I the case i need more than 70-80% of library i would shade the full library

[wet breach]

I would go with a module design since maven allows modules 🙂

and then you can make modules depend on each other if need be

[tall dragon]

yea that does indeed sound good

[sterile token]

Yeah maven is so great, than you can have modules inside of modules inside of parent project

[tall dragon]

alright. thanks for the insight guys

[sterile token]

Na dont worry mate

Epic once i finish the library i will send it to you

So you can have mor ideas

[tall dragon]

that would be great. thanks

[sterile token]

I added you to remember

[wet breach]

https://github.com/frostalf/servertutorial

see, I have this plugin setup as modules to separate the implementation from the api

this allows me to compile just the API and lets developers who want to only depend on the API a smaller jar as well

and then when I compile the actual implementation it compiles the api and implementation, then shades the api in 🙂

[tall dragon]

yea. makes perfect sense, thanks

[wet breach]

feel free to use it as reference if need be, it is open source after all

I even make use of a plugin in maven to update my plugin.yml version numbers automatically too 😛

so I am not always cluttering my commits with just updating that file XD

[tall dragon]

can't you just use a variable in ur plugin.yml?

[wet breach]

I have issues sometimes of maven not always picking it up

so I make use of a replacer plugin which comes in handy with other files

[tall dragon]

ah

should take a look at that 🙂

thanks

[wet breach]

also the nifty part of modules the way I have it

if you have a dependency that is needed by multiple modules

just specify the dependency in the parent module

all the modules below the parent will be able to pick it up even though you didn't specify it in their pom

Hi, I can't build Spigot 1.8.8 using BuildTools because https://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/versions/1.8.8/minecraft_server.1.8.8.jar returns 403. Any idea on what's happening?

[tall dragon]

whats even that download

?bt

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/buildtools/

[tall dragon]

download from here

[sacred mountain]

yessss

finally

[modern bridge]

It's used by BuildTools to compile Spigot. (BuildTools is giving me an error about that)

[sacred mountain]

arrow trajectory + estimations

basically aimbot

[compact crane]

Is there a way to query with a Java code who all has bought a plugin?

[drowsy helm]

not through spigot, no

[compact crane]

Is there any other way?

[drowsy helm]

some people use paypal verification

theres no easy way to do it though

[sterile token]

What?

i didnt understad what you were meaning

You want to verify who is using the plugin? Or want to generate then a code which allow using the plugin?

[echo basalt]

yikes my tutorial plugin is a lot more different to this one

[compact crane]

I want to know the list of my PremiumPlugin buyers

[echo basalt]

and there are a few objectives...

[wind blaze]

Does anyone know how to check if a mob was spawned naturally (not by plugin or command)

[noble lantern]

iirc theres an EntitySpawnEvent you can listen to for when an entity spawns

not sure about just grabbing a random mob in the world an checking tho, you can store a meta data key on the entity tho so that you know it was spawned by something or natural

[wind blaze]

That’s what I need tho :/

[noble lantern]

i edited the msg re-read 2nd one sry

idk if theyre a method for this now a days, but this is what we did many years ago

[wind blaze]

I’ll do it that way then ig, thanks a lot

[echo basalt]

paper has a org.bukkit.event.entity.CreatureSpawnEvent.SpawnReason getEntitySpawnReason();

[noble lantern]

iirc spigot has something similar

[misty current]

how can I check if a field's type is an array/list of an Object?

[ivory sleet]

depends

but usually not possible to check the type passed to the type paremeter

as it gets erased

[white dew]

Hii guys, this is not exactly a problem I'm having, but rather something I'm trying to understand. I'm learning Java as I learn minecraft programming

@Override
    public void onEnable() {
        // Plugin startup logic
        System.out.println("Starting my plugin!");
    }

what is the "@Override"

I mean, what does this "@" do?

what is Its name in Java?

[fluid river]

@ is for annotations

[worldly ingot]

They're called annotations, and Override in particular is more or less a compiler hint that lets your IDE know to give you a warning if there's no parent method that matches its signature

[fluid river]

@Override annotation says that method is from parent class and it is overriden

[worldly ingot]

public interface MyInterface {
    public void foo();
}

public class Example implements MyInterface {

    @Override
    public void foo() { } // This is fine

    @Override
    public void foo(String value) { } // This will give you an error

    @Override
    public void bar() { } // This will give you an error too

}```

[fluid river]

you can code without annotations tho

[white dew]

ooooooh

thank you guys, I thinking I'm understanding

[fluid river]

nobody gonna hurt you if you remove @Override

[worldly ingot]

I will hurt you

Use Override lol

[fluid river]

that's more like a comment

[white dew]

Haha

I see...

[fluid river]

for your level

[worldly ingot]

It's a compiler hint, not a comment. For beginners especially you should be using it

It's difference between figuring out why onEnable() vs onenable() will and won't work

[white dew]

ooooh, I think I got It now!!

[misty current]

right now i'm doing this

if(!ItemStack.class.isAssignableFrom(field.getType())) continue;

and i need to do something similar for lists and arrays

[quaint mantle]

?

do you want to do instanceof List

[white dew]

Why will "bar" give you a warning? Because the parent class doesn't have the method "bar"?

[worldly ingot]

Correct

[white dew]

oh, ok!

thank you

I really appreciate your help :)

[misty current]

yep basically, but it must be a list of ItemStacks

[worldly ingot]

Generic types are non-existent at runtime so you can't exactly check for them

You kind of just have to assume

[quaint mantle]

List<ItemStack> out = null;

if (obj instanceof List<?> list) {
    if (list.isEmpty()) {
        out = new ArrayList<>(0);
    }
    else if (list.get(0) instanceof ItemStack) {
        out = (ItemStack>) list;
    }
}
if (out == null) {
    throw new IllegalArgumentException("obj must be a List<ItemStack>");
}

code i made a while ago

close enough right

[worldly ingot]

That's probably one decent way of doing it, yeah

Gross, but doable lol

[quaint mantle]

lol

[misty current]

i don't have the actual object, I have the field tho

i guess i could read the field but that would slow down the code most likely

[worldly ingot]

You can get the object from the field

That's really your only way of going about it

[fluid river]

it will give error

and your code won't compile

[quaint mantle]

you shouldnt be doing reflection every millisecond anyways

[fluid river]

iirc

[worldly ingot]

This is happening every second!?

