[vast raven]

PlayerChatTabCompleteEvent in 1.16.5?

[abstract rampart]

Or a runTaskLater every time they pop a totem. Then it only runs once

[glad prawn]

Yes?

[vast raven]

It's deprecated

[round finch]

yeah resting task i like that idea

[vast raven]

Any such similiar event?

[abstract rampart]

No, client doesn't listen to the server for tab completion unless there's a /

[charred blaze]

what is it called when you launch minecraft server in editor itself and test the plugin

[round finch]

Debug?

[tardy delta]

hot reload?

[charred blaze]

hot reload?

what

why

[abstract rampart]

Like individual plugins? https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/pluginmanager.69061/

But it breaks a lot of stuff

[round finch]

you can reload after exporting plugin

[charred blaze]

i think its intelij plugin or something idk

[round finch]

but some probably yell at me for this one

[tardy delta]

looking so bloat lmao 🙄

[round finch]

Mango is that DataBase stuff?

[tardy delta]

is there even a reason to use an uuid representation instead of the standard stuff?

yes

[glossy venture]

fucking filter

[round finch]

fuck

isn't filter me

[glossy venture]

mf

is filtered

i guese

[raw prairie]

hey, uh the send player message thing is sending multiple times

how could I stop that?

only send it one time

[tardy delta]

brr

[abstract rampart]

#help-development message

[raw prairie]

I did

    @EventHandler
    public void onEntityDamage(EntityPotionEffectEvent e){
        if(e.getCause().equals(EntityPotionEffectEvent.Cause.TOTEM)){
            Player player = (Player) e.getEntity();
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "[CrystalBall] " + ChatColor.GREEN + "Your shield is down! Wait 10 seconds for it to replenish!");
            Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskLater(plugin, () -> {
                player.getInventory().setItemInOffHand(new ItemStack(Material.TOTEM_OF_UNDYING));
            }, 200);
        }
    }``` @abstract rampart

oh wait

me dumb

[glossy venture]

fuck groovy

my eyes are burnt because the mf warnings

if you cant implement type checking correctly dont implement it fucking stupid IDE

[raw prairie]

@abstract rampart doesn't work

[abstract rampart]

Also EntityResurrectEvent

[raw prairie]

?

[abstract rampart]

Basically totem use event

[raw prairie]

so

[raw prairie]

how would I check for a totem pop?

[abstract rampart]

bro with the pings ;-;

[raw prairie]

Im sorry

but how

[glossy venture]

lets go code generation

its horrible

but it works

[glossy venture]

holy shit this is fun

[abstract rampart]

If EntityResurrectEvent is fired, it's a totem use. I would add a print statement before your runnable declaration. If you get that print statement, the problem is in your runnable. If you don't, the problem is in the event

[round finch]

damm didn't know

[abstract rampart]

They chose a terrible name

[round finch]

my bad

[round finch]

probably why didn't think of it

should have done google search smh

[zenith spire]

hey there, what is the difference from normal advancements to recipe advancements?
I need to only register normal advancements and get completely spamed of the others.

[fluid river]

advancementdoneevent

getAdvancement()

getType()

might be some of those 3

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/player/PlayerRecipeDiscoverEvent.html

or this one

basically cancel the event or smth

[tardy delta]

heeheehee

[fluid river]

why

you already made it accessible

also are you fan of no-multicatch

[zenith spire]

there's no .gettype unfortunately

[fluid river]

this one

disgusting advancement system

[tardy delta]

also people doing ::isAnnotationPresent and then ::getAnnotation

[fluid river]

answer my 2 questions

above

also >> hehe nested ifs fan

[tardy delta]

what questions

[fluid river]

why

[tardy delta]

not my code

[fluid river]

oh

[tardy delta]

just looking at plugins that use mongodb now lmao

[fluid river]

cock pilot

[tardy delta]

dang

[sterile token]

🤢

Lmao what that code

[fluid river]

highly obfuscated

[sterile token]

No lmao

That is the definition of not knowing how to code

[fluid river]

hey uuid fans

is it possible to have uuid

[tardy delta]

who tagged me

[fluid river]

00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000

or

[sterile token]

No

[fluid river]

FFFFFFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFF

[sterile token]

Its imposible because how uuid are generate

[smoky widget]

How can I change the texture of a placed skull ? i tried with skullmeta but it's not working

[fluid river]

how

if that's just a hex representation

you can definitely have all F's

cuz just a number

[sterile token]

?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]

Hex are not only numbers

[kind hatch]

I don't see why this wouldn't be possible.

[sterile token]

Hex is a mix of numbers and chars

[kind hatch]

Not sure if it would cause any issues though.

[fluid river]

char F represents 15

so

FFFFFF... is possible

i guess

[tardy delta]

UUID.fromString("FFFFFFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFF"); works

[fluid river]

what about all zeros

8 zeros-4 zeros-4 zeros-4 zeros-12 zeros

[tardy delta]

all zeros with the same pattern works too

[fluid river]

ez

[smoky widget]

I have this error :

class org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_16_R3.block.impl.CraftSkullPlayer cannot be cast to class org.bukkit.inventory.meta.SkullMeta (org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_16_R3.block.impl.CraftSkullPlayer and org.bukkit.inventory.meta.SkullMeta are in unnamed module of loader 'app')

and my code is

 public static void blockheadBuilder(String texture, Block b){

        if(b.getType().equals(Material.PLAYER_HEAD)){
            Skull skull = (Skull) b.getState();
            SkullMeta skmeta = (SkullMeta) skull.getBlockData();
            GameProfile profile = new GameProfile(UUID.randomUUID(), null);

            profile.getProperties().put("textures", new Property("textures", texture));

            try {

            }

            skull.setBlockData((BlockData) skmeta);
        }

    }

[tardy delta]

got mongodb to work lol

[fluid river]

you are casting blockdata to skullmeta

but skullmeta is itemmeta

[smoky widget]

But for a block you have to use what because I have looked at the forums and I can't find anything that works

[fluid river]

skullmeta is for itemstack anyways

you'd better create own skull itemstack

and work around it

[smoky widget]

I have already created a function that allows me to create custom head itemstack I based on that except that it is not possible to setblock with

[hybrid spoke]

org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_16_R3.block
org.bukkit.inventory

[fluid river]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/block/Skull.html

good luck

[smoky widget]

Yes I know that except that if I put setowner I could not put texture no?

