sgizkd yiz zse a ClientboundAddPlayerPacket instead?

erm

wouldntt you use a ...

instead of AddEntityPacket?

[eternal night]

make sure to send the update packet first

[sacred prairie]

thanks :D it seems to work but i probably have to send the pose with a packet too

you have to do OnPlayerJoinEvent instead of PlayerJoinEvent because you register a listener and not call an event

[haughty granite]

omg

[sacred prairie]

?

[haughty granite]

it's because I renamed the file several times...

I am too stupid

thanks

[sacred prairie]

ye you have to pas in the class name

[haughty granite]

by emptying the usercache file, it allows me to reset the hasPlayedBefore() ?

[sacred prairie]

idk

[tardy delta]

afaik no

you need to remove files

in world folder

[lethal knoll]

Is there anyone aware of a bug with the Warden entity? I got a plugin that registers UUID of mobs being spawned during a certain period. Then later it uses the remove() on the LivingEntity. All mobs are despawned except for Wardens

[hazy parrot]

its stored in worlds playerdata https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/craftbukkit/browse/src/main/java/org/bukkit/craftbukkit/CraftOfflinePlayer.java#249-251

i mean not stored, but checking if it exist

[lethal knoll]

Is there anyone aware of a bug with the

[drifting viper]

should i use Plugin or JavaPlugin if i want to manage a Plugin

[pseudo hazel]

manage in what way

[drifting viper]

Disbale | Enable | Register Events should generelly use JavaPlugin over Plugin ir not ?

[hazy parrot]

Doesn't really matter, as iirc JavaPlugin is just impl of Plugin

[drifting viper]

are there other impl like KotlinPlugin ?

[rotund ravine]

Heard of Liskovs Subsitution principle.

[hazy parrot]

No?

[rotund ravine]

No, that is not what java stands for.

[river oracle]

KotlinPlugin lol that'd be funny asf

Minecraft Kotlin Edition

[hazy parrot]

It will be more or less same impl anyway lol

[rotund ravine]

It will be the exact same implementation

[river oracle]

Wrong itll look fancier

Cuz the new keywords kotlin has

[drifting viper]

okay guys tanks

[rotund ravine]

Look up "Liskovs Subsitution principle"

[drifting viper]

maybe some day currently watching Better Call Saul

[pseudo hazel]

lol

[frank kettle]

is there a way to see if a block isn't a existing item? like POTATOES is a Material but it's not a real item, the real item is POTATO. same with carrots and so on. so is there a way to check this?

the item doesn't return null but if I tried to place it as an item on a inventory, it's like AIR 🤔 and i want to fix this

[hazy parrot]

isItem() maybe ?

[frank kettle]

😮

didn't know that was a thing, thanks a lot, will try

it works

thank you again

[hazy parrot]

awesome !

[onyx fjord]

can i somehow move file sidebar in IJ to the right side and gradle and other to the left?

[remote swallow]

drag it

[onyx fjord]

oh siht

[eternal night]

[glad prawn]

lol

[onyx fjord]

but cant have gradle and project in the same sidebar split like in vsc

rip

[pseudo hazel]

you mean like visible at the same time?

idk

i use the new ui style but idk if there are any differences on that regard

[remote swallow]

anyone here thats ued github workflows know how i can fix this

workflow https://paste.md-5.net/uxoqikojab.http

[eternal night]

your file has incorrect permissions

usually because you checked it in incorrectly

[onyx fjord]

like one below each other

[remote swallow]

how would i fix it

[onyx fjord]

i also use new ui style btw

[pseudo hazel]

hmm yeah then idk srry

[onyx fjord]

git update-index --chmod=+x path/to/file

[eternal night]

^

average windows user I presume

[onyx fjord]

thank god for the chmod

[remote swallow]

how would i actually do that on the repo

[eternal night]

thank god for the chmod

its a local git commanmd

[onyx fjord]

do it locally and commit

[eternal night]

you commit it ^

[remote swallow]

ah

would i just make path gradlew

[eternal night]

yea ./gradlew

[remote swallow]

same error

[onyx fjord]

can u somehow throw exception with some additional message to it?

[eternal night]

exceptions take messages ?

[onyx fjord]

or i just log severe

shit ur right

based

[remote swallow]

is it possible to make it the workflow use 2 java versions to run buildtools

im guessing something with this

forget i asked

found it on google

[eternal night]

matrix

xD

[shut field]

Cannot open an inventory of type MERCHANT
How do you open a villager inventory for a playuer?

[echo basalt]

you gotta have an entity id and all

and then create an NMS inventory iirc

because events and all

[shut field]

I am doing Bukkit.createInvetory(player, InventoryType.MERCHANT)

[echo basalt]

yeah that won't do

[shut field]

so how do you make an inventor using NMS?

[chrome beacon]

Looks at how villagers open the inventory

[echo basalt]

It's a bit specific

Level nmsWorld = ...;
Player nmsPlayer = ...;

Villager villager = new Villager(EntityType.VILLAGER, nmsWorld);
villager.setVillagerData(new VillagerData(VillagerType.PLAINS, VillagerProfession.FARMER, 5));
villager.setOffers(new MerchantOffers());
villager.getOffers().add(new MerchantOffer(new ItemStack(Items.EMERALD, 1), new ItemStack(Items.DIAMOND, 1), 1, 1, 1));

villager.openTradingScreen(nmsPlayer, new TextComponent("Test"), 1);

remapped

[shut field]

interesting

thanks

[haughty granite]

thank u

hmmm what does that mean?

ooh I cant send photos

int pageNum = 0;
         if (this.getConfig() != null) {
           for (String page :  this.getConfig().getConfigurationSection("book.pages").getKeys(false)) {

             }
           }

[remote swallow]

that is a bad way to add pages

just make the config section a string list

then add that string to a page

it auto formats it

[quaint mantle]

but I want to control the content in each page

[remote swallow]

you do

by 1 string

not 100's

[quaint mantle]

hmm

can I use \n then?

[remote swallow]

why would you need that

[quaint mantle]

new line

[remote swallow]

yeah but why

[quaint mantle]

Hi my name is 7wdev.

my age is 5555555.

ip: 77777777.

imagine all of that in one line*

[quiet ice]

Just split on \n if it need to be configurable

[quaint mantle]

using a single string should fix the nbt tag thing?

[twilit roost]

How to hide players from TABLisT?

