[swift dew]

in some rare cases it may happen so

[eternal oxide]

In what situation would you ever be spawnign 50 items in a second?

[swift dew]

okay ty

[swift dew]

multiple players that had many rare drops

[eternal oxide]

not very rare if you are going to log 50 of them a second

[swift dew]

i think usually 1-5 things are logged per sec, 50 things is a very rare case

[eternal oxide]

I guess my idea of rare differs to yours

I'd say a 5% chance is rare

[swift dew]

by rare i meam <1%

but imagine if u roll 100+ rngs per sec

[eternal oxide]

less then 1% would mean you are dropping millions of drops per second if you log 1-5

[swift dew]

with 50 players its possible

[swift dew]

there are more than 1 players

also rn i also log semi rare

the actual rare drops i need to log may be like 1 per 10-60 sec

50 per sec is hypothetical

[round finch]

getDrops?

[swift dew]

to know how much lags it can cause

getDrops?

[eternal oxide]

it will all depend on how you save it

[swift dew]

okay ty

[subtle folio]

i guess technically a discord webhook is async

[slim wigeon]

Alot of entities equals server lag and fps lag, be careful with that

[slim wigeon]

Is it possible for chickens to spawn in caves?

[sullen marlin]

Don't think so

[young knoll]

Is the standard for custom blocks still the same? Noteblocks, mushroom blocks, string, leaves, and armor stands?

Actually I guess it would be display entities over armorstands now

[slim wigeon]

Can I talk to you privately about something?

[sullen marlin]

No

[humble tulip]

Lmfaooo

[slim wigeon]

I think bukkit is illegally sharing your jars

[young knoll]

You mean get bukkit?

Yeah everyone is aware

I’m not sure how it works legally with spigot itself since spigot is GPL, but it’s definitely a violation of Mojang’s copyright

Mojang don’t seem interested in pursuing it though

[slim wigeon]

Maybe its that TOS needs changing because it must be useful for them to not care. As a note, they blacklist servers who does pay-2-win

[zenith gate]

how would one go about getting coordinates from a config file?

[young knoll]

Locations can be read and written directly

If you just want an xyz I believe vector can also be read and written directly

[zenith gate]

Im aware, but getting it from a config, you usually do getConfig().getInt(PATH) or getConfig().getBoolean(PATH)

is there something specific i need?

most things are not working.

[slim wigeon]

Like this?world:197:65:-122: Player: <My UUID> Location: World: world X: 197 Y: 65 Z: -122 Filters: WhiteList: [] BlackList: [] VoidList: [] Options: Suction: false BlockBreak: false AutoSell: true

[sullen marlin]

Pretty sure there's getLocation

[young knoll]

There’s getLocation

Or there’s get(path, class) for general use

[zenith gate]

Oh... I did not see that at all. 😭

[slim wigeon]

Yes, how I get these values from above. Its the function to use

[slim wigeon]

I do this, I going to show you how I do this as a example

[zenith gate]

huh?

[slim wigeon]

Look at these files, that is how I save and load Location. I hope this helps you get it working

Main.java: https://paste.md-5.net/ajehatatux.java
BlockListeners.java: https://paste.md-5.net/lobucupone.java
Hopper.java: https://paste.md-5.net/xegucuroye.cs
DataManager.java: https://paste.md-5.net/tatepajunu.java

[slim wigeon]

Tell me if this helps you

[bold gorge]

I still can't figure out for my life how to send packets to change a nametag.
Is there a way I can maybe use bukkit api or am I forced into protocollib?

[zenith gate]

not really. getting this error.

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: location

From this method.

public static void teleportToVault(Player player) {
        if(!(playerVaultCheck(player))) return;
        World vault = plugin.getServer().getWorld(player.getName() + "_Vault");
        if(isWorldLoaded(player.getName() + "_Vault")) {
            assert vault != null;
            Location configSpawn = plugin.getConfig().getLocation("Vaults.SpawnLocation");
            vault.setSpawnLocation(configSpawn); // ERROR HERE

            Location spawn = vault.getSpawnLocation();
            player.teleport(spawn);
        } else {
            player.sendMessage(ChatColor.YELLOW + "Loading world... Please wait.");
            loadWorld(player.getName() + "_Vault");

        }
    }

[slim wigeon]

I don't use config.getLocation() if you notice by the files above. I just use Strings and Integers

[zenith gate]

could that be why? should i put like values in the config like this?

Vaults:
  SpawnLocation:
    X: 0
    Y: -50
    Z: 0

and grab the integer?

[slim wigeon]

Yes but you need the String for the world

[zenith gate]

wdym for the world?

[bold gorge]

you also need to supply a world

[slim wigeon]

From Main.java Block block = new Location( getServer().getWorld(this.data.getString(section+".Location.World")), this.data.getInt(section+".Location.X"), this.data.getInt(section+".Location.Y"), this.data.getInt(section+".Location.Z") ).getBlock();

[bold gorge]

which you can just put in SpawnLocation too

[zenith gate]

oh yeah vault is the world.

[slim wigeon]

You doing more than thatplayer.getName() + "_Vault"

[zenith gate]

That's the worlds name.

Whena. player creates a vault, it is copying a world, changing its name, applying a world border, and a spawn location.

[slim wigeon]

Not listed in the config so this line will always be nullplugin.getConfig().getLocation("Vaults.SpawnLocation")

[zenith gate]

but how am i suppose to list every single vault thats created? there are zero to start with.

a player has to get the item or an admin runs the command /vault create

[slim wigeon]

I don't know, not my project. If it was my plugin, I would have got the world name somewhere

[zenith gate]

json config file? Can put every single vault in there, along with the world properties.

[slim wigeon]

yaml config file. Its different from json. But you don't need to add world properties in there. Just the world name and player vault names as well

[zenith gate]

Okay, so why would I need this? not trying to sound like im putting you down, just Why would i need a config file full of all the worlds?

[slim wigeon]

Example, I have a minimap forge mod and its a waypoint system. Now when I go to Nether and set a waypoint there, it disappears when I leave the Nether. The reason it disappears is because you not in that world but how does it know you in that world? Its because it saves the world name to the waypoint entry. Its just if you going to have multi-worlds, saving world names is needed

[eternal oxide]

is this world only accessible by this player, or can others join?

[zenith gate]

Ohhhh okay I understand. That actually makes a lot of sense, and now that you put it that way it brings some other ideas to light.

[zenith gate]

As of right now, only by the player. every player can create and join their own world, as of right now there is no way for other players to join others worlds unless they have the same name.

[eternal oxide]

Why not put a simple boolean in teh Players PDC to say if they have a vault?

no need for any data files/config

[zenith gate]

Uhh because at the time I didnt think about that, and right now when a player tries to join their vault it checks if they have a vault world, I would check if they had a vault by their name and if the world folder existed.

It's not good, and as of right now im just trying to get the basics to work, and after that, I am going to clean up and optimize it a little better.

[eternal oxide]

rather than a boolean you could store an ID, that would allow them to still access the world if they changed their name

[zenith gate]

oh you so right I haven't thought about name changes.

[young knoll]

You could also just use uuid for the world name

[eternal oxide]

isn;t there a world name limit?

[zenith gate]

yes but you can put the world folder into another folder

[young knoll]

I doubt a uuid is too long for a world name

[zenith gate]

Would it be better to unload the world after someone leaves the vault or to keep it open until the server ends.

