[native nexus]

I remember having to use the windows api for C

[blazing ocean]

https://git.sakamoto.pl/domi/Witchcraft/ > spigot

[native nexus]

Switch statements 🤦

[rough ibex]

Is that gitea; awesome

[worldly ingot]

a Minecraft server, written in Bash

Some people have far too much free time

[rough ibex]

I remember seeing a writeup on it on HN before

[lost matrix]

We could just compile spigot to native binaries with Graal, no?

[shadow night]

You could but plugins?...

[blazing ocean]

"can somebody help me? heres my code:" ```bash
function timer() {
while true; do
if [[ $time_left -le 0 ]]; then
pos=$(cat $TEMP/players/$nick/position)
pkt_effect $(awk -F, '{print $1}' <<< "$pos") $(awk -F, '{print $2}' <<< "$pos") $(awk -F, '{print $3}' <<< "$pos") 1032
sleep 1
break
elif [[ $time_left -le 5 ]]; then
sleep 1
pos=$(cat $TEMP/players/$nick/position)
pkt_effect $(awk -F, '{print $1}' <<< "$pos") $(awk -F, '{print $2}' <<< "$pos") $(awk -F, '{print $3}' <<< "$pos") 1000
time_left=$((time_left-1))
elif [[ $time_left -le 10 ]]; then
sleep 5
time_left=$((time_left-5))
else
sleep 10
time_left=$((time_left-10))
fi
if [[ ! -a $TEMP/players/$nick ]]; then # die if disconnected
break
fi
pkt_chatmessage "§aTime left: §r${time_left}s" "00000000000000000000000000000000"
done
pkt_disconnect "Time's up! Your final score: §a$(cat $TEMP/players/$nick/score)"
}

[young knoll]

Wonder if hypixel does that

[peak jetty]

can i use this "§" instead of ChatColor?

[lost matrix]

Probably not. Something as dynamic as a game is quite difficult to not fk up with graal binaries.
There is no garbage collection, so everything needs to be statically analyzable at compiletime.

[worldly ingot]

What? Writes all software in Shell?

[young knoll]

You can but you shouldn’t

[worldly ingot]

Because that'd be so masochistic and awesome at the same time

[blazing ocean]

surely

[young knoll]

Nah graal

[worldly ingot]

oh lol

[peak jetty]

well because i want people to be able to change the messages in config and choose the color

[blazing ocean]

use some serializer

[dry hazel]

the graal substrate vm does have a gc

[worldly ingot]

You should use & instead and translate that into the section symbol

[young knoll]

That’s why you use & and translateAlternateColorCodes

Or minimessage or minedown or whatever

[rough ibex]

uhh

[blazing ocean]

ok buddy

[dry hazel]

?services probably

[undone axle]

If you wish to request or offer development/art/building/administration services, please do so at https://www.spigotmc.org/forums/services-recruitment-v2.54/

[worldly ingot]

Yeah that's a services thing :p

See thread above

[lost matrix]

But thats useless for compiled binaries which compile to llvm bitcode

Its only viable for running jvm bytecode or javascript, R etc

[young knoll]

Hypixel actually runs in web assembly

[lost matrix]

It runs in javascript. Without node. Some poor guys just have a blank website open all the time which run all the servers.

[blazing ocean]

just compile your entire server including resources and plugins to an exe guys

😔

[young knoll]

I wonder if any of hypixel is in Kotlin

[blazing ocean]

probably not

[young knoll]

Or Scala

[blazing ocean]

groovy

[lost matrix]

Honestly i should look a bit more into Graal and do some benchmarking with it.
Just to see if has general benefits over an openjdk for example.

[worldly ingot]

Fun fact: It's actually a web applet

(/s)

[young knoll]

Knew it

[rough ibex]

buildbattle.war

[young knoll]

Choco can you disclose if there is any Kotlin usage?

[blazing ocean]

buildbattle.bat

[lost matrix]

Dont tempt him

[worldly ingot]

I can probably say that the job listing doesn't require any Kotlin knowledge

So, do with that what you will

[rough ibex]

fair enough

[young knoll]

Fair enough

[blazing ocean]

thats sad

kotlin is really fun to use

[rough ibex]

to be fair, being a java dev and going to kotlin isn't hard

[round finch]

NO not kotlin

[dawn flower]

why are docs to annoying to make 😭

[rough ibex]

haha

[dawn flower]

how do i make this in a gitbook

[lost matrix]

I would be astonished if a big project actually decides to use Kotlin. The language is so scripty, i wouldnt want
a bigger team to throw their infix and extension garbage into every corner of the code.

[rough ibex]

explain

[dawn flower]

this thing

[blazing ocean]

mcc and mcci

[worldly ingot]

Would it not just be `this` in gitbook as well?

[dawn flower]

blah

[worldly ingot]

It's just Markdown so

[rough ibex]

yeah

[dawn flower]

oh

im dumb

[rough ibex]

