[dull schooner]

yep thats actually true, but usualy this bit is enough to simple tasks

[fluid river]

well, but headers are not supposed to have impl

[hazy parrot]

that was joke

[fluid river]

i mean yeah you can do that ofc

but still

[dull schooner]

comparing c++ to java i actually prefer java, but that doesnt mean i like java

i think the verbose thing is important but it shouldn't be required

[fluid river]

well, comparing java to kotlin, it uses like completely different approach

[quaint mantle]

hi, my custom config files doesn't save the .addDefault(). I already made a save method

[fluid river]

and it's simplified to the point where it's easier to write, but harder to read/understand

when workin on a big project

[fluid river]

addDefault is part of FileConfiguration tho

[quaint mantle]

let me send the code

[dull schooner]

dont get me wrong, for big projects java is very good

but if you're thinking in a bunch of small tasks, is very annoying

[quaint mantle]

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

[fluid river]

what's the problem

[fluid river]

.

[quaint mantle]

the config doesn't save

Example I add default things and doesn't save

[dull schooner]

i think there's a saveConfig() method?

dont know for sure

[fluid river]

is that so hard to copypaste original config code from stash

and just change "config.yml" to your filename

[hazy parrot]

why are you using addDefault tho

[fluid river]

?stash

[undone axle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/

[hazy parrot]

i never found myself in need to use it

[quaint mantle]

to create parameters

[hazy parrot]

just add your config to resources and call JavaPlugin#saveResource

[quaint mantle]

// This is an example.
config = new CustomConfig("mongodb.yml");
config.getConfig().addDefault("mongo_uri", "Your connection uri");
config.saveCustomFile();

[tribal valve]

How to get the arrow sender, like if arrow damaged player, how i would get the entity that shoot the arrow

[fluid river]

public class CustomConfigManager {

    private File customConfigFile;
    private FileConfiguration customConfig;

    public CustomConfigManager() {
        var dataFolder = JavaPlugin.getProvidingPlugin(CustomConfig.class).getDataFolder();
        customConfigFile = new File (dataFolder, "customconfig.yml");
    }

    public void saveCustomConfig() {
        try {
            customConfig.save(customConfigFile);
        } catch (IOException ex) {}
    }

    public void reloadCustomConfig() {
        customConfig = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(customConfigFile);
        InputStream defConfigStream = getResource("customconfig.yml");
        if (defConfigStream == null) return;
        customConfig.setDefaults(YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(new InputStreamReader(defConfigStream, Charsets.UTF_8)));
    }

    public void saveDefaultCustomConfig() {
        if (!customConfigFile.exists()) saveResource("customconfig.yml", false);
    }

    public FileConfiguration getConfig() {
        if (customConfig == null) reloadCustomConfig();
        return customConfig;
    }
}```

copypaste to every plugin

this is 100% original spigot code

[remote swallow]

customconfig.ymn

[fluid river]

with custom word added everywhere

[quaint mantle]

but if yo uwant to create another config with other name?

[fluid river]

add more similar methods with configname instead of customconfig, or add parameters to methods

second approach will increase methods complexity but still

[fluid river]

thanks ❤️

[quaint mantle]

emm, but that is for a single file

[fluid river]

alr, adding 2 specially for you

public class CustomConfigManager {

    private File customConfigFile, localeFile;
    private FileConfiguration customConfig, locale;

    public CustomConfigManager() {
        var dataFolder = JavaPlugin.getProvidingPlugin(CustomConfig.class).getDataFolder();
        customConfigFile = new File (dataFolder, "customconfig.yml");
        localeFile = new File(dataFolder, "locale.yml");
        saveDefaultFiles();
    }

    public void saveCustomConfig() {
        try {
            customConfig.save(customConfigFile);
        } catch (IOException ex) {}
    }

    public void saveLocale() {
        try {
            locale.save(localeFile);
        } catch (IOException ex) {}
    }

    public void reloadCustomConfig() {
        customConfig = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(customConfigFile);
        InputStream defConfigStream = getResource("customconfig.yml");
        if (defConfigStream == null) return;
        customConfig.setDefaults(YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(new InputStreamReader(defConfigStream, Charsets.UTF_8)));
    }

    public void reloadLocale() {
        locale = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(localeFile);
        InputStream defConfigStream = getResource("locale.yml");
        if (defConfigStream == null) return;
        customConfig.setDefaults(YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(new InputStreamReader(defConfigStream, Charsets.UTF_8)));
    }

    public void saveDefaultFiles() {
        if (!customConfigFile.exists()) saveResource("customconfig.yml", false);
        if (!localeFile.exists()) saveResource("locale.yml", false);
    }

    public FileConfiguration getCustomConfig() {
        if (customConfig == null) reloadCustomConfig();
        return customConfig;
    }

    public FileConfiguration getLocale() {
        if (locale == null) reloadLocale();
        return locale;
    }
}```

[quaint mantle]

where xd

[fluid river]

done

now you have locale and customConfig

each file is treated individually

[quaint mantle]

but you need to create more methods each one you need

[fluid river]

except saveDefault

yeah, one more save, one more reload and one more get

cuz you don't want to save config if you changed locale

and only need to save locale

[earnest fiber]

does anyone know how PersistentDataContainer#set() is supposed to work with PersistentDataType.TAG_CONTAINER? Since PersistentDataContainer is an interface, I'm not sure what to instatiate to create a new container

[fluid river]

what are you trying to do

[quaint mantle]

thats not what im really doing, it the same but not adding more methods each file

[fluid river]

set() uses Key and Value

[fluid river]

ok cool one sec

[earnest fiber]

trying to use PDC to store a Location, but I want pitch and yaw, so I don't think an int array will work

and there doesn't seem to be an option for double array

[fluid river]

umm

you need to serialize your location

[eternal oxide]

write a custom type or use morePDC

[fluid river]

to string at least

[chrome beacon]

?morepdc

[undone axle]

You can create custom persistent data types on your own, or use one of the many libraries available which have implemented those which match your needs. Learn about more persistent data types here: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/more-persistent-data-types-collections-maps-and-arrays-for-pdc.520677/

[fluid river]

or use morepdc

^^

[eternal oxide]

sec I have a Location

if thats all you need

[fluid river]

you can serialize location to string like

[eternal oxide]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[earnest fiber]

oh yeah string would work as a base type. I was trying to figure out what to do since the custom ones need to reduce down to one of the original types

[fluid river]

"world;107.0;98.55;290.153;90.0;0.7"

and then use string.split(";");

and build location from the array

[earnest fiber]

should be simple enough. Thanks for the tip!

