pog, now you can render text
maiden gazelle
So can someone maybe help
deft wolf
Sorry, I totally don't understand this code and I don't see how something like this could work without awaitMessages or a collector. Also you have
if(embed) return message.channel.send()
in your code which will probably always be "true" so your whole command will always stop there with return
You can correct me, but at least that's what it looks like to me
maiden gazelle
I have a collector
deft wolf
Okay, and how should if(embed) return message.channel.send() work?
maiden gazelle
as you can see embed says "Welcome channel has been set to ${channel.name}!" and if that embed is sent the bot will send the embed where it says "enter the welcome message now" but my problem is that if the welcome message is entered the bot will react with "Done!" or something like that
deft wolf
But your command ends there because you have return
deft wolf
This whole if(embed) thing is useless, you just send embed3 the same way you sent embed a few lines above
maiden gazelle
can i just move embed3 to above the message.reply and then do message.reply({ embeds: [embed], [embed3] })
deft wolf
It's more like message.reply({embeds: [embed, embed3]})
maiden gazelle
oh lmao whoops
deft wolf
Or you can combine these two embeds into one
maiden gazelle
na
okay but now one more thing
how can i send the doneEmbed after the welcome message has been entered
deft wolf
Are you sure that else works at all?
lyric mountain
please press alt + F or whatever the format shortcut is for vscode
maiden gazelle
i dont use vscode xd
lyric mountain
what editor is that?
maiden gazelle
Are you sure that `else` works at all?
ig it does but i can try to end the else befor the doneEmbed
deft wolf
Personally, it's the first time I see such an else in javascript
maiden gazelle
how would you do it
deft wolf
if(something) {
return
} else {
// do whatever else
}
Also you would like to do something with the existing embed when someone actually typed "cancel". Something like removing the old embed and sending a new one with a message that the command got canceled or editing the existing embed because users may think that the bot is broken

For textures I’m pretty sure GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA is the best option
lyric mountain
not textures, just shapes
I'll send u a screenshot of what I mean later
but basically, translucent parts are either going color -> black/white -> transparent
not color -> transparent
wheat mesa
yeah I haven't gotten that far in opengl
your knowledge is far beyond mine at this point
lyric mountain
eh
lyric mountain
actually u just gave me the idea to ask chartgpt how to fix my opengl issues
rose warren
Oh yeah?
I'm saving so much time doing data analysis right now
I'm querying my bot's db to figure out when people prefer to use prefixed commands over slash commands and there's a lot of counting, grouping, alias merging, ratio calculations and sorting to do and it's flying through the statements
it wrote two statements that threw an error but just pasting the error back into it gave me a fixed version
it's a massive timesaver

ChatGPT for writing advanced SQL queries is... <:peppapog:951595681611661353>
Thats what I've found too, for sql its pretty neat
I used it to generate simulated data
It wrote this function
-- function random_id creates a random id
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION random_id(min_val INT=17, max_val INT=21)
RETURNS text AS
$$
DECLARE
word_length NUMERIC = floor(random() * (max_val-min_val) + min_val)::INTEGER;
random_word TEXT = '';
BEGIN
-- only if the word length we get has a remainder after being divided by 5. This gives
-- some randomness to when words are produced or not. Adjust for your tastes.
IF(word_length % 5) > 1 THEN
SELECT * INTO random_word FROM (
WITH symbols(characters) AS (VALUES ('0123456789'))
SELECT string_agg(substr(characters, (random() * length(characters) + 1) :: INTEGER, 1), ''), 'g1' AS idx
FROM symbols
JOIN generate_series(1,word_length) AS word(chr_idx) on 1 = 1 -- word length
group by idx) a;
END IF;
RETURN random_word;
END
$$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
and this to create simulated data, creating rows more frequently over a period of a year.
WITH simulated_data
AS
(with recursive t(time) as (
select now() - interval '1 year'
union all
select time + justify_interval(
make_interval(
secs => (
random() * (
(interval_to_seconds(age(now(), time))) /
(interval_to_seconds(age(now(), now() - interval '1 year')))
) *
(interval_to_seconds(interval '5 minutes'))
)
)
)
from t
where time < now()
)
select
time,
918872882472439838 AS entityid,
random_id(17,19) AS userid
from t
limit 1000000
)
INSERT INTO vote (time, entityid, userid)
SELECT time, entityid, userid FROM simulated_data;
Its not perfect, but it was really neat.
