i wanna prevent to tripwire state change
how can i do this i mean which event ?

if tripwire states is this
no obstacle will change that

[fierce salmon]

I setup a clicking event to detect when a player clicks on certain items in a specific inventory, but whenver the player clicks on an inventory slot that has nothing in it, it sends the console an error. What can I add to remove this issue?

[hybrid spoke]

check if current item is not null

[fierce salmon]

Like this?

if (event.getCurrentItem().getType() != null){

[robust pebble]

private static Main plugin; This is how I create my plugin
public static Main getPlugin() { // getter for the static plugin instance
return plugin;
}

why is this null

or how is it null

public static NamespacedKey key = new NamespacedKey(getPlugin(), "death_clock");

[tardy delta]

type will always be not null

item might be null if thats the question

[chrome beacon]

It's null if you never set it to anything

[tardy delta]

damn i thought they were one and the same person

[robust pebble]

but what do I set it to, is my question

[chrome beacon]

Set it to your plugin instance

[robust pebble]

ill just do this or somethign

[tardy delta]

?di use this instead of the crappy approach

[fierce salmon]

Would this work in order to determine if the item they click in the inventory is null or not?

[serene sigil]

hi i started a new project; whenever i build it with mvn package it gives me 3 files and each of them are >5kb

what should i do?

[tardy delta]

jar files?

[serene sigil]

ye

and folders

[tardy delta]

iirc one contains your jar with the shaded stuff, one without and one with only the shaded stuff

i only see two tho

[serene sigil]

what does shaded mean?

i did

it wont work

[tardy delta]

that you compile stuff into your jar rather than providing it at runtime e.g. through a plugin

[serene sigil]

it says it has a wrong plugin.xml

[tardy delta]

show error

[serene sigil]

sry i meant plugin.yml

[tardy delta]

?paste it

[undone axle]

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

[serene sigil]

it looks like this

[tardy delta]

you got resource filtering enabled in your pom.xml?

[serene sigil]

i have no idea

ill share my xml

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

[tardy delta]

doesnt look so

[echo basalt]

where did you put your plugin.yml?

[tardy delta]

dunno if that stuff is enabled by default

[tardy delta]

since when does paper-plugin.yml work

[serene sigil]

wdym?

[tardy delta]

thought it was supposed to be called plugin.yml

[serene sigil]

so i should rename?

[tardy delta]

idk could try

[young knoll]

paper-plugin.yml is for paper

Believe it or not

[serene sigil]

which one?

[serene sigil]

ye, that was the problem... i have this "plugin" in intellij that can help u create a mc plugin, but i accidentally selected paper instead of spigot...

now it shows the right icon

[tardy delta]

plugin.yml works for paper too

[young knoll]

Yes but it isn’t there official new format

Ohnoes

[serene sigil]

@tardy delta

[tardy delta]

first

original is without shaded libs, shaded is just shaded libs so you need first one

[fierce salmon]

[young knoll]

Why the heck would you ever want just shaded libs

[tardy delta]

idk

[serene sigil]

works now

thx!

[fierce salmon]

I wanted to add an ActionBar to my player's screen that displays them their time when running a parkour course and was wondering how often I should have the action bar update to not impact server performance or if it won't even be an issue

[young knoll]

It’s just sending a packet

It’s not a huge deal

[fierce salmon]

So sending it once every tick will be fine?

[echo basalt]

p much

server can send hundreds of packets per second

[fierce salmon]

ok cool

[robust pebble]

could I use setter injection

[celest sonnet]

how can i get all the values for a key from a yml file

[robust pebble]

instead of dependency injection

[tardy delta]

for what

[celest sonnet]

me or knight?

[tardy delta]

not you

https://bukkit.fandom.com/wiki/Configuration_API_Reference for you and loop over keys, calling getX on them

[robust pebble]

is this a good usage for dependency injection ^^^

[tardy delta]

dont make it static and make it final

nothing static

[robust pebble]

ok

[young knoll]

Don’t make it sta- ^

[tardy delta]

got you

[young knoll]

D:

[robust pebble]

it rlly wants me to add static 😭

[tardy delta]

use this.plugin

and create the key in the constructor

please dont

[robust pebble]

wait so I didnt need dependency injecting?

im so confusedf

[tardy delta]

class Whatever {
  private final XPlugin plugin;

  public Whatever(XPlugin plugin) {
    this.plugin = plugin;
  }
}```

[fierce salmon]

How do you set an action bar for a player?

[robust pebble]

p.spigot().sendMessage(ChatMessageType.ACTION_BAR, new TextComponent(timeInHms));

[tardy delta]

util classes shouldnt have dependencies

[robust pebble]

I used tyhis

[robust pebble]

im using instance

[young knoll]

It’s weird that there isn’t a string version for action bar

[tardy delta]

dont tell that to paper

im waiting for string templates but in a different way, it would probably be able to colorize a string

[carmine mica]

actually... its good 🙂

How to set my own item texture for itemstack item?

[robust pebble]

figured it out

[young knoll]

set CustomModelData in the ItemMeta

[quaint mantle]

How

[young knoll]

ItemMeta#setCustomModelData

[quaint mantle]

But it support only ints

[young knoll]

Correct

You then assign that int to a model in your resource pack

I must create resource pack and one texture name for example "1"?

And how to import it to spigot plugin folder

how long max should a method name be?

[carmine mica]

you have to host the resource pack zip somewhere and send a url to the clients

Why would that be an issue?

[quaint mantle]

I cannot find it

[near wasp]

It’s an event.

[echo basalt]

So?