[fluid river]

but morepdc is better i'm sure

thanks alex

[eternal oxide]

Location PDC https://paste.md-5.net/janipagazi.java

[fluid river]

oh @quaint mantle you do one instance per file

Config factory

my bad

[quaint mantle]

i'm lost now xdddd

[earnest fiber]

oh yeah, MorePDC has a type for double arrays. It looks pretty lightweight, so I might just use that

[chrome beacon]

MorePDC can just save Locations directly

No need for double array

Locations are configuration serializable

[sterile breach]

Hello, I need advice

in my plugin i need database system,

At first I was just thinking of doing it this way:
when something needs to be changed -> sql query
but for perfs it's not terrible, what was suggested to me,

create a hashmap which the uid (key) and in value an instance of a class which contains the equivalent of the columns,

then at the start of the server I transfer the database into my hashmap, and all my modifications I make them inside this one, then every 5 minutes I save the hashmap in the database.

Is it a good idea ?

[fluid river]

on crash it dies

[tender shard]

i always wonder why so many people's servers randomly crash, it has never ever happened to me

is everyone running a 100 player server on a 512mb aternos server or what lol

[shadow night]

Lol

[fluid river]

but at least it's better than saving changed to SQL from your hashmap on server disable

[distant wave]

ive already asked here but it didnt work, how can i increase player swim speed?

[fluid river]

is that even possible lol

isn't it affected by walkSpeed

[distant wave]

its not

[fluid river]

sad

[distant wave]

ive tried a lot of stuff

[shadow night]

Dolphin effect? Does it work for more than 1 level tho?

[distant wave]

nope

tried that

also attributes

didnt work

[fluid river]

@quaint mantle

that's still 100% copy of default bukkit code, but for case when you create a file and it's not present in .jar(so it's a super custom config)

[sterile breach]

up

[smoky anchor]

if you really need it, one way would be to manually apply velocity
would be scuff as fuck and quite laggy for ppl with higher ping

[tender shard]

i'd just save the changes directly

[shadow night]

It would work very weird, but sounds like the only solution

[distant wave]

tried that

didnt work

[quaint mantle]

getReaource() ?

[distant wave]

or atleast i tried

[shadow night]

Well, sounds like you did something wrong then

[sterile breach]

so no image of the database in a hashmap? going directly through sql queries does not risk altering performance?

[fluid river]

removed, now there is no resource

[shadow night]

Or water is fucked

[smoky anchor]

how/what did you try that then ?
I am 100% sure that would work... in some way

[distant wave]

this the getSwimSpeed returns 1 and im fast as fck for some reason

[quaint mantle]

and on reload it has to be new YamlConfiguration

[fluid river]

what

[smoky anchor]

I assume you're triggering that every tick in which case I am not surprised

[fluid river]

no

why

[distant wave]

onPlayerMove

[fluid river]

for what reason it should be new

if YamlConfigurations methods are static

[quaint mantle]

look

[fluid river]

oh

remove ()

[smoky anchor]

yeah, exactly
every tick since the player moves when you give them velocity
So just.. give smaller vector

[fluid river]

It's a class name, by which you call a static

[quaint mantle]

im so blind, my bad

[distant wave]

what do you mean by that, like multiply it by smaller value or what

[fluid river]

are your configs present in the final jar or you just create them for random game event?

[smoky anchor]

yeah, that will make the player "swim" slower

[quaint mantle]

is a core plugin idk

[fluid river]

?

[distant wave]

but i want it faster

[quaint mantle]

like for a server core

[shadow night]

A server core?

[smoky anchor]

but you just complained about the player being too fast

[fluid river]

?

i asked if your files are present in the final plugin jar

[distant wave]

well yes, when i multiply it by 1 im very fast which doesnt make any sense

[fluid river]

when you build it, are they in resources folder

or not

[quaint mantle]

here a core is called a plugin (util) taht manages the base of teh server

[quaint mantle]

I have an error

[fluid river]

show it

[fluid river]

show your code

conf is null by default

you are using save for some reason

[quaint mantle]

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

[fluid river]

and i don't have createCustomConfig method in my code

[smoky anchor]

you multiply the direction by 1, direction is a unit vector
You might want to create your own vector from previous position and current position and multiply that one by the swim speed

[fluid river]

show code where you instantiate a new CustomConfig

[quaint mantle]

this for example?

[sick ermine]

Is a new player object created when logging out of the server?
should i use UUID for this?

[remote swallow]

yes

[fluid river]

and you didn't use what i gave you

[remote swallow]

a player instance only exists as long as the player is online

[shadow night]

What is an OfflinePlayer then?

[sick ermine]

When the player leaves the server, will that object be deleted from the list?

[remote swallow]

no

but trying to use it for anything wont work

[fluid river]

don't call save here

[shadow night]

You'll have an invalid player object, basically

[fluid river]

you need file.createNewFile() here

[echo basalt]

OO using states :)

I'd split the map logic into a separate class

[sick ermine]

yess 🙂

[fluid river]

you'd better always use uuids tho

[echo basalt]

Finally someone that gets it

[distant wave]

wdym by create your own vector from previous position and current position like subtract them?

[fluid river]

isn't like every developer on YT using STATE for minigame plugin

[smoky anchor]

I assume so
I am not the best with vector math lol
I mostly jsut guess

[echo basalt]

depends

usually it's a state enum

[fluid river]

and what's wrong with an enum

[quaint mantle]

now the file is created but not saved

[echo basalt]

At work I do something like that

[smoky anchor]

also, you would have to cap the length of the new vector to your swimspeed
otherwise it will increase over time if the multiplier is over 1

[distant wave]

well i did this but now im swmming super slow

[fluid river]

wdym

values are not in it?

[echo basalt]

Start by splitting your logic

[earnest fiber]

so I'm back again... MorePDC lists a "shadowJar" section along with the repository and dependency. I'm assuming this is meant to move the API into the package at build time, but I'm not sure how it works. Is it handled automatically when I run the jar task?

(this is referring to the build.grade file)

[rare rover]

Hmmm

[fluid river]

guy needs free shadow gradle lessons

[rare rover]

Exciting

[fluid river]

help him

[echo basalt]

Anyways a phase is just uhh

[fluid river]

a phase is just a synonim to state

ig

[echo basalt]

a kind of state where you can register listeners and tasks when it starts

[fluid river]

cool

[echo basalt]

and when the phase ends, things clean up and the phase is no longer active

[fluid river]

imagine having this all on cpp

💀

[echo basalt]

There's also the vanilla mechanics system that lets you disable certain vanilla features dynamically

[fluid river]

aren't you developing fucking base to every possible minigame

[echo basalt]

pretty much

[fluid river]

😉

[echo basalt]

I made TNT tag in like an hour

[quaint mantle]

