public static String formatString(MessageType type, String category, String configkey, String... formats)
and
public static String formatString(MessageType type, String configkey, String... formats)
#general
austere ivy
oh
just no overloading?
pulsar wigeon
where format just calls formatWithPrefix(configKey, "defaultPrefix", args...)
which is essentially overloading
but with good method names
austere ivy
I thought about that
fringe quartz
Sometimes it helps to think backwards
fringe quartz
think about how you want to write the END COMMAND
like what wiz posted
then make your code make that work
austere ivy
huh that's a good idea
wait but that brings me back to tthe thing, I also want to have
multiline
pulsar wigeon
so make a method when you need that
stop coming up with excuses
and just do the things we tell you
austere ivy
uh
that's just bringing me back to https://hastebin.com/rozufuyoli.js
but with it split up into other methods
pulsar wigeon
that's really not an issue here
austere ivy
and wiz
worn ember
it'd still be nice
austere ivy
player.sendMessage(Misc.format(configKey, args...))
player.sendMessage(Misc.formatWithPrefix(configKey, "customPrefix", args...))
this thing that you gave me
so essentially I want it to read my mind, cause I want Misc.format("you_died", player.getName()) to give me no prefix and Misc.format("msg_prefix", "rules") to give me msg_prefix as prefix lol
pulsar wigeon
I want it to read my mind
please abandon this project and go back to school
fringe quartz
You know what you want, and you know how to do it; you're just stuck
Ignore wiz, cause he's a mad lad
Take a break from whatever you're doing for a bit and come back to it
pulsar wigeon
not sure how this fits being a madlad
but i assure you i'm speaking rationally and not emotionally
austere ivy
rationally ≠ jerk
pulsar wigeon
it is a perfectly rational response to someone saying that code should read their mind
stiff yarrow
@austere ivy you can do this with just signature overloading
pulsar wigeon
not the way he just described
austere ivy
I tried that, nossr. Thing is because I wanted it to be able to have unlimited formats I use String... formats
So it gets confused and doesn't compile.
stiff yarrow
I don't even know what you mean
you need different signatures to do the overloading I meant
pulsar wigeon
Misc.format("you_died", player.getName()) # to give me no prefix and Misc.format("msg_prefix", "rules")
(String configKey, String msgKey, String... formats) and (String msgKey, String... formats)
If you notice, if you put "configKey" and "msgKey" and "format" as the arguments, then..
it could call either one.
they're all strings.
pulsar wigeon
and yes i already told him to make different names
he doesn't seem to understand
so whatever
austere ivy
that's what I'm doing right now, wizjany
issue is, that's basically the same as https://hastebin.com/iwoxamofad.js
but with different methods.
I mean I'll try it, that's what I'm doing right now.
stiff yarrow
I am a bit confused about what you are doing right now tbh
your code is confusing me and I didn't understand your descriptions
I'm not sure what thing you are stuck on at the moment
woven otter
is it reasonable to add 20% of plugin price for long term support
stiff yarrow
define long term support
woven otter
6 months - 1 year? not sure if it would count as long term support
stiff yarrow
jesus
how much are you getting paid
that doesn't seem worth it
to me long support would be like 2 weeks
then they pay me again after that
woven otter
well honestly haven't told any prices yet
Pretty much it's a big plugin and I estimated my prices and amount it will take and in the end it was 45 hours at 4.5$/h
unreal quarry
You're cheap
stiff yarrow
ABORT
ABORT
you're literally working child slave labour wages and offering a year of support
🤢
woven otter
I rather not think about my current commission. I think I currently average at 0.75$/h 😄
stiff yarrow
what the fuck
unreal quarry
Want to come work for me? I'll double your current wage lmao
vestal jasper
woven otter
well not anymore fuck that
unreal quarry
Fun fact: I don't work for less than $20/hr
stiff yarrow
don't even lift a finger for below 20/hr
unreal quarry
And I'm cheap af
stiff yarrow
yeah 20/hr is basically the lowest price any freelance dev should work for
austere ivy
@stiff yarrow okay,
I want to send messages to players like any plugin would.
