@subtle blade So what do I need to do to make it work?
fickle flicker
Oh ok, should I run BuildTools at the root then?
subtle blade
Create a variable called player. Though this is something you should really understand if you want to update a plugin
No, create a folder on your desktop or somewhere you'll remember titled "BuildTools". Run it there
BT generates a lot of files so it's best to keep it all in a single folder
fickle flicker
Ok, thanks ๐
raven flare
Yeah obviously I need the variable player but how do I set it to the player?
brisk agate
either do
Player player = event.getPlayer();
just do that
above the if statement

Hey guys after I updated to 1.16.1 from 1.15.2 nametags (above player head) stopped working. I removed all my plugins from spigot server and nametags still didn't work anyone have any idea what might cause this? I really spent a whole 2 days figuring out what might cause this but without luck..

3 of the plugins I'm running can't get InventoryClickEvent passed to them, is there a setting in Spigot that's causing this?
pastel condor
it's a plugin @green cedar
wraith thicket
I don't think PAPI has one for listing worlds
green cedar
So he is asking how to use the features of a specific plugin, not how to code using spigot API?
wraith thicket
Yes, which is a totally valid question to ask here.
green cedar
Yes, i wasn't knocking the question. Just assumed he was asking how to code. Im not familiar with existing plugins. So i will shhhh now.
wraith thicket
@latent rock What do you mean by "can't get InventoryClickEvent passed to them"?
Did you code these plugins or are you simply using them?
Also, inventory clicks don't work the same when you're in creative mode, by the way
If you want to code it youself, then sure

I'm getting a really strange bug where players' inventories disappear when moving worlds. It's gone visually but comes back if
- The player clicks on any slot in the invenotry
- The player relogs
I thought it might be related to the inventory click event errors
wraith thicket
@tranquil edge You can simply Server#getWorlds
opal heron
@latent rock do you have a plugin that seperates inventories?
latent rock
No
opal heron
or do you lose the items when you travel
latent rock
It's still there when I use /invsee on them but they can't see it. It's fixed by clicking on an inv slot or relogging

I'm trying to set up a "bleed" effect on a player, where every 1 second they lose 1/2 a heart for 5 seconds.
I implemented the following method to do so:
private void bleed(Player defendingPlayer, Player attackingPlayer) {
int counter = 0;
while(counter < 5) {
Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskLater(Statics.getJavaPlugin(), new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
defendingPlayer.damage(1.0, attackingPlayer);
}
}, (counter * 20));
counter++;
}
}

open with a boolean
wraith thicket
@frigid ember I'm guessing you've implemented that in the EntityDamageEntityEvent? That event will get called again every time you call the #damage method with an entity source

Don't specify the source

upgrading from X to Y directly is preferred over upgrading from X one intermediate version at a time
this is because the converters used in world conversion do contain some bugs that have usually been fixed with later updates
sturdy oar
It depends, sometimes people haven't been able to directly update from X to Y without intermediate steps
half finch
mmm, according to md_5's latest post all worlds should be updated to 1.15.2 before being updated to 1.16
pastel nacelle
i don't care about what md69 says
half finch
But he is spigot god
pastel nacelle
fact is that 1.16 converters contain all of the tools and more that were used in 1.15 to convert worlds from pre-1.15
said converters have also received bugfixes in 1.16 that those in 1.15 haven't
half finch
fact is md_5 said
Upgrading
Although upgrades from between any two version pairs are technically possible, it is recommended that all upgrades are conducted from 1.15.2. This means that you should first upgrade your world completely on 1.15.2 using the --forceUpgrade server argument, and then do the same on 1.16.1.
pastel nacelle
jokes aside, using 1.15 to convert pre-1.15 world risks you to the bugs in the converters introduced in 1.15
bugs that have been patched in 1.16
half finch
I am assuming that he said that as 1.16 is still in the experimental stages and the converter could be more unstable/worse bugs
pastel nacelle
the 1.15 converters in 1.16 are the exact same as the 1.15 converters in 1.15, except for bugfixes

Speaking of bugs (not sure if it's ok to ask here), has anyone had issues with end gateways not spawning after the dragon is killed?
Someone killed the dragon a second time but they said something about how new gateways weren't spawned.
I honestly don't play minecraft much myself, so I wasn't sure if this was a common issue.
I saw this was a bug back in 20w20a and 20w21a, but it was patched in 20w22a
pastel nacelle
I remember that being reported, but I don't remember if it was an actual issue or just a case of weird misconfiguration
quartz sandal
And checking the level.dat confirms they did spawn at some point.
Yeah. I wasn't sure if there was supposed to be something specific for multiplayer. Like if there are known things people modify to allow people to play the end dragon like it is always the first time.
Or if it is supposed to just work by itself without anyone touching it.

