er more like why do you have this print? Debug thing rn?

[molten hearth]

yea

it was a debug thing

[worthy yarrow]

Gotcha haha

[molten hearth]

ive never used a debugging feature in the past like 15 programming languages ive used except print

[worthy yarrow]

No worries, that's why I was so confused... that's just gonna spam your console D:

true
true
true

etc etc

That'd be a fun log to sort through

[molten hearth]

yeah except its always false

false

false

😭

[worthy yarrow]

Try moving it into the if(below.compare) body

I don't think it will do anything but hey who knows... I've had issues where moving a single line fixes all of it

[molten hearth]

i mean its fine the player isnt on fire i have to code that

[tardy delta]

never used gdb?

[molten hearth]

nope

[worthy yarrow]

player.setFireForDuration doesn't achieve that?

[molten hearth]

yeah but first i have to detect if the player should be on fire and set them on fire lmao

[worthy yarrow]

Order of events should follow correctly then... odd how it only prints false

Perhaps try a helper method that'll print based on if the player if fired up or not...

[molten hearth]

oh no I mean itll print true but my method for checking if the player should be on fire sucks

[worthy yarrow]

ig just call it where the original print is?

Ohhhhh

gotcha

[molten hearth]

ill be standing 70% in the fire and its not the block below so its false lmao

[worthy yarrow]

Are you not gonna try this?

Also this one

[molten hearth]

yeah I will

but

my math isnt on point

im apparently looking at blocks in unloaded chunks

while trying to loop over the nearest blocks

😎 👍

[worthy yarrow]

How in the fuck did you do that?

[molten hearth]

🤷‍♂️

public static boolean isOnFireNearby(Pos centerPos, int range, Instance instance, BoundingBox boundingBox) {
        int centerX = (int) centerPos.x();
        int centerY = (int) centerPos.y();
        int centerZ = (int) centerPos.z();

        for (int x = centerX - range; x <= centerX + range; x++) {
            for (int z = centerY - range; z <= centerZ + range; z++) {
                Pos pointPos = new Pos(x, centerY, z);
                if(instance.getBlock(pointPos).compare(FIRE)) {
                    return true;
                } else {
                    System.out.println(instance.getBlock(pointPos));
                }
            }
        }

        return false;
    }```

how to math tutorial

nah its good copilot figured it out ong 💯

[rough ibex]

copilot...

[umbral ridge]

i have a question about yaml config.

can I set an object with a space in it? eg.

homes:
home1:
world: "world"
x: 0
y: 0

where home1 would be eg.: "home 1" with a space in between e and 1

if I use set, and the path contains a space, will it automatically resolve to:
homes:
"home 1":
....

?

[worthy yarrow]

I would say it's a better practice to just use _ as spacing indicator

[river oracle]

Iirc yes its possible hut I'd not do that tbh

[zinc moat]

Anyone a clue why this is erroring?

[worthy yarrow]

Pretty sure you have to add the enchantment after the fact of creating the itemstack

[zinc moat]

👍

[worthy yarrow]

ie:

[zinc moat]

Yeah i already found it

Thanks tho

[worthy yarrow]

The error happens because enchantment mending is a void method that holds all the properties of mending when creating a new itemStack only needs to take a material

[zinc moat]

ohh

[worthy yarrow]

Something cool you can do is create an itemstack method that will ultimately serve as a custom item of sorts... within this method you can customize a lot about this item... just gotta have some fun with it

[zinc moat]

interesting

quick question
what is <pluginname>-shaded and orginal-<pluginname>

[hazy parrot]

Shaded - with shaded dependencies

Original - without

[zinc moat]

shaded dependencies?

[hazy parrot]

Yes?

[zinc moat]

no clue what that is

[hazy parrot]

Dependencies you shaded into your jar

[zinc moat]

dependencies that are in maven?

It's already fixed.

[worthy yarrow]

He's new

[zinc moat]

👍

yup

and uhh my brain hurts

my plugin dont work and its not erroring

[worthy yarrow]

Add debug statements

ie system.out.println

[zinc moat]

i did

return false;

[worthy yarrow]

Send code

[zinc moat]

Code block or what you prefer?

[worthy yarrow]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[worthy yarrow]

send the link after you finish the paste

[zinc moat]

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

[worthy yarrow]

I bet you didn't put the command in your plugin.yml

[zinc moat]

i bet you i did

[worthy yarrow]

if (player.getInventory().containsAtLeast(new ItemStack(Material.IRON_ORE), 32)) {
if (player.getInventory().containsAtLeast(new ItemStack(Material.GOLD_ORE), 32)) {
Both of these are incorrect

[zinc moat]

What is it suppost to be?

[wet breach]

https://tenor.com/view/place-your-bets-now-people-saturday-night-live-sportsmax-bet-on-it-gamble-on-that-gif-19652904

[worthy yarrow]

I don't think you use containsAtLeast, nor do you check for a "new" itemstack. The new modifier implies that you are creating a new itemstack which is not what you are trying to do. In the case of you wanting to check if the player has a certain amount of items, you can iterate through the player inventory using a for loop that will let you go through the whole inventory and find items that way

in the case of the inventory having iron ingots then you can apply mending to them that way

[kindred sentinel]

Is there a way to improve tps by turning off light of redstone?

[zinc moat]

But if it loops thru all items wont it add mending to the entire stack im just trying to add a new item that has mending

[worthy yarrow]

So you just want the iron in the inventory to get mending?

[river oracle]

That wouldn't really improve TPS at all you'd be flipping a bit that does legit nothing in the grand scheme of things. The client does the actual rendering the server sees no benefit from you disabling this client side feature

[lost matrix]

Your code looks fine. It will check if a player has at least 32 IRON_ORE items in his inventory, and then add a completely new mending iron ingot.

[zinc moat]

Yes i know but it does not do that

[lost matrix]

Debug it

[worthy yarrow]

That's the issue, is that it looks fine but it doesnt work lol

he's new

[zinc moat]

yh

[worthy yarrow]

Also, @zinc moat you have no debug statements in the paste you sent

[zinc moat]

oh

[lost matrix]

Step one:

[zinc moat]

alr im adding try catch things

[worthy yarrow]

You don't need that

[lost matrix]

Do what i wrote and 100% dont add any try catch "things"

[worthy yarrow]

Just a simple println will be fine

[zinc moat]

why not the try catch if i may ask?

this is the try catch i ment

[worthy yarrow]

There's no reason to debug with try catch especially when it's something this simple

[kindred sentinel]

It explains a lot

[worthy yarrow]

Also it's not specifically for debugging

[zinc moat]

oh

[lost matrix]

try catch is used to catch critical exceptions at intricate positions in your code.
It is used to handle fails gracefully. In your case it wouldnt even print anything to console because you are
not producing an exception.

[worthy yarrow]

It can be used in much more complicated processes, ie: where data should go or be handled based on certain scenarios

[river oracle]

If you want to improve Redstone tps you'd have to rewrite the server and see if you can make any performance short cuts

[zinc moat]

so smthing like sout would just do it?

[kindred sentinel]

But when you create something like cycle with 2 observers, I think it really hurts tps to turn on and turn off light of redstone every second

[worthy yarrow]

That's perfect

[zinc moat]

😄

makes me happy

[river oracle]

Well yeah but it's not the light doing that lol it's the clock

[worthy yarrow]

That's all you need for debug statements tbf

[river oracle]

You're running through that circuit like a couple times a second

[kindred sentinel]

Hmm, you're right it's impossible to change this thing without rewriting game code

[river oracle]

That's bound to be somewhat slow

[zinc moat]

alrigth

so i got iron

but it does not print

[river oracle]

You're looking at a symptom the (light) of something that actually happens (active / deactive blockdata )

[worthy yarrow]

eh?

