yup

hidden harness
#

same in the log

#

not switching server

golden gust
#

Unless theres an error in the server logs not too sure

hidden harness
#

There is nothing, the last thing i see is Done!

golden gust
#

You could try making the proxy join that server by default and see if it says anything

#

HEy cat is waterdog supported? i saw it the other day

#

its like waterfall with PE support

#

i guess

#

idfk

hidden harness
#

@golden gust It just moved me to the the previous default server

golden gust
#

Please don't ping me

limber knotBOT
#

@void void it's probably supported by their authors xD

void void
#

.kill phoenix616

limber knotBOT
#

rips phoenix616's intestines and uses them as a skipping rope.

void void
#

good

golden gust
#

You'll need to look into enabling debug mode and seeing if you can find something useful, mod support and waterfall is basically shaky as some mods just are not happy with it

limber knotBOT

🤔

golden gust
#

Is discord being stupid for anybody else?

#

Taking a good amount of time to send messages

#

Is discord being stupid for anybody else?

void void
#

little bit yes

woven otter
#

depends on what do you mean by that

void void
#

little bit yes

golden gust
#

rip

hidden harness
#

sorry, will not do that

wide chasm
#

Yes, it's being stupid for me too

void void
#

little bit yes

#

thanks discord

woven otter
cedar spade
#

Discord isn't loading some channels for me but I'm not having any issues with sending messages

wide chasm
#

Yes, it's being stupid for me too

void void
#

i sent a message, took a pic of the msg sending, sent the link to the pic
that sent, so i resent the original message twice and it finally sent way out of sync

#

good job, discord-san

wheat quarry
golden gust
#

huggles rsnapshot

wheat quarry
#

works

limber knotBOT
#

btw. there is rsnapshot-ng, anyone tried that yet? xD

#

nop

#

hm

#

interesting, that bot message didn't go through for me

void void
#

me while watching my messages fail to send

limber knotBOT
#

-ng doesn't really seem to offer anything major over rsnapshot

#

some of the ideas seem useful but haven't really found the need yet ¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

just use irc ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

void void
#

blegh. speaking of irc.

#

im broke atm, so my dedi's gonna go down including my IRC rip.

#

unless my broke ass finds money and pays for it somehow

finite wave
limber knotBOT
#

should probably be fixed in bukkit too 🤔

#

also the same people probably also don't realise that getPlayer(String) also gets players that partionally match the name xD

#

yay mirc

void void
#

Is it safe 1.14.1 now to use?

limber knotBOT
#

no

#

sweet

finite wave
#

People are suggesting datapacks now

limber knotBOT
#

I mean I guess they work for people not wanting to write/find plugins xD

finite wave
#

“Best way to do is without a plugin”

limber knotBOT
#

"plugins are the devil"

#

also if datapacks support itemstacks rather than materials natively then that might actually work better

void void
wide chasm
#

I personally only use Skript with an integrated Skript parser, directly inside the server.

finite wave
#

It might be easier not sure if it’s bettee

limber knotBOT
#

ok, datapacks only support materials/item IDs so you still need a plugin ¯_(ツ)_/¯

finite wave
#

You’re staff on spigot ew

quasi valley
#

it can probably be done with some PrepareItemCraftEvent fishery, but it makes sense that they just use materials

limber knotBOT
#

.lart @finite wave

#

enrolls @finite wave in Visual Basic 101.

finite wave
#

Oh noe

#

.lart phoenix616

limber knotBOT
#

takes phoenix616 out at the knees with a broken pool cue.

#

why 1.14 sill being called 1.14?

finite wave
#

?

limber knotBOT
#

there is no branch for 1.14.1

finite wave
#

Oh

#

Well to be honest what does it mattwr

limber knotBOT
#

kinda weird. See leaf has made some commits etc today

#

well yeah if you want to checkout a branch

#

say I want to grab a folder from my backup server, how do I output it as a folder?

#

using curl

#

tar (and ideally gz) it

#

there we go I forgot to tar it

finite wave
#

Smh

limber knotBOT
#

well im just testing the command getting used to it jan >_>

finite wave
#

That’s not curl now is it holyfather

limber knotBOT
#

ah curl

#

thanks, got it all figured out

#

now how would I go about deleting files on a backup server that can only be accessed via FTP on my server's IP?

