intellij minecraft dev plugin

[remote swallow]

run maven package instead of just mvn

[terse ore]

Hey guys

https://github.com/kyrptonaught/customportalapi

I am trying to implement that but modImplementation nor include are working in my build.gradle

[remote swallow]

its a mod not a plugin lib

[rough drift]

they're making a mod

[remote swallow]

ah

[rough drift]

modImplementation is a fabric thing iirc

[remote swallow]

do you have the required fabric plugin

[terse ore]

omfg I can't read

[bitter steeple]

Seams the simple way is to Bukkit.dispatchCommand(console, s.toString()); the summon command
Good alternative

[small timber]

hm?

wdym

[remote swallow]

that error is saying dont just run maven it needs a goal

[small timber]

so how do I change it

[quaint mantle]

How can I make an unbreakable block mineable/breakable?

[small timber]

I'm running an intellij configuration

how do I chang eit

[remote swallow]

edit the config, then you should see a bar under the name, has Run above it add package or whatever goal you want to execute in there

[quaint mantle]

How can I set block breaking animation level?

[sullen marlin]

sendBlockDamage

[quaint mantle]

aight thanks

[small timber]

you mean the pom.xml?

what do i edit there

[remote swallow]

you said you used an intellij config, i thought you meant run configuration

[tender shard]

Just double click on „package“

In the maven tab under Lifecycle

[smoky oak]

what are you using? I always used mushroom blocks and update suppression but that doesnt support transparent

[young knoll]

Noteblocks are generally better, more states

Those are ItemDisplays tho

Hello. I am trying to serialize a player's inventory. I registered a custom TypeAdapter for it, but I do get the Error: `

my code:

                .registerTypeAdapter(Inventory.class, new PlayerInventorySerializer())
                .create();
        FileWriter fw;
        try {
        fw = new FileWriter(file);
        gson.toJson(inventory, fw);
        
        fw.close();
        
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

@remote swallow how can I do that?

[worldly ingot]

Don't know what your PlayerInventorySerializer looks like but it seems like GSON is trying to serialize an Optional and not really knowing how to do that lol

[small timber]

ye what do i edit in the run configuration

[remote swallow]

the goal

[orchid gazelle]

how's that possible lol?

[worldly ingot]

I dunno. No clue what your serializer looks like

[orchid gazelle]

public class PlayerInventorySerializer implements JsonSerializer<Inventory>, JsonDeserializer<Inventory> {
    
    @Override
    public JsonElement serialize(Inventory inventory, Type typeOfSrc, JsonSerializationContext context) {
        JsonObject obj = new JsonObject();
        String uuid = ((Player)inventory.getHolder()).getUniqueId().toString();
        String invString = Base64.inventoryToBase64(inventory);
        
        obj.addProperty("id", uuid);
        obj.addProperty("inv", invString);
        
        return obj;
    }

    
    @Override
    public Inventory deserialize(JsonElement json, Type typeOfT, JsonDeserializationContext context) throws JsonParseException {
        JsonObject obj = json.getAsJsonObject();
        String id = obj.get("id").getAsString();
        String invString = obj.get("inv").getAsString();
        
        if(Bukkit.getPlayer(UUID.fromString(id)) == null) throw new NullPointerException("Player must be online for this inventory to get serialized");
        Inventory inventory = null;
        
        try {
            inventory = Base64.playerInventoryFromBase64(invString, Bukkit.getPlayer(UUID.fromString(id)));
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Some Error occured while trying to deserialize a Player-Inventory", e);
        }
        
        if(inventory == null) throw new IllegalArgumentException("Some Error occured while trying to deserialize a Player-Inventory");
        
        return inventory;
    }

    
}

thats the Serializer

[remote swallow]

do what

[tender shard]

nms "unit tests" lol

[orchid gazelle]

lmao

[young knoll]

What happens if you press no

Does it start crying

[orchid gazelle]

yes

[remote swallow]

what a command

[patent socket]

"you need to pass a plugin instance"

[remote swallow]

you need an instance of your main class, use di, a static getter or MainClassName.getPlugin(MainClassName.class)

Guide to dependency injection: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/using-dependency-injection/

[sterile token]

InventoryHolder doesnt have an uuid

[orchid gazelle]

any ideas whats wrong here? I cannot see anything what could rn

[sterile token]

I mean none inventory contains a unique id

[tender shard]

"jefflibtest"

[tender shard]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/getting-your-main-classes-instance-in-another-class/

[tender shard]

getPlugin(Class) is static

[young knoll]

How disappointing

[lost matrix]

Still a problem? Just looked here. You need to register your serializer as TypeHierarchyAdapter.

[sterile token]

Also menu holders doesnt have uuids!!! 🤔

[orchid gazelle]

yes still a problem. But maybe I found the actual problem. An InventoryHolder does not contain an uud

[worldly ingot]

Did you see my message on your lib and what all has API?

[orchid gazelle]

uhm now I gotta somehow pass args to the Serializer lol

[sterile token]

Is what i told you 2 times exactly 🤣

[tender shard]

no

where?

[worldly ingot]

<#general message>

[orchid gazelle]

oh yeah sorry I overread it because you linked it to the other guy's message lol

[lost matrix]

I didnt look at the serialisation method itself. You should ofc just serialize the content and not the InventoryHolder

[sterile token]

ohh my bad i just realize that

[orchid gazelle]

well but its specificly a PlayerInventory. So it needs to be associated with a Player

[sterile token]

So serialize the player uuid + extra data (idk what you saving that why, "extra data")

[lost matrix]

Not it really doesnt. You cant serialize a PlayerInventory anyways.

[orchid gazelle]

well how do I pass the Player as an argument?

[orchid gazelle]

why not?

[sterile token]

Oh right, no you cant

[orchid gazelle]

Im encoding it to b64 and then writing it to a json with the needed extra-data

[lost matrix]

Because you cant instantiate it.

[remote swallow]

i mean just getPlugin()

[sterile token]

You can save an inventory

Not a player Inventory

[lost matrix]

You should only serialize the content (ItemStack[])

[orchid gazelle]

well you can just create an inventory with the player object and the data

[lost matrix]

Do you want to serialize a PlayerInventory or a chest Inventory?

[orchid gazelle]

Player

[lost matrix]

Then -> You cant

[orchid gazelle]

(its a failsafe only dedicated to players)

[lost matrix]

Serialize the content

You cant create a player inventory

[orchid gazelle]

but I can just get the Inventory with the deserializer and then write the contents to the player-inv

[hazy parrot]

Why not just write content directly

[lost matrix]

Ok but why would you want to do that? You are just creating a dummy inventory which has no purpose and
gets discarded again

[orchid gazelle]

I could use just the Contents for sure, but that would complicate things for me lol

would need to split armorcontents, offhand and actual contents

[lost matrix]

Why?