rose warren
Awesome! That is super useful for beta testing a bot feature 👀
I'm currently working out which of my commands have the most use for prefixes vs slash commands:
SELECT
CASE
WHEN command = 'pu' THEN 'pickup'
WHEN command = 'tod' THEN 'truthordare'
WHEN command = 'hg' THEN 'hangrygames'
ELSE command
END AS command_alias,
COUNT(CASE WHEN type = 'message' THEN 1 ELSE NULL END) AS message_count,
COUNT(CASE WHEN type = 'slash' THEN 1 ELSE NULL END) AS slash_count,
CASE
WHEN COUNT(CASE WHEN type = 'slash' THEN 1 ELSE NULL END) = 0 THEN NULL
ELSE COUNT(CASE WHEN type = 'message' THEN 1 ELSE NULL END)::float / COUNT(CASE WHEN type = 'slash' THEN 1 ELSE NULL END)
END AS ratio
FROM logs
WHERE type IN ('message', 'slash')
AND timestamp BETWEEN NOW()::timestamp - (INTERVAL '30D') AND timestamp
GROUP BY
CASE
WHEN command = 'pu' THEN 'pickup'
WHEN command = 'tod' THEN 'truthordare'
WHEN command = 'hg' THEN 'hangrygames'
ELSE command
END
ORDER BY ratio DESC NULLS LAST;
Yes my db is a bit jank
rose warren
But yeah it's ordering them all by ratio so I can see which ones get used with prefixes more often
And I'm actually surprised by the results
solemn latch
thats useful 👀
rose warren
Ultimately with ChatGPT, you still need to know what to ask for to get the results you need, so you still need an understanding of how to get it, you just don't need to know how to write the SQL statements themselves 
solemn latch
It at least gets you on the right train
I had to do a few edits a few times, but thats fine
rose warren
Also some of what it gave me was a bit weird so I simplified it
WHEN command = 'pu' THEN 'pickup'
WHEN command = 'tod' THEN 'truthordare'
WHEN command = 'hg' THEN 'hangrygames'
👀 yeah
rose warren
It's like copilot but for everything
slender wagon
So i got pm2 running on one of my vps's where one of my bots is hosted. The bot was off while pm2 was showing no errors on its logs and it looked like it still was on
I had to restart the bot to get it back up
Is it normal?
lament rock
Is it normal?
the ws connection could have broken and then gotten terminated so, it's likely
rose warren
I just found out from my data that at least 4 of the top 10 servers using prefixes over the last 30 days are Turkish I had no idea I had such a large Turkish userbase I'm stunned 👀
lament rock
for the longest time, my user base was korean until recently it mostly became russian
probably because I have a russian translation
rose warren
They've also been going hard over the last 30 days
slender wagon
the ws connection could have broken and then gotten terminated so, it's likely
Is there a way to prevent it? Some of these bots are for my customers can't check on them all the time
rose warren
I'm literally at the point now where I'm getting so much value out of ChatGPT I would literally be more than happy to pay for it tbh
lament rock
You're kinda at the mercy of Discord's gateway, but if the gateway lib can catch itself and recover, there should be no issue
rose warren
And apparently, shipping, kissing and hugging is all Turkey wants to do
Any Turkish users out there who might be able to shed some light as to why my Turkish users hate slash commands?
I'm very curious
Idk if it's a question of Discord not doing a good job at promoting them outside of English-speaking users or what?
slender wagon
I'm literally at the point now where I'm getting so much value out of ChatGPT I ...
It has made me lazy af
I should prolly stop using it at some point
rose warren
I mean, there's some stuff I just don't have the time to learn and regex or sql are some of them
rose warren
Yeah! I think it's useful for stuff you're not interested in learning
solemn latch
I'm literally at the point now where I'm getting so much value out of ChatGPT I ...
👀 its worth paying for it from what I understand
rose warren
What are the benefits of paid?
solemn latch
mostly faster responses iirc
slender wagon
Yeah! I think it's useful for stuff you're not interested in learning
It does teach u but at the same time makes you lazy
rose warren
Ah
slender wagon
Faster and prolly larger responses
rose warren
It's fast and accurate enough for me on the free version
slender wagon
And limits are much larger
rose warren
There are limits?
slender wagon
Ofc seems like u haven't been hit by one
rose warren
Yeah I'm not a heavy user
slender wagon
You wont be able to use it for around 30 minutes
solemn latch
tbh, for programming stuff, you dont need a ton
slender wagon
It depends from the complexity of the qudstions
rose warren
Yeah ^
slender wagon
And i haven't really been hit with the limit lately
solemn latch
slender wagon
Which is weird
solemn latch
I still prefer bing ai, same thing just has search
and having access to seperate modes is nice
slender wagon
Isn't that very limited
solemn latch
10 requests per conversation, 150 per day iirc
slender wagon
The new gpt will have around 100 trillion params

More balanced for everything thats 2 years old+
so general coding questions, sql stuff etc.