[white dew]

oh, ok

[fluid river]

at least in eclipse

[quaint mantle]

No im just saying

[misty current]

it is not

[quaint mantle]

if he has to worry about a small performance change in this case then its probably a design issue

[fluid river]

FREE JAVA LESSONS

checkmybio

[worldly ingot]

Just any compiler. Hence, "compiler hint" 😛

[misty current]

i am tryna intercept packets and modify ones that contain some specific itemstacks

[worldly ingot]

I'd strongly advise the use of ProtocolLib

That's its whole purpose is catching and monitoring packets

It's not a huge burden either. It's practically an auto-install on most servers

[misty current]

i don't really see what would the benefits be compared to using nms

[worldly ingot]

Multi-version compat (for the most part) and ease of use

[misty current]

i don't need multi version compatibility, i'm testing something for a private project of mine

and also i find nms easier to use when dealing with packets

i have used protocollib in the past but the experience was pretty bad, especially with more complex packets

even with wrappers, that were often not updated or wrong

[worldly ingot]

You're bending over backwards to get the generic type of a field, but I mean y'know, sure. Easier

[misty current]

i meant in general, i've always found protocol lib pretty painful to work with

also i don't think protocollib has a way to listen for any packet and check if the packet has an itemstack, itemstack array or itemstack list field

[white dew]

Guys, I have a question that is gonna sound silly, but here we go

when I create a project, where exactly the "main" method is?

I mean

every program in Java must have a "main" method, right?

[fluid river]

yes

you need to create first class

and place main method in it

[white dew]

hmmm, I see, but like

I only see one class in my project

and It doesnt have a "main"

[fluid river]

When you start .jar program, JVM basically goes to your main() method

[white dew]

but I can compile It

yeah, that makes sense

[fluid river]

if there is no main method

program won't run

[white dew]

yes, that makes sense

but still, I can compile my plugin even if I don't see a main method

[fluid river]

show your project structure

[white dew]

is it, running on the background or something?

oh

ok

[fluid river]

If you are coding spigot plugin

you don't need main method

[white dew]

oooh

yea

thats It

I'm using spigot

but why tho?

[fluid river]

Your plugins are loaded by Bukkit's class loader

Not starting as .jar

[white dew]

ooh

[fluid river]

Bukkit goes to your plugin .jar

looks for plugin.yml

in plugin yml should be your main class which extends JavaPlugin

and well Bukkit loads this class

runs it's onEnable() and there you go

[white dew]

ooooh, thats amazing

so Its like the program takes my changes and use it in the game files

like, I'm not exactly writing an executable program, but rather something to be used 🤔

[fluid river]

yes

[white dew]

oooooh

thats sooooo interesting

[fluid river]

the main program is your Spigot.jar

or Craftbukkit.jar

[white dew]

I see... :O

[fluid river]

or Paper.jar

it's loading classes and resources from your jar

and using as it wants to

[white dew]

I see

Its different when you are making minecraft mods, tho, right?

[fluid river]

idk never coded mods

[white dew]

ooh, ok ok

[worldly ingot]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/craftbukkit/browse/src/main/java/org/bukkit/craftbukkit/Main.java#21

[fluid river]

i guess they are working same way tho

[white dew]

oh :O

[fluid river]

your minecraft loads every jar from mods folder

.ymls and classes

[white dew]

I see

[fluid river]

and other stuff

[white dew]

thats great

[fluid river]

and here is the link to Craftbukkit's main() method

[white dew]

thanks

Hey, does anybody here program minecraft mods, as well? I want to know If It's similar to programming plugins or way harder

because I'm kind of interested in It as well :o

[worldly ingot]

Slightly more difficult because you have to understand sidedness

That and Minecraft's resource structure

Definitely doable, but Bukkit plugins are far more approachable than Forge or Fabric mods

[white dew]

ooooh, I see

I want to understand Minecraft's resource structure very badly, hehe, so that may be fun!!

I'll try to learn more about spigot and bukkit, going along with my java learning before I do that tho

[misty current]

also while working on spigot plugins you only work on the server, when modding you also work on the client

[worldly ingot]

You'll definitely want a stronger grasp of Java before approaching mods

[white dew]

but It will me amazing for me to learn how the game I love since a child works

[misty current]

a lot more options but more stuff to learn

[white dew]

ah, ok!

[white dew]

oh, ok

[worldly ingot]

If you have a strong understanding of language concepts then you should be fine for the most part, but you really want that foundation first

[white dew]

I see

[misty current]

even looking at nms is a fun way to understand how does a simplistic game like minecraft work and also how complex its structure is

but as choco said, you need to have a good knowledge of java

[white dew]

one of the problems I have as a beginner coder, is that I feel like I already now a lot about the very basic stuff, conditions, basic OOP, loops, data structures, etc. But if you asked me to make a GUI for something, I wouldn't know how to 😅 what do you think is necessary for me to learn so I can have sufficient knowledge in the foundations of java (or programming, in general)? Sorry, I'm kind of lost in my journey, right now

[white dew]

I see :o

[misty current]

this sounds more like a lack of knowlegde of spigot's api

you can easily find guides on that

anyways you can create an inventory and then open it to a player

then to make stuff clickable you need to listen for click events

one of the first things i'd learn if i were you is how to create commands and listeners

[white dew]

oooh, thanks, but I was referring to Java in general, not only spigot, like GUI interfaces for simple programs (not minecraft related). I was trying to show that I lack skills in java, even though I know the basics

[white dew]

ooooh, interesting

[white dew]

I see, that makes sense

I can actually create plugins, but sometimes I don't understand why something works, just that It works and I know how to do it 🤔

if that makes sense

[misty current]

oh

so swing and such you meany

[white dew]

XD ok ok

[misty current]

that's also pretty easy, bro code has a very well made java course covering that

[river oracle]

use javafx

not swing

[misty current]

do you mean you don't know what do the methods you call do in the backend?