#

there's a couple random test files in there that I want to get rid of now haha

finite wave
limber knotBOT
#

I feel like I'm missing some context?

finite wave
#

Nope

#

That’s all the context i have too

limber knotBOT
#

also iirc I've seen that picture a couple months ago

#

(with no context either xD)

#

barty why curl? tar czf free-dingleberry.tar.gz your-dingleberry-folder && curl -s free-dingleberry.tar.gz

#

would use scp > wget > curl

#

using wget over curl

#

wat

#

because i know i can use --limit-rate

#

because this is all new to me

#

phoenix616, this I gotta hear. Why curl over wget?

#

for a big tar

#

googling finds me curl path -Q "filename"

#

I just find the options curl provides better than wgets ¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

in the end they probably do (almost) the same thing I guess?

#

personally I would use scp but thats another story.

#

I personally would use rsync ;P

#

or that ofc

#

if I was making lots of backups

#

but for his case wget might actually be better if he doesn't want to tar/zip the files before as wget apparently supports recursive downloads? Oo

#

(needs to have the files indexed I guess?)

#

what I was thinking

#

also "Wget can be typed in using only the left hand on a qwerty keyboard!" xD

green garden
limber knotBOT
#

heh guess so. That is lazy on a scale that even I can appreciate!

#

all i want to do is 1. shove my tar.gz onto a backup, 2. figure out how to delete stuff on my backup, and 3. retrieve the tar.gz from the backup. I figured out 1 and 3, cannot figure out 2

#

just ssh into the backup server and remove the files? 🤔

#

Think he wants got retrieve the tar from a remote backup?

stiff yarrow
#

Maybe he doesn't have remote SSH

limber knotBOT
#

barty can you ssh to that server?

stiff yarrow
#

And he's paying $5 a month for someone else to get full control

limber knotBOT
#

i'll be a little more clear, it's an ovh backup drive that can only be accessed via FTP from my dedi's IP

#

so delete it via ftp?

static badge
#

f_thinking

#

is that ur filthy weeaboo emotes

limber knotBOT
#

wait, that is for windows, wat

#

or not, it says linux at the top

#

I'm confused xD

#

ah ... have not use that protocol in a while

#

he wants to use curl to get a ftp file right?

#

i already figured out how to use curl to put/get the file, i just want to know how to delete a file on the ftp server

finite wave
#

Just connecr to it

limber knotBOT
#

you can use curl for ftp iirc

#

yes holyfather that's the syntax i used to download the file

#

not sure if there is a flag to delete a file

finite wave
limber knotBOT
#

yeah thats where i am right now

#

ill try that

#

not just connecting via ftp

#

curl -X should do the trick

finite wave
#

Isek

limber knotBOT
#

using curl to send an ftp command

#

mfw

#

barty just looked at man. Seems the flag -X will delete files.

#

gotcha thanks

#

trying it

#

btw is 1.14.1 still having major issues with paper?

#

yes, you should wait for 1.14.2

maiden sedge
finite wave
#

Tbh just wait for 1.14.9

limber knotBOT
#

figured it out, curl -u user:pass ftp://host/file -Q 'DELE file'

stiff yarrow
#

Pretty sure you could have figured this out with 10 seconds on Google

limber knotBOT
#

btw. datapacks DO allow item nbt tag checking for recipes... I misread the wiki xD

#

also it's not like I send you the link with the solution on how to do that with ftp barty :P

stiff yarrow
#

Oh wow Discord changed the status icon for users on mobile it's not just red green yellow purple anymore

limber knotBOT
#

if only they could implement per user/server statuses now...

