[tardy delta]

yes

[young nimbus]

ahh okay

i was using it since i started

but thats not the thing, im struggling with these null message in the title

[tardy delta]

i bet if you use ChatColor the issues will be gone

[young nimbus]

hm

but how does it work with ChatColor.translateAlternateColors?

[tardy delta]

you just do ChatColor.translateBlablabla('&', text) and instead of using that weird character you just use & for color codes

probably want to make an utility method for that lol

[young nimbus]

ughhh

[tardy delta]

``player.sendMessage(translate("&aHello there"))`

[young nimbus]

i have german keyboard, almost every german coder uses § too, but i will try

thanks

[tardy delta]

i guess & is on a german keyboard too

[indigo cave]

is anyone here familiar with protocollib?

[young nimbus]

yes of course, but you cant use & for a color code in a string if you dont translate

[tardy delta]

i am just using a lang system where messages come from a lang.yml file and get automatically translated

to more predefined messages

[young nimbus]

okay i understand

but i am not supposed to upload that plugin so i wont need a lang.yml file, its just for me

[tardy delta]

that plugin was just for me too, just makes it a little easier changing messages without having to reload the server

[young nimbus]

i get your point

but once ive all done, i wont have to change anything yk

but back to topic, ive never had any problems with using §, so i bet it wouldnt change anything if i would translate

maybe something with my enum class?

[tardy delta]

idk

[young nimbus]

ok

if someone else know pls let me know

[tardy delta]

debug that field

[ivory sleet]

You didnt assign color

this.color = color; inside the constructor of the enum is needed

Additionally, this is why final sometimes helps having, since it’d have yielded a compile time error

[young nimbus]

how tf didnt i saw it hahahah

thanks a lot man

[young nimbus]

yeah i get it

[rough drift]

how can I cancel a player changed world event

[plush shore]

what are you trying to accomplish? Preventing a player from entering another Multiverse World or from going to the end/nether?

[rough drift]

Cancel changing world, without a portal (plugin executed world switch)

[plush shore]

I guess just don't give them the option to switch with your plugin if you don't want them to.

[rough drift]

It's handled in another way, basically it's two parts that can't communicate between eachother, and then there's another part that can cancel the switch event, it's a bit complicated to explain lmao

[plush shore]

You can try EntityAddToWorldEvent

check if it is a player.

[rough drift]

That's a paper event

[topaz cape]

PlayerChangedWorldEvent?

oh wait that doesn't implement cancellable

you can try cancel PlayerTeleportEvent

[rough drift]

yeah changing to that

[plush shore]

I wish

[topaz cape]

you wish what

that's already an event

[rough drift]

if (event.getCause() != PlayerTeleportEvent.TeleportCause.PLUGIN) return;

var from = event.getFrom();
var to = event.getTo();
if(to == null) return;
var fromWorld = from.getWorld();
var toWorld = to.getWorld();

if (fromWorld == null || toWorld == null) return;

