I keep getting this error : "org.bukkit.plugin.InvalidPluginException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Plugin already initialized!" because i'm initializing the plugin twice, how do I not
That was my question
wraith apex
Starting again from a clean slate, my point, put simply is yes for the vast amount of variables encapsulation is great. But there are edge cases where its more annoying than useful. In a usecase where you're developing a plugin for personal use and are going to use it with other plugins, the likley hood another plugin dev who has never heard of your plugin, attempting to disable and cripple it is almost 0. At that point it's malware and shouldn't even be on spigot. Race conditions yes. If you're threading then it's very dumb to not use it. If I wanted to protect my variables from invalid write or read requests I'd be on it all day. Nothing is perfect. I could bypass the method with reflection and set it to null if I wanted. Or some JVM trickery. It's not going to kill someone if the instance of the main plugin is public. That's all.

I think it may be fine for certain singletons, esp if they are eager ones

If a getter's only purpose for the variable is supervises is to provide the variable and there is no other validation logic, or threading, I don't see why it needs a getter
barren nacelle

I'll use dependency injection
ivory sleet
the issue is that you rarely know if a getter's only purpose is ever going to be that of a vessel just acting as a bridge to the field invocation
i mean sure we can assume that
but that also presupposed that we never use that class in a situation where it is exposed to situations that may widen its usecase

does your plugin just yoink incoming chat messages and put them through a relay server somehow, or?

does your plugin just yoink incoming chat messages and put them through a relay ...
it yoinks them from the AsyncChatEvent
cancels the chat event
and sends them through the server
as if it's a server message
prime reef
always think it's neat when a plugin just completely disregards spigot/minecraft conventions and does something else
wraith apex
can't report the server for cussing π
prime reef
is that a workaround for the MS stuff?

kind of insane that they did that in the first place tbh

to disable chat auth

wraith apex
the only 'good' way to have a plugin that cannot be pirated
wraith apex
is a plugin that makes calls to another server that actually has the code on it
the plugin you buy is a skeleton plugin
and needs a license key
prime reef
yeah that's one way to go about it, i don't really know how feasible that would be for a particularly demanding plugin
for something with minimal throughput, though? for sure
the native/dll approach could actually work to some extent
use native code for anything related to actual performance and treat java as a glorified schema/config loader

dispenser is weird
it fires but nothing comes out
which is fine I guess
prime reef
it's also easy to check a regular quadrilateral for whether a specific tile falls into its boundaries
or any rectangular prism, if your claims work in 3 dimensions
if you want to start doing stuff like convex hull claims it's more complicated
wraith apex
each chunk I can check relative from 0,0 to 15,15
prime reef
especially if you move into three dimensions
prime reef
it fires but nothing comes out
no dispenser cancel event?
wraith apex
no dispenser cancel event?
that's what it is when it gets cancelled lol
prime reef
weird that it still fires
probably just a spigot issue but if it isn't functionally firing that's fine ig
wraith apex
yeah no the item stays in
which is good
but it still makes a sound
fun thing about observers though
you have to check that the pulse they get is not from an illegally powered block
like say a noteblock
redstone would set off the noteblock which would set off the observer
redstone is outside the claim so it should be not allowed to power it
this is a headache
don't get me started on the bs with checking for entities landing, being thrown into or interacting in a claim
ender pearls, snow balls, eggs, boats, armour stands being pushed in etc.
on the bright side, my land claim plugin mechanic does have one thing that a lot of players will love
I dub it the YEET mechanic
you can YEET unwanted players out of your claimed area
automatically ofc
prime reef

oh? what did they do?
prime reef
most relevant one is gonna be marking inactive chunks
and only reactivating them if anything happens in an adjacent chunk or something happens that affects the inactive chunk
noita's a bit different since it uses a cellular automata-based engine (it's a falling sand game)
prime reef
but I employed something similar for a plugin I threw in with turrets
chunk grid is 2d, tbf
wraith apex
yeah it is
it's more so how fast can the server load a chunk
to let a projectile continue
prime reef
but I employed something similar for a plugin I threw in with turrets
prototyped this by basically flagging turrets as active/inactive based on nearby chunk activity since they do have their own update thread
seems to work
prime reef
nah, more like
turrets aren't tied to anything specific, so by default they wouldn't care what the status of their current chunk is
their update logic is in the spigot thread
meaning that if a server has a thousand turrets, but only two people are online and so only like 50 of those turrets are actually active, all 1000 will still update every tick
not great
so it p much just cycles turrets into/out of an update pool based on which chunks are loaded
but i have no way to test this organically and I wrote the plugin itself in 30 minutes so
wraith apex