[young knoll]

Events can be static

But shouldn’t be

[echo basalt]

Just like they can be private

but shouldn't be

Thing is slapping static on everything by default is a really nasty habit

[near wasp]

Shouldn’t is irrelevant to the question. It wouldn’t cause that issue.

Illusion Search Index - Asking for Help

Hey there, if you're seeing this, there's probably a chance that you've asked for help inefficiently. The goal of this post is to provide tips and tricks that will help you get help.

Let's say you want to create a textured skull item with no prior knowledge:

Before asking for help, it is important to research and attempt a solution towards your problem, I usually follow the following steps:

• Break down the problem into simple steps (In this case we want to first create an item, and them apply a texture to it)
• Research the steps individually, and understand how your steps work together (We'd figure out that we need to use the ItemStack class, and apply the texture to its meta)
• If you're struggling, google your problem. Make sure to efficiently use keywords, I usually just write spigot, followed by a 2-3 word summary (spigot custom head itemstack)
• No solutions? Look at how existing projects solve your problem (In this case I'd look at the source code of a plugin that messes with player heads, probably on GitHub)
• Still unable to find an answer? Now is the time to ask for help

When you're asking for help, it is important to describe your problem, what your solution is and any attempts you have made, as well as the expected result.

Here's an example of how to properly ask for help:

Hey there, I am currently trying to create a custom-textured skull ItemStack with a base64 texture value. I already tried using the SkullMeta class but this only allows me to pass a player instead of a base64 string. Here's my current code:

public ItemStack createSkullItem(String base64) {
    ItemStack skull = new ItemStack(Material.PLAYER_HEAD);
    SkullMeta meta = (SkullMeta) skull.getItemMeta();
    
    // I'm stuck
    
    return skull;
}

Here's an example of what not to do:

hello
how player head item works base64

When asking for help, there are a few principles that will help you get answered quicker, feel free to do research about the following:

• No Hello
• XY Problem

[terse ore]

should I use saveConfig or saveDefaultConfig?

[hazy parrot]

There is difference

saveDefault is writing from plugin resource folder

And just save is saving from memory

[terse ore]

using savedefault will overwrite what the user might have changed?

[remote swallow]

No, it will save it if it doesnt exist

Always call it on enable

[terse ore]

oh

thx

What I want my plugin to do is when the player takes lava damage, to teleport them to the corresponding teleport point.

yea but you can simulate single dimension array as 2d one

I'd say change your incriment level and then subtract a certain amount when it gets to one point to simulate a certain column, might need an if statement or two

this isnt subtractng my time when I die (dont mind the duplicate im creating a thread!)

[mortal hare]

closest thing i've got is

for (int i = 0; i < size; i += rowSize) {
  // code   
  if (i > size) {
    i %= (size-1);
  }
}

well smth like this

i swear sometimes iterating without 2d arrays like this is useful

especially when you can usage 2d arrays

in cpp for example there's no overload of [][] operator

so you can defined 2d shared pointers afaik

so you need to declare 1d instead and use it as 2d

[pseudo hazel]

yes I agree, using actual 2d arrays is so annoying

[lyric turtle]

is there way to read code of packets in nms???

[mortal hare]

netty connection pipelines

through playerconnection class inside nms player object

[lyric turtle]

oh thx

[mortal hare]

you need to inject duplex channel handler

iirc

inside netty channel handler or smth like that

[flat ruin]

this sounds like hell to deal with

[mortal hare]

i've tried it

the worst of it all that its not thread safe

as the packets sent async

so you cant access the api which is not thread safe

[flat ruin]

bruh

[mortal hare]

well you can but you need to be very careful

and not everything is safe

[lyric turtle]

cant u just use scheduler to do sync actions??

[mortal hare]

you can, but i dont remember if the registering of listeners are thread safe

prob it is

but its tick dependent

so if you have something which shouldnt depend on the tickrate its not an option

afaik there's nms server runnable method

that allows to execute in the main server's thread

without any delays

[fierce salmon]

its 0-26

oh

wait

thats for chest

[worldly ingot]

0-8 for the hotbar, 9 - 35 for the inventory slots, top left to bottom right

I am trying to make my plugin detect when a player takes lava damage, and when they do, teleport them to a specific location. For some reason, even thought java event.setCancelled(true) is after the part where I check to see if the entity is a player or not, boats are now unable to burn in lava.

hmm i cant find how ClientboundCommandsPacket is sent...

are you sure that your plugin is causing it ?

could be worldguard I guess

thanks!

i just want to know fields of ClientboundCommandsPacket in nms

like i cant find ClientboundCommandsPacket nowhere

                }
            }
        }
    }```

anyone know why this doesn't save?

most of it works, except for the part where it generates the file, but nothing is added to it

[old cloud]

no

Dont name your classes lower case

heheheha

[ivory sleet]

it only gens the file and sets the value if the file does not exist myea

[unique bay]

it generates the file, but doesn't set the value

[ivory sleet]

I'd use just new YamlConfiguration()

since ur loadConfiguration() call is useless

as the file is newly created anyway

bad naming convention

bad choice of name, else yea

YouNameClassesLikeThis

notLikeThis

yep

also

u usually add the suffix Listener, and not Event at the end of a class that implements Listener

cuz else u tell the reader that the class is a subclass of the org.bukkit.Event class

which it isnt

[zealous osprey]

heya @rare aurora, you wouldn't by any chance have run a create modded server, right? Might be confusing you with someone

[ivory sleet]

also, I like to have ur event callback methods public

anyone here good at using pdc and instances

yes

just ask away

public static void subtractTime(Player player, long hours) {

this isnt subtractng my time when I die

[ivory sleet]

lets assume u write a really large plugin

[wise mesa]

is there an easy way to loop through resources

without using like jar file

[ivory sleet]

obv the plugin is gonna have different "functionalities"

[wise mesa]

i want to save all of the resources inside a folder to the plugin's data folder

[golden turret]

how could I intercept methods like ASM but in Spigot?

