[rare rover]

Oh my.

He only criticizes it if it has a major flaw usually

Which yours definitely does

[umbral ridge]

Why what's the point, is it gonna use 100% of my server processors cpu? XD

that little compute method does nothing huge

[shadow night]

bro ur name 💀

[rare rover]

No, cache it

Dont make a new pattern everytime

Wastes performance

[umbral ridge]

I posted the code for help, not for other people to find every single wrong thing about it

[rare rover]

Well they on drugs

It's bad dont do it

Cache the pattern

[umbral ridge]

I'll cache it alright? xD

[rare rover]

😄

[remote swallow]

only when it hurts my head enough

dispatch the command and have them as sender or player.chat

[dawn plover]

bro, idk what is happening lol
anyone else faced the same problem?
I am trying to add an event listener to the pluginmanager
But the TeamSystem gives error for somea reason. it sais found TeamSystem, needs Listener
But the TeamSystem is a Listener

[remote swallow]

kotlin smh

is that the same format for the other systems

[umbral ridge]

I see you're more sensitive to bad code then XD A few quarters more of processor usage (0.25%) doesn't bother me though.. I'll cache it, it's not a big flaw

[remote swallow]

aalso check you have the right import

[dawn plover]

yup

[dawn plover]

omg, i am so dumb

[remote swallow]

blame the fact websocket comes up first

[dawn plover]

Bro, what did inteliJ think, i am building a website in minecraft?!?

yerah

Have furnace minecarts become any less jank in the past few years, or are they still painful legacy entities that don't understand how to survive within a modern server environment and don't understand basic physics?

Is someone of you experienced with jakarta persistence api? I want to use it with spigot but I get the following error: jakarta.persistence.PersistenceException: No Persistence provider for EntityManager named persistence

[cunning crater]

@EventHandler
    private void entityChangeBlockEvent(EntityChangeBlockEvent e) {
        if (!game_running) {
            return;
        }
        if (e.getBlock().getWorld() != world) {
            return;
        }
        if (e.getBlock().getType() == Material.ANVIL) {
            e.getBlock().setType(Material.AIR);
            e.setCancelled(true);
            // now set to air the block under if it's quartz
            Block block = world.getBlockAt(new Location(world, e.getBlock().getX(), e.getBlock().getY() - 1, e.getBlock().getZ()));
            if (block.getType() == Material.QUARTZ_BLOCK) {
                block.setType(Material.AIR);
            }
            return;
        }
}

This is the code for an anvil spleef game i am coding. When anvils fall, they disappear and they drop a no texture item (1.8.8 server), and the quartz block below stays. Any idea why?

Turns out it was worldguard

[rare rover]

So you like wasting performance for a silly reason

Sounds great

[tender shard]

but caching the pattern is as easy as moving the line to outside of the method

[umbral ridge]

You guys are still interested in this? XD I've fixed that already a few hours ago

Thanks for improvement suggestions

[rare rover]

It hasn't even been an hour buddy

But yea

Cache patterns

👍🫡

[umbral ridge]

that "buddy" posted a code to help the other person and not listen your bullshit criticism on other peoples code, I'd recommend you to focus on you and your code mistakes, which in fact we all do, as we're all learning. If you have any other questions/concerns send me a dm (don't want to spam here) 🫡

[tender shard]

lol imagine being triggered by someone suggestion a simple change

[worldly ingot]

Your server will unnecessarily suffer if you fail to listen to the advice of people that have experienced the same mistakes you’re subjecting yourself to

[buoyant viper]

this makes me wonder, what the fuck am I doing for color parsing

[worldly ingot]

Do yourself a favour and take the advice of others because they’re giving it for a reason

Move your RegEx patterns out into a static field. You have no reason to recompile the same expression each time

Or don’t and have worse performing code. Idc

currently your trying to access the logger

i feel like you want to use c.a

[warm light]

any idea whats wrong with my ide?

[remote swallow]

reload maven or gradle

[warm light]

reloaded mvn, cleaned invalidate caches
but still same

[tender shard]

show the full error

the whole maven log

[worthy moat]

Can I just create a Scoreboard and then get it to change some lines?

[tender shard]

that's still only one line

[worthy moat]

Get in in another class

Without passing it manually

Because there is a manager.getMainScoreboard

[warm light]

well, its very long error

I mean many errors

where did you get slf4j-api-2.0.0-alpha1 from?

that file is broken

try mvn clean and if that doesn't work, remove slf4j from your local maven repo

[warm light]

alright. thanks. Let me try

[rare rover]

It's not a big deal, I'm just simply suggesting something, not sure why you getting all hostile on me. That's the whole point of this channel, were done here anyways I'm just trying to help 🙄

[hazy parrot]

i don't see giving good suggestion to improve your code as such a bad thing

[autumn cave]

How can I listen for Chunk change?

Block / Entities have changed within the chunk

I only see these events:

[buoyant viper]

now contribute a robust and highly feature full item gui api to it

and a better config api

[remote swallow]

the first thing i can do

just steal the config api from jishlib

[buoyant viper]

[remote swallow]

https://github.com/jishuna/jishlib

[silent steeple]

ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes doesnt work on hex colors

what do i use

[remote swallow]

you have to manually format it

[silent steeple]

wdym

[autumn cave]

And there are alot of Block Events, but they don't cover all block change possibilities. For example multi block change or block change with block.setType(...)

[remote swallow]

sone min

[silent steeple]

whats sone min

oh

one min

[buoyant viper]

the format for hex's in spigot is §x§R§R§G§G§B§B

[silent steeple]

seriously

[buoyant viper]

u need to convert #RRGGBB to that urself

yes

[silent steeple]

does anyone have a method that does that

im not bothered to do that

[remote swallow]

public class Formatter {
      private static final Pattern HEX_PATTERN = Pattern.compile("&#[a-fA-F0-9]{6}");
      

      public String format(String input) {
          Matcher matcher = HEX_PATTERN.matcher(input);
          while (matcher.find()) {
              String color = input.substring(matcher.start(), matcher.end();
              input.replace(color, String.valueOf(ChatColor.of(color));
              matcher = HEX_PATTERN.matcher(input);

          }
          return input;
      }
}

[silent steeple]

thx

[remote swallow]

(credit to @umbral ridge ) bc i was lazy and just wrote out mostly his code

[buoyant viper]

boy i really chose the least optimal didnt i

[remote swallow]

ye

i chose the easiest and went with minimessage

[silent steeple]

ChatColor.of?

[buoyant viper]

?paste for me

[undone axle]

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

[remote swallow]

bungee chat api

[silent steeple]

spigot chat api

[remote swallow]

you shouldnt really ever use the bukkit chatcolor class

[buoyant viper]

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

[silent steeple]

why not

[remote swallow]

its outdated

and its an enum and fuk dat shit

[buoyant viper]

i think the irony is i basically did what ChatColor.of does in the substr'd loop

[remote swallow]

L

[buoyant viper]

need a minimessage spigot adapter that isnt like

[mental nymph]

Is this possible to check does player has resource pack or not ?

