help-development

[undone axle]

It’s hard to answer a programming question without code
Oh no! You ran into a problem. But no worries, people are willing to help, but first they need to see your code. This is because otherwise, they would be providing help based on guesses instead of concrete knowledge. Whether it be a compile error, runtime error, or an unexpected output, I'm sure that if you were to provide code, you'd receive a quick solution.

[eternal oxide]

?paste your pom

[undone axle]

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

[tawny remnant]

im not working in maven

[wet breach]

Above the ping is a paste link with intellij throwing exceptions

Figured you might know something since you use intellij

[tawny remnant]

alex it happened after i added the pdc tags

[eternal oxide]

throw your jar in here

[tawny remnant]

that will leak my ip

[eternal oxide]

you have your IP in your plugin?

[tawny remnant]

sort of

[wet breach]

Lol

Dont worry ip addresses are not private anyways

[tawny remnant]

i think i know what it is tho

ill try smt and then tell you the outcome

[round finch]

lol no config for ip

[wet breach]

We have no code either

So we cant really help further

Anyways driving home now. So no more help from me until then

[round finch]

me.Danko.CSTMItems cannot be cast to class org.bukkit.plugin.Plugin

twice problem with casting

[eternal oxide]

its also about the loader, so probably shaded his own plugin somehow, or that class is not extending JavaPlugin

[tawny remnant]

fixed it

i might be kinda dumm but i did

it was my fault

i said instance = this in a non-Main class iykwim

[young vine]

That's API spigots fork of Bukkit added after paper

[round finch]

yeah if it is a plugin main class instance
that is understandable

big error

[quiet ice]

Not, just in the autocompletion. Which still is nice enough. Perhaps ECJ was also made to only define it once in the bytecode, but we will continue to be haunted by the javadoc issues when using jetbrain's @NotNull/@Nullable

[buoyant viper]

laffs in using vscode rn

[quiet ice]

Isn't it using JDT too?

[buoyant viper]

idfk

ass pressure... bukkit wtf

[terse ore]

can someone use the command for spliting large tasks

[eternal oxide]

?workdistro

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/guide-on-workload-distribution-or-how-to-handle-heavy-splittable-tasks.409003/

[rough drift]

what class

[buoyant viper]

PlayerInteractEvent Action class

[terse ore]

one question, how could I create a world with only 1 iome?

like the world options in singleplayer

[rough drift]

doesn't have an action class

oh

wait I see it

[terse ore]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/WorldType.html

there isn't a single biome :c

[wet breach]

it is as the name implies

[quaint mantle]

Mojang developer moment.

[wet breach]

Nope, came from bukkit

it is as the name implies though

as funny as it may seem, it is quite literal

[quaint mantle]

Bukkit is mojang's offical server software or I'm wrong?

[wet breach]

While mojang may own CB/Bukkit, Mojang has never used any code from it or even touched it

so no

Mojang didn't create CB/Bukkit either

[rough drift]

hey frost, can you take a look at #1084938453730459770

[quaint mantle]

So mojang use bukkit software as minecraft world?

[rough drift]

I cannot figure out how to actually make it rotate lmao

[rough drift]

No

mojang does not use bukkit

[quaint mantle]

Oh

Wesley Wolfe, December 03, 2013

Blame them for ass pressure

:p

[fluid river]

bruh

i already told you 😉

[oak locust]

Hey, I am currently working on a Lobby System Plugin and I am encountering the following issue:
Players get a few different items (server selector, cosmetics menu, etc...) and when they click on a specific item (by right, left clicking or by clicking it with the cursor) they open another inventory. but when they click on the item with the cursor, they create a ghost-item when reopening the inventory. It's hard to describe but here is a short clip of what is happening: ||https://streamable.com/ubdo74||
I am using this Eventhandler to cancel the InventoryClickEvent and to open other Inventories:

    @EventHandler
    public void onMenuClick(InventoryClickEvent event) {
        Player player = (Player) event.getWhoClicked();
        event.setCancelled(true);
        if (!(event.getCurrentItem() == null)) {
            if (event.getCurrentItem().hasItemMeta()) {
                if (event.getCurrentItem().getItemMeta().getDisplayName().equalsIgnoreCase
                        (ChatColor.AQUA + "Server Selector " + ChatColor.DARK_GRAY + "(Right Click)")) {
                    serverGui serverGui = new serverGui();
                    player.openInventory(serverGui.getInventory());

                } else if (event.getCurrentItem().getItemMeta().getDisplayName().equalsIgnoreCase
                        (ChatColor.AQUA + "Cosmetics " + ChatColor.DARK_GRAY + "(Right Click)")) {
                    cosmeticsGui cosmeticsGui = new cosmeticsGui();
                    player.openInventory(cosmeticsGui.getInventory());

                } else if (event.getCurrentItem().getItemMeta().getDisplayName().equalsIgnoreCase
                        (ChatColor.WHITE + "Players: " + ChatColor.GREEN + "Visible" + ChatColor.DARK_GRAY + " (Right Click)")) {
                    player.closeInventory();
                    player.sendMessage(Main.getInstance().prefix + ChatColor.RED + "Feature coming soon");
                }
            }
        }
    }
}```

[terse ore]

I am looking at https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/generator/ChunkGenerator.html rn

but it is as the name implies lmao

which is the irony

[fluid river]

@terse ore

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/void-world-generation-1-18.566608/#post-4511083

[warm mica]

You should restructure your code

if (!(event.getCurrentItem() == null)) {
????? Why

and instead of doing a if statement each time, just return if it's false

[fluid river]

you definitely need jree fava lessons

is link not working for me only tho?

[warm mica]

and don't get a new ItemMeta each time, that is inefficient as it is being cloned each time

[fluid river]

^

[young knoll]

Yo where can I get jree fava lessons

[oak locust]

Sorry but that is not what I have asked for 😄 I coded this a long time ago

[fluid river]

checkmybio

[warm mica]

I aint gonna look through that if I get a panic attack

and structuring it can help you to find the cause

[fluid river]

cool streamable is blocked in russia

vpn made it work again

[warm mica]

lol why

are they blocking everything now like china

[fluid river]

no

sanctions

[wet breach]

your f key messed up?

[warm mica]

ah

[fluid river]

guys just leave ru

[fluid river]

no

i teach Fava

[oak locust]

because of one line of code you are getting a panic attack and refuse to help me :o thank you very much sir!

[warm mica]

No problem

[fluid river]

are you sure it's not a visual bug or smth

can you throw this item or place it after you get it

[oak locust]

i am currently learning java and spigot developement and you are most definitely not helping me do that

[wet breach]

just ignore them 🙂

[warm mica]

I am just not spoon feeding you, if you really want to learn then you have to find a solution yourself

[oak locust]

no, that's why i said it is a ghost-item

[terse ore]

additional to that I also need to do some more stuff

[fluid river]

well, you can try setting

[terse ore]

can I dm you or make a thread to keep things clear

[oak locust]

i tried many things but i can't find a solution

[fluid river]

event.setCursor(null)

also before opening a new inv

[oak locust]

@warm mica don't act like you are superior to me or whatever just because you are more experienced

[fluid river]

close old one

[oak locust]

thanks i'll try that

[vale ember]

Is there a way I can enable a plugin from a jar i just downloaded from code?

[fluid river]

Player#closeInventory()

[fluid river]

wait what

[warm mica]

What?