[hybrid spoke]

it will get the texture of the owning player

[fluid river]

my friend put texture of pipe on my skin

so i only have pipe head and no body

😉

[hybrid spoke]

and no life

[fluid river]

and well, he used this texture in his pipes plugin

[hazy parrot]

doesn't have to be lol

[fluid river]

we already discovered it

all zeros and all f's work

[hazy parrot]

fuck discord scroll

[flint coyote]

Now make a random generator and see how long it takes to actually get that UUID

[hybrid spoke]

L

[smoky widget]

I think i should use setownerprofile except that it is not available in 1.16 :/

[fluid river]

no

[hybrid spoke]

is this even possible?

bet not

[fluid river]

make random uuid generator?

10 lines

[hybrid spoke]

no to get this uuid

[fluid river]

UUID.fromString()

[flint coyote]

UUID.randomUUID()

[fluid river]

oh

i see

you want to loop until you get this uuid

from random

[tardy delta]

probably takes a few days

[hybrid spoke]

but my question is not the how, but the if

[flint coyote]

I mean there's only 2^122 possible UUIDs. Will surely get it in a minute or 2 /s

[hybrid spoke]

since UUID is made out of the current timestamp with some extras

[fluid river]

few years i guess

also random can give you same uuid twice

[flint coyote]

"few" years

[fluid river]

so...

[hybrid spoke]

not really

just if you would generate ~2B a sec

[fluid river]

i will just

[hybrid spoke]

then you could have a collision

[fluid river]

import java.util.UUID;

public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis());
        UUID myFUUID = UUID.fromString("FFFFFFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFF");
        UUID id = UUID.randomUUID();
        while(!id.equals(myFUUID)) {
            id = UUID.randomUUID();
        }
        System.out.println(System.currentTimeMillis());
    }

}```

[hazy parrot]

undefined variable 🤪

[fluid river]

done

[tall dragon]

now add some threading

[tardy delta]

i would probaby use TimeUnit.YEARS

[fluid river]

i don't remember

[tall dragon]

its java.util

[fluid river]

done

[hazy parrot]

use do while 💢

[fluid river]

why

[vocal cloud]

Just use a db system with an increment

[fluid river]

just build a supercomputer

and write on c

[flint coyote]

nanoTime() will overflow until you have a result

[fluid river]

😭

currentTimeMillis

still

i guess i'd better switch to string mafs

[flint coyote]

nah millis should be fine

[tardy delta]

jit will optimize so hard

[flint coyote]

Long.MAX_VALUE leads to Sun Aug 17 08:12:55 CET 292278994 as a date. So you still got 292.276.972 years left for your result

[tardy delta]

😏

[hybrid spoke]

im at around >> 11189327 generations and still didnt found one with nearly the same letters

[wary topaz]

Quick question, can I add commands to config.yml? (Initalize) And not plugin.yml?

[fluid river]

time to run

[tardy delta]

you can inject them in the commandmap if they werent defined in plugin.yml on start

reflections time

[flint coyote]

now overengineer it and compare every character by itself and show how close you have been to your goal with each generated one (e.g. how many Fs you got or even better: Add up how far you have been on each. E is off 1 D is off 2 etc.)

[hybrid spoke]

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        boolean diff = true;
        UUID same = null;

        long index = 0;

        while(diff) {

            same = UUID.randomUUID();
            System.out.println(same + " >> " + index++);

            diff = hasDifferentLetters(same);
        }

        System.out.println("Found one: " + same + " >> " + index);
    }

    private static boolean hasDifferentLetters(UUID uuid) {

        char[] chars = uuid.toString().toCharArray();

        char first = chars[0];
        for (char c : chars)
            if (c != first)
                return true;

        return false;
    }

[fluid river]

println slows program down

[tardy delta]

comparing longs would be faster

println slow asf

[flint coyote]

nah make a diff function that returns an int and calculate the diff characterwise

[flint coyote]

true. Just make it print the closest result every min or so

to increase speed of this sheed

[quaint mantle]

Hey guys Can I add tab list group like this?

ik but who cares

[sterile token]

What are u trying to do?

[fluid river]

it still runs sadly

[sterile token]

For sever help please use #help-server

[quaint mantle]

ok

[flint coyote]

for something like that it really matters. You will easily have times 10 of your runtime by printing every result.
Ik this is all a joke so it doesn't really matter but usually it would

[hybrid spoke]

i know, but for this it doesnt.

code performance is literally my specification

[fluid river]

i'm tired

closed my uuid cringe

[sterile token]

I would do that

Im still finishing it

I have been working on it 4 months right now

😂

[tardy delta]

2 million instances per second?

[sterile token]

fourten

is pojo working for u?

[vocal cloud]

Mongo Pojo?

[tardy delta]

yes but i hate that you need everything mutable cuz its too stupid

i probably wont use it

[sterile token]

Just use document

is easier and works perfect

[tardy delta]

ye

thinking about a new plugin where ill implement it

hmm how does this work?

ah need to synchronize it

synchronizing it takes 500k less instances per second kek

[hybrid spoke]

thats also the reason why println is slowing down the program

[sterile token]

why volatile?

