Is it possible to run an API in a bungee plugin? Like I'm just wondering whether it is possible
lone rapids
Okay, I'm not sure what you mean by implicit else statements troxx, like what the application is here.
lone rapids
Also, I'll change to GRASS_BLOCK and ==
chrome lark
Basically, how many times is that going to check the material? is that needed to check that many times?
wanton delta
@lone rapids implicit else means if (this is true) return; //beause this stops anything from below running
so in your case
naive goblet
if (!statment) {
return; //we return if the statement doesn’t match
}
//continue code```Ye I got that part but I'm not returning anything?
wanton delta
return; //anything below will not run
Also, GRASS_BLOCK is not a material for 1.8 I'm pretty sure
naive goblet
return is to stop a method from executing code beneath itself
chrome lark
You're checking the material type passed in the event every iteration in that for loop
naive stratus
Are blocks anchored at the center? Is 0,0,0 in the middle of a block?
chrome lark
No
wanton delta
no
naive stratus
no
wanton delta
.5, .5, .5
naive goblet
since the method is void we only use return and not return type
naive stratus
Okay, thank you
lone rapids
So I would use return; in order to stop the PlayerInteractEvent?
naive goblet
Any event we use return;
lone rapids
But doesn't it stop if none of the if statements trigger? or when it gets to the end
naive goblet
atletas when using the EventHandler
wanton delta
take this for example
my code will only cancel the event if its not in _bypassCommands
or
this code
not mine
lol
lone rapids
Well wouldn't the example include if (!(statement))?
lone rapids
Ye I guess it doesn't really matter
wanton delta
in my case i want cancel the event if its not in bypasscommands
naive goblet
Instead of:
if (item.getType() == Material.DIAMOND) {
//code if material is diamond
}
Do this
if (item.getType != Material.DIAMOND) {
return; //stops code if not material diamond
}
//code if material is diamond```if it is, it wont get cancelled as it skips that code
naive goblet
Important is to use NOT operator
naive goblet
So we want to reverse whatever we’re actually checking for
lone rapids
Alright, let me update my code and see if that changes anything
naive goblet
Also consider using && instead of 2 seperate statements
lone rapids
Does the 'not' statement reverse && to ||? Lol I forget
naive goblet
Kind of but whenever you’re developing big statements try to really think what you’re doing
wanton delta
otherwise you could just break them up into two different statements to make it easier to understand
but also
back to that new Wool thing
please do not do that
lone rapids
lol one second
naive goblet
Think it’s best to learn the best way asap
wanton delta
use ItemStack#new
since youre using 1.8
youll have to manually configure datatypes
naive goblet
new ItemStack(Material.WOOL, 1, (short) durability)
iirc
the durability would choose color
chrome lark
oh, 1.8, rip
bronze marten
oof material id’s
wanton delta
ItemStack(Material, Count, (short) Durability, (byte) Data)
you want to use the Data for wool
lone rapids
I'm using 1.8 because I want to make plugins for a server that uses 1.8.9, that's the way to go right?
naive goblet
yes
lone rapids
Alright, I just did the implicit else or whatever you called them. I will do the itemstack now
lone rapids
I see this NMS word but I don't know what it stands for
bronze marten
Just do reflections
lone rapids
Whenever I launch the server locally it says "Illegal reflective access" or something along those lines lol
chrome lark
.8, there was never a .9 server, just a string change
naive goblet
It’s called reflection I think. There is a difference between reflections and reflection ?
bronze marten
@lone rapids that means someone is trying to make sometimg private public
wanton delta
I personally dont prefer reflection
chrome lark
General gist atm is to ignore it, plugins need to update and stuff to fix that, but many are pushing that off for reasons
wanton delta
because if something changes in the reflected class, it doesnt show up as an error in your syntax
and only in console
but idk some people do prefer reflection
bronze marten
Just read the error
wanton delta
i personally dont
naive goblet
Well it’s reliable sometimes like making particles in 1.8
wanton delta
when i had to update something from 1.12 to 1.15 it was a pain to go through all the reflection changes >.<
naive goblet
I do never prefer reflection but sometimes it has a good functionality
wanton delta
true
there are some things that just will never change
but who knows.... we had The Great Packet Rewrite of 1.8 lol
bronze marten
The other option is to create seperate classes for each breaking nms xd
wanton delta
lmao thats what i did in a plugin i made 3 years ago
bronze marten
Cursed
lone rapids
What does nms stand for? 😮
wanton delta
bronze marten
net.minecraft.server
naive goblet
XSeries
subtle blade
Never say never
wanton delta
but who knows.... we had The Great Packet Rewrite of 1.8 lol
@wanton delta
bronze marten
@wanton delta bruh xd
wanton delta
honestly the worst part was buildtools
bronze marten
Enjoy updating plugin on each mc update xd
subtle blade
XSeries
Ew
wanton delta
hoenstly the class inside of the version packages has never changed
i shouldve used reflection
but i wasnt very well knowledgable 3 years ago
and i wanted to challenge myself to try doing it that way lol
lone rapids
So for the itemstack (short) durability is damage/durability depending on the block and byte data was the color?
naive goblet
I did a lot of abstraction and interfacing. I did like 3 layers when only needed 1 or 2 :/
wanton delta
naive goblet
@wanton delta just put the durability or damage to 0
naive goblet
It’s deprecated
naive goblet
Use short only
naive goblet
It’s still deprecated in 1.8 iirc
subtle blade
Are you creating wool?