GitHub Copilot uses the OpenAI Codex to suggest code and entire functions in real-time, right from your editor.
solemn latch
👀 I noticed copilot has trouble with standalone stuff.
It's also hard to do followup stugg
Stuff*
solemn latch
Like "when I ran the code you gave me I got this error"
Chatgpt and bingai seem to do really good with those things
Plus, tbh even when copilot was free I had to turn it off.
The constant suggestions just was awful

Not learning regex may cost you quite heavily down the line. I do not proclaim myself an expert in regex, but I did make one that extracts info from JS error stacks.
If you ever find some time to fiddle with regex, a really fun site I found is https://regexr.com
It explains regex operators pretty clearly imo

this changes depending on the locale that's installed on the user's machine
so that alone works
sharp geyser

Ello, I'm working on a new type of economy bot(minecraft based) with proper upgrades etc(don't wanna get into details as this ain't what the message is about), anyway, long story short the bot has a decent amount of dms that could be considered "dm-advertising"(like itll dm you if theres an event running explaining the event, also giving the invite to the bots discord server since thats where events are held), and a bunch of other things like when a major update happens and so on. Now I know normally this is frowned upon, but I'm curious if this is ok since I've made all of the dm messages opt-outtable(like it'll clearly state in the footnote what command to use to stop recieving dms about that feature), and also a bunch of settings to enable certain dm messages(default turned off but if enabled can remind about voting etc). Anyway, I'm just curious if dm messages are allowed as long as all of them are clear and easy to opt-out of, and any more niche ones are off by default and require you to opt-in. Furthermore, when you run the initial startup command it will send you a few dms, explaining the general important commands, features etc. It'll also explain the dm messaging and give you a list of all enabled ones and the commands to opt-out of them. Summary : are dm messages ok(some including advertising links like voting and main server), if most of them are off by default requiring an opt-in, and the ones on by default clearly state how to opt-out of them when they are sent?
sorry about long post lol just curious before i continue with the development of my bot

shell echoBOT
When will my bot be reviewed?
Currently our average bot reviewal times are around two weeks or more.
Because of this — and because some bots take longer to review than others due to their features — we can't guarantee your bot will be reviewed as quickly as someone else's in the past and we also can't guarantee your bot will be reviewed within that timeframe. There is no exact time for how long bot approval can take. There is no way to check your bot's position in our reviewal queue, but remember you're not first and you're not last!
You may edit your bot's page as much as you like both before and after it's reviewed and this will have no impact on its place in queue.
You can read more about our bot reviewal process in this support article: How the Bot Reviewal Process Works.
In the meantime, please make sure your bot follows all of our Bot Guidelines for a quick and smooth approval!

Just a few more months and we will see bing ai premium with more of these gpt-4 new features.
I will be buying the premium for those features.

I dont mind if its $60 a month kek
slender wagon
it's around 30 atm
solemn latch
20usd for chatgpt plus iirc
Bing is still free, but they have to do premium at some point.
lyric mountain
they kinda already make extra by putting ads in windows
which as a paid product, shouldn't have ads at all

@lyric mountain are you decent with multithreading in Java? I need to solve a CME I’m getting by putting a lock on my ECS and I’m not fully sure about how to go about it. I gotta write an essay for a bit before I can provide more details, was just curious if you have any tips or suggestions
I basically have a call to component.repaint() (every update cycle) which signals the rendering thread from swing to render the frames by reading the data from my ECS, but I basically need to (in js terms) await component.repaint(), however I’m not sure how to do that entirely
lyric mountain
kinda
lyric mountain
I basically have a call to `component.repaint()` (every update cycle) which sign...
make repaint return a CompletableFuture
it's the equivalent (although more powerful) of Promise
lyric mountain
var lock = new CompletableFuture<>();
themethod {
...
