[polar forge]

Can’t I do it like this?

[worthy yarrow]

jeez early for ya

or late maybe

[polar forge]

Edited

[eternal oxide]

no

you return null if there is no user

that method should always return a String even if LP bombs out

[worthy yarrow]

It's a String method hence it needs to always return a String value

[eternal oxide]

and you never translate the prefix

[polar forge]

This comes in the PlayerJoinEvent

[eternal oxide]

no

[polar forge]

Look at the code here

[eternal oxide]

you do this in the getFormattedName method, you have no use for teh player join event

all your code in the player join event is useless

all you need is your getFormattedName method and use it in your chat event

[polar forge]

So do I need to delete the playerjoinevent?

[worthy yarrow]

Hey elgarl if you've got any interest :p

[eternal oxide]

Spawning all at the same time looks bad

you shoudl space their spawnign out

[worthy yarrow]

yeah

[eternal oxide]

so it looks more random

[worthy yarrow]

I'm not sure how to do this

This is (somehow) my first time messing with particle effects

[eternal oxide]

they also have a verticle velocity when spawned

you should zero the y velocity

[worthy yarrow]

OH?

wish I knew that

[eternal oxide]

you can see them bounce up first before falling

[worthy yarrow]

It's kinda goofy right now considering I was just doing particles at the feet before

[eternal oxide]

the rain doesn;t look bad, but it's velocity is also off, same as the snow

[worthy yarrow]

Yeah if it was randomized it'd look better

[eternal oxide]

zero on x and z and try a negative y when spawning

you only want a slight random in the downward velocity on teh particle

no x and z movement

[rough drift]

no

setDisplayName accepts a null display name to reset

Egitto is correct here

[worthy yarrow]

player.spawnParticle(SeasonsList.Seasons.WINTER.getParticleEffect(), player.getLocation().getX(), y, player.getLocation().getZ(), 512, 0, -1, 0);
Like this?

[eternal oxide]

No, he should not be setting Display name at all

[worthy yarrow]

Or the other way around?

[eternal oxide]

he's creating a chat formatting plugin. he shoudl not be going anywhere near display name

[eternal oxide]

give it a try

[worthy yarrow]

lets find out haha

https://gyazo.com/604a6ce0263813126b22cfd31121be52
Well that's not what we wanted lol

[eternal oxide]

lol nope

I thought you were spawning individuals

not lots just spread out

[worthy yarrow]

I'm pretty sure the values I changed were not velocity rather density

[eternal oxide]

they are the random position across x/z

[worthy yarrow]

right

[eternal oxide]

I thought you were doign individual particles not 512 with random location

you will not get it to look any better using a single emitter

[worthy yarrow]

hmm

So then should I redesign the runnable as well as the particle spawning method to handle individual particle spawns to try and get it looking better?

[eternal oxide]

if it was me I would

however, doesn;t MC already have rain and snow?

[worthy yarrow]

It's just world#hasStorm/setStorm

rain/snow dependant on player location; temperature

[eternal oxide]

yep

[worthy yarrow]

Also custom effects are cooler

[eternal oxide]

I guess you don;t want that

[worthy yarrow]

Individual particle spawns sound difficult in the way I'm trying to...

Should I define a region of sorts around the player for the particles to randomly spawn in?

[eternal oxide]

I'd define a radius

[worthy yarrow]

gotcha

And the runnable, how frequently should this be ran to handle the random spawning

perhaps just have to test and figure something out?

[eternal oxide]

however fast it needs to look good 🙂

[worthy yarrow]

Yep figured that haha

Also can / should I do this async?

[eternal oxide]

more emitters per tick to make the rain heavier

you could do it async if you swith to packets

actually, try it async as particles literally just send a packet

[worthy yarrow]

That was what I thought so

Is there more manipulation to be done to the particles given I switch to packets?

[eternal oxide]

no

[worthy yarrow]

damn that sucks

It'd be cool to change the color of particles

[valid burrow]

would require custom texturepacks

[worthy yarrow]

gross

[valid burrow]

mhm

[eternal oxide]

it depends on teh particle

some you can color

[valid burrow]

you can color some if they already exist in different colors

but u cant create colours that do not exist in the base game

[eternal oxide]

nope

[worthy yarrow]

Hmm well that's disappointing

Alright so final notes are basically:

Define a radius around the player,

Handle individual particle spawns,

And update runnables to make the particles look good

Oh hey do you guys have any suggestions for custom effects applied to players when a specific season is active?

[lean arrow]

When instantiating a new WorldCreator is it possible to set a size of the world? I know you can set a world border but that still generates the chunks outside of the border and I'm using the World#vanillaBiomeProvider() to get the BiomeProvider but then because that can detect biomes in ungenerated chunks, it means that it can detect biomes outside of the world border, which I don't want. The goal I'm trying to achieve is find the nearest biomes.

I was previously using World#locateNearestBiome() and iterating through a list of biomes, but that's not particularly optimised.

[cinder abyss]

Hello, how can I get the total available modificable surface using LimitedRegion#getBuffer?

because for 48*48 it returns 16, so do I need to multiply by 3 or something like that?

[eternal oxide]

(getBuffer * 2) + 15

[cinder abyss]

okayyy thanks 😄

[sullen marlin]

• 16 I thjink

and square it for area

[cinder abyss]

hmm

[eternal oxide]

15 as zero indexed

[cinder abyss]

it's from 0-15 yeah

so idk

[sullen marlin]

oh, you dont actually mean area

[cinder abyss]

in x and in z basically

[sullen marlin]

as in the unit, you mean area as in the region

[cinder abyss]

yeah

a random coordinate between the min available and the max available in x and z

[cinder abyss]

is it good or did I miss something?
https://paste.md-5.net/votorefohe.java

should I use a minus before the rest for the low in randomBtw?

[eternal oxide]

no

why are you multiplying by 3?

the buffer is a value added to either side of the chunk

I do not understand your line 8

if you are spawning somethign or setting a Block in a populator you shoudl not use teh buffer at all, unless you are creating a multi block structure

[cinder abyss]

oh yeah I forgot to edit this line

so between 0 and buffer?