stiff yarrow
#

Idle? that's a crescent moon now

#

DND ? That's a traffic sign looking thing now

sturdy fulcrum
#

Can I get the no table role

stiff yarrow
#

Yeah probably ask Z

#

although the more you want it the more he might be tempted to reject you

sturdy fulcrum
#

Either way.... figured I’d ask since my partner glare has it

#

I feel left out

stiff yarrow
#

we're gonna need documentation of the lack of tables in your house

sturdy fulcrum
#

Well we only have two

#

One for my pc and other to eat on

#

Is that too many

#

I use paper plates to eat on

#

Does that count

stiff yarrow
#

I've been there PPepoHappy

sturdy fulcrum
#

Too poor to afford a dishwasher and I hate dishes

just a shitty server owner :)

sturdy fulcrum

Can I join

Dm me ip

limber knotBOT

nah

i dont want you stinking it up

or seeing how bad it is

either

sturdy fulcrum

“I don’t play much but when I do... it’s usually on a shit server”

i haven't even been on my server in 3 weeks

sturdy fulcrum

Shame on you

#

It’s probably crashed

turbid spade
limber knotBOT
#

well I've been building my 1.14 server

#

nah it's doing just fine

sturdy fulcrum
#

Does it use papi

limber knotBOT
#

yes dad

#

i'm just using worldborder

void void
#

tfw papi plugin has /daddy command

sturdy fulcrum
#

Daddy was removed

void void
#

when? :D

limber knotBOT
#

rip

void void
#

it was a good gem tbfh

sturdy fulcrum
#

Now u have to /papi ecloud download daddy to add it back

void void
#

oof

turbid spade
limber knotBOT
#

i love that you put the work in to do that

sturdy fulcrum
#

Too many people without fathers got mad and made me remove it

#

Although my dad is dead so I know the feeling

#

Just wanted to bring a dad back in my life but that didn’t work out well

polar veldt
#

what did the command do?

limber knotBOT
#

well when your plugin is used universally by mostly every server, you're gonna get people that bitch at you no matter what they're bitching about

sturdy fulcrum
#

Just an alias for /papi

void void
#

of course its WonderHowTo

polar veldt
#

oh

sturdy fulcrum
#

It made sense

#

Papi == daddy

limber knotBOT
#

i learned about the javascript package in papi yesterday

#

very nice

sturdy fulcrum
#

I knew about that for a while

void void
#

Too many people without fathers got mad and made me remove it
did someone actually make an issue for that? lmao

sturdy fulcrum
#

Yes

void void
#

reminds me that python's master/slave topic

sturdy fulcrum
#

I lost a person on my team over it

void void
#

"IT OFFENDS PEOPLE"

sturdy fulcrum
#

By the way he responded on GitHub

void void
#

.g placeholderapi daddy

limber knotBOT
void void
#

.g placeholderapi daddy github

limber knotBOT
void void
#

daily reminder that bing sucks

sturdy fulcrum
#

And then the backlash due to another person cleaning up the thread on the github issue because it was nothing but rage

#

Drama

void void
#

so that drama is basically deleted from github? oof

sturdy fulcrum
#

My baby momma doesn’t being as much drama as /daddy did

void void
#

yep

sturdy fulcrum
#

There are some screenshots posted on spigot

finite wave
#

Hmm

void void
#

fucking snowflakes

sturdy fulcrum
#

I had nothing to do with the whole GitHub shit aside from bringing daddy into this world

limber knotBOT
#

not a fan of deleting how dumb people behave...

sturdy fulcrum
#

Same

limber knotBOT
#

should've just been hidden by default or something

sturdy fulcrum
#

Wasn’t around so I had no control over how it was handled

#

I handled the aftermath tho

limber knotBOT
#

people are dumb

void void
#

i still want to see that meme

#

starts searching spigot forums

limber knotBOT
#

[12:23 PM] clip: I lost a person on my team over it

#

yikes

sturdy fulcrum
#

It’s in the papi discussion

#

Wasn’t as horrible as you expect

#

Still not my style of the way to respond to someone who has an issue with something

#

Respect and common courtesy is a must

#

Until you break that

#

Thanks for using my plugin

#

😂😂

#

Were you offended by /daddy

polar veldt
#

i use it and my dad isn't alive

limber knotBOT
#

people asked me a few times what /daddy was for

#

on my server

polar veldt
#

i wouldn't be offended by that

sturdy fulcrum
#

I removed it for your sake

#

Yeah I gave out an update to test today

#

1.1:3 but since this api-version shit basically disables the plugin on higher versions I’m doing a 2 version update to support both

#

Not defining an api version means no 1.12+ compatibility

#

Defining 1.14 means it don’t load on 1.13

#

Stupid af

deluxemenu works for me on 1.14

Not the new material system

limber knotBOT

yeah

sturdy fulcrum

It works but not fully functional

limber knotBOT
#

fair

#

i just wanted to import my /help menu, and am too lazy to redo it on another plugin

sturdy fulcrum
#

I got u

#

Updates coming soon

limber knotBOT
#

@meager perch you mean a /shop plugin?