[dim bluff]

Before and after of my code

[quaint mantle]

suspend fun onEnable() thats all

[remote swallow]

@eternal night would you happen to know why i get an error saying that GIT_TOKEN doesnt exist when i pass it in from the env as seen below

[quaint mantle]

is it a secret maybe

idk

[remote swallow]

yeah

[quaint mantle]

https://github.com/Nopock/PluginExample/blob/main/.github/workflows/compile.yml

repo_token: "${{ secrets.TOKEN }}"

mine looks a lil differetnt

I have TOKEN as a repo secrcret

[remote swallow]

wheres the place that you use the secret

[quaint mantle]

• uses: "marvinpinto/action-automatic-releases@latest"
  with:
  repo_token: "${{ secrets.TOKEN }}"
  automatic_release_tag: "latest"
  prerelease: true
  title: "Development Build"
  files: |
  build/libs/*.jar

not same thing but maybe try the ${{ }}

[remote swallow]

already has the ${{}}

[quaint mantle]

you could try putting it in "'s

[remote swallow]

trying now

[dim bluff]

pretty good indeed, too bad he don’t have more videos

[remote swallow]

same error

[sterile token]

Dont you need to use ${secrets.GIT_TOKEN} ?

[remote swallow]

no idea lol

[sterile token]

Atleast that is how maven works

[remote swallow]

ill test it out when the thing im trying now finishes

[toxic haven]

I have my build destination to my server's plugin folder but it doesn't build to that?

[sterile token]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[sterile token]

your pom please

[toxic haven]

ughhh is it find that im using gradle as my project manager bcuz i just switched n don't know if it eve got a pom

[remote swallow]

paste your build.gradle then

[toxic haven]

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

[remote swallow]

easiest way you can build to another location is with gradle shadow

add id "com.github.johnrengelman.shadow" version "7.1.0" to the plugins and create a shadowJar section

shadowJar {
    destinationDirectory = file("path") 
}

[buoyant viper]

now send me the secret .

[remote swallow]

ghp

[buoyant viper]

oh fuck that Idk

i looked at the page for it once and never looked again

[remote swallow]

i hate them too

i dont get it either

[toxic haven]

Hmm, how do people get texture packs to have a different texture if the item has some ID on it?

[remote swallow]

custom model data

https://mcmodels.net/how-to-tutorials/resource-pack-tutorials/what-is-custommodeldata-2/#:~:text=Custom_Model_Data is an numeric NBT,model will be used instead.

[mellow edge]

for now I have made that whenever I click on the text, the command is executed, but is there anything I can do, so I can (on the player text click) run a callback or something, so I don't need to create external commands to run code on clicks

(for now I have: no.setClickEvent(new ClickEvent(ClickEvent.Action.RUN_COMMAND, "/tpadeny"));)

[peak depot]

https://paste.md-5.net/emigadiloc.java why is it in tab p+ but in scoreboard admin (admin is the right one)

[river oracle]

PlayerInteractEvent provides an Action

Just use that

[dim bluff]

org.bukkit.persistence.PersistentDataContainer persist through UUID or through nicknames?

[eternal night]

uuid based

[river oracle]

UUID nothing internally uses name anymore

[twilit roost]

How can I know if World ( name = "arena-100" ) does filter under arena-*?

[dim bluff]

so it's eternal to your account basically?

[eternal night]

as etermal as your inventory is

[dim bluff]

wdym?

[hazy parrot]

yes, its under playerdata file

[eternal night]

so yea, pretty much until the owner yeets your playerdata

[dim bluff]

okay

so it's safe to put non-bought things to a persistent data container?

[eternal night]

I would highly highly recommand storing anything remotely connected to actual financial purchases into a proper database

[dim bluff]

sure, but for non-bought things, is this correct?

[eternal night]

I mean, if you already store bought things in a DB

use the DB

but I guess otherwise it is fine

[river oracle]

I mean I wouldn't replace a db with PDC

[eternal night]

^

its nice for small flags

[dim bluff]

fair enough

[eternal night]

especially things you don't need querying offline

etc

[dim bluff]

like things that don't need a high precision and small tweaks?

[eternal night]

yea, I use it for stuff like settings

worst case it is gone

redo the settings

[dim bluff]

okay

thanks

[peak depot]

anyone?

[buoyant viper]

because... u coded it to be that way?

[peak depot]

no it should be just an A not P+

[buoyant viper]

oh yeah

i can totally read 👍

[pseudo hazel]

well how did you code it then

[mellow edge]

is it even possible?

[peak depot]

idk debugging also says it stops right but its setting to p+

[sullen marlin]

No, unless you mean some library to create a bunch of temporary commands

[mellow edge]

do all plugins function like that?

(creating an external command=

[toxic haven]

When making a command with a lot of args should you use else-ifs or a switch to manage all of those args?

[sullen marlin]

With click events being commands? Yes

[mellow edge]

ok

[sullen marlin]

Switch, map, whatever you feel like

[river oracle]

I use a map

Cuz I'm fucking cool

[buoyant viper]

i create subcommand classes

jk

i just switch() usually

[mellow edge]

I am now following this: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/chat-message-custom-click-event-handle-chat-message-click-callback.587564/ and it's fine, the player won't know that a command exsits if it isn't registererd

[toxic haven]

When I use CommandExecutor it has online player's as the default tab auto-complete how can I disable it?

[sullen marlin]

implement TabExecutor

[onyx fjord]

can i somehow optimize packet sending to player? (to prevent packet spam)

they dont seem to like it when theres too many packets

[chrome beacon]

Send less packets?

[dry yacht]

I once generated UUIDs and added a leading slash to them, stored them in a map with a runnable and intercepted the command in the command preprocess event. That worked well.

[onyx fjord]

im using the bukkit method to send particles

[chrome beacon]

Use less particles

[onyx fjord]

i kinda need the amount of particles im using

[chrome beacon]

Then there's nothing you can do

[vivid skiff]

How can i teleport a player at the center of a chunk?

[drowsy helm]

(chunkX - 1) * 16 + 8

[vivid skiff]

Same with the y? or only the x

[chrome beacon]

Yeah same with z

For Y you probably want the highest block

[vivid skiff]

ok thanks

[onyx fjord]

couldnt you send many particles in one packet?

[serene sigil]

yo can any 1 help me with something?

basically i set the spawn location of a custom world on startup

[rotund ravine]

yes?

?ask

[undone axle]

If you have a question, please just ask it. Don't look for staff or topic experts. Don't ask to ask or ask if people are awake or available. Just ask the question to the channel straight out, and wait patiently for a reply. Make sure you use the right channel regarding the topic of your question. Create a thread in case the channel is already in use!

