help-development

[storm crystal]

I ask about shit, I get explanation, I dont get the explanation so I ask again, I get salted at for not understanding it for the first time, I am shoved even more resources that I do not get, so I ask again again, and you know how it goes

very redundant loop

[compact haven]

I do understand you Dusk, I actually do

[storm crystal]

I thought utilizing screeching "think harder" is only used by teachers

[compact haven]

Honestly it's hard to attempt to get you to understand when we're virtual and typing on keyboards with 4 people

it's difficult

[terse raven]

sorry we couldn't help you

maybe try somewhere else

[compact haven]

that's why most programmers learn it by try-it-and-see (you write code, figure out why it doesn't work, revise)

and by reading posted resources that attempt to explain a topic from top to bottom

for example, a disconnect we had here is that you asked about methods for each data type

we of course answered that you don't need them, because we thought you were asking about methods for each data column to write and read form the database

instead of from the object, which is very very standard Java. We weren't thinking about getters at all because that's just a common thing we write every day

[storm crystal]

I got 7d mute on another discord rn

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1100436822162685993.webp?size=48&name=PepeLa&quality=lossless

[compact haven]

well maybe that should be an indication

[terse raven]

nice seeing how you are proud of that

[storm crystal]

no I wasnt in mood and threw a few not nice words

thats something different

[rotund ravine]

Tried helpchat?

Maybe they’ll help you better

Or maybe paper

[terse raven]

considering its a simple sqllite issue ai chatbots should help

[rotund ravine]

He doesn’t trust them

[terse raven]

thats his issue

lol

[rotund ravine]

Cause they can’t use the 2nd law of thermodynamics

[terse raven]

certified troll

[rotund ravine]

Just saying my sql example earlier was entirely written by bing

[storm crystal]

if they can mess up with wikipedian definitions so badly

[compact haven]

Bro

[storm crystal]

I am not going to use them for such stuff

[compact haven]

here

[remote swallow]

ai is fine for trying to get explanations or code exaples to base on

[compact haven]

this is 3 years old and honestly probably absolute trash

but it's code that (iirc) worked and is what you want

https://github.com/Itzdlg/ChatMacro/blob/master/src/main/java/me/schooltests/chatmacro/storage/SQLHandler.java

[storm crystal]

I mean yeah you resort to either copypaste ai/articles or ?learnjava

I wouldnt expect more from you

[rotund ravine]

@compact haven He’s looking for more abstract implementations

[compact haven]

wdym abstract implementation

[rotund ravine]

I am on my phone and knows it can write properly, i vetted it slightly so it didn’t include more than needed nor was wrong.

Obviously i am taking the lazy approach

[rotund ravine]

Base Database interface and then implemtations for each subsequent different database

[compact haven]

wdym different database, different engines?

[rotund ravine]

Well flatfiles etc.

[compact haven]

Well what I sent has that

SQLHandler implements the StorageHandler, and JSONHandler implements StorageHandler

[storm crystal]

can i just

[rotund ravine]

My bad only saw part of it lol

[storm crystal]

make connection manager, each class for table with getter setter and not use interfaces at all?

[compact haven]

yep

[rotund ravine]

That’s what we told you to do

[compact haven]

^ our pseudo that I hand wrote on Discord and JanTuck asked Bing did not include interfaces at all

[compact haven]

alg

[primal ermine]

hi! is there an event when player brushes sus sand and gravel? I want to avoid any timers that are required with interact event

[storm crystal]

well imillusion did use interfaces so I thought they are important

[compact haven]

because that's honestly a concept you should understand before using databases

[storm crystal]

he just posted his code

and thats it

lol

[rotund ravine]

Brushes?

[compact haven]

so search up in google "What are Java Interfaces and how to use them"

[storm crystal]

what do I even implement interfaces for in databases

like interface for each table manager

[compact haven]

No, an interface for each storage medium

[storm crystal]

whats storage medium

[compact haven]

so say you want to give server admins the choice of storing it in json, sqlite, mysql, or mongo db

[primal ermine]

yes, i want to create delayed task to convert normal gravel back to suspicious again

[compact haven]

then you'd have an abstract management class that you interact with, then implementations of each ( json, sqlite, mysql, or mongo db) to write to those databases

an example here and here
https://github.com/Itzdlg/ChatMacro/tree/master/src/main/java/me/schooltests/chatmacro/storage
https://github.com/Itzdlg/CPvP-Kits/tree/master/src/main/java/us/cpvp/kits/data

[rotund ravine]

What?

[storm crystal]

so my manager class would have to be abstract and I just extend it in main class?

[compact haven]

look at what I sent, the ChatMacro link is probably easier to understand

go through the code and see how I use it

[primal ermine]

archeology stuff. Player brushes suspicious gravel, it converts to normal gravel after that. I want to set delayed task for converting that block to suspicious gravel again for other players

[rotund ravine]

Didn’t even know brushes existed

[primal ermine]

i think it's 1.20 stuff

[young knoll]

It is

Archeology

[rotund ravine]

Then probably no event other than mentioned

[young knoll]

It fires BlockDropItemEvent when you brush an item out

Don't ask how I know

[rotund ravine]

Hacker

[storm crystal]

is it possible to implement images in item/entity lore/names?

[remote swallow]

probably

[storm crystal]

um, thanks?

[rotund ravine]

Try some shitty font schenanigans i guess

[compact haven]

it's probably possible with font bullshit in resource packs

it's probably not easy. I personally never done it

[storm crystal]

why is it shitty and bullshit

[compact haven]

Because you can't just give an image to the client to render in chat, in an item lore, etc

[remote swallow]

because you need negative space and custom font stuff with color and everything

[compact haven]

you need to turn it into different unicode characters and make sure the client has a resource pack to render each unicode character

[rotund ravine]

It’s just cancerous to do and extremely tedious so it’s shitty and bullshit

[young knoll]

You can either add the full image to a font

[storm crystal]

oh yeah this guy did it

something like that

[young knoll]

Or you can build it pixel by pixel until the client crashes from the massive NBT tag

lel

[remote swallow]

that would just be a custom texture for a unicode font

[storm crystal]

is there a way to "dress up" hostile entities as players?

[compact haven]

hm>?

you mean, make zombies i.e. display as a player?

[rotund ravine]

Oh my

[storm crystal]

yeah something like that

[remote swallow]

might be able to spawn a fake player and add the ai to it

[rotund ravine]

I think that’s too advanced for you

[storm crystal]

like for instance you got citizens I think? for making player NPCs

[rotund ravine]

Oh with an api sure

You can try

[compact haven]

^ but if you want to actually make aggressive zombies look like a player

you'd need to intercept render and movement packets, etc.