How should I go about this? I removed our implementation line for sdk and just switched it to only the jvm kotlin plugin and its still included im pretty sure I need to include kotlin for it tow ork (they are all using the same kotlin plugin because we have our projects as modules and they all define kotlin in the master build.gradle.kts not induvidually)

java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving method 'void me.nopox.stuff.Serializers.useGsonBuilderThenRebuild(kotlin.jvm.functions.Function1)' the class loader 'Commands-1.0.jar' @5ea86494 of the current class, me/nopox/commands/Commands, and the class loader 'Stuff-Remapped-1.0.jar' @4def2336 for the method's defining class, me/nopox/stuff/serializers/Serializers, have different Class objects for the type kotlin/jvm/functions/Function1 used in the signature (me.nopox.commands.CommandsPlugin is in unnamed module of loader 'Commands-1.0.jar' @5ea86494, parent loader java.net.URLClassLoader @27fa135a; me.nopox.stuff..serializers.Serializers is in unnamed module of loader 'Stuff-Remapped-1.0.jar' @4def2336, parent loader java.net.URLClassLoader @27fa135a)

[earnest fiber]

nvm I found the docs for Shadow

[fluid river]

1. copypaste entire codebase
2. change name to MyAwesomeMinigame
3. change game logic a bit

4. done

[echo basalt]

You don't need to copypaste the entire codebase

You can just add it here

[fluid river]

not like i'm going to

[distant wave]

why cant i just multiply the velocity, why does it have to be so hard to make bruv

[fluid river]

what is going on there

get players direction(should be a unit vector)

[echo basalt]

Split your logic up

[fluid river]

if not then .normalize()

multiply by some value

and set to player's velocity

boom done

also velocity should work different in water

[echo basalt]

Location from = event.getFrom();
Location to = event.getTo();

Vector direction = to.getDirection();
Vector difference = from.clone().subtract(to);

[fluid river]

iirc

[echo basalt]

from - to = vector that pulls from -> to

[fluid river]

cuz water resistance is much higher

[fluid river]

to - from*

[echo basalt]

to - from = vector that pulls to -> from

it might seem a bit backwards

either that or I'm tripping

[fluid river]

you do end - start

[echo basalt]

https://bukkit.org/threads/tutorial-how-to-calculate-vectors.138849/

[fluid river]

to get the vector directing from start to end

[distant wave]

thats what i had before

[fluid river]

and what was wrong

[distant wave]

im very fast

like too fast

[fluid river]

umm, lower your value

[distant wave]

altough the multiplier is 1

[fluid river]

with your old code or current code

[distant wave]

this is what i understood you told me to do

[fluid river]

the one which is suggested to you by guys here

[fluid river]

yeah, smth like this

but multiplying by one is not changing anything

[quaint mantle]

How do i check if a player has any of these for permissions?
testPermission1, testPermission2, testPermission3 and testPermission4

[fluid river]

so are you too fast with this piece of code or with another

[distant wave]

yes

with this

[fluid river]

the thing is that the vector is normalized

[echo basalt]

for loop

[fluid river]

and has length of 1

and velocity(according to docs) saying that it's 1 block per tick or smth similar

so you need to multiply by value, which is smaller than 1

try .2 for example(should be 4 blocks per second) which is somewhere on move speed

[quaint mantle]

I dont really understand what you mean
Isnt there a symbole like & or something?

[distant wave]

ohh its changing

[echo basalt]

&& is AND
|| is OR

[quaint mantle]

BUt || dosent work

[distant wave]

why for loop just an if statement

[fluid river]

if (player.hasPermission(1) || ... )

[echo basalt]

If statement not scalable if you want to test for 20 permissions instead of just 4

[fluid river]

if there are 99 perms

you need a for loop

[echo basalt]

public boolean hasAny(Player player, String... permissions) {
  for(String permission : permissions) {
    if(player.hasPermission(permission)) {
      return true;
    }
  }

  return false;
}

Simple enough

[fluid river]

for (String perm : perms) {
    if (player.hasPermission(perm)) {
        doYourCode();
        return;
    }
}```

[echo basalt]

if(hasAny(player, "one", "two", "three"))

[fluid river]

or ^^^

[quaint mantle]

No i mean if i have like 8 permissions and i want to check if a player has any of these 8

[echo basalt]

make a list out of those 8

[fluid river]

copypaste immlussion's method

and use it

[echo basalt]

and do a for loop

[distant wave]

holy crap it works

tysm everyone

[fluid river]

if (!hasAny(player, "myplugin.fly", "myplugin.god", "vault.die")) return;```

[echo basalt]

joe.mama

[fluid river]

was easy lol

if you are doing this in moveevent, don't forget to check if player is in water

[quaint mantle]

I dont get it
So it this right

        Player player = (Player) sender;
        public boolean hasAny(String permissions) {
            for(String permission : testPermission1, testPermission2, testPermission3, testPermission4) {
                if(player.hasPermission(permission)) {
                    return true;
                }
            }

            return false;
        }

[distant wave]

                    this.getServer().getScheduler().runTask(this, () -> event.getInventory().setRepairCost(30));
                }

Am I missing something? Shouldn't this work?

[smoky anchor]

try explaining what it should do and what it is not doing

[rapid garden]

Combine enchanted items and get a resulting item past the default limit. Ex. Fortune III + Fortune III = Fortune IV

[unborn sable]

Can I set a spawn egg's NBT so it spawns for example a librarian villager?

[quaint mantle]

I dont get it..
Does it work for java 8?

2 of the 3 methods are deprecated

It does, it just happens that you don't know java

Is it possible to send debug info from the server to the client such that it will be written in client log files?
(Obviously you can just send chat messages, which are saved in log files, but ideally I don’t want to display anything on the screen, because it’s debug info)

[smoky anchor]

since you can do
/give @p mule_spawn_egg{EntityTag:{id:"minecraft:villager"}} 1
I would expect spigot to have a way as well

[misty zenith]

when i changing the gamemode to survival from spectator this happening why ?

@EventHandler
    public void onDamage(EntityDamageByEntityEvent e){
        if (e.getEntity() instanceof Player damageGetter && e.getDamager() instanceof Player damager){

                    e.setCancelled(true);
                    damageGetter.setHealth(20);
damageGetter.teleport(ArenaManager.getTeam(damageGetter).getSpawnLocation());
                    damageGetter.setGameMode(GameMode.SPECTATOR);
                    arena.playerDeath(damageGetter);

// after 5 seconds:

                timeTORespawn.put(id,t);
                Player player = Bukkit.getPlayer(id);
                if (t == 0)

            }

[unborn sable]

Well I want to store the entity's data like villager trades or sheep wool color

[shadow night]

is there a way to know when the player is clicking the space bar?

