LMFAOOO

[grand flint]

moron

go to sleep

im doing it

[molten hearth]

u sleep first

fine

https://tenor.com/view/bedge-pepe-sleep-gif-24023312

[grand flint]

is this his question?

@molten hearth u do it idk wtf he said

[molten hearth]

nah that wasnt for us 😭

[grand flint]

oh okk

[young knoll]

I imagine it fires the the fish event with reel in state

[grand flint]

wth is the fish event

[young knoll]

But that isn’t exclusive

PlayerFishEvent

[molten hearth]

yea but i cant see one for the line snapping

[grand flint]

so how does it snap

[young knoll]

Like I said I assume that just fires reel in

[molten hearth]

oh shit fr

well thats a bit problematic i guess because it doesnt differentiate between players manually reeling in and it snapping

[young knoll]

Check distance I guess

[grand flint]

cant u just check

if there is a loot or not

[molten hearth]

ya it fires another event if there's loot

i mean not another event

another thingy

[grand flint]

ye

so heck

check

if thats null

if so cancel event

[molten hearth]

but then are we gonna kidnap players until they find loot

[grand flint]

why

ok cancel it unless

its right click

[grand flint]

or they get a loot

ye dont cancel it if it is failed attempt, bite, caught entity, caught fish, in groud or reel in

else cancel it

[molten hearth]

then you're cancelling fishing in general no

[fading gull]

which i populate manually?

[young knoll]

You can

Or via a loop or whatever other methods

[fading gull]

alright thanks

[grand flint]

no moron

i said dont cancel

[molten hearth]

well no bc then ur cancelling FISHING

[grand flint]

dont talk to me

[molten hearth]

.

[grand flint]

@molten hearth i did it

[molten hearth]

no way fr

[grand flint]

ye

i just returned all the events

if it didnt return

i cancelled it

lmao

[molten hearth]

lmao

gud job

[grand flint]

im not talking to u

[molten hearth]

HUh why

[young knoll]

[grand flint]

ok come back to dm

[young knoll]

Stop edating smh

[pastel axle]

Hmm, is it expected that the following would be false? Correctly returns true for InventoryType.WORKBENCH.

Inventory inv = getServer().createInventory(new RecipeHolder(), InventoryType.FURNACE);
...
InventoryClickEvent.getInventory().getHolder() instanceof RecipeHolder

InventoryClickEvent.getInventory().getType() is correct

[river oracle]

its a limitation o9f the current API

you can't create inventories like that

[pastel axle]

Ah, nevermind, SPIGOT-4274

[young knoll]

Is that a custom inventory holder

[river oracle]

you'll never actually beable to create a working furnace like that

[young knoll]

😩

[river oracle]

its impossible

[pastel axle]

I don't want a working furnace. I want one where I can intercept click events (custom /recipe command)

[river oracle]

ahhh yeah you need NMS for that atm

currently a PR in the work to solve that

should see it around 1.21 probably

[pastel axle]

Hmm. Bummer. Because I was hoping to fix a bug in my plugin where players could just yoink items out of a furnace /recipe. I'll come up with another solution then.

[young knoll]

Can you not detect click events in a furnace gui

[pastel axle]

the event works fine itself, but checking whether it was opened by my code quick&easy will have to be another solution

[river oracle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-modern-approach-to-inventory-guis.594005/#post-4553427

this might help you

at keeping track of it

[young knoll]

Compare by instance or view

[river oracle]

current API has so many weird bugs, dya see the one recently where you can't use setItem in certain Inventory's created by Bukkti#createInventory

[young knoll]

Don’t make custom holder plz

[pastel axle]

To be fair, this is currently why it's a holder

Untouched for 9 years, not surprising things have changed 😛

[river oracle]

don't use InventoryHolders

but considering its so old best to learn now :P

[pastel axle]

for now I fix the bug another way, later I refactor the recipe command. Yep 🙂

[river oracle]

@young knoll I know I've been annoying about this for a whlie, but I would enjoy feedback about Inventory PR at some point, its getting to the point of being pretty much finalized so not much will change

[pastel axle]

I won't tell if you don't 😉 if (!(e.getView().getTitle().startsWith("Recipe:"))) return;

[river oracle]

title 💀

there is InventoryView#setTitle now

just a heads up

[pastel axle]

Yes I know 😉

[young knoll]

Can we just make inventory holder sealed :p

[river oracle]

that's actually smart

[young knoll]

Yeah I probably should look at it I’m just lazy

[river oracle]

I wouldn't be against it

[pastel axle]

probably a good idea?

[young knoll]

Won’t happen cuz it’ll break plugins and requires a java version bump

[river oracle]

I added the Commodore changes so you can just use old plugins just fine

[young knoll]

But hey one can dream

Ooh interesting

[river oracle]

MD_5 has held its not supposed to be implemented afaik

[young knoll]

I’ll see how my inventory framework handles it

And then yell at you when it explodes

[river oracle]

nothing should explode unless you're captilizing on the quirks that were bugs

such as having multiple people share the same InventoryView

[river oracle]

imho inventory frameworks should work around views no Inventories

or rather store state for an inventory and replicate it for multiple views

[young knoll]

I mean

[pastel axle]

huh interesting, createInventory supports setting the inventory title easily but the getTitle function for inventories is gone. Whoops :LUL:

[young knoll]

Mine just works with an inventory and then does a good ol openInventory

[river oracle]

its because inventories can't actually have titles under the hood

its bukkit making up for a legacy feature being gone in nms

[pastel axle]

yeah I remember learning that back when updating the plugin to support newer versions

[river oracle]

I know a bit too much about inventories so lmk if ytou have any questions

[pastel axle]

I think it was for our.. backpack command?

[young knoll]

Yeah Bukkit yeeted inventory.getName

That broke a lot of stuff

[pastel axle]

for good reason imo

[river oracle]

technically its back in my PR 😉

[young knoll]

Wtf hax

[river oracle]

it needs to be unfortunately :(

with MinecraftInventory gone the only thing to hold the title is CraftInventory

Granted it's only there for legacy purposes and would be null given you use the new api

[young knoll]

Now old plugins are gonna come back from the dead

Like zombies

[knotty aspen]

Inventories can have titles in vanilla tho?