[fluid river]

you can try using File class to get the .jar

and then some reflection ig

[vale ember]

I want to make an auto updater that does not require a restart. I download the jar from the web and want to enable it

[fluid river]

^^

[oak locust]

i was already thinking about that, but it looks a bit less smooth. But if it is necessary i will implement that

[young knoll]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/plugin/PluginManager.html#loadPlugin(java.io.File)

[wet breach]

unless you are going to use reflection and hook into spigots class loader you will need to restart

[fluid river]

^^

[oak locust]

just shut your goofy ass up and stop harassing people without that much knowledge

[warm mica]

All I did was to give a really important tip that you firstly have to clean up, and you are getting mad because of that?

getta hell out of here

[young knoll]

Then there is also https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/plugin/PluginManager.html#enablePlugin(org.bukkit.plugin.Plugin)

[wet breach]

as I said earlier just ignore them before you get yourself in trouble 🙂

[oak locust]

you were very rude about that

[wet breach]

you don't need to engage them

[oak locust]

sorry

[fluid river]

well you can call me so i can help you

if you stream the result

[warm mica]

How was I rude by stating a fact? lmao

[wet breach]

odds are the problem resides in your servergui code

for the ghost item problem

[oak locust]

really? i never even thought about that

[oak locust]

ty i will try some things first :)

[wet breach]

I don't see anything in the code above you posted that would cause it

so the only other thing in that code is servergui

[fluid river]

is servergui a lib or smth

or just other class from own plugin

[oak locust]

a class from my plugin

[wet breach]

its their Class for creating the GUI and tracking it

[brisk estuary]

have you guys tried the new UI on intellij?

[wet breach]

some probably have

[oak locust]

i jave servergui (the actual inventory holder) and serverguihandler (its a listener)

[warm mica]

Where did you get that

[brisk estuary]

Preferences -> Appearance & Behavior -> Enable new UI

[warm mica]

it looks like vs code now, that's interesting

[oak locust]

thank you very much, that works 😄

[fluid river]

ez

[fluid river]

now please restructure this code

[warm mica]

Thanks

It looks really nice

[oak locust]

yeah, i will do that

[fluid river]

?arrow

what's this command name

@wet breach

help me pls

[wet breach]

for?

[fluid river]

arrow antipattern command

i forgor

[wet breach]

don't think I have seen or heard that command before

[warm mica]

There should be a list of commands

that bot has so many of them

[wet breach]

there is if you know where to look

[fluid river]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/avoiding-the-arrow-anti-pattern/

idc

[warm mica]

Well, apparently i am not the only one lol

[fluid river]

just sent the link bot sends

[fluid river]

@oak locust

[oak locust]

i will look trough that thank you

[wet breach]

this is personal preference

you should return early if possible, but there is cases where you have no choice but to nest if statements

just because you don't like the look, doesn't mean it is bad because this is more or less under style/formatting which you can do in your own IDE

my IDE, I can collapse code I don't need to look at

therefore, its a none issue in what style/format people use as long as its pretty consistent and sane lol

[vale ember]

is it possible to run a bukkit code with value computed asynchronously via CompletableFuture without freezing the server? I'm trying this:

CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(updater::tryDownloadLatestVersion)
                .thenAccept(updater::disableOldAndEnableNew);

but it throws exception

saying plugin cant be disabled asynchronously

[young knoll]

You could wrap it with Scheduler.runTask

[vale ember]

so i download the file synchronously?

[young knoll]

No

[fluid river]

you disable synchronously

[young knoll]

You disable the plugin synchronously

[warm mica]

Only almost everything bukkit related

[vale ember]

like this?

        Bukkit.getScheduler().runTask(plugin, () -> {
            CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(updater::tryDownloadLatestVersion)
                    .thenAccept(updater::disableOldAndEnableNew);
        });

[warm mica]

No

Only the part where you call updater::disableOldAndEnableNew

Right now you are synchronizing that the completable is being called async

[vale ember]

like this?

CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(updater::tryDownloadLatestVersion)
                        .thenAccept(it -> {
                            Bukkit.getScheduler().runTask(plugin, () -> updater.disableOldAndEnableNew(it));
                        });

[warm mica]

Yes that will likely work

[vale ember]

thanks!

[wet breach]

+1 to the new person helping

hmm, now to remember the command for cafebabe to keep track

guess we don't have that anymore as well

all well

now that you have read that

what do you think cba means

CafeBAbe

[fluid river]

cba means didn't read lol

https://tenor.com/view/zyzz-aesthetic-didnt-read-dn-rd-didnt-ask-gif-20454668

[warm mica]

zyzz😎

[wet breach]

the clean version of cba meaning is couldn't better assist

fun fact about cafebabe

you used to be able to engage in conversation with her

sadly she has been silenced so, that is no longer possible

[warm mica]

how

this seems like a perfect opportunity to integrate the chatgpt api

[wet breach]

she has an AI attached

that allowed her to talk to you 🙂

not always smart, but was good enough and she would sometimes make fun of you as well lol

[fluid river]

and then the guy goes "omg bot is so rude..."

[wet breach]

depends on what her comment was

sometimes it would be a nice burn

[remote swallow]

it is?

ive always known it as cant be arsed

[wet breach]

I said clean version

[remote swallow]

oh

i havent turned my brain on

[vale ember]

why is it that if i disable a plugin and then load and enable the same plugin from different jar and try to execute a command from that plugin internal error occurs saying that the previous version of the plugin is disabled?

[hazy parrot]

Not sure that you can swap plugin jars while server is running

[mighty pier]

should i delete an object or do i leave it to garbace gollector

[vale ember]

all other features work fine though

[hazy parrot]

Leave it to collector

[mighty pier]

ok

[wet breach]

not without using reflection to hook into the classloader of the server to remove all the classes off the path

so you are correct

[hazy parrot]

Look at frostalf response, have you done that system? ^

[vale ember]

No, I just disable it with plugin manager and delete the file

[hazy parrot]

Yeah that won't work

[wet breach]

the jvm loads all the classes onto the path

hence why you can delete the file while the server is running and the plugin still works in the server 😉

so you need to use reflection and a javagent to do what is called hotswapping of classes

[hazy parrot]

And imo it's not really worth, just restart server

[wet breach]

yeah, restarting is not that bad lol

[vale ember]

Yeah it's just that someone requests an auto updater for my plugin which wouldn't require restart 🤷‍♂️

[wet breach]

unfortunately, that isn't something that is going to be easily doable and they will just have to live with restarting

if you really want to implement it, I gave you the keywords/things to research

[vale ember]

I don't think I'm gonna go that deep, but thanks anyway!

[remote swallow]

ig an example would be how plugwoman unloads and loads stuff

i think, no idea though

[mighty pier]

send best sqlite implementation

[wet breach]

sqlite driver

not sure if you are going to get better then that

[kind hatch]

Nah, it hardly does anything differently from its original fork. It still the same old PluginManager#disablePlugin and PluginManager#enablePlugin but with some extra steps on the disable part.