[eternal oxide]

32 characters I think

set the world to not keep spawn in memory and you can safely leave it loaded

[zenith gate]

Okay that'll be a lot better. right now I just have it set to load and unload the world when a player leaves and joins. The server takes a pretty big performance hit when a vault is loaded tho. I don't know if its because How i am loading the world, or if its just because its loading a world. There's a lot i still have to disect.

[bold gorge]

I still can't figure a way until now because it's funky according to me to change a name tag, 3rd time.
I'm using PL (protocollib) 5.0.0, can someone help?

[remote swallow]

this just seems like bad design

[quaint mantle]

hey how would i get the uuid of the person using a command, i can't seem to figure it out

[remote swallow]

cast sender to player and getUniqueId

better to use instanceof tho

[quaint mantle]

ty

[remote swallow]

public boolean onCommand(stuff) {
    if (sender instanceof Player) {
          Player player = (Player) sender;
    }

[zenith gate]

public boolean onCommand(stuff) {
    if (sender instanceof Player player) {
          
    }

can also do this if you want. will work the same.

[quaint mantle]

yeah so as a string output it would be?

[remote swallow]

that one works on java 17 or higher iirc

[bold gorge]

I recommend just doing this:

if (!(sender instanceof Player player)) return false;

[remote swallow]

retunrs UUID, then just call toString

[bold gorge]

or even better, use an annotation-based command framework

my personal favorites are Lamp

[zenith gate]

Oh, really?

[bold gorge]

java 16

[remote swallow]

its 16 or 17, dont remember which but only one and above has the variable adding in the if

[paper marlin]

spigot.yml

moved-too-quickly-multiplier: 10

spigot cancells if someone tries to teleport further than 10 blocks how can i get that XYZ before spigot cancells(for my plugin)

[cedar pine]

So in reference to this, this should be the correct item to use, right?

[remote swallow]

that wouldnt give you a pdc item

its saved under PublicBukkitValues

[strange rain]

Does spigot have a way to edit nbt directly without nms?

[eternal oxide]

PDC is stored in nbt. but you can;t access nbt ouside the pdc

?pdc

[undone axle]

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

[river oracle]

you'll have to use NBT-API for that if you need to edit actual NBT

cases for this are few and far between though

[young knoll]

There’s api for pretty much all NBT values

[strange rain]

Who likes dependencies tho

Sigh

[river oracle]

me :#

I use like 10

[strange rain]

I just hate the idea of having to wait for crap to update

[river oracle]

If you use popular ones they update within a day or two

[strange rain]

And if you code your plugin around one api and they stop updating it then you have to find a whole new one

[river oracle]

If you cant wait a day or two you have a problem

[strange rain]

And refactor ur code

[eternal oxide]

what nbt are you looking to access?

[strange rain]

I like my code as raw as possible

[strange rain]

Nothing just curious

[river oracle]

Very unlikely

That big depends stop updating

[strange rain]

Me programming in assembly for my Minecraft plugins

[strange rain]

Maybe I am paranoid that it makes life so simple

[hybrid spoke]

have fun with that in long term

you dont want to make everything yourself

especially if you dont have any experience on that topic

[strange rain]

^

[eternal oxide]

I like minimal dependencies myself

[strange rain]

Hey I get to learn things fast

[hybrid spoke]

you learn how to create bugs and security vulnerabilities fast

[eternal oxide]

But I also have no intention on inventing the wheel again

[strange rain]

I learn how to prevent those fast

[young knoll]

Real gamers don’t even depend on spigot

[strange rain]

It’s a cycle of learning

[hybrid spoke]

if its avoidable yes. dont overfill your dependencies

[cedar pine]

So I would need the item within the code too?

[strange rain]

If your to scared to delve deeper you’ll struggle with everything

You’re

[hybrid spoke]

90% of them you will only find if you either get hacked, something really dumb happens or everything breaks

so yeah no

[strange rain]

Hard situations are the most memoriable

[eternal oxide]

imho learnign through failure is the best way to learn

[remote swallow]

pdc is stored under PublicBukkitValues, you would need to copy how bukkit adds pdc to items

[hybrid spoke]

not just an opinion

you actually do

[young knoll]

PublicBukkitValues is just a container tag

[quaint mantle]

Hey guys i want a /pay system like /pay username 20m

how would i do thtat?

[dire pumice]

guys i'm using multiverse to create two seperate worlds, one for tutorial and the other for playing, how can i set up a single player's spawn in survival world after he completes the tutorial??

[quaint mantle]

you could set the players spawn via skript

[dire pumice]

skript?

[quaint mantle]

yea

[remote swallow]

why are you telling people to use skript in help dev

[late sonnet]

[quaint mantle]

sorry

[quaint mantle]

could you answer my question?

[quaint mantle]

..

[remote swallow]

are you using vault

[quaint mantle]

yea

[remote swallow]

use ends with to determin how much it is, that see if said player has that much, if they do remove the money and give it to the other player

[quaint mantle]

im saying is there a setting/plugin

[remote swallow]

oh #help-server

[quaint mantle]

oh ty

[remote swallow]

essentials has a /pay command, no 20m thing

[quaint mantle]

yea ik

i want the 20m

Also

i want to get into spigot deving

any sources?

[remote swallow]

do you know java

[cedar pine]

I'm confusion now

[quaint mantle]

you would reconmend

[hybrid spoke]

[hybrid spoke]

?jd-s

[undone axle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot

[hybrid spoke]

i will take that as a no

[cedar pine]

should I just use a different method to check for specific items to break blocks/get xp

[remote swallow]

your current methods are fine

just the way you were using the give command

[remote swallow]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/how-to-create-your-first-minecraft-plugin-using-the-spigot-api-and-maven/

[cedar pine]

Ahh, so rather I'd need to run a command that gives the pick with the acutal pdc data?

[remote swallow]

item{PublicBukkitValues: {"key", "string"}} iirc

[slim wigeon]

Skript is another lang in its self. While you don't have to compile files but its not the only way to set player spawns. Look at the bukkit player docs. Spigot is the same for bukkit

[crisp escarp]

https://paste.gg/p/anonymous/5be7f171ae3b4ce89cf072eaae901834

any1 know what my issue could be?

Im trying to create a plugin that doesn't require you to be in a server with other players, and are able to create local instances of Psuedo IP's using the Citizens API to test for multiple IP-addresses connected, effectively kicking the player, and destroying the npc

[cedar pine]

ohhhh

so I need the actual quotations

[remote swallow]

plus the container for it but yeah

[cedar pine]

Okay, understood

Thanks chief 🫡

[remote swallow]

np

[kind hatch]

What in the? Why bother making NPCs when you can just compare the IPs themselves? A Map<String, Player> would suffice. Then when a player joins, check if the map contains that IP and kick the player.

[crisp escarp]

I want to test functionality

So. making an NPC that has the same IP address as me will tell me whether or not it works

[quaint mantle]

i'm trying to make a command where it secretly runs a mc command, and the issue is when i do it, because it uses console it logs it in console and sends it to all operators, is there any way to avoid this? java if (args.length >= 1) { String command1 = String.join(" ", args); System.out.println(command1); Bukkit.dispatchCommand(console, command1);

[cedar pine]

This may be the wrong chat but I cannot figure out the command to spawn the correct pickaxe

[echo basalt]

bros casually trying to make a forceop

[quaint mantle]

💯 im not trust

[strange rain]

What is a forceop

[quaint mantle]

backdoor plugin

[strange rain]

So your tryna back door someone

[quaint mantle]

nah

[strange rain]

Yah

[quaint mantle]

💯

[strange rain]

Gamerules?