#

like a server shop?

#

like chestshop

polar veldt
#

barty what build of paper/spigot are you currently using?

limber knotBOT
#

or a gui based one

#

22 ken

polar veldt
#

thanks

limber knotBOT
#

you realise signs are better?

#

altho I can't connect to my server anymore on 22

#

like you just copy what you see on another sign and it works

sturdy fulcrum
#

Animate your signs

limber knotBOT
#

I started using QuickShop

#

Very good plugin for dumb players

#

doesn't that use commands?

#

Only one command, "/qs create"

#

seems harder for new people tbh

#

If people can't use commands I don't want them on my server

#

not worth the time teaching some kid how to create a chest shop when all it takes is a brain

#

commands aren't part of vanilla so if you try to keep your server that way good luck 🤔

#

*vanilla survival

sturdy fulcrum
#

Hire a dev and make your dreams come true... tbh the only reason I initially got into development was because I was tired of wasting money making my ideas come to life

limber knotBOT
#

my server isn't a vanilla survival server so it makes sense

wide chasm
#

/seed is still available in vanilla survival I think.

limber knotBOT
#

yeah, different goals I guess ¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

How can i use aikar flag?

#

around half of my player base wants to keep stuff "as close as possible to Vanilla", the rest is semi ok with some modifications

#

put the flags in your startup script

sturdy fulcrum
#

I ended up paying a kid from the Netherlands to get me started with java

limber knotBOT
#

so we end up with some modifications that are necessary (like shops and portals) but they all kinda feel like they could be natural

#

just that you don't have to trust other players xD

#

yes but after i put java right it start and disappear

sturdy fulcrum
#

Lol this is just a hobby

limber knotBOT
#

phoenix616 i feel bad for you

#

sounds awful

#

why?

fresh ermine
#

id love to start learning java

limber knotBOT
#

you have to realise that that game concept got me into developing minecraft stuff in the first place xD

fresh ermine
#

but i have so much other shit cus of uni + managing the community + my job

limber knotBOT
#

your players want a "Natural feel" when vanilla is.. let's just say "feature-incomplete"

fresh ermine
#

i feel like i need a lot of time

sturdy fulcrum
#

I started on classic tho

limber knotBOT
#

yeah, we add the necessary features while having it still "feel like minecraft"

#

at least that's the goal ¯_(ツ)_/¯

sturdy fulcrum
#

Before your guys time

limber knotBOT
#

i see, no grief prevention or anything?

fresh ermine
#

ive been playing since classic

#

the community i help run has been around since 2009

limber knotBOT
#

no, we have that. as I said "some stuff is necessary", especially trust based ones on a public server

#

mhm

#

so shop, region, container and animal protection is there

sturdy fulcrum
#

Classic was what sparked my imagination after seeing what people did with that

fresh ermine
#

they probably wouldnt make it past the queue lol

limber knotBOT
#

my players like having playershops, custom enchants, cosmetics, land claiming

sturdy fulcrum
#

It was nothing compared to today’s Minecraft

fresh ermine
#

one of our devs made one of the first custom software iirc

limber knotBOT
#

even the "vanilla" players on my server like it

fresh ermine
#

id hace to dig on mcforums

#

have*

limber knotBOT
#

the goal is more like "play like single player but with other people", not "play multiplayer without any restriction"

#

ahh

pulsar wigeon
#

speaking of classic, they copied this license twice in the remake

limber knotBOT
#

yeah my server is more "build a community"