lock.complete(null);
}
return lock;
on the other side: doTheThing().get()
it won't continue until the CF is completed
it's atomic, so it'll work even if u pass it to an entirely unrelated thread
wheat mesa
Are you sure? Because the thing is that component.repaint() is being run on my updating/game logic thread, but the actual sequence of methods that leads to is on the swing thread
lyric mountain
ye I am, I use that a lot to await stages happening in other threads
wheat mesa
Alright I’ll give it a try later when I’m done with this essay
lyric mountain
Swing will execute the task u pass to it, just put lock.complete(null) at the end of said task
wheat mesa
Should only take me like an hour and a half or something
lyric mountain
sure
the best part about CF is how you can use it to make a thread dependant on another thread's task, but not necessarily the entire thread
like, u can have 2 or more threads that are co-dependant but don't need to wait for the entire thing to finish
wheat mesa
Yeah that’s basically exactly what I’m looking for because I don’t want the method to continue until I’ve waited for everything to paint
Since my rendering logic within the paintComponent method of the canvas actually loops over the ECS entities
If I get lag while I try to add entities, then it causes a CME because the rendering is still reading data (iterating over the ECS entities with a foreach) in the swing thread and my game thread is adding to the ECS still
CF is fast right?
lyric mountain
it's as fast as possible
wheat mesa
Perfect
lyric mountain
it's basically an atomic switch that stops a thread until you complete it
wheat mesa
Exactly what I was looking for
lyric mountain
another example of how it's useful:
var lockA = new CompletableFuture<>();
var lockB = new CompletableFuture<>();
Thread 1
-----------------------------
heavyCalculation {
...
var res = lockB.get(); // need the result of the other thread
res.calcSomething();
...
...
lockA.complete(1.21); // allow the other thread to continue
}
Thread 2
-----------------------------
heavyCalculation {
...
lockB.complete(3.1415); // pass the value to the other thread so it can continue
var otherRes = lockA.get(); // now I need it
...
...
doFinalThing(otherRes);
}
this way both threads can do their own things until they need something from the other
making the final result correct even with a ton of threads
wheat mesa
Is it advisable to use this even if you don’t care about the return value? I’d only be using it to block the thread from continuing
lyric mountain
it is, just make it return null
lyric mountain
yw
u can also extend it to remove the need of needing a return type
I usually just go with Void as the type
wheat mesa
I’ll probably just use Void
Yeah
Multithreading is a pain in the ass but it’s actually quite rewarding when it works
lyric mountain
yep
btw, if ur using threads to process outscreen data it's better to use ForkJoinThreadPool
wheat mesa
Huh 😳
lyric mountain
FJ threads will "steal" tasks from other threads if there are idle threads while one is taking too long to complete
it's more optimized than WorkStealingThreadPool
wheat mesa
Atm I only have a swing thread and a game thread
I haven’t multithreaded the actual engine part of it
lyric mountain
ah ic
wheat mesa
I shouldn’t need to for now at least
wheat mesa
Since this is just for a game my friend and I are making
wheat mesa
My brain hurts after reading all this
Java overcomplicates multithreading like every language other than julia tbf
sharp geyser
lol
wheat mesa
And it seems complex at first but once you’ve done it a few times it’s more manageable
sharp geyser
I wont dare touch multithreading in c++
wheat mesa
C++ multithreading is actually not that bad tbh
They have abstractions similar to Java in modern C++
Like std::future and such
sharp geyser
yea but I have no ide what I am doing in C++ yet
so I am stil learning
I havent had much time to actually sit down and use C++ yet tho sadly
lyric mountain
hm, future
sharp geyser
I have super important deadlines for senior year
lyric mountain
it uses the same naming as java
wheat mesa
My first multithreaded C++ project was a monkey typewriter
That was fun
Especially because it’s super simple and easy to parallelize
lyric mountain
lmao
sharp geyser
remember haku?
wheat mesa
They don’t have threads do they?
sharp geyser
I asked in here about it
No
but roblox engine supports it somehow
it does some black magic under the hood
lyric mountain
misty doing some roblox script fuckery
wheat mesa
Probably either modified lua engine or worker threads
Might even be something like transpiling
lyric mountain
it's a custom engine, Luau
sharp geyser
probably offloading the threads to something else
wheat mesa
Since I know engines like Unity use stuff like IL2CPP to convert C# IL to c++ code for performance
sharp geyser
ye idk what roblox does behind the scenes
I know they use a modified lua tho its called luau
basically typescript but for lua
wheat mesa
@lyric mountain another question, how should I share the cf between classes? I have this method, and I need to wait until the repaint method is finished, but I don't know how to wait for it using cf since I don't have control of the repaint method
Would it just be something like ```java
public void update(float dt) {
// Update other systems here
updateInput();
physicsSystem.update(dt);
world.update(dt);
var lock = new CompleteableFuture<Void>();
window.repaint();
lock.complete(null);
}
return it
lyric mountain
just a sec
wheat mesa
np take as much time as u need
wheat mesa
...in my entire update method? I don't understand really, I only need to wait for the window.repaint() call
lyric mountain
u can also run update inside it
return CompletableFuture.runAsync(TheClass::update)
oh, it has param
wheat mesa
Oh wait I think I understand now, I'll try it but I don't think it'll work
wheat mesa
Wait I don't see how this would work, since the repaint() call is happening on another thread
well, the repaint call tells the other thread to do work
wheat mesa
repaint returns a cf?
