[young knoll]

Interaction entity has a modifiable size

Also doesn’t block projectiles

[inner mulch]

does it exist on bedrock too?

[storm crystal]

that would be pretty okay I guess

since I could just link all the necessary information to an ID in json file

do I want to make separate class and method for creating inventory GUI as a template?

[young knoll]

Don’t think so

Silverfish block projectiles tho so

[storm crystal]

such as parameters as dimensions and what blocks are supposed to be what

[inner mulch]

i guess i need to use packets 😔

[young knoll]

Have fun making an entirely packet side entity

[inner mulch]

i alr made that, i wanted to switch to the api and it doesnt work i guess

[echo basalt]

getting weird jetty errors

[inner mulch]

so it seems like it even does that even tho the entity know each other, just the viewer (player) doesnt know 1 of them

[young knoll]

?

[inner mulch]

i set a different enttiy as the silverfish passenger

and then hide the silverfish

and same behaviour

[halcyon gate]

I want to ban someone specific from saying the word "slay"

Not a world

[inner mulch]

do you have experience with coding plugins?

or r u looking for a plugin taht does that for you?

[young knoll]

Aww man how am I gonna slay mobs then

[flint coyote]

Gotta annihilate mobs instead

[halcyon gate]

Looking for something that I can make minimal adjustments to in order for it to work

Not wanting to put a lot of effort in I just want duct tape solution

[maiden olive]

😐

[halcyon gate]

I have cmi and griefprevention on the server already but it doesn’t look like I can do what I want with those

[maiden olive]

So u want a plugin that will ban a specific player when they say a specific word

[flint coyote]

I think he wants to prevent some players from typing that word

Basically a permission based word blacklist

Unless he doesn't have a permission plugin

[hasty hamlet]

Can I turn off the Q button? Throwing out so that there is no animation

[ivory sleet]

Listen to the drop item event probably, then cancel it and remove the item

[hasty hamlet]

There remains an animation that he wants to throw away

[river oracle]

You can't remove that

It's client sided

[halcyon gate]

EXACTLY

how do i do that

[worthy yarrow]

Listen to the player chat event, iterate the message for any word from your list and cancel said event

Oh if you want a permission to bypass, just do so with a simple if p.hasPermission and dont cancel the event

[river oracle]

Might be best to use a Trie or HashSet and use string tokenization

[worthy yarrow]

Probably so, but that’s the simplest way

You might also want to consider alternative spellings etc for your blacklisted words

[halcyon gate]

its just to prevent one person from saying slay and i want it to be perpetual

[worthy yarrow]

A single person?

[halcyon gate]

yes

[worthy yarrow]

Then don’t check against a permission

[halcyon gate]

what do you mean?

[worthy yarrow]

If !p.hasPermission(xyz) return;
If event.getMessage.contains(blacklistedWord) or something like that

Then if the only person you want to block said word for, just give them that permission

So now anytime they chat and their message contains the blacklisted word, that chat event will be cancelled

[halcyon gate]

ohhh okay

[worthy yarrow]

It’s also a good note that anyone with that permission will have their message blocked given it contains the blacklisted word, ie: server operators

(Ops) for short

So it might actually be better to see if they don’t have the permission, but that means everyone whom you don’t want to be blocked will need that permission

[halcyon gate]

Is it possible to link a blacklisted word to a luckperms group and just give it to him?

[worthy yarrow]

Yeah probably, I haven't really messed with lp's api tho

[tranquil badger]

I'm trying to make a sign editor pop up on the player's screen. I was wondering if my approach is correct, or what I should change to improve my approach

• use buildtools to get a remapped jar and find the name of the packet
• use NBT API and get that packet and give it the position of the sign i need to edit.
• as I don't want an actual sign, I can instead send a block update packet (?) and make that "block" my editable sign
• get the player handler, to get the player connection (i can find out the name of this as well using the mapped jar)
• send the packet to the player (idk if I need to delete that placed block packet)
• use an event to check the sign's content when the done button is pressed.

Never done this before so, again, hoping someone can correct me if my approach is wrong.

[analog mantle]

How does Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskLater(() -> {}, 69L) work?

How does it wait time

[echo basalt]

Ticks

Basically there's the "main loop"

That loop basically says "A perfect tick lasts, at most, 50ms" (1s / 20 ticks per second)

So it starts processing the tick, gets how long it took

Let's say it took 15ms to process

And waits the 50 - 15ms

So 35

Then it ticks everything again

And waits again

The scheduler keeps track of what tick it's on and has a task queue to process

"In 5 ticks I have to run task 123 once"

Once the 5 ticks are up it just runs it

[lost matrix]

I just looked into the source for you. They set a fixed timestamp on the CraftTask and put it in a PriorityQueue.
Eg the current tick is 5000 and you scheduled it for 40 ticks in the future, then it gets a timestamp of 5040.
They then poll from the top of the priority queue until all tasks for the current tick are executed.
So if we currently have the time of 5005 and the queue contains:

• 5005
• 5005
• 5007
• 5010
• 5020
  Then it will poll the first two tasks and stop looking at the rest because the tasks inside the Queue are ordered ascending by their execution time.
  Meaning if you hit one task that is not due, then you dont need to check any more tasks, as they are all scheduled for the future.

This is another reason why you shouldnt constantly start/stop tasks but have a single task and add elements to it.
Adding/Removing tasks is O(log(n)) at best (without collisions).

[lilac dagger]

so i've been doing this optimally a long time ago?

but a thing still has me questioning

if you poll a repeating task, don't you have to reschedule it?

putting it back to log n?

[lost matrix]

Unless it is scheduled every tick, in which case you can just put it on top of the queue

But true, rescheduling takes O(log(n)) at best again

[lilac dagger]

oh mine is every tick

[lost matrix]

Hm. Shouldnt we have access to this? Looks to me like a decent alternative to System.currentTimeMillis() if we can just measure a time
in terms of ticks.

[lilac dagger]

wait, so how many ticks till the server dies?

unless it just wraps around

[lost matrix]

It counts up every tick. This is essentially how long the server has been running in ticks.

[lilac dagger]

for some reason int seemed much smaller in my mind

it'll take a long time to wrap around

[tired star]

So I have this problem: I'm doing a pvp plugin that has healing based on damage done to a killed player. My Problem is that I have this custom ability that casts lightning to a player. I need to somehow get the caster's UUID to my plugin's main to add it to calculations. I cant seem to get out but only the target's UUID and the CraftLightningStrike's UUID. Any ideas?

[lost matrix]

LightningStrike is an entity. You can just add the casters UUID in his PersistentDataContainer.

*And then get it back when the lightning damages someone

Alternatively you can also just use a Map<UUID, UUID> to map lightning IDs to their caster IDs

[lilac dagger]

i see this

[lost matrix]

setCausingPlayer might mess with some game logic

But also an option

[lilac dagger]

i don't see how a lightning strike is an entity

it should be instant

[smoky anchor]

well.. you want to see it for a bit, no ?

[lilac dagger]

or did they change how it works?

but it seems to me like a client thing

[smoky anchor]

It has always been an entity as far as I know

It interacts with the world tho
changes entities into different entities

[tired star]

I think my problem is accessing the data between main class and the LightningStrikeAbility class :D I always mess up the basic things after coding too much in a row

[lilac dagger]

but so is an explosion

[amber socket]

so setting a display entity, it seems to rotate around the point from where its original point is instead of the y-offset point. is there a way to make it rotate around its y-offset point instead of its original point

[lilac dagger]

this is why it's weird to me

you just create an explosion is bukkit

[smoky anchor]

But if not entity, then particle ?