[worthy yarrow]

If you got iron, then it should print to console

[zinc moat]

So i got iron more then 32 and it does not print

[zinc moat]

but it does not

[kindred sentinel]

Hmm, you're right, thanks for explaining

[worthy yarrow]

Ok so the function of the command is to do what? Is it supposed to only take a single iron from a stack and apply mending?

[zinc moat]

its not fully dont yet it justs gives you an iron with mending

[worthy yarrow]

That's my point, what is it supposed to do when it's done

[zinc moat]

uhh its like an auto compressor plugin so it checks if the player has 32 of a item and "compresses" it

[worthy yarrow]

Compresses it into a block?

[zinc moat]

no into an item

[worthy yarrow]

That item being (material + mending)

[zinc moat]

yeah

[void vapor]

hello i have a problem, i can't access to the InitialHandler class in my bungeecord plugin

[worthy yarrow]

So then basically I believe you still have to iterate through the player inventory to get the materials in order to check if A: it's at least a stack of 32, and B: it's an item you want to be compressible. After that, you just do the same logic for giving the player the compressed item, and remove the original stack of items

[void vapor]

InitialHandler con = (InitialHandler) event.getConnection();

[zinc moat]

yeah that was the plan

how do i loop thru an inventory tho

[worthy yarrow]

let me find an example

[zinc moat]

i think it would be much easier to loop thru an inventory and just remove all the iron and change the iron to iron with mending

[worthy yarrow]

That's the point

[zinc moat]

oh

😭

[static gull]

hi i wanted, to set custom item in mythicmobs, to after all, set it as a drops in one of my custom mobs in modelendinge, but when i'm using /mm items import name
i can see an error in console, (it has custommodeldata, and custom name) what can i do in this situation to set it right?

[worthy yarrow]

The implantation you currently have only adds a single iron with mending, as well as keeps the original items haha

[zinc moat]

yeah i know its a test if i'd work i'd make it remove iron + give it

[void vapor]

Please can someone help me!!
i have a problem, i can't access to the InitialHandler class in my bungeecord plugin

import net.md_5.bungee.connection.InitialHandler;

but i have the bungeecord-api in my classpath

[zinc moat]

i think this is not the place for bungeecoord

[worthy yarrow]

it is

[zinc moat]

oh

mb Le S

[worthy yarrow]

People know bungee here, just gotta be patient

[static gull]

do anyone know how to help me in this?

[zinc moat]

ima expirement real quick

nope

[worthy yarrow]

for (ItemStack item : player.getInventory().getContents())

This should iterate through every item stack in the players inventory

[rare ridge]

Hello, is it possible to somehow disable the chorus flower growth logic?

[zinc moat]

look at the documentations i guess

[zinc moat]

so like

if getinventory
that code here?

[zinc moat]

That's what defines the for loop as an iteration through player.getInventory.GetContents

So you're checking ItemStacks (in) : player.getInventory.getContents

[icy beacon]

If you don't know a programming language you're gonna have a very very very hard time coding a project in that language, let alone with a library

[zinc moat]

?NuclearKatIsHelpingMeAndIappricateHimVeryMuch

[icy beacon]

Give a man a fish,

[shadow night]

When I tried coding a mod without knowing java I quit very quickly

[zinc moat]

?YouWhereABeginnerOnceTooSoIthinkYouShouldStfu

[shadow night]

Then I learnt java and now it's fine

[icy beacon]

So you're not gonna take a hint ezed

Well kudos to your determination

[shadow night]

Beginers don't have the ability to think rationally

[zinc moat]

Ok?

[shadow night]

This is a very good example of that

[shadow night]

The deeper you are into a subject, the more rational you think regarding to it

[worthy yarrow]

Sometimes it's best for a beginner to receive a bit of support at the beginning in order to introduce them to new concepts and processes to encourage further development of their knowledge

[zinc moat]

If you get anoyed so easily just ask the owner or sum for like a seprate channel for beginners and intermediate coders

[shadow night]

Then you'll end up teaching them java

[icy beacon]

It's fine if the person at least briefly understands what they are doing. This person does not have the concept of for each loops

[worthy yarrow]

Why do you think I said "a bit"

I'm not going to spoonfeed him an introduction to java

[shadow night]

OH MY GOD

[zinc moat]

I just didnt know what : meant my bad next time ill just figure it out myself instead of asking a little bit of help.

[shadow night]

I learnt for loops before java lol

[icy beacon]

You won't need to figure it out if you just learn a language

You don't read a book in a foreign language and go around asking what every word in the book means

[icy beacon]

And then you won't understand some nuances of it (equiv. to syntax sugar in prog.)

[worthy yarrow]

But when you offer a little bit of patience and support it allows them to learn more from what you're trying to help with. Not only that, it can be easily saved for future use and what not. Another point is just that physiologically a person is more inclined to learn a subject when other people around them are interested and willing to at least point in the correct direction... You don't have to feed the man or even teach him how to fish, just fish with him

[icy beacon]

Just learn the language dude. At least the basics

You'll find yourself coming here much less frequently

[shadow night]

A good thing to learn is: googling

If you can google, you don't need a support channel

[icy beacon]

There is also a better one

?learnjava!

[icy beacon]

Not updated :cope:

[worthy yarrow]

But you proceed to treat is as, you're not allowed to ask questions when you don't know anything about the subject which is just wrong... They should always be allowed to ask questions... Yes they should probably use their own search engine first but the point is just that you shouldn't shoot someone's question down by saying "learn java"

[icy beacon]

Eh it's a place for a lot of stuff

[shadow night]

But not learning langs lol

[icy beacon]

I remember a discussion ongoing in this channel whether existing was a violation of OCP

[worthy yarrow]

I know, like I said, use your search engine first but don't just be an ass and tell any beginner to go learn java... that's very condescending and utterly demotivating

Just put it in a nicer way man

"Hey there are places that are better for learning so and so"

That's all it's gotta be man

[shadow night]

Whenever I got told to learn java I watched a yt video about java till I understood the subject, if you get demotivated and go away, then thank god you did we don't need people like that coding lmao

[worthy yarrow]

Ofc. I'm not saying that someone would literally quit, but it's not fun to have someone just shit on your question with "You don't know java go learn idiot"

[icy beacon]

Coly how I'm going to bed

Welcome to Gboard clipboard, any text you copy will be saved here.

[shadow night]

It's not like that, it's more like "Hey, you should learn java before doing this"

[echo basalt]

"hey we're going to get technical and we need someone that understands what we're saying"

[worthy yarrow]

Another point to take into consideration, is just the simple fact of someone might be learning java through minecraft framework...

[icy beacon]

Learning through doing is only valid if you at least know the syntax

[shadow night]

I definitely did not learn java through bukkit lmao

[icy beacon]

Same..

[echo basalt]

I definitely did

[shadow night]

But I did have experience in other langs before so it's ok ig

[icy beacon]

Same again

[echo basalt]

Yeah same

[worthy yarrow]

Yes that is true, I took the codecademy java course before trying plugins.

[icy beacon]

Yup you did the right thing

[zinc moat]

hi guys yall still arguing or something?