if (fromWorld.getUID().equals(toWorld.getUID())) return;
```lmao

[topaz cape]

why tf

if(event.getFrom().getWorld() == event.getTo().getWorld()) return;

[tardy delta]

im wondering how to can be null too, i saw it in the javadoc

[topaz cape]

player#teleport(null)

[tardy delta]

what does that do?

[topaz cape]

throw an exception

[tardy delta]

lmao

[hazy parrot]

Var

[tardy delta]

let better

[sterile token]

Ideas for designing a command framework?

[tardy delta]

wdym

[sterile token]

Yeah i need ideas for doing it, because i some kind of command framework which allow me to make something like simple command, argument, sub command, childs, etc command based

Also if allow to do luckperms similar structure would be great

[tardy delta]

still havent built one?

just decide what you want and starting building off that

[fading spindle]

anyway to make arrow damage more the who the person is shooting to? i tried using projectile launch event.

[drowsy helm]

like if they shoot themselves?

check for entity damage event

if damager is a projectile and the owner is equal to the damagee then apply more

[fading spindle]

oh ok that makes sense

thanks

[fading spindle]

no like if a specfice player shoots another player i want that specific player to deal more damage using the arrow

ive already setup the specific palyer part by using a hashmap

[drowsy helm]

oh yeah just do the same thing

[fading spindle]

so is there like a method called get damager in entity damage evnt

[drowsy helm]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/entity/EntityDamageByEntityEvent.html

[fading spindle]

oh i was uysing the wrong event

[sterile token]

I built one, but its really really simplier hahaa

How would you recommend cancelling putting items on second hand, but knowing that the plugin can be put on 1.19 or older versions?

[echo basalt]

Should I just ditch custom entities and publish the NMS tutorial now 🤔

but then half of nms ain't there

I only spoke about packets 💀

300 lines of packets grr

[trim lake]

Is there way how to give priority for listners, in some casses there is to listeners running, but I need only one 😄

[sterile token]

Eventhandler annotation has a priority thing

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

[trim lake]

perfect

thanks

[sterile token]

also you can make a fast search and you will find more than what you expect

I think that websites are free to read

[drowsy helm]

keep in mind the higher the priority, the later it fires

[echo basalt]

yo buby

you know much about NMS?

[drowsy helm]

yup

[trim lake]

Going to search something.

[echo basalt]

Am writing a tutorial, wanna help?

[trim lake]

thanks, that important detail

[drowsy helm]

i would but dont have time atm sorry

[echo basalt]

gotta release it by xmas

[trim lake]

Is possible make something like this: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/toast-announcements.106479/
But will read text to annouce from command ex.?

Or just send notification to advancmed area if somehting happend.

[lyric sage]

[atomic swift]

How do i get all players that are not vanished

[jagged monolith]

List through all players online, then check each player if they are isVanished then if they aren't. Add them to another list.

[white root]

I could absolutely be wrong, but I seem to remember most vanish plugins setting a metadata called "vanished"

in an old project (I dont use or maintain it anymore, so it could be outdated), I used Player.hasMetadata("vanished") to check if a player is vanished

then just iterate through online players, and if they're not, add them to your notVanished players list

[solemn frigate]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[atomic swift]

like this

List<Player> onlineplayers = Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().stream().filter(player -> !player.isInvisible()).collect(Collectors.toList());

[worldly ingot]

Sure but Player#isInvisible() isn't a method

Are you handling the vanishing? If so, throw in your own method. If you want to check the vanished state of another plugin, most vanish plugins make use of metadata so you can check that instead.
https://github.com/mbax/VanishNoPacket/blob/master/src/main/java/org/kitteh/vanish/VanishPlugin.java#L290

[atomic swift]

it is

[atomic swift]

and essx would use this

[worldly ingot]

Oh it is, lol. Though it doesn't apply to players. They just inherit it from entities

[atomic swift]

Player is an Entity lol

so im assuming it inherits Entity

[worldly ingot]

It does. They inherit isInvisible() from Entity, but Players don't respect that NBT tag

Vanish status is determined by plugins

[worldly ingot]

You can check this. I believe EssentialsX uses the same vanish metadata

[subtle folio]

LivingEntity

[worldly ingot]

public static boolean isVanished(Player player) {
    for (MetadataValue value : player.getMetadata("vanished")) {
        if (value.getAsBoolean()) {
            return true;
        }
    }

    return false;
}```

Or something like that. I can't remember exactly what it is

[atomic swift]

so use List<Player> onlineplayers = Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().stream().filter(player -> !player.getMetadata("vanished").get(0).asBoolean()).collect(Collectors.toList());

[sage patio]

if i do smth like this
its a different runnable for each player, right?

runnableList is a HashMap

[echo basalt]

am I the only one who thinks streams ugly

[atomic swift]

they are

[echo basalt]

no

you're just putting the same instance returned by Bukkit.getScheduler every time

[sage patio]

so what i should do

[atomic swift]

your suppose to do them like this

Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()
    .stream()
    .filter(
        player -> !player.getMetadata("vanished").get(0).asBoolean())
    .collect(Collectors.toList());

[echo basalt]

still ugly

[atomic swift]

ik waste of lines

[echo basalt]

there's a very crappy way of making it a 2-liner

[atomic swift]

Stream() very easy way to to make a 1 liner

[echo basalt]

List<Player> players = new ArrayList<>(Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers());
players.removeIf(player -> !player.hasMetadata("vanished") || !player.getMetadata("vanished").get(0).getAsBoolean());

[sage patio]

ImIllusion

[echo basalt]

That's a data structure issue that you need to figure out

I see a bunch of other mistakes in that tiny screenshot you sent

[subtle folio]

am I able to set the player's inventory contents in an PlayerQuitEvent?

[sage patio]

https://bukkit.org/threads/pre-quit-event-solutions.291747/

it seems you can

[subtle folio]

you cannn

[vital yacht]

It would look nice if they had the invisible check in another method, then they could just do SomeClass::isNotInvisible

[echo basalt]

Does anyone have a sample pom.xml with Specialsource?

just need it to finalize my nms tutorial

[crisp quail]

I'm trying to loop through a list of commands in a config, and execute them in order. However when I run the plugin, it sends them in a random order. Any ideas how i can fix this?

                    for (String command : config.getStringList("startup.commands")) {
                        new DelayedTask(() -> {
                            Bukkit.dispatchCommand(Bukkit.getConsoleSender(), command);
                        }, 10);
                    }

[echo basalt]

do the for loop inside of the task

seems like a concurrency thing

[crisp quail]

It seems to now wait 10 seconds and then send them both at the same time.

[echo basalt]

you want to run one every 10 seconds?

like in order?

[eternal oxide]

no way will it be 10 seconds. thats in ticks

[crisp quail]

yes

[echo basalt]

ah

[eternal oxide]

ah custom task

[crisp quail]

I'm using a function

yes

[echo basalt]

for(int index = 0; index < list.size(); index++) {
  String command = list.get(index);
  new DelayedTask(() -> ..., (index+1) * 10);
}

type deal

Mind giving a quick look at my NMS guide before I post it?

