that will cause the CF to pass it further down the chain
to be handled in a exceptionally/whenComplete

[icy shadow]

^ whenComplete is not necessarily a terminal operation

[minor summit]

(albeit it should)

[icy shadow]

mm

little bit odd but

here we are

[atomic trail]

Why just keep throwing it further down the chain if it can't be printed?

Except for standard logger ofc

[minor summit]

you are meant to print it

[atomic trail]

I see

Alright

[minor summit]

or, well, more appropriately, handle it, if printing it is your way of handling it, then print it

[atomic trail]

This is an error that should never happen so ye, I'll just print it

Thanks

[icy shadow]

"should never happen" i've heard that one before

[atomic trail]

Yeah lol, but as in there shouldn't be anything to handle it, it's just an error in the code

Oh lol https://paste.helpch.at/zifuredite.rb yeah that worked

[minor summit]

🎉

[atomic trail]

And then ofc

It's some stupid easy mistake

[icy shadow]

now imagine if there was a language with no exceptions and we could emulate it with some sort of "error" type which automatically propagates the error case

[atomic trail]

Forgot to reupload the config file

Wondering if this is a good-ish way to handle uploads.... I mainly talk about the changes made to the version-uploader, as I'm not sure if using CompletableFutures like that is really a good idea... And before asking, I did it because the Library I use to upload to Modrinth is returning a CompletableFuture.

https://codeberg.org/Andre601/AdvancedServerList/pulls/144

[sterile hinge]

Well 🤓 in the OpenJDK there is no such thing as LTS, LTS is something vendors can freely decide to provide for any version 🤓

So for Mojang it likely only matters what Microsoft is doing with their Java builds

[sonic nebula]

so after a while

                String updatedLASTName = meta.getDisplayName().replaceFirst("LAST=\\w+", "LAST=" + last);
                meta.setDisplayName(updatedLASTName);
                item.setItemMeta(meta);
                player.setItemInHand(item);

can anyone explain me why it does not work

How can this resultSet already be closed? It's in the twr but should only close after returning?

    private <T> CompletableFuture<T> query(String query, @NotNull SafeConsumer<PreparedStatement> initializer, @NotNull SafeFunction<ResultSet, T> process) {
        return openConnection().thenApply(connection -> {
            try(Connection newConnection = connection;
                PreparedStatement statement = newConnection.prepareStatement(query);
                ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery()) {
                initializer.consume(statement);
                if(resultSet.isClosed()) {
                    throw new RuntimeException("ResultSet is closed - check logs");
                }
                return process.apply(resultSet);
            } catch(Exception e) {
                LOGGER.error("Error when preparing statement for query: " + query);
                throw new RuntimeException(e);
            }
        });
    }

It's throwing the exception that the resultset is closed btw

Full error: https://paste.helpch.at/patexenito.less

This only happens when the database is empty and just the table has been setup

[sterile hinge]

what does the initializer do?

[river solstice]

maybe try this

private <T> CompletableFuture<T> query(String query, @NotNull SafeConsumer<PreparedStatement> initializer, @NotNull SafeFunction<ResultSet, T> process) {
    return openConnection().thenApply(connection -> {
        try (Connection newConnection = connection;
             PreparedStatement statement = newConnection.prepareStatement(query)) {
            initializer.consume(statement);
            try (ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery()) {
                if (resultSet.isClosed()) {
                    throw new RuntimeException("ResultSet is closed - check logs");
                }
                return process.apply(resultSet);
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            LOGGER.error("Error when preparing statement for query: " + query);

[frozen grove]

how can I prevent water from destroying redstone while still allowing it to flow? when i cancel the BlockFromToEvent the water stops flowing

[sonic nebula]

U can’t

It’s hard coded

Oh I mean u won’t be able to let it flow

Over red stone

Do a check when ever the event is executed I guess

A loop of 1x r and if it’s == then cancel

But it will kinda heavy so find a way to optimize that

Like to freeze it or so not sure how to do it

Since u will have to call it off every tick

Or freeze all the water

[somber gale]

What would be a good way to delay the closing/shut down of an executable jar when using a CompletableFuture?
I currently encounter the issue that the jar finishes its executions in the main void method while CompletableFuture's are still running....
So I have to delay it somehow until they complete... either successfully or with a throwable...

And the reason why I use CompletableFutures is that one of the libraries I use is returning a CompletableFuture for its task....

The code is here....
https://codeberg.org/Andre601/AdvancedServerList/src/branch/master/version-uploader/src/main/java/ch/andre601/advancedserverlist/versionuploader/VersionUploader.java

Necessary Logs:

+ java -jar VersionUploader.jar --all
[ 20.09.2023 21:40:04 INFO  ] [main] [VersionUploader] - Starting release uploader... 
[ 20.09.2023 21:40:04 INFO  ] [main] [CodebergReleaseFetcher] - Using tag v3.5.0...

[ 20.09.2023 21:40:04 INFO  ] [main] [HangarVersionUploader] - Starting HangarVersionUploader... 

Looking at the logs it seems to start the Uploaders but then skips the whenComplete(...) part of the CF...
Googling tells me that join() might work... But I wonder if that would delay the thread until the future completes or throws.... or if I have to add some delay thing myself...

Help is greatly apreciated... Also in terms of if my aproach in the ModrinthVersionUploader is okay, as I can't think of any better solution here...

[minor summit]

.join() will block the current thread until the future completes, which sounds exactly like the kind of issue you're having, it seems sensible to .join() there i'd say, given that the default CF thread pool uses daemon threads, which is what is making the VM exit even though those threads might not be done running

[atomic trail]

Ohhh yeah that’s a good idea! Will test when home and update you if it works :))

[icy shadow]

seem like this would only happen if initializer was closing the statement or openConnection closes the connection

double check both of those dont happen

[atomic trail]

How would I check that? Not sure where to look, in the lambda implementation?

The weird thing is that it only happens after the database file has been created and the table is empty though

[icy shadow]

Well yeah lol it’s your code

[atomic trail]

I’ve been looking through it all, just can’t see how the rs would be closed

It’s not closed in the lambda implementations

[dusky harness]

can u show the code of the lambda

[atomic trail]

Oh my phone rn so a bit difficult but this should show it https://paste.helpch.at/agodogetak.js

The resultset is closed when using getInt

It’s already closed before using rs.next

[dusky harness]

what if you comment out initializer.consume(statement)

[somber gale]

Yeah, that seems to work. Tho now I have exceptions which from what I understand are caused by the library using outdated endpoints... xD

[minor summit]

lol

errors are good!

[atomic trail]

Will try when I get home, thanks :))

[worldly parcel]

Heyyy.... I am sorry to ask, but when i open PAPI in IntelliJ from Github, i get this error: Unsupported class file major version 64

Can someone pls help me?

[sonic nebula]

its legit kotlin

wdym

[sonic nebula]

is PAPI is an opensource?

[worldly parcel]

PAPI = PlaceholderAPI

[sonic nebula]

oh

what r u doing trying to do with PAPI?

[worldly parcel]

I think yeah, i mean how can i add myself expansions 😉

[sonic nebula]

did u even learn to code?

[worldly parcel]

yeah

[sonic nebula]

just wondering

because u dont need papi opensource

to make xpansions

expansions

[worldly parcel]

i read the wiki, i think i have to add code in the package at.helpch.placeholderapi.example.expansions;

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/PlaceholderExpansion#onrequestofflineplayer-string
There you see what i have read

[sonic nebula]

yeah

and how would you add this to your project?

i ask u questions so u can answer on them

[worldly parcel]

so you think, this is the class i have to add in my project and not in the papi project?

[sonic nebula]

do u use maven

or

gradle

[worldly parcel]

in my project maven

[sonic nebula]

add PAPI to pom.xml

[worldly parcel]

ahh okayyy, now i understand how thats works

[sonic nebula]

then update it gonna download

[worldly parcel]

i dont need to add my expansion into papi

[sonic nebula]

and u gonna be able to use it

no

no reason

[worldly parcel]

ahhh lollll

[sonic nebula]

PAPI just passes strings

between plugins

like vault passes a value between plugins

[worldly parcel]

okayyy, thank you so muchhhhhhh, its so early in the morning

[sonic nebula]

yeah i know

first time u will get used to it

its also kinda confusing so if u got any questions i can help u with ill be glad

[worldly parcel]

thankssss

[dusty frost]

funnily enough var is actually in Java, but you're right it is Kotlin lol

i didn't even see it, but it does work basically the same with both

Hello!

