IeffLib

ohk

[tender shard]

I just checked it

[simple silo]

in onEnable you usually setup things like registering commands and listeners

[rough drift]

@rain mason read this btw

it tells you all the methods you can use

[rain mason]

alr

[rough drift]

if you want to run it async you can use acceptAsync iirc

[quaint mantle]

@gray merlin https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/plugin/java/JavaPlugin.html#onLoad()
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/plugin/java/JavaPlugin.html#onEnable()
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/plugin/java/JavaPlugin.html#onDisable()

[rough drift]

nvm

[tender shard]

onLoad() basically gets called after your plugin instance was created

[charred blaze]

two of my players reported that they are lagging on join. screen prints loading terrain and lags...

[tender shard]

so yeah, ofc it runs after /reload

[gray merlin]

I... I really don't know how one would enable or disable a plugin...

[charred blaze]

its not doing so on other servers

[rough drift]

their pc's

[gray merlin]

I thought you just got the .jar, put it in /plugins and that's that.

[tender shard]

what's your actual question? 🙂

[charred blaze]

its not same on other servers

[rain mason]

wait just a qucik question, why is intellij complaining?

[rough drift]

It has a generic

so like

CompletableFuture<YourType>

[gray merlin]

You got me there. I don't know how one disables or enables a plugin, so I didn't know what onEnable or onDisable did. So my actual question would be: How does one disable/enable a plugin?

[tender shard]

because you're using COmpleteableFuture instead of CompleteableFuture<?>

[tardy delta]

the server does that, you dont have to care bout that

[rough drift]

Just do CompletableFuture<String>

[tender shard]

you dont have to worry about that, the PluginManager does this for you.

[gray merlin]

Alright then, thank you.

[quaint mantle]

in your case the type is CompletableFuture<String>, it is used for type inference. If you don't explicitly say only Strings or other types go in there, it will always default to a Object.

[rough drift]

They want to probs know how to do it to others

[gray merlin]

No, no, I just wanted to get an understanding of what enabling/disabling is, but since it's something managed internally, I don't need to worry about it.

[rough drift]

You should always use CompletableFuture<?> or CompletableFuture<Object> in the case that you do not want one specific

[rain mason]

@rough drift @tender shard sorry, my discord crashed lmfao
okay, thanks! i didnt read the docs yet so I was confused

[rough drift]

You can also call Bukkit.getPluginManager().disablePlugin(plugin) to disable

[simple silo]

any ideas?

[rough drift]

you can't do the same to enable

[rough drift]

iirc there's a way to check worldborder distance

[tender shard]

1. Server starts
2. It does internal stuff
3. It loads your plugin's class
4. it calls your plugins onLoad()
5. it calls your plugins onEnable()

On /reload, it does the same except for 1 and 2

[gray merlin]

I see. We could in theory add a command to disable our plugin and stuff then.

[rough drift]

ye

[subtle folio]

nerd

[rough drift]

but you can't enable it back

[rain mason]

wait, there's two "onStart" functions?

[rough drift]

ye

onEnable and onLoad

[tender shard]

onLoad() and onEnable(), yes

[willow widget]

anyone knows how to get the villager involved in a TradeSelectEvent event?

[subtle folio]

csnt register commands and listeners in onload 😭

[gray merlin]

I see. So there's no need for me to re-route onLoad to onEnable or anything of the sorts.

[tender shard]

no, you do not have to do that

[echo granite]

when onLoad is used over onEnable?

[subtle folio]

before on enable

[rough drift]

commandmap go BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[echo granite]

edited my question

[tender shard]

in 99% of cases, you should put your "onenable" logic into onEnable()

if you ever need onLoad(), that's a very rare thing

I got like 20 plugins on spigotMC and none of those requires the onLoad method

[gray merlin]

I'm using onLoad to create a subdirectory in my mod's folder, and subdirectories for each world inside it. Would that be a correct application for onLoad?

[tender shard]

you can do that in onEnable

[rough drift]

IG it's cleaner

[gray merlin]

Because it would also make sense to do that during "loading" semantically.

[tender shard]

you really only need onLoad if you need some custom class loading things or similar

[gray merlin]

I see.

Thanks!

[tender shard]

np

just put everything you have in onLoad at the "start" of your current onEnable method

then you are totally fine

it basically works like this

1. CraftBukkit does new YourPlugin(...)
2. CraftBukkit calls your onLoad()
3. CraftBukkit calls your onEnable()

and on reaload. it does the same thing

[gray merlin]

Yep, I understood that. Oh, I will also have to apologise for the frequent questioning, I'm just starting out on plugin-making, and it's a huge relief from Forge, so I'm kind of excited, lol.

[severe turret]

oh yeah alex

[tender shard]

np lol

[gray merlin]

Another alex, hello!

[willow widget]

hewo?

[severe turret]

Should I use a BukkitRunnable in runTaskAsync or a normal runnable

[tender shard]

a normal runnable

[severe turret]

it tells me runTaskAsync with BukkitRunnable is deprecated

ty

[tender shard]

you can of course also use a Consumer<BukkitTask>

[tardy delta]

Runnable

[severe turret]

does that work just like Runnable

or some special stuff required

[tardy delta]

works

() -> yourstuff

[tender shard]

so, either use a Runnable, or a Consumer<BukkitTask>

[tardy delta]

im wondering, isnt a return required to stop at that moment?

[tender shard]

but never use a BukkitRunnable i nthe scheduler

[severe turret]

oki

[tardy delta]

@urban grotto kekw

[tender shard]

thats perfectly fine

[tardy delta]

smh

[severe turret]

oh yeah

if I have an event cancel

should I also return?

like

[tender shard]

depends

[severe turret]

if theres code after the event cancel as well

[earnest forum]

if u have further lines of code then no

[tender shard]

do you want the further code to execute? No -> return, Yes -> dont return

[severe turret]

aight

[tender shard]

this for example would quit running the whole thing when someone "is doing weird things". If they don'T, it says "it's fine"

[gleaming grove]

is there any efficient and quick way to load yml file to Map<String,String>() like ('gui.base.insert','a'), ('gui.base.remove','b')....

[tender shard]

no

[tender shard]

you'll have to parse the ConfigurationSection yourself if you want to get it as Map<String, String>

[severe turret]

can you not use ConfigurationSection().getKeys() for that?

[gleaming grove]

I've make research on YAML library itself but It only case content of yaml file to objects

[tender shard]

no, it would only return "base" or "gui"

[gleaming grove]

ok then I going to read file by myself

[tender shard]

whut

you dont have to do that

pls explain what you are trying to achieve

[gleaming grove]

the Map keys are all pathes in yaml file

full paths

[gray merlin]

Is there a way to get a player's playerdata? I saw that player.saveAll returns void, so yeah.

[chrome beacon]

What do you need to do with it?

[gray merlin]

moving the playerdata file around in directories.

[tardy delta]

lmao

[gray merlin]

No, no, that's incorrect.

Moving a player's data around through worlds.

It would be easier to just use the entire playerdata

[chrome beacon]

Why do you need to do that?

[gray merlin]

It's the culmination of a very, very outdated version in a server I play with, alongside a giant amount of stuff that goes on there. It would take loads of time to explain the entire context, lol. I just need to have the player in different states across worlds.

