Or what you can also do, you can store an instance of your class somewhere in a database. 🤣

hoary parcel Apr 30, 2020, 8:13 AM

#

Well, the ctor makes sure there is only one instance

#

So it doesn't matter at all

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 8:13 AM

#

yeah it just disables the plugin

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:14 AM

#

tf

#

that's not what he's saying?

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:14 AM

#

The only thing with singleton is that you need to make sure, to call your getInstance method on load already to avoid potential thread issues

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:14 AM

#

I made a pseudo singleton out of my main class

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:14 AM

#

avoid potential thread issues?

#

huh?

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:15 AM

#

Yes,

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:15 AM

#

If you have multiple threads singletons can get very pissed off

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:15 AM

#

exactly

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:15 AM

#

it's java

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:15 AM

#

As the instance might not yet exist

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:15 AM

#

multithreading is undefined behavior

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:16 AM

#

Hey, I'd like you to answer my question in spigot forum. I couldn't find any documents about it in spigot.
https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/multi-arena-or-bungee-arena.433578/

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:16 AM

#

Therefore, you need to make sure to call the get method before any other method will call it

#

I learned it the hard way

uneven cradle Apr 30, 2020, 8:18 AM

#

I'm confused as to how to create an instance of your plugin so you can use it for things like BukkitRunnable.

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:18 AM

#

the instance is created on load

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:18 AM

#

your instance of your plugin is basically the class extending JavaPlugin

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:18 AM

#

You can pass around this

#

from the class extending java plugin

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

do not confuse classes and instances^^

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

You can save your class as a static content and get like ClassName.plugin

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

NO ^^

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

It's basic and not confusing for you.

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

this behavior is discouraged

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

It's static abuse

#

You should use the ctor to send the instance of your main class to other classes

fleet burrow Apr 30, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

https://discuss.kotlinlang.org/t/how-to-return-child-object-if-generic-type-extends-parent-class/10897 Apparently you have to cast it to T@sturdy oar

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

Why is it important to save as an instance not static?

#

So it is bad usage?

📎 unknown.png

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:21 AM

#

why would you do that?

#

and yes

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:21 AM

#

you should not assign values to static variables in non static methods

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

May you want to explain me why it is bad?

hoary parcel Apr 30, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

Why is that bad?

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

'cause I get all class?

#

I do not understand

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

It's not threadsafe

hoary parcel Apr 30, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

There is really nothing bad with creating a Singleton like that

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

I do not think so

hoary parcel Apr 30, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

Well, bukkit API will only calls the method on one thread anyways?

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

Yeah, what's wrong with a static reference to the plugin?

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

nothing

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

...

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

...

hoary parcel Apr 30, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

And well, you would do it in onload

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

it's just the way it is set

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:24 AM

#

It's simply not , how it is done. I would use dependency injection. Several reasons for that, but from a solution design perspective, it's more clean

#

And regarding the thread safety, it is thread safe, but from a performance perspective, that could lead to issues

#

Got a meeting now

#

see you guys later 🙂

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

There's no performance issue about it

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

you would hold all instances while assigning

#

(if they are assigned to different threads)

hoary parcel Apr 30, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

I like how he didn't name one proper point

#

Hur dur PERFORMANCE!

hoary parcel Apr 30, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

"not how it's done" elitism right there

#

So now we talking about Singleton vs DI?

#

I thought we talking about that one sample impl of Singleton vs other impls, lol

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:30 AM

#

We were talking about a static reference to JavaPlugin...? The blackone1991 does it.

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:30 AM

#

Yes, anyhow, it's simple

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:31 AM

#

I can't follow this conversation.

hoary parcel Apr 30, 2020, 8:31 AM

#

Neither can I tbh

peak marten Apr 30, 2020, 8:31 AM

#

If the singleton of the main class is thread safe and runs everything n order, calling it form a different thread, might result in a latency on your thread

#

Anyhow, I really got a meeting now

#

There are specific use cases for DI and Singleton

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:34 AM

#

public class Main extends JavaPlugin implements YourPlugin{
    private static YourPlugin instance;
    
    @Override
    public void onLoad(){
       setInstance(this); 
    }

    public static YourPlugin getInstance(){
        synchronized(Main.class){
        if(instance == null{
          throw new IllegalStateException("Not initialized!");
        }
        return instance;
        }
    }
    private static synchronized void setInstance(YourPlugin instance){
     Main.instance = instance;
    }            
}

#

is what would cause performance issues

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 8:35 AM

#

you didn't close the if

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:35 AM

#

I did

#

I think

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 8:35 AM

#

📎 unknown.png

keen compass Apr 30, 2020, 8:36 AM

#

nothing wrong with getting the plugin instance using a static, and there is no difference in performance considering your plugins instance isn't going to go away so as long as the plugin is enabled lol

#

which ever way you decide to use is fine. However, if you are creating an api or designing your plugin so others can use it in their projects, might be better to go with DI

hardy island Apr 30, 2020, 8:37 AM

#

it says is outdated mi version

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:37 AM

#

@hardy island That is literally your first message in the server...

