearth]

I would take a moment and learn what the static keyword does, and what it's for before you make everything in your code static -- "Because it won't work otherwise"

[dark garnet]

yea but this just seems a bit excessive: https://srnyx.has.rocks/idea64_bCiPLzTldr.png

[stuck hearth]

Welcome to Java

Also maybe organize it better than one large list

[primal otter]

objects:
Account
Mute
PlayerStat
Spawn...

managers:
MuteManager
PlayerStatManager
SpawnManager...

[dark garnet]

Yeah that’s what I have for non-object managers cause I already have like 15 managers

[dusty frost]

well, the object can have methods and state

[dark garnet]

state?

[dusty frost]

other variables

you could, for instance, keep track of how many players have spawned there, or something

[dark garnet]

oh ye

[dusty frost]

if you literally need nothing more than a mapping of String to Location, then a Map will work fine

but if you ever want anything more, or if you want to work with them together, then you'll want an object

Hey there,

So basically what I am trying to do is when a button is clicked edit an embed.

Now all I want to do is add 1 line to the already existing embed, I have got the message, and then the embed and am able to edit it and update it. But it deletes everything and then just sends the one line i added, anyway to get the current embed data and add it to the new embed?

anyone who knows js that could help?

[dusky harness]

Ask in discord js if u haven't already

(server)

[vestal talon]

I have a weird issue, when I'm trying to loop through all entities in the world while the server have 1+ players it's finding them all,
but once the server empty from players it's not finding them all and gives less results, why is it?
The current code:

for (Entity entity : Bukkit.getWorld(CustomPlugin.getInstance().getMainManager().getDataManager().mainWorld).getEntities()) {
        if (entity.getType() == EntityType.ARMOR_STAND) {
            entity.remove();
        }
}

I tried also if(entity instanceof ArmorStand) but same results...

[sand ermine]

Invite me please if possible

[hoary scarab]

Chunks aren't loaded. Possibly no entities in spawn chunks.

[vestal talon]

How can i overcome it?

[hoary scarab]

Well you can delete them as the chunks load.

[merry knoll]

check on chunk unload

and remove

[edgy lintel]

anyone know javascript

var scripts = document.getElementsByTagName('script');
        for (let script in scripts){
            console.log(script.src);
        }

why does this print undefined pls help

[cinder forum]

try

console.log(script.getAttribute('src'))

or you are trying to print the code?

[edgy lintel]

its fixed its let script of scripts lol

anyway thx so much tho thats cool

getAttribute is elegant

[dense galleon]

Can I not set a slime's base attributes with this code?

        mob.getAttribute(Attribute.GENERIC_MAX_HEALTH).setBaseValue(type.getHP());
        mob.getAttribute(Attribute.GENERIC_ATTACK_DAMAGE).setBaseValue(type.getDmg());
        mob.getAttribute(Attribute.GENERIC_MOVEMENT_SPEED).setBaseValue(type.getSpeed());```

It doesn't seem to work at least

I change the attributes after the entity is spawned, though I tried before as well and it didn't work

[dense galleon]

Also, do slimes deal X amount of damage based on their size?

[spiral prairie]

https://upload.skyslycer.de/idea64_hx6mPHQwru.png This doesnt look right...

triumph gui apparently wants minimessage from oraxen

(gradle says the same)

[dense drift]

Is the right import of triumph-gui ?

And try to refreh gradle

[spiral prairie]

alr did that and didnt work sadly

[proud pebble]

looking at the github it wants adventure's component

weird

[stuck hearth]

That's not weird

[proud pebble]

it feels weird

[stuck hearth]

Paper uses adventure components be default as well as spongepowered IIRC

[proud pebble]

in the ide it says it was oraxens component, but on the github it wants papers components

wants

thats whats weird

[stuck hearth]

Oh I see

Who's oraxen?

[proud pebble]

oraxen i think is a plugin

[stuck hearth]

That's just a relocated dep, how are you importing this dep? @spiral prairie

That doesn't seem right

What is oraxen even for

[spiral prairie]

custom blocks

only need it for the api

[stuck hearth]

Is it provided at runtime?

[spiral prairie]

ye i guess so

[stuck hearth]

What are the imports at the top of the file?
Is the gui coming from triumph?