you can write ```java
this
```

and whatever

I'm positive gitbooks has language highlighting

[lost matrix]

Depends on the installed style. But it has on default.

[round finch]

fail

[rough ibex]

hm?

[round finch]

//test

[rough ibex]

i intentionally wrote `

to show how to actually write it

[dry hazel]

every native image includes a substrate vm, it doesn't compile everything ahead of time

[lost matrix]

I wanna compile the spigot server with Graal now

[dry hazel]

it's probably possible without too many drawbacks

[dawn flower]

i didn't even make alot of actions and i spent an hour just writing player actions

[lost matrix]

I mean reflections are just dead -> Plugin loading will not work. Anything that does classpath scanning wont work.
Serializations based on marshalling wont work.

Thats what i imagine the drawbacks gonna be.

[young knoll]

No plugin loading seems like a bit of a drawback

[blazing ocean]

datapacks >>

[young knoll]

Will those load

Kek

[lost matrix]

Aaaand it died. Motivation gone. Im gonna do something else.

[rough ibex]

Datapacks should load as long as you have IO

[quaint mantle]

Any way to add hearts to the player but not show it past 2 bars? (1.20.4)

[rough ibex]

since they're all data driven

[young knoll]

Use the wacky health scaling system

[lost matrix]

Player#setHealthScale()

[shadow night]

Couldn't we theoretically rewrite it a bit so it will compile with the plugins inside or something

[lost matrix]

Shure you can just add your plugin as a dependency and shade it in.
Just need to find a way to run your onEnable and onDisable without the plugin loader.

[blazing ocean]

mixins /j

[lost matrix]

Or dont use JavaPlugin at all, since you are writing code directly into spigot in the first place

[dawn flower]

mixins should exist in plugins ngl

kinda useful

but abit op

[shadow night]

I bet every second plugin that uses mixins would just break all the other plugins

[dawn flower]

pretty sure the mixins in mod has a solution to that

[young knoll]

Well yes there is some effort to make 2 mixins to the same method not conflict

[shadow night]

It's called not using seven layers of abstraction (spigot api)

[young knoll]

But that doesn’t stop people from being dumb

[dawn flower]

loading order and mixin weight system could possibly be a solution

[shadow night]

We need some kind of nms plugin system

[dawn flower]

highest weight applies the mixin if it conflicts

[shadow night]

I think that'd be cool

[young knoll]

What does that even mean

[blazing ocean]

im ngl fabric devs seem so much smarter

[fallen lily]

Mixins are nice

[shadow night]

You use nms instead of api, and some kind of solution so it doesn't die every version cuz relocation and obfuscation

[dawn flower]

if 2 mixins conflict it sees the 'weight' of the mixin for each of the plugins and the highest 'weight' applies

if both are equal then it just picks whatever plugin loaded first

[young knoll]

Yes

But again that doesn’t stop people from being dumb

[shadow night]

Mod dev intelligence is above plugin dev intelligence

[blazing ocean]

random

[dawn flower]

imagine spaam restarting the server for that one plugin to work properly

💀

[shadow night]

Lmao

[blazing ocean]

LGTM

[young knoll]

Feeling cute might mixin Player.getItemInMainHand to always return a potato

[dawn flower]

🗿

[shadow night]

That sounds like the most mixin shit of all mixins

[blazing ocean]

so real

[dawn flower]

they could limit mixins to only add code and not modify the return value

to head or tail

[shadow night]

Then they are pointless

[dawn flower]

u got a point

[shadow night]

I always wanted to make cos always return 0.4719154

[dawn flower]

but this wouldnt be cool

[blazing ocean]

mixin to the bukkit class so it returns null for everything

[dawn flower]

mixin getServer to return null

and getPluginManager

watch 500 exceptions of plugins trying to register listeners

[blazing ocean]

mixin JavaPlugin so you cant getconfig and similar stuff

[dawn flower]

honestly adding a plugin from a dummy can do abunch of stuff anyways

they can break a plugin with reflection

they can break the entire server already so mixins wouldnt be that bad

[quaint mantle]

I think I broke something 💀https://imgur.com/a/xV9TNNV

[dawn flower]

exactly my point ^

[quaint mantle]

My command aint working

[blazing ocean]

mixin so the server owner cant do anything 💀

[dawn flower]

put the command in plugin.yml

[blazing ocean]

and has a diff name

[dawn flower]

bukkittask ban the owner

[quaint mantle]

Uhhh I don't have one

[dawn flower]

bukkittask ban everyone with perms that isn't u

[dawn flower]

h o w

in resources

[quaint mantle]

Nvm

I do

[dawn flower]

add

commands:
  commandName:
    description: description here
    permission: add a permission if needed
    usage: usage here```

to to end of plugin.yml

if u dont want a permission u can remove it

[young knoll]

I don’t think any are technically required

But yeah

[dawn flower]

you can literally do

commands:
  commandName:```

that works

[delicate lynx]

it's better to delcare permissions properly

[shadow night]

Why tf are those even required in the plugin.yml

[dawn flower]

infact i do that for test commands all the time

[shadow night]

Like, what made bukkit devs think people should hardcode their commands into fucking yaml files

[dawn flower]

you technically dont even need to put it in plugin.yml but it's better to than messing with command map

[blazing ocean]

AFAIK ACF does that

[dawn flower]

why cant u just make a command executor class with getPermission, getUsage, getPermissionMessage, getDescription and register that

[quaint mantle]

Yep It works now

[young knoll]

Yeah there are plenty of frameworks to do it without plugin.yml

[blazing ocean]

try ACF

[dawn flower]

honestly i dont like messing with command map

i like doing it the official way

[peak jetty]

how do you sent colors in console?

[dawn flower]

to avoid bugs

[blazing ocean]

brigadier?

[dawn flower]

you dont

you can do getLogger().warning

or .severe

.severe is red but .warning is better

[blazing ocean]

this actually works for me (pterodactyl)

[eternal oxide]

You can with ConsoleSender

[blazing ocean]

yeah

[eternal oxide]

So long as your console supports colours

[dawn flower]

most likely not

[young knoll]

The better method is to not tho

Logs don’t need fancy colors

[dawn flower]

it gets mest up

if it doesnt support colors

[eternal oxide]

colours in console are a bitch for logs

[dawn flower]

honestly dont even tell the console itt cant run that command

most plugins dont pretty sure

i personally dont, it's pointless

[young knoll]

Better than just doing nothing with no message

[dawn flower]

if ur command for example opens a gui, what is the console expecting

[sterile flicker]

is there a pathfinder so that the entity does not move further than a certain distance from spawn?

[dawn flower]

nms

[sterile flicker]

yes

[dawn flower]

or use listeners and teleport the entity back if it got too far

[sterile flicker]

but is there such a pathfinder?

[dawn flower]

prob not

u gotta make ur own

[eternal oxide]

kinda, but it's dragon logic

[dawn flower]

cant wait for his skeleton to fly

[young knoll]

There’s a few mobs with that behaviour

But it’s better to just make your own

[sterile flicker]

this applies to husk zombies?

[young knoll]

?

[quaint mantle]

Well it now gives me the usage and shows the command but the command doesn't work