this https://paste.md-5.net/ibijukehev.java throws this error https://paste.md-5.net/bomejucuwu.rb i have no idea what what is

[humble tulip]

can i see your config?

@near night

[near night]

yup

[humble tulip]

it's because youre casting to HashMap

[near night]

give me one sec

[near night]

https://paste.md-5.net/fiwonakako.makefile

[humble tulip]

dont save the map like that

[near night]

im just doing this java public static void saveBlocksStore(HashMap<Location, Integer> blocks) { //set the blocks store file to the hashmap blocksStore.set("blocks-store", blocks); //save the blocks store file try { blocksStore.save(blocksStoreFile); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } }

how else can i do it?

[humble tulip]

        Map<Location, Integer> locationIntegerMap = getMap();

        int counter = 0;

        locationIntegerMap.forEach((location, integer) -> {
            config.set("blocks-store." + counter + ".location", location);
            config.set("blocks-store." + counter + ".blocks", integer);
        });

like this @near night

[near night]

tysm

[humble tulip]

and you get like this

        ConfigurationSection section = config.getConfigurationSection("blocks-store");

        if (section == null)
            return new HashMap<>();

        Map<Location, Integer> map = new HashMap<>();

        for (String key : section.getKeys(false)) {
            map.put(section.getLocation(key + ".location"), section.getInt(key + ".blocks"));
        }

[near night]

thx

[subtle folio]

Do i use .equals or == for uuids?

[regal scaffold]

.equals

[subtle folio]

kk

[jagged monolith]

.equals because it's a string technically.

[vital yacht]

Uh it's not because it's a string, it's because it's an object

== compares references, .equals() compares the actual values of objects

Does anyone know the event for when a structure block is used?

[wet breach]

and don't forget === does both

[ancient plank]

:)

[shadow owl]

You can always do the ol' PlayerInteractEvent and check if its a structure interaction?

[vital yacht]

I need to know the blocks being placed though

[vital yacht]

In what language lol

[drowsy helm]

javascript

[jagged monolith]

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

[vital yacht]

That’s not what === does

[drowsy helm]

oh he probs meant as a joke then

[vital yacht]

I’ll take a look at that thanks, I don’t know much about how structure blocks work so I didn’t realize it keeps track of the structure after it is placed

[torn oyster]

would you guys recommend i use eco to create my plugin

[undone axle]

Spoonfeed a newbie for a day and they'll come back with more questions. Teach them to find their own answers and you'll both be better off: you won't get stuck answering the easy questions and they'll be much more productive than before.

[abstract sleet]

You might want to add another reserved reply. With that to-do list you will surely exceed what you've currently got 😁

Thanks a lot for the guide, been meaning to get into NMS lately, wanting to play around with the entity metadata packets.

[abstract sleet]

what do you need out of it?

if you're going to use someone else's library, make sure you really need to use it, you are able to fork it and maintain it yourself if it changes into a bad direction or gets discontinued, etc

[torn oyster]

i just heard it was good for developing lol

also nice name :P

[abstract sleet]

I would have changed it to my Spigot username but

[abstract sleet]

eco seems like a library that a plugin would heavily depend on if written for it, though you would get outstanding integration with eco plugins if you used it

you should ask in their Discord if your plugin would be suited for it

[rough drift]

Why do teams only use ChatColor in 1.19? Couldn't they use a Color class since we have hex support now?

Teams have always used normal ChatColor and not supported hex. I'm not exactly sure of the reason, but I know it's always been that way.

Hi somene help please how can i get DIAMOND value or normal value using getconfig()?

Generator:
  normal:
  - STONE:60
  - COAL_ORE:10
  - IRON_ORE:8
  - GOLD_ORE:5
  - REDSTONE_ORE:7
  - LAPIS_ORE:7
  - EMERALD_ORE:2.5
  - DIAMOND_ORE:2.0
  DIAMOND:
  - DIAMOND_ORE:100

[desert loom]

you mean converting a string to a Material?

[wooden garnet]

are there any good analogues to std::deque in java?

[hardy pollen]

no i only want to get normal String here

or DIAMOND string

like get list Generator have string value:

• DIAMOND
• normal

[desert loom]

I'm kind of confused do you want to get the path Generator.DIAMOND as a List<String>?

not sure what you mean by normal string

[hardy pollen]

no i want to get path: Generator

i just want to get key name

[wooden garnet]

use Map type

[hardy pollen]

i tried but it not work

it return value null when i using getconfig.getMapList

[wooden garnet]

It should be List< Map< String, Object > > according to the snippet u provided earlier

[hardy pollen]

do you have an example?

[hardy pollen]

uh can you help please

[desert loom]

I'm still having trouble understanding what you're trying to achieve

if you want the Generator section I guess you could do

ConfigurationSection generatorSection = getConfig().getConfigurationSection("Generator")

that would return the Generator section and calling getKeys() on it will return a Set<String> of normal, DIAMOND since they are part of the Generator section.
again, I don't know if that's what you're looking for

[echo basalt]

The guide is at around 25k characters, I have 60k reserved

[frank kettle]

Hey, for some reason my code is not working properly. I'm trying to create something called alliances(like clans, guilds), and everything stores fine in the local yml file when creating the alliance itself.

But then I'm making a command to store in an arraylist used names/tags and a command to list every alliance and it's not working, it keeps returning null(from doing yml.getString...) even tho when speaking on chat it puts my alliance tag fine and when doing /alliance command it opens fine my alliance info.

The code right now is after 5 seconds(a scheduler) the server opens it checks the alliances on yml and loads them. (Beforehand it wasn't working even without the 5 second scheduler so I added it to maybe load it when server was "fine" opened)

current YML file:

alliance:
  total: 2
  '1':
    status: 1
    leader: bad38249-dea9-32bb-84ae-6ec0eb26a3d9
    tag: Test
    name: Testing Alliance
    members: bad38249-dea9-32bb-84ae-6ec0eb26a3d9
    level: 0
    xp: 0
    totalxp: 0
    reputation: 0
  '2':
    status: 1
    leader: bad38249-dea9-32bb-84ae-6ec0eb26a3d9
    tag: Abcd
    name: ABCDEFGH
    members: bad38249-dea9-32bb-84ae-6ec0eb26a3d9
    level: 0
    xp: 0
    totalxp: 0
    reputation: 0

But then when I get the total alliances and then a for to check the alliances names, all return null names and tags...

Bukkit.getScheduler().scheduleSyncDelayedTask(Main.getInstance(), new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                allowToJoin = true;
                int totalAlliances = alliancesYML.getInt("alliance.total");
                for (int i = 0; i < totalAlliances; i++) {
                    String path = "alliance.'" + i + "'.";
                    if (alliancesYML.getInt(path + "status") == 0) {
                        Alliance alliance = new Alliance(i);
                        if (alliance.getChunks() != null && alliance.getChunks().size() > 0) {
                            for (String chunk : alliance.getChunks()) {
                                allianceChunks.put(chunk, i);
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }, 20L * 5);```

oh god the nesting

[frank kettle]

this is the code to load them when they start

[grizzled pollen]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[frank kettle]

the Alliance class has a setup which loads what's on the yml

:susthink:

[covert yacht]

Does someone has an issue with onClickBlock firing twice ?

[frank kettle]

