[pseudo hazel]

ill keep checking then

[river oracle]

How do you get a Location cordinates from chunk cordinates
right now I'm using
x >> 4 and z >> 4 to get chunk cordinates
I used x << 4 and z << 4 to get world cordinates, but I semeed to get slightly incorrect results

In this case my chunk cordinates are correct
(73, -54)

But when bit shifting back I get a block in the chunk
(73, -55) how can I shift back or adjust for my inaccuracies

[plucky finch]

so basically, my friend out of a joke tries to make a plugin, that on chunk creation on every birch tree replaces 2nd block from bottom with birch sign with text. The way he does it now is, on chunk generation, it looks or all Birch Wood blocks, once it finds them it moves one block up and replaces block with sign. This is very unoptimised as it checks whole chunk with all blocks and only can be height limited. Can it be done any othey way that doesn't destoy server hardware on each chunk generation? (my friend is too stubborn to ask himself.)

[eternal oxide]

chunk to location will return the corner block

[quaint mantle]

PacketPlayOutWorldBorder

Anyone know what this is called in the latest version

[river oracle]

why is the corner block in the wrong chunk then?

[eternal oxide]

your math is wrong

[pseudo hazel]

yep turns out I fd someting up (like usual), the event is working now 😉

[river oracle]

do you not bit shift >> 4

[eternal oxide]

yes or multiply by 16

either works

[river oracle]

then it should wokr no?

[pseudo hazel]

yeah same thing

[eternal oxide]

yes it should work

[ivory sleet]

Use Screaming sandals :)

[eternal oxide]

chunk to location is multiply by 16, plus the block offset you want

[pseudo hazel]

probably off-by-one

[remote swallow]

that site is deprecated

use the new one

https://mappings.cephx.dev

[ivory sleet]

Wait it is

Oh ye

[quaint mantle]

I did

[pseudo hazel]

i.e. you are flooring or discarding the decimal result/bits

[quaint mantle]

I actually use it alot

[ivory sleet]

Listen to epic

[quaint mantle]

But it changes names and sometims I cant find it

[river oracle]