[gleaming grove]

could't you just get the playerdata folder and copy 'data' for selected player to another folder?

[chrome beacon]

If you just have multiple worlds loaded in spigot you don't need to move the data around yourself

[gray merlin]

I thought i'd ask if there's a standard way to do it first.

[gray merlin]

In this very specific scenario I need to do it, unfortunately. It's not for spigot exactly, rather, thermos, which runs spigot plugins.

[chrome beacon]

oh so an unsupported version

Yeah just copy the file around

[gray merlin]

I can use saveAll to force the playerdata to be saved, right?

[chrome beacon]

Yeah

[gray merlin]

Alright, thank you.

[rain mason]

holy sh-t I didnt think of that

[chrome beacon]

No idea if that works with modded data

I wouldn't expect it to

[gleaming grove]

but does copying files would be safe?

i mean playerdata might constains some world properies

[chrome beacon]

It contains the location

Other than that it's fine

Can't say the same for modded data

[gray merlin]

Yes, that won't be an issue

[rain mason]

@rough drift i'm guessing something like this? i'm gonna test it rq, but i just wanna check with you just to be sure ```java
pl.closeInventory();
pl.sendMessage(String.format(plugin.makeMessage("messages.clanstuff.messages.prompt-string"), clanstuff[1]));

            CompletableFuture<String> futr = new CompletableFuture<String>();
            waitForChat.put(pl.getUniqueId(), futr);
            try {
                String yippee = futr.get();
                clann.set("settings."+clanstuff[1], futr);
                waitForChat.remove(pl.getUniqueId());
            } catch (InterruptedException|ExecutionException ignored) {}```

[rough drift]

yee

it will block the whole thread

so make sure to use a separate thread

[tardy delta]

new CompletableFuture<>().get() 🤔

[visual tide]

Well done, you've escaped the simulation

the other way would have been gitignoring .gitignore

[tardy delta]

anyways does this make sense?

class ChatChannel {
  Set<User> joinedPlayers;
}

class User {
  ChatChannel joinedChannel;
}```

[gleaming grove]

instead of Set<User> consider map<UUID,User> to make it faster

[severe turret]

User is probably his object that contains all that no?

[rain mason]

never really worked with threads, will thius work?

[severe turret]

from what I've heard

you should never really use Thread

instead use Runnables

[willow widget]

Anyone knows how to get the villager involved in a TradeSelectEvent?

[severe turret]

new Runnable() = () -> {};

[gleaming grove]

but thread is runnable

[severe turret]

yes

but less typing

and there's other things why you shouldnt really explicitly use Thread

[rain mason]

alright, is there a way to run a runnable without a thread?

[gleaming grove]

when you are running operation in thread some spigot calls like player.getInventory().setItem() will throw exceptions

[severe turret]

yes

Runnable is interface of Thread

[severe turret]

maybe something like this

idk if its wrong

[proper notch]

From what I can tell, your approach should be different although I'm not 100% sure what you're trying to accomplish.

Instead of creating a new thread for every time you want to wait for someone to chat, you should instead just track the state of a user (are we waiting for them to type it in chat, in a map) then listen for chat events.

[cunning canopy]

what directory is plugins run from?

[chrome beacon]

plugins

[gray merlin]

What is it called when a player is riding something? I know that the something has the player as the passenger, but what's the other way around?

Alternatively, how do I get the entity a player is riding?

[gleaming grove]

you can get entitis from specific location and check if one of then has player as passager

var entities = loc.getWorld().getNearbyEntities(player.getLocation(), 3, 3, 3);

[tardy delta]

var 🤮

[gray merlin]

That makes sense. Thank you.

[gleaming grove]

'var` 😄

3, 3, 3 this parameters means how huge scanning area is

[gray merlin]

My personal opinion is that var is underrated. In production code, sure, never. But for quick scripting, proof of theory, or similar, it's very much usable.

[gray merlin]

Figured, but thank you for the confirmation!

[gleaming grove]

var is more handy than figuring out that kind of obejct a function returns

[tardy delta]

and you have to figure out what it actually returns all yourself

if you need it

[cunning canopy]

why is all the materials deprecated?

[gray merlin]

Yep. But in production code, I would never accept a pull request with it. I wouldn't want to lose type safety because of that, and it is a pain for further development and maintenance. I would allow it for unit testing, scripting, etc.

[chrome beacon]

Only the old legacy materials are deprecated

[gleaming grove]

Well in all companies I;ve ever been working var was always required in code style check

[gray merlin]

That's weird, but I guess everyone has a style.

[gleaming grove]

but I'm working in as C# developer maybe in java people use diffrent approach

[gray merlin]

Funnily enough, I also develop in C#. There, I would only allow var in stuff like foreach loops and unimportant places where even the IDEA agrees that TS isn't needed

[gleaming grove]

like for me it makes sence because in production you have classes like UserManagementAccountService

so it is better to write var service = new UserManagementAccountService() then UserManagementAccountService service = new UserManagementAccountService()

[tardy delta]

foreach (var s in list)

i did C# too and i didnt really like it

[tardy delta]

or dont give your class such a long name lol

[gray merlin]

I just realised, i've been saying "type safety", but I meant "type inference", in my head it made sense.

I'll correct everything lol, but still, I understand your point.

[gleaming grove]

the thing i hate the most in java is that i could not make new instance of generic type

[gleaming grove]

that's a one advantage that C# has

[willow widget]

I got

java.lang.ClassCastException: class org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_16_R3.inventory.CraftMerchant cannot be cast to class org.bukkit.entity.Villager (org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_16_R3.inventory.CraftMerchant and org.bukkit.entity.Villager are in unnamed module of loader 'app')

when doing

    @EventHandler
    public void onTradeSelect(TradeSelectEvent event) {
        // Fuck villager trading lmao
        Villager villager = (Villager) event.getMerchant();
        Player player = (Player) event.getWhoClicked();
        event.setCancelled(true);
        event.getView().close();
        
        villager.setHealth(0);
    }

Any clues why?

[hybrid spoke]

or you pass in an supplier with T as type

otherwise reflection

[gleaming grove]

yes it could be done like that

[gray merlin]

Ah, yes! I was modding yesterday and tried to do that, and I was honestly just baffled that we can't do it lol.

[chrome beacon]

Well you don't really know what constructor that generic type has

[cunning canopy]

does materials have an id in a number value or something?

[chrome beacon]

No

Not anymore

[cunning canopy]

why did they remove it?

[willow widget]

help, it's kinda urgent :CCC

[gleaming grove]

System.out.printLine( event.getMerchant());

check the class of your merchant

[rough drift]

(T) new Object()

[chrome beacon]

Because since 1.13 there are no number ids

[cunning canopy]

oh

[carmine nacelle]

I have an arraylist of strings. I remove the only item in it but the size is still 1?? https://i.gyazo.com/889ad558ef0ce95a02e1ee1ec04a433a.png how does that work

[chrome beacon]

okie dokie

[carmine nacelle]

https://paste.md-5.net/raw/kogedewujo

[chrome beacon]

use isEmpty

[carmine nacelle]

still no

[cunning canopy]

should I then make my own hash map for number ids?