[icy beacon]

Discussing

If that's allowed

[worthy yarrow]

Again, the person should obviously try to learn the language but sometimes instead of being a dick, you could always just be nice and offer the support that you're willing to. ie: offer the links and again, just be nice about it

I see so many people getting into it after asking simple questions and it's kinda sad

[shadow night]

Nobody is being a dick

[worthy yarrow]

Perhaps not now, but I see it allllll the time

[shadow night]

Because that's how it has to be

[icy beacon]

There were some spontaneous aggressive statements here and there in this convo but overall more or less civil

[worthy yarrow]

Why does it have to be that way? It seems like most of you just don't have the patience to offer a little support which I get, it's probably below your skill level by like 5 years but we all did start somewhere and the more support that can be offered to those who are starting, the easier it's going to be on everyone considering most people here don't like those beginner questions

[shadow night]

Because we don't want to have people coming for java questions every 5 minutes, eventually re-asking some questions and being an absolute idiot with tons of xy problems and similar stuff

[torn shuttle]

I don't even know what the context of the discussion here is but there is a big difference between being new to programming and being new to the spigot api

people here are generally fine with helping you even with the most basic spigot api questions imaginable

[icy beacon]

Well it's fine if there's 1, maybe 2 questions that are related to the very very basics of the language. Any more than that and you are now obligated to visit ?learnjava to avert crises

[torn shuttle]

they are not fine with teaching people how to program line by line

[icy beacon]

Valid

[shadow night]

EXACTLY

[torn shuttle]

we don't expect people here to know how an itemstack works but we do expect you to know how to use just about any class in the api by looking at its documentation, with maybe just a couple of exceptions

[worthy yarrow]

I understand that but it doesn't always have to be "You don't know the language go learn idiot" Which is 90% of the cases when it comes to beginners trying to ask something... At least from what I have seen

[torn shuttle]

yeah and 90% of the time those people get told to go learn java, as well it should be

[icy beacon]

If I understand you correctly you argue that we should be less negative to people who attempt to learn java via these questions

You are right, there's often no need for negativity, but I didn't see much negativity in the convo anyway. What is the argument about?

[worthy yarrow]

It's 100% the way it should be. My point is just that it doesn't have to be said in such a condescending / rude way every single time

[rough ibex]

what is happening

[icy beacon]

Nothing much

[torn shuttle]

and I'm sure that if you were paying professionals to help you you would get better customer service, but you are asking people who just volunteer their time on free and open source software and thus are at the mercy of whatever response style those people have the patience to give you, if any

and these are the same people that see this same question show up many, many times a day

for years

[worthy yarrow]

So then it goes back to the etiquette of "if you don't have something nice to say, don't say it at all"

[torn shuttle]

that's not how it works

[worthy yarrow]

Why not?

[icy beacon]

NuclearKat, at least in this particular instance the individual denied the VERY neutral offer to learn Java. There was no negativity, just a ?learnjava thrown in the conversation. No rudeness was sparked until a bit later on

[torn shuttle]

why would it be

[worthy yarrow]

You as a person can make it how it works

[icy beacon]

So I rest my point here I guess

[torn shuttle]

clearly you observe that it isn't

[worthy yarrow]

Same as everyone else

[torn shuttle]

thus it isn't

[icy beacon]

On the fact that the argument kinda stemmed from nothing

[worthy yarrow]

The change can't come from me yapping about it obviously, but it's just so sad to see it happen all the time

[torn shuttle]

well, too bad

it is the way it is

[worthy yarrow]

Guess it is too bad everyone is a dickhead

That's just life innit

[torn shuttle]

I think we're lucky in the first place that there is a place you can ask questions for this api and that is generally well-versed enough and populated enough that you can usually get an immediate answer to most basic questions 24/7 free of charge

nothing about the current setup is guaranteed

[ivory sleet]

Bru wtf

I mean this channel is for help, if you’re not willing to help then don’t be here

[worthy yarrow]

I'm not going to refute any of your points because they are all solid. Again, it's just so sad that beginners can't even ask something without getting yapped at to learn java

100% they should learn the language before messing with an api

But again, it doesn't have to be brought about so rudely

[ivory sleet]

@zinc moat Im sorry for any rude behavior here, it shouldn’t be the case, even in the case of being a beginner

[zinc moat]

Thanks

its fine

im just a little sad that people dont help and are rude in a help channel

but NuclearKat is really helpfull!

[torn shuttle]

you are more than welcome to go open a new discord server called christian-spigot where you can enforce your own etiquette and staff it with your own people and have the utopia you seek, and not be at the mercy of the state of mind of whoever is online at a given time in spigot's help channels, and let me tell you you can take cmarco with you, he would love that

[ivory sleet]

lets calm down

[worthy yarrow]

That's disappointing

[torn shuttle]

I'd be very happy if you take cmarco tbh

[zinc moat]

what?

[ivory sleet]

Magma, drop it

[worthy yarrow]

@zinc moat fine if I share the first thing you messaged me with con?

[zinc moat]

sure

[worthy yarrow]

This is the reason I started yapping @ivory sleet it happens all too often

[ivory sleet]

ugh well, id appreciate if you talked to us discord helpers instead of making a fuss about it here

drop it

[worthy yarrow]

Good idea

I was too involved tbf

[ivory sleet]

yea, well in any case, lets just start from fresh

[torn shuttle]

hey guys I just came over from bukkit, what is spigot about and is it compatible with 1.4?

[worthy yarrow]

Again, disappointing

[zinc moat]

1.4? or 1.14?

[worthy yarrow]

Its a joke

[zinc moat]

oh

i didnt even relise minecraft had a 1.4

[torn shuttle]

buddy

when I started playing minecraft it was in infdev

[worthy yarrow]

well usually projects start from 1.0

[zinc moat]

minecraft old as hell 💀

[worthy yarrow]

Sometimes before 1.0 too

[torn shuttle]

I remember a time when there were in-game player npcs

and no survival mode on servers

[zinc moat]

oh

[torn shuttle]

infdev was before that

Ithink

that doesn't sound right, was prealpha before infdev?

it's been a while

right

oh right yeah

that would've been 2009

I remember playing minecraft around when the economy crashed

[sullen wharf]

So you remember playing it today?

[zinc moat]

yeah i know most of those versions but i thouth after all of those it was 1.8.x

my stock porfolio indicates that the economy did not, in fact, crash today

[pulsar parcel]

Hi, I am trying to make a parent class Configs, that would have a register method, where it puts it's child classes to a List<? extends Configs> and my thoughts were to make Main.configs.add(this); int the parent register method and then just run register() in constructor of each child class. But the problem is, that in the parent class, I can't put this in to the method, because it doesn't extend the class. Is there any way how to do it? My code looks something like this (I'm just testing it out)
https://pastebin.com/L84C4aD2

[chrome beacon]

Don't make it static

[ivory sleet]

use just a List<Configs>

[chrome beacon]

and this ^^

[ivory sleet]

:)

[pulsar parcel]

oh it's really that simple? Thanks

[tardy delta]

dont think config should be plural

[pulsar parcel]

the static doesn't really bother me at the moment, it will be private after all, I was just testing it

[ivory sleet]

in general Tada Collection<? extends T> means you only read of said collection

and ? super T would mean you only write to said collection

[pulsar parcel]

oh I see

[ivory sleet]

yeah, there is much more to it, but in ur case, that "idea" is enough I think?

[pulsar parcel]

yea

it is exacly what I need

thanks for the explanation

:), well if u ever need a deeper explanation, just ask away

[twin venture]

Hi ,anyone good with nms , 1.20.4?
trying to spawn body of the player

but the Remove does not work

[rough ibex]

it needs a argument

[kind hatch]

?mappings

[undone axle]

Compare different mappings with this website: https://mappings.cephx.dev

[kind hatch]

Looks like it takes a List<UUID>

[charred blaze]

can i store data in inventoryholders?

someone said its faster than hashmap

[twin venture]

whhat

[chrome beacon]

Depends on what you're doing and where the race condition is

[rough ibex]

you need to pass something

into the packet constructor

its underlined in red.

[dawn flower]

uh what do i do in a situation where just a small part of the code is too big to show in chat to explain my issue

[chrome beacon]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[chrome beacon]

^^

[ivory sleet]

what type of ops?

[twin venture]

Hi so iam using nms 1.20.4 , and iam using spigot 1.20.4

how i can fix this?

[twin venture]

ideas?

[ivory sleet]

is ur cache just on heap mem? Or do u use sth like redis?

[chrome beacon]

You forgot to remap

[twin venture]

i did

[ivory sleet]

then that’s fine insolublemouse?