[river oracle]

No cuz it's no in bukkit

[river oracle]

No they can't

[knotty aspen]

Rename a chest and open it, you got an inventory with a title

[river oracle]

That's a Menu

Not an inventory

Completely different

[knotty aspen]

not really but whatever

[river oracle]

No really

In NMS it's wildly different

[knotty aspen]

but its the thing plugins should care about

[river oracle]

Inventories are basically just the glorified lists of Items

[river oracle]

no plugins should also be concerned about the InventoryView aka Menu

just because the API wasn't able to allow plugins to care for a long time doesn't mean we shouldn't switch now

further now more than ever its becoming increasingly important to distinguish between a InventoryView and a Inventory

or we end up with AnvilInventory which is a disgusting implementation

[knotty aspen]

the whole inventory api is kinda not great tbh

[river oracle]

its actually not bad

it just needed some tweaks

the base idea of the Inventory API is actually quite great its implementation was what was subpar

but by fixing its implementation the Inventory API will be much better. Much like other older API's all it needed was a little love

[young knoll]

Pretty sure you could apply that to almost anything

APIs
Servers
Plugins

… me

[river oracle]

sometimes you just need to give something a little love

so proud of everyone who made this GUI
I love using it

[pastel axle]

Hmm, this seems fishy.

[14:30:57] [Server thread/WARN]: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "String.startsWith(String)" because "text" is null
[14:30:57] [Server thread/WARN]:        at org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_20_R2.map.CraftMapView.getId(CraftMapView.java:36)
[14:30:57] [Server thread/WARN]:        at org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_20_R2.entity.CraftPlayer.sendMap(CraftPlayer.java:852)

Wonder if it's because I'm using outdated calls or whether there's an actual bug related to maps..

For reference, this is just a

    private void updateMap(Player p, MapView mv) {
        p.sendMap(mv);
    }

after

// args[1] = "close"
String sscale = args[1].toUpperCase();
Scale mvs;
mvs = Scale.valueOf(sscale);
mv.setScale(mvs);
updateMap(p, mv);

So I don't think I'm doing anything special?

        String text = worldMap.id;
        Preconditions.checkState(text.startsWith("map_"), "Map has a invalid ID");

🤔

[bitter rune]

how do you get the craft entity or crature and the handle?

[river oracle]

cast

the handle you just get by doing CraftEntity#getHandle

after you cast

[torn shuttle]

@wet breach oh no

uh oh

[wet breach]

😮

[torn shuttle]

we got ourselves a race

[chrome beacon]

👀

[wet breach]

I say it leaves you with about 3GB left

[torn shuttle]

place your bets

I say 20gb

yknow I should probably just remove the unedited timelapse footage I accidentally recorded in 4k 60 fps

fun fact these are not even the files I am going to be using anyway, I had to convert them to mp4 to work with my editor

[exotic obsidian]

how can i save the player stats from database before leave?

[river oracle]

PlayerQuitEvent

[exotic obsidian]

i got error

[torn shuttle]

well I don't know how low it got but it cleared it

[wet breach]

lol

[river oracle]

how do you create a map with FastUtils

I'm trying to create a Short2ObjectMap i'm not really sure how

nothing in Short2ObjectMaps seems relavent for just initalizing an empty map

wait nvm I figured it out, but which one to chose 💀 idk the difference between most of these.

I'll just do the OpenHasMap and hope nothing explodes

[carmine mica]

there are multiple implementations of it

you probably want Short2ObjectOpenHashMap

just use your IDE to look at implementations of the Short2ObjectMap interface and find constructors

[river oracle]