wanton delta
yea
subtle blade
org.bukkit.material.Wool
lone rapids
I'm looking at the 1.7.10 javadoc I think
naive goblet
1.8 colors
lone rapids
thank you choco
naive goblet
Martoph using the damage is fine
wanton delta
...i dont think it is?
subtle blade
ItemStack wool = new Wool(DyeColor.BLACK).toItemStack(1);
wanton delta
yea he did that originally
i thought he was making it in 1.15 so i told him to do it the other way lol
wanton delta
everything is nicer in 1.15
dusty topaz
https://minecraftitemids.com/types/wool I always just use new ItemStack(Material.WOOL, 1, (short) n);
naive goblet
Pvp there is /-:(
lone rapids
Choco, you said I was 5 years out of date. If I update does that mean using the 1.15 jar file?
But I lose compatibility with 1.8 servers?
wanton delta
the fact people want to stick with 1.8 pvp that can be changed with a plugin.... as well as missing out on hundreds of features
im not sure i get it
screw 1.8 servers
naive goblet
@dusty topaz uh damage should be fine. In earlier api you had to seperate iirc
wanton delta
theyre legacy
bronze marten
Can anyone tell me btw what made MC so slow in starting up from 1.13+? 1.12.2 seemed so much faster lmao
wanton delta
they do not deserve support
they know that
besides
dinnerbone is workig on another combat system
subtle blade
*Jeb
naive goblet
It’s gonna be released when?
naive goblet
Exactly
wanton delta
idk if you know
bronze marten
1.8 etc starts up in 2-3sec, 1.13+ 10-12s xd
subtle blade
Choco, you said I was 5 years out of date. If I update does that mean using the 1.15 jar file?
But I lose compatibility with 1.8 servers?
Yes and no. If you use 1.15 API methods in your plugins, yes you're limited to 1.15. If you're still using 1.8 API features, your plugins should still work up to your version
naive goblet
Well spam pvp is the best :p
subtle blade
Bukkit remains as forwards compatible as possible
radiant pollen
@bronze marten security?
wanton delta
PVP can be changed in 1.9+ with plugins :S
lone rapids
It works now guys, thanks for the help troxx, Martoph, FrankHeijden, and ehhh I guess Choco.
naive goblet
Nonono
bronze marten
Like what? @radiant pollen
naive goblet
Doesn’t work as good as if both client and server has the same system
lone rapids
jkjk Thanks for the help
radiant pollen
I don't know. I just know that 1.8 requires a lot of fixes for common dupes and game-breaking bugs.
naive goblet
Like stellar spigot 
lone rapids
💔
radiant pollen
No idea. The game has also grown since then.
naive goblet
I believe during 1.9+ that mojang recoding entire Minecraft and they probably add some good stuff that takes time to load
bronze marten
It only happened since 1.13 tho
radiant pollen
Even loading a singleplayer world takes more time these days.
naive goblet
Well it’s loading fancier now
bronze marten
Mmh
naive goblet
That defo takes some effort to do
naive goblet
True
bronze marten
World creation is ok
bronze marten
But for already existing worlds bruh
How did they add 10seconds of loading time xd
Where does it hang :S
wanton delta
iirc their main goal was to fix water, lava, and lights not being updated on generatino
naive goblet
I believe they ip grab you and will steal ur bank account
bronze marten
:O
wanton delta
because before youd have a lot of floating water/lava that needed to be updated
and a lot of light glitches
then they also redid how trees populate
naive goblet
I mean RTX was pretty damn awesome
wanton delta
i dont have good enough graphics card 😭
naive goblet
Ah rip
wanton delta
im assuming ur talking about bedrock one
wanton delta
i think my graphics card could handle it
maybe not at 60fps
but they block anything lower than rtx 2060 i think
frigid ember
Did you guys see CaptainSparklez video he was on like 10 fps the whole time
wanton delta
woe is me
naive goblet
Let’s go with 1 FPS (:
Yeah it’s requiring a lot
Does BukkitScheduler take a BiConsumer?
bronze marten
Dont think so
naive goblet
Dang it
naive goblet
Yaas
tiny dagger
but it makes no sense
you can use as many external parameters as you want
if you somehow having a biconsumer just execute it in the runnable
wanton delta
me sitting here not know what any consumer is 😭
tiny dagger
functional programming introduced in java 8
naive goblet
L A M B D A S ( <:)
naive goblet
Imagine if it would do the opposite 🧐
bronze marten
Spitter?
wanton delta
i still dont really know why youd use it
tiny dagger
it has his uses
like you can find a lot of uses to it
it's like having a method as a field
naive goblet
Using functional interfaces will often make your code more compact linewise atleast and it provides some really nice methods
bronze marten
Java did a really nice job tbh woth functional stuff
naive goblet
I mean methods like forEach is a for loop though so some methods are not that special
subtle blade
Why do you need a Consumer for that though? I don't understand. You can already target a Runnable with a lambda
tiny dagger
he is doing what i was doing when i was new to java
subtle blade
Bukkit.getScheduler().runTask(plugin, () -> {});
bronze marten
@naive goblet the foreach is nice with the :: operator
wanton delta
ya true
naive goblet
yeah .map() and flatMap as well
bronze marten
Streams <3
naive goblet
== heaven
subtle blade
Streams are a nightmare if you overuse them, which a lot of developers do
naive goblet
That’s true as well
wanton delta
i am probably one of those developers 😭
subtle blade
Both in terms of readability and performance
tiny dagger
i never used streams personally, i feel like it's the same as Optional
naive goblet
I did find out about ifPresent() and orElse sometime ago which is very useful
tiny dagger
yeah, they are not worth using
naive goblet
;-;
bronze marten
Optional is cool?
