I am executing the command shift+right clicking then opening a powershell window and then executing the command "java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar spigot.jar" should i use another way to execute the command?

I have questions about between spigot and paper. Most of articles saying paper is better than spigot, but i think spigot is more better because plugins are mostly made on spigot, and plugin's performance is also better than paper's. Why articles saying and recommending to use Paper?

mellow wave Jun 11, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

Paper is a fork of spigot which means that most plugins working on spigot should also work on paper. Paper is built to have faster preformance. As for better plugin preformance on spigot where did you get that from?

undone narwhal Jun 11, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

Paper may remove some not noticeable "vanilla behavior" to imporve its performance. However you've to really know the game deep to notice it

#

All spigot plugins work on paper

gleaming helm Jun 11, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

Paper makes additional performance enhancements on top of spigot (essential if you want any kind of larger player base), and then Tuinity actually makes even more enhancements on top of paper (plus it's much more stable because the dev doesn't push unstable patches to master)

jaunty sundial Jun 11, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

Thank you for good informations. I read that articles which mean paper better than spigot on spigotmc threads. After reading the article, since then, I've wondered why they say so.

sturdy oar Jun 11, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

tbh if you're running recent versions theres no reason to not user Paper

gleaming helm Jun 11, 2020, 6:06 PM

tbh if you're running 1.15 there's no reason to not use tuinity

does anyone here know a player counter plugin that subtracts from the player counter when someone dies, to show how many people are actually alive?

#

also possibly a way to add the player back to the counter?

barren yarrow Jun 11, 2020, 6:21 PM

#

Is this the correct function of this?

if (player.getTotalExperience() > requiedXP ) {//if yes} {//if no}

odd knoll Jun 11, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

Looks so. Just use larger than or equals instead of just larger than.

barren yarrow Jun 11, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

Thats >= right?

odd knoll Jun 11, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

I can never remember, either >= or =>

#

Probably the first, what you said.

barren yarrow Jun 11, 2020, 6:24 PM

dusty topaz Jun 11, 2020, 6:30 PM

getTotalExperience is not all the exp a player has

it is the exp the player has had over a lifetime

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44197521/gradle-project-java-lang-noclassdeffounderror-kotlin-jvm-internal-intrinsics

You need to configure your project with kotlin. So in Android Studio:

click on Tools => kotlin => Configure kotlin in project

Then in dialog check : All module containing kotlin files

and select version

press ok

Done.

Any reason why i cant look at the raw source code of spigot in intellij

@subtle blade

#

Im pretty sure i used gradle not maven

#

Somebody recommended me to use maven though

subtle blade Jun 11, 2020, 7:32 PM

#

Ah you just want to open it from a dependency

#

API you should be able to open so long as sources are being downloaded alongside your dependency. Implementation (CraftBukkit) is a different story. Because it can't be hosted on the repository and it's only local installed to your Maven repository by BuildTools, source isn't really included in the typical sense

#

Generally you can rely either on your IDE's built-in decompiler or, if possible, attach source to your dependency to that provided by BuildTools. Not sure how that would be done in IJ, I'm sure someone more familiar with it can assist

proper cairn Jun 11, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

added it to dependencies and still having the same issue

#

Sources not found: Sources for 'spigot-1.15.2.jar' not found]

subtle blade Jun 11, 2020, 7:51 PM

#

Sources not found: Sources for 'spigot-1.15.2.jar' not found]
spigot != spigot api. API sources are available on the repository, CraftBukkit & Spigot implementation are not for legal reasons

#

Again, it's local installed to your Maven repository without sources. You would have to attach sources from BuildTools but I'm unsure how to do that. I use Eclipse

barren yarrow Jun 11, 2020, 7:57 PM

Could someone help me out here? So the main aim of this is to act like youre draining your exp from your levels and putting it into your mending gear but my problem is that even when the player has less than the required amount, it still completes the command, heres the pastebin;

https://paste.md-5.net/yacepusoje.java

#

I keep getting "Total experience points must not be negative (-772*)"

#

*This changes depending on tool damage

But I have -

player.setTotalExperience(player.getTotalExperience() -requiredXP);;

in place and it doesnt work

I've done few commissions in the past, i usually charge depending on how much time i'll plan to take for that software, and how complex it will be.