[quaint mantle]

yeah, but i couldnt figure out the gamerule change in spigot, i tried what it says on the docs but idk, not many examples of it online

[zenith gate]

@eternal oxide I forgot what you said about leaving the vaults loaded, it was something about not hurting the performance if they were kept loaded so i didnt have to unload them.

[strange rain]

ChatGPT

[quaint mantle]

yeah got it thanks, just foiund one

[eternal oxide]

ensure you set teh world to not keep the spawn chunk loaded

[strange rain]

Why don’t you just unload and load them if the sever isn’t using much usage at the moment

Or one at a time

[eternal oxide]

no point

it will just cause lag when he loads

[strange rain]

I thought it was because multiple people were joining and leaving

Can you load a world async?

[eternal oxide]

nope, it's world loading, its slow

[zenith gate]

world loading is insanely slow

[hybrid spoke]

no

[strange rain]

Alright I got an idea never unload it😊

[zenith gate]

thank you.

[zenith gate]

That is going to be the plan lol. The worlds will be loaded when a player joins and it wont be unloaded until a server restart.

[strange rain]

Who made Minecraft run so slow

I need to talk to them

[echo basalt]

that seems like a problem that cosmos could fix

[zenith gate]

cosmos?

[strange rain]

It’s a frikin block game

[echo basalt]

https://github.com/IllusionTheDev/Cosmos

[zenith gate]

with poor coding. bedrock has it so much better.

hahaha, I agree.

[hybrid spoke]

https://tenor.com/view/patrick-its-okay-rocky-you-go-when-you-feel-like-it-gif-21084732

[strange rain]

Is it even possible to recode Minecraft without destroying everything ever built off it in the history of ever?

[hybrid spoke]

no

what you mean is refactoring

[noble lantern]

i could do it

[strange rain]

Mojama hire dis guy

[noble lantern]

3 weeks

||/s||

[strange rain]

But then you have to fix code which is lamer than redoing it

[noble lantern]

redoing it would mean you gotta redo everything lol that wouldnt be fun

even for a full game studio

[strange rain]

Still lame :p

[young knoll]

Tis why it gets done in parts

[hybrid spoke]

alright kiddo, time to go sleep

[strange rain]

lol i have restarted projects on to many times

[young knoll]

1.20 had a new lighting engine for example

[noble lantern]

that one mf who stays up 3 days straight refactoring his project:

[strange rain]

With a gun or melatonin?

[remote swallow]

melatonin

[young knoll]

It’s called adderal

[strange rain]

No just 3 cases of Red Bull

[echo basalt]

am I the only one who chugs it like it's a shot?

[strange rain]

I don’t even drink energy drinks

[echo basalt]

picked that habit up when I started drinking them for breakfast

[strange rain]

I’d rather live that extra 2 years

[echo basalt]

I hope I don't

[strange rain]

Need therapy

?

[hybrid spoke]

need death

[echo basalt]

probably

or just something interesting to do for once that doesn't leave me crippled

[strange rain]

Death or therapy?

[echo basalt]

both

[strange rain]

Oh

[echo basalt]

either one solves my problems

went paddle-boarding the other day and my legs were sore for a week straight

never leaving the house again

[strange rain]

Then do it until it doesn’t hurt!

[young knoll]

If you remove your legs they can’t hurt

[echo basalt]

I also fell face-first and ate seaweed

[strange rain]

You also can’t walk…

[zenith gate]

they will hurt. you'll feel the pain in your legs even tho you dont got it.

[echo basalt]

phantom pain

[strange rain]

Actually?

[zenith gate]

yes

[strange rain]

liar

[echo basalt]

liar liar pants on fire

[zenith gate]

its because of the nerves. in your legs.

[subtle folio]

is it possible to get a players chat width px?

[echo basalt]

no packet for that

[strange rain]

I don’t got nerves if it’s gone!

[subtle folio]

cmon man

[echo basalt]

cut your blood circulation off if you want zero pain

[subtle folio]

you can get other settings and keybinds i though

[echo basalt]

nope

[zenith gate]

yes you will. wherever you cut your leg off the nerves there will send the pain signal to your brain and you will feel it.

[subtle folio]

csnt you change it

recode mc for me please

[echo basalt]

oh okay

5 grand

[strange rain]

Bro my nerves got Bluetooth

[subtle folio]

thanks liaison

[zenith gate]

ill do it for a happy meal

[echo basalt]

<3

[echo basalt]

I ate a happy meal the other day

I am still sad

[young knoll]

Phantom pain isn’t guaranteed

Roll the dice

[subtle folio]

when coll gets hired he’ll fix it

[echo basalt]

I'm literally the character on my tshirt

[subtle folio]

no way

[strange rain]

Genetic?

[echo basalt]

this dude

[subtle folio]

are you wearing oh

nvm

i thought you made your own merch

[echo basalt]

no

[strange rain]

I buy two happy meal for this dude

[young knoll]

Could be genetic

Google also seems to suggest it could be related to issues in the spinal cord or brain

[strange rain]

Me when no off topic moment

[subtle folio]

is there a simple way to send a bar that’s the full width of the chat

and not going over?

[noble lantern]

i wish my doctors gave me that shit

[young knoll]

Nope

I generally just assume the default width

[subtle folio]

so I can’t copy this to accompany for all sceeen sixes

[young knoll]

Nop

[echo basalt]

no that's just a general estimation

[young knoll]

You have no way of knowing what their width is

[subtle folio]

damn ok

[echo basalt]

I'm not kidding

[subtle folio]

stupid mc

[echo basalt]

somehow this tshirt is whiter than me

[subtle folio]

are you wearing a ski mask in doors

[young knoll]

He’s robbing someone’s place

[echo basalt]

no I wanted to do something funny but ms-paint sucks as a drawing app

[subtle folio]

i see

[echo basalt]

I was gonna go a smiley face with a crown and a big frown but this is just too thin

and scary

[strange rain]

I’ll make it 3

[subtle folio]

yk you can me the size bigger 😂

[echo basalt]

trust me

I'm an ms-paint expert

[subtle folio]

even bigger

[young knoll]

Fuckin

[subtle folio]

with the .prop file

[young knoll]

What’s an ms paint

I only speak paint.net

[echo basalt]

Anyways feel free to star the project if it helps you

Helps get the ball rollin'

I'll publish it on spigot one day

once my seasonal depression kicks off

[young knoll]

Just get it on the black market

For legal reasons that’s a joke

[subtle folio]

what does cosmos do i have no clue

[echo basalt]

It essentially manages .schematics and does world pooling

basically you make an area

and you can save it in a database

[young knoll]

It floods worlds to make a pool

[echo basalt]

and import from one database to another

[young knoll]

Got it

[zenith gate]

Hahaha yeah i get it. I will for sure look into it. the World pooling is exactly what i need. ill have never ender worlds for the amount of people there could be.

