I've never had an issue with it myself
glacial coral
I can't seem to get the item that the killer holds under PlayerDeathEvent. It just prints out an empty string. Anyone knows why that might be? I tried getting the inventory of the killer and then getting the mainhand item and then getting the itemmeta so I could get the item displayname itself:
Player killer = e.getEntity().getKiller();
PlayerInventory killerInventory = killer.getInventory();
ItemStack item = killerInventory.getItemInMainHand();
ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
plugin.getLogger().info(meta.getDisplayName()); //this becomes empty output

dry hazel

wet breach
happens when it tries to decompile a shit class, i.e. Material
doesn't need to decompile if you provide sources
quaint mantle
if I have a bunch of custom items and I dont want each one to "identify itself" how would i go on about that
so for example on a right click event I dont want each custom item to filter the event
dry hazel
doesn't need to decompile if you provide sources
considering it freezes upon opening for them, that's probably not the case
echo basalt
you can make a listener for every possible item type and call a custom event
that's pre-filtered
quaint mantle
illusion do u rem what I had before?
it was the interface with empty default method bodies
echo basalt
you've been bothering me with this for ages
echo basalt
just make a bunch of custom item events
quaint mantle
maybe ill just use the bukkit event api
storm crystal
is the code any okay? minus the bukkit runnable ill try to change it for something different
chrome beacon
That will break as soon as there's more than one player
storm crystal
why
chrome beacon
or are you registering a listener per player
storm crystal
you can do that?
chrome beacon
Yes but don't
storm crystal
so what do I do
storm crystal
can I just edit config for playerstats and add this cooldown here
chrome beacon
That would be a bad idea
storm crystal
but learn what exactly

You need to know the fundamentals
people told me here its fine if I learn at the same time as I write plugins, going into most likely a 50hr+ course just to stare at console to see if the output is the one I wanted is pretty dull
remote swallow
its fine to learn java with plugins but you need to atleast know the basics before making plugins imo
echo basalt
The idea is to master the basics so you actually understand what people are talking about when they help you
storm crystal
The idea is to master the basics so you actually understand what people are talk...
you know a person throwing tutorials that they most likely havent even seen themselves to judge if they have said fundamentals isn't super helpful either
and like, someone here also said that fundamentals are subjective

let's just say
everyone wants to help
But not everyone is qualified to help type deal
Just listen to what the "regulars" say and you'll be fine
and don't take everything literally

maybe i can help you
what exactly are you looking for?
storm crystal
so if I want to make player specific listeners can I somehow loop for them?
inner mulch
im sorry but im not advanced enough, but maybe i can find a different solution, what exactly are you looking for ?
storm crystal
what exactly are you looking for?
it was general question not reply to this
remote swallow
so if I want to make player specific listeners can I somehow loop for them?
dont make per player listeners
storm crystal
how about HashMap of UUIDs and cooldown values?
remote swallow
look at the cooldown manager tutorial i sent it shows how to have per player cooldowns
remote swallow
how about HashMap of UUIDs and cooldown values?
there you go
inner mulch
how about HashMap of UUIDs and cooldown values?
cooldowns with a hashmap are a great idea, are you familiar with System.currentTimeMillis?
storm crystal
not really
inner mulch
with System.currentTimeMillis, you are getting a long representing this particular timestamp
storm crystal
HashMap is like dictionary?
inner mulch
?
chrome beacon
Yes
storm crystal
or like kind of PDC where you have "something" = value(can be int, string etc.)
inner mulch
yes every key has a value in a hashmap
inner mulch
yeah you dont need runnables for cooldowns
chrome beacon
Here we go again π
storm crystal
I spent like 2 hours figuring out how they work
inner mulch
they are still useful tho
chrome beacon
Time for another rewrite
storm crystal
what are Runnables useful at?
chrome beacon
Running things in the future
inner mulch
what are Runnables useful at?
for example saving data every few minutes
or sending a message like join our discord every few minutes

can I make my plugin run my own commands?
inner mulch
yes
storm crystal
thats useful

you dont even need runnables forr that

remote swallow
well yeah
remote swallow
ideally you shouldnt ever need to run the command like that
storm crystal
what exactly are you looking for?
honestly its kind of frustrating to hear "learn fundamentals" and assuming that I didnt even read anything, but I did entire w3schools course and so far utilized maybe like 70% of what I learnt there
like bro I am not going to recognize shit at the speed of light π
inner mulch
honestly its kind of frustrating to hear "learn fundamentals" and assuming that...
in my opinion you should just work on what you want and google or ask when ever it doesnt work
wet breach
well, the best way to understand the fundamentals is to use them in something so you have an understanding
there is going to be plenty of things though that can't always be explained in a very basic way, like for example keywords
wet breach
there is going to be plenty of keywords that you won't know when you should or shouldn't use them because there really isn't an easy way to explain them except what they do
for example, the difference between private, protected and public
it can tell you what those do, but not when you should or shouldn't use them
and there is even more keywords then those, just those are the most common you will deal with π

only difference between this an my FrozenRegistry is that it can be registered too after created
wet breach
only difference between this an my FrozenRegistry is that it can be registered t...