lyric mountain
no, that static method
lyric mountain
yep, it's basically the way the promise constructor works
u wrap the task in an async task, then u can do whatever u need with it
sudden geyser
OHHHHHHHHHHHHH
waffle just found out
wheat mesa
ok so it's still not working, I did this: CompletableFuture.runAsync(() -> window.repaint()).get()
It seems like it just does not care about it finishing
lyric mountain
well, not like that
you want to pass the task to the renderer, then wait it outside
so u cant create an async task and await it in the same place, it's the same as doing nothing
show what ur passing to swing renderer
just the minimal methods, I just need to know what ur passing to what
wheat mesa
So the render system works by iterating over the entities provided to it by the ECS, but the ECS is shared between two threads which causes problems when the rendering falls behind. ```java
public class RenderSystem extends ECSSystem {
public void update(Graphics window) {
for(int entity : entities) {
TransformComponent comp = world.getComponent(entity, TransformComponent.class);
SpriteRenderComponent s = world.getComponent(entity, SpriteRenderComponent.class);
Vec2f drawPos = comp.position.add(s.position);
window.drawImage(s.sprite, (int)drawPos.x, (int)drawPos.y, s.width, s.height, null);
}
}
}
Basically this update method is called in my canvas component that overrides jpanel's paintComponent(Graphics g) method
@Override
public void paintComponent(Graphics window) {
super.paintComponent(window);
Graphics2D graph = (Graphics2D) window;
BufferedImage back = (BufferedImage) (createImage(getWidth(), getHeight()));
Graphics graphToBack = back.createGraphics();
renderSystem.update(graphToBack);
fontRenderSystem.update(graphToBack);
graph.drawImage(back, null, 0, 0);
}
Yeah I know I'm not sharing the graphics between threads, that stays on the render thread only
wheat mesa
So the render thread is the main thread, and the game logic thread is spawned in my Game class
and the run method is just a game loop
which calls update on a certain interval
in combination with Thread.sleep for the delay between frames
lyric mountain
and where's the async issue?
wheat mesa
ideally I'd be able to await the repaint call in the update method here
lyric mountain
u can actually do it differently
actually, nvm
ok so, I suppose u want to parallelize because it's making the screen stutter right?
like, why do u need to await the update?
wheat mesa
well, not really. The issue is that when I get frame lag (whether it's due to spawning a lot of entities, or just a spike, or something else lags the pc, etc) I can get ConcurrentModificationExceptions because the render system is in the process of accessing a Set of integers from an ECS whilst the update function continues to run and add/remove from the set
Since the Set gets modified in a foreach loop, it causes a lot of exceptions
Basically the renderer and the game loop are falling out of sync
lyric mountain
where are u editing entities?
wheat mesa
Here's an example of what I mean (ignore the FPS counter, it's wrong because the update method is still called consistently while the frames lag behind): https://gyazo.com/91184c53150e31aba17e7fc72d0943d5
As I spawn a lot of entities and cause lag, I get a TON of exceptions from the event dispatch thread from swing
renderer is reading from entities, falls behind, entities gets updated while it's still reading from it
wheat mesa
Well, technically it's from a call in my testing client code whenever the user presses space, I use world.addGameObject(new Bullet(parameters))
But as for what that method actually does, here:
The important part of this code is that it adds to the entities by doing entityManager.createEntity()
lyric mountain
ok so, for the iterator issue u can simply make a carbon copy of the list before iterating
List.of(entities)
this will unlink the iterator from that list
wheat mesa
isn't that going to be very expensive to call every frame
lyric mountain
yes, the other option is wrapping entities in a getter and using synchronized
this will prevent 2 threads from calling getEntities() at the same time
if they do call it, they'll be told to wait until the lock holder releases it
it's fully automatic, u just need to add the keyword
CompletableFuture ain't gonna help in your case since it's not the issue I thought it was
wheat mesa
So I would do something more like protected synchronized Set<Integer> getEntities() { return this.entities } in the base class
lyric mountain
you should tho put the runtime logic entirely inside that class, leaving only the task of rendering to the frontend
lyric mountain
So I would do something more like `protected synchronized Set<Integer> getEntiti...
yes
no need for this, it's always implied unless u have another variable with the same name in that scope
lyric mountain
ic
wheat mesa
ok so I'm still getting a CME so maybe my problem is bigger than I thought
I don't see how this could be a thing..?