[echo basalt]

You can then manage those templates with a gui and paste them in a "grid"

and that grid is just a weird supplier that determines the best paste location

You can have a grid that's literally a grid, or a "grid" that just returns a world from a world pool and a preset location at that pooled world

[subtle folio]

lol

[echo basalt]

It also has a session system that automatically does the entire process

You just call loadOrCreateSession on player join and unloadAutomaticallyIn(time) on player quit

and it keeps the session open for a given amount of time so that if the player rejoins, it cancels the unload request

and basically has a time window for reconnects and all

https://github.com/IllusionTheDev/Cosmos/tree/master/Cosmos-Plugin/src/main/java/me/illusion/cosmos/pool/world

[zenith gate]

is this all asynchronous?

[subtle folio]

so like i could have a default schematic that gets loaded into a grid per player

[echo basalt]

Tries its best

[echo basalt]

Yes

[subtle folio]

oh cool

[strange rain]

If you were a spigot class what class would you be and why?

[echo basalt]

Some things can't be done async

[echo basalt]

CraftEntity

[strange rain]

Why

[remote swallow]

CraftEvil

[echo basalt]

look at its code

it's unsettling

but also essential

[echo basalt]

Using FAWE instead of worldedit helps but world loads can't be done async

[zenith gate]

Yeah, that's what my problem was. When loading the world, it quite literally stopped the rest of the server, to load the world.

[echo basalt]

Then just use a single world grid

https://github.com/IllusionTheDev/Cosmos/blob/master/Cosmos-Plugin/src/main/java/me/illusion/cosmos/template/grid/impl/SingleWorldGrid.java

SingleWorldGrid.builder().distanceBetweenAreas(123123).build();

[strange rain]

Oml the nesting is insane

[echo basalt]

make sure to register your grid if you want things to go smoothly

[strange rain]

Ah not that bad

[echo basalt]

Thank chatgpt I'm braindead

[round finch]

its math

[echo basalt]

I'm still braindead

I failed 8th grade trig

[round finch]

[strange rain]

Is that not a paradox

[fallen scaffold]

Does anyone know something changed in itemStack.serialize()? I get java.io.NotSerializableException error now in CraftMetaColorableArmor when i want to serialize enchanted itemstack....

[echo basalt]

no it's 8th grade trig

[round finch]

i have only done 9th daily math test

[strange rain]

Trig in 8th grade or trig for eight graders?

[echo basalt]

both

I failed trig in 8th grade

[strange rain]

What

No

[echo basalt]

and 8th grader trig in 11th grade

[strange rain]

It’s one or the other

[echo basalt]

no it's 8th grade trig

[strange rain]

Are you American

[echo basalt]

no

[strange rain]

Okay that explains everything

[zenith gate]

whys that?

[echo basalt]

it literally doesn't

[strange rain]

Cuz with American education no school be teaching trig to 8th graders

[echo basalt]

I learned trig on 6th grade

to make the minecraft ploogins

[strange rain]

Also nobody says ploogins

[echo basalt]

(I thought I was cool and could make custom boss battles that look cool)

(I still can't)

[strange rain]

I have something to admit

I can’t either 😔

[echo basalt]

I do want to focus a bit more on like

just models, particle effects and uhh minigames this year

[strange rain]

I can taunt others for doing something weirdly tho so ha ha

[echo basalt]

odd that I applied to hypixel last year and they brought me in for interviews

but this year I reapplied and they didn't answer

[strange rain]

Minigames are so fun to do

[echo basalt]

They're quite boring actually

and I can get one done in like an all-nighter

[strange rain]

Hypixel uses spigot for housing right?

[echo basalt]

no clue

their tech is so old it's barely considered spigot

[strange rain]

Me when 1.8 nerds

[echo basalt]

custom 1.7 patch

[strange rain]

Hypixel probably custom coded all of the sever side just to show off they make millions of dollars a year

[echo basalt]

not really

they have more stuff to do than tech debt

[strange rain]

Shhh

Let me think I am right

[noble lantern]

theyre jars prolly barebones asf

[strange rain]

Just for one day

[echo basalt]

p much

no one cares about advancements

or achievements at the time

or all the different biomes present on their skywars maps

[noble lantern]

statistics and world gens prolly ripped too

Player data files? those gone too useless for them

[strange rain]

I say we boycott Hypixel

[echo basalt]

So they just impl it on the protocol but don't bother

[strange rain]

To cause a surge in other servers

[echo basalt]

player inventories are probably a hashmap wrapper

Who cares about itemmeta too just inline it

I remember patching custom patching 1.12 -> 1.14 by adding pdc and keeping all the laggy stuff out

We just patched the nms itemstack class to have a setCustomModel method

[strange rain]

Pdc is persistent data container?

[echo basalt]

yea

[strange rain]

I have something to admit

[echo basalt]

YOO I found the ugly itemstack code

always wondered where this was

[strange rain]

I’ve only know Java for like 3 weeks and I am freakishly good at it

[echo basalt]

been doing it for like 6-7 years

it's boring

[strange rain]

It so odd having to think about the future when your coding in Java

I love it

[echo basalt]

CompletableFuture

[eternal oxide]

I've been coding for 40+ years and of all teh languages Java is my favorite

[strange rain]

In other languages you just code on a linar time line

[echo basalt]

we get it, you're old

[eternal oxide]

lol

[echo basalt]

man's never been around a concurrent environment

[strange rain]

Heh teach meh what reflection is

[eternal oxide]

Second would be Delphi/Pascal

[strange rain]

Seriously wtf is it

I am so confused

[eternal oxide]

reflection is many things, it's not just one

it allows you to access class internals you would not otherwise be able to access

[strange rain]

Then why do they group it

[strange rain]

Protected stuff?

[eternal oxide]

yes

[echo basalt]

All fun and games until

Task 4 has finished!
Task 1 has finished!
Task 3 has finished!
Task 2 has finished!

hits

[eternal oxide]

you can also replace things

[strange rain]

I don’t get it

[echo basalt]

you have multiple linear timelines

[strange rain]

That’s probably why it’s funny

[echo basalt]

aka multithreading

[strange rain]

Processes

?

[echo basalt]

No just threads running the same thing

[strange rain]

Async crap

[echo basalt]

You can have issues with it like

[round finch]

Thread join

[echo basalt]

if 2 things try saving to the same file at once

boom

explosion

[echo basalt]

not a good idea

As for reflection

It's just an api within java that lets you mess with classes and fields natively

So you can for example get a class called "String" and create a new instance

[strange rain]

Can you change a method with reflection?

[echo basalt]

No

It just lets you get existing stuff and call it

[strange rain]

Is there anyway to do that?

[echo basalt]

Bytecode manipulation

[strange rain]

Well that sounds fun

[echo basalt]

So something like mixins

[noble lantern]

nodejs moment

[strange rain]

I want to swap argz in some random method and confuse the crap out of people

👍

Probably like location constructor

[astral scroll]

I have this code for custom configs: https://paste.md-5.net/avikohudiv.java
It is actually saving the file into the plugin folder, but not writing the stuff i write into resources:
Supposed to write this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/741875863271899136/1118206962044248134/image.png
Actually looks like this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/741875863271899136/1117990345154764841/image.png

[strange rain]

That sucks

[noble lantern]

~~when saving custom config files from your plugins jar file (resources folder normally)

use Plugin#saveResource~~

and provide the path to the file inside your jar file for the string

wait

huh

[strange rain]

Why do people use hashtags

For methods

[noble lantern]

javadoc method referance

[strange rain]

I mean

[astral scroll]

Im doing that

[strange rain]

We have ::

[kind hatch]

Hashtag sexier

[noble lantern]

Question are you not shading your config file into your jar by chance? try opening your jar and see if its in there

[strange rain]

Fair enough

[astral scroll]

what u mean?

