@wet breach now im getting Check the info you entered. It doesn't match the info for this card whenever I switch my card lol

Even tho the detatils 100% correct

I have a feeling thats another way of saying card is blocked from being added

[wet breach]

Nice. It probably is another js that needs to be invoked to make it do proper checking. Like it probably doesnt validate until a click or tab key pressed

Or it could be what you said

[quaint mantle]

Nah its after the button is clicked to add it

I get that

Hello, I'm trying to make a Kits plugin. But the system I made doesn't work at all... Does anyone have an idea?

kits:
  diamond:
    delay: 50
    items:
      - DIAMOND: 1
  iron:
    delay: 30
    items:
      - IRON_SWORD: 1
      - IRON_CHESTPLATE: 1

        if (sender instanceof Player) {
            Player player = (Player) sender;
            if (args.length == 1) {
                String kitName = args[0];
                
                if (main.configKit.contains("kits." + kitName)) {
                    for (String itemName : main.configKit.getStringList("kits." + kitName + ".items")) {
                        int amount = main.configKit.getInt("kits." + kitName + ".items." + itemName);
                        ItemStack itemStack = new ItemStack(Material.getMaterial(itemName), amount);
                        
                        player.getInventory().addItem(itemStack);
                        player.updateInventory();
                    }
                } else {
                    player.sendMessage("Le kit n'existe pas !");
                }
            } else {
                player.sendMessage("Utilisation incorrecte. Utilisez /kit <nomDuKit>");
            }
        }
        
        return true;

I have no errors, nothing...

[quaint mantle]

what the hell is this

[pseudo hazel]

whats delay

also wtf is main

you would usually save items as item stacks, not strings

maybe try sending some debug messages to see where it breaks

[shadow night]

Otherwise kits will get boring rq lmao

[pseudo hazel]

yeah that too

[halcyon hemlock]

Ok

[earnest socket]

is there any event for when a you draw a block on the map?

My server uses custom blocks which are just retextured note blocks

I want some way to detect if a note block is being drawn onto a map and if it's a custom block I want to change its color

[eternal oxide]

you mean when a Player places the block?

[pseudo hazel]

im pretty sure maps are rendered client side

[eternal oxide]

I think he's refering to worlds as a map

[pseudo hazel]

ah okay

[eternal oxide]

perhaps not though 🙂

[pseudo hazel]

I got confused by "draw on the map"

[eternal oxide]

same

[pseudo hazel]

I know from modding that each block has a color that is used for drawing the map item maps

but idk if spigot exposes any of that

[eternal oxide]

If he is talking about Maps then he's probably going to have to render his own image

[earnest socket]

no

Maps

like the item

[eternal oxide]

Then yes you will have to render your own image to the map

there is no event

[pseudo hazel]

or pick base blocks with the color you want

[earnest socket]

I know there is an event for map initialization but can I get the map that would normally be drawn from that event or does it just give you an empty canvas or something like that to draw on

[eternal oxide]

it gives you a MapView

[pseudo hazel]

its probably used to determine what region of the world the map should draw? im not sure

[eternal oxide]

it should be initialized but not drawn yet

so it's location shoudl already be set

[fluid river]

you parse your list wrong way

for (String item : main.configKit.getStringList("kits." + kitName + ".items")) {
    int amount = Integer.parseInt(item.split(": ")[1]);
    ItemStack itemStack = new ItemStack(Material.matchMaterial(item.split(": ")[0]), amount);
    player.getInventory().addItem(itemStack);
}
player.updateInventory();``` that's how it should look for your current formatting

[pseudo hazel]

does anyone know how to change terrain generation such that biomes are smaller, without reinventing terrain generation as a whole?

I asked this some time ago but the conclusion was that I basically have to rewrite how minecraft generates biomes

and thats not a good solution

[fluid river]

and it's the only one i know fr 🙂

you don't need to rewrite entire generator, but probably need to work with BiomeProvider

my old post on spigotmc

[pseudo hazel]

well that messes with the biomes only though doesnt it?

[fluid river]

you need biomes to be smaller no?

[pseudo hazel]

like, mountain generation will be wacky

idk if block generation for atuff like mountains will change too if I just change the biome

[fluid river]

idk for sure

[pseudo hazel]

and even then, vanilla has like 5 noises for just biome generation

[fluid river]

well for that you probably need to also override ChunkGenerator

[pseudo hazel]

sad

im not good enough to just redo all of generation xD

[fluid river]

well, i'm also only capable of making void world 🙂

[slate tinsel]

Can I use intellij ultimate to get, for example, a command updated in the game as soon as I change something in the code without restarting the server, ie running the server in intellij.

[chrome beacon]

You mean hot swapping

Then yes you can

[pseudo hazel]

can you do that with community edition too?

[chrome beacon]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/intellij-debug-your-plugin/

Yes

[slate tinsel]

Is this tutorial for both intellij ultimate and intellij community?

[chrome beacon]

Yes

[slate tinsel]

Okey

[spare hazel]

why am i unable to build my bungeecord plugin?

and why am i unable to send the pom.xml in discord?

Is it possible to save arraylists in a yaml file?

[spare hazel]

why am i unable to build my proxy plugin with this pom.xml

[fluid river]

getList()

tho you would have to manually cast your stuff to the type you need

[short raptor]

Hey since Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer returns object for any uuid, even if the player is not real, how can we tell whether the player is real?

[wet breach]

It will if you can change the biome before anything is generated. And a biome now since the changes can be just a single block big not that would be really useful lmao

[sharp cargo]

This still doesn't work, is there anything else I need to change?

                if (main.configKit.contains("kits." + kitName)) {
                    for (String item : main.configKit.getStringList("kits." + kitName + ".items")) {
                        int amount = Integer.parseInt(item.split(": ")[1]);
                        ItemStack itemStack = new ItemStack(Material.matchMaterial(item.split(": ")[0]), amount);
                        player.getInventory().addItem(itemStack);
                    }
                    player.updateInventory();
                } else {
                    player.sendMessage("Le kit n'existe pas !");
                }
            } else {
                player.sendMessage("Utilisation incorrecte. Utilisez /kit <nomDuKit>");
            }
        }
        
        return true;

[fluid river]

what's the error tho

[wet breach]

Well first off you can check if its a valid uuid that conforms. Online uuids use uuid version 4 where as offline ones use version 3. So you can check before anything else that the uuid is a in fact a valid uuid version 4. If that passes you can probably use getPlayerProfile() as that should pull a valid profile from mojang if its a real player uuid.

[fluid river]

.hasPlayedBefore()
!= null
.isOnline()

[young knoll]

That only checks if they have joined your server before

[fluid river]

if you need that for your server ofc

[fluid river]

is there any other case to use offline player on your server?