Maybe I should just use a traditional lock in the ECSSystem base class
lyric mountain
it's because swing executes in it's own thread, but yeah, this will be a complicated issue
the correct approach would be to never touch the set outside of the enclosing class
you can have an internal Graphics2D inside your game
let it render whatever it needs to render then flush to the screen when the render() method is called
u can grab a swing component's g2d by using component.getGraphics()
u just need to make sure to remove the original painComponent() call else it'll override your calls (it'll render a white background on top of ur render)
optionally u can let Graphics2D render in a loop and use a flag to retrieve the current frame
which is what opengl does iirc
wheat mesa
yeah ideally I'd be able to remove swing from the equation for anything other than getting graphics from it
since swing is annoying asf
lyric mountain
public var frameRequest = null;
public void render() {
BufferedImage canvas = new BufferedImage(WIDTH, HEIGHT, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
Graphics2D g2d = canvas.createGraphics();
while (true) {
g2d.fillRect(0, 0, WIDTH, HEIGHT);
...
render your things
...
if (frameRequest != null) {
frameRequest.complete(canvas.createImage(WIDTH, HEIGHT))
frameRequest = null;
}
}
}
for example
tho this will still lag the next frame if too much is going in the render task
but won't lag the program, just the fps
to request a frame you'd call game.frameRequest = new CompletableFuture<>(); from inside swing
wheat mesa
Yeah lag is natural in any game, I just don't want to be throwing a ton of CMEs whilst doing it lol
lyric mountain
and await it ofc
var frameReq = new CompletableFuture<BufferedImage>();
game.frameRequest = frameReq;
var frame = frame.get();
This is honestly probably 10 million times easier than relying on swing calling the paintComponent method
lyric mountain
lmao
wheat mesa
I should probably swap over to this
lyric mountain
if nothing is there to render it'll skip that frame, so it won't hold the method hostage
u can also go more bananas and make it skip the remaining code if nothing has changed
by having a custom "state" check before starting to render
for example, using your set:
public void render() {
BufferedImage canvas = new BufferedImage(WIDTH, HEIGHT, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
Graphics2D g2d = canvas.createGraphics();
Integer prevHash = null;
while (true) {
if (entities.hashCode() == prevHash) continue;
g2d.fillRect(0, 0, WIDTH, HEIGHT);
...
render your things
...
if (frameRequest != null) {
frameRequest.complete(canvas.createImage(WIDTH, HEIGHT))
frameRequest = null;
}
prevHash = entities.hashCode();
}
}
this will skip processing if the result would be the same
ofc you'd need to include the player position and stuff
wheat mesa
Technically I can't do it that easy since the entities positions and stuff change yeah
And the position data can change without the set changing
But yeah I see what you're saying
lyric mountain
that was just an example considering only the set
u can make a custom data structure or smth to store the previous state
wheat mesa
The real question is where would I be drawing to, because I see that there's a bufferedimage and g2d object, but how would that get on to a window?
Since drawing to those alone obviously won't do anything
lyric mountain
actually, got an even better idea regarding that
nvm, would not work, but we can continue with the CF idea
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
var frameReq = new CompletableFuture<BufferedImage>();
game.frameRequest = frameReq;
g.drawImage(frame.get(), 0, 0, null);
}
Ahh
I’d still be required to call repaint but this separates the logic out much better since I can call render from the same thread I call my game logic from
Which is an ideal situation because then it executes sequentially
lyric mountain
This will prevent the CME entirely cuz you'll never use it outside its thread
wheat mesa
Yeah
lyric mountain
Only thing swing will do is render the frame
wheat mesa
Sweet, I’m gonna try this rq
lyric mountain
Gl
wheat mesa
alright I'm failing miserably
lyric mountain
What's the issue?
wheat mesa
so I've got something like this (the above method is paintComponent)
And I'm using double buffering so that the images don't disappear
lyric mountain
Huh? The images shouldn't disappear
wheat mesa
but as of right now I'm getting behavior where I can only spawn one bullet and then it's done and won't spawn any more
lyric mountain
Did u remove the super call?
wheat mesa
Huh? The images shouldn't disappear
Once some lag happens the images start to blink a lot
Also you had it in a while true loop but I'm just assuming that was simulating a game loop
lyric mountain
U can also use
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(() -> {
var g = component.getGraphics();
g.drawImage(frame, 0, 0, null);
});
From inside the runtime
wheat mesa
Oh wait hold on
lyric mountain
And remove CF entirely
wheat mesa
I got it working
lyric mountain
Oh
lyric mountain
Also you had it in a while true loop but I'm just assuming that was simulating a...