[serene sigil]

System.out.println(redWorld.setSpawnLocation(new Location(Bukkit.getWorld(REDWORLD), 0.5, redWorld.getHighestBlockYAt(0, 0)+1, 0.5)));

ignore the print

and then i have a command that tps me to the spawn location of that world, it works but it doesnt tp me on the block, instead it tps me to 0, 0

[rotund ravine]

I mean that's what you set?

[serene sigil]

i set 0.5

so it tps me on the block

[rotund ravine]

How are you teleporting

[serene sigil]

Player#teleport(Location)

[rotund ravine]

What location.

[serene sigil]

Bukkit.getWorld(BLUEWORLD).getSpawnLocation();

[rotund ravine]

But, that's blueworld not redworld

[serene sigil]

oh nvm ignore the world names, i have basically the same code for 2 worlds

but thats not the issue

[rotund ravine]

Okay, wahat does getSpawnLocatio nreturn.

[serene sigil]

a Location

[rotund ravine]

What does it hold

when you try to teleport

What is it actually, what is the object inside the location.

What is the object.

Not what class it is

[serene sigil]

the full code:

[rotund ravine]

Print out

spawnlocation

and

show me

[serene sigil]

i did

[rotund ravine]

the output

[serene sigil]

it is 0, 0

[rotund ravine]

Then you didn't set it properly.

[serene sigil]

wdym?

i set a new Location

with 0.5

[rotund ravine]

Set it properly.

[serene sigil]

wdym?

[rotund ravine]

How does you plugin.yml look?

[rotund ravine]

Yeah

When do you load the world?

[serene sigil]

startup but delayed by 1 tick

[rotund ravine]

Delay the spawn setting by another tick

[serene sigil]

so it loads

[rotund ravine]

try that

[serene sigil]

but the thing is that its correctly set, but i think its like casted to an int or sth

so it removed the .5

[rotund ravine]

Maybe, too lazy to look at the stash

[serene sigil]

lol

[bold vessel]

som1 know how to remove the placeholder from the essentials message in chat

[rotund ravine]

Why did you ask in two places?

[toxic haven]

How does the rank prefix have a background?

[buoyant viper]

custom characters + resourcepack

iirc

[toxic haven]

event.getPlayer().getDisplayName() How do I get DisplayName using the maintained method?

[serene sigil]

did u find anything?

[rotund ravine]

I was too lazy so i never opened it.

[serene sigil]

😦

any 1 else?

[remote swallow]

is it deprecated

if yes

[toxic haven]

ye

[remote swallow]

use spigot api

[toxic haven]

ahh aight

[bold vessel]

bc no one respond

[tawdry echo]

someone has an idea for a slightly better system because I don't really like this one at the moment but it works (I think)

    @EventHandler(ignoreCancelled = true)
    void event(InventoryClickEvent event) {
        Player player = (Player) event.getWhoClicked();
        
        if (!event.getInventory().getType().equals(InventoryType.ANVIL))
            return;
        
        if (!Arrays.asList(InventoryAction.PICKUP_ALL, InventoryAction.PLACE_ALL).contains(event.getAction())) {
            event.setResult(Result.DENY);
            player.sendMessage("cancel action");
            return;
        }
            
        if (event.getRawSlot() > 2)
            return;
        
        ItemStack item = event.getCursor();
        if (!item.hasItemMeta())
            return;
        
        ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
        PersistentDataContainer data = meta.getPersistentDataContainer();
        String blockRepair = data.get(new NamespacedKey(main, "block-repair"), PersistentDataType.STRING);

        if (blockRepair != null) {
            event.setResult(Result.DENY);
            player.sendMessage("cancel");
            sendInfo(player, event);
        }
    }

ignore sendInfo method

[dry yacht]

The world's spawn location is a block position, which always floors to an integer. Your floating point values won't persist. If you need floating point values, you gotta store and correlate them to a world externally.

[wet breach]

you could change this to use switch statements

or condense down your if checks

null checks should always be first

[toxic haven]

This is my pom why isn't my project being built to the plugins folder?
https://paste.md-5.net/nilaquyaho.xml

[tawdry echo]

What's you mean about "use switch"

[dry yacht]

That Arrays#asList with it's contains call seems pretty wasteful for a simple check for two values, I'd most definitely get rid of that first. If it would be a long list, you should have it outside of your method to not re-generate it every time, but in this instance, a simple if (!(action == PICKUP_ALL || action == PLACE_ALL)) would suffice. You could also write if(action != PICKUP_ALL && action != PLACE_ALL) due to de-morgan, but that's just taste at this point.

[dry yacht]

ItemStack#hasItemMeta internally just compares the return value against null, so I'd rather do that myself. Just get the meta and return if it's null, rather than to have to generate the meta twice.

🧛‍♂️

[tawdry echo]

everything you wrote I think it was improved but my goal at that moment was to make it work and go to sleep because I'm tired enough but thanks for the advice

[dry yacht]

Well, I thought you asked for improvements? If it works, you don't have to change anything at all. Seemed to me like you wanted to improve your solution.

[maiden thicket]

well i mean

its a maven issue

dont know why ur telling them to go to paper just because they have the api

[tawdry echo]

Goodnight bro

[wet breach]

when you ask for improvements be prepared to hear things you may not like or don't want to do lol

if switch is something new to you

then I recommend you do some research and reading and learn how to use it to understand it. However if your code works and you are happy with it, you don't need to change it

but do remember you did ask for opinions

[dry yacht]

Good night, hope you get the sleep you desperately seem to need! :)

[tawdry echo]

if you know, you can tell me how to do it so as not to exclude all InventoryAction because I have absolutely no idea and now I'm really going to sleep good night

How do I modifiy a packet using protocollib Im trying to modify the Display Name field

        protocolManager.addPacketListener(
            object : PacketAdapter(this, ListenerPriority.HIGHEST, PacketType.Play.Server.PLAYER_INFO) {
                override fun onPacketSending(event: PacketEvent?) {
                    val packet = event?.packet

                    // Change Display Name to UUID.randomUUID() and its the 6th field
                    packet?.playerActions?.write(5, UUID.randomUUID())
                }
            }
        )

I cannot figure out how to change a value ? I dont know how to get an instance of a TFIeld

[onyx fjord]

Good idea is to use wrappers

[quaint mantle]

Wdym

[onyx fjord]

Protocollib has a repo with wrappers for certain packets

To work with them easier

[quaint mantle]

do you know the repo

[onyx fjord]

Google protocollib packet wrappers

[dry yacht]

Do you know by any chance whether protocollib operates on a byte-basis, or whether it accesses fields of packet classes? That would be kinda interesting to know, but I've never worked with it.