[spiral prairie]

no, thats the issue

i have the imports set to the correct thing

but crazy gradle still somehow mapps it to the oraxen thing

like why

[vestal talon]

Wdym?

I never messed with chunks and stuff like that so if you can explain a bit and send me reference from docs it will be much appreciated (:

[hoary scarab]

On chunkloadevent retrieve the entities, loop through them to find the armorstands and delete them.

[spiral prairie]

any good java libraries for just creating a simple interactive shell?

like

that has a loop and waits for user input and maps commands to methods

i tried picoli, but that was just running a command everytime your run the jar, not in a feedback loop

[proud pebble]

just make a while loop?

idk

[spiral prairie]

yeah thats like the low budget version, but i like it with ansii, auto completion and suggestion, history, fancy colors n stuff

i mean, i could do that but im lazy

[lyric gyro]

jline

[spiral prairie]

confusing

[lyric gyro]

that's like the best you're gonna get

so

[spiral prairie]

yep

ill use spring shell

[tidal canopy]

Question to all the minecraft plugin developers

If I were to make a plugin where I check every block in a 100x100x100 area around the player, will I have to make it async or not? (Plugin that basically just searches for a type of block in an area, to help clean up event areas)

Why make it async or why not make it async?
Do you have any good reading material I can look at to learn about making my plugin multithreaded

[sterile hinge]

just be aware that it's unsafe to access anything world-related asynchronously

[merry knoll]

anything that is loaded async**

[sterile hinge]

?

[merry knoll]

you can clone the chunk data

loop over async

without any issues

concurrency issues only occur if you access a mutable variable

[sterile hinge]

yes, but that's something different

[merry knoll]

except that it isnt

direct access is thread-unsafe

[sterile hinge]

a snapshot isn't part of the ticking world anymore

[merry knoll]

yes, but for the purposes of what they want to do, its quite valid

[sterile hinge]

sure, still something different

[merry knoll]

i would make it async, but i am willing to bet that there are better ways to handle it

other than looping over all blocks

[merry knoll]

and for your other question of resources, just read on concurrency and thread safety

limiting yourself to bukkit only resources is not a great idea, resources there are usually either bad or outdated

[leaden plume]

anyone here use https://surrealdb.com/ ? just heard about it and thinking about using it over mongodb

[dense drift]

According to the developers' roadmap, the SurrealDB 1.0 release is planned for release in September, 2022
I doubt

[merry knoll]

not production ready afaik

[leaden plume]

they released this month

[merry knoll]

I think it did release like a week or two ago

[leaden plume]

ya ^

[dense drift]

yeah I know it is realeased

[leaden plume]

hmmm I need to figure out a better solution for good scaling that doesnt cost a shit load where I can just host it myself

[dense drift]

I'm just saying it is too new for many people to use it

[leaden plume]

damn 😦

[merry knoll]

I would just stick with postgre honestly

[leaden plume]

hm

they started development back in 2015

😛

[dense drift]

And?

[leaden plume]

idek

It looked good just hoping not to good to be true yk

[merry knoll]

realtime data changes part and its syntax are the main hype points

but again, for a production db i would stick with something tested for now

[dense drift]

It looks interesting, but I agree with Aki ^

[leaden plume]

ya hm

[merry knoll]

but syntax is not a huge deal once you deploy

do you need the real time synching ?

[leaden plume]

ya

[merry knoll]

its usage cases are quite limited i feel like

[leaden plume]

@merry knoll debating to duel database to just test it and see how well it is thoughts?

[merry knoll]

imho not worth the hassle

again, i would just go with something tested and port after if surreal is stable enough for production

[leaden plume]

atm I use mongodb / redis

[merry knoll]

using redis for the pubsub?

if not its kinda redundant i feel like

[leaden plume]