#

wtf are we supposed to do with that?

#

what says what?

hardy island Apr 30, 2020, 8:38 AM

#

idk

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:38 AM

#

I'm so confused.

keen compass Apr 30, 2020, 8:38 AM

#

so update it

#

run buildtools and then update your server 😉

frigid ember Apr 30, 2020, 8:38 AM

#

Yeah, if it says outdated, chances are, it's outdated? 🤔

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:38 AM

#

It is about the synchronization problem it will hold all threads while running Frost

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 8:38 AM

#

it's not outdated he just a time traveler

frigid ember Apr 30, 2020, 8:39 AM

#

it's forward-dated? D:

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 8:39 AM

#

what would actually happen if i were to manually modify with a version that doesn't exist?

#

like 1.17 , would it say outdated or throw errors?

keen compass Apr 30, 2020, 8:39 AM

#

what synchronization problem? Are you trying to run the plugin multiple threads or what?

frigid ember Apr 30, 2020, 8:39 AM

#

Not too sure tbh

keen compass Apr 30, 2020, 8:40 AM

#

You can get the plugin instance from multiple threads just fine

#

and have it not hang up any of them

hoary parcel Apr 30, 2020, 8:41 AM

#

"If the singleton of the main class is thread safe and runs everything n order, calling it form a different thread, might result in a latency on your thread"

Nobody said anything about syncronising the getter

#

Which doesn't make much sense anyways since it's a read op

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:41 AM

#

Just do Bukkit.getPlugin("plugin name") every single time and then cast it.

#

am i right?

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:41 AM

#

don't

keen compass Apr 30, 2020, 8:42 AM

#

have no idea, apparently the people I know here we all have our own in house anti-cheats XD

frigid ember Apr 30, 2020, 8:42 AM

#

AAC always was pretty good, not used it in a while though

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:42 AM

What kind of anticheat would you advise with minimum load and false alarms? AAC?
An insanely expensive custom coded plugin
||Just kidding||

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:45 AM

@radiant pollen Just use static method that I mention it. There's only difference that is static method is more simple.

@keen compass from the servers...

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:53 AM

The only change is netherite which is easy to disable

although most players like "op" stuff

there's so many plugins that make stronger gear so why is 1.16 a big deal?

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:53 AM

There's a fair few

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:54 AM

like 1000 server with 10 players

frigid ember Apr 30, 2020, 8:54 AM

keen compass Apr 30, 2020, 8:54 AM

https://bstats.org/global/bukkit

you can have more than 100 players in a 1.15.2 server

keen compass Apr 30, 2020, 8:54 AM

#

1.15 controls 55% of the servers

#

1.8 is only at 13%

frigid ember Apr 30, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

Everyone is kind, thank you.

heady jolt Apr 30, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

It's depend, if the server host a Faction server with 1.15, they can still count as PVP server

keen compass Apr 30, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

162,375 recorded for that statistic

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

You have your logic backwards dude. All of the big servers are big because they've been around since 1.8 not because they use 1.8. They have their entire infrastructure built with 1.8 and why pay devs to update everything when they've been around so long and have the playerbase already?

heady jolt Apr 30, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

1.8 also easier to host 😛

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

They're big because they're old and they're on 1.8 because it's expensive to update a massive server like that.

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 8:55 AM

there's no reason to use 1.8

it's stupid

It's much harder

keen compass Apr 30, 2020, 8:56 AM

There's so many exploits and game-breaking bugs in 1.8.

keen compass Apr 30, 2020, 8:56 AM

1.8 has UUID spoofing

heady jolt Apr 30, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

1.15.2 is cool. I'm currently host one without any problem, but for me it needs a lot more tweak than 1.8 ~ 1.12.2

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

people just use that as argument usually

keen compass Apr 30, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

there is also one other flaw in the protocol as well that was pretty major but can't think of it right now

#

just as bad as UUID spoofing. Maybe it was session hijacking

@vale slate no one is asking questions

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 8:58 AM

I really like higher versions of course but when I look at the community they really love 1.8. You're right about 1.15 has more player but I'm trying to say 1.15 servers are separated.