[wispy wyvern]

how can i prevent blocks from placing within a radius of a specific block type

so for example, i place a gold_block, and within 5 blocks of radius i want to despawn any blocks placed

[remote swallow]

i thought it did some thread unloading jank stuff

[wispy wyvern]

so i can only place any other block that is 5 blocks aways from the target block

[kind hatch]

Not really. This is what it actually does. As far as I can tell, it doesn't even touch threads.
https://github.com/Redempt/PlugWoman/blob/master/src/redempt/plugwoman/PlugWoman.java#L246

[remote swallow]

ah

now im confused how plug woman doesnt kill low spec servers but plugman does

[wet breach]

probably because the former catches exceptions the latter doesn't

catches and handles the exceptions

[quaint mantle]

hello.

[remote swallow]

ah

[quaint mantle]

i am concerned.

for some reason, block break events on my server are being cancelled and i cannot discern why.

[flint coyote]

Spawn protection?

[quaint mantle]

i am looking at all the event handlers registered, none of them appear to have event.setCancelled(true); and are registered as block break events.

[quaint mantle]

oh.

how do i turn off that?

[kind hatch]

Set it to 0

[flint coyote]

in the server.properties file

[quaint mantle]

lol that confused me so much.

another question, what is material for crops as in things placed in the world called?

nvm.

[golden turret]

WHEAT

I think

1.13

[remote swallow]

different for each crop iirc

[golden turret]

yes

POTATO

CARROT

and etc

[quaint mantle]

it is POTATOES for potatoes probably.

[golden turret]

yes

bukkit should have different enums for items and blocks

that would be a lot easier

[flint coyote]

They could differ between items and blocks but they try to stay as close as possible to mojang

[golden turret]

sad

mojang bad

[flint coyote]

Well, I think it gets worse now that microsoft owns it - but that's not the channel to discuss about this

[quaint mantle]

microsoft probably has owned mojang for very long now.

too late to discuss that.

but yep, mojang and microsoft bad.

very bad.

[flint coyote]

I mean so far so good. The problem I have with them developing minecraft is that they will probably start cancelling mc-java-edition in the next 3 years

I don't wanna be forced to play Bugrock-Edition 😢

[quaint mantle]

did they say that?

[flint coyote]

No they stated that they will continue developing both versions for now

[wet breach]

you wouldn't, this would open up creativity to the community if mojang stopped

which is most likely the reason why they won't

[quaint mantle]

what do you mean?

[wet breach]

well, everyone uses the vanilla client because mojang maintains it. If they stopped updating the Java edition, this allows the community to start adding their own stuff since no more updates from mojang

[flint coyote]

Even if the java community would take matters into their own hands I still expect 90+% of players to shift to bedrock edition at this point.
Since java edition will not be in the same launcher anymore, not downloadable on minecraft.net etc.

[wet breach]

custom launchers already exist

[flint coyote]

I know they already exist but the majority of players probably won't bother downloading a custom launcher to play a minecraft version that has far less players.

The only real chance for survival I see is to keep crossplay with bedrock up in java edition

[wet breach]

not really, plenty still play on java edition

far more then you are implying

[quaint mantle]

who uses the default launcher? I use multimc lol.

[flint coyote]

I would expect atleast 2/3 of players on bedrock, even though there are no official numbers.
Bedrock supports all platforms and not just PC

[wet breach]

I do

[quaint mantle]

I HAD THIS IN MIND FOR SO LONG!

[kind hatch]

I'd probably quit Minecraft altogether if they discontinued the java edition. It's the only damn edition that runs on linux atm. I could potentially play dungeons through Steam, but I bought it through Microsoft themselves.

[flint coyote]

I also use the default launcher. Even though it is super annoying how slow that launcher got

[quaint mantle]

mojang does a terrible job of updating the game, just have them no longer update the game and instead let the modmakers do it.

[hybrid spoke]

java > bedrock

[wet breach]

not everyone on pc plays bedrock, while I do have the bedrock edition of mc in my ms store, I don't play apps or even use it. There is a lower limit that isn't 0 in terms of players

[quaint mantle]

mojang could just provide a modding api of sorts if anything.

[wet breach]

simply because not all PC players play bedrock

[kind hatch]

They announced that at one point. Never went anywhere with it.

[wet breach]

they tried, thank evilseph for killing it

[hybrid spoke]

only thing thats cool is that you can let the clients load custom stuff directly in bedrock

[quaint mantle]

who?

[wet breach]

in case you don't know who that is, that is the person who tried to kill bukkit

[quaint mantle]

what?

[kind hatch]

I thought that was Wolverness?

[wet breach]

Wolverness DMCA'ed after

[quaint mantle]

what?

[kind hatch]

?dmca

[undone axle]

An unofficial explanation of the DMCA can be found here: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/unofficial-explanation-about-the-dmca/

[wet breach]

EvilSeph is also the only bukkit dev member to be forced to resign from Mojang too

[quaint mantle]

Bukkit api was sued??

[kind hatch]

You're not referring to DarkSeraphim are you?

[wet breach]

but he was the one that was supposed to create a mc mod api type thing but either failed or never did it

[quaint mantle]

mojang owns bukkit?

[hybrid spoke]

failed, got mad and griefed

[wet breach]

Yes

[quaint mantle]

what?

[wet breach]

they have for several years now

[quaint mantle]

they own spigot?

[wet breach]

its no secret

no

[quaint mantle]

what is going on?

[wet breach]

Spigot is built on top of CraftBukkit/Bukkit

[quaint mantle]

yep.

[wet breach]

CraftBukkit/Bukkit is owned by Mojang

[quaint mantle]

it is?

i did not know.

[wet breach]

However Mojang doesn't touch it or do anything with it, and has left it for the community to maintain

[quaint mantle]

nor they should probably.

they do a terrible job of maintaining a block game, with over 1000 employees lol.

with billions of dollars.

[wet breach]

However because they own it, they prevented exactly what they wanted to prevent. Someone like EvilSeph attempting to kill off the project

[eternal night]

[quaint mantle]

not to mention microsoft's trillions of dollars.

[kind hatch]

Mojang only has like 30ish people.

[quaint mantle]

it says they have like 1000 employees when you google it?

[wet breach]

Well I mean employee does't mean developer

[quaint mantle]

hm.

[flint coyote]

They count all the spigot devs /s

[wet breach]

they could be counting the janitors for all we know 😛

[quaint mantle]

but even then, with so much money, they should probably be doing a better job maintaining a block game perhaps?

[flint coyote]

True. Maybe they got 1 janitor per room

[wet breach]

but yeah employee doesn't mean developer. In terms of developers its like 30 some odd people

[wet breach]

Mojang doesn't have that much money

[quaint mantle]

microsoft is a trillion dollar company.

its more money than some countries combined.

[wet breach]

Indeed, but it isn't going to give Mojang a trillion dollars to spend or play with

[flint coyote]

Microsofts focus is certainly not minecraft

[wet breach]

nor could they

[eternal night]

time to kill windows, we need more money allocated to minecraft

[wet breach]

lol

[quaint mantle]

ok.

[flint coyote]

What really gets them all their money is probably MS office or business server licenses and support

[wet breach]

Enterprise

is what makes them their money

customers like DoD for example

[quaint mantle]

who?

[kind hatch]

Huh, they actually have a larger team now. Still only a handful of actual devs though.
https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Mojang_Studios#Employees

[wet breach]

Department of Defense

its in the US

[quaint mantle]

ok.

[flint coyote]

Kinda ironic that DoD uses Windows. Unless they use it to test windows vulnerabilities lol

[quaint mantle]

maybe the latter, to hack into everyone's computers perhaps?

potential conspiracy?