[chrome beacon]

Citizens does have a nice API

[compact haven]

and make them send player equivalent packets, or the packet with a fake player ID instead

[storm crystal]

I was thinking about making zombie invisible and just smashing fake player onto it

I dont think there is other way of making any entity retextured

[rotund ravine]

There def is. But, yeah i won’t tell

[storm crystal]

you are like the most helpful person here

[rotund ravine]

Thank you

[compact haven]

lmao

[storm crystal]

I dont think I ever resolved a problem with your answer/explanation

[rotund ravine]

Tells me a lot about you.

[remote swallow]

a lot of us can give great help or no help

[storm crystal]

nah no way it was great help of any kind 😭

[remote swallow]

oh we can give bad help too

[rotund ravine]

My help is an acquired taste

[remote swallow]

normally first few messages get good help, depending on the reaction to the help or just general messages can then change the type type of help you get in the future

[storm crystal]

audacity to call me troll and then straight up saying "if we dont like you we can give you shitty help on purpose" xd

very professional attitude

[ivory sleet]

guys what is this

[rotund ravine]

The usual dusktaler moment

[ivory sleet]

no1 is entitled to be "professional", but it is appreciated to keep the attitude reasonable

[wet breach]

not sure why you find this surprising lol

[torn shuttle]

sunday, 9pm, help-development

[rotund ravine]

I decided to not tell him of a way i felt was too advanced for him and would result in a million questions in here instead of selfsearching online. This is based on the previous conversation about interfaces which took way more than a few hours to solve now

[wet breach]

and then the other stuff before that too

-.-

[torn shuttle]

hey frost are you any good with quaternion rotations?

[rotund ravine]

Yeah i mean obviously it’s been an ongoing issue

[wet breach]

wouldn't say good per say but I understand it lol

[torn shuttle]

I've got a problem

[storm crystal]

okay I didnt necessarily mean that I except professional help

[torn shuttle]

I just figured out what's happening

[remote swallow]

we dont get paid to help here if we want to help we will if you have a bad attiude people just dont want to help

[storm crystal]

but giving bad/harmful help on purpose on a help channel? xd

[rotund ravine]

He was talking to us and telling us to not dumb on you

[torn shuttle]

I have basically a series of angles which are all rotating, and they are tied in a hierarchy. I need to make it so if i rotate the base angle, the child angles also rotate

[storm crystal]

not wanting to help =/= giving bad help on purpose, and I did say several times that if you dont want to help, then do not do it

[remote swallow]

its rare to get bad help which is lucky

[torn shuttle]

thing is I got that to work but only "locally" i.e. it doesn't take the fact these angles are located in different spatial locations

[wet breach]

ok so far that isn't difficult

[torn shuttle]

I am aware that I should be using a matrix to combine these but uh

it's not going good chief

[wet breach]

they are in different places?

[storm crystal]

I still dont get how to use interface because looks like I wont be needing it at all

[torn shuttle]

yeah

[storm crystal]

if Im gonna just use sqlite

[rotund ravine]

Of course

[remote swallow]

most people dont end up giving bad help it mostly happens with mega mega trolls

[torn shuttle]

really we're talking about the basics of making a 3d model skeleton here

[remote swallow]

if you only have 1 storage type there isnt really a need for interfaces

[wet breach]

ok that is what you meant they are in different places

I was thinking like large distances

[torn shuttle]

yeah

nah they're usually relatively small

[remote swallow]

if you have multiple different storage types interfaces would be needed

[storm crystal]

Idk how to prove to anyone that im not a troll so I just ignore it

[torn shuttle]

not hat it would really matter

[storm crystal]

just sqlite and apparently one .db file with several tables and thats it

[torn shuttle]

but the problem is that if I use "local" rotations these do not rotate correctly

because the x axis for one is the z axis for another one

[remote swallow]

correct

[torn shuttle]

depending on where they are in space

[wet breach]

so I am taking with this spiral, it should move the center, top and arms in the same direction in the same way?

[storm crystal]

well makes sense why I didnt get why i'd need interface in my case

cuz I dont need it

[remote swallow]

like what @compact haven said, if you give server admins the option to use json, mysql, sqlite, etc you would need interfaces to make writing the code easier

[storm crystal]

nobody is gonna be an admin

[torn shuttle]

this is the debug model, this is for a systemic approach as you might imagine but it's a decent example of the problem

with my current approach one of the arms clips completely incorrectly because it sort of tumbles instead of raising up

[wet breach]

you are going to have to develop some kind of object that tracks the relative to the other

[torn shuttle]

that part I've done

I have all the data, I'm having a hard time conjugating it

[storm crystal]

do I need to make connection database manager class abstract?

[rotund ravine]

Do you need it abstract?

If you need to ask probably not

[remote swallow]

its a great way to learn interfaces also great for public plugins

[wet breach]

Do you expect people to build against the database connection for random DB's?

[torn shuttle]

really it's just the bit where I take the existing euler angles of the parent and the bone and turn it into a bone angle rotated by the parent by the global coordinate system that I'm struggling with

[rotund ravine]

Oh no alf

[storm crystal]

I am not going to make a single public plugin

[storm crystal]

idk what it means

[wet breach]

then you probably don't need it abstract lol

in the way you asked anyhow

[storm crystal]

i mean with abstract

I can just type extends

with non abstract

I need to make instance and shit

[torn shuttle]

any idea frost?

[compact haven]

you need to make instances anyways

abstraction is not a shortcut in your case

[wet breach]

abstract you also can't instantiate directly either

[wet breach]

it really doesn't seem too complex, if you already know the angles that need to be rotated and how much, and you already have an object that tracks the relative positioning of one from the other, then I don't see where it is hard to just make the stuff move?

you also already have a coordinate system of the thing around it

I guess the hard part is mapping internal coords to external ones?

[torn shuttle]

the real hard part is figuring out which part of this is actually bugged

it works almost entirely correctly

[wet breach]

ah yeah, debugging part probably be hard lol

[torn shuttle]

but it starts getting whacky when the parents are rotating

I was thinking it might be because I'm experincing a mismatch between rotation reference points

[wet breach]

that could be a possibility

[torn shuttle]

but the thing is it's really only happening to one axis which I'm having a hard time explaining

I don't know

I'm very tired

I think I'm done for today, this project is truly a curse

it's so close

I just want to be done with it

[storm crystal]

so I make insert and retrieve methods manually for each table in my database or can I scale it?