[ivory sleet]

what exactly in detail ru doing to achieve this race condition

Probably

[dawn flower]

https://paste.md-5.net/jomuhicale.java
and
https://paste.md-5.net/yuzazavowe.cs

so basically my issue is, it's adding the activators to the activators hashmap (i can tell cuz it's working) but in this part of the code

for (String ac : activators.keySet()) {
  try {
    Activator activator = (Activator) Class.forName("missing.plugins.executablepets.activators." + ac).getConstructors()[0].newInstance();
    inventory.setItem(slot, activator.toItem());
    slot++;
    if (slot >= inventory.getSize()) {
      break;
    }
  } catch (ClassNotFoundException | InvocationTargetException | InstantiationException | IllegalAccessException ignored) {}
}```
it's not updating and showing the added activator thingi even tho it exists in the map

even if i close the menu and reopen it cuz maybe it didnt update it still isnt showing up

[chrome beacon]

does anyone know a per player worldborder api that can also shrink over a set period like the normal worldborder?

[dawn flower]

?

[dawn flower]

also https://github.com/yannicklamprecht/WorldBorderAPI

[tender shard]

you haven't remapped

[tender shard]

you need the specialsource plugin. check the link ^

[twin venture]

i added it , and reloaded maven and builded the new versions

but its still send the error

[tender shard]

how do you compile?

[twin venture]

package?

clean package?

[tender shard]

that's correct. and which .jar are you using?

[twin venture]

This one

[tender shard]

?paste your whole pom

[undone axle]

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

[twin venture]

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

[tender shard]

this breaks it

https://blog.jeff-media.com/how-to-make-maven-automatically-put-your-plugins-jar-into-your-test-servers-plugins-folder/ read this on how to change the file name

do NOT change it in the shade plugin

quick fix:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>3.3.0</version>
  <configuration>
    <finalName>MyJarName</finalName>
  </configuration>
</plugin>

then remove the finalName from your shade plugin

then mvn clean package and it should work

[twin venture]

ok

Its fixed thanks

[tender shard]

np

[twin venture]

do yk how i can add a fake entity ?Dead Body?

in 1.20.4

[dawn flower]

???

[valid burrow]

ups wrong channel

[ivory sleet]

i think this can be solved with just appending one operation after the other?

like if u have a completablefuture

myea

for instance

CompletableFuture.runAsync(() -> {
//get
},executor).thenAccept(() -> {
//save
}).thenAccept(() -> {
//get
});

ofc u prob by ALL MEANS want to lock while doing the database calls

[echo basalt]

thenCompose

:)

[ivory sleet]

well when u do the database stuff

because u wouldnt want two threads writing at the same time

I mean ofc, thats in general fine if u rely on some database

but then, if u wna use a flat file impl u'd wna lock ofc

[tardy delta]

start a db transaction

[echo basalt]

refuse to support anything other than S3

[ivory sleet]

yeah, the code I wrote above is wrong as well isnt it, it takes a consumer

myea looks fine

[echo basalt]

hm

[ivory sleet]

anyway you might wanna lock even if u're using a databse backend, like lets say u wna write if and only if no threads are writing - like doing stuff optimistically and not enforcingly

[echo basalt]

I need to reorganize this package

[ivory sleet]

well thats when u care about availability (for mc, prob not needed)

for the database stuff?

I mean I would recommend having like, at least a fixed thread pool of n threads where n is the amount of available processors

[echo basalt]

cached thread pool

I remember hearing about an issue where high player spikes managed to exhaust the fork common pool

and like horrible latency n stuff

[ivory sleet]

yes

if u do io stuff w common pool u're trolling

[river oracle]

Uhmmm. I think the crafting table is broken

I think this may be a spigot bug lmao

[ivory sleet]

yeah altho its common u might overload the pool if u're doing io w it, so then u'd need to restrict it by other means like with some AQS

[echo basalt]

or just use a diff pool

[ivory sleet]

not really

but I would advice so

I mean when u involve state, u do wna ensure memory visibility across threads

(which u get automatically, by using certain locks that guarantee memory visibility)

[ivory sleet]

yeah I mean ideally u'd wna have some input measurements of the hardware available or resources so u can define the constraints of the thread pool more concretely

[river oracle]

what the FUCK what?????

lmfao

[ivory sleet]

lol

[hushed spindle]

thoughts on item nbt being removed

[river oracle]

finally :PPPP

[quiet ice]

PDC is gone? Good thing I use lore for data storage

[echo basalt]

ah yes my favorite

[river oracle]

LMFAO forgot to add recipe ingredient

[hushed spindle]

guh

[echo basalt]

using chatcolor as hex

[river oracle]

PDC won't be going anywhere I'm assuming lynx has plans to fix it

[rough ibex]

its not

NBT is not removed

its just in a different format

[river oracle]

if its even broken that is

[ivory sleet]

well threads sometimes save outdated values of variables locally, and compiler and jvm can optimize things by reordering which order variables are written to and read from

these "optimizations" can make a program behave incorrectly in a concurrent environment where state is accessed from multiple threads

[quiet ice]

I was just joking. Well the lore part is still true though but that has to do with cross-plugin compat BS

[river oracle]

you can do cross plugin compat with PDC 🥲 provide an API with tags or just make a namespacedkey using NamespacedKey.fromString

if you work with older versions put the PDC in the same place as in the newer versions

[quiet ice]

Yeah but the older plugins still store everything in lores, so I'd need to automatically refractor all lore data to PDC; meaning I'll eternally have code I cannot really touch; not making the situation any better

But the plugin is too dead anyways for anyone to care

[ivory sleet]

idk

i read a book

and ive been git blamed for writing bad multithreaded code

[quiet ice]

Conclure is one of the more concurrency-aware persons around here

[slender elbow]

terrible curse

[ivory sleet]

yup

ignorance is bliss as they say

[quiet ice]

I can only git blame myself so generally I don't use it heh

[river oracle]

finaly finished my first ever spigot plugin 🥲 the worst is ahead though

I gotta make the plugin page

[ivory sleet]

niceee tho :>

a big W for finishing something

[river oracle]

its small atm but I figure I'd start small or I'd never finish it

its in kotlin too :P

[rough ibex]

I finished a plugin but I can't test it because protocollib doesn't work on 1.20.4

[river oracle]

still?

this is why I just use NMS lmfao

[rough ibex]

last time I tried

I hate using NMS

[river oracle]

Remapped is amazing

[rough ibex]

I avoid it anyway I can

[river oracle]

plus I have a script to autoupdate versions

[rough ibex]

I'd like to write it once

and leave it be

[river oracle]

that's how NMS is for the most part unless you're touching stuff that gets changed a lot

I haven't had to update my code since 1.19 and it was just a field to method change

most of my stuff works back to 1.17, but I only support 1.20.4 :P

just run my upgrade script and make sure nothing exploded and boom I'm done

[rough ibex]

I just don't see a reason to not use protocollib

why switch over

[river oracle]

its harder to use lol

[rough ibex]

Not in my experience

[river oracle]

have you ever use remapped?