[wet breach]

Its used for office related stuff because its easier to monitor and setup Virtual desktops

[hasty prawn]

That guy is a god

[wet breach]

serialize it and save it to file

[kind hatch]

Serialize it and write it to disk.

[quaint mantle]

the config file system probably does that already.

[flint coyote]

Or you could hire people that now linux instead of windows and achieve the same thing with more security.
I'm not a "go linux or go home" guy since I play a lot of games but it's a fact that windows has more (already used) attack vectors than linux

[wet breach]

depends how they want to save it

[wet breach]

there isn't anything close to what Microsoft server provides from linux

[quaint mantle]

microsoft's servers are hosted on linux?

[wet breach]

especially in terms of remote user environments, the ability to create them on the fly and setup with CAC

[kind hatch]

Did you save those changes to disk?

FileConfiguration#save()

[wet breach]

the closest you could get on the linux side with slim clients is network booting, but windows provides it in a completely different way

[flint coyote]

That's true, yet still instead of investing billions of dollars into microsoft enterprise and support you could hire people to develop what is needed

[wet breach]

no

cheaper to just let microsoft handle it

and it doesn't cost billions of dollars either

its more like millions

[flint coyote]

Now that I'm thinking about it - they get a discount by collecting the taxes from every sale anyway

[wet breach]

military isn't taxed....

[flint coyote]

Microsoft is

[kind hatch]

You know, I'm kinda surprised that linux doesn't have similar alternatives to what Microsoft offers at this point. At least on the enterprise side.

[wet breach]

Government contracts are not taxed

[flint coyote]

Oh I did not know that

[kind hatch]

You'd think with all this time that has passed someone would have made some sort of contribution or startup project.

[wet breach]

I am pretty sure it is most likely due to the fact the under taking to replicate such a system

not only do you have to develop a server

but you have to develop a client as well to go with it

windows desktop works with the windows server because both are designed to be that way specifically. It isn't like some addition that comes from an outside source to make it possible lol

[kind hatch]

Sure, but you'd think with all of the containerization that linux is capable of that something would have come along. Like docker instances that could be managed like windows VMs.

[wet breach]

well the remote desktop environments are not really VM's

[flint coyote]

And it has to be a lot cheaper/better than what microsoft delivers to actually make people (especially large companies that have adapted to windows for decades) swap. Would be like all those smaller mobile phone companies against Samsung/Apple and maybe Google

[wet breach]

I mean they kind of are but at same time are not

[wet breach]

Also, another thing to consider, the Government simply can't just choose to use opensource stuff because they want to exclude a business from being able to take up government contracts. They have to allow both sides equal opportunity

[thorn crypt]

Yo, Is it normal that when I just persistant data on a bow it work and when I disconnected and then reconnect, the persistant data wont work ?

I mean, I set a data named "bow_type" and if when a shoot is made with and the value is "fire_ball" it will launch a fireball instead of the arrow.

But when I do it a first time it work, and will work UNTIL I disconnect and reconnect

[kind hatch]

Are you sure you are setting PDC data and not Metadata?

[wet breach]

and are you sure you are actually saving it

[thorn crypt]

Yes I am sure

[thorn crypt]

Saving it ? I never had to save it on player, is it needed to save it on item ?

[flint coyote]

Well all that considered I guess Microsoft will keep its monopoly.
Although I would have said the same about Google 2 years ago. Now OpenAI is applying a lot of pressure on Google

[wet breach]

the government contracts with google too

so no, microsoft doesn't have a monopoly

as I said, everyone has to be given equal opportunity with the government contracts 🙂

[flint coyote]

But Google doesn't offer a server OS (or any OS, besides Android)

[wet breach]

While true, they do offer GPS and Maps and some other stuff

[flint coyote]

Yeah what I meant is the monopoly in terms of (server) OS

[wet breach]

Oh Microsoft still doesn't

DoD also uses Redhat

[flint coyote]

And googles monopoly (that is currently shrinking) is a search engine

[brisk estuary]

Internet Explorer

[wet breach]

googles monopoly is its maps for enterprise side

search engine for the consumer side

[flint coyote]

The latter took a hard hit. And if microsoft should manage to make bing viable with their OpenAI investment it might get worse

[kind hatch]

Oh, well if you're using bungee, then you'll need to call ConfigurationProvider#save()

[wet breach]

thats fine, but microsoft isn't going to beat google in the maps anytime soon

[flint coyote]

That's true. No other company is close to beating google maps. The closest it gets is probably apple maps

[wet breach]

but yeah when it comes to the US government, its allowed to save money but it simply can't just not hand out government contracts either

[flint coyote]

But with all the cheap android devices using google maps, apple has not nearly enough data to compete with google

[flint coyote]

What do you mean by "but it simply can't just not hand out government contracts either"?

[wet breach]

And since most open source software companies are not competing for government contracts because they are not there to make bids or represented, you tend to see corporations like microsoft or google getting the contracts because they made the bids for it.

[wet breach]

So, if the government can hire a business or create a contract for businesses to bid on, it must consider that and in most cases must do that. Because it is part of creating jobs and other things. The Government has rules it has to follow

[flint coyote]

Oh now I get it. Yeah someone would actually have to start a business based on Linux and be competition for microsoft/google. Which ofc would be a huge investment and a loooong way

[quaint mantle]

is there an event for stepping on pressure plates or stepping on tripwires perhaps?

[flint coyote]

Interact event should work. You can somehow check for PHYSICAL. Lemme check the docs

[wet breach]

that is exactly what you would check for

Action.Physical

[flint coyote]

Action == Action.PHYSICAL, ye

Btw frostalf since I see you answering questions here quite a lot - do you know how spigot determines spots to spawn mobs?

Is there any way to get a random "natural" spawn location to summon a mob?

[wet breach]

not sure what you mean by natural, and spigot isn't the one that determines anything with the exception of possibly modifying or hooking into the code area

most of it is from mojang

[flint coyote]

Well then let me rephrase: Does Spigot offer a possibility to get a spawning position for a specific mob?

Lets say I want to spawn a zombie - I would need a 2 block space with light level 0 and it can not be like 3 blocks around a player.

Maybe it's more than 3. Idk the exact monster spawn rules

And it probably differs for mobs from spawners aswell

While I can implement all those rules myself - mojang has logic to enforce that somewhere in their code. So it would be cool to just reuse it

[kind hatch]

You might want to read up on this. Some of it is randomized.
https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Spawn#Spawn_cycle

[wet breach]

it does differ from spawners

spawners have different rules then natural spawned mobs

and shadow gave you the link to pretty much read everything in regards to spawning

all spigot does or hooks into, other then allowing from the api to spawn stuff, is providing configuration to limit spawns and amounts

it doesn't actually change the prediction code or anything

now whether or not could you hook into this code is a different matter entirely, fortunately the odds are probably yes with NMS and reflection, the unfortunate part is that the odds are that all this prediction code is probably spread out in a number of classes and not just a single few lol

[flint coyote]

That's sad. I would really like to just spawn mobs "naturally".
For a custom mob plugin I am currently waiting for a zombie to spawn, then cancelling that spawn and spawning my custom zombie instead.