    private static byte[] unpack(short packed) {
        return new byte[]{(byte) (packed >> 8), (byte) (packed >> 4 & 0xF), (byte) (packed & 0xF)};
    }
``` lol I love bit shifting so scuffed

[quaint mantle]

how

10TB?!?!?

[rigid otter]

Can we change the player UUID? I've tried changing it in PlayerProfile but it does not work.

[rotund ravine]

Are you an online mode server?

[rigid otter]

No

[rotund ravine]

Why do you want to change the uuid

[rigid otter]

Since it is still useless, so I would manage a new UUID system myself.

So, can we really change?

[rotund ravine]

Not supported by the api in any case so you would have to do some hacky stuff

[river oracle]

yeah you can so first thing you need to do is make a custom client and distribute it to all of your players to load up and join your server with. Second off you'll want to fork spigot and add further support for your custom UUID system

its really only 1 custom client and server fork away!

couldn't be more simple

[rigid otter]

Ahh

Thank you anyway!

[twin venture]

Any suggestions for advanced cosmetics system for a skywars plugin?
kits , win dance, kill effect .. etc etc etc
also cages ?

[rotund ravine]

Why is kits included in a cosmetic plugin

[twin venture]

its for a skywars plugin :p

[rotund ravine]

Oh yeah nvm

[twin venture]

listening to your suggestions ..?

[rotund ravine]

No clue. But bing has a few ideas

Some possible suggestions for advanced cosmetics system for a skywars plugin are:

• Trails: Players can choose different particle effects that follow them as they move around the map. For example, fire, smoke, hearts, stars, etc.
• Taunts: Players can perform various animations or sounds to mock or celebrate their opponents. For example, laughing, dancing, clapping, etc.
• Balloons: Players can have a floating balloon attached to them that displays their name, rank, or custom message. The balloon can also have different shapes and colors.
• Pets: Players can have a small companion that follows them around and helps them in combat. The pet can be a mob, an item, or a custom entity. For example, a dog, a sword, a dragon, etc.
• Cages: Players can customize the appearance of their cage before the game starts. The cage can have different materials, patterns, or effects. For example, glass, wood, iron, rainbow, etc.

[twin venture]

i mean the structure of the code

[rotund ravine]

Hmm?

[quaint mantle]

SOLID principles.

[bitter rune]

pet following mechanics are a pain

[quaint mantle]

I asked chat gpt do simple pet following and it worked :)

[earnest socket]

anyone know how I can get an NMS block state from a material?

[sullen marlin]

?xy

[undone axle]

http://xyproblem.info/

[rotund ravine]

For?

[earnest socket]

I am trying to change a bunch of blocks quickly. I read this post https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/methods-for-changing-a-massive-amount-of-blocks-up-to-14m-blocks-s.395868/ and it says that using nms to change blocks is faster

but it doesnt' seem to be in mojang mappings

[rotund ravine]

How many blocks?

[earnest socket]

like 200 thousand

making a big explosion basically

[rotund ravine]

I would just space it out and use bukkits methods rbh

Tbh

[minor junco]

I'd have a look in the underlying source from spigot to see what is happening when you set a block (I assume update some kind of mapping and send the packet to all players?) if it's something you could manually do after the blocks have been set then go for it, otherwise split up the iterations in custom sized chunks an run them asynchronously

That would've been my solution to this problem

[shadow night]

Most likely it's just calling some nms method and converting the material to the nms one

[minor junco]

Probably, but that wouldn't explain why the setblock method is so much slower than invoking the method handle manually

The conversion of material to NMS material certainly happens at O(1) no?

[shadow night]

Who knows, it's bukkit code

[minor junco]

Fair

[minor junco]

so apparently the setBlockData method invokes WorldServer#sendBlockUpdated which then invokes ChunkProviderServer#blockChanged that is calling PlayerChunk#blockChanged - maybe the root of the problem lies in here

[shadow zinc]

where can I find some good resources on how properly use packets?

additionally, other than protoclollib, is there any good packet util?

[earnest socket]

I tried both the bukkit method and nms method

I timed both

they do seem pretty random

with the same amount of blocks, sometimes bukkit is faster while nms is slower

and other times it's the opposite

[earnest socket]

I can use block.setType() asynchronously?

[echo basalt]

No

❤️

[sullen wharf]

use a scheduler

how do i use that with gradle xd

[lost matrix]

You can try this
https://github.com/typecraft-io/gradle-specialsource

[tropic saddle]

thx

[zealous osprey]

Hey, quick question, hopefully.
I'm pretty sure that there is a lib for opening a browser tab and doing actions in it. Anyone know how one is called, I can't seem to find one.

[lost matrix]

You mean something like Selenium?

[zealous osprey]

Yeah, I think so. Gotta test.

[night whale]

hey I have a question where can I find on spigot: disable-unloaded-chunk-enderpearl-exploit

[lost matrix]

You mean through code?

[night whale]

yes

[lost matrix]

This is how you access the configs as YamlConfigurations. Just need to get the config entries through a path, like you normally do with FileConfiguration.

[shadow zinc]

how can I get the startup flags used for the server?

[night whale]

i dont can send a picture

[lost matrix]

?img

[undone axle]

Can't send images? That's because you're not verified! Use !verify to complete verification.
Alternatively, you can upload screenshots to any image hosting site and share the link.

Here's some screenshot utilities that can use to upload images.
Lightshot: https://prnt.sc
Imgur: https://imgur.com/upload
Flameshot: https://flameshot.org

[lost matrix]

I think you need some sort of instrumentation for that. Try the RuntimeMXBean.

[chrome beacon]

ManagementFactory.getRuntimeMXBean().getInputArguments() from what I can find online

#help-server

[fervent gale]

what's the best a cleanest way to refresh a custom gui?

i've tried like 3 diff things and nothing works lmao

[shadow zinc]

just open a new one?

[fervent gale]

wym?

[shadow zinc]

from my experience, simply opening another gui while another one is open is quite seamless

[fervent gale]

just have a runnable check the title and if it matches reopen it?

[shadow zinc]

well it depends for you

idk how you want to do it

but the general idea still stands

[fervent gale]

would that be a simple way?

[shadow zinc]

yeah thats good

or something more robust by checking the inventory instance

either or

[fervent gale]

wym instance?

[glad prawn]

Does RGB/Hex affect performance?

[hazy parrot]

doubt tbh

[shadow zinc]

such as storing the inventory in a map of some sorts

and removing it on close

[fervent gale]

hmm

[shadow zinc]

just check if they are the same

wait

nvm

thats entirely different

but you get the idea

[fervent gale]

ok thanks

i got an idea now

[grim hound]

what would be the most efficient way

to apply a remapping function on all of

ConcurrentHashMap's entries

[storm crystal]

anyone got up to date SQLite tutorial?

[chrome beacon]

There shouldn't be any major changes

so looking at older guides should be fine

[weak meteor]

how can i get all folder .json file?

like, i have a folder named /kits/ in plugin data folder

how do i get all files of that folder

all sons?

children*

[hazy parrot]

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/io/File.html#listFiles--

[weak meteor]

thanks

[weak meteor]

how do i represent the folder in a file?