[white dew]

Yes, exactly

[misty current]

reading nms classes can answer those questions

[echo basalt]

it has its downsides

[white dew]

oh, I see

[echo basalt]

like

once I learned how to mess with NMS

[white dew]

Interesting, thanks

[echo basalt]

life stopped being fun

[misty current]

i actually have even more fun now that i know how to mess with mc's code

[white dew]

thats so awesome

very cool

[echo basalt]

like

I haven't learned anything new for the past year or two

[white dew]

Just one more thing. How does a listener work? I mean, I know It makes so the game detects events and when they happen, the method in my program executes, but how does It know that event happened in the first place. Do the main minecraft program runs a while loop checking for every event, or something?

[echo basalt]

Uhh it's a bit specific

Each action calls an event

[misty current]

nms classes are modified to include event calls when a certain action happens

i'll send you an example gimme a sec

[echo basalt]

The event processing code just loops through all RegisteredListeners (listener wrapper that is made when you register listeners)

[misty current]

this is a piece of a method called when a player starts to mine a block

[white dew]

oooooh

how did you find that?

[echo basalt]

or skeleton horses :)

[misty current]

CraftEventFactory is an utils class to call some events more easily

[echo basalt]

^ That being said, not all events go through CraftEventFactory

[white dew]

I feel like I'm learning a lot with you guys, thank you

[misty current]

this code is inside PlayerInteractManager that holds most of the methods handling player interactions (mining, clicking and so on)

[white dew]

I see

[misty current]

yep, i should've specified some

[white dew]

are you guys usually here? I'm going to have a lot of trouble learning in this journey haha

[misty current]

after a while you just learn what class does what

[white dew]

so I will be grateful to have your help

I see

[echo basalt]

ServerGamePacketListenerImpl contains most of the packet listening and processing code

[misty current]

i chat here sometimes, yes

[white dew]

nice

[echo basalt]

I'm quite active here

[misty current]

depends if i'm in the phase where i code often

[white dew]

awesome

[misty current]

like rn

[echo basalt]

And I believe we're from the same country just seeing your bio

so timezones shouldn't be an issue

[white dew]

Really???

[misty current]

i alternate between gregtech modpacks and developing

[white dew]

ooooooooh

awesome

[white dew]

Haha, awesome

[echo basalt]

I alternate between having depressive episodes and coding

[white dew]

oooh, man, sorry to hear that :(

[echo basalt]

Is ok

part of life

[white dew]

I have depression as well. Not saying Its the same pain, of course, but I can understand how painful It is

I hope you get better

nobody deserves to be depressed

[echo basalt]

It doesn't bother me

[misty current]

here you can see an example where CraftEventFactory is not used to call the event

[echo basalt]

Well

technically it does but still

[misty current]

sorry to hear that

[echo basalt]

Life goes on

[white dew]

Do you guys have any book recomendations for java, or programming in general?

I really like to learn using books

[misty current]

CraftEventFactory is a pretty massive class

[echo basalt]

Uhh

I wouldn't say books are the best for teaching programming

neither are schools

[misty current]

i haven't read any tbf

[white dew]

ah, I see

[misty current]

i probably will when i get to uni in 2 years

i'll take CS

[white dew]

I'm reading a book about java right now and It's helping me a lot to understand the foundations

ooooh

[echo basalt]

because they teach you about the basic functionalities of the language rather than the code quality and oop principles themselves

[white dew]

I see

[white dew]

Awesome :)

[echo basalt]

I'm on my last year on my programming course

Didn't learn shit

[white dew]

what course are you taking?

college?

[echo basalt]

nop

[white dew]

or something else?

oh

[echo basalt]

high school / vocational type deal

[misty current]

i hope i'll learn something

school aint teaching me shit

[echo basalt]

well you'll learn css probably

and python

[misty current]

html too ig

and js

[echo basalt]

php

[misty current]

i havent coded much outside java

[white dew]

In my college class I started learning python

[echo basalt]

be prepared to have a 29:1 anime addict to girl ratio

[misty current]

and scratch when i was younger lol

[misty current]

never watched anime

[echo basalt]

I originally did C# bots for flash games when I was... like 6?

[echo basalt]

congratulations you're part of the group of like 3 people that will hate their classmates

apes together strong

[misty current]

lol

[echo basalt]

make sure you have either the shittiest thinkpad or a baller gamer laptop

[misty current]

right now i have a PC

[echo basalt]

yeah good luck

[misty current]

2 years is a long way to go still

[echo basalt]

just bought an LG Gram laptop

for school

tired of my crappy acer

[misty current]

not sure if i should be excited or not

[echo basalt]

doesn't even have 8 bit color

[misty current]

lol

[echo basalt]

should arrive thursday

[misty current]

for now i'll keep having fun breaking minecraft

at 2am

[echo basalt]

let's hope I won't regret not paying 500€ more for the 4k option over 2k

[white dew]

hahaha, amazing!!!

[misty current]

this reminds me so much of the banner exploit on hypixel skyblock

[white dew]

I hope I can become good like that, so I can mess around and have some fun too

[echo basalt]

I'll... keep making cursed code

like ditching craftblock

[misty current]

yeah about that

this is a mess

i'm still working on registering custom items

[echo basalt]

I'm still happy I managed to make a multithreaded floodfill algorithm to process abstract shapes

[misty current]

and i'm tryna edit all item packets to a valid item so the client doesn't commit suicide

[echo basalt]

shit has a mad compression ratio too

[worldly ingot]

Mans just said random words here

[misty current]

not sure what is that

[echo basalt]

managed to convert about 360k blocks into 10k objects

[misty current]

but i'll act like i understood

[echo basalt]

basically a way to store just the orange blocks efficiently

with a contains method

[worldly ingot]

You mean like a HashSet? ;p

[echo basalt]

well

that's not that memory efficient is it

[worldly ingot]

This is Java

[echo basalt]

360k objects

[worldly ingot]

You get all the memory you want

[echo basalt]

sure but like

[worldly ingot]

[echo basalt]

I managed to lower it to about 7k objects

and been thinking of a new algorithm to compress it to ~800-1000 objects

I also gotta read all the blocks and match the type

all I have is a single Location

[white dew]

So, another silly question 😅 but I have this simple event I'm handling, and I have a few doubts

@EventHandler
    public void onPlayerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent event) {
        Bukkit.broadcastMessage("Welcome, " + event.getPlayer().getName() + " to the server!! :)");
    }

First, what is the @EventHandler annotation for? Does It like, give me a warning if I try to implement a method that is not an event?