Yeah
wheat mesa
Apparently having canvas as an instance variable was fucking with everything, even though I was resetting it each time?
lyric mountain
U mean the BufferedImage?
wheat mesa
Yeah
lyric mountain
U shouldn't create it om every iteration, nor redefine it
That's why I called g2d.fillRect(0, 0, WIDTH, HEIGHT)
This will clear the current frame
wheat mesa
Problem is that I'm not sure how to deal with it when the user changes the width or height of the canvas
Since I can't seem to find an event listener to resize it
lyric mountain
WindowListener
It's a JFrame-specific event
Btw, since u have a graphical interface u can later on learn how to use VolatileImage
It's a much faster (and volatile) image type that's processed by the gpu
I'd use it for my game, but it's headless
wheat mesa
Now I'm oddly getting a black screen
this is with g2d and canvas being instance variables now
lyric mountain
Repaint should be called outside frameRequest
And outside render at all
If ur going to put it outside render, use the swing utilities thing
Just pass the component to tge game and use it to call a screen refresh
Remove frameRequest altogether
lyric mountain
U can also use
```java
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(() -> {
var g = component....
^
U need to use invokeLater because Swing dislikes other threads modifying it
wheat mesa
yeah seems to like that even less, just completely freezes up
lyric mountain
Really?
lyric mountain
How are u doing it?
wheat mesa
can't even close the window
getFrame just returns the canvas's BufferedImage
oh wait I'm a moron
I'm still using the frameRequest thing in the paintcomponent call hold on
lyric mountain
It has to be in the same place as the rendering logic
Also I kinda wrote it wrong, u need to use the component's Graphics
lyric mountain
Put a Graphics arg on the render function and call it from inside invokeLater
With your desired delay
wheat mesa
Also I kinda wrote it wrong, u need to use the component's Graphics
yeah sorry my naming is a little bad, window is a class I wrote that extends JFrame which is called Window, which has an instance variable of another class I wrote called Canvas, which contains the render function (and extends JPanel)
lyric mountain
The use it for rendering, instead of making a buffereimage
Hm, I think I understood
Yeah use Canvas' Graphics object, instead of making a new bufferedimage and painting it after
No need to do the step twice
render(window.canvas.getGraphics())
It won't freeze the app because it's being rendered async due to invokeLater
There are many ways to approach tbh
wheat mesa
well I kinda wanted it to freeze the app because I don't want CMEs
lyric mountain
I don't mean that
InvokeLater is kinda sequential, so 2 renders will never execute at the same time
But it doesn't run in the main thread
wheat mesa
so it's rendering now, but it's flickering a lot
(also the background is black but that's an easy fix)
lyric mountain
Did u remove the component's super call of paint/paintComponent?
Else it'll compete with your rendering
lyric mountain
Remove it
wheat mesa
That's the only thing I have in there though
lyric mountain
U don't need it because you're not using components as component
With it there it'll try to render the background (and other elements inside the comp)
U want that method empty
wheat mesa
Still the same issue with flickering
And when the background is black, only one of my bullets renders, but when the background is white, multiple render
super weird
lyric mountain
Are u still creating a BufferedImage?
wheat mesa
Nope
lyric mountain
Drawing directly to the comp's Graphics?
wheat mesa
Yup
lyric mountain
Try removing double buffering to see if it works
wheat mesa
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(() -> {
window.canvas.render(window.canvas.getGraphics());
});
I don't even have it implemented at this point
This is the entire render method: ```java
public void render(Graphics g) {
g.setColor(Color.WHITE);
g.fillRect(0, 0, width, height);
renderSystem.update(g);
fontRenderSystem.update(g);
}
Oh wait
U can remove the argument if it's inside the same component, but that's unrelated
wheat mesa
Yeah I figured
lyric mountain
The flicker is weird, it shouldn't exist because you're drawing it directly
Is the project open source?
wheat mesa
If it helps to know, the flicker mainly only occurs when I hold down the spacebar and spawn bullets
Uhhh not at the moment but I have a repo for it I can push to and open up for you if you wanna take a look
lyric mountain
Even by holding space it shouldn't be causing it
Something has to be interfering
Did u override both paint and paintComponent?
If not, try doing it
And removing super from both
Also make sure u remove double buffering, just to be sure
wheat mesa
lyric mountain
frame.setDoubleBuffering(false) ig
wheat mesa
oh I didn't override paint
flickering still continues even after overriding it
It's less noticeable though
lyric mountain
So it might be something related then
wheat mesa
Also getting CMEs since swing is rendering it on a different thread
wheat mesa
It's because it's invoking the render method on a separate thread
And the render method talks to the ECS which is also being accessed from the game thread in the rest of the update function
It's basically the same problem I had with calling repaint()
lyric mountain
Ig the CF method would be better then?