[orchid gazelle]

anyways, im fine with the player-inventory as this code is just a failsafe getting executed on the absolute heaviest edge-case

[orchid gazelle]

because tbh I did not really learn about how Inventories work in depth

so, can I pass a player to the TypeAdapter?

[lost matrix]

No. A Player object contains a tremendous amount of data that cant be serialized easily.
The default ReflectiveTypeAdapterFactory wont be able to resolve at least half of the fields.

What are you trying to do?

[tardy delta]

uh oh gson

[orchid gazelle]

nono I do not wanna serialize a player

I just want to write the UUID of the player lol

[lost matrix]

Take another step back: What is your plan

[orchid gazelle]

Serialize a Player-Inventory with a bit of extra data to a JSON file

[tardy delta]

so serialize the itemstacks, and what extra data?

[young knoll]

Their UUID it seems

[lost matrix]

Then create a class that looks like this:

public class PlayerData {

  public PlayerData(Player player) {
    this.inventoryContent = player.getInventory().getContents();
    this.playerId = player.getUniqueId();
  }

  protected PlayerData() {
    inventoryContent = null;
    playerId = null;
  }

  private final ItemStack[] inventoryContent;
  private final UUID playerId;
  private double someVariable;

}

And register a serializer for ItemStack.class
Gson will handle the rest for you

[patent socket]

It asked me to put a semicolon in, but now the ";>" is underlined red. Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimer(Dialogue.getPlugin(Dialogue.class) -;>

[remote swallow]

Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimer(Dialogue.getPluign(Dialouge.class) -> {
    code 
}, deley, interval);

[lost matrix]

Dont tinker with lambdas if you dont understand them.
Just create a class which implements Runnable and pass it to your runTaskTimer method.

Example

SomeTask task = new SomeTask();
Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimer(Dialogue.getPlugin(Dialogue.class), task, 10L, 10L);

[smoky oak]

player has

[lost matrix]

public class SomeTask implements Runnable {
  
  @Override
  public void run() {
    // Do something
  }
  
}

[patent socket]

This all runs in a command though.

[lost matrix]

Shouldnt be a problem

[patent socket]

It says Cannot resolve method 'runTaskTimer(T, SomeTask, long, long)'

[lost matrix]

Just create a class which implements Runnable and pass it to your runTaskTimer method.

Here are some links to get you started on learning Java:

The last one is the only official one, however some of those concepts assume that you already know a bit about programming.

[tender shard]

getPlugin()? How would that work? I was referring to your "MyMainClass.getPlugin(MyMainClass.class)"

[patent socket]

I did, and I get the same error.

[remote swallow]

wheni said static i meant a getter in the class, getPlugin/getInstance etc etc

[tardy delta]

just use dependency injection, way cleaner for this purpose

[tender shard]

I am only talking about the "MyMainClass.getPlugin(MyMainClass.class)" part lol

[quaint mantle]

public void makeEntityLookAtPlayer(Player player, LivingEntity entity) {
Location entityLoc = entity.getLocation();
Location playerLoc = player.getLocation();
double deltaX = playerLoc.getX() - entityLoc.getX();
double deltaY = playerLoc.getY() - entityLoc.getY();
double deltaZ = playerLoc.getZ() - entityLoc.getZ();

    double yaw = Math.atan2(deltaZ, deltaX);
    double pitch = Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(deltaX * deltaX + deltaZ * deltaZ), deltaY) + Math.PI;

    int yawAngle = (int) Math.toDegrees(-yaw);
    int pitchAngle = (int) Math.toDegrees(-pitch);

    PacketPlayOutEntityHeadRotation headRotationPacket = new PacketPlayOutEntityHeadRotation(((CraftEntity) entity).getHandle(), (byte) yawAngle);
    ((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().playerConnection.sendPacket(headRotationPacket);

    PacketPlayOutEntityLook lookPacket = new PacketPlayOutEntityLook(entity.getEntityId(), (byte) yawAngle, (byte) pitchAngle, true);
    ((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().playerConnection.sendPacket(lookPacket);
}

What is wrong with this code?

[remote swallow]

ah

it should return a Plugin instance right?

i thought thats what that did

[lost matrix]

Just set the direction of the entity and get the angle that way.
Also:

byte packetAngle = (byte) ((int) (mcAngle * (256F / 360F)))

[tender shard]

all I wanted to say is that it's a static method declared in JavaPlugin, so you'd do JavaPlugin.getPlugin(MyMainClass.class) instead of MyMainClass.getPlugin(MyMainClass.class) 😛

[lost matrix]

You can set the direction vector of your entity and simply call

    byte yRot = (byte) ((int) (location.getYaw() * (256.0F / 360.0F)));
    byte xRot = (byte) ((int) (location.getPitch() * (256.0F / 360.0F)));

    Vector direction = fromLocation.toVector().subtract(toLocation.toVector());

[quaint mantle]

my math is working already, the issues is in: PacketPlayOutEntityHeadRotation headRotationPacket = new PacketPlayOutEntityHeadRotation(((CraftEntity) entity).getHandle(), (byte) yawAngle);
((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().playerConnection.sendPacket(headRotationPacket);

    PacketPlayOutEntityLook lookPacket = new PacketPlayOutEntityLook(entity.getEntityId(), (byte) yawAngle, (byte) pitchAngle, true);
    ((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().playerConnection.sendPacket(lookPacket);

[tender shard]

and what is the issue?

[quaint mantle]

CraftPlayer cannot be resolved to a type

[tender shard]

?nms

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

[quaint mantle]

[tender shard]

can't be

[young knoll]

We should start calling it NM

[tender shard]

otherwise you wouldn't call it PacketPlayOutEntityLook

[quaint mantle]

my other CraftPlayer references working

[quiet ice]

Did you import the class?

[quaint mantle]

ofc

[young knoll]

Maybe they are pre mojmap

[lost matrix]

Your math is not right. Angles are in 256 steps, not in 360

[tender shard]

if you would be using remapped NMS, you would use "ClientboundMoveEntityPacket$Rot" instead of "PacketPlayOutEntity$PacketPlayOutEntityLook"

[quaint mantle]

bingo tho, I forgot to save my code in VSC, I'm coding in VSC then building in Intellij, using same workspace

[young knoll]

Umm

[lost matrix]

[young knoll]

Okay

[quiet ice]

what the hell

[hazy parrot]

most basic setup

[lost matrix]

Some people just love to spend time with build time problems. Like what?

[tender shard]

also claiming "already using" when getting sent a link about remapped in maven while using neither maven nor remapped... lol

[young knoll]

You see InteliJ is only a compiler

[lost matrix]

Write your code in Word and compile using javac. Will cause less problems probably,

[quaint mantle]

I tot u were talking about mvn's lib

mvn's lib?

whut

[echo basalt]

not even

[young knoll]

No it is

[quiet ice]

You mean maven?

