[rare rover]

yes but they aren't all separate plugins

they are 1

[lost matrix]

Doesnt matter. EproCommon is also not a plugin.

[rare rover]

so which one is the main thingy

[lost matrix]

What are you trying to do?

[sterile token]

`--> Master (Parent)
--> Master-API
- src
- pom.xml
--> Master-Core
- src
- pom.xml

• pom.xml`

there you have a more clarify example

[rare rover]

im trying to make nms in each module aka 1 class that contains all the version nms that is implemented into the main module

[sterile token]

If you see the parent, doesnt contain any src folder

[sterile token]

So there you need 3 modules

[rare rover]

yes

[sterile token]

and then each module per nms implementaiton

[rare rover]

yep

[sterile token]

take i ncare what i sent on top

[sterile token]

here

Care that parent module, doesnt contain any src folder nor any code

[lost matrix]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/maven-nms-tutorial.347254/

Bit outdated but the core concept is the same

[rare rover]

okay i'll check that out

but like im still a bit confused, since like will they all act the same with each one having an onEnable function that all run at the same time or is there a main one that only runs?

[lost matrix]

Only one needs an onEnable method.

The others are all shaded into the main project

[rare rover]

alrighty

i'll look at that resource and see if i can figure it out

[worldly ingot]

Remember when I said Maven modules are basically just subprojects?

[rare rover]

yep

[worldly ingot]

One project is nothing but utilities, classes, interfaces, etc., the other is an actual Bukkit plugin that extends JavaPlugin and whatnot

Or however you want to structure it

[lost matrix]

Its a pretty advanced topic. You basically need to define a bunch of Interfaces in your main project and
every module needs to provide an implementation. Like CraftBukkit provides an implementation for Spigot interfaces.

[rare rover]

okay but if the main src is removed which one would be the main one? That's all

[worldly ingot]

Both subprojects get built

They each get their own .jar

The parent project is empty. It's kind of like a dummy project that you can target build commands with to build all of its child projects

[rare rover]

oh okay

is there a way to make them all 1 .jar?

[worldly ingot]

Well you would shade one project into another, then the one that was shaded contains both

It's like when you shade in some other dependency from Maven central, only that dependency is the other module instead

[rare rover]

ahh

so i found this: https://github.com/DRE2N/ItemStackLib

which has multi maven projects

ohh i see now

the first pom is just a dummy for all the modules

[worldly ingot]

And a common dependency for all the modules

[rare rover]

so which one would have the onEnable?

im guessing core

[worldly ingot]

Yes

[rare rover]

but this is all it has?

[worldly ingot]

That one's a bit of a bad example because it's a library, not actually a plugin lol

[rare rover]

which none of the classes extends JavaPlugin

[rare rover]

ahhh

[worldly ingot]

In theory, if it were a plugin, that core module would probably have a JavaPlugin class in it

Here, https://github.com/2008Choco/VeinMiner/

This uses Gradle but it's a similar concept

[rare rover]

so technically, the first pom has every module which gets run? And then which ever one has the paper / spigot dependency and the JavaPlugin class will be the main?

[worldly ingot]

Well, "main", yeah

You'll notice this "dist" module depends on all of the modules in that project, https://github.com/DRE2N/ItemStackLib/blob/master/dist/pom.xml

Then just shades them

[rare rover]

wait so instead of my making a paper project i make a "New Project?" and then add the paper on later?

[worldly ingot]

Your parent project is just a regular ole Maven project, yeah

You could include the Bukkit/Spigot/Paper/Whatever dependency in your parent pom.xml though because I'm sure your API and plugin will both use it

[rare rover]

okay so like this?

[worldly ingot]

Yep, and that Core would be your JavaPlugin class

Then you could create another module called API, and have your Core module's pom.xml depend on your API module. Then add Maven Shade

(https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-shade-plugin/usage.html)

[rare rover]

?

!paste

oop

okay so

Main: https://pastebin.com/9HxxmVga
Core: https://pastebin.com/xhUTQ4xH

[worldly ingot]

The <parent> part is wrong if I'm not mistaken

    <parent>
        <groupId>me.outspending</groupId>
        <artifactId>core</artifactId>
        <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
    </parent>```

[rare rover]

yeah i see it now

[worldly ingot]

Shouldn't this be

    <groupId>org.example</groupId>
    <artifactId>PaperTesting</artifactId>
    <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>```

[rare rover]

hmm

why would it be "org.example"?

it fixed it but why

[lost matrix]

https://tenor.com/view/chicken-say-what-look-glare-cartoon-gif-17244555

<artifactId>PaperTesting</artifactId>

[rare rover]

well now how would this work?

still dont understand why its "org.example"

( this is another module )

[lost matrix]

It needs to be the group and artifactId of your parent project ofc...

[rare rover]

heh?

i must be missing something

[lost matrix]

This pom

[rare rover]

there is no "org.example"

yes

ohhh

[lost matrix]

ok

[rare rover]

but like

how

[lost matrix]

Show your 3 poms

[rare rover]

this is in the Testing module

alr one sec

Main: https://pastebin.com/2fBg7RQT
Core: https://pastebin.com/rYQ4a8sc
Testing: https://pastebin.com/cfp3LG84

[rare rover]

ohh im so dumb

[lost matrix]

This is inside your Main. Core and Testing need to define this as paren

Your Main pom should look like this

And your children only need to define another artifactId:

[rare rover]

wait so, how would i implement the Testing into the Core?

this is in Core

[lost matrix]

Core can depend on Testing

Just like usual

[rare rover]

huh?

[lost matrix]

I dont know the purpose of Core and Testing so i dont know where you are having difficulties right now

[rare rover]

it just ain't adding the dependancy

i need the things from Testing in Core

[lost matrix]

If you want to achieve a moduled nms setup then your Core never depends on any other module.

[rare rover]

then what should i do? Since im adding each nms version in a seperate module

then having a class that implements a interface

from API

( another module )

[lost matrix]

Ok then Core only depends on API
And every implementation module depends on API

[rare rover]

yes

[lost matrix]

Then you need another module named Distribution which depends on
all modules and throws everything into one jar file

[rare rover]

but how would i implement the things from another module to another

[lost matrix]

*But has no code in it

[rare rover]

this is so confusing, how would it throw everything into one jar while without any code? Couldn't i just implement everything into Core then put code in there?