public Alliance(int id) {
        this.id = id;
        setup();
    }

    public void setup() {
        Bukkit.broadcastMessage("Starting setup of an alliance...");
        String path = "alliance.'" + id + "'.";
        if (Main.getInstance().alliancesYML.getInt(path + "status") == 1) {
            setStatus(STATUS.DELETED);
            Bukkit.broadcastMessage("- Alliance deleted.");
        } else {
            setStatus(STATUS.ACTIVE);
            this.leader = Main.getInstance().alliancesYML.getString(path + "leader");
            String membersData = Main.getInstance().alliancesYML.getString(path + "members");
            ArrayList<String> members = new ArrayList<>();
            if (membersData != null) {
                members.addAll(Arrays.asList(membersData.split("#")));
            } else {
                members.add(this.leader);
            }
            this.members = members;
            this.tag = Main.getInstance().alliancesYML.getString(path + "tag");
            this.name = Main.getInstance().alliancesYML.getString(path + "name");```

smth like this, then there's more below

🤔

[echo basalt]

?interact

idk the command

there is one

[summer agate]

It fires for main and offhand. Check something like event.gethand

[frank kettle]

it keeps returning null from the YML file tho, even tho it stores fine and gets it fine when i do /alliance

[covert yacht]

So when a click is emitted it emits for both ?

[summer agate]

Both events get fired

[echo basalt]

?interactevent

[undone axle]

The PlayerInteractEvent may be called once per hand. If you only want code to be executed once, you can check the result of https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/player/PlayerInteractEvent.html#getHand(), then decide functionality.

For example, only executing code if the main hand was used:

@EventHandler
public void onPlayerInteract(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
    if (event.getHand() != EquipmentSlot.HAND) { // * if the hand used is NOT the main hand:
        return; // do not progress past this point  |
    }
    // provide functionality
}

[echo basalt]

this one

[covert yacht]

if (event.getHand() == EquipmentSlot.OFF_HAND) {
    return;
}```

?arrowcode

[undone axle]

http://wiki.c2.com/?ArrowAntiPattern

[covert yacht]

Is this not called spaghetti code ?

[echo basalt]

no

[frank kettle]

it does a for per alliance on yml and then checks their status and loads them.
and then it checks if they have any chunks claimed as an alliance and stores them in the hashmap to use for checking when someone else tries to break into their chunks

[echo basalt]

spaghetti code is worse

this mf tryna act like chatgpt

[frank kettle]

not really

just been stuck on this for past 2 days and really dont know what else to change and try to fix

[echo basalt]

I'm telling you that your code looks unreadable, and it can be more legible

you're telling me what it does

[frank kettle]

bet it's some small thing i'm not seeing so I'm giving my shot here

[echo basalt]

also no point in looping through your aliances like that

[dawn hazel]

Just a side note making your code more readable/making it a habit will save you a lot of trouble

It will save your life

[frank kettle]

I can put my chunks loading inside the Alliance class but the problem is the thing before where it's not loading the YML correctly.

it does correctly in the command, but not there

[frank kettle]

😔 It turned into a mess when trying to fix the bug

[summer agate]

That's why I like to commit before starting to fix, then get it to work, and rollback and put the fix without messing up more code. Might work for you

[echo basalt]

ConfigurationSection alliancesSection = config.getConfigurationSection("alliances");

for(String key : alliancesSection.getKeys(false)) {
  if(key.equalsIgnoreCase("total") {
    continue; // this is not an alliance
  }

  parseAliance(alliancesSection.getConfigurationSection(key));
}

public void parseAlliance(ConfigurationSection section) {
  Status[] statuses = Status.values();
  
  Status status = statuses[section.getInt("status", 1)];
  String leader = section.getString("leader");
  List<String> members = new ArrayList<>(List.of(section.getString("members").split("#")));

  if(members.isEmpty()) {
    members.add(leader);
  }

  String tag = section.getString("tag");
  String name = section.getString("name");

  Alliance alliance = new Alliance(status, leader, members, tag, name);
  // register the alliance
}

no need to overcomplicate it

[frank kettle]

oh yeah the configurationsection thing

i saw it few months ago but never got to use it or learn it

[echo basalt]

this is why you're struggling

[frank kettle]

so over there u changed the Alliance to receive all the arguments right away on it. is there a reason for it? why not the way i have where i put the ID and the class itself loads them? (or is this a problem?)

[echo basalt]

Alliance is a data class

passing the loading logic to it breaks the single responsibility principle

you can just make 2 constructors

or you can make a constructor with the section and parse it there, bit stupid but still

[frank kettle]

I will try to change my alliance code into being like that first(the class) and then if doesnt work i will look into learning and testing ConfigurationSections

i will move to configurationsections later on if not needed yet but feels like i really need to learn them soon🤔

[echo basalt]

FYI

[frank kettle]

thank you for the time

[echo basalt]

a FileConfiguration extends ConfigurationSection

pretty sure the only difference is that it has the save(File) and save(OutputStream) methods

[frank kettle]

It's just that I been using that forever and been working fine for me to store something that only the server needs(for more global data i use mysql)

weird how it's returning null for the first time, hella annoying

ty again, I will get back to fixing it

[crisp quail]

I'm trying to check that if the user has enabled the players-needed module, and then check that if the current online player count is above the specified threshold in the config.

That all works fine, however I need it so if "loop" is equal to true in the config, that it will go back and wait the specified amount of time and then try again.

I'm not sure how to properly implement this, any ideas?

if (config.getBoolean("startup.enabled")) {
            // If wait length is above 0
            if (config.getInt("startup.wait-length") >= 0 && config.getInt("startup.command-interval") >= 0) {
                int seconds = config.getInt("startup.wait-length");
                // Wait specified time
                new DelayedTask(() -> {
                    // Check if there is enough players
                    if (config.getBoolean("startup.players-needed.enabled")) {
                        if (config.getInt("startup.players-needed.amount") >= 0) {
                            if (Bukkit.getServer().getOnlinePlayers().size() < config.getInt("startup.players-needed.amount")) {
                                getLogger().severe("Couldn't send command as there aren't enough players online!");
                                getLogger().severe("Check your config.yml if you think this is a mistake!");
                                return;
                            }
                        }
                    }
                    // For command in commands code
                }, seconds);
            } else {
                getLogger().severe("Couldn't send command as config.yml is invalid!");
            }
        }

My config:

startup:
  enabled: true
  players-needed:
    enabled: false
    amount: 1
    loop: true
  wait-length: 5
  command-interval: 2
  commands:
    - "say [AutoCommand] Thanks for using me!"

[summer agate]

Ok first off go invert some if statements so theres not so much indentation. Make a seperate method to check the option, and then you can loop that method

so instead of ```java
if (config.getBoolean("startup.players-needed.enabled")) {

do

