Use something like ManagementFactory. OperatingSystemMXBean would allow you to get the CPU load

[brittle geyser]

just use spark

if u want advanced memory info, u need to use JDK mission control, mat or visualVM

[echo basalt]

Yourkit

[brittle geyser]

with spark u can get info about plugins processer usage

[quiet ice]

what exactly is the problem anyways

[brittle geyser]

Why reinvent the bicycle? Use existing programs

[echo basalt]

We're using lossy hashing for culling

[quiet ice]

so basically - rounding?

[echo basalt]

Yeah but encoding a whole location in a long

[quiet ice]

So not something like Objects.hash((long) x * c, (long) y * c, (long) z * c)?

[echo basalt]

Nope

Because we want to fine tune exactly the losses

So we can define how many "steps" are in each axis

And keep the pos xyz the same

The whole point isn't to avoid collisions

But to use them in our favor

Force a collision if it's within a certain range

[quiet ice]

so something like

fun hash(x, y, z, c) {
  xi : int = x * c
  yi : int = y * c
  zi : int = z * c
  ret xi & ((1 << 26) - 1) << 0
      | yi & ((1 << 12) - 1) << 26
      | zi & ((1 << 26) - 1) << (26 + 12)
}

[proven musk]

ok, for some reason I can't save persistent data using my setup
so while the server runs im saving it into a hashmap, and then onDisable I save all of that to each players pdc
however when i restart the server it doesn't load the data

anything wrong with this on first blush?

[echo basalt]

Yeah but xyz are encoded too

[quiet ice]

I mean surely the MSBs aren't required?

[hollow vessel]

still doesnt working

[echo basalt]

They're nice to haves

We just store a Map<UUID, Set<Long>>

And check directly

[quiet ice]

• even your algo culls them at 0x3F_FF_FF_FF (= (1 << 30) - 1) for x and z and 0xFF (= (1 << 16) - 1) for y

Oops, forgot the bitshifts before OR'ing them together in my pseudocode

[ocean hollow]

