[lost matrix]

The expensive part is the loading of the world because spigot does some IO on the main thread

[wary mauve]

Is that during server start?

[lost matrix]

It is when you load the world

And this traditionally lags every server that dynamically wants to load any world...

[wary mauve]

It's one world file that loads when the server starts. Would it be fine after that?

[lost matrix]

Sure, if its onEnable then no problem. I thought you wanted to have per-player worlds

[sage patio]

any idea for naming this variables better?

[wary mauve]

I want it to seem like that, but they will be in the same world file

[worldly ingot]

Names are totally preference but these seem fine tbh

[sage patio]

good thanks, and any idea about this: #help-development message

[lost matrix]

Names are fine.
Implementation is not.
Static -> no state. you are having stateful statics. Dont do that.

[sage patio]

uh i never learn this things (private, public, static, void and ...), what should it be

[lost matrix]

Not static

[tawny remnant]

Can anyone give me a link for code for a simple NPC please?

[sage patio]

so can i get access from other classes? what does the static do (tutorial links are fine too)?

[icy beacon]

can a message be sent asynchronously to a player or is that also forbidden?

[lost matrix]

NPCs are never simple. Use an existing library if you have trouble.

[pseudo hazel]

what code did you write?

[worldly ingot]

You can send a message asynchronously, yes

[sage patio]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/how-to-create-and-modify-npcs.400753/

[worldly ingot]

Something that is static means it's not associated with an instance of its parent type

[worldly ingot]

Foo fooInstance = new Foo();
fooInstance.bar(); // non-static. Requires an instance of Foo

Foo.baz(); // static. Does not require the 'fooInstance'```

[icy beacon]

sometimes static is fine

you just need to be careful

for example utils' classes are mostly fine with being static

[worldly ingot]

Think of it this way. Player.getName() being static would make no sense. Which player?

[icy beacon]

there's a thin line between using static and engaging in static abuse

[pseudo hazel]

thats not the code you wrote

[remote swallow]

is a set config serializable

[pseudo hazel]

probably not

doesnt look like it

a set is just a list anyways

the set here is probably being saved as a map

[worldly ingot]

No you can't insert a Set into a YAML config

[pseudo hazel]

no its just that the default config system is stupid

[ivory sleet]

Set::toArray 🥲

[pseudo hazel]

there are probably just some helper functions you can find to save and load those containers

since you would save a set identical to a list in yaml

[ivory sleet]

Yes but problem is

Set has no inherent notion of order

SortedSet does have that

But just Set does not ensure it

yea

[worldly ingot]

for SequencedCollection https://openjdk.org/jeps/431

[ivory sleet]

Foreal gonna be such a life saver

Believe there was a proposal of a sequenced set also

[worldly ingot]

It's included in that JEP, yes

[ivory sleet]

[worldly ingot]

SequencedCollection, SequencedSet, and SequencedMap

[ivory sleet]

Music to my ears

[young knoll]

Seeing preview features hurts

Because you still have like 4 years to wait for them to be full release :p

[worldly ingot]

It won't be a preview. That's a targeted release

21

[ivory sleet]

Yea

[remote swallow]

have we got pattern matching switches yet

[worldly ingot]

Should be a lot of releases and graduations in 21

[young knoll]

Oh it is

[ivory sleet]

Since its presumably much less work than implementing something like that structured concurrency api

[worldly ingot]

Pattern matched switches included

[young knoll]

What happened to everything having 13245345 previews

[remote swallow]

YOOO

MOJANG GET ON UPDATING

[worldly ingot]

Yes, it would have to be a list of strings. UUIDs aren't serializable either

[young knoll]

21 is LTS right

[worldly ingot]

It is

[ivory sleet]

Yup

[worldly ingot]

There should be a lot more features in 21 than most others

[young knoll]

Hows that foreign memory api

[worldly ingot]

That was added in 20, no?

Yep, https://openjdk.org/jeps/434

Oh, preview. Will probably come out with 21

[ivory sleet]

Yea

[remote swallow]

why is the open jdk website stuck in 2009

[worldly ingot]

https://openjdk.org/projects/jdk/21/

[ivory sleet]

I mean when I tested it seemed quite stable

So hopefully

[young knoll]

I haven't actually read much about it

[pseudo hazel]

well yeah but that doesnt matter for saving it

[young knoll]

It's like a "safe" way of accessing raw memory isn't it

[worldly ingot]

As "safe" as you can be, yeah

[ivory sleet]

Yes, anyway my point is, to save a term of type Set, you can do it in N different ways where n is the size or cardinality of the term

[young knoll]

Safe is better than unsafe

[ivory sleet]

Yea

[young knoll]

Specifically sun.misc.Unsafe

[ivory sleet]

Well iirc its gonna be more or equally performant to unsafe

Whilst providing high usability and robust design

[young knoll]

It's a shame plugins sometimes need to use Unsafe in the first place

But I guess you can only do so much when mojang likes static final fields

[ivory sleet]

Lol yea

Well, from a mod perspective mixins gets the job done

[young knoll]

Plus ATs

But we don't get either

[ivory sleet]

Very true

Very sad

[worldly ingot]

I mean ideally claims just aren't stored in a configuration format but rather a database (even flatfile like SQLite)

[ivory sleet]

Loopy loop

[sage patio]

does intellij scan the variables too? lol

[ivory sleet]

to some extent yes

But I have that inspection set to hint

Instead of weak warning or whatever

[remote swallow]

you just reminded me i have to do my mysql storage handler

[young knoll]

Do you have a MySQL server

[remote swallow]

i can get one

[worldly ingot]

btw, I use this a lot when designing databases and testing queries, figured I might as well share http://sqlfiddle.com. It's awesome

[ivory sleet]

Morice they have what’s called a sequence

[young knoll]

DROP DATABASE testing;

[ivory sleet]

list or array is not rly a thing

[young knoll]

Am I doing this right

[ivory sleet]

by specification you have yaml maps, yaml sequences and yaml scalars

then its up to the parser how this will be implemented regarding sourcing and sinking

[worldly ingot]

Fiddle lets you setup your own schema. Left side (schema panel) allows table and insert operations, then you can build the schema, then the right side allows for non-table-altering queries

YAML is just a superset of JSON

Json only has objects, arrays, and key-value pairs as well

[ivory sleet]

That too is true

[tawdry echo]

why i dont have acess?