[young knoll]

Trust me

[quiet ice]

I sure hope you mean maven.

[echo basalt]

IntellIJ is a text editor

Maven is a build tool

[quaint mantle]

nah I don't

[echo basalt]

That delegates into JavaC

[young knoll]

Shhh

[hazy parrot]

looks like you didn't read previous conversation

[echo basalt]

don't spread misinformation

[echo basalt]

I didn't

I just parachuted here

[hazy parrot]

[young knoll]

IntelliJ is actually a 3D modelling software

[hazy parrot]

fork of cad

[desert frigate]

have u found a solution?

[tender shard]

spoon of cbd

[echo basalt]

if we think about it deeply enough

every single program

is just an assembly wrapper

[quiet ice]

no. False.

[echo basalt]

!True

[tender shard]

not really, assembly is still a language that needs to be "compiled" into machine code

[young knoll]

Why is your true capitalized

Is this python

[tender shard]

in python wouldnt it be not True?

[young knoll]

Ah crap

We’re in some weird hybrid language now

[hazy parrot]

its wrapper object for binary 1 with overloaded not operator

[tender shard]

javascript

// This prints 10:
alert(++[[]][+[]]+[+[]]);

// And this "fail":
alert((![]+[])[+[]]+(![]+[])[+!+[]]+([![]]+[][[]])[+!+[]+[+[]]]+(![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]]);

more javascript:

    parseInt('06'); // 6
    parseInt('08'); // 0

[hazy parrot]

there is actually some kind of explanation for this

[hazy parrot]

but tf is this

[tender shard]

Ill send the explanation in 5 mins

Cant find it rn

Bit i still got it open on the other computer

[young knoll]

It’s parsing it in base 8

[tender shard]

Yeah but then why is it 0

Oh because it fails

Why doesnt it throw an error

[hazy parrot]

https://goksi.tech/‍⁠⁠‌‍​⁠‌‍⁠​​

[young knoll]

I just learned the hard way that JavaScript thinks the leading zero indicates an octal integer, and since there is no "8" or "9" in base-8, the function returns zero. Like it or not, this is by design.

[hazy parrot]

funny

[tender shard]

Javascript is shit, it should throw an error instead of using 0

Well everything thats not strictly typed is shit imho lol

Should I just use YAMLConfiguration?

or stick to JSON still

[tender shard]

first of all, you should use code tags

[remote swallow]

?codeblock

[undone axle]