[buoyant viper]

the one in minimessage

[remote swallow]

i use the leacy adapter

format it with minimessage to Component then legacy-ify it

[buoyant viper]

isnt it convoluted to use bc of Audiences n shit

[remote swallow]

hold on

https://github.com/The-Epic/EpicSpigotLib/blob/master/epicspigotlib-core/src/main/java/me/epic/spigotlib/formatting/Formatting.java#L12-L23

[buoyant viper]

useUnusualXRepeatedCharacterHexFormat

[remote swallow]

yus

[buoyant viper]

also hmm

i couldve sworn when i read it it said it would need a BukkitAudience or w/e

cos i looked at adventure/MM for my stuff before i wrote my formatter

my brain did a stupid

want the janky fix or the right fix

[autumn cave]

How can I listen for Chunk change? (Block / Entities have changed within the chunk)

[silent steeple]

either work

[remote swallow]

input.replace(color, String.valueOf(ChatColor.of(color.replace('&', ''))));

[buoyant viper]

can use mine, can also change mine to use ChatColor.of

[silent steeple]

Empty character literal

[buoyant viper]

try '\0' there idk

[silent steeple]

ight

[silent steeple]

same error

can i use urs @buoyant viper

[remote swallow]

this is why i never use chars

[buoyant viper]

i feel like ive done what u sent n its worked but idk

using double quotes should work, if somehow not yeah u can use mine @silent steeple

[silent steeple]

ight send urs thanks

[buoyant viper]

oh i just saw ur @, Monero 💪🏻

[buoyant viper]

mine is this thing

[silent steeple]

haha monero is fire

[brisk estuary]

Hey, does anybody know how to get a Biome's location? I want to create a custom compass that will point to the nearest x biome, which will be chosen by the player

[buoyant viper]

the types (in order of when they appear) are int, char, String @silent steeple

im guessing ur using JDK 8 for development?

or at least ur source version is set to 8?

[silent steeple]

no tis not

oh it is

why does it d otaht

[buoyant viper]

idk

[silent steeple]

yeah ur code works although what if its &#RRGGBB&L

for example to make it bold

[buoyant viper]

should work just fine

toSpigotHex will only convert hex's, formatColors does the rest/normal codes

[silent steeple]

what if its a hex and a modifier

cuz its not working

it does the hex but doesnt do the &l

[buoyant viper]

hmm

[velvet shard]

Sorry if this is obvious, but how do I check for a entities tag? I'm trying to check if a entity tag is one specific string

[silent steeple]

i have an idea

[buoyant viper]

i may be stupid, but im also about 1k miles away from home to fix my stupid

i hand off my errors to uhh @remote swallow

[silent steeple]

i think i got it

[remote swallow]

why are you 1k miles away

[buoyant viper]

vacation

[silent steeple]

why u on discord 😭 enjoy ur vacation

lmao

[buoyant viper]

and i forgot to leave my PC running so i cant VNC into it

[buoyant viper]

bored idk

[grizzled oasis]

how can i get the block the player is facing?

[buoyant viper]

like what block theyre looking at?

[grizzled oasis]

yes

more specifically the coordinate

[silent steeple]

yep solved it

[buoyant viper]

there should be a method rayTraceBlock in World (or Entity/Player?) that u might able to use

[buoyant viper]

what was wrong?

[silent steeple]

what i said

about the

&l

[buoyant viper]

oh no i mean like howd you fix it

so i can fix my code when i get home next week

[silent steeple]

this is my util class

public static String sColor(String s) {
        return ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', s);
    }

    private static final Pattern HEX_PATTERN = Pattern.compile("#[a-f0-9]{6}", Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE);

    public static String sColorHex(String text) {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

        for (var i = 0; i < text.length(); i++) {
            var c = text.charAt(i);

            if ((c == '\u00A7' || c == '&') && i + 7 < text.length()) {
                var hex = text.substring(i + 1, i + 8);

                if (HEX_PATTERN.matcher(hex).matches()) {
                    sb.append("\u00A7x");

                    for (int o = 1; o < hex.length(); o++) {
                        sb.append('\u00A7').append(hex.charAt(o));
                    }

                    i += 7;
                    continue;
                }
            }

            sb.append(c);
        }

        return sb.toString();
    }

[zenith gate]

how can you get the name from an inventory?

[silent steeple]

and i used it like this

lore.add(sColor(sColorHex("|- &f&lGenerator Information:")));

for example

[buoyant viper]

yes

oh were u just forgetting to format the rest of the text

aka forgot to wrap sColorHex in sColor

i forget why i made them separate methods

probably bc i had spent so long trying (and failing) to properly parse the hex lmao

[zenith gate]

because you added it all into 1 line?

[buoyant viper]

ur not appending newlines by the looks of it

[timid hedge]

How do i split it up in lines?

[silent steeple]

add \n at the end of the strings

[wild basin]

Hey I have a question why is it when my config.yml file loads well it removes # and spaces?

[timid hedge]

It says Illegal character: \ (U+005C) and Cannot resolve symbole 'n'

[silent steeple]

ur doing it wrong

[timid hedge]

Isnt this right? String deathMessage = deathMessage1\n + deathMessage2\n

[hazy parrot]

deathMessage + "\n"

I am coding a player vault plugin. It will sort the items in order, not according to the slots placed. For this, the player saves the items according to the page every time he changes a page. But while inserting, I insert in order, but a few dupe issues arise. Does anyone have a suggestion for a different solution?

[timid hedge]

Does anyone know?

[hazy parrot]

can you explain

?notworking

"Does not working" is a useless statement. Please describe what exactly is not working, what you expect it to do, and what actually happens. If you get any console errors, also ?paste the entire stacktrace.

Fuuuck

[sick ermine]

help me

[tender shard]

?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.

[civic sluice]

fixed. probably need to add that to my global gitignore

[remote swallow]

i wouldnt do that

[civic sluice]

I hate that.

[remote swallow]

coll did that and he now couldnt run buildtools

[civic sluice]

Then probably a thing for pre commit hook or even pre add hook if that exists.

[tender shard]

pre commit hook? global gitignore? breaking buildtools? what are you all talking about lol. how can you even accidentally commit thousand files lol

[river oracle]

its very easy to accidently just click the commit all button

[civic sluice]

It is very easy to accidentally execute git add src instead of git add src/main/java/org/bukkit

[tender shard]

oh well I just select the files I changed in intellij

and it never even suggested to add any other files than the ones I changed

[pseudo hazel]

yeah image using git from command line

[remote swallow]

have you done a craftbukkit nms patch before though

[tender shard]

Craftbukkit yes, nms no

[worldly ingot]

git add * should add only changed files

Or, no, wait, sorry. git commit -am that is

There's probably a flag on git add as well that does this

[austere cove]

nah git add does only add changed files that aren't filtered out by gitignore

[civic sluice]

And nms changes are file changes. Apply patches moment.

[small current]

has anyone used it?