private static final AttributeModifier attackSpeed = new AttributeModifier(UUID.randomUUID(), "generic.attackSpeed", 0, AttributeModifier.Operation.ADD_SCALAR);
```  if I want to add attribute item, will it set attackSpeed to 0?

and than that:

[quiet ice]

idk, I feel like it won't do anything whatsoever

[young knoll]

I think it will

?tas

[undone axle]

https://tryitands.ee/

[quiet ice]

Really? It's ADD_SCALAR?

?jd-s

[undone axle]

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

[quiet ice]

I'd go with https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/attribute/AttributeModifier.Operation.html#MULTIPLY_SCALAR_1 and -1 as the scalar instead of 0

[young knoll]

As soon as you add a modifier the base modifiers are gone

So adding 0 to 0 should result in 0

Althought now that I think about it that'll be apllied to the players base attack speed

Which is 4

So you probably want -4

[quiet ice]

I mean multiplication with 0 will defo get you to 0 so you'll completely avoid everything else

[young knoll]

True

Depends if you want to cancel our attributes on armor ig

And attributes on the player itself

Also note that at 0 attack speed the player will never raise the item when switching to it

[ivory gale]

Hello !

I'm designing a plugin to "freeze" the state of blocks, i.e. prevent them from growing, and I'm trying to cancel the growth of cactus, sugar cane and other plants.

These trigger BlockGrowEvent events, which offer two methods:

• getBlock(), which returns the block before the growth.
• getNewState(), which returns the new block

The problem is that these two methods concern the block that has just appeared, i.e. just above the block I've frozen, so I can't carry out my check on the stored blocks, which shouldn't be growing. For example, in the case of the cactus, getBlock() will return air, and getNewState() will return a cactus. And there are no other methods. Of course I could use the getRelative(0, -1, 0) method to retrieve the block below and that would work for the cactus and the sugar cane, but that would cause problems for the wheat, which stays on the same block and calls the same event.

It's a shame, because the BlockSpreadEvent, which works in the same way, offers a getSource() method... Why isn't this the case with the BlockGrowEvent, or why don't the cactus trigger the BlockSpreadEvent instead? So, does anyone know how to efficiently retrieve the event's origin block, the one from which the extension is added, without having to check the item's previous type and add conditions?

Thank you very much!

[chrome beacon]

You can always add a getSource method yourself with a PR

[ivory gale]

I guess it's a good challenge

[hybrid spoke]

well good thought. you could just PR it as olivo said. but if you dont want to PR, you will have to distribute your system over the two events

not sure how its handled serverside, but my first thought would be that it could be a challenge to get the source of melons f.e.

maybe its clearer than i think it is

[ivory gale]

I'm not sure I have the required level, but I can always try 🙃
But as you said, it might be complicated to find the origin of plants that can spread horizontally like melons, especially if there are several side by side

[azure vault]

i need to use com.github.koca2000:NoteBlockAPI:1.6.2, it's not in mvncentral, only in jitpack. is there any way to use the libraries plugin.yml feature to do this?

like can i add an additional repository somewhere?

[hybrid spoke]

exactly, but maybe you find the origin just in the code

you'll have to see

[young knoll]

You could also just jank it with the physics event

But that event is a bit Oof

[ivory gale]

From what I've read, it's a good way to make your server explode 😂

[young knoll]

I mean it’s not actually that bad

But it’s not ideal

[hybrid spoke]

just stay lightweight

[ivory gale]

Oh wow, to contribute to Spigot I really have to give my physical address and phone number? That's pretty intimidating 😳

[hybrid spoke]

yeah because you have to sign a contract

[ivory gale]

I'll add that to my CV

[hybrid spoke]

could be the beginning of something great 🤷‍♂️

[quiet ice]

I mean to contribute to libGDX you have to print out a text file, sign it, scan it, send it as a PDF inside an email and then send the piece of paper via snail mail.
So spigot certainly is not the worst one out there

[chrome beacon]

👀

wait really

[quiet ice]

yeah, I was like "okay?" when I first read it. Seems like it is only for larger contributions though

[chrome beacon]

hm I don't see the snail mail part

just email

[tardy delta]

oh libgdx is java, i thought we were talking about some niche c library

[quiet ice]

https://github.com/libgdx/libgdx/blob/7c6db62bdc8d39989be3ad7e06cac641fdb268b4/CLA.txt#L12-L15, well it is optional but I did include it anyways for the giggles

[tardy delta]

ye sure lets send a document to austria, piece of cake

hopefully it would arrive

[quiet ice]

there's a different CLA for corporate entities, which is something I haven't seen before either

[proven musk]

???? why does the actual folder disappear?

im trying to upgrade from ecplise to intellj

and the folder shows up for a sec and then goes woop bye bye

[tardy delta]

id say remove that eclipse nonsense

[quiet ice]

which folder?

[tardy delta]

src

[quiet ice]

they seem to not be using maven or gradle from the looks of it

[proven musk]

this shows up for a split second

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/creating-a-blank-spigot-plugin-in-intellij-idea/

[tardy delta]

nope, go use maven or gradle

[proven musk]

im trying to follow this tutorial

[quiet ice]

Using either maven or gradle might be best practice. I'd say you have your visibility options wrongly set up

But since I am a hardcore eclipse enthusiast, I cannot help you beyond that

[tardy delta]

id say just create a pom.xml

good luck with gradle

[proven musk]

what even is maven

[quiet ice]

I mean at the end of the day it usually boils down to whether you hate having lots of lines or not

[proven musk]

this tutorail that says "create a blank spigot file with maven" doesn't rly say much about it

[tardy delta]

whether you want to have an awful lot of gradle files

[proven musk]

unless im missing something

[quiet ice]

have you heard of make? It's that for java, but 1000 times better

[proven musk]

nope

im mostly concerned on how do I "go use maven"

[quiet ice]

I wouldn't recommend that tutorial, there is a tutorial for maven and spigot and IJ though

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/creating-a-plugin-with-maven-using-intellij-idea/

[proven musk]

literally the exact one im using

[quiet ice]

it's not

scroll down

[tardy delta]

just copy the pom.xml, change it and call it a day

[proven musk]

idk what to tell u

I added the pom.xml but nothing changed

[tardy delta]

gotta re open it

intellij isnt gonna magically refresh it

[quiet ice]

oh you previously linked to a different page earlier

[proven musk]

tbf idk what any of this is

[quiet ice]

In that case you are all set!

[proven musk]

but thanks

[tardy delta]

its just a build system, like for dependencies and stuff

[proven musk]