[kind hatch]

Tbh, it was probably just a way to differentiate the language from C and C++. Although it could also be due to Java not having :: at a certain point in time.

[strange rain]

What class does a method reference even return?

[noble lantern]

IE

Right click your plugin jar with winrar -> see if your config file is in there after you compile your plugin

If its not send your pom.xml/gradle

[astral scroll]

Oh Okay

lemme se

[strange rain]

Should I actually change spigot api to 1.20 in plugin and recompile or just re upload the 1.19.4 one cuz it works just fine

And say it works for 1.30

1.20

[jagged monolith]

If you change it to 1.20 make sure you put it as '1.20'

include the ' otherwise it will error

[strange rain]

What if I don’t and put it as 1.20

[kind hatch]

You'll get an error.

[strange rain]

so I have to recompile it?

For it to work in 1.20

[noble lantern]

you have to do this

[jagged monolith]

If you change the api-version to 1.20 you need to make it '1.20' otherwise it will error out and not load.

[strange rain]

Sigh

So you can’t use a 1.19 plugin on 1.20?

[jagged monolith]

I didn't say that

[strange rain]

Even though there weren’t any significant changes

[noble lantern]

ngl rly brave of spigot to make api version a float/double

Dont get why a enum/string set wouldnt of worked better

[strange rain]

You just said it would error

[kind hatch]

There were significant changes between 1.19 and 1.20. There were insignificant changes between 1.20 and 1.20.1

[jagged monolith]

... If you change your api-version setting in the plugin.yml to 1.20 without the ' ' You will get an error.

[astral scroll]

yep https://paste.md-5.net/huwateweje.rb

[ancient plank]

All my homies drop 0's

[strange rain]

I give up i am deleting spigot over having to recompile

[kind hatch]

However, if you only use spigot API methods and not NMS, then yes, your plugin that you made will work on 1.20.

[strange rain]

This is rediculous

Do I dare not test the jar and just upload it 😈

[astral scroll]

Like, in winrar it is like it should be

But in server plugins folder its not

[kind hatch]

Then delete the config on your server and restart.

[strange rain]

Is there a packet that renders a player?

[astral scroll]

ive done that like 3 times but lemme try..

[noble lantern]

i would assume he did that after every restart to test (i hope)

also 1src

the file exists check for saveResource is redundant

just call saveResource and pass false for second argument

False = wont override if exists

[astral scroll]

k

But btw, why isnt it working

[noble lantern]

my guess

somehow the file is being created

before saveResource is called

not sure how though / where you would be doing that

try putting the saveResource for your config file in the first line in your onEnable

If it works there its likely something to do with you extending YamlConfiguration (considering your solely letting this class manipulate its file, and not using some seperate manager class on top of this one)

[astral scroll]

probably this?

?

[noble lantern]

nah the createFile() method (whatever its called) needs to be called before the files actually saved to disc

[astral scroll]

bc the only thing im doing in onEnable is this:

thats the code executing

nothing more

[noble lantern]

whats your super method for load() in reload? (ctrl + click)

and save too

[astral scroll]

thats YamlConfiguration.load

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

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

save

[noble lantern]

tbh I have no idea, seems like this definitely is overcomplicated for a yml config though which is probably why you're having a bunch of issues, haven't seen many people extend YamlConfiguration before tbh

Why not just have your bConfiguration be an interface with some basic config methods then have other config classes implement it and call the load methods in a ConfigManager type class that handles the file manipulations/load?

Example: https://github.com/CloudLiteMC/cloudlite-server-core/tree/main/CloudLiteCore/src/main/java/com/burchard36/cloudlite/config

Theres a bunch of others way to do it but, idk extending YamlConfiguration seems a little whack to me and seems like it would just lead to issues

[astral scroll]

probably

well

thanks

ill try the interface

other thing

to use gradle with vscode i gotta install gradle on my pc right?

[noble lantern]

your using vscode for java? menace

vscode should have a gradle plugin for those daring enough

[eternal oxide]

If using Spigot use Maven over gradle

everything about spigot is designed around maven as a build system

other forks use gradle

[astral scroll]

yeep

gotta learn how to use terminal and stuff before my last 2 student years

and im thinking about learning bash or zsh

but i have no idea how to install it on windows without making a mess

[astral scroll]

idk, i dont find a difference between them and well, i like gradle more, seems a little bit easier for me

especially avoid this:

[ancient plank]

my issue with WSL is that I can't easily change the install location off of my boot drive

[late sonnet]

the only way is install, backup and make WSL use the backup moved in another drive if remember

[ancient plank]

ye

I don't have the spare space to install ANYTHING onto my boot drive though

[late sonnet]

or make a symb directory where is sabed the .hdd

i dont test the last one

[late sonnet]

i have the same thing.. well now the C disk has more data and dont think in that unless need format windows

[thorny tinsel]

Im just gonna put myself out there and ask if anyone can assist/help/manifest me make a plugin or datapack, that will allow me to blacklist/block/delete biomes when generating a minecraft world

essentially i want to make a world that only has "minecraft:beach", "minecraft:wooded_badlands", "minecraft:desert", "minecraft:river", "minecraft:warm_ocean" biomes and nothing else

the only way that i "know" that this is possible is that i have seen a spigot thread showing off a deleted plugin, and then another post about a datapack, but when i go into the files the code is busted and does not work as intended per the instructions included, and i have been stumped for hours

[echo basalt]

Pretty sure I already talked about this before

[thorny tinsel]

really?

do you remember around what time?

sorry just got here

[echo basalt]

I remember someone asking me about a full ocean world with beaches

and looking at the nms, you could be funky with it

but biomes are somewhat hardcoded

[thorny tinsel]

hmmmm

[echo basalt]

So you'd just need to have a really high world "temperature"

[thorny tinsel]

i see

[echo basalt]

and some weird climate settings

I could honestly do more research into worldgen

but it's not my focus

[thorny tinsel]

what i assumed was that i could make all the other bioms smaller liek consolidating them to liek a chunk, or if posible one block, that way they still exist but are overtaken by the other bioms tha ti have asked to generate

or somehow combining the "large biomes" and "single biome" world gen options in the game itself

i dont think i fully understand how those options work and what changes they make to the game to forge those changes, but if there was a way to combine that, that would be helpful.

i would just use the single biome option, but i need trees in the biomes, so i would need the wooded badlands biome

[molten wadi]

a worldgen plugin maybbe

i owuldnt be sure cause I havent used any but you could look into some

[sweet sonnet]

Is there anyway I could get the axe speed depending on the axe better?
https://github.com/SnowzNZ/SimpleLumberjack/blob/main/src/main/java/me/snowznz/simplelumberjack/SimpleLumberjack.java

I feel like this is overcomplicated and there is an easier way. Still learning Java.

Also anything else that may be "wrong" or "done the wrong way", please let me know.

[chrome beacon]

That BukkitRunnable should be a call to the scheduler instead

[sweet sonnet]

getScheduler()?