player.sendMessage("Hello there!");
But hardcoding each message in is a pain and I like separating logic and text, so I put that in the config.
player.sendMessage(main.getConfig().getString("msg_hello"));
woven otter
clearly I have to think about my prices 😄
austere ivy
Another thing is, I also like adding formats, so in the config I can put msg_hello: "Hello, %s!" and then it puts in the playername there.
player.sendMessage(String.format(main.getConfig().getString("msg_hello"), player.getName()));
Another important thing is, is color. I don't want to have to put ChatColor.RED + "Hello, " + ChatColor.BLUE + "%s" + ChatColor.WHITE + "!", rather, I want to put "&cHello, &9%s&f!"
player.sendMessage(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', String.format(main.getConfig().getString("msg_hello"), player.getName()));
(as you can see this is where it starts getting messy for such a seemingly simple task)
I then realized ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes was a giant thing, and it would always use &, so I just put that in a tiny method:
public static String colorString(String string) {
return string == null ? null : ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', string);
}
Now it's shortened to:
player.sendMessage(colorString(String.format(main.getConfig().getString("msg_hello"), player.getName()));
unreal quarry
If it takes you 5 hours to do what most can do in 1 hour, then sure $4/hr is fine.. but damn, get it together soon
austere ivy
But, my server has a nice style guide so all the messages look nice and consistent. This means every message has a prefix.
player.sendMessage(colorString(main.getConfig().getString("prefix") + " " + String.format(main.getConfig().getString("msg_hello"), player.getName()));
I realized, hey, this is getting pretty tiring for every single message. I can put this in a method!
player.sendMessage(formatString("msg_hello", player.getName()));
public static String formatString(String configKey, String... formats) {
return colorString(main.getConfig().getString("prefix") + " " + String.format(main.getConfig().getString(configKey), formats));
}
That worked well for a while.
unreal quarry
@austere ivy go to #paper-dev bro
stiff yarrow
@unreal quarry even if thats true still charge 20 hr 
austere ivy
I don't think such an official channel would want it, you sure Billy?
unreal quarry
You're talking code. That's where code goes
austere ivy
alright nossr take on over to paper-dev pls
stiff yarrow
mtm have you told the guy commissioning you that you're gonna work for slave wages yet
if you haven't then tell him 20/hr
otherwise abort
woven otter
I haven't told him anything yet
stiff yarrow
tell him 20/hr and don't take less
also DO NOT signup for a year of fucking support
charge for support
like a normal person
unreal quarry
$100/call + $20/hr after that for support
Fun fact: Geek Squad charges $399/hr to work on stuff. I do it for $99/hr and stole a lot of their business ^_^
woven otter
Lol now that I think about it it's not actually 4.5$/h because those are features themselves not including testing and what not
stiff yarrow
you are literally getting outearned by sweatshop kids
unreal quarry
Like, spending 2 minutes to hook up someone's xbox to WiFi. Me, $99. GS $400.
stiff yarrow
didn't know GS was fucking people that hard
unreal quarry
It's insane
I applied to work there, said I was 1) over qualified and 2) bad credit so best buy won't hire me
unreal quarry
People pay it
unreal quarry
I once started doing home networks, too. $100/hr + parts. Was great 15 years ago, but these days everyone and their dog knows how to setup a home network lol
austere ivy
help me
woven otter
@stiff yarrow pretty much calculate how much an average worn-out soul is worth in hours and multiply it by 4.5$/h 😄
austere ivy
nevrmind I think I got it.
stiff yarrow
idk why you ever set your prices to personal hell levels
unreal quarry
@woven otter you should apply at Mineplex. Their starting wage is $30-35/hr for junior plugin devs
austere ivy
you get 1000 hours deducted from your life and you get 50,000$ instantly?