[carmine nacelle]

this makes no sense ong

[willow widget]

org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_16_R3.inventory.CraftMerchant@5c ? xd

[golden turret]

do someone know how to use only these decimals on double?

[willow widget]

so it's an inventory? 🤔

how could I get the actual villager from the event?

[carmine nacelle]

I have 2 lists, one with the name and one with the uuid. Bee dies, it removes it from the list but somehow the list is not empty and the size is 1 even though they're both literally[]?? https://i.gyazo.com/0a79c390359a34ce1d3e1e147b3b0da8.png

💀

[opal juniper]

round it?

[chrome beacon]

No you should just not use them

[cunning canopy]

hmm

the thing is

im making my own file format

for saving builds

[opal juniper]

use the material name

[cunning canopy]

and I want to use numbers

for the blocks

[opal juniper]

idk - seems inefficient

[chrome beacon]

Map material name to an id in the file format

or you know use the existing nbt format that already does this

or schematic for that matter

[cunning canopy]

is it possible to get a material by its name?

[chrome beacon]

Yes

matchMaterial

[cunning canopy]

with a hashmap?

[willow widget]

anyone knows how to get the villager involved in a trading? 😦

[chrome beacon]

if you want

[cunning canopy]

how else?

[chrome beacon]

an array could work

[cunning canopy]

maybe a list with indexes

which would be more efficient?

array would maybe take less memory

but other then that?

[rain mason]

okay uhh it almost works

[chrome beacon]

Did you forget to get()

[visual tide]

did you call get on the future

[rain mason]

yeahh

[visual tide]

you set futr

not yipee

[rain mason]

oh

thanks

wouldnt have noticed

[visual tide]

also please
your variable names

[rain mason]

oh it's too late to change that

all my variable names are either weirdly shortened class names, something related to what im currently watching on youtube, just "lmao", "lol", "xddddd" etc

[chrome beacon]

You will regret that later

[loud haven]

I thought my variable names were terrible, but yikes that's worse

[visual tide]

since you are using intelliJ i would like to introduce you to: right click on the variable -> refactor -> rename

jetbrains ides have excellent refactoring tools 🙂

[rain mason]

i've been coding for years, got used to it very quickly

[willow widget]

if I have an inventory event how can I get the entity from there?

[visual tide]

its just gonna bite you in the bum when you have bigger projects or are working with others on a single project

[rain mason]

well, when I'm working with my friends I try to name them more normally

but I mostly just code alone because I hate when people go through my code

[echo basalt]

yeah it sounds like you're doing something very wrong

and then shamed of it so hard that you don't want other people to see

just code like any decent human being

[rain mason]

no it's mostly just trust issues

[echo basalt]

instead of naming it "yipee" and not knowing what it means 5 years later

[rain mason]

oh I'll probably move on a few months later tbh

[echo basalt]

it also makes it harder to build a public portfolio to apply for jobs

[old cloud]

If I have a class A and a Supplier s = A::new, why is Java going to load A even if I never get the value from the Supplier?

[echo basalt]

It won't

[old cloud]

It does

[echo basalt]

it only loads whenever you call get

[old cloud]

No, I get NoClassDefFoundError

[echo basalt]

I mean

if A doesn't exist

you're referencing A's existence when initializing the supplier

which loads static values and all

[old cloud]

The NoClassDefFoundError is caused by some import of something that is imported in A

[echo basalt]

🤔

[tender robin]

is 1.13+ API the same as the newest so if I code my plugin 1.13 it will work on any version above 1.13?

[echo basalt]

Only way to actually fix it, is by initializing the class that inits the supplier of A, only when you can be sure that A actually exists

[echo basalt]

bukkit is generally forwards-compatible

and backwards-compatible

it's weird

[old cloud]

I mean A always exists but some classes that A imports might not exist.

[visual tide]

usually yes but there might be rare circumstances in which stuff breaks

[tender robin]

how would I know

test it on every version above 1.13?

[visual tide]

trying it 🙂

[tender robin]

lmao

[visual tide]

if it works on both 1.13 and latest its gonna be fine

[tender robin]

ok ty

[old cloud]

If I do it via reflection it works

[echo basalt]

Then A can't load during regular circumstances

thing with reflection is that you're not doing import statements directly

which doesn't try to init the class's static methods and all

Any reference to any class initializes its static methods

[old cloud]

But why does importing a class initializing its static stuff

Even if I wrap that function in another class and just supply that it will throw NoClassDefFoundError

And A doesnt even have any static stuff

makes no sense

[noble lantern]

Me who has a class called "WalmartRaytracer" in my project

[echo basalt]

I mean

that's fine

[gray merlin]

If I serialize an Inventory object into JSON, will it have all of the tags existent in all the items, or is it not possible to serialize an Inventory?

[rain mason]

yaay

[river oracle]

Just serialize the contents

You can't serialize an inventory object itself

[rain mason]

yeah, this is how I did it java List<Map<String, Object>> items = new ArrayList<>(); int i = 0; for (ItemStack it : p.getInventory().getContents()) { if (it != null) { Map<String, Object> ser = it.serialize(); ser.put("slot", i); items.add(ser); } i++; } config.set("items", items);

[river zealot]

how do I know at which stage a crop block is being broken?

[river oracle]

Crops extend ageable cast the block data to ageable and run Ageable#getAge

[gray merlin]

I see, I have to serialize each item individually. Thanks.

[river zealot]

Thanks

[fervent marsh]

Heyo, not sure if this is allowed as it's not stated in the rules. I would like to commission a super simple plugin to make it so that users can right click a horse with a stick and have it spit out their statistics in their chat.

If anyone is interested, send me a PM. I imagine this is pretty easy to accomplish! For a vanilla server, just to enhance horse breeding

You should check for instanceof before casting here anyways.

I need to check if it's a crop?

[mint mesa]

I got that jefflib thing @last temple but it doesnt have armorequipevent

whats the latest version of it? for me it says 3.3.0

[lost matrix]

You need to check if its Ageable. Before casting anything you need to check if the object you are casting is actually an instance of your cast target.

[gray merlin]

I found a method that returns that to me. It's Entity#getVehicle, thank you for the logic, though! I take it in high regard.

[river zealot]

Ok, it's broken for a crop as well

[lost matrix]

First fix your casts, then recompile and check again for problems.

smh

[carmine nacelle]

apparently theres an item in my array thats a blank string..so the size is 1

There shouldnt be any spaces

this is my method for setting it

    public List<String> getBeeNames(PersistentDataContainer container) {
        List<String> beeNames = new ArrayList<>();
        NamespacedKey hiveStoredBeeNamesKey = new NamespacedKey(cadiaBees, "hive-stored-bee-names");

[dry forum]

if i was making an abstraction class and i need to store smthn like a location for example and the class works like: Class cl = new Class(loc); if i stored it in a private variable wouldnt it get overriden by the next time the class is called? then i dont see how to store data

[lost matrix]

Why do you return a new ArrayList there? Just return beeNames either way.

[carmine nacelle]

I mean I guess

it would be null tho

[lost matrix]

Why would it be overwritten? Every instance has its own fields...