[wet breach]

hard to say, possible there is some mis-step in the order of things happening where in some circumstance the calculation is performed wrong, only way to debug this would be to have it output to a file every step

[torn shuttle]

managed to get confirmation just now by playing around with the model editor, it's a rotation reference point issue

[wet breach]

didn't know you had a model editor lol

[torn shuttle]

I need to figure out the math to rotate the bone's coordinates by the parent's rotation

the screenshots I sent are from the model editor I'm using, blockbench

this is it in mc

[wet breach]

nice

yeah its hard to debug this from outside only because the way everything is supposed to rotate is really arbitrary in the sense it is really up to you how you want it to rotate based on the parent lol

[torn shuttle]

it's really hard when the behavior is close and only messes up under specific scenarios

[wet breach]

like if they did a twirl, there is no like standard in how the arms should move other then it should rotate with the body

pretty neat though you are doing this in MC

not that it makes it any easier

[storm crystal]

why does IJ force me to deal with unhandled SQL exception?

[wet breach]

because sql exceptions have to be handled

sql can throw a few different exceptions depending on what you are doing. Lets say you don't have perms, sql will return an error for that, or if your query is incorrect

you wouldn't know this was the case unless sql exception was thrown

[young knoll]

Checked exceptions they are called

[storm crystal]

how do I remake it so that it makes database if its not present?

wait nvm it works im getting different exception

[keen valve]

I ask before writing everything to avoid getting banned from the Discord. Are you open-minded here? If I talk to you about Custom JAR, 1.8.8, bedwars1058, KB Hit, PvP, and Practice Server, will I get attacked or banned? I'm asking because I got banned from the Paper Discord for this.

[lost matrix]

SQLite driver creates one if the file is not present

[lost matrix]

There is no strict policy against any of those, but you will get quite a few annoyed comments from pretty much
any programming community if you ask for support on software from almost a decade ago.

[storm crystal]

check my message history and see that I havent got banned there at all

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1086061238338977852.webp?size=48&name=tf&quality=lossless

yeah they are quite open minded

[river oracle]

Won't get banned but most people aren't willing to help if A. You aren't using spigot and B. Your using legacy plugins, or servers

[wet breach]

you won't get banned

so you can be happy to know that 🙂

[rotund ravine]

Use latest 😏

[lost matrix]

Mind sharing your jdbc url?

[storm crystal]

I forgor to use ) at the end of statement

[lost matrix]

k

[storm crystal]

wow that was cold

[wet breach]

as for getting attacked, I don't know what you define as such, but there may be people who may tell you to stop using outdated software or to upgrade lol

[keen valve]

Indeed, I had only asked if anyone knew of reliable custom JARs that do not lower the server TPS and are not viruses or backdoors, and they banned me.

[knotty aspen]

you were kicked lol

[storm crystal]

what is Lombok getter and setter annotations?

[young knoll]

They automatically create getters and setters

Via compile time hackery magic

[wet breach]

to be fair, its not like discord notifies you which it was

[storm crystal]

so nothing bad if I dont use them?

[keen valve]

😄

[lost matrix]

Lombok is an annotation processor. It generates code while you compile.
Stay far away from it until you mastered the basics.

[neat mesa]

@dry hazel

[dry hazel]

good even

[storm crystal]

saying it this way makes me wanna put @Getter and @Setter

[rotund ravine]

Ask in #help-server btw instead of here

@keen valve

[lost matrix]

I wont stop you from engaging even further into self-destructing behavior.

[storm crystal]

lmao for using one annotation?

[wet breach]

problems with annotation processors like Lombok comes in the form of when it generates problems. It is problematic in debugging it since the code it adds is actually not present in the source

[keen valve]

By "attacks," I mean they told me everything, such as games like Bedwars similar to those on Hypixel are in version 1.20.2, and so on.

[rotund ravine]

Why?

[remote swallow]

i hope you can figure out to actually add lombok

[rotund ravine]

We did not.

[young knoll]

You can just store it as a string, or a specific json type in some databases

[rotund ravine]

We said they were not on any version

[knotty aspen]

please don't make stuff up, and move on. This isn't the place to bring up other servers, and you just brought 1.8 repeatedly without reason after being told its not supported

[young knoll]

But generally if you are using json in sql you may be misusing SQL

[wet breach]

they are explaining what they mean by attacks since I mentioned it

[storm crystal]

do I make retrieve and set for each database table?

[lost matrix]

Yes. Using lombok is a decision which has to be done very carefully as it will cripple you without a doubt
if you dont fully understand its strenghts and drawbacks.

[rotund ravine]

@storm crystal

[young knoll]

Imagine an alternate dimension where people got stuck on something even older than 1.8

Like what if it was 1.1

[wet breach]

lol

[eternal night]

The whole modding community in shambles

[lost matrix]

[median walrus]

I think people still rock 1.7.10 for “pvp” reasons.

[wet breach]

there is something older, just surprised more are not stuck on it from spigot 😛

[rotund ravine]

I know @wet breach There was no real attacks other than telling him to stop using old versions etc.

[keen valve]

Leaving that aside I have to write here or in another channel like #help-server to ask for information for when it concerns Jars, I wrote here to see if then I should not use PizzaSpigot as a base and create one myself

[young knoll]

Hey at least 1.8 has armor stands

And hoppers

[rotund ravine]

#help-server for server help

[knotty aspen]

no display entities 😦

best thing mojang added in years

[smoky mauve]

how to code so whenever my sword in minecraft gets a player kill it uogrades its sharpness level

[rotund ravine]

Interact entities

[wet breach]

what the heck is pizzaspigot?

[lost matrix]

If you want to create your custom jar, then this channel. Otherwise #help-server

[young knoll]

Okay but what about entity displays

[median walrus]

I remember seeing Armor Stands for the first time and getting so excited I forgot to use them until 1.17.

[young knoll]

Oh wait :(

[rotund ravine]

He doesn’t he wants to find one

[keen valve]

https://github.com/Artitus/PizzaSpigot

[smoky mauve]

Do anyone know how I can do so my custom sword gets a sharpness level each kill I get on a player?

[knotty aspen]

listen to the EntityDeathEvent, get the killer if its not null, get the weapon, upgrade its enchantment level

[wet breach]

not sure why its called pizzaspigot when they are a fork of paper

[eternal night]

Did that fork even add anything XD

[wet breach]

anyways, do note that any issues with forks we can't really help with here

[storm crystal]

can I make it in place where getters and setters are?