[lost matrix]

API defines the interfaces. Core uses those interfaces (But it never knows the implementation)
And the implementation modules each just implement all interfaces of API

[lost matrix]

You will have a gargantuan mess then

[rare rover]

okay, but how do i use things from another module ;-;

[lost matrix]

Concrete example please

Which module needs to "use things" from another module

[rare rover]

well, if i need the access the interfaces from API how would i access them in Core?

because the dependency wont work

[lost matrix]

Core depends on API. Just add it in your pom

As a dependency

[rare rover]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh

couldn't thank you enough, sorry for taking your time

just some more practice and i should be good now i know the template

okay one more thing, how would i exactly put it all into 1 jar?

😅

[lost matrix]

Extra module -> only has a pom which uses the maven shade plugin to throw all other modules into one jar

https://github.com/DRE2N/ItemStackLib

Click on the dist module

And then the pom

[rare rover]

so would that implement all code into that 1 jar?

[worldly ingot]

Yes. It shades everything into it

[rare rover]

ohhh, okay

my last question 😅

[worldly ingot]

Not entirely sure why they did that tbh. They could have done exactly that in the core one lol

[lost matrix]

Yeah

[rare rover]

my Core has the paper dependency so that means whenever i run the plugin that would be the main?

i removed the paper dependency from Testing

[worldly ingot]

There's really no concept of "main". They're all separate projects

[lost matrix]

Well... Then you clutter your classpath in the core with all the implementations

[rare rover]

let me reword it, Core has the onEnable method which means that would be ran?

[worldly ingot]

Yeah the built .jar file would contain it

[lost matrix]

You could put your onEnable wherever you wanted. It depends on what the plugin.yml says.
But yes. Your Core should contain the JavaPlugin class and all the logic for your plugin.

[rare rover]

okay

and i got this

i added the dist

which adds everything together

but it broke

it should have been found?

[worldly ingot]

tbqh I'd personally not have a dist module lol. I think it's a bit silly

[worldly ingot]

Unless you really care about this. Though I don't think it matters

[rare rover]

meh, but why isn't it found?

[worldly ingot]

You probably just haven't built the dependency first. You would have to depend (and install) the -testing artifact

mvn clean install will install it to your local repo, then you can build the other project that depends on it

Order matters there

[sterile token]

Okay definitly i cant figure how to save the items💀

[rare rover]

ty kind sir

okay so this jar should contain everything?

let me try to run it rq

[worldly ingot]

It should, yes. You could open it up with an archive viewer like 7zip or winrar and see the class files to double check

Or, yeah, just try and run it lol

[sterile token]

This is giving a null excpetion

when saving the items

[lost matrix]

?npe

[undone axle]

The NullPointerException, (commonly referred to as NPE), is thrown in the following cases, but not sealed to: 1. null is passed into a method or constructor which does not allow it; 2. When trying to access a field on an object pointing to null; 3. Casting null to a primitive. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/3988794/17047120 for information on how to debug NPEs.

[sterile token]

Hmn

I know how npe works

[lost matrix]

😄 Recently learned about this

[sterile token]

But i cant understand the why i just want to fix this shit

[lost matrix]

Inventories can contain null values for empty slots

[sterile token]

haha

right

so i would check for null before

[lost matrix]

Yes

[sterile token]

okay im hopping i fix this

😬

[winged anvil]

anyone here use neovim as their primary ide ?

lmao

help

[lost matrix]

Mysterious

[rare rover]

oh wait

[lost matrix]

What could this stack trace mean?

[rare rover]

yeah

[lost matrix]

^^

[rare rover]

but it does contain plugin.yml

...

where do i need to put it then?

[lost matrix]

Probably nobody... Spigot is mainly Jetbrains teritory.

[winged anvil]

i’ll be the first

[lost matrix]

Look into your compiled jar and see if the plugin.yml is in there

[rare rover]

hmm

💀

doesn't have anything

[lost matrix]

Also make sure your build section has the resources entry

[rare rover]

this is the dist pom

[lost matrix]

The Core pom

[sterile token]

Nop smile

[sterile token]

till same issue, items are not getting saved, but now without NPE

[lost matrix]

Oh i see. You are missing the maven shade plugin

[rare rover]

in the main pom?

or all

[lost matrix]

only the dist

[rare rover]

ahhhhh

all poms need the shade plugin correct?

or just the dist

still doesn't have anything in it

[sterile token]

smile, dude i cant fix this 💀

Yesss it works

But keeps the old item

[lost matrix]

I got some stuff to do

[sterile token]

wait

1m please

[rare rover]

damn 😦

but why doesn't the dist jar have anything in it?

this is all i need

😢

[sterile token]

What the isuse josh?

[rare rover]

the dist has nothing in it

only the plugin.yml

[lost matrix]

How come we have Player#breakBlock(Block) but not Player#interact(Block)

[sterile token]

I just had an issue related to the menu items, when i select an item from the menu and drag it, in another slot, the item which i select to get drag still appear on the menu

[rare rover]

🤔

Dist pom: https://pastebin.com/ek8XVyT7

;-;

it has the plugin.yml from Core but that's it

[sterile token]

josh re check everything

You must be forgettting something

Either plugin.yml not gettin inside the jar or the plugin.yml contains an invalid vlaue

[rare rover]

i dont think so? core and testing is good

[round finch]

Failing to decompile plugin.yml in jar

[sterile token]

GG

[rare rover]

but wont implement into the dist?

[sterile token]

I fixed!!!

[round finch]

?

[sterile token]

More than 6 hours coding a fucking editable menu

[rare rover]

core and testing has code but dist has nothing

[vocal cloud]

Lol

[rare rover]

GG 🙂

[rare rover]

mike help

[sterile token]

Now your turn josh

[rare rover]

i'm so close!

i can feel it

[sterile token]

I wil ltry helping bro

[rare rover]

only dist is not working

that's it

[sterile token]

Send me a picture of all your modules showing the resouces and src of each

[rare rover]

everything else does

[sterile token]

basically i want to see your proejct structure and also send me the issue

[rare rover]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[round finch]

Did you remember to place plugin.yml in source

[sterile token]

yeah paste the issue there

[rare rover]

dist: https://paste.md-5.net/pomojoyexo.xml

which is the only thing that isn't working

[round finch]

And not in random folder

[rare rover]

but i'll send Core and Testing

Testing: https://paste.md-5.net/hosugixado.xml
Core: https://paste.md-5.net/ayoxuledat.xml

testing and core work

i think

...