@merry knoll what about https://www.singlestore.com

[merry knoll]

havent seen it

[dusty frost]

mongodb is web scale

[dusty frost]

it's mostly an in-memory caching database lol

the pub/sub is just also a nice addon

[merry knoll]

yeah but while you are running it with mongo i feel like its quite redundant

and memory caching doesnt exactly scale well

[dusty frost]

what lol

[merry knoll]

i mean it has the whole slave - master thing, but its really not ideal

[dusty frost]

the whole point of caching is so that you can scale well

[dusty frost]

that's not for scaling, that's for high availability

[dusty frost]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2F-DItXtZs

[merry knoll]

for some reason, i got brain-lagged meant the clusters and not the master slave

[dusty frost]

still, you don't really want to scale the actual redis itself

[merry knoll]

what i meant is, for most applications one or the other is usually enough unless they are using the pubsub for something a bit more gimmicky

[dusty frost]

it'd be better to use it as a cache per server instance

i mean they don't serve the same purpose

redis is for caching, mongo is a persistent database

would you say you don't need both redis and postrgres?

or does mongo being nosql mean it's a replacement for redis lol

[tired olive]

lmao this is legendary (pretend this is in caps)

[merry knoll]

we are saying the same thing but i am failing to articulate myself i feel like, a lot of use cases of redis that i see dont exactly need caching

[dusty frost]

we definitely aren't saying the same thing lol

redis is not a persistent database

[merry knoll]

yes i am aware

[dusty frost]

mongo is

so using both together

is a good idea if you want caching of some kind

[merry knoll]

my point was chances are the use case doesnt really require caching

[dusty frost]

depends on what you're doing

i've seen django with mongo for persistence and redis for session caching

[merry knoll]

okay time to stop being lazy and type proper:
yes it 100% depends on the use case, its just that i have seen a lot of people abuse redis as a persistent database since it supports snapshot saving

depending on use case for them i would probably just go with an sql + redis if needed (postgre or any other enterprise solution)

instead of trying to use literally released this month db's that are untested in production

[dusty frost]

oh, yeah, that's pretty much what I am saying lol

[dusty frost]

i figured with this statement, you meant "one or the other" as in Redis or a persistent database

and I was like definitely not lol

[merry knoll]

no its more that 90% of the cases i see just basically abuse redis

while sql is 100% of capable of what they want to achieve

[dusty frost]

oh huh yeah, i haven't seen anyone abuse Redis I don't think actually lol

maybe I just don't interact with it enough

[merry knoll]

this is on me, was being lazy with the sentences then i brain farted the master slave to make it worse

[wintry grove]

Redis is good for fast and large data caching across several servers

Mongo is good for also cross server data storage but faster and for smaller amounts of data

[tired olive]

...

[dense drift]

Due to spigot's shitty system for (anything tbh) dependencies management, what would be an optimal way to use adventure in a plugin and its api, and allow others to use their own version of adventure? I know people like luck published their own adventure artefacts on maven central and others can use that instead of the official one 😬

I currently use adventure for only one thing, the title of a GUI https://github.com/iGabyTM/arcane-shop/blob/5669c3d3b1deb21eb47ae5a92322fb5050a84d56/api/src/main/java/me/gabytm/minecraft/arcaneshop/api/shop/Shop.java#L20

[merry knoll]

relocate?

[dense drift]

Yeah.. but methods that expect my relocated components for example, won't accept yours 😬

[merry knoll]

just move it to dev.gaby.dependency.net.kyori or smt

ah, you mean for the api

just make a wrapper

[dense drift]

a wrapper?

[merry knoll]

wrap the component with your own

and take that as parameter

your component depends on the relocated package, whoever is using it depends on the wrapper

[dense drift]

I don't think I understand what you mean by that

Do you mean something that will hold the string value and also the component?

[merry knoll]

depends on how you want them to use it

if its just string values that will get parsed

then no need for component on parameter

but if you want to support components like it was intended, then you gotta wrap that

class YourComponent {
// relocated component here

// builder method
}

[dense drift]

Hmm, I see.

[merry knoll]

dont know the use case but it might be easier to support string input from api

and parse it with minimessage

[dense drift]

Yeah, it might be

I will think about how messages will be implemented, maybe it won't be a pain xD

[spiral prairie]

or make your api not a shadowjar

so its just the source and you can use the unrelocated components ig

[dense drift]

If you dont relocate libraries it will cause problems

[spiral prairie]

yes but you dont ship the lib

and it wont be run on the server cuz its just the api artifact

[stuck hearth]

If it's not on the classpath then your plugin can't use it.
If it is on the classpath then it will clash if not relocated.