Is there another way of stopping a player without cancelling the PlayerMoveEvent? So far I've tried this:
event.getPlayer().setWalkSpeed(0); event.getPlayer().addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.JUMP, Integer.MAX_VALUE, 250));
but it still let's people move a tiny bit when they press spacebar

One of my plugins assigns timestamps to certain items when they spawn. The idea is for crops that get harvested to get a timestamp assigned to them so that they go bad eventually. Unfortunately, it has come to my attention that when players drop items with food stamps and pick them back up, a new food stamp is applied. My question is:
When players drop an item, is the ItemSpawnEvent called? And if so, is there a way to tell if the item was dropped by a player?
pastel nacelle
use BlockDropItemEvent
pastel arrow
PlayerDropItemEvent... also just check if the item already has a time stamp
green cedar
Why not use the block break event to assign the time stamp.
Then no need to mess around with dropped items.

@green cedar I don't use the block break event because it is supposed to work for mob drops as well.
When an item spawns from either crops or a animals, a timestamp is assigned to it.
Do I just need to use two separate events?
pastel nacelle
well tbh
you should use that other guy's advice
don't assign a timestamp it it exists already
sturdy oar
Timestamp like System.getCurrentMillis() ?
pastel nacelle
also in my humble opinion the timestamp should be like the current hour and not something like milliseconds

It is the current hour ๐

rotund orbit

rotund orbit
I added it earlier and it didn't work lol
maybe it's a problem with my timestamp system

@sturdy oar getCurrentMillis() is backed by the system OS's method call for that, so if you have a 64bit OS the answer is no it won't
sturdy oar
So it only affects 32 and lower?

I get insane compile time since when I've started using final
opal adder
I thought final was just java's way of saying "const" wait am I wrong
opal adder
Na I'm not wrong, I googled that shit
sturdy oar
I also use it in classes and method parameters
keen compass
should really only use final, if you really need the value to not be changed/manipulated
opal adder
Yea exactly, okay so I've not been using it wrong
sturdy oar
Which is 90% of the times Frostalf
keen compass
otherwise, as far as optimizations go, it doesn't do anything really
sturdy oar
And that is why Kotlin has final method parameters by default
pastel nacelle
"need x to not be changed" is not the same as "don't need x to be changed"
bold anchor
Don't you dare dirty kotlin by comparing it to yur shit.
keen compass
just because Kotlin does something, doesn't mean it should be the standard
or that it is the best way possible
pastel nacelle
only cases where you need x to not be changed is like lambdas and shit
keen compass
most of the time x won't change on its own anyways
usually it is because of some other plugin changing it on you ๐
unless you are doing something to manipulate the stuff in which it is handy to know the variable you get won't change later after that
pastel nacelle
not like final is going to stop anybody from changing it if they really want to change it
keen compass
yeah there is that too lol
pastel nacelle
i think 14 started to put some stops on that though
subtle blade
should really only use final, if you really need the value to not be changed/manipulated
Or if you don't want a member to be overridden by a child class

not what we are talking about but yeah technically yes

I have many abstract class with final methods
It makes sure you can't change that when extending the class

i'm sure we all know what final does
bold anchor
Stop being a fucking weirdo
keen compass
Kind of defeats the purpose of abstract in that case but whatever it is your projects ๐
sturdy oar
I'm not weird I code that way and many others do
bold anchor
There is a appropriate places to use final in java, everywhere is not it.
keen compass
only thing I am saying is that, it isn't correct to attempt to force people to use final everywhere just because you do ๐
pastel nacelle
abstract classes can and should have final methods when necessary
keen compass
when necessary yes
but it shouldn't be for everything though
otherwise you might as well just have a normal class lol

clearly yeah lol

Does anyone know what would cause hoppers to "randomly" stopping functioning? I've had this issue ever since I started running my server. For some reasons my players normal hoppers just kind of stopping transferring items, so they have to re-place their hopper system to get it to work again. I used to think this wasn't even fixable, but maybe one of you guys know
I suspect it could be them leaving chunks and re-joining, or maybe during a server reboot whilst the hopper is transferring items that could cause it, but I honestly don't know