[chrome beacon]

Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskLater(plugin, () -> { //Do stuff }, delay)

[sweet sonnet]

So get rid of

new BukkitRunnable() {
  @Override
  public void run() {
```?

[chrome beacon]

Yes

[sweet sonnet]

Cannot resolve method 'runTaskLater(SimpleLumberjack, <lambda expression>, ?, int)'
Whoops, forgot a comma 😅

Here is what I've changed it to. Is this correct?

@EventHandler
public void onBlockBreak(BlockBreakEvent event) {
    Block blockBroken = event.getBlock();
    Material axeType = event.getPlayer().getInventory().getItemInMainHand().getType();
    int breakSpeed = getBreakSpeed(axeType);
    if (isLogBlock(blockBroken.getType())) {
        List<Block> surroundingLogs = getSurroundingLogs(blockBroken.getLocation());

        getScheduler().runTaskLater(this, () -> {
            for (Block block : surroundingLogs) {
                BlockBreakEvent breakEvent = new BlockBreakEvent(block, event.getPlayer());
                getServer().getPluginManager().callEvent(breakEvent);

                if (!breakEvent.isCancelled()) {
                    block.breakNaturally();
                }
            }
        }, breakSpeed);


    }
}

[chrome beacon]

Did you static import Bukkit

Other than that you might want to store a list of locations instead of blocks and then check if it's still a log in the runnable

[sweet sonnet]

import static org.bukkit.Bukkit.getScheduler;

[static ingot]

That's a matter of preference tho

[sweet sonnet]

What I was going to do. Since it can be exploited to break any other block

[subtle folio]

no difference ^^

[sweet sonnet]

I feel the Runnable is easier to understand

but divides the code a bit too much, I'll stick with calling the scheduler

[chrome beacon]

BukkitRunnable should be used when extending

[static ingot]

But why tell them to change it because you find it easier? It's unrelated. But I digress, lol. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[sweet sonnet]

I am the one who was told to change it

[subtle folio]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/bukkitrunnable-or-bukkitscheduler.349393/

[static ingot]

gahh

[sweet sonnet]

Wrong person

[static ingot]

my bad indeed, but it still feels a little silly.

[sweet sonnet]

True

[desert tinsel]

Does a simple spigot plugin (without nms) work for all versions greater than the version from plugin.yml?

[sweet sonnet]

A guy in the Paper discord said I should use https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/Tag.html to replace isLogBlock. What do you guys think?

[subtle folio]

mostly should

[static ingot]

api-version 1.13 works on 1.20 if that's what you're asking

[chrome beacon]

You can do that on modern versions, yes

[desert tinsel]

Yes, thx

[sweet sonnet]

I plan to lower the API version so its compatible with later versions soon so I may just leave it how it is then

[quaint mantle]

when i use this: ```java
File file = new File(pluginsDirectory + "/vantagesource.info");
String toggles = advancedBan.readFile(file.getAbsolutePath());
System.out.println(toggles);
String[] toggles1 = toggles.split(" ");
System.out.println(toggles1 + "toggles 1");
for (String playerName : toggles1) {

[smoky anchor]

If you want to print the content of the array you have to do Arrays.toString(array)

[quaint mantle]

but will toggles1 be going into the for statement as it should be?

[opal carbon]

what are you asking here

[quaint mantle]

or do i need to change them into strings

[opal carbon]

if you want to print out the array

change the sout to what steve said

it wont break the for loop

[smoky anchor]

unless you somehow modify the array, it will still iterate over it

and you're not doing that with the Arrays.toString method

[quaint mantle]

AdvancedUnBanA advancedunBan = new AdvancedUnBanA();
        File file = new File(pluginsDirectory + "/vantagesource.info");
        String toggles = advancedBan.readFile(file.getAbsolutePath());
        System.out.println(toggles);
        String[] toggles1 = toggles.split(" ");
        System.out.println(toggles1 + "toggles 1");
        for (String playerName : toggles1) {
            if (!playerName.isEmpty()) {
            OfflinePlayer offlinePlayer = Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(playerName);
            if (offlinePlayer != null && offlinePlayer.isBanned()) {
                System.out.println(offlinePlayer);
                Bukkit.getBanList(BanList.Type.NAME).pardon(playerName);
            }

            // Whitelist the player
            OfflinePlayer whitelistedPlayer = Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(playerName);
            if (!whitelistedPlayer.isWhitelisted()) {
                System.out.println(offlinePlayer);
                Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(playerName).setWhitelisted(true);
            }}
        }}

[opal carbon]

just change the toggles1 in the sout to Arrays.toString(toggles1)

[quaint mantle]

that should fix it?

[smoky anchor]

if your problem is "the print says gibberish" then yes

[opal carbon]

yup

[opal carbon]

rn because arrays don't implement toString its printing out the type and hashcode

in this case saying its a array of strings

[quaint mantle]

ill get back to u, it's the fact that the names aren't passing through the unban system

[opal carbon]

thats a seperate issue then

[quaint mantle]

yeah i just thought it mightr have been that

[smoky anchor]

oh fun fact: don't use usernames, players can change those and would become "unbanned"
Unless your system does something different, too lazy to read your code rn

[quaint mantle]

yeah couldn't find a uuid function for it

[opal carbon]

getOfflinePlayer could be from uuid

[quaint mantle]

        File file = new File(filePath);
        StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();

        try (BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file))) {
            String line;
            while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
                stringBuilder.append(line);
                if (!line.equals("")) {
                    stringBuilder.append(System.lineSeparator());
                }
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            // Handle the IOException if needed
        } ```thats the file reader

[opal carbon]

then get the username from that

OfflinePlayer offlinePlayer = Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(uuidFromFile);
String playerName = offlinePlayer.getName()

[smoky anchor]

also:

if (playerName.isEmpty()) continue;

For more readable code

[opal carbon]

better way of making sure you dont unban some random guy

[quaint mantle]

but i don't want it empty?

[opal carbon]

exactly

continue means skip this iteration

so if its empty

[smoky anchor]

yes, if the name is empty, it will just continue

[quaint mantle]

oh k

[opal carbon]

skip that person

continue is a strange name for it

i understand the confusion there

[smoky anchor]

continue the iteration without executing the rest of the body
I mean I guess, but what else do you propose

[opal carbon]

hey im not saying i could so better

im just saying i understand why he mighta been confused

[opal carbon]

the problem is continue could just be interpreted as go on with the code which would be useless but still a understandable interpretation

[noble lantern]

are ItemStacks always capped at 127 or is it only if they are in a GUI?

[opal carbon]

wow why are you trying to do this

[quaint mantle]

but playerName is already set in the scope

[opal carbon]

im saying make the file use uuids

[quaint mantle]

yeah but the String playername

[opal carbon]

playername is defined by looping through a list of playernames

so if you changed it to a uuid system

if you named things properly

it shouldnt be

im saying make the file store uuid strings, convert the strings to a uuid, and use those instead

[pseudo hazel]

thats the way

[quaint mantle]

yeah but i don't understand the intergration into the already existing code.

[pseudo hazel]

because what if someone decided to change their name

[opal carbon]

my code snippet is just demonstrating just using the uuid and since you need the name for ban stuff you just grab the name from the offlinePlayer