[hybrid spoke]

so that all threads have the same state of the variable

[tardy delta]

thread t might have it in its own register, which is not reflected with the main state

so volatile keeps count in the main memory

[hybrid spoke]

not directly

count will always be in the main memory

but each processor has its own cache

volatile tells them to not cache this variable and keep the updates to the main memory

[tardy delta]

ye that

im explaining it weird but ik how it works

[flint coyote]

public static void run() {
        UUID bestResult = UUID.fromString("00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000");
        UUID fullFUUID = UUID.fromString("FFFFFFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFF");
        UUID uuid;
        do {
            uuid = UUID.randomUUID();
            if (uuid.compareTo(bestResult) > 0) {
                bestResult = uuid;
                System.out.println("Best result: " + uuid);
            }
        } while (!uuid.equals(fullFUUID));
    }```
Time to wait

[flint coyote]

Wanted to document the error for eternity and then decided not to

[sterile token]

?

[flint coyote]

Someone posted a compile error and then deleted the message

[round finch]

yes

[echo basalt]

you could... make it multithreaded 🤔

just for faster efficiency

[round finch]

it was actually naming xD

literally same method

[tardy delta]

wondering if theres a max amount of Threads in java

[round finch]

in everyway

[echo basalt]

uhh

the fork commons pool is just CPU Thread Count - 1

[flint coyote]

Should also buy the newest CPU while I'm at it 🤔

[echo basalt]

software optimization is cheaper

[tardy delta]

and how many threads would a cpu have 🤔

[echo basalt]

grab a threadripper

[mighty pier]

wtf!!!

[smoky anchor]

Hello ppl!
Is there any non-NMS and non-manual way of getting item burn duration and item cook time ?

[echo basalt]

I'll start cursing like a 14 year old if you ask once more

[echo basalt]

haha no

afair

[round finch]

learn java moment

[tardy delta]

also where is stringbuilder

[round finch]

XD

[smoky anchor]

thought so

[flint coyote]

You are using generics that get erased for the JVM so you basically have public String arenasToString(List arenas) twice

[tardy delta]

in rust every generic type gets it own 'class' or smth iirc

wtf is wrong with mongo that they cant just use T

[round finch]

so many problems here

[tardy delta]

just having that method gives me headaches

dont tell me youre throwing that shit into a db

last time i saw someone throwing json into a db

[round finch]

saw a json in a yaml

[tardy delta]

yaml is basically json lol

[echo basalt]

I wonder if it's possible to display an abstract polygon shape by making a fancy png 🤔

like a top-down bit where the R value represents the amount of blocks in the Y axis

G would be like how many interrupted blocks we'd have

idfk

just some extreme compression algorithm

[mellow edge]

20 ticks is one second?

[sterile token]

Yes

[wet breach]

I am not sure what exactly you are suggesting o.O

[echo basalt]

uhh

basically minecraft is a voxel game yeah

and we can consider each block a voxel

How would we go about compressing an abstract (random-ish shape) in an extremely efficient way

Right now I'm using something I call "line regions" where each X-Y point has a set of palleted lines in the Z axis

[wet breach]

Well, MC already uses compression, as well as re-arranges how coords are stored

[echo basalt]

Yeah but I only need a very specific area

like just the glass here

[wet breach]

but if you want to store something more efficiently, you would start with Y, since it is typically the smallest in most cases

and then x,z

[smoky anchor]

This seems to manipulate inventories.
I see no way of this returning the time an item should burn for.

[echo basalt]

I basically want to represent the area in as little ram as possible

While still having up to an O(N) contains check

Line regions are good and all

But storing it to a file still gives me like 20k entries

for the bigger regions

[wet breach]

toss item into slot, get the cook time.

it should return how long it will take to cook

[echo basalt]

I was also thinking on how an algorithm that just represented the entire region in as few cuboids as possible would go

[wet breach]

this is a non-issue when it comes to memorymapping

[echo basalt]

still

[wet breach]

but MC already stores chunks in that time you are wanting

[echo basalt]

I'll eventually have to store block data per user on the database

[wet breach]

and compresses

[echo basalt]

The thing with MC chunks is that it stores data in a cuboid form

with pre-set sizes

[wet breach]

yes, in O(n) time

[echo basalt]

I don't know the size of the region here

or... the shape of it

necessarily

I can do some basic parsing

And convert to a cuboid which is essentially what I do

[wet breach]

And the way MC does it still works for you want

[echo basalt]

ehh

Not necessarily

[wet breach]

there isn't a way to get better then O(n)

[echo basalt]

I know

[wet breach]

which is what MC already does

[echo basalt]

But MC also stores a lot of unecessary data

[round finch]

if it is a cube easy 2 location points

[echo basalt]

and some stuff that isn't relevant

[ancient plank]

1(1)

[wet breach]

I am not saying store all the extra stuff

just don't store the extra stuff, use the same mechanism MC does

it is literally what schematics use

reason why they are relatively small given what is stored in them

[echo basalt]

Even schematics store air data

[wet breach]

not all of them do

[echo basalt]

ehh

they do

your copy doesn't

[round finch]

save -a

[echo basalt]

but they still store data internally

[wet breach]

depends on the implementation

[echo basalt]

FAWE for example stores air data

[wet breach]

you are assuming only one plugin can do schematics

[echo basalt]

because the default block state is air

[wary topaz]

sender.sendMessage("§a§lYou gave " + ? (target.equals(Player)) "yourself" : target.getName() );
How would I do this?