Is It like "@Override", but only for event methods?

[echo basalt]

@EventHandler is an annotation that indicates that the given method receives events

[white dew]

I see

[echo basalt]

The parsing algorithm just goes like

for(Method method : clazz.getMethodsAnnotatedBy(EventHandler.class)) {
  ...
}

type deal

[worldly ingot]

It's basically a way for Bukkit to identify a listener, that's all

Otherwise it would have to just assume that all methods are listeners

[echo basalt]

one tiny inconsistency that pisses me off

[worldly ingot]

Which may or may not be the case

[misty current]

override doesn't exist at runtime, it's there only for the developer to know the method overrides a method

[echo basalt]

and now that choco is here this is probably gonna be dealt with

[white dew]

ooooh

I see

[echo basalt]

is that on bukkit you can make eventhandlers private

because bukkit calls method.setAccessible(true)

[worldly ingot]

+1

[echo basalt]

but bungee doesn't

[worldly ingot]

It doesn't? lol

[misty current]

eventhandler is used instead to identify the method as a listener

[white dew]

nice, thanks

[echo basalt]

it throws a fuckin accessibility error

[worldly ingot]

Well that's mildly annoying. I'd assume that it would

I'd rather them be private >:((

[echo basalt]

I prefer to make stuff private by default

so like

it only takes 1 line of code

[white dew]

Another question I have, so that method called "broadcast", from the Bukkit class, what does It do? Does It send a message to every player on the server?

is that the same as making a for each loop containing every player and sending each one individually a message?

[misty current]

does the client know by itself what armor is it wearing or do you need to send it a packet to modify it? Right now i have a pickaxe on my head slot and it doesn't render there

oh nevermind 1.8 just doesn't render items on ur head

[echo basalt]

https://github.com/SpigotMC/BungeeCord/pull/3397

fuck it, github works nicely

no need to run buildtools

[white dew]

Ok, now last question, for real: Do you guys have any Java course I can follow? Udemy/youtube, doesnt matter, just looking for recomendations, hehe

[echo basalt]

Jetbrains academy works fine

[white dew]

oooh

I dont know this one

awesome

[fluid river]

me

also google Java coding roadmap

choose any random one

and go google each topic from the roadmap

[white dew]

that seems a good idea

thank you

[wet breach]

Didn't know you had one

[balmy valve]

Anyone know how you do custom colors in hover text in the text component?

Im using a legacy formatting

and I assume that I can't without changing, but I don't know how to change it

[worldly ingot]

Yeah, you need to use components for that

[balmy valve]

Im using text components but the HoverEvent accepts only a constructer with the Action and if its the HoverEvent.Action.SHOW_TEXT, then a new Text(String input)
said text input when given a custom color doesnt actually use it, shown in the photo

[worldly ingot]

You can't use legacy colour codes when using components. It's just bound for breakages

If you're making use of components, you'll need to use the ComponentBuilder to construct components more easily with colour

BaseComponent[] message = new ComponentBuilder()
    .append("Hello").color(ChatColor.GOLD) // net.md_5 package, not org.bukkit.ChatColor
    .append(" world").color(ChatColor.GRAY)
    .create(); // Can't remember if it's create() or build(). One of the two```

[balmy valve]

I saw that but if i do the HoverEvent and I use the constructer using the ComponentBuilder it tells me its deprecated

[worldly ingot]

Shouldn't be. Just have to wrap the builder with a Text instance

new Text(new ComponentBuilder()/* blah */.create())

[balmy valve]

ohhhhh I see

so does .color color all before it?

[worldly ingot]

It colours that component, yeah

Think of .append() like the start of a new component

Anything following it will affect that component. Any .append() calls after that will be a new child component, which inherits the format and events of its parent component. Unless you supply a FormatRetention to state otherwise

The example above for instance, if I hadn't specified the colour to use for "world", it would have inherited the gold colour because it's a child of the "Hello" component

[fluid river]

explain

why can't you do this in java

if ((int i = obj.getMyInt()) == 1) {}```

but can do this(pattern matching)

if (obj.getMyPlayer() instanceof Player player) {}

is there any language where first construction is available

[drowsy helm]

the second one is relatively new to be fair

but the top line only saves 1 line of code so its not a massive deal

[quaint mantle]

Hey Guys, Is there an event for player's minecraft nickname change?

[drowsy helm]

like their mojang name

or server nickname

[quaint mantle]

Mojang Name

Yeah

[drowsy helm]

no

[quaint mantle]

Hmm

[drowsy helm]

that woudl take a relog anyway

[fluid river]

yeah i know pattern matching is new

but since MC jumped from java 8 straight to java 16

not a big deal

[quaint mantle]

So When I save the data of player should I save with player displayname too?

[drowsy helm]

noo

uuid

[fluid river]

same does second one

[drowsy helm]

difference is second removes an uncessary cast

but yeah not a huge diff

[quaint mantle]

oh thanks

[fluid river]

like i see that you can do this:

int i;
if (i = obj.getMyInt() == 1) {}

why not just combine into 1 statement

like bruh

[drowsy helm]

well i guess the difference is you already have the variable as the given type

whereas the instanceof one you dont have it

but yeah java has heaps of things they should add

[fluid river]

you can cast it manually

in if statement

or if it's already same type just ignore

or just use var

[drowsy helm]

if (i = obj.getMyInt() == 1) {}```
doesn't look very 'java-ie' tbh

[fluid river]

var i

or int i = (int)...

i mean it's the only reason

why we have ==

just cuz we can assign value inside the if statement

[drowsy helm]

huh

wdym

[fluid river]

the only reason languages have ==

is because you can use = in if statement

where it's gonna assign value to the pre-declared variable

[drowsy helm]

not really

it can be used outside of if statements

for boolean algebra

[fluid river]

anyways

in statements

if not in if

then in boolean b = ...