Hello! Im pretty new, and Ive been twisting my head on smn thats probably really simple. Does anyone know if there is a plugin (or how to make one) that will track the position (coordinates) of an arrow that is in flight? all i need is for it to track the position from when its fired to when it lands so i can then model it as a cuadratic equation (ive removed drag and randomness). Please ive been really stuck so any help is appreciated. Thanks!!
echo basalt
yeah it's not hard to make
prime reef
tbh you don't really need to track the arrow, either
wraith apex
and then once you have it sample the x,y,z coords of the projectile as fast as you want (up to 20 per second)
you can just keep printing out the x,y,z values
possibly even the yaw and pitch
prime reef
you can extrapolate the arrow's trajectory solely from the launch event given the direction and velocity
wraith apex
prime reef
and the weirdly specific number of how much gravity affects arrows
wraith apex
hit event is when arrow/projectile has hit something so it will stop moving
prime reef
^ this fires on hitting an entity or block btw
if you want the "real" trajectory of the arrow, then def use this too
wraith apex
I'm thinking these 2 events + a bukkit clock to sample the projectile
clock will start then the projectile is launched and it will stop when it hits something
prime reef
you could also just use system time
which is TPS agnostic
I'm probably overthinking though
okay yeah arrows are subject to 20m/s^2 of downward acceleration due to gravity
that's some powerful gravity
wraith apex
I just mean the arrow is not going to move in less than a 20th of a second
prime reef
oh yeah, it's not
wraith apex
since the server has to move the arrow :p
prime reef
now, if you use my implementation, it will
wraith apex
xD
prime reef
(don't use my implementation, it's bad for you)
prime reef
my implementation basically raycasts
wraith apex
mmm raycasts
prime reef
and wraps it up neatly
wraith apex
I love raycasts
prime reef
default mc projectiles behave so badly on servers
wraith apex
ah yes the arrow comes up directly behind me, stops, I step to one side, and then it zooms past at mac 12 exploding an entire mountain before getting glitched in a mob
prime reef
being on fire is basically free iframes
and because of how global no damage ticks are, well, global, you can't disable them without turning fire/lava into an instant death sentence lmao
i mean you can, but that requires some fuckery
better to just offload projectile hits to a more reliable method
young knoll
I see no problem with getting instantly melted in lava
wraith apex
anyone else here really fucking hate the death event?
prime reef
anyway, we're wildly off track, @full gull let us know if you need further assistance lmao
prime reef
anyone else here really fucking hate the death event?
i hate it specifically because there's no kill event
wraith apex
death event does not even tell you WHO killed you
it just like you ded

young knoll

prime reef
it didn't for years
young knoll
Since player has getKiller
wraith apex
aye aye but that's not intuitive
prime reef
And yeah it still doesn't work for mobs, which makes pve-centric plugins kind of a pain still
wraith apex
I expect that to be in the event
prime reef

wraith apex
the event itself I expect to have methods relating to what just happened
prime reef
I p much just threw in a death event that fires when an entity takes fatal damage

ye
wraith apex
cool
so how do you input arguments?
those 2 arguments I assume you need to create in advance?
wraith apex
Ah ok
young knoll
Is that hardcoded to the last arg
echo basalt
uhh
young knoll
Or does CommandContext have a stack
echo basalt
it's like a mutable thing
Because some arguments need others I build from start -> finish
So /test 123 abc 456
makes a mutable command context with full input as "test 123 abc 456" and then I parse each node with "last input" being the word I'm parsing
So the later nodes have context of the early nodes
under a single object
bit messy

I'm trying to create a custom mob and I've reached an issue where I can't use this.setCustomName() since it requires a Component, I tried using TextComponent
this.setCustomName(new TextComponent(ChatColor.GREEN + "MyEntity"));
But that didn't work it said needing (Component) not (TextComponent) I tried casting Component to it but that also didn't work

isnt there Component#text ?

I tried that, didn't find it

I'm just using spigot
I'm extending the Sheep class from net.minecraft.world.entity.animal.Sheep

There's only 1 that I can use

net.md_5.bungee.api.chat.TextComponent The only TextComponent I can use
tall dragon
does ChatComponentText exist?