[spiral prairie]

just split your api and plugin with modules and interfaces

[stuck hearth]

So I need, for my project, an import of Caffeine;
Usually I would provide this by shadowing the dependency with my jar

You're saying, just split my api and plugin with modules and interfaces

[dense drift]

The api and plugin are separated modules
https://github.com/iGabyTM/arcane-shop/blob/master/api/src/main/java/me/gabytm/minecraft/arcaneshop/api/shop/Shop.java
https://github.com/iGabyTM/arcane-shop/blob/master/plugin/src/main/java/me/gabytm/minecraft/arcaneshop/shop/ShopImpl.java

But I need to relocate adventure, so..

[spiral prairie]

what i think would work is just having it relocate on the main module (the plugin) for shadow but publish the api artifact without any shadowed

i have it in two of my projects and it seems to work fine

[dusky harness]

Instead of shadow you should make it transitive

This allows the user to exclude dependencies

And view what dependencies your project is using in the api

[grand zodiac]

target.setFireTicks(60);
When I run this, it sets the target on fire for around a third of a second then stops, does anyone know why?

Same thing happens regardless of how high I make the tick count

[cerulean gale]

@grand zodiac

Cloud you help me?

[grand zodiac]

Wait nevermind I was in creative mode oops 😭

[cerulean gale]

#placeholder-api

[grand zodiac]

With?

[dense drift]

The api is a part of the plugin, and when adventure is relocated will affect the api classes as well

And if you provide a different api jar, it won't work. You have probably seen APIs for premium plugins that have dummy classes and methods throw some kind of exceptions, that's because at runtime those classes will be replaced by the actual classes

[lyric gyro]

If you want to expose or interact with adventure in the API itself, and the plugin relocates adventure, the API has to provide the shaded & relocated version of adventure

[dense drift]

yeah 😦

[lyric gyro]

It is, for all that matters, not adventure, an entirely different class that is not net.kyori.adventure... that just happens to share the simple name

[stuck hearth]

If it was for an API this makes sense

[grand zodiac]

    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] args) {
        if (!(sender instanceof Player)) { return true; }
        Player player = (Player) sender;
        if (args.length == 0) {
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&',"&d&lPowers &8» &7You must specify a player to cast lightning on!"));
            return true;
        }
        if (args.length == 1) {
            Player target = Bukkit.getPlayer(args[0]);
            assert target != null;
            World world = (World) player;
            world.strikeLightning(target.getLocation());
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&',"&d&lPowers &8» &7&dYou &7have struck lightning on &d" + target.getName()));
            target.sendMessage(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&',"&d&lPowers &8» &dYou&7 have been struck by lightning."));
            return true;
        }
        return true;
    }```
Does anyone know why it gives an internal error whenever I run the command? It does not give one when running it without arguments, but does when running it with a player argument

I can provide the stacktrace if needed but I have no idea how to read them (i really should learn but i dont know where to start), thanks!

(sorry to anyone who read that earlier i put the wrong file lol)(

[merry knoll]

do post the stacktrace

[tight junco]

yeah can you send the stack trace, they're decent because they should tell you exactly what line they're on etc

[stuck hearth]

Yeah we can help you read it

[grand zodiac]

here you go, thanks

[tight junco]

i would like to point out that assert does basically nothing and you will have to check if the player is null

[merry knoll]

line 24

at dev.hepno.powers.powers.Commands.Lightning.onCommand(Lightning.java:24) ~[Powers-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar:?]

it tells you here

[grand zodiac]

ah thanks, I assume id do player.getWorld(); instead?

[merry knoll]

World world = (World) player;

ah yes

[tight junco]

yeah

[merry knoll]

a player is not a world

[grand zodiac]

thank you, i just did it cause intellij told me to

[merry knoll]

player.getWorld is the one that you want

(World) this

[tight junco]

intellij can be pretty stupid sometimes

[stuck hearth]

It might actually throw a runtime exception

[merry knoll]

tries to cast the object into whatever you put in there

so (Player) sender

only works since the sender IS and can be a player

which is not true for a world on a player

[grand zodiac]

ahh makes sense, thank you

[merry knoll]

to get the world a player is in

player.getWorld()

[grand zodiac]

thank you so much guys for the help!

very much appreciated!!