[lost matrix]

It would never be null

    public List<String> getBeeNames(PersistentDataContainer container) {
        List<String> beeNames = new ArrayList<>();
        NamespacedKey hiveStoredBeeNamesKey = new NamespacedKey(cadiaBees, "hive-stored-bee-names");

        if(container.has(hiveStoredBeeNamesKey, PersistentDataType.STRING)) {
            String[] storedBeeNames = container.get(hiveStoredBeeNamesKey, PersistentDataType.STRING).split(",");

            for (String storedBeeName : storedBeeNames) {
                beeNames.add(cadiaBees.colorUtil.color(storedBeeName));
            }
        }

        return beeNames;
    }

Here are some links to get you started on learning Java:

• https://programmingbydoing.com/
• https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/index.html

The last one is the only official one, however some of those concepts assume that you already know a bit about programming.

[carmine nacelle]

still not the issue

[dry forum]

i know java...

[brave sparrow]

No you don’t

Lol

[dry forum]

unfortunatly i do

[lost matrix]

Then why are you asking a very basic java question?

[brave sparrow]

[lost matrix]

Like really basic

[dry forum]

i havent found any answer only

*online

[brave sparrow]

If you knew Java that wouldn’t be a question of yours

[dry forum]

well it is

[brave sparrow]

Hence, you don’t know Java

[dry forum]

i do though thats the thing

[brave sparrow]

You know some Java

[lost matrix]

static = class variable
non static = instance variable

[dry forum]

i started java 1 1/4 years ago which id say is decent

[brave sparrow]

That’s irrelevant to the topic at hand

It doesn’t matter when you started using something

[dry forum]

well you are saying i dont know java

[brave sparrow]

If you don’t understand key principles, you don’t know the language

[dry forum]

ive been using java for those 1 1/4 years

[lost matrix]

Is this answer sufficient?

[dry forum]

yes thank you

[brave sparrow]

You’ve been using a language you don’t fully understand

thats truly unfortunate isnt it

[lost matrix]

Share your whole code pls

We cant make any sense of those bits and pieces

[brave sparrow]

It’s why you should make an effort to follow those resources and actually learn it

[carmine nacelle]

theres like 20+ classes

git

[gray merlin]

Do item and itemStack exist here?

[lost matrix]

Item is an entity representing a dropped ItemStack

[gray merlin]

If so, is Item one that is one-of-a-kind, and ItemStack the representation of Item that can exist in the world?

[gray merlin]

So... Item is the entity dropped, and ItemStack is... the one-of-a-kind item?

The logical implementation of item

[lost matrix]

Both are one-of-a-kind in their own scope...

[glossy scroll]

the actual implementation of ItemStack in Bukkit is a little bit gray because its meddled in a lot of things

an ItemStack represents a Material, a Count, and NBT associated with that item

[carmine nacelle]

  List<String> beeNames = cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.getBeeNames(container);
                List<String> beeUUIDs = cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.getBeeUUIDS(container);

                if(beeUUIDs.contains(bee.getUniqueId().toString())) {
                    Player hiveOwner = Bukkit.getPlayer(cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.getHiveOwner(container));
                    if (hiveOwner != null & hiveOwner.isOnline()) {
                        hiveOwner.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "One of your bees from the hive " + ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.getHiveName(container)) + ChatColor.RED + " has died!");
                        hiveOwner.playSound(hiveOwner.getLocation(), Sound.ENTITY_BEE_DEATH, 1.0f, 1.0f);
                    }

                    beeNames.removeIf(beeName -> beeName.equalsIgnoreCase(bee.getCustomName()));
                    beeUUIDs.removeIf(beeUUID -> beeUUID.equalsIgnoreCase(bee.getUniqueId().toString()));

                    cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.setBeeNames(container, beeNames);
                    cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.setBeeUUIDs(container, beeUUIDs);

        List<String> beeUUIDs = cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.getBeeUUIDS(container);
        List<String> beeNames = cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.getBeeNames(container);

        if(beeUUIDs.get(0).equalsIgnoreCase("") || beeNames.get(0).equalsIgnoreCase("")) return;

Ok so if I check if the first item is "" it works but if I check if the array size is empty or size = 0 it doesnt return

[gray merlin]

Ah okay, so it's kind of the same as in forge

[glossy scroll]

what is getBeeUUIDS

show us that

[gray merlin]

and Item I assume is like the placeholder that serves for itemstack to clone off it and have it be used in the normal items?

[carmine nacelle]

    public List<String> getBeeUUIDS(PersistentDataContainer container) {
        List<String> beeUUIDs = new ArrayList<>();
        NamespacedKey hiveStoredBeeUUIDsKey = new NamespacedKey(cadiaBees, "hive-stored-bee-uuids");

        //Get stored bee names from metadata, separated by !*!
        if(container.has(hiveStoredBeeUUIDsKey, PersistentDataType.STRING)) {
            String[] storedBeeUUIDs = container.get(hiveStoredBeeUUIDsKey, PersistentDataType.STRING).split(",");

            for (String storedBeeUUID : storedBeeUUIDs) {
                beeUUIDs.add(storedBeeUUID);
            }

            return beeUUIDs;
        }

        return new ArrayList<>();
    }

    public void setBeeUUIDs(PersistentDataContainer container, List<String> beeUUIDs) {
        NamespacedKey hiveBeeUUIDsKey = new NamespacedKey(cadiaBees, "hive-stored-bee-uuids");
        container.set(hiveBeeUUIDsKey, PersistentDataType.STRING, String.join(",", beeUUIDs));
    }

[lost matrix]

First of all

hiveOwner != null & hiveOwner.isOnline()

->

hiveOwner != null && hiveOwner.isOnline()

You dont want to use a bitwise AND for boolean logic

[carmine nacelle]

?

[gray merlin]

Nevermind actually, I'll just assume it's the same as in forge and go on. If there's any issues i'll come back.

[carmine nacelle]

why not

[glossy scroll]

& vs &&

theyre different

[carmine nacelle]

that part works fine

[mint mesa]

@last temple would iot be something along the lines of

    public void onClick(InventoryClickEvent e) {
        Player player = (Player) e.getView().getPlayer();
        if (!(player.getInventory().getHelmet().equals(DragonHead.head))) {
            player.removePotionEffect(PotionEffectType.FAST_DIGGING);
        } else {
            player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.FAST_DIGGING, 999999, 2));
            player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.DAMAGE_RESISTANCE, 9999999, 3);
            
        }
    }```

[glossy scroll]

I would also store UUIDs as an array of longs

(LONG_ARRAY)

[mint mesa]

wdym?

[carmine nacelle]

they can have dashes though

[glossy scroll]

huh?

a UUID is two longs

[lost matrix]

Use a Set<UUID> instead of a List<String> and then use remove instead of removeIf

[mint mesa]

delay what a few ticks

the click event?

[carmine nacelle]

Where at?

[lost matrix]

The check of the slot. The click event is fired before the item is moved. So you need to check one tick later.

[carmine nacelle]

Before I was using remove and it wasnt actually removing from the list for some reason

[mint mesa]

ahh

[lost matrix]

This should have alerted you that something is wrong

[river zealot]

Any easy way to double the amount of items dropped from a block break event?

