development

[torpid raft]

since players are able to change their names

[heady orbit]

ok

well its a short fix

but the whole system is Fcked if i can say so

[sacred nebula]

A few things I noticed:

• You don't have to use replace if it has the key and put otherwise, doing only put will achieve the same functionality regardless

The following:

  if(inventories.containsKey(player.getName() + "_" + world + "_" + "normal")) {
      inventories.replace(player.getName() + "_" + world + "_" + "normal", oldInventory);
  } else {
      inventories.put(player.getName() + "_" + world + "_" + "normal", oldInventory);
  }

can be reduced to this:

inventories.put(player.getName() + "_" + world + "_" + "normal", oldInventory);

• As mode already contains either build or normal you can also use that when specifying the hashmap key (rather than doing an if statement checking the mode type, you could also use an enum for this)

For your specific issue there isn't something immediately wrong I could see--could you share how you're using those three methods?

Can someone help with updating a packet without removing it and adding it back?

another user here sugested I update the packet but that didint work it just didint even show up in the lab list

sorry I am talking about a fake player in a tablist

n = new FakePlayer(new FakePlayerUtil().getNextLetter(s), x.getHealth() + "", true);
        n.getTablistAddPacket().sendPacketOnce(x);
        updateFakePlayer(x);
    }

    @Override
    public void updateFakePlayer(Player player) {
        new BukkitRunnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                if(!player.isOnline()) {
                    this.cancel();
                }
                //add
                n.getTabListUpdateFakePlayer(new FakePlayerUtil().getNextLetter(s), player.getHealth() + "").sendPacketOnce(player); // Update instead of adding or removing
            }
        }.runTaskTimer(MafanaNetwork.getInstance(), 0L, 20L);
    }``` my code at the moment

protected TabListUpdateDisplayNamePacket(UUID uuid, String playerName, String displayText) {
        super(uuid, playerName, displayText);
        WrappedGameProfile gameProfile = new WrappedGameProfile(uuid, playerName);
        PacketContainer packet = getProtocolManager().createPacket(PacketType.Play.Server.PLAYER_INFO);
        setPacket(packet);
        PlayerInfoData data = new PlayerInfoData(FakePlayerPacket.changeGameProfileSkin(gameProfile), 20, EnumWrappers.NativeGameMode.CREATIVE, WrappedChatComponent.fromText(displayText));
        List<PlayerInfoData> infoLists = Collections.singletonList(data);

        EnumSet<EnumWrappers.PlayerInfoAction> actions = EnumSet.noneOf(EnumWrappers.PlayerInfoAction.class);

        actions.add(EnumWrappers.PlayerInfoAction.UPDATE_DISPLAY_NAME);

        packet.getPlayerInfoActions().write(0, actions);
        packet.getPlayerInfoDataLists().write(1, infoLists);
    }```

[heady orbit]

Hi, thanks so much.

To be honest with you, I’ve used enums, but never really understood them before. Currently I have school, so I can’t send you the code, but the best thing I can do right now is first learn enums and then u can show me a way you found using them.

I’ll send the code in around 8 hours when school is finished

[hoary scarab]

By the looks of your code they probably meant cache the PlayerInfoData packet or even PacketContainer, modify it then resend when you update it.

[sonic nebula]

game doesnt detect

when breaking door top?

blockbreakevent doesnt fire even

nvm i found the reason!

nah nvm i didnt ifnd

0 sense

wtf is this

k this time ill also print what block his is

if not door

[river solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/dog-gif-25713443

[sonic nebula]

no no

i need help

[neat pier]

There is no time to wait! Ask your question @sonic nebula!

[sonic nebula]

what the fuck

tell me

should i check for string instead of material?

[sonic nebula]

smelling dog what do you think about it

[river solstice]

dog says its stinky

[sonic nebula]

no no but why doesnt work

ill check ffor string value

200IQ

i break game mechanics his way

if (block.getType().name().contains("WOODEN_DOOR") || block.getType().name().contains("IRON_DOOR")) {😎

still doesnt work

it legit prints

WOODEN_DOOR

[craggy zealot]

can you show me a example i never worked with packets and I tried to stay away as much as I could its been 3 days and I cant figure it out

[icy shadow]

Probably the 1.13 compatibility fuckery fucking something up

[sonic nebula]

it make 0 sense

like even after checking for string it prints

it still don't fire

event fires but its not the same shit as it prints

and it doesnt pass anything

idfk

[heady orbit]

Hi again, this is my usage of the commands. Now the only world its using is lobby, but when i complete the plugin i will replace that with the current world the player is in.

https://pastebin.com/DyePBBNh

[sonic nebula]

devoloper of what r u

wtf is this code not sure if its a troll or not

but please learn java basics

[heady orbit]

dont know if this is a serious answer or only a troll

u are the troll u dont have a big pp just bc u maybe can code "better". So stop trolling and let me learn

[river solstice]

I mean, the code isnt perfect to say the least, there is a lot of room for improvement, I guess it will come with practice, but you really should put more time into learning the OOP/Java basics, if you havent already.

[heady orbit]

its not like i have 3 years of in person training with weekly progress and projects. I wanna have fun coding and dont get a hardcore nerd that feels like the king of the world, because he can say others on a discord server how bad their code is. (not meant towards u btw.)

[hoary scarab]

For example you're methods constantly run getProtocolManager().createPacket(PacketType.Play.Server.PLAYER_INFO);
You should be caching it and modifying it.
Here is a sample class...```java
public class CachedPacket {
public ProtocolContainer packet;
public WrappedGameProfile profile;
public PlayerInfoData data;

public void generateFakePlayer(UUID uuid, String playerName, String displayName) {
    profile = new WrappedGameProfile(uuid, playerName);
    packet = getProtocolManager().createPacket(PacketType.Play.Server.PLAYER_INFO);
}

}

[royal hedge]

bud let em learn

at least be constructive

id also wouldnt be talking cuz the "troll" seems to know more about conventions than you

[heady orbit]

well i know as much as i have learned and that is much in specific areas and not much overall

i like to concrentrate and learn everything in a specific area first and then start learning something new

so ive stopped coding on the old version and tried using a custom class.

Can i just save the PlayerData to a json file and return the json data to the PlayerData custom class if i need to edit it?
And if yes, how would that work. well i know Json.stringify would work, but how to convert it back to json afterwards and then back to the custom class?

[heady orbit]

Hi, ive created this but i see a few problems and am unsure to solve them

https://pastebin.com/5kc9aUrf

1. I can change the world but there is no instance of inventory/buildmode PER world. How it is now i can change the value of world and the others but i want to save inventory/buidmode PER world.
   The json would look somethign like this:

UUID:
"lobbyworld":
buildmode: true
Inventory: Inventory
"citybuild":
buildmode: true
Inventory: Inventory

2. I want there to be 2 inventories, but right now im only saving 1. If the player changes worlds the inventories should also change, but that would mean that i need 2 "slots" in my save file for the inventories. So 1 buildinventory and 1 normalinventory

I appreciate any help and critic, thanks

[hoary scarab]

🤦 Spot the issue...```java
double x = x() - pos.x();
double y = x() - pos.y();
double z = x() - pos.z();

return (xx) + (yy) + (z*z);

[flint kernel]

the repeated x()?

[hoary scarab]

Yeap. Only took me 2 hours xD

[flint kernel]

sounds like my sort of error

[gilded imp]

lol

[hoary scarab]

Do maps keep their order?

[spiral prairie]

Same

[spiral prairie]

They should, but I wouldn't count on it

[hoary scarab]

Yeah having a weird issue where a list keeps its order but the map won't

[spiral prairie]

Lists do, maps should

Maps aren't meant to hold an order of entries

Since it's k/v

[pure crater]

What type of map

[spiral prairie]

Hashmap pretty sure

[hoary scarab]

Normal (not tree)

[pure crater]

A hashmap def does not maintain order

I know that for sure

Tree map should tho

[spiral prairie]

Should it?

[flint kernel]

doesn't a linked map maintain order

[pure crater]

A hashmap never maintains order because it uses order for hashing

A tree map does though

[spiral prairie]

Yeah maybe? Not sure

[hoary scarab]

👍

[spiral prairie]

I've once researched what LinkedMaps are for

I forgor

[pure crater]

Wait

Tree maps don’t guarantee order either

[hoary scarab]

really?

[pure crater]

It only guarantees sorting order I meant

Yeah

[spiral prairie]

What do you need the order for?

Sounds like an xy problem

[hoary scarab]

Yeah like```java
sorted = sorted.entrySet().stream()
.sorted(compare)
.collect(Collectors.toMap(Entry::getKey, Entry::getValue));

[pure crater]

Oh ok

[hoary scarab]

Distance from locations

[spiral prairie]

Then put the distance as the key and sort

[hoary scarab]

I do

[spiral prairie]

When retrieving or when setting

[hoary scarab]

Sorry read that wrong... I have a compare to test distances of the keys

[pure crater]

Isn’t that what he’s doing?