[worldly ingot]

Not a fork. Superset 😛

[remote swallow]

whats jason a fork of

[worldly ingot]

YAML can be converted to JSON and vice versa

[worldly ingot]

May just need to recompile your project

[ivory sleet]

Well comments you’d lose

But otherwise yea

I guess anchors also

but who cares, its still super cool :)

[worldly ingot]

Yes, you would lose comments. Unless the converter does what JSON tends to standardize and uses a "comment" key-value pair

[ivory sleet]

🥲

[tawdry echo]

how?

[young knoll]

Gson has an option that allows comments

[white root]

Can someone help me with working with reflections?
I use a technique almost identical to this with my discord bot, and it works fine, but for some reason it doesn't want to work with my spigot plugin.

Originally I had this code: https://nekobin.com/sopivaduto.kt
Kinda ugly, and I didnt like having to put every new command here every time I make a new one

So I replaced it with this code: https://nekobin.com/kawitaneyi.kt
Much better imo, and like I said before, This code is almost perfectly copy/pasted from code that I used for my discord bot.

Here is the only command that I have implements the Command interface: https://nekobin.com/jonedozovo.kt
Here is the Command interface: https://nekobin.com/niwivekena.kt

And here is the error that it is outputting: https://nekobin.com/kicugefita.py

EDIT:
Needed to do this: https://nekobin.com/hekibowafi.kt
because kotlin is a special little snowflake

[ivory sleet]

Yes setting leniency to true right

[young knoll]

yes

[ivory sleet]

Veru nice

[young knoll]

Although gson is apparently old and smelly now

[ivory sleet]

The design is nice for micro projects

But jackson is better for enterprise and then u got moshi

[young knoll]

Moshi

That's the one

I never remember that damn name for some reason

[ivory sleet]

Lmao ye

I feel like moshi is nice, but gson works just fine and since its shipped why not use it yk (:

[tardy delta]

does moshi have an object mapper?

[fallow violet]

can someone eggsplain me this error? Its worked fine until the last build, but i changed nothing?

no

[ivory sleet]

Yes

[tardy delta]

i always believe those are slow

[ivory sleet]

What it doesn’t ship is stuff like JsonArray, JsonElement etc

[tardy delta]

and thereby dont use them

[young knoll]

I mean

Don't you do most of it at startup anyway

[ivory sleet]

Well

Moshi is faster than gson

Anyway fourteen to blow ur mind

iirc jackson with annots is incredibly fast

And reflection is faster depending on java version yk

[tardy delta]

idk i looked at jackson and i found the syntax weird

[ivory sleet]

18+ means method handles implementation behind reflection

Yea

They have weird conventions

[nocturne steppe]

helo is there a way to get a world's height map?

[white root]

Are there any good item gui libraries that anyone recommends?

[nocturne steppe]

be a true man and code it yourself

[white root]

No need to reinvent the wheel if someone's already made a good one

[grave lagoon]

    public void PlayerDies(PlayerDeathEvent event) {
        Player player = event.getEntity();
        String playerUUID = player.getUniqueId().toString();

        playersInCombat.remove(playerUUID);

        if (player.getKiller() != null) {
          
        }
    }```

this detects respawn anchors for some reason

i want it to detect just players

and player.getKiller returns a player

so it shouldnt detect respawn anchors

[young knoll]

What

How is a respawn anchor killing someone

[remote swallow]

overworld

explosions

[chrome beacon]

They explode

[young knoll]

Ah

You'd have to check the cause of the last damage event

Iirc there is a method for that

getLastDamageCause I think

[worldly ingot]

Yep

Returns the most recent EntityDamageEvent

[tawdry echo]

how can override command executon on te server?

[chrome beacon]

Probably killed itself after you froze the game with a while loop

Why wouldn't it

It's going to block the thread that you're on

[sterile axle]

doesn't matter if it's in a public void method, it depends what thread you called it from - and if you don't know the answer to that, you called it from the main thread. it looks like that while loop never finishes (NoFallToggled, is not ever set back to false). So it runs forever. On the main thread.

= 💀

Yeah but the bottom section won't ever be reached, because in the top section a never-ending loop is declared

Pretend you're the computer and walk through that logic

You'll find yourself never reaching the bottom

[vivid skiff]

How should i add the SQLite driver in a bungeecord plugin? I tried doing this in the pom.xml but it isn't working
POM -> https://github.com/Gurwi30/UltimateBlacklist/blob/master/pom.xml
SQLite Class -> https://github.com/Gurwi30/UltimateBlacklist/blob/master/src/main/java/me/gurwi/ultimateblacklist/database/SQLite.java

[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.

[chrome beacon]

;/

[vivid skiff]

It is not loading the SQLite driver

[glass mauve]

an item frame with a filled map is 1/16th of a block wide, correct?

[crystal bay]

is it possible to like... say if at x0 y50 z0 u place a diamondblock is possible to code it so that it also places a second block on x1 y50 z0?

[glass mauve]

yea

[crystal bay]

Interesting I'm confused on how to go about it lol

[glass mauve]

check the BlockPlaceEvent

[crystal bay]

Right

[echo basalt]

it kinda doesn't have a pixel

I'd say it's 1/128th

but at work we just use 0.1

[terse ore]

at work?

[remote swallow]

his company

[glass mauve]

I mean this:

[remote swallow]

you can hide the frame so make it disappear

[glass mauve]

I know I just want to know the width of that for mathematical calculations

[remote swallow]

that looks like 1px to me

[lost matrix]

1/16th of your map resolution

[chrome beacon]

Could depend on the resource pack

So keep that in mind

[crystal swift]

Hey Guys, I Just wrote an empty Class with the Command Executor thing. How can I now use org.bukkit.player to define a player?

[remote swallow]

you check if the sener is instance of Player

[lost matrix]

Check if the command sender is an instance of Player and cast

[crystal bay]

out of curiousity would i have to do something like getblock() then like something like setblock(x,y,z)?

[echo basalt]

ah, that

[lost matrix]

You call getRelative(dx, dy, dz) or getRelative(BlockFace.UP) to get the relative block and then set its Material

[echo basalt]

I was talking about invisible frames

[crystal bay]

Ah and that sets a block ontop of it?

[lost matrix]

You cant really set a block. You can only change the properties of a block

[crystal swift]

Got it done with the Player! How can I now add items to the Inventory of the player?