[tardy cosmos]

Anyone have any idea for how to go about dynamically downloading dependencies that still works with Java 17? I know LuckPerms does it with some sort of jar-in-jar system but I have no clue how that works. I'm trying to download database drivers only if they're needed so my jar size isn't needlessly large and exceeding the spigot upload limits. Please ping me if you reply ty

[dusky harness]

slimjar
or I recommend using spigot plugin.yml libraries if you're on 1.16+

[tardy cosmos]

regrettably I want to keep 1.8 support because people refuse to move on, thanks though, I'll look into that

[dusky harness]

alr, just wanted to mention it just in case, slimjar is fine though

https://github.com/dkim19375/slimjar

[tardy cosmos]

oh it's yours lol

[dusky harness]

nope

temp fork

until yugi merges it

unless he fixed it

I think yugi merged it

nvm @tardy cosmos use https://github.com/slimjar/slimjar he merged it

[tardy cosmos]

alrighty thanks a bunch

[lyric gyro]

np

[dusky harness]

you'll have to use maven local though

since his maven repo is down

[tardy cosmos]

would it be fine if I published it to my own

[dusky harness]

uhhhh probably not

it's compatible with CI though

just git clone

worked with github actions at least :))

not sure if I still have the script though since I moved to spigot libraries

nvm I have it

https://pastes.dev/3DLaDJQNYF

It was in fact a lot more similar than I thought it would be. Only major difference was how auto incrementing IDs work

[round sail]

Anyone got that picture of the inventory slot numbers for all the different containers handy?

Namely looking for anvil and enchant table rn.

[winged pebble]

anvil should just be 0-2 left to right

Lovely ty thats where it was

[spiral prairie]

is the sk89q maven down?

[merry knoll]

why not go in and check

just type on your browser

[spiral prairie]

ye did and it was down

just wanted to know if its just for me or for anyone else

[merry knoll]

on phone atm can check in a min

[spiral prairie]

https://maven.sk89q.com/repo

[dense drift]

https://maven.enginehub.org/repo/

one is a mirror of the other iirc

[spiral prairie]

alr

[sterile hinge]

It’s down for years already afaik

[proud pebble]

Do entities save custom nbt data on server shutdown?

cause i remember seeing somewhere that itemstacks do, but entities and tiles dont

[tardy cosmos]

They do not, the bukkit API provides the PersistentDataContainer interface for adding keys that do save across restarts though

it is 1.14.4+ only though afaik

[dense drift]

yes

[proud pebble]

so im stuck using pdc, great...

[hoary scarab]

Could save the data yourself

[proud pebble]

so im stuck using pdc, great...

[spiral prairie]

Where is the issue?

[proud pebble]

id rather use nms rather then pdc but for entities its not really possible

[dense drift]

whats wrong with pdc?

it is just bukkit's implementation of nbt

except that values are stored under a compound named BukkitPublicValues

[proud pebble]

what i dont like is that its pluginname:value

thats it

you also cant read/modify original values

[dense drift]

yeah because it uses namespaced keys, but that's also a good thing because you know which plugin set which value

[spiral prairie]

Why dont you like that?

[spiral prairie]

"original values"?

[dense drift]

.

[floral beacon]

is it possible to detect ProxiedPlayer MC version (so basically i just need if it's 1.8 / 1.15 / 1.19)? Bungee plugin

Please tag me / reply with tag to my message whoever answer me

[proud pebble]

original values = vanilla nbt data

which is why i prefer nms over using pdc

cus you can modify them if you want to, or read them aswell

since currently there is no goat horn itemmeta so reading the goat horn sound type is impossible without nms

[spiral prairie]

I see

For that case, an nbt api would be good

Fot just storing and reading plugin data on entities, pdc is best

[hoary scarab]

Isn't it linked to CustomModelData?

[dusky harness]

I don't think so

Custom model data is for resource packs

Afaik that's its only purpose

[hoary scarab]

Yeah so is the audio of the horn

[dusky harness]

Well not really

Or

Ig I see what u mean

But custom model data is for mods/plugins I think

So they made a new tag

[hoary scarab]

🤷 there is data packs that add new audio for horns so the data has to be available somewhere.