[young knoll]

Idk

[alpine urchin]

where is it stored?

such info

out of curiosity

[fluid river]

world data ig

[young knoll]

Nah it’s a file

[fluid river]

i used to uncover it from world nbt

[young knoll]

I think it’s offlineplayers.json or something

[fluid river]

in older versions

[alpine urchin]

interesting

[young knoll]

Actually

Thats where the data for getOfflinePlayers is

HasPlayedBefore just checks if they have a player.dat file

[fluid river]

oh true

it's in world folder

at least for 1.19.3

[young knoll]

yep

[pseudo hazel]

okay, and I assume that the biomes get decided before the terrain if I use the biomeprovider?

[young knoll]

Biomes no longer effect terrain

[pseudo hazel]

yeah thats my issue

I can now have a mountain with like 20 biomes if I just scale down the biomes

[young knoll]

mhm

[pseudo hazel]

but instead I would rather have a small mountain with 1 biome xD

[alpine urchin]

i c

what else is in that player dat

just curious

[young knoll]

All the players data

[quaint mantle]

What's the best way to convert degrees into yaw

[alpine urchin]

@young knoll yes

but another example

[quaint mantle]

x / 2

[alpine urchin]

what kinda math is this

[sharp cargo]

No errors, and no messages...

[alpine urchin]

bros waffling

[quaint mantle]

wa

[alpine urchin]

@quaint mantle it already is in degrees

so wdym

[quaint mantle]

ok have u ever heard of 343 yaw tho

[alpine urchin]

how high can yaw go again, havent played this game in a while

[quaint mantle]

-180 <= x <= 180

[short raptor]

So you subtract 180?

[alpine urchin]

are you in the client

[short raptor]

Then it's in the acceptable range no

[quaint mantle]

bro what

subtracting 180 will change it

[alpine urchin]

are you dealing with yaw on server or client

[quaint mantle]

client

[alpine urchin]

subtract 360 till its in range

thats a full rotation which in effect is no difference

[quaint mantle]

that just won't work

-90 deg in yaw is 0 degrees in our conventional system

converting yaw to deg is easy with just + 90

More like converting 2d world to 3d

[sharp cargo]

I receive messages "1" "2" "4"

        if (sender instanceof Player) {
            Player player = (Player) sender;

            }
        }
        
        return true;

[quaint mantle]

?

[wet breach]

The negativeness and positiveness of the yaw tells you the direction it is going in.

[quaint mantle]

why is it made like that

-90 means ur going in the positive x axis

[wet breach]

Negative should be up and positive should be down

[quaint mantle]

that's pitch

[wet breach]

Right tired lmao. So negative should be going left and positive right

[quaint mantle]

double theta = Math.atan2(-x, z);
yaw = (float) Math.toDegrees((theta + _2PI) % _2PI);

what bukkit does

[wet breach]

But the reason for doing it like that is because you dont need to do anything fancy to know the direction someone is turning such as messing with vectors lol

Would be such a pain if we had to mees with vectors to just determine the direction of rotation

[lost matrix]

Means the list your received is empty

[green plaza]

Why ServerSetSlotPacket spawn sword like this? Its weird my camera is maximum down to see this normally u cant even see it

When instead of sword i send map its nearly invisible

[storm crystal]

Anyone got tutorial on how to use scoreboards...? Ever since they got introduced I got no idea how to use them correctly, especially with plugins.

[green plaza]

And unable to read what is on the map

    @Override
    public void join(ProxiedPlayer proxiedPlayer) {
        proxiedPlayer.sendAndFlush(new ServerLoginSuccessPacket(proxiedPlayer.getUUID(), proxiedPlayer.getName()));
        proxiedPlayer.getChannel().pipeline().get(NettyPacketCodec.class).setConnectionState(ConnectionState.PLAY);

        proxiedPlayer.getChannel().eventLoop().schedule(() -> {
            proxiedPlayer.sendAndFlush(new ServerJoinGamePacket(proxiedPlayer.getPlayerID(), Gamemode.SURVIVAL, proxyEngine.getDimensionRegistry().getDefaultDimension_1_16(), Difficulty.PEACEFULL, 1, "default_1_1", false));
            proxiedPlayer.sendAndFlush(new ServerPlayerAbilitiesPacket(false, true, true, false, 0.0f, 0.0f));
            proxiedPlayer.sendAndFlush(new ServerSpawnPositionPacket(new Position(0, 70, 0)));
            proxiedPlayer.sendAndFlush(new ServerPlayerPosLookPacket(new Position(0, 70, 0), 0, 0, 0x2));
        }, 250, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
    }

If anyone interested this is code that sends packets after player join limbo

[upper hazel]

how to overlap a plugin event with another plugin

[lost matrix]

I would use screenshots and gimp or photoshop.
Makes it easy to change the transparency when overlapping.

[upper hazel]

what

[slender elbow]

i'm sure you could use mspaint with some dedication

[lost matrix]

Exactly

What

[upper hazel]

i can cancel if use preority

?

[lost matrix]

Ah ok. Yes, so the server fires one event and every plugin gets this event, one after another.
So if you get the event after another plugin has already cancelled the event, then you can simply
uncancell it if you whish. This can be ensured by having a higher priority than the other plugins listener.

[wet breach]

lower priority you mean

lowest priority gets the last say and action

highest priority goes first and gets to do something first

[echo basalt]

uhh no

it's opposite in bukkit

just read the javadoc and you'll understand

[pseudo hazel]

thanks bukkit

[echo basalt]

"highest priority runs last because it has the final say"

[pseudo hazel]

hmm that does make sense in the context of events yeah

[wet breach]

yeah I always forget bukkit does it the opposite

[restive abyss]

how would I go about making an Inventory type for PersistentDataContainers?

[lost matrix]

You need to serialize the type and the content (ItemStack[])

I see what you are doing. Complex objects cant be serialized by just getting some random bytes.
getMSB and getLSB are methods exclusive to UUIDs because they are essentially just random 128 bit numbers.
And java has no primitive representation, so it gets split into two 64 bit longs.

The most significant 64bit and the least significant 64 bit

[restive abyss]

yeah ik but i have no idea what to put there, i copied the code from https://docs.papermc.io/paper/dev/pdc (custom data types)

[restive abyss]

can't I just serialize the whole Inventory object into bytes?

[lost matrix]

Yeah, they serialize UUIDs here

[lost matrix]

You can only serialize primitives (int, long, float, double etc) and Strings into bytes.

[restive abyss]

hm..

[lost matrix]

Well Strings also just because they are essentially a char[]

[lost matrix]

So your task now is to find an intelligent solution to serializing:
InventoryType -> some primitives
ItemStack[] -> some primitives

And back ofc

[restive abyss]

hmmm

[lost matrix]

PDCs support String as their primitive backbone. This means you could just serialize anything to json and throw it in there.

[restive abyss]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/more-persistent-data-types-collections-maps-and-arrays-for-pdc.520677/ this might help, I think

[remote swallow]

to put a itemstack array in pdc you need to use bukkit object output stream

[storm crystal]

Damn that avatar 💀

[lost matrix]

This does all the heavy lifting for you. I would try to write one yourself first.