So basically think of work as just deducting time from your life, and would you rather have to work that time or would you just trade time off from your life for the money you'd get for it either way?
cosmic raft
@austere ivy no, I'd rather work the 1000 hours
austere ivy
I would too.
cosmic raft
because you don't know what could have happened during them
austere ivy
I think you should always enjoy your life.
You have a very limited supply of it so..
try to find happiness wherever you are..
cosmic raft

austere ivy
that's my opinion anyway lol

That's why old ppl work at Walmart as door greeters. They go insane just sitting at home

cosmic raft
I don't like the gameplay changes that have been done in favour of performance

austere ivy
yeah that bothers me.
a lot.
servers are supposed to handle stuff, not change stuff.
stiff yarrow
@woven otter price will never be based on quality of code, just whether or not it works, complexity, time involved
fringe quartz

seems like they'd have to rewrite it for 1.13
or change a lot of how it works under the hood.
pulsar wigeon
no, it's not a thing, we're literally just making this all up to play a prank on you
rugged tulip
Hey, could someone tell me... how fast is paper compared to spigot?
acoustic pilot
wow it's not like spigot is built on top of craftbukkit and depends on it
stiff yarrow
mcMMO doesn't even support CB and 6% of servers are using it on bstats
austere ivy
oh.. yeah
pulsar wigeon
also did bstats break at some point
huge number of "failed to parse" MC versions
austere ivy
stiff yarrow
I think those are just custom servers
pulsar wigeon
like what
acoustic pilot
WorldEdit is used everywhere so it's not surprising that a lot of custom servers are popping up on bStats
You'd be surprised how many private forks exist
pulsar wigeon
why would they change whatever bstats uses to get the MC version
pulsar wigeon
stiff yarrow
yeah bstats is not accurately counting tacospigot if I had to guess
acoustic pilot
Private forks are often built on Taco
austere ivy
Kash is there a secret fork of paper that we don't know about
there IS https://github.com/TacoSpigot
I've never heard of this before.
upper flicker
There are many secret forks you don’t know about
austere ivy
Wait hold on
pulsar wigeon
acoustic pilot
Any server with more than 50-70 players is going to be on a secret fork
pulsar wigeon
you can literally build your own fork
acoustic pilot
Generally speaking
pulsar wigeon
well, not you because you're probably too stupid
but in general, one can build their own fork quite easily
pulsar wigeon
so why are you so fucking surprised that other people do too?
stiff yarrow
if you play 1.8 its basically a requirement to use custom shit
austere ivy
I didn't expect other people to be as smart as I am
acoustic pilot
For sure anyone using 1.8 is using a private fork
pulsar wigeon
i mean, there's a lot of retarded people in the world
austere ivy
lol jk no I'm kidding you
no I just didn't expect that people would make another fork on top of a fork on top of a fork
seems like a lot of forks
and then that fork of a fork of a fork of a fork for their own server.
pulsar wigeon
oh hold up
bstats just calls Bukkit.getVersion() and then parses it server side
ok
acoustic pilot
I think that returns unknown or some variation of it on a lot of forks
austere ivy
why would a server with more than 50-70 be on a secret fork?
what kind of benefits would there be anyway?
acoustic pilot
Secret performance patches, usually
Nobody wants to contribute their fixes upstream
They're trade secrets
pulsar wigeon
or because they're dumb/bad code
austere ivy
that too.
acoustic pilot
Or a combination of both
austere ivy
sometimes hackier code is better performance for your specific use case?
acoustic pilot
Our network's Spigot can probably hold 400-500 players
Can't do that with Paper
(1.8)
austere ivy
Why not?
acoustic pilot
Paper would shit itself with that kind of player count
Yet, there are plenty of networks that can support it
austere ivy
What about Spigot?
acoustic pilot
They simply don't contribute those patches upstream.
Paper is a high performance fork of Spigot, tf do you think?