[echo basalt]

Basically a location represents... a location of a block

Changing the location just changes where it points to

[crystal bay]

soo i cant do like if a block is at x0 y50 z0 say diamondblock for instance... i cant make it so a stone block appears beside it aswell?

when its placed

[echo basalt]

Locations don't store block data, that's part of the Block implementation

[crystal bay]

;-;

[lost matrix]

getInventory() to get the inventory
addItem() to add items
new ItemStack(...) to create new items

[echo basalt]

You can get the block at a location by calling Location#getBlock

and check its type

then getting another block at another location and changing it

[lost matrix]

Sure you can do that

[crystal bay]

interesting

[echo basalt]

I should probably make like a github repo that's just a sample of how to use individual features

like a folder that has a sample on how to use inventories, and a sample project that'd use them

[crystal bay]

that'd be interesting

[echo basalt]

I just can't bother writing documentation for 8 hours straight to avoid answering questions for 10 minutes per day

[crystal bay]

i was just wondering if u can set a block at a location if a block is placed lol

[echo basalt]

if a block is placed

[terse socket]

a.getClickedInventory().```
'getTitle()' and 'getView()' were both removed from the method (?) above. How can I get the title of the current inventory open?

[echo basalt]

There's not quite such a thing, a block is just a representation of a block at a given location, and its data

You can check if the block is empty (air)

[crystal bay]

Oh...

Yah

[lost matrix]

Everything in the world is a block. Even the blocks you run through are 'placed' blocks. Just of type AIR.
You can only change its type.

[chrome beacon]

Don't compare inventories by their name

[crystal bay]

Sooo basically just change the air on whatever axis?

[echo basalt]

I wouldn't advise doing title checks

[lost matrix]

Yeah

[terse socket]

That also seemed unsafe to me, what else could I do?

[echo basalt]

but, InventoryClickEvent#getView -> InventoryView#getTitle should still work

[granite owl]

Check the inventory instance or use your own inventory holder

[young knoll]

Or the InventoryView instance

[lost matrix]

I would use a collection to throw your opened inventories in and then check with contains()

[echo basalt]

or you can use the lovely inventory system that the guy above me wrote https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-modern-approach-to-inventory-guis.594005/

[chrome beacon]

Spigot probably has some outdated dependencies

[granite owl]

so nothing i can fix?

[chrome beacon]

You could probably make a PR

[granite owl]

[granite owl]

ah xD

[terse socket]

the "getClickedInventory()" does have a .contains(), should I just write the title in the ()?

[chrome beacon]

and update snakeyaml

[granite owl]

also im using a locally by the BuildTools generated maven repository of spigot right?

[terse socket]

Oooh

[granite owl]

or is it requesting the api from the spigot server

[echo basalt]

yeah that's also my reaction when I see that pic

[lost matrix]

No. You create a gui manager class which contains a Set<Inventory>.
Add them to the collection when you open them.
Call contains on the collection to check if the clicked inv is in your collection.
Remove the inventories when they are closed.

[granite owl]

nvm i just managed to pull a 1.19.2 api version which i never created locally

[paper viper]

Is there any persistant data container which is always there?

[echo basalt]

[chrome beacon]

Build tools is for generating the spigot artifact. (The Spigot jar) and installing it in to your local maven repo. You don't need it to get just the api since that is hosted online

[young knoll]

The PDC on the default world

[echo basalt]

mongodb

[chrome beacon]

If you need access to internals you need to run BuildTools and depend on spigot instead of spigot-api

[paper viper]

how do i get the default world without nowing the name?

[echo basalt]

getWorlds.get(0)

[remote swallow]

how do you feel about nms

[lost matrix]

Bukkit.getWorlds().get(0)

[remote swallow]

damn

[echo basalt]

I think I got sunburnt so I'm not gonna type mouthfulls

[young knoll]

You could also pull the name from server.properties and use that

[terse socket]

I'll try this out, thanks!

[granite owl]

yea i figured, if i do not have a local copy it then instead requests the data from the server to create a local copy. in addition i made it pull the 1.16.1 api and there the snakeyml is not marked as deprecated

[remote swallow]

public String getDefaultWorldName() {
        return ((CraftServer) Bukkit.getServer()).getServer().getProperties().levelName;

Hi everyone,

I have a question, i'm trying to build BuildTools for 1.19.3 and i receive this error every time:

[chrome beacon]

[echo basalt]

probably your maven folder is messed up

https://tenor.com/view/northern-exposure-java-coffee-caffeine-holling-gif-25854091

[chrome beacon]

What are you trying to do?

[outer anvil]

Oh lol i solved it by deleting my specialsource m2 folder again

[sage patio]

its a long story, wanna explain really?

[chrome beacon]

Yea

[sage patio]

ok then

[chrome beacon]

The reason why could change the approach

[final monolith]

InventoryView open = player.getOpenInventory();
for (int row = 0; row < open.countSlots(); row++) {
    ItemStack item = open.getItem(row);
}

java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index: 63, Size: 63

This is supposed to happen?xD

[tardy delta]

count slots is the count ig

not index

wait

[final monolith]

🤔

[sage patio]

I'm creating a BattleRoyale plugin for my server events (not a public one)
when the match starts the players get teleported to the behind of a airplane, and they cannot move by canceling move event, i'm setting they're velocity for moving smoothly behind the airplane, but it seems setVelocity triggers the event too, i want the event to cancel it if the move is caused by the player

[tardy delta]

ive never seen that method either

[final monolith]

(yes, the exception is from this ItemStack item = open.getItem(row); line)

[chrome beacon]

Make the player ride an entity. Will make things smoother and easier to control

[sage patio]

uh yea, thanks

sometimes things are too easy, but you want to do the hard way

[weak meteor]

I have a messages.yml file in resources directory, how should i access it?

[remote swallow]

try countSlots - 1

[remote swallow]

keep a yamlconfiguration var in your main class

[chrome beacon]

?configs

[undone axle]

See this wiki page on how to use custom configuration files: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/config-files/

[sage patio]

also last question, sorry for pinging again, can a list of players be the passenger of an armorstand? like 100 players

[final monolith]

i think just one entity riding once

[sage patio]

so update on the question, can 100 armorstand be in one place

[chrome beacon]

Yeah but they will be on top of eachother like a pillar

[final monolith]

yes

[sage patio]

they're invisible, does that matter?

[final monolith]

no

[sage patio]

the players too

till they jump of the airplane

[chrome beacon]

Might look a bit weird

[sage patio]

even when both of them are invisible, huh why

[chrome beacon]

Go with armor stands per player or mess with packets

[sage patio]

so what i can do about it

[chrome beacon]

(To remove invis players)

[terse socket]

@EventHandler
    public void onclickitemUnc(InventoryClickEvent a, InventoryOpenEvent s) {
        Set<Inventory> siv = null;
        Inventory iv = s.getInventory();
        siv.add(iv);
        if (siv.contains(a.getInventory())) {
            a.setCancelled(true);
        }
    }```
It didn't work, I think I misunderstood

[sage patio]

what if first clearing the player effects then unmount it?