Would be cleaner to simply call something like

Location loc = World.getRandomViableSpawnLocation(EntityType.ZOMBIE, player.getLocation());
loc.spawnCreature(...);

I might try with reflection then. I did the same to add pathfinder and other goals to already existing entities

[fluid river]

isn't that the only way tho

for pathfinding

[flint coyote]

You can do it without reflection if you spawn new entities. You still need NMS obviously

[fluid river]

oh

[wet breach]

you could use the location of the entity that was about to spawn and place your custom entity instead

[flint coyote]

That's what I do. I was hoping for a better solution that is not based on other entities spawning :D

[hybrid spoke]

implementing your own spawn system

[wet breach]

while that might sound better

you are still having to cancel the entity for your custom one

[flint coyote]

Yup that's why I added a chance aswell. So you don't disable normal mobs.

In simple terms -> On zombie spawn if the chance of 5% is met, spawn custom and cancel normal zombie, otherwise do nothing

[hybrid spoke]

thats the way to go

[wet breach]

well if are not completely removing the normal mob that your custom is based off of, you can just create some random algo for spawning it

[fluid river]

get the location of new spawned mob

[wet breach]

but if you are swapping between them like above, that is the way to go or keep it

[fluid river]

and in scheduler spawn your own after 1 minute if light level haven't changed 😉

gonna fuck up your cpu ig

[flint coyote]

Save all Locations a mob spawned and remove them when light level changes. Lemme just buy 128GB of RAM for my server 😛

[wet breach]

just cycle stuff through the paging

[flint coyote]

Yeah I guess I'll take a look at mojangs code / keep the current solution for now.
It's not that bad that less normal mobs spawn when custom mobs exist

Would have been cool to spawn like 10 custom mobs at natural locations if a certain event is triggered but guess I'll have to deal without that for now

[fluid river]

i let you

go for it 😉

[flint coyote]

At some point you will have every non obstructed block in that list

(that is at ground level)

[fluid river]

truee

but in 1 minute block would be removed from the list anyways

so depends on player amount

and loaded chunks amount

[flint coyote]

You don't want to delete the Locations. In case the chunk gets loaded again you need them.

BUT: You can save them per chunk and only load the chunks locations on chunk load and persist them on unload

[fluid river]

anyways that's so fucked up

why are we even discussing

[flint coyote]

In that case you don't even need that much RAM. Just a lot of storage space 😛

Idk. I won't do that anyway. It's a horrible solution

[fluid river]

ik

just random idea i get in my hand at 3:00

[flint coyote]

I could do it for a worst practice example 🤔

[fluid river]

everyday

hey fabsi

do you have 1 min of free time

and a local serv

[flint coyote]

I do have a local server, why?

[wet breach]

just put them in a memory mapped file

pull them from the file when they are needed

[flint coyote]

Yup. Yet still you would have to recheck and re-save all Locations when the light level changes.

[wet breach]

nope

depends how the file is structured

[flint coyote]

Well but you need the light level in the file. Otherwise you will loop through wrong blocks while trying to find a valid spawn location

[wet breach]

well sine you only need the relevant locations around a given area you can always check to see if the light levels changed at that point and just remove the ones no longer valid

but essentially how you would store it is like a grid system

but you wouldn't use human readable text since you can't store stuff efficiently like that nor could you really represent 3 dimensions visually in a file anyways

2 dimensions if we don't care about the y value

[flint coyote]

That would also work, ye. It could cause lag when a large area was lighted up after the last spawn and thousands of blocks are checked and overwritten before a spot was found (or none at all)

[wet breach]

memory mapping wouldn't cause lag

as the memory mapped file is separate from the program

and because it is a memory mapped file you can also use another process that checks

[thorn crypt]

What can I do to make a custom bow, like I want to add a data to a bow with "fireball".

[wet breach]

what I mean by this is, you could if you wanted just have a background process that reads region files and checks your memory mapped file

[fluid river]

pdc

[wet breach]

because memory mapped files are not locked to a single process

[fluid river]

?pdc

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-guide-to-1-14-persistentdataholder-api.371200/

[thorn crypt]

I wanted to do that, and I did that, but when I disconnect and reconnect, the custom bow don't work

[fluid river]

umm

show your code

that's really weird

[thorn crypt]

Like I made a fireball bow and it was shooting fireball and I disconnecd reconnected and it stopped shooting fireball

[fluid river]

pdc's are not touched with restarts

[wet breach]

?nocode

[undone axle]

It’s hard to answer a programming question without code
Oh no! You ran into a problem. But no worries, people are willing to help, but first they need to see your code. This is because otherwise, they would be providing help based on guesses instead of concrete knowledge. Whether it be a compile error, runtime error, or an unexpected output, I'm sure that if you were to provide code, you'd receive a quick solution.

[thorn crypt]

2sec I'll give him lol

[fluid river]

w8ing

[flint coyote]

I guess that would be a valid solution in that case. But it's still super overkill, just to spawn a few mobs lol.
But I'll keep that solution in mind as it might come in handy for other problems

[fluid river]

...

[wet breach]

Yeah I am one of the people around here that advocates memory map file usage 😛

[thorn crypt]

Bow :

ItemStack fireballBow = new ItemStack(Material.BOW);
            ItemMeta fireballBowMeta = fireballBow.getItemMeta();
            fireballBowMeta.setDisplayName(fireball_bow_name);
            fireballBowMeta.setLore(Collections.singletonList(fireball_bow_lore));
            fireballBowMeta.getPersistentDataContainer().set(new NamespacedKey(MyCustomBow.getPlugin(MyCustomBow.class), "bow_type"), PersistentDataType.STRING, "fire_ball");
            fireballBow.setItemMeta(fireballBowMeta);
            player.getInventory().addItem(fireballBow);

OnShoot

public class bowShootListener implements Listener {

    @EventHandler
    private void onShoot(EntityShootBowEvent event) {
        if (!(event.getEntity() instanceof Player)) return;
        Player player = (Player) event.getEntity();
        ItemStack bow = event.getBow();
        Entity arrow = event.getProjectile();
        if (bow.getItemMeta().getPersistentDataContainer().getOrDefault(new NamespacedKey(MyCustomBow.getPlugin(MyCustomBow.class), "bow_type"), PersistentDataType.STRING, "-1") == "fire_ball") {
            arrow.remove();
            player.launchProjectile(Fireball.class);
        } else if (bow.getItemMeta().getPersistentDataContainer().getOrDefault(new NamespacedKey(MyCustomBow.getPlugin(MyCustomBow.class), "bow_type"), PersistentDataType.STRING, "-1") == "lightning") {
            arrow.getPersistentDataContainer().set(new NamespacedKey(MyCustomBow.getPlugin(MyCustomBow.class), "bow_type"), PersistentDataType.STRING, "lightning");
        } else if (bow.getItemMeta().getPersistentDataContainer().getOrDefault(new NamespacedKey(MyCustomBow.getPlugin(MyCustomBow.class), "bow_type"), PersistentDataType.STRING, "-1") == "tnt") {
            arrow.getPersistentDataContainer().set(new NamespacedKey(MyCustomBow.getPlugin(MyCustomBow.class), "bow_type"), PersistentDataType.STRING, "lightning");

        }
    }
}

[wet breach]

and I know how it can be used in some pretty creative ways

also, memory mapped files if the server dies for whatever reason

get saved on their own by the OS as it is OS managed

not process managed

[flint coyote]

Is there any disadvantage compared to a usual file?