Idk, it's hard to properly see without the ide lul
wheat mesa
For this engine I need the rendering to lag along with the update function
lyric mountain
Kinda got used to having ctrl click
wheat mesa
Basically if rendering takes a long time, I need the game loop to wait on it before it starts updating more stuff
which is why I initially thought about a mutex
lyric mountain
Remove the runAsync
lyric mountain
See if it solves the CFE thing
lyric mountain
Aight, just finished reading that class
wheat mesa
also don't worry about the input class atm
work in progress, figured I'd fix the renderer before moving on
lyric mountain
Ik, I'm trying to understand the flow
wheat mesa
if I get rid of the SwingUtilities thing, everything works like a charm from what I can see
lyric mountain
Does it?
wheat mesa
However something I'm noticing is that I can't seem to change the color of the background
Despite having ```java
public void render() {
getGraphics().setColor(Color.WHITE);
getGraphics().fillRect(0, 0, width, height);
renderSystem.update(getGraphics());
fontRenderSystem.update(getGraphics());
}
It's still rendering the background as black
lament rock
is something rendering over it
wheat mesa
apparently doing this solved it? But now I have issues with flickering again: ```java
public void render() {
Graphics g = getGraphics();
g.setColor(Color.WHITE);
g.fillRect(0, 0, width, height);
renderSystem.update(g);
fontRenderSystem.update(g);
}
this is making no sense lmao
lyric mountain
Lmao
wheat mesa
You know what, the internal graphics is probably changing at a difference pace because of swing modifying it on another thread
lyric mountain
Ok so, I THINK each call of getGraphics() creates a fork of the current graphics context
wheat mesa
so using the component's graphics might be a bad idea unless there's a solution to that
lyric mountain
Which is why it ignored your setColor call
lament rock
patch notes:
fix black
known bugs:
reintroduced bug from previous version
wheat mesa
lmao
lyric mountain
Did u do the doubleBuffered thing i mentioned before?
wheat mesa
setting it to false? yeah, same issue
lyric mountain
Try enabling it then
wheat mesa
Same thing
wheat mesa
oh boy
from what I'm reading swing does this a lot and the main solution is double buffering
lyric mountain
Eh
Btw, u could try instead of adding the panel, use setContentPane() to add the canvas
Just a theory, but it'll be treated as the body instead of another comp on the tree
wheat mesa
Just did that, didn't have any effect
lyric mountain
Got the pc, now I'll be able to properly read it
ok so, from what I noticed, holding space is calling the render
instead of just modifying the state
wheat mesa
I think I might've solved it
wheat mesa
ok so, from what I noticed, holding space is calling the render
no?
lyric mountain
nvm, it's just high fps
wheat mesa
holding space just adds a gameobject to the scene
I'm pretty sure I solved it with BufferStrategy
I'm going to test then I'll commit what I did so you can see
lyric mountain
gonna reduce the fps to 2 so I can see each step lul
wheat mesa
lol
Alright so it seems to be working
Unfortunately this has much worse performance in terms of what I was getting before for just idle FPS, but MUCH better performance when resizing images down from 1300x1300 to 50x50
lyric mountain
I'll create a new project so I can test a few stuff, be back in a couple mins
wheat mesa
spending 53% of my execution time in some mysterious thread (the other one is my game loop) that I'm going to assume is swing
lyric mountain
mind if I use the sprites?
wheat mesa
not even my sprites in the first place, feel free to use whatever you want lol
got everything working properly (almost)!
I only have an npe but I can solve that in a bit
lyric mountain
nice
wheat mesa
no CMEs, no flickering, no lag until around 60 thousand bullets rendered on screen (I think I'll be fine in that department lol)
lyric mountain
u held space for 1000 seconds?
wheat mesa
nah I just increased the amount of bullets per spacebar to be 100 lol
lyric mountain
ah ok
wheat mesa
I'll commit to it rq so you can see what changes I made
There we go
I basically word-for-word copied the double buffering guide from oracle, so that helped a lot lol
lyric mountain
I'll see in a moment
wheat mesa
Thank you for all the help, that was infinitely useful, you have no idea
lyric mountain
wish I could've helped better, made such a confusion lul
wheat mesa
Nah I learned a lot from this
Plus your advice helped me debug a ton of stuff in the process anyways
wheat mesa
Yeah it does I just couldn’t be bothered to figure out the calculation