[drowsy helm]

boolean a = number1 == number2;
vs
bolean a = number 1 = number2;

second just doesnt make sense

[fluid river]

yes

boolean a = (number1 = number2) == 2;```

both assigned and compared

in one line

so just as i said

the only reason languages need ==

[drowsy helm]

thats a completely different scenario

[fluid river]

is because = is also used in statements

[drowsy helm]

== is used as a comparator, not only because = couldve been used

[fluid river]

it's not could've been

it already took it's place

if language doesn't support = for assigning values IN A STATEMENT

language woudln't need ==

cuz well, = would be a comparator

[drowsy helm]

that just isnt true lol

[fluid river]

let's discuss then lol

[drowsy helm]

this example disproves that

[fluid river]

😉

[drowsy helm]

how would you do this

boolean a = number1 == number2;

in a language that doesnt have comparators

its a statement

[fluid river]

if language didn't support assignment in a statement

you could've used second thing

[drowsy helm]

how else woudl you do assignment then?

[fluid river]

cuz boolean b = is assignment part

not a statement, just a line of code

[drowsy helm]

it's an assignment statement

[fluid river]

it's declaration + initialization, which takes statement in it

[drowsy helm]

wait lets clear one thing

what do you mean by statement

[fluid river]

i mean

[drowsy helm]

because by java's official definition thats an assignment statement

[fluid river]

boolean b = statement

if (statement)

[drowsy helm]

so the expression

[fluid river]

oh

my bad

[drowsy helm]

yeah i get where you're coming from now

we just had differing definitions

you are correct

[fluid river]

my english kills me second time

[drowsy helm]

But I think syntactically speaking that would go against java’s conventions

[fluid river]

pattern matching doesnt

[drowsy helm]

Never seen a language that uses = for both

[fluid river]

or like

inner classes

Head head = new Human().new Head();

[fluid river]

basically cuz every language supports assignment inside the expression

even c

[drowsy helm]

Couldnt you just do new Human.Head()

[fluid river]

no

you can also do

Human h = new Human();
Head head = h.new Head();

😉

syntax weirdness

what about

() ->

i1 ->

(i1, i2) ->

is (i1) -> even possible

[drowsy helm]

Yeah

For a consumer

hey guys, How to set NPC's skin? I found the class NPC So I tried to spawn it like ```java
org.bukkit.entity.NPC npc = (org.bukkit.entity.NPC) player.getWorld().spawnEntity(player.getLocation(), EntityType.VILLAGER);

[lilac dagger]

@quaint mantle you can't cast a villager to a NPC

[quaint mantle]

Oh

[lilac dagger]

you'll need to use the api of citizens @quaint mantle

or cast it to Villager instead

[quaint mantle]

Hmm

[lilac dagger]

if that's what you wanna achieve

[quaint mantle]

How do I fix this problem?

Hi I want to code a quest plugin. But I don't know exactly how to implement an architecture. Can anyone share their thoughts on this subject?

[frail gale]

What do you mean by architechture?

[hoary sierra]

I need help
so im trying to make it so that pvp damage is increased by 15% but it isnt really working, im making it display damage in the console and regardless if i have the plugin or not its still the same. Can someone please help me?
the damage output logger works but not the damage multiplier

i tested it on a zombie and i lost 1.5 hearts per hit with and without the plugin

the damage it outputed was 2.785

[tall dragon]

if this is just for pvp. you might wanna switch to EntityDamageByEntityEvent and just use this https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/entity/EntityDamageEvent.html#setDamage(double)

[hoary sierra]

aight

[hoary sierra]

but do u have any idea why it doesnt work?

[shadow gate]

Tell me how to make the plugin check with the player when entering the game whether a certain mod for the game is installed

[chrome beacon]

You will need to listen to the information packets that the client sends

wiki vg should have the Forge format documented. Not sure how fabric sends the data

You should be aware that this can be easily spoofed

[obtuse lake]

Hey, I'm trying to setup my Eclipse to make my first plugin, but I'm having trouble adding spigot to my libraries, I'm doing it the same as tutorials I've seen but for some reason the library is like, empty or something? It's really weird and I don't know what to do next

[vocal cloud]

Most people use intellij so you'll need to wait till someone who knows eclipse comes online

[obtuse lake]

I mean I can probably switch to Intellij too if that speeds things along, I just want to start learning really, not too invested in what IDE I'm using to do that

[eternal night]

Depends on the build system you use. Does your tutorial use maven or gradle ?

[obtuse lake]

It hasn't covered that, so I assume Eclipse handles it itself?

[eternal night]

you might want to look for a different tutorial then o.O

a build system like maven or gradle is a pretty essential part of developing a plugin

you'll either have a pom.xml or a build.gradle.kts file

[eternal oxide]

what tutorial are you using?

[obtuse lake]

This one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRzR4OIoVks&t=308s

I see it's 2 years old, probably out of date

[eternal oxide]

Not good

https://bukkit.fandom.com/wiki/Plugin_Tutorial_(Eclipse)

[river oracle]

Oh god reading 📚

[remote swallow]

i wonder what its like for the people that dont use minecraft development making a project

[eternal oxide]

Easy

[sick ermine]

I mean Uml diagram

[obtuse lake]

I'll have a look at that tutorial, thanks!

[sick ermine]

I cant prepare the uml diagram of the project

[obtuse lake]

Ah this is very handy, I'll bookmark it because I always forget things like this 😅

[sick ermine]

@eternal oxide Do you have an idea

[chrome beacon]

@sick ermine

Ah nvm

So you just want to know where to put your code so it's structured neatly?

Or do you actually want to draw an UML Diagram

[sick ermine]

I'm having trouble thinking of code structure

[sick ermine]

exactly this

[serene sigil]

how do u detect the new location of the dragon egg if u left click it and it teleports?