and now my loop is broken

[dawn flower]

uh how do i fix /untitled in gitbook

[sterile flicker]

well, you know, for them such a target/goalselector?

[quaint mantle]

?files

?upload

?file

[sterile flicker]

or I can't avoid creating my own

[quaint mantle]

?code

?msg

[young knoll]

I don’t think there’s any that will work out of the box

[quaint mantle]

[young knoll]

You misspelt the command in your plugin.yml

[blazing ocean]

damn lmao

[quaint mantle]

Now it works 💀

Well now I have this

https://imgur.com/a/glnflNc

It doesn't do what I expected very nice

Yea I figured out why

[acoustic pendant]

How can I avoid numbers showing like this?

[sterile flicker]

nms pathfinders. how to cancel the move of an entity through getNavigation?

[chrome beacon]

§r or just give them a white color

§f

[blazing ocean]

they mean the number format

[acoustic pendant]

I mean, the price

[chrome beacon]

oh xd

[acoustic pendant]

yea

[chrome beacon]

Use the NumberFormat class

[acoustic pendant]

But it doesn't allow more than integer limit

[chrome beacon]

or DecimalFormat if you want decimals

[acoustic pendant]

At least what I tried

[chrome beacon]

DecimalFormat should allow that

[acoustic pendant]

I'll try that thanks

[quaint mantle]

Uhhh the maxhealth variable isn't player specific

[acoustic pendant]

However I was looking to show numbers like 3k 5m or 7b is that possible with decimalformat? I was using numberformat and it worked, but not for more than integerlimit

[young knoll]

Use the players attributes to change their max health

[chrome beacon]

I've always used my own method for that

[young knoll]

Specifically attribute.GENERIC_MAX_HEALTH

[chrome beacon]

There's probably a better way to do it though 🤷‍♂️

[rough ibex]

That's how I've been doing it, not sure there is another way

[acoustic pendant]

Yea, I was told that, i'll try that ig

[quaint mantle]

I'm trying to use like a custom one tho.. like the one hypixel uses in skyblock

[dawn flower]

how do i check if a crop is grown from a Block object

[chrome beacon]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/block/data/Ageable.html

[dawn flower]

can that be used to check if a block is a crop

[young knoll]

There is actually a formatter for that in newer java

[chrome beacon]

Would be more performant to check the material yourself

[young knoll]

CompactNumberFormat

[dawn flower]

wait wouldnt CropState work as well?

[young knoll]

They create a custom object for each player and then map it to their uuid

Or something similar anyway

[chrome beacon]

oh nice

[peak jetty]

an error is saying that this message is null:

[acoustic pendant]

sorry for the question, but something like this would work? Xd

        String pattern = "##.#";
        DecimalFormat decimalFormat = new DecimalFormat(pattern);

        if (money >= 1000 && money < 10000) {
            String format = decimalFormat.format(money);
        } else if (money >= 10000 && money < 100000) {
            String format = decimalFormat.format(money);
        }```

[chrome beacon]

Guess it's null then

[peak jetty]

but i set it here:

[rough ibex]

did you set a wrongUsage field

[chrome beacon]

^^

[rough ibex]

I assume EasyBanGUI is the plugin and you're looking for the static field

[peak jetty]

yeah

[chrome beacon]

and when is that called

[rough ibex]

it would be nice to see more than 1 line at a time too

and maybe as text

?paste pls

[undone axle]

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

[peak jetty]

this is my main class https://paste.md-5.net/sofokeviqo.java

[dawn flower]

usage:

in plugin.yml

[rough ibex]

do you understand what static does

and why its different from not static

[peak jetty]

i think so, kinda new to java tho

[chrome beacon]

alr then stop the static abuse

[young knoll]

Aboose

[rapid vigil]

reminds me when i was so noob i used to abuse static :p

[rough ibex]

static abuse is using static when you shouldn't

[peak jetty]

how should i be doing it then?

[chrome beacon]

?di

[undone axle]

Guide to dependency injection: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/using-dependency-injection/

[chrome beacon]

Use di

[peak jetty]

but doesnt it work either way?

[chrome beacon]

Ideally you'd split things up in to more classes

[blazing ocean]

is this what you call static aboos

[rough ibex]

Yes

[hazy parrot]

Yea

[blazing ocean]

i have way more but i wont go over it

[ivory sleet]

more like companion object abuse lol

[peak jetty]

ill do that after but why is the message resulting as null?

[blazing ocean]

is this better? (other project)

[young knoll]

Kotlin wacky

What is lateinit

[blazing ocean]

smh

its something that gets initialized later

[fallen lily]

you can move JSON & RESOURCE_PACK_URL to the top level of the file

[blazing ocean]

its like a "trust me bro" sorta thing

[chrome beacon]

that's because you're never loading your messages file in to the messages variable

You instead create an empty config

and then load the file ignoring the result

[peak jetty]

and how do i do that?

[chrome beacon]

Use the loaded messages file

save it to the messages variable instead of ignoring it

[peak jetty]

like this?

[rapid vigil]

no

[chrome beacon]

That's you saving it

well saving an empty config

[blazing ocean]

also you shouldnt throw runtime errors for that

in most cases

[rapid vigil]

is it bad for performance

[blazing ocean]

why would it be

[rapid vigil]

then why shouldnt he

[blazing ocean]

why do you want errors in your console for that

[chrome beacon]

if it fails to save the config

[peak jetty]

how do i then?

[rapid vigil]

ooh i didnt know throwing an exception would shutdown the server

[young knoll]

It doesn’t

[blazing ocean]

is it a runtime exception thing?

[young knoll]

Unless it’s in a critical part of code that triggers a crash

[rapid vigil]

oh so throwing a runtime exception after failing to save the file would cause it to shutdown

[young knoll]

It shouldn’t

[chrome beacon]

yeah ignore me

either way that's a bad error to use there

[rapid vigil]

wut

[blazing ocean]

catching an error and throwing another one also isnt good

[young knoll]

It’s best to log a message and then either disable the plugin or do something to recover

[blazing ocean]

at that point just dont trycatch

[peak jetty]

@chrome beacon i dont really get how im meant to do it

[chrome beacon]

It's a 1 line change

Don't over think it

[peak jetty]

should i be changing createCustomConfig();?

[chrome beacon]

yes

[rapid vigil]

Olivo you dont die if you spoonfeed 😜

jk

[peak jetty]

any clue lol?

[chrome beacon]

What part of your code could do this

[peak jetty]

createCustomConfig(); creates and empty config right?

[chrome beacon]

yes

but why does it do that

[young knoll]

Slime spotted

[chrome beacon]

sweats

[peak jetty]

because im not giving it the file?

[chrome beacon]

sort of

[rapid vigil]

because youre not giving it a loaded file

[chrome beacon]

^^

[zealous osprey]

you called?

[chrome beacon]

wrong slime

[peak jetty]

so i gotta change something here?

private void createCustomConfig() {
        messagesFile = new File(getDataFolder(), "message.yml");
        if (!messagesFile.exists()) {
            messagesFile.getParentFile().mkdirs();
            saveResource("messages.yml", false);
        }
        messages = new YamlConfiguration();
        YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(messagesFile);