subtle blade
It was a bad addition
bronze marten
getOrElse is nice
But its kinda the same as the sth == null ? default : sth;
It do be cleaner tho
wanton delta
i usually use streams in place for loops that only have 1 line now that i think about it
lone rapids
Hello good sirs, I will reward you with a view of the product you helped me create
wanton delta
even though i know its slower
lone rapids
naive goblet
Nice
bronze marten
I use streams to initialise a variable
lone rapids
Oh no, it seems to open on any block that I right click!!
bronze marten
Once
lone rapids
bronze marten
Static thing
lone rapids
Is this the problem?
naive goblet
Using the stream with varargs can also be kinda neat
bronze marten
@lone rapids change && to ||
bronze marten
And use !=
lone rapids
But I surrounded the statements in ()
wanton delta
instead of !(thing == thing) yea
lone rapids
So the && wouldn't be effected
wanton delta
use thing != thing
bronze marten
Yeah but its cleaner
lone rapids
Ok sir
wanton delta
no you dont understand
naive goblet
Only reason to use !(statment) is if the statement is an instanceof check or if it’s multiply statements you wanna invert
wanton delta
if its NOT right clicking a block AND its not glass return
instead of
if its NOT right clicking a block OR its not glass
sometimes it helps to say it out loud
lone rapids
Oh
naive goblet
I always imagine capitalized letters as someone is screaming them to me
wanton delta
i am screaming wdym
lone rapids
I know that the ! distributes to everything
subtle blade
Not quite
lone rapids
lol
lone rapids
^
naive goblet
You could use the original statement and then revert it. Then the !() would be useful
wanton delta
!(condition) && !(condition1)
lone rapids
Yes
naive goblet
.
lone rapids
I learned it like !(a < b) is the same as (a >= b)
bronze marten
!(c1 && c2) == !c1 || !c2
wanton delta
^^
lone rapids
But I guess I didn't account for the '!' apply to a and b
Because if a was an int like 7 then it wouldn't do anything
! is opposite of? 😮
Which is '-'
bronze marten
! = “not”

java.sql.SQLException: Unknown character set index for field '255' received from server.
What is this ?
this.connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://" + host + ":3306/" + database, username, password);
here is the line the error is thrown from
public void connect()
throws SQLException, ClassNotFoundException {
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
this.connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://" + host + ":3306/" + database, username, password);

}```
whole method!(condition && condition1) will run the code (condition && condition1)
buoyant path
Sorry for copy paste i couldnt be bothered to type it out again lol
wanton delta
!(condition) && !(condition1) will run condition then condition1

naive goblet
NOT PASTEBIN
It gives me raw epilepsy. Please in the name of god use anything but pastebin

All hail Pastebin.

wanton delta
buoyant path
this.connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://" + host + ":3306/" + database, username, password);
this line right here
bronze marten
@buoyant path try to update the mysql jdbc dependency
dusty topaz
Ah i suppose it's different in 1.8 old land
wanton delta
-_- yea i wouldnt know
bronze marten
Could also be bcs of updates I guess, if the table isn’t important to you try deleting it and recreating it
naive goblet
^ seems more reasonable than a patch would cause this
buoyant path
I was gonna create the tables after i established connection to the SQL database
frigid ember
If I want to store a list of players that have something enabled for them, how would I do that? I've read that storing players in a List<Player> is bad practice.
bronze marten
UUID?
buoyant path
Yeah
naive goblet
A Set of UUID
naive goblet
UUID
bronze marten
Set<UUID> data = new HashSet<>();
frigid ember
Oh I didn't realise getUniqueId returns a Java UUID
wraith dew
does PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent.getMessage() contain the '/'?
buoyant path
Still having the error
naive goblet
Iron unsure what this means java.sql.SQLException: Unknown character set index for field '255' received from server.
vernal spruce
boys,how do you handle gui inventorys? Went from usual methods to objects that handle it(own listener and stuff)
best way?
frigid ember
CommandHandler.java:
@EventHandler
public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command command, String label, String[] args) {
// ...