[lilac dagger]

it's not like it matters, i just find it weird that's all

[fallen lily]

The same way primed tnt and area effect clouds are entities

They live in the world, for a certain amount of time

It only makes sense to make them an entity

[grave laurel]

Hey, I am making a plugin where you can set your own prefix, but it doesn't show in the Tablist nor the NameTag nor when you type sth in the chat.
https://hastebin.skyra.pw/bexabedelu.csharp

[lilac dagger]

you'll have to use Team from scoreboard

[grave laurel]

What do you mean by that?

As my scoreboard I have private static Scoreboard scoreboard = Bukkit.getScoreboardManager().getNewScoreboard();

[lilac dagger]

scoreboard createNewTeam

Team#setprefix

[grave laurel]

do you mean scoreboard.createNewTeam()?

[lilac dagger]

yes

[grave laurel]

that doesn't seem to exist...

[lilac dagger]

it's register

[grave laurel]

well that I had, but with no success

https://hastebin.skyra.pw/bexabedelu.csharp

team = scoreboard.registerNewTeam("team");

[lilac dagger]

use player setscoreboard scoreboard

[nova quail]

Hello! I want to create a plugin that, on command, starts dropping yellow concrete blocks every 10 ticks. I have made dropitemnaturally, and I need to drop blocks exactly from the player's legs, but they drop somewhere left from the player.
final Item item = player.getWorld().dropItemNaturally(player.getLocation(), new ItemStack(Material.YELLOW_CONCRETE));
item.setVelocity(player.getLocation().getDirection());
item.setGravity(true);
item.setPickupDelay(1000);

[grave laurel]

It still didn't work
https://hastebin.skyra.pw/hosixejodi.csharp

[lilac dagger]

this should work

maybe finalprefix is wrong?

[grave laurel]

Well it is something like this: &6[&3Hey&6]

[lost matrix]

item.setVelocity(player.getLocation().getDirection());

->

item.setVelocity(player.getEyeLocation().getDirection());

[grave laurel]

And the characters in the brackets are custom

[lilac dagger]

i think it's another plugin conflicting with your scoreboard

maybe a tab plugin?

[grave laurel]

Yeah I have made another plugin to manage the Tablist

[lilac dagger]

disable it for a bit

restart the server

[grave laurel]

alright, I'll try that!

[native gale]

If I want to contribute to Spigot, which of these do I fork?

[lost matrix]

Depends.

API visible methods are added into Bukkit
Implementations of those methods are added into CraftBukkit
Changes to the server implementation are added into Spigot

[fallen lily]

Download buildtools cli to setup the workflow

And then you can easily make changes from there

[fallen lily]

Thats if it still works the way it did a few years ago

I see now it just gives you a jar with the gui version

:/

[lost matrix]

Usually for PRs your would fork Bukkit and CraftBukkit and reference the correlating changes in each other.

I shouldnt dox myself...

[outer tendon]

Hey @lost matrix, you recommended using Timestamps for timing functionality. Were you referring to java.sql.Timestamp or something else?

[lost matrix]

Just a long ususally

[outer tendon]

Ah okay

Thank you

[native gale]

I forked the Spigot repository but when I run ./applyPatches.sh it is not happy because this script refers to something outside of this directory

So I assumed it is not a root project

[fallen lily]

did you run it in git bash

[native gale]

Sure?

[lost matrix]

Run BuildTools for the latest version. This makes sure you have everythin needed in your local maven repo.

[native gale]

It tries to do something in ../Bukkit which doesnt exist in my working enviroment

[fallen lily]

What is the actual error message you get

Oh

[lost matrix]

Ah you need to reference some files

[fallen lily]

You didnt reccursively clone the submodules

[lost matrix]

One moment

[fallen lily]

Lol

[native gale]

Or

[fallen lily]

Wait nvm why is it one level lower

[native gale]

[fallen lily]

It used to be all in the same directory…

[native gale]

Does it want my to fork all of these repos?

[fallen lily]

Spigot progressively becoming more aids to contribute to speedrun

[native gale]

I mean, I've considered that

But

How do I push it to my fork and then do PR?

If I understand correctly, the cloned repo which BuildTools creates is connected to the main repo

aka https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/scm/spigot/*.git

[sullen marlin]

Yeah just add/update remote

[native gale]

Oh, like that?

Hm, alright

[valid basin]

Non flickering darkness effect? Does someone know if it's possible?

[smoky anchor]

Either tell the user to change an Accessibility setting, or force a RP that edits a shader.
Those are the two things that come to my mind

[grave laurel]

How do I change the Name-Tag of a player?

Like the name above the skin?

[native gale]

I may be wrong, but I think you need to modify protocol packages for that

[valid basin]

So it's impossible with packets?

I'm trying to make a horror game. It pisses me off this game isn't giving dev much space to work with

For example roblox does

[native gale]

Oh, no

[grave laurel]

ok.. But how would I do that? do you have like a tutorial or so?

[native gale]

No need for packages

Just use scoreboard api

You can change the dislpay name

[grave laurel]

oh, so just use the scoreboard api and with that, modify the name tag?

[smoky anchor]

don't see how packets could help in any way
You could try to see if the flickering is somehow tied to the remaining time, then just set the effect time to a specific value every tick
Would be wonky tho
And again, you can probably use RP to change it, this game is customizable as fuck.
And it's only getting better week by week

[native gale]

Okay, so now I just fork these repos in the stash and change these local repos remotes to my

Hm, okay, easier than I though, but I cannot imagine how people figure that out on their own

[ivory sleet]

Yea its a bit non trivial, i think there is a wiki page on it tho ^^

[hybrid turret]

If I use an advanced loop, can I start at a different index instead of 0?

Basically: i want to paginate my onlinePlayersGUI.
The first page is supposed to have player 0-35, the second 36-71 and so on. I could somehow do it with a simple loop but Idk how I'll get from Collection<? extends Player to a Player[]-Array

[drowsy helm]

Not that hard to convert it

[hybrid turret]

I know, but I tried and failed

[drowsy helm]

Cast to list and just get by index

[hybrid turret]

Player[] players = onlinePlayers.toArray(new Player[onlinePlayers.size()]);

Would that be a way as well?

[drowsy helm]

Give it a try it might complain about casting

So what exactly are you having troublr with pagination?

Should be pretty straight forward

[hybrid turret]

It contains about Call to 'toArray()' with pre-sized array argument 'new Player[onlinePlayers.size()]'

complains*

LOL

[hybrid turret]

Well, the second page should not have player 0-35 again but player 36-71

and for looping through the online players I need to change the starting index somehow

[drowsy helm]

Index = n * 35 + i

N is page number, starting from 0

i is offset

[hybrid turret]

yeah, the problem is/was getting an index

i had an advanced loop

[drowsy helm]

Tf is an advanced loop lol

[hybrid turret]

for (Player onlinePlayer : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()) {}

[drowsy helm]

A foreach loop?

[hybrid turret]

yeah call it want you want, lol

[drowsy helm]

You can easily convert that to use index

[hybrid turret]

nvm not advanced. it's called enhanced for loop

[hybrid turret]

that's what i'm trying to do with the List<> now

[peak depot]

List<Player> players = new ArrayList<>();
for (Player onlinePlayer : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()) {
players.add(onlinePlayer);
} isnt that basicly what youre looking for?