```java
if !(config.getBoolean("startup.players-needed.enabled")) {
  return;
} 

That way you can keep most code on one level, keeping it readable.

[frank kettle]

there's a bug on that code you sent me btw, says this:

[echo basalt]

Arrays.asList

not my fault you're coding in java 8

[frank kettle]

just asking :dontLikeThis:

not putting fault

[frank kettle]

didnt know there was a diff version of such thing

i have latest releases almost, like from 2 months ago on everything, is it an option I have to change somewhere?

[echo basalt]

you're coding your project in java 8

[frank kettle]

I clicked to update to 9 over there

[echo basalt]

and running it on like java 17

[frank kettle]

i didn't know, i thought downloading latest jdk would put me with latest

where do i change this? is it project or on the IDE? :susthink:

[echo basalt]

either Project Structure or on your build.gradle/pom.xml

[frank kettle]

this?

[echo basalt]

ye

[frank kettle]

or this "9" now?

since i updated to 9

or is it correct right now?

i checked online something from a month ago and they using same versions as mine for those options

i guess now is fully updated?

[main dew]

exists place ender crystal event?

[hybrid spoke]

block place event probably

[frank kettle]

end_crystal block

[hybrid spoke]

otherwise entityspawnevent

[echo basalt]

pretty sure end crystals just work like spawn eggs

[main dew]

oke thanks

do you know event to put flower into flower pot?

[hybrid spoke]

playerinteractevent

[crisp quail]

Using this config how would I make it so:

• if loop is enabled, it continues to loop through the code until the player-needed.amount is met
• If loop is disabled, it goes through the code only once

Nice overview

[misty ingot]

how can I have the user select a region (like in worledit) and then when someone tries to go outside that specified region they are pushed back?
(this is for a minigame so I'd need it to work efficiently and only when some variables are true)

[tardy delta]

Learn the worldguard API ig

[misty ingot]

time to die

[tardy delta]

Correct

[misty ingot]

I was really wishing that there was an easy way to just do it myself

[tardy delta]

Probably

Listening to some events

[molten hearth]

The worldguard api is a horrible pain in the ass good luck

[tardy delta]

Worldedit too

[molten hearth]

WorldPain Collective™️

[tardy delta]

And their support server is a bunch of idiots that ban you for whatzver reason

Got kicked a few times

[misty ingot]

all I need is to allow a user to select 2 regions in a map (for 2 teams) and then not let the team members exit their respective regions

[tardy delta]

And then banned cuz i helped People and im not supposed to do that

[echo basalt]

cubecraft discord be like

[molten hearth]

From someone who designed such a terrible api I'm not surprised they designed the discord in such a terrible way

[tardy delta]

Lol

[plain helm]

Hello guys any of you has any idea of what happens if I set the amount of an item to 0?

[tardy delta]

It goes away doesnt it?

[plain helm]

yeah I think so

[tardy delta]

Or is the amount indicator gone?

[plain helm]

yea that's my doubt

[tardy delta]

Try it

[kind hatch]

Pretty sure it removes the item.

[plain helm]

Alr I'll try it for science

[misty ingot]

I currently have 2 options

either I scrap my minigame idea (which is a pretty OG idea and I dont think anyones made it before)
or I literally kill myself trying to learn the worldedit/worldguard API

[echo basalt]

it becomes a red 0 below 1.9

above 1.9 it just becomes air

[plain helm]

oh ok nice

I was making a new project just to test it, you saved me a lot of time ❤️

[misty ingot]

is there a "crash course" for the worldedit/worldguard api?

I am kinda in the mood to make this minigame without killing myself in the process

[tardy delta]

I want to make a general class ‘Move’ which stores a list of projectiles and has a method ‘Run’ which then just returns the result of a method for each of its extensions

Sigh this sounds so ugly

I just wish I knew how to do it

It seems so much like something that should be obvious

[fierce salmon]

Do inventory slots start at the number 0 or 1?

[hazy parrot]

if i would guess i would say 0

[fierce salmon]

alright

[misty ingot]

yes they start from 0

like the indices of a list

[fierce salmon]

what event do I use to look to see if the inventory that is clicked on has a certain name?

[hazy parrot]

inventoryclickevent ?

[river oracle]

Don't check for inventories like that

Make a wrapper object and save the inventory object. Use Dependency Injection to pass it around

[lavish wing]

Guys, how can I display a list of players but in a normal way?
https://ibb.co/341ZBjt

            sender.sendMessage("§ePlayers online: §2" + getServer().getOnlinePlayers().length + "/" + getServer().getMaxPlayers());
            sender.sendMessage("§eList: " + Arrays.toString(getServer().getOnlinePlayers()));
            sender.sendMessage("§6================§e[§2TAB§e]§6================");```

[river oracle]

A loop

[lavish wing]

?

[river oracle]

A loop

A for loop you know

[fossil lily]

Use a string builder in a for loop and append the name and what you want in between each name

[lavish wing]

Its right?

[tardy delta]

players.stream().collect(Collectors.joining(", ")) or smth

[lavish wing]

[tardy delta]

players must be a collection

[vale ember]

Hey guys. i wanted to ask, how much more/less efficient is PDC compared to sqlite? In my case i wanna store a list of string ids for each player

[tardy delta]

more

databases will always be slow, pdc is backed by a kind of map afaik

[lavish wing]

Uhm i dont know how to use Collection

[vale ember]

k, thanks for the info

[hazy parrot]

Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers is collection

is there a way for me to check to see what the name of the gui inventory that is being opened is?

[zealous scroll]

Is it recommended to do dependency injection with Guice or pass the plugin instance to constructors? I'm currently passing my plugin instance to the necessary constructors but I've been reading using Guice is a better practice

[ivory sleet]

Well, wouldn't you still pass your plugin instance through the constructor?

guice has field injection sure, but iirc thats discouraged

[zealous scroll]

Field injection is what I meant yeah

[echo basalt]

don't see a need for field injection honestly

just use a constructor

[ivory sleet]

^, mainly field injection sort of advocates mutability

which is discouraged unless reasoned for

and yeah for reference reybot, https://github.com/google/guice/wiki/MinimizeMutability

[small current]

nothing?

[radiant cedar]

I just started using sql for player stats. Is this way better than just getting and changing from sql everytime

How do ppl usually use sql for player stats

Do you crete object for each player where an instance is stored and save it onto sql sometimes

[small current]

uuid

[radiant cedar]

Ye uuid is my primary key but

[small current]

all of the plugins use uuid

[ivory sleet]

Yes, one design choice regarding saving data is to sync with the database with a given interval

[radiant cedar]

Should i make object player stats for each player and keep an instance

[ivory sleet]

a sync buffer or whatever u wna call it

[radiant cedar]

Or just keep pulling data from sql

[ivory sleet]

but yes demopro

[small current]

if you save it async there should be no problem

and you can pull it once joined

and store it in a hashmap

apply all the edits you want to the PlayerData object

no need of pulling

i do this

[ivory sleet]

fetch on join, save on leave or/and after changing the data

[ivory sleet]

mhm

az pmzhero said

HashMap<UUID,YourPlayerStatsClass>

one per player

[radiant cedar]

Ok but looping through the hashmap wouldnt be suboptimal right to find the player each time

[ivory sleet]

its a map

you can use map.get(uuid)

Oh ye it doesnt loop

no i use it

intercept? you seem to be using the vernacular incorrectly.