[civic sluice]

And nms isn't ignored in gitignore

How to use it

[timid hedge]

Why dosent my text get formatted? when my discord bot is sending "test" it isnt bolded in my coded i wrote this §ltest but it dosent work

[remote swallow]

because you cant color stuff on discord

you can format on discord, you can format and color in minecraft

[timid hedge]

But §l dosent work and ** around test dosent work too

[remote swallow]

where are you putting it

[timid hedge]

String test = "**▌test**"

[remote swallow]

yeah, where

a message? embed?

[timid hedge]

Sry sent the wrong method

Embed

[remote swallow]

this is also wrong

**test**

[small current]

Anyone used this?

[remote swallow]

look at this

[small current]

aight

@remote swallow where is the class used

[remote swallow]

read the javadocs

[small current]

i hate javadocs

you know where it is

tell me

[remote swallow]

its in the javados

[small current]

ok

[remote swallow]

if you cant read javadocs, and hate them. somehow i dont think you should be making stuff in java

[timid hedge]

Why isnt it getting formatted when my discord bot sends it?
String test = "▌**test** "

[small current]

because my internet is too slow for it

[remote swallow]

idk how ur internet can be that slow, i had 6 megabit down awnd could read them fine

[eternal oxide]

no way you are programming with an internet too slow to use javadocs

[small current]

yeah

i live in iran

[eternal oxide]

You could do it on dialup and be fine

[small current]

i sent this message like 16 seconds ago

it is that slow

[timid hedge]

Does anyone know why its not getting formatted?

[small current]

it gets boring, waiting for each page to load

[remote swallow]

i used to have 0.5 megabit up and could send messages just fine, i somehow doubt its worse than that

[eternal oxide]

unless you are on satellite internet

i create them through yaml files, nothing special. I just use the normal formatting codes https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/JeffBot/tree/master/src/main/java/com/jeff_media/jeffbot/discord/embed

[remote swallow]

works fine for me

the author doesnt support markdown, the description does

exactly like my screenshot

[tender shard]

Just look at the EmbedBuilder class

Its pretty self explanatory

[tender shard]

Or look at this, it reads a yml file and turns it into an embed

Also using embedbuilder

[remote swallow]

real

is this really how you keep something alive

[tender shard]

Yes, whats the problem with that?

[remote swallow]

nothing

i just didnt expect it

[tender shard]

Thats a typical game loop

[remote swallow]

i didnt know that was how you keep something alive

[tender shard]

Many games have a while(true) or while(running) or sth in the main thingy, i just did the same for the bot lol

[buoyant viper]

how did u stay alive?

[remote swallow]

TIL

[tender shard]

Pension funds hate this trick

[remote swallow]

someone used reflection and turned the queen off

correct

the author has no formatting

[buoyant viper]

reflection? she was just picked up by the Garbage Collector

[remote swallow]

she had a while(running)

[tender shard]

Fun fact: a letter from germany to UK only costs 30 cents more than germany -> germany

[buoyant viper]

damn yall gotta pay for in-country mailing?

[tender shard]

Yes, i sent a letter to wales few days ago

[buoyant viper]

jk u gotta use stamps for US too but i think it depends on the kind of mail

[zealous osprey]

Damn, I needed to pay like 1.20€ for Worms -> stuttgart XD

[tender shard]

hm yeah I also paid 1.20€ lol

[remote swallow]

wdym

[tender shard]

correction: 1.10€

[remote swallow]

wtf

oh wait

a letter

[tender shard]

normal letter is 0.85€

[remote swallow]

idk about letters

[tender shard]

national 0.85€ and international (every country) is 1.10€

[remote swallow]

is the class imported

[twin venture]

what is the best way to fix a race condetion in mysql ?
saving data on quit .
loading data on join .. ?

[remote swallow]

did you tell ur ide to add the import

[remote swallow]

use caffiene and yeah

[twin venture]

i have a cache system implemented

[tender shard]

it must show something

even if it cannot find the class, it'll show something

[twin venture]

so when player join :
i delay it to 1 second

but it seem to have no effect as it still load the old data ..

[remote swallow]

use futures

[twin venture]

futures?

[remote swallow]

also do it on the async pre join event

[twin venture]

i need to get the player instance .. and not the uuid

[remote swallow]

read this

[remote swallow]

you should never require a player instance

it should all run off uuids

[twin venture]

but iam setting it to the player ..

[tender shard]

Lets turn that into a blog post

a get Player is fine, but having a setPlayer will break as soon as the player leaves and you try and do something

[undone axle]

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

[twin venture]

what i can do now to fix it?

[icy bone]

Because if i try to use EntityChangeBlockEvent, the block just disapears and i think thats because this event stops it from going solid but the fallingblock disapears before hand

[remote swallow]

modify your code to not need a player instance and work off a uuid with the pre join event

[twin venture]

alright

[delicate lynx]

UUIDs my beloved

[remote swallow]

im so confused at this sentance

it just like

confuses me

[twin venture]

so technaiclly something like this can work?

and i won't need to set the player?

[remote swallow]

i feel a learnjava! coming

[remote swallow]

keep a weak reference of the player instance if you want

?paste your whole class

[undone axle]

[worthy moat]

Hey i want to update my scoreboard so I set a new Score on the current one

Score map = online.getScoreboard().getObjective(DisplaySlot.SIDEBAR).getScore(
                    ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', "&dMap: &l " + Cache.currentArena.getName())
            );
            map.setScore(3);```

Here comes the Problem

[remote swallow]

use fastboard

https://github.com/MrMicky-FR/FastBoard

[remote swallow]

just do a null check on it, as when the player instance is gc'd the reference is removed, idk if its the entire value goes to null or just the getter for it

[worthy moat]

bruh ok

[remote swallow]

fast board will make ur life easier

[twin venture]

that's what did you meant right?

[remote swallow]

yeah

[zenith gate]

Do entities have something similiar to CustomModelData like ItemStacks do?

[tender shard]

no

[twin venture]

what would this be any diffrence?

[remote swallow]

if anything you want to block on the async pre join, this ensures your data will be loaded

[tender shard]

wdym "getConfig()" doesnt work?

[zenith gate]

Any way to distinguish an entity from another?

[tender shard]

visually?

[twin venture]

Great let me try it out 😄

[zenith gate]

yes

[tender shard]

i don't think so

[remote swallow]

you cant have a static method in an inner class

[zenith gate]

like could a texturepack change their visuals based off of their name?

[remote swallow]

remove the static keyword

[tender shard]

ofc you can

[remote swallow]

thats not java 8

[tender shard]

getConfig() is an instance method

[zenith gate]

or through their PDA of some sorts.

[twin venture]

the thing is EpicEbic its loading the data when moved to the SERVER [B] faster than its saving it on server A (the server you were teleported from). .

[remote swallow]

might wanna block on quit instead

[twin venture]

block?