}
In onEnable in Main.java:
Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new CommandHandler(), this);
But I'm getting an error in the console:
[FlamingHead] FlamingHead v1.0.0 attempted to register an invalid EventHandler method signature "public boolean com.github.aimorris.minecraft_flaming_head.CommandHandler.onCommand(org.bukkit.command.CommandSender,org.bukkit.command.Command,java.lang.String,java.lang.String[])" in class com.github.aimorris.minecraft_flaming_head.CommandHandler
Anyone got any ideas?
vernal spruce
You are registering a command as an event?
naive goblet
@vernal spruce InventoryHolder is my personal advice
naive goblet
you hatebin
Anything but pastebin
Make an abstract class for it with some methods that runs onEvents
buoyant path
naive goblet
Then when making new invs. Just extend your abstract class and super the params
vernal spruce
Hmm how would that look like troxx with the holder? As atm i have a class GuiHandler with a constructor so i can pass some more things with it
hmm i see
naive goblet
Iron reset your db
buoyant path
theres nothing in my db rn
vernal spruce
dont worry gonna look more in depth
on other source codes to see
what is the most popular way
as atm i dont have any problem with having a object handling it but im looking for better if i can
frigid ember
Is it bad practice to just have a bukkit runnable constantly cycling through all online players?
naive goblet
//abstract class
abstract class AbstractMenu implementa InventoryHolder {
private final Inventory inv;
public AbstractMenu(int size, String title) {
inv = Bukkit.createInventory(this, size, title);
}
public abstract void onClick(InventoryClickEvent r);
@Override public final Inventory getInv() {return inv;}
}
//register this listener once
class MenuListener implements Listener {
@EventHandler public void onClick(InventoryClickEvent e) {
if (e.getInventory().getHolder() instanceof AbstractMenu) { ((AbstractMenu) e.getInventory().getHolder()).onClick(e);}
}
}
}
//some menu
class MenuSome extends AbstractMenu {
public MenuSome() {
super(54, “Some Title”);
}
@Override public void onClick(InventoryClickEvent e) {
//do stuff
}
}```Ik horrible probably some compilation error as wel
@vernal spruce this is what you kinda want to do
Aimorris why?
Why do it constantly
@frigid ember
frigid ember
Nevermind, I just realised a much better way to do what I'm trying to do
naive goblet
(:
vernal spruce
hmm so im inheriting from the menu?
velvet halo
You could create a MenuItem class with an InventoryClickEvent consumer, then have an ItemStack and a Slot for the position in the inventory
naive goblet
Yeah inheritance
solid ermine
i have a problem with commandsigns. each time i try to do a command,it says This command block already has a position. can u guyz help me?
naive goblet
Iron it’s some illegal character I have not a strong clue about it
vernal spruce
hmm isnt there some unique identifier on the sign?
solid ermine
Idk
vernal spruce
to diference them between each other
naive goblet
Send some code
solid ermine
?
vernal spruce
looks more like a plugin help rather than code problem
yeah..
got spigot link of the plugin?
solid ermine
I just shut down my computer can i dm u later?
vernal spruce
post here dont dm..
naive goblet
^
solid ermine
Ok
buoyant path
Wtf
solid ermine
I'm new to aternos btw
buoyant path
illegal character?
naive goblet
Can have to do with os
buoyant path
Im using db4free for testing and ik all the stuff is right
solid ermine
Can i dm someone good with that plugin?
solid ermine
I may post l8r
naive goblet
Yeah good night 😴🥱
solid ermine
Good night
naive goblet
Forgot I was sleepy but thx
solid ermine
It's 7pm here in canada
vernal spruce
is it this one? https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/command-signs.10512/
vernal spruce
aternos?
naive goblet
Aternos 
solid ermine
Ye
vernal spruce
is that some free scammy host?
solid ermine
Idk
naive goblet
No form what I know you’re only able to install certain plugins with it
And stuff like that
vernal spruce
damn its empty for me @subtle blade
solid ermine
I agree
naive goblet
I’d recommend server pro instead
naive goblet
It’s somewhat better
vernal spruce
so its basically a hoster with moderated plugins? 😂
vernal spruce
@solid ermine dont buy host till you finish it
silk gate
aternos has been around for yearrrsssss
solid ermine
Host?
vernal spruce
i often do my server on local then buy a host for it
naive goblet
Outdated and poopy
silk gate
I think I used to use them back in like 2011 with my mate
solid ermine
Sry for bad english
naive goblet
Server.pro is nice
vernal spruce
i don't get it.whats the deal with it? is free?
solid ermine
Ok thx
naive goblet
But if you want to go all in. VPS is what you should be looking on
silk gate
mfw my bot's competitor goes offline and I gain 400 servers in a day
naive goblet
Gg wp
silk gate
wrong channel nice
frigid ember
you can also get super cheap servers from pebblehost but they arent a good quality
naive goblet
Ovh is better I’d say
solid ermine
Wait it's not free?
solid ermine
Ok
naive goblet
Or if they changed it
silk gate
wdym hetzner security isn't that good
naive goblet
They have a free version
vernal spruce
didnt rly care as it was for modpacks
silk gate
are you talking abt ddos protection
vernal spruce
i needed alot of ram
naive goblet
My friend tried ddos and it didn’t do a shit
Ovh has much better security and protection
frigid ember
Hey guys, I probably asked this before but I forgot. Do I have to check if the hashmap value exists before removing it?
@EventHandler
public void onLeave(PlayerQuitEvent e) {
Player p = e.getPlayer();
if (npcStorage.get(p.getUniqueId()) != null) {
npcStorage.remove(p.getUniqueId());
}
}
wouldn't use security to talk about ddos
solid ermine
Is it only on bedrock edition?
frigid ember
I'm trying to create a plugin that, when a player runs a command it will spawn particles around them until they run the command again, which will make the particles turn off.