...

im so dumb

nvm still didn't work

must be something with my maven config

would i clean the whole thing?

hmm

[sterile token]

wwhat are you doing??

dont modify the directories

I wouldnt do that

[rare rover]

okay, but why wont it add the code into the dist jar?

i thought it was something to do with the maven run config

[sterile token]

Hmnn

I would use maven shade plugin

[rare rover]

i am

[sterile token]

hmnn

[rare rover]

in all the poms

[sterile token]

can you upload whole project to github?

[rare rover]

yep

one momen

[sterile token]

Its better for me

right, tagg me pelase

Because im doing some things and i can forget

[rare rover]

👍

@sterile token https://github.com/oShadxw/MavenHurts

this is everything in the dist jar

[sterile token]

right

Parent pom, cant build any jar

dont call it dist

put a better name

[rare rover]

I built off dist

Using clean package

Only has the plugin.yml from Core? Which is weird

[sterile token]

wait

i will check all

explain what its what

[rare rover]

Core = paper plugin (main)
Testing = is just a test aka API
Dist = puts everything together in one jar

[sterile token]

Hmn right, i would make the core contai nall

[rare rover]

Core and Testing work fine has to do something with dist

[sterile token]

wait your strucutre is really confusing

[rare rover]

Ik

[sterile token]

also distrubution doesnt have any code

Really messy

[rare rover]

yes, that's what they told me to do

[sterile token]

Explain me your final goal

[rare rover]

put everything into dist jar

that's it

[sterile token]

And i wll make u the struture

[rare rover]

so i can run all the other modules into one

[sterile token]

i dont recommend using that structure

[rare rover]

what would you recommend then?

[sterile token]

you will use nms?

[rare rover]

yes

[sterile token]

so you will have many jars one for each nms?

[rare rover]

just 1 per nms

[sterile token]

yeah what i said

[rare rover]

there's going to be like 7 since 1.17 - 1.19.3

but

[sterile token]

I would do it like this:

Project-Name (Parent)

Api (Will only contain interfaces or abstract classes)
1.17 (will require modules, api, same for each different version you wan to support)
Core (will require all different versions, and will put them all together, also this module will be the only one contain the main plugin class)

[rare rover]

api will have an interface that will be implemented into the nms too

so i can set the nms version using the interface

ofc

[sterile token]

wait

1m

wait once i finish

[rare rover]

👍

okay but how do i implement all the classes in 1 jar?

[sterile token]

That is how must be work

So now recreate that structure first

[rare rover]

i just want to get dist working right now so i can make a good structure

[sterile token]

I cant help with that structure, its a mess

Harcoded?

You can make use of Configuration class for working with yaml files

[vocal cloud]

Hardcoded configs? You mean a data class?

[sterile token]

So check if the paths exists, if not getDefault() and add them

[vocal cloud]

If I understand they want to load a config into a specific class

Something like Jackson

[sterile token]

no no

He wants to check if config path doesnt exists, then add it

thats what i dunderstand

Is that what you want sleepy?

Hee?

Please send your code

i cant udnerstand what you doing

Because harcoding doesnt mean that ¿'

[vocal cloud]

Final really doesn't mean anything besides a statement of finality

If you do it right then anything can be final in a class

[sterile token]

final, means that a field cant be changed

final is used for fields which are not going to be modified

For example constants

If you mean what does final do on java

Then that field, can be modificable

Maybe mike explains better

[vocal cloud]

If it's a private field in a class you can prevent modification by only allowing it to be read

What are you trying to do here? Be as specific as possible

[sterile token]

I cant udnerstand what he doing

more descriptive please?

[vocal cloud]

Yes anyone who decompiles can see it

[sterile token]

that has nothing to do with decompilation, all java code can be decompiled unless its obfuscated, but there ways to over engeenier it to get the code back

[vocal cloud]

You should use it because you're stating something is final. It should not be an excuse for bad programming though.

[sterile token]

I mean final is a Java acess modifier, which has nothing to do with decompilation

[vocal cloud]

Something that is final in nature can be made final without needing the value to be declared as such

[rare rover]

okay so i did that

aka

[sterile token]

right

So core must depends on Bukkit_1_17_bla

let me find you an exmaple about something like that it will be easier for you

[rare rover]

okay so just implement all the modules into Main then get the jar from Main?

[sterile token]

wait

core depends on paper and must contain the plugin.yml

[rare rover]

yes

yes

[sterile token]

perfect

Then bukkit_1.17 depends on api and nms (or jar you need for that)

[rare rover]

API is in the NMS versions

and the API goes into the Main

[sterile token]

🤔

[rare rover]

and NMS versions

into main

[sterile token]

you broken my brains

[rare rover]

since im implementing NMS for the NMS interface

here one sec

[sterile token]

uplaod current code

[crimson scarab]

does spigot have built in path finding

[rare rover]

this is V1_18_R1

that implements

[sterile token]

Ytes is okay

yeah perfect

[rare rover]

and then The NMS and API goes into core

so i can do

ect

and that's it

[sterile token]

Yes!!!

Like that

[rare rover]

😄

[sterile token]

Now listen

NMS modules will depend on the paper jar for each version, but with scope provided, because you dont want to get them shaded

[wet breach]

It prevents it from changing later on. Non critical if you dont mark stuff as such but more to do with best practices as well as the conpiler and jit occasionally can optimize better when its marked as such

[sterile token]

I will open a thread

so we talk easier

Multi modules

let move there

[lost matrix]

Should have asked me... My code looks like this for a reason 😄

Given this is a bit older and im not 100% into all this finality anymore

[wet breach]

Its mostly a compiler optimization then anything but should be used if you want to conform to so called strict standards lol

So to explain final for more thorough

There are 3 places it can be used

Objects, methods and classes

[crimson scarab]

https://github.com/domisum/CompitumLib
can someone help me install this it has no docs but i want to use it

[wet breach]

You use it on objects to make them constants. When used on a method it prevents the method from being overriden and when used on a class it prevents inheritance

@quaint mantle hope that helps better understand its use

[lost matrix]

clone the repo and build the project using mvn install
Then you can add it to your own pom

<dependency>
    <groupId>de.domisum</groupId>
    <artifactId>CompitumLib</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

[proper notch]

If ur asking what ppl prefer, I prefer gradle.