Oh

[spiral prairie]

Now I'm confused

[hoary scarab]

Not exact code;

Map<Location, Data> unsorted = collectLocations();

if(sort) {
    Comparator<Entry<Location, Data>> compare = new Comparator<Entry<Location, Data>>() {
        public int compare(Entry<Location, Data> first, Entry<Location, Data> second) {
            return new Double(first.getKey().distanceSquared(minimum)).compareTo(second.getKey().distanceSquared(minimum));
        }
    };
                                
    return sorted.entrySet().stream()
        .sorted(compare)
        .collect(Collectors.toMap(Entry::getKey, Entry::getValue));
}else {
    return unsorted;
}
```This is basically what I was doing because I thought maps held their order.

[spiral prairie]

Oh

Any reason you aren't doing ArrayList<Pair<Location, Data>>

Or just include the loc in the data itself

[pure crater]

Because he needs to get data from location and he probably doesn’t want to loop

[spiral prairie]

Mh

[hoary scarab]

Map was easier, and dido to pulsebeat lol

[spiral prairie]

Also I'm unsure if it makes sense to compare the distances to 2 locations tbh

[hoary scarab]

I can of course sort it later but was hoping to pass it sorted while it was still async.

Give me a sec

[spiral prairie]

Nvm

[pure crater]

Wdym? All he’s doing is checking which has a closer or farther distance to a fixed Location called “minimum”

[spiral prairie]

I read wrong

Yeah

[hoary scarab]

Unsorted vs sorted

[spiral prairie]

Hmmm

[hoary scarab]

My old method was```java
List<Entry<Location, Data>> sortedEntries = new ArrayList<Entry<Location, Data>>(blockData.entrySet());
if(sort) {
Collections.sort(sortedEntries, new Comparator<Entry<Location, Data>>() {
public int compare(Entry<Location, Data> e1, Entry<Location, Data> e2) {
return new Double(e1.getKey().distanceSquared(minimum)).compareTo(e2.getKey().distanceSquared(minimum));
}
});
}

[blissful plinth]

Hello, I might be blind, but I don't find the Java Docs for the 1.20.0->1.20.3 on https://helpch.at/docs/. I only see LATEST for 1.20.4 version.
I specially need those versions, because if I don't make mistake there was some changments between these versions
Thanks in advance !

[sonic nebula]

Man

The guy says

He codes for 3 years

U don’t probably don’t know me because when someone really needs help I’ll help him and do my best if I do

But when someone seem to not understand starter level shit

No reason to even help

[river solstice]

he says that he isnt coding for 3 years

[graceful hedge]

Mayhaps you just use 1.20.4 instead?

[blissful plinth]

Yes I could, but I there was some additions between 1.20 versions that I cannot ignore and I need the Java Doc 😅

[graceful hedge]

🤨

[blissful plinth]

I didn't understand something ?

[sonic nebula]

Ur right but now when I think about it why I solve other people problems when they can’t help them self in first place

People should first try till failure and only then ask for help

Or ask about API or general questions

Not about their code

In some forums not gonna name them for such a question ur post won’t get posted and u will be banned

[proud pebble]

use the 1.20.4 javadocs, the only difference between 1.20.3 and 1.20.4 is a bug fix that doesnt effecr the api at all

tje bug fixed was to stop decorated pots from being deleted on world reload

[dusky harness]

Iirc 1.20.4 came out like 1 or 2 days after 1.20.3 lol

[blissful plinth]

Thanks but for the 1.20.0 to 1.20.2 the changments isn't just a bugfix 😅

[dusky harness]

Why don't you upgrade directly to 1.20.4? You don't have to update each minor version

You should use the layest version

[blissful plinth]

I make a plugin that support multiple version of Spigot

[dusky harness]

Then you should use the lowest version you want to support

Assuming you're not using nms

Or craftbukkit

[molten venture]

No worries it doesn't make any difference

You can just use 1.20.4

And is more stable than others

[blissful plinth]

There was difference between 1.20.1 and 1.20.4 that I cannot ignore

[dusky harness]

What difference?

[blissful plinth]

TrialSpawner for example

[dusky harness]

Trialspawner?

[blissful plinth]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/block/data/type/TrialSpawner.html

[proud pebble]

what version are you developing for?

[blissful plinth]

I use multiple versions, with maven module I make a module for each version and I check on wich version the server is to use the correct class

[strong canopy]

hey, everyone!
i'm a Reverse Engineering and Full Stack developer.
if you wanna get my help, dm me.

[proud pebble]

tbh id support the latest version thats available at the time for each individually major version and the subversions can just be like if ur not the latest one then suffer

[sterile hinge]

this!

[heady orbit]

This might be a very easy question but i really dont get it. If i wanna create a double chest and put the players inventory onDeath, how to place the double chest. Im trying but it doesnt work..

https://pastebin.com/tsnGyuXT

it places 2 chest next to each other with the same rotation but not connected

[molten venture]

chest1.setBlockData(Material.CHEST.createBlockData("[facing=east,type=right]"));
chest2.setBlockData(Material.CHEST.createBlockData("[facing=east,type=left]"));

[heady orbit]

but thats the exact thing i did in the code too

oh shi

[molten venture]

Sorry

2 locations

Block chest1 = location.getBlock();
Block chest2 = location2.getBlock();

[heady orbit]

i had
Block chest1 = location.getBlock();
Block chest2 = location.getBlock();

yeah

[molten venture]

location2.getBlock

[heady orbit]

incompetence at its best

still the same BS

[molten venture]

@EventHandler
public void onPlayerDeath(PlayerDeathEvent event) {
    Bukkit.broadcastMessage("killed event");
    ItemStack[] items = event.getEntity().getInventory().getContents();

    Player player = event.getEntity();

    Location location = player.getLocation();
    Location location2 = new Location(player.getWorld(), player.getLocation().getX() + 1, player.getLocation().getY(), player.getLocation().getZ());
    location.getBlock().setType(Material.CHEST);
    location2.getBlock().setType(Material.CHEST);

    Block chest1 = location.getBlock();
    Block chest2 = location2.getBlock();

    Chest chest = (Chest) chest1.getState();
    chest.getInventory().setContents(items);
    chest.update();

    chest1.setBlockData(Material.CHEST.createBlockData("[facing=east,type=right]"));
    chest2.setBlockData(Material.CHEST.createBlockData("[facing=east,type=left]"));

    chest1.getState().update();
    chest2.getState().update();
}

[heady orbit]

lets try

2 single chests

i dont know

what are we doing wrong

[molten venture]

can you try one second that:

@EventHandler
public void onPlayerDeath(PlayerDeathEvent event) {
    Bukkit.broadcastMessage("killed event");
    ItemStack[] items = event.getEntity().getInventory().getContents();

    Player player = event.getEntity();

    Location location = player.getLocation();
    Location location2 = new Location(player.getWorld(), player.getLocation().getX() + 1, player.getLocation().getY(), player.getLocation().getZ());

    BlockData chest1Data = Material.CHEST.createBlockData();
    BlockData chest2Data = Material.CHEST.createBlockData();

    ((Directional) chest1Data).setFacing(BlockFace.EAST);
    ((Chest) chest1Data).setType(Type.RIGHT);
    ((Directional) chest2Data).setFacing(BlockFace.EAST);
    ((Chest) chest2Data).setType(Type.LEFT);

    location.getBlock().setBlockData(chest1Data);
    location2.getBlock().setBlockData(chest2Data);

    Chest chest1 = (Chest) location.getBlock().getState();
    chest1.getInventory().setContents(items);
    chest1.update();
}

[heady orbit]

.setType requires material not a type

[hoary scarab]

@EventHandler
public void onPlayerDeath(PlayerDeathEvent event) {
    Player player = event.getEntity();
    Location deathLocation = player.getLocation();

    Block block = deathLocation.getBlock();
    block.setType(Material.CHEST);
    deathLocation.clone().add(1,0,0).getBlock().setType(Material.CHEST);

    Chest chest = (Chest) block.getState();
    Inventory chestInventory = chest.getInventory();
    Inventory inventory = chestInventory instanceof DoubleChestInventory ? ((DoubleChest) chestInventory.getHolder()).getInventory() : chestInventory;
    
    // Collect & store
}

[royal hedge]

its not like i have 3 years of in person training

[sterile hinge]

its not like Tony has 3 years of in person training when it comes to reading

[royal hedge]

ive only seen u beat up peoples code and tell em to learn java lmao

[graceful hedge]

omg how dare you!? Learn java! (/s)

[sonic nebula]

Look at chat history

😉

It’s just pretty often here when people want get spoon feed

I don’t have big problem with spoon feed when it make sense

Not when the guy ask us to devolop and fix his code after language model which generates bullshit

[sonic nebula]

also when i ask for help

no one help me

because when i ask for help there literally no answer on google for my problems

usually shit related to the API

[royal hedge]

Youre always telling people misunderstanding an api (usually bukkit) to learn java

[sonic nebula]

Dudę the guy Herę

Used Break instead of return

And ton of wierd code

No sense code

Probably generated by language model

I will never support someone who doesn’t want to help him self in first place

anyway u cant understand simple api functions with java in garbage level

https://pastebin.com/DyePBBNh

his commands thing

basically language model garbage

he has no clue what he does only spoonfeed appears here

he doesnt need help with the API he needs us to be his code slaves

i will never support never someone who did try did put his valuable time studying java

[royal hedge]

yeah because break is how you stop fall through (or whatever it's called) in switches?

sounds like someone needs to learn java

[sonic nebula]

u do return

instead

if its the end

[royal hedge]

bud doesn't know java

[sonic nebula]

sparky there no reason to break if its the end of the code block

[royal hedge]

blud doesn't know about switch fall through and is telling someone who does to learn java

[sonic nebula]

he doesnt know java

at all

he uses language model

[royal hedge]

the breaks are perfectly correct breaks lmao

[sonic nebula]

i do know how switch cases work

so u wanna say our lad here knows what he is doing?

to be clear its his code?

0/1

no or yes

[royal hedge]

bud thinks hes a programmer cuz he said 0/1 💀

[sonic nebula]

i do code for years i dont say im something

u assume that u piece of sh7t

u cant even say yes or no

[gilded imp]

ur acting cocky

[sonic nebula]

because u know its model language sh7t

[gilded imp]

take ur ego somewhere else

no one is complaining like u

[sonic nebula]

go to plugins help

[gilded imp]

even if hes using ai generated shit

[sonic nebula]

u not welcome hee

u r not welcome here

[gilded imp]

ur the biggest yapper here

[sonic nebula]

milad this chat is ffor people who need help

[gilded imp]

doesnt matter

the guy was asking for help

[sonic nebula]

he doesnt deserve any help if he didnt put afford and time to study basics

if it was stackoverflow post was denied lol

[gilded imp]

he is being taught here

[royal hedge]

ur acting like ur everything lmao

[gilded imp]

ikr

and why do u care even

[sonic nebula]

from same reason as u came here

make sense?

[gilded imp]

what

i only replied cause u been crying for the past 2 days

[royal hedge]

idk abt milad but im here to tell u to not be a dick