My current idea is to add the player's UUID to a Set<UUID> when they run the command and have a bukkit runnable that is constantly running through all players in the set to create the particles, and then when they run the command again just remove them from the Set<UUID>. Is there a better way to do what I'm trying to do? By better, I mean more efficient and cleaner code.
naive goblet
Right security might the wrong word but ddos attacks then
vernal spruce
@frigid ember yeah checking it would be better
frigid ember
Alright, thanks
solid ermine
Guys is server pro only for bedrock edition? Cuz i am on java
vernal spruce
oh boy are you trying to reinvent the cosmetic wheel?
naive goblet
@frigid ember It’s probably the best idea in the concept
vernal spruce
@solid ermine no,it has bedrock but it's mainly java
solid ermine
Ok
vernal spruce
carefull what you select also yes,it's not free
maiden sky
Hey hey hey
I have a problem with my server that runs spigot
when ever a play that’s not op drops a stack of items only 1 appears on the ground
Any solutions?
vernal spruce
seems like a plugin doing that
proper cobalt
operator
maiden sky
but the only plugin I have on is a grappling hook one
yes
It only gives 1 item when you pick it up
vernal spruce
try removing the plugin and testing again
maiden sky
Ok
solid ermine
Thx btw you guyz help me so much
zealous cliff
Is it possible to run a server on the 1.16 snapshots? I couldn't find a guide
naive goblet
Nope
zealous cliff
rip, so is the community server a closed beta or something?
vernal spruce
yes its for testing
zealous cliff
k
naive goblet
Stellrow nice resources
finite belfry
why do my server restarts itself?
naive goblet
Sry couldnt keep myself from not looking (:
naive goblet
Rayvel no idea
vernal spruce
or reupload
naive goblet
Uh I need to find new people to work with :/
vernal spruce
also i have quite alot of new ones that i need to post
naive goblet
Yeah
frigid ember
So this is my current plan:
Set<UUID> enabledPlayers = new HashSet<>();
@Override
public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command command, String label, String[] args) {
if (sender instanceof Player) {
UUID u = ((Player) sender).getUniqueId();
if (enabledPlayers.contains(u)) {
enabledPlayers.remove(u);
// How to stop the BukkitRunnable for the player with UUID of u?
} else {
enabledPlayers.add(u);
// Start the BukkitRunnable for the player with UUID of u.
}
return true;
}
return false;
}
But I have no idea how I would reference a specific bukkit runnable to stop...
worldly heathBOT
naive goblet
Doesnt work :/
frigid ember
Stellrow you talking to me about the list?
vernal spruce
@frigid ember You don't stop the runnable for the player,you loop the list
so you only care about who is in the list
rather than for each player
naive goblet
He needs the timer
vernal spruce
hmmm you wanna do timer for each player?
frigid ember
Wait so I would loop through the set, and then what? Add one particle for each player every loop?
naive goblet
yeah would still loop the set
But we need the timer for spawning particles
If you want to do it consistently
vernal spruce
well i thought you had a method for it
like doParticle(Player p) so you can call that inside the set loop
solid ermine
Guys there is a limit of plugins in server pro
vernal spruce
@solid ermine your ram is the limit..
solid ermine
?
vernal spruce
cant install that many if you dont have enough ram
naive goblet
so make a timer where you eventually loop through the Set and spawn particles and the make a command where you can remove Player from set and readd
naive goblet
it’s plugin limited I think
solid ermine
I don't get anything
vernal spruce
@naive goblet how come so?
silk gate
vernal spruce
i thought hosting companys dont care how many plugnis you install
silk gate
@solid ermine just read their website instead of asking us
@vernal spruce yah but it's free so
solid ermine
I read it
vernal spruce
ahh i see
frigid ember
I want to create something like this https://gyazo.com/02bee939852049a3fbbcddeb68e0dc83 so I think I would need a bukkitrunnable for every player right?
vernal spruce
thought its paid
silk gate
didn't read it in enough detail then @solid ermine
vernal spruce
you would rather need a method doing that for you @frigid ember
particles arent my best as i kinda have vectors
hate*
naive goblet
@frigid ember
BukkitScheduler#runTaskTimer(plugin, ()-> {
Set<T>#stream().forEach(t -> {
//spawn particles
}
}, 0L, 20L);
vernal spruce
me hate math 😂
solid ermine
I mean for the free version @silk gate
vernal spruce
@solid ermine what is the purpose for the server? to play with friends?
silk gate
I posted a screenshot
frigid ember
@naive goblet but then how would I stop those bukkitrunnables when the player executes the command again?
solid ermine
Ye
naive goblet
Remove the player from the set
vernal spruce
in that case ur better off hosting one yourself or whoever has a more beefyer computer
naive goblet
We just spawn particles for everyone in the set
vernal spruce
and keep it on while u play on it
finite belfry
so the server restart itself
https://pastebin.com/FCJ7XzG8
this is the crash report
solid ermine
@silk gate can i dm u?
finite belfry
please help
silk gate
pls dont
silk gate
i dont wanna end up being your personal assistant for the next 6 years
frigid ember
@naive goblet plugin is my main class instance, yeah?
subtle blade
Yes
frigid ember
Why am I converting the set to a stream before doing foreach?
frigid ember
I'm not getting sent the "Hello" message when I use the command /flaminghead? My src is here https://github.com/aimorris/minecraft-flaming-head/tree/master/src/com/github/aimorris/minecraft_flaming_head
proper cobalt
you have two instances of commandhandler
one when you set the command in the main class and once more in ParticleCreator
proper cobalt
there are a few ways you could do it
easiest would probably be to put the set in the main class and then make a constructor in the commandhandler that passes the plugin so you can access the set to add and remove players
frigid ember
Why not just make a constructor in the commandhandler that passes the set?
proper cobalt
what would you do to pass the information out of commandhandler then?
frigid ember
I'm not passing any information out of the command handler?
proper cobalt
you need the enabledPlayers for your ParticleCreator
frigid ember
Does this not change the Set in the main class?
proper cobalt
it won't, it's a separate variable
frigid ember
oh
Well then how do I change the Set in the main class using this?