Use your brain.
acoustic pilot
Nope, it's forked off of TacoSpigot, if I remember.
austere ivy
TacoSpigot is forked off Paper
acoustic pilot
Off of PaperSpigot, as it was called back then
limber knotBOT
@acoustic pilot [Auto] We're now known as Paper.
austere ivy
LOL
Thanks Korobi
Yeah what a shame they won't share that with us. What kind of performance updates can you do anyway, to Paper? I haven't even peeked at the code that runs paper so I wouldn't really know.
acoustic pilot
I'm bound to secrecy, it's part of the job.
acoustic pilot
Like I said, they're trade secrets.
The knowledge doesn't come easily or cheaply.
acoustic pilot
Edawg made no strong effort to optimize
austere ivy
They then split it up into separate servers, they have like 30 players now.

I thought you got out of the server game byte
acoustic pilot
I don't run a server, I work for a server.
austere ivy
hey wait a minute Electronicboy commited something to TacoSpigot

I got out of the business of running a server.

it's horrible wizjany

I would instantly update to Java 13 if it just disabled that style

i mean, java should ban you

Brian your existence is more offensive than his braces

austere ivy
tropic flame
(wtf "Brian Hayes")
stiff yarrow
better
austere ivy
Nossr, how would I officially get it to do none?
austere ivy
Sometimes I don't want a prefix, I just want it to format and color code for me.
tropic flame
As far as I know this style is called Allman
public static void main(String[] args)
{
}```No, I guess, but how would I get there?
stiff yarrow
then you need to add case none back in
unreal quarry
Eww @tropic flame get it away!
stiff yarrow
I told you to remove it because it just did fall through to default
tropic flame
@unreal quarry nossr asked for it I'm sorry
stiff yarrow
which is redundant
tropic flame
I personally prefer 1TBS 🤷
austere ivy
Nossr, sometimes I need to use NONE.
void void
are fall throughs allowed in java?
stiff yarrow
then you need to add it back
austere ivy
Fall throughs are allowed.
stiff yarrow
fall through doesn't work if you return
austere ivy
Nossr is there a way that you could syntactically correct while going straight to default?
void void
what language doesnt allow them
austere ivy
if I do Type.NONE and NONE isn't officially in the enum, it won't work.
Similarly, if I don't have DEFAULT: it might have an error.
woven otter
use this for automatic formatting:
https://github.com/RubbaBoy/CodeFormatter/
austere ivy
well
if there's ever somehow an error and it gets to default it just won't add a prefix
better than everything dying
other than return colorString("&" + config.getString(category + "_color") + "&l> " + formattedString); I feel like everything is okay.
oh wait I can just
How's that?
I can just put &c instead of just "c" and it'll make more sense in the config anyway
stiff yarrow
@austere ivy why have a type none if its just doing what default does
austere ivy
because I can't order an ENUM to be anything other than what it's specified as
oh
you're saying keep NONE in the enum
but just don't have it as a case?
in the switch statement?
austere ivy
NONE is because sometimes I want it to handle formatting and color for me.
stiff yarrow
in the form it is in
austere ivy
I guess default would never really be able to get reached.
austere ivy
I was doing that before
nossr
but if something somehow goes wrong and a wrong type gets in there
the messages will be appearing as "null"
which is very non-helpful to debugging
stiff yarrow
because you have to return
and a switch statement is conditional
you could replace case none with default
its the same thing
if you have cases for the other enums
austere ivy
so like I said before
stiff yarrow
which is why I told you to remove none originally
stiff yarrow
well you made it sound like NONE was going to do something different
I misunderstood you
austere ivy
it.. does.
stiff yarrow
its different than what default does?
stiff yarrow
then remove it
stiff yarrow
I mean you could have it there it just looks UGLY af to me
either remove default or remove none
err
austere ivy
Okay, so MULTI, PREFIX, and NONE, are all unique. They do something different.