it worked

kinda

is there a way to generate a proper pom.xml file

cuz idk what to put as the headers

[quiet ice]

headers?

[tardy delta]

what did you get?

well just create something along the lines of

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
    <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
    <groupId>com.example</groupId>
    <artifactId>project</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.1</version>
</project>

[proven musk]

it needs like a project thing which I could add but I assume theres a better way than manually adding that and making sure its all right

[tardy delta]

just copy my project tag, never seems to change

[proven musk]

alr

ty

I think it works

[tardy delta]

lovely bunch of chickanery, but if it works

please also use a gitignore, well if you put it on github atleast

[quiet ice]

meh, it's only required if one does version control

[tardy delta]

true

i just make a template once and use gh repo create name --template=path", github cli for the win

[proven musk]

how do I make it so that it outputs the jar directly into my plugins folder

[quiet ice]

I only create a repo once a month or so so I never bothered to streamline the process - but I also have enough repos that I can copy & paste what I need and know where to find what I need

I think mfnalex might have a guide for that somewhere

[tardy delta]

google for <outputDir> or somth

https://blog.jeff-media.com/how-to-make-maven-automatically-put-your-plugins-jar-into-your-test-servers-plugins-folder/

[quiet ice]

see

[proven musk]

ty!

yayy got it working

[lilac dagger]

did any of you guys tried to get the generic type of a list in this context?

[tardy delta]

impossible

or what do you mean

[lilac dagger]

fields carry generic info assuming nothing deletes the attribute from the class

[tardy delta]

theres type erasure

[rotund ravine]

Why

[lilac dagger]

i'm upgrading my config system

[rotund ravine]

ArrayListMultiMap 🫶🏻

[proven musk]

wheres my intellj code highlighting?

[rotund ravine]

Are you saving empty lists?

[lilac dagger]

nope

[rotund ravine]

Empty like it has string but no values

[lilac dagger]

there is value

[tardy delta]

could call getClass() on an element if you're lucky

[lost matrix]

After compiling, this will be literally a
Map<Object, List<Object>>
->
Map<Object, List>
->
Map<Object, Object>
->
Map
You end up with a Map with completely unknown types

[lilac dagger]

actually it's not true for Field

[rotund ravine]

Just do nothing if empty otherwise pretend it’s a List<Object> and save individual keys as their respective types

[lilac dagger]

field.getgenerictype returns the class type

[lilac dagger]

that's a solution, it's just a bit slow

[tardy delta]

isnt Field::getGenericType() for the field type itself

[lilac dagger]

yup

[rotund ravine]

Whatever it is querying with getGenericType is probably slow too

[tardy delta]

you cannot ask a Map what its generic type parameters are

[lilac dagger]

i guess it doesn't matter hmm

[tardy delta]

could write a code generator if you're feeling fancy

à la annotation processor

[lilac dagger]

so close

this is the final issue

[young knoll]

https://github.com/boxbeam/RedLib/blob/master/src/redempt/redlib/config/ConfigType.java

[lilac dagger]

i mean this works

[young knoll]

😉

[lilac dagger]

hmm

thanks col

[rotund ravine]

Or use kotlin, it probably has something for this

[tardy delta]

you know something we dont know?

[lilac dagger]

this is uh, over engineered i think

i have this already

[proven musk]

is my dependency not setup right? I dont get autocomplete or anything

[tardy delta]

:o ParameterizedType is a thing? ig it just asks the jvm

[lilac dagger]

yup

found in gson types class

[rotund ravine]

Why are you manually importing stuff

[proven musk]

thats what it said to do

[young knoll]

Idk I just used what redlib had :p

[proven musk]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/creating-a-plugin-with-maven-using-intellij-idea/

if I know switching would be such a pain in the ass I woulda just stayed with ecilpse 😭

[tardy delta]

its a good thing to get rid of eclipse

[quiet ice]

You have summoned the wrong person

[tardy delta]

people will probably start throwing stuff at me now

[tardy delta]

especially geol

[quiet ice]

Well pretty much only geol and perhaps elgar

[proven musk]

can you elaborate

Ive done all that

[lilac dagger]

eclipse is good, otherwise our intellij overlords would think that community edition shouldn't exists

[proven musk]

dude I know

[tardy delta]

dunno how good eclipse is now, ive only used it in the very beginning like 3-4 years ago

[proven musk]

its just not doing that

[rotund ravine]

Take a picture of ur full IJ window

[quiet ice]

Is your classpath even set up correctly?

[proven musk]

i have no idea what that is

[quiet ice]

Eclipse hasn't changes a bit over the last few years - at least not in a capacity that I'd be praising it for

[rotund ravine]

maven uses src/java too right?

[quiet ice]

src/main/java yes

[proven musk]

🤷‍♀️

[quiet ice]

This is an issue with using the wrong source directory as JanTuck detected

[proven musk]

do I have to change the folder

[tardy delta]

create a proper package structure

[quiet ice]

Yeah, just dump everything in your "src" directory in "src/main/java"

[quiet ice]

unrelated.

[proven musk]

ok that worked

ty guys

why does intellj not like when I use var

eclipse was totally chill with it

[rotund ravine]

Check ur java version in project settings

[brittle geyser]

event.getEntity() ALT + enter + enter

[rotund ravine]

?

[proven musk]

yeah ik I can change it but I dont wanna

[brittle geyser]

wait a moment

[rotund ravine]

What is ur java version at

[young knoll]

Booo var

[quiet ice]

You'd need something like https://github.com/Geolykt/EnchantmentsPlus/blob/0d1a07d2a1454673dfe5a5711b6ec70f8a516389/pom.xml#L287-L295 in your pom

[proven musk]

I will not tolerate codeshaming

it works for me

[young knoll]

Maybe java 8 was better

[tardy delta]

ew

[rotund ravine]

U need jdk 10 or newer for var

[proven musk]

yay it worked

[brittle geyser]

var is big problem

[quiet ice]

Wanna see my Java 6 project?

[tardy delta]

or switch to kotlin and get var and val for free 🎉

[proven musk]

maybe im built different

[rotund ravine]

val > var

[quiet ice]

I ... don't want to know what you all copied

[proven musk]

idk if you considered that

[tardy delta]

as in?

[proven musk]

the part that was highlighted

[rotund ravine]

Greater than

Better than

[tardy delta]

uh ye..

[proven musk]

whats val

[quiet ice]

People are usually not smart enough to figure out it belongs in the plugins block that they need to create

[tardy delta]

final var in kotlin

[rotund ravine]

Just a final var

[proven musk]

guess im super smart

i already had that tho

[tardy delta]

i believe lombok also has val but that would work with a compiler plugin

[brittle geyser]

gif not working

[rotund ravine]

She wants to use var 🤷🏽‍♂️

Just let her

[proven musk]

she

[sullen marlin]

real developers use real variables

[brittle geyser]

U can write getter and press ALT + ENTER + ENTER