cause im doing this:

and throws a npe in the for loop

i guess im getting wrong the file

[young knoll]

Does the file exist

[weak meteor]

ye

oh

no it doesnt

got the name wrong

now ig?

yea it worked

[hazy parrot]

i mean sure, but there wont be any files

if it doesn't exist

[weak meteor]

ye thats the problem

so the array is going to be null?

cause i got one created

[hazy parrot]

probably empty one

[weak meteor]

yea maybe

but lets say i have 3 files

this 3 files represent 3 indexes, right?

[knotty locust]

this is the config

[hazy parrot]

what

3 items of array, yes

[hazy parrot]

also your dont need / around "data" here

[knotty locust]

I have this issue: when I start the plugin for the first time and it creates the config files, it creates a fake value - let's say 'b', but it should be 'a' (b is used as well and it's stated in the next line), but next time I run it with the config created already, it works normally.

I assume it's some loading issue but the all config stuff is called before creating the thing that causes the issue.

[young knoll]

Make sure you use the api of the lowest version you want to support when developing

[knotty locust]

but then you might have some issues cuz some things didn't exist yet

[young knoll]

Yeah that's the price you pay to support older versions

[knotty locust]

@young knoll can you help me with this?

[young knoll]

Can we see some code

[knotty locust]

alr

[warm pine]

Then will that API support the latest versions?

[knotty locust]

https://github.com/GreeFoxTheDev/Copper-Items/blob/main/CopperItems/src/main/java/copper/items/items/copper/Items/CopperItems.java

[young knoll]

yes

[knotty locust]

this is the main class

[young knoll]

We basically never remove stuff from the api

[knotty locust]

u deprecate some

[young knoll]

yes but we don't remove em

[young knoll]

Remove all the config.addDefault and just use saveDefaultConfig

[knotty locust]

what's the #addDefault for then

[knotty locust]

will it use the values that are there?

[young knoll]

Yes

Defaults are a magical hidden value that will be used if the key is missing

Also you don't need that manifest file :p

[knotty locust]

ok thanks

[quaint mantle]

    @EventHandler
    public void onChunkUnload(ChunkUnloadEvent e) {
        for (BlockState state : e.getChunk().getTileEntities()) {
            if (state instanceof CreatureSpawner) {
                System.out.println("spawner found");
            }
        }
    }

does anyone know why this only works for naturally generated spawners?

[knotty locust]

is the manually placed spawner actually spawning?

because if not I don't think it's considered a BlockEntity

[quaint mantle]

yes it has a mob inside it

[knotty locust]

did you check if it's a BlockEntity?

trough pichart

[knotty locust]

also why are you unloading chunks

[quaint mantle]

I just checked, it's a block entity

[knotty locust]

okay

[quaint mantle]

I need to detect if a spawner is being unloaded so I can update a pdc

[knotty locust]

but why do you unload chunks

isn't it better to load the chunks?

[quaint mantle]

I need to check for both, I just put the unload as an example because the same problem happens for both

[quaint mantle]

the event triggers when players unload chunks right?

[knotty locust]

when the server unloads the chunks yeah

[eternal oxide]

How did you place the spawner? It may not have updated teh tile entity correctly

[quaint mantle]

just with a spawner block

then I put the egg in it

it also doesn't work when I set the spawned entity with my plugin

[knotty locust]

how do you do that

[eternal oxide]

you mean the spawner doesn;t work?

[knotty locust]

something like spawner.setMobInside(blaze)

[quaint mantle]

spawner.setSpawnedType()

[knotty locust]

and does it spawn the mobs?

[quaint mantle]

it works fine, but it isn't included in the getTileEntities() list

[quaint mantle]

I assume so but I cancel the event

I don't see why it wouldn't spawn them

[eternal oxide]

Is it included after a restart?

[knotty locust]

your problem is with updating the list of active BlockEntities

[knotty locust]

good question

[eternal oxide]

A while ago Bukkit had an issue with TileEntites not being replaced/updated correctly. I thought it had been fixed/

[quaint mantle]

like when the chunks get unloaded for a restart?

[knotty locust]

no

if the list is updated

and the spawner you placed before the restart is there

[eternal oxide]

Bukkti would give an error and try to update the TileEntity on loading

[knotty locust]

in the list

[quaint mantle]

I'm not sure what you mean by that

how can I test for what you're saying

[eternal oxide]

restart the server after you have placed a block, then run your code to see if teh TileEntity is there

[quaint mantle]

oh

the tileentity is never found both before and after a restart if it hasn't been generated automatically (e.g. in a dungeon)

[eternal oxide]

what version of Spigot?

[vital sandal]

any idea to solve the problem of map's shadow?

may be with resourcepack?

[eternal oxide]

Its a client side light rendering issue. You won't prevent the lighting changes without a custom shader

[quaint mantle]

1.19.4

[knotty locust]

place glowstone behind it

or blocks of light

[knotty locust]

you can make that automatically with a plugin

[vital sandal]

It is on the the head of an armorstand but that might do

[quaint mantle]

do you think it's a problem with spigot?

or am I not doing something right

[eternal oxide]

I'm going to assume you are updating the type when you place (with no delay)

I see no reason for teh TileEntity data to not be updated unless you are somehow updating the block incorrectly

[quaint mantle]

it gets detected in different events if I get the chunk from the location

just not in the unload event

[reef fable]

what obfuscator you guys recommend to dont break spigot rules?

[eternal oxide]

perhaps that event does not have an updated chunk, but it sounds odd

[lost matrix]

None

[eternal oxide]

You said the TE is never detected before and after a restart if it was not naturally spawned

but you now say it does exist in some events?

[quaint mantle]

when I use e.getChunk() in the chunkunloadevent and then use that to get the TEs the spawner isn't included
but if I use location.getChunk() in a different event and use that to get the TEs the spawner is included

[lost matrix]

Hm? Show your ChunkLoadEvent pls

[eternal oxide]

If thats the case, it should exist after a restart

[reef fable]

so how i can secure my plugin?

[lost matrix]

Secure from what?

[quaint mantle]

@EventHandler
    public void onChunkUnload(ChunkUnloadEvent e) {
        for (BlockState state : e.getChunk().getTileEntities()) {
            if (state instanceof CreatureSpawner) {
                System.out.println("spawner found");
            }
        }
    }

[reef fable]

src leak

[lost matrix]

Is the spawner in a spawn chunk?

[reef fable]

ex i got paid plugin with license system

[lost matrix]

External licensing systems are not allowed on spigot

[quaint mantle]

is there a spawn chunk in the end? because I'm testing on the end island to stop dungeons getting detected

[reef fable]

so how example vulcan anticheat securing own code?

[lost matrix]

Load your plugin with the STARTUP property instead of POSTWORLD and see if this changes the detection

[upper hazel]

BlockPopulator - load full chunk or 16x16x16 ? and i can use PDC from chunk?

in this moment

[quaint mantle]

it doesn't seem to affect it

[eternal oxide]

You did restart not reload when testing the TE?

[quaint mantle]

yes

[eternal oxide]

Your described issue makes no sense

[lost matrix]

There is pretty much no spigot resource out there, which is worth obfuscating.