[onyx fjord]

Not using protocollib so no idea

[dry yacht]

Oh, lol

[onyx fjord]

To be honest I even prefer nms packets

[dry yacht]

Yeah, same, I appreciate nms classes in general. I still think that operating on the byte layer is optimal, but it requires way too much effort to build properly.

I just noticed that you - in some cases - cannot rely on the field order of getDeclaredFields, which even it's documentation warns about. So it would be funny if they completely rely on that. Seems to work tho.

[buoyant viper]

because nothing here specifies an output directory

Maven doesnt automagically know where your minecraft server is

i wish

[toxic haven]

I did it through IntelliJ as I followed a guide.

[buoyant viper]

Maven package and IntelliJ artifacts arent the same

shouldnt mix the two either

[toxic haven]

ahh

[buoyant viper]

@toxic haven since it looks like ur using the mvn shade plugin, u should probably set outputDirectory in the shade goal configuration

https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-shade-plugin/shade-mojo.html#outputDirectory

[dry yacht]

Not really much info provided. What prevents you from iterating all blocks in 3D space between two coordinates and storing their block state either in a list or persistently somewhere else? You could then always call update on that state and revert to the block at the time of the snapshot.

Not really, at least not if you're operating on a plugin. You could modify the world region binary files directly, but I wouldn't advise such a low-level operation. Otherwise, there aren't really any other choices.

[sterile token]

For none programming question please use #help-server

[bold vessel]

alr mb

[tender shard]

NO

never

https://blog.jeff-media.com/common-maven-questions/

[buoyant viper]

idfk i just copy-paste it from target anyway

[tender shard]

doing it in the shade configuration would break many things, e.g. remapping

[buoyant viper]

just run shade last

[haughty granite]

surely something stupid, but how to have the autocomplete functions of spigot/bukkit on intellij?

I'm using maven and I thought it would automatically import the libraries

I don't even have the autocomplete to create an onCommand()...

[hazy parrot]

If you just start writing on Command(without public boolean), nothing shows up?

[haughty granite]

nothing 😦

[hazy parrot]

Make sure to implement CommandExecutor too

oh I just got it

I had to wait for the indexing that I had not seen

is it possible to change the meta (name, lore, enchant) of an item you hold in your hand?

[rotund ravine]

Ye

[remote swallow]

player.getInventory().getItemInMainHand().getItemMeta

[rotund ravine]

Obv need to set it back etc.

[remote swallow]

yeah

[haughty granite]

but I have to put it back in the inventory?

[rotund ravine]

You shouldn't need to.

[remote swallow]

just back on the item

[haughty granite]

just enough?

[rotund ravine]

Should be

[remote swallow]

should be

[haughty granite]

it is, thank you

how can I accept a sentence in a command to change the name of an item?

like /plugin set name "new name"

[rotund ravine]

If you do not use a command library, you would need to pass the arguments.

[haughty granite]

from argument X I concatenate them?

[remote swallow]

string builder and join them at a space

with the values of the String[]

[haughty granite]

ok I was going in the right direction

ty both

[rotund ravine]

If you want to cheat here is some spoonfed code that you won't understand:

if (parts.length >= 3 && parts[0].equals("set") && parts[1].equals("name")) {
    String nameInQuotes = parts[2].replaceAll("^\"|\"$", "");
}
return true;

Wait nvm that's broken

[haughty granite]

I did that?

[rotund ravine]

Remember indices start at 0

[haughty granite]

yes I have another arg before

[rotund ravine]

Something like this:

if (parts.length >= 3 && parts[0].equals("set") && parts[1].equals("name")) {
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
    for (int i = 2; i < parts.length; i++) {
        if (parts[i].startsWith("\"")) {
            sb.append(parts[i].substring(1));
        } else if (parts[i].endsWith("\"")) {
            sb.append(" ").append(parts[i].substring(0, parts[i].length() - 1));
            break;
        } else {
            sb.append(" ").append(parts[i]);
        }
    }
    String nameInQuotes = sb.toString();
}

[haughty granite]

this is exactly the construction of my command lol

the code is very clean thank you very much

[rotund ravine]

Obv, you can also accept things not in quotes.

[remote swallow]

you can probably make < <= so it works for that 1 extra arg

[haughty granite]

I'm going to have to use it for every modification, might as well make it a utility, right?

[rotund ravine]

Yeah it's a bit too complex to copy and paste it a lot.

[haughty granite]

something to say?

[rotund ravine]

Yeah, looks fine. This i pulled out of my ass to both allow "/plugin set name xxxx" & "/plugim set name "xx xxx""

if (parts.length >= 3 && parts[0].equals("set") && parts[1].equals("name")) {
    String nameInQuotes = "";
    if (parts[2].startsWith("\"")) {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        for (int i = 2; i < parts.length; i++) {
            if (parts[i].startsWith("\"")) {
                sb.append(parts[i].substring(1));
            } else if (parts[i].endsWith("\"")) {
                sb.append(" ").append(parts[i].substring(0, parts[i].length() - 1));
                break;
            } else {
                sb.append(" ").append(parts[i]);
            }
        }
        nameInQuotes = sb.toString();
    } else {
        nameInQuotes = parts[2];
    }
    // Do somethign with the name.
}

Just tinker with this line maybe - 2:

Oh wait

i see what happened

not that line

[haughty granite]

the game does not break the words on the lore of an item, I have no way to change the description via a command?

[rotund ravine]

Hm?

if (parts.length >= 3 && parts[0].equals("set") && parts[1].equals("name")) {
    StringBuilder nameBuilder = new StringBuilder();
    for (int i = 2; i < parts.length; i++) {
        nameBuilder.append(parts[i]);
        if (i < parts.length - 1) {
            nameBuilder.append(" ");
        }
    }
    String name = nameBuilder.toString();
    if (name.startsWith("\"") && name.endsWith("\"")) {
        name = name.substring(1, name.length() - 1);
    }
    return name
}

is there a character limit?

[rotund ravine]

String[] substrings = input.split("\\n");
List<String> result = Arrays.asList(substrings);

[remote swallow]

select it all and just drag ur mouse on and off the message

it breaks my selecting somehow

[haughty granite]

it's all good, just for to insert the sentence in the lore

[rotund ravine]

The description can just be set as the lore.

[rotund ravine]

That's the reason then.

do.

[haughty granite]

yes but maybe I should not do it directly in the utils?