I can't find any other that I can import
winter flower
does ``ChatComponentText`` exist?
Nope, I was first looking for that

but why don't you use spigot api to change the name of the mob?
worn tundra

winter flower
but why don't you use spigot api to change the name of the mob?
How would I do that?
vast ledge
entity. setCustomName()
winter flower
Alright I'll attempt that
vast ledge
and entity. setCustomNameVisible(true)
winter flower
and entity. setCustomNameVisible(true)
I did that using Sheep#setCustomNameVisible I just didn't expect Sheep#setCustomName to be such a roadblock
I also found a resource that says TextComponent should be an import from net.minecraft.network.chat.TextComponent which is why I'm confused how I'm missing it
vast ledge
TextComponent. fromLegacyText()
winter flower
not a function, the only one similar is toLegacyText which returns a String
also I think I found a fix
Component.literal(String)
So I'll leave it here incase anyone else faces that issue

upper hazel
can I use my api in another project via projectSettings -> models - Dependencies so that there is NO dependence on the location of the api on the PC?
or is the only way to use maven?
wet breach
can I use my api in another project via projectSettings -> models - Dependencies...
can you clarify what you mean?
I think you are confusing two different build systems that your IDE lets you use?
The location of the dependency is always a factor regardless of the build method used. Maven just handles this for you by making use of maven stuff
the build system your IDE most likely has built in that isn't maven is ANT
upper hazel
i want add api for my plugin
but but not using maven
add in local
or how this say
wet breach
ANT is more basic and requires you to fill in more details manually that maven would do at times automatically. Such as specifying the location of the dependency
upper hazel
I heard about 2 ways to add a dependency so I wanted to use method 2
load jar
or how this saying
wet breach
the easiest method to add an API into a project using ANT is to simply copy the sources for said api into the project under its own directory AKA package
hazy parrot
but but not using maven
Sorry to ask, but why not
wet breach
the other method is just ensuring the API is present in the same location as the plugin, meaning the plugin directory for the server
but as the above, I was going to recommend to just continue using maven as its just easier and really not much of a reason to avoid it unless you want to use gradle. ANT doesn't provide many things and isn't always easy to use without issues unless you know what you are doing. This is why things like maven and gradle came about
upper hazel
when I try to add a dependency through models in settings api becomes location dependent and I canβt use it on another PC
wet breach
the same will happen with maven and gradle if the API isn't accessible in a repository that the other PC has access to
so that means if the API is only in a local repository, you will get the same problem
twin venture
InventoryCloseEvent : the item that is on the Courser will be removed no matter what i do is there a fix for it
wet breach
best option is to make use of the windows file sharing or linux which ever you are using, and just transfer the api to that other pc
upper hazel
wait, if maven has the same problem, then using the api will depend on whether the server is connected to the Internet or not?
wet breach
optionally you could run a small http server to make your local repo accessible for those other pc's
wet breach
wait, if maven has the same problem, then using the api will depend on whether t...
well since you are referring to another pc, I assume its a pc in your home network
it would depend on whether the pc has appropriate connections to the other PC
upper hazel
but server can be localhost
in
if server in local host then how my project can search repository in internet
wet breach
the server has a built in lookup that looks to maven central for dependencies
if the dependency is not found on maven central it will fail, so it doesn't work for all dependencies
upper hazel
so this system use pc for coonect with site?
wet breach
well of course, that is how connections work in regards to software it isn't going to manifest its own system you know lol
so a localhost only pc that has no connection to the internet, it will obviously fail
fluid river
are you afraid of maven or smth?
upper hazel
so if i disconnect internen in my pc plugin not found repository
fluid river
so if i disconnect internen in my pc plugin not found repository
you just update your project once you filled in maven stuff
wet breach
that isn't their issue
fluid river
and then you can plug off the internet cable
upper hazel
wdym "you just update your project once you filled in maven stuff"
wet breach
so if i disconnect internen in my pc plugin not found repository
well for the server to find the dependency on maven central, it would need internet access, otherwise as I said it will fail. However, it will still fail if the depenency is not on maven central to begin with.
fluid river
fill pom.xml with data -> update dependencies -> dependency is installed locally now and you can use it even without internet access
wet breach
this is why many projects still provide the repositories or links for dependencies their projects require
because not all projects submit their stuff to be on maven central
upper hazel
fill pom.xml with data -> update dependencies -> dependency is installed locally...
model in project setting work same?
fluid river
idk which ide are you working in
upper hazel
intelji
wet breach
fill pom.xml with data -> update dependencies -> dependency is installed locally...
this isn't going to work unless the dependency in question is accessible in a repository. So that means for your own projects between 2 pc's this isn't going to work without some additional setup being needed