this isnt a code bit to put in your code

[quaint mantle]

yeah k

[opal carbon]

to make it use uuids the code would need to be reworked a small bit

[opal carbon]

okay but legitimate question what the hell

[noble lantern]

update they can ignore me

[opal carbon]

ok but still why

like legitimately asking

[noble lantern]

removing more than 64 items from a players inventory without looping

[opal carbon]

ah

[smoky anchor]

wasn't that here like yesterday ?
Wasn't there a different function that took an itemstack and amount ?

[noble lantern]

similar, i think i asked something similar about checking if player had x amount of item in theyre inventory

[smoky anchor]

oh ye, that was it

[noble lantern]

just wasnt sure if you could do some cursed shit like PlayerInventory#removeItems(new ItemStack(Material.DIRT, 500));

[opal carbon]

for one plugin i made i dont know if i was doing it completely wrong or overcomplicating or something but i had to remove a specific amount of items from a player but the items had to have specific pdc and it was really something

[torn shuttle]

does this look enough like a tiny quarry?

[opal carbon]

id say so yeah

[pseudo hazel]

any stack size above 64 is kinda buggy

I only exceed stack amounts in menus for example to stack armor or tools

but not really to surpass the 64

[torn shuttle]

tried tweaking it not sure how else I could make this quarry-like

[jagged monolith]

Mine cart?

[torn shuttle]

hm

[opal carbon]

i mean hey its in the name basically

mine lol

[noble lantern]

like oil quarry?

[torn shuttle]

stone quarry

[torn shuttle]

how about that

[pseudo hazel]

why so hd

have some trust in your textures

[jagged monolith]

Yeah looks better.

[quaint mantle]

i changed it to a uuid system but it still wont unban or whitelist players in the list on start up, there's only 1 uuid in the list.

[sweet sonnet]

square wheels 🤩

[quaint mantle]

 String[] toggles1 = toggles.split(" ");

        for (String uuid : toggles1) {
            if (uuid.isEmpty()) continue;
            OfflinePlayer offlinePlayer = Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(uuid);
            String user = offlinePlayer.getName();
            if (offlinePlayer != null && offlinePlayer.isBanned()) {
                Bukkit.getBanList(BanList.Type.NAME).pardon(user);
            }

            // Whitelist the player
            OfflinePlayer whitelistedPlayer = Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(user);
            if (!whitelistedPlayer.isWhitelisted()) {
                Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(user).setWhitelisted(true);
            }}
        }

[sweet sonnet]

If I want my plugin to work on older versions, do I just set the API version to something like 1.13 and it should work for 1.13 and up?

[torn shuttle]

I'm what they call a master texturer

[jagged monolith]

Yeah, and change the target java version to something like 11. But can still compile it with the latest java.

[sweet sonnet]

Cheers

[smoky anchor]

nice code, are there any problems with it tho ?
Also, is there no way to ban a person based on UUID ?

[quaint mantle]

doesn't seem so, only name or ip

and yeah it's not passing through, no errors just wont unban or whitelist

what it's inputting is just a normal uuid, i cant figure out where it's going werong

@Override
    public void onEnable() {
        // Plugin startup logic
        System.out.println("Vantage v1 is on and ready.");
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new LagCheckA(), this);

                Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(user).setWhitelisted(true);
            }}
    }

[smoky anchor]

try to put a bunch of prints wherever you can then (don't hate me good devs)
like after the uuid, offlinePlayer, user, in the ifs..

[quaint mantle]

k

so with this:

String[] toggles1 = toggles.split(" ");
        System.out.println(Arrays.toString(toggles1));
        for (String uuid : toggles1) {
            if (uuid.isEmpty()) continue;
            OfflinePlayer offlinePlayer = Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(uuid);
            System.out.println(offlinePlayer);
            String user = offlinePlayer.getName();
            if (offlinePlayer != null && offlinePlayer.isBanned()) {
                Bukkit.getBanList(BanList.Type.NAME).pardon(user);
            }

            // Whitelist the player
            OfflinePlayer whitelistedPlayer = Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(user);
            if (!whitelistedPlayer.isWhitelisted()) {
                Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(user).setWhitelisted(true);
            }}

I got a return of the uuid in an arraw like it should be for the first one, and then when printing offlinePlayer

got CraftOfflinePlayer[UUID=46b1096f-1474-37c3-a9eb-e620d39b91de]

which idk how offlinePlayer works completely but if it's meant to contain the actual uuid then that's not it

[smoky anchor]

how is it "not it" ?

Looks like you're getting some offline player (that by nameMc does not exist? )

[hazy parrot]

Why are you not banning and unbaning by uuid, not name

[smoky anchor]

They said that the banlist can't do that, only IP and name

(which I do find weird)

[hazy parrot]

No, it can uuid too, read docs

Type.Name is misleading a bit

[quaint mantle]

well it doesn't matter cause it should be converting to user anyways

[subtle folio]

Player can change name since last log off

[quaint mantle]

it's running of a uuid, ill do some more checks on the user strings

[smoky anchor]

can you point us to the correct docs then ?
I didn't find anything related to uuid bans

[hazy parrot]

Yeah, it's not in docs, my bad. However, you can and should use stringified uuid

[smoky anchor]

would the bukkit ban thing work if you put uuid in it tho ?
Docs seem to say "player name" everywhere

[hazy parrot]

Because... It works, docs should be updated imo

Using name doesn't make sense

[smoky anchor]

oh well that is dumb and confusing if that is the case

[shy rock]

Is there a way to target diferent size slimes?

[smoky anchor]

define "target"

but slime.getSize() should exist

[shy rock]

onSpawnEntity

[agile anvil]

Check if entity is Slime, if it is cast it to Slime and use Slime#getSize

[shy rock]

alright

How many sizes are the lmao 1 2 3 ?

[smoky anchor]

wiki:

[smoky anchor]

try to google trivial questions first before asking here lol

[chrome beacon]

127 is massive

[smoky anchor]

and game crashing iirc

[chrome beacon]

Not when I last tried spawning it

[smoky anchor]

it at least provides a massive amount of lag due to collision checking and particles

[chrome beacon]

eh not really

though it has been a while I doubt that got much worse performance wise

[smoky anchor]

Dox yourself!
/j

[hollow grotto]

When using this to ban players,
Bukkit.getBanList(BanList.Type.NAME).addBan(player.getName(), reason, null, null);
This bans the player by name, and when the player change their name, it will ignore the ban, right?

[subtle folio]

it will value the ban if they change their name

[wet breach]

If you instead replace player name with UUID.toString it will work. The value expected is a string and thus doesnt necessarily have to be a name

[hollow grotto]

Yeah, saw it on previous messages in this channel. Thanks!

[wet breach]

The advantage of using uuid instead is avoiding your server looking up the uuid from mojang servers

If you dont have the uuid befpre hand go with player name as the server will ask mojang for the uuid

[quaint mantle]

can i spawn stucture with any method ?

i mean i wanna spawn desert pyramid with command

[chrome beacon]

Yeah you can

[compact haven]

is there not a World spawnStructure

I feel like I’ve seen that for some reason

[chrome beacon]

There should be a vanilla command for that no?

[smoky anchor]

There is /structure place command

[quaint mantle]

can u give me docs ?_

i can't found

[compact haven]

there is a vanilla command but I thought there was a method for it as well, ig not

[quaint mantle]

no i need do this with api

[smoky anchor]

you can call the command with spigot api

[compact haven]

but that’s not API then lmfao