Worldedit probably just uses nms for fast setting

hey, i have a quiestion, i wanted to start making plugins again, i did this a prob half a year ago. but since stopped
i though i used to have the build (artifacts) button somewhere on top of there
but i cant find how. if anyone knows, this would make my life 10 times easier

[sterile token]

Also on player kick need to save it too, because i think that PlayerQuitEvent is not run on server kicks

[sterile token]

That is a maven project, so you have to build with maven

This way you are using, is building the project via ant, which would not be okay because its a maven project

[dawn plover]

oh aha

i am going to look in to that, but never really did it though XD

[sterile token]

yeah

I would either suggest using maven or gradle for projects, because they will keep you faster and dependencies are easier to manage

Build against Spigot and your code will always work on Paper. Not vice versa

No matter what I change the prefix to the arrow stays

i kind of ran in to a problem, the problem being that I am alone XD
how do I easily test multi user plugins without a alt account (and only a local server)
for example tick tack toe
i already thought about:

• bringing friends over, but thats to hard to do for simply testing
• buying a alt account, but... no...
• making a public server, have no idea how, i remember it beeing hard and not knowing the password of my routers
  (i mean, if a public server is the only way i need to take a look at that again :( )

[gilded knot]

the <> is there by default

[sacred mountain]

or get friends

[dawn plover]

where would i do that, only thing i can find are websites that sell them for like 12$, but they all have full username and skins and stuff

not sure if thats totally legal or just stolen, anyway, its 10$ to much XD

[echo basalt]

game pass literally gives you the game for free

you just buy the game pass trial for 1$

under a new microsoft account

and profit

I did it during my hypixel developer interviews to have a nice account name with no bans

[tardy delta]

lmao

im perm banned from hypixel

[echo basalt]

then they asked for all my account names

[tardy delta]

on another ip so i dont really care

[echo basalt]

but it didn't really matter, watchdog bans don't influence your development skills

I had some weak points during my interviews that I've been working on

and some weird scheduling conflicts like school

[fierce goblet]

I use this plugin long time... and i naver have this. My antyvirus: G data.

Thats from spigot

[agile anvil]

We need the link

[fierce goblet]

i have this plugin on my computer

[agile anvil]

This plugin is corrupted. Don't use it anymore and remove it from your computer. Download a new one on spigotmc.org

[fierce goblet]

i download this plugin 2021-05-06

okey but i download this from official site spigotmc this is reason why i ask

[eternal oxide]

link the spigot page or we can do nothing

[fierce goblet]

really i use my computer yester day 2 days ago but this popup kmy antyvirus show me today

[dawn plover]

oh, minecarft wont even let me open a new launcher, cus this one already occupied

[gilded knot]

any fixes?

[ornate stag]

hi, i'm new in here so if i'm breaking any rules please warn me!

well, i've got an yml file that is given data in this structure:

bbbdcbc1-996c-435d-9297-9898b419dadc:
Name: George
Staff: Yes
Rank: Begginer
bbbdcbc1-996c-435d-9297-9898b419dadc:
Name: Bob
Staff: No
Rank: Master

how can i go through every key, find the one that has the value 'Bob' and get his UUID?

[gilded knot]

^

[eternal oxide]

I already told you, You can't get a player in teh pre login event

[gilded knot]

How would I fix it though

It's the only bug stopping me from completing my plugin

[eternal oxide]

you can't

[gilded knot]

:|

[eternal oxide]

there is NO Player in the pre login event

[gilded knot]

Is there another event I can use instead?

[eternal oxide]

join event

[gilded knot]

ah right, cheeres

[eternal oxide]

you can read your sql data in pre login and then give the item in the join event

[gilded knot]

Cheerio

Ultimately, this

Sorry, It's 10PM

Haven't slept in 15-16 hours

[agile anvil]

What does it say when you hover the yellow error?

[rough drift]

nullable

I can see it from here

giveReward doesn't take into account that the player might be null

[eternal oxide]

use event.getPlayer() not Bukkit.getPlayer

[rough drift]

Also that

[gilded knot]

Oh

right

Uh

[gilded knot]

Oh and new bug; It keeps giving me tokens every time I rejoin

[rough drift]

Player player = event.getPlayer();

try {
  if(hasReferral(player.getUniqueId())) {
    giveReward(player);
    removeReferral(player.getUniqueId());
  }
} catch(SQLException e) {
  e.printStackTrace();
  // Kick player optionally
}

[gilded knot]

Right

[rough drift]

Edited it btw

[gilded knot]

So I need to create a new function for removeReferral

gotcha

[rough drift]

Yep

And with that remove any referrals

You should actually do it this way

[gilded knot]

Mhm

reason I was making my own referral plugin is because other ones are either crap or don't support 1.19

[rough drift]

UUID referrer = removeReferral(player.getUniqueId());
if(referrer == null) {
  return;
}

giveReward(player);
// Give a reward to the referrer

Something like that in the try-catch

because then you can get the referrer, check for referral and remove the referral at once

[gilded knot]

This is my addReferral function

[rough drift]

Yeah

[gilded knot]

I'll just modify it so it removes it

[rough drift]

Remove has referral, then make remove referral get & remove (there is a way to do this in sql, forgot how) and make it return the referral if any

otherwise null

ah yes

you can do

DELETE from table where this = that RETURNING *;

[golden turret]

why does this happen? I can build the jar without a problem but IJ keeps saying this

using the latest version, of course

[rough drift]

the return type of your y() is not the same as the superclass'

[golden turret]

thats the thing

I dont have that method

[rough drift]

Show me the contents of EntitySlime & your class

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[golden turret]

the EntitySlime is from the nms

[rough drift]

don't have nms ready rn

[gilded knot]

DELETE from referrals (referring_player_uuid) RETURNING *?

[rough drift]

DELETE from referrals WHERE referring_player_uuid = '?' RETURNING *;

something like that

[gilded knot]

then .setString

ah got it

[rough drift]

though you should delete by referred_player_uuid

otherwise if that player refers two players it will also remove the other referral

[gilded knot]

mhm yeah

So in pseudocode

When a player joins

go into database, Check if any players have typed /refer Ryzanite

If there is, then execute /givetoken Ryzanite 2

[rough drift]

basically yes

[gilded knot]

then delete list of players who did /refer Ryzanite for ryzanite

[rough drift]

well not exactly

[gilded knot]

?