[drowsy helm]

List<player> blah blah blah
for(int i = n * 35; i < (n+1)*35; i ++)

[hybrid turret]

yeah that's essentially what i did now

List<? extends Player> onlinePlayers = Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().stream().toList();

[nova quail]

Hello! I have created a plugin that on command /spit, make from player's head llama spit but It damage other players. How can I cancel damage on spit?

[hybrid turret]

EntityDamageEvent iirc

and some ifs

[drowsy helm]

Youll have to listen to EntityDamage event and cancel it if the damage source is a spit projectile

[hybrid turret]

*and comes from a player

otherwise llamas won't work as intended anymore

[nova quail]

thanks

[glass breach]

Hey fellas! How do you make it so that you can Right click globally. I've used PIE up until this point, but that doesnt work when in close proximity to entities. Could anyone help me pls?

[drowsy helm]

Wdym by globally?

[glass breach]

Welp, when rightclicking air, blocks and/or entities

basically merging PIE and PIEE into one

[drowsy helm]

PlayerInteractEvent doesnt fire close to entities?

It should

[hybrid turret]

PlayerInteractEvent is the parent event, yes.

tbh i also needed some time until i got that

[glass breach]

So this would fire?

public void onPlayerInteractEvent(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
        if(event.getAction() == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_AIR || event.getAction() == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK) {

[drowsy helm]

It should, yeah

[glass breach]

ItemsAdder entities

that was the issue

thanks! now gotta figure out how will that work

[drowsy helm]

Idk exactly how itemsadder works but pretry sure it’s clientside entities, if thats the case youll need a packet listener

[nova quail]

if(e.getCause() == EntityDamageEvent.DamageCause.PROJECTILE) how can i set projectile llama spit here?

[hybrid turret]

I took a quick look and it seems that the ProjectileHitEvent is the correct event

[young knoll]

You can use either

[trail estuary]

anyone knows a plugin for commpressed items
1.20

[smoky anchor]

-> #help-server

[trail estuary]

sry

[hybrid turret]

okay tbh i have no idea rn how you check exactly for the llama spit, i can't find it, lol

[nova quail]

public void OnHurt(ProjectileHitEvent e) {
if (e.getEntity()instanceof LlamaSpit) {
LivingEntity entity = (LivingEntity)e.getHitEntity();
if (e.getEntity().getShooter() instanceof Player) {
I have made something like this but how can i cancel damage?

[young knoll]

instanceof LlamaSpit

Use the damage event to cancel damage

[sleek estuary]

Can anyone tell me if I need to execute this line? I believe that bukkit saves all schedulers and I believe that I need to execute this line so that the list has fewer objects and frees up memory

[hybrid turret]

mhhhhhhh paragraph symbols (idk sadly, sorry)

[zealous osprey]

Heyo, I would love some feedback for this:

I want to implement a custom weapons system using an entity component system to have a versatile and customisable system.
It would have two parts:
Abilities/Data: This is the data it will display when a component is applied. Something like lore or a display name.

Effect: The actual effect that will be triggered via an event.

Following issue(s) arise:
How do I handle events?
Do I have a listener in every effect which checks for events?
Do I have an external system that parses events to effects (sounds annoying)?
Other options?

[blazing ocean]

will probably give you a NPE

[young knoll]

Or some other exception about it already being canceled

[blazing ocean]

^^

[late sonnet]

the most of methods in a task throw a exception if is not started

[sleek estuary]

NPE?

[hybrid turret]

NullPointerException

[blazing ocean]

nullpointerexception

ah

[sleek estuary]

why?

task != null

[blazing ocean]

well, the task id might be come null once it's cancelled

i'm not sure since i don't have a copy of the bukkit src atm

[sleek estuary]

task id is integer

integer not can be null

[blazing ocean]

can still be null

[sleek estuary]

wtf?

[outer tendon]

I want to schedule some tasks. Is it a better idea to use the Bukkit scheduler or a java.util.Timer? Im guessing that Bukkit is based off of ticks rather than actual time, so I think using a Timer is probably a better bet. Is that right?

[sleek estuary]

is a int

[blazing ocean]

bukkit

[sleek estuary]

not Integer

a int not can be null bro

[icy beacon]

Depends on what you wanna do but mostly bukkit

[outer tendon]

Alright. Im scheduling tasks like a countdown to the start of a game

Would you mind elaborating as to why?

[blazing ocean]

use bukkit then

[icy beacon]

You probably want to use bukkit then

[outer tendon]

oh you were responding to me XD

i like your profile picture lol

[sleek estuary]

Can anyone tell me if I need to execute this line? I believe that bukkit saves all schedulers and I believe that I need to execute this line so that the list has fewer objects and frees up memory

[blazing ocean]

we literally told you

you don't need to as it will throw an exception

[hybrid turret]

LOL

[sleek estuary]

?»????

[blazing ocean]

probably throw an exception*

[sleek estuary]

you know java bro?

int not can be null

[blazing ocean]

i do, in fact, know java

[late sonnet]

resume.. you already cancel the task not need call again that... is like call cancel two times.

[icy beacon]

If the server lags and performs for example at 9 tps, but your task is running with java timer and is bosically at 20 tps, it's going to outrun the server. Not the best example i could provide but basically for smoother gameplay you want to sync your plugin with server time quote unquote

[blazing ocean]

.

[icy beacon]

^

[outer tendon]

Ah okay

Thank you

[echo basalt]

what the fuck is this convo

[outer tendon]

I appreciate the response :D.

[echo basalt]

Don't use java timers in the context of bukkit

[sleek estuary]

so how gettaskid will returns null if is a integer?

[icy beacon]

Two different convos, both about scheduling

[echo basalt]

You can use executor services if you're doing your own thing outside

[blazing ocean]

...

[echo basalt]

You cancel the task twice

[blazing ocean]

i literally said it might be a possibility

i don't have the implementation in front of me atm

[outer tendon]

Im making a Timer class that will begin scheduling checks upon creation so I can make one for anything tha tneeds to schedule, like a Game object

[echo basalt]

"Frees up memory" is not the perfect term but it's still good practice to cancel stale tasks in order to not cause weird exponential issues

[outer tendon]

Is that a good idea?

[echo basalt]

So you're making your own scheduler

[outer tendon]

uh

[sleek estuary]

but task.cancel doesn't fully free up the memory, but damn it

[outer tendon]

I suppose

but

[echo basalt]

Or is it just tracking scheduled tasks so you can cancel them all at once?

[sleek estuary]

but task.cancel doesn't fully free up the memory, but damn it

[echo basalt]

Do you even know what you're talking about?

[blazing ocean]

no need to say the same thing twice

[echo basalt]

task.cancel and Scheduler#cancelTask do the same thing

[blazing ocean]

which is actually wrong lol

[sleek estuary]

yes

[outer tendon]

You know what? I just realized I might not need to.

I'm scheduling multiple tasks like countdowns for starting games.

[sleek estuary]

no no

[echo basalt]

https://github.com/IllusionTheDev/Minigame-Demo/tree/master/src/main/java/me/illusion/minigamedemo/game/task

[blazing ocean]

yes

[late sonnet]

but the two methods are the same...
the task.cancel already call the Bukkit.getScheduler().cancelTask its like i said yyou call the cancel two times

[outer tendon]

Oh thank you

[sleek estuary]

I didn't see that part, forget it

[outer tendon]

Thisll take a bit for me to wrap my head around

[echo basalt]

[sleek estuary]

yes, im sorry

thx

[late sonnet]

[echo basalt]

The repo's basically a whole minigame engine

[blazing ocean]

no need to get rude though

[echo basalt]

Figured it might help your case

[outer tendon]

I see

Thank you

Im slowly building up my understanding of different topics as I go along building this

The first time I built it, it was a mess

So would you say you made your own scheduler?