[lost matrix]

both are bad in their own little way

[terse pumice]

I'm using the destroy entity packet from protocollib but am struggling with inputting a list, they all come back with cast errors:
Cannot cast java.util.ArrayList to it.unimi.dsi.fastutil.ints.IntList at java.lang.Class.cast(Class.java:3889) ~[?:?]

[lost matrix]

IntList.of(yourId)

[terse pumice]

i personally prefer gradle and am slowly moving over

[crimson scarab]

where do i run mvn install

[lost matrix]

In the folder that the pom is in

[terse pumice]

that doesn't appear in my tab complete, is it something I need to import?

[lost matrix]

?

[terse pumice]

I type "IntList" and it is just red and angry aha

[lost matrix]

Yes ofc you need to import it. But your IDE should do that for you

[wet breach]

Give it a try. Ignore people who want to compare in terms of performance. I say this because both can perform quite well. But unless you have something that is super large like compiling firefox for example you wont really see the difference. Also both have different ways they perform. Gradle will use all the resources available from the start and will only use less if you tell it to use less. Maven is the opposite. It will use the least resources and will only use more if you tell it.

[terse pumice]

Apologise I meant depend on. My IDE is not tab completing it at all

[lost matrix]

What Plib version are you on?

[terse pumice]

5.0.0

[lost matrix]

Then you should have it. Its in Spigot even.

[terse pumice]

Hmm, not sure what's caused this then

[lost matrix]

What spigot version?

[terse pumice]

1.19.3

reloaded my maven just to check but no luck

[wet breach]

If on intellij and having issues, invalidate caches and or restart the ide. All others just restart the ide

[terse pumice]

Yeahh I restarted the IDE

[lost matrix]

Hm. Looks like spigot-api does not provide it. You need to include spigot in your project

[wet breach]

Well sometimes that isnt enough with intellij hence i mention invalidating caches

[terse pumice]

ahh ok

[terse pumice]

Would plib not provide it?

[lost matrix]

nope

Maybe it has a util for that

[terse pumice]

it may well do- sounds like a lot of digging haha

I'll swap out spigot-api for spigot then, easiest option

thank you for the help!

[rare rover]

anyone got a better way of doing this? Or is this fine?

private static void setNMSVersion() {
        String version = Bukkit.getServer().getVersion();
        switch (version) {
            case "1.17" -> {
                NMSVersion = new V1_17_R1();
            }
            case "1.18", "1.18.1" -> {
                NMSVersion = new V1_18_R1();
            }
            case "1.18.2" -> {
                NMSVersion = new V1_18_R2();
            }
            case "1.19", "1.19.1", "1.19.2" -> {
                NMSVersion = new V1_19_R1();
            }
            case "1.19.3" -> {
                NMSVersion = new V1_19_R2();
            }
            default -> {
                Bukkit.getLogger().warning("Your server version is not supported by HologramSK!");
                Bukkit.getPluginManager().disablePlugin(plugin);
            }
        }```

personally i dont think this is fine

and im lazy to use patterns

so like

[wet breach]

Could use enums instead

[rare rover]

true true

i could

[lost matrix]

Looks fine to me honestly

[wet breach]

You can stuff the new object creation into enum as well otherwise what you have is fine

[lost matrix]

Its only ran once, so no performance concerns.

[swift drift]

Does anyone know how to use mcedit or minecraft region fixer?????

[rare rover]

true

[wet breach]

Yeah wasnt mentioning using enums for performance reasons. Just if they were just not happy with the look to give them an alternative code layout lol

[lost matrix]

Yeah but going the extra step of using Enum.valueOf() is kind of whatever

But sure an Enum with a Supplier<NMSVersion> could work

[wet breach]

Wouldnt even need to do that either

[tender shard]

many people know that

[lost matrix]

Well it needs to be lazy

If you create an instance of an NMSVersion which is not on the classpath then everything breaks down

[wet breach]

Yeah only caveat to be careful with in regards to enum

[tender shard]

my nms thingy looks like this lol

    /**
     * Initializes NMS features. This needs to be called for all methods annotated with {@link NMS}
     *
     * @throws NMSNotSupportedException when the currently NMS version is not supported by this version of JeffLib
     * @nms
     */
    @NMS
    public static void enableNMS() throws NMSNotSupportedException {
        final String packageName = JeffLib.class.getPackage().getName();
        final String internalsName;
        if (McVersion.current().isAtLeast(1, 19)) {
            internalsName = "v" + McVersion.current().getMajor() + "_" + McVersion.current().getMinor() + ((McVersion.current().getPatch() > 0) ? ("_" + McVersion.current().getPatch()) : "") + "_R1";
        }
        else {
            internalsName = Bukkit.getServer().getClass().getPackage().getName().split("\\.")[3];
        }
        try {
            abstractNmsHandler = (AbstractNMSHandler) Class.forName(packageName + ".internal.nms." + internalsName + ".NMSHandler").getDeclaredConstructor().newInstance();
        } catch (final ReflectiveOperationException exception) {
            final String className = ClassUtils.listAllClasses().stream().filter(name -> name.endsWith(internalsName + ".NMSHandler")).findFirst().orElse(null);
            if (className != null) {
                try {
                    abstractNmsHandler = (AbstractNMSHandler) Class.forName(className).getDeclaredConstructor().newInstance();
                } catch (final ReflectiveOperationException ignored) {

                }
            }
        }
        if (abstractNmsHandler == null) {
            throw new NMSNotSupportedException("JeffLib " + version + " does not support NMS for " + McVersion.current().getName() + "(" + internalsName + ")");
        }
    }

[wet breach]

Thats too much for me

Good thing people like you create these nice libs though lol

[rare rover]

hmm

[tender shard]

i mean, how do you even access your NMS stuff? are you not using multiple modules?