[wet breach]

also it is a handy way for two programs to communicate too if need be

[flint coyote]

That's stored like every 5 minutes and on shutdown?

[wet breach]

unless the system just suddenly shuts down or you run out of ram

[fluid river]

what is this "-1" thing for

[wet breach]

those are the only two disadvantages

[fluid river]

oh i see

[wet breach]

you can memory map files in 2 ways

[fluid river]

try debugging this

[thorn crypt]

a random value if the bow isn't a "custom bow"

[fluid river]

cuz from what i see it should work

[wet breach]

you can either load the entire file into memory or you can just load partial and just have a buffer that loads and unloads as you go through the file

[fluid river]

even if you reconnect

[thorn crypt]

I'll try

[thorn crypt]

I can let you come on the serv to try if you want

[fluid river]

also, try .equals()

instead of ==

for string comparison

[thorn crypt]

Ok i'll try

[fluid river]

cuz you know, gc is working around both string pool and heap

[thorn crypt]

Oh it work now

The problem was the == yes

[fluid river]

never compare strings with ==

or at least do

[thorn crypt]

I replaced with .equals() and work perfectly

[fluid river]

yourString.intern() == "fire_bow".intern()

[thorn crypt]

What intern for ? I never saw that

[fluid river]

putting it string pool

afair

[thorn crypt]

Oh okay, thanks you !

[flint coyote]

That actually sounds pretty cool. Why does spigot not use that for config files?

[fluid river]

cuz spigot utilizes SnakeYaml with yaml?

[thorn crypt]

Thanks !

[fluid river]

today i gave free java lessons

[thorn crypt]

It's a pleasure x)

[fluid river]

dear diary,

[wet breach]

it does

snakeyaml the lib that spigot depends and extends a bit, loads plugin configs into memory

and then for custom configs if you make use of the appropriate methods and retain a reference also loads files into memory

hence why there is a MemoryConfiguration in the API

but this type of memory loading is different as its done through the process

and not through the OS in terms of memory mapping

[buoyant violet]

how can i install java 16 without login in oracle?

[eternal oxide]

Adopt OpenJDK

[fluid river]

eclipse temurin

or i can just send you zip or exe

@buoyant violet

[wispy wyvern]

guys, how could i prevent players from placing the same block type as my target block within 5 block radius?

lets suppose i have a beacon placed randomly, and i dont want players to be able to place a block less than 5 blocks away

[fluid river]

blockplaceevent

in case guy wants NxN blocks radius, distance won't work well

cuz distance is just operating with xyz sphere

three nested for loops

for x y z

or bounding box at least

cuz distance is operating with default maths

if block is 3 blocks away on x

and 4 blocks away on z

distance is 5

cuz dist = sqrt((x0-x1)^2 + (y0-y1)^2 + (z0-z1)^2)

[young knoll]

Manhattan distance

[wispy wyvern]

so, what do i do exactly? xD

[fluid river]

?jd-s

[undone axle]

[fluid river]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/util/BoundingBox.html

BoundingBox#contains(placedBlockX, placedBlockY, placedBlockz)

[wispy wyvern]

ultimately, what i wanna do is a custom money machine for rankup servers, which will then merge to an already placed machine within the defined radius

[fluid river]

w8

your beacon is custom block

or just a simple one

[wispy wyvern]

beacon was an example

i'll use gold block for my machine

[fluid river]

is it a custom block with nbt on chunk or smth

or just a simple block

with coords in config or smth

[wispy wyvern]

no, at the moment will be just a normal gold_block

[fluid river]

then

[wispy wyvern]

it has a custom name, but not any nbt

[fluid river]

when you just place a golden block

you loop through all blocks in radius 5

and if there is another golden block

with custom name

you cancel the blockplace + send message

[wispy wyvern]

i use kotlin for android apps only

[regal geyser]

yeah better than java

i code java too, but kotlin is just simpler

[wispy wyvern]

so i make a for loop for both z and x and put this in both?

[fluid river]

and y too

[sterile token]

Better, is not better its needs more resources than Java m

[fluid river]

yes

                }
            }
        }

[sterile token]

Oh Nice, did You code an api?

[echo basalt]

yea

I'm just making scripts atm

[fluid river]

ye

[sterile token]

Wow looks really good

[echo basalt]

imma make some look and lookentity stuff

[sterile token]

Indirectly a simple IA

[echo basalt]

yea

basic AI, no variables no nothing

made it in like 2 hours

the dialogue system is something else I have

[sterile token]

Ai? I clnfused it with IA

Arent fue same?

[echo basalt]

AI is the english name

IA is your localized name

[wispy wyvern]

so, the block should be my already placed gold block, right?

[sterile token]

Ohhh ok right that males more sense nos

[fluid river]

no, the block you currently place

[echo basalt]

dialogues look like this

and I can associate code with buttons

[wispy wyvern]

oh, so this will create a radius of 5 around the block im placing and unplace if theres is a gold_block within the bounding box?

[sterile token]

Wow, and what happen with the menus api, did You re write as You mention it some months ago

[echo basalt]

yea I did

config-wise it's the same

[fluid river]

yes exactly

[tardy delta]

I was working on a pathfunding algorithm in class today, maybe some day ill be able to implement mob ai

[fluid river]

but this algorithm would run for every golden block placed on the server

but we can't do anything about it

[wispy wyvern]

that's fine, it would be only placed inside plots which are all more than 5 blocks away from each other

so this will just prevent the player from placing my custom block too close

and i'll then try to make a way of merging the blocks into the existing one, so it stacks

[sterile token]

Oh You created a config api named config-wise, it's prívate i can suppouse

[echo basalt]

but the new menu engine has a whole layer, element & selection system

[echo basalt]

no

[sterile token]

Oh My bad i understand what ever haha

[echo basalt]

menu system is complex now

[sterile token]

Im really tired i havent sleep

Oh lol it's such a huge library*

[wispy wyvern]

i'm trying to make a Rankup Money Machine, idk if you've ever played rankups with that feature

[echo basalt]

It's the smallest "big library" we use

This new animation scripting system integrates npcs and dialogues together

you can also reload dialogues and scripts in runtime

[sterile token]

Oh Nice

Buts is the same lib

?

[fluid river]

no ig

[wispy wyvern]

you know spawners? that stacks mobs and then you get loot from, lets say, 245x rabbits?

same idea, but with a machine

[echo basalt]

yea

it's like 750kb rn

[wispy wyvern]

and btw, it didn't prevent my block from placing

and why do you need blockAgains and boundingbox

[wispy wyvern]

the boundingbox i thought i would need it

and block against was my first attempt to remove block when i placed them against another gold block

and it worked, but its not used so

only block is used

[fluid river]

so

[fluid river]

.

[wispy wyvern]

yes

[fluid river]

does your logger log smth

[wispy wyvern]

yes

whenever i place a block

[fluid river]

well you forgot to cancel the event

before return;

[wispy wyvern]

i tried cancelling the event without the return

would it make a difference?