[tardy delta]

hmm when i delete the world files for the overworld, does that world still have the same uuid as before?

[eternal night]

The region files you mean ?

[tardy delta]

the files within those folders

looks like the newly generated world gets a new uuid when i delete those files

[misty current]

how can I decompile modify and recompile a jar file using intellij?

[tardy delta]

wondering what i should do then when some player has a home in a world that doesnt exist anymore

[eternal night]

The world uuid lives in uid.dat

Iirc

[serene sigil]

?

[misty current]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/block/BlockFromToEvent.html

[eternal night]

A BlockFromToEvent should be called

yea

[serene sigil]

oh tysm

[frail gale]

Make one global variable for quests and store each custom quest objech there

then you can control them

[serene sigil]

getBlock is the from block?

[heady spruce]

hey! i want to teleport 2 players to different locations without teleporting to them same location. im kinda stupid rn so yea xd

[tall dragon]

so what is the problem with that

[sick ermine]

When the server is enabled, it will create quest instances from the file. But that's not the point. It looks like I need the Requirement class, I couldn't decide how to implement it.

[heady spruce]

oh, i see i didnt explain it,
basically i have a list that contains some locations, and i want to teleport 2 to the locations, problem is sometimes it happens that both of the players get teleported to the same location.

[tardy delta]

check if its the same and if so pick the next one?

[tall dragon]

when you loop through the players to teleport simply add the chosen location to a list

then on the next iteration check if its in the list

if it is. its already picked

[quaint mantle]

IntelliJ is probably the best for spigot/bukkit plugins

[eternal oxide]

personal choice

[ornate mantle]

if I have a private organisation repository on GitHub and I want a way for people to make push requests how would I do it without making new branches?

oh I forgot you can make clones of private repositories

[rough drift]

objective choice

I used both

IntelliJ is superior if you have the specs

otherwise eclipse

(You can improve Eclipse autocompletion manually if that's your prob)

[eternal oxide]

I disagree. I've used both. I prefer Eclipse, unless it's a multi dev project

[obtuse lake]

Got Eclipse to work, but it says I made a legacy plugin, will try Intellij to see if that works better

[wet breach]

biased much?

Netbeans is probably on par with it 😉

[rough drift]

just set api-version in the plugin.yml

[rough drift]

Used netbeans a bit as well

My ranking is

IntelliJ
Eclipse
Notepad

Netbeans

Mostly due to tab completion

otherwise eclipse is just better

[obtuse lake]

Oh I did have like 3 warnings yeah and that was one of them

[wet breach]

netbeans has tab completion

even customizable too

[rough drift]

like good tab completion

[wet breach]

and extendable

[eternal oxide]

Mine is Eclipse, Netbeans, Intelij

[wet breach]

it is good

[eternal oxide]

For Java anyway

[wet breach]

Well all those IDE's are primarily for java anyways

[obtuse lake]

Hmm how would I do this actually

[eternal oxide]

I was going off Eclipse for it's poor implementation of multi project support, but that was improved a while back

api-version: 1.19

[obtuse lake]

Ah alright

[eternal oxide]

or whatever minimum version you want to support, back as far as 1.13

[rough drift]

just put 1.17

[obtuse lake]

Yeah that fixed it

[sterile token]

I dont think so

In my opinion i think that using 3rd party sites for selling is really limiting

Because you cannot obfuscate, implement your own metrics tracking, neither buyers, etc

I mean its like Spigot is okay in terms of simplicity but if expect more it would be best to use your own site and apis

[quaint mantle]

@trail basin dont know if it is possible

[trail basin]

Is there any way to send a click packet before canceling an open gui packet?

I'll just paste it here, doesn't seem possible but maybe I understand it wrong

[quaint mantle]

Like preventing a gui from closing?

[sterile token]

I dont understand exactly what he need

if not i would try to help

[trail basin]

I think I'm misunderstanding it

[sterile token]

Livid why do you want to do that?

[trail basin]

I was wondering if you could change items in chest without having gui open

[glossy venture]

just use the tile entity lol

[serene sigil]

why does this not work?

it should point the compass to that location

[glossy venture]

you dont need to use a gui to edit the contents of a chest

[sterile token]

WHY!!!!

[serene sigil]

wdym?

[sterile token]

just do it in-line 😡

[glossy venture]

no lol

[serene sigil]

lol

[glossy venture]

this visualizes it better

[sterile token]

haha that thing cause me anxiatiy

[serene sigil]

exactly

[trail basin]

Well any gui but I wanted to start with chest

[quaint mantle]

ehh

It is good for the visuals

[serene sigil]

i know what u mean but....

[hybrid spoke]

?notworking

[undone axle]

"Does not working" is a useless statement. Please describe what exactly is not working, what you expect it to do, and what actually happens. If you get any console errors, also ?paste the entire stacktrace.

[sterile token]

Okay im the weird bro which dont like using lot of lines of code

[serene sigil]

@hybrid spoke

[hybrid spoke]

thats just one of the things requested

[sterile token]

Imaginate i use streams for not doing ifs, for loops, etc over collections

[serene sigil]

wdym?

[sterile token]

I dont imagine myself coding without Streams

[obtuse lake]

Lines don’t matter as much as character count ;)

[hybrid spoke]

Please describe what exactly is not working, what you expect it to do, and what actually happens.

[serene sigil]

it doesnt point to the location that i set... and it should point there

the crafting and everything else works tho

[hybrid spoke]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#setCompassTarget(org.bukkit.Location)

[serene sigil]

well it should set the target not to every single compass...

just that one

thats why i used lodestonemeta

[quaint mantle]

ahh

[serene sigil]

?

[quaint mantle]

Now I see what you nee

d

[tardy delta]

streams impl goes brr

ok this is hacky

[hybrid spoke]

anyone ever had the problem that files could not be dragged into intellij anymore?

[tardy delta]

is that a thing?

:o

[hybrid spoke]

yeah

for example images

cant even drag & drop in my test jfx project

[serene sigil]

so can u help me?