        domainRegistry.getAll().forEach((DomainInfo info) -> {
            final LightChunk corner1 = info.flagChunks().getCorner1();
            final int x = corner1.getX() << 4;
            final int z = corner1.getZ() << 4;
            getLogger().info("Zone Name: " + info.name());
            getLogger().info("Check Cords: (%d, %d)".formatted(x, z));
        });
``` This gets me the exact corner block in the chunk, but when I go in game to check its in the next chunk over

[ivory sleet]

Yeah true, u can always track it by packet id

[quaint mantle]

Yeah I got it bookmarked

[ivory sleet]

I mean like, the packet id

Cuz it stays the same regardless of name refactorizations

[pseudo hazel]

I would just add 1 to the z xD

[eternal oxide]

then your check in game is wrong

chunks index on zero

[primal ermine]

Can i just use .append .event .append .event, or somehow i should need to stop hover event before appending next text?

[river oracle]

guh tryna post screenshots of ingame coords, but my discord is being dumb

[eternal oxide]

my guess you are storing the initial chunk wrong

[river oracle]

but the inital chunk cords check out as working

I've confirmed that in previous tests

if I was storing chunks wrong wouldn't that be off too?

[eternal oxide]

<<4 >> 4 can;t give you an incorrect result, so you are either storing the wrong value or checkign the wrong value

[river oracle]

does it matter what corner of the chunk you check the cordinate on?

e.g. I set my zone on this corner of the chunk

[eternal oxide]

why not just get teh chunk coords from teh chunk not the location?

no math to do to get teh ints

and you guarantee you have the correct chunk

[autumn cave]

But why is it not in ProtocolLib?

Is there a ProtocolLib discord by any chance?

[river oracle]

true, I believe there was somewhere that didn't work, but no point and not going back and seeing if I can refactor

[eternal oxide]

when you use the location are you using getX or getBlockX?

[tranquil prairie]

How do I fix this

[young knoll]

Use getFinalDamage instead of getDamage

[river oracle]

I use
weBoundingBox.getPos1().getX() >> 4, weBoundingBox.getPos1().getZ() >> 4

[eternal oxide]

your boundingbox is probably 1 pixel larger than your block

[river oracle]

lol I didn't realize WorldEdit had getBlock

smh foolish mistake

thank you

[kind hatch]

It does, you just have to pay attention to where you put the marker.

It's hard to tell cause of your small screenshot, but you need to put the character after your values.

Not just the inbetween sections.

Yea, you're missing the characters after each ColorAPI#process call.
You are appending the calls directly one after the other.

Add "\n" + at the end of each of those lines.

That's the only one that has it and you can see it in your screenshot.

Pay attention to what you are writing. ColorAPI#process() returns a string. You are concatenating strings.

When you concatenate strings, they get joined together.
If you want to move to the next line, you add the \n character.

So when you do ColorAPI.process(whatever) + ColorAPI.process(whatever else), you will end up with whateverwhatever else not
whatever
whatever else

[river oracle]

you were right looking at it closely its off by literally one pixel 🤣

[kind hatch]

You don't have to, you just have to add the character after the process. Which you do for the line you pointed out, but not on the ones you are getting confused about.

No it's not.

This is the only line that adds it.

All the ones above it don't have the newline string appended.

[remote swallow]

make the dashes strike through

the formatting

&m

also i have this —

—

longer than a dash

—————

might connect in game

[autumn cave]

How to do this in 1.20? CraftPlayer handle no longer has playerInteractManager:

((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().playerInteractManager.breakBlock(new BlockPosition(b.getBlockX(), b.getBlockY(), b.getBlockZ()));

[remote swallow]

what version was it last in

yes

[autumn cave]

1.16.5 for sure

[eternal oxide]

why not do this with the API?

[river oracle]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[remote swallow]

its gameMode in mojmaps

[autumn cave]

The API does not provide a block break function as far as I know, only Block::breakNaturally()

[eternal oxide]

breakNaturally is teh break

there is also Player#breakBlock

no point in using nms for that

[river oracle]

https://paste.md-5.net/bewedeqebu.php
https://paste.md-5.net/siriroreye.bash
https://paste.md-5.net/urezekijis.json

Any reason that its finding an Array??? I'm so genuinenly confused it says its finding it line 4
"armor": { but the { literally denotes the start of an object?

Can you not have nested objects named like that?

[autumn cave]

ooo

Wait, I think this is wrong. Is there a way to break a block (properly) without specifying a player breaking it?

[young knoll]

That would just be breakNaturally

[remote swallow]

set it to air

[autumn cave]

But this will drop the item

[young knoll]

But the NMS code you were using is exactly what Player.breakBlock does

[remote swallow]

set it to air then

[autumn cave]

But this is not properly (no animation + side effects)

[autumn cave]

ik

[river oracle]

might just cry... Never registered my type adapter

well this is one of those take a break or the PC is going out the window moments

its been 3 hours me stumped on this

[remote swallow]

is ur gf spigotchan

[river oracle]

no my gf is cuter than spigotchan will ever be

[remote swallow]

so you arent a spigot chan simp

[river oracle]

be quit about this

don't let the other spigotmc users know

[remote swallow]

break naturally and cancel block drop item event

[young knoll]

Won’t fire unless a player breaks it

[remote swallow]

oh

use the player break block and cancel it

[timid hedge]

Anyone?

[zenith gate]

Could i get another persons opinion towards my problem? #1123699678425399396 Thanks.. ( My responds may be a little slow, got really bad hotspot service rn ).

[young knoll]

You return false after sending the no permission message

[timid hedge]

Thanks

[quaint mantle]

I should learn Java better first

[ivory sleet]

By using static you’re not learning java better though

It’s one if not the worst obstacle for beginners

[carmine nacelle]

Anyone know how I can make the background of a text display transparent?

            List<WrappedDataValue> dataValues = List.of(
                    new WrappedDataValue(22, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.getChatComponentSerializer(), WrappedChatComponent.fromText(ChatColor.RED + "Test").getHandle()),
                    new WrappedDataValue(14, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Byte.class), (byte) 3),
                    new WrappedDataValue(26, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Byte.class), (byte) 40)
            );

None of the values ive tried work

[timid hedge]

How do i set so the priority is group testGroup4?
So if your group is testGroup1 it shows somethig in a menu and same with testGroup2 and so on
But if i have testGroup1 (the "baddest" group) and testGroup4 (the "best" group)
It shows the items for testGroup1, and how do i make it so if you have both it will shows it for the highest group?

    @Override
    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command command, String label, String[] args) {
        if (!(sender instanceof Player)) {
            sender.sendMessage("Only players can do this");
        }
        Player player = (Player) sender;
        if (!(isPlayerInGroup(player, "testGroup1") || isPlayerInGroup(player, "testGroup2") || isPlayerInGroup(player, "testGroup3") || isPlayerInGroup(player, "testGroup4"))) {
            sender.sendMessage("You dont have permission for this.");
        }else{
            if(player.getWorld().getName().equalsIgnoreCase("A")){
                new VagtshopA().open(player);
            } else if(player.getWorld().getName().equalsIgnoreCase("B")){
                new VagtshopB().open(player);
            } else if(player.getWorld().getName().equalsIgnoreCase("C")){
                new VagtshopC().open(player);
            }
        }

        return true;
    }
}

[ivory sleet]

Think there’s a special color u use, idr tho but should be

Let me check actualy

Just gonna open my recent project

[carmine nacelle]

alright

[ivory sleet]

displayEntity.setBackgroundColor(Color.fromARGB(0));

This is what I used

Which is black I think?

[carmine nacelle]

how could I do that with my packets though..?

since my entity is just a packet

[ivory sleet]

What are those data values representing if I may ask?

I haven’t looked at nms for display entities at all so my bad

[carmine nacelle]

im still trying to figure that out myself

[ivory sleet]