[brittle geyser]

Yeeaaaaaaaa

Option + Enter for Mac

[proven musk]

im above the average programmer

[tardy delta]

real developers dont write types twice

[sullen marlin]

go use python

[proven musk]

real developers dont need to use good principles

[tardy delta]

nah go or c++

[young knoll]

Be C# and do it backwards

[quiet ice]

real developers don't spend their entire day on the spigot discord

[brittle geyser]

Real developers use keyboard shortcuts

[young knoll]

MyObject object = new();

[tardy delta]

real developers go touch grass once in a while

[proven musk]

guess we aren't real developers then 😭

[brittle geyser]

new MyObject() ALT + ENTER + ENTER

[tardy delta]

or var object = new MyObject() 🎉

[proven musk]

yes I know

[tardy delta]

c++ just be like MyObject object, i love it

i believe i scared everyone away by mentioning

[young knoll]

Yeah but that feels less cursed than new();

[tardy delta]

i use it on fields, quite reasonable

[young knoll]

Ig

Idk C# wacky sometimes

[tardy delta]

i'm starting to like it over java

[vast ledge]

YOU SAY WHAT

[tardy delta]

wouldnt ever touch c# if i didnt have too but i just like it

[vast ledge]

I was boutta say...

[young knoll]

Some things do be kinda nice

[tardy delta]

it has structs

i can sleep happily if i know i didnt waste time on a heap allocation

[young knoll]

Getting those fancy $”” strings up in here

[tardy delta]

meanwhile we getting weird ass string templates

[vast ledge]

'Fancy String'

or js

its cursed

[tardy delta]

cuz they cant alter the lang too much

[vast ledge]

("%s - %d" % (1, 2))

Like tf is that

[tardy delta]

string and double and something?

[vast ledge]

no like placeholders in text

[proven musk]

whadda hell

[tardy delta]

be glad you dont have to use printf

[proven musk]

now my plugin wont load

after switching to intellj

[vast ledge]

Cool

[vast ledge]

Man why not

it fun

[young knoll]

$”My name is {name}” > whatever java is getting

[tardy delta]

STR."""hello"""

tf

[proven musk]

i have no idea what the problem is

[vast ledge]

Just do str.replace("{name}", name)

why the new fancy shit

[young knoll]

That’s slow

Smh

[proven musk]

since it wont even have the common decency to give me an error

[young knoll]

Muh cpu cycles

[tardy delta]

string processor would still have to do it at runtime

wouldnt be surprised if it generates the code for it at runtime

[vast ledge]

Maybe

god knows

[tardy delta]

lambdas do that too but anyways

[vast ledge]

but lambda

is nice

:D

[tardy delta]

string concantenations do that too

"a" + "b" could turn into StringConcatFactory.concatSomethingSomething

[young knoll]

~~ C# operator overloading also kinda nice~~

[vast ledge]

AtomicInteger largest = new AtomicInteger(0);
json.keySet().forEach(key -> {
  String str = stripKey(key);
  if(!str.equalsIgnoreCase(p1.getWorld().getUID().toString())) return;
  largest.set(Math.max(largest.get(), Integer.parseInt(key.split("\\.")[1].split("\\.")[0])));
});
return largest.get();

look at it

it so lovely

[tardy delta]

well this wouldnt, but it would if youre using variables

[vast ledge]

it saves so much space

[ivory sleet]

apart from that u use atomic integer

but yea

[vast ledge]

Yea

[brittle geyser]

largest

[vast ledge]

the Atomic stuff is annoying af

[tardy delta]

in kotlin, it works fine with Int but wraps your int in the background 💀

[young knoll]

It stills feels weird doing += on a list tho

Ngl

[brittle geyser]

new AtmoicInreger() is equal to new AtmoicInreger(0)
Congradulations u save 0.0001 seconds

[ivory sleet]

singleton array or effective final w var

[vast ledge]

Man let me define my Atomic Integer

[brittle geyser]

Ok

[ivory sleet]

int[] o = new int[1];

//or
var b = new Object() {
  int ref = 0;
};
b.ref //access

[young knoll]

Cursed

Both of them

[ivory sleet]

fr

[vast ledge]

brother

the actual

fck

is that

abomination

[tardy delta]

wondering what rust does

[ivory sleet]

ayo

why the hate

[vast ledge]

explodes

[proven musk]

huhhh

[young knoll]

Wait can’t you just use Integer

[vast ledge]

no

who lieks integers

just use int

[brittle geyser]

Is it your problem?

[tardy delta]

is that effective final?

[vast ledge]

stop using not not not not

it hurts

[young knoll]

Ah right because it’s immutable

[proven musk]

yes

[young knoll]

MutableInt when

[vast ledge]

never

[proven musk]

(this is supposed to be HELP development right?)

[young knoll]

Actually that’s probably a thing

[ivory sleet]

it was

buuut

[vast ledge]

used to

[brittle geyser]

just click implement methods

[rotund ravine]

No one really cares unless someone is asking for help

[ivory sleet]

ask away yk :P

[proven musk]

im the one asking for help

[rotund ravine]

Click on CommandExecutor

Then click alt enter

Select implement methods

[proven musk]

but it worked before

[brittle geyser]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/create-a-simple-command/

[vast ledge]

"But it worked before"

thats the same statment

sa

"It works on my PC"

[proven musk]

it literally worked before i moved to intellj

the code cant be the issue

[vast ledge]

No shit

Did you import it with intellij?

[proven musk]

thats the tutorial I followed

[brittle geyser]

intellij is smarter

[vast ledge]

or did you just pull the folder over?

Show code

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[proven musk]

alright uhh

I hit implement methods and I just created a copy of what I had

I deleted that and now it works

very smart intellj

[vast ledge]

Cool, so problem solved

[brittle geyser]

maybe u have mistake on name

or method parametres

[rotund ravine]

Or indentation

[vast ledge]

Anyways @ivory sleet , Completeable futures, yay or ney?

[proven musk]

idk

[brittle geyser]

so intellij just fixed it

[rotund ravine]

Sure

[hybrid spoke]

obviously yay

[vast ledge]

I abuse the shit out of them

Worse then my static abuse

[rotund ravine]

Well that’s less yay

[hybrid spoke]

cf everything

[ivory sleet]

they're cool I suppose

i mean structured concurrency api is gonna be neat also

[rotund ravine]

I still remember the guy who thought he could use CFs whenComplete or whatever to have it run on the main thread

[tardy delta]

it simply looks a bit weird, might also want to try out virtual threads

[proven musk]

if im saving data using onDisable theres a chance that it wont save in the event of a crash right? Or do I not have to worry about that

[vast ledge]

I mean look at this, its epic, lambda + completablfuture is epic

[rotund ravine]

Depends on ur data if u want to worry or not

[proven musk]

I just wasn't sure if usually it gets called anyway

[vast ledge]

I mean...

a crash is a crash

[rotund ravine]

It doesn’g

[proven musk]

alr

[young knoll]

I wish there was a CompletableFuture#join that also deal with exceptions

[vast ledge]

You wish

[young knoll]

Yes ik try catch but blah

[vast ledge]

But thats

like

3 more lines

wayyy

to many

[tardy delta]

add an .exceptionally first before joining? or doesnt that work?

[young knoll]

Exactly!

[brittle geyser]

Is completable future equal function?

[ivory sleet]

get()?