stiff yarrow
when I say remove default I mean make it return null
austere ivy
I can technically
and you said make it return null
I say to that, if somehow SOMEHOW an incorrect type gets in there, I would rather it just default to NONE rather than doing a silly thing and making me debug trying to find out why it's returning null.
stiff yarrow
case PREFIX:
return colorString(config.getString(category + "_prefix") + " " + formattedString);
case MULTI:
return colorString(config.getString(category + "_color") + "&l> " + formattedString);
case NONE:
return colorString(formattedString);
default:
return null; // your ide shuts the fuck up
```your argument is "an incorrect type will never get in there"
hold up
my ide isn't complaining in the first place
stiff yarrow
its not complaining because you have fall through
stiff yarrow
I would not put your code under default if its only for NONE
default is just return null to make it stfu
stiff yarrow
yes this is better because if you add more ENUMs then your default returns null like a good boi
austere ivy
because in my head, IF something something goes wrong
it returns null
which breaks literally everything
stiff yarrow
you have only 3 enums variants of whatever the fuck type you made it
the only thing going wrong is you adding a new enum and not adding to that switch
btw if you want you can have default throw a custom exception too
austere ivy
eh ok
stiff yarrow
throw new YouDoneFuckedUpException();
stiff yarrow
do not name your enum Type
austere ivy
that's what I was gonna say
but you know what's infuriating?
every single time I do player.sendMessage I have to type out
MessageType.NONE
EVERY SINGLE TIME
stiff yarrow
you can
austere ivy
stiff yarrow
what?

@pastel pivot technically you are not
and they own it
code without license is copyright to the maker
you use stack overflow as an example
not to copy paste
limber knotBOT
okay thanks.
austere ivy
player.sendMessage(formatString(MessageType.NONE, "tfc", "my_msg", player.getName());
player.sendMessage(formatString(MessageType.NONE, "tfc", "my_msg", player.getName());
player.sendMessage(formatString(MessageType.NONE, "tfc", "my_msg", player.getName());
vs
player.sendMessage(formatString(MT.NONE, "tfc", "my_msg", player.getName());
player.sendMessage(formatString(MT.NONE, "tfc", "my_msg", player.getName());
player.sendMessage(formatString(MT.NONE, "tfc", "my_msg", player.getName());
Which is easier to read at a glance
this is the most stupid question I've ever asked
what am I doing
goodbye
also I decided on MsgType, it gets the job done but it's not MessageType
stiff yarrow
bro if you really want to be lazy
static import the enum
beware of namespace conflicts
tho
with a static import you can just write NONE
its like the wild west
Java normally doesn't let you blow your dick off but you can bend it sometimes
also you need to stop being so OCD about how things look

nossr50: In particular I am using parts of the code from this site https://www.java-blog-buch.de/d-plugin-entwicklung-in-java/ atm. So actually I am not allowed to do that, unless I ask the author?
limber knotBOT
Sorry, it's german ..
stiff yarrow
I doubt he'd ever come after you
but you should generally write your own code
and use guides as examples
limber knotBOT
It's not that I just copied it, but the principle is the same ..
stiff yarrow
code that has no license is copyright to the owner so it is technically a copyright issue if you use it without asking
but only he can copystrike you anyways
if you didn't copy it you are fine
I wouldn't worry too much about it
just don't go wholesale lifting code
limber knotBOT
Okay thanks. Actually I don't care much about it, I am just curious ..
stiff yarrow
well you should care 
@austere ivy also you should turn the string literals into constants
ctrl + alt + c
austere ivy
nossr
also
I'm just saying it should INFER enums
like
formatString(MsgType type, String category, String configKey, Object... formats) {
"oh okay this one HAS to take MsgType enum so I'll do MsgType"
kinda like the diamond
stiff yarrow
if you want to do that retarded shit use polymorphism
austere ivy
List<String> stringList = new List<>
see that how it just infers the second part
magic
how on earth would polymorphism help me solve that
the heck?