[gilded imp]

pretty much

[sonic nebula]

dude why do u care even

u have mental problems or something read ur answer and ur question

[royal hedge]

what.

[sonic nebula]

Sparky im aint a dick but i dont support model language people here and highly against giving any help to them

he claims he did it , its not like something advanced tbh but anyway the reason behind is very clear

and that milad is a wierd idiot who join our conversation it took him couple of messages to just prove his poin

point

look at that

he came here because i was "crying for 2 days" , "why do you care even"

many people dont support spoon feeding

its not helping person

its like giving homeless a fish everyday instead of teaching him to fish fishes

u get what i mean?

[royal hedge]

im guessing you hunt for each of your meals rather than buying them

[sonic nebula]

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/give_a_man_a_fish_and_you_feed_him_for_a_day;_teach_a_man_to_fish_and_you_feed_him_for_a_lifetime

[royal hedge]

i know the saying im just pointing out that u got it wrong

[sonic nebula]

maybe its not the most correct way ur right i should ignore those homeless idiots who ask people to code for them

ur right

they are not homeless but yeah ill just ignore the lazy 2 digits who appear here its a big group should be a common thing not every road rage i break people car mirrors

[dense drift]

@sonic nebula how come I always come here and see walls of text from you?

[river solstice]

classic tonyfalk schizo rant activities

[hoary scarab]

Anyone know why EntityDamageByEntityEvent(Entity damager, Entity damagee, EntityDamageEvent.DamageCause cause, double damage) was deprecated in 1.8?
Its not in later versions.

[sterile hinge]

Probably because it doesn’t mention any damage modifiers at all

But generally event constructors aren’t really api

[hoary scarab]

Its not deprecated in later versions though.

[sterile hinge]

Then it’s probably just md5 things

[hoary scarab]

👍

[sterile hinge]

If it didn’t exist in 1.7, it’s probably rather to mark it as experimental api

[graceful hedge]

chill man, everyone isn’t always as perfect as you are

[spiral prairie]

Just read the whole conversation and dude what the actual fuck

[hoary scarab]

I'm trying to find how EntityDeathEvent has the drops added to it.
I foundjava CraftEventFactory.callEntityDeathEvent(this, this.drops); this.drops = new ArrayList(); in LivingEntity but I don't see anywhere drops is modified or added to...

[proud pebble]

check rhe super classes

[night nacelle]

Can someone help me? I have a vanilla resource pack and my textures for some items don't want to work, and when I try to merge two packs into one... it breaks completely. If someone can guide me on these fixes, it would be greatly appreciated!

[sand bane]

iirc the drops are stored in the entity builder

net.minecraft.data.loot.EntityLoot

this.add(EntityType.SPIDER, LootTable

someone help me with updating my fake player in the tab list I tried sending and then removing but I had a issue of a defualt minecraft skin flickering as the fake player skin which made it look bad YapperApps gave me a suggestion of caching it and modifying it but it dosnt update ```java
CachedPacket cachedPacket = new CachedPacket(UUID.randomUUID(), new FakePlayerUtil().getNextLetter(s), "");

@Override
public void updateFakePlayer(Player player) {
    new BukkitRunnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            if (!player.isOnline()) {
                this.cancel();
                return;
            }

            cachedPacket.updateDisplayName(player.getHealth() + "");

            cachedPacket.sendPacketOnce(player);
        }
    }.runTaskTimer(MafanaNetwork.getInstance(), 0L, 20L);
}```

public class CachedPacket {

    private final ProtocolManager manager;
    private final UUID uuid;
    private final WrappedGameProfile profile;

    public CachedPacket(UUID uuid, String playerName, String displayName) {
        this.manager = ProtocolLibrary.getProtocolManager();
        this.uuid = uuid;
        this.profile = new WrappedGameProfile(uuid, playerName);
        updateDisplayName(displayName);
    }

    public void sendPacketOnce(Player player) {
        PacketContainer packet = createPacket();
        this.manager.sendServerPacket(player, packet);
    }

    public void updateDisplayName(String newDisplayName) {
        PacketContainer packet = createPacket();
        List<PlayerInfoData> infoLists = new ArrayList<>();

        PlayerInfoData playerInfoData = new PlayerInfoData(profile, 20, EnumWrappers.NativeGameMode.CREATIVE, WrappedChatComponent.fromText(newDisplayName));

        infoLists.add(playerInfoData);

        packet.getPlayerInfoDataLists().write(1, infoLists);

        for (Player onlinePlayer : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()) {
            if (onlinePlayer.getUniqueId().equals(uuid)) {
                this.manager.sendServerPacket(onlinePlayer, packet);
                break;
            }
        }
    }

    private PacketContainer createPacket() {
        PacketContainer packet = this.manager.createPacket(PacketType.Play.Server.PLAYER_INFO);
        return packet;
    }
}```

[tight junco]

whats the reason for consistently sending the packet

[hoary scarab]

You're still constantly creating a new packet. Try this:

private PacketContainer packet;

private PacketContainer createPacket() {
    return packet = packet == null ? this.manager.createPacket(PacketType.Play.Server.PLAYER_INFO) : packet;
}

Also I'm curious to for what Ori asked. Are you trying to make a animated tablist or something?

YapperApps
And you missed a "y" lol

[tight junco]

hello yapperapps

[graceful hedge]

lol

[river solstice]

How can I detect the if the player is by X blocks close to the wall of a CuboidArea? and get that closest location

[craggy zealot]

No I am trying to display lets say coins of the player that updates every second on the tab list

[craggy zealot]

even with the change the fake player doesnt even apear in my tab list

[dense drift]

perhaps smth like this? https://stackoverflow.com/a/18157551

[uneven needle]

Yapper

[hoary scarab]

Any errors in console?

[sonic nebula]

u send packet spoof it..

[craggy zealot]

i fixed it but another thing sparked my mind

could I save a player object/offline player in mysql?

becuase lets say i have a friends plugin and you can see your friends

player 1 is friends with player 2 there are 2 servers player 2 has never logged on to server 2 but player 1 has and player 1 uses the command /friends list java OfflinePlayer oPlayer = Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(uuid.getPlayerUUID()); player 2 wont be listed because he never logged on to server 2

[dusky harness]

you can save their UUID

[craggy zealot]

no I know that but that uuid is usless if the player never loggs on to the server

im talking about a waterfall setup btw

does the waterfall proxy have a offlinePlayer system?

[river solstice]

seems to be somewhat-working:

        double dx = Math.max(area.getLowLocation().getX() - loc.getX(), loc.getX() - area.getHighLocation().getX());
        double dz = Math.max(area.getLowLocation().getZ() - loc.getZ(), loc.getZ() - area.getHighLocation().getZ());

        return Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dz * dz) < 5;

but it only works on the corners of the box

[dense drift]

Are the coordinates right?

[river solstice]

I would think so lol

also, if I add the 0 into the Math.max, then it doesnt work fsr

[dense drift]

Welp, it seems like it is not that easy according to the replies to this post https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/2133217/minimal-distance-to-a-cube-in-2d-and-3d-from-a-point-lying-outside

[river solstice]

I mean I've been thinking about a wacky solution, just not sure how performance heavy would it

[dense drift]

Hmm, see the accepted answer, idk what "axis aligned" means

[river solstice]

on player move:
get the player new location
loop through the cuboid low X -> high X by increments of 2-3 to save some performance
in loop check if the new location is near one of those X points

same for z

[dense drift]

You could calculate the distance to the corners perhaps, depending how big this rectangle is ig

[river solstice]

the max the area would be is 70x70

[dense drift]

Welp

[river solstice]

time for some trigonometry

[river solstice]

eh kinda figured it out

now the tricky part is displaying the border correctly

fsr the blockX and Z are offset to one of the directions or my calculations are wrong

prob the latter

[craggy zealot]

can someone pleasee help me with my ordering so im trying to display fake players in the tab list and forthem to be in order the GameProfile name has to be in alphebtical order right so a..b..c..d..z after z it goes za.zb..zc..zz right.... but after zz its not zza SO WHAT IS IT????????

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

https://imgur.com/a/akuBZU8

see??

[sonic nebula]

...

ur code make no sense comparinig to the display

[proud pebble]

just check if the player's x,y and z are within the region's corner values

• the range to check

if its 0,0,0 10,10,10, check if the player's xyz is bigger/equal to -3 and is less/equal to 13

if your wanting a location thats inside the box thats closest to the player, then for each coord,
px >= bigX, closestX = bigX
px <= smallX, closestX = smallX
px between bigX and smallX? closestX = px set to int to remove decimal

do the same for each coord

i dont think theres a need to loop at all

[sonic nebula]

Don’t do it on move event it’s gonna be kinda heavy

Just run a task instead every 5 ticks or so

Move event is executed even when player moves his head

[sonic nebula]

Yeah I also didn’t get the reason for looping via all blocks inside the cube

If it’s a sphere , cube , cylinder border and not something different

I would suggest u instead ; the center of the arena the shrings or what ever

And calculate the distance from the center each time instead of calculating how close the place is to the borders

U can run it on asynchrony and when ever player gets closer and closer to the border run the task more often

By that way u can save ton of performance

For example if he is at the center run it every 60 ticks as he gets closer to the border of the arena 40,20,10…

Also for a cube u it would be different calculation since it’s not same distance from center to different borders when I think about it

Bruh

But u still can calculate the max distance that possible from the center towards x z

Because u know the direction using the coordinates I’ll explain later on when I wake up it’s 9am 😭😭😭

And to get the closest player u can wether use a map/list or just constantly update all of them or the closest via the check if he is closer then the other player that was set to be the closest before ^^

[river solstice]

or have a map with uuid and last timestamp when it was last displayed to the player

[sonic nebula]

U can instead of displaying actual number do text Far from ring , close , when very close display number since u gonna run the task often enough to give good updates on it

[river solstice]

what number

[small mango]

i need help

[neat pier]

There is no time to wait! Ask your question @small mango!

[small mango]

im currntly a dev for a anarchy server and the owner wants a ssh plugin

i tried

but hasnt succseded

its hard

pls help

hlep4

i mean

yes there is sshd

but he wants it that

its invisable

to other players

[river solstice]

what are you blabbing about