[smoky anchor]

yeah, the vanilla nbt EntityTag can spawn entity with set nbt
just trying to find a spigot equivalent is probing to be difficult

[young knoll]

There is no API for it

[smoky anchor]

jump stat increase if on ground

[shadow night]

but I need to also know when in air

[eternal oxide]

you can't jump when in the air so can't detect

[echo basalt]

this is an annoying problem I got a good approach for

[smoky anchor]

half solution: give player the ability to fly, once they start "flying" the player pressed space

[shadow night]

hmm, that sounds like it makes sense

[earnest fiber]

are PDCs on players preserved on death? I remember having to hook into the death event to copy over NBT for a mod a long time ago

[echo basalt]

actually nvm my solution has nothing to do with your problem

it's just an elegant way of handling spectators

[smoky anchor]

yeah but they have to press it twice
so again, half solution

[rapid garden]

No, it prints all sorts of errors in the console

Tbh I don't know what half of them mean

[shadow night]

for what I'm doing it for it seems to be enough

[misty zenith]

what is it

[smoky anchor]

wait so you have problems not with logic...
Start with that next time maybe

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[smoky anchor]

send the erros

[shadow night]

I want to make like semi flying, like not normal flying, but a little bit, maybe like jetpack or something

[balmy beacon]

Possible?

[rapid garden]

Here you go: https://paste.md-5.net/ifahuvuqim.pl

[smoky anchor]

well for that sneaking midair might be a bit better, you can control the velocity of player more precisely
tho again, ping is an issue

[smoky anchor]

don't cast to EnchantmentStorageMeta

[mellow edge]

what is spigot using to colorfully display player joining in yellow? because cmd doesn't support ChatColor colors

[smoky anchor]

normal items can have enchantments so it is pointless
and the meta is probably for enchantment books

[remote swallow]

EnchantmentStorageMeta is for enchanted books only

[rapid garden]

So I should just use ItemMeta resultItemMeta = resultItem.getItemMeta();?

[smoky anchor]

yes

[tranquil beacon]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask the question, but can someone help me resolve this error? Thank you.

[smoky anchor]

not an error, a warning

[tranquil beacon]

I replaced spigot-api with spigot because I want to use NMS. So, is it okay if I have this warning?

I understand! Thanks!

[ivory sleet]

Wdym establish

U just use getConnection on w/e thread

with try-with-resources

[shadow night]

can I somehow make my plugin not kick players for flying when they fly too high with my jetpack kinda fly?

or is it about disabling enabling flying on the server?

[young knoll]

You gotta disable it on server

[shadow night]

oof

but ig

[orchid trout]

everything in my plugin works except the commands

no errors in console

i had no permissions

[sage patio]

how i can save a text like this into a String:
[{"translate":"a"},{"text":"test","font":"default","color":"#2804f9"}]
from config?
snakeyml does not allow that and shows a lot of errors because of " and more ...

[eternal oxide]

first try surrounding the entire thing with ` `

[spare hazel]

switch (clickedItem.getType()) {
            case GOLDEN_HOE:
                closeInventory(p);
                new SkillGui(player, "Farming", Material.GOLDEN_HOE).openInventory(p);
                break;
            case STONE_SWORD:

                new SkillGui(player, "Combat", Material.STONE_SWORD).openInventory(p);
                break;
            case STONE_PICKAXE:

                break;
        }

why does this code open all the guis?

[fluid river]

wdym all

this code is disgusting tho

yeah

[spare hazel]

it opens a gui for each skill defined on this switch case statement

[chrome beacon]

It's also ignoring the fact that you shouldn't close or open inventories directly in the click event

[spare hazel]

yes i know

[spare hazel]

why?

[chrome beacon]

 The following should never be invoked by an EventHandler for InventoryClickEvent using the HumanEntity or InventoryView associated with this event:

    HumanEntity.closeInventory()
    HumanEntity.openInventory(Inventory)
    HumanEntity.openWorkbench(Location, boolean)
    HumanEntity.openEnchanting(Location, boolean)
    InventoryView.close() 

^^ From Javadocs

[spare hazel]

why?

[eternal oxide]

results may vary

[spare hazel]

there should be a reason

i asked why is my switch case statement is executing all the code and got i shouldn't close or open inventories directly in the click event

[mellow pebble]

what is your opinion is it better to make plugin in kotlin or in java ?

[eternal oxide]

Your switch will not be opening all the inventories at once

[flint coyote]

oh no he mentioned kotlin. Time to die

[spare hazel]

but it does

[eternal oxide]

but opening inventories in teh client event can have vey random outcomes

[mellow pebble]

why do you think so

[eternal oxide]

impossible

[spare hazel]

?img doesnt work for me
alternatives?

[undone axle]

Not verified? Upload screenshots here: https://prnt.sc/

[eternal oxide]

first follow the javadocs. Do not close/open inventories in the click event.

[spare hazel]

then where should i do that

[mellow pebble]

but type inference is fine unless you are not trying to get value of that type ?

[eternal oxide]

don;t bother calling close at all as opening one will close th eold.

to open a new you do a runTask#

[mellow pebble]

we can say it is really simple langauge simple to look at read and work with

[spare hazel]

even if im mnot doing it in the click event?

[eternal oxide]

yes

[spare hazel]

but whatever leme try again

[shadow night]

is there some event for when an item gets destroyed in any way? Cactus, lava, fire, void, whatever

[paper trout]

hey does enyone know kotlin?
i'm getting this error: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: kotlin/jvm/internal/Intrinsics for java 8
and onJoinEvent isn't working
i can give more details as needed

[mellow pebble]

wait until someone sends that command for java docs

[mellow pebble]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[mellow pebble]

let us see your code

[shadow night]

I can visit javadocs myself

[mellow pebble]

well might be because it is not onJoinEvent

[mellow pebble]

yes i hate when they do that to me because i can also visit them myself

[shadow night]

problem is, it seems like there is no such event which is not good

[spare hazel]

how to build directly onto the plugin folder?

[paper trout]

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

[mellow pebble]

ItemDespawn ?

[paper trout]

i've tried meny ways to do join event

[spare hazel]

its PlayerJoinEvent

[paper trout]

i tried that one

[shadow night]

only when it despawns because of 5 minutes

[remote swallow]

do you shade the kotlin sdklib or whatever it is

[mellow pebble]

but it is not PlayerJoinEvent

it is playerJoinEvent

[remote swallow]

variable naming doesnt matter

[shadow night]

I wonder if I can somehow track a certain item on ground

[remote swallow]

the stdlib

[shadow night]

on what events can an item be thrown on ground?

[paper trout]

ok

[mellow pebble]

well you can track item that is dropped

[shadow night]

well, I need to know when it's dropped

[spare hazel]

but kotlin is disgusting use java

[mellow pebble]

there is event for when player drops item

[paper trout]

i wanted to try something new

[rapid garden]

Isn't Kotlin like a superset of Java?

[shadow night]

what if the player dies? or the item is dropped after destruction of a chest or something?