[ivory sleet]

yeah, well then prob u can bundle everything in one listener

[wise mesa]

how could I access my plugin's jar file?

I want to loop through its resources

is there an easy way to get it's File or its Path

[golden turret]

I need to intercept this guy here and I thought about intercepting the whole LivingEntity#travel method and recreating it

[ivory sleet]

iirc u can use ZipFile

[wise mesa]

right but like

how can I get the file

that is my jar file

[wise mesa]

spigot doesn't really have intercepting afaik

youre meant to interact with the api

no mixins or anything

not by default at least

i do know there is a way to do it

[ivory sleet]

idk if u can maybe use FileSystems

[wise mesa]

im just curious if there's some method that'll easily give me my plugin without just doing something like getDataFolder.parent.getChild(jarname)

[ivory sleet]

Instant is immutable

ur minus returns a new instant

[robust pebble]

yep just fixed it

[ivory sleet]

(cuz of thread safety mainly)

unlike ehm... SimpleEwFormat

[wise mesa]

found it

Class.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation()

[zealous osprey]

Why not just use getResourecesAsStream()?

[wise mesa]

oh that would work too

[wise mesa]

because I asked earlier and no one responded 😅

[ivory sleet]

thought u wanted to loop through entries in ur jar file

[wise mesa]

yes

[zealous osprey]

ooh

[wise mesa]

oh would that not work

nvm then

[zealous osprey]

you use getResourcesAsStream() to get the data of a file in your plugin jar.
But if you need the jar as a file ig, you could use <Class>.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation() on some kind of "marker" class, which is in a very simple location relative to your jar?

[wise mesa]

hm

i want to loop through all resources in my jar

that's my goal

not all

most excluding some folders

[ivory sleet]

as said

ZipFile will do?

or even JarFile

[wise mesa]

yes i agree

that's what Im going to do

[ivory sleet]

then u just use ZipEntry::getName with getResource(AsStream)

[terse ore]

is there a difference between

logger.info()

and

logger.log(Level.info)

?

[ivory sleet]

info is short hand

like its just shorter

but if u need to supply an exception

[eternal oxide]

The difference is less imports 😉

[ivory sleet]

or the type is dynamic then, log(...) is what u'd use

[fierce salmon]

Is there a way to check if a player has joined the server before or not?

[eternal oxide]

Well I feel like getTicksLived() wouldn't be accurate enough. A snowball could live longer than half a minute to be honest in case you would launch the projectile (snowball) from a high amount of blocks.
!snowball.isValid() doesn't work at all in my if case...
Also, getTicksLived() > 600 wouldn't be correct, as it would have to last at least half a minute I just noticed 😆

Also I'm strangely getting a bunch of errors when trying to use the ParticleEffect library:
https://bukkit.org/threads/1-8-particleeffect-v1-7.154406/

[river hearth]

is there some method to get the optimal drops from a block, regardless of the tool? Diamond pickaxe is pretty good, but doesn't get everything.

[thick gust]

I just copied both classes "ReflectionUtils" & "ParticleEffect".

[thick gust]

What r u talking about? fortune 3?

[river hearth]

no as in like

for most blocks, getDrops with a diamond pickaxe returns what I'd want

but an example of a problem is glass, it doesn't drop anything

I'm sure there are more examples I'm not thinking of yet either

I have a value in my customconfig.yml named waterbucketclutches and I want to get the value of it +1. How would I do this?

Hi!

Don't hate, im completly new to this.
In my pom.xml, this is red:?

            <artifactId>spigot</artifactId>

Like, the red appears in between the <> things

[fierce salmon]

Are you using IntelliJ?

[dusky prawn]

Yes. :)

Sorry i didn't write that. It was important.

[fierce salmon]

Is there a little reload button at the top right of the code screen when inside the pom.xml?

[dusky prawn]

Yes, in a sidebar thing :D?

I missclicked it, but something popped up, in the bottom of my screen :p?

Wow, that was actually pretty easy, thanks!

[fierce salmon]

Of course!

[serene sigil]

hi, whats the file path to a file inside the resources folder?

[dusky prawn]

My @Override is red?

Cannot resolve symbol 'Override'

[fierce salmon]

if you are in IntelliJ you can right click the folder that says resources and copy the path i believe

[serene sigil]

ye but thats the absolute path

i want the not absolute one

[delicate lynx]

are you trying to load a resource from the jar

[serene sigil]

yes

[delicate lynx]

you don't need to specify a path

[serene sigil]

ye but when i just typed the name (and extension) it still says no such file or path

[eternal oxide]

you didn't include the file in your jar, or you kept it inside a folder

[serene sigil]

no? its inside the resources

[eternal oxide]

there is no resources folder in a jar by default

[serene sigil]

and the size of the jar also changed

[eternal oxide]

open teh jar with a zip tool and see if your file is there

[serene sigil]

alr

[dusky prawn]

When i google it, i can't really find anything?

[serene sigil]

it is there

[eternal oxide]

then how are you trying to read it?

[serene sigil]

ProcessBuilder

its an exe

[eternal oxide]

what?

you can;t execute an exe from inside a jar

[serene sigil]

oh

oof

how then`?