I have no idea what plugin would even cause that, I don't use special hopper plugins

it's not meant for storing big amount of data

Also isn't SQLite driver written in native
opal adder
I mean but if you read to the file when the plugin starts, and only places values into it when the plugin disables, is that really in-efficient?
quartz trench
it obviously works its just many times slower
the point of yaml is that it's human readable
not for storing data
opal adder
Da fuck? They use YML storage, at least that I know of. When I look players up in the plugin, it's all yml

My question is how did you manage sending the packet when the player comes into range of the campfire

the packet wrapper can help a lot too

tl:dr if you know how to work with packets, you can make some things far, far beyond what the API would allow.
what's NMS?
pastel nacelle
i didn't really do anything range related
wise flame
lol
pastel nacelle
i just listen to chunk map packets and spoof the campfire state after sending them

so whenever the player gets a serverside chunk update, the campfire is also sent

Do you scan each chunk for a campfire or check for specific locations

if the chunk coords are in the cache i get the bonfires from the cache in that chunk and send the packets for them

probably just sending create/destroy entity packets depending on how far the player is from each hologram

use an enumset, a tag, or a switch
insead of if or or or or or spaghetti
also, that metadata value is keyed by your plugin
boreal tiger
a switch would be unnecessary if its a single if statement
frigid ember
Okay, but what about the problem I'm having?
subtle blade
As for what you're doing, that's not how you update block data
subtle blade
Metadata is a completely different concept. In-fact, it's a plugin-exclusive concept
You want to modify BlockData
frigid ember
I tried checking BlockData and it only gives me a string of it
I don't know what to do with it
subtle blade
Cast that BlockData accordingly. There is a type for trapdoors
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/block/data/type/TrapDoor.html
Cast, change what you need, re-set it with Block#setBlockData()
subtle blade
For the sake of clarification, what you were using - metadata - is a plugin concept to temporarily attach non-persistent data to a metadatable object (entities and blocks)
A way for mods to communicate with one another that gets fairly under-used
frigid ember
Oh
I never knew about BlockData and other stuff to be honest, I started programming one plugin like 3 days ago
subtle blade
BlockData is used to change a block's states (i.e. half, facing, waterlogged, etc. - the things you'd see in the F3 debug screen on the right), BlockState is used to interact with a block's tile entity (chest contents, furnaces, brewing stands, etc.)