[paper trout]

and it did nothing :
no console error and no message

[mellow pebble]

not sure what to tell you i only know there is PlayerDropItemEvent and you can get item that is dropped and i dont think there would be any problem with tracking that item even if player is dead

for items dropped by destruction or something like that really dont have any clue

[remote swallow]

you dont register the event

[shadow night]

well, that's shit

[mellow pebble]

you can do same stuff as in java you can use same libraries as in java but it is just much simpler

[spare hazel]

idk if this is how you do it in kotlin but add @fresh templetHandler on the line before you define the onplayerjoin function/method

[remote swallow]

its there

[mellow pebble]

ask elgarl he might know something about it

[shadow night]

I thougt bukkit was full of events and stuff, but in reality, it just has no events I need

[spare hazel]

and register it in the onEnable method

[paper trout]

you should have used ` around the @

[rapid garden]

Yeah, so why don't use Kotlin? It even replaced Java as the prefered language for android app development

[spare hazel]

nms probably has it. i mean its the minecraft server code and minecraft contains all of those sooooooo

[spare hazel]

use nms

[shadow night]

I would bet even mojang doesn't need these events

[mellow pebble]

indeed android studio is just letting you use kotlin you have to get to java on other ways rn

i made recently plugin in kotlin and yeah it is quite simple th

[paper trout]

but how do i regester it?

[shadow night]

also, I'm not some kind of mage to be converting nms stuff to bukkit and vice versa

[remote swallow]

do you know java

[paper trout]

not alot

[remote swallow]

learn more java first

[spare hazel]

then how does it delete the item?

[paper trout]

i do it in my spare time but i'm not a pro at it

this is how i learn

i play and experement

[remote swallow]

this is kotlin, you wont learn java by doing this

[mellow pebble]

in onEnable function you should put plugin.registerEvents(this, this)

[paper trout]

and i learn as i go

obviously

i heard korlin was easier then java

[shadow night]

getWorld().getEntity(itemEntity).delete() or something, idk I'm not a mojang developer

[remote swallow]

but it should be getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this)

[paper trout]

so i wanted to check it out

[remote swallow]

getting support is harder

a lot less people here know it

[rapid garden]

Yeah, I don't get why Kotlin hasn't replaced Java altogether. Java devs are still among the top earners and Java is still in demand (mostly for legacy/maintenance of codebases though).

[spare hazel]

but it needs an event to do that

[shadow night]

it only needs to be able to track the item, that's it

[eternal oxide]

Many java devs have zero interest in kotlin. It's too close to a scripting language than programming.

[mellow pebble]

well no need for that i mean there is going to be new java update soon that will make java look similar to kotlin and much simpler for learning so yeah 🤷🏻‍♂️

[shadow night]

ElgarL, I've been told to ask you about my problem

[eternal oxide]

problem?

[mellow pebble]

no much difference it is just way simpler rest is the same 🤷🏻‍♂️

[eternal oxide]

yeah we don;t want simpler

we want precise

[paper trout]

hey now it works, but i'm still getting this NoClassDefFoundError :\

[shadow night]

basically, I want to be able to know when a certain item is destructed in any way by the void, cactus, lava or anything at all, but I need to either have an event for when the item is gone or an event for when the item lands on ground and then to track it

[rapid garden]

It stills compiles to JVM though

[shadow night]

that means I can write kotlin code, compile it, decompile it and continue writing in java

[eternal oxide]

not a simple task

[shadow night]

I know

[eternal oxide]

you'd do better to think of a different way to handle your item

why do you want to track it so accurately?

[mellow pebble]

first of all if you are trying to learn java by coding plugins dont do it dumb way try to do it right way so you dont have to throw your knowledge in trash once you find out it is not prefered to make listeners and commands in the same class which is also main class of the plugin and second of all is to learn basics before even trying to go and learn plugins as it will make it easier for you

[echo basalt]

I remember my homie once made a plugin that was like "item dropped by X, picked up by hopper, landed in a chest opened by Y" and it was a shitshow

[shadow night]

I need to be able to return it with some cool effect after destruction, making it completely indestructable

[eternal oxide]

you would lose track of it if the chunk unloads

[shadow night]

right

which means it will also work as a chunk loader

[eternal oxide]

you can;t guarantee to track it 100%

why not simply prevent it being dropped?

[echo basalt]

pdc

[rapid garden]

That was a respond to ElgarL's comment about Kotlin. If it's still compiled into the JVM, it doesn't matter if it "looks" like a scripting language, it still has pretty much the same performance.

[paper trout]

i'm not learning java for the sake of learning java, i'm learning java to make plugins for my own server
if i could write plugins in python my life would be 100 times easier lol
i have passed a java learning session in the past but over the years i kinda forgot it

[eternal oxide]

I never mentioned performance, I said precision

[shadow night]

because players still need to be able to give it to each other and also, how is it going to just cancel death?

[quiet ice]

Groovy would like to have a word with you

[shadow night]

why do I always come up with the most complicated shit

[tribal valve]

Do I need to use maven to build plugins? Cuz Im using my own build artifact

[eternal oxide]

Workign with Spigot Maven is recomended for building

[shadow night]

mavern

[tribal valve]

Okay thanks

[paper trout]

and like everything in the project is going fine really but i don't know how to get rid of this kotlin/jvm/internal/Intrinsics issue
like is java ment to have that? or is it ment to be imported into the JAR and isn't?

[quiet ice]

But it isn't required.

[shadow night]

I thought of making it soulbound, but I don't think I can do that in this case

[dry forum]

        wc.type(WorldType.FLAT);
        wc.environment(World.Environment.NORMAL);
        wc.generatorSettings("2;0;1;");
        world = wc.createWorld();```

https://pastebin.com/UrDJ93DG why am i getting this error?

[paper trout]

oh lol it's fine

[fluid river]

you still have this error?

or it is fixed already

[paper trout]

yah i still have it

[fluid river]

so what exactly is the problem

[echo basalt]

Your generator settings have to be like a json thing

[quaint mantle]

Never use Kotlin for plugins solved.

[fluid river]

u use maven/gradle

u shadowed stuff

your mc version matches target

and same for java

[paper trout]

i compile from kotlin and in the compiled code i see this
which links to the NoClassDefFoundError

i used maven

[fluid river]

show your pom

and joinevent original code

[river oracle]

Maven plus kotlin must be a nightmare

[fluid river]

true

isn't kotlin meant to be used mostly with gradle

[paper trout]

hasn't been a nightmare for me honistly

[river oracle]

Yes. It's meant to be used with gradle fully

[fluid river]

your plugin isn't even working rn

[quaint mantle]

Try to use fat jar

[fluid river]

so it is

[fluid river]

@paper trout

[paper trout]

give me a second

[paper trout]

i works until i try to run code that has the intrisics

and https://paste.md-5.net/vaziqinuru.xml

the pom

[quaint mantle]

So which jar you put into the plugins folder?

[fluid river]

wait

[paper trout]

the compiled jar, what other jar would i use?