[sterile token]

No

Atleast ultimate allow it

[hybrid spoke]

also works on my laptop

just not on my pc

[sterile token]

weird

Have u tried restarting the program?

[hybrid spoke]

yes

even my computer

still not

[serene sigil]

can any 1 plz help??

[sterile token]

ok

I dont think u will want to reinstall it but that is the only option i can see now

[hybrid spoke]

also have a drag&drop view in one of my projects and if i start it with intellij, i cant drop anything in there xD

switched now to EAP and installing the update

maybe that fixes it

if not i will continue in text editor

[sterile token]

how i reload Maven service?

[hybrid spoke]

what exactly do you mean?

[tardy delta]

lookin horrible

[sterile token]

I need to reload it cuz it not finding/resolving any remote dependency when the repos and everything are setup correctly

[hybrid spoke]

mvn clean install -U

[sterile token]

if (conditon) return;

[tardy delta]

lol

believe i have some corruptions on the database

[sterile token]

isnt smth like has nexus restart but for maven?

Any idea why mongo shity logger is ignoring me?

Its like he doesnt care im stoping the info and warning loggings

[tardy delta]

fun thing about me working on a db is that it breaks every time i change smth

[sterile token]

Haha i having some issues with haha, but with mongo for some reason it not even adding anything into db

[tardy delta]

should learn mongo too

[sterile token]

ik that i need to learn more about mongo

[tardy delta]

i dont have much relation based stuff so might be useful

[sterile token]

Hmn could be spigot task not working correctly on 1.19?

Because the async task im running thru PlayerJoinEvent is not executed cuz nothing is inserted into db

[faint tide]

Hi, am I stupid?
I am trying to add a cooldown to an event, which works fine but not when I try to format the cooldown.
I use System.currentTimeMillis().

to set the Cooldown I have a hashmap public HashMap<UUID, Long> cooldown = new HashMap<UUID, Long>();
In the hashmap I add the cd period: this.cooldown.put(player.getUniqueId(), System.currentTimeMillis() + 86400000);

So far so good, then I want to display the time left on the cooldown. which i do by:

            SimpleDateFormat style = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");
            Date date = new Date(remainingTime);
            player.sendMessage(style.format(date) + " remaining"); ```
This does work, except it doesn't display the correct time.... 68.400.000 should be a day, but when I run the command it outputs: `00:59:59`. this should be `23:59:59` right?
Am I missing something?

if the jvm crashes i dont think your plugin can do much about that

[runic minnow]

CapeEsle is my plugin

[sterile token]

JVM!!

[runic minnow]

now, how can i fix this

[sterile token]

That a problem with the JVM which have crashed

[tardy delta]

any idea what code would be causing this?

[runic minnow]

How are you so sure

[tardy delta]

if this is the first time you have this just ignore it

[runic minnow]

I think it is from jvm, but the name of the thread where my plugin is running is written so I doubted it

[runic minnow]

yep first time

[sterile token]

What does your plugin do?

Does your plugin run smth asychonisly thru bukkit main thread?

[runic minnow]

yes, async has to work as my plugin is linked to discord

[sterile token]

Can u send your code?

I thinking you are running something async thru bukkit main thread

[runic minnow]

if so, wouldn't the spigot fail?

[runic minnow]

that is lots of code

i'm not sure which code is giving an error

[sterile token]

How are u using the bot

Do you know how to use github?

[tardy delta]

whats that supposed to mean 🤔

[eternal night]

Probably just "are you blocking main thread with expensive operations"

[runic minnow]

sure but i can't give all code

[runic minnow]

whats mean

[tardy delta]

imagine crashing the jvm thro heavy operations

only thing i achieved with computing large things on mainthread was all threads throwing an outofmem

[runic minnow]

jvm is so cute and so delicate

[vocal cloud]

JVM is actually pretty durable. Try C

[tardy delta]

sounds like someone who has no gf

[runic minnow]

yeah so durable'

[vocal cloud]

Yeah well if you write code so bad it crashes it then that says more about you than java

[runic minnow]

I wish you knew the reason for the collapse, u would talk like that

[tardy delta]

me doing hacky stuff again, lets just implement a proper deleteHome method ig

[grim ice]

Man

[vocal cloud]

That's a very hilarious error. Are they running it with a bunch of experimental args or something

[grim ice]

@vocal cloud got an idea of how to obfuscate forge mods

[vocal cloud]

Yes, don't.

[runic minnow]

No, the server is constantly happening with +100 people.

[vocal cloud]

So it's an issue on your end?

[runic minnow]

the server is getting this error first time

[eternal night]

looks more like a jvm bug

[runic minnow]

I don't know if the problem is in jvm or my plugin

[vocal cloud]

Cause that's an issue with java itself. So either you're doing something you shouldn't or they are using a weird version of java

[runic minnow]

i wanted for the java version of the server i'm waiting

thx for helping

[vocal cloud]

Are they using openjdk?

[runic minnow]

idk i asked

[snow sluice]

tyty

[vocal cloud]

Lol I just realized that the paste has the args and it's a kilometer of junk. Try running the server using the exact args they have. They also appear to be using java 17 oracle so as long as you have that try that too.

[wet breach]

any particular reason you are giving it 18G?

[vocal cloud]

This is from their client

[crimson vault]

Is there actually a plugin that simplifies the coding of inventories? For example, that you design an inventory in the game and then it is covendiert to Java code and it is then in a txt of the code to see? I hope I have explained this in a reasonably understandable way.. :9

[wet breach]

also any particular reason you have told it to not sharememory via command line?

[wet breach]

the client doesn't default 18G

[vocal cloud]

Client as in person he's working for

[wet breach]

ok well the question still stands then

I recommend removing all the extra arguments as they are doing more harm then good

re-organize them to be proper

reduce the ram to about 10GB and no more then that unless you have a specific reason for assigning more

[runic minnow]

yes i didn't realize i was surprised to see xd

18G so strange

[runic minnow]

u can code

[vocal cloud]

Try copy pasting their args with native oracle jdk

[crimson vault]

so there is none yet?