[chrome beacon]

You can only have one event per listener

[young knoll]

A single entity can have multiple passengers in modern versions of mc

[final monolith]

Same error

seems to be a spigot bug

(Version: 1.9 R1)

[young knoll]

But I have no idea how that works with entities that only have 1 passenger point

[sage patio]

unfortunately i'm on 1.12.2

[tardy delta]

new HashSet<>()?

[chrome beacon]

1.12.2 should have that feature

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

• https://www.learnjavaonline.org/
• https://programmingbydoing.com/
• https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/index.html

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

[chrome beacon]

It has existed for a long time

[sage patio]

good, thanks again for help

[terse socket]

how do I get the open inventories, then?

[lost matrix]

You start by learning the very basics of java.
At least until you know what a List, Set and Map is.

[terse socket]

I do know map and set

But I learned it in javascript

Is it different

[chrome beacon]

Yes

[terse socket]

oh well

[chrome beacon]

Java != JavaScript

[terse socket]

Yeah, I know that, I just checked if it was any different, but I'll just check the documentation, thanks

As for your question you can get the inventory from the inventory click event

Oh hey I did that when I was learning Java

[terse ore]

:v

[young knoll]

😄

[chrome beacon]

Yes I learned Java and Spigot at the same time 💀

[terse ore]

anyone?

[lost matrix]

What do you want to learn?

[chrome beacon]

You could actually go for mcmmo

[remote swallow]

essentials x

[terse ore]

anything tbh

[regal scaffold]

If I want to add flags to the global region from worldedit

Which is called GLOBAL

Can I treat it as another region?

[chrome beacon]

WorldGuard*

[regal scaffold]

Even if there is no file for it

Sorry, yes, WG

[chrome beacon]

Probably

[regal scaffold]

👍 Ty

[chrome beacon]

But why do you need to mess with the global region?

[regal scaffold]

I want to do some flag work

On a world that I create

And they need to be global

[chrome beacon]

Ah

[regal scaffold]

Today I lost respect for all Private Mine plugin makers

[sage patio]

i didn't learned Java ever unfortunately and annoys me a lot, i just learned anything i needed to code about in Spigot at the moment

[chrome beacon]

I'm generally a fast learner so it went pretty well

[river oracle]

same here but oh boy were my first few form questions horrid

[chrome beacon]

I never posted for help more than like twice

[river oracle]

most of my posts were me not being proficient enough at google yet tbh

[regal scaffold]

Wasn't possible

Says global is null

Ummmm

How to set global flags then

[lost matrix]

Wasnt it _GLOBAL_ or something with underscores

[regal scaffold]

__GLOBAL__

[sage patio]

"something with underscores" shows you haven't been using WorldGuard for months or maybe for years

[terse socket]

Or it shows that a human being can forget something 🤯

[lost matrix]

I got my own protection system, so why should i...

[quaint mantle]

Yeah, WG isn'tthat necessary

[lost matrix]

For 99% of servers it is

[sage patio]

nice

[ivory sleet]

✨

[tardy delta]

always fun figuring out nullpointers in an interpreter

turns out java internally calls Objects.requireNotNull on a switch param

[wary mauve]

@lost matrix My server freezes when it tries to load up the world right after generating and switching generators. Do you know why that is? Heres the code

[river oracle]

WorldCreator runs on main thread

also to add there is no Async World Creator

[regal scaffold]

Hey I have a question about WG if anyone knows

[wary mauve]

No it crashes. I expect the generating to pause things, but the server crashes

After its done generating

[echo basalt]

worldguard is just decent at what it does

[river oracle]

stack trace?

[regal scaffold]

If there's an existing region with a specific name, and I try to create another region with the same name

Does it override

[echo basalt]

I kinda hate its internals but it's whatever

[regal scaffold]

Or error

[river oracle]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[river oracle]

give stacktrace

[echo basalt]

I don't use it for protection, more like for defining abstract shapes for stuff like minigames

where I can just tell my teams to make a region for each door

and have 2 regions overlap at that door

[river oracle]

I do my own stuff for minigames

[echo basalt]

and write code that automatically associates that door as a connection between both regions

[river oracle]

with my game engine I just used bounding boxes lol

[chrome beacon]

Error I believe but check the docs

[regal scaffold]

I shall

[echo basalt]

my cod zombies minigame just uses regions to scan the entire map and automatically know what spawnpoints are enabled

based on where regions overlap

[wary mauve]

Like 37 is where it freezes. The rest is outputted when it gives up
https://paste.md-5.net/bahujopudu.md#

[chrome beacon]

Looks like it took a very long time to generate the worlds

[wary mauve]

It's a custom generator that takes a while.

[chrome beacon]

I'd space out the loading a bit and not create multiple worlds during the same tick

[wary mauve]

It's only one world file, if that's what youre talking about

[chrome beacon]

Or if it's a private plugin you should be able to increase the watchdog timeout in the spigot.yml

[wary mauve]

It doesn't timeout, the server stops responding and doing anything. The generating finished. I can reboot it and the world is how I expect it

[chrome beacon]

The code you sent shows you creating two worlds

[wary mauve]

oh true. I should delay the second one?

[chrome beacon]

Yeah it blocks the main thread as stated earlier so the server will freeze. The error (thread dump) you sent is from the watchdog because the tick took too long

[wary mauve]

But the tick took too long because the server was frozen for minutes. There's some other issue I believe

[chrome beacon]

Yeah. One world per tick should be fine

[wary mauve]

what do I do to delay it?

[chrome beacon]

[quaint mantle]

hey guys, is there some sort of discord i can join for 1.8.8 support since i know this discord hates questions regarding old versions lol

[sage patio]

How can i get a Vector from where player is looking (i want to move something in player look direction)

[sage patio]

everybody hates, so no

but you still can ask your questions

[river oracle]

true you always have yourself

that will never go away

how poetic

[quaint mantle]

see right, every time anyone asks, they are absolutely berated with facts about why newer versions > older versions

[sage patio]

i typed it wrong 😂

[quaint mantle]

yes let me ask my brain, im sure its got this.

[chrome beacon]

This is probably the best place. Some other discords have rules against old versions

[river oracle]

yeah we are the kindest around here in SpigotMC discord

you won't get banned

[sage patio]

Olivo maybe you can help

[quaint mantle]

well aight, is there any documentation for just 1.8.8 stuff or is all documentation only new versions?