[fluid river]

isn't mc 1.16 not supporting java 8

[paper trout]

no thats 1.17

1.16 still uses java 8-11

[quaint mantle]

Use shaded or without any suffix

[paper trout]

confused what that means

[fluid river]

trueee

[fluid river]

when you build

there should be default .jar

[river oracle]

I've had the same issue my intellij just dies once a class gets over 200 lines which is a nightmare for my gui items which I usually store in enums

[quaint mantle]

Solution buy more ram

[fluid river]

and jar-with-dependencies.jar

[river oracle]

I have 32 gigs def not the issue

Mine has been freezing too in larger classes

[tall dragon]

are you actually allocating more to intellij?

[echo basalt]

my discord likes to die

when I type for long enough

[paper trout]

this is where the output of the jar goes and i only get one jar file

[tall dragon]

just having more ram wont change anything

[river oracle]

Yeah I tried allocating 4 gigs but then it stopped starting lmfao

[echo basalt]

I run my intellij with 4gb and it works fine

[remote swallow]

you shouldnt do it like that

[paper trout]

why not?

[tall dragon]

yea i got 8gb there

[remote swallow]

that way doesnt build with maven, so you dont shade kotlin

[echo basalt]

likes burning ram but

[remote swallow]

read this https://blog.jeff-media.com/how-to-make-maven-automatically-put-your-plugins-jar-into-your-test-servers-plugins-folder/

[kind hatch]

I run it with 2GB and it runs just fine.

[tall dragon]

i also have some custom jvm flags that helped for me

-Xmx8048m 
-XX:ParallelGCThreads=4 
-XX:+ParallelRefProcEnabled 
+PerfDisableSharedMem

[echo basalt]

why would you have a file with over 500 lines

that's the real problem

[kind hatch]

I've worked on classes with over 2K lines at a time, 2GB is more than enough.

[tall dragon]

Help -> Edit Custom VM Options

[echo basalt]

still no

Case and point, the BuildTools GUI that we are working on. The form classes are massive.

[paper trout]

so should i delete my artifact information and do this?

[quaint mantle]

Do you use wrapper install/package?

[paper trout]

?

[echo basalt]

get better cpu lol

[tall dragon]

unfortunate :d

that builds with intellij

on the right of your screen opent he maven tab

then lifecylces

then press package

that totally didn't take like 2 hours of banging my head before asking lol

[vast ledge]

and 2k hours on hypixel sb :{

[echo basalt]

still salty they haven't replied to my applications

[vast ledge]

Hm

[echo basalt]

apex

[vast ledge]

hm

i dont play that

[vast ledge]

you walk to slow

[quaint mantle]

Oh wait, wrong channel lol

[vast ledge]

Go to #help-server

[karmic mural]

Should we move this to #general though

[echo basalt]

nah

[vast ledge]

probs

[echo basalt]

this is fine here

[vast ledge]

not

[echo basalt]

it's character development

[karmic mural]

eh ok guess game

[vast ledge]

gets banned

apex

?

[echo basalt]

nah

[vast ledge]

valo?

[echo basalt]

that's not the apex banner

[vast ledge]

no valo aint on steam

[karmic mural]

Custom banners exist

or existed? My PUBG banner has been nuked

[quaint mantle]

Lets talk about games in #help-development channel 😁

[echo basalt]

prolly gmod or some degen game

[echo basalt]

character development

[vast ledge]

What he said

[karmic mural]

Destiny 2

[echo basalt]

yeah I was correct

[karmic mural]

lmfao yes

Most played game after Minecraft

[echo basalt]

I used to play minecraft a lot more when I was a kid

[karmic mural]

Wish I could know, cause I have played a lot of Minecraft

[echo basalt]

then I started making plugins

and now I despise opening the game

[karmic mural]

new season banner

[karmic mural]

I love it, it's the part where my console tells me why I am stupid

[vast ledge]

the torturing thoughts of what youve done and the pain you experienced while making plugins

[echo basalt]

I literally know NMS inside out

people at school just used to be like

[vast ledge]

PacketPlayOut

[echo basalt]

"yo illusion help me solve this argument"

"can you use a hoe to melt items on a furnace"

[vast ledge]

<wa

yes

[echo basalt]

only if it's a wooden hoe

[vast ledge]

ye

it burns for 10 ticks

i think

not ticks

[echo basalt]

yet no one cares about how fucked the scaffolding block is

[vast ledge]

...

[echo basalt]

and how it recalculates its entire structure on any scaffold's block update

[vast ledge]

why does it burn for 60s

[karmic mural]

Dawg 💀

[echo basalt]

you can place a block next to a scaffold and the entire structure re-calcs its integrity

[vast ledge]

and string doesnt even burn

[karmic mural]

stop it you're scaring me

LOOK AT BUG

[vast ledge]

thats nothing

[echo basalt]

oh no p_

[young knoll]

I had to figure out why my custom block was being destroyed by water earlier

[karmic mural]

oh, I know. I just wanted to distract lol

[echo basalt]

nowadays I just do whatever

[young knoll]

Turns out any block with noCollision in its properties gets destroyed by water

[echo basalt]

make minigames or something

[vast ledge]

you havent experience the pain, the agony the FUCKING WILL TO SLEF DESTRUCT, WHEN YOU CAN DISABLE MONGO LOGGER ON STARTUP EVEN THO YOU SPENT 5 HOURS TRYING

[echo basalt]

how the fuck do you disable the mongo logger

[vast ledge]

Cnat*

[karmic mural]

But why do I get a Null exception WHEN I LITERALLY CHECK FOR NULL RIGHT BEFORE

[vast ledge]

IDK

I GAVE UP

[echo basalt]

it does everything but fire exceptions

[vast ledge]

Hey, oh yea today were gna send ur password, the connection uri everything in the console

But no

were not sending that one important exception

[young knoll]

I did manage to disable it once

[echo basalt]

mongo in a nutshell

[vast ledge]

HOW

TELL US THE SECRET

[young knoll]

Uhh

Let me see if I can find it

[vast ledge]

Even ChatGPT couldnt disable it

[quaint mantle]

just use a middleware api with a socket connection and secure it

[echo basalt]

I literally got so bored last night that I wrote this https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/using-influxdb-and-grafana-for-internal-metrics.609971/#post-4608466

[vast ledge]

I dont use apis

[quaint mantle]

this way you can read/write to mongo without importing the mongo library at all

[quaint mantle]

i meant set it up yourself

[vast ledge]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/mongodb-guide/

[quaint mantle]

chatgpt isnt a developer, its just a chatbot that knows a bunch of code snippets by memory

[vast ledge]

yet it still cant disable MongoLogger

[echo basalt]

yeah I'm not a fan of that guide

[quaint mantle]

cause i dont think you can, one approach would be self hosting a middleware api but you said you dont want to so idk

[echo basalt]

fun

[vast ledge]

IT DOESNT WORK

I TRIED

[karmic mural]