[polar forge]

You forgot here at the end of the if statement a {} or ;

Which one do I need to use?

[eternal oxide]

I didn;t forget anything, its a split line conditional

[cinder abyss]

@eternal oxide like this?
https://paste.md-5.net/pulasoxuce.java

[eternal oxide]

yes

[rapid vigil]

why do you put ; instead of '

[eternal oxide]

age

[cinder abyss]

oh no wait

[eternal oxide]

littel finger is too bent to reach ' reliably

[cinder abyss]

now?

I forgot to put *16 so it was returning the chunk coordinate

not the coordinate of the first pos of the chunk

[rapid vigil]

okay then why do you put little instead of littel 😜

[remote swallow]

typing too quick

[eternal oxide]

age, brain is too old to keep my fingers in sequence 😛

[rapid vigil]

okay :>

[polar forge]

Still doesn’t work

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

I still see a white username

[icy beacon]

how old are you

[eternal oxide]

lets just say, I remember the 60's

[cinder abyss]

you travelled in time??

[icy beacon]

I cannot tell if you are being sarcastic 😳

[cinder abyss]

true

[eternal oxide]

Nope. I remember punch cards to program.

[rough drift]

Elgar it's not the 1980s anymore

[cinder abyss]

can you tell a pretty famous band from this period? (about rock)

[icy beacon]

Please, no spigot developer is over 40 years old

Well frostalf and alex are two exceptions, they are like 80 at this point

[cinder abyss]

🤣

[sullen marlin]

Elgar is 😉

[eternal oxide]

alex is a baby though.

[rough drift]

Elgar is over 40????

[icy beacon]

I find that insanely hard to believe for some reason

[polar forge]

Bruh

[cinder abyss]

he's my dad..

[eternal oxide]

you can almost add another 20 years on that

[rough drift]

there is no shot

[cinder abyss]

no way

incredible

[icy beacon]

If I find one message of yours containing gen-z slang, all your claims are void

[sullen marlin]

I can vouch for him

[rough drift]

oh wait isn't md ancient

no offense

[cinder abyss]

he's older than 29th June 2012

[rough drift]

yes that is

obvious

[eternal oxide]

lol, I had paid my mortgage by then 🙂

[rough drift]

slight smile is such a

[icy beacon]

md joined discord in 2016, subtract 13 years so that he's of legal age to have joined discord at that period of time, means he was born at least in 2003

[rough drift]

specific emoji

[polar forge]

Any solutions for this?

[rough drift]

he's at least 30

[icy beacon]

Prove it

[sullen marlin]

how do you know I didn't cheat discord

[icy beacon]

I know I did

[rough drift]

he said it some time iirc

[cinder abyss]

because you're a cube.

[rough drift]

what's wrong here

[polar forge]

I still see my name white

And not with the LuckPerms prefix &c

[eternal oxide]

you are not actually using the method. you need yoru async chat

[polar forge]

AsyncPlayerChatEvent?

[eternal oxide]

yes

[remote swallow]

istg if the next paste i see has that method inside async chat event im gonna scream

[polar forge]

Why lol

[remote swallow]

because its a basic issue that you should know how to resolve before starting spigot

[cinder abyss]

after some research and years of learning in speaking in english and walking, I came to this conclusion and I think there is something wrong, any idea?
https://paste.md-5.net/ukirotugow.java

[eternal oxide]

add your chat event to https://paste.md-5.net/uwamoragag.java

[polar forge]

Sure

[eternal oxide]

ok because you ned to subtract getBuffer

[polar forge]

But what should I write in my chat event?

[cinder abyss]

Substract it with what?

[remote swallow]

use setFormat

[eternal oxide]

(getLimitedRegion().getBuffer() * 2) + 15 - getLimitedRegion().getBuffer()

that will give you relative coord

[icy beacon]

I've gone through the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Generation_Z_slang and confirmed that ElgarL does not in fact use gen z slang except for a "bruh" from time to time

[eternal oxide]

haha you been searching

[remote swallow]

did you find where he said he might even be a grandad

[icy beacon]

Additionally he says this a couple of times

[icy beacon]

🌞

I guess I believe him now lol

I'll go do my homework I have 36 minutes before the lesson starts

[eternal oxide]

Great grandad

[remote swallow]

when did that happen

[rough drift]

why are you here then

[eternal oxide]

shoudl I be in a home?

[rough drift]

no like

why

what's your motive

[remote swallow]

he wants to stay hip with the kids

[cinder abyss]

Okay thanks

[polar forge]

Was this referred to me?

[echo basalt]

elgar when you perish can I have your retirement fund

[remote swallow]

yes

[echo basalt]

.<

[rough drift]

wow

[cinder abyss]

Of first pos I think

[eternal oxide]

I plan to go out with a bang and spend every penny I have 🙂

hookers and blow

[quiet ice]

🙂 indeed

[remote swallow]

elgarl whats your favourite supermarket

[eternal oxide]

Being old I hate them all.

[cinder abyss]

Lol

[remote swallow]

you seem like a holland and barret kinda person

[cinder abyss]

You prefer the first farmer in your area?

[eternal oxide]

UK here so no first farmer

I'm assuming thats a store name.

[cinder abyss]

And no gastronomy?

:)

he would never help me anymore after what I've said

[cinder abyss]

No that's a joke, I ate a British meal this week and it was really good

[polar forge]

So I wrote

[eternal oxide]

this is slightly wrong. the range is -getBuffer to (15 + getBuffer) So a total of (getBuffer * 2) + 15

[cinder abyss]

A shepherd's pie

[cinder abyss]

Okay I see thanks 😄

I'll try that after eating

[polar forge]

public void ChatEvent(AsyncPlayerChatEvent event) { String format = event.setFormat(); }
What should come inside the brackets of setFormat?