[remote swallow]

hes gay so what

[scenic onyx]

https://paste.md-5.net/tidoruyito.cs how i can resolve it?

[lost matrix]

By not calling queries with closed connections...

[scenic onyx]

but is open

[scenic onyx]

public void openConnection() throws SQLException, ClassNotFoundException {
        if (connection != null && !connection.isClosed()) {
            return;
        }

        synchronized (this) {

        }
    }

[echo basalt]

connection.isValid innit

[lost matrix]

1. Get HikariCP going: https://www.baeldung.com/hikaricp
2. Every time you don anything with your DB: Get a new connection from HikariCP

CP = Connection Pool
It manages connections for you

[scenic onyx]

Isn't it always the same connection?

[remote swallow]

no

[echo basalt]

no

[remote swallow]

you close the connection when you finish and you only assign it once

[valid burrow]

what is the max lengh for a username in minecraft

[remote swallow]

16

[valid burrow]

arl

[lost matrix]

You should never use the same connection twice. Having to do all the validation work by hand is asking for trouble.
Just let something like Hikari handle all that nonsense.

[scenic onyx]

bruh...

[wet breach]

it sometimes can be, it depends

the job of the pool is to keep connections open for use

there is a max time connections can be opened, so they will eventually die, but the pool will detect this

and make a new connection to take the place of the one that died

[scenic onyx]

i cant do it Every time I do something

[wet breach]

using a connection pool just reduces the over head in opening and closing connections by reusing connections as much as possible before it dies 🙂

[uncut needle]

can someone help me in #help-server

[lost matrix]

Then make sure to meticulously check your connections for viability

Anyways gtg

[wet breach]

lol, cya later

        player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.SLOW_DIGGING, 1000000, 0, false, false));
    }
}```

fsr this doesn't give me any effects, but the event is triggered

[scenic onyx]

@lost matrix i have do it

public void reloadConnection() throws SQLException {
        stopConnection();
        closeConnection();
        connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://" + host + ":" + port + "/" + database, username, password);
    }

I do this every time I make a Query

[echo basalt]

just use hikaricp already ffs

bro just went from a flaky 30ms to a guaranteed 1.5s

[quaint mantle]

Reconnection comes with cost

If your server has slow connection to db you should not do it.

use bungee chatcolor

and ask in paper server xD

but anyways bungee chatcolor is better in all regards

[remote swallow]

paper still deprecate it

[smoky oak]

hm

different topic, how do i export my plugin in a way someone else can be like 'i build on this'?

[chrome beacon]

?

wdym

[remote swallow]

like an api?

[smoky oak]

like, im working with someone else, i want to give him the ability to make his stuff interface with mine

yea

[chrome beacon]

If you're using maven you can use the install task to add your project to your local maven repo

Then you can depend on it like normal

[smoky oak]

wellllllllllllllll I can do that
but that guy isnt even on the same side of the ocean as i am

[chrome beacon]

As long as you both have access to the project that shouldn't be an issue

if you want easier access you can host your own maven repo

[quiet ice]

Just use git?

[chrome beacon]

^^

[smoky oak]

i am but that'd still require for him to install it wouldnt it?

[pseudo hazel]

if you are both working on the same plugin ,just use source control like git

yes

thats kinda how git works

[quiet ice]

If you want to modify the same project, use git. If one project depends on the other, use a maven repo and automatically deploy nightly builds to it

[smoky oak]

see i dont build PAPI when i use it

its a dependency

[wooden hearth]

If I want a module system within my core should I use CommandMaps instead of putting them in the plugin.yml?

[quiet ice]

Whoever does not have git installed shouldn't be having these issues

[smoky oak]

i mean maven install

[wooden hearth]

Agreed

[smoky oak]

the idea here is that he doesnt have to build the plugin

[quiet ice]

For maven you'd want to do mvn deploy

[smoky oak]

wym

[quiet ice]

The easiest solution is to deploy to an FTP repo, but other ways exist

[smoky oak]

i was told here to run mvn install to get it into my .m2 folder

[quiet ice]

That is if you want it to be done privately

But if you want to deploy it publicly, deploy it is.

[smoky oak]

is there setup required or does it just end up on maven central?

also can u explain the ftp repo please?

[quiet ice]

Deploying it to Maven central/OSSRH isn't that intuitive tbh

[smoky oak]

wait what does deploy do then?

[quiet ice]

Basically you need to declare a repo to deploy your stuff to, in my case it was https://github.com/Geolykt/Presence/blob/main/pom.xml#L51-L58.
If needed (depending on the protocol), you also need to enable the required wagons like so: https://github.com/Geolykt/Presence/blob/main/pom.xml#L100-L107

[smoky oak]

hm so it requires a dedicated server, bummer

[quiet ice]

You can also do it via file://, I think (at least you can do it via gradle)

OSSRH/Maven central does not need a dedicated server, but you need to register a group id and all. It takes a good day to figure out

[smoky oak]

i probably should do that before someone steals my name again

the woes of choosing a name that sounds random but is an actual word

[pseudo hazel]

but what is this person gonna help with if he cant build the plugin

[smoky oak]

well..... because thats not how you distribute API stuff....?

i put the maven dependency in and hit build

[pseudo hazel]

or are they making a separate plugin with yours as a dep

[smoky oak]

again, yes

[pseudo hazel]

okay my bad

I didnt see that the first time

[smoky oak]

lol its fine

time to suffer in maven ig

hey geol is there a 'get started here' link or is this 100% pain ?

[quiet ice]

You cannot steal names

As you need to show proof of ownership of a domain name or of a github account

[smoky oak]

i see, interesting

do i just search for maven central?

[quiet ice]

Probably https://central.sonatype.org/publish/publish-guide/

[smoky oak]

kthx

uh why is intellij marking this as an issue but not saying what it thinks the error is

[quiet ice]

then there is no error

[smoky oak]

ye but why does it highlight it

[chrome beacon]

It tells you

[worldly ingot]

Doesn't look like it is highlighting it

Unless you mean the background highlight which is just an instance highlighter

[quiet ice]

^

[smoky oak]

no it was lit while the cursor was elsewhere

[chrome beacon]

You're trying to instantiate a class that looks like a utility class?

Which is what it's warning you for

[quiet ice]

it's the usage highlighter

[worldly ingot]

If you clicked on instance it would highlight those 4 instances

[smoky oak]

yea but in green

whats that yellow highlight for?

is that the same thing just for the method?

[quiet ice]

green?

[worldly ingot]

Probably the same thing

[smoky oak]

if the cursors on it its green

[remote swallow]

thats usage

[worldly ingot]

Yeah same thing different colour

[remote swallow]

anywhere you have ReachAPI it shows

[quiet ice]

I see no difference

I may be colourblind

[worldly ingot]

You could be because those are different colours lol

[smoky oak]

this isnt a green highlight lol

[quaint mantle]

What is bro waffling about

[smoky oak]

IJ being werid

weired

er

questionable

[worldly ingot]

Yellow highlight: #52503A
Green highlight: #344134

I think you should take a test geol

[smoky oak]

you have a colour picker at hand?