I could help you in 10 min prob, at my pc then, else someone else might be able to give u a hint

[queen niche]

how do I make a chicken fly the direction the player is looking at?

I currently use this:

        // set the chickens velocity

        int m = 10;

        Vector v = new Vector();
        v.setX(L.getDirection().getX() * m);
        v.setY(L.getDirection().getY() * m);
        v.setZ(L.getDirection().getZ() * m);

        C.setVelocity(v);

C = Chicken
L = Player's location

however it does not fly away yet. What am I missing?

[high pewter]

What's the easiest method to check if BlockDropItemEvent actually had a chance of dropping an item (other than just the contents of an inventory)? For some reason I thought it didn't get called if the player used the wrong tool, but it still does and I also need to check for the event being cancelled or if the player is in creative. But then, even if you're in creative, multi-block structures such as torches will still be dropped, just not the original block broken. I was thinking I could just check if event.getItems() is empty, but that doesn't account for breaking containers such as dispensers with items in it using your fist (where the items are still dropped but not the dispenser itself) and would also have a random outcome if you harvested crops. I'm just hoping there's something that checks all this for me.

[twin venture]

hi , i started to work on redis and i have few questions if any one could elaborate :

redis.clients.jedis.exceptions.JedisConnectionException: Failed to create socket.

what can cause this ?

the ip / port / password is correct i doubled checked them ..

iam working on a communcation system for my network :

• send a player bettwen servers .
• get number of players

using redis ..

[carmine nacelle]

👀

[young knoll]

He ded

[chrome beacon]

1 am

He seems to be listening to Spotify though

[echo saddle]

How can I get the exp drop amount for an entity that is not killed

[echo basalt]

Let's refactor this as chicken.setVelocity(location.getDirection().multiply(10))

Now for this to work, your chicken needs to have AI (setAI(false) breaks things)

[twin venture]

....

[echo basalt]

The failed to create socket issue happens because your ip/port is incorrect, nothing else

password is a different thing

For the communication system, I'd suggest you make some packet system that runs on top of redis. Just sending around strings saying "CONNECT IMILLUSION LOBBY" is not fun

[carmine nacelle]

@echo basalt any idea how to make the background transparent on a text display

[rough drift]

check the wiki

it says it

default_background: 0b, background: 0 this is the NBT for it

[carmine nacelle]

https://i.imgur.com/KHcwNaK.png

[rough drift]

0x02 should be 1 iirc

and background color should be 0

actually

don't touch 0x02

[wet breach]

So the entire bitmask should be 0 which is the default lol

[rough drift]

no

background color

0x04 is zero by default

but Background Color is 0x400000000

[wet breach]

Ah i see, yeah if you wanted to change the background color you need to set that bitmask to 1

[rough drift]

no

0x04 is it will use default if Background Color is 0

you need to set both to zero to disable it

[wet breach]

In order for 24 to take effect you have to tell it to not use default

[rough drift]

yeah

0 is false, and it's called "Use"

Frost it's a boolean

[wet breach]

I am pretty sure it might be backwards in this case from a day or twos testing

[rough drift]

Used it myself

it works like I am telling you

Use background color should be 0b for false

Background color should be 0 for transparent black

[wet breach]

In that case it seems that bitmask is useless to even have set. Wonder why mojang even included it will have to at some point look at mojangs code which i havent really done yet

[carmine nacelle]

So..
new WrappedDataValue(26, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Byte.class), (byte) 0b)

0b doesnt work here

must contain at least one binary digit

unless im missing something

[wet breach]

Should be 0 after 0b since 0b means its a binary

0b00

Alternatively

Just stick an int there

[carmine nacelle]

I guess im confused on how to set values on "sub" things

like, how to set a value for a bitmask

[wet breach]

Since you are casting to byte anyways

You could just use 0

[wet breach]

A bitmask just refers to bits in a byte

There is 4 bits in a byte

[echo basalt]

8

[wet breach]

Yeah that stupid phone

[echo basalt]

4 bytes in an int

4 bits = nibble
8 bites = byte
2 bytes = 16 bits = short
4 bytes = 32 bits = int
8 bytes = 64 bits = long

[carmine nacelle]

https://i.imgur.com/OMFNgGF.png but for example, how do I say to set 0x08 to 0, for index 26?

[wet breach]

Since that is at the end

[echo basalt]

uhh

[wet breach]

00000001

[echo basalt]

that alignment bit is icky

[carmine nacelle]

just trying to figure out how to reference everything in code

[wet breach]

When you figured out the binary value you can turn that binary into decimal or integer

And use that int to pass in

[carmine nacelle]

                    new WrappedDataValue(24, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Byte.class), (byte) 0),
                    new WrappedDataValue(26, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Byte.class), (byte) 0)

Did i somehow not do it right..?

Oh wait..

[wet breach]

Idk what color 0 is

If that even registers

[echo basalt]

damn I gotta take the time to clean my keyboard

my tab key been hella sticky lately, just shined a flashlight at it and it's crusty

[carmine nacelle]

https://i.imgur.com/VkYtFqQ.jpeg

AYYYYEEE LETS GOO

[wet breach]

There you go

[carmine nacelle]

new WrappedDataValue(24, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Integer.class), 0),

[echo basalt]

only took forever and pinging me 25 times

[carmine nacelle]

had to change it to Integer.class instead of Byte.class

[wet breach]

You will get the hang of it. Just dont let bitmasks scare you

[carmine nacelle]

it was like... 3 ok..

I still dont understand why it works

[echo basalt]

ngl I barely looked at your code

24's field is varint

varint is just a specially encoded int

[wet breach]

Code end automatically transforms 0 to byte

[echo basalt]

passing byte wouldn't ever work

[wet breach]

But 0 is an int not a byte

0b00 is a byte

My bad binary

0x00 is a byte representation way

[carmine nacelle]

https://i.imgur.com/j1OyaSd.png

so is it literally just this?

[wet breach]

0x04 refers to where in the bitmask that is

[carmine nacelle]

new WrappedDataValue(26, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Byte.class), (byte) 0)

So this is the same as

new WrappedDataValue(26, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Byte.class), 0x04)

[echo basalt]

0x04 is not 0

[wet breach]

So it is saying that option is the 4th bit

Or starts at the 4th bit

[echo basalt]

For context let's take a look at what hex converted to binary is

[carmine nacelle]

https://i.imgur.com/Bt7gmSd.png Real question is... why is there not a 0x03? and why does it jump from 0x04 to 0x08?

[echo basalt]

00000001 -> 0x1
00000010 -> 0x2
00000100 -> 0x4
00001000 -> 0x8
00010000 -> 0x10
00100000 -> 0x20
01000000 -> 0x40
10000000 -> 0x80

[wet breach]

Because a bit requires two values to represent it. So 00 is one bit

[echo basalt]

This is the basics of a bitmask

[carmine nacelle]

oh shit

my binary is coming back slightly

[echo basalt]

A bitmask is just a byte representing up to 8 booleans

[carmine nacelle]

https://i.imgur.com/j6wgNZg.png

my beautiful drawing

[echo basalt]

And those booleans just correspond to if the bit is a 1 or a 0

[carmine nacelle]

the last is supposed to be 16 not 10

lmao

[echo basalt]

So we can say "one is false, two is true" by just saying

00000010

AKA 0x2

[wet breach]

All a bitmask allows is using the bits in a byte instead of using an entire byte to mean 1 thing. Since a byte can be rather large. You dont need a byte for a boolean for example

So why waste that bytes space

[carmine nacelle]

So does X just replace everything before the 1..?

[echo basalt]

We can say "one is true, two is true" by saying
00000011
AKA 0x1 | 0x2

[carmine nacelle]

like :: in ipv6

[echo basalt]

0xwhatever just represents hex

[wet breach]

0x just refers which notation you are representing it in

[echo basalt]

0bwhatever just represents binary

[carmine nacelle]

ok so...

new WrappedDataValue(26, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Byte.class), (byte) 0)

(byte) 0, how does this reference 0x04 if its entirely different?

and 0 isnt 0x04

[echo basalt]

your the value indexed 26 is a bitmask

0 is all set to false

[carmine nacelle]

I thought it was the index..?

[echo basalt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ew2QnDeTCCE

[wet breach]