[remote swallow]

smh

when you do io on the main thread it pauses it, thats why you do sql and stuff async

[tender shard]

it is

[remote swallow]

if you block when they quit they wont move untill the save is done

[remote swallow]

something fucked up on there end then

[remote swallow]

you might honestly be worth making a bungee api, that stores data there and it only saves it to db when they fully leave the proxy

im pretty sure bungee knows when they quit proxy, or change server

could probably mix in redis pubsub

[twin venture]

the current code didn't work .

not sure if iam doing something wrong :

[remote swallow]

no need for the future

didnt realise u had task chain

[tender shard]

you could have a table that keeps record of whether a player is "still online" on any server, then only load the data when this is set to false again or sth. or use redis or sth for that

[twin venture]

so i don't need the taskchain?

[remote swallow]

use taskchain

just avoid doing most sql or stuff with bukkits async

[twin venture]

this is the requestConnection method :

[twin venture]

iam not

[tender shard]

try setInvulnerable

or do you mean the visual fire effect?

[twin venture]

so how would i want it to work :

• Player select quests in the lobby server

• Player go play bedwars or smth , finish a quest -> update it in mysql

• Player is sent back to lobby to play another game or smth , and his data is loaded there

[remote swallow]

load data on bungee and give it to servers as requested with redis pubsub

[twin venture]

alright thank

[remote swallow]

then you dont save it and load it most likely on the same machine within millis

[twin venture]

never used redis before , do you have a tutorial or something i can read to learn it?

[twin venture]

iam ..

same database , same plugin version , same server version

[tender shard]

https://www.baeldung.com/spring-data-redis-pub-sub

[remote swallow]

havent touched redis compleletly myself, but take a look at this https://github.com/mfnalex/PlayerDataAPI/tree/master/playerdataapi-core

[timid hedge]

Anyone?

[remote swallow]

thats what you can work to avoid

[twin venture]

without a proxy in the way it works just fine :
join server A -> select quest -> leave -> join server B -> I found the data there .

[tender shard]

dude what is this

1. you didn't call setDescription if it's not there
2. ever heard of String.join?

[remote swallow]

[tender shard]

this hurts 🥲

[remote swallow]

why is that even mutliple strings

you can do it in 1 string

String deathMessage = "Line 1 \n" + 
      "line 2 \n"

[tender shard]

String myString = "hello\n"
  + "this is a string\n"
  + "...";

or just

        String myString = String.join(System.lineSeparator(), 
                "First line",
                "Second line",
                "Third line");

[zealous osprey]

When is \n not the line separator?

[remote swallow]

windows normally

windows sometimes wants \r\n for stuff

[zealous osprey]

weird

[tender shard]

when you use windows

[chrome beacon]

Java 15+ has text blocks

[twin venture]

So epicEbic about this .. it already saving correctly but with bungee or veloctiy it does not do that ..

bungeecord api + redis pubsub is the way to fix it ?

[tender shard]

granted, windows is the only thing still in use that doesn't use \n

[remote swallow]

it should fix most of ur issues (dont quote me)

[twin venture]

its alright i won't thanks how would the system works ?

[tender shard]

yeah but IIRC they use java 8

[remote swallow]

load data on the bungee join event, track it to their uuid, have an api or whatever that spigot plugins can call on to request specific data from bungee and the backend of that uses redis pubsub

[twin venture]

thanks for explaining ❤️ ..

[olive valve]

what is the default walk speed for a player?

[zealous osprey]

That? Or in blocks per second?

that, thanks!

[rare rover]

i got a question for y'all. I'm thinking of adding custom sounds to my server's texture pack but how would i play them? Since they wouldn't be apart of the bukkit api?

is there a way to play a sound with its name only?

i'm guessing

[tender shard]

playSound takes a string

[umbral ridge]

To be honest, I found this code in one of the long ass tutorials (1+ hours) and the guy explained every single thing, he wrote this, I just modified it a little but forgot to cache it, I did it now though thanks to 10 million people wanting me to do it xD

[umbral ridge]

Thanks!

Why would you use static though? Now I know

[umbral ridge]

It's always okay to suggest it 1 time, I'm perfectly fine with that. But when it's suggested 3..4 times then, it would piss off anyone lol, thanks though, I do understand what you mean and thats okay

[buoyant viper]

wish i had found it before i wrote my abomination lmao #help-development message

[fleet falcon]

damn

[umbral ridge]

You know your code the best xD But I don't think it's bad.. There is no such thing as a bad code. Just learning mistakes

[opaque scarab]

How can I get the texture string of a player?

[opaque scarab]

Some reason adding a texture to a player NPC through gameProfile.getProperties().put(“textures”, new Property(“textures”, texture, signature)); only adds the inner base texture without the overlay (if that’s what it’s called). Does anyone know how to fix this?

[gritty juniper]

Some any other place that doesn’t require me to have 20 posts beforehand? Is the a discord server for hiring people?

[tender shard]

you could hire me
other than that, no I dont know any discord servers for hiring people

[eternal oxide]

you didn't set/send the player meta

[opaque scarab]

How should I do this?

[opaque scarab]

I’m using the Mojang remappings btw

[tender shard]

why don't you use PlayerProfiles?

there's no need to use mojang's GameProfiles anymore

[eternal oxide]

ClientboundSetEntityDataPacket

if it's still called that

[opaque scarab]

Because I’m finding lousy, outdated tutorials

[opaque scarab]

I’d rather use PlayerProfiles, but don’t know how

[undone axle]

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

[tender shard]

        PlayerProfile profile = Bukkit.createPlayerProfile(UUID.randomUUID());
        PlayerTextures textures = profile.getTextures();
        textures.setSkin(someUrl);
        profile.setTextures(textures);

[eternal oxide]

yeah his issue is not with setting a texture, he's not got teh right data set to enable the second layer

the getEntityData().set(Player.DATA_PLAYER_MODE_CUSTOMISATION, (byte) 0xFF);

[opaque scarab]

How should I create a server player using a player profile?

[quaint mantle]

You could also just cache and uncache stuff with a plugin on your proxy with redis and make redis calls whenever you need the data. (using hset) and you should generally get data back in millis.

[twin venture]

thank you for explaining

[tender shard]

oh didnt know you need it for NMS stuff. yeah in that case you need a game profile, that's true

[opaque scarab]

I need to send an entity data packet? Shouldn’t it contain second layer data in the texture sent when the NPC is spawned in?

[eternal oxide]

second layer has to be enabled

[opaque scarab]

Oh, I see.

[opaque scarab]

How should I enable it?

I’m new to NMS

Well, I’ve done it off and on every so often. Not that much

[eternal oxide]

send that packet I posted above

but be sure you set the flag correctly in the data first

[opaque scarab]

What is a flag? Sorry, I’ve not experimented with changing entity data much.

[orchid trout]

tried googling it?

ok

[hazy parrot]

Idk what do you expect when asked that vague question in spigot server

we even don't know what wrapper are u using

or are u even using wrapper

[vapid verge]

is there a way to determine what caused the PlayerItemDamageEvent to trigger? Trying to have it where if a specific item, mining a specific block happens, then the damage event is cancelled. Looking through the docs doesn't seem to indicate a simple way to do this.

[tender shard]

you could listen to BlockBreakEvent, set a flag like "ignoreNextDamageEvent" to true, then in PlayerItemDamageEvent, if the flag is true, cancel the event, and set the flag to false again, or sth

[vapid verge]

Event driven code is still a little new to me. How would PlayerItemDamageEvent read the value from BlockBreakEvent?