#

i actively make it harder to play singleplayer on my server

#

well we have stuff that people can use if they want but we have plenty of long time players that just want to play the game and sometimes interact with the community but want that to be their decision

sorry to bother but does 1.14.1 paper perform much better in terms of tps in comparison to regular spigot 1.14.1

limber knotBOT
#

probably about the same @fluid sparrow

#

both are not recommended for production servers

#

both are unstable

sturdy fulcrum
#

So devs let me ask a question.. what was your first shit plugin

fresh ermine
#

he made one of the first lava survival servers too iirc

limber knotBOT
#

i don't dev because i'd rather die than learn another programming language

#

I mean if you already know one it's not really hard xD

inland fiber
#

Not sure where to report a bug but here's a potential bug

limber knotBOT
#

already had to suffer through C++ and matlab (altho matlab is nice and not really a programming language)

fresh ermine
#

use github issues

limber knotBOT
#

well phoenix616 i won't really ever use it if i learn it tbh

#

@inland fiber that's a plugin bug

#

my career doesn't require java

#

fr.recreative.mounts

fresh ermine
#

also yea

sturdy fulcrum
#

Same

fresh ermine
#

/mount is a plugin not paper

golden gust
#

That plugin is using an internal class which doesn't exist in paper

limber knotBOT
#

or really programming at all besides matlab

inland fiber
#

And this?
[18:45:35 ERROR]: [global] TIMING_STACK_CORRUPTION - Report this to Paper! This is a potential bug in Paper

golden gust
#

(it's part of the old timings v1 stuff)

limber knotBOT
#

what version of paper are you on

golden gust
#

And that one is likely because we're not handling exceptions there properly in regards to timings

limber knotBOT
#

barty: says right at the bottom

#

i didnt open it

#

wonder if downgrading to paper-21 will let me connect to my server again

yep, time to report this :)

#

mvdw is for some guy's premium plugins

because they dont work with papi i guess

More servers use papi than paper

#

Check Bstats

pulsar wigeon
#

yea i mean there's lots of retarded servers

#

go figure

limber knotBOT
#

reee

acoustic pilot
#

Placeholders make sense. A single place to register placeholders for all plugins.

#

And then display those where ever.

wide chasm
#

Good luck testing your mvdw placeholders btw. You need to have one of his plugins installed before you can test them.

limber knotBOT
#

i had to use mvdw placeholders thanks to featherboard i think

sturdy fulcrum
#

Don’t be a hater

wide chasm
#

I don't use his plugins, I only wanted to add some placeholders of my own plugin

limber knotBOT
#

whats wrong with mvdw placeholders

wide chasm
#

Already do

#

People wanted both (yes I know you can convert between them)

sturdy fulcrum
#

Mvdw supports papi so really no point

#

I just wrote some reflection to bypass that stupid check of him

#

There are other scoreboard plugins, don't know how good they compare though

limber knotBOT
#

it does clip yeah

pulsar wigeon
#

featherboard is 🚮 anyway

#

i literally haven't heard anything good about it ever

limber knotBOT
#

stefvanschie: i have to use featherboard because there are no alternatives that really work

pulsar wigeon
#

everyone complains that it's full of errors, laggy, and overall shit

acoustic pilot
#

I think his entire argument for Featherboard's superiority is that it's packet-based.

pulsar wigeon
#

even barty just admitted that the only reason to use it is that the alternatives are also trash

limber knotBOT
#

yes

pulsar wigeon
#

minecraft is just full of trash

limber knotBOT
#

there was only one alternative a couple months ago

#

and the free alternative was shit and didnt work on bungee servers

acoustic pilot
#

There is KiteBoard, but it's not free and it's fundamentally designed differently I think, using the scoreboard API vs packets.

sturdy fulcrum
#

I could say some shit but i is rather not piss anyone off

unreal quarry
#

Scoreboards are shit. I won't play on a server that's flashing all kinds of shit on the side or top of my screen ;)

\o/

limber knotBOT

TAB dev literally said "i dont want to ruin the featherboard guy's life by taking away his revenue screen"

sturdy fulcrum

Kite board is good

#

Niall even handles adding papi support to holographic displays

limber knotBOT
#

billy how else will you know what server you're on if it isnt constantly reminding you!

acoustic pilot
#

Yeah scoreboards are just annoying

#

Take up too much real estate

limber knotBOT
#

if your GUI scale is 5 i understand that byte

Tab list is more than enough to convey what server one is playing on, or balance, or whatever lol

They're both whack but one is out of the way.