[eternal oxide]

you shoudl getFormat() then replace what you need

[rapid vigil]

you forgot the annotation also follow java conventions :p

[vast ledge]

Don't usually use that

[eternal oxide]

then setFormat

[vast ledge]

Just set the message

[remote swallow]

setting format is better

[polar forge]

They told me to use it

[remote swallow]

setting the message can cause issues from other plugins modifying

[eternal oxide]

however as you are just cancelign the event and sending yrou own chat you don;t need getFormat/setFormat

[vast ledge]

Rly, isn't it easier to just set it yourself?

[remote swallow]

you can still set it urself

on format

[polar forge]

I don’t even know what to write inside the AsyncPlayerChatEvent

[vast ledge]

What do ,out want to achieve?

You**

[polar forge]

The username is still white

Even tho I’m in a LuckPerms group where I have a prefix of &c

[vast ledge]

That's the join message

Oh

That

You need to use the prefix/apply it

[eternal oxide]

something likejava String format = event.getFormat(); format = format.replace("%1", getFormattedName(event.getPlayer())); event.setFormat(format);

[polar forge]

https://paste.md-5.net/uwamoragag.java Elgarl gave me this code, and I should add to it an AsyncPlayerChatEvent

[vast ledge]

Yea

You're only returning play name there

[eternal oxide]

he returns in his if nest

[vast ledge]

prefix + player.getDisplayName is what you have to return

[vast ledge]

Oh

Didn't see that

[remote swallow]

avoid that

some weird plugins (essentials) likes to modify display name and might add the prefix to that and it then breaks

[polar forge]

What does the %1 represent?

[vast ledge]

Didn't think of that

[eternal oxide]

thats where MC would normally place the player name

[rapid vigil]

Why do you think Essentials is weird?

[remote swallow]

essentials just is

[polar forge]

Oh ok

[eternal oxide]

it might be %1s I forget

try it and see

[rapid vigil]

aka ?tas

[vast ledge]

You could also cancel the event and then just send Bukkit.getPlayers().for each(player -> player.sendMessage(getPlayerName() + ": " + event.getMessage()));

[eternal oxide]

he was

originally

[vast ledge]

And that didn't work?

[eternal oxide]

it did but the rest of his code was broken so he still had no prefix 🙂

[vast ledge]

Ah

[vast ledge]

I'm surprised I managed to remember that

Lambda is epic tho

[eternal oxide]

may as well broadcast if sending to all

[vast ledge]

True

[polar forge]

So

Here’s the final code

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

Is this right?

[eternal oxide]

add @Eventhandler

needs tha annotation

[polar forge]

Ok added before ChatEvent

Should I try and see?

[eternal oxide]

?tas

[undone axle]

https://tryitands.ee/

[polar forge]

Ok Boss

And no

It doesn’t work

Still white username

[eternal oxide]

are you sure you replaced the jar on your server?

[polar forge]

Yes

Why is it such a difficult plugin to make

[eternal oxide]

print the getFormat

so you can see what it is originally

[rapid vigil]

It's not at all, you just know absolutely nothing about java

[eternal oxide]

it may just be %s not %1s

[polar forge]

So instead of %1 I should write %s?

[eternal oxide]

its been so long since I played with chat formatting

yes

[polar forge]

So this might be the problem why it doesn’t work

Is it possible that the problem is cause by the other classes?

[eternal oxide]

no

[polar forge]

Im learning

Ok so

AAAAAH

no still nothing

Doesn’t work

[eternal oxide]

print the result of getFormat

The correct format to replace is %1$s

[cinder abyss]

okay thanks, so I came to that conclusion, it's now time to try and SEEE

[eternal oxide]

I knew is was something close

[polar forge]

So it wasn’t %s but %1$s?

[eternal oxide]

yes

[polar forge]

How would u do that? And where should I write it?

[rapid vigil]

._.

[eternal oxide]

no need now, just use that string

[cinder abyss]

...

[polar forge]

Ok ill write %1$s

Im testing it now

Let’s see…

Nop still doesn’t work

[eternal oxide]

show code

[polar forge]

All the plugin or only chat listener?

[eternal oxide]

just chat

[polar forge]

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

[cinder abyss]

@eternal oxide, I get a "Bound must be positive" exception, logical when using nextInt, so, should I use another method to generate a random or is there a trick?
https://paste.md-5.net/noxaribozu.java

[eternal oxide]

that looks fine

What does it look like in game

[eternal oxide]

you shoudl be using the max value when getting a random, then minus the buffer to adjust it

[polar forge]

Like this

[cinder abyss]

okay thanks

[polar forge]

White username instead of my prefix

[eternal oxide]

do you register your listener?

[polar forge]

Yes in my main class

[eternal oxide]

then I can only guess you didn;t update teh jar on your server

the code is fine

you are doing something wrong when updating your server

stop the server before changing the jar

[polar forge]

That’s what I do

Wanna try the file then?

[cinder abyss]

74, 75... 🎶

[eternal oxide]

drop the file in here

[polar forge]

Ill build it one more time

To make sure

[eternal oxide]

Spigot builds on SnakeYaml

[rough drift]

^

[polar forge]

Just to be sure, should be there a space here

In between package and name?

[eternal oxide]

makes no difference

[polar forge]

Here is it

[rough drift]

why would you

send it

[polar forge]

Elgarl asked for it

[eternal oxide]

I told him to

[rapid vigil]

how is it 950 KB?

[cinder abyss]

came to that, let's try

[polar forge]

Is it a lot?

[lilac dagger]

yes

[rapid vigil]

yes

[polar forge]

Idk I also tested it as it was

[lilac dagger]

you've compiled kyori

and the intellij annotations

[river oracle]

Shading Kyori is fine

[eternal oxide]

you have two HoverListeners

[river oracle]

Exclude the annotations tho

[polar forge]

Where

[eternal oxide]

delete the one in the root

keep the one in the listeners package

[river oracle]

Jar size doesn't matter unless you're dead set on uploading to spigot then you need to be under 5mbs

[polar forge]

Which one

[rapid vigil]

Why did they set a limit

[river oracle]

Costs money for storage

Believe it or not

[rapid vigil]

ooh so they're stingy

[eternal oxide]

oh nm, I'm reading it wrong

[river oracle]

You're getting a free service though you have 0 room to complain

[rapid vigil]

HAHAHA yeah

[polar forge]

Does it work with u?