    }```

[chrome beacon]

yes

[rapid vigil]

fOr ThE 500tH tImE yEs HeRe

[chrome beacon]

Try asking better questions

you've asked the same thing like 3 times now

If you can't find the problem try explaining row for row what the code does

[peak jetty]

so it sets messagesFile to messages.yml

then if it doesnt exist it creates it and saves it

then it makes messages a yamlconfiguration

[rapid vigil]

oh btw, heres a side note

[peak jetty]

wait the probems here

[chrome beacon]

mhm

[peak jetty]

oh yeah oops

[peak jetty]

so it loads a new configuration(messagesFile) instead of loading it from messages?

[chrome beacon]

?

You're loading the messageFile and doing nothing with it

if that's what you're asking

[rapid vigil]

more like doing nothing with it then loading it?

[chrome beacon]

no

[rapid vigil]

oops sorry

[chrome beacon]

messages will always be an empty config because you're just making it an empty config

instead of using the loaded one

[rapid vigil]

youre not using the one you need to use but instead making an empty one

[peak jetty]

i got it!

[chrome beacon]

Not quite what I had in mind

[peak jetty]

oh

it works now tho

[chrome beacon]

messages = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(messagesFile);

[young knoll]

YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration

Doesn’t throw any exceptions

Actually I think it can still throw invalid

But not io

[peak jetty]

oh ok

[ocean hollow]

how can I get amount of lines in TextDisplay?

[chrome beacon]

You can use a regex to count line breaks

[ocean hollow]

like it? and than .length?

[young knoll]

Does the line break even get added server side

[chrome beacon]

It's just a string?

[tawdry echo]

What do you think about SmartInvs? It's good to use or something else?

[chrome beacon]

or am I missing smth

[young knoll]

I know you can manually add line breaks

But you can also just set a size for it to automatically break

[chrome beacon]

I guess it would be a component and Spigot doesn't expose that

[chrome beacon]

ah didn't know that

[young knoll]

Idk if the breaks are added on the server or the client though

[chrome beacon]

Never used them

[ocean hollow]

If transfers are made automatically there, then I can’t find out? or how?

[tawdry echo]

bump

[young knoll]

The heck is smartinvs

[tawdry echo]

Why?

[dawn flower]

how do i make an api for a paid plugin without accidently giving free access to the plugin

[glad prawn]

is it related to development?

[inner mulch]

it seems like it updates the invs every tick

[chrome beacon]

It's a library I think

[inner mulch]

i wouldnt use it

[chrome beacon]

Split the API out from the main plugin

to it's own module and jar

[dawn flower]

then how does the api interact with the plugin

[chrome beacon]

Your plugin contains the api

[dawn flower]

oh

ic

[inner mulch]

guys do you think i should make my own placeholderapi?

[rough ibex]

like, your own placeholders?

or your own placeholderAPI fork

[inner mulch]

no fork my own plugin

[chrome beacon]

PlaceholderAPI with Component support

[inner mulch]

making a placeholderapi doesnt seem to hard, or is there anything i might have overlooked in terms of how hard it can get to create one?

[chrome beacon]

The hardest part is getting people to use it

[inner mulch]

im not planning to publish it, i just wanted to create it myself so i dont rely on a plugin

[chrome beacon]

Then no it's not hard

[hazy parrot]

I mean papi is kinda standard, can't see reason to not rely on it

[final wharf]

Im trying to shade BoostedYaml into my plugin but i get this error when building https://pastebin.com/7jitAWr4

[eternal oxide]

why boosted?

[quiet ice]

try updating maven-shade-plugin

[final wharf]

a friend told me its easier for begineers

[final wharf]

wdym?

[eternal oxide]

he lied

[final wharf]

i just like how boostedyaml is

[quiet ice]

fork me over your pom

[eternal oxide]

Snake Yaml that is already bundled with Spigot is simplest to use

[final wharf]

https://pastebin.com/J2aSGEX4

[quiet ice]

Update line 33 to 3.5.2 (latest version of maven-shade-plugin as per https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.maven.plugins/maven-shade-plugin/)

[final wharf]

it got underlined

[quiet ice]

Consider updating the other plugins too if you are already at it and they aren't updated yet - I don't know the latest versions from the top of my heart though

[final wharf]

reloaded maven

[quiet ice]

Flush caches and restart the IDE

[final wharf]

the other plugins are on latest

[final wharf]

how do i flush caches?

[quiet ice]

Unless you provide me with a good enough log it's an IJ issue and not something I can support you with

[final wharf]

what other stuff do you need?

[quiet ice]

Just restart the IDE

Else, wait until some IJ fanboy arrives. Here, I'll summon them for you: Eclipse is the best IDE ever

[final wharf]

intellij is full of bloatware and is good for begineers like me

[quiet ice]

Oh, and don't duplicate the maven-shade-plugin entry

[final wharf]

oh okay

still with red

[quiet ice]

why does maven even allow that?

[quiet ice]

Does it at least build regardless of it being hinted as invalid?

[final wharf]

nope

https://pastebin.com/gRAPnJxb

[quiet ice]

What is the build error?

[final wharf]

i would honestly just go with gradle

its easier to shade in gradle

[quiet ice]

that is using the old maven-shade-plugin version...

what pom are you using right now? This shouldn't be that complicated

In fact, shading in maven is miles easier than in gradle (though you give up quite a lot of control in the process)

[quiet ice]

Remove lines 51 to 63, they are redundant

[final wharf]

done

[quiet ice]

Why that is a valid POM is beyond me, but I suppose it has to do with how maven evaluates super-POMs being a bit too hacky which ends up being all too lax

Does it build now?

[final wharf]

it did

lemme try and do something with boosted yaml

and see if it acctually shaded

[quiet ice]

Great, you may need to restart your IDE though.
Also, it'll shade unconditionally so you can simply look at the filesize and if it is inflated it did some shading

Regardless of whether a dependency is being used.

Also, beware: This pom shades in adventure-api, which is provided on paper already and won't work as-is on bukkit.

As such, I recommend to set scopes explicitly (provided for stuff that doesn't need to be shaded [as it is provided by bukkit or by another plugin] and compile for dependencies that need to be shaded [usually 3rd party libraries])

[final wharf]

the plugin is with paper's api

its a paper plugin

"where i am"

[quiet ice]

then don't shade in adventure-api

[final wharf]

its only minimessage

[quiet ice]

Hell, I wouldn't even declare the dependency

[final wharf]

afaik

eh

if it doesnt cause issues

[quiet ice]

Well shading the dependency does cause issues (the least of which is inflated file size)

[final wharf]

1mb at most

[quiet ice]

hence, the least. The bigger one is that you'll get classloading failures if the paper classloader isn't smart enough to ignore your shaded adventure classes

Removing the dependency means that you'll have access to the same version of adventure that paper uses which means that you'll not be troubled by out-of-date stuff or other incompatibilities

[rough ibex]

its a general question

[quiet ice]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/listening-to-all-events-listing-all-events.337466/