[runic minnow]

i will tell him

[wet breach]

the problem is that GC is trying to collect from both sides of the heap but both sides of the heap are blocking the GC

[runic minnow]

I guess

[crimson vault]

sad

but thanks

[wet breach]

which is not a surprise given the arguments used on the command line

this is what happens when you mis-configure the GC arguments 😛

and why you need a profiler to know how some of those should be tuned

So what happened, is eden space filled up, but so did the survivor space

gc started on eden, but then it needed to take care of survivor and so forth until the JVM decided it must be locked and was like welp lets kill this

[runic minnow]

he using java17

[wet breach]

not sure why that would matter

That is my synopsis of what happened without digging further into the binary stuff

the easy fix is to replace the arguments with the appropriate ones from aikar's flags

and set the memory to no more then 10G 🙂

[vocal cloud]

Oracle java 17. It says everything on the log. The arguments are what's causing the issues as frosty is saying

Also if you're causing this issue your plugin might be using too much memory

[wet breach]

that is also possible to, but I mean with the current arguments it really wouldn't take much for that to happen

generating some chunks would have set it off eventually lmao

eden space is where new objects and stuff go, survivor space is where the new objects that haven't died off go

[runic minnow]

I have many clients and this is the first time I have met this error.

[wet breach]

generate enough new surviving objects and it would cause that to happen with the current configuration

[vocal cloud]

My point is that the only reason your plugin crashes it is because you reached that memory threshold. Either your plugin uses more memory than is reasonable or you got unlucky and your plugin pushed the unstable server over the edge

[wet breach]

basically this ^

[vocal cloud]

Either you make your plugin more memory efficient or they fix their args

[wet breach]

I think both should be done 😄

[vocal cloud]

Indeed

My client is saying 'when setup your plugin after night server got the crash and server's latency was increasing by 200 300 ms from time to time.

[vocal cloud]

Again, either your code is garbage or the args are causing instability

[runic minnow]

thank u so much

have a nice day

[vocal cloud]

Mhm. Tell them to fix the args

[runic minnow]

i told

[hard girder]

hmm ?

[wet breach]

?maven

Isn't git integrated into eclipse like intellij?

[wet breach]

I don't know, I do recall there being a git plugin for eclipse of sorts

[vocal cloud]

Another reason to not use eclipse I suppose

[wet breach]

have no idea if they have finally integrated it or still require that. In either case eclipse has their own custom thing with git and maven lol

[naive bolt]

how do i get a block from block name like grass_block

[vocal cloud]

Using the material?

[naive bolt]

ty

[vocal cloud]

You can parse a material using a string unless that's changed

[eternal oxide]

Git and Maven are a part of Eclipse

just select File -> import

[vocal cloud]

That's what I thought

[wet breach]

import

[vocal cloud]

In port. You need to plug in your git cable

[wet breach]

lmao

[hard girder]

Yep but i'm new so :/

[wet breach]

start reading

and learning

also this I guess too

?learnjava

[undone axle]

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

• https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-java
• https://www.sololearn.com/learning/1068
• https://www.learnjavaonline.org/
• 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.

[wet breach]

these should help with some java learning while you are at it

[vocal cloud]

Important to learn about the ide you use. Too many people mess up their intellij config and complain about it later

[hard girder]

not to java, to spigot and theses kind of stuff x')

[wet breach]

I use Netbeans

does everything I need it to and never fails 🙂

at least not yet

[hard girder]

I prefer VS but its doesnt support java, so i went to eclipse

[wet breach]

it does support java

[vocal cloud]

VS supports almost every language on the planet

Or rather VSC

VS is awful bloated garbage

[wet breach]

I have visual studio pro 2019 and 2015 😄

[vocal cloud]

Why

[wet breach]

because it is the best in terms of compiling natives and creating natives as well

also I gain access to the MSI package stuff

[vocal cloud]

I hate having to use it when I need to

[wet breach]

MSI is super awesome and one of the best compression utilities if you know how to use it, Microsoft ironically doesn't know how

you can if properly tweaked compress 1GB down to like 200mb sometimes lmao

[hard girder]

VS doesnt support the import with pom.xml, like eclipse until now x')

[wet breach]

just install the plugins for it

that is all there is to it

[vocal cloud]

VS or VSCode

[wet breach]

VS is basically VSCode but like with way more options and utilities then you would ever need out of the box

VS on its own if you install everything, takes up like 100GB

[hard girder]

VS

[vocal cloud]

Ugh

[wet breach]

they probably didn't install everything 🙂

[hard girder]

huh x')
there is only 2 things i didnt download on vs

[dire salmon]

when im checking for a custom armor piece using getHelmet(), do i use .equals() or what?

[grim ice]

my dad just farted and the room sells radioactive help

https://github.com/vimasig/Bozar

Anyone there to analyze this?

is it safe?

[vocal cloud]

A user with 4 repos and 98 stars on it with a proton mail. Idk

[misty current]

what do you need to check for?

if an itemstack equals another?

[dire salmon]

ye

kinda

if(player.getInventory().getHelmet().getItemMeta() == Crown.getItemMeta()){
                runningTasks.put(player, new TrailsTask(8, 0.5, 1));
                }```

[hasty prawn]

isSimilar

[dire salmon]

ok

do i need to get meta?

[hasty prawn]

No, isSimilar will check the meta for you

[dire salmon]

ok

so player.getInventory().getHelmet().isSimilar(Crown)

[hasty prawn]

mhm

[dire salmon]

ok thx

[warped gulch]

Hello.

[dire salmon]

what does this mean?
src/main/me/lucasgithuber/kingdoms/listeners/TrailsTask.java:[36,57] double cannot be dereferenced

Location particleLoc = player.getEyeHeight().add(x, y, z);

[eternal oxide]

getEyeLocation() not EyeHeight()

[dire salmon]

ok

it worked thanks

[sterile token]

LMao

Im back

My electricity went down

[sterile token]

When you have that type of doughts you can use the javadocs. That why they are for

For checking what classes, methods, fields, parameters, etc has a class

[dire salmon]

ok