[young knoll]

Idk I just made a janky wrapper that adds a join(BiConsumer<Exception, T>)

[tardy delta]

makes him deal with an interrupted ex

[young knoll]

Get throws a checked exception

[ivory sleet]

yea

[tardy delta]

ive never found that exception to be useful

[ivory sleet]

its useful

[vast ledge]

The only reason i used completable future was cus i wanted it async ☠️

[ivory sleet]

because it allows for async things to cancel appropriately

[young knoll]

SonarLint just tells me to dethrone it

rethrow

[ivory sleet]

anyway

[tardy delta]

hmmye..

[ivory sleet]

get() throws ExecutionException

[tardy delta]

anyways good night

[vast ledge]

Everything throws an exception

event good night

Exception in main thread: Couldnt sleep

[ivory sleet]

and then join() throws completion error right?

or sth

[young knoll]

I believe so

[rotund ravine]

Wouldn’t this run async as well then

[ivory sleet]

yea thats fine

the actual exception is just the cause in those ones

iirc

[brittle geyser]

why u checking valid 2 times

use else

[vast ledge]

ewww

!else

idk

i just have a personal issue with else

[hybrid spoke]

boilerplate ftw

[vast ledge]

probably

[hybrid spoke]

implicit else then

[rotund ravine]

[rotund ravine]

Just put a return in the first if

[vast ledge]

Ya know

i could

but then it wouldnt be nearly as fun to torture myself :D

[brittle geyser]

How i can do it initialize on plugin start and only one instance

private static ScheduleManager instance;
    public static ScheduleManager getInstance() {
        if (ScheduleManager.instance == null) {
            ScheduleManager.instance = new ScheduleManager();
        }
        return ScheduleManager.instance;
    }

    private ScheduleManager() {

    }

[rotund ravine]

A plugin will only be initialized once

Hint hint onEnable

[brittle geyser]

i can split getInstance to 2 another methods

initialize and get?

[vast ledge]

????

[rotund ravine]

I mean if ur lazy

Just getInstance in onEnable

U could also

#help-development message

[vast ledge]

or just init it in ur onEnable?

[vast ledge]

yea

[rotund ravine]

Look here for an even simpler one

[vast ledge]

then call initialize in your plugin onEnable()

[rough ibex]

what a font

lmao

[proven musk]

How would i keep a specific item in a specific slot? (basically a menu item)

[brittle geyser]

It`s for classes without parametres ?

[vast ledge]

cancel the move events

[proven musk]

what event would be best to actually put the item there

[vast ledge]

Theres a bunch

InventoryMoveEvent

i forogr the other ones

refer to docs

[brittle geyser]

initialize inventory when u get it

[hybrid spoke]

you want to cancel the inventoryclickevent

and inventorydragevent

[brittle geyser]

write class which contain inventory

[rotund ravine]

Maybe even the drop event

[brittle geyser]

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

[proven musk]

sorry idk enought about bukkit to understand what ur saying

[brittle geyser]

You need to put things in your inventory once?

[rotund ravine]

We don’t like inventoryholders

[proven musk]

I just need to make sure its always there

[brittle geyser]

why

[proven musk]

ig i could just do it on player join

[vast ledge]

Heres all the inveory events

stab the embed

please

its my entire fucking screen

[brittle geyser]

Is it a memory leak problem?

[rotund ravine]

It’s a cpu time problem

[brittle geyser]

Oh

[hybrid spoke]

not sure if thats possible

i mean to drop if you already cancelled the other events

[rotund ravine]

Hotbar 🤷🏽‍♂️

[brittle geyser]

I need to rewrite my code xd

[hybrid spoke]

hotbar yes, but the topic was menu items

[rotund ravine]

No

The topic was keeping an item in one slot

[hybrid spoke]

()

[rotund ravine]

Yes

A slot can be in the hotbar

And can be clicked as a menu item if setup as such

[vast ledge]

oh god

i have to pay

fck

man

why didnt i go to bed

i wouldnt have thought avout the server bill

yes but why

[undone axle]

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

[proven musk]

no I want to change the nbt data of something

[rotund ravine]

Yes

[proven musk]

not just store data

[chrome beacon]

What NBT data

[rotund ravine]

What data?

[vast ledge]

Everybody be askin the same question

[proven musk]

in this instance the player of a player head

but id like to know how to do it in general

[chrome beacon]

Use the API method for that

in general you don't touch the nbt directly at all

[proven musk]

whats the api method

[chrome beacon]

block or item?

[proven musk]

ohh is it like

itemmeta

[chrome beacon]

Yeah

SkullMeta for skulls

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/inventory/meta/SkullMeta.html#setOwningPlayer(org.bukkit.OfflinePlayer)

[proven musk]

hmm

how do I get the skullmeta

[vast ledge]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/1-19-4-custom-skull-texture.600845/

[chrome beacon]

cast the item meta

[proven musk]

ah

[chrome beacon]

not sure what the point of sending that was

https://blog.jeff-media.com/creating-custom-heads-in-spigot-1-18-1/

^^ this is what you should send for custom skulls

it's also what the thread above links to

[vast ledge]

I c

[proven musk]

alr I got it

ty

[young knoll]

Man Alex should be paying us for all this advertising

[sullen marlin]

Alex to make official docs when

[ivory sleet]

fr

[worldly ingot]

mfw wiki pages

Also, wow, really? A rainbow skull as an example. Even Alex has gone woke. Unacceptable

[quiet ice]

Thanks, I had a great laugh. Unfortunately that won't happen here

[worldly ingot]

Can't be having none of them wokies around these parts

/s

[remote swallow]

alex is the wokie

ban him

[quiet ice]

I haven't seen him in a while, is he already banned?

[proven musk]

var data = PlayerData.getPlayerData(player);
var stack = new ItemStack(Material.PLAYER_HEAD, data.soulPoints);

var skullMeta = (SkullMeta)stack.getItemMeta();
skullMeta.setOwnerProfile(player.getPlayerProfile());
player.getInventory().setItem(44,stack);
player.sendMessage("Updated player menu");

I know this code is running on the right player, but its not doing anything. Do i misunderstand what the .setitem command does

im pretty sure soulPoints is not 0 but could that be it?

[worldly ingot]

Nope. Should work fine. Though a couple things to note:

1. Is data.soulPoints > 0?
2. You didn't call stack.setItemMeta(skullMeta) before you set it in the inventory

[proven musk]

ah

why might it not be working other than the soulpoints

[worldly ingot]

That's probably the only thing I can think of tbh

Aside from just that code not getting invoked at all

[proven musk]

I changed it to 1 but its still not working

but im getting the message in chat

[worthy yarrow]

Time for debug statements

[worldly ingot]

Actually, wait, what is slot 44? If you're trying to set the head slot there's a setHelmet()

[proven musk]

the last hotbarslot

but idk if thats right

[worldly ingot]

Definitely not

[proven musk]

idk what the slot ids are tbh i just looked up it for vanilla

[worthy yarrow]

You might also want to check that the slot isn't already filled with something

[worldly ingot]