🎧

[vast ledge]

EVERYTHING

I SOLD MY SOUL TO THE DEVIL

HE COULDNT HELP ME

[quaint mantle]

or you could decompile the mongo lib, edit it and recompile it so it doesnt log

[karmic mural]

💀

[echo basalt]

pov: hypixel

[young knoll]

I think the only thing I did was use an old driver version

💀

[vast ledge]

The Entire console is just fucking Monog logger xD

[quaint mantle]

yeah recompile it however you like man

i hope you are familiar with that unless its heavily obfiscated or sum shit

[karmic mural]

What would be the best way to check if a player is holding an item when PlayerInteractEvent triggers? 'cause I feel like it could be better

Currently I just get the main hand and check if the value is null or Air

[young knoll]

The event has a getItem

Then just null check it

[karmic mural]

thx

[quaint mantle]

(event.getItem() != null) i think

[karmic mural]

Bro I've started on this plugin 3 times and I keep wanting to restart 💀 It's so dumb I can't seem to get it "right"

[chrome beacon]

You learn something each iteration

You wanting to restart shows that you've learned something

[karmic mural]

I think I should just get it fully functioning at this point, though. Dwelling too much over having things perfect will lead to insanity at some point

I think I borrowed too much code from the previous version, though. Some methods have proven to be... quite bad.

[forest pumice]

Is there anyway to check if a block was broken before in the on block break event?

[vast ledge]

catch nms packet

[vast ledge]

what plugin ya making

[river oracle]

Me every time I start a project I've redone projects 10 times 😭

[vast ledge]

Me everytime i restart the same goddam project like 50 times and end up just not doing it

[karmic mural]

convenient mass single-item storage

It's all basically working it's just that I'm not satisfied with the code lol

[vast ledge]

so you can save like 50k of one item?

[vast ledge]

Why are you not satisfied?

is the code not clean?

[river oracle]

That doesn't seem too bad, maybe serializing contents. Though you could let mc do that if it's physical

[karmic mural]

Yeah

[vast ledge]

Wouldnt it be simpler, to just save the data on the item

[karmic mural]

PDC

[river oracle]

Yeah, simpler but the utilizing the container would be powerful too granted idk the extent to which you can use containers completely server sided

[vast ledge]

I mean not even using a container

[river oracle]

Virtual?

[vast ledge]

if your displaying the amount of items saved in the mass storage

why not use the metadata

lore**

ur updating it anyway

so why not

[karmic mural]

It's inconvenient

[river oracle]

Lore is bad PDC is gud

[vast ledge]

it efficient

[vast ledge]

PDC takes space doe

[karmic mural]

Lore is simply for users sake

[young knoll]

So does lore

[river oracle]

That's a hyper optimization

[vast ledge]

but if you already have lore, why not utilize it?

[karmic mural]

What if I ever want to change the way lore is displayed?

Much easier to have it stored in PDC in that case

[vast ledge]

wdym?

[river oracle]

PDC more versatile

Easier to retrieve

And a better storage format in the underlying nbt

[karmic mural]

Like if I have "Stored: 500"
but then I want the number on a separate line

[vast ledge]

you have to admit tho, lore would be more efficient, even if its inconvenient

[karmic mural]

So if a player has an item with the first iteration, how do I then update it safely

I have to have a check for that in perpetuity

[river oracle]

It's not

[karmic mural]

Instead of just changing the display style, and getting data from PDC

[river oracle]

Parsing takes more computing power than a retrieval from memory

[vast ledge]

but if ur already updating the number

ur writing

to mem

[karmic mural]

I'm updating the meta regardless, what's an extra operation?

I get the efficiency perspective, but we're running on GBs not KBs

[vast ledge]

i cant say much about optimization when im currently running a vector calc on every player move even

t

[karmic mural]

💀

[echo basalt]

Are you seriously arguing that parsing a stringlist that's visible to the end customer is more efficient than just using an internal data structure?

[vast ledge]

maybe...

[young knoll]

💀

[vast ledge]

I mean, why read once and write twice, when you could just read once and write once

[eternal night]

not to mention that lore has to be parsed from json on every getLore call

[vast ledge]

cries in inefficiency

[wide coyote]

lore is not for you to use or compare at all, its just for display and for the client

just use pdc or at least nbt

[vast ledge]

AnYwAyS, anybody wanna see my epic Entity that is def the best ever created?

[wide coyote]

same with the displayname

[vast ledge]

stop speaking in inefficiency, i dont speak that language

[young knoll]

Itemstack PDC type when

[chrome beacon]

?morepdc

[undone axle]

You can create custom persistent data types on your own, or use one of the many libraries available which have implemented those which match your needs. Learn about more persistent data types here: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/more-persistent-data-types-collections-maps-and-arrays-for-pdc.520677/

[chrome beacon]

^ Alex already has a neat lib for that

[young knoll]

Not part of the official api

Invalid

-2/10

[chrome beacon]

Merge MorePDC with Spigot when

[young knoll]

Ask MD :p

[chrome beacon]

@tender shard

[eternal night]

promoting arbitrary formats for itemstacks to API sounds five head

[vast ledge]

why use pdc, save it in a binary file

[young knoll]

And then put the file into PDC!

[vast ledge]

Yes

[opal juniper]

or just, stop being lazy and do it yourself :)

[vast ledge]

?

[opal juniper]

write complete ItemStack -> YAML converter with all tags

[young knoll]

That already exists

[vast ledge]

Wait

i have a better idea

[young knoll]

ItemStack is ConfigurationSerializable

[chrome beacon]

Is is

[vast ledge]

Translate it to yaml, translate that to binary, use an encryption key on that, then put it in a pdc

[opal juniper]

i thought it only did some of the shit, mb

[chrome beacon]

MorePDC uses the fact that ItemStack is configuration serializable stores that

[young knoll]

Ah I thought it used a BukkitObjectOutputStream to turn it into bytes

[ionic terrace]

If I change my config.yml file and then restart the server, my changes are being overriden with the config.yml file that was loaded when the server started. Any ideas why this is happening?

[chrome beacon]

Yeah it does that

https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/MorePersistentDataTypes/blob/master/src/main/java/com/jeff_media/morepersistentdatatypes/datatypes/serializable/ConfigurationSerializableDataType.java#L68

[vast ledge]

Take alook at my epic code

[eternal night]

yea but bukkit output stream is kinda bleh for writing an item stack

[chrome beacon]

You can always PR smth better

[young knoll]

Iirc paper has a different method

[vast ledge]

did i just see the word starting with p and ends with r

[karmic mural]

Dawg I stepped away for a few minutes, what happened 💀

[vast ledge]

notin

[river oracle]

Fr

It's spigot let's do it

I like Alex's library though if it were to be merged with spigot we'd need to cut stuff out

[young knoll]

New spigot license

Any change you make in a fork you must propose as a PR

Or else you die

[river oracle]

Lol

Sounds like a horrible license let's do it

Whose hiring the mercenaries

[vast ledge]

Vectors are actually quite interesting

i like them

[potent ibex]

PacketPlayOutEntityStatus packet = new PacketPlayOutEntityStatus(
                        ((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle(), (byte) 35 
                );

is this method deprecated in spigot and paper api for 1.20.1?