I have to use reflection because otherwise the core module would depend on all NMS modules

[lost matrix]

Which it does in his case

[tender shard]

then how would one remap if all NMS stuff is in the same module o0

[lost matrix]

I told him that his classpath will be cluttered with all the nms versions. Choco told him that its fine.
Usually you would use a 3rd module which contains no code but only a pom with all nms modules and the core module.
It simply shades all nms modules and the core module into one jar

[halcyon hemlock]

Sup guys

[wet breach]

Dont need to remap if you dont deobfuscate

[lost matrix]

lol

And that too

[tender shard]

o0

[lost matrix]

But why would you not?

[tender shard]

yeah

[halcyon hemlock]

I use obfuscated code to increase my brain power and lower my brain cells 👍

I'm now downloading linux to completely ruin my life as well

[tender shard]

imagine extending EntityInsentient, then overriding the x() method lmao

instead of using the proper names

[halcyon hemlock]

lol

[wet breach]

Since obfuscated code isnt anymore difficult for me to use or look at, i would be one of the few who wouldnt bother with the remapping stuff

[halcyon hemlock]

(EntityPlayer) ((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().b.a.k is good code

[lost matrix]

If you dive deep into mojangs registry fkery you will beg for some mappings

[halcyon hemlock]

true

[wet breach]

Suppose that is the advantage of knowing the code since essentially the beginning

[halcyon hemlock]

lol

is ubuntu good?

[wet breach]

Depends

[halcyon hemlock]

It better be

I'm sacrificing my braincells for this

[tender shard]

but it doesn't even work properly anymore, you need to use remapped for some things

e.g. to extend Entity

[halcyon hemlock]

Improper return type

[tender shard]

as you can see in my picture, I did not declare any y() method

[halcyon hemlock]

Wait wtf

[tender shard]

it comes from the obfuscation of the super classes

[halcyon hemlock]

How tf is minecrafts own code clashing

[tender shard]

that's why one needs to use remapped for these things

[halcyon hemlock]

IntelliJ smoking smth again?

[tender shard]

no, it also wouldnt compile

[halcyon hemlock]

What happens if you 'Implement methods'

[tender shard]

then it adds this weird "e_" method

[halcyon hemlock]

Then just use it

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Also why are you even extending that

[wet breach]

You dont need to use remapped. Obviously you setup your stuff to rely on such things so probably not going to be easy to just yank that out

[halcyon hemlock]

I can't even use remapped at this point, half of my codebase will burn

[tender shard]

how else would you create a custom entity

[halcyon hemlock]

Could you tell me exactly what you're trying to do?

Also you could just extend the entity you're trying to make

[tender shard]

show people why using the "non-remapped" spigot .jar isn't always possible

[lost matrix]

Thats exactly how i imagined alexs setup would look like

[halcyon hemlock]

Ok, I will extend it

Let me try it

[wet breach]

Remapped doesnt change how code works

[halcyon hemlock]

Yes

It just changes the names

[tender shard]

it might rename both "mySuperClassMethod" and "mySuperSuperClassMethod" to x() though

[halcyon hemlock]

Could you tell me what you're trying to achieve

[tender shard]

still, creating a custom entity

[halcyon hemlock]

NPC?

[tender shard]

for example, whatever

it was an example

[wet breach]

It might, but that isnt the same as saying something is or is not possible

[halcyon hemlock]

Are you trying to create NPC or what?

[lost matrix]

He is doing holograms. I would honestly do holograms with ProtocolLib

[wet breach]

I would wait till the update to do holograms

[halcyon hemlock]

Works fine for me

[tender shard]

what is everyone talking about

[wet breach]

Anyways i was just providing a response to why someone might not use remap lol. I just dont use it as i dont need it

[lost matrix]

josh is doing holograms

[halcyon hemlock]

I love obfuscated code, best ways to lose brain cells

[tender shard]

oh

[halcyon hemlock]

holograms, just use armorstands

[tender shard]

which version is that?

[halcyon hemlock]

packets and stuff

[wet breach]

Not saying people shouldnt use it. Use it if it helps you, its a tool like other many things lol

[halcyon hemlock]

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.spigotmc</groupId>
            <artifactId>spigot</artifactId>

            <scope>provided</scope>
        </dependency>

[tender shard]

lol 1.17

now try it again in a proper version

1.19.3

on 1.19.3 you WILL see this

[halcyon hemlock]

1.17.1 is a good version

Don't hurt my poor feelings

I hate the new chat system

One second, It's indexing

[wet breach]

https://tenor.com/view/these-feelings-made-me-feel-strange-allison-ponthier-cowboy-song-feels-uncomfortable-feels-strange-gif-20694422

[lost matrix]

Ugh, finally. Multiblock structures with a linked TileState are a logistical nightmare...

[tender shard]

this is the reason why "x() clashes with x()". one of the above is EntityInsentient, the other one is LivingEntity (which the first one extends)

[halcyon hemlock]

First of all, Why are you extending EntityInsentient?

When you can extend a proper Entity

[tender shard]

why the fuck does it matter

same thing when you extend the zombie directly

[lost matrix]

I dont see a single reason to not use moj mappings.

[halcyon hemlock]

extend EntityZombie

[tender shard]

who would have guessed

[halcyon hemlock]

I'll redo it in 1.18.2

[lost matrix]

just run your BuildTools real quick

[halcyon hemlock]

I don't have build tools in 1.19.3

It takes a while

[lost matrix]

Hm does spigot have web hooks?
Im thinking about fetching BuildTools and running
remappings for every version every time there is an update.
On a private repo ofc

?stash

[undone axle]

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

[tender shard]

old versions literally never get updates, so what's the point

and normal spigot gets updates like daily

so just run it for 1.19.3 every day and not bother for any old versions lol

[halcyon hemlock]

Ok

You win

I have no clue why it doesn't work on 1.17.1 +

Minecraft and spigot both are fucked I need to find a better thing to do

[tender shard]

because two methods with different return types out of two different super classes got renamed to the same name

[halcyon hemlock]

I'm not using remapped though, This is default

[tender shard]

exactly

if you'd use remapped, you'd see the original names

that don't clash

then you wouldn't see x() and x(), but swapHandItems() and createMobAttributes()

[rare rover]

would i have to send an entity packet every time the player changes the world?