I've passed the main class's enabledPlayers to the CommandHandler's enabledPlayers, now how do I add the new data?
proper cobalt
you'd need to put the set in the main class
and then just access the set from there
frigid ember
The set is in the main class
proper cobalt
yea access that set instead of creating a second one
instead of the set have that variable be the FlamingHead plugin
and then you can access plugin.enabledPlayers and add/check for players there

given an EntityDamageByEntityEvent is it possible to determine the bow that shot the arrow the entity is hit by?
subtle blade
Not in the EntityDamageByEntityEvent alone, no
jovial trout
what event am i looking for?
i know theres an event for when the player draws a bow
i dont know what to look for in the javadocs
subtle blade
You would have to listen to EntityShootBowEvent (on the MONITOR priority, preferably) and map the projectile's UUID to the ItemStack used to shoot it
Then you could fetch the bow from that map in the EntityDamageByEntityEvent using the damager (the projectile)
Modifying that mapped ItemStack won't mirror any changes to the actual item in the inventory, that's much more trivial of a task
rustic glade
It would be nicer if there were an event for having that
subtle blade
Yes, the bow, not the entity
jovial trout
ah
subtle blade
That's why I said map it lol
jovial trout
i guess i will
silk gate
I usually attach the data I want in the arrows metadata
jovial trout
thats a good idea
frigid ember
Choco
jovial trout
and once the arrow makes contact i can just check for the metadata i'm looking for
frigid ember
I have a person on spigot who gave me a plugin that had a backdoor
Where do I report them?
subtle blade
Preferably you report the resource
frigid ember
They gave it to me on discord
jovial trout
distributing malicious content violates discord's tns, you can report them at https://dis.gd/contact
subtle blade

Discord is an over-glorified web app. Inspect element is not difficult so proof is difficult to grab unless you're actually at Discord where you can link messages
Though as far as we're concerned, we cannot do anything
frigid ember
I literally have the plugin
subtle blade
I understand that
frigid ember
With a picture of him sending it
jovial trout
report him to discord and have his account taken down
subtle blade
Discord is an over-glorified web app. Inspect element is not difficult so proof is difficult to grab
jovial trout
they can view the attachment and see its malware
subtle blade
I'm not saying you have any reason to manipulate what is being sent but we also can't just assume someone's right
frigid ember
He deleted his messages after I screenshotted them
honest cobalt
is there a way to link vanilla server to bungeecord? (if it is vanillacord then can someone lmk how to set it up)
jovial trout
also what choco's trying to say that if i dmed a mod this: https://holding-hands.might-be-super.fun/65YsXap.png then who's to say im lying?
silk gate
too late for spigot
subtle blade
They do if you have the message link
honest cobalt
^ no
silk gate
@jovial trout press ctrl shift i
jovial trout
they dont, sadly
honest cobalt
message deleted is deleted
jovial trout
@silk gate that's my point
honest cobalt
they wont act on it 99% of the time
jovial trout
discord keeps deleted messages for 7 days and they still won't go retrieve deleted ones
i reported something a while ago and got this in response
bc it was deleted
silk gate
no they delete from DB straight away unless you report the message from in the app
subtle blade
They will delete from private messages right away iirc
We don't do witch hunts either
jovial trout
also not true
frigid ember
Atleast have a reputation system
silk gate
a
frigid ember
wow this turned to shit jc
silk gate
I will ask spencer
jovial trout
feel free
subtle blade
I'm sure it would be as effective as the review system on the forums lol
jovial trout
he dont work dere no mo
subtle blade
"omg this is a fake -rep, can you please remove it?"
frigid ember
thats why everyone uses plugin sites other than spigot nowadays
jovial trout
lol
frigid ember
no accountability
subtle blade
Dude, we literally can't do anything
It's on Discord
That's like reporting a scam on Skype to Discord
The fuck are they going to do?
frigid ember
I would literally share my screen with you to show our messages on the app
"it's on discord"
subtle blade
Sharing doesn't resolve the issue of HTML doctoring
frigid ember
"can't do anything"
silk gate
you can do some crazy stuff and edit it
frigid ember
would literally turn on my camera, show you my face, go on my phone and go through the app there on my iOS device!!
still on discord, can't do anything
bureaucratic bullshit goin on in here
silk gate
you could edit it if you were really determined
subtle blade
We cannot ban willy-nilly based on what somebody says without irrefutable evidence. It's much more dangerous
silk gate
no one does anything about off platform stuff this isn't limited to spigot
frigid ember
there's a level at some point where you couldn't.