You know what else I hate? Particle trails on players.

wide chasm

But if scoreboard had that option as well, I'd prefer that

sturdy fulcrum

Pretty sure maxim added a command to hide it

limber knotBOT

stefvan

sturdy fulcrum
#

Buy featherboard for that option

limber knotBOT
#

my scoreboard literally says "use /fb toggle to hide"

#

for the brainlets

wide chasm
#

Yes, FeatherBoard has that option, but a lot of servers either have their own scoreboard stuff or disable that command

unreal quarry
#

@meager perch no. They are tied

limber knotBOT
#

ah i see

acoustic pilot
#

The information presented in a scoreboard doesn't need to be visible all the time. 90% of it is useless information.

limber knotBOT
#

yeah mine just gives a little bit of info like how much money you have

acoustic pilot
#

So forcing them to toggle it off by typing is kinda lame

#

That's why I like tab list, because it's off by default, and a simple key stroke away

limber knotBOT
#

oh god how dare i ask them to type a command

acoustic pilot
#

For something that should be off by default? Yes

sturdy fulcrum
#

Good thing I don’t have a scoreboard plugin lol

acoustic pilot
#

Asking them to manually turn off something that shouldn't have even been on to begin with is a hassle, indeed.

limber knotBOT
#

good thing my players have never bitched about my scoreboard

acoustic pilot
#

You'd be surprised at how much players don't bitch about.

sturdy fulcrum
#

I don’t mind them but I do agree they get in the way

limber knotBOT
#

yeah if your UI scale is 5

acoustic pilot
#

I think it's better to have the feature, but make it off by default and let players toggle it on

sturdy fulcrum
#

Especially to show info I don’t care about

unreal quarry
#

@meager perch nope. The client controls the glow color according to team color. Can't have one without the other.

sturdy fulcrum
#

When I talk I know what rank I am, I have /Bal to see how much money I have, etc

acoustic pilot
#

It's annoying enough that you could use it as a nuissance to get people to buy a rank lol

"Upgrade to a premium rank to hide your annoying ass scoreboard!"

unreal quarry

Still distracting

How low did you set your GUI scale?

acoustic pilot

Most people aren't changing their GUI scale lol

In fact, I'm tempted to say a large portion don't even play in full screen

I don't

acoustic pilot

Default scale, default window size

sturdy fulcrum

I don’t

ornate spindle

a lot of people use scale set to auto

It's probably the default scale

players either don't care or are fine with it

I personally prefer a color for the name and a hover for the actual rank

There are servers with like a chat prefix and a suffix lol

you have a shiny prefix showing what your wallet can afford

pretty important for getting many purchases

It's within their power to.

Fly pays for my server ^_^

They can apply the blacklist to the resolved IP and effectively fix the bypass.

$1 to have /fly for 1 hour. Anyone buys, everyone gets it.

i was asking about the mental gymnastics of arriving at the conclusion that survival with /fly is "pure"

so they might not focus so much on romanian servers reallyb

our community has barely any donor perks honestly

Non-creative flight is technically part of survival?

IDK how to answer that with anything that would satisfy you, wiz... Lol

acoustic pilot

I mean, survival and single player prob not the same thing we're thinking off.

survival vs vanilla, I mean

#

You can be survival but not be vanilla.

pulsar wigeon
#

yea maybe byte

green edge

pretty interesting barty

#

not really profitable though

pulsar wigeon

i guess "pure survival" means to me the "mojang experience"

i tried 1.14.1 with worldborder to pregenerate a world - and its extremely slow (3 chunks/sec) while 1.13 had about 50-100 chunks/sec - anyone has experience with that and ideas how to make it faster?

they are the first layer in our industry let's asy

That money isn’t worth the time or effort to me to be a babysitter

limber knotBOT

barty: world generation is extremely slow in 1.14.1

acoustic pilot
#

1000 player server prob generates 20k in revenue (USD) and pays one or two devs $3-4k/mo each

#

and spends maybe $300-400 in hosting

limber knotBOT
#

30 player server easily generates $500+ a month

green edge
#

that's around how much a US server would get

#

for us in romania it's way worse 😐

unreal quarry

I don't like how people see Minecraft as a business opportunity/industry. :(

Minecraft isn't a game, it's a market

an average 10-15$ a day

Yeah premium plugins seems like a pretty sweet opportunity

My server costs $60/mo. And it pays for itself. That's it. It's for fun ^_^

it's passive earnings

so you can do more

That's not the numbers I was seeing with plugins

running servers is a hobby

Charge for support and official builds, and I think you'd still get most people going through SpigotMC resources and paying for it vs compiling it if it was open source.