How I can get player skin in base64?

private String encodeToBase64(String data) {
        // Convert the data to bytes
        byte[] dataBytes = data.getBytes();

        // Encode the bytes to Base64

        return Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(dataBytes);
    }


encodeToBase64(Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(record.get(0)).getPlayerProfile().getTextures().getSkin().toString())

[hoary scarab]

Doesn't that already return the base64? .getPlayerProfile().getTextures().getSkin()

[shy canopy]

It's not valid. I can't convert it to playerhead

[hoary scarab]

Ah it gets the URL of the skin.

[shy canopy]

GetSkin return url?

[hoary scarab]

yes

[river solstice]

yes, if you want to read the docs first

[hoary scarab]

You can get the base64 from GameProfile.

[shy canopy]

I already know that but how?

[hoary scarab]

((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().getProfile()

[atomic trail]

It's closed already before that, not sure how

            try(Connection newConnection = connection;
                PreparedStatement statement = newConnection.prepareStatement(query);
                ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery()) {
                if(resultSet.isClosed()) {
                    throw new RuntimeException("ResultSet is closed - before consuming statement");
                }
                initializer.consume(statement);
                if(resultSet.isClosed()) {
                    throw new RuntimeException("ResultSet is closed - check logs");
                }
                return process.apply(resultSet);
            } catch(Exception e) {
                LOGGER.error("Error when preparing statement for query: " + query);
                throw new RuntimeException(e);
            }

I guess the connection isn't working properly?

This only happens after the database file is created, on next startup it doesn't give any errors

I've check, the statement or connection is not closed, so not sure why the result set would be

[icy shadow]

What query are you actually running?

[atomic trail]

It's from this, but I've found out that it only errors when I run this before

As in if 2nd ss runs before 1st ss

It should just create some default data if the player is not already in the database

This is the error if that helps https://paste.helpch.at/jalolareqo.less

It does create the default data, and when the player joins next time it's all good (no errors)

Is CompletableFuture.allOf(...) followed by CompletableFuture#join() a good aproach here?
Because checking what good solutions are, people recommend to use CompletableFuture#thenCombine(otherCompletableFuture, BiFunction<T, U, V>) and then probably join...

I basically want to wait for multiple CompletableFutures to finish properly and don't know if the allOf is the best aproach here... Especially since one of the methods generates three individual ones I need to combine with a separate one....

Also, yes, it's related to the previous question I asked here... Check the code I linked there... Especially the ModrinthVersionUploader and HangarVersionUploader classes as I'm not sure if there isn't a more elegant solution here...

Message Link: #development message

[umbral stone]

its kotlin, a much it compiles to java, and is arguably better

[royal hedge]

um actually it compiles to jvm bytecode 🤓

[royal hedge]

and kotlin can inerop with any jvm language?

and spring has additional support for kotlin

[minor summit]

that's fine, allOf is a straight up "I just want a future that completes when all these complete", thenCombine is for processing (and combining) the futures' results which for your case it doesn't seem relevqnt

[somber gale]

Okay

[atomic trail]

For some reason it fixed it if I run https://paste.helpch.at/omobapeciy.js one tick after https://paste.helpch.at/cucipacada.kotlin but I've got no clue why

Before it ran on the same tick

[atomic trail]

This is my current code that works, but seems weird that I need to make it like that

        /* Create default data if player is not in database */
        database.createDefaultData(uuid);
        /* Load player data 1 tick after creating default data */
        Bukkit.getScheduler().runTask(bossEvents, () -> {
            database.deserializePlayerData(uuid).thenAccept((BePlayer data) -> {
                Bukkit.getScheduler().runTask(bossEvents, () -> {
                    bePlayers.put(data.getUniqueId(), data);
                });
            }).whenComplete((input, exception) -> {
                if(exception != null) {
                    LOGGER.error("Exception when deserializing player data for " + uuid, exception);
                    throw new RuntimeException(exception);
                }
            });
        });

It doesn't work if I don't run database.deserializePlayerData 1 tick later

Looks like I need a proper connection pooling system?

[sterile hinge]

I mean idk why you don't use a datasource

[atomic trail]

Yeah looking into that right now actually, but then I should change the Connection to a PooledConnection right? Like this or something

                SQLiteConnectionPoolDataSource dataSource = new SQLiteConnectionPoolDataSource();
                PooledConnection pooledConnection = dataSource.getPooledConnection();

[sterile hinge]

if that exists, you can use it I guess

[atomic trail]

Using Just SQLiteDataSource fixed all the issues...

Instead of the DriverManager

[icy shadow]

hm

my theory was some sort of race condition

not sure if this backs that up or not

[atomic trail]

Yeah well nvm using datasource didnt fix it lol

[atomic trail]

But it's definitely something to do with opening two connections at the same time or something

Not sure if that's race condition or not

[icy shadow]

possibly

the big red flag is the ignoring of returned futures

eg you're ignoring the result of update()

i dont really know if thats gonna cause the issue or not

if you want you can push it all to a gh repo and i'll play around

[atomic trail]

That would be amazing if you're willing to do that

Can I dm you the repo?

Changed to use the result of update()

But that should not be an issue in this case

[lime sequoia]

Hello Tony, Could you please read my dm. Thanks

[dusky harness]

[dusky harness]

doesn't it return an array?
If so, then you can use the i probably... somehow

¯_(ツ)_/¯

ya its dead

🪦

[worn jasper]

question is, is that order by slot?

if so, what slot even is offhand lmao

[dusky harness]

should be yeah

[leaden sinew]

What is implementationRelocate?
Why not just use shadowJar, and have

build {
    dependsOn(shadowJar)
}

[dark garnet]

https://github.com/srnyx/gradle-galaxy/blob/master/src/main/kotlin/xyz/srnyx/gradlegalaxy/utility/Dependencies.kt#L131-L154

[leaden sinew]

What's the benefit of that over shadowJar

[dusky harness]

he is using shadow

[dark garnet]

it is shadowjar

[dusky harness]

it just automatically sets the relocation

[dark garnet]

^

[leaden sinew]

Why?

[dusky harness]

so that you don't have to manually add the relocation line

good idea tbh

forgot to copy it

[dark garnet]

smh

[dusky harness]

thanks for the reminder 👍

[dark garnet]

:(

[dusky harness]

hey u copied me too :))

[dark garnet]

make sure to copy both as first one is for project implementations and bottom is for strings

[dusky harness]

wdym?

[dark garnet]

first: implementationRelocate(project, project(":AnnoyingAPI", "shadow"), ...)
second: implementationRelocate(project, "xyz.srnyx:java-utilities:1.0.0", ...)

[dusky harness]

oh right

🙃

[dark garnet]

@leaden sinew ive been using implementationRelocate for a while and havent had any issues btw (also i tried switching it to just implementation but still didnt work)

[leaden sinew]

When you use it how do you build your project?

[dark garnet]

gradle build publishToMavenLocal

[leaden sinew]

Can you send an example project where you've used it?

[dark garnet]

used what?

[leaden sinew]

implementationRelocate

That works

[pulsar ferry]

It would be less work to just spin your own reposilite repo on a cheap vps than trying to work with shitpack

[dark garnet]

its not jitpack thats the issue

its not building on github or local either

[leaden sinew]

Try adding dependsOn(shadowJar)

Also, why are you publishing the example plugin?

[dark garnet]

its not being published

just built at same time

https://jitpack.io/xyz/srnyx/annoying-api/4.1.1/

[leaden sinew]

Why not just exclude it?

[dark garnet]

how

[dark garnet]

doesnt fix

[pulsar ferry]

Can you give me a TLDR of the issue?

[leaden sinew]

Building their example-plugin module causes an error because it can’t find classes from the API

[dark garnet]

build logs: https://jitpack.io/xyz/srnyx/annoying-api/5832a610a5/build.log

[leaden sinew]

Try removing it from settings.gradle.kts

[dark garnet]

example-plugin? if so, yea it builds

[leaden sinew]

So it’s working now?

[dark garnet]

well its not building the example plugin now

[leaden sinew]

That’s what removing it was for lol

[dark garnet]

i know but i still want it to be built

[leaden sinew]

What happens when you build it individually?