You also usually want to have some sort of legal sheet when you do commissions usually

#

Yeah no worries

#

Im still on that thing where Im putting mending on a command

#

So if an item has mending, it drains your exp and puts it "into" the tool/armour

subtle blade Jun 11, 2020, 9:42 PM

#

(1) onEnable() and onDisable(), if not used, do not need to be there. Override if you want to do something
(2) Invert and return
(3) Checking for == true is redundant. Just compare against the returned value. if (player.hasPermission("whatever")), for instance
(4) There is an ItemStack#containsEnchantment() method
(5) Please fix that indentation :(( If you're in Eclipse, Ctrl + A and Ctrl + Shift + I

#

(or Ctrl + I, I can never remember)

#

Example of invert and return:

// Before:
if (foo) {
    bar();
} else {
    example();
}

// After
if (!foo) {
    example();
    return;
}

bar();```

#

If you can invert and return without interrupting the flow of your code, do it. Avoid unnecessary indentation

sturdy oar Jun 11, 2020, 9:44 PM

#

this would make it more readable in my opinion

it's not the whole command, but you get the idea

subtle blade Jun 11, 2020, 9:46 PM

#

It's not that it's inherently bad. It's at least readable. Though as you progress in learning Java, you'll find that it gets messy when 50% of your code is spaces or tabs