[echo basalt]

Not really, no

[outer tendon]

Oh

[echo basalt]

The GameTask interface just wraps "a task"

[outer tendon]

oh right

[echo basalt]

Then I have a bunch of impls that delegate to the bukkit scheduler

[blazing ocean]

i'm guessing they're just extending a bukkittask/bukkitrunnable

[echo basalt]

I do keep references of every task that's ever been scheduled

So that when the game / phase disposes so do the tasks

[young knoll]

You could theoretically just have a single async and sync task running all the time that you subscribe/unsubscribe stuff to

[outer tendon]

It was recommended to me to build a priority queue to schedule tasks, but Im realizing I dont need to do that

[echo basalt]

sounds like something smile would say

[outer tendon]

It is what he said

I dont think that was necessary at all

I guess I should look more into how the Bukkit Scheduler works first

[echo basalt]

voodoo

[outer tendon]

I think that's similar to what 7 had suggested.

at least based on how I understood it

[outer tendon]

XD Now I mean how to use it and what not

[echo basalt]

meanwhile I made a quest system

[nova quail]

Can't understand what's wrong here. I have created a plugin that on command /spit, make from player's head llama spit but it damage other people. And I need to cancel damage.

if (e.getEntity()instanceof LlamaSpit) {
if (e.getEntity().getShooter() instanceof Player) {
LivingEntity entity = (LivingEntity)e.getHitEntity();
entity.damage(0.0D);

[echo basalt]

You can just cancel the event

nah, the next mcci™️

[outer tendon]

low motivation

Illusion, let me shadow you

[young knoll]

Mcci isn’t even that popular

It has like 300 players

[blazing ocean]

coming to a minecraft in your area, soonTM

[outer tendon]

ive never even heard of mcci

[blazing ocean]

lol

[blazing ocean]

sadly

[echo basalt]

Let's see there are only 2 things I need to figure out in order to make a really good network

[young knoll]

Yeah it does look quite nice

[echo basalt]

One of them is the whole vibe and identity of the server

[young knoll]

But idk it just isn’t hitting the mark I guess

[echo basalt]

The other thing is the live deployment infra

[outer tendon]

I have a great name for a mini-game server

[echo basalt]

I already have a name for it too

[outer tendon]

and youll never get it from me

[drowsy helm]

Two is copying hypixel and everything they do

[echo basalt]

Just need the color scheme, whole vibe of it

Pacing and stuff

[outer tendon]

Illusion, may I shadow you?

[echo basalt]

Two is the auto instancing stuff

[outer tendon]

you seem like a good dev

[echo basalt]

uh

[outer tendon]

ez

[blazing ocean]

my vibe is kinda like

[echo basalt]

tf is that about

[outer tendon]

i can do it in my sleep

[blazing ocean]

resource pack magic fuckery

[outer tendon]

what do you mean?

[blazing ocean]

:)

[river oracle]

You can shadow me I'm basically illusion if he had 10 less years of experience and American

[outer tendon]

bro you know what is impressive?

WynnCraft

[blazing ocean]

yeah

[drowsy helm]

Pretty sure hypixel still manually provisions servers

[outer tendon]

lol

[echo basalt]

I only have like 8 years of spigot :(

[hybrid turret]

tf is shadowing

[echo basalt]

nah they have 1k dedis

[drowsy helm]

They mentioned it in a dev blog a while ago

[river oracle]

Mb 4 less gears of experience

[young knoll]

They manually provision new machines

[echo basalt]

like 13 years of coding exp :)

[young knoll]

But not the actual server instances

[outer tendon]

You seem like an experienced and active dev. I figured I could learn some stuff from you

[echo basalt]

They manually provision new machines with the help of some scripts

[outer tendon]

Ironically, I started in Java, but I have very little experience with it

[echo basalt]

but the instances themselves yeet into existence automagically

[drowsy helm]

Gotcha

[echo basalt]

And I've got like 4 different versions of that

But it's complex as it involves minecraft plugins + 2 services

[young knoll]

And yeah coming up with a general vibe for a server is hard

[echo basalt]

At least

[outer tendon]

yeah fr

[echo basalt]

I have a name for it, Trying to think of a color scheme

[drowsy helm]

Who needs auto provisioning when you have cheap child labour in a third world country

[river oracle]

Make it militaristic style

[echo basalt]

But I'm also thinking of the style

[young knoll]

Hypixel’s vibe was basically just

“Hypixel”

[echo basalt]

I know I want something night related

But is it a city night or just a fantasy night

[drowsy helm]

Minigame network?

[echo basalt]

ye

[young knoll]

It worked for them because they already had an established name

[outer tendon]

use a color scheme picker

https://coolors.co/palettes/trending

[echo basalt]

And what games will I have

[echo basalt]

I've been pressing space for the past 15 mins

[outer tendon]

bro

[young knoll]

Pp wars

[outer tendon]

please bring back MicroBattles

[outer tendon]

lol

alright

back to scheduling

[young knoll]

I like the space/galaxy vibe

But idk

[echo basalt]

I'm not going full cosmic

[outer tendon]

Cosmic PvP XD

[echo basalt]

But I do feel like my lobby would be in the end dimension

[outer tendon]

Id love to help you brainstorm, but Id rather use my ideas myself XD

[young knoll]

Hey cosmic is dead so it's fine

lul

[outer tendon]

oh lol

I did like the idea behind Cosmic

their lobby was fun

low gravity

[river oracle]

Guys this is the signal of UART transfer

[hybrid turret]

oh oh my god, i thought cosmic was a dev or sum

omg

wtf

[outer tendon]

lol

[echo basalt]

There is a dev named cosmic

[hybrid turret]

and he fucking died?

[blazing ocean]

i feel like there's not enough servers with resource pack magic fuckery
there's like

• mcci
• mcbrawls
• cubecraft
• cytooxien
  but that's about it

[outer tendon]

no

[river oracle]

Idk who knows

[outer tendon]

we were talking about the server

[river oracle]

Maybe ask him

[echo basalt]

those are the popular ones

[outer tendon]

add Wynn Craft. They are amazing at it

[drowsy helm]

Origin realms, wynn

[blazing ocean]

true

[echo basalt]

I've worked for servers doing way more resourcepack fuckery than you can think of

[outer tendon]

WynnCraft is probably the most impressive server Ive been on

[drowsy helm]

Theres a few, they are just super hard to implement well with a small team

[outer tendon]

Ik another programmer called Illusion

[echo basalt]

he sucks

[drowsy helm]

Origin Realms is impressive, but boring

[outer tendon]

lol

nah

[blazing ocean]

brawls is made by a friend of mine alone :p

[outer tendon]

he's pretty good

[rapid vigil]

out of curiosity Y2K is your pfp solo leveling?

[drowsy helm]

definitely the innovators or resource pack stuff

[river oracle]

Yeah

[rapid vigil]

damn thanks for the spoiler

[echo basalt]

wasn't that mineclub?

[river oracle]

It's not a spoiler it's fan art :P

[rapid vigil]

its not taken from the manhwa?

[drowsy helm]

Never heard of it

[blazing ocean]

never heard of it

[drowsy helm]

Jinx

[blazing ocean]

pretty small tbf

[drowsy helm]

I dont think so?