[dark garnet]

api works, example plugin doesnt

[leaden sinew]

Can you try with regular shadow jar just to see whether it has anything to do with that

[dark garnet]

nope same issue

with:

dependencies {
    implementation(project(":AnnoyingAPI", "shadow"))
}
```and `gradle shadowJar`

this is when it stopped working btw https://srnyx.needs.rest/chrome_wz4v6Dq2Oh.png

https://github.com/srnyx/annoying-api/commit/5832a610a5b457c0a6f938fb734ffb5521e324dd

[leaden sinew]

Idk what the issue is then and I’m on my phone now so it’s hard for me to look

[dark garnet]

its when i replaced a lot of my classes with:
implementationRelocate(project, "xyz.srnyx:java-utilities:1.0.0")

changing this to implementation fixed it ^

but i wanna know why 😩

wait i know why and its the DUMBEST thing ever

if not provided, implementationRelocate will automatically get the group of the provided dependency (in this case, xyz.srnyx), and use that as the relocation thing

so, since my api is xyz.srnyx.annoyingapi, it was relocating it to xyz.srnyx.annoyingapi.libs.srnyx

[dusky harness]

But why would they prevent compile

[dark garnet]

so to still use implementationRelocate i just have to do implementationRelocate(project, "xyz.srnyx:java-utilities:1.0.0", relocateFrom = "xyz.srnyx.javautilities") instead

[dark garnet]

it isnt

[dusky harness]

Oh

[dark garnet]

example-plugin just cant find annoyingapi

import xyz.srnyx.annoyingapi.AnnoyingCooldown;
should actually be:
import xyz.srnyx.annoyingapi.libs.srnyx.AnnoyingCooldown;

[dusky harness]

Why tho

Oh

What

Whh

Why*

[dark garnet]

cause its relocating xyz.srnyx to xyz.srnyx.annoyingapi.libs.srnyx

[dusky harness]

But why is it relocating in source?

[dark garnet]

wdym

like why is it relocating the project itself?

[dusky harness]

Relocations shouldn't affect source cods

Code

Oh qait

Wait

[dark garnet]

...

[dusky harness]

Oh you mean in the api

Like the api api

In the api

[dark garnet]

no this is in the example-plugin

[dusky harness]

Idk

[dark garnet]

but the api is being relocated like in itself 💀

so the example-plugin cant find where the api should be (when compiling)

api: im gonna relocate xyz.srnyx.annoyingapi to xyz.srnyx.annoyingapi.libs.srnyx
example-plugin: i want to import xyz.srnyx.annoyingapi but its not there wtf???
gradle: yeah u guys r weird imma fail now

@dusky harness ^ u get now?

[dusky harness]

uh

sure 🥲

I made a new spigot wiki article today that is totally beyond my mind to maintain

just wanted to send it here, every contribution is welcome. but please feel free to read the code of conduct https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/spigot-api-changelog/?noRedirect=1

[light pendant]

how do you people deal with customers who have issues only with bedrock issues? do you blatantly tell them "no spigot/no java = not my issue, or just refund them instantly, or check out the problem and only refund if you notice they need bedrock support but it's not possible with just spigot api/ .... ?"

once I figured out the issue really only occurs for bedrock users, and I notice it's important for the buyer that they care about bedrock users not having issues, I just refund them, no questions, asked, even if their purchase is like >3 months ago. However this is getting annoying. why do server owners take it for granted that plugin devs have to care about geyser issues? 😢

ofc I do understand the server owner but if they plugin purchase is like 3 months ago, I would have imagine they had tested it right away?

[hazy nimbus]

If you don't explicitly state the plugin supports bedrock/geyser, they have no right for refund imo

[light pendant]

yes I know

but imagine being a customer

they expect it to work

[hazy nimbus]

They shouldn't

[light pendant]

yeah but I'd rather give back 5,99€ than getting a 1 star review haha

[hazy nimbus]

Well that's a different one

But that isn't exclusive only to bedrock issues, is it?

[light pendant]

that plugin is exclusively is related bedrock issues

I think there's no rule gainst me linking a spigotmc link right?

[hazy nimbus]

No idea

[light pendant]

https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/⭐-stackresize-⭐.102376/

it's this plugin

and it seems like bedrock does not accept any recipes added by THIRD PARTY (not mine, but an additional third party plugin) recipes that have altered max-stack size recipes to recipes that usually only allow 1 stack size

[hazy nimbus]

Tbh maybe add it in caps and bold into the plugin description

[light pendant]

let's just do it in law speak:

My plugin is called X.
Other plugin is called Y.
Plugin X and Y work nice together

But adding a recipe that both uses manipulated stack sizes, and a custom recipe from plugin called Y, works fine too.

Only on bedrock, X + Y causes issues

but because I'm too tired I just offered a refund instead of investigating it at all

the plugin price is 6€, so even thinking about it for > 1 minute isn't really worth it

I just wanted to heart general opinions 🙂

Hey guys,
I tryed to add my own texturepack and it worked but only some, is there any pixel requearmint lime max 128x128?
Please help me and ping me if you’ve anwsered.

[spiral mural]

hey, how can I handle custom skulls? like using minecraft-heads or whatever. like how do you get a texture from the value provided by heads eyJ0ZXh0dXJlcyI6eyJTS0lOIjp7InVybCI6Imh0dHA6Ly90ZXh0dXJlcy5taW5lY3JhZnQubmV0L3RleHR1cmUvODQ4YTRjMzg1ZTNiNDMzM2NlN2IwOGY1NWI0NGUwZjZlNjBiOTc1MDZjOTdjYmYzMTkyMzk2ZmZiZWJmOTk2MyJ9fX0=?

this is how far I got ``` private ItemStack getSkull(ItemStack item) {
if(item.getType() == Material.PLAYER_HEAD) {
SkullMeta meta = (SkullMeta) item.getItemMeta();

    }
    return null;
}``` not sure how specifically to get the custom value in there.

[warm steppe]

If You are using triumph-gui:

ItemStack skull = ItemBuilder.skull().texture("eyJ0ZXh0dXJlcyI6eyJTS0lOIjp7InVybCI6Imh0dHA6Ly90ZXh0dXJlcy5taW5lY3JhZnQubmV0L3RleHR1cmUvMzU3NDcwMTBkODRhYTU2NDgzYjc1ZjYyNDNkOTRmMzRjNTM0NjAzNTg0YjJjYzY4YTQ1YmYzNjU4NDAxMDVmZCJ9fX0=").build();

                int entityId = event.getPacket().getIntegers().read(0);


           }

because the packet doesn't propose it

and I can't use async with bukkit

and even if I could

it lose speed

I need it to stay async

[spiral mural]

wut? why would I use a GUI API intended for something else to do one thing? makes no sense at all.

[royal hedge]

cuz
bukkit inventory api 👎
(most) gui libraries 👍

basically the bukkit api doesnt expose any api for setting the texture of a skull (afaik) so unless u wanna interface with nms directly use some library