so an updated version?
river oracle
I'm trying to make my new plugin completely data driven so I have quite a few registries
storm crystal
wait how is it not initialized if its already been initialized in constructor
remote swallow
that is outside the constructor
it will get init'd before the constructor runs
you got sent something for just that earlier
storm crystal
you got sent something for just that earlier
oh like that?
chrome beacon
yes
storm crystal
okay I think I got it
so I basically made my main class only around setting up commandexecutors and registering events and parsing plugin instance further and each of my class grabs necessary instances of utility classes or plugin instance like that with initializing fields and then giving them values via constructor, is that a good way of making it?
wet breach
oh like that?
to clarify, if you look at DamageManager. The way you have declared it will make it not initialized just declared. If for some reason BoneAbility is not invoked, DamageManager will be left unitialized. Most times not an issue, but it could be say if another method below that BoneAbility method needs it but is say static. Now if something outside of the class access that static method, DamageManager would be unitialized. You can intialize stuff at the top where you declare and generally if you are able to initialize that early its best to do so. Its fine the way it is right now, just something to be aware about.
storm crystal
to clarify, if you look at DamageManager. The way you have declared it will make...
is DamageManager initialized in my next 2 screenshots by main class?
wet breach
A class being initialized isn't the same as a variable being intialized
two different things
storm crystal
declaring a class is basically writing it down while initializing is making an instance out of it?
or do I get that wrong
wet breach
also you can have 2 instances of a class but they both be different unless you have something in place to ensure only a single instance also known as singletons
anytime you do new DamageManager(plugin) you will get a new instance of the class
but now lets take your variable for example
storm crystal
anytime you do `new DamageManager(plugin)` you will get a new instance of the cl...
yeah this class has both utility methods for counting damage and has event listeners that listen for player damage to mobs, so those listeners would only be initialized by instance made in main class, while other instances would just be using utility methods?
wet breach
DamageManager damageManager = Rpg.DamageManager(Rpg) now if you had a method in your main class Rpg named DamageManger, and if it returned a DamageManger Instance. Instead of the variable creating an instance, we have now deferred to a method to create or return an instance instead.
storm crystal
yeah I dont get that
wet breach
at the same time if this was at the top of the class, the variable is also now intialized regardless if DamageManager method returns anything or not
well at minimum, it has to return a DamageManager object, but that doesn't necessarily mean the object isn't null
wet breach
yeah I dont get that
the reason I can use Rpg, is because all main classes of plugins are static, therefore you can directly call the main class. Anything that is static can be directly called. Your main class also extends JavaPlugin, so it makes a valid Plugin object due to inheritance. Hence I can just stuff that into the constructor
storm crystal
yeah I get that
I dont need instance of Rpg class
I can just get plugin from it
and pass it via constructor
wet breach
well it may be handy to intialize your plugin instance before the constructor
but, at least you are getting the hang of it regardless
storm crystal
like this?
wet breach
private Rpg plugin;
I typically keep a static method in my main class
so I can do something like this
private Rpg plugin = Rpg.getInstance()
then you don't need a plugin instance passed via constructor, handy when its not needed to do so
like true utility classes for example
ivory sleet
like this?
Probably the better practice generally speaking
a singleton here is fine tho like frostalf is mentioning
storm crystal
but generally what im doing is not as bad?
wet breach
no, its correct
Just instead of using JavaPlugin however
which is the more generic version
you should use Rpg instead
use JavaPlugin if you are expecting an object from other plugins
wary remnant
What about JavaPlugin.getPlugin(Rpg.class)?
wet breach
That makes no sense to do even though it would work, you would use such a method like that when you want to fetch a Plugin instance of another plugin
not your own lol
ivory sleet
What about `JavaPlugin.getPlugin(Rpg.class)`?
its fine, if you cant be bothered to write ur own singleton then use that
Altho it goes through the classloader and some other stuff
U also have getProvidingPlugin
Which is really nice for libraries
As frosty said, prob doesnt make much sense if u need to call the getPlugin one tho lol
wary remnant
I think making intelligent use of dependency injection and structural decisions will allow me to avoid using a singleton altogether
storm crystal
is it an okay way to make use of utility classes that dont need plugin instance and those that need plugin instance to work?
ivory sleet
I think making intelligent use of dependency injection and structural decisions ...
That presupposes that singletons are inherently bad regarding design
wary remnant
They are not
ivory sleet
Which is a wrong assumption in the first place
Singletons have their place just like any other design pattern
ivory sleet
Yeah go to sleep
wary remnant
Yes, but one should not throw a singleton at every problem that would allow having one just because it is "easier"
wet breach
is it an okay way to make use of utility classes that dont need plugin instance ...
a true utility class you wouldn't intialize the entire class. They typically have static methods with a private constructor for the class that prevents an outside source from intializing it.