[knotty aspen]

that fork doesn't seem to change anything

[young knoll]

Spigot forks have wacky names

[keen valve]

Thank you very much very kind, you know if it's hard to do it I'm a Full-Stack but I haven't developed something that big yet

[young knoll]

At least it isn’t $300

[knotty aspen]

that fork is just a copy of the Paper repo 3 years ago, lol

[rotund ravine]

? Ur question does not make sense

[smoky mauve]

Is there somewhere I can find code like that? Because I can’t really code in Java tbh

[storm crystal]

it does

lol

[young knoll]

Nah it’s better because uhh

Pizza

[eternal night]

True I guess

[knotty aspen]

If you can't code in java this isn't the right channel

[eternal night]

Tho I don't see any added commits XD

[rotund ravine]

It doesnot

[storm crystal]

Do

I

[young knoll]

Does it remove any

[eternal night]

Idk

[storm crystal]

make playerstatsretrieve and playerstatsget

[eternal night]

Mobile client is ass

[storm crystal]

in the same class

as playerstats getters and setters

[lost matrix]

Naive approach:

• Listen to the EntityDeathEvent
• Check if deceased entity is Player
• Get killer from deceased
• Get his weapon
• Upgrade it

Why is this naive?
Players get rewarded a kill, even if the last damage source was environmental like lave, drowning or falldamage.
This approach wont account for indirect kills. Only for lasthits.

[knotty aspen]

yes, the one that fixed log4j for 1.8

[keen valve]

True no I know but in many servers I saw the one in F3 I mean the BedWars ones in other TacoSpigot only MozzarellaSpigot is missing 😄 PS: I am Italian

[rotund ravine]

No you do not

[knotty aspen]

so that fork doesn't even have the log4j fix, thats concerning

[storm crystal]

why

[eternal night]

Good fork

[knotty aspen]

https://github.com/Artitus/PizzaSpigot/compare/ver/1.8.8...PaperMC:Paper:ver/1.8.8 lmao

[eternal night]

Run 1.8

[wet breach]

so you collecting fork versions that relate to food?

[rotund ravine]

Cause PlayerStats should not handle how to insert and select from the database

[knotty aspen]

time to use log4j exploit to forcefully upgrade the server to latest

[young knoll]

Ah good that one really killed the tps

[rotund ravine]

That’s be funny leave em a little note too

[storm crystal]

so what do I use it for

[rotund ravine]

PlayerStats holds the data

That’s all it does

[wet breach]

shame so many servers are insecure

[rotund ravine]

And should do

[storm crystal]

mine has only getters setters and constructor

anything else I need?

[rotund ravine]

Good

[knotty aspen]

If you really have to run 1.8, at least use something like PandaSpigot that is maintained

[keen valve]

No I'm just looking for the best base from which to make my own Jar 1.8.8 for PvP or buy one already made

[wet breach]

the best one to use as a base would be spigot itself

since its official and isn't touched by others doing who knows what

[eternal night]

Are you sure it isn't lynxspigot

The new 1.8 fork

[rotund ravine]

Why do you hate urself lynx

[young knoll]

Does it cost $300

[eternal night]

Yes

With canon patches

[median walrus]

Make it $500.

[eternal night]

For factions

[rotund ravine]

Async entities?

Multithreaded?

[knotty aspen]

Does it have async daylight cycle?

[eternal night]

Obviously it pulls from folia

[young knoll]

Async itemstacks

[rotund ravine]

Oh wow

[keen valve]

To understand I only developed a plugin that I never released based initially on Paper api then I saw how much they expressly sucked and I switched to spigot ones and I had 0 problems because of those api it took me 2 years and I initially thought it was me sucking at programming then in the end it was their very limited API I couldn't do anything with it

[median walrus]

Speaking of Folia… does that support plugins yet?

[eternal night]

Yes

[young knoll]

Didn’t it always

Lol

[rotund ravine]

It just breaks a lot of em

[median walrus]

I don’t know.

[eternal night]

Yes you need to adapt stuff for folia

[lost matrix]

Sure, if you write them 🙂

[young knoll]

Yeah you gotta explicitly mark them supported as well

[wet breach]

technically still does

[young knoll]

Just asm plugins to patch their runnables

[rotund ravine]

It was written in present tense wasn’t it?

[young knoll]

Smh

[wet breach]

I read it the opposite

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[rotund ravine]

It happens, i misread stuff all the time

Patient journals. Oh ur a man? Woman walks in /s

[wet breach]

well partially correct

just wrong thinking of which man

[rotund ravine]

Had a trans man the other day. I was unsure which gender they were cause of some journal notes

Confused me

[median walrus]

Are there any resources to getting started with plugin dev?

[rotund ravine]

Google probably has a ton

[wet breach]

Lol never really thought much on this. This must suck for the medical side

[rotund ravine]

Luckily just psych clinicals. But yesh it can suck a bit

[median walrus]

Most of them won’t mind if you ask. Unless they’re the “twitter” kind of person.

[rotund ravine]

Didn’t need to ask after meeting them

[wet breach]

I think if I was working medical the scenario I would hate would be the intake, because they would clearly mark the gender they are not and then your expectations are wildly inaccurate

[rotund ravine]

Oh that’s true, but i think most will say biological gender nowadays on the forms if they are given any

[wet breach]

not in the US

well in some states it just says gender and they can't get upset because in some states they have laws that allow them to specify the other gender XD

[rotund ravine]

We get their social security number too, sadly that can be changed as well

[wet breach]

No social security number doesn't change fortunately

[rotund ravine]

Ours doesn’t change usually

[wet breach]

the only acceptable excecption is identity fraud but their new number still points to the old one

[rotund ravine]

Ours does not

Atleast we don’t get access to that

The person in question had half his journal missing cause it was on the other identity number

[wet breach]

nice

[primal ermine]

maybe anyone know what has changed with ComponentBuilder on 1.20.2? My item tooltips in chat just stopped working, without any errors or even warnings

[storm crystal]

is that okay?