i'm offering you irrefutable evidence @subtle blade
silk gate
you could create a fake discord app if you wanted
silk gate
fake app store
frigid ember
ok
subtle blade
I think you're far too persistent. You shouldn't run software made by someone relatively unknown
jovial trout
@silk gate re: earlier
https://holding-hands.might-be-super.fun/5zhCEbB.png
frigid ember
I didn't run the software
subtle blade
That's computers 101
silk gate
yah most cases it gets instantly deleted
honest cobalt
can someone tell me how i can link a snapshot server to bungee?
silk gate
in popular servers where msgs are always in cache then yeah it'll probably be cached
honest cobalt
i did vanillacord
subtle blade
I don't think Bungee supports snapshots?
jovial trout
not afaik, ghosty
honest cobalt
hm kk
subtle blade
arockstar it's not that we have no accountability. If you saw the amount of people we ban in a day, you'd think otherwise
frigid ember
vanillacord is off platform, they cannot help you.
subtle blade
Though we make those bans based on proper evidence that we can support, generally in the form of a forum message or something to do with our platform
Off platform we have no control
We'd be none the wiser
subtle blade
If he does anything on Spigot or in this Discord, we will
If you ever become a moderator or member of staff on any large & reputable platform, your perspective will change and you'll understand why we won't take action
frigid ember
You don't have to prove your "credibility" to me, I've already been a moderator on other websites and I took action against things like this. In extreme cases, you're saying you wouldn't even ban a child pedophile who was blackmailing someone apart of the SpigotMC for their nudes?
It'd be off platform, right?
silk gate
discord would be better suited to deal with that
jovial trout
that escalated
silk gate
discord log absolutely everything you do, they have the evidence to go to the police etc
spigot don't really have a place in it
wicked sage
is there any property you can put on a player that can be temporarily read (in memory is fine) by other plugins? something like a tag?
silk gate
@wicked sage metadata
frigid ember
It's an extreme case, but the person still breaks the rules and you throw your hands up in the air because "it's off platform"
jovial trout
you can attach metadata
silk gate
@frigid ember if it doesn't happen in this guild then spigot have no place
jovial trout
mr arockstar i sincerely doubt you arguing with the moderators will change their mind in the slightest
wicked sage
isn't metadata linked to a single plugin tho? @silk gate
frigid ember
@jovial trout that's an authoritative fallacy, don't appeal to him just because he's a mod
jovial trout
if somebody is blackmailing somebody on discord and you try to get their facebook taken down i would love to hear the results
wicked sage
livingEntity1.setMetadata("data", new FixedMetadataValue(MainClass.getInstance(), true));
silk gate
@wicked sage if you get the instance of the other plugin you can read it
jovial trout
@frigid ember i didnt say he was right im saying its futile. thanks
subtle blade
is there any property you can put on a player that can be temporarily read (in memory is fine) by other plugins? something like a tag?
This was actually the original purpose of metadata 😄
frigid ember
@jovial trout Not a good enough analogy. He's literally linked to this discord. It would be more like he messaged me on whatsapp and I told facebook what was going on.
You're acting like there's no correlation
silk gate
if it didn't happen in here they don't care
frigid ember
also you're welcome
subtle blade
In extreme cases, you're saying you wouldn't even ban a child pedophile who was blackmailing someone apart of the SpigotMC for their nudes?
This would be at the discretion of the platform on which the distribution occurred. If it was on Discord (outside of this one), that's on Discord and the community where it took place to take action
silk gate
go report him to discord and they'll insta disable his account
jovial trout
im acting like nothing you say is gonna change anybodys mind and i shouldnt have gotten myself dragged into this in the first place
frigid ember
then stay out of it next time lmao
jovial trout
i will
silk gate
friend of mine uploaded a blank file called keylogger.exe and he got disabled, phone number blacklisted too
subtle blade
Keep acting the way you are and you're raring for a kick. Because this discussion is taking place on SpigotMC's Discord where we do have jurisdiction
frigid ember
k
keen compass
I see everyone is having fun today
subtle blade
jovial trout
correct me if im wrong but i dont see a constructor for metadatavalue?
subtle blade
FixedMetadataValue
subtle blade
Depending on what you need, there's also LazyMetadataValue IIRC
keen compass
MetadataValue is an interface
jovial trout
i dont need it to be lazy
keen compass
and you are correct on the lazy one too @subtle blade
subtle blade
Right, has an abstract implementation
keen compass
kind of on point today 😄
jovial trout
i just need to attach a key value pair to a projectile
subtle blade
Yea, FixedMetadataValue is fine
storm tulip
@subtle blade is there some kinda guide on making a patch? How does on make a PR to spigot exactly or edit it?
subtle blade
I really should write up a thread on the metadata API and its original purpose
Eh, I've only ever found one good guide on how to contribute. 1 sec
placid owl
is the right channel to receive support with troubleshooting ?
jovial trout
can we call setMetaData directly or do we need to first get the meta data, check if its empty, and set it back like w/ itemmeta?
ignore me
storm tulip
okay, I honestly wanna look around first, and learn more about it.