So because you wouldn't have a constructor to intialize, it makes sense you need a different way to fetch a plugin instance
ivory sleet
Yes, but one should not throw a singleton at every problem that would allow havi...
Of course and then its also the fact that singletons rarely make ur code easier anyway
wet breach
which is what I was essentially inferring to
storm crystal
which is what I was essentially inferring to
the private Rpg plugin = Rpg.getInstance()?
wet breach
well, that is just an exception to the rule because main classes of plugins are singletons and static
but yeah
storm crystal
so to turn it into a static class I'd have to make private constructor and static methods?
wet breach
so to turn it into a static class I'd have to make private constructor and stati...
well to make a static class, it doesn't need to have a private constructor. I was stating in terms of conventions if it truly is a utility class, then the methods should be static because a utility class itself shouldn't need to be initialized. You could make the class itself static but generally not necessary unless its a functional class then probably wise to do this
ivory sleet
anyone got a better method name than this
```
static <T extends RegistryKey>...
Iβd say Writable or Modifiable might be nice prefixes
little late tho but ye
wet breach
ah Conclube to the rescue
storm crystal
so I just make methods static and how do I initialize such class in another one?
ivory sleet
You manage just fine frosty ;)
wet breach
you wouldn't intialize the class, you would reference the methods instead
wary remnant
so I just make methods static and how do I initialize such class in another one?
You don't, that's the point of making the methods static
storm crystal
so to turn it into a static class I'd have to make private constructor and stati...
so in that case I can just EntityPDC.setPDC etc.?
storm crystal
you can import static methods
like import EntityPDC.setPDC and then just use it?
wary remnant
And by the way, there is the PersistentDataHolder interface which defines the getPersistentDataContainer() method, just in case you didn't know
wet breach
yeah once you import a static method, you should just be able to use it in the class like you do everything else π
also note it isn't necessary to import a static method either, as just like you are doing or showing
you can just reference it directly, but it does make it easier code wise if you import it though
storm crystal
And by the way, there is the `PersistentDataHolder` interface which defines the ...
I know
I just found the fact that defining Namespaced key etc. is just very redundant
since im working a lot on PDCs
so I wanted to make utility class for that
so that I could just return value very fast
so I guess tommorow ill tidy up my plugin more with static methods now that I know how they work
wary remnant
I was referring to your LivingEntity parameter type. You could widen the scope of your function to accept every kind of thing that has a PersistentDataContainer
wet breach
like import EntityPDC.setPDC and then just use it?
this is an example of a utility class
wary remnant
Adding a private constructor and marking the class as final is a good convention on top of that
wet breach
Adding a private constructor and marking the class as final is a good convention...
yeah only thing I didn't do with that class lol, but all well
point is, all those methods don't rely on each other, and don't rely on anything else and are self contained
therefore, they are static and can be used anywhere without issues
storm crystal
so I could make damage formula method static without a problem?
and use it in several parts of code like abilities or simple damage by player
and same for FileManager that reads stuff from configs?
wet breach
sure, but do be careful though with statics. Anything static will never go away and is always loaded
so its something to not over use π
if your damage formula is always going to be used regardless it may be worth making it static as it would improve stuff
storm crystal
yeah as you said
good for pure utility
thats the kind of help I appreciate and am happy to hear
altho I get that not everyone has time or simply wants to explain
wary remnant
Yes, but try to make sure to not reinvent the wheel and think about making stuff static twice, not everything should be a utility class.
You should stick to the native configuration stuff as long as it fits your needs rather than shoving everything in a "manager"
storm crystal
but still that'd be better than just slapping with "you lack fundamentals, go back"
wet breach
well I think learning about static is something you should learn early on as I consider it something as part of the basics
storm crystal
Yes, but try to make sure to not reinvent the wheel and think about making stuff...
I know I wouldnt call everything utility for sure
I needed FileManager cuz I use several configs
wet breach
many people don't learn statics properly and either over use it, or shy away from it because they don't know how to use them properly
so its better you learn about them early as well as how to use them or rather know what the rules are when a static could be used
river oracle
Iβd say Writable or Modifiable might be nice prefixes
:3 thx conclube
wet breach
if an object is never going to go away, IE like your main class, it is acceptable for said object to be static, exception being if you want many objects then you don't want it static
classes, variables, and methods can all be static and are independent of each other
enums are by default static classes just fyi
they can not be anything else
storm crystal
Are stuff like enums or lambda important for plugin making
wet breach
sure I will show you another handy thing
river oracle
Are stuff like enums or lambda important for plugin making
enums sometimes lambdas a very important
ivory sleet
Are stuff like enums or lambda important for plugin making
yesnt
ivory sleet
its good to know, but its not like there dont exist other solutions

does broadcastmessage not support utf8
chat in mc is UTF8
grand flint
Bukkit.broadcastMessage(ChatColor.WHITE + player.getName() + ChatColor.DARK_GRAY + " Β» " + ChatColor.GRAY + message);
wet breach
also, java by default is utf8 as well, unless you set it otherwise specifically
wet breach
`Bukkit.broadcastMessage(ChatColor.WHITE + player.getName() + ChatColor.DARK_GRA...
use the escape code for this character instead
gleaming yarrow
Yeah ig
wet breach
`Bukkit.broadcastMessage(ChatColor.WHITE + player.getName() + ChatColor.DARK_GRA...