[ivory sleet]

I used protocollib, but like, its nice sure, tho some of the names of the packets were outdated

so it was hard to navigate

[rough ibex]

I did a little a while ago

[ivory sleet]

which is why im pro nms and netty at this point

[river oracle]

if you just need to send packets too there are pretty nice NMS methods for that already

makes life easy as hell

[ivory sleet]

yea

[rough ibex]

no

[tender shard]

packet constructors are much more straight-forward then checking whether the first int or the second int is entity id etc etc

[rough ibex]

git blame just shows you who added what code

[river oracle]

    @Override
    public void broadcastTotemEffect(@NotNull final LivingEntity entity) {
        final var livingEntity = ((CraftLivingEntity) entity).getHandle();
        livingEntity.level().broadcastEntityEvent(livingEntity, (byte) 35);
    }```

[ivory sleet]

oh, no more like people saw who pushed the code that broke production (on github)

and it was me

so I got blamed

but its also a git command

a swedish mc server, back in the days

almost, tho I stepped out before officially becoming one

it was another network, but i applied to xfun is what I meant

then idr why I didnt take the job, well thats that

[vital ridge]

@EventHandler
    public void onZombieSpawn(CreatureSpawnEvent e) {

        Entity entity = e.getEntity();

        if (!(entity instanceof Zombie)) return;

        e.setCancelled(true);

        Zombie zombie = (Zombie) e.getEntity();

        System.out.println(zombie.getLocation());

     

        Zombie newZombie = (Zombie) zombie.getWorld().spawnEntity(zombie.getLocation(), EntityType.ZOMBIE);
        newZombie.setCustomNameVisible(true);
        newZombie.setCustomName(ChatColor.RED + "Custom Zombie");

         

    }

why does this produce stack overflow? It happens on the line where I spawn the zombie into the world

How doe, isnt the code only running once?

When the creaturespawnevent runs

Oh lmao im actually dumb

yeah

Ofc

I'll try messing around with spawn reasons

Yeah Im testing the spawnreason with an if statement now and no errors, thank you

[echo basalt]

bruh the TAB plugin doesn't support translatable components this whole update is in shambles

[wet breach]

Lol

[echo basalt]

was planning on releasing an update tomorrow where I localized every message in the server

[chrome beacon]

quick fork TAB

[eternal night]

I mean I don't update spigot

but I presume md won't just overlook it

its just a patch to the DFU

go look at net/minecraft/util/datafix/fixes/ItemStackComponentizationFix.java

[echo basalt]

ffs

[molten hearth]

yo chat whats the mathematical difference between the width and depth of a boundingbox

[echo basalt]

one's x one's z

[molten hearth]

yeah thats what i thought

what the fuck man

fuck this shit

🦒

[eternal night]

you basically just patch the PDC conversion there from root level nbt into the custom_data dc

[slender elbow]

it's not as bad as i was anticipating tbh

[echo basalt]

this is gonna be a fun night

[river oracle]

@eternal night md probably won't be having a fun time updating this

[eternal night]

he wont xD

[eternal night]

yea well

the items are the chill part

when they get to entities shit will go fucking nuts

the amount of custom data bukkit/spigot/paper store on those

or block entities

delicious

[river oracle]

yeah this is why I'm making CabernetMC

exactly for this reason smh smh

[sullen canyon]

how do they really update them all at once

[river oracle]

I doubt they update them all at once. There is likely some degree of latency

if I had to guess some form of redis cache subscription

[glass mauve]

do I check if two things are in the same world just by using equals method?

[ivory sleet]

In general yeah

or well, what two things?

[glass mauve]

the player and a Location object

[ivory sleet]

if u wna check whether a player and a location is in the same world you’d first call
getWorld() on the player, and then compare that to getWorld() from the location

[dawn flower]

is there anything like a map that can have 2 of the same key?

[glass mauve]

yeah exactly

[ivory sleet]

What do you mean by that?

[rough ibex]

they stagger them

[ivory sleet]

a key that holds two values?

[dawn flower]

like saving "test" with "blah" and "test" with "idk" in the same hashmap

[rough ibex]

generally move players around so that they're in the same game type

[dawn flower]

"test" being the key

[ivory sleet]

you’d need some sort of Map<K,Collection<V>>

[rough ibex]

a Multimap

[ivory sleet]

^

[dawn flower]

k thanks

[ivory sleet]

Guava has HashMultimap, perfect for u as it handles creation and destruction of the underlying collections

[glass mauve]

I am confused though right now, the location object is used to spawn an item frame using packets
but I just saw that I never tell that packet in which world it should be 🤔

[rough ibex]

Locations can have a World

[glass mauve]

yeah but my packet doesnt have that information

For the metadata:

no place to set the world

so I am kinda confused

how is it going to know where to spawn?

or will it always spawn in the world where the player is located when receiving the packet?

[wet breach]

Because this is sent to the client

The server should check which clients it is sending to as its relative to the client for world

[glass mauve]

what happens if someone switches world? will it unload the entity on the client?

[wet breach]

More likely the client will ignore it since it performed a world change

[glass mauve]

wdym?

[wet breach]

Not all packets are processed by server and client depending on their age and what actions have happened

[ivory sleet]

I dont like synchronized

for one its not compatible w virtual threads

for another

I’d advice using ReentrantLock, or maybe a semaphore?

its good

yeah w reentrant lock u get fairness, try lock methods, lock interruptibly and uninterruptibly

very gucci stuff

[wet breach]

Also other packets get sent on world change too. So lets say the entity does spawn after world change. The chunk packets would cause the client to remove the entity because according to the chunks sent to the client it doesnt exist as well as some other update packets

[ivory sleet]

well u get that almost w semaphore also, but semaphores are better in their own ways

[eternal night]

their name certainly sounds cooler

[ivory sleet]

lol, I meant that u can lock on one thread and unlock on another

but yea true

[glass mauve]

I am talking about the state that the player already received the packets in the normal world and everything working fine and then afterwards the player going to switch world, its going to just "delete" the entity right?

[ivory sleet]

typically u do sth like:

lock.lock();
try {
//code
} finally { lock.unlock(); }

and then even if code inside that scope throws an exception, -

Yes

Finally runs

[wet breach]

It would remove it from the client. But the entity would still exist in the world you spawned it assuming you spawned a real entity and not a fake one

[ivory sleet]

wdym

[glass mauve]

I am talking about a fake one though

[ivory sleet]

I mean

try {

} catch (){

} finally {

}

[wet breach]

Then its just gone

[glass mauve]

ok yeah thats what I thought

thats good

[ivory sleet]

if its checked you should have it propagate upwards w the method signature

[glass mauve]

thanks

[ivory sleet]

yea

finally is that strong

and it needs to be

in that case it’d execute after (iirc)

[wet breach]

Finally executed at the end of the block regardless what happened

They are handy for cleaning up connections

And some other things

[ivory sleet]

Yea well they’re handy for cleaning up no matter what happens

[wet breach]

[ivory sleet]

very much

:3

[wet breach]

You can still catch exceptions and have a finally. Should always catch exceptions and do something when possible about it.

[ivory sleet]

i mean I do something like:

void method() throws StorageException {
lock.lock();
try {
actualMethod();
} catch (GoofyException e) {
throw new StorageException(e);
} finally {
lock.unlock();
}
}

storage exception is checked

but it can be unchecked also

[wet breach]

And conclube shows a nice example of such

[ivory sleet]

If u prefer

only thing is to not catch Exception

or well unless u have good reason to do so

return inside the try block

[wet breach]

Ah do the unlock in finally because if finally is reached nothing should need the lock as we are out of the code block now

[ivory sleet]

Anyway insoluble

I don’t think you need to lock around the cache

like you probably wanna decouple the cache, from the actual database stuff

All the database stuff should do is to either take a data object and write to it from reading the database, or take a data object and read from it to then write to the database

the cache stuff should be responsible of loading up a user data object based of an identifier (like uuid), additionally it might put it in some map since u wna be able to access it later

[analog mantle]

How can I check if a CommandSender is a player?

[rough ibex]

instanceof I believe

[analog mantle]

like

cmdSender instanceof Player ?

ok thanks

[teal venture]

Anyone have any good spigot GitHub links to projects that are very good to look at for beginners but not super basic

[analog mantle]

Why does my cursor disappear when I type in intellij? How can I fix it?

[rough ibex]

like the pointer or the I

[dawn flower]

trade system

look at any basic one

[analog mantle]

the entire cursor goes invisible until I move it again

[spare mason]

how can i damage the player like if an entity damaged him with the inmunity frames and all of that

[ivory sleet]

Did you press insert? Sometimes it also glitches when u alt tab. Or did you perhaps by mistake toggle VIM?