austere ivy
what
stiff yarrow
and you should feel bad for wanting it
austere ivy
gonna be honest I've never really used polymorphism
stiff yarrow
polymorphism is a large part of the reason OO even exists
austere ivy
I'm gonna assume it's like dependency injection
stiff yarrow
no its nothing like that
austere ivy
25 dollar name for a 5 cent topic?
no not like dependency injection but
25 dollar name for a 5 cent topic
stiff yarrow
well I guess in some retarded skewed way you could think of it like dependency injection like if you got really high
and then thought about it
just remember if you're using polymorphism as magic numbers
austere ivy
oh I'VE GOT IT
stiff yarrow
you should feel ashamed
austere ivy
SO
stiff yarrow
you know you could do a lot of this stuff just by adding methods to the enum itself
then you don't need a switch case
I originally said you don't need 4 if statements to do this

return null;
}
}
you can simplify this code with abstraction
stiff yarrow
this code makes no sense
austere ivy
yes it does
stiff yarrow
you're not even using polymorphism correctly, and even if you used it correctly in the way I described it would be equally horrendous
stiff yarrow
just add methods to your enum
ez
YourEnumType::getCategoryString(), YourEnumType::getFormattedStringPrefix()
etc
then you don't need a switch
I can think of at least a few ways to remove this switch, this is just one of them
I don't think you ever needed this switch
cosmic raft
that code makes no sense brian

You're talking to a wall kashike
People have been telling brian for the last 3 hours

What does this usually mean? WARN: handleDisconnection() called twice is this normal when a player is forcefully removed or kicked?
cosmic raft
handleDisconnection has been called twice.
golden gust
It's basically a bug, but it's harmless
cosmic raft
can be either, plugin could be doing bad things
the message is from minecraft (vanilla)
golden gust
afaik, it's basically being kicked in a stage where the server doesn't expect you to be kicked

im stuck in china for the next 9 hours, no where lets me use a credit card and i dont wan exchange any cash into yuan
so, guess am gon starve and dehydrate
stiff yarrow
no
stiff yarrow
I told you to use switch over 4 if statements
austere ivy
yeah
stiff yarrow
I wasn't telling you to use switchc
stiff yarrow
literally 30 seconds after telling you to use switch I told you that it didn't need a switch
austere ivy
okay what do I use instead
I always thought enums were gross
they're basically classes, hacked up to be something else
void void
lmao
austere ivy
it felt weird
void void
LOL
stiff yarrow
you can use methods in your enums to simplify that code
austere ivy
the way you can add methods to enums
stiff yarrow
that is one approach
austere ivy
I don't like it ._.
void void
I love when people don't understand enough of a language and call a very useful feature 'gross'
void void
just bc "idk wen do i use dat"
stiff yarrow
well to be honest it is weird I won't lie, but its a feature of Java
cosmic raft
austere ivy
Enums are the same as classes but they construct.. themselves.. as.. it's just weird
void void
lmao
void void
lmao
cosmic raft
why are you uppercasing "enum"
stiff yarrow
ENUMs in Java are basically secretly objects
austere ivy
THIS:
enum Color {
RED, GREEN, BLUE;
}
is the same as THIS:
class Color {
public static final Color RED = new Color();
public static final Color BLUE = new Color();
public static final Color GREEN = new Color();
}
how on earth does that NOT feel weird to you
stiff yarrow
@austere ivy what's wrong with that
stiff yarrow
why does everything have to be weird to you brian
austere ivy
A new field that has different names constructing itself
void void
that's just an array
austere ivy
it looks and feels weird
void void
this is just inexperience talking methinks
stiff yarrow
@austere ivy you should stop focusing yourself over the implementation and just focus on learning
austere ivy
it just is weird ,_,
void void
you could always pick up C++ 
cosmic raft
@austere ivy not exactly
public enum Foo {
BAR,
BAZ;
}
is the same as
public class Foo {
public static final Foo BAR = new Foo(0, "BAR");
public static final Foo BAZ = new Foo(1, "BAZ");
private final int ordinal;
private final String name;
private Foo(final int ordinal, final String name) {
this.ordinal = ordinal;
this.name = name;
}
public final int ordinal() {
return this.ordinal;
}
public final String name() {
return this.name;
}
@Override
public String toString() {
return this.name;
}
@Override
public final boolean equals(final Object that) {
return this == that;
}
@Override
public final int hashCode() {
return super.hashCode();
}
}
equality is restricted to the same object
Enumerations come with the added "bonus" of an ordinal/id and name
austere ivy
that's it
this is garbage no wonder no one likes Java I'm moving to assembly

they print money

@stiff yarrow downloads != sales

it is for premium plugins, it also includes gifted copies

since when? each download of the JAR contributes to that count

btw nossr50 if Items_As_Unarmed is set to true do you disable the whole "move picked up item to free slot in inventory" stuff?