If so tell me why

I’d like to know

your post about having your first kid

charging for support byte...? uh?

really?

is that a thing?

green edge
#
  • you do frequent updates
pulsar wigeon

how would that even work

acoustic pilot

Well that would be factored into the cost of the premium plugin

stiff yarrow
#

I don't deny support to anyone unless they are being rude

pulsar wigeon

ah ok

acoustic pilot
#

Buying the plugin would entitle you to support

pulsar wigeon
#

was going to say i don't think charging support separate would work

green edge
#

yeah, me neither but they usually deny it themselves

#

since the respecful ones usually are shy to ask

acoustic pilot
#

Seems like the least scummy model of selling premium plugins.

green edge
#

and the disrespectful ones dont' get help unless they prove the purchase

acoustic pilot
#

Make the whole thing open source, charge for builds + support, factored into the cost of the plugin.

sturdy fulcrum

That really made you have a change of heart @ornate spindle ?

that's how you get purchases sadly

ornate spindle

AndGK, an average dev in the US get's ~23$ an hour

ornate spindle

I wish I was paid like that

green edge

most minecraft devs get less than that per hour

pulsar wigeon

depends a lot on what you do tbh

since we also have to factor in support, uploading, getting graphics

if you maintain legacy COBOL systems for banks, there's a lot more money than being an iOS app dev

im a patron myself but i have been for a while, his discord exploded once the videos started being made

3-4 years ago hourly wages was barely even a thing in the MC dev community

people are actually doing hourly in mc now? that is news to me

premium plugins can serve as a nice source of secondary income for a lot of people, imo if you have the skills you might as well dabble in it

You're going to be paying for labor of some form at that size, yes

sturdy fulcrum

I’m actually cool with him and we talk alot but that was the one thing we always disagree on

At a certain point you need external labor to grow a Minecraft server, never seen anyone do it completely on their own.

i will not lose the ground i have made up AndGK

ok yive so you don't mean that obfuscation causes lag

you mean that retardation causes lag

stiff yarrow

that seems like bad obfuscation

sturdy fulcrum
#

If you want my honest opinion though. Premium plugins broke the community when spigot became the main source for modded Minecraft

limber knotBOT
#

IRC will make a comeback

I think that's still technically obfuscation, even if it's retardation

sadly, many obfuscators have really strange methods of mangling code nowadays

seems a bit dramatic to say it broke the community imo

it's useful if you necessarily don't want people to see what you have

of course it does wiz

sturdy fulcrum
#

We need an off-topic channel so we don’t flood chat when people join who actually need help or have questions with paper

ornate spindle
#

pretty sure mythicmobs can work as an alternative

acoustic pilot
#

Bosses? I never tried, but MythicMobs seems it might do that kind of thing

#

I was reading people using it for that exact purpose

sturdy fulcrum
#

They end up here by default

#

Pretty sure

fresh ermine
#

yeah i think our SMP server uses it

#

id have to ask our admin of it

green edge
#

curious how much the big players earn / pay

daring atlas
#

1.14.1 crash thinking_gun

green edge
#

for example Hypixel, Gomme, minesuperior

acoustic pilot
#

Hypixel seniors probably pulling close to or maybe even over 6 figures, I bet

green edge
#

yeah, pretty certain of that

#

at least 60k a month

ornate spindle
#

back when mineplex was at their peak, they were making 220k+ per month

acoustic pilot
#

Profit or revenue?