[primal ermine]

cb.event(new HoverEvent(HoverEvent.Action.SHOW_ITEM, new Item(item.getType().getKey().toString(), 1, ItemTag.ofNbt(item.getItemMeta().getAsString()))));

[rotund ravine]

Sure

[storm crystal]

finally

i shouldve just stayed with configs

what does folia change in terms of development

[young knoll]

Scheduler stuff

Notably

[lost matrix]

Scheduling works differently and interactions between tick regions need to be synchronized

[young knoll]

Probably also some stuff when interacting with the world

[grand flint]

is it worth switching to it

[lost matrix]

Really depends on your use case. I would only use it with 100% hand tailored plugins from yourself
and with a good reason for needing tick regions.

[wet breach]

pretty sure many recommended this of you

[lost matrix]

Yeah...

But dusk is a bit truculent when it comes to suggestions

[wet breach]

just because something else may be better, doesn't necessarily mean it is easier

and configs in your situation would be fine anyways

[grand flint]

like a survival server with custom mobs, dungegons and such

?

[storm crystal]

how do I insert only one statistic

like I got this

[grand flint]

u need to give the player uuid and such

[primal ermine]

no one plays with chat components? I have this code for making [item] in chat, and it just refuses to work on 1.20.2, but worked flawlessly on 1.20.1:

cb.append(Util.colors("&7"), ComponentBuilder.FormatRetention.FORMATTING);
cb.event(new HoverEvent(HoverEvent.Action.SHOW_ITEM, new Item(item.getType().getKey().toString(), 1, ItemTag.ofNbt(item.getItemMeta().getAsString()))));
if (itemMeta != null && itemMeta.hasDisplayName()) {
    cb.appendLegacy("§8[§7" + itemMeta.getDisplayName() + qty + "§8]");
} else {
    cb.appendLegacy("§8[§7");
    cb.append(new TranslatableComponent(item.getTranslationKey()));
    cb.appendLegacy(qty + "§8]§f");
}```

what are you even asking

[rotund ravine]

Don’t

[storm crystal]

I literally need it

[rotund ravine]

No you do not

[storm crystal]

okay

player dies

what happens now

how do I add 1 to their death counter now

[grand flint]

u do +1

[rotund ravine]

You should have locally cached them in your handler

Then you locally fetch the cached object

And add one

On shutdown or a scheduled task you save the dirty stats and that’s that

[keen valve]

Does anyone know where to start to create your own jar based on Spigot

[rotund ravine]

?buildtools

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/buildtools/

[rotund ravine]

Just check out the version u need

[keen valve]

1.8.8?

[rotund ravine]

Yes

[storm crystal]

?

[rotund ravine]

Maps

[storm crystal]

what about it

where do I make it

[rotund ravine]

Cache ur retrived values on join

[keen valve]

Usually it's possible to run it with Java 17, usually h ow I saw on GitHub custom jars that all have .sh and .patch files in fact I was expecting that

[rotund ravine]

Where it makes sense

[rotund ravine]

You can edit that after checking it out

[lost matrix]

You need to define a scope for your data. The lifecycle.
When does your data need to live, when can it get written back to rest.
In your case, the lifecycle is bound to a players session.
This means you load the data, once a player joins, and unload it when he quits.
(Periodically saving everything every few min. is a good practice)

Now what does loading and saving mean in your case?
The default approach is the following:

• Write a manager class
• This manager class contains a Map<UUID, YourData> where it maps players UUID to your data
• Player joins: You load from DB into your manager
• Player quits: You remove from manager and save back to DB

Here is a more in-depth guide for data in general
https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/working-with-data.562421/

[young knoll]

You should always save incrementally too

In case of a crash

[lost matrix]

Lets see him chew on getting the basic loading/saving done.
Suggesting a scheduled task for saving is a finish move that needs to be prepared.

[storm crystal]

how do I access playerStats from this

[lost matrix]

What does "this" refer to?

[dry hazel]

#get

[storm crystal]

I got lost

[lost matrix]

https://www.baeldung.com/java-hashmap

[storm crystal]

I want to make that fucking cache

but how do I do it

[lost matrix]

A data map is usually managed by a manager.

[storm crystal]

I already have like 3 managers that doesnt help

[lost matrix]

Cant have enough of them 🙂

[pseudo hazel]

you need a key to access the value of a map

[storm crystal]

the thing is that

[quaint mantle]

would a repository class be good for this

[storm crystal]

PlayerStats literally has UUID in it

[pseudo hazel]

well

that doesnt help

[quaint mantle]

?

[pseudo hazel]

since then you need to conjure one out thin air

work with what you got

you only have the player quit event at that point

[quaint mantle]

What type of designer pattern do you guys recommend for GSON. Here's my problem:

I want a JsonParser (this class name is already taken by GSON) with static methods, but you can register your own parsers to it anywhere you want and parse stuff too. Should I use a singleton, make everything static, or?

[storm crystal]

barely anything helps

[lost matrix]

Why do you need a JsonParser if Gson already has one?

[rotund ravine]

It does

He told you in your scope you only really have the playerdeathevent

[quaint mantle]

it has limited parsing abilitites

[rotund ravine]

Now extract a uuid from that

[quaint mantle]

Basically im using GSON still but I want to make a wrapper for it

[pseudo hazel]

exactly, you have a map that takes a uuid to give you a playerstat instance back, so you just need to get the uuid

[lost matrix]

@EventHandler
public void onQuit(PlayerQuitEvent event) {
  UUID playerId = event.getPlayer().getUniqueId();
  PlayerStats stats = playerStatsCache.remove(playerId);
  playerStatsManager.insertPlayerStats(stats);
}

[storm crystal]

great what do I do with a player now

[pseudo hazel]

player.getuniqueid maybe?

[lost matrix]

lol...

[grand flint]

what he thinks folia is

[quaint mantle]

oh bruh

gson is immutible

alr that sucks

[grand flint]

bro thinks my 30kx30k server has 32 chunks

[rotund ravine]

188927463 Core cpu incoming

[lost matrix]

I have a utility class which handles this by creating a new Gson instance every time a new adapter is registered
(also a wrapper)

[pseudo hazel]

wait you guys dont use threadrippers?

[quaint mantle]

what did you call it?

that's like my main issue lol

i thought about AdaptedJsonParser

[storm crystal]

like that?

[lost matrix]

Does it adapt? Does it parse something?

[quaint mantle]

yes

[pseudo hazel]

yes I guess

[lost matrix]

You can replace the get by remove

[rotund ravine]

No

[quaint mantle]

but the only thing is that it will probably be a static only class

[rotund ravine]

But yes

[molten hearth]

nah listen listen

if every chunk isnt threaded

is it actually multithreaded

[pseudo hazel]

I hope you understand what your maps actually do though

[rotund ravine]

Xpdz

You do know how absurd that is right

[storm crystal]

like that?