\U+00BB
gleaming yarrow
its as if its saving it as text somewhere then fucking it up and loading it again
wet breach
thats the escape code for that character, guarantees it to show up properly
gleaming yarrow
but yeah try escaping it
grand flint
wdym ecapin it
wet breach
thats the UTF-8 code for that character
wet breach
java knows what UTF-8 characters are, hence can use them directly, and also known as escape code since you have to prepend with a backslash
gleaming yarrow
You want Dark gray right
grand flint
\U+00BB this is dark gray?
gleaming yarrow
thats just the symbol
wet breach
thats the double arrow character
gleaming yarrow
you need to add an 8 after that
grand flint
oh ye i assumed so
gleaming yarrow
Ah wait
grand flint
what
gleaming yarrow
mb
grand flint
what are u guys on about π
Bukkit.broadcastMessage(ChatColor.WHITE + player.getName() + ChatColor.DARK_GRAY + " \\U+00BB " + ChatColor.GRAY + message); no?
wet breach
I am not on about anything, just telling you what the utf8 code is for that character
which guarantees it to show up properly everywhere
wet breach
when there is issues like you are having, yes
grand flint
no i mean like
in config files
it translates the symbol to its utf8 code right?
in the code
wet breach
depends how you its read from the file and is done a slightly differently from config files
grand flint
ahh ye i get it
so i wouldnt need to code a system like that for config files
it should most likely work if im just reading from there
wet breach
most times yes
unless someone changed the encoding of the file π
I think snakeyaml enforces utf-8 though if I am not mistaken
wet breach
should be single slash
wet breach
also doesn't need quotes either
gleaming yarrow
and yeah no quotes cause otherwise itll treat it as literal text
wet breach
it should be a single slash, don't remember needing two
gleaming yarrow
one slash
grand flint
wet breach
hmmm
gleaming yarrow
can we get the entire line of code
eternal oxide
show the whole line
grand flint
Bukkit.broadcastMessage(ChatColor.GRAY + player.getName() + ChatColor.DARK_GRAY + \U+00BB + ChatColor.GRAY + message);
gleaming yarrow
gl
remote swallow
if you use the bungee chatcolor its not an enum
grand flint
ye
remote swallow
but wrap the unicode in a string
eternal oxide
now you double escape as it's Java
eternal oxide
yep
eternal oxide
Its hard to advise when you only show snippets. Best to give it all at the start
grand flint
but i gave the entire broadcast message
what else could u possibly need for that π€
gleaming yarrow
dunno what to tell you blud
eternal oxide
sec let me open my ide. Check how to use unicode
grand flint
@EventHandler

would you
try it wihtout the +

thats how ive mostly done it whenever it needed to be done elsewhere
never needed to do it in intellij though it was mostly for stuff like server motds

Hey, so currently I'm making a custom PathfinderGoal. Basically I'm trying to detect if there is a block in the path of the entity and if so make it jump over the block. Currently it does work/jump over the block but only when the block is set inside the mob (i'm using a giant). I can't seem to come up with an efficient way to get a block in front of the mob without it being inside it's body for this to work. Any help would be appreciated, ill show the two methods i went about it so far below. Also to note im using 1.8.8
Method 1:
Location entityLocation = entity.getBukkitEntity().getLocation();
World world = entityLocation.getWorld();
Vector entityDirection = entityLocation.getDirection();
BlockIterator blockIterator = new BlockIterator(world, entityLocation.toVector(), entityDirection,0.0, 2);
while (blockIterator.hasNext()) {
org.bukkit.block.Block block = blockIterator.next();
System.out.println(block);
if (block.getType() != Material.AIR) {
System.out.println("Block detected");
return true;
} else
// System.out.println("Air detected");
return false; ```
Method 2:
Location entityLocation = entity.getBukkitEntity().getLocation();
World world = entityLocation.getWorld();
org.bukkit.block.Block currentBlock = world.getBlockAt(entityLocation);
BlockFace entityFacing = getEntityFacing(entityLocation.getDirection());
org.bukkit.block.Block blockInFront = currentBlock.getRelative(entityFacing);
if (blockInFront.getType() != Material.AIR) {
System.out.println("block detected");
return true;
} ```
Probably because the giants hitbox is inside the giant
midnight solar
Hm that is true, anyway to so called 'avoid' the hitbox to actually make it work lol
wet breach
Might have to do some hacky thing and make it levitate at the right time to make it appear right lol. Wont be easy and will have to play around with it
eternal oxide
you are only checking 1 block in front of the location
midnight solar
Even with it set to 20 it still only 'jumps' over the block when the block is inside the body
eternal oxide
you don;t use the hitbox at all
wet breach
you don;t use the hitbox at all
I reference the hit box because a giants size is smaller according to the server then what the giant appears
eternal oxide
yeah, they stopped using giants for a reason π
wet breach
Lol
wet breach
Even with it set to 20 it still only 'jumps' over the block when the block is in...