#

Diff things

green edge
#

but i guess around 80-90k depending on the player's country of origin

ornate spindle
#

no clue, it was when their enjin leaked their monthly income

#

fernando, go to #paper-help if you need help with your crash

#

were you a leaker before, Yive?

acoustic pilot
#

Basically I expect them to operate just like a normal multi-million dollar US company

green edge
#

yeah, they do 100%

ornate spindle
#

a plugin leaker

#

that about it

fresh ermine
#

im surprised enjin is still used

green edge
#

also, clip, i don't think earning off minecraft is that risky nowadays

sturdy fulcrum
#

Yive I still have respect for you and what you have contributed to the community regardless of anything outside of that

green edge
#

the game has been rocking for years

#

and while it had it's downs, it's still going well

sturdy fulcrum
#

Maxim hates you

fresh ermine
#

Xenforo has my heart

sturdy fulcrum
#

Lol

fresh ermine
#

even though its expensive as fuck

acoustic pilot
#

Minecraft? Maybe not, but the certainty of Spigot and the greater community is probably a lot less stable

#

It's essentially a business dependent on a business dependent on a business.

pulsar wigeon
#

i mean, that shit happens outside of minecraft too you know

ornate spindle
#

lol md_5 is on that list too

also I have no clue what I've done for this community

#

not like I make PRs to paper yet

sturdy fulcrum
#

You eliminated buildtools for a while

acoustic pilot
#

What's also scary is that Spigot is almost single-handedly run by md_5, in all the ways that really matter.

green edge
#

it's definetly not as stable as mantaining a bank's IT systems

acoustic pilot
#

If you run a business that depends on that market, that should scare the shit out of you.

sturdy fulcrum
#

Mannn

green edge
#

but i've had stable revenue for a year now off for minecraft

ornate spindle
#

I hate how much of a monopoly there is

acoustic pilot
#

He simply does not delegate, or get help, or is good at interacting with people.

woven otter
#

who cares about spigot when we have papermc

acoustic pilot
#

If md_5 had a fatal accident, Spigot would be dead.

sturdy fulcrum
#

I love him on one hand but hate him on another

acoustic pilot
#

Not trying to say that he should, but that'd be the state of things.

The bus factor is a measurement of the risk resulting from information and capabilities not being shared among team members, from the phrase "in case they get hit by a bus". It is also known as the bread truck scenario, lottery factor, truck factor, bus/truck number, or lorry...

green edge
#

doubt it

acoustic pilot
#

So if your income is based on that narrow thread, might want to consider how unstable your job security is.

green edge
#

he's an introvert

ornate spindle
#

andrewkm used to, but not anymore when he dropped sponsoring md_5 hard

green edge
#

well, freelancing off minecraft generates a good CV

sturdy fulcrum
#

Can’t even submit issues without risking being banned

green edge
#

so in case of anything it's not hard to get a job

ornate spindle
#

wat

#

how does one get banned for submitting an issue

green edge
#

while it's a game, minecraft gets way more interesting problems to solve than many mainstream IT jobs

acoustic pilot
#

Realistically some other group, maybe even Paper, will come along and take over the work of mapping the new releases and maintaining a community, but imagine the chaos.

wide chasm
#

Ask md_5 Yive

#

If your issue report does not follow the exact criteria listed in a post on his thread, you can get banned for that

ornate spindle
#

he hates me to no end, even threatens people I know

woven otter
#

if paper takes over spigot that would be better for the community tbh

pulsar wigeon
#

paper is still a fork

green edge
#

spigot is still a fork

#

😃

sturdy fulcrum
#

If you do not submit the issue in his format and provide enough proof up to his-standards the rules state he will ban you

acoustic pilot
#

Yeah right now Paper is still a fork and depends on Spigot to do all the mapping legwork

sturdy fulcrum
#

Don’t ask me

ornate spindle
#

imagine the amount of plugins finally being able to natively support paper apis 😄

pulsar wigeon
#

spigot is not a fork tbh

green edge
#

craftbukkit?

pulsar wigeon
#

from an organization standpoint

#

only from a code standpoint, since yes, it's patches on CB

#

spigot controls bukkit/CB still

green edge
#

yeah, organizationally not a fork

#

since paper still merges with spigot

sturdy fulcrum
#

Who cares though right

green edge
#

but i personally think it's useful to keep md_5 doing the major update stuff while paper can develop over that and actually improve

sturdy fulcrum
#

Spigot hardly accepts pr

pulsar wigeon
#

the real way to hard fork is switch to MCP

#

:^)

ornate spindle
#

would also eliminate so many bad plugins

acoustic pilot
#

MCP is not mapped quick enough, I don't think

#

Not for Spigot-style releases

pulsar wigeon
#

switch to yarn?