Any idea why morphia doesn't support List<String> types? I mean, in theory it should, but idk why, it isn't saving in the mongodb, which is causing it, when I fetch it, to not get the object since the constructor contains that...

the field is simply not present in the mongodb doc

unsure why...

[royal hedge]

you have to use an array (cuz morphia is shit apparently) https://github.com/MorphiaOrg/morphia/blob/c2035ed0d9efee508731209d867fff6c2d903eae/core/src/main/java/dev/morphia/mapping/codec/MorphiaTypesCodecProvider.java#L43-L49

What was a better way of formatting a number? It was brought up before but can't remeber.

    if(amount < 1000000L ) { return format(amount/1000L)+" kH"; }

    if(amount < 1000000000000L ) { return format(amount/1000000000L)+" GH"; }
    if(amount < 1000000000000000L ) { return format(amount/1000000000000L)+" Th"; }
    if(amount < 1000000000000000000L ) { return format(amount/1000000000000000L)+" PH"; }
    return String.valueOf((double) amount);

[hoary scarab]

👍 will look into it in a bit thx.

[minor summit]

CompactNumberFormat moment

[sterile hinge]

TRUE

[minor summit]

I used it recently for some custom units

it was pretty epic

and if you're lucky you don't even need a formatter altogether and use the correct format pattern!

[minor summit]

except for the fact it isn't thread safe which is absolute bonkers

[fading stag]

Is it a costly process?

[sterile hinge]

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    NumberFormat.getCompactNumberInstance(Locale.US, NumberFormat.Style.SHORT);
    CompactNumberFormat format = new CompactNumberFormat("#,###.00", DecimalFormatSymbols.getInstance(Locale.US), buildFormat("H", "kH", "MH", "GH", "Th", "PH"));
    format.setMinimumFractionDigits(2);
    format.setMaximumFractionDigits(2);
    System.out.println(format.format(1.0));
    System.out.println(format.format(1234567890000000000.0));
  }

  private static String[] buildFormat(String... suffixes) {
    String[] result = new String[suffixes.length * 3];
    for (int i = 0; i < suffixes.length; i++) {
      String suffix = suffixes[i];
      for (int j = 1; j <= 3; j++) {
        result[i * 3 + j - 1] = "0".repeat(j) + " " + suffix;
      }
    }
    return result;
  }

I don't understand why the decimal pattern is ignored and you have to set the fraction digits yourself but that's indeed pretty simple I guess

[minor summit]

I don't remember setting a pattern lol

oh I am very silly, I put them in the compact patterns

ah that's what the javadoc show lmao

[hoary scarab]

Seems like a lot more then just the if statements

[minor summit]

it, uh, it isn't ??

[sterile hinge]

the most complex part is to set up the compactPatterns, I did it with a method because otherwise you have a long ass array of strings in your code

but other than that, it seems pretty simple

but I guess counting zeroes to see if you got it right is fun

[hoary scarab]

I'll check it out when I can.

I think the way I had in mind might be a bit simpler though...

An array of suffixes then just check the length divided by 3 and get that index in the array.

Don't really need the decimal format

hi everyone. I'm having a gradle issue again

the file is saved as UTF-8

it does fix it if I switch to using the \u00A7 notation

I have tried setting options.encoding = "UTF-8" in all JavaCompile tasks

the javadocs also have that issue but first of all I'd like to get it compiled without this stupid workaround lol

fixed it. had to do configureEach { on the tasks.withType<...>

[sterile hinge]

If you‘re fine with that rounding mode, yeah

But I don’t see how this is simpler than the proper tool

[sleek wedge]

The mob canno't move, but can attack, need help to find solution.

guardian.setAI(false);
so the mob doesn't move, but the guardian like that doesn't attack.

for (Guardian guardian : guardians) {
                    for (Player player : guardian.getWorld().getPlayers()) {
                        if (player.getLocation().distance(guardian.getLocation()) <= 15) {
                            guardian.setTarget(player);
                        }
                    }
                }

i did using even an custom task for checking if the player is in 15 block range and make it as target, but that doesn't work either, any ideas?

[hoary scarab]

In the one you showed its looping and has more lines. So in my opinion, mine is the cleaner option.

[sterile hinge]

The loop isn’t relevant for the formatting itself, you can simply hardcode it or whatever

And now count arithmetic operations and branching in the code actually relevant for the formatting

[hoary scarab]

Well for simplicity my code did exactly what I wanted. But for future projects I'll keep CompactNumberFormat in mind.

[dense drift]

ok CompactNumberFormat is very cool actually

[signal grove]

best way to check if an inventory has room for a list of itemstacks before actually putting them in?

maybe i could copy the inventory, try adding them all to the copy, and check if the returned hashmap is empty?

public boolean hasRoomFor(Inventory inventory, ItemStack[] items)
    {
        Inventory invCopy = copyInv(inventory);
        HashMap<Integer, ItemStack> leftOvers = invCopy.addItem(items);
        return leftOvers.size() == 0;
    }

[river solstice]

well, theres .firstEmpty() I think

it will return first empty slot else -1

if no empty slot, then loop over the inventory and look for the item, check if added amount doesnt exceed the max item amount

[signal grove]

i want to check if there's room for a list of itemstacks, not just 1

i could do that way for each item, but then i'd have to find "similar" itemstacks for each one that can be combined

it's probably what inventory.addItem(ItemStack...) does anyways, but i trust the builtin to be better than what i can implement

[dense drift]

leftOvers.isEmpty()

[signal grove]

right, will change that

[vapid island]

Does anyone know how to cancel a task timer inside of the task timer itself?

[hoary scarab]

#dev-general is probably a better channel. Just kidding.

If it's within the BukkitRunnable you can use cancel() if not use Bukkit.getScheduler().cancelTask(id)

[vapid island]

I don't know what the id is and whenever I assign the runnable to int id or BukkitRunnable or anything it claims I cannot because it returns void

[hoary scarab]

new BukkitRunnable() {
    public void run() {
        cancel()
    }
}.runTaskTimer(<JavaPlugin>, 0, 1);

BukkitTask task = Bukkit.getScheduler().scheduleTaskTimer(() -> {
    task.cancel();
}, 0, 1);
```I'm not on PC so the second one might need to be adjusted