If you write code this spectacular, then you should do some research on obfuscating outside of this discord as well.

[quaint mantle]

sorry if i've been confusing, I'll try to summarise it
in the chunkunload event e.getChunk().getTileEntities() is empty except for TEs that have been generated by the server automatically
But if I use location.getChunk().getTileEntities() in the chunk where I know the manually placed spawner is, it returns my spawner and all TEs normally

also e.getChunk() in the ChunkUnloadEvent never returns the same thing as the location.getChunk() in the other event

[eternal oxide]

My confusion is where you say after a restart it is still not there

If the TE is there in other events/location then it shoudl be there in an unload after a restart

[quaint mantle]

it isn't

[eternal oxide]

very odd

I don;t have my IDE up to test

[minor junco]

That's called (bytecode) obfuscation, there's a limited number of defined obfuscators you are allowed to use with spigotmc

Talking about this topic, how would one implement a limitation to number of servers of a plugin to avoid people from spreading? I mean you could do it with an external licensing system but that seems to be forbidden. Is there a way to check if a user has bought a plugin?

[rotund ravine]

There is some things, but nothing really big allowedd

[minor junco]

I mean if I recall correctly konsolas had a licensing system in his Anti-Cheat system, but how would he have done it without violating the rules?

[river oracle]

Generally I'd say the best approach is to first make your plugin open source, that way everyone who will not buy your plugins won't get malware on their systems for it, no one deserves malware even if they aren't willing to pay for your product. Secondly only provide support to those who've legitimately bought your plugin on spigotmc you can do this in a variety of ways like making them confirm their spigotmc username and making some system to ensure only one person claims a username. Obfuscation and licensing systems are a waste of time and effort they will be cracked anyways its so easy to edit jar files you may as well just not

[quaint mantle]

My server has a problem, can anyone help me?

Unlike vanilla on my server, for example, in Guardian Farms, when an entity passes through the portal and enters the Nether, it must be driven to the next portal by its AI, but the entities mostly stay in place or go to the portal very late.

How do I fix this problem?

[river oracle]

Your bottom line won't be affected by those who wouldn't buy your product anyways.

[rotund ravine]

Ask in #help-server a d don’t crosspost

[quaint mantle]

ok ty

[rotund ravine]

There’s like two static variables that can be set other than that 🤷🏽‍♂️

[fluid river]

is there a way to display current playerprefs

like editor tab or file

[rotund ravine]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/premium-resource-placeholders-identifiers/#:~:text=Spigot placeholders are super useful,or individual class integrity protection. @minor junco

[fluid river]

oh shit i'm dumb

wrong channel

[minor junco]

"like making them confirm their spigotmc username" - what do you mean by that? Or rather how could this be implemented without violating the rules of spigotmc?

[river oracle]

Look at what JanTruck posted above

[minor junco]

Ahhh very interesting thanks a lot

That is indeed very helpful and what I was looking for, thanks!

[quaint mantle]

is it ok for the repository pattern to be loading stuff and saving stuff like files

[remote swallow]

[vital sandal]

a bit of math here
how to get the location in front of a player?

[river oracle]

Lol

I just noticed it says truck lmao

[rotund ravine]

get location and do some direction stuff

[vital sandal]

well I did it but the Y is the issue

I want it to always be on the same Y no matter how player look up or down

[minor junco]

I assume what you can do in the background is check against an external database (through a REST API) whether the NONCE has been used on multiple servers already recently and possibly to killswitch the current downloaded file for the user to require to redownload the plugin. Even though this won't help against advanced leakers...

[vital sandal]

and minecraft's direction vector is kind sus?

and ignore it :l

just need to set the pitch to 0

[minor junco]

Just take the location of the player, add the direction of the player and multiply it by the range (in this case one), no?

Ah nvm

[vital sandal]

and again

given a plane and 4 corner and a vector how to find the point that the vector is pointing on the plane

[eternal oxide]

what do you mean the way it's pointing? Thats what a vector is

[vital sandal]

like the location where that vector is pointing on the plane

[eternal oxide]

do you want its angle, like yaw?

[vital sandal]

ermm no?

like x y z

[eternal oxide]

um, you need an origin to calculate a location

[vital sandal]

yeh it should be given as well

[eternal oxide]

if you have an origin you need to zero the Y value, then normalize. Multiply by however far you want to go in that direction, then add it to your origin

so with your 4 corner example, if you want to move all, you add the resulting vector to all corners

[vital sandal]

well it should be like this :l

[vital sandal]

well the multiply is a brute-force way that I want to avoid in the begining :l

[eternal oxide]

you are trying to find the intersection point of teh vector?

[vital sandal]

yeh

[river oracle]

You also need the plugin to work if there's no internet too

[eternal oxide]

That is not so easy

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/line-plane-intersection-in-3d.309144/

[vital sandal]

the block of light doesn't seemed to be helping at all?

and it seemed to be the armorstand facing?

in fact it does also happen when you holding it on your hand

[valid burrow]

what would be the simplest way to change a friendly entitys ai to attack a player

[echo basalt]

Nms

[vital sandal]

Entity#setTarget()

[inner mulch]

small question to packets.
which packets are called when a player gets out of render distance of another player and which packet is called when a player enters the rende distance of another player?

[valid burrow]

oh no my worst nightmare

[echo basalt]

It's really easy

Pretty sure you can do it with reflections

[shadow night]

Nms is my bro, especially on older versions

[valid burrow]

do i need to create an entirely new entity or can i edit an existing ne

one*

[inner mulch]

i think you only need the entities id

[echo basalt]

You can edit an existing one

[rotund ravine]

Just make zombie, and edit the packet the player gets to sheep easy easy /s

[valid burrow]

ark

arl

[tranquil dome]

Is there an advantage to sending text components over strings? If no, does it bring drawbacks, or should it not matter which is used?

[inner mulch]

i think you use componentes for stuff like hover events or click events

in chat

[rotund ravine]

Doesn’t matter, strings need to be converted in most cases though.

[tranquil dome]

Yea I'm rewriting my utility class to support hover/click events and so on, so I thought why not just use components everytime

[valid burrow]

how would one even do that sounds complicated tbh

[molten hearth]

do you guys know if with intellij CE there's a proper way to generate the package

because by default it only creates src/Main

ultimate has the groupId feature in advanced settings but idk if CE has it somewhere

[chrome beacon]

When creating a project?

[molten hearth]

yeah

[chrome beacon]

CE also has it in advanced setting

[molten hearth]

nuh uh

AH BRUH

ITS ONLY UNDER BUILD SYSTEMS

LMAO

[chrome beacon]

Yeah

Maven or Gradle will do it

[molten hearth]

i guess intellij doesnt support it

wtf

[valid burrow]