[chrome beacon]

Should be getEyeDirection iirc

[river oracle]

probably something on google

[chrome beacon]

Helpchat has the javadocs

Or you can generate them yourself

[quaint mantle]

not doing that for sure

i havent setup 1.8,8 yet, is there anything different in the ways of setup or na

[sage patio]

yea getEyeLocation.getDirection
i was scared of a lot of calculation and math, whats why i asked before, it was easier that i thought

[chrome beacon]

Ah right

[chrome beacon]

No it's the same. You run BuildTools and then start the server

[quaint mantle]

okay good to know, ill set that stuff up in a lil bit. also i heard something about pdc being different in older versions, what was that abt?

[chrome beacon]

But knowing 1.8 users you're probably going to use some fork of a fork of a fork of a fork... that breaks Minecrafts copyright by distributing their code

[chrome beacon]

PDC doesn't exist

You will need to implement that on your own using nms

[quaint mantle]

thats awesome!

love it, is there not any other similar alternative?

[wary mauve]

@chrome beaconIt didn't work. it still froze at the same spot

[young knoll]

There's uhh

NBTApi

[chrome beacon]

NBTAPI

Yeah

[sage patio]

it seems ArmorStand#setVisible(false); does not work if you mount something on it

any idea?

[chrome beacon]

Hm is that why people usually use arrows?

[sage patio]

or buttons?

[chrome beacon]

No idea can't really check

[sage patio]

ah 1 thing

i'm mounting a player on armorstand in somewhere else too

its invisible and fine

[sage patio]

a button item drop

its smaller

nobody can see them

[sage patio]

but ^

[chrome beacon]

Haven't seen anyone do that

[sage patio]

i did one a long time ago

[chrome beacon]

Hm show your code

[sage patio]

1 sec

(deleted code)

yes, seems my brain is not working anymore, i'm not even setting is not visible

[chrome beacon]

Use the spawn method that takes a consumer

That will ensure the entity is modified before it's spawned so you avoid flickering and such

[sage patio]

i don't know which one you are talking about

can you send an example

[chrome beacon]

World#spawn(ArmorStand.class, (armorStand) -> { do stuff }, location)

No idea if that's correct going off memory

And writing on phone

[young knoll]

Did that exist in 1.8

[chrome beacon]

Do stuff would be set invis

[chrome beacon]

They're on 1.12.2

[young knoll]

o

[sage patio]

yea thanks, i'll change all of my armor stands to that

[wary mauve]

I missed when my coding problems were small bugs in my plugin

I cant figure this out @chrome beacon

my server crashes every time now. In the past it would only happen like 50% of the time

[chrome beacon]

Worldgen is a pain you can easily kill the server if it's too slow

[wary mauve]

I really dont think its the speed. It loads once, generates what I tell it to, and is all fine. Then it does something that it doesnt tell me for about a minute, and then it tries to load the world again and it stops on Preparing to start region for dimension

I've made it generate more than what I currently make it do and it worked sometimes before

@chrome beacon @young knoll after doing a lot of thing and put them together (its still not smooth)

[chrome beacon]

Won't check that. I have limited internet atm

[sage patio]

its just 5mb ig

5.06mb

[wary mauve]

Im tryna make these cool mini world areas

[chrome beacon]

Looks neat

[wary mauve]

it just not working the ways I need it to

[grave lagoon]

the 2nd and third one i personally dislike

but

my opinion doesnt matter

since i couldnt do better than that

[wary mauve]

One of the problems is that it generates other chunks that I dont want it to

[granite owl]

what are the names of the vanilla commands permission nodes?

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/bbcode.143/archive

[chrome beacon]

The bukkit wiki should have them

[granite owl]

apparently this is deprecated and i dont find a new documentation

[granite owl]

minecraft.command.op

however

PluginManager pluginManager = Bukkit.getPluginManager();
        Permission opPermission = pluginManager.getPermission("minecraft.command.op");