[river oracle]

No

[drowsy helm]

They were called minecraft realms before mojang sent a cease and desist

[blazing ocean]

they only have two games atm soo

[drowsy helm]

Theres also that rabbit server

I forget the name

[rapid vigil]

maybe youre saying that so i dont get spoiled

[young knoll]

They were not

They were called realms: origins

[drowsy helm]

Ah

My memory is patchy

Anyways, incredible server

[river oracle]

I mean the image itself spoils nothing so that's not really the intention.

[drowsy helm]

Would be cool if they went for a more rpg approach

[outer tendon]

So if I make a BukkitRunnable class that acts as a countdown timer, would it make sense to decrement the time left every time it's ran?

[rapid vigil]

lol true its not as if i know what arc it is

[river oracle]

Read the manhwa the art is crazy

[rapid vigil]

its true that i have no patience to wait 3 years for the full episodes to come out but i still want to see the anime without knowing whats gonna happen plus i dont really read manhwas or mangas so i might just end up ruining the fun of the upcoming seasons

[river oracle]

Ahhh, season 2 is announced already luckily

2024 release

[rapid vigil]

yeah i thought we'd have to wait 1-2 years lol

[outer tendon]

bruh

[rapid vigil]

u read the manhwa didnt u

[outer tendon]

May I politely ask that you guys take this to general?

[river oracle]

Nah no one's asking for help atm

If you got a question post it

[river oracle]

Yeah I read a lot of everything I enjoy reading

[outer tendon]

I did

It disappeared XD

Ill post it again

So if I make a BukkitRunnable class that acts as a countdown timer, would it make sense to decrement the time left every time it's ran?

[river oracle]

Then link it

[river oracle]

Yes

Otherwise you can't track your timer

[outer tendon]

Okay, thank you

Right

[rapid vigil]

im hardly stopping myself from seeing whats gonna happen next in the manhwa ngl

[river oracle]

I'm reading konosba rn too

My favorite anime tbh

[rapid vigil]

oh i havent heard of it before

[river oracle]

Tho I'll say that the light novels def aren't as funny and engaging as a manga

[river oracle]

It's a show that basically just mocks isakai

[rapid vigil]

did u read mashle

[river oracle]

Yes

[rapid vigil]

damn u know whats gonna happen in all the animes im waiting for lol

[river oracle]

I've watched a bit of anime

Ironically I've only ever read Mashle, and Solo Leveling

Still reading konosuba

[rapid vigil]

you should probably watch season 2 of mashle and solo leveling theyre good

[river oracle]

I always do

I love to see stuff animated plus anime changes thinfs

[rapid vigil]

ah yes manga readers always talk about the anime changes lol

the Igris fight ended too quick and didnt end in such a good way but i heard it was made better in the manhwa

so i could read the parts i already watched

[eternal oxide]

I liked Konosuba, but not the spin offs

[river oracle]

Agreed

[river oracle]

Igris battle is just him getting tossed for a long time xD

A well drawn beating

[rapid vigil]

in the manhwa?

[river oracle]

Yeah

[rapid vigil]

how did it end then

did it end well

[river oracle]

Same way pretty much

[rapid vigil]

if u watched the episode youd see that even the mc himself knows that he won non-sensely lmao

[river oracle]

Yeah season 2 is where it gets good

Get excited

[rapid vigil]

im getting hyped up for it all the time, cant believe i gotta wait like 7 months FOR the first episode and then weekly episodes

[river oracle]

After episode 7 I read the entire manwha in 2 days

[eternal oxide]

Yeah I'm moving more to reading the Manga than watching Anime now.

takes too long for new episodes

[rapid vigil]

AHAHAHAHAHAHA thats what A LOT of people did. You'd need like 3+ years to see what you saw in 2 days otherwise

[river oracle]

True I always buy my manga tho too I'd say it's worth ti support the smaller creators especially

[eternal oxide]

Getting it translated and for sale is not easy for most

[rapid vigil]

i should try reading some manga to see if i like it so that i can do that too cuz waiting for the episodes is annoying

[river oracle]

Ik is the sad part there are some obscure LN I'm on the look for

[peak jetty]

how do i implement protocollib in my plugin?

[eternal oxide]

it tells you on its wiki/github

[arctic pelican]

can anyone help me im having map issues, im trying to create a map but its generated on a void map and i want it on a standard vanilla infinite terrain how can i do that
ive been strugging for 2 days trying to figure that o ut

[nova quail]

I have made message sender for player when he use /spit which makes him to spit like llama. And after he spit at other player plugin sends message of player's nickname in which he spat. How can I do the same for second player. "The player: nickname spat at you"

             if (e.getEntity().getShooter() instanceof Player) {
                    Player shooter = (Player) e.getEntity().getShooter();
                    String shootername = shooter.getName();
                    entity.sendMessage("Player " + shootername);

[drowsy helm]

What exactly are you trying to do

[peak jetty]

i did it but i get this error

[drowsy helm]

Youve just given an xy problem

[arctic pelican]

so i have this map on world painter but itds on a void background essentally and i want it to be infinite generated terrain but idk how to do it

so like i have my custome area but the rest i want natural generation

[rapid vigil]

?codeblock

[undone axle]

You can use the discord code block format to display code or just text in a more pleasing way:
```java
public class MyPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
@Override
public void onEnable() {

}

}```
Becomes:

public class MyPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {

    }
}```

[drowsy helm]

ask on #help-server this channel is for coding.
Either way it’s not really spigot related does worldpainter have a discord

[outer tendon]

If I wanted to run a callback when the timer is ran out, what would be the best way to go about this?

[drowsy helm]

Pass a lambda function as a parameter

[arctic pelican]

ok

[peak jetty]

how do i do this:

To use this library, first add ProtocolLib.jar to your Java build path

[outer tendon]

Alright, thank you

[drowsy helm]

Are you using maven or gradle?

[undone axle]

You can use the discord code block format to display code or just text in a more pleasing way:
```java
public class MyPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
@Override
public void onEnable() {

}

}```
Becomes:

public class MyPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {

    }
}```

[peak jetty]

maven

[modern plank]

in the set equipment packet, where would i set the saddle/armor for a horse? the EntityEquipment bukkit class does not cover these

[drowsy helm]

Add that to ur pom

[nova quail]

public class SpitHitEvent implements Listener {
    @EventHandler
    public void onProjectileHit(ProjectileHitEvent e) {
        if (e.getEntity()instanceof LlamaSpit) {
                LivingEntity entity = (LivingEntity)e.getHitEntity();
                if (entity != null) {
                    if (e.getEntity().getShooter() instanceof Player) {
                        Player shooter = (Player) e.getEntity().getShooter();
                        String shootername = shooter.getName();
                        entity.sendMessage("Player " + shootername);
                } else {
                        e.setCancelled(true);
                    }
            }
        }
    }
}

[outer tendon]

you forgot "java"

[rapid vigil]

You realize you have the shooter variable don't you, just send them the message

[peak jetty]

thats what i did but it still says Cannot resolve symbol 'comphenix'

[modern plank]

try reloading maven

[peak jetty]

how?

[nova quail]

I need to send the same message but for another player that he got spat from player.

[nova quail]

and his nickname

[peak jetty]

ok that worked thanks

[drowsy helm]

Invalidate cache then reload

[rapid vigil]

can you elaborate more i got a little confused

[modern plank]

does anyone know this?

[drowsy helm]

I reckon it reuses one of the existing slots for horse

Just a shot in the dark though

[modern plank]

i dont care to test it

i just need to know

it came with this note

so it might contain more entries than the usual

[nova quail]

I have created plugin with command /spit. When player uses /spit the llama spit comes from his head, so he spits like llama. And when he spat on player in chat writes. "You spat on and player's nickname". And I need to do the same but for another player so: "You got spat by player's nickname".