You can use the discord code block format to display code or just text in a more pleasing way:
```java
public class MyPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
@Override
public void onEnable() {

}

}```
Becomes:

public class MyPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {

    }
}```

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".

I'd reccomend you use luck perms api cuz you'll beable to do that

[eternal oxide]

use Vault as it supports many permission plugins

[river oracle]

True

I forget Vault Permissions

yo @echo basalt I got the random Animation working. Thanks for the idea!

[sterile token]

Why needs a return statement?

🤔

Yeah me too, i always have issues with math - PD: sorry for pinging

[inland siren]

let’s you handle the result of it properly

cause it’s running on a different thread

[sterile token]

Yes i know its handle on other thread

But why the issue of the return statement?

So far voids dont return any value, you can just "return" in the way of stopping code block for being executed

[sterile token]

Can you re eleaborate what you mean? Because i cant understand the reason

But if i add the "return" its gives another issue

[hazy parrot]

because its using supplier interface ?

[sterile token]

But im providing a void?

🤔

[hazy parrot]

why using supplyAsync then ?

[sterile token]

Voids dont return anything

[hazy parrot]

if you doesn't need result of computation

[sterile token]

what should i use?

complete async?

[hazy parrot]

what you want to achieve

run code after that ?

[sterile token]

Yes

And being executed async

just like you will done with normal completale future, but without handling any value let say

[hazy parrot]

thenRun ig

[sterile token]

hmn

Im returning a CompletableFuture<Void>

So i cant

[hazy parrot]

thenRun is returning CompletableFuture<Void>

[sterile token]

This is my code, i dont mean that

    @Override
    public CompletableFuture<Void> insert(String field, Object value) {
        return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync((Void) -> {
            try (Jedis jedis = redis.getClient().getResource()) {
                jedis.hset(name, field, redis.getInfo().getGson().toJson(value));
            }
        }, redis.getInfo().getExecutor());
    }

Thats on my RedisCache class, so when you run an insert

[hazy parrot]

oh, just change suppyAsync to runAsync lol

[sterile token]

ohh thanks

I was meaning that

I mean i didnt explain well what i was needing

🤦‍♂️

Im re writting my redis library from the scratch 💀

y2k bro, what happened with your lib?? I cant find it any more, not even the commands one. If you see this message dm me

[river oracle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/tutorial-data-storage-with-ndatabase-a-database-framework-for-minecraft.595340/ any thoughts on this resource anyone. I'm honestly a big fan :P Mostly cuz this is kinda what i used on the server I worked for. I'd be curious

[river oracle]

Moved

i'll send you

[inland siren]

i would advise hopping into completeablefutures javadoc before continuing

[sterile token]

I read them but not taken the correct time

Just a fast view over them

[granite herald]

I am working on a item exchange plugin. How can I order the strings in the autocomplete?

[eternal oxide]

you can't

they are alphabetical

[sterile token]

Cant u something like an index based?

[granite herald]

Ok. Means the only way would be:

1. _set amount
2. 1
3. 16
   and so on

[sterile token]

I think you can loop over the completations, sort them via index and collect back to list

But im not sure if that will work

@granite herald

[eternal oxide]

no

[sterile token]

why? If prefix are sorted tho and they sort them via priority

🤔

[eternal oxide]

the tab complete list is auto sorted alphabetically, you have no control over order

[sterile token]

so shity, thats a bad api design

[granite herald]

will it do like that. Not so beautiful but better and not in order. Most important is the first string

[eternal oxide]

if you add a prefix that will be included IN your tab complete

I dont think so. Im trying to create classis MC team.

Oh I get it working. I changed boar variable from manager.getNewScoreboard(); to manager.getMainScoreboard();

[young knoll]

It’s not up to spigot, the client sorts them

[sterile token]

Oh that males sense

[sterile token]

The first method Will always return a new socoreboaed, so changes are not apply let Say

[trim lake]

But, affter this change Im able to see team with /team list command thats what I needed. I dont need scoreboard it self. I need only team to hide player names and make toggle able for admin to see them.

So probably that changed something I guess?

[oak locust]

is it possible to use hex colors in the scoreboard?

[sullen marlin]

Text? Yes. Team colours? No

[oak locust]

really?? i tried displaying hex colored text but i couldn't get it to work

[sullen marlin]

What code and what didn't work

[oak locust]

the code is deleted now because i tried it a while ago. i wanted to ask here if it works before i try to get it to work again

but if you say that it works i am gonna try

[young knoll]

Hex works pretty much everywhere

Afaik

[oak locust]

How can I make this work?

objective.getScore("&#CCCCFFtext").setScore(1);```

[sullen marlin]

Suggest you look at how to use hex colours

ChatColor class

[oak locust]

alright i guess i'm gonna do that now

thanks

[inland siren]

you absolutely do in commands?

[rough ibex]

yes, but the list you return is sent to the client

and then the client sorts it on their side

[tepid furnace]

Soo there is no public-facing API that can be used to release plugin updates automatically. Am I correct?

[split gull]

is this the channel for plugin dev help?

im assuming it is

is it already possible to use spigot 1.19.4 R1 as a dependency in plugins?

[tepid furnace]

because I've found this: https://github.com/Kir-Antipov/mc-publish
It supports other major websites that also host Bukkit plugins, but it doesn't support Spigot.

[graceful oak]

Hey guys I have a question about learning new things for coding plugins. I went straight into spigot never really sat down and learned everything in Java but I know other languages like C and Python pretty well which is how I got started and now im in a weird point where I know how to do things and dont really know how to improve to get better. At this point im just coding what I want to make is there any recommendations on what to do to get better at something like this? Are any of the spigot programs you have to pay for online good to do to improve skills?

[split gull]

I dont have that much spigot experience but i can say for sure that one of your best bet is to develop difficult things, stuff you'd avoid due to the sheer difficulty

[wet breach]

Create a list of things you dont know and things you want to know more in java. Then you can devise possible plugins that either can make use of those things or you can just try those things out. Come here if you want some concepts explained or if you want some more in depth knowledge about something. Plenty of us here have a deep understanding of java and the associated jvm.

[wet breach]

Most things are considered difficult to a person not because it actually is rather being inexperienced with that thing.

[split gull]

i completely agree

[vast junco]

Is it possible/feasible to dispatch console commands without logging the output to the console using nms?

[remote swallow]

you might be able to make your own impl of ConsoleCommandSender and get results from that, i remember someone doing that for getting results of another plugins commands

[sullen marlin]

?xy

[undone axle]

http://xyproblem.info/

[sullen marlin]

Why do you want to dispatch console commands is the real question

[lost matrix]

^

[lost matrix]

You can do everything a command would do just by using some code.
Thats preferable and also not logged on default.

[sacred wyvern]

WIth running commands my command calls an external API and does some processing. Sometimes the API runs a little slow as it processes. I just got this message in the Spigot server log:
Can't keep up! Is the server overloaded? Running 5817ms or 116 ticks behind
Do I need to be concerned about thread blocking for multiple commands running at once? Should I write the command in async fashion ("If that's possible not a Java engineer")

[lost matrix]

IO should never be done on the main thread. One tick has only 50ms of processing time. After that the next
tick is started. If you now request external API through http requests then that can take upwards of 100ms.