[dense drift]

You can not reference the variable you assign a value to in that function

[icy shadow]

BukkitTask task = null;
task = Bukkit.getScheduler().scheduleTaskTimer(() -> {
    task.cancel();
}, 0, 1);
``` should work

but the Consumer<BukkitTask> method clears

[sterile hinge]

Variable used in lambda expression should be final or effectively final

you add an inheritancenode to the user's node map

    }, 0, 1);
}

[sterile hinge]

I wouldn't consider that great code tbh

the scheduling api from folia is far better there imo

or make a class that extends BukkitTask and then you can call cancel() in run()

not, if uuid is nullable i think

it says

However, if you use the INSERT IGNORE statement, the rows with invalid data that cause the error are ignored and the rows with valid data are inserted into the table.

I am doing some API requests with Completable Futures, and it is a pain in the ass. I have some code and I am trying to complete the completables and it just isnt registering. Here is the code: https://paste.helpch.at/eyehevihew.java

I want to open a GUI after the api request has been completed

so I am using complete() once a value is returned, and thenAccept() to open the GUI, but it isnt working.

Is there something I am doing wrong?

[dense drift]

I dont see you handling any errors, if the request couldn't be completed then the future is empty, isn't it?

[icy shadow]

Yeah that will go badly if any exceptions happen, it will just silently do nothing

You should use whenComplete rather than thenAccept in your “final” call, and then handle the exception if it’s present

[somber gale]

I want to make a SLP migrator for my plugin.... Thing is that I can't think of a proper system to convert the format SLP uses into mine...
Like, SLP uses this:

Default:
  Description:
    - |-
      Line 1
      Line 2
    - |-
      Line A
      Line B

which in my plugin would be this.

profiles:
  - motd:
      - Line 1
      - Line 2
  - motd:
      - Line A
      - Line B

not to mention the countless other options which allow single and multiple entries...
Has someone ever made a migrator for SLP?

[icy shadow]

create 2 ASTs (one for each syntax) and the conversion should be pretty trivial

By ASTs I mean typed, class representations of the data’s structure

Hardest bit will be turning the multiline string into a list, and even that is only 1 line

[somber gale]

Not quite sure how such an AST would look like.... Tho, maybe configurate could be helpful here... I already have a serializer to turn my own configuration into relevant options, so maybe I can do something similar here...

Biggest problem I have to look at in the future is to convert colours in SLP.... It uses this strange MineDown syntax that is just awful to look at... And I would need to convert that into the MiniMessage format my plugin uses to make it work.

[icy shadow]

tbh you can literally just turn this into 2 lists

parse the SLP stuff into a List<List<String>>, then you already have it in the same format as your yaml

unless of course, this is a small part of the overall problem

[somber gale]

There are also int lists. Like for max player count

[icy shadow]

put it all into a class then

// or write class version if necessary
record SLPConfig(List<List<String>> motds, List<Integer> maxPlayerCountEtc){}```

Hey! I have an issue with my kits plugin...
When a player who HAS permission, and is NOT on a cooldown tries to access a kit, they dont get the item(s) added to their inventory. I put in debug messages, and everything seems to be fine. If anyone can help me out, I'd really appreciate it 😄

does your debug print the Granting kit items to player for

[small arrow]

No. I only get these messages:

[11:31:35 INFO]: [KitGUI] Adding kit item to inventory: kit2
[11:31:35 INFO]: [KitGUI] Player has permission and is not on cooldown for kit2

[grim oasis]

hmm

maybe add a few more debug around grantkit method

also, it might just be me: but I find it odd that you create new Kit objects every time the command is run

instead of creating them upon server start

to me, it looks like it would be impossible to be actually "on cooldown" because every time you run the command it creates a new Kit, with an empty list of cooldownPlayers

wait

[small arrow]

true i didnt even realize that 😂

i just noticed

yes

no i dont get that message

[grim oasis]

add more debugs to your onInventoryClick method

you are creating a brand new kit when doing that

when running findKitByDisplayName

you make a new Kit

inital issue ?

where

why not just do return response.thenApply(HttpResponse::body).thenApply(body -> all the stuff) instead of creating a new future

might not fix the issue but certainly simpler

For some people its easier typing what is in there Head at the moment, I do it to 😄

hello looking for someone assistance splitting a CSV file at every comma, unless the comma is encased in double quotes, for example a,b,c,d,"e,f,g",h,i,"j,k" should split to a b c d e,f,g h i j,k

I suspect regex will be the best way to do this

[grim oasis]

@umbral stone (?<!"[^"]),(?![^"]")

[umbral stone]

thankyou!!

[grim oasis]

test it out

https://i.imgur.com/SVQ62uo.jpeg

took me a while, but it should work!

https://regexr.com/7krq6

[sterile hinge]

regex is never the best way to do something tbh

Hand writing the code is basically always faster and often easier to understand

[nimble vale]

any spring related minecraft project ideas?

wanna learn the framework

i just need some examples to make sense of it

[icy shadow]

Make hangar 2

Also known as spigot 3

Also known as dev.bukkit.org 4

[worn jasper]

challenge accepted

[nimble vale]

there is also modrinth

which looks quite nice

[dense drift]

Which are the other 2? 🤣
Spigot and what else

[icy shadow]

spigot, hangar, the hypothetical new one

[hoary scarab]

👋

Just not using spring or anything really lol

[icy shadow]

You may come to regret that

[hoary scarab]

🤷 I just like doing things from scratch.

It's fun to work out how to do things for myself and when it's achieved usually feels better then using a lib/api.

How would I get/generate a random "player"? (Basically nick, uuid and skin) from an existing player that never played in the server. For context, to make a random disguise plugin (picks a random nick & skin)

[somber gale]

Looking for feedback on this PR. Especially regarding Configurate handling as I'm not sure if that is the bes solution here....

[signal grove]

Is there still an API for namemc or something? You could maybe cache the latest name changes and pick a random one or something

Or look for massive lists of old names, I’m sure they’re out there somewhere

[dusky harness]

They're looking for one that can send like the skin change packets

I think

Since namemc api was already mentioned

[worn jasper]

I am actually specifically looking for a way to generate random nicks and skins rn, preferably from players that exist but haven't played in the server (avoid people discovering they are disguised by just searching the name on namemc lol)

@signal grove @dusky harness

[dusky harness]

oh what-
you gotta be specific

[worn jasper]

yeah my bad

xD

have issues expressing myself

[signal grove]

Ahh how would searching the name give away that they’re a disguise, since legit players are on there too

[dusky harness]

I'm not sure if that's possible
there's no official way though

and because of ratelimits you might not even be able to spam mojang api with random usernames 🥲

[signal grove]

Me trying to find a new name for my account

Maybe you could go for “popular skins” and then somehow query for players using those skins

[dusky harness]

namemc seems to use strict cloudflare though so you prob can't use that

[worn jasper]

Hmm okay, thanks

[serene cairn]

Bump

[sterile hinge]

you shouldn't rely on default serialization of objects you don't have control over (in this case, ItemStack)

but generally, it likely doesn't make much sense to write a json string into your database

[serene cairn]

what should I do then?

[dense drift]

Items are usually serialized as base64 from what ive seen, there's no real need to save it on a human readable format like json

[minor summit]

not even base64, just save it as a blob

[dense drift]

oh or that

[serene cairn]

how long/big (in terms of number of char) can a base64 serialization of hashmap<integer, itemstack> with like atleast 40 items that all have like 3 enchantments?

just a rough guess

[minor summit]

just save it as a BLOB, the raw bytes
https://jd.papermc.io/paper/1.20/org/bukkit/inventory/ItemStack.html#serializeAsBytes()
https://jd.papermc.io/paper/1.20/org/bukkit/inventory/ItemStack.html#deserializeBytes(byte[])

[dense drift]

^ better if you are using paper

[serene cairn]

which is better, base64 or blob

from past experiences n stuff

[minor summit]

there is no reason to use base64 if the data store supports saving raw bytes directly

[serene cairn]

alright

[modern thunder]

compileOnly("me.clip:placeholderapi:2.11.4")

No erros, but can't find me.clip package xD

Can't import anything

[fading stag]

Did you reload gradle after adding that

[modern thunder]