[echo basalt]

Update: author told me to write my own shit

[analog mantle]

It is very likely I may have accidentally pressed a keybind of sort, how can I disable all of those?

[ivory sleet]

even after u pr’d?

[worthy yarrow]

Sounds about right D:

[echo basalt]

I opened an issue not a pr

He uses strings and not comps literally everywhere

[analog mantle]

I never alt tab, I always just change windows manually.

[ivory sleet]

Lol I just read the issue

“Feature requests are closed”

[dawn flower]

if (e.isShiftClick()) {
  if (e.getSlot() > 0 && e.getSlot() < activators.get(activatorString).size()) {
    Collections.swap(activators.get(activatorString), e.getSlot(), e.getSlot() - 1);
    setMenuItems();
  }
}   ```

this isn't moving it up, there's no errors in the console, am i missing something here?

[analog mantle]

I don't even have VIM installed.

[ivory sleet]

Did u maybe press like insert?

[analog mantle]

nope

[ivory sleet]

Hmm thats weird then

[dawn flower]

i tried putting a debug print inside and it's not printing it

[analog mantle]

It makes my cursor fat when I press insert

Im gonna restart my pc and see if it fixes

[rough ibex]

like a square?

[analog mantle]

idk

[analog mantle]

nope didn't fix

[kind hatch]

That means it’s not reaching/passing your conditions.

[dawn flower]

weird

oh wait is a map not ordered correctly cuz its entries is a set

oh bruh

it is

linkedhashmap exists thank god

[slender elbow]

I didn't know joshua bloch was god

[wet breach]

https://github.com/frostalf/ServerTutorial

[dawn flower]

how do i move a key up in a linkedhashmap and move it down as well?

for example
"A": 1
"B": 2
"C": 3

i want to move C up so it'll be
"A": 1
"C": 3
"B": 2

[wet breach]

Use a sortedmap

[dawn flower]

then?

[wet breach]

Use keyset() or values() which returns ascending order

[dawn flower]

i dont want a specific sorting, i want to move a whole value directory

also the value isnt an integer

[wet breach]

You really shouldnt need to move something in a map itself. As this is can be an expensive operation

So you just do such things on returned values

Sortedmap facilitates this. Otherwise use a linkedhashmap if insertion order is important i guess.

[dawn flower]

insertion order is important i just need a way to move the value up if i want to

[wet breach]

You will need to iterate over the map and manually dump into another

[molten hearth]

ye at this point ive been working on this simple collision detection for like 5 hours bruh ```java
/* For reference */

public BoundingBox(double width, double height, double depth) {
this(width, height, depth, /offset/ new Vec(-width / 2.0, 0.0, -depth / 2.0));
}

public boolean intersectEntity(@NotNull Point src, @NotNull Entity entity) {
return this.intersectBox(src.sub(entity.getPosition()), entity.getBoundingBox());
}

public boolean intersectBox(@NotNull Point positionRelative, @NotNull BoundingBox boundingBox) {
return this.minX() + positionRelative.x() <= boundingBox.maxX() - 5.0E-7 && this.maxX() + positionRelative.x() >= boundingBox.minX() + 5.0E-7 && this.minY() + positionRelative.y() <= boundingBox.maxY() - 5.0E-7 && this.maxY() + positionRelative.y() >= boundingBox.minY() + 5.0E-7 && this.minZ() + positionRelative.z() <= boundingBox.maxZ() - 5.0E-7 && this.maxZ() + positionRelative.z() >= boundingBox.minZ() + 5.0E-7;
}

/* my actual code */
for(Pos firePos : getNearbyFires(player.getPosition(), 1, player.getInstance(), player.getBoundingBox())) {
BoundingBox fireBoundingBox = new BoundingBox(1, 1, 1);
var inside = fireBoundingBox.intersectEntity(firePos, player);
System.out.println("inside" + inside);
}does anyone know why `inside` is always fucking completely just garbage 😭 🙏 2/4 block faces are true and 2/4 are false for example
This returns true
Pos[x=2488.0, y=72.0, z=1682.0, yaw=0.0, pitch=0.0] (Fire Pos)
Pos[x=2487.2477273989675, y=72.0, z=1682.527185211678, yaw=-96.659515, pitch=56.08326] (Player Pos)and
This returns false
Pos[x=2488.0, y=72.0, z=1682.0, yaw=0.0, pitch=0.0] (Fire Pos)
Pos[x=2489.516695224516, y=72.0, z=1682.569168189597, yaw=86.72293, pitch=82.06115] (Player Pos)```

with the player's boundingbox being [-0.3 : 0.3] (minx, maxx) [0.0 : 1.8] (miny, maxy) [-0.3 : 0.3] (minz, maxz)

the math aint mathing anymore

[wet breach]

Wouldnt that be accurate?

Half true and half false making a whole

[molten hearth]

idk man im trying to check if im standing in a fire and if I stand on 2 out of the 4 blocks near the fire block (except the 4 other blocks on the diagonal i ignore those atm) it returns true for 2/4

this is apparently true for example (I dont think it is buddy but whatever the math says)

[wet breach]

I mean you are on half the blocks?

[molten hearth]

on the other sides i can literally be in the block and itll return false

[young knoll]

Why aren’t you using the built in bounding box stuff

[analog mantle]

I actually cant do anything this is so annoying. Please help

[molten hearth]

limitation skill diff

[worthy yarrow]

It doesn’t come back after moving the mouse again?

[analog mantle]

it does

[worthy yarrow]

?

[wet breach]

So why we minusing 5?

I think maybe your offset is off?

[molten hearth]

(im actually using the minestom api but im quite sure this is a mathematical skill issue)

[wet breach]

It is

[worthy yarrow]

The cursor turns into that tiny line where you’re typing… so that’s just base os functionality

[wet breach]

There is some numbers or assumed numbers that are not correct

[analog mantle]

no way it's default, when you type it goes away?

[wet breach]

You should output each stage of the equation

[molten hearth]

thats actually part of the API im not sure if I should be changing that 💀 🙏

im not too sure what the role of the 5 is

[worthy yarrow]

Eh I’m pretty sure that’s default for most os

[analog mantle]

it does it for you too

[molten hearth]

i assumed it was some mathematical rule for boundingbox calculation lmfao

[wet breach]

Maybe the api is flawed. Never a such thing as a perfect api lmao

[wet breach]

It depends where you want the boundary of the box to be at. But also certain things in mc are measured from different spots

For example 4 blocks share a corner coord. But if you want the center of a block its measured from bottom right of the coord if i recall

[molten hearth]

with one of the True cases for example ```

ill update it in a sec with the other steps

ah this equation is so complicated god dayumn

[wet breach]

Lol

Not even sure why you need this complex math for something so trivial

Just surround the fire with a bounding box. Check if player is in the bounding box

The fire itself is only so large. And if you want them to still get like burned for being close, adjust the bounding box out accordingly

[young knoll]

On spigoot it’s literally just BoundingBox.of(block).overlaps(player.getBoundingBox())

:p

[wet breach]

Yeah

[molten hearth]

thats literally what im trying to do buddy 😭

im just trying to check if the player overlaps with the fire's bounding box

someone told me fire doesnt have a bounding box but thats another story

[wet breach]

Well it shouldnt be that hard, or need complex math even if you wanted to do it manually

[wet breach]

I am pretty sure it does as it used to be considered a block. But the box for the fire is like larger then the fire itself

But regardless you can just make your own for it

[molten hearth]

well to be fair i tried to make a boundingbox bigger than width 1 height 1 and depth 1 but then i dont even know what the fuck happened

i ended up having issues like 3/4 sides would always be true and 1 side would just never be true

[wet breach]