[haughty granite]

I'm stupid, I thought the split was based on the number of words, I c/c ur fx without paying attention, sorry

[rotund ravine]

Do smth like

List<String> result = null;

  result = Arrays.asList(substrings);

return result;

Not based on words.

Something I want to clarify. I'm assuming that you have a config section that is just a normal string. Smth like

section: "My String that I need to\nput on multiple lines."

Is there any reason you can't make it a list?

section:
  - "My String that I need to"
  - "put on multiple lines."

It's fine if you can't or don't want to. I'm just trying to give suggestions here. Because if you did it the second way, you could just call FileConfiguration#getStringList("section") and it would give you your list.

[kind hatch]

You could just do a String#split("\n"). When you use String#split() it removes the characters you provide from the original string. So all you are left with is the sections you want. Then all you would have to do is iterate over the string array and put into a list. Or use Collections#addAll(). Your preference.

String[] message = args[2].split("\n");

List<String> itemDesc = new ArrayList<>();
Collections.addAll(itemDesc, message);

[remote swallow]

i was wondering what that 2nd \ was

[kind hatch]

Oh wait. You'd have to first collect all arguments as a string.

You should be able to do that with String#join()

It looks like you are yes. However, it seems that your method doesn't return the string with the characters that you are trying to split on. It just adds a space between characters.

[haughty granite]

String message = ParsingUtils.parsing(args); returns me this: first\nsecond

[bold vessel]

I rly dont find what i can use instead of the getEconmy

[haughty granite]

you have to use getEconomy()

you have to import your main class at the top of your file

[kind hatch]

Well, you shouldn't have to iterate over the list if you are applying it to an itemstack. You just have to provide it. The formattedMessage list should have the \n characters removed from the strings.

The constructor inside the method 💀

[kind hatch]

What does your code look like now?

[haughty granite]

and it always returns the same: [04:06:50] [Server thread/INFO]: first line\nsecond line

[worldly ingot]

Likely because \n is actually a recognized pattern in RegEx (which #split() accepts, a RegEx pattern) so it's looking for the actual whitespace char rather than \n explicitly

You can fix that by either changing your split to be "\\\n", or just use | to split lines instead like most people do

Also, rather than StringBuilder in your parsing() method, you might find StringJoiner to be a bit nicer to use

StringJoiner joiner = new StringJoiner(" ");
for (int i = 2; i < args.length; i++) {
    joiner.add(args[i]);
}```

[quaint mantle]

Are there are good 1.17 libraries for plugin dev?

[kind hatch]

I can't say I've ever seen anyone use the pipe character to split lines.

[haughty granite]

but why does it work on Shadow and not on me?

[worldly ingot]

Literally Essentials does it

[kind hatch]

Tf? lmao

[haughty granite]

essentials 😦

[worldly ingot]

It has a /lore command iirc that does use the pipe symbol

[kind hatch]

Lol, that's news to me. I've always used EpicRename if I wanted to set lore on things.

[worldly ingot]

That's the most Minecraft plugin-y name I've ever heard

[remote swallow]

i name all of my plugins EpicNAME normally

because Epic is my name

[haughty granite]

epicpicpic

[glad prawn]

EpicRareLegendary

[worldly ingot]

Sylfaen, I can also get it to work just with this small test snippet

String[] input = { "first", "line\nsecond", "line" };
String message = String.join(" ", input);

System.out.println(Arrays.toString(message.split("\n")));```
So I'm not sure why it's not working for you. Though I would still advise either using a pipe symbol or changing your split to be `"\\\n"` instead, because that also works and is probably a lot safer

It might even just be a platform-dependent thing

But \\\n will guarantee you that you're removing \n as a literal rather than the whitespace char

[haughty granite]

[04:21:44] [Server thread/INFO]: [first line, second line] 🥹

[vagrant stratus]

Is there a good util which converts seconds, minutes, etc to ticks and vise versa?
I'm like 99% sure I screwed up the conversion so I might as well use a util if one already exists lmao

[frank kettle]

Why do u need a util for that? Isn't it just 20 ticks per second?

(Minutes * 60 + seconds) * 20L?

🤔

[vagrant stratus]

I fucked up the math majorly lmao

there was one that I used previously which also converted it to hh:mm:ss format, but I don't have that class anymore lol

[frank kettle]

I usually just make my own.

Like

Minutes = 0
Hours = 0
while (seconds > 60) {
  Minutes++;
  Seconds -= 60
}
While (minutes > 60) {
  Hours++;
  Minutes -= 60;
}
String time = hours + "h:" + minutes + "m:" + seconds "s"```

🤔

[drowsy helm]

why while loop lol

wastes so many cycles

[frank kettle]

Well, u could make math for it but sometimes the time isn't enough for hours or minutes

[river oracle]

Do you even need loops I've achieved this same thing o(1)

[frank kettle]

Unless u want to check with a if

Idk, that's how I been doing and never gave problems 🤔

[drowsy helm]

its not about problemse

its just inefficient

thats an o(n) solution

[frank kettle]

I'm lazy to fix things that don't need a fix

🗿🍷

[drowsy helm]

fair

[warm light]

I am thinking about a problem for 2 days but no solution came in mind.

I have a plugin A and I have an Addonloader on plugin A
which use bukkit plugin loader(basically load spigot plugins as my plugin's addon from datafolder)

now one of my addon(named it** B**) need plugin C to run. but plugin C isn't in soft/depend list of plugin A. as a result, C load before A & Addon B don't work.

how can I fix it?

[vagrant stratus]

Yea, the one I used did all the math for converting back and forth, as well as converting it into a neat {0} hours, {0} minutes, {0} seconds format or something along those lines

[frank kettle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/plugin-yml/

[drowsy helm]

theres a loadbefore option

[drowsy helm]

doesn't necessarily have to be a depend

[frank kettle]

Isn't this what you need?

Well, won't depend make it so your plugin loads after those in the list?

[drowsy helm]

he said C isnt a depend

wait why not make it a soft depend?

is there a reason

[frank kettle]

But why isn't it?

[warm light]

Don't want to add depend as it will not be a solution. plugin A & its addon B made by me. so I can easily add all depends on main plugin's depend list

but what if another developer create any addon of my plugin? he can't modify my plugin(A)

[warm light]

.