[eternal oxide]

This sounds odd behaviour

why are you packaging an exe?

[serene sigil]

i wanted to try out something lol

idk if it will work

[eternal oxide]

you need to extract it to a file

[quiet ice]

You can however pack a dll in the jar and run that through a few hoops

Well running isn't really the right word though

[serene sigil]

and how can i get the path?

cuz if i run it somewhere else, the path will change

what do i have to do if its in the plugins folder?

[eternal oxide]

you realize an exe will only run on windows

[serene sigil]

it is windows

[eternal oxide]

if you extract it it will extract to wherever your jar is

or where you tell it to

[serene sigil]

wait so if its in the same folder (plugins folder) then i can still call it with the name?

[eternal oxide]

yes

[hazy parrot]

You can always use relative paths

[serene sigil]

and what exception will it give me if it cant run?

[eternal oxide]

people are goign to be very suspicious of a jar extracting an exe and running it

[calm robin]

how can i change player name colors for each player? like one player sees some guys name in red but a different player sees the same player with green? like for team differentiation

friendlies show up in green on tab, enemies show up in red

something like that

how could i go about making that

[eternal oxide]

packets only

[calm robin]

ok

[eternal oxide]

sending fake teams

[calm robin]

poggers

[wise mesa]

how can I make a regex that matches strings that start with "META-INF"

[eternal oxide]

?xy

[undone axle]

http://xyproblem.info/

[wise mesa]

im looping through a set of strings

and want to exclude ones that match certain things

like starting with META-INF

but idk regex

[quiet ice]

^META-INF(.+)?$

[eternal oxide]

referencing META-INF sounds more like you are having issues creatign a working jar with shaded libs

[quiet ice]

but uh, java provides the String#startsWith method so I sure hope you cannot use that one

Also ^/?META-INF(.+)?$ is probably the better regex, but has slightly different behaviour to what you asked for

[zealous osprey]

Here are the most common characters and their corresponding width. Now just find out how wide a book page is and from there it should be fairly easy

[eternal oxide]

MC uses custom widths

which can change depending on resource pack

[wise mesa]

I am actually looping through a jar file and trying to save all resources that aren't code related

the jar file being my plugin's

[zealous osprey]

Well, ignore that for simplicities sace.

[wise mesa]

and that's why I need to exclude some things

like meta-inf

or any file that ends in .class

[eternal oxide]

it would probably be easier to specify the types of resources you want

[quiet ice]

Just ignore pom.properties, pom.xml, *.class and *.MF files then

Unless you use services for whatever ungodly reason

[wise mesa]

thank you

[wise mesa]

also ignoring any files that start with acf-

[quiet ice]

Let me guess: License files?

[wise mesa]

oh you mean my reason?

my team is making a rather complicated plugin for our server

with many data oriented parts

lots of json files and whatnot

[quiet ice]

or language files I guess. Noone seems to remember that it is required to include the license in your jar

[wise mesa]

instead of loading the resources directly

I want to load them from my data folder

so that they can be edited without recompiling

[robust pebble]

public static boolean hasExpired(Player player) {

    Instant expired = Instant.ofEpochMilli(player.getPersistentDataContainer().get(PlayerJoined.key, PersistentDataType.LONG));
    return Instant.now().isAfter(expired);
}This is not working

how can I fix this

[quiet ice]

how exactly is it not working?

[robust pebble]

like the boolean isnt true

[quiet ice]

Also it really looks like this can be done without the usage of PDC

[eternal oxide]

Its designed to use PDC

[quiet ice]

are you sure that the timestamp that is stored in the PDC is in the future?

[robust pebble]

ya

[quiet ice]

like really sure?

[eternal oxide]

does the players time show zero?

[wise mesa]

well if the timestamp is in the future

[quiet ice]

Just Sysout the instant (expired) for us

[wise mesa]

wouldn't you expect it to be false

because it hasn't expired yet?

[robust pebble]

it is - time

right now

-28 min

[quiet ice]

Yep that confuses me even more.
Either send the entire code or print expired and give out what the console has to say about it

do you want main class or command class?

command i guess

[robust pebble]

have no idea how to do that

Okay 1 moment please

[quiet ice]

that is your issue then. expired will always be the UNIX epoch then (i.e. somewhere in early 1970).

[pseudo hazel]

its literally a single line of code

With itemstacks you'd need to set the itemmeta again, but you don't have the problem with players

[nimble oxide]

Wait what

it is irrelevant for you. I made a mistake

Wrong spacing

And the message is sent to the player? I recall hasPlayedBefore having funny (i.e. ambiguous) behaviour

[robust pebble]

it works

I see from actionbar

[quiet ice]

that makes it interesting then

[lavish vortex]

hello guys

I need a little help

[eternal oxide]

I see nothign wrong with the code

other than it's untidy. you should keep all the clock code in the util class

it shoudl also be in it's own class, nothing else in it

[robust pebble]

how to check if instant expire

[quiet ice]

Yeah it should work from the looks of it

[eternal oxide]

no listener, nothing

[robust pebble]

that is question

[chrome beacon]

?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!

[eternal oxide]

you are comparing teh stored instant to a new instant

[grim hound]

What kind of strength would the snowball need to posses to fly for longer than 30s? Also isValid() checks if the snowball exists in a loaded chunk.

[robust pebble]

public static boolean hasExpired(Player player) {

        Instant expired = Instant.ofEpochMilli(player.getPersistentDataContainer().get(PlayerJoined.key, PersistentDataType.LONG));
        return Instant.now().isAfter(expired);
    }

[eternal oxide]

yes

[robust pebble]

but this exact code dosent work tho

[eternal oxide]

Instant.now().isAfter(expired)

if expired is in teh past that will return true... I th9ink

[quiet ice]

But have the 10 hours passed since then?