Because this infers all options should be 0

[carmine nacelle]

So this is setting ALL options in 26 to 0

[wet breach]

So regardless how many bits you want everything to be 0

Because 0 as a byte is just 00000000

[carmine nacelle]

right

[wet breach]

If we split it into bits of 0

Its still all 0

Now conversely if we pass an int of 1

It would set the last bitnask

[cold pawn]

Hey does anyone know of a good way I can position slime entities on the head, body and feet of an npc lying down? Im using slime entities as a artificial bounding box, since when an npc is in a sleeping pose, there bounding box is to small and only at the feet. I wanna know how I can position the slime on top of the npc perfectly (or at least close to it), even if the npc turns diagonally at times.

[wet breach]

Because binary of 1 is 00000001

[carmine nacelle]

right, and 2 is 00000010

I get that part at least

[wet breach]

Right, so this how you use ints to set the bitmask

[carmine nacelle]

this video confused me even more 😅

[wet breach]

Now java allows you to represent numbers in different notations too

[echo basalt]

Maybe a practical demo would help?

[carmine nacelle]

new WrappedDataValue(26, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Byte.class), (byte) 0)

So this is setting ALL of these to 0, right? https://i.imgur.com/TviRt98.png

shadow to 0, see through to 0..

[wet breach]

Yes, but you need to use integer class

Otherwise byte representation to pass is actually 0x00000000

[carmine nacelle]

For what purpose?

hmm..

[wet breach]

To force the programming to convert it properly

[carmine nacelle]

but since im casting it to a byte, it converts the 0 to 0x00000000

[echo basalt]

Frosty you got this I got more to do than teaching bitmasks 😛

Use your military networking experience

[wet breach]

It should but as you noticed when you tried with other ints earlier it didnt quite do that

[carmine nacelle]

any clarification on this..? this is driving me mad

[echo basalt]

ugh

Look at your byte in its binary form

[wet breach]

I recommend just playing with it and convert it to different representations to get the idea

[carmine nacelle]

yes (byte) 0 is the same as 0x00000000

[echo basalt]

byte 0, in binary, is 0b 00000000, so all the bits are turned off, which means all values are false

[carmine nacelle]

I get that part

[echo basalt]

Let's say you only want the first value as true

You'd set.. 0x1 which in binary is 0b 00000001

[wet breach]

Oh right lsb and msb

[carmine nacelle]

So the first value would be "has shadow"

[echo basalt]

Correct

Let's say you want the second value to be true
You'd set... 0x2 which in binary is 0b 00000010

[wet breach]

So uh something we didnt cover minecraft uses LSB

[echo basalt]

So it's the second bit starting from the right

[carmine nacelle]

And if I wanted the "is see through" and "use default background color" to 0..

but not the first

00000110

right?

[wet breach]

Least significant bit first which is all the way at the right

[echo basalt]

Correct

[eternal oxide]

0x06

[wet breach]

Seems they are understanding now

[carmine nacelle]

Well..

now im confused cause 0x06, wouldnt that mean all 3 ending digits are on?

[echo basalt]

Let's talk about this

00000001 -> 0x1
00000010 -> 0x2
00000100 -> 0x4
00001000 -> 0x8
00010000 -> 0x10
00100000 -> 0x20
01000000 -> 0x40
10000000 -> 0x80

[eternal oxide]

no

its 4 + 2

if the last digit is set it would be an odd number

[echo basalt]

add the numbers of the bits that are on in your bitmask

[carmine nacelle]

wait seriously? so if I wanted every other one
Has Shadow, Use default background color... it would be 0x00000101... so 0x5..?

[echo basalt]

So if you have essentially "110", right -> left it'd be (0 * 1) + (1 * 2) + (1 * 4) which results in 2 + 4 which is 6

[echo basalt]

Exactly

[carmine nacelle]

ahhhh...

[echo basalt]

The idea of a bitmask is that it's just a number whose binary representation is seen as a list of booleans

[wet breach]

This is the moment the light bulb finally turned on for them and they can now see

[carmine nacelle]

so I need to set all my values at once?

Like, if initially I want to set "has shadow" and "use default background color", I have to do 0x05

[echo basalt]

I went through this myself so I try my best to give different perspectives

[echo basalt]

Yes

[carmine nacelle]

but say later on, I want to only enable the "has shadow"

I need to re-set the entire bit

[echo basalt]

Yes

[wet breach]

Yes

[carmine nacelle]

i see..

[echo basalt]

Now, notice this funky thing

[echo basalt]

To get the number which is equivalent to your position (basically this list)

[carmine nacelle]

wait dont ruin it

i finally understand

😭

[eternal oxide]

wait until he starts throwing & and | at you 🙂

[echo basalt]

It's pow(2, index) where index starts at 0 (I'll refer this as 2 ^ exponent)

So
2 ^ 0 = 1 (0b 00000001)
2 ^ 1 = 2 (0b 00000010)
2 ^ 2 = 4 (0b 00000100)
2 ^ 3 = 8 (0b 00001000)
...

But we don't use pow when it comes to bits, we just do bitshifting :)

[wet breach]

Lol

[wet breach]

I should point them to my console colors app to show bitshifting xD

[echo basalt]

Or just use the windows calculator in programmer mode

[wet breach]

But i dont think they are ready for that yet

[echo basalt]

Bit shifting is basically... shifting bits

[wet breach]

Basically? It literally is lol

[echo basalt]

So

0b 00011100

<< 1 (left shift one) is 0b 00111000

1 (right shift one) is 0b 00001110

[echo basalt]

ehh pretty much

except when they go out of bounds it's just gone

[wet breach]

Its probably one of the few things in programming its name is quite literal

[echo basalt]

yeah

Throwback to when I was messing with collisions and nms had this mess

But back to bitmasking

You can set your numbers individually by doing

(to set to true)
bitmask |= number

(to set to false)
bitmask &= ~number

Like I did here

This is probably the easiest example I got for bitmasks used in minecraft

[eternal oxide]

0x01 | 0x02 | 0x04 == 0x07

[echo basalt]

ye

[eternal oxide]

easy to read bit masking

[echo basalt]

0x07 | 0x04 = 0x07 because the bit is already set :p

vivian probably left the convo 5 mins ago and we're just showing off

[eternal oxide]

he's sat in teh corner dribbling

[echo basalt]

it's not an opinion my dude

[zenith gate]

You guys got mad Skillz

[orchid gazelle]

Yoo guyd

[carmine nacelle]

So, if I wanted to change this to being a green background instead.. how would I get the integer for a specific green color? I know how to get the hex through just an html color picker new WrappedDataValue(24, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Integer.class), 0),

[echo basalt]

Just convert that hex to base 10

[glossy mantle]

How do i create a 1.8.9 mod? All tutorials fail for me

[echo basalt]

pretty sure you can pass 0xAB12EF

This is for spigot, but you can always just read the docs.

[echo basalt]

it's lit

[zenith gate]

My brain could never comprehend doing any of that.

[glossy mantle]

Oh i thought i was in the forge server mb

[echo basalt]

ehh

[zenith gate]

all good.

[echo basalt]

After enough time you'll eventually need this

[zenith gate]

I mean idk. rn im just making a simple rpg plugin type thing. Im stuck on set bonuses for armor. I doubt i will lol.

[echo basalt]

Some of us have been doing this for years or decades

[carmine nacelle]

new WrappedDataValue(24, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Integer.class),  0x40c42d),

https://i.imgur.com/mbcPD6Y.png just replace the # with 0x?

[echo basalt]

I've been doing programming for 12ish years, plugins for the past 6

[zenith gate]

Wow. im not even 2 decades lmao.

[echo basalt]

It hasn't been until the past few years that I needed to learn this

Or even had the mental capacity to learn (I just turned 18 a couple months ago)

[zenith gate]

i turned 17 2 weeks ago lol

[echo basalt]

Ehh you're still on time

should I have another energy drink and make tnt tag in an hour

think my body's gonna cry for help if I do

[zenith gate]

I just lack the motivation to continue doing it. It's a lot of work and it keeps growing. Sometimes it just comes to much for me to work on my own.

[zenith gate]

you should

make it so when they explode they explode of villager sounds 🙂

[echo basalt]

Customer's the one doing the decisions, not me

but like.. I've already got the weirdest mix going on

Cause I had dinner, an energy drink

[zenith gate]

Perfect combo

[echo basalt]

and prescription pills

[zenith gate]

got the Gamer Fuel

[echo basalt]

nah

closest thing I got to g fuel is watermelon flavored protein powder

[zenith gate]

lmfao

[echo basalt]

that you mix with water

[zenith gate]

sounds gross

[echo basalt]

it literally tastes like watermelon juice

it's clear isolate