[quaint mantle]

Because its the same item

[eternal oxide]

you'd probably have to flag what item it is as I guess it would be possible for an armor damage event to jump in the middle.

[tender shard]

    private boolean ignoreNextDamageEvent = false;
    
    @EventHandler
    public void onBlockBreak(BlockBreakEvent event) {
        if(/* player is using my custom item && is breaking my custom block */) {
            ignoreNextDamageEvent = true;
        }
    }
    
    @EventHandler
    public void onItemDamage(PlayerItemDamageEvent event) {
        if(ignoreNextDamageEvent) {
            event.setCancelled(true);
            ignoreNextDamageEvent = false;
        }
    }

something like this. Or maybe set the ignoreNextDamageEvent to false again automatically one tick later, in case for whatever reason the damage event isn't always called

[echo basalt]

I'd make that a set of player ids

because using a boolean can cause issues

[tender shard]

i don't think so

[vagrant stratus]

Any way to force and/or semi-force a top down view? 🤔

[echo basalt]

spectate an armorstand

pitch to -90

[umbral ridge]

Wouldn't there be navigation difficulties? 🤣

[echo basalt]

Why would there

[wet breach]

use hologram or particles and make the hologram large

can easily get a top down view that way 🙂

if you still need them to move around

[umbral ridge]

Did you get a cat yet

[vapid verge]

I have event listeners in different classes, overriding onCall. Let me back up and that may help with a good solution. I’m modifying so that when a certain block is mined, it causes 100 damage to be added. OnBlockBreak checks for the block being mined and the tool being used. After that, PlayerItemDamageEvent is called. I want the damage to apply regardless of it the item has unbreaking, so if unbreaking procc s, it has to account for the damage that wasn’t applied.

[wet breach]

no

it will cost me like $500 to get one 🙂

[umbral ridge]

they cost that much?

I though they were like ~ $80

[wet breach]

No, the place I rent requires a pet deposit before they will let me have a pet. But there is other things I need first

[umbral ridge]

Oh rightt 👀

[hybrid spoke]

adopting is free

[wet breach]

not always, but I know plenty of places where it doesn't cost much or is free

but that isn't why it will cost me $500 lmao

[eternal oxide]

a pet can be quite destructive if the owner isn't responsible. I can see a $500 being resonable, if they risk having to replace skirting boards/doors/flooring

[wet breach]

oh I am not complaining about it lol

seems more then reasonable to me

just I have other things I need before I put more money down is all 😛

[eternal oxide]

I just hope you have a good landlord who will give it back when teh time comes. Often they become different people once you decide to leave.

[wet breach]

its illegal for them to keep the deposit and if you take them to court they will automatically lose if they can't show proof of any damages and the repairs made. You will get double the amount back if they refuse to give up the deposit and in some states its triple

[eternal oxide]

nice

[wet breach]

in other words it would be in my benefit they try to keep it when they are not suppose to XD

[eternal oxide]

here in teh UK its not so

[tender shard]

my best friend's former landlord still owes her about 1000€ of deposit but she's too afraid to sue her about it so I guess the money is gone lol

[wet breach]

that is actually quite a bit

I would sue, especially since I always have pictures of when I lease and when I leave

[tender shard]

Yeah

[wet breach]

but there is plenty of stuff though that the land lord simply can't keep the money for. For example painting

in the majority of states the land lord is actually required to paint between tenant leasing anyways, therefore they can't charge you for this

carpet, if its 3-5 years old already, they can't charge you for anything in regards to it because its considered wear and tear

[tender shard]

I am lucky that my landlord is my best friend‘s mother so she‘s quite friendly and doesnt try to do weird things

[wet breach]

Blinds are the same as well and basically everything in the unit has a wear and tear factor associated. Meaning they could only keep the deposit for something that would be unusual. Like putting a hole in the floor for example. That isn't really something that happens with wear and tear or big holes in the wall or maybe some broken windows

[tender shard]

Yeah everything that „degrades over time“ is usually the landlord‘s problem

Send the „player is sleeping“ packet

Idk which one it is exactly

[wet breach]

just send some random packets

until it works

[tender shard]

Probably something with EntityMetaData or sth with that in the name

[wet breach]

yeah, here that is pretty much the case unless the can show that something is broken when it shouldn't be

like if the fridge was brand new when you moved in, and now its not working anymore

XD

but it depends on how many years too, but lets say 1 year lease

that fridge should still be working lmao

and at the very least why wasn't the landlord notified

also, of note there is a lot of things that are landlords responsibility to repair. And the landlord can't increase your rent for it, except between lease renewals and you can withhold a portion of rent or all of it if they don't make repairs within a reasonable amount of time. Now that isn't to say they are not owed that rent, just don't have to give them what is owed until they fix problems

https://nms.screamingsandals.org/1.19.2/net/minecraft/world/entity/Pose.html (Pose.SLEEPING)

you defeinitely need these 2 things

[wet breach]

Also, if you don't want to wait for land lord to fix it, you can fix it yourself and charge the land lord for it. However this is only possible if the land lord is taking an unusual amount of time to repair it, or you have at the very least notified them of the issue

[shadow owl]

Say I want to have an item that makes players run faster when holding it. Should I edit the player's GENERIC_MOVEMENT_SPEED (https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/attribute/Attribute.html#GENERIC_MOVEMENT_SPEED) attribute or should I use setWalkSpeed (https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#setWalkSpeed(float))?

I'd imagine attribute modifiers?

Wait, can attribute modifier be applied to player attributes? I don't see that as a thing

Sure, but I want it to affect the user even if they have speed or other things changing their walkspeed value

Ideally it'll just multiply their speed by 1.25x while active or something

[random kestrel]

how could i possibly set up the 1.7.10 spigot/bukkit? i want to do it with intellij community

[delicate lynx]

1.7.10 😭

[shadow owl]

I feel like this gets messy if other plugins are modifying walkspeed though, eg: if I apply my 1.25x multiplier, then they get slowed down (by something idk) and then I remove my 1.25x multiplier it may not be the same value. I feel like it'd be much cleaner if I could us attribute modifiers

[river oracle]

wtf

you don't you upgrade

atleast 1.8.8 my man

and that's saying a lot

1.7.10 still has log4j exploit xD wait I wonder how many 1.7 servers have that patched it'd be fun to go back and try xD

[random kestrel]

if all of you just want to say "why don't you upgrade" or do a "crying emoji" then do leave, i just want to do plugins for 1.7.10, i don't want to upgrade.

If it's not usable anymore then just tell me, don't say "why not upgrade"

[buoyant viper]

its not that its... not usable... but why work with such an old version?

you could save a lot of headaches by using the latest version (or at the very least, like 1.16)

[river oracle]

I mean you coulddd use it, its just you're opening a box of security vulnerabilities I doubt you could patch

this method works before every page change and when the menu is closed

if i learnt 1.16, would the learning still serve for 1.7.10?