upper hazel
Well, judging by the attempt, it doesnβt work that way
fluid river
this isn't going to work unless the dependency in question is accessible in a re...
i mean you can depend on WG or spigot-api
that way
wet breach
sure because they have repositories that are accessible
fluid river
yeah ofc
upper hazel
Isnβt it possible to add a dependency so that it looks for api in the plugins folder on any PC?
wet breach
but 2 pcs on your home network though to have one that has the dependency the other not, this won't work and will not magically make your dependency move to the other pc π
fluid river
but after you do maven update you can work with that stuff even offline
that's what i'm trying to say
can't you just depend on .jar tho?
i mean it was possible in eclipse, at least
wet breach
Isnβt it possible to add a dependency so that it looks for api in the plugins fo...
this is default behavior of java. The first thing java will do when a jar has dependencies not in the jar, it will look in the directory the jar is in. But you will still need to provide a way for someone to have that dependency
fluid river
Install the dependency plugin on their server?)
@upper hazel what exactly are you trying to achieve?
upper hazel
but after you do maven update you can work with that stuff even offline
settings-> models-> dependency not work so ?
look - https://youtu.be/r7x4XRQsD6k?si=feIEuvtNH4NZJ9vI it adds a dependency not using maven and it won't work on another PC right?
fluid river
wdym on other pc
upper hazel
other server
fluid river
you need the same jar to be on another pc too
you just install the plugin you depend on
on this server
and it just worksβ’οΈ
- You have Plugin1 with API
- You have Plugin2
- You add Plugin1 as dependency to Plugin2
- You code stuff
- You install both Plugin1 and Plugin2 on the server's
pluginsfolder - You run the server
- KA-BOOM
upper hazel
you need the same jar to be on another pc too
api depends on its location, you confirmed this
he not use maven
so this not will worked if another person want use api
fluid river
api depends on its location, you confirmed this
I thought you want to code on 2 different computers, not use plugins on a server
wet breach
look - https://youtu.be/r7x4XRQsD6k?si=feIEuvtNH4NZJ9vI it adds a dependency not...
Most IDE's for java or at least the common ones that are used, use ANT as the default builder if you don't specify maven to be used. I already stated this some time earlier. It just isn't obvious that is what is being used by the IDE
however for a project that dependends on something built this way, requires that dependency to also be present on another system for it to work
its not magic
the exception to this, is if said dependency is on maven central
because the modern spigot servers will look to maven central for dependencies
and if it finds it, will auto download it
the build system only matters for building btw. The build systems have nothing to do with the jar running afterwards
fluid river
^
wet breach
so that means you can build with ANT, and the server still pull a dependency from maven central
even though maven wasn't used to build it to begin with
upper hazel
so If I add an api like in the video, will other users be able to use the api?
fluid river
they would need your API to be installed on their server
as a plugin
with implements JavaPlugin shit
wet breach
so you would need to provide some way for them to obtain the API to put it on their server. This is how we get maven repositories for projects existing primarily for developers to use, and other methods for users π
I feel we are making progress in clearing this confusion of theirs
fluid river
@upper hazel look at Vault plugin
it's useless by itself
but lots of plugins depend on it
it's just an API plugin
wet breach
and its provided by both spigot site and has a maven repo
fluid river
and well, you can still depend on it manually
wet breach
yeah you can do that too lol
fluid river
with a .jar dependency
but guys who use your plugin would need to install Vault by themselves from spigotmc website and put it to the plugins folder
so well, you can also post your API plugin on spigotmc and tell people to download it if they want your plugins to work
but bruh
upper hazel
ahh now I understand. In order for another user to use the api, he needs a repository on my PC to access the api, and maven solves this by using the Internet available to everyone
this is true?
if so, then a good addition for the spigot server would be to search for the api in the same folder as the api itself
wet breach
ahh now I understand. In order for another user to use the api, he needs a repos...
almost correct. They need someway to download it. This is where spigot site comes in, where users could download it. Or you can provide alternative means for them to get it. Maven repos is a way but this method is typically used for developers when building their plugins so they don't have to go to something like the spigot site and download the api and then manually attach it to their project. Maven is where this comes in doing that for you if a maven repo is available for them to specify
upper hazel
almost correct. They need someway to download it. This is where spigot site come...
why shouldn't the plugin use the API artifact itself in the server folder, then Maven is not particularly needed in this case
just search him in plugins
derictory
or he do this?
barren nacelle
if the timings system is turned off does that mean I cannot use bukkit runnables?
upper hazel
if this true then repository not need bc plugin just can search him in plugins derictory
tall dragon
But u havr no performance insight
upper hazel
but in fact you can use the api for example like this βBukkit.getPluginβ without using the repository in maven
or I'm wrong
i was not use it but think obaut this
i mean a repository in maven only saves us from a lot of lines of code, no?