1 small question why when i use p.gettworld(). getname() doesn't work on PlayerChangedWorldEvent
frigid ember
May I ask, where can I find all events that I can use? Like onLogin, onPlace, onBreak and etc
pastel nacelle
in the docs
subtle blade
Player#getWorld() will be the world the player is currently in
Events are called immediately before an action occurs
Any new state is passed to the event. If you want the name of the new world, PlayerChangedWorldEvent should have a method to get the new world
I think it's getTo()?
halcyon snow
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/Event.html
look at the subclasses of this class. @frigid ember
hardy cedar
I mean im trying to get the world name he joines in so if(p.getworld().getname() == "name"){
Do something
}
Im using phone
Oof
heavy urchin
https://hastebin.com/pehazolole.java
can someone tell me what I am doing wrong here? it still wont give me the effects when I rename the helmet to test
subtle blade
ArmorEquipEvent is not part of the Spigot API
heavy urchin
I have a package for it tho
subtle blade
@hardy cedar , Strings cannot be compared with == in the majority of cases
heavy urchin
in the plugin jar
subtle blade
So then two things. (1) Check to make sure your event is actually calling, (2) Ensure that you've registered your event listeners
hardy cedar
@hardy cedar , Strings cannot be compared with == in the majority of cases
I wasted my life on nothing oof
subtle blade
.equals()
== is referential equality, meaning the objects are the exact same instance in memory.
Because Strings are immutable and created every time an operation is performed on it, more often than not, they're not == comparable
hardy cedar
So that method can be for example a player name @subtle blade ?
subtle blade
Anything that's a String, really. Strings should be compared with .equals()
Or, rather, most things should be
General rule of thumb is that if it's not a primitive (int, boolean, long, etc.) or a constant (enum), you should be comparing with .equals()
hardy cedar
Also that didn't work btw to get the world name oof
pastel nacelle
let us start an argument on whether we should use == or eq for enums
heavy urchin
choco I am have that in the plugin
subtle blade
No. If you use .equals() for enums, you're stupid and that's final
pastel nacelle
but muh primitives and things
quick arch
I think I used it once ๐ค
pastel nacelle
i actually don't remember what the argument is for using eq on enums
i remember seeing a whole shitstorm about it a while ago
wise flame
I just imported nms and I don't see any obfuscation
quick arch
Choco it's ok, let them be Bob
wise flame
Isn't it supposed to be hellish?
quick arch
๐
subtle blade
Not sure but it wouldn't be valid considering enums can't even override equals()
Skyy, CraftBukkit maps a small part of NMS. It maps what it uses
wise flame
well yeah, I know that, but what about what it doesn't map? Why don't I see any of that?
subtle blade
All class names are mapped, though methods, fields and nested classes aren't all mapped
In fact, most aren't
wise flame
Ah, that makes more sense
hardy cedar
The event doesn't even work for me i just used it to say hi and it didn't
frigid ember
Replacing that big IF statement with ```java
if (block.getState() instanceof TrapDoor)
Is it the correct way of implementing it?No because it's not a state, it's a BlockData
wise flame
NMS actually seems like a lot of fun. I know what I'm getting myself into.
subtle blade
Though you're probably best to use the Tag.TRAPDOORS.isTagged(block.getType())
frigid ember
oh

Thank you!

how to give a player his skull as a join item and add a command to it ? ๐ค i think thats just hard idk
grim halo
@hardy cedar Getting the head of an online player is pretty easy:
private ItemStack getHead(final Player player) {
final ItemStack itemSkull = new ItemStack(Material.PLAYER_HEAD);
final SkullMeta skullMeta = (SkullMeta) itemSkull.getItemMeta();
skullMeta.setDisplayName("ยงfSkull of " + player.getName());
skullMeta.setOwningPlayer(player);
itemSkull.setItemMeta(skullMeta);
return itemSkull;
}
Adding a command to it could be done in a similarly simple fashion or very modular.
hardy cedar
ik hot to get it but to add a command on right click is hard
PlayerInteractEvent
doesnt help me
grim halo
Do you want to run a command when the player holds it in his hand and interacts with it?
hardy cedar
yes
grim halo
Why does PlayerInteractEvent not help you then?
hardy cedar
becouse i cant put the ItemStack item in when i do have a private / public method
grim halo
I dont understand that sentence. Could you give me a bit more context?
hardy cedar
i cant do e.getItem and item name in that case u sent to me
if(event.getItem().equals(yourCustomItemStack))โ
icant call it in the itemstack point
grim halo
@EventHandler
public void onInteract(final PlayerInteractEvent event) {
if (event.getHand() != EquipmentSlot.HAND) {
return;
}
final ItemStack item = event.getItem();
if (item == null || item.getType() != Material.PLAYER_HEAD) {
return;
}
// Here you can use the item
}
Ah ok your problem is equals.
You dont need to check if one item equals the other.
It is sufficient to check the name for example.
hardy cedar
event.getHand?
grim halo
@EventHandler
public void onInteract(final PlayerInteractEvent event) {
if (event.getHand() != EquipmentSlot.HAND) {
return;
}
final ItemStack item = event.getItem();
if (item == null || item.getType() != Material.PLAYER_HEAD) {
return;
}
final ItemMeta skullMeta = (SkullMeta) item.getItemMeta();
final String itemName = skullMeta.getDisplayName();
if (!itemName.startsWith("ยงfSkull of ")) {
return;
}
final String playerName = itemName.replace("ยงfSkull of ", "");
}
That would be one examle on how to check some values of the item
hardy cedar
gethand isnt a thing for me
grim halo
The interact event is fired for the left hand and the right hand. We only want the event with the right hand
Are you on 1.8?