[small mango]

read bruh\

[hoary scarab]

SSH plugin?

[small mango]

yea

he wants me to create a plugin that he can ssh into it

[river solstice]

the fuck

and what does he want to do sshing into a plugin

[small mango]

shiii idk

i just work for him

i just want the pay check

[dense drift]

If you don't know what you have to do, how could we help? 🙂

[minor summit]

why not just ssh normally lol

[small mango]

there is already a plugin for this its called sshd on spigot mc how do i fork it to make it stelthy as the owner wanted

[flint kernel]

the word "stealthy" there gives me "I want to backdoor my server so I can fuck over my co-owner friends" kinda vibes

[small mango]

it aint 2b2t let me tell ya

[small mango]

and by stelthy i mean not appear in chat or to the console

[minor summit]

here's your ssh plugin
systemctl enable sshd.service

[small mango]

bruh

what do i do with this

[minor summit]

you run that on the server machine

[small mango]

nah nah you dont get it

im tryina fork this

https://github.com/Justasic/Minecraft-SSHD

to not

give out messages

when anything happens

[minor summit]

you are not receiving help installing a backdoor

[junior shard]

Why is that even a thing

[small mango]

its not a backdoor

it has a good purpose

its not even for me

[junior shard]

Remote access isn’t even that complex, if you have a windows VM its default, with Linux you 99% of the time have an SSH setup, and if you use a host they either use multicraft or ptero which can be accessed from your phone anywhere

[small mango]

listen idk

i just work for the guy

[dense drift]

there is already a plugin for this its called sshd on spigot mc how do i fork it to make it stelthy as the owner wanted
Read this again

[small mango]

he said he wanted so imma give

[river solstice]

do it yourself idk

[junior shard]

And I don’t understand why running console commands would print to the server chat, just disable the game rule in game and run commands through the server console

[river solstice]

dont ask for help for seemingly sketchy stuff

[junior shard]

There’s no need for a back door

[small mango]

then why the fuck did i come here to get support

[river solstice]

people are free to refuse helping you lol

[dense drift]

[junior shard]

You’re asking for help on something sketchy

[river solstice]

noone is obligated to help you, everyone is chipping in to help at no cost

[small mango]

i dont care what a i program if someone is paying me fuck it

[junior shard]

Simple, tell the owner to just use Pterodactyl and they can remote access anywhere from a website and a login

[river solstice]

or... hear me out

ssh

[minor summit]

why does it even have to be a plugin lmao

[river solstice]

not in a plugin

[minor summit]

regular ssh exists for a reason

[junior shard]

^^^

[flint kernel]

i think he should totally use shh instead of ssh

[small mango]

cuz its a vps of some kind

[junior shard]

Literally use a mobile app called Termius

[small mango]

listen are you gonna help me or nah

[river solstice]

no

[minor summit]

and how is that accessed if not by ssh

[river solstice]

magic vps

[small mango]

idk some kind of a website

[river solstice]

aternos

[small mango]

like apex hosting but diffrent

[junior shard]

Any vps can be accessed by ssh or a Remote Desktop depending on the OS

[flint kernel]

was about to say some sort of cpanel type shit but this is a MC server so that makes no sense

[minor summit]

you do realise how sketchy this sounds, right?

[junior shard]

Also isn’t there literally a game rule called ConsoleOutput that you can disable to make the console commands not print to the whole server / ops

[minor summit]

that's only for some things, like vanilla commands

[junior shard]

Ah

[flint kernel]

the way i read this, either ur client is trying to backdoor the MC server (and like, whytf?), or trying to do the sort of activity which at best is in violation of the hosting service's ToS, at worst a criminal offence

[river solstice]

1. Use the actual ssh
2. Use the already existing ssh plugin
3. Fork the existing plugin and make your changes accordingly (license btw)
4. Do it yourself but dont expect any help

[small mango]

how bout i use chat gpt

now that i think about it

[junior shard]

…

[small mango]

chat gpt isnt a bad idea

cya

[river solstice]

💀

another chatgpt blud

[junior shard]

Lmao

[small mango]

thanks for wasting my time

[river solstice]

you too

[junior shard]

Don’t ask for help backdooring a server, easy

[small mango]

xd

tbh

i wasnt trying to make a backdoor

i was just following order for the paycheck

[river solstice]

surely chatgpt will give you fully working code

[small mango]

no sometimes

[river solstice]

and we just have to believe it

[small mango]

i have to fix it my self

but it mostly does a good job

[river solstice]

either way, no 'elp

[flint kernel]

In other news, CompleteableFutures have broken my brain

so, can someone explain this to me:

if i run CompleteableFuture#runAsync without providing an executor (thereby using the common forkjoinpool) or using #join, the code never executes, but if i do the same thing except this time i provide a threadpoolexecutor as the executor, it runs

[minor summit]

sounds like the common pool is busy

potentially deadlocked

[flint kernel]

that's the thing, not only does the code never execute, the program just finishes as if it did run

also, it isn't/shouldn't be; this is a scratch program with nothing except this test program running

[minor summit]

do you have a reproducer..?

[flint kernel]

a what

[minor summit]

code that can reliably reproduce that behaviour

[flint kernel]

public static void main(String[] args) {
    final var scheduler = ForkJoinPool.commonPool(); // swap between this and new AsyncExecutor();

    final var startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
    CompletableFuture.runAsync(() -> {
        try {
            Thread.sleep(1000);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
    }, scheduler).thenRun(() -> {
        System.out.println("1: Hello from thread " + Thread.currentThread().getName());
        System.out.println("1: Took " + (System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime) + "ms");
    });

    CompletableFuture.runAsync(() -> {
        System.out.println("2: Hello from thread " + Thread.currentThread().getName());
        System.out.println("2: Took " + (System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime) + "ms");
    }, scheduler);
}

static final class AsyncExecutor extends ThreadPoolExecutor {

    private static final int MIN_ASYNC_THREADS = Math.min(Runtime.getRuntime().availableProcessors(), 2);
    private static final int MAX_ASYNC_THREADS = Runtime.getRuntime().availableProcessors();
    private static final int ASYNC_THREAD_TIMEOUT = 60;

    public AsyncExecutor() {
        super(MIN_ASYNC_THREADS, MAX_ASYNC_THREADS, ASYNC_THREAD_TIMEOUT, TimeUnit.SECONDS, new LinkedBlockingQueue<>());
        allowCoreThreadTimeOut(true);
    }

}

this environment is the only environment i'm testing it in

[minor summit]

threads from the common pool are daemon threads, meaning the jvm won't wait for them to finish execution to exit

so, you'd need to .join or some other waiting mechanism

[flint kernel]

so if i want to have "launch and forget" save methods for example, I definitely need them to run on a custom executor?

[minor summit]

well, yes and no, if you're maintaining your own pool of non-daemon threads you'd need to shut it down at, well, program shutdown, since the jvm would wait for those threads to finish but the pool is waiting for tasks to run, you need to signal to the pool to not accept any more jobs

the worse alternative is to spawn a new thread solely to run the task which is awful resource-wise

[flint kernel]

in this case, running shutdown on the pool in a plugin's onDisable

[minor summit]

yeah that works

onDisable is for cleanup and that kind of stuff

[flint kernel]

is this to say that using the threadpool is a bad idea, or using the "new Thread(runnable)" kinda stuff for every task is a bad idea

[minor summit]

spawning a new thread to run one task, multiple times is certainly a bad idea

[flint kernel]

for context: this executor, whatever form it takes, will only be used for my database stuff

[minor summit]

the common thread pool certainly does have its uses but it can easily be misused

[flint kernel]

and am i misusing it in this context

I barely understand a thing about concurrency, threads n pools n everything so i've just been going off of what i've seen others doing when it comes to these things

[minor summit]

well, i think CompletableFutures using the common pool is a misuse of the common pool

[flint kernel]

I meant using the custom executor i showed

[minor summit]

your issue is less about that and more about not ensuring your tasks run fully before shutting down

you don't really need a class extending TPE either, just create a new one

[flint kernel]

Yeah I don't really know why I did that

[flint kernel]

i think we established that shutting down the executor in onDisable dealt with those issues

[minor summit]

yeah

[flint kernel]

ok so my other question with the whole forkjoin-TPE thing is:

If I have a CF stage which runs on the FJP, but later stages run on my TPE, could I run into the same issue of the code never executing due to the FJP

[minor summit]

it can be prevented

[flint kernel]

e.g., I have a name -> UUID async loading cache which lazy-loads UUIDs using Paper's Server#getPlayerUniqueId method, this part (atm) just runs on the common pool, but the database futures which will consume that UUID mapping are all running on the TPE

Some of these won't necessarily have #joins or #gets

[minor summit]

i don't know exactly how the server handles the executor that takes care of that, but if you want like complete control over that you can use a Phaser or some count-down mechanism

multithreading is not easy

[flint kernel]

I don't even know what a Phaser is and i'm not sure i want to know xD

[minor summit]

yeah the other option is, don't worry about it

[flint kernel]

oh actually to be clear, the server doesn't have the CF that runs that method here, that's the cache that creates the CF; afaik the Server's method just runs sync

Am using Caffeine/Guava's AsyncCacheLoader:

@Override
public CompletableFuture<UUID> asyncLoad(final String name, final Executor executor) throws Exception {
        return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(() -> Bukkit.getPlayerUniqueId(name), executor);
    }

I haven't provided the Cache builder with an executor so it defaults to the common FJP

So the question is, should I continue using the common FJP, create my own FJP, use my database TPE, or?

[sterile hinge]

supplyAsync should run the task unless the common fjp is busy until the application is stopped

but early java 17 versions have a bug where that's not the case if you run your code on machines with only one core available to the jvm

[flint kernel]

so what i'm hearing is, just make my own FJP at least

[sterile hinge]

that might be a good idea

[flint kernel]

Looking at LP (which is kinda my go-to reference for a lot of things), they make their own for this exact type of situation (using the cache-loader)

[dusty frost]

Java 21 virtual threads 😌

[graceful hedge]

kotlin coroutines work with virtual threads

aww, java monopoly cancelled 😔

i was trying to hook a plugin yesterday for 3 whole hours and i didnt succeed :/

skill issue? eh probably

[west crystal]