Of course, I'm not a newbie. Tried also to reload all dependencies

[pulsar ferry]

Did you add the repo?

[modern thunder]

Don't ask me why, deleting gradle cache fixed it

[fading stag]

Similar things sometimes happen to me too, I change the version for example make it 2.11.0 reload gradle, change again and reload again

[modern thunder]

Really can't understand how gradle has these kind of problems

[light pendant]

the IDE couldn't find it, or gradle itself wouldn't compile?

because IJ itself choking up sometimes is pretty normal unfortunately

[errant kite]

so i have some hud that i can not use with shaders they have their own shaders, would it be possible for someone who worked on shaders be able to implement the shaders from the hud into a custom client side shader

[formal crane]

When i add a recipe to minecraft like this, do i still need to remove the recipe in the ondisable? Or is it just a temporary cache

[proud pebble]

it gets wiped on server closure, so you dont have to get rid of it, even if it wasnt temporary, more then likely spigot wouldve made a patch to clear all custom recipes from the game before hand

[formal crane]

oh thank you 🙂

[nimble vale]

i dont have enough knowledge but you may need to merge them manually because of conflicts

if you find someone to do something like that you can offer players merged ones

just an idea if you fail

[worn jasper]

Could anyone help me out here? Getting this basically spammed in the console: https://paste.helpch.at/jusaqesoke.rb
Using morphia, shading and relocating it, made a clean build, unsure what's causing it, tried adding a custom ClusterListener to disable the DefaultServerMonitor settings which is what is apparently causing this (stackoverflow says), didn't work though...

[glass oar]

heyo heyo

I'm making a simple plugin for a friends-only server, stuff is broken LOL

https://paste.helpch.at/idofojodim.java

none of the effects work at all, all the events have the eventhandler tag and they're being registered.

could it be that uuid's just don't work for this? If anyone would be able to help me out with this then I'd be greatful!

[river solstice]

Just use names at this point

[glass oar]

using DisplayNames or just normal Names?

(Also don't mind my spaghetti code, I'm still relatively new)

[astral mauve]

I think you should call .toString then check equality. You are checking if a UUID object equals a String object which is false

[glass oar]

oh my god

actual life saver

thank you!!

[astral mauve]

np

[worn jasper]

Just checked and the mongodb driver is def. in the jar, so no idea what's happening, if anyone has any ideas, quite desperate rn

[river solstice]

ah lol didnt catch my eye

though the IDE should definitely show a warning there

[rich lance]

it does

[rich lance]

yeah so since this is pretty niche you could use player names instead and they’d be easier to read

Try to set all your names as constants so it’s a bit cleaner

[glass oar]

alr

thanks

[rich lance]

and maybe a switch statement

google all those if you don’t know

[rich lance]

What’s the point in starting a repeating task every time a player joins?

[glass oar]

OH FUCK

[rich lance]

it’s not any different so you could maybe just make 1 task when your plugin starts up

[glass oar]

whoops

still

[rich lance]

lol chill

[glass oar]

I didn't mean to do it on join LOL

[rich lance]

Mis clicked mb

[rich lance]

yeah might wanna get rid of that

[dark garnet]

just a little suggestion, use statics for the uuids so that u know who each one is 🙃

[rich lance]

yeah I said that up

[dark garnet]

o

[glass oar]

but then again

I have variables that use their names

like short versions of their names

[rich lance]

it would be all caps

[dark garnet]

constants r ca-

ur too fast A1

[rich lance]

gotta get faster

[dark garnet]

😠

[glass oar]

does it matter?

:trolley:

[rich lance]

no but if you don’t want spaghetti code then yes

[glass oar]

I want spaghet

[dark garnet]

u can just create a player variable at the beginning of the event (would make code cleaner too)

[rich lance]

your choice truly

[rich lance]

Theres a lot that can be done tbh

I would personally move most of it in a config

[dark garnet]

💀

[dark garnet]

same, but if its not for production it doesnt rly matter

[rich lance]

yeah true

[glass oar]

please remember that this is for a private smp

[dark garnet]

ye

[glass oar]

that I'm hosting for my friends LOL

[rich lance]

make an abstract object hierarchy inheritance structure for Minecraft effect plugin

[dark garnet]

i would 100% create a player and uuid variable

[rich lance]

Now.

[dark garnet]

cause every time u check the uuid ur re-getting the player & their uuid

also u could store the potion effects as constants

[rich lance]

that’d probably be ugly I don’t think he reuses them much anyway

[dark garnet]

well they're being re-used every 10 ticks no?

[rich lance]

yeah well that’s a mistake lmao

On every join

[dark garnet]

i thought the repeating task was correct but not on join

[rich lance]

idk anymore

Perhaps

[dark garnet]

we can just wait for new correct code ig

Hey, i am currently using the XSeries library wich makes adding multiple verion support 3x as easy.

There is one problem i have tho, when i retrieve an itemstack from the config using the XItemStack.deserialize() function it puts a different nbt on it then minecraft does so it becomes a different item than was orginially put in, here is a screenshot of the nbt view.

Also here is the full code: https://github.com/RazerStorm/CustomCrafting

How would i fix this issue?

(Fixed it temporarly, still need this fixed because its a better way.)

[dark garnet]

i was gonna say to ask wherever xseries support is given, but u already have 🙃

[dark garnet]

the top one is correct and the bottom is incorrect right?

and how did u temporarily fix it?

[dark garnet]

hey no advertising

[formal crane]

yes

[formal crane]

by just using regular itemstacks and not the XItemStack system

[dark garnet]

i'd look into the source code of XSeries to see where it applies the extra part and such

and double-check javadocs

[pulsar ferry]

Instead of using xitemstack (i don't even know what this does, last time I used it this wasn't a thing I think?) use xmaterial then do parseItem and set the name there, you'd still keep the backwards compat and the name would probably be the same

Though why does it matter if the name component is different?

It should display the same

[river solstice]

maybe just dont use xseries

[formal crane]

because it can't stack otherwise, i need the items to be exactly the same as before

[dense drift]

Use your own (de)serialization logic then

[stuck canopy]

If you want the netherrack to drop then either stop cancelling the event or manually drop netherrack using Word#dropItemNaturally

[spiral mural]

can you do this? contain location?

    public void interact(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
        Block block = event.getClickedBlock();
        if(block != null) {
            List<Location> locations = cookIt.getBlocks().getLocations();
            if(locations == null || locations.isEmpty()) {
                return;
            }

            if(!locations.contains(block.getLocation())) {
                return;
            }


        }
    }``` or do I have to match the cordinates like x,yz, world etc. ?

[sterile hinge]

contains on a list isn't a great idea to begin with

but if all locations are block coordinates, it might work

[proud pebble]

the real question is what exactly the list of locations are doing?

like why a list of locations

[spiral mural]

it's going to open a gui. sort of like an interactive block in spawn @proud pebble. am making a custom cooking thing

[proud pebble]

just to speed it up a bit and not check every block of these cooking stations over the entire world, you could save them per chunk, then check the loaded stations of that chunk

[spiral mural]

it's just going to be set a few predetermined places , don't really need more than 1 but want the option for a few more only.

[proud pebble]

ah, then if theres only gunna be a couple you dont have to do the per chunk thing

[spiral mural]

ok, but are there better ways of doing this simply? rather than checking every? is there a different event or method?

[proud pebble]

not really

simply looping through the list and finding one that matches works pretty well

which is exactly what contains does

[river solstice]

keep in mind that "contains" will check yaw/pitch too

[proud pebble]

you could probably speed it up by doing the check for the parts you care about yourself, such as just the world, x,y,z and then dont care about the yaw and pitch since for block locations they would be 0 anyways

[spiral mural]

will it speed it up cause I will need to dig into the for loop or stream to catch those specifics also from the location list?

[signal grove]

best way to clear enchants from an ItemStack?

itemStack.getEnchantments().clear();

apparently the map is immutable

so that doesnt work

i guess i have to just change the meta then

[dusky harness]

Get enchants, remove using removeEnchantment