You're arguing the difference between

public static void sendMessages(final Player player, final String... msgs) {

        player.sendMessage(msg);
}
``` Nothing is wrong with something like this

subtle blade Jun 11, 2020, 9:51 PM

#

Fendi, lore is a list of strings. So, yes? Technically

dusty topaz Jun 11, 2020, 9:51 PM

#

But with sendMessage

player.sendMessage("\n\n")
player.sendMessage("\n")

are equivalent

#

iirc

#

you can't have trailing newline

knotty surge Jun 11, 2020, 9:52 PM

#

Yea but it's also good to consider that another plugin might be sending a message at the same time

subtle blade Jun 11, 2020, 9:52 PM

#

Between the nanosecond of time that you're sending your message? Unlikely

dusty topaz Jun 11, 2020, 9:52 PM

#

not like processors can perform billions of operations / second

subtle blade Jun 11, 2020, 9:52 PM

#

Latency has to be taken into consideration I think is what he's getting at

#

because a sendMessage() is nothing more than a packet

#

(logging, yeah yeah, client sees it as a packet though)

#

I wouldn't rely on \n anyways. There's no guarantee that it will always be supported

#

Especially with the rise of text components

knotty surge Jun 11, 2020, 9:57 PM

#

text components work just fine with \n right

subtle blade Jun 11, 2020, 9:58 PM

#

They do but they also work just fine with the section symbol. As far as I'm aware, it's a remnant of legacy chat

knotty surge Jun 11, 2020, 9:58 PM

#

🤷‍♂️ other server softwares fully support \n

subtle blade Jun 11, 2020, 9:59 PM

#

That's fine but what we're concerned with is the vanilla server

#

Who may at any given time decide that legacy chat may be removed

#

What's important here is the client which may no longer support that character

#

What's done on the server is irrelevant

#

(unless it's parsed on the server and sent as individual messages - which would be strange lol)

so i have a class where if a certain block gets place it stores the blocks location in a file which works but im trying to make it so when the same block breaks it removes the location from the file and it doesnt even get to the first if statement

@EventHandler
    public void onDestroy(BlockBreakEvent e) {
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        Location blockLoc = e.getBlock().getLocation();
        FileConfiguration config = Main.getInstance().getConfig();
        if(e.getBlock().getType() == Material.getMaterial(config.getString("Summoners.Ores.Material"))) {
            if(Utils.oreSummonerLocs.contains(blockLoc.toString())) {
                Utils.oreSummonerLocs.remove(blockLoc.toString());
                e.setDropItems(false);
                blockLoc.getWorld().dropItem(blockLoc, Utils.OreSummoner());
            } else {
                System.out.println("Not in array");
            }
        }
    }

#

actually it doesnt store it in a file, it stores it in a String list then when server restarts it saves the list to a file and loads it

#

Utils.oreSummonerLocs is a String list that contains the locations as a string

odd knoll Jun 12, 2020, 1:17 AM

#

Try printing out the value of config.getStringetc.. and also what it then is when you do Material.getMaterial.

#

Also, you probably don't need to get it from the config file every time so as a general practice, it might be better to have it as a variable in the class.

Do this for all values. Then check if the List of valid options is empty, if so repeat. Finally once it's not empty, pick a random value out of that list

using String value = validList.get(random.nextInt(validList.size());

how would i do step 3

calculate the sum of all the weights

pick a random number that is 0 or greater and is less than the sum of the weights

go through the items one at a time, subtracting their weight from your random number until you get the item where the random number is less than that item's weight

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 4:36 AM

#

For loop, add up all of the item weights.

#

Divide each of the individual weights by the sum.

#

This effectively normalizes everything so the sum of all of the weights is 1.

#

Can I change my name only once?

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 4:37 AM

#

And then do the whole subtraction thing

#

So

#

Start with your random number right

#

For each element, do the following:
Subtract the weight of that element from the random number (rand -= weight).
If rand < 0, return the current element.

#

At the END of that loop (the random number was bigger than all other weights) then just return the last element.

#

It’s important to note - pick a random number and save it as a double type. Then subtract using -= from that variable that you created with the single random number.

This is one of the most efficient and simplest ways to do it for small numbers of elements like you have

#

For large numbers of elements you will want a different approach.

#

(By large we’re talking >100)

steady osprey Jun 12, 2020, 4:42 AM

how would i loop over each element

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 4:43 AM

#

Use a for each loop or use an indexed for loop

#

If you don’t know how to do either of those things you need to learn more about java.

ok so i'm having a problem where my server randomly crashes for seemingly no reason, https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uPVLaWmCpVAAPbh_LXvx1DeTjeLCL0lv/view?usp=sharing here is a google drive link to the part of the log where it crashed, it would be nice to know what's causing it as it happens completely randomly sometimes, even when not a single person was online for hours. The specific log I included was when me and my friend were both online however we were both just sitting still in a house we were building. CPU: I5 2500
5G allocated
plugins:
CoreProtect
LuckPerms
Multiverse (core netherportals portals and signportals)

I know the 2500 isn't the most powerful cpu but it can run it at 20 tps with a bunch of ppl on

i've only had this problem in the last few days

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 4:47 AM

Paper fixes a lot of that stuff afaik

Worth a shot to switch to paper or Tuinity

And that’s not a problem with CPU availability

quaint sinew Jun 12, 2020, 4:48 AM

when I used paper for some reason we had more tps problems somehow

Try Tuinity. Some builds of paper are really terrible

quaint sinew Jun 12, 2020, 4:48 AM

Tuinity is by far the best server fork for performance.

Is this the newest spigot build?

quaint sinew Jun 12, 2020, 4:50 AM

Spigot version: git-Spigot-800b93f-8160e29 (MC: 1.15.2) honestly not 100% sure but this is straight from the logs

Hello. I have read online that spigot has a built in anti x-ray feature, but I can't seem to find it. Was it removed, or am i looking in the wrong place?

i'll stick with tuinity so long as performance is good lol