This means you are blocking the entire server (chunks, mobs, players etc) from being ticked with your request.

[sacred wyvern]

Gotcha thank you

[lost matrix]

Here are some things you should always do on a separate thread:

• Reading/Writing Files
• Accessing Databases
• Web requests of any type (like http)

[sacred wyvern]

I think I remember creating threads about 10 years ago for a different Java project. I'll take a look. Thanks again for the advice.

[sacred wyvern]

Is loading the Spigot config file something that should be done on the same thread? I need that loaded on Plugin enabled before other processes can run.

[lost matrix]

You can just use the BukkitScheduler. It has methods for that.
Ofc there is always the possibility of using your own thread, executor or CompletableFutures.

[chrome beacon]

Highly recommend TaskChain by Aikar makes things clean

https://github.com/aikar/TaskChain

[lost matrix]

Not sure how maintained that is

[chrome beacon]

It hasn't been updated in a while but I don't think it needs to be

[lost matrix]

In your OnEnable you dont want to do anything async. Its ok to block there with IO.

[sacred wyvern]

I'll take a look thank you!

[tawny remnant]

is it possible to install nms on a project that is not even in maven? (Intellij)

[chrome beacon]

?bootstrap

[undone axle]

Bootstrap Jar
The main spigot-1.18.jar is now a bootstrap jar which contains all libraries. You cannot directly depend on this jar. You should depend on Spigot/Spigot-API/target/spigot-api-1.18-R0.1-SNAPSHOT-shaded.jar, or the entire contents of the bundler directory from your server, or use a dependency manager such as Maven or Gradle to handle this automatically.

Please read the release notes for further information: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/9-years-of-spigotmc-spigot-bungeecord-1-18-1-18-1-release.534760/#post-4305163

[chrome beacon]

You can but I don't recommend it

[tawny remnant]

okay

[lost matrix]

Its possible but you need to depend on several different jars

[tawny remnant]

is it bad

[chrome beacon]

Or just the shaded one as stated in the bot message

[lost matrix]

That doesnt contain nms

[chrome beacon]

ah

Thought it did

[lost matrix]

After looking through the BuildTools folder it looks like this contains nms:
BuildTools\Spigot\Spigot-Server\target\spigot-1.19.4-R0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

[tender shard]

why don't you just turn it into a maven project?

btw you'll have to run the specialsource .jar manually to reobfuscate if you don't use any build tool

[lost matrix]

Honestly at some point you will have to learn using Maven or Gradle.
I would suggest Maven. Watch a tutorial and then use this Intellij plugin to generate
a clean maven project for Minecraft:

[remote swallow]

WOOOO MC DEV

[muted dirge]

I'll be happy if someone help me.

[remote swallow]

whats Main.java 26

[muted dirge]

getCommand("social-media").setExecutor(new SocialMediaCommand(this));

[remote swallow]

what about line 16

just to check are these commands in plugin.yml

[muted dirge]

calling the setupCommands method

[muted dirge]

setupCommands();

[wet breach]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[muted dirge]

wich?

main.java or socialmediaCommand.java

[remote swallow]

if its error on the set executor its not in plugin.yml

[wet breach]

First main class since that is where the error is specified. Specifically in the onenable. Something is null

And instead of us guessing easier if we can see code to help you track down where it is at

[muted dirge]

Main.java:

• https://paste.md-5.net/siyenibewu.java

[remote swallow]

paste plugin.yml too

[muted dirge]

plugin.yml:

• https://paste.md-5.net/oxagadipoc.makefile

[wet breach]

Your update checker is flawed

[muted dirge]

forgot that.

i just want to fix the issue

[remote swallow]

commands are all correct in plugin.yml, nothing looks wrong in main class this error doesnt match the code

[muted dirge]

wait a minute...

[wet breach]

Lets see socialmedia class

Since you said that was the offending line

[remote swallow]

inb4 the jar wasnt updated

[muted dirge]

i think i loaded wrong version

[wet breach]

Alright. Well now i can explain the flaw in the update checker

Normally when you build spigot via buildtools the version will be correct. However if instead you build it manually it will say version git-unknown

[muted dirge]

yay

no errors

lets test

[remote swallow]

https://github.com/The-Epic/EpicSpigotLib/blob/master/src/main/java/me/epic/spigotlib/SimpleSemVersion.java
https://github.com/The-Epic/EpicSpigotLib/blob/master/src/main/java/me/epic/spigotlib/UpdateChecker.java#L17-L39

private void initializeUpdateChecker() {
        UpdateChecker checker = new UpdateChecker(this, PLUGIN_ID);
        SimpleSemVersion current = SimpleSemVersion.fromString(this.getDescription().getVersion());

        Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimerAsynchronously(this, () -> checker.getVersion(version -> {
            if (SimpleSemVersion.fromString(version).isNewerThan(current)) {
                ConsoleCommandSender sender = Bukkit.getConsoleSender();
                sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "=".repeat(70));
                sender.sendMessage(
                        ChatColor.GOLD + "A new version of MineTweaks is available: " + ChatColor.DARK_AQUA + version);
                sender.sendMessage(
                        ChatColor.GOLD + "Download it at https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/minetweaks.96757/");
                sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "=".repeat(70));
            }
        }), 0, 20l * 60 * 60);
    }

That is probably the better-ish update checker, checks for major.minor.patch updates so should notify people on any update

dont question if minetweaks is mine

[wet breach]

Nvm ignore what i said read you update check wrong

Thought you were checking server version lol

[remote swallow]

[muted dirge]

hell nah

💀

[remote swallow]

the only thing this doesnt cover is snapshot builds

[wet breach]

Anyways problem solved it seems

[muted dirge]

wait until i test it on **LocalHost Craft **

@wet breach

you know how to make actionbar stay?

nvm

[young knoll]

Hmmmmm

[smoky oak]

lets assuming im trying to profile something that only takes a few milliseconds. How can i obtain the time it takes for System.getCurrentNanos() to... well, run?

[lost matrix]

Profiling should generally be done using a dedicated framework like jmh.
But if you just want to manually measure time then use System.nanoTime() (twice) because
it has a better relative accuracy. System.currentTimeMillis() has a better global accuracy.

[smoky oak]

see im asking cuz running a profiler on a remote spigot server is kinda difficult

[lost matrix]

Hm?

If we are speaking about something like VisualVM then remote profiling is not that hard (if you have root access)

Also Spark deploys a whole profiler itself.
It really depend on what it is you are trying to profile.

[sterile token]

Why is the Main thread being blocked while doing:

ComoletableFuture<Repository<?>> getRepository() {
return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync((Repository<?>) -> return bla, executor);
}

Repository<UserModel> users = getStorage.getRepository("users").find().join();

[eternal night]

.join()

[lost matrix]

.join() joins the current thread... so

[sterile token]

It can't block if i'm passing an executor

[eternal night]

no

[sterile token]

🤔

[eternal night]

you understood futures wrong

join() will wait for the future to complete

what executor you pass does not matter

that executor is responsible for executing the future

[lost matrix]

This is executed by the executor. But if you call join() then your executor joins the thread join() was called on

[eternal night]

join() waits for the executor to be done executing

[sterile token]

Right, but how i would get the result without using andThen(), etc

[eternal night]

not at all

it isn't available yet

that is the entire point of it

config.set("message", List.of("Hello", "World"))

[sterile token]

Right thanks, so Will have to make an own future implementation 💀💀

[eternal night]

what ?

no

you cannot get the value on the thread without blocking

like, just logically that does not make sense

[lost matrix]

You define a pipeline which describes what the object should be used for if it is finally available.
Everything you define in a CompletableFuture will be run in the future at some point. And you have no idea when this
point will come.

[eternal night]