[fluid river]

you need to both cancel and return

[wispy wyvern]

ok

[fluid river]

cancel
return

[wispy wyvern]

doesn't let me place any block

[fluid river]

near gold one

or just anywhere

[wispy wyvern]

anywhere

it logs whenever i place a block

and then removes it

[fluid river]

can you send your latest version of code

oh i see

i'm dumb

your block is also in the radius 5

which you just placed

you need to add one more if

or

try cancelling the event before loop

and after the loop setCancelled(false);

so if loop haven't found any golden block in radius 5, code goes to the next line after loop

which is setCancelled(false)

@EventHandler
public void onMachinePlace(BlockPlaceEvent event) {
    Block block = event.getBlock();
    if (block.getType() != Material.GOLD_BLOCK) return;
    event.setCancelled(true):
    for (double x = block.getX() - 5; x <= block.getX() +5; x++) {
        for (double z = block.getZ() - 5; z <= block.getZ() +5; z++) {
            for (double y = block.getY() - 5; y <= block.getY() +5; y++) {
                if (block.getWorld().getBlockAt((int) x, (int) y, (int) z).getType() == Material.GOLD_BLOCK) {
                    Bukkit.getLogger().info("Gold block within 5 block radius.");
                    return;
                }
            }
        }
    }
    event.setCancelled(false);
}```

like this

[wispy wyvern]

i'll try

[fluid river]

if this doesn't work, then you need one more line in the loop

What could be the reason for me not being able to import EntityArmorStand properly?

[wispy wyvern]

it didn't work

[fluid river]

your dependency

[fluid river]

does logger log anything?

[heavy mural]

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

            <scope>provided</scope>
            <classifier>remapped-mojang</classifier>
        </dependency>```
Thought this dependency would cover it hmm

[wispy wyvern]

idk, i need to go now, i'll try again later

see ya, and thanks for the help anyways

[fluid river]

@EventHandler
public void onMachinePlace(BlockPlaceEvent event) {
    Block block = event.getBlock();
    if (block.getType() != Material.GOLD_BLOCK) return;
    int pX = block.getBlockX(), pY = block.getBlockY(), pZ = block.getBlockZ();
    for (int x = pX - 5; x <= pX + 5; x++) {
        for (int y = pY - 5; y <= pY + 5; y++) {
            for (int z = pZ - 5; z <= pZ + 5; z++) {
                if (x == pX && y == pY && z == pZ) continue;
                if (block.getWorld().getBlockAt(x, y, z).getType() == Material.GOLD_BLOCK) {
                    Bukkit.getLogger().info("Gold block within 5 block radius.");
                    event.setCancelled(true);
                    return;
                }
            }
        }
    }
}```

here it is

should work 99%

[rose aspen]

Hello friends, do you know any good "image map api"?

Currently i'm working on a coupon project, where players can interact with fancy looking Material.FILLED_MAP items.
I tried the built-in map api, but somehow after a server restart, the map gets empty and won't stack with the new "same maps".

[fluid river]

🚨

[tawny remnant]

My grappling isnt working and its giving erors, can anyone help me please? https://paste.md-5.net/ifaqekadol.pl

[livid dove]

Sorry I'm late what is this doing? Generally curious

[fluid river]

cancelling block placement of gold if there is another gold block nearby

[young knoll]

Can’t have too much gold in one place

[fluid river]

yes

[young knoll]

Might cause a local economic collapse

[fluid river]

true

[tawny remnant]

the cooldown one?:

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

[heavy mural]

are you sure?

import org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_19_R2.CraftWorld;
import net.minecraft.network.protocol.game.ClientboundSetEntityDataPacket;
import net.minecraft.world.entity.Entity;
import net.minecraft.world.entity.EntityType;
import net.minecraft.world.entity.decoration.ArmorStand;
import net.minecraft.world.level.Level;
import net.minecraft.network.Connection;
import net.minecraft.network.protocol.Packet;
import net.minecraft.network.protocol.game.ClientboundAddEntityPacket;```
all other imports seem to work, just not the EntityArmorStand one

[fluid river]

it should be ArmorStand i guess

[heavy mural]

hmm okay

[fluid river]

EntityArmorStand might be nms one

[heavy mural]

yah I am trying to get the nms one

[tawny remnant]

meaning?

[livid dove]

Sweet I might give a wack at polishing it as there is one thing giving my poor brain a wobble.

What if they change their mind and want it as 6?

[tawny remnant]

meaning

how do i fix it

[heavy mural]

hmm

[fluid river]

cringe

ig

[young knoll]

EntityArmorStand was the spigot mapping name iirc

[fluid river]

need to change 5 to radius

[tender shard]

now paper stopped updating their javadocs

[fluid river]

might now have different name

the only possible reason

if you are getting nms one

[tender shard]

paper added a boolean to all SErverListPingEvent constructors, making it incompatible with spigot again, and don't even mention that in their javadocs

[fluid river]

cool

hello alex

[tender shard]

hi

[young knoll]

The mojmap import is

import net.minecraft.world.entity.decoration.ArmorStand;

[fluid river]

how's it goin'

[heavy mural]

so that would work too?

[tawny remnant]

alex can you help me with this

[fluid river]

it would be armorstand too, but not org.bukkit.entity

[tender shard]

cooldowns is null

[fluid river]

your cooldowns map is null

[tender shard]

btw why are yo uusing a plain map? I usually use a proper class for cooldowns so you don't have to recode the whole logic if you need a second cooldown

[fluid river]

maybe use 👀 to read 📖

[tender shard]

This is my cooldown class: https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/JeffLib/blob/master/core/src/main/java/com/jeff_media/jefflib/data/Cooldown.java
Javadocs: https://hub.jeff-media.com/javadocs/jefflib/com/jeff_media/jefflib/data/Cooldown.html

[heavy mural]

My problem might've been that I join on 1.19.4 (latest). While my code with NMS is 1.19.3 (Things might've changed)

oops

[young knoll]

No

.4 contains a ton of server content

[heavy mural]

ah nonetheless still errors, welp time to attempt fix

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: net.minecraft.world.entity.decoration.ArmorStand sadge times

[tender shard]

you didnt remap your jar

?nms

[undone axle]

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

[heavy mural]

thought I did :o

I'll redo

[tender shard]

if you would have remapped, it would be called net.minecraft.world.entity.decoration.EntityArmorStand instead

[heavy mural]

hmmm there has to be something I'm failing to do:
https://gyazo.com/a538ed8e4f3203a3ef46654177bdbaa2

[tender shard]

what the heck are you doing

in your code you must use the remapped name

which is just ArmorStand

?nms

[undone axle]

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

[young knoll]

And then maven will remap things when you build

[livid dove]

Ready for the big cringe?

Block place event

If its Gold block:
Grab x,y,z and save to an array list that is within a hashmap of chunks and lists (saved somewhere and initialised on enable).

Look for any locations that is:

Block-5<Location<Block+5

You've just turned a max of 125 loops into potentially less than 10

[keen horizon]

Could anyone help me merge 2 plugins so they both work at the same time they are simple combat plugins dual weild and perry plugin

[livid dove]

I could have a gander ^_^

[pseudo hazel]

where are you stuck

[tender shard]

?services

[undone axle]

If you wish to request or offer development/art/building/administration services, please do so at https://www.spigotmc.org/forums/services-recruitment-v2.54/

[tender shard]

or are you trying to do this yourself? if so, what's the issue

[keen horizon]

Well the dual weilding works but then when i try to perry when i have a sword in my offhand it doesnt work

[pseudo hazel]

i see

should be just about editing some event then right

like where it checks for the hand to parry

[keen horizon]

Ye

I would prefer if it was like i could use my dual weilding when not shifting and only perry when shifting which is in the config for dual weilding but not for perrying

[livid dove]

Does anyone have documentation for why a lot of nbt tags are stupid smooth brain and cause server lag?