[echo basalt]

Even if you don't copy the air data

I can't use cuboids in my case as I'll have multiple areas next to each other and they can overlap

[wet breach]

in either case you are just making excuses in why you can't use something that is already efficient

[round finch]

do you mean if you're sender of the commend?

[echo basalt]

I've done... like weeks of work on this

[wary topaz]

its a give command so if your the arg.0 i want it to say yourself

[old cloud]

put the conditional operator in brackets

[wet breach]

and a schematic can easily convey this easily without saving a bunch of air blocks

[wary topaz]

okie

[?(target.equals(Player)) "yourself" : target.getName()]
like this?

[old cloud]

so: sender.sendMessage("§a§lYou gave " + (? (target.equals(Player)) "yourself" : target.getName()));

like this

[wary topaz]

yes thank you!

[echo basalt]

y'all mfs don't know how to use the ternary smh my head

target.equals(player) ? "yourself" : target.getName()

[round finch]

Sender player name

[old cloud]

no wait im messing up

[round finch]

smh

[echo basalt]

condition ? case1 : case2

[wet breach]

lol

[old cloud]

yea you forgot the condition

but you will need the brackets too

[echo basalt]

I think we're talking about different things honestly

[round finch]

if you are sending command

[fluid river]

once i used ternary right way you told me it's stupid hehe

[round finch]

that is you

smh

[wet breach]

probably, you didn't explain very well what you were wanting except a way to store

[fluid river]

there are just some noobs who don't know how to use ?

not everybody here

[wary topaz]

sender.sendMessage("§a§lYou gave " + target.equals(sender.getName()) ? "yourself" : target.getName());
It's erroring anyone know why?

Incompatible types. Found: 'java.lang.String', required: 'boolean'

[old cloud]

Should be sender.sendMessage("§a§lYou gave " + (target.equals(Player) ? "yourself" : target.getName()));

[echo basalt]

I have this abstract shape (just the glass blocks) that are flood-filled into a Set<BlockVector>

How would I go about minimizing that Set<BlockVector> into a Set<Cuboid> of a very low size

[wary topaz]

thank you ;D

[wet breach]

the use of it, isn't a necessity in Java and therefore you can get by without ever learning it without it affecting anything

[echo basalt]

I accept either:

• The lowest cuboid count possible
• The largest cuboids possible, regardless if it adds some extra cubes

[round finch]

@wary topaz

Player p = (Player)Sender;

p.getName() ez

[fluid river]

true

[echo basalt]

Right now my solution is good enough but not perfect, which maps each X-Y point to a Set<Line> where each line is just a range on the Z axis

[fluid river]

but p.getName() won't turn into "yourself" ya know

[echo basalt]

I need to handle stuff like random holes in the set

[wet breach]

this is similar to how chunks are sent to the client

[round finch]

then it just String lmao

[pine forge]

Is there a way to check if the player is looking at the moon?
Maybe by assuming the position of the moon based on the game time?

[fluid river]

yes

[wet breach]

the server doesn't send the client a chunk, like you think it would, instead it sends it columns of a chunk with Y being the only factor

[fluid river]

you just get players yaw and pitch

[echo basalt]

I know yeah but I'm saying like

The server doesn't group blocks together

[pine forge]

But how do you get the position of the moon?

[echo basalt]

It just... sends them individually

on the column

It doesn't say like

[fluid river]

well you would need to manually check it

[pine forge]

manually?

[wet breach]

no it doesn't but I mean how could it without doing some extra processing? lmao

[echo basalt]

"0.0.0 -> 15,15,15 is DIRT. 16,16,0 is ANVIL, rest is AIR"

I don't mind the extra processing

[round finch]

use time

that how

[fluid river]

i mean you need to get what time is it when moon is right above you

[echo basalt]

As long as the end result is easy to run checks on

[wet breach]

it sends entire columns at a time

it doesn't do it one block at a time on a column

[echo basalt]

It sends lines not cubes

[fluid river]

ya know @echo basalt , there was some guide about how some developers made chunk system. It's not just block positions, and not even "lines".

I'm gonna google and share it

it's kinda complex

but might help you

[wet breach]

line and cube are pretty much the same since it is agreed you can't take up less then a block or have things that take up no block space

[echo basalt]

But what about sending cubes made out of multiple identical lines

That's what I want to do

Grab a set of lines and convert it into the lowest amount of cubes

Imagine sending chunks by the largest cubes of blocks instead of sending each column individually

[wet breach]

Well the server ignores large sections of air already when sending those columns

[bold gorge]

Hello, What is the class "Content" supposed to be? (located in net.md_5.bungee.api.chat.hover.content.Text.java)

public class Text extends Content { ... }
//                        ^^^?^^^

[echo basalt]

I don't care about the air blocks grr

Think of this shape

[pine forge]

This should help

[echo basalt]

We can just send lines like this

but my idea is to make a huge cube represented by the 2 corners where the red points are at

[round finch]

why not just skip air?

[echo basalt]

so that we're left with another section which we can turn into 3 more cuboids

[echo basalt]

because I kinda don't have air?

[wet breach]

it wouldn't be any more efficient or less efficient to send blocks in the order of most to least since of how networks work. In the regards of storing however, it is generally better to store from least to greatest and not the other way around

[echo basalt]

This has nothing to do with chunk packets or sending blocks T_T

It has to do with representing abstract regions

[pine forge]

How can i convert the ingametime to a position of the moon?

[tardy delta]

i think i understand the idea, youre trying to store a shape in as little as possible rectangles that are as big as possible?