Yeah Bukkit's slot ids differ from the protocol ones

Slot 0 would be the first hotbar slot

[proven musk]

so it would be 9

[worldly ingot]

0 - 8 from left to right, then 9 - 35 for the inventory slots, top left to bottom right

[proven musk]

er

9

[worldly ingot]

Oh, sorry, last slot, yes. 8

[proven musk]

8

ok it worked with that

where are the real slot ids

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/raw-slot-ids/ this is wrong

[worldly ingot]

^

[proven musk]

how would I uhhh

set stuff like bold and italics

[young knoll]

Smh bad wiki

[proven musk]

strangley theres nothing on google

[worldly ingot]

ChatColor has constants for those

[proven musk]

is it just chatcolor.italic?

[worldly ingot]

Yes

[proven musk]

weeird it didn't show up when I first tried it

how do I ensure its NOT italic
bc usually custom item names are italic by default

is there no way to just use the datapack json method then id know what im doing

[worthy yarrow]

You can do the generic chatColor.(color), I prefer the translateAlternateColorCodes, as to make the messages easier to configure (when it comes to color and what not)

[worthy yarrow]

You could "reparse" the message to ensure it's not italic

[proven musk]

huh

[worthy yarrow]

Just make a new string objext

[worldly ingot]

ChatColor.WHITE would work fine

It will strip the italics

[worthy yarrow]

Or do what choco said

Cuz I'm cooked

[proven musk]

oh so any color would work

how would you add two things

[worthy yarrow]

Technically yes

[proven musk]

like color and italics

[worldly ingot]

Colour first, then format I think

[worthy yarrow]

translateAlternateColorCodes

[proven musk]

thanks!

[worthy yarrow]

Does this not apply to the situation? Just use generic mc color codes and it should be fine

[proven musk]

is swapping hands (swapping with offhand) just a item drag event?

[worthy yarrow]

I thought there was a playerSwapHandItemsEvent

[proven musk]

alr

how would I stop a player from moving an item from the inventory? Im cancelling the drag and click event

but it like

lets me pick it up with the item staying in the same place

it duplicates it basically

[worthy yarrow]

EntityPickupItemEvent and playerDropItemEvent

[proven musk]

I dont think thats it

[worthy yarrow]

Wdym by moving an item from the inventory?

[proven musk]

thats when you pick it up and throw it on the ground

sorry I meant in the inventory

[worthy yarrow]

send your listener code

[proven musk]

@EventHandler
    public void onItemClick(InventoryClickEvent event) {
        if(event.getSlot() == 8) event.setCancelled(true);
    }

    @EventHandler
    public void onItemDrag(InventoryDragEvent event) {
        if(event.getRawSlots().contains(8)) event.setCancelled(true);
    }```

[young knoll]

Creative mode is jank

[worthy yarrow]

Oh

[young knoll]

Replicate in survival first

[worthy yarrow]

That's why haha

[proven musk]

OH

it works in survival

how would I get it to work in creative? is it not possible

[worthy yarrow]

Creative likes to mess with inventory events

[proven musk]

its ok if I doesn't but id rather it worked

[worldly ingot]

Yeah, you're a bit shit out of luck when it comes to creative mode inventory handling

[young knoll]

Mojaaaaaang

[proven musk]

nw

[worthy yarrow]

tbf

[proven musk]

ok so

[worthy yarrow]

You could prolly detect what gamemode the player is in and not allow them to do whatever it is you want whilst in creative

[proven musk]

when I hit a number key it moves the item still, what event is that

[worthy yarrow]

but that's like your best fix tbf

[fluid river]

can somebody explain

how does server know that entity should be in this exact position and state next tick

[worthy yarrow]

I think it's the same event, you just have to detect what sort of click it was

[fluid river]

like server doesn't know what blocks are and that entities are stepping on them

why can't entities drop through the blocks then

[young knoll]

The server knows what the collision shape of a block is

[fluid river]

so server stores collision shape of all blocks in all loaded chunks at runtime?

[proven musk]

why wouldn;t the server know that?

[fluid river]

since server is more about packets, not like spawning stuff

[young knoll]

It knows what state is at what position

And each state has a collision state

[fluid river]

server doesn't like "see" what's going on

[proven musk]

I mean the blocks are all on the server I assume

[fluid river]

it just receives and sends packets

[proven musk]

where else would they be

[young knoll]

It also stores all the data, lol

Main thing the server doesn’t have is textures

[fluid river]

yeah, true

entire rendering is client-side

but like on server each tick each entity updates it's position, right?

[proven musk]

hmmmm

[fluid river]

players are not taking part in it at all

like in force-loaded chunks entities should still exist like around spawn?

and do smth like fight against each other

[young knoll]

They won’t spawn

Nor will they be active

But yes they will still “exist”

[proven musk]

so the item drop event doesn't know what slot its from

[fluid river]

well, that probably can be arranged in the api

but it's not possible yet afair

[fluid river]

sooooo

[fluid river]

.

at least entities which are near players

[young knoll]

Yes

[fluid river]

and some kind of code does the ground check for that each tick

and if there is no ground, entities are pulled down by simulated gravity

am i thinking in right direction?

[worthy yarrow]

I'm quite sure you could fine a simple workaround for this

[young knoll]

Yes

[proven musk]

im jsut gonna do this the right way and store the fact that the item can't be moved in its pdc

[fluid river]

isn't there some kind of playerdecidedtothrowstuff event?

[brittle geyser]

It is crazy code?

[worthy yarrow]

Probably for the better haha

[fluid river]

seems fine to me

[fluid river]

so well, players are not taking part in this calculations

[young knoll]

Correct

[fluid river]

cuz i mean some games which have a host-clients multiplayer model, host player does the physics

and just sends packets to all connected guys

[fluid river]

now i only need to find the code which can help me with this ground-check task

i'm doing a multiplayer shit for like 4 players in total for lobby

[young knoll]

What

[fluid river]

and using the minecraft system where everything is counted as a multiplayer(even a singleplayer world)

[fluid river]

im coding a game basically

with npcs which are gonna walk around

i only need them walking(no dialogues or actions yet)

[worthy yarrow]

Have you considered using mythic mobs?

[fluid river]

if that's to me, then i'm not coding minigame

[young knoll]

I think they are making a stand-alone game

[fluid river]

im coding a game from scratch

[worthy yarrow]

Ah

Thought you meant a minigame

[slender elbow]

Craftmine?

[fluid river]

more of a

RimSky

[young knoll]

Minetest

Wait no that’s already a thing

[fluid river]

yeah

[fluid river]

and that's not

I guess you all got the joke, i'm a bit frustrated right now

sorry for that

[worthy yarrow]

Do you mean this in the way like if you paused the game in singleplayer, thr world around you will still continue?