        if (opPermission != null)
        {
            opPermission.setDefault(PermissionDefault.FALSE);
        }
        else
        {
            Bukkit.broadcastMessage("Failed to remove op permission");
        }
```returns null

[chrome beacon]

?? What are you trying to do

Why remove that

💀

Don't give op to people you don't trust

[granite owl]

to disable it

and replace it with my own

im rewriting my old permission plugin to be compatible with permission nodes

[chrome beacon]

Bad idea

[granite owl]

and i tried to print the permission node

and its null for /op

apparently the op command has no permission node

[sullen marlin]

Normally you would add a permission attachment, not change defaults

[granite owl]

hm

[sullen marlin]

It will be null onEnable

Default commands are added last so they can be replaced by plugins

[granite owl]

why is writing my own permission plugin a bad idea

[chrome beacon]

Not that part

Trying to modify the defaults

[granite owl]

ill read myself into that ty

[chrome beacon]

Though I'd just use LuckPerms since it has everything one could ever need

[granite owl]

yea but i like to have control over a plugin's backend

[chrome beacon]

LuckPerms is open source

[young knoll]

It also offers like 234 backend options

[chrome beacon]

And has good code

Unlike some other options

[fossil coral]

hi

im facing this error for the first time when trying to build my plugin: Error:Cannot determine path to 'tools.jar' library for 17 (C:/Program Files/Eclipse Adoptium/jdk-17.0.6.10-hotspot)

it was working for some reason this time it wont

[sullen marlin]

How are you building your plugin

[fossil coral]

ctrl+f9

[sullen marlin]

Is it an eclipse project?

Did you try googling the error

[fossil coral]

i did

[fossil coral]

r u talking bout the IDE??

[sullen marlin]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72100223/cannot-determine-path-to-tools-jar-library-for-18-c-program-files-jdk-18-0-1

Are you using intellij?

[fossil coral]

ye

[sullen marlin]

Make sure it is up to date

It seems like your version doesn't support java 17

[fossil coral]

i tried the latest versions but it wont work with the spigot api for some reason so im using the version 2020.1

[sullen marlin]

Well that's rubbish, spigot API doesn't depend on your ide version

[fossil coral]

ik but it just didnt work

[sullen marlin]

Well install the latest version and come.back

[fossil coral]

mk

it did

[fossil coral]

i didnt delete it i just instaled the older one

[sullen marlin]

Ok now what is the issue with the newer one

[fossil coral]

it didnt register it as a spigot plugin at first it wouldnt let me import stuff from bukkit.org

[young knoll]

That's an issue with the build path, not the IDE itself

[sullen marlin]

?intellij

There's probably a wiki on it

[young knoll]

There's https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/creating-a-blank-spigot-plugin-in-intellij-idea/
and https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/creating-a-plugin-with-maven-using-intellij-idea/

How did

What

I've always wanted to be a staircase

[next plume]

The NoCheatPlus people say that 1.19.4 doesn't fire player move events for players riding in minecarts. Instead, a single event is fired when the player exits the minecart, covering the entire distance the player traveled (which freaks out the anti-cheat).
Is this an intentional change?

Details:
https://github.com/Updated-NoCheatPlus/NoCheatPlus/issues/290

[granite owl]

do i see it correct that a permission attachement invalidates upon logout?

[young knoll]

I doubt that was an intentional change

[next plume]

Judging from the log and the first-hand testing, the player seemingly tries to cover with a single player move event the distance traveled with the minecart (from the mounting location to dismounting location).
Was not able to reproduce this with other vehicles (horses, boats ...).

Now, because this does not happen on 1.19.3, either Mojang or Spigot changed something regarding player/vehicle move when updating to 1.19.4... Will need some further checking.

[young knoll]

MD is around, maybe he knows more

[sullen marlin]

PlayerMoveEvent never fired in vehicles, VehicleMoveEvent did

[young knoll]

I think it may be more about the one big move event firing when you exit?

idk

[next plume]

I'm just going by what the NCP people were saying.
Maybe the player move event firing for the entire distance ridden is new?

[sullen marlin]

No idea

[granite owl]

they invalidate on logout right? also if i add a permission attachment it does not automatically update the player?

[sullen marlin]

Yes they invalidate; they do automatically update though

[granite owl]

that they can use the command*

i do not see the "added" command in the command list although i can use it

[eternal oxide]

adding an attachment/permission does not update the command map that is sent to the client unless you call an update

[sullen marlin]

You're adding the perms after join in which case you need to .resyncCommands or whatever the method is

[eternal oxide]

updateCommands() I believe

[granite owl]

this yes i found it works fine now ty

[granite owl]

sorry to bother again but since i got the master here xD, when exactly does a permission given like this invalidate? ```java
Player player = (Player)sender;

            PermissionAttachment attachment = player.addAttachment(this);
            attachment.setPermission("ranks.commands.rank", true);

            Bukkit.broadcastMessage("player has been given rank permission");

            player.updateCommands();

[sullen marlin]

Wdym

[eternal oxide]

on log out

[terse ore]

btw @tardy delta @eternal oxide I made it work at the end

14 years without anyone opening it

the psu sounded like a helicopter

[granite owl]

like if a player is given permission to use a command this way, when does the permission attachment invalidate

[granite owl]

hm

[granite owl]

and is there a permanent option? like until removed

[eternal oxide]

no

[tardy delta]

huh

[eternal oxide]

you have to re-apply it on join

[sullen marlin]

yes, its called a permissions plugin

[eternal oxide]

as it's always a fresh Player object

[tardy delta]

oh that pc

[terse ore]

it isn't that bad of a pc ngl

[granite owl]

i dont complain that it doesnt work, just trying to understand the scope im working with

[young knoll]

Yeah you'll need to handle saving and loading them yourself

[granite owl]

aight thenks

[granite owl]

to me?

if so thats not a problem ill serialize/deserialize everything

[young knoll]

👍

[granite owl]

and then apply/remove it to from players as required

[fossil coral]

I need help my commad wont work it says unknown command

[young knoll]

?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.

[fossil coral]

oh ye lemme send u the entire thing

[young knoll]

Is it in your plugin.yml

[fossil coral]

i used a command base

[compact haven]

did you register the command with that

or did you like use the annotation

send the code & what lib

[chrome beacon]

They probably didn't register the command

Which is why it says unknown command

[pure raven]

Can I change the spawner to type item?

[chrome beacon]

Yes

[fossil coral]

ye

[compact haven]

send the code because you're doing something wrong

and what library are you using...?

[young knoll]

You can set it to an item

But I don't think you can change what item with just the API

[chrome beacon]

I find the spawners api lacking

[young knoll]

Sadly it is

I think this brings us back to virtual entities again :p

[pure raven]

I couldn't find a way to set it as an item.

[chrome beacon]

True

[young knoll]

setSpawnedType

The type is DROPPED_ITEM

[chrome beacon]

Won't you need nms to specify what item is dropped

[young knoll]

Yes

[pure raven]

How do I set which item to drop?

[young knoll]

I imagine it will default to stone

[young knoll]

NMS

[pure raven]

Can you give an example source? I will read

[fossil coral]

i forgot that was a thing

[compact haven]

me.balls is your package?

also is your plugin on /pl

[fossil coral]

lmao ye

[chrome beacon]

You didn't register the command executor

[compact haven]

no he does lol

it's when he gets the command map using CommandBase

[chrome beacon]

Hm did I miss it while scrolling

[compact haven]

though that is definitely not how they want you to use CommandBase

you're meant to extend it and call super

not what whatever the fuck

but it's okay

should sitll work

[compact haven]

verify your plugin is in /pl first

then if it is, getCommandMap() is null

[chrome beacon]

Ah modifying the command map 💀

[compact haven]

        CommandMap commandMap = getCommandMap();
        if (commandMap != null) {
            commandMap.register(command, this);
        }

but like, this is so scuffed

use a library, please

search "Lamp spigot", "ACF spigot" or "CLOUD spigot"

[fossil coral]

how do i verify it in /pl ?

[compact haven]

mate is there your plugin

are you a troll?

send the output of /pl please as a screenshot

i didnt know it was a command in the console

[fossil coral]

nope

mine wont show

[compact haven]

well that's why is says unknown command

do you have a plugin.yml

[fossil coral]

ye

name: balls
version: 1.0.0
main: me.balls.Balls
api-version: 1.19.4
authors: [FiryDev]
depend:
description: Balls!!

[compact haven]

send a screenshot of the file explorer on the side of the IDE

why the empty depend line? delete that

[next plume]

api-version: 1.19.4
Should be 1.19, not 1.19.4

[compact haven]

ah yeah that too

[fossil coral]

ok

[compact haven]

if the plugin.yml is in the right place, the jar is in your plugins folder, then there's something in your console log about this plugin called "balls"

[fossil coral]

https://prnt.sc/Kjdub-X2Aa0g

[compact haven]

thats not the screenshot

[fossil coral]

oh wrong one

sry

https://prnt.sc/8QgtYDozSqdd

[compact haven]

plugin.yml in wrong spot

there isn't even a src/main or src/resources folder

._.

[fossil coral]

oh sry

lemme try it

[compact haven]

no dont just randomly add folders

let me make a video real quick

[fossil coral]

ok

[chrome beacon]