The only solution is what i said. You will have to play around how far from the giants real size is to where their feet appear and do some levitating hack lol
It may or may not still look right but that is about the best you can do for this
midnight solar
Yeah it makes sense now that you mentioned the hitbox lol, thanks

clever crescent
currently learning how to make a plugin so sorry if this is a basic asf question, but is this how i would format a command that i want to be /verify [PlayerName] [TwitchName] and for all intents and purposes i would just want it to store both TwitchName and PlayerName as a string of some form to a file or something (if thats possible, would also greatly appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction ^-^)
commands:
verify:
description: gets and stores twitch username with player name.
usage: /verify [PlayerName | TwitchName]
aliases: [Verify, verify]
permission: verify
permission-message: you do not have permission to verify?...
kind hatch
currently learning how to make a plugin so sorry if this is a basic asf question...
Some things you should probably fix with this alone are
- Removing the redundant alias that is the same as the command.
- Making a better permission node. (Usually plugins follow the
<pluginName>.<permission>format. Ex:essentials.banorminecraft.command.ban)
As for how you might want to approach a system like this, you'll want to create a command and use the command arguments to compare what the player entered.
You shouldn't save any data to the config file as that would just be bad practice. However, you can save your information to a file using FileConfiguration.
File file = new File("datafile.yml");
FileConfiguration data = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(file);
data.getString("path.to.your.value");
data.setString("path.you.want.to.edit", "value");
data.save(file);
@clever crescent
river oracle
God I'm in data structures but I haven't gotten to this yet. I essentially have a node which knows about 6 nodes. I need to navigate through every node within the system. I'm not sure about a great way to do this though.
public record StructureNode(@Nullable StructureNode north, @Nullable StructureNode south, @Nullable StructureNode east,
@Nullable StructureNode west, @Nullable StructureNode up, @Nullable StructureNode down, @NotNull BlockData data) {
each structure node knows about every node around it basically and the data it contains
I wouldn't really want to use recursion here as that would probably kill the call stack
maybe there is a better way to go about this too? idk I'm just trying to find a nice way to build and store structures within memory
I could just run through each direction and add to a call stack, but I feel like that overhead would get insane.
MultiBlock structures are a real pain

tyyyy this helps a ton ^-^ as for the permisson nodes i havent gotten to that just yet, only have it there cause tutorial man said to put it hehe
clever crescent

when you're saying "path.to.your.value" and "path.you.want.to.edit" does this mean that im pulling the value im inputting into the command? and is path that i want to edit in reference to location in the file or like whether im appending to the file?
currently how im formatiing it
{PlayerName} {TwitchName}
{PlayerName} {TwitchName}
{PlayerName} {TwitchName}
{PlayerName} {TwitchName}
{PlayerName} {TwitchName}
{PlayerName} {TwitchName}
@river oracle
Maybe treat the nodes using a vector as direction
Also idk how u won't use recursion for something like that
You could maybe make a queue and while loop ig
kind hatch
when you're saying "path.to.your.value" and "path.you.want.to.edit" does this me...
YAML files work using sections and subsections. In order to access a subsection using the Spigot API, you use the . to specify that you have a subsection.
section:
subsection: test
subsection2: 15.9
sub-subsection: 8
If you wanted to get the value of subsection2, you'd use FileConfiguration#getDouble("section.subsection2").
If you wanted to set the value of sub-subsection, you'd use FileConfiguration#set("section.subsection2.sub-subsection", 9)
kind hatch
Oop, made a mistake. You can't actually have a value on the direct parent of a subsection.
subsection2 is formatted incorrectly, but the principle is the same
section:
subsection: test
subsection2:
sub-subsection: 8
It would have to look like that
river oracle
Maybe treat the nodes using a vector as direction
Might jus t approach it from a different way multiblocks got me going crazy
kind hatch
```yml
section:
subsection: test
subsection2:
sub-subsection: 8
```
And of course, the names of the sections can be whatever you want. Just be aware that some names are reserved for the yaml parser and might not correlate to the value you want if you're not careful.
clever crescent
so instead i would do?
but does this imply that im not able to append a new section to the YML file?
like would i be better off storing 2 raw strings in a TXT or like a different file type?
player1:
PlayerName: ingameusername
TwitchName: twitchusername
cause the end goal is to make players when they join do /verify [minecraftname] [twitchname]
and then store that and compare later
kind hatch
You can append however many sections you want to a yml file. #set() should automatically create the section if it doesn't exist.
If it doesn't for whatever reason, you can use FileConfiguration#createSection("section.path")
Also, something you may want to consider is using the player's UUID instead of their name. Since player names can be changed at any time, your data may become outdated and behave in a way that you don't want. It would also cut down on the number of lines you need to write to disk.