no matter what impl you write

[smoky oak]

cant you queue atomics outside of threads?

[eternal night]

sure your future can mutate an Atomic

if that is what you mean

does not mean you have access to the value directly on the thread

[smoky oak]

ig

depends where the variable is initialized

[eternal night]

what ?

no like

the atomic will be null until the future completes

how is your code gonna know when that happens ?

because before that, you just have null in your atomic reference

[smoky oak]

ah i was referring to running threads my bad

i was like 'isnt that what we have monitor locks for'

or whatever you call that to not do read/write operations on the same value in parallel

[echo basalt]

verano wants to use futures and obtain the result in the main thread without blocking

sounds counter-intuitive, that's not how future works

[young knoll]

Well when we get time machines in java it might work

[sterile token]

Oh ok, that makes sense and also i cluldnt find enogubt info about doing that

[echo basalt]

it kinda isn't possible

[sterile token]

But what's an alternativa for it?

[echo basalt]

just using the thenAccept thenWhatever methods

You can use an executor to have the data on the main thread, later

[sterile token]

An example?

[echo basalt]

But basically you're in non-linear territory

.

[sterile token]

What thats?

[echo basalt]

read

[sterile token]

Ok, but i can't understand the texto You linked me

[eternal night]

what java version are you on

[echo basalt]

Yes you can

[eternal night]

ripppp

well

[true marlin]

Arrays.asList I think

[eternal night]

I mean

[true marlin]

Uhh

[eternal night]

create a list somehow

[true marlin]

Yeah

[eternal night]

tho Arrays.asList should exist in java 8

[sterile token]

Exists

[true marlin]

I think you are running Java -8 xD

Btw, how can I run a code when the player walks on a Bed?

e.getTo().getBlock().getRelative(BlockFace.DOWN).getType() == Material.BED but it doesn't work

No problem!

[tall dragon]

when on a bed the getTo might just be the bed, since a bed is like half a block

ur prolly tryna get the block under the bed now

[true marlin]

Oh

[tall dragon]

getTo

[true marlin]

Oh yeah

[tall dragon]

not relative down

[true marlin]

Oh ok

Thanks

[sterile token]

Okay i read what You link, but why Javascript allows You yo get directly the value? 🤔

[echo basalt]

because javascript doesn't really have a concept of a main thread

[sterile token]

Ohh ok

Yeah they use a event pool

If i'm not wrong

[echo basalt]

idfk I'm a java dev

[sterile token]

Yes they use something like a thread pool but it's not exactly that

[hybrid spoke]

jokes on them

[sterile token]

But thanks that info about completable future helped me a Lot

Sorry for disturbinh

[echo basalt]

is ok

[wet breach]

multi-threading doesn't exist in javascript

closest you are going to get is asynchronous tasks

[regal scaffold]

I see that

Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers();

returns

Collection<? extends Player>

Is this what I should be using to get all the players?

If I want to get all the players or players UUID connected to the server, specifically

[wet breach]

it just returns a collection

if you want it in a List for example

you would just use the addAll method from the List

[tawny remnant]

I dont think my NMS is working can anyone help?

[regal scaffold]

Ohhhh right right

[wet breach]

and reference the collection

[regal scaffold]

Is it better to do that or use the collection directly?

[wet breach]

You can use it directly, just depends what you are needing hence why it is a Collection and not some specific array of sorts

gives you freedom to have it anything you need it to be

[regal scaffold]

Gotcha!

Thanks forst

List<Player> uuids = new ArrayList<>(Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers());

[chrome beacon]

?notworking

[undone axle]

"Does not working" is a useless statement. Please describe what exactly is not working, what you expect it to do, and what actually happens. If you get any console errors, also ?paste the entire stacktrace.

[regal scaffold]

Both work correctly, is there a reason I should use that one instead?

[tawny remnant]

man its not working what do i need to say

[rotund ravine]

😘

?nms

[undone axle]

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

[wet breach]

Alternatively you can use toList() as well

reason for using toArray is it will ensure the array its being copied to is exactly the same size as the number of elements it contains

also it is more performant as well and since it creates a copy the array instance has no referneces and safe to use anywhere

[regal scaffold]

Ahhhh gotcha gotcha

[wet breach]

all that from just one method

[regal scaffold]

But technically

Shouldn't really be an issue

But safer

[tall dragon]

0

[wet breach]

all arrays in Java start at 0

[wet breach]

if you want to do it the way you had it

you would need one more line of code

that is, to size the array before hand which is less performant then toArray() to not lose performance when copying another array

What's a good way to implement a network wide restart? Synced, example, all servers under the proxy restart together

With a timed countdown, that is

[wet breach]

use a bash script or have them all as a service

[smoky oak]

why not just say 'restart at 3 am'

works for me

[regal scaffold]

Bash script won't announce ingame

That it's gonna be restarted

[wet breach]

yes it will

[regal scaffold]

Huh?

Really?

[wet breach]

you can send messages from bash to in game 😛

[regal scaffold]

tf

[wet breach]

let me show you

https://gist.github.com/frostalf/74d662a4bf381ad4ba2679bc537c4595#file-minecraft2-service-L33

[regal scaffold]

That would be amazing, thanks

[wet breach]

that is one of the service scripts I have, but that link shows the line where it sends a message in game 🙂

https://gist.github.com/frostalf/36925fc506a8d310e0886f8470685ce8

this is a bash script and not a service one but its for a ramdisk setup

[regal scaffold]

Wait a second

Ok first of all

That's sick

[fluid river]

make a small bungee plugin which just runs console command restart on 3am

for all servers 😉

[smoky oak]

i mean a plugin can just create a server socket

and listen to a specific port

for messages to display

[regal scaffold]

I guess

[fluid river]

but idk if bungee has /restart

[regal scaffold]

I could make a bungee bukkit-brige

[fluid river]

/end ig

[regal scaffold]

I'm using pterodactyl

[wet breach]

wouldn't need to do that, all of this can be done from a bash script even if the servers are not on the same host

[regal scaffold]

That's the thing

They have cron tasks

But how can I edit that to send a countdown in game, even if it's basic

[fluid river]

well with plugin you can basically send messages and do some stuff before restarting

and set the restart time to yml for example

[wet breach]

do some stuff like what?

[regal scaffold]

He's right tho, I can edit all server startup scripts

And that would do the trick I think

[fluid river]

bukkit api stuff

[wet breach]

such as

[fluid river]

idk lol

i never maintained a network

[wet breach]

my service script I linked earlier, auto restarts servers if they die as well as lets you spin up as many servers as you want by using arbitrary names it doesn't know about before hand 😛

also, the service script locks the java processes as well

also known as jailing

[regal scaffold]

But

[wet breach]

so I don't see how a plugin would be more beneficial

[regal scaffold]

Do you know if it's possible to use something like that with Pterodacyl

[wet breach]

have no idea, never used pre-made panels like ptero

Have no use for them and they never provide what I want as well as taking up valuable resources for stuff I don't care about

[regal scaffold]

They only offer a startup command by default. I'm sure I can change stuff inside tho

Fair

[wet breach]

bash script, you can use ssh if need be and without passwords since you can have certs. Therefore, not hard to create a bash script for the purpose of restarting all servers

however, restarting servers shouldn't be a normal everyday thing

if you have decent plugins, typically most I have used were custom. You can have an MC network and servers running for months before restarting them

[regal scaffold]

Really?

hmmmm

Usage tends to go higher tho

[wet breach]

its not going to go beyond what you allocated it

if it does it dies anyways

and should be investigated at that point in why it tried to use more then you gave it

[regal scaffold]

But but

If you leave it on for longer