this is not the mcMMO discord , and that code is temporarily disabled because its broke and I forgot about fixing it.
I guess it broke sometime in classic

EventExecutor#execute(Listener listener, Event event)
what is the listener used for
?
limber knotBOT
to hear things
golden gust
It's the listener instance that's going to be called
stiff yarrow
@deep shoal I hope you aren't hotloading events still 
golden gust
I don't do that, that's horrible
cosmic raft
golden gust
There was actually a nice bug with the asm executor stuff caused by people registering/unregistering listeners as we'd keep hold of the generated class
shell vine

yeeah tbh "productive" more like sit here and watch youtube and stuff
although, people are looking at me like "google????"
"youtub????"
am i gonna get arrested
stiff yarrow
just don't mention your dissent for the chinese government online
deep shoal
@stiff yarrow idk what hotloading means
stiff yarrow
remember our discussion the other day when you said you wanted to register and unregister events during the runtime of your plugin and you were going to do it fairly often
deep shoal
yeah
but I will do it on my own api
and only register one listener on bukkit
but I am reading craftbukkit's source to understand their system
stiff yarrow
that's a lot better
still don't understand why you need to register and unregister events that often but I'll ignore that
deep shoal
I don't understand though
what the point of passing the listener to execute is
why would you ever need it
deep shoal
to execute
stiff yarrow
the listener is the class that has the registered event, the event is the state representation of that event
golden gust
The event method is called using reflection, the listener is passed so it knows what instance of the method to fire
stiff yarrow
I assume bukkit maps it using reflection and then caches it
limber knotBOT
this listener discussion makes me want to resume work on a minigame plugin I haven't finished yet
RoboMWM: what game
microgames thingy
like warioware
.g warioware
(kashike) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wario_(series) -- Wario (series) - Wikipedia: "The Wario franchise comprises various video games created by Nintendo, starring the .... WarioWare (also Wario Ware), known in Japan as Made in Wario..."
stiff yarrow
have the version strings for checking spigot/paper/craftbukkit been consistent over the last 4-5 years? and if they haven't does anyone have any boilerplate for detecting craftbukkit without false positiving for spigot
limber knotBOT
tf2ware is a good implementation of that in a multiplayer game
I think some server, cubecraft or something, has "minerware" but it sux big time
nossr50: version.contains("Spigot")
basically
stiff yarrow
doesn't spigot come up in the version string for craftbukkit?
limber knotBOT
no
stiff yarrow
oh okay
wario ware is a game where every 10 seconds or so it swaps you from minigame to minigame iirc
limber knotBOT
I see
4 seconds
10 is too long
I have a working version but I think I was last working on registering events to only fire in the world the game is running in
so every microgame's listener doesn't have to do a world check
Idea is to make this thing developer friendly so all u ppls can make lots of microgames easily

actually doing it takes a lot of time and competence