[chrome beacon]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/structure/Structure.html#place(org.bukkit.Location,boolean,org.bukkit.block.structure.StructureRotation,org.bukkit.block.structure.Mirror,int,float,java.util.Random)

^^

Use that

[compact haven]

that’s the equivalent of LiteBans telling you to run console commands to ban people

[chrome beacon]

uhh the place method*

[compact haven]

like wtf

[quaint mantle]

if i place custom stucture can i do StuctureGrowEvent ?

[chrome beacon]

You can call that event yourself

[smoky anchor]

Isn't this related to structure block structures ?
Desert Pyramids are not on this system iirc

[quaint mantle]

wait what

[chrome beacon]

They should be in modern versions, no?

[quaint mantle]

can i call events in event ?

[chrome beacon]

?

[smoky anchor]

Some structures have not yet moved

[chrome beacon]

I thought they moved everything now since they added structure place command

Will have to double check that

Yeah pyramids got reworked in 1.20

so they probably got moved to structures

[smoky anchor]

The wiki says they only added a room, nothing about moving to the structure system so idk

[hollow grotto]

When a Date was set in an addBan method, it automatically unban's the player when the duration is up, right?

[subtle folio]

what’s the performance impact of using bstats like?

[jagged monolith]

I don't think there is an impact?

[chrome beacon]

bstats shouldn't run on the main thread

[chrome beacon]

Yes. Read the javadocs

[smoky anchor]

looked into a datapack - not a structure for whatever reason

[chrome beacon]

It has a structure json

[smoky anchor]

it doesn't have a structure nbt tho

the json is still just

while bastion has "type": "minecraft:jigsaw"

[chrome beacon]

Yeah looks like you're right

It might still be spawnable though

since the place command can spawn it

[smoky anchor]

yes, but probably not thru the Structure interface thingie

[chrome beacon]

I would expect that interface to build on the same system mojang uses

[smoky anchor]

well yes, but if the pyramid does not use that system...

[chrome beacon]

not that one

[hollow grotto]

Give me the link to the javadocs that it says it automatically lifts the ban 🙂

[chrome beacon]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/BanList.html#addBan(java.lang.String,java.lang.String,java.util.Date,java.lang.String)

[hollow grotto]

This is what I read, but saw articles creating a minute-loop checker to see if the time is up, then proceeds to unban the player... Regardless, I would assume that the "expires - date for the ban's expiration (unban), or null to imply forever" indicates that it automatically removes it.

[kind hatch]

Since it uses a Date as a parameter, it likely just does a timestamp check when the user tries to join and if it's past the expiration date, it will then remove them from the list and allow them in.

[wet breach]

Some people prefer to have their own ban system instead of using the built in one

[deft thistle]

Hey I'm practising basic "geometry" and want to prevent a player from entering a area.
I know I shouldn't be exposing the Model but it's just for testing purposes

Is litening to playermovevent to deny move bad for perfomance?

For example if you want to store bans in a db instead of the yml file server uses

[deft thistle]

its formatted

[hollow grotto]

Yeah, I see

[kind hatch]

Idc, It's a wall of text.

[deft thistle]

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

[chrome beacon]

Still checking every minute if a player is banned just to remove them is a bad idea

[wet breach]

Certainly, but i was more less answering the overall question.

[wet breach]

Its all good its formatted so its fine lol

[kind hatch]

It's only bad when you do a lot of stuff in a single event. If you're mainly doing number comparisons, you should be fine. It looks like you already have a guard clause too, so it looks like you're doing fine.

[deft thistle]

Generally speaking, does a plug-in load without extending JavaPlugin and overriding the OnEnable method?

[chrome beacon]

It should yes

[quaint mantle]

Can you just write public void main etc etc and it will start running code from there

[chrome beacon]

no

A plugin is a plugin not a standalone java application

[deft thistle]

no, spigot needs to know your main class and it can't be static.

[quaint mantle]

Ah

So do you have to have onEnable

[deft thistle]

you can have a static method and then call it tho

[quaint mantle]

Oh

[undone axle]

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

[deft thistle]

you don't HAVE to override the method, but you should do it.

[quaint mantle]

Yeah

[noble lantern]

theyre abstract so you have to dont you

[quaint mantle]

Alright

[tardy delta]

why override if you dont need it 🤔

[quaint mantle]

+1

[tardy delta]

and they arent absytract

[echo basalt]

consistency

[hazy parrot]

I also think you have to extend JavaPlugin

[quaint mantle]

So how do you declare your main class

Then

[deft thistle]

nvm JavaPlugin is abstract

[quaint mantle]

Just by extending javaplugin

[noble lantern]

because it wont fuckin override unless you plan to call the super method but onEnable is abstract

[quaint mantle]

?

[echo basalt]

half these mfs figuring things out

[hazy parrot]

plugin yml

[deft thistle]

you have to override the methods but you dont necessary have to put anything there

[quaint mantle]

Oh yeah

[echo basalt]

You extend the JavaPlugin class and link it in a plugin.yml file that's embedded in your jar

[quaint mantle]

I am never going to extend JavaPlugin ever again

[deft thistle]

but to spigot, your onEnable method is like your plugins starting poijnt

and the ondisable the ending point

[echo basalt]

why?

[deft thistle]

get it?

[tardy delta]

it isnt

[hazy parrot]

It's not

[echo basalt]

The plugin load logic just reads the jar's plugin.yml file

[tardy delta]

class is only abstract to prevent from instantiating it directly

[noble lantern]

in that case, still need override to override the og function (can call super in this case but iirc its just a empty method)

no im talking about the method itself being abstract

[tardy delta]

yes

[quaint mantle]

Does it need to extend javaplugin or no

[tardy delta]

yes

[hazy parrot]

You have to extend

[deft thistle]

Spigot starts the server, starts the worlds, looks for plugins on the plugin folder, creates the plugin objects and calls their onenable method.

[smoky anchor]

why do you hate javaplugin so much

[quaint mantle]

It terrorised my family

[hazy parrot]

Lol

[quaint mantle]

I am going to conduct some tests and make a plug-in run without it

[smoky anchor]

cool, but now really, why do you not want to extend it ?

[quaint mantle]

(Hopefully)

[noble lantern]

yah they just empty methods so you dont rly have to override/implement these methods

onLoad() is a neat thing most people forget is exist

[quaint mantle]

So how would you call something

If there’s no onEnable

Do you just write the function

[noble lantern]

onLoad or not at all

[quaint mantle]

In the main class

And it works

?

[hazy parrot]

You can't, main class have to be instance of JavaPlugin

[tardy delta]

iT cAnT rUn WiThOuT jAvApLuGiN

[noble lantern]

onEnable is the entry point or onLoad can be

[tardy delta]

or youll have to modify internal loading code

[quaint mantle]

Dammit why does it have to extend JavaPlugin

[noble lantern]

wtf do you have against this class lmao

[deft thistle]

because spigot is a fucking api and it's how the fucking api works

get it

[quaint mantle]

Fuck allat

[kind hatch]

If you don't extend JavaPlugin, you're plugin won't be recognized. You'll have to rely on another plugin to load your plugin in some other manner.

[tardy delta]

to provide a common interface and provide an entrypoint

[hazy parrot]

Because... It's calling methods from JavaPlugin on startup, you seem to not understand how inheritance work

[deft thistle]

Don't want to respect api rules create your own api then!
jk

[noble lantern]

i normally make a wrapper around javaplugin most the time

[quaint mantle]

I understand

I just don’t want to

[hazy parrot]

Why

Can you give one reason

[tardy delta]

he doesnt understand how it works

would be quite fun if i changed the message now