[eternal oxide]

check the javadoc on isAfter

[robust pebble]

you lose 1 hour if you die and gain one if you kill

[quiet ice]

Ah, show that code then

[robust pebble]

public class PlayerDeath implements Listener {
    @EventHandler
    public void PlayerDeathEvent(PlayerDeathEvent event) {
        Player p = event.getEntity();
        subtractTime(p, 1);
        p.sendMessage(DIALOG+ ChatColor.DARK_RED +"You Died... this means you have lost one hour of your life!");
        Entity n = event.getEntity().getKiller();
        if (n instanceof Player){
                Player np  = (Player) n;
                addTime(np,1);
                np.sendMessage(DIALOG+ChatColor.GREEN + "You killed someone, you get 1 Hour!");
        }
    }
}

[quiet ice]

And the subtractTime and addTime methods?

[pseudo hazel]

oh, this wont solve your issue but you can say instanceof Player np, which saves you from typing a cast manually.

unless you are on java 1.ancient ig

[quiet ice]

I guess it is the same methods as sent by ElgarL?

[robust pebble]

public static void addTime(Player player, long hours) {

        PersistentDataContainer pdc = player.getPersistentDataContainer();
        Instant expires = Instant.ofEpochMilli(pdc.getOrDefault(key, PersistentDataType.LONG, Instant.now().toEpochMilli()));
        expires = expires.plus(hours, ChronoUnit.HOURS);
        pdc.set(key, PersistentDataType.LONG, expires.toEpochMilli());
    }

    /**

Did you check whether the player that died and the killer are the same? If so that might explain why time does not change

[lavish vortex]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/276506295673290752/1114666862714818620/image.png

so

[robust pebble]

why would I need to do that

[lavish vortex]

the problem is

I suppose to have 3 lores

but I only have 1

anyone know how to resolve this issue ?

[pseudo hazel]

show the code

show the code that adds the lore

[robust pebble]

./kill maybe

[lavish vortex]

it is there

[agile anvil]

This is not spigot plugin development related, is it ?

[chrome beacon]

@lavish vortex

[quiet ice]

Well my reasoning is that if somehow suicide makes killer = player that died the timer would not reset

[pseudo hazel]

thats not java so idk what it is

[lavish vortex]

kk

[robust pebble]

it works

[agile anvil]

You should probably ask in #help-server if it's a command

[robust pebble]

/kill works

[quiet ice]

Try using \n instead of ;

[eternal oxide]

Thats a good point, but his timer would not display as -28 minutes

[robust pebble]

public void PlayerDeathEvent(PlayerDeathEvent event) {
        Player p = event.getEntity();
        subtractTime(p, 1);
        p.sendMessage(DIALOG+ ChatColor.DARK_RED +"You Died... this means you have lost one hour of your life!");
        Entity n = event.getEntity().getKiller();
        if (n instanceof Player){
                Player np  = (Player) n;
                if(!np.equals(p)) {
                    addTime(np, 1);
                    np.sendMessage(DIALOG + ChatColor.GREEN + "You killed someone, you get 1 Hour!");
                }
        }
    }

I fixed it

[quiet ice]

Well then the only possible cause that remains is that you fetch and set the death clock under different namespaced keys

[robust pebble]

the suicide problem

[robust pebble]

possible

[quiet ice]

But uh, in that case it should blow up somewhere else in the pipeline

[eternal oxide]

This is why ALL clock methods shoudl be in a single class, with the NamespacedKey

[quiet ice]

So to be honest I am at a loss.

[robust pebble]

all of em are

[eternal oxide]

NOT in your Listner

[quiet ice]

Even the #hasExpired method?

[eternal oxide]

in your code you access the adTime methods etc non static

[quiet ice]

Because the #hasExpired method seems to reference PlayerJoined.key which may be different

[eternal oxide]

they can;t be in their own class if you access them as local methods

[robust pebble]

would the two usages of creating a nnamespaced key variable be conflicting

[eternal oxide]

you shoudl not be creating two keys

[robust pebble]

public class PlayerJoined implements Listener {
    public static NamespacedKey key = new NamespacedKey(JavaPlugin.getProvidingPlugin(Main.class), "death_clock");

public class DeathClockUtils {
    private static NamespacedKey key = new NamespacedKey(JavaPlugin.getProvidingPlugin(Main.class), "death_clock");

[eternal oxide]

but no they shoudl not conflict

[robust pebble]

like this

[quiet ice]

Assuming that the plugin is the same, no - there should be no issues.

[eternal oxide]

do not have anythign to do with the clock outside of the DeathClockUtils

PlayerJoined does not need the key

[robust pebble]

thats the problem maybe

[fierce salmon]

Does IntelliJ have a Find and Replace function?

nvm i did it

[robust pebble]

ctrl shift f

[robust pebble]

I removed it

should work maybe

I removed it

now its doing this

we are using playerjoinds key

[quiet ice]

Just do key then

assuming that both are in DeathClockUtils

[robust pebble]

FOUND IT

chatColor.BLUE

oh nvm

use spigot jd

javadocs

[quiet ice]

Using spigot or paper api?