Ah the problem with using 1's

[molten hearth]

am i not supposed to use 1 for a 1 by 1 block 😭

[wet breach]

No just in math when you do some calculation 1s and 0s cause issues is all

[molten hearth]

also it seems my issue is with specifically java boolean p6 = fireBoundingBox.maxZ() + positionRelative.z() >= boundingBox.minZ() + epsilon;

well maybe more than that

                        double epsilon = 5.0E-7;
                        boolean p1 = fireBoundingBox.minX() + positionRelative.x() <= boundingBox.maxX() - epsilon;
                        boolean p2 = fireBoundingBox.maxX() + positionRelative.x() >= boundingBox.minX() + epsilon;
                        boolean p3 = fireBoundingBox.minY() + positionRelative.y() <= boundingBox.maxY() - epsilon;
                        boolean p4 = fireBoundingBox.maxY() + positionRelative.y() >= boundingBox.minY() + epsilon;
                        boolean p5 = fireBoundingBox.minZ() + positionRelative.z() <= boundingBox.maxZ() - epsilon;
                        boolean p6 = fireBoundingBox.maxZ() + positionRelative.z() >= boundingBox.minZ() + epsilon;

                        System.out.println("p1" + p1);
                        System.out.println("p2" + p2);
                        System.out.println("p3" + p3);
                        System.out.println("p4" + p4);
                        System.out.println("p5" + p5);
                        System.out.println("p6" + p6);```

this is the code im trying atm and it seems p6 is returning false when it should be true or true in cases it should be false 🤔

how to use z axis tutorial 🙏

the full example would be java Pos[x=2505.0, y=72.0, z=1681.0, yaw=0.0, pitch=0.0] - fire pos Pos[x=2505.2872937165994, y=72.0, z=1682.5240348120838, yaw=-178.15439, pitch=61.100857] - player pos inside => false subResultPos[x=-0.28729371659937897, y=0.0, z=-1.5240348120837552, yaw=0.0, pitch=0.0] p1true p2true p3true p4true p5true p6false

[wet breach]

Weird you are using such large floats lol. Why we using an epsilon in here? Is it for if they are diagonal?

I still dont know why using 5.0000000 is being used either

[molten hearth]

it was part of the OG formula and i didnt question it

i could try nuking it

lemme cook

honestly if its because of the diagonal im just banning players who diagonally step into fire atp

[wet breach]

Lmao

[molten hearth]

to be fair i replaced it with 0 and i dont even see changes bruh

[wet breach]

Weird

I will have to look at this when i get home in 7 hours lol

[molten hearth]

https://tenor.com/view/violin-tiny-cute-gif-15898508

[wet breach]

Too difficult with just a phone

[molten hearth]

alright thank you 😭 its already been 7 hours i can spare some more dont worry lmao

[wet breach]

Lol

[ivory sleet]

sounds like maybe u want to use a TreeMap instead

where there is a notion fo natural order

[dawn flower]

already figured it out with linkedhashmap

[wet breach]

Ah that would work too. Forget about them trees

[ivory sleet]

:,) yea

altho u do sacrifice time complexity somewhat

[ivory sleet]

nice

[molten hearth]

also for reference here's a more detailed example of a false positive java Pos[x=2489.0, y=72.0, z=1673.0, yaw=0.0, pitch=0.0] Pos[x=2488.315463502017, y=72.0, z=1673.488163720621, yaw=-84.227356, pitch=63.528667] RESULT -> true subtraction -> ResultPos[x=0.6845364979831174, y=0.0, z=-0.48816372062105984, yaw=0.0, pitch=0.0] FireBoundingBox [minX=-0.5, minY=0.0, minZ=-0.5, maxX=0.5, maxY=1.0, maxZ=0.5] PlayerBoundingBox [minX=-0.3, minY=0.0, minZ=-0.3, maxX=0.3, maxY=1.8, maxZ=0.3] PositionRelative [x=0.6845364979831174, y=0.0, z=-0.48816372062105984] p1true p2true p3true p4true p5true p6true

[analog mantle]

Is there a way I can get a list of all the children of a ConfigurationSection ?

the way I have my config set up is that you're supposed to add an arbitrary amount of entries to a ConfigurationSection

[delicate lynx]

ConfigurationSection#getKeys(false)

[analog mantle]

what kind of entry is this?

afaik, it's a key then an Integer[]

but there's no option to get an int array

[delicate lynx]

that's just a list

specifically getIntegerList(path)

[analog mantle]

yea i'll just map it to an int array

I also need to parse an Identifier to a StatusEffect

It took me so long to learn collections, but man I am glad.

I could do all of that in 1 map call but I think it's cleaner to do it in 2

[ivory sleet]

thats a lot of streams

[kind hatch]

What does this do? Get 2 effects from the config list?
I don't work with streams all that much.

[analog mantle]

Collections are very, very fast, so fast that it can process a list of like 4 thousand objects in milliseconds

[ivory sleet]

i mean yeah

but the memory overhead and just operational overhead is still noticeable on streams if u go far enough, dont think it affects u here tho but point given

[analog mantle]

parses all entries as their name, and their 2 integer list settings and turns it into a list of status effects

[ivory sleet]

also looks like once we get stream gatherers

u could make it shorter

[analog mantle]

so it turns an arbitrary amount of those potion effects into a list of them

[analog mantle]

I'm always looking for ways to improve, if I send you the code would you be down to make it better?

[ivory sleet]

better in what way?

speed? or memory consumption? or less lines?

:,)

[analog mantle]

Well you're saying that it can be improved

[ivory sleet]

I think personally the code is a bit complicated

like in those streams a lot of things happen

[analog mantle]

less lines = bad
I prefer a much more readable line then 1 long long line that you have to scroll to see the end

[ivory sleet]

yes

i more meant the logic

[analog mantle]

matter of fact, you can make a whole class in 1 line if you wanted

[ivory sleet]

well I think it highly depends on whether few or more lines is bad or good

[analog mantle]

feel free to make it better in any ways you see possible, and then explain to me what you did to make it better.

final List<PotionEffect> effects = config.getConfigurationSection("Punishment Effects")
          .getKeys(false)
          .stream()
        .map(f -> Map.entry(NamespacedKey.minecraft(f), config.getConfigurationSection("Punishment Effects")
                .getIntegerList(f)
                .stream().limit(2L)
                .toArray(Integer[]::new)))
        .map(f -> new PotionEffect(Registry.EFFECT.get(f.getKey()), f.getValue()[1], f.getValue()[0]))
        .toList();

[ivory sleet]

why isn't ur format like

effect:
  amplifier: x
  duration: y

if I may ask

[analog mantle]

too much time

This is literally my very first time making a plugin

I have like zero knowledge on the API

[ivory sleet]

well you did ask me what I thought could be improved

[ivory sleet]

yea fairs

but the format has little to do with the api

anyway I'd probably have limit(2) on its own line

and make it consistently indented

[analog mantle]

sure

[analog mantle]

IDE automatically does that inner indentation

[ivory sleet]

goofy ide

[analog mantle]

do people usually put their permission node configurable in the config file or not?

[ivory sleet]

na

plugin.yml

i reckon

[torn shuttle]

people with some resource pack experience, this code works for setting my offsets for armor stands

    private void setDisplay(Map<String, Object> textureReferencesClone) {
        textureReferencesClone.put("display", Map.of("head", Map.of("translation", List.of(
                        -modelSpaceOriginOffset.getX(),
                        -modelSpaceOriginOffset.getY(),
                        -modelSpaceOriginOffset.getZ()),
                "scale", List.of(MODEL_SCALE, MODEL_SCALE, MODEL_SCALE))));
    }

but it doesn't affect display entities, anyone have any idea of what the key might be for display entities?