Been in this server a few days and have learned a ton about random things that I didnt know existed
subtle blade
(if you're PRing to Bukkit/CraftBukkit, use their directories instead in the root)
jovial trout
looks like i cant get the array of all the meta data
subtle blade
PR to Spigot only for Spigot-exclusive APIs and server performance improvements
I highly recommend you create constants for your keys under the form group:artifact-Key
i.e. I used one today as the following, wtf.choco:MyPlugin-ThisWasMyKey
jovial trout
quite the long key name but i suppose
makes sense
polluted namespaces? what is this, C++?
wanton delta
if you PR craftbukkit md will make the appropriate patch/fix as well
jovial trout
a key is something you attach a value to, so that you can later get that value by looking up the key
storm tulip
is this related to patch files? Ive never done that
subtle blade
No no no, this is in response to broman lol
jovial trout
like if my key is "broman" and the value is, say, a phone number
you can later look up my name and get the value, aka my phone number
subtle blade
That thread I linked above is the best information you'll find on how to use BuildTools imo
wanton delta
choco do u know how dependencies make it to the nexus repo
subtle blade
As in non-Spigot dependencies? Plugins?
wanton delta
correct
subtle blade
You'd have to ask md on that one
wanton delta
interesting
cuz i see independent devs that ahve their plugin apis on the spigot nexus
subtle blade
afaik he will let pretty much anybody that asks
wanton delta
i was always curious how they do that
storm tulip
yeah I have a pipeline for that
if u use jenkins theres a plugin
and teamcity has one too
subtle blade
You can just deploy with Maven afaik
storm tulip
youre gonna need a vcs server, ci to build and then push if u wanna automate it
silver pollen
@subtle blade is it bad practice to use a static hashmap?
placid owl
could someone tell me how they know if their spigot server is running versus a standard vanilla server?
subtle blade
In most cases, yes, though it depends on your use case ;P
Bukkit adds a few commands (/plugins & /version namely)
silver pollen
ok
placid owl
so I could just type /version into the server console to verify that I am running a spigot server ?
wanton delta
is there a situation that you would not know you are running a spigot server?
that is my main question
silver pollen
don't include the slash in console
subtle blade
😦
keen compass
other then that, generally the name of the jar is an indicator too
gloomy girder
does anyone know how to shut the entire system off when nobody is on the minecraft server?
silk gate
yeah pterodactyl uses server.jar
gloomy girder
is there a plugin?
subtle blade
(*cough* ATERNOS)
keen compass
that is why I said generally, probably wouldn't be reliable on a host that provides them for you
silk gate
even on hosts that let you upload your own
wanton delta
what is this aternos thing ppl keep mentioning
subtle blade
Free server host
silk gate
no one changes it from server.jar on pterodactyl
wanton delta
oh
keen compass
there are some that don't @silk gate
wanton delta
its mentioned quite a lot
gloomy girder
does anyone know how to shut the entire system off when nobody is on the minecraft server?
@gloomy girder
subtle blade
does anyone know how to shut the entire system off when nobody is on the minecraft server?
Sounds like something a plugin shouldn't be able to do
Though if you want to just shut down the server, why?
You can't turn it back on unless you do so manually which interrupts traffic
gloomy girder
i want to shut down the system to save costs
placid owl
wait why is aternos free
gloomy girder
i have something that auto turns it on already
keen compass
@subtle blade unless you make a system that does it for you 😉
gloomy girder
startup script
subtle blade
I'm unfamiliar with any plugin that does this, at least publicly available
wanton delta
yes but when/how
gloomy girder
through discord
silk gate
@gloomy girder they're gonna need to wait quite a while for it to load
keen compass
you could have a plugin on the hub that runs a command to console
silk gate
their client will time out in that time
silk gate
ah right
keen compass
use DiscordSRV to have a bot, and in that plugin that uses DiscordSRV on the hub, just have it run a command to console to start or stop the server.
wanton delta
you could use this
and check every like 10 minutes
and shut it off the same way you turn it on
subtle blade
Found this on GitHub https://github.com/coco0325/Save-Stop
wanton delta
subtle blade
I'd decompile the plugin just in case to double check no malware but the source seems safe enough
wanton delta
mine is from dinnerbone but requires programming knowledge
keen compass
I use dynamic services for starting new servers, which I can use to check the status of the server as well 😉
wanton delta
and some way to send commands to console remotely which i do not know how to do lol
there is a server host that does turn off servers after all players leave
i forget what it is
but that tells me its possible at least
subtle blade
It's actually still actively maintained which I'm surprised about
keen compass
Realms does it @wanton delta if no one is on the server if I recall it shutsdown
gloomy girder
https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/idle-shutdown.57848/ does this seem ok?
gloomy girder
i just found it
subtle blade
Looks fine to me
gloomy girder
alright thanks everyone
gloomy girder
gonna edit it to shut down the whole pc
subtle blade
That's what all these plugins do, Martoph, yes
wanton delta
yes but im just saying i did not know that existed lol
placid owl
so i installed build tools and what not with the git bash stuff
but i could not for the life of me find the spigot.jar file that was referred to over and over
does anyone know where that is
wanton delta
did you get any errors
it should be in the directory you ran buildtools
spigot-1.15.2.jar
silk gate
@gloomy girder do you have like wake on lan setup to boot it
placid owl
yeah so i ran buildtools from my desktop
subtle blade
Oh that's a big no no lol
silk gate
@gloomy girder
subtle blade
Create a folder! ;P It creates a bunch of things
silk gate
a
wanton delta
lmaoooo
silk gate
nice mention discord