[mint mesa]

yep

[lost matrix]

Yes. BlockDropItemEvent

[mint mesa]

how do I get thge clicked slot?

[lost matrix]

Are you using the right names? CustomName for both adding and removing?

[mint mesa]

the*

[carmine nacelle]

Yes

                List<String> beeNames = cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.getBeeNames(container);
                List<String> beeUUIDs = cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.getBeeUUIDS(container);

                if(beeUUIDs.contains(bee.getUniqueId().toString())) {
                    Player hiveOwner = Bukkit.getPlayer(cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.getHiveOwner(container));
                    if (hiveOwner != null & hiveOwner.isOnline()) {
                        hiveOwner.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "One of your bees from the hive " + ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', cadiaBees.hivePDCManager.getHiveName(container)) + ChatColor.RED + " has died!");
                        hiveOwner.playSound(hiveOwner.getLocation(), Sound.ENTITY_BEE_DEATH, 1.0f, 1.0f);
                    }

                    beeNames.remove(bee.getCustomName());
                    beeUUIDs.remove(bee.getUniqueId().toString());

                    Bukkit.broadcastMessage(beeNames.toString());
                    Bukkit.broadcastMessage(beeUUIDs.toString());

It removes the uuid but not the name

https://i.gyazo.com/dc6cc41db0182ca6a065e183ee60caf4.png

[lost matrix]

Then the name is not in the list.

[carmine nacelle]

it is tho

hahaha hilarious.

a small piece of a badass plugin is still in the works.

[gray merlin]

I have a serialized inventory in JSON (So, just all of the contents of the inventory in a map), and I was making the deserialization method.
I came across this issue though: I can't create a new instance of Inventory and put items into it, can I?

[lost matrix]

You need to let Bukkit create a new Inventory by calling
Bukkit.createInventory(...)

[ancient plank]

[gray merlin]

Thank you, I would've never guessed.

[gray merlin]

This might come off as condescending, but I don't mean it that way, I would actually never had guessed or at the very least have taken hours to do so.

So, thank you!

[mint mesa]

if(e.getClickedInventory() == player.getInventory() && e.getSlotType() == InventoryType.SlotType.ARMOR)

hopefully this works

[gleaming grove]

how could I read all files from selected directory from resources?

[lost matrix]

Usually throwing a few keywords at the javadocs tells you what to do.

?jd-s

[undone axle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot

[gray merlin]

I wasn't using the javadocs 😅

I was using... this https://helpch.at/docs/1.7.10/

But i'll switch to the javadocs if I can find the 1.7.10 version of it

[lost matrix]

Ah yes. Brand new software from half a decade ago

[gray merlin]

👌

[gleaming grove]

I;ve seen that method but It only returns one file

[gray merlin]

It's been so long since 1.7.10... It's honestly scary.

[lost matrix]

Its not super straight forward. You need to traverse the jar file.

[mint mesa]

I can have multiple eventhandlers in one file right?

I keep forgetting

or I've never actually tried it

[lost matrix]

Yes every EventHandler method is being registered on its own

[hybrid spoke]

get the folder and loop over the files

[gray merlin]

Honestly the only time I haven't shared my code in order to improve it was when I was under an NDA, lol.

[carmine nacelle]

ok great

[lost matrix]

"from resources"

[mint mesa]

so one simple event file

B)

[gleaming grove]

but how to get folder from resources?

[carmine nacelle]

Its happened before. Many times.

[mint mesa]

oh also guys. one more question

can I set keep inventory to true for 1 person?

[hybrid spoke]

still. get the stream, fetch the resource names, loop.

@lost matrix files in question are gui/HiveGUI and HiveGUIListeners

Look at the copyResourceDirectory(JarFile, String, File) method. It lets you copy a whole directory from inside a JarFile.

[carmine nacelle]

try now

[lost matrix]

works

[carmine nacelle]

👍

[lost matrix]

Print out the File and see if its the location you are expecting

Are you trying to load the image from inside your plugin?

owner can be null

That is not a File

[gray merlin]

Yep, I realised it was an unnecessary question and deleted it, apologies.

[carmine nacelle]

Currently testing:

• Kill a bee (listeners/BeeDamageListener)
• Open gui (gui/HiveGUI and gui/HiveGUIListeners)

[gray merlin]

Does the inventory slot count start at 1 here, too?

[carmine nacelle]

0

[gray merlin]

Oh, that's nifty, thank you.

[lost matrix]

Sry but im not reading a gui that doesnt use the delegation pattern. All those nested ifs are really obfuscating the code and im too tired for this rn.

idk just save the image into your plugin folder and load it from there

[carmine nacelle]

what does that even mean

[ivory sleet]

Generally speaking, huge functions are impolite to the reader

Because you need to read the entire function to understand what it does

Having small functions that call more detailed functions allows the user to exit early

Which is polite

[carmine nacelle]

wasnt originally meant for other people to go through, i know what it all does so i didnt care

[ivory sleet]

Well when you ask for help you basically imply others are gonna read it

[carmine nacelle]

would take hours to rename and change everything

[ivory sleet]

Probably not

[carmine nacelle]

the entire code shouldnt be needed for this tiny issue anyway

[ivory sleet]

Readability issues have bigger impact on productivity than what you may think

[carmine nacelle]

the issue is somehow it thinks the array has a value when it doesnt

[ancient plank]

I'm ngl reading code on mobile rlly is not easy

[hybrid spoke]

just care for your code from the beginning on

[carmine nacelle]

it makes perfect sense to me anyway

so i dont get how it could be "simpified" anyway

[hybrid spoke]

looks like it dont otherwise you wouldnt be here

[carmine nacelle]

lmao

[ancient plank]

Solution: just code 4head

[lost matrix]

Could you paste where you add, use and remove elements from the pdc pls?

[gleaming grove]

consider to optimalize that

[carmine nacelle]

how

[ancient plank]

Optimalize

[carmine nacelle]

https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/jebinuzigu.php

k so here im checking the entity name

and removing it from the list

but it doesnt remove it with remove, but it does with a removeIf which makes 0 sense.

[lost matrix]

Btw. Why are you using pdcs like that? Just store everything in your CustomHive when the chunk loads and
write the CustomHive inside the BeeHive when the Chunk unloads.
Create a CustomHivePersistentDataType. This way you only have a single point of failure.

[carmine nacelle]

it was originally all in the customhive then i split it out cause i thought it would be more simple using pdc and i was learning it so it seemd more fun

proving to be aids.

im trying to store as much as possible in the pdc

[lost matrix]

Well pdc is really nice if you treat it as a persistent storage medium and not like a memory one.

[carmine nacelle]

isnt that the same thing

[lost matrix]

...

[arctic moth]

back again, still have this weird hanging thing that not even thread dump works during

anyone have and idea?

its during a world generation

[lost matrix]

[arctic moth]

its like a hang but with not much cpu/ram usage

[lost matrix]

If i could just remember the commands...

[lost matrix]

Is your disk full?

Like >95%

[carmine nacelle]

the only thing im storing in files is the location

[arctic moth]

nope

[carmine nacelle]

and in the object

[arctic moth]

ill send code

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

[carmine nacelle]

the rest is in the pdc.