[dusky harness]

Yea it should say on the wiki

I think

1 min

Oh the tag is instrument

[proud pebble]

yep

[dusky harness]

And for some reason spigot didn't add an api

:((

[proud pebble]

currently theres no way to get it without nbt

its quite sadge

[dusky harness]

There's nbtapi btw

But still unfortunate

[proud pebble]

currently i just use nms instead of relying on nbtapi

[dusky harness]

🤔

Interesting choice

How come?

U can shade it

[proud pebble]

im not just using nbt, im also using other nms stuff for custom mobs

[dusky harness]

Okay

[proud pebble]

cus spigot doesnt have api for custom mobs yet

i wonder when that will be added

probably never

idk

[dusky harness]

I was looking at the source for nms.Block#fromLegacyData since I saw that it was in 1.8 but removed in newer versions and I see this - https://i.imgur.com/ihbhQBa.png

so what is the parameter (data) used for??

was it ever being used?

this is decompiling spigot-1.8.8-R0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

[icy shadow]

it's probably overriden

[dusky harness]

ohhhh

that makes sense

[icy shadow]

iirc in nms there's 1 class per block type, so that would be for things like coloured wool

[dusky harness]

so I'm guessing that there's no way to replicate that method

:((

[icy shadow]

wdym

[dusky harness]

trying to update a plugin from 1.8 NMS to 1.18

[icy shadow]

ehhhh

not easily

[dusky harness]