Just loop over all online players and use this method to disable fly for them 🙂

By the way i've been looking to start messing around with Java
if I may ask there is a lot of of Youtube channels that makes java tutorials
which one would you recommend? 😛 thanks in advance!

especially for Spigot or general?

#

@frigid ember

frigid ember Apr 30, 2020, 11:23 AM

#

Well I'm mostly interested in making plugins for my server but I guess I cant start directly with that without knowing the basics right?

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 11:25 AM

#

you can do that, but I won't recommend it, because most of the spigot tutorials give a shi* on coding conventions

#

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grEKMHGYyns
For beginning in Java I'd recommend this tutorial

#

and no, you don't have to watch it all together

frigid ember Apr 30, 2020, 11:30 AM

Last question i swear :P
would decompiling free source simple plugins help at understanding the basics at all? or would it make me more confused?

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 11:30 AM

#

it would most likely confuse you

marble narwhal Apr 30, 2020, 11:31 AM

#

I would indeed not use decompiling to learn the basics, there is also the chance that the plugin you decompile is written poorly.

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 11:31 AM

#

and decompilers not always do their job that good

Most of the guides I found are out of date

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 12:15 PM

ohm, I only found one for 1.13 and changed it around a bit now it works for 1.14

#

1.15 I haven't touched yet

Pretty sure 1.14 is pretty close to 1.15

#

Can you hmu with that link?

should I send you the 1.13 version or the new one I made?

jaunty night Apr 30, 2020, 12:19 PM

It will be helpful to send both

So I can see the original source and the edited version

so it will make it much easier to convert it to 1.15

you need to save it in onLoad to a static variable in your main class

MFM I would avoid using a static instance in main class

that can lead to static abuse

Yeah

jaunty night Apr 30, 2020, 12:54 PM

I tend to not do it this way

#

but it's fine if you do

marble narwhal Apr 30, 2020, 12:54 PM

#

What are you using if I may ask? 😛

#

JavaPlugin#getPlugin?

jaunty night Apr 30, 2020, 12:56 PM

#

nope

#

depends on what I'm doing

#

If I'm doing something small scale I tend to just use static

#

If I'm developing some form of API I usually just create an interface, put my API methods their, create a class that implements that and use that.

#

If I'm developing something that's really large scale

marsh hawk Apr 30, 2020, 12:58 PM

#

Stupid question but anyone know how to differentiate a click in the top and bottom inventory. I'm not exactly sure what the index bounds are for each one lol

📎 numer.PNG

jaunty night Apr 30, 2020, 12:58 PM

#

I'm pretty sure there's an enum in InventoryClickEvent

#

or in InventoryView

#

but I'm not sure

#

I need to check

#

AH

#

So there's a method

#

InventoryClickEvent#getClickedInventory()

#

and that returns an Inventory

marsh hawk Apr 30, 2020, 1:00 PM

#

Oh crap so they're not considered one inventory?

#

beautiful thanks man

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 1:00 PM

#

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/InventoryView.html#getBottomInventory--

#

for the bottom one

marble narwhal Apr 30, 2020, 1:00 PM

#

You can get an InventoryView by https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/inventory/InventoryEvent.html#getView--
and then use the method from @sturdy oar

marsh hawk Apr 30, 2020, 1:00 PM

#

Thats more for contents though. Unless i want to iterate through each item

jaunty night Apr 30, 2020, 1:03 PM

#

InventoryView also has a getType

#

hang on

#

You can use InventoryClickEvent#getClickedInventory() to get an instance of inventory

#

and then check if Inventory#getType is equal too InventoryType.PLAYER

#

if it is then it's the bottom one

#

if it is not then it's the top one

#

I'm unsure weather this will work

#

but I have pretty strong feeling that it will

marsh hawk Apr 30, 2020, 1:07 PM

#

just ended up doing e.getInventory().equals(e.getView().getBottomInventory(). Not sure if it works yet but i don't see a reason why not

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 1:09 PM

#

Or you can just check clicked inventory name.

marble narwhal Apr 30, 2020, 1:10 PM

#

Don't check on the inventory name, what if you change the name, or what if a different plugin has the same inventory name?

marsh hawk Apr 30, 2020, 1:10 PM

#

That's very incosistent

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 1:10 PM

doesn't change that it's bad design

marble narwhal Apr 30, 2020, 1:10 PM

#

There are really simple ways to check this without using the inventory name.