I know of the concept but wanted to do some more reading up on the issue

[keen horizon]

do you reckon you could help me i dont rly know about developing plugins

[pseudo hazel]

well I know nothing about the plugins you are trying to use

first of all do you have the source code for both of them?

[keen horizon]

no

[tender shard]

edit: I'm stupid, looked at the wrong version

[keen horizon]

its not a big plugin tho its just 2 class files

[pseudo hazel]

?

how do you know its only 2 class files if you dont have it

[keen horizon]

i opened it with win rar

[pseudo hazel]

oh I see

so its obfuscated then

[tender shard]

then you should hire someone to do it

?services

[undone axle]

If you wish to request or offer development/art/building/administration services, please do so at https://www.spigotmc.org/forums/services-recruitment-v2.54/

[keen horizon]

idk what that means

[young knoll]

See paper is in kind of a weird place

It has a much bigger share of servers than spigot, but that is only because it supports 99% of spigot plugins

[pseudo hazel]

it means they garbled it up so noone can read it

[keen horizon]

o

so it cant be edited

[pseudo hazel]

I mean unless you can read what the class files say

[tender shard]

they break compatibility more and more every day

[young knoll]

I mean if they break compat with spigot plugins their share will drop

[wet breach]

you are forgetting there is more forks of spigot then there is of paper

[tender shard]

there's many things incompatible to spigot, it's just that it's usually small things and plugin devs use workarounds to support both

e.g. the monster of a class I just send

[wet breach]

I simply don't care to support paper

[young knoll]

I mean I can't lie their API is wonderful

But spigot is just too established for it to be practical

[wet breach]

easier to base off spigot then it is paper in my opinion

[tender shard]

edit: looked at the wrong version

[keen horizon]

i opened it with a decompiler

[tender shard]

edit: I'm stupid, looked at the wrong version

[young knoll]

Yeah that seems weird

[tender shard]

it's not even in the javadocs

according to the docs, the constructors are the same

[young knoll]

What even is the boolean

[tender shard]

but in reality, paper's constructors have an additional boolean parameter in every single one

[tender shard]

shouldSendChatPreview

[young knoll]

Isn't chat preview gone

[tender shard]

I don't know

[young knoll]

Mojang removed it

[wet breach]

so nothing to worry about then 🙂

[tender shard]

I'm forced to use paper 1.19.2 because in 1.19.3 they added their shitty paper-plugin.yml so MockBukkit doesn't work on 1.19.3 yet

[young knoll]

Ah

That's probably why

[wet breach]

one day they will stop depending on spigot

[young knoll]

And their share will plummet

[wet breach]

fine by me

[young knoll]

They would need to have a place to upload paper plugins first

[wet breach]

they do

[young knoll]

Kind of

It's just a forums

[tender shard]

did anybody actually ever use hangar?

[wet breach]

they have a beta thing called hangar

[young knoll]

Oh did hanger actually make it to beta?

[opal juniper]

yep

its quite good actually when it isnt hanging

[young knoll]

heh

No premium tho, how else will people exploit server owners make money

[wet breach]

anyways, I will be glad once paper is its own thing and then I don't have to hear about it hopefully anymore 🙂

[tender shard]

well people regularly join my discord because my plugins don't run on fabric

[young knoll]

And then devs will be forced to support it

[wet breach]

not me

[young knoll]

And then you'll need yet another implementation module

[wet breach]

people can complain all they want if my plugins don't work on some implementation I don't support anyways

not going to make me do anything about it lol

[grizzled oasis]

its possible to pick the particle of a specific block and use World#spawnParticle

[wet breach]

o.O

[tall dragon]

tryna display the breaking particles of a certain block?

[grizzled oasis]

yes

[tall dragon]

pretty sure you can do that by playing an effect using
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/World.html#playEffect(org.bukkit.Location,org.bukkit.Effect,int,int)

and this effect
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/Effect.html#STEP_SOUND

it will also play the block break sound tho. not sure if you can do it with just the particles

probably with packets but idk with the api

[young knoll]

You can

BLOCK_CRACK - Uses BlockData as DataType
BLOCK_DUST - Uses BlockData as DataType

[grizzled oasis]

yes but the step sound would be in the block im playing the effect because the particle i want to get are on top of the block where the particle will be displayed

[grizzled oasis]

how?

[tall dragon]

ah well there ya go

[young knoll]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/World.html#spawnParticle(org.bukkit.Particle,double,double,double,int,double,double,double,double,T)

Or any spawnParticle method that has that T param

[tall dragon]

and u supply BlockData of whatever block u wanna display particles as T

[grizzled oasis]

but how can i supply the blockdata in the particle

[tall dragon]

using this method

[tender shard]

why is there both a listener and an EventExecutor? Which of those am I going to use for the actual event listening logic? o0

[wet breach]

probably for registering custom events

or if you have an event class that extends

[tender shard]

it's actually to listen to normal events, I've used it before

it's so weird lol

[eternal night]

generally only ever implemented by the server

would not touch that if possible

[tender shard]

hm the javadocs don't say anything about it, and it's declared in PluginManager, not in SimplePluginManager

I just need it for a test class

[eternal night]

EventExecutor executor = new EventExecutor() {
    @Override
    public void execute(@NotNull Listener listener, @NotNull Event event) throws EventException {
        try {
            if (!eventClass.isAssignableFrom(event.getClass())) {
                return;
            }
            // Spigot start
            boolean isAsync = event.isAsynchronous();
            if (!isAsync) timings.startTiming();
            method.invoke(listener, event);
            if (!isAsync) timings.stopTiming();
            // Spigot end
        } catch (InvocationTargetException ex) {
            throw new EventException(ex.getCause());
        } catch (Throwable t) {
            throw new EventException(t);
        }
    }
};

this is the impl

basically its job is to trigger the listener event

or "execute" the listener

people do some nasty stuff in there from time to time

[tender shard]

weird, why is it in PluginManager and not in SimplePluginManager then :/

[eternal night]

you can do some dynamic type registration with it

[tender shard]

if I wanna return a CompletableFuture of which I already have the value, I'd do it like this right?

    public static CompletableFuture<String> getEffectiveMotd() {
        if(LOCALHOST == null) {
            return CompletableFuture.completedFuture(Bukkit.getMotd());
        }
        // Otherwise do some actual async stuff and use supplyAsync

[opal juniper]

yep

[tender shard]

thx

[opal juniper]

or do like some either thing but that looks good to me

[tender shard]

I just checked, the Listener is unnecessary - it doesn't do any logic, no method inside it gets called

I wonder what the listener is needed for

    @Test
    public void testMotdEvent() throws ExecutionException, InterruptedException {
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvent(ServerListPingEvent.class, new Listener() {
            @EventHandler
            public void onListPing(ServerListPingEvent event) {
                System.out.println("Listener called");
            }
        }, org.bukkit.event.EventPriority.NORMAL, (listener, event) -> {
            System.out.println("EventExecutor called");
        }, getPlugin());

        String motd = ServerUtils.getEffectiveMotd().get();
        System.out.println("Motd: " + motd);
    }

this only prints "EventExecutor called"