there are a few poses that minecraft has

crawling is just "flying with an elytra"

or

"sleeping in a bed"

depends in how you say it

it's usually just done with packets

I did it at work once by spawning a fake npc that was lying down, teleporting the player into the ground and setting them invisible

and spawning a client-sided barrier on their head so they couldn't jump

but that was for a zombies minigame

[zenith gate]

god damn what havent you done.

[echo basalt]

uhh

no clue honestly

only things I haven't made are uhh

• a scoreboard plugin
• a chat plugin
• fancy particle effects

probably

most likely for youtubers

[zenith gate]

I would kill for fancy particles.

[echo basalt]

did a "minecraft but I'm spider man" plugin once

I've made over 500 projects over the past 6 years it's hard for me to tell

[zenith gate]

youve been doing this since you were 12?

[echo basalt]

yeah

making money of it since I was like 13-14

[zenith gate]

I've been coding since I was 11, but didn't start minecraft until like a year or 2 ago.

[echo basalt]

.

[echo basalt]

been coding since I was 6

made bots for flash games

[zenith gate]

WHAT?

[echo basalt]

and shitty programs in C

[zenith gate]

How could you have gotten into it at 6?

[echo basalt]

I had no friends

and I played this game where it had fun minigames ran by bots

and I saw a tutorial on how to make my own

and made a bot that spawned a random maze that'd close in and whatever

then I revised the project a couple years back, added a points system, made a shop

[zenith gate]

damn my undiagnosed ADHD would have never allowed me to do that lmao

[echo basalt]

made friends with the game's devs

think I also made a bot that'd grab your movement and make a sort of 2d shooting game (it was a 2d sandbox game)

pressing space to shoot

[carmine nacelle]

So, if I change the value to the default, it changes the color to the default. I cant make it any other color except the default or invisible (0) https://i.imgur.com/TGZlVBL.png

[echo basalt]

And we'd have capture the flag, team deathmatch, free for all

I made a command system, a map system

it was fun

[zenith gate]

I wish i could have the motivation to do all that. and probably would like to go back and learn a better language to start off.

[echo basalt]

I started with C# and then moved to C and Java

[zenith gate]

I started with python, moved to Lua, an JS, I only use Java to code plugins I dont know like anything outside of that.

[echo basalt]

pass new Color(whatever).getRGB()

for example pure white would be new Color(255, 255, 255).getRGB()

[carmine nacelle]

https://i.imgur.com/kdA1WX7.png wtf lol

[echo basalt]

the other color

[zenith gate]

I only know a little bit of Lua, I didn't really use it that often. Only for a faster way of accessing data in a local database, really. I used it alongside Python, and I hate JS lol I never want to use it again.

[echo basalt]

not bukkit's

[carmine nacelle]

so, not the bukkit one

weird

https://i.imgur.com/ISTi1qW.jpeg lets gooo

[zenith gate]

Congrats!!

[carmine nacelle]

Is there a way to do transparency?

I dont see a getRGBA() or similar

[young knoll]

Bukkit's color has an asARGB() now

But idk about the one you are using

[echo basalt]

that's the alpha channel

[carmine nacelle]

Yeah but I dont see an option for using alpha with this guy

I dont get why its telling me it has private access

like why do I care just WORK

[zenith gate]

Is there a time delay that is needed when a player joins for editing their PDC? I need to get 3 booleans on login to see if they get these improvements or not. rn they just dont get them.

[echo basalt]

new Color(red, green, blue, alpha)

alpha is transparency where 255 is solid

and 0 is transparent

[carmine nacelle]

Using bukkit color or awt?

neither are working for me.

[echo basalt]

awt

you might need to bump your java version up but I honestly doubt it

[carmine nacelle]

For me, AWT doesnt let me use alpha

[carmine nacelle]

poggers

ily guys in the gayest possible way

lmao

TRANSPARENCY BAYBEEE

[rough drift]

.png be like

[summer scroll]

Hello, i'm trying to learn how to use mongodb, so i have a data saved on yml like this https://paste.md-5.net/ilorubolag.bash, how can I convert it into mongodb?

the data is about logging every actions that the player do on item with custom model data

[echo basalt]

So you need to create a "codec"

A codec is basically a serializer for a specific object

Or you can just... write it in the document class but I wouldn't advise

If you already have a data class that represents that object it'd be ideal

[summer scroll]

i have an object called Action which stores the type, date, and location

[echo basalt]

Alright so you can probably make an ActionCodec

which is just implementing the codec class and doing the stuff

A codec looks like this

I made a static instance because I can't bother actually doing DI for this

Then on your mongo class, you'd make a MongoCollection<Action> after registering the codec

and that's.. your collection

[summer scroll]

if you can see on the link that i put here

the action data is under the "counter" section

[echo basalt]

Yeah so

You make a data class for that and a codec

You can make multiple codecs and reference each other to split your code up

Like I do here

[summer scroll]

so i can have a codec that have another codec?

[echo basalt]

You can make a codec call another codec

It's basically just a serializer

[summer scroll]

so like i have multiple types of action, and every action has different data that needs to be saved

i have like inventory action too, so when player move around the item on inventory it will have a log

and it has information what inventory type that player is interacting in

[echo basalt]

Yeah so you'd make a codec for each type of action

basically you want to serialize this

Or you can just... save all of this data individually into a Document and skip the codecs entirely but that's not really advisable

[summer scroll]

i have classes like this, can i just implement the codec there?

is it possible to save multiple objects but with same uuid on mongo?

i can do something like that in sql as long as the uuid is not set to be unique

[echo basalt]

uhh

great question

[compact haven]

you can't have 2 entries with the same row id in sql

and the _id field acts as the row id in mongo

so I highly doubt it

[summer scroll]

if i was using sql, my plan was to create a table with column like
"player_uuid, item_uuid, item_material, item_custom_model_data, action_type, action_date, action_location.... etc"

[summer scroll]

yeah i was wondering if creating like that is possible

[lilac cobalt]

How can i outline a container for many types of data that can be set and used across multiple files in java? I want to make an outline for a custom item. Containing things like a name, a function that might be ran for specific cases, the type of event those functions will be ran on, ect. Is it a good idea to use classes for this?

[river oracle]

You should use classes for everything

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-modern-approach-to-inventory-guis.594005/

[vital sandal]

is it possible to make an item display with A lore when it real lore is B :l?

like client-side lore?

[ivory sleet]

Yes

[vital sandal]

any reference for that?

[ivory sleet]

Packet interception

Basically

[vital sandal]

I don't thing it is the packet :l

[compact haven]

that's exactly what you do lmfao

[vital sandal]

or if so it gonna be a lots of things to do

[compact haven]

you intercept the inventory packet and change the lore before it's sent to the client

[vital sandal]

;-; dam that gonna be painful to do so

[compact haven]

correct

[echo basalt]

and if you're on creative

that lore duplicates

unless you're smart

[compact haven]

creative is just bullshit, they still haven't fixed that nonsense yet?

[vital sandal]

I seen hypixel have some things like that so it is the same solution?

[compact haven]

I don't understand how you know Hypixel has this because you wouldn't know the item's real lore if they wanted to change it on your client

[river oracle]

Why did you delete that lmfao

[compact haven]

Unless you mean like you drop the item and they see something else, then yes

[river oracle]

Honestly bro you need to learn a bit of Java, before you code the plugin. The way you talk makes it seem like you don't really grasp oop concepts

[lilac cobalt]

Yeah totally, that's why i deleted

I think i'm lacking some pretty fundamental knowledge

[compact haven]

what you described is literally an interface, I guess?

[echo basalt]

I made something with client-sided lore in the past

https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/itemrarity.96809/

it's ass

don't recommend

[wet breach]