[arctic moth]

the world creation is the standard WorldCreator setup with an amplified world

[lost matrix]

This makes no sense. You should choose one. You wouldnt store 20% in sql 20% in mongodb and 60% in a file too.

[arctic moth]

my guess is certain biomes arent compatible with amplified

oh cave biomes thats probably why

[carmine nacelle]

The only reason im storing in files is so i know where to load the holograms and stuff.

on server load.

[lost matrix]

List<Biome> biomes = Arrays.stream(Biome.values()).toList().subList(0, Biome.values().length - 1);

->

private final List<Biome> biomes = Arrays.asList(Biome.values());

[arctic moth]

k

sublist is just to get rid of biome.custom

[carmine nacelle]

Working with PDC has proven to be a pain in the ass.

[arctic moth]

:)

[carmine nacelle]

might just go back to the object and save/load with gson.

[lost matrix]

remove this line and check if it solves your problem

[arctic moth]

it was there before that

ill just comment it out ig for now

but wait how am i supposed to generate it then

the other things use it

[carmine nacelle]

so should i just do away with pdc then..

[arctic moth]

btw the "cwchunkmap" variable is a JSONObject

not map

i should probably rename that

[lost matrix]

The fk are you doing?

[arctic moth]

trying to make it so each chunk has a random biome

[arctic moth]

maybe getting a world instance while its generating is a bad idea

[lost matrix]

Then for now just do this:

public class CorruptedWorldBiomeProvider extends BiomeProvider {
    private final List<Biome> biomes = Arrays.asList(Biomes.values());

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public Biome getBiome(@NotNull WorldInfo worldInfo, int i, int i1, int i2) {
        return biomes.get(ThreadLocalRandom.current().nextInt(biomes.size()));
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public List<Biome> getBiomes(@NotNull WorldInfo worldInfo) {
        return biomes;
    }
}

And see if it works.

[lost matrix]

Yes

Thats why i told you to remove the line for now

[vast raven]

Is there a way to change the item you take in the EntityPickUpEvent

without touching the inventory

[carmine nacelle]

so...

[lost matrix]

If you want to react on loaded chunks you should listen to the ChunkLoadEvent and check if its a new Chunk.

[lost matrix]

Yes you can change the ItemStack of the picked up Item

[vast raven]

If you set the itemstack on the ground in the class of Item it doesn't work

[arctic moth]

i want it to generate with random biomes though

[lost matrix]

Show some code

[vast raven]

k

[lost matrix]

The code ive provided generates completely random biomes

[carmine nacelle]

@lost matrix

pls

i need guidance from the almighty.

[vast raven]

That's a basic example

[arctic moth]

it loaded, im gonna go join it rq to see if its the way i want it

[vast raven]

I even tried cancelling the event and cancel the cancellation with a delay of 2 ticks but still doesn't work, debugging I saw that the item actually changes, btw doesn't work .

[lost matrix]

This snippet looks like it should work...

[vast raven]

🥲

[vast raven]

What do you suggest me

[carmine nacelle]

ok im switching back to the object and gson only. fuck pdc

[lost matrix]

one moment

[vast raven]

Take care that I can't do it changing the item from the inv.

Since for my scope I need to change the actual itemstack you take from the ground.

[arctic moth]

nvm it says cannot create world with biome CUSTOM

@lost matrix

[lost matrix]

Then remove the biome

[arctic moth]

doing biomes.remove(Biome.CUSTOM) errors for some reason

thats why i had sublist

[vast raven]

That's the same code

[lost matrix]

in theory you dont need quaternions in minecraft because you have no roll.
This is quite difficult to explain in a simple, non-mathematical way.

[vast raven]

Maybe is the spigot version?

[echo basalt]

armorstand heads use euler angles

[lost matrix]

What version are you on?

[echo basalt]

so you have roll

[vast raven]

Won't you insult me?

[echo basalt]

I've been messing with it all night, even made a quick plugin

[lost matrix]

Well im glad it doesnt work then... sry

[vast raven]

sidajdioasjaiojdajsio

btw

1.12.2

[lost matrix]

Ah thats not too bad

[minor garnet]

wdyw?

[arctic moth]

got nullpointerexception smh

[vast raven]

First person who doesn't judge it

[quiet ice]

But anything below 1.13 is Bad either way

[vast raven]

🥲

[arctic moth]

oh saving stuff to file

[lost matrix]

Should work actually. Make sure the listener is registered. Do a clean setup so you can be sure that no other listener interferes.

[arctic moth]

forgor

[vast raven]

It is..

[quiet ice]

Bad as in anoyying that is

[vast raven]

I'mma actually import your code without any changes.

[glossy scroll]

really wish mob pathfinding goals wasnt so limiting

whatever tho

[lost matrix]

There is a fork that has an api for pathfinding. Otherwise: NMS

[glossy scroll]

well yea im using nms

[echo basalt]

paper has pathfinding

[glossy scroll]

i just generally dislike how its hard to specify goals for a limited amount of time

[echo basalt]

you can add, remove and set goals

[echo basalt]

but pathfinders weren't made to be dynamic like that

[arctic moth]

ok found a way for it to work thx

[ancient plank]

I regret making this

[glossy scroll]

why

[vast raven]

@lost matrix Bad news (as I expected).

Same code.

[minor garnet]

why do you dont use the api of cs ?

or wait 1 tick

[patent fox]

how can i set a skull's skin using a skull value?

[vast raven]

1. I already use them
2. There are no API for this event
3. It's the first item I dropped, don't care that is a weapon
4. Already tried 1 tick

[minor garnet]

debug it

[vast raven]

already done

the result is that the item changes as it shoulds

but only in the console, not in the pratic

[minor garnet]

why do you need this?

[vast raven]

It's a fingerprints plugin

I have all code I need, but this doesn't work, I would have cancelled and set the item manually using the sounds, but the animations when you take the item, can be made just from the original event

[patent fox]

?

[vast raven]

a sec

[eternal oxide]

skull value?

[vast raven]

public static ItemStack getHead(Player player) { ItemStack skull = new ItemStack(Material.PLAYER_HEAD); // Create a new ItemStack of the Player Head type. SkullMeta skullMeta = (SkullMeta) skull.getItemMeta(); // Get the created item's ItemMeta and cast it to SkullMeta so we can access the skull properties skullMeta.setOwningPlayer(Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(player.getUniqueId())); // Set the skull's owner so it will adapt the skin of the provided username (case sensitive). skull.setItemMeta(skullMeta); // Apply the modified meta to the initial created item ItemMeta itemMeta = skull.getItemMeta(); skull.setItemMeta(itemMeta); return skull; }

[patent fox]

no

[vast raven]

@patent fox

[patent fox]

not like that

[vast raven]

using the skull value?

[eternal oxide]

you want to read teh skin off an already existing skull?

[patent fox]

https://minecraft-heads.com/custom-heads/decoration/24992-balloon-red example

[vast raven]

uh

[patent fox]

its not a player

[vast raven]

NBTag

Use NBTApi

[hybrid spoke]

what tp is that

[odd thicket]

You can create a Player profile and set it to the skull using setOwningProfile

[vast raven]

tp?