[hazy parrot]

I wouldn't say its deprecated in spigot

[quiet ice]

For latter it is something like NamedTextColor.BLUE

But uh, you'd need to use Components and all that jazz too

Yes but via Component.text(string, NamedTextColor.BLUE) (without any warranty of any kind) it should work

[eternal oxide]

You need to start listening. NOTHING for the clock out side the util class

[quiet ice]

It has been almost a year since I last touched adventure so there might be slight changes you'd need to do as I could misremember stuff

[robust pebble]

all my function is in the util class

[eternal oxide]

only 1 key, in the same class

[robust pebble]

yes fixed

[eternal oxide]

ok cool

nothing outside that class should access the PDC's

[robust pebble]

checked no uses

[quaint mantle]

ElgarL hi bro can u help me?

[robust pebble]

only in utils

[quaint mantle]

or IK_Knight ?

[robust pebble]

what u tryna do

[quaint mantle]

bro i wanna prevent tripwire rotations

[robust pebble]

i see

[quaint mantle]

do u know tripwire and states ?

but blockphysics event not working

[robust pebble]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/material/Tripwire.html

[eternal oxide]

god don;t use block physics

[robust pebble]

this has some methods you can use

nvm

all depricated

[eternal oxide]

What exactly are you trying to do with a tripwire?

[quaint mantle]

i wanna do custom plants and blocks with tripwire statements
i can set custom textures for tripwire states

[tribal quarry]

hey there, whats the best practice to register a creaturespawn event listener before the dependency plugin's creaturespawn event listener?

[quaint mantle]

so i do custom items and when click block set custom statated tripwires

but i put one more tripwire to near my main tripwire states changing

[eternal oxide]

yes they auto connect

place without physics

[quaint mantle]

u mean use blockplace event _?

and control physics with update ?

[eternal oxide]

yes, listen to blockPlace, if it's a tripwire, cancel the event and Block#setType(Material.TRIPWIRE, false)

[quaint mantle]

alright i try i need afk brb

[robust pebble]

LESGOOO

[eternal oxide]

nice

[robust pebble]

is there a way I could give someone time

[eternal oxide]

you have to kick the player as well as ban. adding a ban will not kick them

[robust pebble]

thats the depricated version of it

[eternal oxide]

no

[robust pebble]

they fixed it and made it better

[eternal oxide]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#kickPlayer(java.lang.String)

adding a ban shoudl not kick the player, last I saw

[robust pebble]

no they have new ban

system

[eternal oxide]

what?

it's the same system it's been for months that I can see

[robust pebble]

oh but its working

[eternal oxide]

ok

I guess they changed ban to also kick

[tribal quarry]

are there any events for event registration?

[eternal oxide]

only for services

[echo basalt]

reload

[thick gust]

the api came without a plugin.yml, so this error is there as well.

[echo basalt]

it just means you gotta shade it

[thick gust]

what do u mean with that xD

[eternal oxide]

?shade

I was hoping 🙂

add maven shade plugin to your pom and set the dependency to compile scope

or

if using post 1.16.5 you can use the libraries entry in plugin.yml

[thick gust]

how would that look like

[quaint tapir]

Vector velocity = endVector.subtract(boss.getLocation().toVector());
does anyone know why this line changes the value of endVector

endVector is a bukkit vector
boss is an entity

for some reason this line changes the value of endVector

[eternal oxide]

endVector is mutable

[quaint tapir]

what does that mean

[eternal oxide]

it can be changed

if you want a copy endVector.clone()

[quaint tapir]

thank you

will try it

[quaint mantle]

sry for ping i back and i tried

    @EventHandler
    public void onPlace(BlockPlaceEvent e) {
        Block block = e.getBlockPlaced();
        if (block.getType() == Material.TRIPWIRE) {
            block.setType(Material.TRIPWIRE, false);
        }
    }```

this

[eternal oxide]

cancel the event too

[quaint mantle]

not worked

oh oke

im trying

[eternal oxide]

if it still doesn;t work you will have to setType 1 tick later

[quaint mantle]

alright

[eternal oxide]

as BlockPlace is a strange event. It actually fires after teh block has changed and undoes the changes if cancelled

Bukkit.getScheduler().runTask(()-> { block.setType(Material.TRIPWIRE, false) }, plugin);

[quaint mantle]

;-;

    Plugin plugin;

    @EventHandler
    public void onPlace(BlockPlaceEvent e) {
        Block block = e.getBlockPlaced();
        if (block.getType() == Material.TRIPWIRE) {
            e.setCancelled(true);
            new BukkitRunnable(){
                @Override
                public void run(){
                    block.setType(Material.TRIPWIRE, false);
                }
            }.runTaskTimer(plugin, 1, 1);
        }
    }```

i did this is wrong ?

[eternal oxide]

not a timer

[quaint mantle]

is cooldown ?

[hazy parrot]

Have you ever initialized that plugin

[eternal oxide]

runTask

?di to pass the plugin instance to your listener

does anybody know what is the statistic that contains all player travelled distance

[eternal oxide]

step one or something

[graceful turret]

but it's like walk distancce + sprintr distance + swam distans etcc?

or should i add all together

[eternal oxide]

I believe step one is all distance

[graceful turret]

okay i will check ty

[graceful turret]

but there's no step one, only WALK_ONE

[eternal oxide]

could be

[quaint mantle]

where can i learn this means ? can u give me doc ?

i did btw thx

Why can't I cancel that task?

All 3 ways which are in comment snippet don't work.

[quaint mantle]

for the fix this i need use blockphysics event ?

works when block place but other features broke this

[eternal oxide]

what features?

[quaint mantle]

walk or ...

[eternal oxide]

thats interact event

[quaint mantle]

ah alrigh

but what is this ?