[rough drift]

this should run the delete

so you make one SQL request

and not two

[gilded knot]

ah right

[rough drift]

RETURNING * already gives you the output

[gilded knot]

Ah right

[rough drift]

should be referred_player_uuid

[gilded knot]

got it

[rough drift]

otherwise if playerA refers playerB and playerC, if playerB joins it removes playerC's referral

[gilded knot]

Yeah, understood

[rough drift]

Yeah

like that

though make it return the output referrer UUID

[gilded knot]

A tiny bit confused

[rough drift]

you need to parse the result

it returns a ResultSet

which has two values

[gilded knot]

Right

[rough drift]

you need to get whichever one is the referrer

and parse the UUID

[gilded knot]

Wait how do I reference to the result?

[rough drift]

hm?

[gilded knot]

Oh the execute statement

of*

[rough drift]

executeQuery

it returns a ResultSet

you probs want to use ResultStatement#getString for the UUID

so like

myStatement.executeQuery().getString(0);

gtg

[gilded knot]

Yeah cheers

wait got it

I think this is it?

[ornate stag]

guys, can i have some help?

[jagged monolith]

You don't even mention what you need help with. So how are people meant to help you.

[ornate stag]

check messages above

[zealous osprey]

They mean this, I assume

[ornate stag]

yes

[zealous osprey]

it'd be best if you'd provide the message link or reply to the message, rather than saying "check above", since that's very vague

[ornate stag]

i tried to do that :\

can't reply to my own messages

[zealous osprey]

You can?

[ornate stag]

WAIT

I CAN

WTF

[ornate stag]

WOW

[gilded knot]

?

[ornate stag]

should've checked the 3 dots

[zealous osprey]

To answer this:
You can get your file as a FileConfiguration object, from which you can use the method #getKeys(bool deep), the boolean stands for, if you'll get every possible key in the case of true or just the next keys in the case of false.
In your case you probably want to set it to false. And when you got the keys you can loop over them and find where "Bob" is

[ornate stag]

doesnt false get only the highest level keys?

[zealous osprey]

Here's some stuff to read, if you need to specifically know what the methods do
https://helpch.at/docs/1.11/index.html?org/bukkit/configuration/file/FileConfiguration.html

[zealous osprey]

it does, but those are all you need

[ornate stag]

ok

also, which path do i give? since i haven't got any paths
is it ok if it is is only ""?

[zealous osprey]

use the getKeys() method just on the plain FileConfiguration object

[ornate stag]

god damn

ur a fking genius

thank you

[river oracle]

if I want to use CompleteableFuture how many threads should I put in the Executor?
Executor executor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(10); Is in the example I am looking at, but I don't want to hog resources or possibly cause a server crash from running these tasks

[hazy parrot]

If you do small io tasks, just use cached thread pool

[river oracle]

I'm just doing database queries with callbacks

[tardy delta]

whats wrong with the common pool?

[river oracle]

doesn't that not work unless you set the system property I wasn't sure if spigot had it set or what

[hazy parrot]

what

[tardy delta]

might just use the bukkit scheduler to complete cfs

[river oracle]

does Bukkit Scheduler have callbacks? I feel stupid for not knowing

[tardy delta]

no

[river oracle]

I need to query than do X after

which Ig i could lump in one async task

[tardy delta]

just do

var future = new CompletableFuture<>();
scheduler.async(() -> {
  // some heavy stuff
  future.complete(result);
});

future.thenAccept(System.out::println);```

or use the common pool

[river oracle]

👍🏽

thanks mr brush

[tardy delta]

might wanna specify the bukkit scheduler as executor tho as a lambda

task -> scheduler.async(plugin, task) whatever

then do CF.supplyAsync(stuff, task -> blablabla)

going to sleep now anyways

[rich condor]

Hello. Does anyone have an idea how to set a limit of people who can access protection. The plugin in question is StoneProtect

[heavy elm]

Hi guys, I got a "funny" (💀) problem
Basically I am creating a plugin (called sSkills) that uses a H2 database, that I relocated because I like relocating 👍

Another plugin (ajLeaderboards) uses the same library but with a different version
My plugin somehow ends up loading ajLeaderboards' H2 Driver class even tho I have no link to this plugin since I'm registering the driver using the following:

Class.forName("fr.stellarfx.sskills.libs.h2.Driver");

And it still produces this cute message:

[sSkills] Loaded class us.ajg0702.leaderboards.libs.h2.Driver from ajLeaderboards v2.6.3 which is not a depend or softdepend of this plugin.

It ends up in my database getting corrupted since it doesn't use the same version
Note that my plugin works perfectly fine with no other plugin on the server, I can even reload it, do coffee with it and everything

Idk maybe I just implemented it badly but I searched Google, and I feel like I can't do any better
Thanks 👍

[hushed spindle]

i've got a bit of an annoying issue, where every time i try to save an ItemStack to a config file it's changed ever so slightly in that supposedly identical items no longer match after being loaded in.
as example, this item:
ItemStack{STONE x 1, UNSPECIFIC_META:{meta-type=UNSPECIFIC, display-name={"extra":[{"italic":false,"color":"white","text":"Not Stone"}],"text":""}}}
turns into
ItemStack{STONE x 1, UNSPECIFIC_META:{meta-type=UNSPECIFIC, display-name={"extra":[{"bold":false,"italic":false,"underlined":false,"strikethrough":false,"obfuscated":false,"color":"white","text":"Not Stone"}],"text":""}}}

causing them to stop stacking and just stop being identical when needed. visually the item looks the exact same, but saving an item to a config file seems to just add this extra nonsense. how can i get around this issue

[eternal night]

You don't

Pretty much

[last sleet]

I've never really messed around with files, but maybe you could "serialize" the item into a string that you can later decode?