#

Which were also listed

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 1:11 PM

#

I'm checking inventory name that is simple way to do. I also change inventory name with packets.

#

A lot of player using it without any issue and that is faster. Also you can change inventory name without closing.

jaunty night Apr 30, 2020, 1:12 PM

#

you can also just directly check if one inventory equals another

chrome edge Apr 30, 2020, 1:15 PM

#

Yeah you can check top and bottom with click event. I meant to say as I understood from your picture, you're making trade GUI. I though you'd like to change inventory name without closing and saving trading player's uuid as a gui name

uneven cradle Apr 30, 2020, 2:34 PM

#

Has player.getMaxHealth() been deprecated?

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 2:36 PM

#

Yes. Use attributes instead

#

Trixone, you should have a BukkitTask on which you can call cancel()

hoary parcel Apr 30, 2020, 2:36 PM

as the deprecation note says...

How can I compare player.getMaxHealth to GENERIC_HEALTH_ATTRIBUTE

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 2:38 PM

You shouldn't use getMaxHealth() at all.

LivingEntity has a #getAttribute() method

look at the javadocs

Spigot_Latest_1.15.2.jar:git-Spigot-2040c4c-a1a705e

Ok, how can I find a timings report?

#

sorry, first time messing with plugins and stuff

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 3:54 PM

#

You can run /timings start, let your server run for a bit. 15 - 30 minutes or whatever. Longer if you'd like. Then /timings paste to generate a report

#

Run that when you're having some server issues

golden chasm Apr 30, 2020, 3:54 PM

#

thank you

#

ill check back in 15-30 then

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 3:54 PM

It will send you a link in chat that you can then send here, we'll be able to diagnose a bit further from there 🙂

should i just leave timings on?

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 4:16 PM

Yea the only standout issue in that timings report is world saving

golden chasm Apr 30, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

hm I wonder whats causing the lag then, i have around 16 consistent tps with 6 players and 16 gb

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

With how little plugins you have and the relatively low player count, I would lower that RAM down to 4GB. Maybe 6 if you're still having issues. You shouldn't need much more than that.

golden chasm Apr 30, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

It's not my personal ram, its the ram for the server itself

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

That may help a little to declutter any unnecessary garbage sitting around collecting dust, though to address world saving, best option is to reduce server view distance

golden chasm Apr 30, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

through a hosting service

#

ok Ill look into the view distance. thank you

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

Definitely recommend lowering your plan then 🙂 Save yourself a bit of money because 16GB is overkill and will likely lower performance over time

#

Java's GC is super lazy and won't clean up any memory unless it has to

golden chasm Apr 30, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

really? I never knew that having too much would slow it down as well

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

I'd say you would do just fine on 4 - 6 GB

golden chasm Apr 30, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

ok. thank you a ton for the help. Hopefully these things fix the tps issues im having

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 4:20 PM

View distance should help a bit. Lower it by a few notches and see if that helps 🙂

I mainly do trouble shooting/bug testing and play with friends on my server

well, you said you didn't know a better way. Just merely informing you what that better way is XD

sage flame Apr 30, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

That's true

golden chasm Apr 30, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

seems to be much better so far Choco, the view distance and I installed clearlag, the two seem to have fixed the problem together

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

We typically advise against clearlagg because it causes more issues than it solves, but if you're noticing an improvement it should be fine

#

You have few plugins and players, I can't imagine it will be that big of a deal

golden chasm Apr 30, 2020, 4:34 PM

Ok, I will keep that in mind. If tps starts going down thats where I'll look first. Thanks a ton for all of your help!

so I have been trying to find a way to code a player tracker like the one Dream did for the man hunt, but I don't know how to edit the compass values, can anyone help?

pulsar badger Apr 30, 2020, 5:08 PM

#

So I have an old server I used to run in 1.12.2 and have not updated it since but wish to update it to the latest version of Spigot again. Is it best to update through major versions and update all plugins and get it working on 1.13, then 1.14, etc. Or should I just jump straight to latest and fix bugs? I'm a very experienced server owner and error chasing is not new to me, I'm more so concerned about corrupting 5+ years of player data.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there

#

it seems if holographic displays are getting deleted

#

but no one is deleting them ;P

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

@pulsar badger You might as well just update to latest. I would back-up your worlds and plugin folder though. The only issue with updating to new versions with old worlds is you have to explore new chunks to see any of the world changes.

pulsar badger Apr 30, 2020, 5:18 PM

#

So long story short, the gamemode I run is an economy survival that has a "Town" world where people live, have property and store their items, then there's a "Wild" world that get's wiped/reset upon game updates.