[young knoll]

Minecraft runs on a server in both single player and multiplayer

[fluid river]

also that yes

[young knoll]

The single player server is internal where the multiplayer one is dedicated

[fluid river]

well, in my game server just stops, saving data if possible when anybody is not responding for too long

it's kinda like not letting game progress when you lose second player

in splitscreen games

[worthy yarrow]

Intentional? Seems a bit unorthodox

[fluid river]

wdym?

[worthy yarrow]

Why would the server stop when players stop responding / interacting or wtv

[fluid river]

i mean it's like a hard coop for not more than 4 players

you ever played for the king?

[worthy yarrow]

Ohh gotcha so it is intentional then

I have not, but I get the idea

[fluid river]

there are 3 players in total, and when any of them loses connection, game stops

i just had a dream for a long time to create some kind of RPG but also with coop

like imagine playing DnD or Munchkin, but players are in open world and meet each other like randomly

one of 4 players can, for example, never meet other 3

[worthy yarrow]

Dont get me wrong rpg is fun, but I'd like to see a sandbox / rpg style come out... as in something where the story doesnt actually end, just keeps building from player input

[fluid river]

well, why should game "end"

rpgs are mostly freeplayed

with no end

i mean sure you can beat all questlines

[worthy yarrow]

"end" in the sense of the storyline for most games

[fluid river]

but that doesn't stop random fun encounters

Or like random activities

and the bangerest banger -- game can have mods

with new quests and location

[worthy yarrow]

Yeah but imo those activities/objectives will never be as fun as the "main" goal of completing the storyline as it were

[fluid river]

I mean i'm almost 600hrs in skyrim

and when guys released their first multiplayer mod like 6-8 years ago, this idea came to my mind

[worthy yarrow]

I think this is one of the best things you can do, randomly induced events

[fluid river]

yeah like some random town decides to start a war because of circumstances which are not fully controlled by the player

[worthy yarrow]

Exactly

Things that seem external from the players current obj

[fluid river]

well now you get what i wanna do

[worthy yarrow]

Yes I believe I am understanding the goal

Be sure to include me in the alpha

and beta for that matter

[fluid river]

yeah i'm currently adding devkit and mod support

[worthy yarrow]

How much of the foundation is done?

[fluid river]

so well, i guess this week i would have working map for multiplayer

[fluid river]

for the goal i want to achieve, which is a pure preview(only several quests and small locations), i guess like 15%

[worthy yarrow]

Not bad

[fluid river]

i need to make devkit extra powerful

[worthy yarrow]

How's the world generation?

[fluid river]

well, it's using cell(chunk) system

basically when you get to play, game spawns grid of 5x5 cells around you with events happening

[worthy yarrow]

So essentially you're using mc framework for the I guess what you could call backbone?

[fluid river]

nah, it's independant of mc

and not blocky

[worthy yarrow]

I know that, just in the idea of their multiplayer impl / world generation / etc?

Not that cell system isn't common

[fluid river]

rn the multiplayer impl is just udp and tcp for establishing the connection

so when host hits Play, he and his lobby-mates are getting loaded into the game

[proven musk]

hold on

[fluid river]

for new save at least

i haven't made fine save system yet

[proven musk]

is the Player object only for the spawned player? Does it go away when they leave and go back?

[fluid river]

yup, player dies when you leave

[worthy yarrow]

So before entering a game/save, the host has to "party" up with the other group members?

[fluid river]

or you mean in my game

[proven musk]

so I should store data in playerprofile

[fluid river]

yes

[proven musk]

in mine

[fluid river]

like in for the king

you create base lobby settings like difficulty and other stuff

[proven musk]

er

that doesn't work

[fluid river]

then you call your friends on discord

and invite to lobby

[proven musk]

how do I store data for a specific player

[worthy yarrow]

PlayerData should be stored/gathered on their join

Uh

[fluid river]

modifying the world .dat i guess

it's moved to playerdat now tho

[proven musk]

sounds overcomplicated

[fluid river]

when all guys are ready host hits play and game creates a new multiplayer world with first save

[proven musk]

PDC is supposed to save it when the server restarts... right?

[worthy yarrow]

pdc is saved when pdc is applied iirc

[fluid river]

yeah, but you can't store a pdc on disconnected player afair

[proven musk]

damn

how would I do that

[fluid river]

what are you trying to do

[worthy yarrow]

You cant?

[proven musk]

I just want to store a few stats

honestly

nothing crazy here

[fluid river]

yeah i once made a marriage plugin and encountered that

but it was long ago

[worthy yarrow]

I mean flat file would probably work fine for this matter then

[proven musk]

that also seems overcomplicated

[fluid river]

then save them when player is in the game

[proven musk]

like I might as well jsut store it in scoreboard

[fluid river]

which stats are you counting?

[worthy yarrow]

Store/save can mean a lot of things

[proven musk]

players have a certain number of soul points

I just wanna store how many they have

[fluid river]

here it spawns guys somewhere and lets them create characters with race, skintone, gender, name and other stuff

and when all guys are ready, game starts and lets them walk and do stuff

[worthy yarrow]

The spawns are random for all players right?

[fluid river]

rn no

they all do spawn in a small room

this part is not done yet

[worthy yarrow]

Well if you're doing a square shaped map, would the best approach be 4 corner spawnpoints?

[fluid river]

sure why not

i can also probably have predefined spawn locations

like in some beautiful places

scattered across the map

[worthy yarrow]

I'd assume so in the sense the map is squared, however you could do randomized spawnpoints based on a quandrant as it were

[fluid river]

also base spawnpoint on race player picked

[worthy yarrow]

Ooo thats cool

[fluid river]

tho races are pure text rn

they don't do anything

don't even change appearance since players rn are just capsules

[worthy yarrow]

Right

In the theme of races, are they primarily humanoid types?

[fluid river]

If i'm allowed to steal, i can probably have the lizard, catman and smth similar

as well as humans like black and white since one race is from desert and second from mountains

[worthy yarrow]

Or perhaps og star trek races :p

[fluid river]

you can add them with mods

when devkit is done of course

[worthy yarrow]

Oh so that's how powerful you want the kit to be

that's nice

[fluid river]

well, base game is literally empty with tons of scripts attached

[worthy yarrow]

Sure sure, but that's where it starts eh?

[fluid river]

yeah

base game assets are all packaged until game starts up