[hybrid spoke]

as for the blocks

texture pack

[vast raven]

Mine

[glossy scroll]

    public static SkullMeta setProfile(final SkullMeta meta, GameProfile profile) throws ReflectiveOperationException {
        final Method profileMethod;
        profileMethod = meta.getClass().getDeclaredMethod("setProfile", GameProfile.class);
        profileMethod.setAccessible(true);
        profileMethod.invoke(meta, profile);

        return gameProfile;
    }```

[vast raven]

For the blocks I don't have any problems to send you it

[glossy scroll]

idk if com.mojang.authlib.GameProfile is considered nms

[eternal oxide]

Using PlayerProfile ```java
/**

[glossy scroll]

was that api in 1.12.2?

[eternal oxide]

1.18.2

[quaint mantle]

does minimessage have a relocation?

[vast raven]

Should I consider it as a bug of spigot?

[glossy scroll]

youre using 1.12.2

so no you should not

[vast raven]

Technically even if I can't get any help for legacy versions, it's a bug, right?

[glossy scroll]

i mean sure, bugs exist

so you will need to find a workaround

[vast raven]

Sometimes the "other ways" are limited

[vast raven]

There are at least 2 ways every time, but this time Idk what to do else

[glossy scroll]

part of the fun of signing up for legacy versions

[sterile token]

Any aproach?

[glossy scroll]

you should be skilled enough to find solutions to legacy bugs

[sterile token]

If you use legacy versions is under your own responsbility

[vast raven]

Maybe if I explain really quick the plugin, you might help me?

[glossy scroll]

nope!

[vast raven]

That's the point.

[glossy scroll]

im not knowledgable in 1.12

[vast raven]

😡

[sterile token]

Dont use 1.12

[glossy scroll]

so even if i tried to help

[vast raven]

Forget that now!

[sterile token]

Use 1.19

[glossy scroll]

i wouldnt be able to

[vast raven]

never

[vast raven]

never

[sterile token]

If you use legacy versions is your problem to solve the things

[glossy scroll]

at minimum 1.14 imo but i still likely wont help lol

[sterile token]

😂

Sorry for being rude but the truth

[vast raven]

Imagine you're talking with someone that has 1.19 spigot version

[glossy scroll]

don;t worry, the spigot forums were very popular around 1.12

[sterile token]

Legacy versions == Not being helped most of the time

[glossy scroll]

so your problem may be on there

[vast raven]

It's wrote even in the download section

But if you help me at least..

🥲

[glossy scroll]

?

[sterile token]

Okay, so why you are asking for help

[glossy scroll]

what is this

[sterile token]

I have more than 20 handlers

And i dont want to initialize by hand and call the method enable/disable

[vast raven]

Not asking for help to fix spigot bugs, just help to get another solution

[sterile token]

If you really want help move away from tha version

[vast raven]

I think I'll just quit helping and start solving the problem before I get tired

[glossy scroll]

could you create an interface with those methods in them?

[sterile token]

No, because each handler has diff things

[vast raven]

Imagine you're talking with someone that has 1.19 spigot version

[glossy scroll]

well isn't that the point of an interface?

just for the shared enable/disable methods?

[sterile token]

yes but if you use, you also have to initialize each manually

🤔

So is the same thing hahaha

[glossy scroll]

wdym

do all of their constructors have the same parameters?

[sterile token]

yes

[glossy scroll]

ok wonderful

so heres my solution

[sterile token]

Not abstract because i want to be optional the enable/disable hahah

[glossy scroll]

yes thats fair

dont worry about that

they all have "Prison" as a paramater

correct?

and they all return of type "Handler" (you should seriously consider renaming that)

[sterile token]

Wait wait

Each handler should contains enable/disable and also getters, setters and methods

[glossy scroll]

ok fair enough whatever

(what are these handlers?)

[sterile token]

So i dont want to do this with every handler:

void loadHandlers() {
    CoinsHandler coins = new CoinsHandler();
    coins.enable();
    UserHandler users = new UsersHandler();
    users.enable();   
}```

So that why im doing reflections

[echo basalt]

void registerHandler(Handler handler) {
  handler.enable();
  ...
}

[sterile token]

Also need to manually initialize each handler!

😂

[echo basalt]

registerHandler(new CoinsHandler());
registerHandler(new UsersHandler());

[sterile token]

Same thing hahaha

[glossy scroll]

oh

that is very reasonable though

[echo basalt]

you can then add the handler to a collection

and disable them in bulk

[sterile token]

Because now i have just 10 handlers but waht about for 100 handlers?

🤔

[glossy scroll]

public enum HandlerType {
    HANDLER_A(HandlerA::new),
    HANDLER_B(HandlerB::new);
    
    private final HandlerFactory factory;
    public HandlerType(HandlerFactory factory) {
        this.factory = factory;
    }

    Handler create(Prison prison) {
        return factory.create(prison);
    }

    private interface HandlerFactory {
        Handler create(Prison prison);
    }
}```

now you could call HandlerType.HANDLER_A.create(prison)

[sterile token]

But i dont want to get the handler obj

Because them i cannot call non handler interface methods

[echo basalt]

you're still registering them in the enum

[glossy scroll]

true

[sterile token]

Is more cleanner

Because i dont overload the main class

[glossy scroll]

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

here is a similar pattern

heavily inspired by nms EntityTypes

now I could call DungeonEntityType.IRON_BEE.create(level, dungeon) and that will give me an "IronBee"

but idk if your handlers are meant to be singleton-esque

[sterile token]

I mostly ue Di

[glossy scroll]

ok

well

i would just do something that Imllusion did

[sterile token]

But wait i cannot do the thing you are doing

[glossy scroll]

your reflective way of doing things is too sloppy imo

[sterile token]

because them i cannot call the getters/setters of the TestHandler

[sterile token]

loopy?

[glossy scroll]

yes you could?

    public T create(Level level, Dungeon dungeon) {
        return spawnFactory.create(entityType, level, this, dungeon);
    }```

this gives me the type of the mob i want

if you used this with your handler pattern you would get an object of type TestHandler

what does javadocs say

Interactable materials include those with functionality when they are interacted with by a player such as chests, furnaces, etc. Some blocks such as piston heads and stairs are considered interactable though may not perform any additional functionality. Note that the interactability of some materials may be dependant on their state as well. This method will return true if there is at least one state in which additional interact handling is performed for the material.

my guess is yes

[sterile token]

Is possible to generate getters via reflections?

[worldly ingot]

generate? No. You can generate code with an annotation processor though

Though that's done at compile-time

[glossy scroll]

chests, furnaces, etc

im assuming yes

[sterile token]

oh ** yeah i forget that tho

[glossy scroll]

etcetera

idk

thats what the jd says

you could always jsut.... test it out

its not a very complicated thing to do

[noble lantern]

[glossy scroll]

i mean you read the docs yourself

[gleaming grove]

someone know why splitting by . is not working?

[glossy scroll]

. is a regex pattern

you would need to do \.

[gleaming grove]

thx

[glossy scroll]

. means any character actually

why use var

[gleaming grove]

em.. i not much into regex, why the error apperas?