#

So the new chunk loading is not needed.

#

I'm more so just wondering if anyone knows of any obvious issues with skipping major version?

#

versions

#

But thanks @radiant pollen

How do i use the bukkit task scheduler?

pulsar badger Apr 30, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

Also is there a simple way to just download spigot 😂 Buildtools seems to just break.

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

@pulsar badger No, there isn't. That's why I said just update to latest. Just make sure you do a backup of everything first.

#

No, you have to use BuildTools.

pulsar badger Apr 30, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

BuildTools on Windows?

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

@burnt raptor Bukkit.getScheduler().runTask()

red zenith Apr 30, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

@pulsar badger are you having issues with using BuildTools on Windows?

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

@pulsar badger I would just try updating to latest first and if it doesn't work out go through the major versions. I can't see why it would mess up, but it's so much faster than going through the major versions you might as well try it.

pulsar badger Apr 30, 2020, 5:22 PM

I just want to download the spigot jars 🤦‍♂️ why does it have to involve installing git bash

burnt raptor Apr 30, 2020, 5:22 PM

You have to download git bash

#

Its not that hard

red zenith Apr 30, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

Because of Legalities?

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

Because spigot can't distribute the jars like that.

#

It's illegal

pulsar badger Apr 30, 2020, 5:22 PM

Yes but I just want to run 1 installer

You should go through the documentation for the Bukkit scheduler

just remember that it's in ticks and not seconds

@sturdy oar instead of calculating it in the parameter, why not put the answer in it, its faster

so I have been trying to find a way to code a player tracker like the one Dream did for the man hunt, but I don't know how to edit the compass values, can anyone help?
@kind berry you can use the setCompassTarget method

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

define faster because i don't get it

#

I don't think that there's a huge difference between writing 20*60*60 or 72_000

regal siren Apr 30, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

the compiler has to calculate for example everytime what 20*60 is, but if you put the answer of that in it, its quicker, not that you will find a bigger difference

kind berry Apr 30, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

ok thx @sage flame

frigid ember Apr 30, 2020, 5:36 PM

Can someone help me?

            event.setCancelled(true);
        }
    }
}```
And someone does /PLUGINS (In capital letters) then it still works!

#

it should just be "plugins" without the /

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 5:37 PM

why are you using PlayerCommandPreprocess tho

frigid ember Apr 30, 2020, 5:37 PM

Dont use a bukkit scheduler

#

its trash

cold wharf Apr 30, 2020, 5:38 PM

wdym?

regal siren Apr 30, 2020, 5:38 PM

use Executors

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 5:38 PM

??? wtf

cold wharf Apr 30, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

@burnt raptor do you mean tick cooldown?

regal siren Apr 30, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

Bukkit schedulers are a no go lol, use Executors

#

they are also easier to do

#

less messy

burnt raptor Apr 30, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

Is there a documentation for them

regal siren Apr 30, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

Google it

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

Don't executors create new threads? @regal siren Never messed with them before.

cold wharf Apr 30, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

I don't think so

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

I used executors

#

only newCachedThreadPool a few times when working with CompletableFutures

regal siren Apr 30, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

If a task is submitted for execution and the thread is currently busy executing another task, then the new task will wait in a queue until the thread is free to execute it.

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

I think like Bukkit scheduler is much easier for beginners

sage flame Apr 30, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

I agree

#

Was very simple to learn

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

I know of course that Executor has more potential but they'll end up just copying stuff

radiant pollen Apr 30, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

I mean the BukkitScheduler surely uses the ExecutorService.

#

It's just the BukkitScheduler is probably easier and it's also synced with the server tick, right?

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

it's also very useful when stuff can't be done async

cold wharf Apr 30, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

What is BukkitScheduler?