Hey just wondering is there a way to have my plugin check if a papi library is installed?

[west crystal]

Ah i think i know the fix

Are you using intellij?

follow the procedure and THEN

[marble heart]

yeap

[west crystal]

Once u've done everything on the wiki

ahh wait wont let me send ss ill dm u

[west crystal]

Help pls

i ll kiss u

[hushed badge]

PlaceholderAPI.isRegistered(String)

[west crystal]

Thank you!

[west crystal]

is that capital sensitive?

[hushed badge]

all identifiers for expansions in theory should be lowercased

[west crystal]

ah ok

also anyway for me to make my code run after placeholder api install

basically i'm trying to install the dependency expansions in the plugin

[flint kernel]

ExpansionManager or something

[west crystal]

not finding it when i do PlaceholderAPI.(tab complete in intellij)

where should i look for it?

[flint kernel]

there's 2 expansion managers in there

i think you need to go through and like, check if the expansion is already installed and if not download & install it using all the api methods

[west crystal]

thats what i'm thinking of doing

but i cant find the expansion manager

[flint kernel]

it's in PlaceholderAPIPlugin the getters

i feel like there should be a better way of doing it but im not sure

[west crystal]

Cant see it in there

dm'ing u an image cuz i cant send it to u here

[flint kernel]

ur trying to access it statically

[west crystal]

I'm pretty new to java, what do you mean by this? and how would i not access it statically?

[flint kernel]

:/

[west crystal]

Like i understand the concept

kinda

shit

im dumb

its what i though

sorry abt that the 0039(time) is hitting hard

[flint kernel]

#straya

[west crystal]

fr fr

[west crystal]

being dumb late at night again. How do i call it like a function type thing

this aint working

[flint kernel]

wut

[west crystal]

@NotNull Optional<CloudExpansion> vault = new PlaceholderAPIPlugin().getCloudExpansionManager().findCloudExpansionByName("vault");
new PlaceholderAPIPlugin().getCloudExpansionManager().downloadExpansion(vault);

[flint kernel]

you don't wanna call new on PlaceholderAPIPlugin

[west crystal]

then waht do i call

brain die

[flint kernel]

you need to access an instance, if there's no static like #get or #getInstance methods then you should try the Bukkit#getPluginManager#getPlugin methods

[west crystal]

so you're saying i should make 1 new in my main and then js access it?

[flint kernel]

no

[west crystal]

well now im even more confused

💀

there is a static #getInstance method

OH

[flint kernel]

in PlaceholderAPIPlugin?

[west crystal]

U MEANT ON THE PlaceholderAPIPlugin

OH

[flint kernel]

yes

smh

[west crystal]

lmfao

my fault

@NotNull Optional<CloudExpansion> vault = PlaceholderAPIPlugin.getInstance().getCloudExpansionManager().findCloudExpansionByName("vault");
PlaceholderAPIPlugin.getInstance().getCloudExpansionManager().downloadExpansion((CloudExpansion) vault);

[flint kernel]

ur not using that optional properly

but yes that's the general idea

[west crystal]

The only problem i'm having is that its saying Optional<CloudExpansion> can't be cast to CloudExpansion

[flint kernel]

because it can't

[west crystal]

well yes i got that part-

[flint kernel]

i think u need sleep

[west crystal]

but what should i use instead

[west crystal]

yes

[flint kernel]

you need to use the optional methods

to check if a result was returned

etc

go sleep u victorian/cockroach-nsw/ACT weirdo

;3

[west crystal]

lmfao once i get this coded

cuz i need to put it on the server before the automated restart

or i will get yelled at by players

@flint kernel Ok i feel like im somewhat close only problem is this one
'downloadExpansion([e-mail] CloudExpansion, [e-mail] Version)' in 'me.clip.placeholderapi.expansion.manager.CloudExpansionManager' cannot be applied to '(me.clip.placeholderapi.expansion.cloud.CloudExpansion)'

if (!(PlaceholderAPI.isRegistered("vault"))) {
  @NotNull Optional<CloudExpansion> vault = PlaceholderAPIPlugin.getInstance().getCloudExpansionManager().findCloudExpansionByName("vault");
  if (!(vault.isPresent())) {
    plugin.getLogger().info("Vault Not Found!!!");
  } else {
    CloudExpansion vaultExpansion = vault.get();
    PlaceholderAPIPlugin.getInstance().getCloudExpansionManager().downloadExpansion(vaultExpansion);
  }
}

[flint kernel]

you need a version

isn't IDEA yelling at u cus of ur errors

[west crystal]

thats the only error the on e i snet

😢

i levelled up from asking for so much help

[flint kernel]

ok wait wtf is going on with my ide

we have this error

Cannot resolve method 'isPresne' in 'Optional'

then that line is

if (!(vault.isPresent())) {

HAHA

woo

i fixed it

i die now thanks for the help

[thin tendon]

hey! I'm working on a custom papi expansion for my plugin, this is the current code ```java
public class VampirismMCExpansion extends PlaceholderExpansion {

private final VampirismMCPlugin plugin;

public VampirismMCExpansion(final VampirismMCPlugin plugin) {
    this.plugin = plugin;
}

@NotNull
@Override
public String getAuthor() {
    return "OliviaTheVampire";
}

@NotNull
@Override
public String getIdentifier() {
    return "vampirismmc";
}

@NotNull
@Override
public String getVersion() {
    return plugin.getDescription().getVersion();
}

@Override
public boolean persist() {
    return true;
}

@Override
public String onRequest(final OfflinePlayer player, @NotNull final String params) {
    String[] paramArray = params.split(" ");
    String setName = paramArray[0];
    String[] paramArray2 = paramArray[1].split("_");
    String type = paramArray2[0];
    String field = paramArray2[1];
    return VampirismMCPlugin.INSTANCE.welcomeMessages.entrySet().stream().map(stringConfigurationSectionEntry -> {
        if (!Objects.equals(stringConfigurationSectionEntry.getKey(), setName)) return "null";
        return stringConfigurationSectionEntry.getValue().getConfigurationSection(type).getString(field);
    }).toString();
}

}``` but I was suggested to cache all the config info when it initialises

[hoary scarab]

return VampirismMCPlugin.INSTANCE.welcomeMessages.entrySet().stream().map(stringConfigurationSectionEntry -> {
if (!Objects.equals(stringConfigurationSectionEntry.getKey(), setName)) return "null";
return stringConfigurationSectionEntry.getValue().getConfigurationSection(type).getString(field);
}).toString();
All these values should be cached so you aren't constantly requesting them from the config.

[tepid sequoia]

well its all cached anyways

but caching it yourself is still nice since its more performant and readable

[grim oasis]

lol ya...

they were trying to ask for help on how to cache the values

since I told them they really should be

but good point, config is cached so

[hoary scarab]

Is there a legitimate reason for Entity.getNearByEntities(x,y,z) not being allowed to run async?
I was thinking concurrency but based on the source it creates a new list anyways.

[sterile hinge]

it still has to access chunks/the world

creating a new list doesn't matter at all there

(also source code isn't the specification)

[hoary scarab]

Welp... Gotta use my work around then. sigh

[sterile hinge]

that sounds like you're doing terrible stuff

[hoary scarab]

Nah I just grab the list of entities from the worlds entity manager.

[sterile hinge]

that's not thread safe either btw

[hoary scarab]

Havent had any issues with it. Its just a list I make a copy of.

[sterile hinge]

yeah, that's not thread safe

just because you haven't had any issues with it doesn't mean it might not randomly crash a server tomorrow

[hoary scarab]

That can be said for anything.
How is it not thread safe and how can I make it thread safe?

[sterile hinge]

"anything" isn't thread unsafe by design

you can run it on the main thread

[hoary scarab]

I could but in this scenario I'm already running on async so I would be passing the data back and fourth between sync/async. Currently I'm using bukkit runnables so those can take multiple ticks to pass in which I could already be at the point where I need to collect the entities again.

[sterile hinge]

guess what, whenever you do something async it only might happen when you need to collect the entities again

sounds like whatever you're doing is conceptually flawed already

[hoary scarab]

That doesn't help make copying a list thread safe.

I do calculations, list modification etc async then pass it to sync so there is less the main thread has to do. If I go back and fourth between sync/async it could eventually overlap.

[sterile hinge]

you could even see data outdated by minutes or hours in theory if you copy the list like that

[hoary scarab]

If the server is lagging ofcourse. But I can also check for the time of list creation if I really thought it hasn't ran for that long.

[sterile hinge]

that has nothing to do with lags, it has to do with how the jvm memory model works

[hoary scarab]

Ok lets move back to thread safety.
I want to copy a list. What would you do to make that thread safe?

[sterile hinge]

prevent any other thread from modifying the list during that time

[hoary scarab]

So in my scenario... Should I just freeze the main thread while I make a copy of the list?

[sterile hinge]

not sure how you want to freeze the main thread, but in that case you can just sync on it

[hoary scarab]

So just clarifying, is reading lists not thread safe either? I thought just manipulating it wasn't (Adding, removing, setting).

[sterile hinge]

no it's not thread safe

not even reading an int is thread safe

[hoary scarab]

So nothing can be read on multiple threads?

[sterile hinge]

it depends

if you read from a constant with multiple threads, that's fine

class ShowStopper {
        static boolean running = true;
        public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable {
                var t0 = new Thread(() -> {
                        try {
                                Thread.sleep(10_000);
                        } catch (Exception e) {
                                e.printStackTrace();
                        }
                        running = false;
                });
                var t1 = new Thread(() -> {
                        while (running);
                });
                t1.start();
                t0.start();
                t1.join();
        }
}

what would you expect this code to do?

[hoary scarab]

After 10 seconds t1 should stop running.

[sterile hinge]

you can try out and see if that's what happening

[hoary scarab]

public class Testing {

    private static boolean run = true;
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        //long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
        
        Thread first = new Thread(() -> {
            //System.out.println("Started: "+Thread.currentThread().getName());
            
            try {
                Thread.sleep(10000);
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
            
            //System.out.println("run = false");
            run = false;
        }, "First");
        
        Thread second = new Thread(() -> {
            while (run) {
                //long current = System.currentTimeMillis();
                //System.out.println("Elapsed: "+((current-startTime)/1000)+" "+Thread.currentThread().getName());
            }
        }, "Second");
        
        second.start();
        first.start();
        
        try {
            second.join();
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        
    }
    
}
```Wrote and tested stops after 10 seconds.