[halcyon hemlock]

Probably

or just teleport

[wet breach]

The inconvenience here would be using complete paths in the code

[halcyon hemlock]

That's better

[tender shard]

wdym?

it does work fine in remapped

[wet breach]

You can refer to methods snd objects by using their conplete path similar to how you use an import

[tender shard]

that's the default intellij theme, how else would it look lol

[rare rover]

is this good?

[wet breach]

net.minecraft.server.Entity entity``` to give example on using complete paths

[tender shard]

what does this have to do with remapped vs obfuscated?

[wet breach]

So of there was for some reason two imports for an Entity class that were different you would need to do this so the compiler can distinguish between the two in the code

[tender shard]

no, the only class I import is the one I extend

[wet breach]

You obviously dont understand

[tender shard]

maybe you can try to explain it again

[wet breach]

When you get things of differing types named the same thing, you have to use complete paths otherwise compiler doesnt know which you are trying to use

[tender shard]

how would I not understand this?

I am not using two different things that are called the same

i only wrote "MyCustomEntity extends EntityZombie" and that's enough for it to complain

[halcyon hemlock]

Just use 1.17.1 🙏

[tender shard]

i just use remapped, it's no problem at all

[lost matrix]

1. Make it a marker
2. You need to keep track of the entities ID or else you will never be able to modify the name or remove it again

[halcyon hemlock]

Ok now it won't complain

[tender shard]

are you using 1.19.3 meanwhile?

[halcyon hemlock]

override the x method

[wet breach]

Sure, but jist because you didnt put it in your code doesnt mean the inherited classes dont have things named the same which would still require you to use complete paths to tell the compiler which you want.

[halcyon hemlock]

it shows the error in 1.18.2 unless you override

[tender shard]

but it complains about y()

not x()

[wet breach]

Anyways its moot since you use remapped anyways

[halcyon hemlock]

override y then, nms changes name

[tender shard]

so you are not using 1.19.3?

[halcyon hemlock]

Just override and tell me if it works

super.y() would return the EntityLiving's y() so it should be all good

[tender shard]

how would I override that method? I would need to provide two methods of the same name with different return types

[lost matrix]

Example: Abstraction / Implementation(NMS) / Implementation(ProtocolLib)

[halcyon hemlock]

just simply add

[tender shard]

so what should it return?

[halcyon hemlock]

    @Override
    public boolean y() {
        return super.y();
    }

return super.y() -> this returns the EntityLiving's y() method

[tender shard]

but what's the purpose, that would break everything that relies on "calling y()" on any of the super classes

[halcyon hemlock]

?

[tender shard]

yeah imagine someone doing "yourCustomEntity.y()" now, while expecting that they actually wanted to use this:

[lost matrix]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/create-a-hologram-library-nms-or-protocollib.590999/

[tender shard]

what even is that boolean y() method

[halcyon hemlock]

use super methods?

[halcyon hemlock]

Just override the conflicting method

[tender shard]

ah I found it, it's Mob's shouldPassengersInheritMalus method

[wet breach]

You use the complete path of the type

[halcyon hemlock]

Good luck man

[wet breach]

I suppose you never done such things in code that required you to do that

[halcyon hemlock]

writing full path is pain

[wet breach]

Sometimes but its valid and sometimes required

[tender shard]

just imagine you want to override both. how?

because it surely won't work by declaring y() twice in your own class

[lost matrix]

Bytecode injection into broken jar file

[tender shard]

lmao

what a great and "uncomplicated" way to fix a problem that could so easily be solved by erm... just using the proper mappings

[lost matrix]

You clearly dont understand the superiority of using unmapped nms. Just ASM that sh*t in

[tender shard]

i still remember when I refused to use remapped in 1.17 because I didnt understand this maven stuff lol

[lost matrix]

Honestly it was quite the hustle at the beginning... And all the problems with the bleached wood fork as well...

[halcyon hemlock]

Not like that

Override the conflicting method, I was just showing an example

if it is saying void y() is conflicting, override that instead ig

and do super.y()

[warm light]

how can I do runTaskTimerAsynchronously in bungeecord?

[lost matrix]

BungeeCord.getInstance().getScheduler()
Then look at what you got there.

[tender shard]

but there are two y() methods in super classes...

what if I want to override both?

[onyx fjord]

Protocollib

[warm light]

is there anything like ConsoleSender in bungeecord api?

[tender shard]

(System.out lol)

[warm light]

can't use color code there

[halcyon hemlock]

You can

Btw I'm not sure

I'm pretty sure it shows in console

[tender shard]

nobody wants to have color in console anyway

you should only print stuff to console if something went wrong imho

Those are the best. Why wouldnt i want to scroll twice as long to reach important messages.

[tender shard]

oh yeah

everyone wants to know that "ThisPluginThatOnlyAddsSomeTinyStuff" got enabled

it should also have some rainbow color to satisfy my gayness

and to fuck up the logs a bit more

gradle uses ant? o0

[lost matrix]

wut?

[tender shard]

idk, doing "gradlew -version" outputs sth about ant version

[lost matrix]

How do leashes behave? What are the conditions for a leash to not vanish.
Im trying to think of a way to display an electrical wire and i though i could just
attach two invisible armorstands to each other but the leash refuses to show on the client...

Do i need like a leash knot entity?

[tender shard]

it is kinda random lol

they also easily disappear after a few minutes

same like falling blocks

[lost matrix]

Hm

[tender shard]

try AreaEffectClouds instead of armorstands

just a tiny idea

[lost matrix]

Well those wont work either. Maybe i need to send more data after the link entity packet...

[tender shard]

does it work when using just bukkit api instead of nms?

[lost matrix]

🤷

[tender shard]

try it

[lost matrix]

But good point ill try that first

[tender shard]

if that also doesn't work, it's probably client being a jerk again

damn how old is this plugin haha

i switched to nexus like 2 years ago

[lost matrix]

oof

ftp XDD

[tender shard]

ftps*

at least

i think it was ProFTPd or sth

[lost matrix]

Ok so ArmorStand -> ArmorStand doesnt work.
And leashing can only be done for LivingEntities.