[pseudo hazel]

do you know how many chunks are loaded with a render distance of about 10?

its quite a lot

[grand flint]

no i think

[rotund ravine]

That’s exactly what he posted before so yes

[grand flint]

he is getting somewhere w this

[young knoll]

Let him cook

[grand flint]

how about every 2 chunks 😎

[molten hearth]

nuh uh

[storm crystal]

no

like

store data

and thats it

[pseudo hazel]

yes

[storm crystal]

how about this

[pseudo hazel]

but you seem to be posting the code as if you didnt know

[grand flint]

bro responds here but not to my dm

[pseudo hazel]

thats why I asked

[rotund ravine]

Sure

U lucked out though

Imagine if it returned a clone

[molten hearth]

SORRY im slow alr

[storm crystal]

[lost matrix]

This is how i handled it:

[wet breach]

I think this has to be the biggest spoon feed in history

not what I replied to, but maybe you know 😛

[rotund ravine]

I think he just had enough

[lost matrix]

Looks good. But your playerStatsCache should be in a different class

[rotund ravine]

He didn’t even use it though

[wet breach]

its not the specific thing I am referring to, I mean as a whole

[lost matrix]

Yeah at this point we all should be added as developers in the plugin.yml to be honest

[storm crystal]

doesnt work

[rotund ravine]

I agree

[storm crystal]

so it doesnt look good

[rotund ravine]

Now you troubleshoot

[lost matrix]

You can figure this one out yourself. NPEs are pretty easy to troubleshoot.

[rotund ravine]

Did u restart ur server after updating the plugin?

[storm crystal]

yes

database is not updated at all now

[lost matrix]

Add debug messages and find out what is happening

[storm crystal]

this doesnt work for sure

[lost matrix]

Add debug messages and find out what is happening

Lets impose a feeding stop for now. This NPE can be figured out, im sure.

[storm crystal]

I know it doesnt fucking work because my stats arent even zero'ed

[lost matrix]

Cool

Then

Add debug messages and find out what is happening

[storm crystal]

NPE is solved

one uppercase missing

thats whatever totally right now

I am talking about something different

[rotund ravine]

It will only update the database on join and exit

[lost matrix]

On join -> it loads
On quit -> it saves

Did you consider the case
On join -> it loads : But nothing is in your DB bc its your first join?

[lost matrix]

He is all over the place now, sending random screenshots and ranting...

[rotund ravine]

Figure out which sql statement is wrong and fix it

[grand flint]

should i code on notepad++ or directly notepad

[storm crystal]

that is literally the exception that I got

[lost matrix]

[grand flint]

thx

lombok doesnt seem to work on this though

[jagged bobcat]

I loved learning about databases too

[storm crystal]

ok?

idk I took it from there

but I didnt even make any syntax mistakes

[rotund ravine]

Sqllite doesn’t known some of the more fancy keywords

[storm crystal]

so I remove duplicate key statement?

[rotund ravine]

You rewrite the statement

[storm crystal]

how

[grand flint]

mongodb or .yml for 400 player network?

planning to switch from mongo to due to costs sadly

[rotund ravine]

Learn sql syntax

[lost matrix]

I think SQLite has some "insert or replace" shenanigans you could use

[young knoll]

It do

[lost matrix]

Oh it also has "on conflict" now

https://sqlite.org/lang_upsert.html

[storm crystal]

finally fucking works

I can go to sleep

picking databases was the worst mistake of my life

[rotund ravine]

I agree

[storm crystal]

well now im forced to use them

cba rewriting it for n'th time

do I make Hash<UUID, SomethingStats> manager for each table or a general one?

[lost matrix]

We told you that it adds a ton of complexity and that you needed to learn a whole new programming language for it...

[lost matrix]

Each of your data classes should get its own manager to hold your data while its in memory

[storm crystal]

so each data table?

[lost matrix]

I wouldnt phrase it like that because one class can have relations to several tables.
For example if it contains a collection.

[storm crystal]

it wont dont worry about it

so in general

data table Something should have:

• Something - it holds getters and setters
• SomethingManager - it retrieves data from db into cached version and the reverse when saving
• SomethingCacheManager - used in SomethingManager to manage caching

[lost matrix]

Sure. If you create a new data class, then it needs its own table and its own manager for in-memory storage and its own
DAO for loading/saving from/to DB

[lost matrix]

Close enough

[storm crystal]

whats not ok

[rotund ravine]

.

Also cachemanager and manager does not need to be so exclusive

[lost matrix]

Just for phrasing:
Manager -> Usually in-memory only
DAO (DataAccessObject) -> loading/saving data

So for a Class "SomethingData"
I would create
SomethingManager holding a Map<Key, Something>
And a SomethingDAO transferring data between your Manager and the Database.

[storm crystal]

so I can mash them together?

kk

[lost matrix]

But doesnt need to be named DAO. This is one example i wrote recently

[rotund ravine]

I read that as ero

[lost matrix]

Thats on you

[storm crystal]

okay so

when I want to make command

/deaths

Id get those deaths from cache

not from db

y?

db is only for saving data to make it persistent

yy?

[lost matrix]

Yes 🙂

You fetched that right

[storm crystal]

well thats a lesson learned today

maybe dbs arent that bad

[lost matrix]

[wet breach]

register a handler for the level you want

[weak meteor]

Hello, i got a NPE in a Bukkit.createInventory

in that one.

Checked kit.getDisplayName(); and it works, it does have the displayname, it isnt null

KitInventory extends InventoryGUI that in the constructor calls that method

[river oracle]

CC.translate?

its probably that tbh

[weak meteor]

its a custom one from me

[young knoll]

?stacktrace

[undone axle]

We cannot help without the full stacktrace; Please paste it here: https://paste.md-5.net

[weak meteor]

okay

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

[weak meteor]

just makes return ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', txt)

abstraction goes brr

[rotund ravine]

Try printing out the values

[weak meteor]

just did that

with CC.translate

[rotund ravine]

What am i looking at?

Dicko is what value

[weak meteor]

kit.getDisplayName()

lemme give you code

KitInventory: https://paste.md-5.net/elokepixas.cs
InventoryGUI: https://paste.md-5.net/fubaracima.java
GKitInventory (calls KitInventory): https://paste.md-5.net/ogezijafil.cs

[rotund ravine]

So if you remove cc.translate and just pass kit.getDisplayName what happens

[weak meteor]

same thing

CC.translate its not the problem neither it is the kit.getDisplayName

[rotund ravine]

Wht happens if you print out kit in the method

[river oracle]

then print it with CC translate too after the fact

[weak meteor]

it returns null

hmm

[weak meteor]

its samething

just tried it

its null when i create the KitInventory instance

but before it isnt

maybe it is because the InventoryGUI constructor calls createinventory?