At least I think that is the correct article

For some reason I am now forced to enable 2FA to view threads?

[dawn flower]

i found this which looks simpler

RegisteredListener registeredListener = new RegisteredListener(this, (listener, event) -> onEvent(event), EventPriority.NORMAL, MAINCLASS, false);
        for (HandlerList handler : HandlerList.getHandlerLists())
            handler.register(registeredListener);```

but im not sure what it means by MAINCLASS

[rough ibex]

I would imagine your plugin

its main class...

[quiet ice]

Nah

[rough ibex]

ah

[quiet ice]

?jd-s

[undone axle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot

[kind hatch]

Couldn’t be that easy

[quiet ice]

Okay, apparently yes

Who the fuck names their plugin instance like that

[kind hatch]

I would assume that is placeholder text

[rough ibex]

yeah

[quiet ice]

At least use JavaPlugin.getPlugin(ExamplePlugin.class)

But no, it has to be MAINCLASS

But I digress

[dawn flower]

RegisteredListener registeredListener = new RegisteredListener(eventListener, (listener, event) -> eventListener.onEvent(event), EventPriority.NORMAL, this, false);

like this?

[quiet ice]

Hm great, the email of my account is technically speaking a deadname, so I'll probably end up doing 2FA the hard way

[undone vapor]

anybody know if it's possible to intercept network streams before any handshaking has been done on a Spigot/Bukkit server using mixins?

[quiet ice]

I suppose you already use ignite or comparable?

But I don't think mixins is required here, you can plainly attach you code to the netty channel handler

They are most likely not

[undone vapor]

can this be done with protocollib?

I need to be able to intercept the raw streams and take control of them if the data received passes some checks

Okay thanks

[final wharf]

https://pastebin.com/eFyYh3Uq this is an error im getting in the server console

[quiet ice]

Check Flux.java:44. Otherwise not much I can do here

Outside guessing ofc

[final wharf]

it was something with boostedyaml

[quaint mantle]

can someone help me w my server rq pls

[final wharf]

dont ask to ask

[quaint mantle]

what

[undone vapor]

Is it possible to intercept data this before the player actually "joins" the server? I need to read right from the connection of the client to listen for a custom handshake format

[quaint mantle]

pls someone help me

[quiet ice]

I don't think so?

[quiet ice]

[final wharf]

thanks for the help

[chrome beacon]

wrong channel stay in help server

[quiet ice]

this is #help-development FYI

I'll bully you off this channel if I have to :meanfaceemojiiiiiii:

[chrome beacon]

It's already fixed

No need to ask for assistance with it

[quiet ice]

Well I mean you only have to get access to the netty pipeline. But given that I never touched NMS I cannot assist you further

[young knoll]

Unfortunately that error isn’t very helpful in finding the cause

[chrome beacon]

eh I know what the issue is

[tulip owl]

Has anyone ever tried implementing NuVotifier in Minestom? Or even something that is platform agnostic

[chrome beacon]

Just going to delay the answer since they decided to try and ping @here

[chrome beacon]

It shouldn't be hard to do

[young knoll]

Isn’t it fairly platform agnostic already

[chrome beacon]

It is

[tulip owl]

Ah, nice

[young knoll]

Since it’s mostly just dealing with http stuff

[tulip owl]

Yeah

I guess I’ll see if i can implement it without any commands or config though as that’s what I’d prefer in a Minestom environment

Is protocol V1 used any more? Do I need to bother supporting it

[quiet ice]

You most likely could make use of the common artifact as-is as it has Velocity support it shouldn't depend on anything NMS-related anyways

and the bukkit implementation is incredibly stripped down

[tulip owl]

Ah, yeah! I’ll take a look through common and see

[dawn flower]

damn im so proud of myself

i made an addon system first try

🔥

[quiet ice]

with a custom classloader?

[dawn flower]

(im not that advanced)

explain in simpler terms

[quiet ice]

oh god, that does not bode well

[dawn flower]

i might have a custom classloader and i woudlnt know

[quiet ice]

You probably do know given that I mean anything being an or subclassing ClassLoader with that

unless you don't mean the same with addon system as I do

[dawn flower]

it's basically just the good ol' addon system where you register an addon object with stuff like skript

[tulip owl]

Isn’t that what the Bukkit API is for?

[analog mantle]

Do you guys have any ideas how I can format this better?
[Sword] 2 is the amount of danger that item has.
+1 [Shield] is the percent of damage you take. (100% is 1, .75 is 75% damage)
+1.02 [Crossed Swords] is the amount of damage that you deal in 1 damage (Currently deals 2% more damage, no limit)

[quiet ice]

ah well then, yea. I was thinking of something else. But then again, I do a bit too much with classloaders so I immediately jumped to the conclusion that you decided to go down that dangerous path

[dawn flower]

ah

im still insanely proud

cuz of how hardcoded my code was

which is a bad thing

but now i dont have to worry about adding 500 actions and 600 events and 300 placeholders

[quiet ice]

danger versus damage is rather confusing, but I cannot help with the formatting.
Perhaps represent danger with a flame instead if that is possible?
Swords are almost always associated with damage in video games.

And the shield is a bit confusing too given that usually higher is better when associating it with green text and pluses

For the incoming damage either use something like "x1.0"/ "x0.75" or "100%"/"75%", which is probably the best way out there (and use hex colors to make 1x be red and 0x green, and neatly color the rest in between)

[dawn flower]

it should be a new line for each stat

maybe bold the 2 swords abit

[analog mantle]

That's too much bloat in the lore tho

[dawn flower]

limit double to 1 decimal point

[dawn flower]

that makes it cleaner

the 2 swords are too thin

the new line is optional

[rough ibex]

I disagree

clearly visible

[quiet ice]

the main problem I see are the symbols that are used and what they convey

[dawn flower]

but thin

1 pixel wide

[quiet ice]

We are playing minecraft, a pixel is rather large here

though honestly you can't be talking about a pixel here

[dawn flower]

just make it bold and compare both

[rough ibex]

Nah

[dawn flower]

ok so now how do i disconnect my api from the plugin so people cant get the plugin for free

[rough ibex]

Remove the key

just delete the api key

[dawn flower]

?

[rough ibex]

what are you doing

[dawn flower]

im talking abt an api like a dependency

[dawn flower]

that looks

[rough ibex]

[dawn flower]

[dawn flower]

how does one explain this

[quiet ice]

Remove the implementation of methods, https://github.com/Geolykt/TTDeploy/blob/main/src/main/java/de/geolykt/ttdeploy/TTDeploy.java-style

[dawn flower]

[rough ibex]

You want people to be able to talk to your plugin

without providing it

Yes?

[dawn flower]

[inner mulch]

making an rpg?

[dawn flower]

no he's making bedwars

what do u think

[inner mulch]

it can be anything

[analog mantle]

No, a danger level plugin. Basically players kill other players for danger and gain stats on their danger

[dawn flower]

oh

[inner mulch]

interesting idea, are you a fan of smps?

[analog mantle]

I dabble.

[dawn flower]

make a cooldown on each account

so people dont spam kill alts

[inner mulch]