[eternal oxide]

cancel the interact event if the block is tripwire

[eternal oxide]

that looked like a normal block place to me

[quaint mantle]

idk what first tripwire state changed

[eternal oxide]

shoudl not happen if you cancel and manually place

[quaint mantle]

    public void onPlace(BlockPlaceEvent e) {
        Block block = e.getBlockPlaced();
        if (block.getType() == Material.TRIPWIRE) {
            e.setCancelled(true);
            Bukkit.getScheduler().r(plugin, () -> block.setType(Material.TRIPWIRE, false));
        }
    }```

[eternal oxide]

no annotation?

[quaint mantle]

i already cancelled

[eternal oxide]

make sure the event is annotated and registered

Bukkit.getScheduler().r ?

.r ?

[quaint mantle]

😄 isnt runtask ? oke

wait mb

i fixed to runtask

but again... ;-;

[eternal oxide]

add a sysout to make sure teh code is running

[quaint mantle]

oke,

[thick gust]

Got a solution...

        new BukkitRunnable()
        {
            public void run()
            {
                if(!player.getWorld().getEntities().contains(snowball)) {
                    snowball.remove();
                    this.cancel();
                } else {
                    player.playEffect(snowball.getLocation(), Effect.MOBSPAWNER_FLAMES, 1);
                }
            }
        }.runTaskTimer(Rpg.getInstance(), 1, 1);

[quaint mantle]

holy sh1t

wait i upload video

if i right click the broken tripwire

fixing

Is there any way to overcome this?

like renovation

[eternal oxide]

you need to cancel interact events with the wires

[quaint mantle]

no bro
i mean tripwire shows like but actually tripwire state not changed this minecraft bug

[eternal oxide]

just a client display bug then

[quaint mantle]

i will explain u with 1 more video

[quaint mantle]

yes

see ?

actually u was understand

[eternal oxide]

yep

[quaint mantle]

how do i prevent this?

[eternal oxide]

probably can't

[quaint mantle]

;-;

[wet breach]

change the blockstate

or set it

[eternal oxide]

he does

[quaint mantle]

but i was saw at some server

[wet breach]

and the metadata too?

there is a metadata for attached I believe for it

[eternal oxide]

it's a client side bug. the block hasn;t actually changed, just th eclient predictive messing up

he's placing without physics so it never connects

[wet breach]

oh, then send a update

[quaint mantle]

can i detect block around blocks and update to blocks clone ?

[wet breach]

I am thinking you probably could use sendblockchange in the api

to make the client correct itself

[eternal oxide]

the issue is knowing which block gets messed up

[wet breach]

just send them all

[wet breach]

we can't diagnose problems in regards to other implementations

[quaint mantle]

yes

[wet breach]

and therefore we only concern ourselves here in regards to spigot

[eternal oxide]

Its more likely just client. Nothign to do with server

[quaint mantle]

can i do this ?
when blockplace or break can i detect around blocks and set clones to block locations ?=

[wet breach]

not sure what you mean by clones

[robust pebble]

/givetime <Player> numofhours

I wanna do this command

[eternal oxide]

when you break you should detect it's a trip wire, cancel the event and break it your self

[quaint mantle]

clone method

[eternal oxide]

so again no physics

[quaint mantle]

actually i do this with custom items so i don't use string for place tripwire

maybe this will fix

[eternal oxide]

place, interact and break you should be cancelling all and doing yourself.

[quaint mantle]

yes i do with custom item

i have question for you guys 😄

sry about that

how can i check block faces ? but all faces not only 1

[wet breach]

getRelative()

[quaint mantle]

i explain with video

[quaint mantle]

but this only getting 1 face

i need use loop ?

[eternal oxide]

BlockFace.getValues().forEach( face -> { if (face.isCardinal()) { code } } )

[quaint mantle]

this is a paper i put everywhere

oke i do tomorrow this

but i have 1 question more

:DDDD

sry 😄

[eternal oxide]

You may have to Arrays.stream(), depending on what getValues returns

[quaint mantle]

but i wonder

i will do custom leaves with leaves distance

u guys know leaves distance ?

distance from log

this leaves is azalea leaves

if i cancel blockphysics event for this leave

works leave distances not changing

but leaves isnt does not spill

can i do this if leaves far from wood i will add scheduler and remove this leaves?

Hello,
I need some help from someone who knows NMS quite well. So I've got around 3 year old plugin which was written for me but I've never got the source code for it. Now I'm trying to modify the nms package and classes within it (it's the last thing to do actually) but my knowledge about multi-version is really poor, especially when it comes to NMS. I'm looking for someone who could modify my code and help me out with it overal (NMS).
Thanks!

Does this look good

[eternal oxide]

no

you can;t get a Player who is offline

[robust pebble]

even if theyre banned?

[eternal oxide]

Player only exist if online

[robust pebble]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

can I add a thing where it says or if theyre banned?

[eternal oxide]

instead of banning you shoul dconsider forcing them into spectator

[robust pebble]

good idea

but thats not doing any good

they will be able to tell people where bases are and stuff

can I kick them

so they relog

[eternal oxide]

force them into another world then

[robust pebble]

and get kicked again

[robust pebble]

is this ok

oh wait nvm

[robust pebble]

this only works if they are online

You know, I think everything except the hologram creation has been added to the API.

Player#sendTitle() <--- Can be used for titles and subtitles.
Player#sendBlockChange() <--- You can include a Collection<BlockState> to cover large areas.
Player#setWorldBorder() <--- Only visible to that player.

Are you sure you want to continue using NMS for all of that? Cause if you do, you never really specified your issue that you have with it.

Well, there is Player#showEntity(), but I think that relies on real entities and not packet based ones. So you could just create a new armorstand and pass it through there.