[ivory sleet]

Last time I used one of those softwares it didn’t take long until production broke but they’re cool projects

[buoyant viper]

API-wise, maybe

NMS-wise, not at all

[random kestrel]

i don't know what is nms

[river oracle]

mohist also provides patched jars without permissions of plugins and blames the plugins (essentials)

[buoyant viper]

internals, net.minecraft.server stuff :P

[river oracle]

definitely not

[buoyant viper]

nah?

[ivory sleet]

Oh what a great start 😬

[river oracle]

I mean think of all the convient shit we have now we didn't have back then

[buoyant viper]

true

[random kestrel]

so basically if i learnt 1.16 i wouldn't know how to use 1.7.10?

[river oracle]

I mean it woulda kinda transition over, but there's no point

just code a server sided mod with forge

it'll be way easier

[random kestrel]

thats not what i meant

[ivory sleet]

Not entirely true

[random kestrel]

but

ok

[river oracle]

if you want mods, and plugins, don't do that, just use mods

[random kestrel]

i'm really confused right now

[random kestrel]

?

[ivory sleet]

But its like if you if u code on the modern web, would you know how to code on the web infrastructure we used 10-20 years ago?

Probably not

A lot of things have changed for the better

[random kestrel]

idrk what to do, i want to make plugins for both 1.7.10 and 1.16 (and up)

[river oracle]

drop 1.7.10 support work with only 1.18.2+ at minimum

[ivory sleet]

1.7.10 sounds like a big one of those “shooting yourself in the feet” moments

[river oracle]

only 8% of servers run 1.8, and even less run 1.7.10 over 85% of servers run 1.18.2+

[random kestrel]

oh i also want to mess with the nbt from a mod thats 1.7.10 (or something like that)

nvm, i should probably do as you sai

d

just create a serversided mod

[placid moss]

thats just a plugin?

are you doing mod dev or plugin dev lmao

[buoyant viper]

its like Ghostbusters, dont cross streams.

hybrid servers are a mess of two independent codebases hacked together

if youre gonna work on Forge modded servers, its better to just make a Forge server-side mod

no matter what version of minecraft ur using

[tender shard]

my shit's names are too descriptive. i think I'll rename CustomBlockData to Paschinski, and MorePersistentDataTypes to Koslowski.

I'd recommend a more recent version but it would work yes

1.16.5 is java 16 i think

I'd use that version

Its more stable and has more features

[placid moss]

no streams or lambdas in java 8

[delicate lynx]

lambdas 😭

[rare rover]

I dont get why people dont like lambdas

I kinda like em

[ivory sleet]

I think that’s java 7? 😅

[young knoll]

Yeah that’s 7

8 has streams and lambdas

[rare rover]

Ye

[ivory sleet]

Indeed

Compiles to invoke dynamic

So very fast

[tender shard]

8 was the version that added both

[tender shard]

1.16 is java 8, 1.17 is java 16, 1.18+ is java 17

[placid moss]

got confused rip

[ivory sleet]

na all good, same honestly

We’ve been feasting on it for so long its easy to mix it up

[rare rover]

Oh 1.17 is when they switched? I keep thinking it was 1.13 🤦‍♂️

[opaque scarab]

I'm trying to make a player NPC show its skin outer texture layer. The player spawns with the skin, yet still doesn't show the outer layer

SynchedEntityData entityData = npc.getEntityData();
entityData.set(npc.DATA_PLAYER_MODE_CUSTOMISATION, (byte) 0xFF);
List<SynchedEntityData.DataValue<?>> valueList = entityData.packDirty();

ClientboundSetEntityDataPacket entityDataPacket = new ClientboundSetEntityDataPacket(entityID, valueList);
connection.send(infoPacket);
connection.send(addPlayerPacket);
connection.send(entityDataPacket);```

[ivory sleet]

Tbh there are good reasons why one wouldn’t wanna use streams or lambdas

to avoid nested lambdas one has to adhere to the monad pattern

And just that adds complexity to ur code

[young knoll]

One of these days conclure could just start making up patterns

[ivory sleet]

Moreover streams aren’t that pure as they seem, there is a lot going on under the hood

[young knoll]

And I would never notice

[tender shard]

I bet he already does that

But nobody dares to say anything

[ivory sleet]

Lmao 🤣

[wet breach]

I wish more would understand this

[tender shard]

Everyone just silently nods to not show up as stupid

[rare rover]

Oh yeah ik, I've rarely used streams

[young knoll]

Inb4 monad pattern isn’t real

[wet breach]

you probably have used them before without realizing

[ivory sleet]

My biggest fear roflmao

[tender shard]

Ah yes, the vacuum pattern. Ofc i heard of it

[ivory sleet]

lol

[wet breach]

streams have existed even before lambda was really a thing in Java

[tender shard]

Java 22 will finally add rivers and oceans too

[wet breach]

ah yes to complete the collection

[tender shard]

Yeah lol

[buoyant viper]

yes

[rare rover]

No way

W java 22

[tender shard]

NoteblockAPI still uses java 7

[buoyant viper]

Collections u say?

[young knoll]

When do we get the more advanced stuff

[ivory sleet]

Java 23 aims to add hydro accelerated patterns to implant a bombastic side eye principle on the moon 🤡

[young knoll]

Like oxbow lakes

[buoyant viper]

https://tenor.com/view/side-eye-dog-suspicious-look-suspicious-doubt-dog-doubt-gif-23680990

bomBASTIC side eye....

[ivory sleet]

Probably just me who laughed, im goofy

[wet breach]

lol

[sick ermine]

Can you help me

[ivory sleet]

Ask away

(:

[sick ermine]

O am coding a playervaults plugin, but the items will be sorted in order. For this I save the items by page and sort them in order but there are a few dupe issues
This item is on page 2
1st page has gaps
so he puts it in the spaces
but those items are still on page 2
how do i fix this

[vivid cave]

I see a lot of people use a bunch of APIs but frankly it's often just for a couple of actions they could achieve with nms or sometimes natively. So what does API really stand for ? Abscense of Programming Intellect ?