[drowsy helm]

Testing is ur only option rn

[modern plank]

aint nah way

[drowsy helm]

You have both the variables, just flip them

[rapid vigil]

Yeah you have the entity variable for the guy who got shot, and shooter for the guy that shot it, just send each one a message

[peak jetty]

how do i create a fake player that shows up in tab and everything using protocollib?

[drowsy helm]

You have to make a dummy GameProfile

Then just send the player join packet with the profile

[hybrid turret]

?nms

[undone axle]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/nms-use-mojang-mappings-for-your-spigot-plugins/

[drowsy helm]

Plenty of tab plugins you can reverse engineer

[hybrid turret]

wait wrong command

i want the tutorial for nms again lmao

nvm found it

[muted dirge]

cool

[peak jetty]

how do i do this?

[hybrid turret]

oh right, this part was never finished

(fake players)

[muted dirge]

https://github.com/Mehran1022mm/Potty-Snake

is this code good enough to be used?

[nova quail]

I need to parse the player's nickname

who spat on another

[rapid vigil]

Nickname? you mean Player.getName?

[nova quail]

yeah

[rapid vigil]

yeah you already have the shootername stored in a variable?

[nova quail]

something like this

                    if (e.getHitEntity() instanceof Player) {
                        Player shooted = (Player) e.getHitEntity();
                        String shootedname = shooted.getName();
                        entity.sendMessage("1" + shootedname);

[peak jetty]

should i use a WrappedGameProfile with protocolib?

[nova quail]

And I need also the player who spit on another nickname

[rapid vigil]

Yeah that works, although you should follow naming conventions

?conventions

[undone axle]

https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/codeconventions-namingconventions.html

[rapid vigil]

yeah then just call getName on the shooter?

[muted dirge]

which already did

String shootedname = shooted.getName();

??

[rapid vigil]

thats the shooted not shooter

[nova quail]

but it don't work for some way

[muted dirge]

oh

[rapid vigil]

eh?

[muted dirge]

get it from the command handler

[rapid vigil]

Here try this

public class SpitHitEvent implements Listener {

    @EventHandler
    public void onProjectileHit(ProjectileHitEvent e) {
        if (e.getEntityType() != EntityType.LLAMA_SPIT) return;

        ProjectileSource shooter = e.getEntity().getShooter();

        if (shooter instanceof Player playerShooter) {

            Entity hitEntity = e.getHitEntity();

            if (hitEntity == null) return;
            if (hitEntity.getType() != EntityType.PLAYER) return;

            Player hitPlayer = (Player) hitEntity;

            hitPlayer.sendMessage("You got hit by " + playerShooter.getName());
            playerShooter.sendMessage("You hit " + hitPlayer.getName());
        }
    }
}```

[modern plank]

update on this: the saddle is its own field and armor is just equipped on the chest. no other equipment slots exist besides the ones bukkit provide

[hybrid turret]

do i understand it correctly that it is mandatory to use protocollib when trying to spawn npcs?

[worldly ingot]

Bukkit definitely covers this at least on the server side Unless you're doing this with a packet for a reason
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/HorseInventory.html#setArmor(org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack)
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/AbstractHorseInventory.html#setSaddle(org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack)

Could have looked at implementation of those to find the slots though

[civic sluice]

Not really it is just easier for most of the users. I prefer a custom way,

[worldly ingot]

Would have revealed slots 0 for the saddle and 1 for the armour

[nova quail]

java: pattern matching in instanceof is not supported in -source 8
(use -source 16 or higher to enable pattern matching in instanceof)
How can I set source 16? Can't find it.

[civic sluice]

Maven or Gradle?

[rapid vigil]

lol i assumed you were using a modern java version, then use this

    @EventHandler
    public void onProjectileHit(ProjectileHitEvent e) {
        if (e.getEntityType() != EntityType.LLAMA_SPIT) return;

        ProjectileSource shooter = e.getEntity().getShooter();

        if (shooter instanceof Player) {

            Entity hitEntity = e.getHitEntity();

            if (hitEntity == null) return;
            if (hitEntity.getType() != EntityType.PLAYER) return;

            Player hitPlayer = (Player) hitEntity;
            Player playerShooter = (Player) shooter;

            hitPlayer.sendMessage("You got hit by " + playerShooter.getName());
            playerShooter.sendMessage("You hit " + hitPlayer.getName());
        }
    }```

[worldly ingot]

If you're using anything prior to Minecraft 1.17, you probably shouldn't. If after the fact, depends on your build system

[peak jetty]

how do i make a fake player using protocollib?

[nova quail]

Thanks, now all works.

[peak jetty]

does this create a fakeplayer which I can join to my server? java WrappedGameProfile gameProfile = new WrappedGameProfile("621b1c38-75bf-47e2-97e5-04362248e9bb", "PlutoCraftNet");

[river oracle]

Spigot updates to java 21 minimum when???? kek

[worldly ingot]

CraftBukkit will. Bukkit probably will never need to for any reason because the features just aren't at all necessary

These are the only features of note added between J17 - J21

• UTF-8 by default
• Code snippets in Javadocs ({@snippet}), actually handy but we can just generate Javadocs with a J21 JDK
• Sequenced Collection interfaces
• Record pattern matching (if (someRecord instanceof Point(int x, int y)))
• switch pattern matching (case Integer i ->)

[civic sluice]

Downstream will with 1.20.5

[worldly ingot]

Bukkit will likely use none of those

[river oracle]

Okay??? I didn't ask about downstream

:P

[river oracle]

Yet can't wait to use all of these in the ultimate bukkit pr of the century

[worldly ingot]

You would have to try really hard to use these features in Bukkit given its comprised almost exclusively of interfaces

[civic sluice]

Code cleanup could be done using Java 21. Old features can be improved.

[worldly ingot]

It's often not at all worth it

[river oracle]

For now 😈

[worldly ingot]

And prone to breaking things

Remember the commit we did last year replacing all instances of Validate and if (x == null) with Preconditions which is now CraftBukkit's standard? And the like 10 commits that came after it having to fix all the inconsistencies and bugs?

[river oracle]

The only thing really worth it is string templating which is a God send

[eager yacht]

hey guys, i fall in the problem is when i use itemmeta#addAttributeModifiers, the default of minecraft attribute got disapear like Attack Speed and Attack Damage, and when i enchant sharpness, it doesn't work can someone tell me how to set custom Attack Attribute without remove the minecraft default one?

[worldly ingot]

String templates are still in preview

You can't use them

[river oracle]

Awhh wtf

I thought they were in 21

[worldly ingot]

Like I said. These are the only features of note

[river oracle]

Lameeee

[worldly ingot]

They are in 21, they're just behind the preview flag lol

[native gale]

Huee my first PR to Spigot

[civic sluice]

My P-Fork uses Java 21 features already. Otherwise code would be little less readable. 😄

[eager yacht]

soneone help plsz

[river oracle]

CabernetMC will exclusively use Java 6

[civic sluice]

And running on running on Debian 3 ?

[river oracle]

No that's way too new

I'll be building from an old Linux kernel and create my own from selected old and trusted software

[astral pilot]

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Duplicate recipe ignored with ID

am i not allowed to have 2 different items with 2 different recipes but same namespacekey?

[river oracle]

No

[astral pilot]

bruh

[river oracle]

Xy problem moment

[astral pilot]

what

[river oracle]

That doesn't even make any sense

[astral pilot]

its not xy problem

[astral pilot]

.