[drowsy helm]

oh

then your addon should depend A

then register through api

if thats the case

[warm light]

but A can still load before the depends

[frank kettle]

Any addon of a plugin should depend of the main plugin

[drowsy helm]

B should depend C & A

then it will load after all of it

[frank kettle]

If your plugin depends of another plugin then make it a depend 💀 and then make your addons depend on your plugin

[warm light]

here is the loader

[frank kettle]

I never needed to use depend but if something needs to depend on other things then depending has to be depended for it to depend, u feel me?

[warm light]

main plugin don't need any depend. but its addons need

[drowsy helm]

I dont see the problem then?

plugin C can load at any time

if B is being loaded after the fact

[frank kettle]

He said C uses its main plugin and another plugin

Why not depend on both plugins if requires both?

[drowsy helm]

if A requires C then it should be a depend

or softdepend if not always used

[frank kettle]

Then add depends on the addons like we have said already 🤣

What's the issue with depend, have you tried?

[warm light]

A = my plugin plugin (It don't need anything to run)
B = addon of A (it need A ofc. also C)
C = a random plugin

[frank kettle]

Then add depend for both A and C

[drowsy helm]

like i said B should depend A & C

[warm light]

but addons get loaded when plugin A enable

[frank kettle]

What's the issue?

Why is your plugin A enabling others?

Plugin.yml will load the plugins correctly and with its own depends

If not, then you make your own code to check plugin.yml of your addons and check if they have any depend and load it's depends 💀 idk how that works but sounds like a mess

Why are you even loading your addons on your plugin instead of letting it load by itself?

[warm light]

it register discord slash command on main plugin. so need to load with main plugin

[drowsy helm]

to look cool

[frank kettle]

Why don't you check after few seconds if addon is loaded and so register the slash command?

[frank kettle]

If something is giving problems, then it needs fixing and sometimes to fix you gotta change the way you are making thinks.
🗿🍷

Can't you make a API on the main plugin to register slash commands and then on the addon use that to connect with the discord bot and register the commands? And use depend on the addon

It feels like you are connecting them already in some way anyways, why not make the addon itself register the command.

[buoyant viper]

?jd-s for me

[undone axle]

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

[wet breach]

it would be impossible for addon plugins to load before your addonloader plugin

when create an addon loader, instead of the plugins depending on spigot API they depend on your loader plugin instead

the caveat of this, is that your addon loader needs to now re-expose spigot API as it can't be seen

[torn shuttle]

man working with shader code is wicked fun

[green prism]

How can I make a 1.8/1.19 compatible plug-in?

[chrome beacon]

Depend on 1.8

[green prism]

wdym

[chrome beacon]

Write your code for the 1.8 api

And set api version to 1.13 in plugin.yml

[green prism]

I was looking at this plugin https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/kitpvp-1-8-1-19-custom-kits-leaderboards-gui-levels-kill-streaks-abilities-more.27107/?__cf_chl_tk=7cIWrMUVdH4KPQH5L_2tNgp1gB0iDuPAllUaoKjJ1Zc-1675329571-0-gaNycGzNCFE
Inside its code there isn't any reflection. It is compiled with java 15.0.2 and should be compatible with both 1.8 and 1.19

[rough drift]

yes

use

the

1.8 api

[green prism]

woah

[rough drift]

no need for reflection

[green prism]

Thank y'all

wait, what java version should I use?

[chrome beacon]

8

[rough drift]

java 8

ofc

[green prism]

you're amazing guys, thank you 🙂

[green prism]

Works! :))

[restive elm]

Im making custom resourcepack that displays server's gold

.../textures/gui/gold.json

{
  "format_version": "1.14.0",
  "elements": [
    {
      "type": "icon",
      "x": 800,
      "y": 20,
      "width": 32,
      "height": 32,
      "icon": "textures/gui/icons/money_icon.png",
      "scale": 1
    },
    {
      "type": "label",
      "x": 836,
      "y": 20,
      "width": 64,
      "height": 32,
      "text": "${money_amount}",
      "scale": 1
    }
  ]
}

How do i update resourcepack every time gold change?
ChatGPT said i shuold use packet but i couldn't find way in 1.19

[rough drift]

why use a packet?!

[restive elm]

is there any way?

[rough drift]

What are you even doing

Just use a font character

and send that

search up on how to make custom font characters, then send that character

for example, if you bind the image to \uE000 if you just send players \uE000 trough a plugin and they have the res pack, they'll see the icon

Then it's up to you where you display it

[hollow beacon]

using this pom.xml:

<dependency>
            <groupId>net.coobird</groupId>
            <artifactId>thumbnailator</artifactId>
            <version>0.4.19</version>
            <exclusions>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>net.coobird</groupId>
                    <artifactId>javadoc</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
            </exclusions>
        </dependency>

my exclusion doesn't work (screenshot coming)

anyone knows why not?

[hazy parrot]

You can't just exclude package like that

[hollow beacon]

how can I? 😄

interestingly the maven also compiles another plugin of mine with it

there is no trace of the plugin to be found

nvm its the decomiler

[torn shuttle]

anyone with experience handling enchanted books, am I wrong in believing that enchanted books are books which are actually enchanted with the enchantment they contain?

[echo basalt]

enchanted books are a separate material

but yes they're enchanted

you can hit someone with a fire aspect book and they'll catch on fire

[chrome beacon]

Ouch that would cause a loading screen every gold change

[rough drift]

Given an arbitrary Listener class, can I "pre-process" the listener's events? (Such as changing data and the likes), or do I have to handle event registering on my own?

?stash

[undone axle]

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

[torn shuttle]

can I test this with you irl?

[echo basalt]

I'd like to test my sharpness 15 knife

so sure

[torn shuttle]

what are you, british?

[hollow beacon]

anyone can help me? 😄

[echo basalt]

wagwan

[torn shuttle]

man I should've rewritten the enchantment system I made 5 years ago a long time ago

[restive elm]

yes so the openAI said to use the packet instead changing resource pack every time

but in AI's knowledge, it's stopped to 2021

and i couldn't search way in 1.19.3

[chrome beacon]

A packet won't magically remove the need for the loading screen

If so why would you even have loading screens in the first place

[restive elm]

i mean ai said use packet to give new data to player's resourcepack

[chrome beacon]

Which would cause a loading screen

Since it needs to reload all resources

[hollow beacon]

but the ai said so

[restive elm]

well

Here's a high-level overview of the steps involved in sending packets in Minecraft:

Obtain a reference to the player's connection.
Create a new packet object with the updated money amount.
Write the data for the packet to a ByteBuf using an appropriate protocol encoding.
Send the packet to the player's connection using the player's connection's sendPacket method.

[restive elm]

ai said ^

[hollow beacon]

yes we know but it will still load

[restive elm]

oh

then how the servers implement that?