03687ca0-30cf-4c3c-8c1d-3b2dd75c3ff0: "MyTwitchName"
That's my UUID btw
clever crescent
oooo i like that idea
so instead of creating a section that is the players name with twitch name as the value, i just pull their player ID and set that inplace of username instead.
i think where im getting lost is how i translate the data i input into the command into a string that i pass to the file
kind hatch
FileConfiguration#set() is a flexible method. It has tons of overloaded methods so you can pass in whatever data type you need.
If you wanted to store data like the example above, you'd just call it like this,
datafile.set(player.getUniqueId().toString(), "TheirTwitchName");
If you wanted to put all that data into a subsection, you could format your file like this.
data:
03687ca0-30cf-4c3c-8c1d-3b2dd75c3ff0: "MyTwitchName"
Then you just need to prepend the section name to the set method. datafile.set("data." + player.getUniqueId().toString(), "TheirTwitchName");
How you store your data is up to you, but since these files are easily editable, I like to keep them as easy to understand for the end user as possible while keeping it concise.
wet breach
How you store your data is up to you, but since these files are easily editable,...
Thanks, i just found a new conversation prompt that i didnt know existed
Went searching in the api in relation to what you were stating and inadvertently found a new prompt lmao
clever crescent
How you store your data is up to you, but since these files are easily editable,...
this makes A TON more sense than it initially did haha, i had a fundamental misunderstanding of what you meant by the #set() so i was looking around for a different thing i hadnt used haha. tysm haha its super weird wrapping my head around things that are similar to base java stuff but slightly different haha
i still have to figure out how to pass the data the player gives the command but that should theoretically be a google search away
kind hatch
I still need to learn how to use those. lol
wet breach
My plugin uses the conversation api
I dont so anything too fancy with it. But what is nice about it is you can use it to kind of simulate chat
In case you want to get fancy with entities and channels
I make use of the channel bit so that normal chat doesnt interfere and when they are done they still retain normal chat history
Maybe this weekend i will update it
Going to implement display entities into it
Which also means new api as well
kind hatch
Ohh, I think I see how that works now. Just a bit of chaining.
wet breach
You can chain them but dont have to. And you can loop back around too
Just have to call the relevant prompt
Which i do implement in a couple of places where they dont give a correct response
Or if the response given doesnt parse properly
kind hatch
Ahh yep. I see that too.
wet breach
Also i specify a keyword as well so they can exit out as well
kind hatch
That propagates all the way down right? So it's only defined once?
wet breach
Yep
kind hatch
Nice
wet breach
And the context can hold arbitrary amounts of data too
Kind of like a cache for the duration of the conversation
You set your own key and data and it also has some predefined keys if i remember right. Been a while since i messed with it lol
Its sad though its one of the most under used api as well given how old it is
Existed since 1.6-1.7
kind hatch
I thought the Conversation API was added in 1.12 or 1.14 lol. (Yet another reason for me to complain about not having @since tags) reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
wet breach
Lmao
Just have to remember is all
I think this might be overwhelming the new person
kind hatch
Maybe. I kinda dropped a lot of info. Could have gone further into technical details though. >:)
I work with config files far too often.
wet breach
Ironically that is what i use the conversation api for
clever crescent
im definitely having some form of fundamental misunderstanding lol nothing ends up in the .yml file after I type the command, dispite me passing the args into the value at data.set("data." + player.getUniqueId().toString(), TwitchName); and i have a red underline on .save in data.save(file);
public class Verify implements CommandExecutor
{
String TwitchName;
@Override
public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command command, String label, String [] args)
{
TwitchName = args[0];
Bukkit.getLogger().info(TwitchName);
if(!(sender instanceof Player))
{
sender.sendMessage("Only players can send this command");
return true;
}
Player player = (Player) sender;
File file = new File("PlayerStreamData.yml");
FileConfiguration data = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(file);
data.set("data." + player.getUniqueId().toString(), TwitchName);
data.save(file);
return true;
}
}
//this is how i initialize the file on server startup in the "main" class
try {
File PlayerStreamlist = new File("PlayerStreamData.yml");
if(PlayerStreamlist.createNewFile()) {
Bukkit.getLogger().info("Player Whitelist File Created:" + PlayerStreamlist.getName());
} else {
Bukkit.getLogger().info("file " + PlayerStreamlist.getName() + " already exists");
}
} catch (IOException e) {
Bukkit.getLogger().info("an error has ocurred while creating or checking for player stream list file");
e.printStackTrace();
}
To make it easier for a server admin or mod to edit the tutorial stuff
kind hatch
im definitely having some form of fundamental misunderstanding lol nothing ends ...