[eternal oxide]

but thats your issue, you are cancelling the chat event in your HoverListener

[polar forge]

So what’s the solution?

[eternal oxide]

don;t cancel

[vast ledge]

Just modify the message

[eternal oxide]

you are preventing the listener from running that sets your prefix

[polar forge]

So I should setCancelled False?

[eternal oxide]

no

just don;t cancel

default is false

[polar forge]

Just delete event.setCancelled(true);?

[eternal oxide]

yes, and instead setMessage

[polar forge]

I should delete this line?

So

event.setMessage(true);

[rapid vigil]

Exactly!

[eternal oxide]

event.setMessage((BaseComponent) comp);

[polar forge]

In hover listener

Sure

[eternal oxide]

delete all the for loop sending the message

delete setCancelled

[polar forge]

Which?

[eternal oxide]

just use event.setMessage

Delete all

instead event.setMessage((BaseComponent) comp);

[polar forge]

I get an error

Wait I’m sending screenshot

[eternal oxide]

ah text only

[polar forge]

Wrong import?

Should I ignore it?

[eternal oxide]

no

[polar forge]

And what’s the solution to this error?

[hearty moat]

Uhm I am trying to save player stats to a YML file, such as their kills, their bounty and their name. This is my main class (pay attetion to the last EventHandler):
https://paste.md-5.net/izawuvakuf.cs
And this is the PlayerDataHandler which is responsible for saving these stats to a file:
https://paste.md-5.net/ceguhotisi.cpp
However, when I kill someone, the plugin doesn't create any file on its folder as it should. Am I missing something?

[rapid vigil]

he just said

[eternal oxide]

good question. I've not used hover events

[polar forge]

Text only? Wdym

[eternal oxide]

you can;t use setMessage as it only accepts a String

the only way to send with components is to use sendMessage

[polar forge]

So event.sendMessage((BaseComponent)comp);?

[eternal oxide]

no

you are being a pain as you are doing hover and format in the same event in different listeners

[orchid trout]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/config-files/#using-custom-configurations

[polar forge]

How do I divide them then?

[eternal oxide]

you actually need to combine them

[polar forge]

Combine the listeners?

[hearty moat]

I'll check it out, thank you!

[eternal oxide]

yes

[polar forge]

Ok ill copy paste and let’s see what I get

[eternal oxide]

when using Components you can;t apply them back to the AsyncChatEvent

so you do have to cancel and send the formatted message yourself

[echo basalt]

isn't AsyncChatEvent paper

And I'm pretty sure you can

the method's just poorly named

[eternal oxide]

not in Spigot

[young knoll]

AsyncChatEvent is paper

[eternal oxide]

He's using AsyncPlayerChatEvent

[young knoll]

AsyncPlayerChatEvent is spigot

[eternal oxide]

Which is Spigot

so no Component support

[polar forge]

Omg it’s so difficult to put them together

[eternal oxide]

nah it's quite simple

[polar forge]

I get errors if I put them together

Put this remove this import this

[eternal oxide]

yeah its likely beyond your level of java

[polar forge]

Nah it’s not that, it’s just I’m scared I break something

[eternal oxide]

breakign is good, best way to learn

[rapid vigil]

bro it took you this long to realize?
This entire project is beyond it

[eternal oxide]

it is

he's trying though

[rapid vigil]

He should apply that in learning java instead imo

[polar forge]

So like this?

[grim hound]

What packets does bungeecord send to inform the player about a server change?

[polar forge]

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

I get 2 errors

The same error as before

And

[eternal oxide]

one sec

[polar forge]

plugin might have not been initialised

[eternal oxide]

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

take a look at that

a single chat event

using your code

but the formatted name I showed you

[polar forge]

Should this be in the HoverListener or in an part listener class?

[eternal oxide]

chat listener

scrap your hover listener

[polar forge]

Should I delete it?

No ok

I understood

But

What should i do with the event.setMessage?

[eternal oxide]

I haven't checked any of that hover code so I'm assuming its working

nothing

I literally gave you the whole method

[polar forge]

Yes

[valid burrow]

You are infact not. You have yet to discover the difference between a string and an integer. If you wouldve done yet so much to watch a simple video for first time coders that would already have doubled the knowledge you contain about java

[polar forge]

Should I delete the ChatListener?

[eternal oxide]

keep the one that has teh getFormattedName

delete the other

[polar forge]

What the other

I have ChatListener, here is where I coded the get formatted, HoverListener, and now ChatEvent

[eternal oxide]

what?

the jar you sent me has two listeners

delete teh HoverListener

[polar forge]

HoverListener? But then I’ll not have hovermessages

If I hover on top of an username

[eternal oxide]

I give up https://paste.md-5.net/oxukokivad.java That is ALL you need

[polar forge]

Should I then keep the HoverListener?

[eternal oxide]

no

[polar forge]

Does it get prefixes from LuckPerms?

[eternal oxide]

?tas

[undone axle]

https://tryitands.ee/

[polar forge]

Why do I get this error

I don’t understand I’m registering it

[eternal oxide]

check yoru import in ChatListener

its still set as JavaPlugin probably

[valid burrow]

this needs to be Plugin not JavaPlugin

[eternal oxide]

I sent the correct code so its just your imports

ah that needs to be HoverInfo not JavaPlugin

[polar forge]

True lol

Forgot

[valid burrow]

or HoverInfo

both works

[eternal oxide]

has to be HoverInfo as he has a method in there for getLP

[glad prawn]

registerEvents take 2 params btw

[valid burrow]

ah yeah i see

[valid burrow]

also true

registerEvents(new ChatListener(this), this);

[polar forge]

So like this

[eternal oxide]

yes

[valid burrow]

yea

[polar forge]

Let’s try it

I would say, it works

Thanks, but I got a problem

If I’m an user, I don’t have any prefixes so it’s null

And it can’t be translated

[eternal oxide]

then add a check for null before teh translate

just do if (prefix == null) prefix = "";

before the translate

can getPrefix() in LP return null?

[polar forge]

Is that a question?