    private void sendPacket(final Block block, final Location loc, final Player player, final Material material, final byte data) {
        final ClientboundBlockUpdatePacket packet = new ClientboundBlockUpdatePacket(((CraftWorld) block.getWorld()).getHandle(), new BlockPos(loc.getX(), loc.getY(), loc.getZ()));
        packet.blockState = CraftMagicNumbers.getBlock(material).fromLegacyData(data);
        ((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().playerConnection.sendPacket(packet);
    }
```this is the full code btw

half updated half non updated

lol

[icy shadow]

well in later versions you wouldnt need the legacy data

[proud pebble]

im assuming that the method parameter is left unused just so it doesnt break older plugins?

[icy shadow]

it's just the material / block

[dusky harness]

oh

[icy shadow]

nah it's for subclasses, nms has never cared about compatibility, and isn't supposed to

[dusky harness]

d;spigot Block#getdata

[uneven lantern]

org.bukkit.block.Block#getData

@Deprecated
byte getData()```

Description:

Gets the metadata for this block

Deprecation Message:

Magic value

Returns:

block specific metadata

Requested by: dkim19375 • spigot

[dusky harness]

so this is useless?

[icy shadow]

yes

[dusky harness]

got it

ty bm

:D

[icy shadow]

it will always be 0 on 1.13+ afaik

np

thats what the whole conversion was doing behind the scenes

[dusky harness]

Another question - is there a list of plants that are 2 blocks high?

basically Material.DOUBLE_PLANT but modern :))

can't find anything online

besides looking at all of them

or theres https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Flower

ooh

found it

okay what is LONG_GRASS 🥲
legacy has GRASS and LONG_GRASS
but no GRASS_BLOCK

but newer has GRASS, TALL_GRASS, and GRASS_BLOCK

🤔

I wish there was a conversion chart

or actually there's XMaterial

so apparently an orange tulip used to be... RED_ROSE

might just use XMaterial

seems pretty neat

[icy shadow]

they were all rose with data values

[icy shadow]

i expect it uses tags

[proud pebble]

im having a fun time going down the chain of how minecraft crafting inventories work

[hoary scarab]

Might want to write up your own class as XMaterial is a pretty bloated class.

[spiral prairie]

Yeah no

I've tried adding VaultAPI to my pom.xml, but IntelliJ says "Dependency 'com.github.milkbowl.vault:1.7-3' not found"

[dense drift]

https://github.com/MilkBowl/VaultAPI

[neat pier]

📋 Your paste: Hepno

https://paste.helpch.at/daniteloki

A member of staff has requested I move your message to a paste,
Most likely because it contains a config/error/code snippet.

[grand zodiac]

Ahh right pastes, sorry forgot those existed

[grand zodiac]

Yeah I've read that, but the instructions provided don't work

[dense drift]

you copied the wrong artifact

[grand zodiac]

I've tried both vault and VaultAPI, vault being whats found on jitpack and VaultAPI on github, neither work

[dense drift]

    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.github.MilkBowl</groupId>
        <artifactId>VaultAPI</artifactId>
        <version>1.7</version>
        <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>```
This works 100%

[grand zodiac]

Nope same bug unfortunately

[warm steppe]

Use gradle bruuh

[merry knoll]

do you have jitpack on your repos

to use github repos directly you need jitpack as your repository

[grand zodiac]

On Maven?

Yeah

Hold on wha

I restarted IntelliJ and now it works fine

No idea why, maybe IntelliJ was just being weird

[grand zodiac]

haha no <3

[shell moon]

Someone knows a really easy to understand post (or class) to track positions for a race minigame so you can track (in real time) player positions and ofc prevent them from passing the start/finish line (and counting as lap) with the use of checkpoints or something?

[high edge]

boundingboxes

[dusty frost]

mario kart

no seriously, look at how mario kart does the checkpoints and shit

[hushed badge]

just don't look at mk64 or mkwii in that case

[dusty frost]

nah do, but just fix the bugs they have lol

or don't and let your people discover skips!

[hushed badge]

🥲

[marble nimbus]

Hey I am trying to move a non existent Entity (NPC / FakePlayer), basically I want to use its PathFinding to let it walk to a specific Location. I know I have to use Packets for that, since the Entity is not actually existing, but I am not sure which Packets I need. Does anyone know what Packet I need to use?

I used this site to check the Packets :https://nms.screamingsandals.org/1.16.5/net/minecraft/world/entity/ai/behavior/index.html

[proud pebble]

i wouldve assumed that wiki.vg would have the packets required

or atleast some of them atleast

[round shoal]

Anyone now how to add Custom Model Data inside a DeluxeMenus ? CustomModelData: <number> didn't work

[tight junco]

#general-plugins

should be on the wiki though

[forest jay]

I am trying to set the contents of a shulker box, and this is what I am using. It isnt working, no errors. ```java
int slot = player.getInventory().firstEmpty();
player.getInventory().addItem(new ItemStack(Material.SHULKER_BOX));

            BlockStateMeta im = (BlockStateMeta) player.getInventory().getItem(slot).getItemMeta();
            if(im.getBlockState() instanceof ShulkerBox && kit.getItems() != null) {
                ShulkerBox shulker = (ShulkerBox) im.getBlockState();
                shulker.getInventory().setContents(kit.getItems());
                im.getBlockState().update();
            }

[dusky harness]

try putting a print inside the if statement

[lyric gyro]

               im.getBlockState().update();

this won't work, that's for updating a live block

and you need to setItemMeta

[dusky harness]

oh

oh thats an item

oh

[marble nimbus]

well I am not even sure what to look for

[dusky harness]

Packets don't handle pathfinding

[marble nimbus]

Well I need a way to let NPCs move automatically to a specific destination

[dusky harness]

you'd have to either somehow incorporate Minecraft's pathfinding api into whatever you're doing or create your own pathfinding system afaik

I'm not sure what Citizens does

if you're not using nms entities, then you have to make your own of everything: movement, health management, etc

[marble nimbus]

big oof, any hint how I could easily implement movement?

[merry knoll]

thats the easy way

[surreal lynx]

Anyone know what could be going on here?

CF Pages is giving me this error https://pastes.dev/8z5B1AaHyG, but it works fine on Netlify. This is my build configuration:

(i didn't create this site myself, it was made by someone else for me)

[forest jay]

thanks

[surreal lynx]

Update: It worked when I built the site myself and then uploaded it to CF Pages via wrangler CI

[shell moon]

[stuck hearth]

True

[shell moon]

I've seen it in some minigames but couldnt find any open source one xd

[stuck hearth]

Really just checkpoints and distance math I imagine

[shell moon]

Checkpoints as location you mean?

I'd need to then loop all checkpoints?

Or you mean checkpoint as interactive stuff (pressure plate)

[dusky harness]

I mean looping itself I don't think is that bad since after all, all it is is comparing some doubles

(xyz)

and the world, so ig a String or UUID, depending on how you want to compare the worlds

[shell moon]

loop it self?