[echo basalt]

yeah

That entire example I sent can be represented as 4 cuboids, which represent 43 blocks

[tardy delta]

then at the point rectangles arent possible anymore, just storing blocks

[echo basalt]

It's about a 10.75 compression ratio

[echo basalt]

a cuboid can be 1x1

[tardy delta]

believe it but i dont want to be the person who has to implement the algorithm

ye i get it

[echo basalt]

my current implementation can represent it in about 4 line objects

but it still needs like 19 horizontal point instances

[wet breach]

you keep using terms that not exactly the appropriate ones to use o.O

[tardy delta]

how do those lines work? similar to rectangles?

[round finch]

oh saving cpu and ram?

[echo basalt]

uhh somewhat

basically it just makes lines like these

And stores the lines to a palette

[tardy delta]

so 1*1* some length?

[echo basalt]

yeah

so this is all considered 1 line

but on 17 different positions

[tardy delta]

cant you just extend that so those lines look for neearby blocks which could be added?

1 line huh

[pine forge]

Is there an event for when a player changes the direction theyre looking at?

[echo basalt]

and these are the other 2 lines

on 2 more positions

[tardy delta]

i thought a line was 1*1

[echo basalt]

well they are

[tardy delta]

or you mean 17 line instances or whatever

[echo basalt]

eh

the master cuboid just helps speed up contains checks

[tardy delta]

primitive generics when

[wet breach]

use a conccurent collection method

to speed up such things

[zealous osprey]

So basically a vector, where it's start and endpoint represent a corner of the cuboid?

[echo basalt]

Yeah

[tardy delta]

make it super slow and then feed it to a threadpool yummy

[echo basalt]

The flood-fill part is multi-threaded, parsing the line regions is not

I guess my next objective is to group HorizontalPoints where the line region is the same

but how would I go about converting all the points into a set of cuboids

[zealous osprey]

what are you even making?

[echo basalt]

stuff that is way too fancy

[wet breach]

they are basically wanting to come up with a whole different system to store stuff

because you know they want to

not that it is any better or anything

[zealous osprey]

As one does so very often

[grand flint]

How can I check if the user accepted a resource pack?

[tardy delta]

anyways is there a reason to use an uuid representation other than the default in mongodb?

[wet breach]

there is BSON UUID

[tardy delta]

so? :)

ik it saves it to some format internally and is able to get it back to an uuid but im just wondering where the representation is for

[wet breach]

MongoDB generates BSON UUID's or it can and therefore answers is there a reason to use something other then the default and the answer is yes

because BSON UUID is smaller at 4 vs 36

[tardy delta]

so im fine using this?

[wet breach]

also BSON UUID is already binary

so no conversions

[wet breach]

yes you are fine and MongoDB uses the way you have by default anyways

[tardy delta]

it just looks different when looking at it in mongodb compass thing

[wet breach]

lol

[tardy delta]

like bindata vs uuid, its just smth i saw idk if its important

[static ingot]

No, use a repeating task

[ancient plank]

player move event triggers when a player turns their head

[pine forge]

Yeah thats what i did. Ill schedule it every second

[static ingot]

Yes, but you generally want to avoid this because of how frequently that event is called.

[serene sigil]

whats the best way to make a while() loop (with a boolean) in spigot?

[dry forum]

whats the best way to allow aplugin to work on spigot & bungee? should i make a module for each?

[vocal cloud]

Man mongo and it's enormous IDs lol

[static ingot]

Well, Spigot doesn't make while loops work any differently.. so what are you actually trying to do?

[wet breach]

the frequency the event is called is not relevant. You will use more resources for a repeating task then you would just using the event

[serene sigil]

well, they lag the server

[flint coyote]

Then they do something that takes too long for a tick

[wet breach]

the only reason it would be relevant is it depends what you are doing, but in most cases you are better off with using the event

[static ingot]

yea, because it's going to stop everything so it can finish your for loop. if you want to do something over a period of time in Spigot, you'd schedule a task with BukkitRunnable

[serene sigil]

basically i want to execute the while loop while the chest inventory is open

and then detect stuff

[ancient plank]

things and stuff stuff and things

[wet breach]

you don't need a while loop to detect most things in an inventory

[serene sigil]

wdym?

[static ingot]

nvm

[pine forge]

Okay so uh.. ill use the event then

[serene sigil]

lol

[wet breach]

it was lol

[ancient plank]

I'm ngl the only time I've used a while loop in java was when doing user input in a cmd prompt

[flint coyote]

you can use events to detect things in an inventory

[static ingot]

Yeah, I mixed up comments while reading up again and doubted myself

maybe i shouldn't try to help here while smoking, lul

[serene sigil]

so whats the best thing to use here?

[pine forge]

true haha

[flint coyote]

you also use while loops for database things.
while(result.hasNext()) {

[wet breach]

to use events until you encounter a scenario that an event doesn't cover

[ancient plank]

I don't do database stuff, but true. I forgor about some of the matcher regex stuff I do

[sterile token]

And why not forMongo?

[wet breach]

for instance, a scenario where you might want to have such a loop is when a player is looking inside say a donkey chest and the donkey disappears

you want to close the inventory if that happens

[sterile token]

I think that Mongo library is coded better than SQL libraries

[wet breach]

MC doesn't do that in some cases, like if the player happens to teleport away lmao

[flint coyote]

because mongo isn't a relational database

[wet breach]

it depends on your use case

[sterile token]

Is Location#toVector() an intensive operation?