[river oracle]

Why would you be allowed to have 2 recipes under the same unique key

[astral pilot]

cuz they're different items

but same key

[river oracle]

A key is A unique identifier

So that still makes 0 sense the items aren't the identifier

[eager yacht]

.

[river oracle]

#help-development message

[astral pilot]

Well idk but anyways thanks

[native gale]

But why it says that my commit is not signed, is that an issue?

[worldly ingot]

It's not an issue unless you're drafting commits that get directly merged into the master branch, which seldom happens, especially for first time contributors

md tends to squash and rebase commits anyways so it's signed under his key

[native gale]

For a future and general knowledge, how to I enable signing? Github yells at me all the time for the same exact reason

[worldly ingot]

You would have to either have a GPG key or SSH key which you can then add its private key to the Stash

GitHub actually has an article on this
https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/managing-commit-signature-verification/signing-commits
https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/managing-commit-signature-verification/telling-git-about-your-signing-key

[eternal night]

always a good idea to sign your commits

[worldly ingot]

Obviously they're explaining how to upload it to GitHub, but the process is largely the same up until you have to upload it to BitBucket instead, which is just a different page under the settings

[fallen lily]

If on windows; Im pretty sure the git credential manager handles that for you

[eternal night]

don't want someone else to pretend to be you

[peak jetty]

how can i add a new player to the tablist and online count?

[inner mulch]

can i disable collision on entities?

[lost matrix]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/LivingEntity.html#setCollidable(boolean)

[inner mulch]

thanks

[grim hound]

I'm currently sending a lot of netty ByteBufs, which are just Particle packets but flushed directly before the compression channel handler. I was wondering whether I could somehow just send them in just one big ByteBuf, since the compression seems to be Gzip, and according to netty it's possible to do so

[lost matrix]

Yes, the online count can be changed by modifying the outgoing server list ping packet.
Adding players to the tablist requires NMS and creating new GameProfiles.

[stoic cosmos]

Anyone know how to do the worledit //replace block with another block. Ive done the select region but cant figure out how to do the rest

[eager yacht]

hey guys, i fall in the problem is when i use itemmeta#addAttributeModifiers, the default of minecraft attribute got disapear like Attack Speed and Attack Damage, and when i enchant sharpness, it doesn't work can someone tell me how to set custom Attack Attribute without remove the minecraft default one?

[lost matrix]

Through their API?

[stoic cosmos]

I cant figure out how to. its so confusing

[peak jetty]

how do i create a gameprofile?

[lost matrix]

Add the mojang authlib as a dependency and call the constructor.
You will need NMS btw

[lost matrix]

Adding custom attributes always removes the default. This is vanilla behavior.

[peak jetty]

how do i importal nms?

[lost matrix]

?nms

[undone axle]

Im using multiverse core to have seperate world and I was going to have a timer to reset the world I have that all working but I need a way to safly teleport the players out before it resets the api doesnt seem to have a way to get all the players in a world is there something in spigot to get a list of players in a specific world to teleport them out?

[stoic cosmos]

Yeah and i dont understand at all how to do the replace with the api

[lost matrix]

World#getPlayers gets you all players in a world

[peak jetty]

what do i need to put here?
GameProfile gameProfile = new GameProfile();

[lost matrix]

All parameters the GameProfile constructor asks for.

[peak jetty]

so just these 2?

@lost matrix ?

[lost matrix]

[lost matrix]

After that you need the ClientboundPlayerInfoUpdatePacket

[grim hound]

Or PacketEvents

[lost matrix]

Im thinking about adding a constructor here which lets you pass a List<Entry> directly.
This way you dont need a pesky custom ServerPlayer implementation with a spoofed connection.
That always bothered me.

Which would allow us to add more API where you can actually send fake entries in the tablist by using spigots PlayerProfile class

[zealous osprey]

anyone know how to close this huge cap between the file selector and the editor?

[lost matrix]

probably git blame?

[glass breach]

Hey guys!
(I don't really want to be spoonfed) but what would be the best way to make the equivelent of a JavaScript's SetInterval? Basically something that runs every X ticks and can be stopped when the objectives are met... Here's as far as I got...

boolean running = true;
while (running) {
  Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskLater(this, () -> {
    // code
    if(Stop Condition) {
      running = false;
    }
  }, 20L);
}

(obviously that doesnt work)

[blazing ocean]

spigot developer survey? 🤔

[lost matrix]

Use a BukkitRunnable which has a cancel() method and schedule it as a repeating task.

new BukkitRunnable() {
  @Override
  public void run() {
    if(condition) {
      this.cancel();
      return;
    }
    // Do something
  }  

}.runTaskTimer(plugin, 20, 20);

But i would honestly just start a single task when the server starts, which never stops and keeps a collection of elements in it.
You then tick the elements inside your task and remove them when they should no longer be ticked.

[blazing ocean]

But i would honestly just start a single task when the server starts, which never stops and keeps a collection of elements in it.
💀

[lost matrix]

That is 100% the way to go. It is cleaner and more performant than constantly scheduling random tasks.

[blazing ocean]

cue the 500 line bukkittask

[glass breach]

Thanks a lot!

Also, yeah the second option would be better, tho I'm crunching and the tasks wont occupate a lot of time/resources sooo I will proceed on being negligent :p

[lost matrix]

Idk what that means but such a task would be maybe 30 lines of code

[lost matrix]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/guide-on-workload-distribution-or-how-to-handle-heavy-splittable-tasks.409003/

Here is a resource that explains how to write tasks which only take a fixed amount of time per tick.
And some other stuff

[glass breach]

Also how would I go on to pass variables onto the runnable? Imagining that it is running inside of an if with local variables and I needed to pass those onto the runnable... Could it be possible or do I have to go through mutually accessible variables?

[lost matrix]

For which case? Scheduling multiple tasks or adding elements to a single task?

[glass breach]

I'm guessing adding elements to a single task

[lost matrix]

Either way i would not pass variables through lambdas of scheduled resources.
Create a concrete class implementation and pass them through the constructor.
Ideally those variables should be kept in a manager if they have semantic meaning.

[glass breach]

Like this for example

var foo; //Defined here
new BukkitRunnable() {
  @Override
  public void run() {
    if(foo == bar) { //Access it here
      this.cancel();
      return;
    }
  }  

}.runTaskTimer(plugin, 20, 20);

[lost matrix]

Whats the actual use case?

[glass breach]

A... weapon where theres a Location and a Vector, and each iteration adds Vector to the Location

[lost matrix]

How can a weapon have a Location?

Do you mean a projectile?

[glass breach]

Yes, a weapon that send a Projectile sorry

[peak jetty]

how do i use ClientboundPlayerInfoUpdatePacket?

[lost matrix]

In that case i would write a ProjectileTask which keeps track of all fired projectiles.
So create an abstract representation of your Projectile (the implementation doesnt matter, can be whatever you want)

public interface Projectile {
  void tick();
  boolean isDone();
  void onHit(Block block);
  void onHit(Entity entity);
  void onTimeout();
}

And a Task that starts with the server:

public class ProjectileTask implements Runnable {

  private final List<Projectile> projectiles;

  public ProjectileTask() {
    this.projectiles = new LinkedList<>();
  }

  @Override
  public void run() {
    this.projectiles.removeIf(projectile -> {
      projectile.tick();
      return projectile.isDone();
    });
  }
}

Every tick, all projectiles get ticked, and if isDone() returns true, then they are removed from the tick list.

This way all you need to do is add your Projectile implementations (Like FireBallProjectile, CanonBall, etc) to this ProjectileTask, and
write a robust implementation. Add and forget.