[unkempt prairie]

ItemStack item = new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND_SWORD); // Replace with your desired item
ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
meta.getEnchants().keySet().forEach(meta::removeEnchant);
item.setItemMeta(meta);

[signal grove]

weird

[dusky harness]

You don't even need meta

[signal grove]

yeah i can use regular getEnchantmants

[unkempt prairie]

Chat GPT answer

[dusky harness]

I assume that was from chagpt

Yeah

[signal grove]

tf does removeEnchant do if its immutable, just overwrite it?

[dusky harness]

No the get Enchantments map is immutable so that there doesn't have to be a custom map

[signal grove]

ah

[dusky harness]

It's just a regular HashMap (or similar)

Doesn't send packets or anything (to clarify what I meant by "custom map")

[signal grove]

i'll go with itemStack.getEnchantments().keySet().forEach(itemStack::removeEnchantment);

[somber gale]

Am I missunderstanding something or doing something wrong?
A user reports that the capitalization option of my expansion is returning the whole text uppercase....
Not sure what in the code could be wrong here.

    @Override
    public String parse(String raw, String option, String... values){
        if(values.length == 1){
            return values[0].toUpperCase(Locale.ROOT);
        }
        
        String str;
        boolean strict = false;
        if(values[0].equalsIgnoreCase("!strict!")){
            strict = true;
            str = String.join("_", Arrays.copyOfRange(values, 1, values.length));
        }else{
            str = String.join("_", values);
        }
        
        return str.substring(0, 1).toUpperCase(Locale.ROOT) + (strict ? 
            str.substring(1).toLowerCase(Locale.ROOT) :
            str.substring(1));
    }

[dusky harness]

a user
Have you tested it yourself? Or unable to right now

[somber gale]

Haven't tested yet and they tried it with the strict option (So %formatter_text_capitalize_!strict!_testing% in their case and that works as expected

[dusky harness]

If values is of size 1,it appears that itll just make the whole string uppercase

Strict prob works bc it makes the length more than 1

[somber gale]

I think it's more the toLowercase?

[dusky harness]

No what I mean is that if there's only 1 "param" (ex testing) then it'll return TESTING

[somber gale]

Makes no sense because I use substring

[signal grove]

before substring - the very first condition

[somber gale]

Ah.... Yeah

That's from before I added the strict thing.... 😓

[signal grove]

also, how many values can there be

it seems like you should want strict to be handled even if its not the first value

but you check if only value[0] is strict

[somber gale]

That's because the placeholder is either %formatter_text_capitalize_<text>% or %formatter_text_capitalize_!strict!_<text>%

I made it like that on purpose

[signal grove]

ah, then the values array is either empty {}, or a single string {"!strict!"}

maybe i misunderstand

[somber gale]

It shouldn't be empty.... Actually, should add a safety check for that

[signal grove]

oh i see - its the values after "capitalize"

are raw and option used?

[somber gale]

Not for capitalize.

Raw is the full, untranslated placeholder and option the second word of the placeholder (Splitting at _), so in this case would it be capitalize

Like, the placeholder follows a specific structure (With one exception): %formatter_<type>_<option>_<values>%
It first goes through the types (text or number) and then calls that type's own parse method, which itself cycles through the available options.
The only exception to this is the from-to number placeholder that has the %formatter_number_from:<time>_to:<time>_<value>% pattern, which goes against the normal pattern. It's also why option is passed.

[river solstice]

blud just use apache commons StringUtils.capitalize

[proud pebble]

lets say i have an array with a size of 10, and i have a counter that keeps track of the current loop iteration, if i want to use the number as an offset for which part of thr array to start on and to loop through the entire list, could i do counter & 10

[sterile hinge]

I don't understand what you're describing but it doesn't sound like you want a bitwise and

[proud pebble]

i believe that would the force whatever value is inputted to show up as a range between 0 and 9

[sterile hinge]

no

or well, kind of, but not the full range

[proud pebble]

like if the number was 10 for example, it would become 0

[sterile hinge]

1 & 10 is 0 for example

you want modulo if you just want to wrap around at 10

[proud pebble]

i dont, just want it to range between 0 and 9 since the array size is 10

[icy shadow]

modulo

[sterile hinge]

that sounds like you want to wrap around 10

[proud pebble]

i just wanted to use whatever value the counter currently is to get the placement in the list but wanted it to wrap around

[icy shadow]

yes that is literally what modulo does

[proud pebble]

ive seen the bitwise and used to convert BlockPos to the relative block position in chunk section

[sterile hinge]

yes, but that only works in cases of n = 2^m, then you can write value & (n - 1)

in that case the lower m bits are all set to 1 so you cut off everything above

[proud pebble]

ic so the bitwise works for anything that would be a power of 2 and for everything else use modulo

[sterile hinge]

there is one more subtle difference: negative values

& in such case works like Math.floorMod

[proud pebble]

afaik the counter should never been a negative number so thats not a massive issue

[sterile hinge]

yeah if it overflows you probably have other issues

[proud pebble]

i dont think the counter should ever overflow, cus its just being used for an inventory animation

the array is just for chest inventory positions going in a circle on the outer edges in a 5x5 grid

tho thats an array of 16 ints rather then 10

i wanted those slots to change to the itemstacks that were in the slots behind it and i thought of looping through the array of positions + the current counter as an offset but that value should wrap around,
0,1,2,3,4
1,2,3,4,0
2,3,4,0,1
etc

ill just use modulo

i wouldve just tested it to see if it gave the results i wanted, just not at home to test it and was wondering if the method before wouldve worked for non ^2 bitwise values

[spiral prairie]

How would I add attributes to a chestplate for example, and make it only for when on body and how would i remove the attributes later?

if the player is banned forever, you could just put the value or date as -1, and then check if the banned player's date is is equal to or below -1 and then just not do it

also if no time is specified you could automatically banned them for time -1 which is forever

its also possible that LocalDateTime.of is just returning an invalid number due to how its saved

Does someone know if Path.resolve(String) in Java is case-sensitive or if it would find anything that matches the provided path?
Only thing I found so far is, that File stuff can be case-sensitive, but it depends on the OS (i.e. on Windows it's case-insensitive but on Linux it is case-sensitive), so I'm not sure here...

If it is case-sensitive... Is there a way to make it ignore case? I want to resolve the path of a plugin folder, but on velocity are plugin-folders lowercased, so if it is case-sensitive and there is no way to ignore it, I would need to make a separate check just for that....

[minor summit]

why not get the plugin folder from the platform instead of manually resolving to it?

getDataFolder on bukkit/bungee, inject the path on velocity etc

btw i never even use the Flag class, only StateFlag (but StateFlag does extend Flag)

[void orchid]

Because you're referring to something that does not exist, which is all Worldguard related code. If I am not mistaken, ClassNotFoundException will immediately be thrown once, whatever the class that code resides in, is loaded. It's not even reaching that code you linked, it's failing due to the imports which isn't available in the classpath (hence why you couldn't catch it). What you could do instead is relocate Worldguard-related code elsewhere, and only refer to that new class when you verified that Worldguard is available

[dark garnet]

imports can cause that?

i thought they didnt

[void orchid]

I added more info in my edit, but yes. If you're pointing to a class that is not available on runtime, it should from my understanding

[dark garnet]

just removed the imports and did this instead:

// Register WorldGuard flag
try {
    final com.sk89q.worldguard.WorldGuard instance = com.sk89q.worldguard.WorldGuard.getInstance();
    final com.sk89q.worldguard.protection.flags.StateFlag flag = new com.sk89q.worldguard.protection.flags.StateFlag("limited-lives", true);
    instance.getFlagRegistry().register(flag);
    worldGuard = new WorldGuardObjects(com.sk89q.worldguard.bukkit.WorldGuardPlugin.inst(), instance.getPlatform().getRegionContainer(), flag);
} catch (final NoClassDefFoundError ignored) {
    // Ignored
} catch (final RuntimeException e) {
    log(Level.WARNING, "&cFailed to register WorldGuard flag!");
}
```still getting the same error tho