[eternal night]

The Bukkit system does a full load of the item into their API

And that conversation sadly is not guaranteed to maintain the exact same nbt

As seen here

[wet breach]

serialize it

[eternal night]

[river oracle]

I'm still a bit confused on how I should wrap my brain around this. I'm using a Guava's LoadingCache

    @Override
    public SlayedPlayer load(UUID key) throws Exception {
        // heavy database call
        return this.database.select(key);
    }

now I want to get the value of the cache but a call to LoadingCache#get or LoadingCache#getUnchecked would block main thread. Now I would just supply async to the retrieval method, but that seems unecessarily heavy. As in most cases its likely the value will be there. So i'd end up creating an asynchronous thread for pretty much no reason and it'd almost immediately close rather than just retrieving sync since the value is there

** solved **

    public static Future<SlayedPlayer> get(final UUID uuid) {

        if (cache.getIfPresent(uuid) != null) {
            return CompletableFuture.completedFuture(cache.getIfPresent(uuid));
        }
        
        return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(() -> {
            return cache.getUnchecked(uuid);
        });
    }```

iim making a shop plugin and if people want to make a spawner shop how would they do that since theres only a material of the spawner not the individual mob spawners

[regal scaffold]

[20:37:28] [Server thread/WARN]: (
[20:37:28] [Server thread/WARN]:     `Unique` int default 0,
[20:37:28] [Server thread/WARN]:     Total    int default 0
[20:37:28] [Server thread/WARN]: )' at line 1
[20:37:28] [Server thread/WARN]:        at com.mysql.cj.jdbc.exceptions.SQLError.createSQLException(SQLError.java:120)

(
    `Unique` int default 0,
    Total    int default 0
);

How is this wrong

[river oracle]

Spawners have BlockStateMeta

Spawner Blocks have CreatureSpawner BlockSTate

you can do BlockStateMeta#setBlockState
and BlockStateMeta#getBlockState

to change the block states

[worldly ingot]

I don't think domainlogs.? is a valid table name

Unless .? is some weird SQL operator I'm unaware of

[sterile axle]

it is not - you're right, that's invalid

my guess is they're trying to fill the table name via a prepared statement variable injection but that isn't valid for a table name. that makes me extra sus as well because that would almost imply the table name is coming from user input...

[regal scaffold]

event.getPlayer().hasPlayedBefore()
Always returns false. why

[sterile axle]

are you in offline mode

[regal scaffold]

Negative

[worldly ingot]

Where are you running it? ;p

[sterile axle]

(is that still a thing? it breaks in offline right)

[regal scaffold]

PlayerLoginEvent

I believe the player has not been fully loaded yet, right?

And I have to use PlayerJoinEvent

[sterile axle]

hmm

perhaps or try delaying it 1 tick with the scheduler

[regal scaffold]

Hmmmm alright

[jagged monolith]

If you want to get the player before the player logs in, there is the AsyncPlayerPreLoginEvent

[regal scaffold]

Oh

Doesn't help me @jagged monolith

I need access to getHostname()

Only available in PlayerLoginEvent

[sterile axle]

AsyncPlayerPreLoginEvent gives you the InetAddress, which has getHostName

[regal scaffold]

Yeah I just openned the docs and found it

Let me give that a try

But then how do I access hasPlayedBefore?

Get UUID and use getUniqueID()?

[jagged monolith]

Just get the player from the uuid and check the hasPlayedBefore

[sterile axle]

can you get the player from uuid if they're not joined yet? are they in the player list that early?

[regal scaffold]

Can't

Gotta convert uuid to player

[remote swallow]

Wouldnt it just return false if its not in thr list

[jagged monolith]

Player player = Bukkit.getPlayer(event.getUniqueId)

Or something like that. On mobile so... lol

[regal scaffold]

oh

[sterile axle]

That won't work if they're not in the server playerlist yet

we're talking about prelogin

[regal scaffold]

Forgot about that one let me try

Wait

But we're checking about hasPlayedBefore()

[sterile axle]

but try it i guess

[regal scaffold]

Wouldn't they be in the list anyways

If they're connected or not

[sterile axle]

Dunno. You can try. I haven't checked.

[regal scaffold]

Checking rn

[sterile axle]

But methinks no

[jagged monolith]

If it doesn't work, instead of getPlayer use getOfflinePlayer

[regal scaffold]

Might produce NullPointer

There you go

[sterile axle]

getOfflinePlayer may work yes

[regal scaffold]

Ok and lastly before I actually finish my small project with sql injection

How can I set a placeholder to make a table

```CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS domainlogs." + hostname + "\n" +
"(\n" +
" Unique int default 0 null,\n" +
" Total int default 0 null\n" +
");

I wish I could do

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS domainlogs.?
                    "(`Unique` int default 0 null,
                    "Total    int default 0 null
                    ");

[sterile axle]

It is really questionable to create a dynamic table name like that.

[regal scaffold]

Something like that

[sterile axle]

But...sanitize it properly, and use String.format

[regal scaffold]

Yeah Im aware but it's the functionality of my program

Isn't string.format also not safe?

Technically?

[sterile axle]

Ensure that hostname is completely sanitized

Neither is string concatenation

[regal scaffold]

I'm aware xd

[sterile axle]

But String.format is the cleaner way to do it

[regal scaffold]

I wanted placeholder but not possible

[sterile axle]

Just sanitize the input.

[regal scaffold]

Alright will do that thanks

[sterile axle]

Run it through a regex replace to ensure no special chars are in there and stuff, I guess. then I guess it's ok

[regal scaffold]

btw

Copilot

Is actually insane

[sterile axle]

yeah

[regal scaffold]

Flawless

So clean

And so helpfull for single line, it's prediction is out of this world

[sterile axle]

it stands on the shoulders of everyone who commits to github

[regal scaffold]

Amazing

Such a genius idea

Just makes it so much faster

[young nimbus]

Anyone knows whats wrong there?

[sterile axle]

Hover your mouse over the red underlined area and it will tell you.

[young nimbus]

it says remove invalid modifiers on "shortInteger" and Syntax error on token "String", record expected

[sterile axle]

I need to see the surrounding code

[humble tulip]

I think that's eclips being eclipse

[sterile axle]

Paste the file please

[young nimbus]

ughhh eclipse on her days again

[remote swallow]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[young nimbus]

of cours

[humble tulip]

Like why is the semicolon underlined at int seconds =0;

[young nimbus]

https://paste.md-5.net/milekejaci.cpp

so weird

[sterile axle]

Your method is inside of another method

That's not valid Java

[humble tulip]

Oh fuck

[young nimbus]

ohhh

[humble tulip]

Why is the method in a method😂