[worldly ingot]

Yeah

[quaint mantle]

No way you said this

[smoky oak]

i cant type sue me

[remote swallow]

windows powertoys

[quiet ice]

Well they concluded I am utterly incompetent at distingishing colors

[worldly ingot]

ShareX has some great tools, one of which is a color picker

[quiet ice]

Could be my autism idk

[smoky oak]

autism shouldnt affect your eyes

[worldly ingot]

Could also be yellow-green colourblindness

[smoky oak]

wait idea brb

[smoky oak]

those values accurate?

[quiet ice]

My eyes actually work. It's my mind that doesn't

[worldly ingot]

Yes

[lilac dagger]

i can achieve the same with 2 apps

[smoky oak]

ill do a very fast test

i do have an image editor

[lilac dagger]

default apps

[smoky oak]

if it would open that is :/

[worldly ingot]

tbf those colour codes are probably slightly desaturated because of your black background

[quiet ice]

The main problem I have are if the color isn't "intense" enough my brain cannot pick them out

[worldly ingot]

Definitely colour blindness :p

[quiet ice]

I mainly have this problem on thin lines

[lilac dagger]

might be the monitor

[quiet ice]

Usually when screens or projectors are employed

[lilac dagger]

people assume monitors are built the same in 20223

[worldly ingot]

These are common tests

[lilac dagger]

they're not

[worldly ingot]

7, 13, 16, 8, 12, 9

top left, bottom right

[lilac dagger]

8 14 17 9 13 10

did i get it right?

[worldly ingot]

You tried

[lilac dagger]

damn

[quiet ice]

?, 8??, 16!, 8!, 12??, 9!

[lilac dagger]

try again on your phone @quiet ice

[smoky oak]

i see the numbers choco wrote but now yall got me doubting myself

[lilac dagger]

try on 2 devices at least

[remote swallow]

what if my green looks nothinglike your green because im colourblind but that is what green look slike

[worldly ingot]

Those are red-green colour blindness tests

[smoky oak]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/un5Ls0TTXqw

dog

[quiet ice]

Yeah in that case everything but the top center ones are at least guessable

[smoky oak]

i cant recall if those dots have the same brightness, they should tho

[glad prawn]

7 13 16 8 12 9 it shows very clearly

[river oracle]

Good job you aren't red green color blind

[glad prawn]

😛

[quiet ice]

When I magnify it I can tell the colors of the dots

[remote swallow]

maybe you have cateracts

[river oracle]

Lol

[smoky oak]

oh thats curious, you might not be totally blind if thats whats happening here
iirc theres a lot of partial blindness types

*red-green blind

[quiet ice]

But uh, at some point my pattern recognition is just 404ing

[lilac dagger]

might be the screen quality then

[quiet ice]

Doubt so.

[smoky oak]

zoom in and move the image around?

[quiet ice]

Bruh. My brain can't even see the 1 even though I now see each dot that is part of the 1

[smoky oak]

oh that's curious. I think there's one part where my pattern recognition fails too, but its on those 3d card thingies

i... have no idea how to describe them

[quiet ice]

hm, I think I know what you mean

[smoky oak]

like the ones that are just ink on cardboard

not those hologramm things but those that look like people descibe lsd

[quiet ice]

Ah uh then yeah no idea

[smoky oak]

found em

if you focus on a point closer to your eyes than the image, the regular patterns overlay. they arent exactly equal giving the illusion of holes in it

oh are u shitting me this one says LSD bruh

[lilac dagger]

can i get a 1440p version?

or the name of the illusion

[smoky oak]

this one has 800 by 500 pixels

uh its 'squint cards' i think

[echo basalt]

I don't see it

[smoky oak]

the actual name is

wikipedia link

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FAutostereogram&psig=AOvVaw2q0uZPq5knD38hG5lJVE1P&ust=1698424685202000&source=images&cd=vfe&opi=89978449&ved=0CBQQ3YkBahcKEwiwgZvek5SCAxUAAAAAHQAAAAAQCA

[quiet ice]

Hm. I've seen those before...

Or rather said, I've already been to this wikipedia article

[short pilot]

What's the best way to store a set of member UUIDs for a faction in a SQLite database? Should I add this set to my table of all the other faction attributes (such as name, description, etc) or make a separate table for it?

[pseudo hazel]

you store the factionid in the player table

[lusty cipher]

what event will be called when a block (shulker box) is broken by a piston?

[short pilot]

oh dang i didnt think about it that way

so a separate table just for players

[quaint mantle]

BlockChangeEvent something with Physicschange event i think

You can check with the block state

Hold on i will confirm that for you. Jus gettin on pc

[valid burrow]

why cant i do this NamespacedKey key = new NamespacedKey("minecraft", "Tag");

[eternal oxide]

lowercase

[valid burrow]

im tryig to recreate the tag that is being added to items when using /give @s nametag{Tag:"what ever"}

And as far as im concernd its uppercase there

[eternal oxide]

rules for NamespacedKeys is all lowercase

[slender elbow]

raw nbt are not necessarily namesoaced keys

[quaint mantle]

@lusty cipher ,
BlockPhysicsEvent

[eternal oxide]

Spigot auto converts all to lowercase

[valid burrow]

well how else do i check then

[slender elbow]

nbt is not api so idk what you're trying to use

[lusty cipher]

hmm thank you very much

[echo basalt]

ah shoot

[valid burrow]

cause the only information i found was that when creating an item like that the info is saved in a pdc

[slender elbow]

pdc is not full nbt access, and it uses namespaced keys to discern plugin ownership of a tag

[quaint mantle]

Yes, the event is called pretty frequently according to spigot docs, on a busy server can be called up to 1000+ times per second..

Also it is fired when a block changes state
So you can work with the piston by getting it BlockState

[echo basalt]

[valid burrow]

well tell me how else i could possibly test for that then

[slender elbow]

it depends exactly what you want to "test for" exactly

[quaint mantle]

Does anyone know how to give yourself Armor Trim in the new version (1.20.2), would somebody be able to provide a code snippet of how to do so?