[rotund ravine]

It won’t

[restive elm]

i can screenshare

(i tried putting screenshot here)

[hollow beacon]

i suppose they already have all textures loaded?

[rotund ravine]

It is wrong.

[chrome beacon]

They have loading screens once and then they do what IkeVoodo said

[restive elm]

ohh what's the correct way?

[restive elm]

wym?

[chrome beacon]

The way IkeVoodo told you

[restive elm]

ohh i just found this

Then we don't need resourcepack?

since it's custom character

but if i wanna display a number, should i make each fonts for each numbers?

[icy beacon]

how do I move a player to the bottom of the tablist? is there an api method or a packet for it?

[chrome beacon]

Use teams

[icy beacon]

oh that could help yeah

with the name like "ZZZZZZ" or something?

for it to be the lsat

last*

[chrome beacon]

You need the resourcepack to load the custom characters

[restive elm]

ah also how do you display numbers next to that character(icon)?

1️⃣ should i make each number's font?
2️⃣ should i use action bar and create cusotm text for it?

[green prism]

How can I detect from the EntityDamageByEntityEvent, if the damage is going to cause the death?

[icy beacon]

check if damage is higher than entity health

[eternal oxide]

final damage

[icy beacon]

yep

raw damage does not account for modifiers like armor and potions afaik

[green prism]

ty Elgar

[vale ember]

is listening to chunk load event, going through all entities and removing ones with PDC too performance heavy?

[hollow beacon]

shouldn't be

[vale ember]

ok thanks

[eternal oxide]

You may find entites at chunk load will not actually be loaded

[restive elm]

^

[sonic sparrow]

Is it possible to use a custom jar with specialsource-maven-plugin? Build tools doesnt have the proper mappings that my jar has, how can i go about getting the proper mappings passed through the maven plugin

[eternal oxide]

?nms

[undone axle]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/nms-use-mojang-mappings-for-your-spigot-plugins/

[warm light]

is it possible to hide code but only allow to download Releases in github?

[sonic sparrow]

Sorry if my previous message is not clear, but I have a modified spigot that has mappings that build tools does not map for me. I have source for my spigot and would like to know how to make it use my custom jars mappings

Specifically want to know what I need to add to my local maven repo in order for my custom jar mappings to work with the maven plugin

[hazy parrot]

What is the point of having it on gh then

[dry yacht]

I don't think you can control access on that granular level, no. You'd have to push the build results somewhere else. Or have a proxy which is trusted on the repo and relays calls to the downloads. But well, at that point you already need a server.

[vocal cloud]

The only way to really do that is use an authenticated API to reflect the classes in on runtime but not only is that still exploitable but it's a lot of work

[vale ember]

Why does it happen so that if i unload and then load again a chunk with certain entity that i have a field with, i am no longer able to teleport or remove it?

and how can i fix it?

[wet breach]

Yes

you need a private repo

and then if you want a place to distribute binaries easily could just store them in your github page repo

think that accomplishes what you are possibly asking?

[icy monolith]

        Player victim = event.getPlayer();
        Player killer = victim.getKiller();
        