so firstly i unpack default "records" which are like object datas

model records, texture records, worldspaces and cells records and so on

then modloader comes in play overriding records or adding new ones depending on installed mods

and then you get to main menu

[worthy yarrow]

Whats the primary language?

[fluid river]

c#, with tons of reflection in order to provide an api

since it's c#, i use .dlls

not jars

and well, i got rid of plugin.yml for plugin manager

[worthy yarrow]

Man if there's one thing I never want to get into... its c#

[fluid river]

it's literally java but with weird camel case and event keyword

myclass.DoShit()

i swear class.getDeclaredFields is doing the same thing

tho in c# it's type.getFields()

[worthy yarrow]

Yeah but imo java is more modern in the fact of I suppose "sctrictness"

Easier to manage as well since in the case of being so sctrict, it's almost hard to mess things up that bad

[fluid river]

And also c# is more into event handling

[worthy yarrow]

Well that's probably better for a game from scratch for sure

[fluid river]

well, i still declare tons of abstract stuff so i don't forget to override smth

[worthy yarrow]

I think that's just good practice tbf

[fluid river]

so well, along with mods which are just records-based shit

which is higly data-oriented

i also provide the plugin system

for runtime stuff on the server

here is where reflection comes to play

public class MyShitPlugin : DoTPlugin {

    public override string Name = "MyShitMod";
    // author
    // description
    // api-version
    // mod-version

    public override void OnEnable() {

    }

}```

[worthy yarrow]

I mean I understand why reflection is a thing buttttttt.... it just shouldn't be imo

[ivory sleet]

why not

[drowsy helm]

why?

[ivory sleet]

its a tool, good in the right scenario

[drowsy helm]

most serialization librarie would not exist if not for reflection

it's there for a reason

[worthy yarrow]

That's my point

[fluid river]

well, then how are you gonna load a plugin from jar if you don't have reflection

[worthy yarrow]

It's only ever used for niche purposes (in most cases) and I feel like there should be better or rather cleaner methods of doing so

[fluid river]

DoTPlugin plugin = assembly.CreateInstance("MainClass") as DoTPlugin;```

[drowsy helm]

this is not true at all

[worthy yarrow]

Maybe I just dont use reflection enough then

[fluid river]

well, you mostly never use it in minecraft development

[drowsy helm]

and what other 'cleaner' methods would there be?

[fluid river]

since bukkit guys created api for you

[worthy yarrow]

^

[fluid river]

but if there is no api, some random modder would spend a year messing with reflection, to bring it to you

[worthy yarrow]

I say niche in the fact most modern plugins have public api's

Hence the cleaner method of just using their api

[drowsy helm]

are you just talking in the case of spigot

[worthy yarrow]

Yes

[fluid river]

i guess even case of bukkit

[worthy yarrow]

Reflection is very powerful and useful, I just don't think it's very useful for spigot dev

[fluid river]

yeah same actually

well, afair for mobs stuff you need it

[drowsy helm]

if you mean that, yeah I thought oyu meant reflection is a bad thing as a whole

[fluid river]

like ai

[drowsy helm]

but either way even in plugin dev, theres still some cases where its needed

[worthy yarrow]

Oh no no, reflection is an amazing concept, like I said I just don't see the appeal for spigot dev... I see a lot of people using reflections for no reason

[fluid river]

well, generally it's more leg shot and pain in the ass than a solution 🙂

[worthy yarrow]

Well I think the proccess of making a good api just comes with time of that application being released

Ie: user input for better optimization

[fluid river]

well, i decided to start with modding(devkit), api and multiplayer and only after finishing these topics, move to creating locations, quests and npcs

Also using a devkit i made

alr good night guys

[worthy yarrow]

Take care!

[proven musk]

so what is the best way to store player data

people keep saying a config file

but idk what that means exactly

can you edit config files

[worthy yarrow]

Yes

Config file just means flat file unless specified as a config, ie: .yml file would be fine for storing that sort of data

config.yml (config) is just the name more or less a descriptor of whats contained within that .yml file

[proven musk]

I think imma just serialize it

[worthy yarrow]

serialize the data, then store it in a flat file. When needed, deserialize and take whatever data you need

[proven musk]

how would I get the filepath of the plugin folder

Plugin.getDataFolder().getPath() ?

[worthy yarrow]

 public static void saveKits(Map<String, Kit> kits, JavaPlugin plugin) {
        config = plugin.getConfig();

        config.createSection("kits");
        ConfigurationSection kitsSection = config.getConfigurationSection("kits");

        for (Map.Entry<String, Kit> entry : kits.entrySet()) {

Yes that works

But iirc that will return the path of the file not the path within the file

I may just be cooked

[proven musk]

hmm

well

it does say get data folder

[worthy yarrow]

Oh wait

[proven musk]

so if its not the data folder im gonna have a talk with whoever made that api

[worthy yarrow]

No I think I'm just cooked man

that should be fine

[inner mulch]

In hibernate, is it possible to somehow make the setters of an entity auto write to the db? (All the changes should be sent to the database automatically) Preferably asnyc? Maybe even just certain methods if possible?

[worthy yarrow]

You'd have to write out the async logic, otherwise I'm pretty sure the changes are persisted when the commit occurs

[inner mulch]

Im not using transactions currently only to save the objecg fully not while using its setters

Is there a different way?

[worthy yarrow]

mmm not that I am aware of unfortunately... might have to ask illusion or someone like that haha

[inner mulch]

some APIs have attached objects which are attached to the db and save auto

I wonder if hibernate has tjat

[worthy yarrow]

I'm pretty sure hibernate only process through main thread

So they probably wrote that logic out seperately?

[inner mulch]

Okay

[worthy yarrow]

I'd keep in mind the load you're trying to work with async as well... I've seen a couple of operations that absolutely cook the server

[inner mulch]

Yeah i usually dont write instantly to the db but there is some crucial stuff that should be saved instantly

[worthy yarrow]

Yeah just gotta be cautious with your session management, otherwise it's probably fine

[inner mulch]

You mean opening and closing?

[worthy yarrow]

Yes

[inner mulch]

I keep a singleton for every entity

[worthy yarrow]

Ah then you're good

[inner mulch]

So open on start close on stop

[worthy yarrow]

I'd certainly test it, but that sounds fine

[inner mulch]

Okay, thanks for you help

[worthy yarrow]

For sure! I hope it helped more than it didnt haha

how do i get a uuid thats persistent for a specific player

I tried just using the profile as a key but that didn't work so i dont think getting the uuid from that will