Doesn't it tend to eventually go up and up until it can't cause allocation?

[fluid river]

garbage collection goes brrrt

[regal scaffold]

Well, java has GC

But still doesn't stay at the same usage as it starts off

[fluid river]

depends on the plugins ig

[wet breach]

if you allow dynamic allocation sure. But I also set an upper limit which is the same as the lower limit so that the server already has ram pre-allocated to use even if it doesn't need to use it all

[regal scaffold]

Oh!

That's actually a good idea

So straight up give it min and max

Same value

[wet breach]

yes

[regal scaffold]

That's smart

[wet breach]

its better too

[fluid river]

or maybe spigot has endless recursions somewhere

idk

[regal scaffold]

Gotcha gotcha, thanks both

[wet breach]

but yeah, if you are having to restart your mc servers everyday then there is something wrong and it should be looked at in why you are needing to do that

[fluid river]

freejavalessons

tho there is a skyrim mod

afair papyrus is a scripting language

and it can have recursions

[regal scaffold]

Man I'm looking at these voting plugins

That are available

They are all outdated

[fluid river]

i can help you write one

😉

[regal scaffold]

I can make my own but

Something so common i'm surprised there isn't a decent alternative already

[fluid river]

and this mod basically hooks to the script and searches for recursions stuck + disables them

is that possible in like c++ or java

@wet breach

afair you can link to an .exe process with some cpp magic

[fluid river]

i want to write my own tree capitator again

cuz there is no decent plugin which removes leaves too

[pine lake]

Hello, how can I use translatable text as item displayname? I have a texture pack with custom lang files and I wanted to know how I could do that

[regal scaffold]

Hey, I remember once I saw a website that had a practical example on using github

Like, it explained and then let you do examples

To really learn commits, branches and that stuff

[wet breach]

scripting languages have to be implemented in the language that is trying to provide it.

[fluid river]

you mean itemmeta

[regal scaffold]

https://learngitbranching.js.org/

Found it

[wet breach]

only reason mods exist for what you are talking about is because players/modders don't have access to the code to actually fix it

so yes, you can provide scripting functionality from java, but as I said you have to implement it

[pine lake]

No, I want to have a displayname with a translatable key

[fluid river]

i mean how do they actually unstuck recursions

which are from other mods or base game

[wet breach]

either kill it or satisfy the requirement to make it stop

you can satisfy the requirement to make it stop if you know what its searching for or why it is looping

it be as little as a boolean change to make it stop

[fluid river]

well what about killing

[wet breach]

if its in another thread you would kill that thread

[fluid river]

isn't that some kind of cpp hacking

where you can just connect to the .exe process and like change the entire game

like with cheats

[wet breach]

no different then attaching a debugger

[haughty storm]

How can i change the skin of a player with nms?

[eternal oxide]

you don;t need nms to change a skin

PlayerProfile

[eternal night]

did I miss spigot adding a setter to the player for their player profile

[eternal oxide]

no you can reflect the field

[eternal night]

[flint coyote]

In that case you don't need nms for anything lol

[eternal night]

you still need to send the update packets ?

[lost matrix]

Wait... cant you just change the textures in spigot?

[eternal night]

the profile is not mutable is it

well

not mutating the backing game profile

[wet breach]

setter for what?

[eternal night]

a players PlayerProfile

spigots GameProfile abstraction

[wet breach]

you can use update()

[eternal night]

you can set it on skulls and the respective skull item iirc

but update just updates the instance

not the player

[wet breach]

it updates the profile based on what you set stuff

[eternal night]

well ye

but I don't think that is actually applied to the player

unless I am tripping

[wet breach]

only the UUID and ID

are immutable

everything else can be changed

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/profile/PlayerTextures.html

[eternal night]

yes on the profile instance...

that is an abstraction

I am talking about those mutations actually mutating the backing/based NMS gameprofile

[wet breach]

I am pretty sure it does

[eternal night]

which would be required for changing a player skin

[wet breach]

otherwise its a rather pointless api

[eternal night]

no lol

[wet breach]

yes

[eternal night]

hence why there are setters on item meta

and skulls

[wet breach]

because they would be useless otherwise

[eternal night]

those would be rather pointless if the api interface directly mutates its origin/inner game profile

spigot also does not send any update packets

so that would be a somewhat trashy implementation

yea nah, it does not mutate the underlying GameProfile

// The Map of properties of the given GameProfile is not immutable. This captures a snapshot of the properties of
// the given GameProfile at the time this CraftPlayerProfile is created.
public CraftPlayerProfile(@Nonnull GameProfile gameProfile) {
    this(gameProfile.getId(), gameProfile.getName());
    properties.putAll(gameProfile.getProperties());
}

it creates a copy

[eternal oxide]

itdoesn't? bum, in that case minimal nms

[wet breach]

then pretty pointless to me that it exists. I don't need an abstraction to provide something to NMS

when I can provide it directly

[eternal night]

the based game profile is not tracked

the point is that you don't have to touch nms ?

it works for skulls and skull items just fine

[wet breach]

you have to touch it anyways to update the profile

so moot on that

[eternal night]

hence why there is no setter on player ?

just because the API isn't complete does not mean it is useless

[wet breach]

so why would I use the abstraction if I have to use nms anyways

what benefit is it providing that I couldn't already do

[eternal night]

if you don't deal with players ?

the API is not just for players lol

as stated like ~5 times now, it seems to primarily exist for skulls

as they have setters

[wet breach]

you didn't say it existed for skulls, you just said skulls have setters

[eternal night]

ah sorry if that wasn't clear

I thought the existence of setters implied that, I blame my english teacher

[wet breach]

maybe one day we will get an API for updating skins on players

kind of surprised there isn't one yet

[eternal night]

smirks over at paper

[tender shard]

pull request it

[lost matrix]

Probably mr Larsson Karlssonson

Max Musterman for sure

[lost matrix]

Wait you are a swede, right?

Something scandinavian was in my head

[tender shard]

I thought he's dutch or sth

[wet breach]

maybe they are finnish

[eternal night]

damn

my github seems to not be spicy enough

[wet breach]

ah German, shame I don't even think we have anyone from Finland quite ironically

[tender shard]

Bjarne. Ok, he's indeed scandinavian

[lost matrix]

Why do he have so many germans here?

[tender shard]

damn bf wants to play minecraft with me. he never played it. now he probably thinks I'm a pro in that game but I don't even know basic things about it

[remote swallow]

can i get a translation on Gestankbratwurst

[eternal night]

probably not xD

[wet breach]

show them the redstone

[tender shard]

stench bratwurst

[remote swallow]

translate harder

[lost matrix]

Havent played since 1.13
Go play SkyFactory or some other cool mod. Then you both are clueless.

[tender shard]

what is skyfactory?

[wet breach]

bad sausage ?

[tender shard]

reminds me of these point and click adventure games... Pyjama Pit

[wet breach]

is that what it means?

[tender shard]

or Pyjama Sam, in english

[wet breach]

such an old 90's game

such fun, trying to collect all the socks

yeah I recently played all parts again

also spy fox

Bjarne is a variation on Bjorn which means Bear 🙂

[eternal night]

the perfect #help-development topic xD

[remote swallow]

were just cool like that unlike paper

who are all swifties

[icy beacon]

facts

[torn shuttle]

I haven't ever really looked into it that much, can resource packs replace the models of entities beyond just changing the texture?

I believe so right?

[remote swallow]

iirc for some they can but theres limitations

cant change hitbox though

[young knoll]

No

You need optifine to change the models

They are hardcoded