[wet breach]

SQL is pretty good, where people go wrong is making use of inefficient methods for SQL because SQL doesn't do that stuff for you

or setting up DB's in an inefficient way

or not making use of foreign keys

[flint coyote]

ctrl+leftclick on it and check. I'd assume it's a simple constructor call

[wet breach]

or even primary keys

[flint coyote]

you mean indices?

a foreign key doesn't have an index by default. A primary key does

[sterile token]

You can only have 1 primary per record*

[wet breach]

foreign keys links data that is relevant together

[flint coyote]

I know what a foreign key is and that there's only one primary key

but foreign key doesn't help performance at all. It only validates

[wet breach]

so if you have lets say 2 tables for users, some data between them is relevant together even though they are stored separate

a foreign key would aide this

[flint coyote]

Unless you set an index on your foreign key field

[wet breach]

it does help performance

not sure who told you otherwise, however if you set foreign keys on everything or over use it, you would be correct in that it could hurt performance

[flint coyote]

Why would a foreign key help performance? The only thing it tells the DB is that there MUST be a fitting value on the related table

It can and will still result in a full table scan if there is no index

[wet breach]

Foreign keys put the “relational” in “relational database” – they help define the relationship between tables. They allow developers to maintain referential integrity across their database. Foreign keys also help end-users by preventing errors and improving the performance of any operation that’s pulling data from tables linked by indexed foreign keys.

[sterile token]

pulling data from tables linked by indexed foreign keys

[flint coyote]

Well yeah they keep the database clean which is good for performance. But if your database is clean (without them) then there won't be an improvement

[wet breach]

Which goes back to what I said in people don't setup DB's efficiently

[wet breach]

and it is always impossible to setup DB's in a way that there always like this anyways

unless you have a small DB

[flint coyote]

That's not about the db. It's about how you work with the db

[wet breach]

then it which case doesn't really matter much, but when you have a large DB however not feasible because in most cases that involves duplicate data

[flint coyote]

gotta go for a sec. will be back in like 15 min

[wet breach]

if you say so. You can advocate not using them all you want

I will continue to recommend people using Foreign Keys where they are suited 🙂

[wet breach]

but you saying this, goes against what you said earlier in that they don't help performance.

[serene sigil]

can u detect from a Player variable if that player has an inventory currently open?

[wet breach]

there is an event for when the player opens the inventory but not when they close it, but an easy way to know if they closed it though is if they start moving, especially if their head moves

can't move head position with an inventory opened

[serene sigil]

InventoryCloseEvent

[wet breach]

hmm, guess it sends it now

I suppose you could use that

[serene sigil]

so like make a boolean (cuz i only need to detect one certain player) and set it to true while they have the inv open?

[wet breach]

however if you are making something that encompasses older versions, the older versions don't report when the inventory was closed but I suppose that event works for updated versions

[cobalt thorn]

hi a question for a checking a message some player can bypass for example like H e L l O but the plugin only detect hello or in caps how i can prevent this from happening or with numbers?

[wet breach]

You could do that if you need to know if the player still has it opened

you would need a more advanced regex

[cobalt thorn]

you mean me or the other dude?

[wet breach]

the other dude isn't trying to do stuff with chat, therefore what would they need a regex for?

[cobalt thorn]

i didn't follow the conversation

[wet breach]

the answer for you is simply you need a more advanced regex

however you are going to spend a lot of time on creating such a thing for chat filtering that it will most likely be the thing that lags your chat or possibly your server depending how you do it

[little panther]

Hey is there an Event i can use for when a player die that can give me information about what entity it was that killed the player?

[cobalt thorn]

mostly im trying to understand how i can change the number to words and trying getting the correct one

[ancient plank]

chat filtering SUCKS

[ornate mantle]

?stash

[undone axle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/

[wet breach]

EntityDamageEntityEvent and then check if the players health reached 0

[little panther]

okay, thanks

[wet breach]

that event runs before the death event happens

[ornate mantle]

how do i see sources of older versions

[flint coyote]

I said they don't help performance. And if you do everything correctly (and don't set any foreign keys) they won't help performance.
Only if you would do something wrong without them, they will actually help your db performance.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not suggesting to be like "I do everything right - I don't need foreign keys". I just wanted to mention that an index on a foreign key is the way to go most of the time. You can do it without an index for small tables or for tables that you don't call select on very often

[wet breach]

yeah I agree on this.

[serene sigil]

why tf does this not loop?????

[vocal cloud]

[smoky widget]

why java say 59/60*238 = 0 but windows calculator say 234

[eternal oxide]

integer division

59L/60*238=234

[honest badge]

how would i go about making a custom anvil recipe

when I use .setresult in anvilprepareevent

the item shows up

but i am unable to interact with it

[smoky widget]

so i need to do : int dura238 = ((long)icont.get(dura, PersistentDataType.INTEGER) / icont.get(maxdura, PersistentDataType.INTEGER)) * 238; ?

[sterile token]

There is no way to get explosion location?

[smoky widget]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/block/BlockExplodeEvent.html i think

[sterile token]

ik

[eternal oxide]

Yes. If you start with a floating point number Java will keep the accuracy. If you start with an Integer it's rounded

[crimson terrace]

59/60 is 0, 0 * 238 is 0 (talking int division that is)

probably typed it in differently on the windows calc

[smoky widget]

oh yeah

thx

[crimson terrace]

actually no the windows calc doesnt round in between operations

thats the reason

[smoky widget]

yeea it work thx you !!

[wet breach]

when doing math such as that you need to use things like floats or doubles

so that decimal isn't just like axed off

you can use an integer but you need to use Modulo to do so

[keen basin]

i use !e.isCancelled() for block place event because I have worldguard plugin but it didn't work always returns true

[static ingot]

It doesn't address your problem, but you can also set ignoreCancelled to true in your EventHandler annotation so you don't have to make a check yourself

[rare rover]

anyway to improve the performance of this? It's still really good but im worried about like sorting 2000 variables

        for (String s : list) {
            UUID uuid = UUID.fromString(s.split("::")[1]);
            if (isLoaded(s)) {
                Variable var = VariableAPI.getVariableorCreate(s, 0);
                sorted.put(uuid, var.getParsedLong());
                continue;
            }
            sorted.put(UUID.fromString(s.split("::")[1]), VariableSave.getJson().getLong("storage." + s));
        }```

[sterile token]

What are u doing?