then help me with it xd im gonna loose my mind soon

[glad prawn]

bro actually takes a photo of the computer screen with his phone 😭

its not my laptop

[dense blaze]

Anyone have a suggestion to determine if there is an active conduit near a player and the level it is even when they are out of water?

[blazing ocean]

how can I make a custom tablist without header and footer? like fake players?

[chrome beacon]

You'd send player info packets

[blazing ocean]

can you give me an example

[chrome beacon]

If you mean write it for you then no

[blazing ocean]

thats not what I mean

[chrome beacon]

What version are you making the plugin for

[blazing ocean]

i dont quite get how to construct the packets / set options

1.20.1

[chrome beacon]

Do you plan on using NMS or ProtocolLib or PacketEvents

[blazing ocean]

what are PacketEvents

is it just events for packets getting sent?

[chrome beacon]

PacketEvents is a library simillar to ProtocolLib

but you can shade it

[blazing ocean]

ill check it out

sounds good, ill add it

and how do I actually use it tho?

[chrome beacon]

To add players to the tab list you need to send the player info packet. You'd use the Wrapped version from Packet Events

and to send it you'd just get the protocol manager from the packet events api

[blazing ocean]

wait theres a method sendPacket(Any!, Any!), what are these args?

[chrome beacon]

Would be channel and packet

I've never used PacketEvents before so I'm just looking at it's code

Looks like you can get a User object from the player manager

[blazing ocean]

i got the PlayerInfo but I just need to send it

what channel do I use?

[chrome beacon]

The players channel

[blazing ocean]

its literally a Collection<Object>

[chrome beacon]

The User class will handle that part for you

[blazing ocean]

ah got itt

lemme test it

[glossy venture]

can the server not load libraries if the load type is set to startup

or smth

[blazing ocean]

took a bit and nothing is showing in tab. no errors. code: ```kt
fun createFakePlayer(username: String, displayName: Component) {
val profile = UserProfile(UUID.randomUUID(), username)
val info = PlayerInfo(profile, true, 0, GameMode.ADVENTURE, displayName, null)
val protocolManager = PacketEvents.getAPI().protocolManager

        for (user in protocolManager.users) {
            user.sendPacket(info)
        }
    }```

ive just been doing this on player login

[rotund ravine]

Try waiting a second and running the code

[blazing ocean]

okay

[glossy venture]

oh wait

does libraries not exist in 1.8

[chrome beacon]

It doesn't

[glossy venture]

bruh

[rotund ravine]

1.8 is the dark ages

You get nothing fun

But a shit ton of issues

[glossy venture]

true

[shadow night]

what about we go to beta 1.7.3

[rotund ravine]

Rayden o ly ur so machochist u go there

[shadow night]

well

it's a cool version

[rotund ravine]

Nty

[shadow night]

and I made a creative inventory on that version

so it's funnier

[blazing ocean]

still no worky

[rotund ravine]

Rip

[blazing ocean]

lmao

[chrome beacon]

Looks like you're trying to send PlayerInfo as a packet

[blazing ocean]

isnt that what i have to do?

[chrome beacon]

You want a WrapperPlayServerPlayerInfoUpdate that contains the player info

and the add action

so WrapperPlayServerPlayerInfoUpdate(Action.ADD_PLAYER, info)

[blazing ocean]

okay im gonna try

[blazing ocean]

theres still only me in the tablist

[chrome beacon]

hm

[blazing ocean]

wait

its in the chat autocomplete

[blazing ocean]

well thats a start

[chrome beacon]

Not sure why it isn't working

You could test and see if that send packet method is called

[blazing ocean]

it probably is

[echo basalt]

pretty sure that on 1.20.1+ you need to send a spawn entity packet too

[blazing ocean]

for goodness sake

[chrome beacon]

ah yeah

forgot about that

[blazing ocean]

do I use a WrapperPlayServerSpawnPlayer or a WrapperPlayServerSpawnEntity?

because both have an insane amount of arguments

[chrome beacon]

Alright so I tested. You want to send all actions at once

WrapperPlayServerPlayerInfoUpdate(EnumSet.allOf(WrapperPlayServerPlayerInfoUpdate.Action.class), info)

[knotty aspen]

Not sure about those wrappers, but the actual ClientboundPlayerInfoUpdatePacket has a shortcut method for this, createPlayerInitializing

@tender shard explain

[gaunt sonnet]

Hello everyone, does anyone have any advice please. I have the Pterodactyl panel. That's pretty cool, but my self-made plugin can't establish a connection. despite correct database access data.
all other plugins that work with databases

[upper hazel]

I think my code will work too after all I don't need to make it with version support

[rotund ravine]

No, but that code u posted won’t work

[upper hazel]

That's what most of the code is designed to do, as I understand it.

[rotund ravine]

I mean sure you can save it to relative locations

But what if a block is broken and replaced

You still got the old relative locaiton

Data

[upper hazel]

i will use listeners

[rotund ravine]

Try it then 🤷🏽‍♂️

[upper hazel]

oh wait i see now

you mean location not good id for block?

i need check material

or smth else

or use blockState as a string

hm

[rotund ravine]

Don’t store too much data

[upper hazel]

what's the best fit? Material+location?

[rotund ravine]

Just relative location in the chunk

Remember to clean it on anything that replaces the block though

[upper hazel]

the pdc itself is not deleted, is it ?

[wet breach]

not unless the chunk gets deleted

[upper hazel]

if i reload server

relative location is easy to get if you only have the x y z too

int relx = x & 0xF

can there be a block at .5 coordinate?

[grim hound]

n & 0xF

Is n & 15 because blocks in chunks are identified by 0-15?

Is that the idea?

[rotund ravine]

It’s the relative location in the chunk

[grim hound]

I know

[grim hound]

And do you know how to read it?

Also, storing just the x and z would be just fine

[grim hound]

No Server Booster rank?

[river oracle]

yes
if you have a binary number e.g.

apply to your coordinate 15
01100100 -> binary 100
00001111 -> binary 15
--------
00000100 -> binary 4

[storm crystal]

so should I go with former guide to making classes or just use methods straight up from latter link

[sterile token]

Thats called Bit masking right?

[sterile token]

I would go and use SQLite directly without any 3rd party, atleast to start. I have tried to use the librayr link you sent and i could say its sucks, has really weird querying format and many other things

I would use SQLite and HikariCP

[storm crystal]

https://www.sqlitetutorial.net/sqlite-java/ like just using this kind of tutorial?

[sterile token]

let me see what saids there

yeah that seems really good

But i will implement it via HikariCP

[young knoll]

HikariCP doesn’t really do anything for SQLite

Still usable though

[sterile token]

oh right, i was told it makes better rendiment

Because of the pooling handling, thats what i have read some months ago

[native bramble]

what is the better way to create custom snow on all server?

[river oracle]

.avi 💀 wtf kinda extension is that

should prob tranlsate that into mov or mp4

[left pine]

sorry

[slender elbow]

ffmpeg -i file.avi file.mp4 :chatting:

[wet breach]

avi isn't bad and sometimes can have smaller sizes then mp4 when it comes to quality

[lost matrix]

avi is known for limited losses but also its enormous size

[storm crystal]

Still dont get why there are so many types

Should be mp3 for audio and mp4 for video and call it a day

[slender elbow]

lossy

[lost matrix]

mp4 and mp3 are compressed to the rim. You would end up with a pixel mess after reusing those formats in editing tools for example

[slender elbow]