At least you are not in denial in regards to your skills

[river oracle]

?learnjava

[undone axle]

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

• https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-java
• https://www.sololearn.com/learning/1068
• https://www.learnjavaonline.org/
• https://programmingbydoing.com/
• https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/index.html

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

[river oracle]

These are all good links

Though for oop specific things you might wanna do your own research

[compact haven]

@peoples make an API to set an ItemStack's lore for a particular Player on their client, with the option of persistence using PDC perhaps?

would be sick and I'd love you for it

would be saved in my Spigot bookmark folder

[echo basalt]

can't bother

[river oracle]

Cb f u ck ed

[echo basalt]

client-sided lore is done with a couple packets

and is usually done by intercepting rather than actually sending new data on top

unless you want to be that guy sending a packet every tick

[compact haven]

ofc its intercepting

why u explaining

[echo basalt]

because I've done that before

[latent bone]

i don't like packets and i've never gotten round to learning about them, but should I?

[echo basalt]

if there's no better way to waste your time, sure

[latent bone]

ty

[young knoll]

Yeah the creative issue with client side lore is annoying

Granted it doesn’t matter if ur hypixel, they probably don’t use creative :p

[echo basalt]

or they can just afford to write those extra 2 checks

[wet breach]

I started with php before getting into programming. And like what illusion said some of us have been doing this for years. I have been using java since nearly its beginning and doing plugins since mc existed officially.

[young knoll]

Well yeah you can just strip it on the incoming packet

Or just don’t show it for people in creative

[echo basalt]

p much

[young knoll]

Stripping it can be kinda annoying since you need to know what lines you are stripping

[echo basalt]

it's usually just the last X lines you'd be adding anyways

if you only add a single line saying its rarity, then you only remove that 1 line if the item's source is the creative inv

[young knoll]

True

Until you add a variable amount of lines

[zenith gate]

God damn. See i love programming. I love the puzzles and collaboration between friends/colleges. It's something I want to do as a job. I plan on doing this for decades. I'm a self taught everything pretty much. I've watched tutorials and read docs. Never had or taken a class.

[vital sandal]

Hypixel have set armors

and armor bonus which showing on the amors is changed by who see it

like if you wear 2 pieces you see any thing 2 pieces bonus

[compact haven]

mm I see

then yes, it probably intercepts packets

[ivory sleet]

hypixel has a hybrid api, its totally different from what spigot api provides, so they may have api to do those things w/o low level packet interception

[carmine nacelle]

Is there a fancy way of adding "interactability" with the new TEXT DISPLAYs?

Other than just intercepting the interact packet

[young knoll]

I assume they are client side only

[carmine nacelle]

hmmm..

[young knoll]

In your case

[carmine nacelle]

so how could I make something happen when right clicking a text display..?

Before, I was using an armor stand..

[young knoll]

If you actually spawn then on the server you can raytrace

Or you could attach an interaction entity to it

[carmine nacelle]

yeahhh.. im doing per-client though..

interaction entity..?

[young knoll]

It’s an entity designed for detecting interactions

They can have a custom width and height

[carmine nacelle]

Can that be done on the client?

[young knoll]

Don’t see why not

It’s an entity

[carmine nacelle]

EntityType.Interaction, eh?

How could I attach that to another entity?

[young knoll]

Make it a passenger

[unborn sable]

Help making a system to mount any entity

[carmine nacelle]

Would that trigger an INTERACT_AT packet..?

yes, yes it does

nice

[brave lynx]

Help applying potion effects

[wintry zenith]

how can i get the block under a player?

[young knoll]

Get the players location and go one block down

You can either subtract one from the Y of the location

Or getBlock.getRelative

[wet breach]

Thats good. Just a warning doing this as a job is different and could ruin doing this as a hobby for you because you wont look at programming the same way. It is why i mainly do this as a hobby

[wintry zenith]

this is my code and that's what trying to do but its not functioning as i expected

public class pathspeed implements Listener {


    private int SPEED_BOOST = 2;

    Plugin plugin = DoofsToolkit.getPlugin(DoofsToolkit.class);

    @EventHandler
    public void onpathblock(PlayerMoveEvent e){

        Player player = e.getPlayer();
        Block block = player.getLocation().subtract(0, 1, 0).getBlock();

        if (block.getType() == "minecraft:stone") {
            player.setWalkSpeed(player.getWalkSpeed() + SPEED_BOOST);
        } else {
            return;
        }

    }


}

[young knoll]

That’s not how you compare block types

Block.getType returns a Material enum value

[wet breach]

Well wasnt too far off

[wintry zenith]

ooooh

[wet breach]

The change needed wont draistically change their code much so that is good

Just change that string to Material.STONE

Or to whatever material you are checking for

[wintry zenith]

if block.getType returns a Material then what checks for the block id?

[zenith gate]

What do you mean I’d see it differently? What changes ?

[young knoll]

You can use Material.getKey to get the namespaced key of a material

And then toString that

[wet breach]

When you do it as a job, you lose freedom in what you want to do and you are obligated to do whatever the employer is wanting you to do to include not optimizing or using non optimal solutions. When it is just a hobby you put whatever time you want into it as well as dont really answer to anyone

[zenith gate]

You know, now that you say it, that makes sense. I’ve never thought abt it that way, and the whole reason I got into this, was to create things I had to pay for and didn’t want to. That kind of freedom and creativity I don’t think I could give up.

[wet breach]

But when you do it as a job all the time, you may lose interest in doing it as a hobby since your job requires you to do that programming for like 8-12 hours a day and may not want to use that free time you get to work on hobby projects

Some people manage to do both but from my experience that isnt the majority of people lol

So just a warning if you do seek jobs in the programming industry

[zenith gate]

Yeah, that kind of sways what I’d want. Cause I would probably get tired of it.

[young knoll]

Maybe I should have thought of that before going to college for it

Welp

[wet breach]

Lol

[zenith gate]

But that student debt was calling for youuu

[young knoll]

Maybe I’ll get lucky and end up like Notch

Minus the dumb twitter posts

[zenith gate]

Nahhh you’d have to have them. 😂

[wet breach]

Or at minimum like minidigger who works for a bank and is on charge of their own team and works remotely with no real requirement to show up in person lol

[glad prawn]

bro if else fr

[carmine nacelle]

Would anyone know why my plugin is loading before Vault even though its in the depends?

My plugin needs Vault to do some things, but it loads after it

[young knoll]

Make sure your depends is properly formatted

[carmine nacelle]

depend: [ProtocolLib, Vault]

[young knoll]

And the exported jar has the updated plugin.yml

[wintry zenith]

this is my code now and im not getting any errors but it is still not working

@EventHandler
    public void onpathblock(PlayerMoveEvent e){

        Player player = e.getPlayer();
        Block block = player.getLocation().subtract(0, 1, 0).getBlock();

        if (block.getType() == Material.STONE) {
            player.setWalkSpeed(2);
            player.sendMessage("on" + block.getType());
        }

    }

[wet breach]

Should be subtract 1

On the location

You are getting 2 blocks below the player

[young knoll]

What

They are subtracting 1

[wintry zenith]

it was meant to be 1 but was testing 2

[young knoll]

Ah

Sneaky edit

[wintry zenith]

and it is still not working

[young knoll]

Is the event registered

[wet breach]

Check the event is registered and that the block below is indeed stone in the game

[wintry zenith]

omg i might be dumb let me cheak

no lol i feel kinna dumb lmao

[unborn sable]

Does .addPassenger let me put a player on top of any entity?

[wintry zenith]

to be fair its my first day so its not habbit yet ig lol

[carmine nacelle]

Is my depend not properly formatted or something..?

[wet breach]

There is a tag for load after if i recall