[rare rover]

im sorting

but there

im grabbing the variables

    public static Map<UUID, Double> sortDoubleVariables(String name) {
        Map<UUID, Double> sorted = new HashMap<>();
        var list = getAllVariables(name);
        for (String s : list) {
            UUID uuid = UUID.fromString(s.split("::")[1]);
            if (isLoaded(s)) {
                Variable var = VariableAPI.getVariableorCreate(s, 0);
                sorted.put(uuid, var.getParsedDouble());
                continue;
            }
            sorted.put(UUID.fromString(s.split("::")[1]), VariableSave.getJson().getDouble("storage." + s));
        }
        return sorted.entrySet().stream().sorted(Comparator.<Map.Entry<UUID, Double>>comparingDouble(Map.Entry::getValue).reversed())
                .collect(Collectors.toMap(Map.Entry::getKey, Map.Entry::getValue, (value1, value2) -> value1, LinkedHashMap::new));
    }``` here's the whole thing

works fine but im worried about performance

[sterile token]

What does that do?

[rare rover]

it just sorts variables, let me verify so i can send images

this is my old account but whatever

@sterile token ^^

it sorts the variables

but is there a better way of doing it?

since im worried about performance

since that's only 2 variables

im planning on sorting 2500 variables

ish

[slow oyster]

Hey guys, is there an api to use for custom localisation in plugins? For my last plugin I sort of rolled my own but wondering if there's anything else I don't know about

[sterile token]

He?

I dont still understand it

[rare rover]

🫤

[sterile token]

What?

"custom locasilation"?

🤔

[rare rover]

All im asking is if theres a better way of doing that and if that will cause a lot of lag while looping 2500 variables

[sterile token]

Map#sort() or Map#stream()#sorted()

[rare rover]

I dont think it would but i used to use skript and im always worried about performance which probably shouldn't be my biggest concern

[rare rover]

Im doing that, im mostly asking about the loop

[sterile token]

Hmn i dont still udnerstand why you need that

[rare rover]

Because im using a class for variables so i gotta retrieve the variable name then its value, or if the variable isn't loaded onto the memory it'll get the variable value from the storage file

Im guessing it'll be alright but im just double checking

Since everytime the player leaves all their variables get unloaded from the memory to minimize memory leaks

Hi im using api from github for tablist (since i dont know how to use NMS) and there is some PacketPlayOutPlayerInfo but im not sure from where should i import it

i dont even have any sort of like import suggestion

i can just search for JAR on web

but we all know that is pointless

so any ideas what dependency i should add or something

also EntityPlayer

[subtle folio]

That is nms

?nms

what’s the prefix

!nms

-nms

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/general-introduction-of-packets-nms/

here you go

[mellow pebble]

what exactly ?

PacketPlayOutPlayerInfo or EntityPlayer

or even both

[subtle folio]

Both

EntityPlayer might not be if you can import it regularly i haven’t checked.

but CraftEntity is apart of nms

[mellow pebble]

well to be honest i once used this api and im looking what i added as dependency in maven because in files there is nothing related to NMS

and really i cant find nothing

[subtle folio]

Send me the api you are using

[mellow pebble]

but im 100% sure i have found something

[mellow pebble]

[subtle folio]

I’m not sure I fully understand your question

[mellow pebble]

it is kinda old

but i really dont have many options to implement to my plugin

I see

you can take the jar it gives you and add it to your intelliJ project and server

but if it’s not any of the supported versions I doubt you will have any luck

[mellow pebble]

yeah i see there is some kind of spigot.jar ill try to add it rn

[mellow pebble]

yup you are totally right that gives me all the imports and im feeling sad and dumb for not seeing it even before lmao

How can I get the characters from the last character of a string in a lore to the end of the line that that string of the lore is in if the lore contains that string?

what the, you’re trying to like the last letter in a piece of lore right

[fresh timber]

well the last few letters

ok

ill tell u exactly what im doing to explain better

I have pickaxes that you upgrade through and I want to get the number after the string "&8pick_tier: " so I can get the tier of the pickaxe to see what pick to give them next

xd

[subtle folio]

so like char lastChar = str.charAt(str.length() - 1);

if not its imposible to help

[copper hemlock]

https://paste.md-5.net/qayevuwuko.cs

I think it might be because the Chat event is async

and openInventory is sync

idk

[sterile token]

Yu have to run full code on the scheduler

There you are doing "async + sync + async"

[copper hemlock]

I see

I'll try

[sterile token]

You have to move everything into the schedule

so would be:

void event(Event event) { runTask(plugin, () -> { all other cod ehere }) cancel; }

ok my bad

runTaskLater() queue them right?

[copper hemlock]

It worked, thx a lot guys

[sterile token]

No problem

Have a good day sir

[copper hemlock]

You too 🙂

[sterile token]

So here you learn, that when you have async things you must run all of them async, if not you will have concurrency problems (if im not wrong)

is it called concurrency? or ima wrong

Also why the heck InventoryHolder allows me to call the methods from a class implementation?

yeah

🤔

where i casted it?

oh ok

yeah yeah i know 1.8 is not supported anymore and i know it is old and only reason that im using it is because minigame is pvp oriented so im going with it 🤷🏻‍♂️

[sterile token]

dont support 1.8 p´layers

[molten hearth]

its such a pain lmao

[sterile token]

You will get lot of headaches

1.8 is so fucking old

[mellow pebble]

well i just need help with this tab and it is done so 🤷🏻‍♂️

[sterile token]

i would help but i dont like legacy versions...