[torn shuttle]

I thought it was possible to an extent

[remote swallow]

who doesnt have optifine or custom entity models for fabric

[torn shuttle]

most people

[remote swallow]

call them a nerd and ban them

[torn shuttle]

so the hacks something like modelengine does is the bare minimum huh

[young knoll]

If you want a custom model you have a few options

• Armor stand magic
• Invisible entity with custom modelled items on head/hands
• Shader magic

[lost matrix]

There is new approach using display entities im working on right now.
You can basically split a Model from BlockBench into smaller parts, generate
item models with it and use them as the body of your entity. I just need to properly
figure out how the client interpolation works

[torn shuttle]

I already have a plugin that works in converting blockbench models into leather horse armor

it works though the project itself is just sort of halfway done, got busy with other stuff

[young knoll]

Yeah display entities are basically the new armorstand method

[lost matrix]

*With interpolation

Thats the neat part

[torn shuttle]

so how does that one work then

I mean

[lost matrix]

Oh and im still not 100% on board with 2 Quaternions being needed for the rotation...

[torn shuttle]

that's not the leather horse armor method right?

[young knoll]

Objmc is a cool tool

It can turn .OBJ files into a shader

[lost matrix]

Well you should still use leather horse armors. But instead of using ArmorStands you now use
display entities. Better performance for clients and (as stated before) interpolation for scale, translation and rotation

[torn shuttle]

what's a display entity?

[young knoll]

A new entity for 1.19.4

ItemDisplay renders items

[torn shuttle]

oh

[remote swallow]

non ticking entity that can display a block, text or an item

[torn shuttle]

very new

huh

[young knoll]

They are really cool

[remote swallow]

yes

[young knoll]

Shout out to Mojang

[torn shuttle]

damn

sure would've been cool to have that 11 years ago mojang

[remote swallow]

i can have 1000 right infront of me and only loose 30 fps

[quaint mantle]

so no need for armor stand shit anymore?

[young knoll]

Pretty much

[remote swallow]

pretty much

[lost matrix]

https://youtu.be/gf5YNRAoTcM?t=315

[torn shuttle]

mojang has just discovered empty game objects from any game engine

[remote swallow]

xisuma is great

[young knoll]

There’s also the interaction entity

Which can have a custom sized hitbox for detecting interactions

[lost matrix]

Finally right clicking air with nothing in your hand is possible

[young knoll]

Mhm

[torn shuttle]

what a time to be alive

[young knoll]

It also works as a vanilla worldguard

Somewhat

[torn shuttle]

so basically just switch out armorstands with empty entities

[young knoll]

Mhm

Armor stands are cancelled

[lost matrix]

And now you dont have scaling limitations anymore 😄

[torn shuttle]

I saw armorstands with a black helmet on them in 2013, I knew they would get cancelled at some point

[young knoll]

They have been returned to their normal usage

Standing with armor on them

[quaint mantle]

can someone

help me?

[lost matrix]

?ask

[undone axle]

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

[torn shuttle]

damn those display entities are pretty dang cool

[young knoll]

Data driven blocks next Mojang

[torn shuttle]

I look forward to people begging me to port a model displayer to versions before 1.19.4

[young knoll]

Do it 🔫

[lost matrix]

For example this is me trying to figure out why the fk the rotation currently changes the scale (?!)

[torn shuttle]

I'm surprised that scale didn't tank fps

[hybrid spoke]

endboss spawning

[torn shuttle]

you probably fucked up your quaternions, are you normalizing everything you should?

[lost matrix]

Yeah you will now be able to create gigantic god-like boss mobs

[young knoll]

The people over at the minecraft commands discord seem to already have this stuff figured out

They wild

[hybrid spoke]

i mean you could also do that before

[remote swallow]

512x512 mob boss

[hybrid spoke]

just with massive fps and tps drops

[torn shuttle]

I haven't checked anything about 1.19.4, how are these things in the api?

[lost matrix]

Not really. The display entities are very well optimized

[hybrid spoke]

but you cant stretch them or?

[young knoll]

Pretty good

They have methods for all the stuff

[lost matrix]

Pretty extensive so far

[torn shuttle]

dang

I have been meaning to release a free open source alternative to modelengine

this might be the time

[young knoll]

Hey model engine is free

For 5 models

:p

[torn shuttle]

yeah mine will be infinity times free-er

[onyx fjord]

pretty cool, how do you do that in spigot api tho?

oh i see

[lost matrix]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/Display.html

[onyx fjord]

ive heard u can display text

[torn shuttle]

yeah

[young knoll]

Mhm

[lost matrix]

Yes. Holograms just got a lot better

[torn shuttle]

holograms just actually became holograms

[young knoll]

I’ve even seen someone display text on screen by syncing a text display with the players location

[lost matrix]

And! You now have good utility for clickable text.

[torn shuttle]

how glitchy did that get?

[young knoll]

Well they weren’t moving much so it was fine

[torn shuttle]

lol

yeah I can do that too

[lost matrix]

Hmm. Source pls.

[young knoll]

I imagine if you run around a lot it’ll kinda suck

Unless you have 0 ping

[torn shuttle]

I'll just send you a png, make sure to open it and bam presto a brand new display

you'd be better off adding a resource pack and feeding the player some scoreboard magic

or action bar or boss bar, doesn't matter

or title I guess

[hybrid spoke]

everyone now trying to be the first with a new hologram plugin

[torn shuttle]

I mean existing hologram plugins just have to check the version and spawn one of these puppies instead

it's a pretty easy hotswap

[young knoll]

More options tho

[torn shuttle]

more efficient

[young knoll]

Text background color for example

[lost matrix]

Nah ive done it already. If you used decent abstraction then you just need to implement one interface
and you are done. The packets are also pretty self explanatory.

[torn shuttle]

I'll be the first to add a bitcoin price ticker hologram

[hybrid spoke]

i'll be the first to add a bitcoin miner

[lost matrix]

Has been done already

[hybrid spoke]

damn sucks

[torn shuttle]

yeah mojang where are the visual only bitcoin mining blocks

[lost matrix]

There was a plugin which mined some crypto on your cpu

move you coward

[young knoll]

Lol it’s not mine

[lost matrix]

Ah ok. Probably running on the same machine

[torn shuttle]

relay the message then

[young knoll]

Yes

It’s a shame Mojang can’t just give us a packet for this

[torn shuttle]

it's a shame mojang doesn't do what cs:source was doing over a decade ago and allow us to feed modpacks to clients on login

[young knoll]

ClientboundRenderTextPacket(x,y,text)

Mojang should hire me for this stuff

@dinnerbone plz

[torn shuttle]

so I would have to figure out the interpolation huh

interpolation is client-side?

[young knoll]

You gotta figure out them quaternions too

[lost matrix]

Wouldnt be much of an interpolation if it wasnt, lul

[hybrid spoke]

minecraft after one day

[ancient plank]

Display dis

Damn I butchered that before pressing the autocorrect button

[torn shuttle]

quaternions is fine, I just added a shortest arc quaternion solution to my plugin like a week ago

[lost matrix]

[ancient plank]

[young knoll]

I would never

I know what the java mod community wants

Everything, but that’s beside the point

[ancient plank]

Brb gonna go convince my server to have us update to 1.19.4 instead of 1.18

[torn shuttle]

so you feed it a transformation and then set the interpolation, that's it?

[lost matrix]

I almost read "1.8"

[young knoll]

Use the convincing stick

Aka the 2x4

[quaint mantle]

Hey, is there a way to make unbreakable blocks breakable?

[ancient plank]

[quaint mantle]

worldguard?

[hybrid spoke]

by not making them unbreakable

[lost matrix]

Give an example for an unbreakable block...

[quaint mantle]

I meant like bedrock or barrier blocks

[young knoll]

I mean do you want a simple breaking system or a more complex one

[delicate lynx]

if player clicks then break

[hybrid spoke]

creative

[quaint mantle]

[torn shuttle]

lol why are they left rotation and right rotation

[young knoll]

If you just want them to break when clicked that’s easy

[ancient plank]

Creative mode upsets me

[delicate lynx]

give them creative mode for 0.1 seconds