[eternal oxide]

I don;t use LP so no idea if that method can return null

[polar forge]

@rapid vigil is a master in LP

[echo basalt]

[eternal oxide]

github says it can be null

odd choice

[polar forge]

Should I just write this one?

[grim hound]

.

[echo basalt]

great question

[lilac dagger]

It's not a packet

It's a plugin message

[echo basalt]

Uh no

[lilac dagger]

Listen to incoming bungeecord messages

[echo basalt]

That's a completely different question

[grim hound]

No

Not what I'm asking here

[lilac dagger]

Ah nvm

You can look at the api

[grim hound]

I wanted to see source code where the events are instantiated but my intellij refuses to search library files

[eternal oxide]

?stash

[undone axle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/

[grim hound]

It just claims "No usages in All Places"

[eternal oxide]

no bungee

[echo basalt]

https://github.com/SpigotMC/BungeeCord/blob/master/proxy/src/main/java/net/md_5/bungee/ServerConnector.java

It's a little complex

In short the client's always in a "play" state

But the handshake process is copied, send to the original server up until the login phase, bossbars are removed etc

[grim hound]

What about encryption

[echo basalt]

Given we're using the original handshake I'm pretty sure packets should be encrypted the same way

[grim hound]

Since this just means Handshake and LoginInStart were copied

[grim hound]

I mean encryption begin

Packet

[echo basalt]

Isn't that part of the handshake

nvm I'm a clown and don't know how the encryption part works

[slender elbow]

afaik there is no encryption between the server and the proxy

[echo basalt]

Yeah prob not

Proxy <-> Client is encrypted

[slender elbow]

yes

[echo basalt]

Backend <-> Proxy is not

[cinder abyss]

Hello, I get a "Bound must be positive" exception when chunkCoordinateType is <= 0, how can I fix that please?
https://paste.md-5.net/ezapopudog.java

[eternal oxide]

if you are using chunk relative its 0-15

[cinder abyss]

I'm using buffer relative, but well I don't understand how to make it works

[eternal oxide]

if its a Limited region with buffer then its world relative

[grim hound]

No

[cinder abyss]

I want the first pos usable, and the last one

relative to the world

using getBuffer

[eternal oxide]

usable wher?

[grim hound]

https://wiki.vg/Protocol#Encryption_Request

[eternal oxide]

in the limited region?

[cinder abyss]

yeah

[eternal oxide]

show how you are accessing the region

[cinder abyss]

using populate in BlockPopulator

[eternal oxide]

then you should not be going anywhere near teh buffer

you should stay within the chunk

[cinder abyss]

so, buffer and chunk are the same?

[eternal oxide]

no

[cinder abyss]

(here is my entire code logic if you want https://paste.md-5.net/oqipaponic.java)

[eternal oxide]

then chunkj is the "chunk" you are populating. The buffer is a measurement of distance around the chunk which "shoudl" be loaded and available if you need to create a structure outside the chunk boundaries

[cinder abyss]

okay so it's what I understood

[grim hound]

@echo basalt https://wiki.vg/Protocol_Encryption this is the verification scheme

[eternal oxide]

Yeah you are just populating blocks, so 0 to 15

[grim hound]

Are only the two packets from here copied and sent?

[cinder abyss]

like this?java return randomBtw(chunkCoordinateType*limitedRegion.getBuffer(), (chunkCoordinateType*limitedRegion.getBuffer())+15);

[eternal oxide]

no

[grim hound]

Handshake and LoginInStart

[eternal oxide]

just 0 to 15

[cinder abyss]

but that's relative to the chunk?

not world-relative?

[eternal oxide]

yes, you add that to the chunk *16

[cinder abyss]

and I'll get the entire distance around the chunk which should be loaded and available?

[eternal oxide]

it gets you world relative coords

[cinder abyss]

humm okay

so

return randomBtw(0, 15)*16;```
?

[eternal oxide]

no

[cinder abyss]

😭

[eternal oxide]

ChunkX * 16 + random (16)

[cinder abyss]

oh okay thanks

sooo

return chunkCoordinateType*16 + randomBtw(0, 15);```
?

[eternal oxide]

well 0, 15 in your code

yep

[cinder abyss]

perfect

so, I can merge those two?

[eternal oxide]

if your type is a X/Z chunk value

[cinder abyss]

logically?

[cinder abyss]

yeah it is

[eternal oxide]

then yes

[cinder abyss]

okay

so it will always use the buffer?

[eternal oxide]

no]

[cinder abyss]

I don't understand how I can use the buffer in this method if it is not mentionned

[eternal oxide]

ignore there is a buffer

[cinder abyss]

okay

[eternal oxide]

the only part you populate is the chunk itself

as you are placing rocks you do not need the buffer

[cinder abyss]

it's for future structure that might be biggers

[eternal oxide]

when you get to structures come back and ask 🙂

[cinder abyss]

I can also remove my RandomType enum?

[eternal oxide]

yes

[cinder abyss]

okay perfect thank you

[sand spire]

Is there a method to stop a player from having their hand/shield raised? Right now I'm removing the shield and giving it back but that seems over the top https://pastes.dev/OuPKHDPfze

[vast ledge]

Player Interact, check if #isBlocking()

[sand spire]

PlayerInteractEvent only triggers once on rightclick, not while holding down

[slender elbow]

set a very high cooldown on the shield :^)

[vast ledge]

Yea, you only need to check once

disarm the shield when its clicked

[sand spire]

I want to disarm when I hit the player with a custom attack, I can give the shield a cooldown and play the sound but the shield stays up with a cooldown if you don't release your mouse

[sand spire]

uhh sure player.setCooldown(Material.SHIELD, Integer.MAX_VALUE);

[slender elbow]

i mean the game does set a cooldown when you do a hit with the axe while they're blocking

to prevent it from being used

that's kinda the intended way

[sand spire]

yeah, I want to do the same but for my own attack

[slender elbow]

yeah, so, set the cooldown

to however much you want

[sand spire]

yeah that works, but the shield stays up in "blocking mode" so if you don't release your mouse it doesn't matter

in vanilla when you get hit with an axe the shield gets a cooldown AND goes down

I want to recreate that

and I was wondering if there is a method to 'unraise' the players hand

[eternal oxide]

possibly set swimming twice

forcing them to any animation wher the shield drops even if only for 1 tick

player.setSwimming(!player.isSwimming())

twice

[sand spire]