Did you ChatGPT the plugin or smth

[fossil coral]

nop

[chrome beacon]

Just copy pasting code then?

[fossil coral]

nop

[chrome beacon]

I have no idea how you figured out how to access the command map without knowing how to setup a java project

[compact haven]

no ive seen that clas sbefore, he copied it online

[chrome beacon]

Ah so they're just lying then

[compact haven]

video processing, give me a minute

[chrome beacon]

Great

goes to sleep

[compact haven]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRmtcxBp4l4 instructions on how to add a resources folder and proper placement of your plugin.yml is here

follow the necessary steps, some are erroneous because I didnt have a spigot plugin improperly configured on hand

and of course I haven't manually re-configured source and resource roots in a long time

idk how the hell u setup that project but sheesh

and make sure the main in the plugin.yml isn't as I typed, I put me.balls.Main because that's your package and my default class name from when I just made the project, but it should be me.balls.Balls for you

[fossil coral]

ik

[compact haven]

no you clearly don't, but alright

[fossil coral]

i've read some documentations and maybe some tutorials but idk how to setup a java project i kind of tried to understand what the class was didnt copy paste or somethhing

[compact haven]

CommandBase was definitely copy-pasted

[fossil coral]

huh

[fossil coral]

that one is cus when i made my own version it gave me an error i didnt find a solution for it

[compact haven]

because I doubt someone who can figure out how to reflectively access the CommandMap and use constructor overloading can't also realize you don't make it an anonymous class or that you require a plugin.yml in the resources root of your project

🤷 that's what he was asking when he said "Just copy pasting code then?"

welcome to the spigot discord btw, sorry I'm being an ass just no patience atm

[fossil coral]

lmao

[fossil coral]

oh

it did register it now

ty

[compact haven]

np

gl

[fossil coral]

this is my first time making a spigot plugin so im sry

i make bedrock addons usually

its not my first time coding anythin tho

https://prnt.sc/G3Vrw8dqqc0n

oh ye dont ask why the plugin is named balls cus idk i asked one of my friends what should i name it she said balls

[terse ore]

hey
https://paste.md-5.net/paguvafinu.java

what could cause this error

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

[worldly ingot]

Line 17, this.getCommand("test").setExecutor(new FloodgateTest());

You can't instantiate your plugin class

[terse ore]

yeah I just realised

mb

[worldly ingot]

That line entirely is useless because the plugin class is automatically assigned to handle commands, so you can remove it all together and it should still work 🙂

now I get another error

lol

[weak meteor]

how to make a player invincible?

i know there's a method

but i dont remember it

ive tried with setInvincible

[flint coyote]

Player#setInvulnerable()

[weak meteor]

thanks

[flint coyote]

Your IDE should tell you tho

[weak meteor]

and isInvulnerable?

it exists too?

[flint coyote]

Aren't you using an IDE to code?

But yes it does exist

[young knoll]

What's wrong with ConfigurationSerializable

[flint coyote]

 final ConfigurationSection elperSection = permissionSection.getConfigurationSection(elperId);

elper

Actually you can cast a map from yaml

even a list of maps

It will be an unsave cast though. I got plenty of those

I have this List<Map<String, Double>>

Well a set is a list (just without an order)

you can do new HashSet<>(yourList) if you really want a set

Yeah I'm not using a single ConfigurationSerializable as of now. That will be cleanup/optimization at a later point

The function does look horrible though

yes

I can show you xD

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[flint coyote]

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

xD

Kinda

Not for claims

It's more of a regional event plugin

[raw crow]

what is the current name of PacketPlayOutUpdateSign at 1.19.3?

[flint coyote]

So basically you can code your own events (or use mine) and set them up for certain regions, customize them, combine them etc

It will be open source anyway. It's already functional but I wanna do some quality of life and then some optimizations at the end

To be fair: With all those checks it might not even be possible to make the code I sent much prettier 😅

Yeah that would work. I'm more concerned about all those type casts

List<Map<String, Double>> enabledTimedEvents = (List<Map<String, Double>>) map.get("enabledTimedEvents");
like this

There's a reason why I wanna make all that configurable with commands/GUIs. Writing all that configuration by hand is pain

Well not really possible if you need a bunch of strings

I mean you could always close it and tell them to type it in the chat and then reopen but that's tedious aswell

Yeah for version 1 I'll probably still require the events to be configured in the yml directly. Only the regions can then be modified entirely ingame

sleep well :)

thx

[wet breach]

Depending on your audience this is sometimes highly inconvenient

[flint coyote]

I'm aware of that but the config is quite complex since you can have CompositeEvents that basically consist of multiple other events. And obviously a CompositeEvent can hold another CompositeEvent etc

I was thinking about a webeditor tbh.

The only problem is that I don't know if (especially rented) servers are fine with running an application on another port.

[wet breach]

Well maybe for your advance users you could still allow manual configuration. But if you do provide this i would recommend a command to reset configs lol. And basically put a warning that manual configuration you will not provide support for. But this really just depends on your audience.

That is if you have plenty who like this to make it worth it to do

[flint coyote]

The default event config is empty. Resetting won't be hard ^^

[wet breach]

Only issue with this is them web panel hosts dont allow additional ports to be opened usually but i never consider them real hosts anyways lol

[flint coyote]

A web editor would be pretty neat for complex configurations. And doing something like serverport+30000 = webeditor port would probably work for most servers

[wet breach]

You could host the web editor

[flint coyote]

I could but I'm really not that comfortable with putting my real address on a website (and german law requires that for any public website)

[wet breach]

But yeah you could implement a mini webserver to allow editing from a browser

[wet breach]

Interesting, just have alex host it for you lol

[flint coyote]

I thought about it but I haven't seen any other plugin do it so I wasn't sure if that's common practice

If he's fine with it I could do that lol

[wet breach]

Itd rarely done. There is some plugins that do it just rare

[young knoll]

LuckPerms does it

[wet breach]

Just talk to him. Sure you both could come to some kind of agreement

[young knoll]

So does ExcellentEnchants

[flint coyote]

But they all host it on their own domains, no?

[wet breach]

No

[flint coyote]

Oh so they actually run a webserver on the mc server?

In that case I can do that, too. Also ensures that it's always accessible

[wet breach]

Yes, easy to implement a small webserver in java. Doesnt take much. Just use the apache lib

[flint coyote]

spark?

[wet breach]

Apache provides a websever lib

[flint coyote]

Oh I thought you meant apache spark

maybe there's another

[wet breach]

It has methods and utilitied to implement a small web server easily without you needing to code a whole lot yourself

Just make sure to run the webserver in a daemon thread

[flint coyote]

I'll surely not do that on the main thread lol

And I will not keep it up either. I'll just start it on demand, generate a unique token and put that in a link that gets send in the chat

[wet breach]

Nice

[flint coyote]

https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/excellentenchants-vanilla-like-enchantments.61693/
I'm either blind or this thing does not have a web editor.

[flint coyote]

What spigot version are you on?

[weak meteor]

1.8.8

[flint coyote]

Yeah then it's not there

[weak meteor]

damn

[worldly ingot]

mfw that API is 7 and a half years old

[flint coyote]

xD

[weak meteor]

i just wanna make it compatible from 1.8 -> 1.19

(I tried, it works)

[flint coyote]

You can use the EntityDamageEvent

But I'd not support 1.8 (ever)

As Choco said - this is waaay to old and outdated

[young knoll]

Sorry wrong one, its AdvancedEnchants

[weak meteor]

i should make that

But i have this command /god ye

so the original plan was to use setInvunerable

but, well it doesnt exist

[flint coyote]

Well that's a paid one. Wanted to check what lib they used but I'm not buying it just for that^^

[weak meteor]

how i make the listener know that the player is invunerable?

how to make a note to the player

lets say

[flint coyote]

Store the players/uuids in a list/set and check if they are inside that list/set inside the listener

[weak meteor]

hmm

okay

[wet breach]

Odds are its the apache lib

Apache has smaller slpit up libs for their webserver stuff

[wary mauve]

Is there any way to make it so one tick goes by every time generateChunkSquare(), but that the server waits for it to finish before doing something else?

[young knoll]

Use a repeating task instead of a loop

And keep track of i manually

[wary mauve]

dont variables in bukkit tasks have to be final?

[wet breach]

If you declare it in the task. But you would use a method outside the task to get and set i

[weak meteor]

Hey @flint coyote look at this

    @EventHandler
    public void entityDamageEvent(EntityDamageEvent event){
        if (event.getEntity() instanceof Player){
            Player player = (Player) event.getEntity();
            UUID playerUUID = player.getUniqueId();

            if (GodCommand.godPlayers.contains(playerUUID)){
                event.setCancelled(true);
            } 
        }
    }

i made this

[wary mauve]

how do I insert code into discord?

[rough ibex]