[slender elbow]

with pdc you can only access other tags put by your or other plugins

[valid burrow]

if an item has a certain item tag

[slender elbow]

not raw full nbt

it depends on the tag

[eternal oxide]

PDC will not allow you to check nbt tags

[lusty cipher]

but that event doesn't get me the item that is being dropped. I want to edit the dropped item

[valid burrow]

a item tag created by this command /give @s nametag{Tag:"nicknamer"}

[eternal oxide]

PDC is a wrapper around a Spigot NBT

[chrome beacon]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/meta/ArmorMeta.html#setTrim(org.bukkit.inventory.meta.trim.ArmorTrim)

[quaint mantle]

Try this EntityCombustByBlockEvent

[lusty cipher]

that sounds like something completely different

[valid burrow]

okay well then again the question what else do i do

i understood by now that my method doesnt work

[quaint mantle]

Sorry im just finding out about this,

[valid burrow]

yall told me that 10 times

[quaint mantle]

their is also BlockPistonRetractEvent you can use

to get the piston^

[eternal oxide]

you would need to access teh raw nbt, so one of the nbt libraries

[pseudo hazel]

yes, I assume you want to store other things in there later too like kits or something

[eternal oxide]

not sure if there is any capture for the vanilla /data command yet

if there is you could parse that

[valid burrow]

whats the easiest way to change a persons nametag

i found somethng about teams but either im too dumb for that or it doesnt work

[young shell]

Is the Stash and Jira only really slow for me or is there something going on there

[kind hatch]

Only seems slightly slower for me. Only like a second or so.

[lost matrix]

Do you want to only change the name above a players head, or also the name the player has in the tab list and chat.

[shadow night]

I wonder if changing the users name in tab and above their head requires the use of packets

[valid burrow]

tablist and above their had in chat im doing it already

cause my chatbuilder has the nicknames of all online players stored anyways

[lost matrix]

Do you need this for changing the name completely or do you only want to decorate the players name.
Because for the former, you would want the player to also be recognised by the server with a different name
for consistency. (Auto completion or targeting someone with a command)

[valid burrow]

well then completly

[lost matrix]

In that case you probably need a more radical approach. Are you ready for some NMS and possibly reflections?

[valid burrow]

so i have a choice? xd

[lost matrix]

Wait, let me check the protocol. Maybe you can spoof the name there already.

[valid burrow]

x)

[alpine urchin]

why do so many people pluralize the word reflection as reflections

looks so weird to me

i think its not incorrect

just reflection sounds better

why did it get that name anyway

reflection

anyone know

and not injections

or so

[echo basalt]

solid chance

[alpine urchin]

would be beyter

[echo basalt]

probably on the tablist packet

[alpine urchin]

player info packet yeah

you can change their name by passing a chat component

[hazy parrot]

Injection would be wrong imo

[lost matrix]

Problem is that the server uses the players name to lookup the UUID. I thought it would be the other way around...

[chrome beacon]

Reflection isn't just for injecting things

[hazy parrot]

More like introspection

[alpine urchin]

why is it called reflection

[echo basalt]

That's serverbound though

[lost matrix]

bc oracle named it like that :)

[alpine urchin]

do you have kids

[chrome beacon]

Oracle didn't come up with that name

[lost matrix]

Yes, thats the point. I want to spoof the name early so that the server constructs a GameProfile with that name.

[alpine urchin]

if you wanna go that far you can intercept such packets

[valid burrow]

wait no

that wont work in my situatiin

i need to be able to change the name WHILE the player is connected too

[lost matrix]

Alright, then making the server also aware of that might be a journey.

[valid burrow]

alright xd

[lost matrix]

Im in the mood for some nms digging actually. Let me see what consequences simply changing the GameProfile on playtime would have.

[valid burrow]

has no one made an api for all this yet??

like

i thought changing the players name is nothing outoftheworld type stuff

[lost matrix]

I mean there are plenty of apis for chaning a players name tag etc. But changing a players name, even with server side recognition is
something you see very rarely.

Only with a few hacks. I mean you could listen to command and tab complete events and simply replace the names.
But it would be fun to completely change a players name on the fly

[valid burrow]

alright then lets try it

couldnt you also just somehow reconnected the player and then have a new playerloginevent

or what ever event comes before the player profile is created

[lost matrix]

Just running BuildTools real quick to build a remapped project so i can explore without decompiled garbage

[valid burrow]

alright

[lost matrix]

Okay uhm, did nms always have so many unused imports?

Ah... the patches made some slight changes 🙂

[valid burrow]

damn

[storm crystal]

can I change how fishing works

[lost matrix]

Hm. It looks like it could be possible to add a name change to the AsyncPlayerPreLoginEvent. Doubt it would get accepted tho.

[lost matrix]

Sure

[storm crystal]

like force fish event but do something else for it when I actually catch a fish

or change time values needed for fish to be fished

[lost matrix]

Yeah you can do all of that

[storm crystal]

lol

do plugins work with mods?

like getting metadata of a modded item and such

[lost matrix]

I mean... if you make them work together

[storm crystal]

as in?

[lost matrix]

If you program code that works together. 🤷

[storm crystal]

I mean

can I just idk

if you give item to a player

and I have mod installed

can I give a modded item

[lost matrix]

This is a complicated question. In general: No

You need a modded server to run mods

[valid burrow]

did you try it?

[molten hearth]

How necessary is it to tell the client about dimension codec

can the client smoke copium or does it throw a fit when you tell it to spawn in one of them

[lost matrix]

Im still following the breadcrumbs. The entire Login procedure is pretty messy.

[valid burrow]

alright tell me if theres anything i can do to help or if you made any progress

[alpine urchin]

did you try turning it off and on again

[echo basalt]

Can't you intercept that packet and then inject the new username?

[lost matrix]

Then the server looks up the UUID for that new username

And skin etc

[echo basalt]

what about changing the name of the gameprofile after the entire login process?

I've definitely messed with something like this before

[lost matrix]

It would be theoretically possible to add a setPlayerName() method in the AsyncPlayerPreLoginEvent but i doubt it would be accepted.

[echo basalt]

hacky reflections :)

[lost matrix]

Im currently finding out what consequences this would have.

The problem is that the gameprofile gets passed around like a cheap... pencil
Its quite hard to figure out where it is used.

But it looks like the only place is the PlayerList. So inside the EntityPlayer itself.

Im still wondering why the player list needs to be a list as there is never any relevant random access via index anywhere

Jo, strong encapsulation?

[lost matrix]

Ok it looks like you can simply change the username inside a GameProfile via reflections and
resend the player info packets in order to change a players name completely.

Let me try a quick example

[valid burrow]

alright thank you

[scenic onyx]

Are you telling me I can calculate it?

[lost matrix]

I mean. Here

[scenic onyx]

mm

[lost matrix]

All sides have the same length when looking from above

Thats what i mean

Wait let me double check. This might be old information.

[scenic onyx]

yes

[lost matrix]

Yeah, looks about right

[scenic onyx]

so the code is cooret because the lenght is the Width

[quaint mantle]

hey, pathfindergoals wont work on newer mobs right

[valid burrow]

can you show me the imports?

i dont know which ones to use for like half of those objects xd

maybe a silly question but how do i add line breaks to this?

this is for the kick message

[valid burrow]

\n

[edgy oak]

thats what i thought but it doesnt seem to be working for whatever reason

[valid burrow]

give me 1 sec

im gonna check my code

[edgy oak]

👍

[lost matrix]

Reading \ from a config escapes it in the loaded String.
So \n is now \\n which is not a newline character but simply the \ and n char.