[balmy valve]

found it

build.gradle

[molten hearth]

java.toolchain.languageVersion = JavaLanguageVersion.of(8)

bruh

I didnt see this

maybe this makes a difference

maybe it doesnt

[mellow pebble]

ehh 🤷🏻‍♂️

[molten hearth]

FUUUCK

it doesnt

[balmy valve]

try there maybe?

I don't use gradle much I was only just messing around with architectury and their build.gradle uses this to do java 17

[balmy valve]

also anyone have any idea abt this XD

[mellow pebble]

that "shit" compiles as java 8 even though you set project version to 17 or ?

[molten hearth]

yea

its trying to compile to java 8

[mellow pebble]

go to settings > build execution deployment and go under compiler and find "Java Compiler" option

[molten hearth]

kinda gay

[mellow pebble]

and see what you have put there

it was a problem for me lately

[molten hearth]

Its already 17 there too I checked earlier

F

[mellow pebble]

why not openjdk ?

[molten hearth]

cause it doesnt make a difference lol

any java thats 17 is fine for me

[mellow pebble]

ehh yeah i guess so

[balmy valve]

have you tried anything in your build gradle file

[molten hearth]

not yet that structure is very different to mine

[balmy valve]

yeah this one does some fun stuff

[molten hearth]

https://hastebin.com/ekowezowid.kotlin this is mine atm

[balmy valve]

yeah no ideas here

gl

[molten hearth]

😂

tx

[mellow pebble]

why is gradle even a option

maven is 100 times easier to use

and easier to find everything you need

[rare rover]

?packets

Oop

Sadness

Anyone got a good tutorial on 1.19 packets?

[mellow pebble]

lmao i dont even know who records tutorials on 1.19

maybe kody simpson has something

he does some tutorials here and there

[rare rover]

He does but he using spigot's nms, im using a mapped version of mojangs

Because im using paper since it has better performance

But i cant find any tutorial on it

[eternal night]

you can translate between classes in spigot mappings and mojang mappings

https://nms.screamingsandals.org/1.19.2/

[rare rover]

True

[fallow violet]

is there a way to check permission with only having uuid of offline player?

i need it in AsyncPlayerPreLoginEvent

[eternal oxide]

not really

[fallow violet]

ah shit

[eternal oxide]

you would need to directly access your permission plugin and query it

[fallow violet]

yeah im on it but im too idiot for that xd

[sterile token]

Look about the permission plugin and his api

[fallow violet]

i do but its too complicated lmao

[eternal oxide]

simplest is to hook vault and require that

or change your plugin design so you don't need the permissions that early.

[fallow violet]

i got

it

my problem was that i runned something async but its need to be sync

[sterile token]

that why!

We already tell that a guy

When something is run async, you must run your code async. If its sync your code should be run sync

[dry forum]

whats the best way to allow aplugin to work on spigot & bungee? should i make a module for each?

[wary topaz]

How can I update the existing config file ?

getconfig.setDefaults?

[hazy parrot]

Just set(path, value)?

[wary topaz]

A string list?

I'm trying to add or remove something from a string lisdt

list*

will that work?

oh wait it does

thanks

Anyone have the slot numbers for the gray glass panes? just to save me time

[golden turret]

you can do something like this:

ItemStack item = /*your item*/;
String shape = "         "
                    + " xxxxxxx "
                    + " xxxxxxx "
                    + " xxxxxxx "
                    + " xxxxxxx "
                    + "         ";
char[] chars = shape.toCharArray();
for (int i = 0; i < chars.length; i++)
  if (chars[i] == ' ')
    inventory.setItem(i, item);```

no need to use the + in the string too

I break the lines just to make it better to see

[wary topaz]

😮

thank you 😄

[golden turret]

👍

[flint coyote]

it wants an itemstack

new ItemStack(Material)

[wary topaz]

thank you

[raw prairie]

how might I use getLineofSight?

for detecting if there is a block in front of the palyer?

my current code

                        List<Block> sight =  player.getLineOfSight(null, 2);
                        if (event.getItem().getItemMeta().equals(ItemManager.GravHammer.getItemMeta())) {
                            if(sight.contains(null)) {
                                Location playersDirection = player.getLocation().add(player.getLocation().getDirection().multiply(2));
                                player.getWorld().createExplosion(playersDirection, 5f);
                                System.out.println("I work");
                            }```

im stumped here

[flint coyote]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/LivingEntity.html#getLineOfSight(java.util.Set,int)

as per documentation you get air only if you set null for the materials

[raw prairie]

yea, i want the explosion to haapeen only in the air

so how do I set the explosion to create if it is 1 block away

or theres a block in the way

[flint coyote]

So you want it to explode if there is a block within 2 blocks range?

[raw prairie]

I want it to explode if there is air in the range

if there is a block within that range

or below

[flint coyote]

then do if(sight.isEmpty())

[raw prairie]

what if theres a block there

how would I spawn it on that block

[flint coyote]

ok wait it returns a list of blocks

[raw prairie]

yea

[flint coyote]

so basically you want an explosion only if:

• the first block is air && the second block is an actual block
  right?

[wary topaz]

https://paste.md-5.net/enasugevet.java
How can I check if the players inventory is the one i created?

[raw prairie]

eh, its more of, if the first and second block is air,

if there is a block on the first or second

spawn it on that block

[wary topaz]

line 79

and 80

[flint coyote]

so what do you want to happen when there is only air?

[raw prairie]

create explosion 2 blocks away

[flint coyote]

ah I see

[raw prairie]

I already ahve that down

[flint coyote]

then basically get 3 blocks in line of sight

[raw prairie]

but it doesnt check for blocks