[analog mantle]

what would it look like?

here's my plugin.yml rn

name: dangerlevel
version: '${version}'
main: me.wclient.dangerlevel.DangerLevel
api-version: '1.20'

(I use a really funny method using reflections to bypass manually adding all commands to plugin.yml)

[ivory sleet]

yeah I just register straight to brigadier myself

but its not favored

never

i asked it once

it gave my fail-proof failing code

[analog mantle]

this is my inheritor class, and I just access the commandMap in the server and register them

It doesn't get much easier to make a command then what I have

[analog mantle]

where do I add in the thing for permission nodes?

[torn shuttle]

is there just no equivalent for display entities? I can't tell if I can't find the documentation or if this is just something that doesn't exist

well I can't find it anywhere so I'll just assume it doesn't exist I guess

hm

feels like this might cause issues

[river oracle]

wdym by this

[torn shuttle]

resource packs have a display property that allows you to align models so they fit an entity

[river oracle]

mmm interesting

[torn shuttle]

and it's keyed

[river oracle]

didn't know that

[torn shuttle]

so like if you use the head key it will allow you to re-center where on a player a helmet will be

(or an armorstand or I guess also a mob of player-ish size)

I use that for FMM and I finally narrowed down my issue to the fact that display entities are either not using that key or not using that system at all

which might be a big problem for rotations if that is the case

I'll have to test it

[wintry lynx]

Does metadata stored on a player persist after death?

or does it clear when they respawn

[worthy yarrow]

I don’t have the answer to that specific question but id assume there’s some data that persists after death

[torn shuttle]

pdc data persists

[river oracle]

just use PDC

metadata API is leaky anyways

?pdc

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-guide-to-1-14-persistentdataholder-api.371200/

[wintry lynx]

Im asking because I want to know if it does not to use it :P

I know it's cleared when a server closes but i wanted to know if it does on player death

[slender elbow]

the problem with metadata isn't that it isn't stored but rather it isn't cleared

[river oracle]

yeah honestly PDC is safer imho

you should probably avoid MetaData

[wintry lynx]

Yea yea, i know. i didnt plan to :I

[analog mantle]

They call me the collections guy.
this turns in to

[ivory sleet]

i see one collection

most of it is stream api :,) (counting w the code from before also)

[analog mantle]

this

[ivory sleet]

wclient seems dangerous

[analog mantle]

what do you think of my expertise in streams

[ivory sleet]

well, I mean u certainly like streams

maybe a bit too much

[analog mantle]

its just so goddamn convenient

and also extremely fast

[ivory sleet]

well its not any faster than the counter alternative

for loops

while loops

but yea its convenient

[spare crypt]

Not always the most memory efficient though

[ivory sleet]

^

it has a certain mem foot print and overhead in terms of ops

[spare crypt]

Streams are most useful when you're using concurrency

[analog mantle]

personally, I can't see it being a insane memory problem, especially since my plugin is very simple

[spare crypt]

Yeah. Most scenarios, it's not a big deal

[ivory sleet]

well

yea but like

[analog mantle]

I'm honestly having more fun then anything making this plugin

[ivory sleet]

at startup

its fine to loop through a set of boostrappable components w a stream or so

[ivory sleet]

hugw W

[slender elbow]

how could you tell

[analog mantle]

The one thing I'm kind of dreading is making the placeholder for the danger of the player

[ivory sleet]

its also kinda sad that u cant specify a custom executor for the parallel streams, as far as I know of

[analog mantle]

I'm not sure how to even start with the placeholders

[ivory sleet]

or well, "custom fork join pool"

[slender elbow]

you "can"

if the current thread is a FJT it will use the pool of the current thread

common pool otherwise

[ivory sleet]

ah yes

thats true

[slender elbow]

but yeah not really a custom executor

but a FJP

after all, the point is a divide and conquer approach

[ivory sleet]

yup

[analog mantle]

Can someone please send me a tutorial for using placeholder strings in a plugin

[ivory sleet]

if u wna be barebone

String#replace

[analog mantle]

Well no, because I would like to allow support to put the player's danger on TAB, Scoreboard, and in chat

[ivory sleet]

ah u wna write ur own placeholder api extension?

[analog mantle]

uhh no

lol

is that something I have to do?

[ivory sleet]

i mean yea

prob

[analog mantle]

Just to use a singular placeholder?

[slender elbow]

you want to provide a placeholder, no?

for other plugins to use

[analog mantle]

yea i want people to be able to use ie. %danger-level% as a placeholder, and it then becomes whatever the player's danger actually is

[ivory sleet]

you'd pretty much need to write a papi (placeholder api) extension for it

[analog mantle]

Yeah I mean I guess i'm willing to do that

[ivory sleet]

u basically need to override a couple of methods

[analog mantle]

Well hold up

I have never made a plugin before, so I kinda need to follow a tutorial or something

[ivory sleet]

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/PlaceholderExpansion#with-a-plugin-internal-class

here

[quaint mantle]

Do new snapshot's ItemStack Components deprecate PersistentDataContainer API?

[worthy yarrow]

I found that trying to find examples of functionality (similar to what you need ofc) helps loads when trying to figure something out

[ivory sleet]

nope

[quaint mantle]

Oof

[ivory sleet]

it fits in the custom tag

[analog mantle]

So this gives me no info how to set it up, it jumps straight into making it, but no set up

[quaint mantle]

I got really scared reading the news 🦦

[ivory sleet]

yea no u're good

its mostly them just having their shit loaded and validated eagerly

[quaint mantle]

By the way, I would like to contribute/expose some methods

I was previously told how to

[ivory sleet]

oh

[analog mantle]

What do I need to add to my gradle file

[ivory sleet]

its at the right nav bar

[analog mantle]

like i have no idea

[quaint mantle]

I just can no longer find the source of how to do so

[ivory sleet]

like create a PR?

[quaint mantle]

Yeah yeah

[ivory sleet]

idk

@river oracle

help this guy :)

[worthy yarrow]

Also take note of examples you like or think you'll come back to, you never know when you might just forget the simplest of things

[ivory sleet]

?pr

istg there was a command for it

[quaint mantle]

?contribute

Yes!

[analog mantle]

where can i put in my placeholder expansion identifier so people know what it is, but cannot change it?

[ivory sleet]

There is the papi ecloud

[analog mantle]

nah imma just put it in config.yml

[kind hatch]

?

Wants to know where to put an unmodifiable string prefix.
Decides to put it in the config where everyone can change it.
🤔

[analog mantle]

does string.substring(0, string.length - 1) return "est Strin" given string is "Test String" ?

[drowsy helm]

try it and see

[analog mantle]

man i can't be bothered

[drowsy helm]

🤷

[analog mantle]

I had to do that crap like 2 million times in my CS class and I still don't know fully

[drowsy helm]

java online compiler

[analog mantle]

nah it's 1

[river oracle]

No

It just moves where it's stored internally iirc

Dont worry about it I'm sure md will have fun fixing everything xD

[ivory sleet]

Yea the custom tag should be fine

[river oracle]

No it gives Test Stri

The top bound is exclusive and your subtracting 1

[flat olive]

So if I wanted to make my own rank system plugin, would I have to log each user on the server in a database to their assigned rank or would I just have the ranks setup in the database to where I can grant such and such user on my server a rank without needing to append their username to the database..?

[ivory sleet]

inclusive exclusive by convention:)

[river oracle]

Peppers 🌶 🌶

[ivory sleet]

Step 0 is to consider luckperms

[river oracle]

Step 1 give up use luckperms

[ivory sleet]

But yes

U’d store them in a database

[flat olive]

all of the users...

bruh

[ivory sleet]

Yea

I mean where else do u store info about their ranks

[river oracle]

No one here is going to help you with ranks if I wanted to suffer in hell I'd rather wait till I die no need to do it when I'm alive

[flat olive]

Nah the mongodb and storing each user granted a rank and by default on join the basic rank isn't hard at all