[valid burrow]

yeah that seems to be it

if you wanna read lines from config just make a string list

and use a string joiner

[lost matrix]

You would have to do something like

String replaced = loaded.replaceAll("\\n", "\n");

[valid burrow]

i prefer my option simply because the user can create actual lines in the config

[lost matrix]

Or you can allow a String list, yeah

[edgy oak]

ahhh i see, thank you it works now :)

Did you forget to run BuildTools with the remapped flag

[lost matrix]

You need to run BuildTools

[gray merlin]

I try to offer compatibility for 1.7.10 onwards, since there are still servers playing on it. Once mojang removes 1.7.10 from the versions list, so will I from my plugins

I have to change a lot of code, sure, and sometimes I take a while to offer 1.7.10 compat, but It's a nice exercise and I get there

[valid burrow]

no i did that

[lost matrix]

I mean with 1.13+ you cover about 90% of all servers. Everything below is legacy in my books.

[gray merlin]

(Also, I started writing plugins for an 1.7.10 server in crucible, so it sensibilised me to it)

[gray merlin]

Fair enough, and good point!

[lost matrix]

Get a newer BuildTools version

[valid burrow]

alright papa

[chrome beacon]

You built 1.20.1 and depend on 1.20.2

[valid burrow]

oh

[lost matrix]

Thats about 10%

Actually scrap 1.13
1.16.5 is low enough 😛

[young knoll]

Why’s no one on 1.10.2

The best version

[gray merlin]

For new plugins, I start them in the latest version an then make my way downards; If I don't have to change any code, great! If I do, then shucks, will come a bit later
My project structure is as it is specifically so i can build plugins for every version, and honestly, maven modules are carrying lol

Though my projects end up looking like this

[lilac dagger]

1.7?

why?

[gray merlin]

It's the topic of conversation 😛

[gray merlin]

.

[valid burrow]

isnt hypixel 1.7 for example?

[gray merlin]

I think it does support it that much back yeah

[lost matrix]

They dont really use spigot. They have a completely custom jar at that point

[young knoll]

Wtf is crucible

[valid burrow]

well this is still red

[gray merlin]

One vastly unknown plugin loader that works specifically for 1.7.10 Minecraft + 1.7.10 Forge

The only difference between spigot and crucible are the nms mappings

[wooden hearth]

What's my peeps upto today?

[chrome beacon]

So a fork of cauldron I assume

[gray merlin]

I think so, yes

[worldly ingot]

Hypixel has a dedicated team of some of the top Minecraft developers where they have control over their own server software Not at all comparable to an NMS method you want to call and backporting that call to Minecraft 1.7

entity.what ever

[storm crystal]

I have this so far

[valid burrow]

infront of the last line

put

Entity entity =

[ivory sleet]

one of their major jars they build is forked from 1.7 iirc, but its not at all as Choco said near comparable, equivalent or even alike 1.7 (spigot/bukkit)

[slender elbow]

can you do that on bukkit pls I need amethyst in 1.7

[valid burrow]

Entity entity = what

[echo basalt]

Isn't the hitbox just a cuboid that's rotated based on the body yaw of the entity?

[valid burrow]

Entity entity = p.getWorld().spawnEntity(p.getLocation(), EntityType.ZOGLIN);

[echo basalt]

actually I don't remember hitboxes ever being rotated

except for the dragon maybe

even then

[ivory sleet]

$ as lambda parameter variable name, myes

[echo basalt]

try a regular for loop

[quaint mantle]

converting a list

[eternal night]

who'd do such a such

[slender elbow]

_ as a lambda parameter name 🥺

[lost matrix]

parallely streaming into a collector literally decreases your performance for no reason

[storm crystal]

how do I spawn it

[eternal night]

but WHENN

[quaint mantle]

you cant

[eternal night]

not yet

[quaint mantle]

):< nuh uh

[worldly ingot]

Yes you can do this so long as the Modrinth page doesn't link to some off-site payment

[next stratus]

I'm going to assume block display's don't work in spigot? 🤔

[worldly ingot]

Why would you assume that?

[echo basalt]

they do

[gray merlin]

Thank you!

[valid burrow]

if you do that it spawns. you spawn it and define the entity as the thing you spawn. Then after its spawned you can edit it

[ivory sleet]

not yet....

[next stratus]

I've been trying to spawn them the past few days and none have worked unless I'm just real dumb.

[valid burrow]

spawn Entitys?

[worldly ingot]

Could be a multitude of reasons why it wouldn't be working

[lost matrix]

You should write concrete methods here for sure

[worldly ingot]

Positioning, poor affine transformations, etc.

[next stratus]

Yeah, that's what I'm doing using the spawn entity.

[valid burrow]

show code and errors

[next stratus]

affine transformations?

[worldly ingot]

#setTransformation()

[next stratus]

ngl, I wish it would error at this point

[worldly ingot]

Could also just not have a block state assigned to the display and it's using air instead

Like I said, lots of reasons it wouldn't be showing

[next stratus]

I tried

    BlockDisplay entity = (BlockDisplay) location.getWorld().spawnEntity(centre, EntityType.BLOCK_DISPLAY);
    entity.setBlock(Material.DIAMOND_BLOCK.createBlockData());
    entity.spawnAt(location);

[worldly ingot]

entity.spawnAt()?

[next stratus]

Yeah, is that not correct?

[valid burrow]

npo?

[young knoll]

spawnEntity already spawns the entity

[next stratus]

I'm just trying to get it to spawn into the world at this point lol.

[valid burrow]

.

[young knoll]

Hence the name

[worldly ingot]

That's a Paper method as far as I'm aware and not necessary

[next stratus]

Alright, I removed it

[valid burrow]

Are you using paper DevBukkit

[next stratus]

On my server or?

[lost matrix]

    BlockDisplay display = world.spawn(location, BlockDisplay.class, unspawned -> {
      unspawned.setBlock(Material.STONE.createBlockData());
      unspawned.setInterpolationDelay(10);
      ...
    });

[worldly ingot]

Yeah that should work fine

If not then just make sure your Location objects are in the correct place as you expect

[next stratus]

I've debugged the locations and it came out fine 🤔

[valid burrow]

are you sure your method gets executed?

[next stratus]

I mean the rest of the code is being executed so yeah, I'm confident it is I'm trying smiles a sec.

[valid burrow]

and a print statement after it

thats the easiest way to check

also

try teleporting the player to the entity

it should trow an error if it doesnt exist

[next stratus]

Why is the spigot api so wacky sometimes 😅

I'm trying to teleport thing atm, it doesn't show visablly unless it's just super tiny if that's possible

[storm crystal]

how can I give entity armor and potion effects?

[chrome beacon]

Do you want to spawn an entity with armor and effects or do you want to give an existing entity armor and effects?

[storm crystal]

spawn

[lost matrix]

Uh oh. Dont we have a guide for entities?