[carmine nacelle]

for some reason, it seems like vault loads, disables, then reloads?

[wet breach]

A trick is to format your code so that it doesnt depend on load order

[young knoll]

depend is the one for load after

[carmine nacelle]

Yeah im using depend..

I mean.. how? ```java
public void onEnable() {
if (!this.setupEconomy()) {
this.getServer().getPluginManager().disablePlugin(this);
return;
}

I gotta get a Vault instance onEnable

[wet breach]

Just check in the onenable for vault being loaded after like a minute or two or being enabled

[carmine nacelle]

What if someone tries to do something within that time that requires vault?

it'll error

[wet breach]

Not if you just dont allow it or delay it

[young knoll]

You can delay it by a tick and it should work fine

[carmine nacelle]

I delayed it by 5 seconds and it still didnt work

[young knoll]

Since scheduled tasks don’t start until after everything is enabled

[carmine nacelle]

hmmm..

yep this is super weird..

[wintry zenith]

what the hack player.setWalkSpeed(2); is not working but player.setHealth(0); is

[glad prawn]

value - The new speed, from -1 to 1.

[wintry zenith]

👍

[unborn sable]

What does -1 do? Stop them?

[wintry zenith]

its working thanks for the help!

[young knoll]

Apparently -1 is reverse

Didn’t know that was possible

[unborn sable]

So walking is inverted?

[young knoll]

I guess so

[fluid river]

You can use load: POSTWORLD

Tho if you depend on Vault, your plugin always loads after it

[wintry zenith]

it is just stoping me and making my FOV small lol

[unborn sable]

weird

[carmine nacelle]

it doesnt though.

ive tried depend, softdepend

[wintry zenith]

indeed

Vault

[fluid river]

Well thats the error

Vault requires editional economy plugin on top of it

Any

[carmine nacelle]

?

[fluid river]

XConomy, EssentialsEco

Otherwise it will always return false

[glad prawn]

tf

[fluid river]

On setupEconomy method

[carmine nacelle]

bro..

is it seriously erroring cause i dont have essentials on my test server

i swear to fking god

[unborn sable]

Why can I drop items even when cancelling PlayerDropItemEvent?

[fluid river]

Yeah

Vault for some reason only registering eco with any economy plugin

And perms with PEX or LP

[carmine nacelle]

jesus christ bro

i spent WAY too much time on that!!!

THANK YOU

[kind hatch]

It's one of the biggest misconceptions people have about Vault.
Vault is just an API. Nothing more, nothing less. It cannot be an economy plugin itself.

[fluid river]

Yeah

[young knoll]

It’s also not a perms plugin

[fluid river]

Its just using this RegisteredServiceProvider stuff

[young knoll]

It’s nice to have a unified api

[fluid river]

Which is part of bukkit iirc

[young knoll]

Even if it is somewhat dated with no async support

[fluid river]

Well, you can write your own economy plugin based on vault

In like 20 mins

[young knoll]

Yes but the vault api doesn’t support async

[fluid river]

To test your stuff

[young knoll]

Would be nice to have some future methods

[fluid river]

I don't know if this guy cares

[young knoll]

Fair

[kind hatch]

Did the Treasury devs ever gain enough popularity?

[fluid river]

What is Treasury

[kind hatch]

A Vault alternative.

[fluid river]

Never heard of it

So i guess in Russia it's unknown

Every server i worked on used Vault and random eco plugin

And LuckPerms ofc

[kind hatch]

Hmm, might be dead. It was gaining traction at one point as it all started as a Resource thread.
https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/treasury.99531/

[fluid river]

I guess we are the last guys who switched from PeX to LP

Im sure half of russian servers still use pex tho

[quiet ice]

They are doing a V2.0 of the api rn

[vocal cloud]

They claim that Vault is outdated but without evidence the claim really doesn't hold water

[quiet ice]

Vault really is outdated, there is no point arguing against that

[fluid river]

It just works TM

[young knoll]

^

[fluid river]

I love Skyrim community(except LoversLab)

[quiet ice]

Meh, UUID support is the main thing I am looking forward to

But it won't happen in vault - ever

[fluid river]

For years i thought that Vault isnt a real word

Several years ago i found this word in a random book

[vocal cloud]

The biggest issue with treasury would probably be their willingness to break things. Would mean that plugins would require a specific version. I guess you could shade it if you really wanted to

[fluid river]

Still everytime i read it i get Vault's icon from dev.bukkit in my head

[quiet ice]

That is the main concern yeah

[vocal cloud]

B I G decimals

[fluid river]

They are doing Biiig decimals here

[glad prawn]

Whats that plugin name

[fluid river]

Treasury?

[quaint mantle]

What packet gets sent when u right click a block

[wet breach]

Depends on the block as there could be multiple packets

[solemn compass]

how do i use hex color codes for text in 1.20 spigot?

i used this before

        Bukkit.getConsoleSender().sendMessage(net.md_5.bungee.api.ChatColor.of("#0033ff")+"["+net.md_5.bungee.api.ChatColor.of("#ffffff")+"FactionsUUIDLOTR"+net.md_5.bungee.api.ChatColor.of("#0033ff")+"] "+ChatColor.RESET+message);

but it doesnt work anymore in newer spigot

[buoyant viper]

https://javadoc.io/doc/net.md-5/bungeecord-chat/latest/index.html

[carmine mica]

I like how that link has "latest" in it, when it really isn't the "latest"

still using 1.16 bungeecord chat stuff

[solemn compass]

thats gone

i cant reference it in 1.20 spigot api

[buoyant viper]

we dont question the scuffed javadocs

[carmine mica]

run either mvn dependency:tree or gradlew dependencies and see if its listed

[solemn compass]

uh

i cant run that lol

[tacit drift]

🧌🧌

[solemn compass]

no

i literally put in the terminal

and error

[buoyant viper]

probably doesnt have maven or gradle installed :v

just using them thru IDE

[solemn compass]

well i opened a plugin i made for 1.17

and changed it to 1.20

and this broke the net.md_5 stuff

[smoky anchor]

what exactly did you change
and how
where

[solemn compass]

i just removed the old 1.17 spigot api jar from my external libs

and put in spigot-api-1.20.1-R0.1-20230626.214335-16.jar

[wintry zenith]

im trying to set a horses heath two double on spawn

this is my code so far

public class HorseBuff implements Listener {

    @EventHandler
    public void Spawn(EntitySpawnEvent e){


        if (e.getEntityType() == EntityType.HORSE){
            // set health * 2
        }

    }

does anyone know what i would use to do this?

[quaint mantle]

To set the health?

[smoky anchor]

e.getAttribute(GENERIC_MAX_HEALTH).setBase(...)
or something

[smoky anchor]

setup your workspace with maven and use that to manage dependencies
This might be your problem but idk

[wintry zenith]

max health yes

[wintry zenith]

getAttribute is not listed

[smoky anchor]

uuhh I believe only LivingEntity has attributes so you have to cast the entity
if you can use instanceof pattern matching as well

[quaint mantle]

There is any like e.getEntity().setHealt() or something like that?

[smoky anchor]

that I believe is deprecated

[quaint mantle]

Idk, never managed with that

[smoky anchor]

in LivingEntity

wish we had something like

?health

[quaint mantle]

How you use the docs

[smoky anchor]

you search...

[wintry zenith]

how would i implement this?

[pseudo hazel]

like this?

[wintry zenith]

getAttribute is not listed

like this is where im at and it wont let me get or set attributes

@EventHandler
    public void Spawn(EntityTameEvent e){


        if (e.getEntityType() == EntityType.HORSE){
            // set health * 2
            e.getA
        }

    }

[pseudo hazel]

they said to cast your entity to a living entity

since attributes only apply to living entities

[eternal night]

e is an event here... not an entity

[pseudo hazel]

well that might also help

actually getting the entity

poor naming

[wintry zenith]

sorry one sec...

now what would i put in to set the max health

@EventHandler
    public void Spawn(EntityTameEvent event){


        if (event.getEntityType() == EntityType.HORSE){
            // set health * 2
            
        }

    }

[pseudo hazel]

I would start by getting the entity...

[solemn compass]

ye that fixed it thanks

i used shaded jar instead

[sterile breach]

Hello, i am trying to create placeholders with placeholder api (not using any exetension, directly the plugin), so i create my project, ans depends, i add PlaceholderAPI, and then i also have to do something in pom.xml?

[wintry zenith]

like event.getEntity() or how do i call it becuse there is no setAttribute under getEntity or am i doing something wrong?

[pseudo hazel]

there is no setAttribute

you use getAttribute

I mean just look at the docs I guess