[rotund ravine]

Perhaps

[weak meteor]

like
InventoryGUI constructor is first than KitInventory so that way the KitInventory kit instance is null cause his constructor executes later?

[rotund ravine]

I guess

[weak meteor]

and what happens if i delete InventoryGUI#createInventory?

like its a abstract class

fuck

damn

what can i do

[river oracle]

I'm going to teach you something cool

hopefully you find it useful in the future

[weak meteor]

hmm

[river oracle]

I'll get typing now

:3

[weak meteor]

okay

[rotund ravine]

Is it generics? We love generics

[river oracle]

no

functional

[weak meteor]

i havent seen generics in school

[weak meteor]

damn

[young knoll]

Speaking of functional

What does the annotation actually do

[river oracle]

nothing its a markup

maybe a jvm optimization at best

nothing at worst

[young knoll]

Ah

[weak meteor]

i feel like im not going to understand a single fuck of functional

[young knoll]

Fair enough, I accidentally made a functional interface the other day and was confused

[river oracle]

its really easy dw

[weak meteor]

okay

i trust

[river oracle]

@weak meteor I ran out of the character limit for nitro

so

I'ma need a bit more time

[wet breach]

where does kit come from?

[weak meteor]

dont worry

[river oracle]

dw I've got it frost <3

I'm fully explaining the problem

[young knoll]

“It’s really easy”
“I exceeded the character limit”

[weak meteor]

a List<Kit> from .json

[weak meteor]

yea

[weak meteor]

Kit isnt null btw

[river oracle]

well I'm talking through each thing very carefully

[river oracle]

it is, but I'm still writing out why be patient for a bit :P

[wet breach]

something is null somewhere and you said earlier there was a null that you pointed to in your SS

therefore we need to trace it to where it originates

[weak meteor]

its okay

[weak meteor]

its null in KitInventory constructor but not before i call the constructor

[wet breach]

but Y2K says hes got it so I will wait

https://tenor.com/view/shhh-shush-quiet-gif-8316632

[river oracle]

Couple things to preffice on why you are having an issue first off I'll educate you a bit more on how java constructors work.

Essentially when inherited the parent constructor always runs first. you may know this when in obvious examples such as below

public class MyParentClass {
  public MyParentClass(int arbitraryNumber) {
    // do stuff
  }
}

Now in this example we'll make a child class

public class MyChildClass extends MyParentClass {
  public MyChildClass() {
    super(5); // we must ALWAYS provide a super method first seeing as the parent constructor moust be run first
    int thisStuff = 51;
  }
}

as you see in my admittedly weird example. The super() call calls the parents constructor first no matter what. This is true even if the parent constructor has no parameters in its class.
Now let's pretend that MyParentClass is simply has a constructor with no arguments.

public class MyChildClass extends MyParentClass {
  public MyChildClass() {
    super(); // super is inferred
    int thisStuff = 51;
  }
}

as you see the super() method can still be there. But when the parent class has no arguments its usually inferred which is why this syntax is allowed

public class MyChildClass extends MyParentClass {
  public MyChildClass() {
    int thisStuff = 51;
  }
}

This doesn't change the fact that MyParentClass runs before MyChildClass.

Now lets get on about how to solve your problem in more relevant terms.
Right now you have an abstract InventoryGUI.java class which has the method

protected abstract Inventory createInventory();

This method in more simpler terms supplies your class's constructor with an Inventory value.

Now lets look at the issues with your implementation within KitInventory.java
firstly we can note that KitInventory extends InventoryGUI

    private final Kit kit;
    public KitInventory(Kit kit) {
        this.kit = kit;
    }

Knowing about what I said earlier we can infer that super is called within the constructor above like so

    private final Kit kit;
    public KitInventory(Kit kit) {
        super();
        this.kit = kit;
    }

    @Override
    protected Inventory createInventory() {
        return Bukkit.createInventory(null, 9*5, CC.translate(kit.getDisplayName()));
    }

As you can imagine right now we have quite the predicament. createInventory is being run before kit is assigned.
There are 2 solutions here. One is admittedly much better than the other, but I'll go through in explaing both.

First I'll talk about the naive solution
we can make a simple change to InventoryGUI for this naive solution to work. Firstly we add Kit to the constructor

    public InventoryGUI(Kit kit){
        inventory = this.createInventory(kit);
    }

Next we add kit to this.createInventory

    protected abstract Inventory createInventory(Kit kit);

Now I'll explain why this solution is naive. You're essentially killing your abstraction as you likely noticed. You've now bound your general InventoryGUI class to Kit and tightly coupled them. This obviously isn't Ideal especially if you want to easily use your GUI elsewhere.

Now I'll explain the better approach to solving this problem.
If we take a look back at your original method createInventory

    protected abstract Inventory createInventory();

We see all it really does is supply an inventory. Well cool enough java actually has a method built in to solve this
we can equate createInventory to something java has built in already, its called a Supplier. Suppliers just return a value! isn't that neat. that's exactly what your createInventory method does.
so now we can make some neat tweaks. to your class

First off lets remove that pesky createInventory method from InventoryGUI

    public InventoryGUI(){
        inventory = null;
    }

Alright, but now how do we assign the inventory that we have no method to inherit?
That's where the Supplier comes in a supplier allows you to pretty much inline a method I'll give an example after I implement it

    public InventoryGUI(Supplier<Inventory> inventoryCreator){
        inventory = inventoryCreator.get();
    }

nice now how would we apply this. I will use your example that previously errored as an example and hopefully you'll beable to understand the power of Suppliers

    public KitInventory(Kit kit) {
        // error no super arguments
        this.kit = kit;
    }

Now we must use the super keyword as our parent constructor has an argument.

    public KitInventory(Kit kit) {
        super(() -> {
          return Bukkit.createInventory(null, 9*5, CC.translate(kit.getDisplayName())); // kit is now in scope
        });
        this.kit = kit;
    }

Now this is neat we have all the power of the createInventory method but none of the draw backs. All of the data we need from the constructor is now in scope. the kit variable will nolonger be null because we have access to it from the constructor parameter.