Also, when it comes to holograms, we now have Text Display entities, so maybe there is something that could be added.

[robust pebble]

how would I create a void world and load it and then make a player teleport there

[kind hatch]

You're dealing with scoreboards, any existing data may have numbers in front because the way the scoreboard calculates order is done alphabetically. You also never showed a screenshot of the output you are dealing with.

[untold jewel]

Does someone know of a good scoreboard api for 1.19?

I like FastBoard, but other than that just the Normal one is fine

it was improved recently

You need to create your own chunk generator and then create the new world using it. Then you can teleport your player after it's created.

[unique bay]

some part about the item meta here causes an issue

[unique bay]

somebody right above me pasted one of the same size, so i figured i could

[kind hatch]

They got ignored though. lol

[unique bay]

not really

sorry for the code wall

I'm just lost

[lavish robin]

Look into guard clauses, your nested code makes it incredibly difficult to read.

[kind hatch]

What's your actual issue though?

[unique bay]

it's my first so it's not exactly the best yet

[unique bay]

the only issue I get in game is unhandled exception

the first part runs fine when the amount is under 100

I figure it's something to do with the PDC

[hazy parrot]

What exception

[unique bay]

it doesn't say

[kind hatch]

Do you have any sort of stacktrace?

[unique bay]

only unhandled exception when the command is run

[hazy parrot]

Can you show it

[unique bay]

I can't show it, can't attach images

[hazy parrot]

Is that the entire thing or is there more?

[thick gust]

How can I get the loc at where a player is looking? It has to be on a block...

[unique bay]

there is more but it doesn't look like it'll help

[kind hatch]

Player#getTargetBlock()

[unique bay]

it's hard to show all of this on feather

[thick gust]

I already found this, but it requires 2 parameters...

[kind hatch]

Ok, what's the problem with that?

[thick gust]

" java.util.Set<org.bukkit.Material> set,
int i"

I don't know what those are

[kind hatch]

You could try using Player#getTargetBlockExact() as it only has one parameter. Although it may or may not ignore fluids. Hence the second method.

[thick gust]

There is no method called like that..

[kind hatch]

Unless you are using an ancient version of the game, there is.

[thick gust]

My compiler can't find one (no auto complete) 😉

[kind hatch]

What version of the API are you using?

[thick gust]

So basically the first parameter can be null / empty or like an empty object and the 2nd one is the range. So if a player is targetting a block having a distance of 50+ blocks, and you insert in 2nd parameter an int of 20, the block will be empty?

[thick gust]

1.12.1

[livid dove]

What hold up did you get what to do from the paper dev help folk and then, when you hit an error , come to the spiggot discord?

Ngl I respect the chad play 😂😎

[kind hatch]

The point of that first parameter is to list the blocks you want to treat as transparent. Meaning ones that you want to ignore. Could be useful if you want to check if the player is looking at a block through a glass block or smth.

Or maybe through things like flowers or grass.

[kind hatch]

You can paste the entire stacktrace.

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[thick gust]

that's not necessary.

                                Location destination = p.getTargetBlock(new HashSet<>(), 20).getLocation();
                                p.teleport(destination);

I came up with this now..

[worldly ingot]

Exact was added in 1.13.2

[kind hatch]

Can't really help you otherwise as your code looks fine, but without the full stacktrace, it's hard to pin down why you are getting the errors.

Bukkit.getServer().getPluginCommand("trickster").setExecutor(new TricksterCommand(this));

🙃

This line of code is throwing an error

[worldly ingot]

trickster isn't defined in your plugin.yml

That's all

[thick gust]

oh right

thanks lol

happens

[worldly ingot]

I wonder if maybe we can throw a more explicit exception here instead of returning null

The amount of times I see beginners fuck this up is crazy

[robust pebble]

how do I create a world and load it

[lavish robin]

In my plugin, could I have different package that handle different things have their own listeners? for example I if I have a lobby package with its own listeners and it checks to see if it applies to that package. Or is it better to just have one listener, and have some sort of way to give that data to the package that is going to be using it?

[robust pebble]

and then teleport a certain player there

[thick gust]

p.teleport(Location location);

[robust pebble]

^^^

[worldly ingot]

You're better off using this.getCommand() by the way

Does some sanity checks to ensure it's actually your plugin's command

[thick gust]

whatever

works the same

[worldly ingot]

Not really

[kind hatch]

What? Can you please elaborate more on that?

[worldly ingot]

JavaPlugin#getCommand() calls Server#getPluginCommand() but ensures the string is lowercased, fallsback to namespaced commands if it's overridden by another plugin, and ensures that the command you get was actually registered by your plugin

[thick gust]

Doesn't work by the way @kind hatch

Teleports me exactly at the same loc as the player has already been

[lavish robin]

Ok, so I have a minigame server that I am working on, where there are multiple different I guess zones that a player could be in, a lobby, or a minigame. I was thinking about making it so there was one player listener that passed down events to the code controlling the different zones (lobby or minigame) But I was wondering if instead each zone could just have it's own events registered and handle them internaly. (would make splitting it into seperate plugins easier later if I wanted to do that).

[kind hatch]

Well, I don't use those methods too often, but I think there's limitations to them. IIRC, #getTargetBlock() is limited to what you can reach, and #getTargetBlockExact() is unrestricted. (Obf if you are looking at the sky in the distance, you won't go anywhere.)

[lavish robin]

Could you use a raytrace?

[robust pebble]

how to force gamemode on a player

[kind hatch]

Player#setGamemode()?

[robust pebble]

thanks