DangerSMP incoming?

[analog mantle]

I promise you, we've thought all of that through.

[dawn flower]

that's cool

[analog mantle]

I think I want to change the crossed swords to +1.02 to +2%

what would be the equation for that

[inner mulch]

1.02 times 100 - 100 = 2 + "%"

[analog mantle]

I got it

[rough ibex]

The order of the icons isnt consistent

[analog mantle]

?

[inner mulch]

1st parameter has icon first

[rough ibex]

Icon number number icon number icon

[inner mulch]

2nd paramter has icon last

3rd parameter has icon last

[analog mantle]

good?

[inner mulch]

looks good

[analog mantle]

But the green part is a little misleading

[inner mulch]

green part defense?

[analog mantle]

I would assume as a player, that the higher the green, the better. In reality, it's actually the opposite. The closer to 0 green is, the less damage you take

[quiet ice]

yeah, I already outlined possible solutions there

[inner mulch]

in this case, why not invert the system

[quiet ice]

Also, green = good; red = bad. Keep this video game logic in mind

[analog mantle]

Yes, red = bad

If you have higher danger, you are inherently more dangerous = more outlawish

[quiet ice]

Yeah, damage is the only real place where this rule doesn't really apply tbh

[analog mantle]

Japanese Symbol For Beginner or Shield emoji?

[rough ibex]

shield

[analog mantle]

How can I convey that the player only takes that amount of damage

Maybe I invert it and make it +7%

[short shale]

hello guys, i would like to know how can i get the truth item's name

item.getItemMeta().getDisplayName() doesn't works

[analog mantle]

I like that

Welp, I think that's wraps

thank you guys

[chrome beacon]

The server only has the english language file

Ideally you wouldn't get the name yourself and use a translatable component instead

[short shale]

i've heard about it before

i'll try, thank you ❤️

you can do anything

playing a sound isn't hard

[oak bolt]

i dont particularly want to spend months learning java for something il only use once

[glad prawn]

then ask chat gpt

[shadow night]

And fail again

Without learning java you won't be able to do anything in java

[oak bolt]

im not tryna make a massive plugin for a massive server, im just tryna get help making a very tiny thing that just adds a single effect to a plugin...

[shadow night]

And you'll still want to know java

[oak bolt]

ok, let me clear this up

i dont want to learn java, i want help making this one thing, then il most likely never touch java in my life again...

i already established i just want help making this one tiny thing

[glad prawn]

i mean you can ask the devs in that plugin's community to help create it instead of asking here.

[shadow night]

Yes

[oak bolt]

thats the first thing i did

[shadow night]

And if you are lacking java knowledge, they'll tell you to learn java

We aren't a java support discord, this is spigot

[oak bolt]

yea

ik

so idk y ur so adamant about java

[shadow night]

Because you need java to code a plugin

[oak bolt]

why are you so adamant about telling me this when im just asking for help with this one thing?

[blazing ocean]

you see how that says "advanced plugins"?

[shadow night]

Because you will most likely ask the most fucking stupid frustrating questions that can be solved by

1. Googling for 2 seconds
2. Learning java

[oak bolt]

bro why

why tf are you being like this

[blazing ocean]

...

[lost matrix]

This can not be done without a basic knowledge about java and the spigot api.
Hire a developer or learn to write code. Those are the only options available.

[blazing ocean]

you need to know java to make plugins

or, hell, use skriptlang

[shadow night]

Some people 😑

[blazing ocean]

did they leave

[shadow night]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[blazing ocean]

looks like it

[shadow night]

Imagine you are trying to use an API without knowing the programming language

[blazing ocean]

and trying to do an advanced project for a "small plugin"

[shadow night]

Lmao

[lean arrow]

I think not knowing it is fine, people start somewhere, is fine but not wanting to know it is just ignorant

But idk what that guy was trying to achieve

[shadow night]

Usually when I try to write in a language I never wrote in before I try to not ask questions in any communities and just google

And that's how I learnt java

i swear i literally had that in 2 seconds ago and it didnt work smh

er but i was told yesterday that i need just the spigot and not the spigot-api

because i need to fix these 2 errors

[lost matrix]

Ah you need craftbukkit.
In that case: Change spigot-api to spigot and make sure to run BuildTools for that version.
Using NMS requires you to locally build spigot at least once, because the sources cant be distributed.
Running BuildTools will do that for you.

What do you need nms for btw?

[calm lichen]

right and thats where i got stuck yesterday having installed buildtools but not really understanding what exactly i needed to do with it

[fallen lily]

You can just import packages now?

Thats crazy

[calm lichen]

I'm forking over a core plugin that one of my buddies made for a prisons server several years ago to make it work on 1.20 rather than 1.8, just going off of his code rather than trying to redo everything from the ground up but I'm realizing now that that is probably the better choice lol

and he uses those imports for CraftPlayer and a couple other things

[lost matrix]

A lot of stuff which needed nms and crafbukkit back then, is now supported in the API.
It has been 8 years after all.

[calm lichen]

haha yea i figured

[calm lichen]

yea lol

im just gonna redo the whole thing from scratch 🙂

now that I understand and organized everything I have a much better idea how I want to do everything

[zealous osprey]

Yeah, understandable. But make sure that you don't fall into the trap of rewriting the same thing 100 times. Speaking from personal experience.
Because if you just keep rewriting your old code, you'll never get further.
This is to say, don't get stuck trying to perfect something if it isn't necessary. But instead, learn when to rewrite something.

imo

[fallen lily]

I like to think of stuff functionally before I introduce OOP, or else you get this eerie “Enterpriseness” feeling where suddenly X can be turned into a builder, Y can be a delegate etc etc and in the end you’re wasting hours working on abstraction which you don’t even end up needing

Language also helps, Kotlin for sure is easiest to prototype in

[twin venture]

sure :
the problem is it update and add the enchant to the item that is in the opned inventory and not to the item in the player inventory!

[radiant aspen]

Yo, is the best way to listen for if a spawner has changed type by listening to PlayerInteractEvent? is there really no specific event?

And assuming alot of servers will disable this feature, is there a way to see if its disabled or not? just check if event is canceled? is there a gamerule or anything in spigot.yml I should be aweare of?

[twin venture]

i got everything working now , only 1 bug left ..
it duplicate the item when i enchant :

• enchanted new item
• old not enchanted item
  both are in player inventory :p
  how i can fix it?

[fallen lily]

clickedItem wouldn’t be in the players inventory though right?

Its in the UI’s inventory

[smoky anchor]

Please use guard clauses, not arrow anti-pattern

if (clickedItem == null) return;

[fallen lily]

Beautiful depiction

[radiant aspen]