I'll give this a try thanks

[eternal oxide]

or

have you tried setItemInUseTicks

no idea if it would work on a shield but try setting to 0 or 1

[sand spire]

setItemInUseTicks(int)' is deprecated since version 1.20.4 and marked for removal

[eternal oxide]

not in spigot

[sand spire]

it is in my IDE

[slender elbow]

minecraft calls stopUsingItem(), i don't think spigot has api for that

but a certain downstream fork does

[eternal oxide]

You are not using spigot

[sand spire]

I'm using bukkit spigot and paper together

[eternal oxide]

it may be deprecated in paper. Its not in Spigot

everythign is deprecated in paper

[sand spire]

oh you're right, weird I can't choose between using the paper and spigot method

[slender elbow]

yes you can?

the choice is yours

[sand spire]

for most methods and classes I can choose between spigot paper and bukkit but the paper overwrites the spigot one so as long as I have paper API i probably can't

[slender elbow]

that won't work, shields don't really have a "remaining use time", as opposed to e.g. potions, there is some extra logic the server runs to force the shield down (in n.m.w.e.LivingEntity#stopUsingItem())

[slender elbow]

wdym "overwrites"?

the spigot api is still there

[sand spire]

This is when I have paper API

And this is when I remove the API from my pom

[slender elbow]

sure?

the method is right there

you can 100% use it

[sand spire]

its both org.bukkit.entity.LivingEntity

[sand spire]

marked for removal methods give errors for me

deprecated gives warning

[slender elbow]

sure but the method is the same and works on spigot

that is a spigot method

[sand spire]

yeah but I can't compile with an error

[slender elbow]

a warning is not an error

[sand spire]

red is an error, yellow is a warning. Deprecated gives a warning, marked for removal gives an error

[slender elbow]

it's red in your ide because it's deprecated for removal

javac will compile it fine

it will warn you, but it will compile

the fact it's red is your ide configuration

[eternal oxide]

You are depending on paper in your pom

[sand spire]

oh you're right, I thought compile would always fail if I had an error

[eternal oxide]

you could even add teh spigot dependency above the paper dependency

[slender elbow]

it does compile if you have an error

but that is not an error

[eternal oxide]

then you'd have both API and still be able to support paper, without crazy warnings

[sand spire]

IntelliJ is very confusing then

[icy beacon]

IDE error != compile time error (sometimes)

Most often it is but you can configure anything to be an IDE error

And you can disable the checks altogether

Javac will not care about your ide warning preferences

[sand spire]

welp java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 'void org.bukkit.entity.Player.setItemInUseTicks(int)

it doesn't work anyway so it's fine I'll try something else

[icy beacon]

Must be a version mismatch

[slender elbow]

that method is fairly recent, yes

[sand spire]

well I am on 1.20.4 and it says deprecated since 1.20.4 so

[slender elbow]

it was added in mid-1.20.4

like, a few weeks ago

[icy beacon]

If paper devs got a dollar for every time they've deprecated a method they'd be swimming in money

[slender elbow]

, run buildtools and get the latest 1.20.4 build

that method works on spigot if you're running the version it was added in

in the versions it didn't exist it won't work because it didn't exist

[sand spire]

idk how to run buildtools but it doesn't matter cause what I need is a stopUsingItem() method but it probably doesn't exist

Hello I trying to update an item inside a player inventory but I don't find a solution can you help me ?

Current code:

            if(player.getInventory().getItemInMainHand().equals(countablePickaxe())){

                ItemStack itemStack = countablePickaxe();
                ItemMeta itemMeta = itemStack.getItemMeta();

                for(int i = 0; i < itemMeta.lore().size(); i++){
                    List<Component> lore = itemStack.lore();
                    if(lore.get(i).toString().contains("§fNombre de blocs cassé:")){
                        int utilisation = Integer.valueOf(String.valueOf((TextComponent) lore.get(0)).replaceAll("[^\\d]", ""));
                        lore.set(0, Component.text(((TextComponent) lore.get(0)).content().replaceAll("-?\\d+", utilisation + 1 + "")));
                        itemMeta.lore(lore);
                        itemStack.setItemMeta(itemMeta);
                        player.updateInventory();
                    }
                }


            }

[lilac dagger]

the lore might be a copy

you'll probably have to set it again

[chrome beacon]

also that's the Paper API

[eternal night]

Please do not store data in display names or lore

use the pdc

[chrome beacon]

You'll probably get better help in the Paper discord

[cursive loom]

Yep I know but I think that can be laggy cause that happen when I break a block with a pickaxe

[cursive loom]

what is that ?

[chrome beacon]

?pdc

[undone axle]

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

[lilac dagger]

why not reset the lore when needed

also pdc ^

[slender elbow]

i mean it's not like you have a choice, and it's not like getting the meta and getting the lore isn't expensive already lol

but, as pointed out, use pdc for storing custom data, not lore

[nova quail]

Hello! Why enchantment isn't adding to the item

    private ItemStack createEffectItem(Material material, String displayName, List<String> lore, String effect, Player player) {

        if (meta != null) {
            meta.setDisplayName(color(displayName));
            if (effect != null && effect.equals(getSelectedEffect(player))) {
                meta.setLore(lore.stream().map(Utils::color).collect(Collectors.toList()));
                itemStack.addUnsafeEnchantment(Enchantment.KNOCKBACK, 1);
            //    meta.addItemFlags(ItemFlag.HIDE_ENCHANTS);
            }
            itemStack.setItemMeta(meta);
        }
        return itemStack;
    }

[cursive loom]

okk thx 🙂

[slender elbow]

add the ehcnantment to the meta

not the itemstack

[nova quail]

oh, thanks

[worldly ingot]

Also, fun fact, fairly certain List has a replaceAll() method which you could use instead of a Stream