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 4:55 AM

10x better than spigot

All the large 1.15 servers use Tuinity or a custom fork of it

sounds good, I might need more performance soon too considering I might have some new people joining the server soon

I'm a bit of a brainlet at this sort of thing and basically winging it so far for this server I am running. Is paper another plugin, or something else?

Paper is a higher performance fork of spigot

If you want to go a step further, Tuinity is an even higher performance fork of paper which has even more stability and performance

#

Ah, right. Well I'm using a remote hosting site to run my server and I'm not sure I can change over from spigot to paper now it's already set up.

#

What is the next best thing for anti-xray I could do?

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 5:02 AM

Tuinity is more stable than paper because the dev for it actually reverts the buggy paper patches (that for some dumb reason go straight to master... what the fuck)

Go through your host’s support, if you can’t change it yourself they’ll be able to

hearty frigate Jun 12, 2020, 5:03 AM

#

Right, but I can't use paper as my server is already running on spigot and I don't think I can change it. What is the next best thing?

#

Plus I have a massive amount of plugins already and I assume they require spigot.

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 5:03 AM

#

You can change it, it’s just a matter of swapping out the jar

#

Any plugin that runs on spigot will run on paper as well

#

Most will actually run better on paper due to async chunk loading abilities and such

hearty frigate Jun 12, 2020, 5:04 AM

Alright. While I do more research into paper, is there something in the meantime that would cover my bases regarding x-ray?

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 5:04 AM

No. Don’t. For the love of god PLEASE don’t install an anti X-ray plugin.

Hey, could anyone help me? I'm trying to add a plugin where the /nosleep command toggles you on and off of the nosleep list

                if (nosleep.contains(player)) {
                    nosleep.remove(player);
                    player.sendMessage(config.getString("RemovedFromNoSleep").replace("&", "§"));
                } else {
                    nosleep.add(player);
                    player.sendMessage(config.getString("AddedToNoSleep").replace("&", "§"));
                }

it seems to work just fine for the most part but for one player on my server, everytime they use the command, another instance of their player gets added to the nosleep list. What is happening? Would it be safer to just do nosleep.add(player.getName());?

final verge Jun 12, 2020, 5:06 AM

you should a) use their UUID b) use a set

Do both of the things he said and you’ll be fine

final verge Jun 12, 2020, 5:07 AM

a set is like a list, but it can only have one of the same thing in it at a time. So you can have 50 UUID's but my UUID can only be in there once

wet ferry Jun 12, 2020, 5:07 AM

#

why doesn't the list work with the player though?

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 5:07 AM

A set is also unordered (and a hashset in particular can check things like contains in O(1) time)

as opposed to O(n) from a list

anyone here every played with the loottable api? it seems to be kinda broken. I want to use a loottable that requires a block pos, I provide lootcontext that I created via the builder while only providing the location, but nms still throws the exception that it requires the pos

oh, looking at the code, it only passes the block pos if the context has an entity? that doesnt seem to make much sense

since bukkit requires you to provide a pos for a loot context, shouldn't craftbukkit always pass that location down to nms as block pos?

@hard crane I don't think item nbt transfers to an arrow when firing, (at least it didn't when I last tried to use that in 1.10 so it may have changed) you might be able to use the event API to detect a bow firing then get the arrow entity from that and re-add the persistent data

@wraith dew What do you mean by "custom entity" ?

@still pulsar Maybe from a plugin... Like a backup system or somthing like that I guess

question, back when I was running paper on 1.14.4 I had a bug where someone would enter the end portal to go home and they would get stuck in a black dimension basically forever

#

and the only way to fix it would be to reset playerdata

I looked into and never found out what the cause was, do you think it's safe to re open the portal considering it's been months and im running on different software?

What do you mean by getting stuck in a black dimension? @quaint sinew Any plugins editing the teleporting / worlds behaviors?

@sturdy oar In this case I would prefer a for loop

at that point i dont believe we had plugins, and I guess I could've worded it a little different, it's like we were stuck on a black loading screen

#

is that the problem?

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 5:59 PM

#

Well ok

#

Here's your other issue

#

Use EssentialsX

#

Essentials has a massive sync load problem

frigid ember Jun 12, 2020, 6:00 PM

#

How do i delete my spigot account

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 6:00 PM

#

Essentials blocks the main thread while chunks are loading. If you have slow disk or CPU, then you'll end up blocking for a while because loads can take quite a bit of time.

#

(EssentialsX properly supports async loads so all of that heavy chunk loading logic doesn't block the main thread and drop your TPS)

#

You also have a large garbage collector problem

#

Read this https://aikar.co/2018/07/02/tuning-the-jvm-g1gc-garbage-collector-flags-for-minecraft/

#

If you 1. use EssentialsX, and 2. Use the proper JVM flags, you'll have no TPS issues.

quaint sinew Jun 12, 2020, 6:02 PM

#

aight, i'll try it out but it might not be until later tonight until i can tell you whether it works well or not as i have to work at 4

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

Also the "crash" you experienced was due to the garbage collector stopping everything for 11.5 seconds to clean up.

quaint sinew Jun 12, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

so basically

#

our low tps is due to essentials and garbage collector stuff

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

Yes

#

Correct

quaint sinew Jun 12, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

I wonder why it wasnt having that specific problem on spigot tho

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 6:04 PM

Don't use essentials (it's unmaintained anyways) use EssentialsX, and follow the guide that I linked to fix the garbage collection

#

tbh, i swear I used essentialsx lmao but it doesnt seem like it