#

😮

sage flame Apr 30, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

allows you to schedule tasks to be done

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

https://bukkit.gamepedia.com/Scheduler_Programming

#

the documentation is pretty well done as well

cold wharf Apr 30, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

Oh

#

Like do something in every 15 minutes?

flat aspen Apr 30, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

I'd any day prefer Bukkit scheduler over executors

#

the interface is very convenient (aside from requiring a plugin instance), maintains a threadpool internally already and allows for running sync tasks

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 5:50 PM

#

I mean the BukkitScheduler surely uses the ExecutorService.
It does

#

private final Executor executor = Executors.newCachedThreadPool(new ThreadFactoryBuilder().setNameFormat("Craft Scheduler Thread - %d").build());

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

oh so it's c a c h e d

subtle blade Apr 30, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

Yes. As any sensible executor should be lol

sturdy oar Apr 30, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

I still need to properly understand those things

pulsar badger Apr 30, 2020, 6:02 PM

#

Oof

#

So updating all plugins and spigot to latest, then booting results in my worlds just regenerating 👍

#

Despite my server having 0 errors with plugins in 1.12.2

#

Guess I'll go for the slow option updating through the versions 😉

sage flame Apr 30, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

check that the world file has the same name as in the server.properties

frigid ember Apr 30, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

Not all world files can work universally, that's probably why it regenerated the new world

runic wadi Apr 30, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

the bukkit async executor feels so unresponsive, i just make my own async executor

#

something is wrong with it

tiny dagger Apr 30, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

Executots.newsinglethreaded() :p

runic wadi Apr 30, 2020, 6:33 PM

#

well it has a thread pool so no

#

but it's still like delayed or something

tiny dagger Apr 30, 2020, 6:33 PM

#

for my mysql requests it's perfect

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 6:34 PM

#

I use standard Java threads for that, these Bukkit runnables annoyed me too many times

runic wadi Apr 30, 2020, 6:34 PM

#

...

#

bukkit runnables use threads

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 6:35 PM

#

ik, I just was too annoyed by the framework, so I used my own threads for async tasks

#

the sync ones are pretty useful

runic wadi Apr 30, 2020, 6:35 PM

#

the only thing I use the scheduler for is putting a task on the main thread

#

i'm under the assumption the async scheduler aligns with ticks or something

#

not certain

#

but it's bad

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 6:36 PM

#

if I'm in NMS classes of my plugins I just implement ITickable and register to the scheduler

runic wadi Apr 30, 2020, 6:37 PM

#

well who cares if an async task is performed without the ticks

#

the only part that matters is the last bit where you merge into the main thread if you have to

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 6:37 PM

#

I only use the tick stuff if I want to be sync

runic wadi Apr 30, 2020, 6:38 PM

#

so just write the code normally lol

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 6:38 PM

#

not if I want it to be executed every tick

runic wadi Apr 30, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

oh yeah then the bukkit scheduler is fine

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

in NMS i prefer the tickable option

runic wadi Apr 30, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

does it matter

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

ITickable is more clean

#

I don't use it in normal plugins because of the version dependence

#

It's a matter of taste

@vale slate having the event always be active isn't intensive

#

having it register / unregister is intensive

pastel condor Apr 30, 2020, 8:16 PM

#

I have that

#

but how would I know which world to add the friend to?

dusty topaz Apr 30, 2020, 8:17 PM

#

#

Map<UUID, UUID>

#

I was interested in the storage method

sage flint Apr 30, 2020, 8:19 PM

#

Maria DB

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:19 PM

#

so you use MariaDB on your server too?

sage flint Apr 30, 2020, 8:20 PM

#

Yea

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:20 PM

#

and change address to localhost:3306

sage flint Apr 30, 2020, 8:21 PM

#

Ok

dusty topaz Apr 30, 2020, 8:21 PM

#

makes no difference :p

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:22 PM

#

MariaDB is a very high rated bit**

sage flint Apr 30, 2020, 8:22 PM

#

Hmm? I am actually confused rn lol sry

vale slate Apr 30, 2020, 8:23 PM

#

MariaDB has the problem of very undefined errors

#

let me try it, one moment

sage flint Apr 30, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

Ahhh

#

Ok

pastel condor Apr 30, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

okay so I fixed one bug, but I am still left with the issue: how can I only add the player as a friend if they clicked the "add friend" button instead of just typing their name in chat?

dusty topaz Apr 30, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

in a gui?

#

or in a text component

pastel condor Apr 30, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

GUI

dusty topaz Apr 30, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

then just make it run the same code

pastel condor Apr 30, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

so I have my if (event.getRawSlot() == 35) { player.sendMessage("please type the player you want to add in chat"); //add friend }

dusty topaz Apr 30, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

run the same code you run in chat

pastel condor Apr 30, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

wdym?

#

but how would I check that they just clicked slot 35?

#

I would somehow have to send that data over?