[sick ermine]

    private void storeItems() {
        List<PlayerVaultItem> playerVaultItems = playerVault.getItems().getOrDefault(currentPage, new ArrayList<>());
        playerVault.getItems().remove(currentPage);
        playerVaultItems.forEach(playerVaultItem -> PlayerVaultPlugin.getInstance().getDatabaseManager().getPlayerVaultItemRepository().delete(playerVaultItem).join());
        playerVaultItems.clear();
        for (int i = 0; i < PlayerVaultPlugin.getInstance().getConfig().getIntegerList("gui.paginated-slots").size(); i++) {
            int slot = PlayerVaultPlugin.getInstance().getConfig().getIntegerList("gui.paginated-slots").get(i);
            ItemStack itemStack = getInventory().getItem(slot);
            if (itemStack == null || itemStack.getType().equals(Material.AIR)) continue;
            PlayerVaultItem playerVaultItem = new PlayerVaultItem(player.getUniqueId(), playerVault.getVault().getId(), currentPage,
                    BukkitSerialization.itemStackToBase64(itemStack));
            playerVaultItems.add(playerVaultItem);
        }
        if (playerVaultItems.isEmpty()) return;
        playerVault.setPlayerVaultItems(currentPage, playerVaultItems);
        playerVault.save();
    }```

this method works before every page change and when the menu is closed

[ivory sleet]

Application programming interface

[tender shard]

it's called "not reinventing the wheel"

[ivory sleet]

But yes koalexis I’ll give you a short history lesson

Go back some years and the amount of features spigot had in its api was way less

Thus so many apis and libraries were created to provide features that were missing

Often this required to at some point reference nms, and just doing that is somewhat effort taking since you gotta setup up the project environment, write good code, maintain and so on

This is partly why people just use apis from applications as well as frameworks and libraries, features might not be available from whatever stuff you’re using so then its just too perfect someone else has written exactly what you need

There is also another term thats good to know called ABI

Which stands for application binary interface

And has more to do with the binary compatibility of an application interface

[young knoll]

Don’t forget about ABBA

[ivory sleet]

[tender shard]

interesting blog post in case someone is bored -> https://www.morling.dev/blog/refining-return-type-java-methods-without-breaking-backwards-compatibility/

[buoyant viper]

convenience

[buoyant viper]

i wonder if @worldly ingot could utilize this for integrating Components to Bukkit rather than .Spigot

[worldly ingot]

Looks like it's taking advantage of types that are similar to one another, so probably not

[young knoll]

Plus we aren’t changing return types in that, are we?

[worldly ingot]

Correct

We don't want to remove the string methods

[young knoll]

We are making a new method with a different return type

Just uhh, make the component methods take a parameter that does nothing

And have people pass null

10/10 best api design

[buoyant viper]

return Object

take in a parameter that lets u choose the return

and have a zero-parameter version that returns String for backwards compat

[young knoll]

I mean that could work

With generics

But still kinda eh

Up to @worldly ingot ig

[buoyant viper]

it would work, but at what cost?

looking a bit Fugly

[young knoll]

Both options are kinda fugly

[buoyant viper]

there is only one option, Removal!

[young knoll]

You don’t get strings or components

Cry about it

[buoyant viper]

True

[echo basalt]

damn I love how even after years of experience with packets and nms half my shit doesn't work

[buoyant viper]

coding 👍

[flint coyote]

While I still have some bugs in more complicated functions I do notice a huge decline in issues after long coding sessions. It ain't a rare case anymore that after 3 hours of coding everything works first try. That's generally coding related, not packets/nms related. 1-2 years prior it was pretty rare to have no bugs after coding for hours

Therefore I learn a lot less from "basic tasks" which is a little sad. A fair tradeoff I'd say

Long story short: "Half my shit doesn't work" is a long lasting friendship but at some point you lose contact

[rare rover]

this seems like very messy code with all the appends

how could i improve it

i mean ig i could not use a StringBuilder

but

meh

[flint coyote]

other than moving the string build parts to seperate functions to clear up a bit I don't think there's a lot you can do

I wouldn't say it's that messy either. Have seen worse

[worldly ingot]

You really don't have to use a string builder here

[rare rover]

yeah

that's what i was thinking

[worldly ingot]

You're not getting much benefit out of it anyways

[lavish musk]

Mc ver: 1.20.1
hello every1
I am making a plugin that if or if it loads after another, the issue is that with depend on plugin.yml is not working because the plugin is injected by another which downloads that plugin I need any idea or I rethink otherwise the code?

[rare rover]

so just do this

now this looks considerably better to me

[flint coyote]

When not using a loop to build a complicated string this is the cleaner way, yes. As Choco already stated it will barely change anything performancewise

[rare rover]

alr

ima have to split all this up into different classes to follow SOLID

since this class is doing way more things than 1

but

[flint coyote]

I don't fully understand your problem. So you have a plugin that loads plugins on demand. Do you want the loaded plugins to depend on the plugin that loads them?

[lavish musk]

Something like this, the plugin depends on the dependencies that come with the downloaded plugin

[flint coyote]

If the plugin that loads those plugins loads first, can't it download and initialize the other plugins before the one that requires them as dependencies loads?

[humble lynx]

I'm trying to display frozen hearts onto the player. So far I've tried both
player.setFreezeTicks(100);
player.lockFreezeTicks(true); (This just locks the frozen effect on the side of the screen really).
Anyone have any ideas how to display the frozen heart effect?

[flint coyote]

is 100 equal or more than maxFreezeTicks?

[young knoll]

No

[flint coyote]

I'd guess you don't get those hearts before being fully frozen

[young knoll]

You need moar powah

[rare rover]

if im wanting to return 2 values in 1 method should i use a map or something?

[humble lynx]

Ah, I see

[rare rover]

since i dont wanna loop the inventory twice

[young knoll]

Make some kind of data class to hold them both

[flint coyote]

You either define an object or you can use an Entry or Pair

[humble lynx]

So can't instantly set freezing, have to wait the minecraft default time

[flint coyote]

no you just set the freezing ticks to maxfreezingticks. 100 is not enough

[humble lynx]

It's 5 seconds, and default freeze time is 7 seconds?

[flint coyote]

Then use 7 seconds?

Or just use the getMaxFreezeTicks() function

[rare rover]

hmm

so like this

@Getter protected static final ImmutableMap<Material, Integer> sellableItems = ImmutableMap.of(
            Material.WHEAT, 25
    );

    @Override
    public Pair<Double, Integer> calculate(Player player) {
        Inventory inventory = player.getInventory();
        double amount = 0;
        int itemAmount = 0;
        for (Material material : sellableItems.keySet()) {
            for (ItemStack contents : inventory.getContents()) {
                if (contents != null && contents.getType().equals(material)) {
                    amount += contents.getAmount() * sellableItems.get(material);
                    itemAmount += contents.getAmount();
                    inventory.remove(contents);
                }
            }
        }
        return Pair.of(amount, itemAmount);
    }```?

[humble lynx]

I'll test it out, but if I'm still needing to wait 7 seconds then there really isn't a point to max freeze ticks

[flint coyote]

Yes that would work. Usually you would still create a little record for that matter since you can give it a reasonable name. That's up to you though

[flint coyote]

When you set it to maxfreezeticks I would expect you to not be required to wait longer.

[rare rover]

alr well if that's all

[humble lynx]

Interestingly enough, 200 fixes it o-o

[rare rover]

i made the method into just

which looks 1000x better

imo

[flint coyote]

because it's over the max so he's fully frozen

[humble lynx]

ah, max being 140 I'm assuming

i'm so dumb

[flint coyote]

that's why you just set it to what maximum returns

[humble lynx]

yeah, i was assuming it was like fire ticks

[flint coyote]

then even if another plugin for whatever reason increased it, you'll be fine

[humble lynx]

where it's a duration that lasts after the player leaves the area of effect

[flint coyote]

It will slowly decrease when leaving but the damage will stop as soon as it's below max

[young knoll]

max is a poor name

[lavish musk]

If anyone was interested I already solved it, Paper has a class called ModernPluginLoadingStrategy which at least in my case interfered with me, I tried with pure Spigot and no problem.