then you have fucking Bink video format which it provides no real benefit and only games use because "every other game uses it" and isn't used outside of games because there isn't a reason for it

[lost matrix]

mpeg is fine for videos distributed through the internet. Other than that i wouldnt really use it

Another loved one: WEBM
I really like to see those, after downloading videos

[slender elbow]

wav tho

in the words of Ben Shapiro, wet ass v-word

[young knoll]

flv

[storm crystal]

So why not

Make one good format

For video and audio

[slender elbow]

it's a tradeoff between file size and quality retained

there is no one size fits all solution

[lost matrix]

Because different formats are specialized for different cases.
Imagine embedding avi videos. Half the people would have to buffer 480p youtube videos for some time

[wet breach]

under certain settings yes it can make it larger, however if you know what it is you need avi could be the better choice

[storm crystal]

Their problem I got good specs

:]

[wet breach]

there is plenty of good formats already

you just need to determine what it is you need

some formats exist purely because it is easier to work with

[river oracle]

I see, but still distributing it over the web is wack considering it can't be embedded by discord, at least, and run easily

[wet breach]

it can be embedded

it just doesn't stream like mp4 does

[river oracle]

*by discord was an edit

[wet breach]

and this is due to the fact mp4 has frames(can't think of the word)

every so many minutes

avi doesn't support chapters/frames

an alternative to mp4 is mkv if you want a format that is more close to it

[river oracle]

I love how much you know about a ton of random shit lol

[wet breach]

however, avi, mp4, and mkv are all containers and therefore are not necessarily the codecs for the video itself

which is why it depends on your settings that dictates quality/size

[wet breach]

and they said learning all this stuff would be useless 😛

if you grew up in the early 2000's you would probably know some of these things with the formats

since you know that was one of the times where formats were a big deal and all the format wars etc especially with dvd

[river oracle]

I wasn't even alive yet then

Ironically despite my name

[wet breach]

yeah, so not much of a reason until probably recently were you might need to learn something with the formats

back then it was a big deal because sometimes you might want to play a copy DVD and so when buying a dvd player you had to make sure it played formats you were familiar with

and then internet back then wasn't super fast so you had one format for transferring online

and other formats if you stored for backups to retain that quality

[left pine]

Hello, I wanted to know how I could detect if there is an entity to avoid this small error.
Don't ask about the music I was listening to :V

[minor junco]

That ain't music that's a whole ass movie

[sterile token]

whats the issue there? I couldnt really what happens because i was entertained listening the music

[minor junco]

I don't even understand the question to begin with

[sterile token]

neither me haha

[wet breach]

what error?

not sure how an entity fits into this when you are messing with blocks

[left pine]

I just need to know if there is an entity where the block is being clicked, because do you think that when I opened the custom inv it put the block.

What I try to do is not put the block when there is an entity in that position or when it has the block but opens the inv

[sterile token]

what entity? any entity appears there if thats what you mean by entity

[left pine]

I mean that the block is not placed in the direction the player is facing.

[young knoll]

What

[sterile token]

we cant really understand what you meaning. If you are a none native speaker would better to translate it from your lang to english with deepl. So we can have a better understanding of what issue you are having or what you expecting

[wet breach]

um, beacons don't have a particular direction they need to face or one that is distinguishable

but I take it your issue is the inventory thing?

Where it isn't opening the beacon inventory and instead some other kind?

[young knoll]

I think that’s intentional?

If you don’t want blocks to be placed when your custom inventory opens, cancel the interact event

[minor junco]

Ah I get your question. You can iterate over nearby entities through the getnearby method

[left pine]

what i need is to know how to avoid that the block is placed in the position of the player because in the video i showed when i right click with the block and the direction in which the player is, the block is placed in the position of the player and the same thing happens when i have the item.

[floral thorn]

uhm i never used heads before cause that im asking how to set an head in an inventory with texture of the discord logo?

[minor junco]

For everyone else I think what he is trying to do is place a block when clicked but when there's an entity at that position there shouldn't be a block placement

[young knoll]

Ah

BoundingBox.of(block) combined with World.getNearbyEntities(BoundingBox)

[wet breach]

ok that is fine, but uh what entity are they referring to though? I don't see an entity there to begin with

[minor junco]

Himself I think

[wet breach]

unless they mean the player? but in that case it doesn't show them standing in the same spot as the block being placed

[young knoll]

Find the texture on something like minecraft-heads and then use the PlayerProfile api

[minor junco]

What @young knoll said 😆

[young knoll]

Oh I got the wrong reply

F

[minor junco]

Happens the best of us

[floral thorn]

uhm does it work for spigot 1.8.8 cause i only found one for paper

[minor junco]

I mean it's been done like this in legacy versions that's for sure

[river oracle]

Legacy you need to use mojangs api

[young knoll]

AuthLib^

Idk if AuthLib was even separate back then

Kinda wish Mojang made their NBT system open source

i guess im stupid

Microsoft loves open source look at VSCode!!!!!

Smh smh Microsoft is an ally of open source! They own github too

You silly little dummies and saying Microsoft hates foss

[minor junco]

Are you trying to install 1.8.8 Bukkit as a dependency? Is that what you are looking for

[river oracle]

Maybe nms here? No clue how to with legacy paper though

[floral thorn]

what no im only trying to set an head with discord logo texture in an inventory

but i never used heads so im helpless

& hopeless

xd

[river oracle]

Well I'm pretty sure you need nms here for sure

So start there ig

I can't help you since yk legacy

[young knoll]

Hey they made brigadier and dfu open source

[warm mica]

Microsoft purposely breaks office so that it doesn't work with wine

[river oracle]

No they don't!! It's on all accident trust me. Just switch to windows

First says inches ftw and then this

yeah 😄

[river oracle]

Imperial System >>>> beta European brain washing units

[minor junco]

Hahaha

Yeah of course

Inches, feet and miles over scientific metrics

Makes sense to me

[river oracle]

I'm named after the greatest unit of all time

Please do not speak ill of my legacy

[minor junco]

I won't I promise

[river oracle]

Good

[young knoll]

How many feet are in a mile

[river oracle]

5280

[young knoll]

Ah yes normal values

[river oracle]

10,560 in 2 and so on

how does one go about creating custom structures and thingies out of armorstands wearing/holding blocks? is there a library for this

[tulip phoenix]

Hello, good evening everyone. I would like to know, if I make a economy plugin and save all the players' money data in YAML databases instead of MYSQL or Lite, is there any problem on my server in the future?

[knotty aspen]

yaml isn't a database, so a yaml database doesn't exist