[vast ledge]

BLYAT

[potent ibex]

seems doesn't work anymore

[vast ledge]

No paper

here

[remote swallow]

Pr

[potent ibex]

I mean same in spigot

[eternal night]

what do you mean "is this internal logic deprecated"

it isn't even exposed

[potent ibex]

oh

k

[eternal night]

like, you need NMS access for that

it isn't API

[potent ibex]

oh okay then what should I add for NMS?

[eternal night]

?nms

[undone axle]

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

[vast ledge]

build tools

or just use the link provided

[potent ibex]

is there gradle version for this?

[vast ledge]

no

buildtools

[potent ibex]

so only maven does work

[vast ledge]

NO

[eternal night]

you can use paperweight-userdev for gradle

[vast ledge]

BUILDTOOLS

[eternal night]

but that gets you all of paper

[vast ledge]

You build it with build tools

and import it with maven/gradle

[eternal night]

wtf are you talking about

you need reobfuscation

[vast ledge]

?

[young knoll]

Follow the guide

[eternal night]

^

just follow the guide yea

[vast ledge]

have i been doing it wrong my entire life

[young knoll]

It’ll have you run buildtools to get remapped jars and set up the maven special source plugin

[ivory sleet]

no not at all

but kotlin compiles to jvm compatible bytecode

so does java

[rapid garden]

Can't you write plain java code in Kotlin?

[ivory sleet]

no

kotlin interoperate java code

but no

they're syntactically different

if kotlin were a superset of java, it'd mean valid java code is valid kotlin code

which is not the case

[rapid garden]

Oh, I thought that was the case

[ivory sleet]

ye it isn't, keyword, they compile to the same type of bytecode

[rapid garden]

Like some Python libraries that let you write C code

[ivory sleet]

i dont think C is a superset of Py tho

like, a good example is perhaps json and yaml

yaml is a superset of json since valid json is valid yaml

[rapid garden]

Damn, I had it confused

Thanks for the clarification

[ivory sleet]

Yea no worries (:

[echo basalt]

grr just wasted the past hour debugging 1 line

spot the difference

[unborn sable]

Definitely the name of the function

[echo basalt]

definitely not the event handlers not cleaning up

[unborn sable]

Yea

[echo basalt]

which was breaking my "WaitForPlayersPhase" as it still had a stray listener that was breaking things

and I thought I had duplicate games

[earnest fiber]

Is there a way to store server-wide data in a Persistent Data Container, or is it better to just put it in a file? The closest thing I could find is World#getPersistentDataContainer(), but I'd rather it not be tied to a world

[echo basalt]

yeah you should just use a file

[potent ibex]

Okay so I did manage to send packet using protocol

but now it's just complicated to send other custom item instead of totem when player revives

[tender shard]

https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/PersistentDataSerializer/blob/main/src/main/java/com/jeff_media/persistentdataserializer/PersistentDataSerializer.java

with my PersistentDataSerializer you can turn any PDC into json and vice versa

so yeah you could just save it to a file

the resulting json is also human readable and not some gibberish

[quaint mantle]

yes, the values don't get saved into the file

[dry forum]

whats the best way to make a mob walk along a certain block (wtith turns)

[summer scroll]

Is there in any way to disable bed night skipping? Like disable x/x players sleeping on right clicking bed.

[pseudo hazel]

just set the percentage to 100

its a gamerule

[timber crescent]

how can i make a froghead with skullmeta?

[pseudo hazel]

find a skin/player for it

and then its like any other skull

[timber crescent]

i have a skin, but idk how i could set it to a skullmeta isnt it for players?

[pseudo hazel]

yes

idk how it works exactly, I just meant that its the same process for any other head presumably

[timber crescent]

this the give command im usin n every attempt i try to get it working in spigot api it dont work
give artcel skull 1 3 {display:{Name:"Frog"},SkullOwner:{Id:"6e0e69d8-ac58-40a1-baf8-68de9d85cff8",Properties:{textures:[{Value:"eyJ0ZXh0dXJlcyI6eyJTS0lOIjp7InVybCI6Imh0dHA6Ly90ZXh0dXJlcy5taW5lY3JhZnQubmV0L3RleHR1cmUvZDJjM2I5OGFkYTE5OTU3ZjhkODNhN2Q0MmZhZjgxYTI5MGZhZTdkMDhkYmY2YzFmODk5MmExYWRhNDRiMzEifX19"}]}}}

[echo basalt]

?nocode

[undone axle]

It’s hard to answer a programming question without code
Oh no! You ran into a problem. But no worries, people are willing to help, but first they need to see your code. This is because otherwise, they would be providing help based on guesses instead of concrete knowledge. Whether it be a compile error, runtime error, or an unexpected output, I'm sure that if you were to provide code, you'd receive a quick solution.

[quaint mantle]

If I make mutliple calls to persistantDataContainer.set

can I set the item meta after all of them or do I need to set them after each call?

[placid moss]

you can set after all of them

[quaint mantle]

how do I convert a component to a string

[empty comet]

Kinda going nuts over this one, i'm trying to do a daily bank interest system, but i'm stuck on how to check IF the player has reseted or not :/

I currently have the last reset time(code), the last connection of the player in time(code), the current time(code) of course

  LocalDateTime lastresetplusone = lastreset.plusDays(1);
  LocalDateTime current = LocalDateTime.now(ZoneId.of("America/New_York"));
  LocalDateTime lastconnection = ConvertStringTime(data.get(new NamespacedKey(plugin, "lastconnect"), PersistentDataType.STRING));

i think my problem is that the reset happen at 12pm, so i can't just check if the day has passed, i need to check everything, down to the minute/hour

[quaint mantle]

java.lang.ClassCastException: class org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_20_R1.inventory.CraftMetaFirework cannot be cast to class org.bukkit.inventory.meta.FireworkEffectMeta (org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_20_R1.inventory.CraftMetaFirework and org.bukkit.inventory.meta.FireworkEffectMeta are in unnamed module of loader java.net.URLClassLoader @27fa135a)

How is this possible?

[lost schooner]

So if I am doing Player.getInventory() how do I duplicate the inventory/save it for later so the data doesn't change out from under me when the player's inventory changes?

I tried making a new PlayerInventory and then realized it was an interface

It's been such a long time since I've used Java tbh

[sullen marlin]

Firework v firework effect

[quaint mantle]

yeah

[sullen marlin]

getContents

[lost schooner]

How do I bind that to a variable and then restore it after?