[void orchid]

you're still referring to something that is not available

[dark garnet]

then it'd throw NoClassDefFoundError and be ignored

[void orchid]

no, it would only do that if an error occurred due to that code being executed

[dark garnet]

also yeah imports dont cause exceptions, i have the same sort of thing in my api

[void orchid]

I don't have a deep understanding of how class loading works, but I did give you the solution

[dark garnet]

but it is due to that code, no?
it tries to get the WorldGuard class, if it doesnt exist, it should throw NoClassDefFoundError which is then caught by the try-catch, and ignored, which stops the rest of the code in that try-catch from executing

also weird how it says its cause of the Flag class when WorldGuard comes before it

[void orchid]

it is due to the code, but it didn't get the chance to execute because it's failing immediately once an attempt is made to load the class. If you were right, then the error would have a reference to that code you linked, but it doesn't. Check your stacktrace

It's actually pointing to PluginClassLoader#loadClass

[dark garnet]

just commented out the flag lines, so it's just this:

try {
    final WorldGuard instance = WorldGuard.getInstance();
} catch (final NoClassDefFoundError ignored) {
    // Ignored
} catch (final RuntimeException e) {
    log(Level.WARNING, "&cFailed to register WorldGuard flag!");
}
```error doesnt occur, this doesnt make sense 😭

why is it failing when it tries to load the class?!

[void orchid]

wait what

[dark garnet]

i think i know

and its the most

obvious thing

nope nvm i lied

this works:

try {
    final WorldGuard instance = WorldGuard.getInstance();
    final StateFlag flag = new StateFlag("limited-lives", true);
    //instance.getFlagRegistry().register(flag);
    worldGuard = new WorldGuardObjects(WorldGuardPlugin.inst(), instance.getPlatform().getRegionContainer(), flag);
} catch (final NoClassDefFoundError ignored) {
    // Ignored
} catch (final RuntimeException e) {
    log(Level.WARNING, "&cFailed to register WorldGuard flag!");
}

FlagRegistry.register(StateFlag) must be throwing it

[void orchid]

You have WorldGuard installed?

[dark garnet]

no

[void orchid]

interesting

[dark garnet]

so i have no idea how its getting passed the first 2 lines

actually it isnt even

cause i added debug msgs before the try-catch and they werent logged

[void orchid]

ahhh

[dark garnet]

heres all the code btw: https://github.com/srnyx/limited-lives/blob/master/src/main/java/xyz/srnyx/limitedlives/LimitedLives.java
the catches r different tho, and i use my api so it might be a tad confusing

[void orchid]

Thanks! I would still recommend you to give my solution a try, it should work in your case

[dark garnet]

i dont think i can

the flag has to be registered before worldguard loads

Registering has to be done before WorldGuard is enabled. Thus, it is highly recommended that you register when your plugin loads. After WorldGuard is enabled, the FlagRegistry is locked and no new flags can be registered.

[void orchid]

There's an onLoad method, and you could use Bukkit.getPluginManager().getPlugin("WorldEdit") != null to check whether the plugin is present on the server

[dark garnet]

wont it only be returned if that plugin is loaded/enabled tho?

[void orchid]

I checked, and not according to this thread: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/how-to-check-if-a-plugin-is-installed-before-it-is-enabled.529259/

[dark garnet]

Checks if the given plugin is loaded and returns it when applicable

hmmm

ill try it

[dark garnet]

enables*

think that may be the solution 🤞

[void orchid]

Yeah

[dusky harness]

btw
I'm pretty sure it'd be ClassNotFoundException, and NoClassDefFoundError is used for something else (not sure tho, would have to google it)

[dark garnet]

NoClassDefFoundError:

Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine or a ClassLoader instance tries to load in the definition of a class (as part of a normal method call or as part of creating a new instance using the new expression) and no definition of the class could be found.
The searched-for class definition existed when the currently executing class was compiled, but the definition can no longer be found.

[dusky harness]

then theres also like MethodNotFoundException

[dark garnet]

ClassNotFoundException:

Thrown when an application tries to load in a class through its string name using:

• The forName method in class Class.
• The findSystemClass method in class ClassLoader.
• The loadClass method in class ClassLoader.

[dusky harness]

🤷 maybe its classnotfound for reflection? would have to test, not sure

[dark garnet]

so i was using the right one

[dusky harness]

haven't looked at your error either yet

just wanted to point it out in case

[dark garnet]

(it also said it couldnt throw ClassNotFoundException)

[dusky harness]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[dark garnet]

i removed anyways, dont need if im checking if worldguard is installed

omg...

im still getting the error?!?!?

literally hate this thing

if (Bukkit.getPluginManager().getPlugin("WorldGuard") != null) try {
    final WorldGuard instance = WorldGuard.getInstance();
    final StateFlag flag = new StateFlag("limited-lives", true);
    instance.getFlagRegistry().register(flag);
    worldGuard = new WorldGuardObjects(WorldGuardPlugin.inst(), instance.getPlatform().getRegionContainer(), flag);
} catch (final RuntimeException e) {
    log(Level.WARNING, "&cFailed to register WorldGuard flag!");
}

[void orchid]

you're still referring to something that is not available... You need to move that code to a separate class as I pointed out earlier

[dusky harness]

imports shouldn't cause errors though

i thought

[dark garnet]

they dont but hes saying the code

[dusky harness]

anyways i gtg i cant get distracted by discord help

[dark garnet]

but still it shouldnt matter

i do a similar thing with placeholderapi in my api:

papiInstalled = Bukkit.getPluginManager().isPluginEnabled("PlaceholderAPI");
if (papiInstalled) {
    final PlaceholderExpansion expansion = options.registrationOptions.getPapiExpansionToRegister();
    if (expansion != null) expansion.register();
}```

[minor summit]

class loading is not as simple as it seems, consider doing something like

if (isPluginEnabled("WorldGuard")) {
  MyWorldGuardHook.init();
}

or whatever, but moving that logic into another class

[dark garnet]

i hate java im never programming again

it worked

[void orchid]

I keep telling you that but for some reason it wasn't working. Glad it worked out either way

[sullen acorn]

So i have a scoreboard that is enabled with the command /sb, how can i toggle it? So if it's enabled then /sb will disable and vice versa?

[dusky harness]

Is it a global scoreboard or per-player?
Also this is a coding question, not a plugin configuration question, right?

[sullen acorn]

coding i think

[dusky harness]

You think? 🤨

[sullen acorn]

what's the difference

[dusky harness]

What's the plugin name

[sullen acorn]

mzxcraft

it's the main plugin for my minecraft server

[sullen acorn]

ohh, yeah it's coding

i just understood what you mean

[dusky harness]

Did you code it? Or buy it/download it from somewhere

[sullen acorn]

here's the code: https://pastebin.com/CXNYvgFH

[dusky harness]

Ohh ok

[sullen acorn]

code

[dusky harness]

Global or per player?

[sullen acorn]

I also don't know the differnce lol

[dusky harness]

OK either way you'll need a boolean variable to store whether the scoreboard is currently being shown

[sullen acorn]

k

[sullen acorn]

So I have made a custom scoreboard, although i want it to update every set period of time, I've tried using the BukkitScheduler in the onEnable() part of the main file, but i have no idea how to update the scoreboard for players, can someone help?

        scoreboardUpdate.scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(this, new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                
            }
        }, 0L, 60L);```

[proud pebble]

if you want it to update, you just set the scoreboard again

so ig recreate the scoreboard object, then player.setScoreboard(scoreboard)

[warm steppe]

Use fastboard

It supports adventure

[serene cairn]

now i've seen others do this but i've never been able to figure it out. i'm guessing it involves NMS (sending a update to the item and forcing it to show item amount)

so lets say we have an item in a chest inventory that has a amount of 2
(attachment)

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/154927412394590208/1160240028992159825/image.png?ex=6533f0bb&is=65217bbb&hm=94f605906b5aa196a22e2fe0665c172935a7bb61236ae2a7a08fc55c504403e8&

how can i display this but with a amount of 1 while forcing the gui to show the count number on the bottom right of the item?

so like

1

(gray boxes is the icon of chest for example)

this is due to me attempting to make a duel system in 1-2 weeks (going VERY well)

and i've started the queueing system

[grim oasis]

This is a client limitation, you can't

[serene cairn]

i've literally seen others be able to do that

nevermind i was wrong

i'm dumb i thought it said 1 instead of 2

clearly i need to get my eyes checked

[worn jasper]

Is is possible to have a placeholder in my plugin, return another placeholder? Will that placeholder then be parsed by a plugin like TAB?

For context, I want to make it so if X data isn't present, it will default to a placeholder of another plugin.

[proud pebble]

try it and see?

[worn jasper]

Well, if I am asking, it's for a reason, literally on a train rn on my school laptop...

[river solstice]

well, no.
you give a placeholder to TAB, it calls onRequest for your placeholder and you return another, the onRequest was already called, it wont call it again for the returned value. the plugin author would need to implement that functionality.

why return a placeholder and not just parse it and return the value yourself?

[worn jasper]

apparently it does has that functionality

[atomic trail]

Can I not use this API? It's made in Java 16 (class version 60) and my project is in java 8 (class version 52). Yes I know java 8 is bad, don't question it please

What I'm asking is, is it possible to use the API anyway while having the project Java version as 8?

[spiral prairie]

no

i mean there probably is a way but

there is always a way to do something but if it makes sense to do it is the other question

[atomic trail]

Ugh annoying

Well thank you! :))

[stable topaz]

Hello, question: Is there a reason or a way to avoid "'\t" in Bukkit to show a weird character
I need to tabulate a formatted string, but its showing me a weird character

[dusky harness]

that's controlled client-side, why not use spaces?

[stable topaz]

I need a fixed tab between 2 string

[dusky harness]

why not fixed spaces?
the client doesn't know how to render the tab

[stable topaz]

For a custom name, i need all to be fixed and alligned independent of the lenght

[dusky harness]

but whats that have to do with tabs?

[stable topaz]

Does it not work like that?

Like intead of
Hunger: 23
Current Health: 30
Use
Hunger: 23
Current Health: 30

[dusky harness]

I don't think that tabs can do that

[stable topaz]

"%s%-20s" This doesnt do anything either

[brazen rain]

Anybody here good with the FAWE API? I know a little bit of Java and Kotlin, but I don't know much, so I have to hire a custom dev for each plugin I need for my server.

I got a custom plugin developed that makes rounds possible on my server, with a system for different lobbies running at the same time that are all in the same world. To copy the same map every time, FastAsyncWorldEdit is used to copy and paste each "lobby" of sorts in its own plot. The problem is, when these lobbies are created, the servers TPS drops from how big some of the maps are.

I told the dev about this issue and they said that they are not good with the FAWE API and don't know any other easy way to copy the builds over without lag. Any suggestions on this issue? I've thought up a system where the lobbies build is copied in chunks and pasted that way, but I don't know if thats even possible, does anybody know a way this kind of system would be possible without lag?

[dusky harness]

what I've done in the past is generate it over a period of time instead of 1 tick
and also disable physics (ex sand won't fall) which gave pretty good results (although FAWE probably does this automatically)

actually when I did it, I think I did the opposite - removing blocks instead of adding/copying

but same idea

[brazen rain]

Alright, thanks.

[dusky harness]

also note that I haven't used WorldEdit API much, and haven't used FAWE api at all, so I don't know if there's anything built-in etc

but for ex even if you do 2 ticks instead of 1 tick (the time difference is not noticeable), you should basically get 2x less lag (although it'd last for 2x as long)

[forest jay]

Are you actively using the FAWE API?

I have a bit of experiance in it

it is pretty similar to regular World Edit

[brazen rain]

Yes

[forest jay]

I don't know why it would be that laggy, ask the developer to go to their discord and ask for help

[dusky harness]

I would follow a guided example/tutorial first

but you need a { instead of a ;

ok emily

and things that don't have {} usually have ;

[light pendant]

you should read a book about basic java

[spiral prairie]

I don't think that's possible with papi expansions

[formal crane]

So i use this for my custom crafting plugin:
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/RecipeChoice.html

But then i saw this

what does it mean exactly? Like can't i use it anymore?

[icy shadow]

if you're implementing it, thats bad