As long as you aren't planning on running multiple servers, you should be able to do this without issues.
Just don't do the I/O on the main server thread, but thats the case for sql too

[tulip phoenix]

Hm, okay. Thank you!

[exotic obsidian]

hello

if i want to save player xp i need a hashmap right?

but which event should i use?

[vast ledge]

Im having an issue when compiling a nms project, im extending CraftPlayer, the IDE shows no errors or missing methods, yet i get the following error

com.bedless.virtualplayer2.nms.v1_20_R2.CraftVirtualPlayer is not abstract and does not override abstract method playSound(org.bukkit.entity.Entity,java.lang.String,org.bukkit.SoundCategory,float,float,long) in org.bukkit.entity.Player```

I just checked multiple times tho

there is no method in entity.Player

with a long as playSound

[young knoll]

It’s new

[vast ledge]

wdym?

Is my Jar on an older version?

[young knoll]

Appears so

It was added to the api yesterday

[vast ledge]

But how is my maven getting the compile error, if my decomped jar.. doesnt have it

wat

[slender elbow]

your ide is lying

[near night]

anyone have any idea why this won’t work

manager.addPacketListener(new PacketAdapter(this, ListenerPriority.NORMAL, PacketType.Play.Server.BLOCK_BREAK_ANIMATION) {
            @Override
            public void onPacketReceiving(PacketEvent event) {
                event.getPacket().getIntegers().write(0, new Random().nextInt(2000));
                event.getPacket().getIntegers().write(1, 1);
                getLogger().info("RAN THE LISTENER");
            }
        });```

it just doesn’t get called no exceptions or anything

[quaint mantle]

would Player#setAllowFlight(true) get set to false when the person leaves?

[wet breach]

true

[quaint mantle]

it stays true?

[wet breach]

no, your statment is true is what I am saying 🙂

[quaint mantle]

oh

[wet breach]

lol

it should get set to false because I don't recall that being a setting that gets saved in the player data files

so uh warning, depending how your server is setup

it may be wise that players don't log out while high up in the air

because when they come back, they may find themselves falling 😛

and potentially die

[knotty aspen]

Its a player ability, mayFly. Player abilities are saved in player data files. Unless the craftbukkit/spigot somehow breaks this, it will stay

its possible that the server is setting the gamemode again on join, that would override it

[wet breach]

doesn't the player ability refer to elytra?

if so the setAllowFlight is not quite the same thing

[knotty aspen]

nope. Elytra flight is what mojangs call "fall flying"

[wet breach]

nvm, went and looked it up. I don't remember how exactly CB implemented it

but I don't remember flying being permanent exception if you were in creative mode

since flying didn't really need to be saved even if its supported

it could have since changed and it is guess they would just need to try it and see which it is

[knotty aspen]

I wouldn't be surprised if somewhere in the login process the set gamemode method in ServerPlayer is called, that would set mayFly back to false

[wet breach]

this would make sense

[teal pond]

is there documention for NMS?

[wet breach]

not really

just got to look at the code and see what it does 🙂

[teal pond]

ok, ty

[shadow zinc]

I want to make a packet manager util for my library, but I'm unsure where to start. How might i provide ways to manipulate and read the packets after its been injected? Perhaps an abstract perform class that accepts the packet object? what will be the best way to do this?

[torn shuttle]

I'm just stuck

this sucks

I'm having to guess my way through how the rotations are meant to work here

it's so weird because while testing individual parts it just seems like it is working correctly but when the models get more complex it just dies

[shadow zinc]

what am i doing wrong with my remappings? https://github.com/KyTDK/NeoUtils/blob/master/api/pom.xml

i installed the buildtools with the remap flag

so idk whats happening

[dry hazel]

there are no mojang mappings for 1.8

[shadow zinc]

💀

[glad prawn]

1.8 💀

[shadow zinc]

cross version compatability 💀

[arctic shuttle]

how would I make it so when a chest is open they can't move certain items into it and around their inventory?

[shadow zinc]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/creating-a-gui-inventory/

assuming thats what you're doing

then you listen for inventory item moves and canel it

[grim hound]

wait what

I'm decently sure that getAllowFlight stays the same

like 99% sure

[wet breach]

as I said it could have changed. I just don't recall flying staying enabled when you relogged. But its also been a while since I have specifically used fly

[grim hound]

I recall it staying enabled

since like 1.10

[grim hound]

not flying

the ability to fly

but flying also stays

[wet breach]

I have been around since the beginning of MC 🙂

so not everything I recall is correct since things change 😛

[grim hound]

that was like

how long again

[wet breach]

2010?

I think is when mc officially released

2011

[grim hound]

anyway more than 7 years ago

[wet breach]

off by a year

[grim hound]

so

uh

you know

[grim hound]

maybe even before that

ever since player abilities became a thing

[torn shuttle]

my animation system is so close to done I can taste it, it's so frustrating

[wet breach]

the feature for flying existed since beta 1.8

[torn shuttle]

'member magic carpet? I 'member

[shadow zinc]

is there an event listener for all events?

or a way to find when a player does literally anything

without packets

[grim hound]

no

[grim hound]

packet

handling

[grim hound]

no

[shadow zinc]

packets are such an ass fuck tho

literally the worst

[grim hound]

they're not if you learn them

[shadow zinc]

they are if you have to code them from 1.8 up to 1.20

[grim hound]

I can send you my github on how I've restricted all packets from a player

[hazy parrot]

Easy fix, don't support 1.8

[grim hound]

why?

[shadow zinc]

because my plugin works for 1.8 up to 1.20

[grim hound]

what exactly do you wanna do?

[shadow zinc]

create a metric on which players are sending the most data to the server

[rotund ravine]

With a bit of reflection you can easily listen to all events

[grim hound]

whaaat

[shadow zinc]

now you are speaking my language

please elaborate kind sir

anything but packets

[grim hound]

packets are still superior

[shadow zinc]

i am not coding packets from 1.8 to 1.20

period

not happening

[grim hound]

you really don't need to

[shadow zinc]

oh?

how so

[grim hound]

packet

libraries

like PacketEvents

[shadow zinc]

not if it requires another plugin

im not making people install dependencies

[grim hound]

you can shade it in

[shadow zinc]

great

it can be even larger

how big is it?

[grim hound]

no idea

https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/packetevents-api.80279/

2.5 mb

[shadow zinc]

yeah i dont want my plugin to be 5mb

[grim hound]

is that really a problem?

[shadow zinc]

can't upload it to spigot

i would have to use an external site

surely there is a lightweight packet listener for all versions

that isn't a plugin

[wet breach]

depends

there is some events that can be listened to that have others below it

[shadow zinc]

is there one that has all of them below it?

[wet breach]

Yes technically

[fervent gale]

when checking if a string matches a gui title, do I also need to check for the color or?

[shadow zinc]

and his name is?

[wet breach]

Event

however

[shadow zinc]

you cant just listen for event can you?

[wet breach]

nope

but

[wet breach]

you can extend it and make a custom event and stuff all the events into it

not sure if its wise to do, but I suppose you could give it a try