[sterile hinge]

yep but that's different code

[hoary scarab]

Has debug but its the same code.

What were you expecting your code to do?

[sterile hinge]

my code never stops (at least on my machine)

[hoary scarab]

Yikes

[sterile hinge]

if you remove the debug stuff, that most likely happens with your code on your machine too

[hoary scarab]

I'll try it.

Edited the code above. Same thing stops after 10 seconds.

[sterile hinge]

interesting

how do you run it?

[hoary scarab]

Eclipse run

[sterile hinge]

ah, that might cause some differences I guess

but that's a good example how testing on one machine isn't a proof that something works when dealing with multithreading

[hoary scarab]

public class ShowStopper {
    static AtomicBoolean running = new AtomicBoolean(true);
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable {
            var t0 = new Thread(() -> {
                    try {
                            Thread.sleep(10_000);
                    } catch (Exception e) {
                            e.printStackTrace();
                    }
                    running.set(false);
            });
            var t1 = new Thread(() -> {
                    while (running.get());
            });
            t1.start();
            t0.start();
            t1.join();
    }
}
```This should work for you.

[sterile hinge]

yes that will work, that's a thread safe program

[hoary scarab]

So why would this not be?

List<String> text = Arrays.asList("Test", "String", "Thread");
        
Thread first = new Thread(() -> text.forEach(s -> System.out.println("["+Thread.currentThread().getName()+"] "+s)), "First");

Thread second = new Thread(() -> {
    List<String> modfiable = new ArrayList<>(text);
    modfiable.addAll(Arrays.asList("String", "Thread", "Test"));
    modfiable.forEach(s -> System.out.println("["+Thread.currentThread().getName()+"] "+s));
}, "Second");

[sterile hinge]

that's thread safe too, because starting a thread always introduces a happens-before relationship with the code before it, in this case the list is created before the other threads are started, and when they start, they see the list as it is, and that list isn't modified anymore after that

[hoary scarab]

That code is basically what I'm doing with the entities list.

[sterile hinge]

no

[hoary scarab]

no what?

[sterile hinge]

it's not what you're doing with the entities list

[hoary scarab]

How is it not? I take a list make a copy modify the copy and use the copy elsewhere.

[sterile hinge]

yes, but the main thread can modify the list at the same time, and you don't have any happens-before relationship there anymore

[hoary scarab]

It can modify the original list not the copy. I don't care about the modifications until a later time anyways.

[sterile hinge]

but creating the copy isn't an atomic operation

[river solstice]

eclipse 💀

[hoary scarab]

Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskAsynchronously(pl, () -> {
    WorldServer minecraftWorld = (WorldServer) ((CraftWorld) world).getHandle();
    Iterable<Entity> entities = minecraftWorld.M.d().a();
    CopyOnWriteArrayList<Entity> entityList = new CopyOnWriteArrayList<>();
    entities.forEach(entityList::add);

    // Pass entityList to sync
});
```So this wouldn't be thread safe?

[sterile hinge]

I don't know what M.d().a() is but most likely not

[hoary scarab]

M = EntityManager
d() = getEntityManager()
a() = getAll()

[sterile hinge]

not sure which mappings you're using there

but considering basically nothing is thread safe there, that most likely isn't either

[warm steppe]

Where did you get that

[fast glade]

I'm trying to open a custom inventory of an anvil, but i want to hide the players inventory contents from this gui, (without using any resource packs)

I couldn't find any way to do this easily, so I'm currently storing the players inventory contents, then clearing their inventory when opening the gui, then as they close it, im re-adding their items. This gets complicated pretty fast, cause i gotta make sure their items persist not in just memory (like if the server crashes when someone has the gui open) or handle player death, or itempickup when they got the inventory open

Basically what im asking, is there a better way to do this?
(note: i am using paper and not spigot, so im happy to use paper only methods that spigot doesnt have)

[proud pebble]

use packets to set the slots in their inventory?

means they arent actually removed, but they wouldnt show up in the menu

[fast glade]

oh good idea, never used packets, is there an easy way to do something like that natively without nms, or will i need to learn to use something like protocollib

[proud pebble]

packetevents i think can do it

protocollib works too

or you could just do it with nms

any work

[fast glade]

i guess i still come to the issue of needing to stop incoming changes like if a player picks up an item

(or stop the packet)

[proud pebble]

packets is probably the safest way to do it without wiping items, tho its probably one of the most tedious things cus you have to make sure you check for every edgecase

[fast glade]

yeah, im guessing ill probably just stick with clearing and saving the items in the players pdc, then retrieving after inventory close, or player join (if the server crashed)
seems simpler, and probably has less issues

[worn jasper]

I would check how command panels does it.

[worn jasper]

Also, this can also lead to several issues, best way is def. packets, you only change it visually

[fast glade]

like what issues tho?

comamndpanels just save their inventories to a file

so no different really than pdc

[analog moth]

😄

[worn jasper]

fr? thought they did it with packets

I know that @scenic vapor did menus with packets and achieved exactly what you want. Maybe he can help?