The reason for the red line is because #save() throws an IOException. You can just surround it in a try catch.
wet breach
Make sure to implement a nice error message too
Its good practice to just not only catch the exception but actually do something lol
Or you can just mystify your users or yourself with some stack traces like most do
kind hatch
Ironically that is what i use the conversation api for
You may also need to specify the parent directory for the file. Which can be done with JavaPlugin#getDataFolder()
File file = new File(plugin.getDataFolder(), "PlayerStreamData.yml");
You'll also need to make sure the file exists before you can save data to it.
wet breach
Maybe should have pinged them? Lol

the making sure it exists is what the try catch in main is for, unless that doesnt do what i think it does lol
also il ltry the parent directory rq
wet breach
Anytime you mess with io it needs to be surrounded with try catch unless your lazy and state your method throws io
But you will still at some point at least catch it one time
kind hatch
the making sure it exists is what the try catch in main is for, unless that does...
Oh, I missed that lol. Everything should work as long as the file exists before you try and save data to it.
wet breach
Saving data still throws io exception
Because even though file exists there can be issues with writing
Cause of perms, no more room etc
kind hatch
true true
clever crescent
try {
data.save(file);
} catch(IOException e) {
Bukkit.getLogger().info("oops no save hehe c:");
e.printStackTrace();
}
that would do the trick i assume?

Yep

Yeah that works
At least with the nice message makes it easy where this error comes from lol

Door is bent to hell on one side so when it closes you cant lock it. The door has a place holder for the lock we use so that it makes it nearly impossible to break the lock. We have round locks
Doubt duct tape will fix this lol
Either someone on the previous shift did this and said nothing or someone ran into it again

Not really a big deal if someone broke it, but people are dumb in speaking up lol

One day i will get a new door

cause it would really fuck with someone if a boss death summons another boss. people would be pissed.
cause like well they arent easy lmao

If it's th same mob spawning then you have some plugin messing stuff up

Do you have some kind of task for spawning?

All I am doing is checking for every spawn event and there's a chance for each one of my monsters to take that place. highest chance is 11% rn lowest is 4%.

What does it link to?
hushed spindle
nothing
zenith gate
Alright. How often does it check and did you consider if certain limits are hit?
it checks for every entity spawn, and if one of the spawn chances hits it continues the rest if not it just ignores it. idk of any limits
hushed spindle
it just says it can be spoofed by the client and so is inaccurate
wet breach
If the limit is 89% full. That means your 11% guarantees a spawn and the minimum still yields 93% odds
hushed spindle
getting the player location and checking the block under it also isnt always accurate because it doesnt account for the player sneaking off the edge of a block so i was thinking using the players bounding box and checking the 4 bottom corners of it and seeing if theres a block under that
but i reckon that'll fail for blocks that arent complete like fences

You are forgetting to factor the server mob limits as a whole and per chunk
So here is another example
zenith gate
Yeah but it's being replaced no? im cancelling the orignal and using my own.
it should just stay the same.
wet breach
Depends how many times its called i guess lol
hybrid spoke
could it be that you recall the event with your summon
zenith gate
its only when it spawns tho. death shouldnt trigger it.
zenith gate
could it be that you recall the event with your summon
either it spawns naturally or forced by a command, they both do the same thing, forced or natural spawn by taking somethings place.
wet breach
The spawn rate for trying to spawn a mob must be fast enough that it appears mob spawn is guaranteed. You should add a delay to counter this. But probably should print a debug message for every spawn along with time
zenith gate
how would i delay it?
wet breach
You would just create a delayed task or better yet just create a que management system to handle your custom spawns and be independent of spawning all together and dont have to worry how many you cancel except continue intercepting the command ones
Should solve your issue and basically give you all the control you want
zenith gate
I wouldn't even know how to create the que system, and I just still don't understand why it doesn't work properly. any other time if done something like this i didnt have this issue. But I changed how I create, and manage them, I didn't really change how they were spawned.
all i did was make some things easier down the road
wet breach
Well as i said it could be the spawn rate. If the mob limit is high and amount of mobs total low and there is plenty of areas to spawn the server can easily spawn 20 mobs every few ticks until about half or so full towards the limit
zenith gate
could i check if i've reached the mob limit, and remove something else instead to make room?
wet breach
Lets say 20 mobs try to spawn each tick for 20 ticks. How often will 11% be hit? Lol
wet breach
could i check if i've reached the mob limit, and remove something else instead t...
Probably
These limits are in spigot.yml
zenith gate
if i increased those would that fix it? cause that also seems like a good option.
wet breach
You would want to decrease
zenith gate
i thought we had to make room for it to spawn? if i lowered it woouldnt that make it worse?
wet breach
There is spawn rates, overall server entity limits and per chunk limits
zenith gate
ohhh
wet breach
Make a copy of spigot.yml so you have defaults handy. Messing with these can take time lol

How far you can be for those types of entities to move or do things

wet breach
So animals will move around if your 32 blocks or closer but once farther they stop
Or freeze to be more accurate

Check bukkit.yml then
zenith gate
yep spawn-limits is here
spawn-limits:
monsters: 70
animals: 10
water-animals: 5
water-ambient: 20
water-underground-creature: 5
axolotls: 5
ambient: 15
chunk-gc:
period-in-ticks: 600
ticks-per:
animal-spawns: 400
monster-spawns: 1
water-spawns: 1
water-ambient-spawns: 1
water-underground-creature-spawns: 1
axolotl-spawns: 1
ambient-spawns: 1
autosave: 6000
Which of these do i modify?
just the spawn limits or also the ticks-per?
wet breach
Ticks per is how many globally will try to spawn
While 400 may seem high for animals have to remember not all spawns will succeed
zenith gate
do we know aprox how many fail?
wet breach
Spawn limits, is how many globally and i think the chunks one resides in spigot.yml
wet breach
do we know aprox how many fail?