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 6:04 PM

#

I really don't know why this doesn't happen in spigot

#

But I mean

#

I know for a fact that Essentials is horribly optimized for Paper, EssentialsX doesn't have the sync load issue.

quaint sinew Jun 12, 2020, 6:05 PM

Current EssentialsX builds do async teleportation but it's effectively nulled by the fact teleport safety loads chunks sync

I'm having a weird issue in spigot, I setup my plugin to use mcspring-boot by Alan Gomez and replaced the spring-boot-starter-logging (which uses logback) with spring-boot-starter-log4j2, since spigot uses log4j2 (at least, spigot.jar contains a log4j2.xml file, so I assume that is the case). One reason that I had to do this, is because PaperMC only supports log4j2 (see: https://github.com/PaperMC/Paper/issues/3532).

It works fine in PaperMC now and in spigot it works fine in the logfile and logger gui, but in console every log line is printed twice. Anyone got any idea why this happens?

Using the latest 1.15.2 spigot server.

Heya boys, i got a question about ASync tasks. But in what instances do i use these? I have read that for example, these tasks should be used for Database gathering since it can freeze the server because it's on the main thread and can take a while. So, does this basically mean, you use a ASync task when you need to have a java loop every 15 minutes that doesn't use bukkit methods? (Single thread methods)

@viscid grove spigot is an API that let's you add PLUGINS, not MODS. If you want to add mods to a minecraft server, i recommend you search 'minecraft forge' on google.

subtle blade Jun 12, 2020, 10:16 PM

#

Spigot and Forge mods are not compatible

#

There have been attempts to merge the two projects in the past but they never succeed

Nor should they, really. The Bukkit API was designed strictly with vanilla in mind

Btw Choco, do you have an answer to my question about ASync BukkitRunnable tasks?

subtle blade Jun 12, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

Cauldron, for instance. Only made it up to 1.6.4 iirc. There is also another one being worked on at the moment but I have no idea where it's at and I forget its name

#

Asynchronous tasks should be used for processes that would otherwise halt the main thread (generally, IO - file reading, database operations, http, etc.)

#

Or strenuous tasks. But yeah, avoid the Bukkit API in asynchronous tasks. Some will work - such as sending messages and particles which are just queued packets - though more often than not they will not work

I think you're talking about sponge

worthy lava Jun 12, 2020, 10:19 PM

i.e. a collection may contain different things at any given time if two threads access the same collection at the same time

worthy lava Jun 12, 2020, 10:23 PM

That would be unlikely in my case, but i do get your point.

99.99999% of the time, people end up using Async threads for stupidly simple tasks anyways.

worthy lava Jun 12, 2020, 10:23 PM

#

As you said, 9 out of 10 cases it would work, but sometimes

This. Unless you have a specific reason (again I mention IO here), you likely don't need one

Take this example:
Two threads share a single variable, a. At the beginning we set A to 0.
Thread 1 wants to increment the value of A by 10. Thread 2 wants to increment the value by 20.

Thread 1 reads the value of A. The value is 0.
Thread 1 computes the new value of A to be 10.
Thread 2 reads the value of A. The value is still 0 because Thread 1 has not yet updated A.
Thread 1 updates the value of A. A is now 10.
Thread 2 computes the new value of A to be 20 (0 + 20 is 20)
Thread 2 sets the value of A to 20.

#

What see here is two threads each incrementing a number by a sum of 30

#

But at the end, the value is not 30.

AtomicInteger. Wtf? Solve

#

Another example!

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 10:25 PM

#

Atomic integer don't work when you have two processes acting on a database

#

You either need to do direct database actions (which, themselves, are thread safe) or use some other locking tricks

lusty vortex Jun 12, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

Depends on the database

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

Correct

#

That's why I included "some other locking tricks"

subtle blade Jun 12, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

Basically, multi threading is a headache

#

lol

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 10:26 PM

It can be if you're inexperienced

#

Things can easily go wrong.

Ok, so kevin, take this scenario in mind:
My BoosterManager starts an ASync task. This ASync task checks if the System.currentTimeInMilis(); is past a certain point. If it is, then remove it from the boosterList. The ASync method is the only method that removes boosters. What issues could arrise here?

lusty vortex Jun 12, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

Eh, there's just better concepts with Async operations. Everyone tries to apply them to basic ideas

#

Like using a consumer for example, with a queue to insert into a database

#

Basic shit, but can be async

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

If you have other threads that updating that booster information, you could have some race condition problems.

lusty vortex Jun 12, 2020, 10:28 PM

#

Copying stuff before reading it on another thread, Once again, basic, but async

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 10:28 PM

#

If all of your other threads only read that data you're probably okay

#

BUT

worthy lava Jun 12, 2020, 10:28 PM

#

Booster information cannot be updated, it's static (In the sense of it never changes, they are not literally static).

#

Booster information is only retrieved, not changed

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 10:28 PM

#

If your threads are iterating that data, and then another thread changes it. Then you get a CME and that's no fun at all to debug

#

If you're concerned, look into object locks

#

And how to PROPERLY use them while AVOIDING deadlock.

#

Long story short never hold 2 locks (unless you absolutely know what the fuck you're doing)

worthy lava Jun 12, 2020, 10:30 PM

#

Alright kevin, thanks for answering my questions! Same goes to you choco!

gleaming helm Jun 12, 2020, 10:30 PM

np bud

#

A note on deadlock - If each thread only ever can hold one lock at a time, you will never deadlock.

#

If a thread can hold more than one lock at a time, then you could run into a deadlock scenario, whereby two threads each are trying to acquire a lock that the other thread holds.

Can someone help me? The players on our server don't have acces to the whisper command anymore and the permisions command doesn't work either.

bronze marten Jun 12, 2020, 10:43 PM

#

You can prevent deadlock by 2phase lock protocol

#

Never lock again after u start first unlock