https://tenor.com/view/saiyan-super-gif-24981467

[twin venture]

yes so how i can remove the item in player inv or update it

:p

[lost matrix]

Just set its ItemMeta

[fallen lily]

So im quite confused

How is the item ending up in the player inventory

Does this only occur on shift click

[pseudo hazel]

is that not the same item?

or does it get copied

[slate surge]

can any1 explain me why this shit works in one method and not the other?
gameSession.addPlacedBlocks(location);

basically

[twin venture]

copied

[slate surge]

when i add that method

it adds an item but also replaces the all old ones with the new one

[agile anvil]

Show your method

[slate surge]

where it works ```java
@EventHandler
public void onBlockPlace(BlockPlaceEvent event)
{
if (event.getPlayer().getGameMode() == GameMode.SURVIVAL)
{
Location location = event.getBlock().getLocation();
gameSession.addPlacedBlocks(location);
}

}```

where it doesn't works

private void setBlockLayer(Location location, Material material, int xOffset, int yOffset, int zOffset)
    {
        location.add(xOffset, yOffset, zOffset);
        location.getBlock().setType(material);
        System.out.println("Item: " + location);
        gameSession.addPlacedBlocks(location);
        for (Location _location : gameSession.getPlacedBlocks())
        {
            System.out.println("List item: " + _location);
        }

    }```
please ignore the debug souts

[agile anvil]

So what exactly doesn't work ?

[slate surge]

in the setBlockLayer method

the list should be like this with every call

[location1]
[location1, location2]
but is rather
[location1]
[location2, location2]

[agile anvil]

1. Can u show your GameSession thingy?
2. Please clone the location before applying an offset (especially if it's loc from a player)

its from variables so double x = config.getDouble(path + ".x");
double y = config.getDouble(path + ".y");
double z = config.getDouble(path + ".z");

        Location location = new Location(world, x, y, z);

[slate surge]

? i like that way with starting the braces from new line

[agile anvil]

Do Location have a proper toString method?
What is the output when you print a location?

[slate surge]

when printing the location which is the param it prints correctly but when lopping it messes up

first two method calls

List item: Location{world=CraftWorld{name=world},x=93.0,y=58.0,z=-4.0,pitch=0.0,yaw=0.0}

Item: Location{world=CraftWorld{name=world},x=93.0,y=59.0,z=-4.0,pitch=0.0,yaw=0.0}

List item: Location{world=CraftWorld{name=world},x=93.0,y=59.0,z=-4.0,pitch=0.0,yaw=0.0}

List item: Location{world=CraftWorld{name=world},x=93.0,y=59.0,z=-4.0,pitch=0.0,yaw=0.0}```

[agile anvil]

When do you call setBlockLayer?

[sand spire]

Is it safe to use timestamps as unique identifiers or is it possible for 1 player (with autoclicker) to click twice in the same millisecond?

[eternal night]

I mean, even if you'd immediately process two interaction packets, the event handler would not be called in the same milli second

if you wanna go real sure, nano second exists too

tho the values of those are ehhh, not as well defined

[thorn crypt]

Hello, does someone know how I could spawn DragonBreath ?

[lost matrix]

I think nano is fairly unique for the current runtime. But dont persist it.

[eternal night]

Yea

[lost matrix]

Isnt that just a lingering potion entity?

[eternal night]

I mean, or you just go the normal uuid route and safe yourself the trouble or something doing something stupid.

[sand spire]

It's for auction listings within a UUID, to identify the specific auction

[thorn crypt]

yes thanks !! I was searching the word but couldn't find it !! 😭

[sand spire]

But I'll just add a check to cancel the creation of the timestamp if it already exist. No one would ever notice except cheaters 💀

[eternal night]

Yea but why base it on a timestamp when you can just add a uuid?

[sand spire]

You mean a UUID or UID cause every UUID(Player) can have multiple auctions

[eternal night]

no like, for every auction you just create a new random uuid for its id

[lost matrix]

You can just give a UUID to an auction

[slate surge]

a lot of time

[sand spire]

I thought UUID meant UniqueUserID

that's why i was confuse

[eternal night]

like, SQL wise you'd have like

identifier UUID,
owning_player UUID,
creation TIMESTAMP

[slate surge]

double x = config.getDouble(path + ".x");
            double y = config.getDouble(path + ".y");
            double z = config.getDouble(path + ".z");

            Location location = new Location(world, x, y, z);

            setBlockLayer(location, Material.getMaterial(26), 0, 0, 0);
            setBlockLayer(location, Material.getMaterial(5), 0, 1, 0);
            setBlockLayer(location, Material.ENDER_STONE, 0, 1, 0);

            setBlockLayer(location, Material.getMaterial(26), -1, -2, 0);
            setBlockLayer(location, Material.getMaterial(5), 0, 1, 0);
            setBlockLayer(location, Material.ENDER_STONE, 0, 1, 0);

[sand spire]

I'm using mongodb but I guess I could use an ObjectID instead of a date of creation as I can extract the date from the _id

[lost matrix]

You can use UUIDs as primary ids in mongo. Indexing is very quick even.

[worldly ingot]

Universally unique id. Close

[sand spire]

oh lmao I was getting confused, I kept thinking they were talking about the player uuid

[worldly ingot]

Nah you can just generate a random one

It's just a combination of two random longs, basically

[sand spire]

but doesn't it have to check if all the other uuid's don't match the new one

oh wait nvm cause they use the timestamp for creating it

[dawn flower]

what's the difference between

FishHook#setMinLureTime
and
FishHook#setMinWaitTime
and
FishHook#setMinLureAngle

which one sets the fishing speed, if any even sets it

[worldly ingot]

Wait time is before a fish bites, so that's probably the one you want

[worldly ingot]

Lure time is the time it takes for a fish that is currently swimming (the little particles) to reach your bobber

[sand spire]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/FishHook.html

[dawn flower]

luretime and wait time are the same

[worldly ingot]

No they're different :p

[dawn flower]

what's the difference

[worldly ingot]

One is before the fish particles show up, one is after

Lure time is the fish particle duration

[dawn flower]

intresting

[worldly ingot]

Wait time is the time between fish particles showing up

[dawn flower]

what abt lure angle

[worldly ingot]

That's just the angle that the fish is coming towards you at (while its particles spawn)

[sand spire]

So if you want you can prank everyone by making the lure time longer and the wait time shorter 💀

[dawn flower]

so the limit is 360?

cuz a circle im guessing

[worldly ingot]

Yeah I think I had it wrap around though

It's in degrees, so yes, 360

[dawn flower]

👍

[lost matrix]

Just did a quick estimate.
If you start to generate a million random UUIDs every minute from now on, the chance of a collision would be around 1% after 15 million years.

[dawn flower]

last thing, can you listen for armor change event without looping all players every second or using paper api?

[worldly ingot]

We don't have an armour change event in Spigot unfortunately. We've had one PR'd for some time now but nobody's updated it to the latest version to get merged

[young knoll]

I was told diamond was just busy!

[worldly ingot]

Yeah she was busy. I ACTUALLY GOT TO CHAT WITH HER LAST WEEK THOUGH. SHE'S ALIVE

[dawn flower]