[chrome beacon]

use the spawn method that takes a consumer, like this for example ^^

and then you can modify the entity

[storm crystal]

how am I supposed to know

[echo basalt]

you clearly aren't a regular

p sure we don't

[chrome beacon]

^^

[chrome beacon]

To set armor get the entity equipment and to give effects you can use the addPotionEffect method

[valid burrow]

what is the newest maven compiler

[next stratus]

I don't know if this makes any sense to anyone helping but this is the transformation https://i.imgur.com/VhQ3hcK.png

[storm crystal]

doesnt work

xdd

[lost matrix]

Not every entity has equipment. Only LivingEntities

[chrome beacon]

^^

[chrome beacon]

Show your entire method

[storm crystal]

w/e ill figure it out tommorow im tired

[chrome beacon]

My guess is that you're still trying to spawn a BlockDisplay

Which isn't a living entity

[quaint mantle]

or they forgot to cast it or something

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1119228684243583118.webp?size=48&name=olaf_pebble&quality=lossless

[chrome beacon]

No need to cast

[storm crystal]

its being spawned correctly btw

[chrome beacon]

It's a generic method

It could also be that they didn't use the spawn method that takes a consumer

[valid burrow]

@lost matrix

help me

why is there so many

[lost matrix]

Sending: thoughts and prayers on facebook

[storm crystal]

    @EventHandler
    public void onFish(PlayerFishEvent event) {
        Player player = event.getPlayer();
        Entity entity = event.getCaught();
        FishHook hook = event.getHook();
        if (entity != null) {
            player.sendMessage("§8[§6Server§8] §7You caught a monster.");
            event.setCancelled(true);
            hook.remove();
            Location location = player.getLocation();
            location.setX(location.getX()+1);
            location.setZ(location.getZ()+1);
            Entity monster = player.getWorld().spawnEntity(location, EntityType.ZOMBIE);
            if (monster instanceof LivingEntity livingEntity) {
                monster.setCustomName("§8[§6H§8] §7Monster");
                livingEntity.setHealth(20);
            }
        }
    }

here I got this so far

[valid burrow]

no but really how do i make it not compile 10 different version

[lost matrix]

Do a maven clean and then maven package

[chrome beacon]

so my second guess was correct

You didn't use the spawn method that takes a consumer

[valid burrow]

okay thx

[storm crystal]

great I certainly know what it means

I dont

[chrome beacon]

Like this

[valid burrow]

there is still 5..

[lost matrix]

This should work. Do you get the "You caught a monster" msg?

[storm crystal]

it works

[lost matrix]

The lowest one

[valid burrow]

i know

but

i dont want it to compile the other ones

can i turn that off somehow

it annoys me

[storm crystal]

it works but I gave up at setting custom armor and potion effects for now

[lost matrix]

Probably. I never bothered so i would have to find out how to this as well.

[lost matrix]

Not monster.getEquipment() but livingEntity.getEquipment()

[wooden hearth]

Do you think having a module system in a server core would be useful so they can enable and disable if they want too and I was thinking to it so it's part of the API so people can expand on it for there on server?

[inner mulch]

Is there a way to implement cooldowns other than using bukkitrunnables?

[wooden hearth]

depends on the duration

[worldly ingot]

If you're not wanting to display a message the moment a cooldown ends, you could just store timestamps and compare

[inner mulch]

hmm

[wooden hearth]

if it's a few mins then you could but if it's like 3 hours or more I would use timestamps etc

[lost matrix]

Yes. Always use timestamps for your cooldown and only use runnables if you want to update a users view of those timestamps.

[inner mulch]

3 second cooldown for chat
definable cooldown from 1 - 24 hours for mute

[worldly ingot]

Oh then yeah, timestamps easily

No need to send messages or anything when cooldown is up, you can send the time remaining in chat if a message fails to send

[wooden hearth]

timestamps you don't want to keep running runnables for hours on end it will make the plugin run slower and overload the server in the end

[worldly ingot]

I don't think that would happen, but it is overkill for this situation :p

[inner mulch]

so timestamps are the only way?

[wooden hearth]

I would use timestamps if you have never used them, here's a time to learn 🙂

[worldly ingot]

Probably the best way. Save when a player last spoke (or when the cooldown is set to expire), compare against current time

[wooden hearth]

I'm using timestamps for my ignore command and mute command

[inner mulch]

lets say i mute somebody and save it in a db so its serverwide, wouldnt it be extremely ineffiecnt to compare it everytime the player tries to speak?

[lost matrix]

I would always use timestamps, no matter the time period. Times and Durations should always be represented using fixed points in time.

[lost matrix]

Yes

?data

[inner mulch]

and you said i cant display remaining time with timestamps, therefore players cant know when their mute is gone, wouldnt that be frustrating?

[lost matrix]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/working-with-data.562421/

[wooden hearth]

How easy is it to work with timestamps?

[lost matrix]

It is very important to define a scope for your data. Load into memory when a player joins and save it back when he quits.

[lost matrix]

Its simple. You just check if a timestamp is in the past or not.

[wooden hearth]

for like /mute <player> <duration> <reason> whats the format to enter the duration in mins or seconds

[lost matrix]

Depends how you implement the parsing

[wooden hearth]

I was going to make a system like this D2,M24,S20 but it might be an over kill lol

[lost matrix]

A common format would be /mute bob 1d10h30m30s

[wooden hearth]

Alright thank you

[inner mulch]

@lost matrix i dont quite understand the ressource, if i use the "crud" method and delete the data everytime, how can i efficiently store data that will be permanent?

[lost matrix]

The important part is The scopes of data

[wooden hearth]

Mines kinda fucked then because I load the data only when it needs using then once it sets it will save then bam never uses again unless it gets called haha

[inner mulch]

but still, what do i do with permanent data

lets say i have 10000 players with levels in a skill

[lost matrix]

Save it when the session ends

[inner mulch]

oh so only save it once the player leaves

so that the database doesnt get flooded

[worldly ingot]

I would at least update experience periodically and levels immediately ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Depends on how important that data is I suppose

[storm crystal]

is it possible to make player NPCs just like in Hypixel?

[inner mulch]

what if the server crashes tho :(

[lost matrix]

And additionally saving all loaded data every few minutes. Or for really important data you can use a write-behind method like choco suggested

[storm crystal]

or is it something too difficult/complex?

[inner mulch]

okay

[lilac dagger]

of course you can

[lost matrix]

Its pretty complicated. I would use an external lib for now.

[wooden hearth]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[wooden hearth]

is mine fucked then? https://paste.md-5.net/viputubepa.java

[storm crystal]

if I wanted to do standing NPCs Id just use like villager as placeholder

[valid burrow]

i get this error btw @lost matrix

[storm crystal]

well I was more asking out of curiosity if that's like actual player standing

[lost matrix]

Your server isnt on 1.20.2

[valid burrow]

oh yh that may be why

[inner mulch]

this would be done with a bukkitrunnable, right?

[lost matrix]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/guide-to-async-io.623371/

[lost matrix]

But yeah, the periodic saving could simply be done with a bukkit runnable

[inner mulch]

ok

thank you for all the data related information

[wooden hearth]

You could cache the player data then save it when they leave the server and when they join grab all there data to the cache

[inner mulch]

what do i use for caches, the only cache i know of is a hashmap?