Obviously it mutates the List you pass in, but yeah

meta.setLore(lore.replaceAll(Utils::color))

[remote swallow]

im not sure thats a very fun fact

[worldly ingot]

I thought it was fun

I had fun writing it

[slender elbow]

this doesn't compile, replaceAll doesn't return the list 🤓

[austere cove]

functor application

[rough drift]

ah, is it multiple symbols or is it literally just <$>

[austere cove]

its the infix equivalent of fmap

[rough drift]

ah

flatmap I assume right

[austere cove]

flatmap is more like a monadic bind

[rough drift]

mhm I assumed because of fmap

flat map

[austere cove]

functor

[rough drift]

ah

I'm slow

[austere cove]

fmap :: (a -> b) -> f a -> f b

where a, b are types and f is a functor type
So for a list w elements of type a and a function a -> b, fmap returns a list w elements of type b

There are also other functors in the stdlib, like Maybe, Either etc

[lean arrow]

I found an alternative solution if anyone else ever has a similar problem to me:

val regionAccessor = world as RegionAccessor

        val foundBiomes: MutableSet<Biome> = mutableSetOf()
        val maxBiomes = 10

        var x = world.spawnLocation.blockX / 16
        var z = world.spawnLocation.blockZ / 16
        var dx = 0
        var dz = -1

        spiralLoop@ for (i in 0..(50 * 50)) {
            if (-50 / 2 < x && x <= 50 / 2 && -50 / 2 < z && z <= 50 / 2) {
                val chunkToBlockX = x * 16
                val chunkToBlockZ = z * 16
                val chunkBiome = regionAccessor.getBiome(chunkToBlockX, world.spawnLocation.blockY, chunkToBlockZ)
                if (foundBiomes.none { it.key == chunkBiome.key }) {
                    foundBiomes.add(chunkBiome)
                }
                if (foundBiomes.size >= maxBiomes) {
                    break@spiralLoop
                }
            }
            if (x == z || (x < 0 && x == -z) || (x > 0 && x == 1 - z)) {
                val temp = dx
                dx = -dz
                dz = temp
            }
            x += dx
            z += dz
        }

Hope this helps another dev sometime eventually!

[remote swallow]

ooooo kotlin

[lean arrow]

It might not be the best approach but it works in a subsecond timeframe so I'll take it!

[austere cove]

monadic bind is similar but not quite.

Say you have an optional type in Java, and you want to apply a function that also returns an optional. fmap would essentially get u an Optional<Optional<Type>>
A monadic bind does what you're looking for:

(>>=) :: m a -> (a -> m b) -> m b

also functors and applicative types can be defined by monad application:

fmap f x = x >>= return . f
pure = return
mfab <*> ma = mfab >>= (\ fab -> ma >>= (return . fab))

I am trying to make a plugin that stores player stats on a YML file. The stats I want to save for now are the kill count, their bounty and their name. I want to make a separate file for each user. I have tried with the wiki entry that explains how to use custom config files, but none were generated. This is my code now, and it won't generate either when I kill my friend (for now, I only want to store kills per user):
Main: https://hastebin.skyra.pw/uxubuxisur.java
When I kill someone, no file is generated on the plugin folder, which is hosted on our server. What am I missing? I already tried three different ways before this one and none were working.

You don't seem to register your listener

(int) playerData.get("kills.amount"); could be playerData.getInt("kills.amount");

[dawn flower]

i believe i need to copy the player's inventory into an array and loop through that

[tidal finch]

thanks. Didn't even know these flags exist 😄 Thanks again

[lost matrix]

Some notes on style convention for java:

• Variables in lower camel case: Num_veces -> numVeces
• Generally english is the preferred language for methods and variables.
• Dont use single letter variables like e (this goes for any programming language)
• Dont name your class something ambiguous like Main

It is very important, that you dont run IO on the games main thread. Hard drives are very very slow compared to ram.
So if an event occurs, and you start writing data to disk, then the entire game has to wait for your IO to finish. This
will cause massive lag in absolutely no time.

Bind your data to scopes:
When a player joins -> Load the data from Disk to RAM
When the player quits -> Save the data from RAM to Disk

[icy beacon]

thank you for the info

[lost matrix]

If you want to remove specific items from an Inventory, then you should use the Inventory#removeItem(ItemStack...) method.
It removes items from the inventory based on the isSimilar() check for ItemStacks.

[dawn flower]

the thing is, if u don't have enough items (it's a shop plugin) i dont want it to still remove whatever u have

and i want it so if u have for example 10 raw cod in 1 slot and 5 cod in another slot it would still work

and if u have 10 cod in one slot and 6 in another it removes 10 then 5 not 10 then 6 cuz all my previous attempts did that

[lost matrix]

removeItem should be very exact with its amount. I think you used remove() before, which removes all items that match the given ItemStack

[dawn flower]

^

can i copy the player's inventory and set the player's inventory

[lost matrix]

That sounds expensive. Why dont you just use containsAtLeast on the Inventory to check if he has enough items

[dawn flower]

this is hard to explain, i have a rarity system that changes the color of the item name based on the rarity, i could have a common cod (white) and an uncommon cod (lime) and isSimilar iirc checks if the item name is exactly the same color included

containsAtLeast and removeItem as u said use isSimilar

[lost matrix]

Hmm, i really wanted to add a method which takes a Predicate<ItemStack> as an argument instead of the isSimilar check.
Well, looks like you need to write two util methods then.