[young knoll]

It actually was a hard cap at first until I yelled at MD about it :p

[flint coyote]

Now everyone named Max will be sad

[flint coyote]

well in that case the name was reasonable

[young knoll]

Yes but it meant you couldn’t make players take freeze damage :p

[quaint mantle]

If one was implementing a lang file how would you go about it, managing replacements ect

[humble lynx]

yeah, i eventually changed it to max and it didn't work, so just reverted back to 200

[quaint mantle]

I can't decide on how I want to execute it

[flint coyote]

for max he would have to be inside powdered snow

otherwise you'll have to take max + ticks you want the effect to stay

[humble lynx]

and it would tick down instantly if they weren't, right

ah yea

[wet breach]

You would typically follow i18n standards

[quaint mantle]

I mean handling replacements like <player> ect

My goal is to mostly make configurable messages not so much language configuraton

[wet breach]

But you said a lang file

[young knoll]

Just use a standard placeholder string

[wet breach]

^

[young knoll]

Like {player} or %player%

[quaint mantle]

Well idk thats what we always call it when i do stuff like that

I mean should I write abstraction instead of spamming .replace

[young knoll]

Probably

[wet breach]

Well now you know its not a lang file lol

[quaint mantle]

yes what should it be called then

[young knoll]

If you are going to deal with more than a few replacements I would write some abstraction

[quaint mantle]

Do you have any idea of what the usage for it would be, im not quite sure how I want to use the abstraction

[wet breach]

Text or message file etc. Cause lang file typically means you want to setup translations etc lol

[flint coyote]

what if you want translations that include placeholders

[wet breach]

That is what the i18n standard dictates

[flint coyote]

So you'd still end up with a bunch of .replace()

[quaint mantle]

I was thinking about using Minimessage and utilizing this but I fail to see the value of using these dynamic replacements

https://docs.advntr.dev/minimessage/dynamic-replacements.html

[wet breach]

If you go that route. Its not the only way to do it

[flint coyote]

Probably the easiest way. Dunno if there's another way that's both readable and not performing too bad

[wet breach]

There is

[young knoll]

Whatever placeholder api does

[wet breach]

But replace is the easiest

[quaint mantle]

Its just ugly af

I was thinking about using an enum or smth but im not sure

[worldly ingot]

I recommend just %s and %1$s

Or {} and {1} if you want a less Java-specific option

[young knoll]

Yes but that’s ugly for end users

[worldly ingot]

And end user that's willing to edit the language file can pretty easily determine what %s replaces

"Gave an apple to %s"
"Okay, %s must be the player name"

[young knoll]

Fair

[worldly ingot]

Also also, Minecraft uses this exact same formatting in their language files

[quaint mantle]

But what about when u have multiple placeholders and want them to be able to change the order

Ex.

%player% has killed %target%

%target% has killed %player%

[worldly ingot]

That's what %1$s does

[quaint mantle]

ohh

[worldly ingot]

1 = first placeholder, 2 = second placeholder, etc.

[young knoll]

(Or {0} {1})

[worldly ingot]

Right

[young knoll]

That’s what I use because lazy

[worldly ingot]

That's the C# and C++ formatters if I'm remembering correctly

Or perhaps just C#

[young knoll]

It’s also usable in java

And I find it easier to read than %1$s

[worldly ingot]

fs

[young knoll]

Wut

[worldly ingot]

for sure

[quaint mantle]

https://bytebin.lucko.me/KhOzMIhrPz

What do you think about this type of thing for messages?

I haven't implement replacements just kinda drafted this

whoops i messed up the get function but ye

[young knoll]

FS can mean too many thinks

Fuck sake, for sure, filesystem

Oh no Kotlin

I cannot give opinions for I have no idea what is happening

[rare rover]

Lol

How would one figure out good names for your classes/ interfaces. I follow all the java naming conventions but have a hard time getting the right name of them

[quaint mantle]

Usage is Messages.Gang.NO_PERMISSION.get()

[rare rover]

Any tips?

[quaint mantle]

I dont like having the get function but i dont think there is a way to make the NO_PERMISSION be a string on its own but figures

[small current]

Thats a good idea
The connections had problems all over iran yesterday

[compact haven]

@quaint mantle I mean you can add the operator fun get to Gang and Server so you have

Messages[Messages.Gang.NO_PERMISSION]

idk

[quaint mantle]

Yeah ig

[river oracle]

I wish there was a nice way to get the Component API out from under the Spigot tags. I don't like the spigot() solution, but also deprecating String methods isn't the way to go either. Spigot just seems like the best way without compromising on consistent naming

[buoyant viper]

yeah :v

getting them out of spigots namespace would be poggers

[quaint mantle]

  Messages.Gang.NO_PERMISSION.runReplacements(
        Replacement("player", "Nopox")
    )

Alright guys how is this to use?

[young knoll]

Deprecation has nothing to do with it, the problem is the naming

You can’t have 2 methods with the same name and parameters

And getCustomNameComponent looks dumb

[river oracle]

Ik that I was just kinda talking about the paper approach

[wet breach]

If only java considered return type part of the signature we could have this but with different return types lol

[upper hazel]

who knows why the armmorstand does not update its position in the stream if the player is sitting on it

[grizzled oasis]

im trying making a way to spawn particle in a range selected by the player, how can i do it?

[wet breach]

Depends on what stream you are using, but it could be due to not having an updated reference

[wet breach]

Pretty vague. There is a spawn particle method

But you could take values in from a command of how far away

[grizzled oasis]

in a random range i mean

[upper hazel]

runTaskTimer

[wet breach]

Runtasktimer isnt a stream

[upper hazel]

lol

[wet breach]

That is a task. So it could be then you want to use futures

[young knoll]

Are you teleporting it

[upper hazel]

what ?? all bukit task not stream??

ea

[young knoll]

I don’t think teleporting entities with player passengers works to well

[wet breach]

You have to dismount the player teleport both then remount

Passengers do not automatically teleport with the entity especially more so players

The best way to do it in a seemless fashion is to not teleport the entity

[upper hazel]

Well, apparently, every time you also have to put the player on an armor stand

[wet breach]

How you do that is you would spawn the entity at a location. Dismount player teleport and mount on new entity as its already there and then kill the old entity

[upper hazel]

end how? velocity?

[upper hazel]

it looks like a teleport

[wet breach]

Reason that works better is because you are not waiting on both to teleport at same time because there is times where they wont. So just having a new entity there ahead of time prevents that issue

[upper hazel]

oh i see

it's a teleport but better huh?

[wet breach]

Well the entity isnt teleporting just the player

So instead of trying to sync up teleports you just dont. Since you can just duplicate the entity lol

[upper hazel]

I generally need this for 2 saddle horses, but I don’t know other options

[cobalt thorn]

Hi, with breakNaturally you can't take the item drops, there's another method were the block are like being broken by the player but instantly?

[upper hazel]

hey addon can use in server?