[glass breach]

Thats amazing! I kinda feel bad to have to get to the point of spoonfeeding, but hey, free code :)

Thanks a lot for explaining and being awesome overall!

[peak jetty]

i have a gameprofile, how do i send the pack to all players so they see it as another player in tab?

[lost matrix]

Thats a bit tricky and im currently writing a PR to make it easier. You need to basically either use reflections to set the fields, or write directly into a byte buffer.
ProtocolLib might be easier for this.

[peak jetty]

oh ok, i have protocollib do you know how i can do it with that?

[icy beacon]

Barely anybody will partake unless it's in like #announcements or a forum post by md 5

[granite owl]

does java CommandMap.register(String fallbackPrefix, Command command) already call something like this ```java
for (Player player : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers())
{
player.updateCommands();
}

[river oracle]

No :3

[granite owl]

lol

then why is it considered updated to the clients

on reload

[river oracle]

Reload does horrid things

Which is precisely why

[blazing ocean]

#announcements might be cool, sadly there's no @developer or something. anyway, something like that isn't happening, but would still be cool

[granite owl]

so to be clear, when i inject commands at runtime, its best to update all clients command list?

xD

[river oracle]

Yea

[granite owl]

[nova quail]

Can I shoots effects as projectiles. Like do a llama spit with hearts or llama spit with fire?

[peak jetty]

[lost matrix]

Not natively. You need to write a bit of code for this.

[lost matrix]

Try EnumSet.of instead of Set.of

[peak jetty]

still get this error: Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: Cannot cast java.util.ArrayList to java.util.EnumSet

[lost matrix]

🤷

Look online. Im currently fighting with craftbukkit

[nova quail]

How can I do this? Like launch snowball and change it to a particle?

[glass breach]

Is there any way of creating an explosion that only damages hostile entites and not players? Maybe using teams or something, the most reasonable idea right now is to create a fake explosion with particles and going through all nearby entities 💀

[peak jetty]

it says the error is happening on this line:

packet.getPlayerInfoDataLists().write(0, List.of(playerInfoData));```

[lost matrix]

If you create an explosion, you can be sure that the next BlockExplodeEvent is the one you have caused with this explosion.
This might help, but actually getting the entities damaged by this explosion is the next issue.
I dont see a trivial way for a targeted explosion.

[lost matrix]

Uhm, try writing into the index 1 instead of 0.
Its just a guess, but the only solution i could think of rn.

[glass breach]

Yes, I forgot to mention that I also thought of using an Damage event for the player and to cancel any explosion related ones, but I might need explosions that also damage the player in the future, so thats out of the question... Ok thanks!

[peak jetty]

same with this line or no?

packet.getPlayerInfoActions().write(0, actions);```

[peak jetty]

tried it, it loaded but nothing happened on enable

[civic sluice]

What's your current code?

[peak jetty]

@civic sluice its this

[lost matrix]

Sounds good, no?

No exception means something went right

[peak jetty]

well the player didnt get added to the tablist

[lost matrix]

When did you send the packet to players?

[peak jetty]

onEnable

[lost matrix]

What

During your onEnable there is literally nobody on the server.
So you didnt send the packet to anyone

[vital sandal]

https://paste.md-5.net/ixipewokev.cs
Here is my code getting datas from database and mojang api but It seemed to slowdown server for sometick even it got put in another thread

could anyone explain for me

[lost matrix]

[lost matrix]

You hereby have an embargo for anonymous classes and lambdas.
Go rewrite this by using actual classes and come back after the rewrite.

public UsefullyNamedTask extends BukkitRunnable {

}

[civic sluice]

Do it on PlayerJoin

[vital sandal]

well there is a lots to write there :l but it does have everything

[lost matrix]

All of this code should be split into dozens of methods and several classes.
It is completely convoluted and hard to read. I personally dont want to touch this at its current state.

[peak jetty]

ohhh so should i be sending it like this?

@EventHandler
    public void onJoin(PlayerJoinEvent event) {
        createFakeTablistPacket("PlutoCraftDev", ChatColor.GREEN + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "DEV " + ChatColor.RESET + "PlutoCraftDev", UUID.fromString("14aec651-52d7-422f-a218-1543f611a0ee"));

[blazing ocean]

you can't send a craftplayer a packetcontainer

but i believe there's methods on the packetcontainer

[civic sluice]

Yeah, you need to pass the player as well that will get the packet.

[civic sluice]

Looks more promising.

[lost matrix]

Yeah, but now format it by creating a several variables. Putting all that mess into one line is dirty

[peak jetty]

alright

the display name doesnt show in the tablist it just shows the name

[civic sluice]

Probably best to handle it using Scoreboard Teams.

[polar forge]

Cul*

[lost matrix]

You can raytrace in the direction the player is currently looking in. This will return the entity if the player looks at one, or null otherwise.

[flint coyote]

I think he means to hover the name in chat

[polar forge]

Yea

[flint coyote]

not the actual entity

[polar forge]

[blazing ocean]

wdym rank with weight

[peak jetty]

like a display name basically

[blazing ocean]

soooo... npcs?

[peak jetty]

fake players in tab like this:

public PacketContainer createFakeTablistPacket(String name, String displayName, UUID uuid) {
        PacketContainer packet = new PacketContainer(PacketType.Play.Server.PLAYER_INFO);
        WrappedGameProfile profile = new WrappedGameProfile(uuid, name);
        int ping = 20;
        EnumWrappers.NativeGameMode gameMode = EnumWrappers.NativeGameMode.SURVIVAL;
        WrappedChatComponent wrappedName = WrappedChatComponent.fromText(displayName);
        PlayerInfoData playerInfoData = new PlayerInfoData(profile, ping, gameMode, wrappedName, null);
        Set<EnumWrappers.PlayerInfoAction> actions = EnumSet.of(
                EnumWrappers.PlayerInfoAction.ADD_PLAYER,
                EnumWrappers.PlayerInfoAction.UPDATE_LISTED
        );
        packet.getPlayerInfoActions().write(0, actions);
        packet.getPlayerInfoDataLists().write(1, List.of(playerInfoData));
        return packet;
    }```

[blazing ocean]

try adding UPDATE_DISPLAYNAME or whatever that was

that's worked for me

[modern plank]

is it true that the entity id assigned to entities is just a counter?

doesnt it reach a limit at some point?

or at least reset?

[civic sluice]

Kinda yes, but before the limit is reached your server is kinda dead or the entity ids count from zero because the old entities are despawned long before.

[peak jetty]

ok that worked thanks, how do i change the order its in in tab, for example i want people's whos display name starts with "OWNER" or something to show up before

[modern plank]

i guess, but what if

it just seems so insecure

[blazing ocean]

i don't quite know how tablist sorting works, but i guess you could hide the entries and show them in a particular order again

[civic sluice]

65k entities or more is needed.
More if it's a long instead of an int.

[modern plank]

ist the limit 2 billion or something

for int

[civic sluice]

You don't fetch the entity by their entity id , you do by uuid.

[modern plank]

the id is used in packets though

[blazing ocean]

they depend on the world AFAIK

[civic sluice]

The likelihood that it clashes is too small to even be considered.

[worthy star]

how can i put usage message for CommandAPI, because withUsage("usage") doesn't seem to be working

it does nothing

[modern plank]

sure

[peak jetty]

how do i send the packet to all the players online instead of only the one which joins?

[lost matrix]

Iterate over online players and send or use plib broadcast

[peak jetty]

Send the remove packet