[scenic vapor]

thats me

ye Ive been even using packets for the ShopGUI+ extension

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/884159228154093629/1133729915636813915/2023-07-26_13-54-52.mp4?ex=659e8643&is=658c1143&hm=44a7b349ef41e1dd9a1ee9780b353709e820ba04e39b69781e4aa05f5f50485d&

this one

[fast glade]

i think im just gonna store them, seems a lot less complicated

[scenic vapor]

ye but thats not safe at all

[fast glade]

how

[scenic vapor]

data lost

look

serializing is not instant

• errors can be thrown while saving/loading

you would always have to use completable future

to make it so there's a little delay

to make sure everything went how it should

[fast glade]

im using pdc

[scenic vapor]

and what

thats still serialization

• imagine that your server crashes

while a menu is opened

[fast glade]

im storing to pdc before opening

[scenic vapor]

if you are not doing it async

then you would have performance issues

[fast glade]

no different from a player putting an item in their inventory and the server crashing and them losing that item

[scenic vapor]

w custom items w some nbts, etc. etc.

[fast glade]

it uses pdc, so it saves the same time any inventory items are saved

[scenic vapor]

• there could be a pontential dupe glitch

[fast glade]

how is there a dupe glitch

[scenic vapor]

what? 😄

to save it in pdc

you need to serialize whole inv

[scenic vapor]

using items w abnormal nbt size

[fast glade]

ok, then the inventory opens half a second later?

and thats it, the only delay

IF u have crazy nbt items

[scenic vapor]

but what if the actual saving throws an error

and disables the plugin

[fast glade]

then they dont lose any items?

u save then clear then open

[scenic vapor]

🤦‍♂️

but other people could

[fast glade]

could what?

[scenic vapor]

lose them

[fast glade]

how?

its not async

[scenic vapor]

yup well thats the worst scenario 😄

I mean thats really up to you

[fast glade]

the worst scenario still results in zero items lost

[scenic vapor]

how so

[fast glade]

how would it?

[scenic vapor]

other people can still have a menu opened

and meanwhile the error can be thrown

just make sure to make it as safe as possible

bcs dupes and data lost is not fun

[fast glade]

no data is lost

in that sceneario

[scenic vapor]

that's why Ive chosen packets which are in this case the easiest

[fast glade]

and how is there any dupes ?

[scenic vapor]

like in any other plugins that are serializing items

[fast glade]

im not using some crazy method of saving, its using a spigot api using pdc

[uncut fiber]

hi, please tell me what should I do. I installed the plugin, at first everything was fine, but then when I entered the /donate command, the server wrote: unknown command

[fast glade]

worst case the player wiht crazy nbt opens the gui, it opens a second later cuz serializing takes long

if the plugin breaks/crashes at then no players lose any items, all players with inventory open have their items already saved, and the player who caused the crash inventory never got cleared

and where im saving is in pdc, of the specific player, so theres no contamination/breaking of the location

[scenic vapor]

if the plugin breaks/crashes as you tell

then players got free items

[fast glade]

how?

[scenic vapor]

and they need to await for server restart

to await the plugin to re-enable again

[fast glade]

if ur plugin crashes the server with packets u have to wait for the server to restart

no different than any plugin that crashes a server

the server is dead it has to restart

[scenic vapor]

I didnt mean server

but just the plugin

[worn jasper]

what?

n

no

lol

[fast glade]

oh so if a server crashes, then you dont have to wait for the server to restart?

[scenic vapor]

[worn jasper]

if I understood correctly, you use packets to send fake empty slots or whatever, your items are still there, just visually invisible. You dont need the server to restart or anything, since the items never left the players inventory

[fast glade]

we're talking about a server crashing

which is independent of the plugin or method ur using

hes saying if the plugin crashes with his method, it doesnt lose data, which hes not wrong,
and im not arguing that, i fully understand his method

[worn jasper]

well, but if it crashes, in the rare case you want to access the players inventory or a plugin needs access to the players inv, imagine it gets the inventory before the items are back.

you have 0 control over that

[fast glade]

if the server is crashed... then none of what ur saying happens

[worn jasper]

💀

[marble heart]

hahhahahhaha

[worn jasper]

anyways, tldr, get some common sense. Better a bug be an actual bug or visual bug? Take your answer, and apply it to this.

I am going to go catch my plane

adios

[fast glade]

idk, im just asking to explain how it causes issues, and ur reponse is how the packet method doesnt cause issues, (which i never said it didnt)
then when the explaination comes out, im saying how it doesnt happen with this method, and ur circling back to well the packet method works! without actually saying how the method i said causes issues

im not asking how the packet method is better, i understand how it works

[worn jasper]

god I am losing braincells

take me with you larkyy

shall we go get a cup of tea my friend?

[fast glade]

can we just stop saying comments like that?

like are w enot trying to help?

[worn jasper]

you seem to not want help

[scenic vapor]

what abt mcdonalds

[fast glade]

im just asking for an explaination

and no one is explaining, just saying theres an issue

[worn jasper]

I mean, depends, who pays?

[scenic vapor]

youuu? xD

[worn jasper]

Larky already mentioned some and so did I lol.

[worn jasper]

pain

[scenic vapor]

if you decide to use packets anyways, you can take a look into my repo where Ive done the exact thing
https://github.com/MrLarkyy/AquaticShopExtension

The code is not the best as it was the first try of playing around w ShopGUI+, but it was working fine

[worn jasper]

TLDR of the holy explanation is that messing with files is unpredictable.

I am actually surprised command panels does it like that, about to delete it from my plugin list

[fast glade]

all u both did was praise the packet method, not explain how the other method is "unsafe", when u finally attempted to i explained how ur reasoning (which is valid is certain situations) isn't applicable for my implementation, and u keep doubling down reverting to praising the packet method instead of actually explaining whats unsafe

[fast glade]

404 not found

[glacial flower]

go on his profile and i think its in GUIs aswell

[scenic vapor]

Oh its private

ye I got multiple repos for that

[worn jasper]

its our job (actually, it isnt, sadly we dont get paid) to guide you and provide our input, we briefly explained it. We don't know whats behind your thinking and we are not google. You can do yourself some research or worse case scenario, try and see

[scenic vapor]

https://github.com/MrLarkyy/AquaticShopExtension

now

[scenic vapor]

Ive already told that performance wise and secure wise its worse to use your method

am only throwing you my opinions

[graceful hedge]

What’s the other method?

[scenic vapor]

which I guess are something that you wanted to hear

[scenic vapor]

packets

[fast glade]

i fully understand performance at scale (like large nbt items taking time to serialize)

im just asking the security and what makes it unsecure,

you throw out "dupes" and im saying how is there dupes? and if you don't know, then why are u saying dupes? what is inclining u to think there is dupes?

[worn jasper]

tip: your own message contains information about how you dupe.

[fast glade]

what?

[worn jasper]

(the one you just sent above)

[fast glade]

how

i dont see it

thanks for the help guys, glad i joined here

[graceful hedge]

Why are you so upset, im sure they just wanted to help you out bud :>

[spiral prairie]

Okay but the storing and clearing thing doesn't seem too bad, does it?

[hoary scarab]

WorldServer

[analog moth]

please, help

[graceful hedge]

Got some code?

[dusky harness]

did you import PlaceholderAPI?
If you can't import it either, show build.gradle(.kts)/pom.xml

[dark garnet]

is https://helpch.at/docs/ not gonna be updated anymore?

1.19.4 through 1.20.4 r missing still

[minor summit]

1.20.4 is latest

[dark garnet]

yeye, but rest

[robust crow]

@wheat carbon boi

Looks like it just fell off our radar, no reason it cant be updated

[dark garnet]

ah alr good good ty

[graceful hedge]

Nicee

[quaint shoal]

[analog moth]

yes wait

ooo, it turned out that after restarting the program and computer, it works, but thank you for your willingness to help! ❤️

[unborn ivy]

could anyone help me out with a slight issue? i have a class called MineStatus which handles if a plugin's feature is active (via isActivated() method, now the issue is that the isActivated() method does not return true even if it's already set to true by another class/method via the toggleState() method, does anyone know the issue?

public class MineStatus {
    public HashSet<String> activated = new HashSet<>();
    
    public void toggleState() {
        if (!activated.contains("activemine")) {
            activated.add("activemine");
            return;
        }
        if (activated.contains("activemine")) {
            activated.remove("activemine");
            return;
        }
    }
    