```lang
code
```

[wet breach]

If its long use the paste site instead

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[flint coyote]

Not a big fan of the static access but besides that that's how it's done, yes

Would it be possible to use books for GUI? When I need a list of strings the chat would be annoying but a book would be fine

[young knoll]

Yeah you can do that

Signs and anvil GUIs are also an option

[wet breach]

Could use the conversation api

[young knoll]

Conversation API is nice but chat is a bit annoying to use for text input

[wary mauve]

anvil guis?

[young knoll]

The player has to press an extra button to open it :p

[wet breach]

How so?

Its designed for text input lol

[young knoll]

But the extra button press!

[wet breach]

Lol no different then clicking

[flint coyote]

I prefer to hop from an Inventory into a book and back. But I will take a look at the conversation api aswell. Although if it's chat based I can probably do it myself

[young knoll]

I don’t think it requires a click for a book or sign gui

Anvil one might

[flint coyote]

Don't you have to click "sign" on books?

[young knoll]

True

[wet breach]

Conversation api uses the chat but nice thing is you can put the player in a separate channel and then when done move them back to global and they wont have their chat cleared for that

[young knoll]

And signs only allow like 10 characters per line

[worldly ingot]

Wish more people knew about the conversation API

It's great

A bit dated, but great

[flint coyote]

10 characters would be sufficient but I'll need more than 4 lines and opening 10 signs in a row might be annoying

[wary mountain]

does anybody know the inventory slot ids for armor slots

[wet breach]

Its ironic for how old it is and many dont know about it

[wary mountain]

i searched online and everything was either 100s or less than 5, and 100s crashes my game

[young knoll]

I guess no one really thinks there is an api for that until someone tells them

[wet breach]

Its been there since like mc 1.2

[hybrid spoke]

dated by who

[worldly ingot]

ChatPaginator too is often overlooked

[flint coyote]

Hmm it doesn't sound that bad at first glance. However I don't want one entry of the list to be unchangeable after it was entered. Lets say you have to specify a list of valid entities. Then you would type SHEEP enter WOLF enter COW enter and then you notice you don't want the sheep. Feel like a book where you can continously type whatever you like and then "commit" it at once is better for that

[wet breach]

It could use a bit of updating. It works but it could use some additional stuff

[worldly ingot]

Yeah it's just a tad old

And unmaintained

[young knoll]

Wtf is ChatPaginator

[wet breach]

You can go back with the api

[hybrid spoke]

i meant like

the other dating

[worldly ingot]

Just a quick utility class to help with word wrapping

[wet breach]

Let me get you a link for an example

[young knoll]

Well I’ll be danged

Doesn’t the client handle that itself though

[worldly ingot]

For some things lol

[flint coyote]

I will definitely compare both variants but the question is: How complex is a book GUI? Do I need nms or packets or is it easy to make?

[wet breach]

https://github.com/frostalf/ServerTutorial/blob/master/ServerTutorial/src/main/java/pw/hwk/tutorial/conversation/CreateTutorial.java

[young knoll]

Oh wait you could use this for stuff like lore so it doesn’t go way off the edge of the screen

[wet breach]

Conversation api is going to be easier then messing with books

Less to check for and manage

[young knoll]

I wrote my own method for this a while ago D:

Guess I should browse the API more

[worldly ingot]

lol

[weak meteor]

NPE when calling config (Isnt done that way?):

Configuration config;

    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        saveDefaultConfig();
        config = getConfig();

        Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new PlayerListener(), this);

        //Commands
        getCommand("gamemode").setExecutor(new GamemodeCommand());
        getCommand("god").setExecutor(new GodCommand(config));
        getCommand("fly").setExecutor(new FlyCommand());
        getCommand("vote").setExecutor(new VoteCommand());

        //Listener
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new PlayerListener(), this);
        enableMessage();
    }

I know, i initialize the variable, then assign the config, no?

[wet breach]

Need to nake sure config file actually exists if not create it

[weak meteor]

it exists

[worldly ingot]

saveDefaultConfig() is there

That code LGTM

[weak meteor]

lemme re build

im gonna delete old config from sv

maybe is that?

[young knoll]

Are you building with maven/gradle

[weak meteor]

maven