        if (!(killer instanceof Player)) {
            return;
        }
        if (!(victim instanceof Player)) {
            return;
        }
        victim.setHealth(victim.getHealth() - 1);
        killer.setHealth(killer.getHealth() + 1);
    }
}```
Does any one know which one of these are more efficient
```java
        Player victim = event.getPlayer();
        Player killer = victim.getKiller();

        if (killer instanceof Player) {
            if (victim instanceof Player) {
                victim.setHealth(victim.getHealth() - 1);
                killer.setHealth(killer.getHealth() + 1);
            }
        }
    }```

which way of making my code would be more efficient/better

[rotund ravine]

Why?

You don’t need that many nests tho.

[icy monolith]

&& ?

        Player victim = event.getPlayer();
        Player killer = victim.getKiller();

        if (!(killer instanceof Player) && !(victim instanceof Player)) {
            return;
        }
        victim.setHealth(victim.getHealth() - 1);
        killer.setHealth(killer.getHealth() + 1);
    }
}```
Like this ig

[dry yacht]

What? Why would you ever join two separate if statements? That's just not gonna add to readability nor efficiency.

[quaint mantle]

is there a way to uniquely identify a spigot server on the internet, like a value that you cant manipulate or clone and that is unique for every server ?

i read about server uuids but you can change the vlaue from settings.yml

[hasty prawn]

Why tho

[quaint mantle]

need to identify different instances because the servers are going to connect to an api and some sockets

and i need to know which one is which

[hasty prawn]

If you control the api/sockets and what the server sends, just give them a unique ID and have them send it

[spice shoal]

there is a method to play effect of totem with custom model data?

[indigo sage]

Is it not possible to use PlayerDeathEvent or something like that?

[dry yacht]

Have you ensured that your ServerMapRenderer is actually instantiated and rendering? Have you printed the map IDs of the item and the renderer? Are they the same?

[quaint mantle]

im afraid my java plugin could get easily reverse engineered and decompiled to send cloned IDs

[hasty prawn]

Why would that matter at all

They could do that with any method you use

[quaint mantle]

i am making a licensing system

[echo basalt]

those only delay the inevitable

[quaint mantle]

plugins are interfacing with an api that checks if they have a valid subscription

[dry yacht]

The combination of the host's public IP as well as the socket's listening port should be unique, I'd say. With the IP you're unique to the machine, with the port unique to the process.

[hasty prawn]

You can't even put plugins like that on Spigot

[quaint mantle]

actually clever

[quaint mantle]

never said i was going to

[echo basalt]

mac address + subnet?

[hasty prawn]

I know, I'm just saying.

[echo basalt]

actually no just heavily obfuscate some uuid provided by your server

[quaint mantle]

the plugins call an express restful api so i dont think i can retrieve the mac adress from the request, probably only the ip and port, and even then they could use a reverse proxy or vpn to change it

[dry yacht]

You're gonna have to call some public IP API and check the socket's port yourself. You can still probably intercept networking and spoof these values.

[dry yacht]

MAC is way too easy to spoof, you gotta at least make it hard for them.

[spice shoal]

.

[quaint mantle]

you mean validating the ip and port combination with an ip api ?

i thought of session-based authentication aswell, with each session being a socket connection and upon disconnection the server sends a fresh session id that will beused by the server to start up next time

upon disconnection the current session id is discarded and a fresh one is fetched

[dry yacht]

Well, you're not gonna have easy access to the public IP otherwise. You need to make a call to an external host which can then tell you your public IP. And the port is only local, so you need to check the netty socket for that. Those ports are usually mapped somewhere, like for networks and the like.

[quaint mantle]

req.connection.remoteAddress
req.connection.remotePort
req.connection.localAddress
req.connection.localPort

can i use this ? or is it spoofable

[dry yacht]

A bit more context wouldn't hurt. What's req?

[spice shoal]

wdym?

[remote swallow]

you can probably create a totem, with the data, and damage them to cause it to play

[quaint mantle]

oh sorry lol, req is the request object containing the request data received upon an api call

it is syntax for express.js

[dry yacht]

Oh, you're talking about hosting your own public IP getter service? Well, then that's safe, as there's nobody to spoof it but yourself, xD

[quaint mantle]

like :

app.get('/', function (req, res) {
  res.send('hello world')
})```

res is the response object

[spice shoal]

so , i give it to a player and damage the player?

[quaint mantle]

client-side , can't they manipulate the ip and port they make the request with ?

[remote swallow]

im guessing so

[dry yacht]

Clientside what? You're not trying to host that express server in the plugin, are you?

[wet breach]

you do realize that so as long as you are using java

there is literally nothing you can do about reverse engineering nor preventing false data from being sent by it

you can't even accurately tell from Java if something is actually spoofed or not from the host because if there is anything the application should do is trust the host, and well it can't do much if the host decides to give it false data

[quaint mantle]

the express server is an api i am hosting publicly for everybody, the clients need to perform certain calls to retrieve some data, but i want to know which server is requesting the data, because each server owner needs to have an account with a subscription (already handled all of the payment stuff and the authentication stuff). All i need now is a way of knowing who exactly is requesting the stuff

[chrome beacon]

Then just give each server an API key or smth?

[wet breach]

if you have a rest api, implement tokens, each server has their own unique token specific to them

[quaint mantle]

that way one user could buy the resource and share the api key with all of their friends

[dry yacht]

You have these problems with every language on every system. Licensing-Systems don't work in general, but if somebody still wants to implement them, I'd say that it's up to them to invest the work.

[chrome beacon]

You can track the ips of the requests and limit them

[quaint mantle]

we came to the conclusion that it might not be optimal, i cant exactly retrieve the right ip:port

[dry yacht]

Then you just find out your socket port and add it to the request you make to your express server. The express server then has the port and the public IP (you cannot spoof, as your provider ensures that) and you can identify the host that way.

[wet breach]

and how does your system stop someone from distributing it themselves vs this?

what are you trying to do prevent piracy of your plugin?

if that is the case you simply can't

[quaint mantle]

yes

[spice shoal]

like this??

SpigotUtils.spigotCommand("o give " + p.getName() + " totem_discord" ); p.damage(Double.parseDouble("20"));

[wet breach]

your licensing doesn't address if I decide to host your plugin somewhere for people to download

[quaint mantle]

what do you mean by socket port ? sorry for the confusion

[wet breach]

it also doesn't address if I just privately give it to someone else

[quaint mantle]

im not scared of people decompiling my plugin

[remote swallow]

if that gives that totem, set it the item there holding to it

wont do anything otherwise

[quaint mantle]

as my plugin only works if it can connect to this api and some sockets that make it actually work

[dry yacht]

The port of the mincraft server socket. That's just relevant if you also want to identify multiple servers on the same host.

[wet breach]

doubt it

you are telling me I couldn't fool your plugin?

into thinking it connected to where it thought it should

what stops me from using the plugin legitimately to pull the data it so call needs and save it for later?

[quaint mantle]

thats the goal, yes

[spice shoal]

so , i need to force a slot/offhand?

[wet breach]

it is impossible to make a plugin that can't accept spoofed data

[quaint mantle]

because the data is subject to dynamic updates, the plugin i have in mind is something really cool and ive never seen it anywhere else lol

[wet breach]

especially with java

[wet breach]

bet you I have

and there is probably a reason you haven't

[quaint mantle]

good for you pal

[wet breach]

bad for you

stop thinking you have this fool proof method for java

you are not the first you know

and obviously not the last to go down this road

[remote swallow]

yeah

[quaint mantle]

brodie ate bread and frustration for breakfast

[quaint mantle]

i actually give zero fucks about your little ego

[wet breach]

Anyways good luck to your supposed fool proof method. I am sure if there was one, it would be used already 😛

[quaint mantle]

change your tone as you are speaking to someone that is being respectful towards you

[wet breach]

no

[river oracle]

Are you adding drm

[rotund ravine]

@worldly ingot

[quaint mantle]

then go speak to somebody else or perhaps a friend if you happen to have one

[wet breach]

Basically

[river oracle]

I love fiddling around with that stuff

[wet breach]

yeah whatever DRM they come up with Java will be defeated in just a few seconds

[river oracle]

This reminds me I want to learn bytecode manipulation stuff

[wet breach]

remember that one kid?

that asked us to defeat their DRM XD

[river oracle]

Oh yeah lmao

Isn't there a whole spigot thread on that still

[wet breach]

think so

[quaint mantle]

the thing is that you guys know nothing about what project i have in mind but the ego in the developing community is insane

good lord yall need to speak with more people irl 💀

[river oracle]

There's no ego its just going to be cracked

I mean I'm not being rude I'm just stating an eventuality

[wet breach]

don't need to. If it involves DRM there is literally nothing you can do that will be fool proof. We are not all kids here and some of us have been using Java since its release

[quaint mantle]

im talking about the way frostalf was talking to me, as if he knew it all lol

[wet breach]

but do let me know if you find some hidden setting in Java that would allow for an uncrackable DRM

[quaint mantle]

not drm

[wet breach]

only other thing would be SaaS

which you are going to have to address a MITM

have fun with that one

[quaint mantle]

a man in the middle for a saas spigot plugin ?

[spice shoal]

how i can set my item?

p.getInventory().setItemInOffHand(?);

[wet breach]

basically the middle person is the legitimate user requesting on behalf of those that want the data

[river oracle]

Iirc you just gotta use the slot number I forget what it is but there are charts online with a full set of slot numbers for player inventories

[remote swallow]

make the item yourself

[wet breach]

I think a thing that would be closer in terms would be a proxy

[quaint mantle]

each user has data that is managed by the user itself on a web dashboard, i dont see why an user would like to send that data to other users that are now forced into using that user's specific data

[worldly ingot]

If you're planning on using DRM on Spigot, stop trying lol

We'll insta-reject or insta-delete anything that gets reported