You need something to compile against
If you plan on using code from some other project it needs to be added as a dependency in maven

You need to specify the full path to the file including the extension on windows.
Not quite sure why the string isn't allowing spaces though. Might want to stick with non spaced folders for the time being.

Command Prompt and Powershell are not consistent for some reason.
I think you can get away with more in CMD, but usually you only need to encapuslate the path in strings if your path contains a folder with a space.
I think in some cases it wants you to surround only the folder in the path with quotes.

This was a discussion on your exact issue <https://discord.com/channels/69041186...
I think they were also using a paper server in that discussion.
young knoll
And they behave fine?
wraith apex
Well I'd start eliminating variables, remove all plugins apart from your own
eternal oxide

Their pastes showed spigot but I dounbted it
frank kettle
And they behave fine?
every plugin seems to be fine yes
only mine is giving this error
this are the plugins
eternal oxide
Moterious was teh exact same error but he was also messing with the logger which could be been an issue
wraith apex
I can only assume classpath is faulty
frank kettle
weird cause its a class from the plugin π
if the classpath was wrong, it wouldnt be working either on the import part and the plugin would be giving me a lot of reds
wraith apex
But you say it happens rarely
eternal oxide
its not the classpath
shadow night
I thought by our conventions we don't name the main class Main

nah the IDE and the compiler are different
IDE will show squiggles as a static evaluation of the code
frank kettle
I thought by our conventions we don't name the main class Main
this really adds a lot of explanation to the conversation
wraith apex
it may be there and it may be showing perfectly fine
frank kettle
I will change the main class to other thing, surely it will fix the issue πΌ

Well, who knows, I've heard of one case where the name of some class was an issue
eternal oxide
if it was an actual issue with classpath/manifest.mf it would error every time, not randomly

how come the Main class name would affect ClassNotFound for other classes?
wraith apex
a dumb fix for this I've found is copying the code somewhere, deleting the class file, re-creating a new class file with the same name and then copying the code back in
frank kettle
i feel like you're just wasting conversation space here π

the thing is when server starts everything works fine
eternal oxide
as I said, repeat the error on Spigot and come back. You are on Paper and I suspect the other dev was also.
frank kettle
if i restart, the the class will suddenly work fine
and then later into the server, some other class will disappear
at least thats what has happened
frank kettle

weird tho, cause then other plugins would also break
wraith apex
at this point I'd have to agree with Elgar, try running it on a spigot server
eternal oxide
Theres obviously a specific set of variables required to trigger it
wraith apex
not a paper one
kind hatch
Is your plugin depending on those other ones?
frank kettle
nope
wraith apex
for a plugin to loose a classpath midway through is odd
frank kettle
my plugin only uses spigot-api and "spigot remapped" stuff
wraith apex
doesn't matter
kind hatch
my plugin only uses spigot-api and "spigot remapped" stuff
Ok? Paper server isn't spigot.
wraith apex
the server is what is running the code
eternal oxide
that error is generally due to a Statc intializer/Fied error when instancing the class, or a caught exception being hidden.
wraith apex
paper makes many alterations to the implementation
kind hatch
Their most recent ones including changes to plugin loading.
wraith apex
run the plugin on a spigot server
frank kettle
this will be so annoying
cause even if i open a spigot server, it only happens randomly after a while and seems after many things have been done on the server...
wraith apex
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
shadow night
Then do many things and let it happen
wraith apex
We can't really do a whole lot then
frank kettle
yeah i will try
but yesterday for example there was 10 people playing and running commands
and everythign worked fine
now i restarted like an hour and its just us 3 on the server, barely did much
and it happened
πͺ
eternal oxide
just change teh server jar for a day to spigot
frank kettle
Spigot is more laggy tho, is there a guide to follow to make it less laggy like paper?
wraith apex
this is just for testing
eternal oxide
Do you want to fix your issue or just complain?
don;t change anything other than the server jar
frank kettle
or what's the reason for paper to work so much "better" than spigot for servers?
frank kettle
Do you want to fix your issue or just complain?
i mean i will try stuff, but im curious on the difference between paper and spigot servers
wraith apex
paper changes how some of underlying implementation for some operations on spigot work to make them either more memory efficient or use less cpu cycles