[dawn flower]

cant i just copy removeItem method and change the check to be my custom check instead of writing one from zero

[lost matrix]

Sure

bro "item" and "i" are already defined in the scope and i need to define an itemstack var

tf do i name it

[rough drift]

stack

item stack

[dawn flower]

genius

[rough drift]

descriptionOfItem

or

refactor

[lost matrix]

Just an example i thought about:

public class InventoryUtils {

  public static int count(Inventory inventory, Predicate<ItemStack> predicate) {
    int count = 0;
    for (ItemStack item : inventory) {
      if (!predicate.test(item)) {
        continue;
      }
      count += item.getAmount();
    }
    return count;
  }

  public static int remove(Inventory inventory, int amount, Predicate<ItemStack> predicate) {
    int remaining = amount;
    for (ItemStack item : inventory) {
      if (!predicate.test(item)) {
        continue;
      }
      if (item.getAmount() <= remaining) {
        remaining -= item.getAmount();
        item.setAmount(0);
      } else {
        item.setAmount(item.getAmount() - remaining);
        remaining = 0;
      }
      if (remaining == 0) {
        break;
      }
    }
    return amount - remaining;
  }

}

would anyone know how to use shadowJar with jitpack? Can't figure it out, i'm getting this error:

😡

[lost matrix]

You mean how to get mavenplublish working with jitpack? I dont see a correlation to shadowjar here.

[dawn flower]

like dis?

[lost matrix]

Eh... 🤨

[dawn flower]

thats literally craftinventory method

[lost matrix]

How about you write it in a more generic way so that it can be reused

[rare rover]

jitpack works, just whenever i use the artifact it doesn't

[dawn flower]

ima just use urs then

[rare rover]

i need to include all the dependencies in the jitpack source

[oak mica]

How can I make a warden not target specific players

[dawn flower]

uhh

ur remove thingi aint even taking an item as param?

[lost matrix]

Hm, not sure if there is a specific event for that. The Warden itself has a clearAnger(Entity entity) method.
Let me check which methods would be fired for increasing the anger level.

[rare rover]

because i need access to them without adding every dependency each time

[hollow vessel]

??

[chrome beacon]

You can't forcibly open a writable book

[dawn flower]

using ur code

for (ItemStack costItem : cost) {
  Predicate<ItemStack> predicate = (stack) -> stack.hasItemMeta && ChatColor.stripColor(stack.getItemMeta.getDisplayName()).equalsIgnoreCase(ChatColor.stripColor(costItem.getItemMeta.getDisplayName()));
  if (costItem.getAmount() > InventoryUtils.count(inventory, predicate)) {
    player.sendMessage("brokie");
    return;
  }
  InventoryUtils.remove(inventory, costItem.getAmount(), predicate)
}```
like dis?

[oak mica]

I thihnk a slightly scuffed thing I could do is create a custom warden and override the canTargetEntity method to not allow targetting of a specific entity

also i still dont understand what i can save in a chunks nbt that allows me to respawn an entity from it

cuz i cant save all the entity data

[hollow vessel]

it is not possible to open writable book and get user input?

[oak mica]

just use a sign or smth

[hollow vessel]

i would like to use book instead

[chrome beacon]

no

[oak mica]

can i set a zombies skin

idk man i want it to look different

[icy beacon]

im not like other girls

[oak mica]

on god

hiow do i stop this warden from giving a certain player blindness :c

[modern plank]

is there any supported ways to make http requests in bukkit or do i have to use a 3rd party

[slender elbow]

I mean, bukkit isn't an http client

the jdk does have one however

in the java.net.http package iirc

[modern plank]

i was thinking if using a http would cause issues

[icy beacon]

Or if you like convenience use retrofit

[lilac dagger]

java has it all

if it's malicious yes

[modern plank]

but doing Bukkit.runTask should fix every threading issue

[slender elbow]

I mean, just don't block on requests on the main thread

runTaskAsync

[lilac dagger]

but nobody will say anything if you just use https

[modern plank]

i was thinking using okttph doing async callback then soing Bukkit.runTask to handle bukkit related stuff

[slender elbow]

and the jdk http client has built-in support for asynchronous execution anyway, returning a CompletableFuture

[lilac dagger]

just use java 😄

[modern plank]

so the asyncatcher doesnt cause an error

[lilac dagger]

you'll have to sync it back

if you wanna use spigot/bukkit api

[modern plank]

sure but i was thinking if bukkit had anything against doing async outside their scope

[lilac dagger]

Bukkit.runtask is pretty good

[slender elbow]

not really

[modern plank]

aight needed to make sure

[lethal coral]

why are these the file locations? this is not where the directory is for the server on my pc

    /**
     * Ensures that the provided file and its directories are created.
     *
     * @param file the file to defend
     * @return the file being defended (ignorable)
     */
    @SuppressWarnings("ResultOfMethodCallIgnored")
    public static File defendFile(File file) {
        try {
            File parent = file.getParentFile();
            if (!parent.exists()) {
                parent.mkdirs();
            }
            file.createNewFile();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
        return file;
    }

this is the defendfile method

[remote swallow]

. signifies current dir

current dir comes from location of server jar

[slender elbow]

technically

no

but generally yes

[granite owl]

do i understand the concept correct that when i pass a primitive wrapped in a Class i pass a reference, and thus i can handle it like a pointer rather than a copy(e.g modifying the value of the wrapped primitive passed as parameter)?

i mean is this the purpose of wrapped primitives?

[tardy delta]

defend file?

[lethal coral]

thanks

my defendFile method just wasn't doing what I was expecting

[granite owl]

public static void foo(Integer i)
    {
        i = 5;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        Integer i = 1;

        System.out.println(i);

        foo(i);

        System.out.println(i);
    }
```because this appears to remain 1

[icy beacon]

I may be completely wrong but I would assume that the compiler would unbox this into primitives for optimization

[granite owl]

what about strings

it shows the same behavior

and theres no primitive char* in java

[icy beacon]

Good question

It's something else then probably, not sure, will also wait for an answer

[granite owl]

public static void foo(String s)
    {
        s = "LOL";
    }

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        String s = "Hello World";

        System.out.println(s);

        foo(s);

        System.out.println(s);
    }
``` this remains hello world

that kinda defeats the purpose of pass by reference

[slender elbow]

java is pass by value

Objects are not like C++ references

[granite owl]

so it always makes copies?

[slender elbow]

it copies the "pointer"

[granite owl]

i thought it always passes a reference of objects?

[granite owl]

then why cant i modify it like shown?

[slender elbow]

when you reassign an object you reassign the local "pointer", not the underlying object

[icy beacon]

Oh that's trueeeee

[granite owl]

so

i have to change it with valueof?

[slender elbow]

huh