[tender shard]

not even using API, when the armor stands are NOT invisible?

[lost matrix]

Ok i found my victims

Invisible slimes it is then

[tender shard]

oh yeah I've seen many people abuse slimes for things haha

[lost matrix]

[tender shard]

but does it still work when both are invisible?

check that using API before you waste your time on packets etc again

[lost matrix]

It better does...

[tender shard]

I'll meanwhile write another shitty blog post and watch some it crowd in the background lol

[lost matrix]

Noice

[tender shard]

nice, then it will also work with NMS

but

the particles

[echo basalt]

Bats have a smaller hitbox

In theory

[lost matrix]

Hello? Invisible byte flag?

Oh set the wrong bits...

Ok looks noice. Just some more fine tuning.

But why are they not aligned...

[tender shard]

what is that for btw?

[tender shard]

maybe this'll help stop people hard-coding their server location and start to use profiles

[lost matrix]

This is useful. Im gonna use this right away. Im always losing time by copying my jar and restarting my server.
Back then i wrote a batch script for this -.-

[lost matrix]

Ah im updating my machines plugin. Introducing energy and polishing it a bit so that i can
actually write monetized content for it in good conscience.

[analog thicket]

Damn how did you do that

[lost matrix]

Code

Just some packets. Invisible slimes with a leash.

[tender shard]

have you not read the above chat? o0

he spawned two slimes and leashed them to each other

[lost matrix]

Im just facing a big problem for when to actually show those lines.
Because if a line crosses a chunk border then i cant send the player both
entity locations, can i. Or can i? Wait the client doesnt throw away packets
for entities which are in unloaded chunks.

Well that makes it easier...

[tender shard]

light shot yes

I would have used the builtin tool if I'd be on the mac

[analog thicket]

Nope lol, i tried finding it gave up lol

[echo basalt]

you can use paperweight and run the server directly in your IDE

[tender shard]

for myself:

?remapped

?nms

[undone axle]

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

[lost matrix]

Yeah but doesnt that only work with gradle?

[tender shard]

yeah

paperweight is a huge mess and only made for gradle

oh and obv it's for paper api, not spigot

[lost matrix]

Just a few days ago i had a multi module maven project and halfway in i realised that i wanted nms.
Problem: I was writing against paper. I discovered that there is actually a maven userdev plugin from some guy

Almost tried hammering in a gradle module in my maven setup. Glad i found the maven plugin tho.,

[tender shard]

paper api D:

paper api would actually be nice if they only did additions instead of also removing/deprecating everything

or adding incompatible changes (Advancement api, for example)

also paper contributors should just man up and just sign the CLA lol

i dont get why everyone is so afraid of signing it

[lost matrix]

What cla?

[tender shard]

the spigot one

?cla

[undone axle]

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

[tender shard]

this one ^

when you contribute to spigot, you have to promise that you wrote this code yourself and didnt steal it somewhere

[lost matrix]

Ah yeah. I think ive signed this one a while back.

[tender shard]

paper doesnt have anything like this

they accept pull request from anybody and risk it getting taken down again

[lost matrix]

Because i really wanted something in the api.

[tender shard]

I could never contribute to paper anyway though, they banned me for sending a soundcloud link months ago

and then never answered my ban appeal

[lost matrix]

lol..

[tender shard]

i understand that it was wrong, but I still expected to at least get a reply

[lost matrix]

Are soundcloud links forbidden?

[tender shard]

well the song was called "fucking a fat girl"

[lost matrix]

XDDDD

[tender shard]

it's a song I made myself lol

https://soundcloud.com/le-crochet/fucking-a-fat-girl-burning-testicles

it's about me processing my last hetero relationship

I bet that if I would have sent a song made by snoop dogg that mentions the n word 20 times, I would not have get banned

and that's the only reason why I am upset

[tender shard]

obviously that song is shit, but getting banned for this? for lifetime? without even replying to my ban appeal? sounds kinda childish to me

they could have answered "yeah okay that's indeed a shitty song, maybe you deserve a ban for that, but yeah, you apologized and we'll unban you in 6 months", I wouldn't complain then

[lost matrix]

Why did you go into a relationship with a girl you dont find physically appealing?

[tender shard]

because I could not find any girl I find attractive and I got desperate

i always say u can either have a gf or a nice car

im going for the car

I don't really think that I caused many issues. I did talk about alcohol and sent a soundcloud link, but it's literally the only discord that ever banned me for that

I would stop venting about paper's community if I'd at least get a reply to my ban appeal

[eternal night]

yea we have been looking into improving that

[tender shard]

e.g. someone saying "okay but you should have read the rules BEFORE joining, so that's why you are still banned" and then I wouldn't say anything against them anymore

but I can only tell my experience with paper and that's how it is

[eternal night]

did you end up fixing your gradle intellij plugin issue btw

[tender shard]

unfortunately no

[hybrid spoke]

when i appealed some guy just sent me a dm saying "heyo, we received your appeal but we cant unban you because your time hasnt come yet"

[quaint mantle]

thanks

[wet breach]

But this is why i typically dont use gradle. Something as small as that breaks everything

For custom spawn change for blocks

which tutorial is the best?

[gleaming grove]

hmm maybe try use this dependencies for Junit tests testImplementation 'org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-api:5.8.1' testRuntimeOnly 'org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-engine:5.8.1'

[lost matrix]

I believe you need nms for that

[eternal night]

you need the launncher 😭

[tender shard]

https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/JeffLib/blob/master/core/src/main/java/com/jeff_media/jefflib/data/ToastMessage.java here it is, does require NMS though

[quaint mantle]

its ok thanks

[wet breach]

Odd that an older version supports 19 but later ones dont unless they just recently updated within the last day lol

[tender shard]

still fails

only using the junit version you sent still fails with the exact same error

[lost matrix]

did you clean after changing versions?

[tender shard]

I didnt, lemme try

[eternal night]

alex

literally

[tender shard]

clean also fails

bump intellij to 1.13

for god sake

[tender shard]

that is what IntelliJ created itself

[eternal night]

I already told you

don't trust the intellij wizard

[tender shard]

1.13.0?