[weak meteor]

okay

lemme read everything

[hazy parrot]

// we must ALWAYS provide a super method first seeing as the parent constructor moust be run first
https://openjdk.org/jeps/447 btw, hope its gonna get merged

[weak meteor]

Okay

I understood perfectly

it actually was what i thought

[river oracle]

in short

suppliers are rad

Consumers are pretty great too :3

[weak meteor]

Okay

thats actually cool

But know i got another problem

lol

[young knoll]

Pog

[sick ermine]

Friends, I realized that I was transferring and using the classes from my previous projects in all of my minecrft plugins and that I was repeating my codes in most places, so I decided to code a core project to prevent this. When I examined some core projects, I noticed that they added an API module and coded the interfaces of most of the classes they would code in this API module, but they do not need polymorphism anywhere, but if they want to add a module for a different platform such as nukkit, it will not be that difficult to create classes that implement these interfaces. In short, my question is, is there any benefit in putting the interface of each class that I will code in the api module and the bukkit module in this api module?

[river oracle]

you know what else I hope gets merged soon
https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/craftbukkit/pull-requests/1282/overview

[brisk jetty]

How do i do this
ive been trying to figure this out without asking but i have no clue how 😅

[weak meteor]

GKitInventory also extends InventoryGUI

So the changes will affect him

[river oracle]

yeah just change GKitInventory to use a supplier as well

I mean if GKitInventory functions as normal the move to a supplier won't break anything

[young knoll]

Virtual entity vs inventory pr

[weak meteor]

yea

[young knoll]

Who’s cooler 😎

[weak meteor]

but what should i give?

[river oracle]

me I fixed 9 jira issues what about you

[weak meteor]

i got no Inventory instance to return

[river oracle]

show GKitInventory

[weak meteor]

oh nvm

[river oracle]

unless you understand

[young knoll]

I revived an old dead pr

[weak meteor]

yea just thought what i had to do

[young knoll]

Which idk I think is cool

[weak meteor]

got it

okay okay time to try

u are awesome

thats actually insane

i'll take notes of that

thank you so much for the knowledge lol

[river oracle]

I made a PR to remove sign ticking .
Its still in the queue 😭

part of me thinks Inventory PR will be merged first lo

[young knoll]

I kinda want to revive more old PRs

Might be some cool stuff in there

[warped shell]

how can i register a static event listener if at all possible?

[weak meteor]

another question

this is used only on this context?

like working with parent and child?

[river oracle]

no, Suppliers have a ton of uses

[weak meteor]

you got one that i can check?

[river oracle]

I leverage java.util.function API a ton

[wet breach]

Logger.getLogger("").addHandler(new MyHandler());

[river oracle]

well, I have one with functions not really suppliers though
https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/craftbukkit/browse/src/main/java/org/bukkit/craftbukkit/inventory/util/CraftInventoryBuilder.java?at=9ab601463301a822f2db99de72215d373b155e52

this class isn't really that readable unfortunately

[wet breach]

The stringg in GetLogger should be one that matches a logger that already exists

[weak meteor]

oh Functionals is all the .functions package?

[wet breach]

optionally you could create a new logger instead and register the levels you want it to record

[river oracle]

Function<T, V>
Consumer<T>
Supplier<T>

etc

you can also make your own FunctionalInterfaces as displayed by the link I sent

[weak meteor]

yea this isnt readable

[river oracle]

what about this https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/craftbukkit/browse/src/main/java/org/bukkit/craftbukkit/inventory/util/CraftContainerBuilder.java?at=9ab601463301a822f2db99de72215d373b155e52

[weak meteor]

but cool to know

[wet breach]

add some JavaDoc comments in there and its fine 🙂

[weak meteor]

okay thats better

[river oracle]

😈 that's my code Inventory PR Ftw

[young knoll]

Docs are for nerds

I’d really like to see the ArmorEquipEvent pr get merged but from what I’ve been told it’s not technically dead

The author is just busy

[weak meteor]

thanks y2k

really helped a lot

[wet breach]

yeah they provided more then what I was going to do

[river oracle]

I'm in a good mood right now be glad you caught me when I was happy when I'm mad I would probably have not exceeded the nitro character limit

[weak meteor]

HAHAHA okay

thanks btw

[young knoll]

Weird flex but okay

[weak meteor]

i heard about Immutable Maps like

a year ago

its smth like ImmutableMap<K, V, V, ...>, right ?

[hazy parrot]

<K, V, V, ...> 🤔

[weak meteor]

idk if its true or not

[hazy parrot]

Map is key-value structure

[weak meteor]

thats why im asking

[weak meteor]

yea

<K, V>

[hazy parrot]

so its only K and V

[weak meteor]

but i think theres a class that make it like

K, V, V

not from Java

[hazy parrot]

idk why would you have 2 same generic parameters

not sure if that would even compile

[weak meteor]

idk

Like its not Map<K, V, V>

its smth AnotherTypeOfMap<K, V, V>

[river oracle]

Your probably thinking about a table

[hazy parrot]

yeah, that wont compile

[weak meteor]

lemme google it

[river oracle]

Tables are cool it's how SQL stores data

[weak meteor]

maybe its that

yea its like sql

with the primary key and the values

[river oracle]

It's more applicable in databases than most core scenarios

[weak meteor]

yeah

[river oracle]

But it's also important to note not all tables have a primary key

[hazy parrot]

they should 😭

[weak meteor]

in core scenarios its really un-useful?

idk how to say it on english

like !useful to say it in java

[weak meteor]

they should

the really should

like DynamoDB ones

[river oracle]

I mostly use no sql so no clue what's standard tbh

[hazy parrot]

yeah if there is no natural primary key, autoincrement one should be used

[weak meteor]

and now i gotta implement cooldowns

thats easy btw

Duration goes brr

[river oracle]

Nah long >>>>

(end - start)/1000

[teal pond]

how would i make a NMS mob's custom AI persist through server restarts?

[weak meteor]

.json

and gson

goes brr

[river oracle]

Oh you're saving to files

Fun

[weak meteor]

i love .json

my life is better since i knew .json

[river oracle]

Json is great

[weak meteor]

can i talk on spanish in here?

[river oracle]

No

[weak meteor]

k

[river oracle]

English only

[weak meteor]

What would the world be like without .json?

that sounds shitty asf in english

in spanish is better

[river oracle]

No hablo español anyways

[river oracle]

Just say the word in spanish

Ans hope optic isn't lurking

[weak meteor]

que sería del mundo sin .json