[gleaming grove]

its faster

[glossy scroll]

🙄 ok

[glossy scroll]

unsure actually

[gleaming grove]

StringUtils.split(file, "."); ok, this should works

[fossil lily]

Bukkit.getScheduler().scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(Bedwars.getInstance(), () -> {
                for (int i = 0; i < 600; i++) {
                    World world;
                    world = arena.getWorld();
                    int min = - arena.getBuildWidth();
                    int max = arena.getBuildWidth();
                    int xrandom = (int) (Math.random() * (max - min + 1) + min);
                    int zrandom = (int) (Math.random() * (max - min + 1) + min);
                    Block up = world.getHighestBlockAt(xrandom, zrandom);

                    Location loc = up.getLocation();
                    if (!up.getType().equals(Material.BED_BLOCK) && !up.getType().equals(Material.CHEST) && !up.getType().equals(Material.ENDER_CHEST)) {
                        world.playSound(loc, Sound.CHICKEN_EGG_POP, .5f, 2f);
                        loc.getBlock().setType(Material.AIR);
                    }
                }
            }, 600, 5);

Why is it prioritizing glass blocks? Wtf?

1.8.9

[sterile token]

Oh 1.8 🤢

Mostly here doesnt like legacy versions

[glossy scroll]

?1.8

[undone axle]

https://howoldisminecraft188.today/

[glass mauve]

lmao

it's like programming software for win7 👀

[atomic niche]

Speaking of super old versions, guessing it is no longer possible to make 9+ row GUIs now-a-days?
MC-108756 got patched a while ago; somehow only noticed just now

[glossy scroll]

windows 10 was released exactly 1 day after java 1.8.8 believe it or not

[glossy scroll]

yep, maximum is 54 slots

[atomic niche]

😦

[kind hatch]

You never could. At least without it looking janky af.

[glass mauve]

ik, but it still gets updates

1.8 not

[glossy scroll]

well yea i guess

[atomic niche]

^ If you were willing to live with it looking janky, you could have 100+ slots

[kind hatch]

There were bugs that allowed for slots to overflow, but those have been patched.

[atomic niche]

😦 giant ugly chest guis were surprisingly useful for things that didn't need much polish

anyways, at least its more consistent now

[quaint mantle]

how do i add something to a mask?

Mask mask = new BlockMask();```

[eternal oxide]

No one has any idea what your Mask is. Its not Spigot

[lost matrix]

Probably we

[eternal oxide]

Possibly

[gleaming grove]

Is Java engine caching strings? I'm currently adding the translations to my plugin so should I store translation's paths in some static field?

[echo basalt]

you have way too much hope

[ancient plank]

java engine

[compact haven]

🤣

well technically

yes they are "cached"

you are not wrong

they are held in the constant/string pool

[echo basalt]

until the garbage collector pulls up

[compact haven]

Nope, they stay in the constant pool in JVM bytecode

[echo basalt]

hm

if the string is static

perhap

[gleaming grove]

as far as I know strings are catched in a function range

[compact haven]

no Java does not cache for you

[echo basalt]

otherwise strings would be prone to memory leaks extremely easily

[gleaming grove]

like when you make 2 string with same value in a function they are assigned to one pointer

[compact haven]

let me clarify, strings that are referenced without being concatenated or anything

like a direct string in source code

similar to that translation path

"12" + v + "e" couldn't be stored in the constant pool

instead, "12" and "e" would be

[compact haven]

Yes, this is the string pool

because strings are immutable

but you can bypass that by directly calling new String("test")

but it's not really a pointer, nor is it only limited to the function invocation

[gleaming grove]

Lang.get("gui.base.insert.desc") well so everytime I will be calling this method new string will be created?

[compact haven]

No

you're fine to do that

[gleaming grove]

oke

[carmine nacelle]

what does itemstack#issimilar account for

[eternal oxide]

it should be everything apart from stack size

[vocal cloud]

Read the docs and find out™️

[carmine nacelle]

thx for a real answer

[vocal cloud]

🤡

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/inventory/ItemStack.html#isSimilar(org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack)

I bruised a finger finding it in the docs

[severe turret]

wat

[eternal oxide]

lol

[severe turret]

why so mad

if u don't know how to use a method

check it in javadocs

[eternal oxide]

Javadocs are your friend. I have them open in my browser 24/7

[severe turret]

that's literally why they exist

[carmine nacelle]

whos mad?

[severe turret]

you

[carmine nacelle]

no?

[vocal cloud]

Thanks for the real answer as if my answer wasn't good

[ancient plank]

hoes mad

[severe turret]

You could get an answer faster if u opened javadocs instead of asking here

ornns mad

[carmine nacelle]

I got an answer from the one dude in like 2 seconds

[vocal cloud]

Yeah but instead of typing it here you could have gotten it instantly from the docs

[carmine nacelle]

this discord is like early 2000s britney spears

toxic mfs

[vocal cloud]

Just annoyed at a question where the answer is free, online, and instantly accessible

[eternal oxide]

Leave Britney alone!

[ancient plank]

I liked early 2k britney

[vocal cloud]

Early 2k Britney would have used the docs 😤

[tender robin]

is it possible to take an arg from a command and use it in a listener?

[eternal oxide]

Commands are instant. Listeners are event triggered.

Store the data from the command somewhere, like in a map for the player or on the player

[tender robin]

Hashmap?

[eternal oxide]

ie, player issues command, store in a map against teh players uuid.
event happens and your listener fetches data for the relevant player from the map

it depends on what you need to store and why

[noble lantern]

[tender robin]

so the players gets a book after using the command and the books name is the args[1] = player message. but I want to use it in a PlayerInteractEvent

[strong parcel]

I am making a GUI, and I am on the part where I need to check if the inventory clicked is the GUI in order to cancel the click event, but for some reason e.getInventory().equals(gui) returns false. Does anybody know why the inventory in-game is considered unequal to gui? https://paste.md-5.net/jidarotovo.java

[eternal oxide]

then no need to store anything. You put teh info on teh book when you create it

[tender robin]

wdym?

[eternal oxide]

you store the data on the book in its name, so when you click the book, just get the name

[tender robin]

yes but

ItemStack permpaper = new ItemStack(Material.PAPER);
ItemMeta papermeta = permpaper.getItemMeta();
papermeta.setDisplayName("§7» §e" + args[1]);

[vocal cloud]

If it has coloring store it in the PDC so you can know it's your book

[tender robin]

"§7» §e" + args[1] that's the name

[carmine nacelle]

isnt PaperMeta its own thing

[vocal cloud]

[carmine nacelle]

or BookMeta

[eternal oxide]

so not a book

[vocal cloud]

Use the PDC and store whatever you want to use later in it to prevent anvil exploits.

[tender robin]

paper and book but this is from a book

[eternal oxide]

The simple way is to get teh papers name when its clicked and strip colors. The proper way would be store in its PDC.

?pdc

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-guide-to-1-14-persistentdataholder-api.371200/

[tender robin]

put Player p = (Player) e.getWhoClicked(); to the beginning and try

[crisp steeple]

bruh

[carmine nacelle]

why not just check the inventory title

[eternal oxide]

noooo