[eternal night]

yes

[tender shard]

ok lemme try

When i mine my copper ore

the block despawns and doesnt work well like the others

[tender shard]

its gonna take a while, the weird gradle plugin thinks it must download 600mb

[eternal night]

it downloads the idea yea

ya know

for testing

[tender shard]

yeah but from a server that can only cope 1mb/s

[lost matrix]

When sending in gist: Add file extensions. In your case .java

[eternal night]

seems like a personal issue 😏

[tender shard]

maybe it's an issue with my ISP, because usually I can download with 1.7 gbit

maybe a routing issue, who knows

[tardy delta]

dutch lol

Guys I need some advice, I need to glow everyone within some radius for one special player, but unglow when entities leave this radius. I know how to make individual glow, but the problem is I don't know how I should trigger unglow, I mean it's easy to glow everyone in range using player.getNearbyEntities(), but I don't know when to unglow them...

[lost matrix]

This happens if you dont write reusable code. Please show some more code and format it properly.

Polling

[paper venture]

What do you mean?

[lost matrix]

Check periodically

So I need to check every entity in the world?

[eternal night]

there you go

runs like butter

the runtimeOnly thing was for the launcher not the jupiter api

[tender shard]

damn thanks, that actually worked. I wonder how did you know that this is the fix when the intelliJ docs say to use the version that the wizard suggests

[eternal night]

because docs can be outdated and I use latest ?

1.13 is 2 weeks old

[tender shard]

but if the docs say "do X and Y" then isn't it obvious that I do X and Y instead of Z

[eternal night]

if they have a github, maybe leave them an issue to fix it ?

[wet breach]

I thought you learned already the docs were severely outdated. So why are you still trying to rely on them?

[tender shard]

good idea

[eternal night]

^

[tender shard]

because I don't have any source of information

[lost matrix]

No. Keep a Set<UUID> for each player to check which entities are currently glowing for him.
On your next poll: Get nearby entities and create a delta Set. (Which entities are now no longer in range)
and unglow those. Also add glow for every new mob.

[tender shard]

besides the official docs

[eternal night]

not considering me a source of information is somewhat rude 😭

[wet breach]

Well dont trust the docs when it comes to issues then

Just assume the docs are wrong when you do lol

[tender shard]

I do, but I still wonder, how do they (the gradle and/or intellij people) expect anyone else to know how it works

[wet breach]

Source code

[tender shard]

not everyone is on this totally unrelated discord server

[wet breach]

Dont you know

[tender shard]

if the docs are outdated, the API is shit

[eternal night]

[wet breach]

But it is still an api though so i guess that counts lol

[paper venture]

So I'm going to store this data in PersistentDataType (DataType.UUID), is it a good idea?

[tender shard]

are you using my MorePDCTypes lib?

[eternal night]

OMEGALUL

mr alex

my friend

[lost matrix]

This is runtime data. You dont need it to be persistent. So not a good idea.

[eternal night]

how is your reading skull

the thing

where it says

to upgrade

[paper venture]

Yes this is such a good library thanks!!!

[left depot]

alr found my issue 👍

had to read the intire code again

[lost matrix]

Cool. Admire it for a bit and then dont use it for your case pls.

[tender shard]

I am using File -> New Project -> IDE Plugin. In the IDE I am paying for, and not very little money. Then it shows the following dialog:

then I clicked on these "docs" link

is it too much to ask for these docs to work?

in the intelliJ version I use? that costs like 400€ per year?

[wet breach]

[paper venture]

Actually I'm working on pvp classes and there can be several players with glowing everyone around, where then should I store this temporary data?

[left depot]

xd

[eternal night]

[lost matrix]

In a manager

[lost matrix]

Thats progress in my books

[wet breach]

I always love the self fixing bugs

[tender shard]

idk but sometimes I feel like I'm the only person on this planet that manages to write docs that are up to date

if the docs are outdated, they shouldn't be there in the first place

[wet breach]

Not everyone has time like you do either

[tender shard]

then they shouldnt write any documentation

[wet breach]

It takes time to make code and then more time to make docs and update

[tender shard]

not really

you usually write the docs like 2 minutes after you changed the source code

[paper venture]

Sorry for disturbing, but what is a manager...

[wet breach]

Yep totally takes 2 minutes to update and write docs for super large projects

[eternal night]

alex the page it linked you to literally has the page

like one chapter down

[tender shard]

wdym?

I followed everything step by step as explained in this link

[left depot]

Fixing errors always gives more errors 😛

[tender shard]

if that link is wrong, it shouldnt be there

[tender shard]

I have to admit that I haven't seen that

[wet breach]

Just wait till you encounter the bugd that magically go away and you still have no idea what the problem was or how it got fixed on its own lol

[tender shard]

it seems however still very shitty to me that it's explained in step 7 of some random tutorial, instead of the wizard doing it itself. the docs for "how to create a new project wizard" claim that one can just use a new empty project that was created by the wizard

[eternal night]

I mean, ehhh, would not call it very shitty

[left depot]

I hope that my error has been fixed 😄

[eternal night]

not ideal maybe

should have linked the other page maybe

[wet breach]

I suppose if you have outdated software the wizard isnt going to magically give you up to date info

Console error -> Respawn cant be NULL

  // Call in a scheduled runnable
  public void updateView(Player player) {

[eternal night]

tbh I digress, glad its working

probably worth to read the rest of the docs

before doing deeper in

[tender shard]

yeah, the yshould have. anyway, thanks for helping me with this, I guess it's working now

[left depot]

I made this plugin from 1.14 to 1.19 for my own use

[eternal night]

to avoid more confusion down the line

[paper venture]

Thanks!!!

[tender shard]

I still think that when I visit this docs: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/docs/intellij/project-structure.html (which are linked in the project wizard), and these docs claim that I should do X and Y, and while I clicked that link in IntelliJ of today (and not IntelliJ as of 5 years ago), then this docs should be correct

especially if I'm paying for IntelliJ Ultimate instead of using the community version

[eternal night]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tender shard]

yeah but you can probably understand that I'm upset about it

[eternal night]

its not idea and certainly not a write as you read guide

[tender shard]

and ofc I know it's not your fault, and I appreciate your help in helping me fix this