[quaint mantle]

Maybe you can try Entity entity = e.getEntity() but they said the method is for a LivingEntity soy instead of Entity type use Living
entity and you cast like they said

If I’m wrong correct me pls

[smoky anchor]

if (entity instanceof LivingEntity livingEntity) { livingEntity..... }

I am not giving more

?learnjava

[undone axle]

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

• https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-java
• https://www.sololearn.com/learning/1068
• https://www.learnjavaonline.org/
• https://programmingbydoing.com/
• https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/index.html

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

[wintry zenith]

i have been but i am new to java as a language and i am confuzed but thanks for your help up to this point i will try and work it out.

[smoky anchor]

in that case

[pseudo hazel]

well looking at docs should not be a java exclusive skill

and also mardroide and steve should look the docs as EntityTameEvent::getEntity returns a LivingEntity

[quaint mantle]

He want to set the healt when spawning

But yeah

[pseudo hazel]

yes

[smoky anchor]

they changed the event for some reason

[pseudo hazel]

well then he shouldnt use the tame event to begin with

oh i see

[smoky anchor]

maybe they changed their mind ?

[pseudo hazel]

its fine

[quaint mantle]

Better I don’t say anything because I will be wrong a 100%

[pseudo hazel]

well if you never say anything you will learn way slower

better to get corrected on something you said than not say anything at all

generally speaking ofc

[quaint mantle]

Yeah, but some people correcting sometimes are so annoying 😂 the just say ‘learn Java’ idk if I explained that well.

[wintry zenith]

thanks for you help guys i just dont think my brain was braining because im very sleep deprived :/ Have a good rest of your day/night.

[quiet ice]

Use the SHADED jar instead

[smoky anchor]

lmao first read the whole convo maybe ?

[quiet ice]

Well that was well below the original message, hence I assumed it went unnoticed

[smoky anchor]

fair

[shadow night]

How do I make the other players clients think that a certain player has no armor or items?

[quiet ice]

And eh, better be safe than sorry

[smoky anchor]

packets

[shadow night]

What packets

[quaint mantle]

There is anyway to like change the opacity of a player?

[smoky anchor]

uhhh
you only have one set opacity that you get with invisibility and some team settings

[vivid cave]

how to get the actual displaying name of an itemstack?
Example: if no name was set, it should answer what's displaying still "Netherite Chestplate"
Are those hard coded or can I actually retrieve it? (i can always make a custom function ofc)

.getDisplayName() doesn't do the job well, it just for custom names

its null if no name was set

[quaint mantle]

The idea is to do the vanish command but the people that are vanished see them with a 25% more or less of opacity

[shadow night]

I wonder if the same applies to players

[quaint mantle]

If you also have been vanish

[vivid cave]

idk tbh

[shadow night]

I know I need to use packets, but I have no idea what packets those are

[onyx fjord]

Debug them

Add a print line that sends the packet type for every packet

[shadow night]

There must be some packet sent to the other clients, so ig time for fun

[smoky anchor]

Set Equipment
Packet 0x55

[shadow night]

Hmm

[smoky anchor]

Tho I have not looked at the items
wiki.vg is great resource for this

[shadow night]

Last time I went to wiki.vg, firefox told me to fuck off

[smoky anchor]

hmm I just accessed it with firefox tho 🤔

[shadow night]

Lol

[smoky anchor]

yes

SpigotMC maintains the Spigot server. If you are using a fork of Spigot (such as Paper, Airplane, Purpur, or other derivative works), you should seek support in the appropriate Discord servers.

Use spigot and we'll help. You are not.

[quaint mantle]

You are a joke

[prisma sedge]

Woah now, no need to get all mad guys

what event is fired when a player picks up an item?

[eternal oxide]

PlayerPickupItemEvent

[shadow night]

thanks

huh

[prisma sedge]

Bouta read none of it

The message and explanation is clear and understandable. I don’t find a reason to say that this place is a joke. Without md_5 and spigot maybe a lot of thing wouldn’t exist in minecraft

Don’t read then

Not sure it is actually PlayerPickupItemEvent

[prisma sedge]

I mean it still works

[eternal oxide]

PLAYER

[prisma sedge]

You should use it anyways.

[glad prawn]

Why

[shadow night]

I don't use deprecated shit

it's deprecated for a reason

[glad prawn]

Yes

[eternal oxide]

PlayerPickupItemEvent is not deprecated

[prisma sedge]

Let me check

[eternal oxide]

You are not using Spigot

[shadow night]

this is the page you just sent

[shadow night]

this

[glad prawn]

Yes

[eternal oxide]

um, I'm probably reading wrong.

Yep you are 100% correct

EntityPickupItemEvent is its replacement

[shadow night]

just check if entity is instanceof player and do whatever needed

[prisma sedge]

It's not deprecated on paper

[quaint mantle]

Bruh

[shadow night]

this is spigot

not paper

I don't care about what is what on paper, I use spigot

[smoky anchor]

petition to add :nopaper: emote ?

[shadow night]

yes

[smoky anchor]

📜

[shadow night]

nopaper

[quaint mantle]

I’ll make a emote for that

[split lichen]

Does anyone know if there is a way to organize and structure the hierarchy of npc names on the tablist? I'm developing a minigame which utilizes fake player instances, and I'm assigning kits to them which are showcased on the tablist. The problem is, there should be a descending order of how the players are displayed, from the rarest kit to the most common one. I'm familiar with teams and how to manipulate players on the tablist, but I'm unsure what the best approach here would be considering I'm using packets to display npc info. Any help would be much appreciated.

[smoky anchor]

if you do, please send it to me so I can add it to my server and use it at least

[quaint mantle]

Sure

[tribal valve]

how i can ban player on ALL servers, cuz im making a spigot plugin for bungeecord server and if i ban player on 1 server, they can still join other servers, how i can fix that

[chrome beacon]

You'd simply put the npcs in teams

[split lichen]

You need to have a way to store all player punishments globally, for example in a mysql database, and access it to check when a player attempts to join/chat

[split lichen]

I understand, which is why I'm asking if there's a way to achieve the same effect when using packets

[chrome beacon]

Teams uses player names or uuid

You don't need to do anything special

Entering the npcs information in to the team api should work just fine

[eternal oxide]

if you want to order them in tab use unprintable chars in the team prefix

[split lichen]

Essentially yes, I'd like them to be displayed in the tablist with respect to the rarity of the kit they have, which would place them above some players and below others

I was researching if this could be done in a different way with packet manipulation, as I don't think adding them into teams worked properly

the method is #addEntry which takes in a string

[eternal oxide]

players you add by name, entities you add by UUID.toString()

[split lichen]

and this has to be a uuid for entities? such as randomUuid ?

[eternal oxide]

the entities UUID

[split lichen]

But I'm creating and sending a player info packet to display the npcs in the first place, there are no actual npc entities

[eternal oxide]

you are using players so you use their name

You have no Bukkit entity so you will have to send team meta packets yourself

[split lichen]

yes, that's the issue I'm having with

with team manipulation

I'll have to do some research into team meta packets, I don't think I've heard of that

[eternal oxide]

wiki.vg

[split lichen]

you've given me enough info to work with, thanks for the help, I'll do some more research into the problem

[onyx fjord]

if (!(entity instanceof Player player)) return;

😮

[shadow night]

if (entity instanceof Player player) {

}

[onyx fjord]

not needed nesting

[shadow night]

I remember, when coding discord bots there was some error that made returns crash sometimes because of some shitty library and since then I'm scared to return lol

[onyx fjord]

what

[quaint mantle]

Why a cross emoji

[onyx fjord]

look at my reply

that creates a layer of nesting

for no reason

[quaint mantle]

why wrap the whole thing?

[shadow night]

I wish I could do shift alt f or whatever it was in vscode to format my code

[onyx fjord]

if (!(entity instanceof Player player)) return;

[shadow night]

idk how to do that in ij

[onyx fjord]

this works exactly the same

[quaint mantle]

you can

[quaint mantle]