[lost matrix]

Caching is a whole layer that needs careful consideration

[wooden hearth]

I know I was just saying for an extra option

[tribal quarry]

isn't hypixel using citizens? (not sure exactly if its forked or a different release)

[wooden hearth]

I think everyone uses citizens

[lost matrix]

But i would use Caffeine for local caching and Redis for remote caching

[valid burrow]

@lost matrix I FINALLY GOT IT TO WORK TYSM

[inner mulch]

what is this?

[lost matrix]

Tell me if the renaming works

[storm crystal]

I mean, just player looking NPCs, not actual players

I dont know a lot about already existing plugins that people use

[wooden hearth]

I mean do research and see if you like it

[lost matrix]

Dont bother with caches for now. Most if not all Databases have a cache themselves.

[valid burrow]

yh it does

[lost matrix]

Cache<String, DataObject> cache = Caffeine.newBuilder()
  .expireAfterWrite(1, TimeUnit.MINUTES)
  .maximumSize(100)
  .build();

This is how a cache from caffeine could look like

Its just a map

[inner mulch]

ok so a next level hashmap

[wooden hearth]

pretty much yeah

[inner mulch]

what is the maximumSize for tho?

max size of characters?

[echo basalt]

just found one of the most cursed jdk classes

Grapheme

[wooden hearth]

Dose anyone use Trello to plan there work?

[lost matrix]

max size of the map. If new entries come in then oldest ones get thrown out

[inner mulch]

oh thats smart

[ivory sleet]

Remember, its a lazy cache, so expiration is validated lazily (for who ever might use it)

[lost matrix]

Sure

[echo basalt]

a lil bit

[lost matrix]

😘 yeah ofc. Ill remember. And if not then youll let me know again.

[chrome beacon]

Sometimes, started using Github projects tab instead

[wooden hearth]

I've used it to plan my plugin that I want to release

[ivory sleet]

well, mostly to the fellas who just chop that code in as is w/o knowing what it really does :,)

[tribal quarry]

Citizens could make this, or you can just make your own with packets, there are lots of tutorials about this (This could be done with packets, and tricking clients to see non-existent players (NPCs).

[lost matrix]

Ill let them know when they want to add listeners to this thing :=

[echo basalt]

thank you jdk real cool

[tribal quarry]

@storm crystal I would suggest this tutorial, its pretty same for 1.17.1+ versions:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnUVroXsyG8

[sterile token]

What do you mean by lazy cache?

[young knoll]

Excuse me wtf is that

[echo basalt]

something something emojis in regex

[wooden hearth]

Should I allow papi placeholders in all my messages so then the people can customize them more or only ones that are needed?

[sterile token]

I would allow then in fully plugin

[wooden hearth]

Alright thank you

[sterile token]

In my case i use an utility method, which check if PAPi is enabled and replace them using it (PAPI). If not just return the text directly without replacing

[wooden hearth]

well I'm making it if they don't have papi then it disables the plugin so PAPI is a depency for me

[sterile token]

right that perfect, would do the same haha

[wooden hearth]

yeah haha

[sterile token]

because if not is a mess working with placeholders, you have to replace them manually i neach thing. Because the values are different

[wooden hearth]

yeah exactly

[slender elbow]

you can set a Scheduler so expiration and all the other obersvers/runners/whatever runs based on that

[ivory sleet]

YEAH

oops caps

[dry hazel]

YEAH

[sterile token]

coclure, whhat lazy abour caffeine?

I read that somewhere

[ivory sleet]

well

you need to use Builder#scheduler if u want it to do it eagarly

[sterile token]

its something about concurrency right?

[ivory sleet]

yeah, for it to be eager it needs to be done async in principle

[sterile token]

eager? 🤔

[dry hazel]

eager is the opposite of lazy

[sterile token]

right, thanks man. Because you talk an asf closed english which you only natives understand

[dry hazel]

I mean, that's the proper terminology, lazy initialization is on demand and eager is right away

I'm not a native speaker by the way, english is my third language

[inner mulch]

if i save data to the cache, couldnt it be manipulated with programms, or does this only work if the data is client side?

[cursive kite]

Is a new Chunk object created when they unload / load

For player claims I save a list of Chunk but they seem to randomly reset

But there are still objects in the array

[river oracle]

I would be cautious storing things like Chunks and Locations in arrays

moreso chunks than Locations

If you need a chunk you might be best off instead storing just the chunk coordinates

[cursive kite]

Got it

Whats the best way to map them so i can grab a given claim without looping thru all them

I was doing Chunk -> ClaimObject

It's kind of sloppy but I guess the only option is a string? I can do like worldname+x+z

[river oracle]

you should really only store worldname, x , z

as you said above

also don't use a string use an object

public class SimpleChunk {
  private final String world;
  private final int x;
  private final int z;

  // constructor nd stuff
   
  public Chunk toBukkt() {
    // bukkit code here
  }
}

you may think this seems redundant but chunk stores a lot more than a world name and x and z coordinateds

[cursive kite]

So map SimpleChunk -> ClaimObject

Because I need to be able to pull a claim object quickly as it is checked when they enter chunks, break blocks in chunks, etc

[river oracle]

pretty much

[cursive kite]

Whats the best way to compare it, if i make new SimpleChunk(world, x, z) during setup, when i am checking the chunk during move event if i do new SimpleChunk again the key will not match

[river oracle]

yes it will

implement equals and hashcode

allow the equals method to take in a bukkit chunk too

that'll limit creating temporary objects

[sterile token]

Why people work with Chunks when talking about regions? I seem them as a mess i prefer cuboid areas using locations
im curious about this

[lost matrix]

There is also a slightly faster way with a smaller memory footprint when using a Long2ObjectMap and bit shifting x and z into a single long

[cursive kite]

But then world

[river oracle]

World names must be unique

its pretty much a uid

[lost matrix]

Chunks are really easy to handle and portion. And way faster than cuboid regions as well.

[sterile token]

how they faster? Im interested now if you are not bussy

[lost matrix]

Gets put in a Object2ObjectMap<UUID, WorldDomain>
Each WorldDomain contains a Long2ObjectMap<SomethingChunkSpecific>

[lost matrix]

Lookup for chunks can always be done instantly in O(1)
Regions need to be iterated and are O(n) worst case impl.
You can do a few optimizations but in the end you are always left with a small O(n) section
because you need to iterate.

[storm crystal]

how can I displace entity?

as in change their location but dynamically, not teleport them

[thin iris]

like velocity?

[storm crystal]

yes

[lost matrix]

Unless the old world is deleted and created again with the same name. Then you would have a different UUID but are left with your (invalid) name mapping.

[thin iris]

setVelocity(..)

it takes in a vector

[storm crystal]

I mean, I want to push entity in a certain direction

a few blocks