is there a way to listen tho

[worldly ingot]

I just didn't wanna prod her the first second I saw her though

Like "Hey, nice to see you again! Wanna get back to work on the armour PR?"

[sand spire]

people in the future gonna have problems with this xd

[young knoll]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/armorequipevent-for-spigot-api.545188/

[sand spire]

Like this or should I use a non-spigot method
UUID.randomUUID();

[young knoll]

That is a non spigot method

[worldly ingot]

Yep, that's good

That's a standard JDK method

[sand spire]

ooh

[young knoll]

Time for spigot to invent our own!

The SUUID: Super Universally Unique Identifier

256 bits

[lost matrix]

Its backed by a global database which checks every single instance ever created to make sure its actually super unique

[sand spire]

Uh, how would I get the timestamp from a UUID? Cause I heard the timestamp is used in generating it

                    Instant.from(timestamp);```

[young knoll]

UUID.randomUUID(); is a v4 uuid

Which has no timestamp

[sand spire]

oh

i guess I'll just use MongoDB's ObjectID then so I have an identifier and a timestamp at the same time

[lost matrix]

Or you just use a UUID and a timestamp...

[young knoll]

But muh bytes!

[sand spire]

^

i learned that in code less is more

Why get a music app AND a streaming app if I can just get youtube premium 🤷‍♂️

[worldly ingot]

I mean really you're talking about the difference between 8 bytes and 12 bytes :p

I don't know how unique you want to go but you could also just use a single integer as the unique id, but if you're going to access the timestamp often, store it as a separate field

[sand spire]

I'm storing auctions like this in MongoDB and I need to use the timestamp to track when to expire the auction, and I need the UUID to know which auction to set to "sold: true"

But I load all auctions once onEnable so i'd only convert the ObjectID to a timestamp once

[lost matrix]

But in your case it wouldnt be youtube premium. It would be a streaming app where
you use the sounds channel for music and the video channel to save random images.
You are using the objectid outside of its intended purpose.
Just use a UUID and a timestamp.

[sand spire]

Honestly I will probably not even need a UUID as it's extremely unlikely for 1 player to create 2 auctions in the same millisecond considering you need to type a command & click on confirm. And I can add a check to see if the timestamp doesn't exist already incase some hacker with a super fast script comes along

[agile anvil]

I told you. You have to copy the location

Because right now you just add x times the same location to the list

Without cloning the location, changing its values will affect the origin object

So even if you add it to the list you will just have multiple references to the same object

(that will change over time)

[sand spire]

But if I ever need a UUID which can't be the timestamp + a timestamp I will just use both as I didn't know it's not intended to use the timestamp from the objectid

[agile anvil]

See pass by value and pass by reference to better understand

[slate surge]

yeah it worked

tysm

[inner mulch]

is .startsWith reliable to use when comparing? Or what counts as "startswith"

[wide coyote]

if it starts with, it starts with

[fallen lily]

.hashcode then .equals is faster

Ofc if you’re only checking if the string contains another substring, you can’t use this methof

[inner mulch]

tahts what i was about to say, in my case i think this will not work

[shadow night]

the fuck

[inner mulch]

?

[icy beacon]

What's the error

[shadow night]

huh how

[icy beacon]

Isn't it accepting a Player as the first argument

Or even a String

[shadow night]

no

[icy beacon]

Haven't worked with it in a while

[shadow night]

the string is deprecated

[icy beacon]

Uhh

[shadow night]

it should be a player profile

[icy beacon]

Try casting last null to a String

Or whatever it should be

[remote swallow]

^^

theres mulitple ban methods so it doesnt know what to pass null as

[icy beacon]

Oh that's fair

[shadow night]

that's better

[eternal night]

it is soooo scuffed

[icy beacon]

Though they all seem to take a String

[icy beacon]

Oh

That works too ig

[remote swallow]

how did someone make it that scuffed

[eternal night]

idk, not me

lets see who to blame

[remote swallow]

doc i think

[young knoll]

yes

[eternal night]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/jira/browse/SPIGOT-7603 doing triage for you guys

do I get a role

[young knoll]

Man why does Mojang use private static final

It's static and final just let me access it :c

[shadow night]

Lol

no, use reflection.

[young knoll]

re

[inner mulch]

what is private static final even good for 😔

isnt static only for constants

[young knoll]

Making me sad

[inner mulch]

me too

[icy beacon]

local constants ig

like constants that aren't useful outsdie of a class

[remote swallow]

imagine if theres kotlin in mc codebase, we wouldnt know bc they'd prob remove metadata

[young knoll]

Welp time to do a little jank

[icy beacon]

We would know because that class would have the least legible decompilation out of all classes ig

[inner mulch]

instaneof

event.getEntity or whatever the method is called instaneof Player for exmple

if it is a player cast the entity to player

[rapid vigil]

if(e.getDamager().getType() == EntityType.ZOMBIE) {

}

or

if(e.getDamager() instanceof <ENTITY-HERE>) {

}

[ivory sleet]

i dont think so

I mean ideally but thats pure idealism I suppose

[inner mulch]

i think instanceof is faster so if you care about perfomance use instanceof

[rapid vigil]

use == for checking enums, and EntityType is an enum

[tall dragon]

and == for primitives

[rapid vigil]

^^

[upper hazel]

how check if custom flag allowed or not

wg api

i mean not like exists or not

i mean really boolean state

[ivory sleet]

== is very fast

[young knoll]

https://worldguard.enginehub.org/en/latest/developer/regions/flag-calculation/

[rapid vigil]

lmfao i was looking at this EXACT link

[inner mulch]

isnt instanceof like 2 nanoseconds

[rapid vigil]

i wonder if there is CommandSender#getType 🤔

[young knoll]

no

Just use instanceof

[ivory sleet]

Instanceof and other stuff like iirc exception handling used to be quite costly, I think the difference is negligible between instanceof and ==, I’d guess tho that at best instanceof is equally fast to ==, but in a worse scenario it may be super ultra negligibly slower

[rapid vigil]

basically == is a SSD with dram cache and instanceof is without :p

[ivory sleet]

lol

[rapid vigil]

can u show your code

[inner mulch]

because it is a living entity?

[rapid vigil]

e.getDamager returns Entity tho

[inner mulch]

yes but look at what he does LivingEntity entity = (LivingEntity) event.getDamager();

[rapid vigil]

oh yes

[shadow night]

if(event.getDamager() instanceof LivingEntity) first tho

[rapid vigil]

is Arrow a living entity

[shadow night]

No

Arrow is not a living entity

[rapid vigil]

make it check if the damager type is instanceof Arrow instead of Entity and cast to Arrow instead of LivingEntity

isnt there a ProjectileHitEvent tho

[modern plank]

hello how do i get the corresponding Sound enum instance from a minecraft key

like lets say i have minecraft:music.nether.basalt_deltas, i need the Sound.MUSIC_NETHER_BASALT_DELTAS, but there is no function like getByKey

[icy beacon]

Arrow is a Projectile so you can check for that