Each entity type has their own conditions that lets it succeed
zenith gate
that makes sense
wet breach
So for example spiders. A spider will try to spawn if the light level is low enough and there is at least a 1 block space for it. If it comes from a spawner the limit is 16 blocks all around the spawner
zenith gate
Okay, so how would i adjust these to fix my problem? We'd want it lower?
wet breach
Well this is where you get to have fun lol
zenith gate
fuck with it till it works lmao
that'll be tommorows task then. its 3;30am here. At least i know what the problem is now.
I appreciate the help!
wet breach
fuck with it till it works lmao
Or you can just implement your own system and not mess with this up to you lol

Is it okay if I have static methods and event listeners that are registered in a class?

Generally or in my particular case?
chrome beacon
Your use case

Olivo is a newbie, please explain it to him
a very smart newbie tho
storm crystal
Your use case
One for calculating damage and one for mob health bar management
I doubt that every class that'd use any of those would need to have separate instance
But im curious if I can mix it like that
Static methods and event listeners in one class
wet breach
hey how i can find for read craftBukkit code
Its in the buildtools directory under work
For the nms stuff and then the cb and spigot is in their respective directories
Can import them into your ide if you want
Stash only gives you the api and git patches
wet breach
One for calculating damage and one for mob health bar management
Any method or object that manages something generally shouldnt be static
Singleton is one thing, but static it typically shouldnt. Reason being if for some reason you need to clear it out to refresh you wont be able to
If its static
storm crystal
So I keep it as is?
wet breach
Yep wont hurt anything. Also later down the road you might want to do some abstraction with it or something else. If it's static this makes it harder to do and you end up changing it back anyways

Rewrite your sentence so we can understand it

Would there be an easy way to find an items display name (when it's not set) other than getting its type and then putting it to lower case, and capitalizing each letter at start of a new word? So NETHERITE_SWORD becomes Netherite Sword?
Or is it just something you have to sit and create a translation for each item?
I found out that if you do meta.getDisplayName() from an ItemMeta, you won't get any unless the item has been set a name by an anvil or the .setDisplayName function

well, you can't, because items are different for users with different locale

why do you need that tho
maybe you can do smth else
I mean for cases like displaying your current held item to chat you can use ChatComponents and Locale settings

Nah ill just remove underscore etc etc.
Its way easier. All I'm doing is making a death message hehe
Just wanted to include the weapon name if any item was used
Next step is to learn how to link the item in the chat so it looks even cooler

well, only display the item name if it has one
otherwise just say "Player died from some shit"

learn OOP and just separate stuff
2 instances of something is kinda cringe in general(except stuff which is mass-produced(like all zombies in the world) or has a hard but big limit(all server players))
storm crystal
So if I want to use those methods I make one instance in main class and pass it to other classes?
Wouldnt it be easier to just make it static?

That gets the language that is set

@spare hazel did you set api-version to at least 1.13 in plugin.yml?

okay

upper hazel
why do some plugins have a folder with a bunch of modules?
tender shard
because they use NMS
upper hazel
what his mean
tender shard
NMS is version specific code
it uses minecraft internals
not just spigot api
and those change each version
wet breach
why do some plugins have a folder with a bunch of modules?
This helps separate classes that are the same but for different mc versions
tender shard
https://blog.jeff-media.com/maven-multi-module-setup-for-supporting-different-nms-versions/ here's a guide on how to do that. but you should avoid using NMS unless it's absolutely necessary
upper hazel
support for different versions?
tender shard
NMS is not needed in 99% of cases on modern spigot versions
it used to be required a lot in old versions, e.g. to send action bar messages in 1.8
but in 1.20 there is very little reason to use it
using NMS means your plugin will most likely break on major updates
gleaming yarrow
well yeah for simple stuff it aint needed esp if you dont mind using protocol lib
tender shard
<@632994436401594368> nothing changed
add debug statements
before every return, print out why it returns
spare hazel
oh i know why
tender shard
why?

Did u register it
upper hazel
This helps separate classes that are the same but for different mc versions
does this mean that all these modules are different versions of the plugin?

e.getItems().clear();
e.getBlock().getDrops().clear();

still no resultWhats nms command
tender shard
```java

you still check e.getBlock().getType()
rotund ravine
does this mean that all these modules are different versions of the plugin?
Only some part of it