    public Boolean isActivated() {
        if (activated.contains("activemine")) {
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
}
``` MineStatus class

I know that it returns false because I have other classes that check if isActivated() is true

[river solstice]

are you sure you are calling that on correct object instance

[spiral prairie]

You're probably making a new MineStatuts class every time

[unborn ivy]

pretty sure i am

[river solstice]

you probably want a static map

[unborn ivy]

nope, its outside of the event

[unborn ivy]

ill try

yep, i had to have a static map for it to work, everything works fine now thanks

[dense drift]

well, that means you are having multiple instances of that class, which you shouldn't (in this case)

[spiral prairie]

Yep

[river solstice]

you should also show us your use case

[analog moth]

it's my Main class (cubeplay_portfel)

public class Cubeplay_portfel extends JavaPlugin implements CommandExecutor, Listener {

    private CubeCoinsPlaceholder placeholderExpansion;
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        placeholderExpansion = new CubeCoinsPlaceholder(this);

        if (Bukkit.getPluginManager().isPluginEnabled("PlaceholderAPI")) {
            placeholderExpansion.register();
        }
    }
//...

[dusky harness]

if (Bukkit.getPluginManager().isPluginEnabled("PlaceholderAPI")) {
I don't think you need this line
Also, how are you testing it? ```
/papi parse me %cubecoins_balance%

[analog moth]

oooo its work

thank you ❤️

I'm getting this error https://paste.helpch.at/niwuzamasu.css when my plugin is being loaded.
Doesn't HikariCP support Java 8?

[neat pier]

Possible Solution Found:

The plugin (or program) you are trying to use was compiled using a newer Java version than the one you using.
To find what version you need, start from 52 which is Java 8 and for example, 60 is Java 16. (8 + 8 = 16 => 52 + 8 = 60)

Barry's solution finder is still in BETA and will make mistakes.

[dusky harness]

why are you using java 8 🤨
Anyways, see https://github.com/brettwooldridge/HikariCP?tab=readme-ov-file#artifacts

[fading stag]

not a big fan of Java 8 but customer's always right :d
thanks

Hey! Is there any way to create a custom NMS entity class which handles multiple entity types? I created one which worked perfectly in 1.20.2 but is now broken in 1.20.4 as I keep getting the error CustomEntity cannot be cast to class net.minecraft.world.entity.animal.EntityPig. I understand why the error happening but I am unsure of what changed between versions and I am just unsure of how to make the class generic again. Any help would be much appreciated (Please ping me if you can help so I dont miss it)

I can get the class to work by simply changing the extends EntityCreature to extends EntityPig for example but I wanted to keep it generic like it was and not need to make a class for each entity

public class CustomEntity extends EntityCreature {
  public CustomEntity(EntityTypes<? extends EntityCreature> entityType, Location location) {
          super(entityType, ((CraftWorld) location.getWorld()).getHandle());
          this.e(location.getX(), location.getY(), location.getZ());
          ((CraftWorld) location.getWorld()).addEntity(this, CreatureSpawnEvent.SpawnReason.CUSTOM);
  }
  
  // ... Pathfinding and Behaviour modification

}

// Function I use in the spawning class to convert the spigot entity to the minecraft entity
public EntityTypes<? extends EntityCreature> convertEntityType(EntityType entityType) {
  return switch (entityType) {
    case PIG -> EntityTypes.aw;
    case COW -> EntityTypes.u;
    case CHICKEN -> EntityTypes.r;
    case SHEEP -> EntityTypes.aG;
    case HORSE -> EntityTypes.Z;
    case TURTLE -> EntityTypes.be;
    case BEE -> EntityTypes.h;
    case GOAT -> EntityTypes.V;
    case VILLAGER -> EntityTypes.bg;
    case POLAR_BEAR -> EntityTypes.aA;
    case WOLF -> EntityTypes.bp;
    case PARROT -> EntityTypes.au;
    //case BAT -> EntityTypes.g;
    default -> null;
  };
}

is registering events and initializing the plugin ASYNC bad?

or even possible

basically making onEnable async if that makes sense

[sterile hinge]

might be a bad idea with little benefit

but depends on what you want to achieve I guess

[dusty frost]

whatever you want to do, you can most likely accomplish by just scheduling an async task in your onEnable

[river solstice]

any possible drawbacks?

Im kinda working on a dumb module system, where I upload a new jar file and it reloads the new module and reregisters the listeners and whatever

thing is its sometimes heavy and blocks the main thread, making players unhappy with tps drops

[spiral prairie]

Those things are most literally always try it and see

[dusty frost]

yeah I mean you should probably just like, restart the server and have scheduled maintenance when you want to change jars

even better if you're using a proxy cause you can just move people to another server or the hub during

[river solstice]

I guess so

[proud lodge]

My issue not really into plugins but the map I have is not shown on 1.20
It works 1.8-1.19.4 but not 1.20
I spawn in a random generated map not the map I wanted

[marble heart]

is there an event for the spawn of the wandering trader, so i can cancel it and he wont show up randomly in islands :/ ?

[dense drift]

probably https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/entity/CreatureSpawnEvent.html with SpawnReason = NATURAL ?

[tight junco]

theres a gamerule for it

[fast glade]

Vanilla command, no need for a plugin unless u want it disabled only in specific areas /gamerule doTraderSpawning false

[marble heart]

lmao

[marble heart]

thank uuu

[wispy terrace]

How can I make a placeholder expansion that will send requests via http to the api and receive a response from it without delaying the main thread

[lyric gyro]

Anyone a 5m dev?

[minor summit]

I'm only a 10x dev, sorry

[dense drift]

5 million $? Sure

[heavy bluff]

yo pls help me in #placeholder-api

[fading stag]

Not sure if it is possible
I'd probably create a variable that I update in like every 5 secs

[merry knoll]

cache value and update on change if possible ideally

[dark garnet]

is it possible to modify the NBT (PDC) of an offline player? maybe using something like item nbt api?

[proud pebble]

can i ask why your wanting to do that?

[dark garnet]

im currently storing player's data using PDC, but upon adding new features, that data is now needed if the player is offline

[proud pebble]

you probs shouldnt store that data in pdc then

afaik player nbt data isnt fully loading till they are online to save on ram or smth

[dark garnet]

oh

[dark garnet]

would "3rd-party" storage be the only alternative then (i.e. yml, sql, etc...)?

[proud pebble]

probably

[dark garnet]

[proud pebble]

like you could manually load the player's nbt data but if you arent already using nms then you cant

[dark garnet]

yeah that just sounds scary too lmao

[proud pebble]

json or some either sql or nosql db would be best

[dark garnet]

json better than yml?

[proud pebble]

for player data storage yeah probably

yaml is just a modified version of json with some extra speed issues

ur better off just using json from the start

[dark garnet]

oh true

hmhm alright

[dense drift]

I like hocon more for configs, json is annoying because you can't write comments unless the lib you use can ignore them ig

[graceful hedge]

You could maybe parse it as yml and use yml semantical comments

Hi, I'm having some problems with my server launching. I can launch magma on its own, and i can launch my server files WITHOUT magma on its own, but when I try to use magma as the launch point for my start.bat on my server, i get this crash report: https://paste.helpch.at/cexobugude.yaml

I've already tried reconfiguring FoamFix, which is a mod I'm using, however even though it tends to hang on that line of code, it crashes despite removing it.

is this the right place ?

[pure crater]

Not really, this is more about coding related problems

You shouldn't use hybrids because you will experience issues like those -- it's likely some magma version issue

[autumn niche]

yeah.

i really just wanna be able to use voice chat on an existing modpack

i dont want my community to have to manually download from somewhere else

none of them are tech savvy lmao

[pure crater]

Have you tried https://modrinth.com/plugin/simple-voice-chat-discord-bridge

Oh wait nevermind it's fabric only

[autumn niche]

i think im just gonna make a custom modpack, itll be way easier

i feel bad because i already made the map for it and everything

[hoary scarab]

Anyone have an example of the new PlayerProfile portion of the API? Its not loading textures for me.

PlayerProfile profile = Bukkit.createPlayerProfile(uuid);
PlayerTextures playerTextures = profile.getTextures();
playerTextures.setSkin(url);
//profile.setTextures(playerTextures);
//profile.update();
headMeta.setOwnerProfile(profile);

getLogger().info("DEBUG (Skin-URL) >> "+url);

[sterile hinge]

you never call update on the profile

[river solstice]

odd question, is it possible access bukkit/my plugin data from springboot if they are in separate jar files?

[hoary scarab]

I've tested with it. Commented it just to show I know about it.

[sterile hinge]

well you need to wait until the future finishes, obviously

[hoary scarab]

Will try that. One sec

[dusty frost]

uh, if you load it?

[hoary scarab]

Even just running profile = profile.update().get(); its not rendering.

[sterile hinge]

what's headMeta? and what do you do with it afterwards?

[hoary scarab]

🤦

Its SkullMeta I forgot to set the itemstacks meta.
NVM still not rendering.

[dusty frost]

depends on what you're trying to load, like a copy of the code? the plugin data as yaml or something? or are you trying to like communicate with the server as it's running?

[river solstice]

I mean if I run a separate instance of spring, outside the "plugin ecosystem".
If I add my plugin as a library/dependency. Will I be able to access the plugin data if the server is running? I'm not too familiar with java VM schenanigans

[river solstice]

yeah, basically this.

[dusty frost]

which one lol

[river solstice]

I'm aware of the built-in solutions like mcspring, springlify, just not what I'm looking for. I want a separate spring application, outside of the server.

[river solstice]

oh, I read the last sentence and replied to that lol

are you trying to like communicate with the server as it's running?

[dusty frost]

depends on the direction you want, I use HTTP/REST to communicate from servers -> website

if you want the other way around, RCON is probably your best bet

we use Pterodactyl Panel, so I end up using their REST API to send commands to the proxy sometimes

I also ended up using the LuckPerms REST API thingy for doing role changes and stuff, since you can just directly interact with it and get validation

[river solstice]

if this makes any sense

[dusty frost]

oh I see, so you want to fetch data from the servers

[river solstice]

I've been using Spark, had some problems with it so I switched to Javalin, but ideally I'd like to run the HTTP server outside the server

[dusty frost]

ah yeah I was gonna say, Javalin is probably your best bet

just runnign it on a single thread per server should be pretty light

but I guess it depends on what you're doing, if you just want getOnlinePlayers or similar, you could store the data in Redis or something and keep it up to date