I dont care then. The version 6 years old.
You can just leave the check away then.
If there is only one hand then the first 3 lines are obsolete

The chunk that's crashing the server should be among the chunks that I deleted and reset for the nether update

Would it be ok for you to delete the nether completely?

wise flame
this isn't exactly related to Spigot, but I have a question. I tend to use static variables pretty often. Is that a bad thing for any reason?
I figure it's not but I want to make sure lol
grim halo
static variables have their place but they are pretty rare in java.
90% of spigot plugins should not need any static variables. In fact you could probably
Write every plugin without the use of a single static keyword.
Its not inherently bad to use them but in many cases the static keyword gets abused by
ppl who did not take the time to properly learn how to write proper java code and just jumped into
spigot heads first.
If you send me some code examples i am happy to give you some advice.

@tough kraken https://github.com/NerdNu/MobLimiter

tough kraken
that wont work, that are custom entities, they got spawned infinitely, i mean can i check if there already are for example 32 entities in the chunk where the entity spawns?
i am manually spawning them per plugin
can i use this?
if (event.getLocation().getChunk().getEntities().length == 16) { return; } else { loc.getWorld().spawnEntity(loc, randomEntities); }
and if yes, what would be a good amount of entities per chunk? would 45 work for most Servers?

@plush kraken Alt account is against the rules.

final int a = this.sumUp(1);
final int b = this.sumUp(1, 2, 3, 4);
final int c = this.sumUp(new int[]{10, 11, 13});
final int d = this.sumUp();
Those are some valid method calls. However new int[] is redundant here.

ArrayList > List > Collection > Iterable
Thats the hirarchy
Same goes for LinkedList (It also implements Deque and other stuff)
LinkedList > List > Collection > Iterable
But essentially you can always cast a LinkedList or ArrayList to a List but not the other way around.

BlockPlaceEvent? You want them to rotate so the show at the trapdoors right?
frigid ember
Hmm actually right that could solve the problem, I'm stupid.
grim halo
@naive goblet So pls enlighten me. I think there is only one very specific case where you would use a LinkedList other than that its rly bad.

Yes. I know all of that and have written multiple benchamarks with the JMH to test a lot of cases that where not covered in articles and whitepapers.

High ram usage. O(n) index access O(n) index insert O(n) index removal.
Rly slow iteration time. 5x slower than a ArrayDeque when used as a queue.

Yes itโs known for slowness thatโs true
Well I donโt know why you would use it in that case when you need something faster
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ

There is one case i would use it:
You want ordered element iteration with O(1) remove and O(1) insert time while doing so.
@frigid ember I think you do not want to worry about the rotation at plugin level.
If you use your own resourcepack you can as well just implement rotation based on
surrounding blocks there.

Not with NMS either
gaunt fern
hey I keep getting a build error for Spigot 1.16.1. I tried updating BuildTools, different command syntax etc
karmic sable
Can you show logs DanDeMedicMan
grim halo
Ok then i think its a better aproach not using nms.
So dont create a class that extends EntityArrow.
Spigot alternative:
- Create a manager class. For example called "ArrowManager"
- You will have only one instance of this class so you will create one in your onEnable.
- For the sake of ease you implement Listener and Runnable
- This manager maintains a private final Set<Arrow> of tracked arrows.
- create EventHandler methods that add the arrows to the List when theyve been shot
- create EventHandler methods that remove the arrow when it hits somethin (or gets unloaded!)
- In your run method you write a for each that iterates over every arrow and spwans particles on their location.
- Register this one instance of your manager with the PluginManager as Listener
- Use the same instance to schedule a task that runs ever or every other tick with the BukkitScheduler
karmic sable
I'll try that, 7smile7, thanks

Probably because the player never on the server, so it retrieves offline player by name from GameProfile

Deprecated. Persistent storage of users should be by UUID as names are no longer unique past a single session.

if your server is set to offline
vernal spruce

frigid ember

vernal spruce
names
frigid ember
ah
vernal spruce
but uuid will always be the same
frigid ember
wasn't it displayname?
if its online mode it will be online
OfflinePlayer op = Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(/* your name to lookup*/);
if (op.hasPlayedBefore()) {
UUID uuid = op.getUniqueId();
} else {
//hasn't played before
}```no
bro offlineplayer means hes not on the server
and onlineplayer means hes online
keen compass
UUID's are generated from player names if server is offline mode, so there is no guarantee that any two players are the same
