[icy beacon]

Well strings are immutable in and of themselves

[granite owl]

how do i not reassign the local pointer

but modify the object passed

[icy beacon]

You can alter the object if it has some methods for its altering

E.g. for itemstacks it could be setItemMeta

But if you reassign the variable you're just working with a new variable

[granite owl]

i mean, how do i handle this like a pointer ```java
public static void foo(String s)
{
s = "LOL";
}

instead of reassigning it

[slender elbow]

String is immutable

you'd either have to use a StringBuilder (basically a mutable string), return a String, or pass an AtomicReference<String> and mutate that

[granite owl]

then how do i change an Integer's value

theyre not immutable id assume

since the data size doesnt change

[slender elbow]

Integer is immutable

the value it holds is unmodifiable

[granite owl]

🤨

so every time i change the value of an integer what the interpreter does is releasing the 8 byte from the heap

and then re-allocate it

for the same size?

[slender elbow]

i strongly suggest you stop thinking of java as if it was c++

[granite owl]

well i mainly know C++ and try to understand what java does

to work with it properly

and not just "by chance it works"

[slender elbow]

specifically, there is a local variable in the LVT (local vars table, it's an indexed table for local variables), method parameters are assigned to a local variable in the LVT, whatever you pass to the method at call site is copied to there, pass by value (for Object/references, the "pointer" is copied, not a deep copy), when you reassign a local variable, you are changing the value in that table, and when you reassign an Object/reference you are reassigning this "pointer" to the new object's "pointer"

C++ references are not a thing in Java so, unlearn that

[tranquil glen]

yeah you can't really do much with pointers/references in java at all

unfortunately

[granite owl]

jni but that defeats the purpose

xD

[tranquil glen]

what does jni mean

[granite owl]

and its a pain to maintain the library as i had to figure

java native interface?

[tranquil glen]

oh sorry i thought u were making some sorta abbreviation like btw

[granite owl]

^^

im thinking to wrap sqlite with the jni but i dont really feel like using native code for a server

most providers hate that

[slender elbow]

just use jdbc?

[granite owl]

thats based on dll and so files too

[slender elbow]

i've very rarely had a reason to do native bindings when working in java, unless i'm interfacing with win32/linux kernel that doesn't have an equivalent java api, or doing graphics programming etc

and it's likely you'll find yourself in the same situation

[granite owl]

well i want to use serverless sql

for the most part

and jdbc is making use of its own native code to wrap sqlite in turn

and native code isnt really an option

[slender elbow]

it might not necessarily (depends specifically on the driver used), but jdbc is stable and standardized for all sql engines

[granite owl]

i mean it did work i made it work but thats the thing host providers hate native code and block its execution

[slender elbow]

that is far from true lmao

what

bukkit already provides with the sqlite jdbc driver anyway

[lilac dagger]

^ both mysql driver and sqlite

[granite owl]

huh

well

i can prototype it

[lilac dagger]

not sure why people implement their own

[granite owl]

what i want

[slender elbow]

huh

just use jdbc, no reason not to

[lilac dagger]

if you want orm like behaviour you can key a uuid and have a string datatype that's a json that got base64'd

[slender elbow]

💀

the anti sql

[lilac dagger]

i'm not saying to have just these 2

i have a project that has this + normal sql columns

it's just nice to store options in such a table

[granite owl]

so just put everything in a json string and serialize that? xD

[lilac dagger]

it works

wait, let me see which data type i went with

[slender elbow]

why base64

lol

[lilac dagger]

i think json is gonna cause problems

so i went with the safe encoder

[slender elbow]

ssssssure

it isn't, but sure

[dry hazel]

most dbs even have a json datatype nowadays

[slender elbow]

text is just text

[young knoll]

Just make sure to sanitize it

[lilac dagger]

it's TEXT

well, base64 is sure gonna sanitize it

[remote swallow]

ill sanitize you

[lilac dagger]

plus it's too late, i don't wanna break compat now

[granite owl]

why is java so cocky with converting unicode to byte array and back to a string?

some bytes are negative cause everything is signed

and then when i want to convert it back to a string the characters are broken

[lilac dagger]

i dunno either, just make sure to choose the correct charset

[granite owl]

thats what i did

String str = "Hello World!好X";

        byte[] arr = str.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8);

        for (byte b : arr)
        {
            System.out.print(b + " ");
        }

        System.out.println(new String(arr, StandardCharsets.UTF_8));
``` output is ```txt
72 101 108 108 111 32 87 111 114 108 100 33 -27 -91 -67 88 Hello World!?X

[lilac dagger]

but it probably makes sense

you don't wanna waste half of your values right?

you use them all

[granite owl]

wdym

[lilac dagger]

in java everything is signed

[granite owl]

yes but

bytes by default are unsigned

by nature

0x0 to 0xFF

[lilac dagger]

i'm not sure that's true for java

case and point

[granite owl]

in java everything is signed yes

[lilac dagger]

i think chars are maybe?

[granite owl]

but bytes by nature are unsigned

[slender elbow]

sounds like you aren't compiling with utf8 encoding

[granite owl]

wait

[slender elbow]

the fact that everything is signed doesn't matter here

[granite owl]

apparently so

gimme a sec

[lilac dagger]

yeah, sign is just another value in char context

[granite owl]

thats gonna take a second

ur prob right that i compile with the ascii charset

[slender elbow]

iirc javac has a -encoding flag? you'd pass "UTF-8", I'm assuming you aren't using maven/gradle at this stage

[granite owl]

but im using VS code to compile so gimme a sec

to find where i can set the flag

[granite owl]

im using maven but to debug im running the code without maven rn

  <properties>
    <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>

    <maven.compiler.source>21</maven.compiler.source>
    <maven.compiler.target>21</maven.compiler.target>
  </properties>
```ill compile it with maven sec

[slender elbow]

yeah that property should do it

although if you're using java 21 it should already use utf8 i think

[granite owl]

still

Hello World!?X
72 101 108 108 111 32 87 111 114 108 100 33 -27 -91 -67 88 Hello World!?X

but maybe the terminal is ascii too

sec

[granite owl]

i do

[slender elbow]

that is a possibility too

zsh my beloved

[civic sluice]

zsh + oh my zsh 🫀

[granite owl]

changing it to utf8 changed the way its displayed

but its still poorly displayed

Hello World!ÕÑ¢X

[proven musk]

whats the best way to store temporary data?

like

lets say im making a grapple hook and I just want to store stuff like if a player is currently grappling or not

[remote swallow]

pdc

[lilac dagger]

map, object

[remote swallow]

or just a map ye

[proven musk]

still pdc? isn't that slow?

[lilac dagger]

just a map

[proven musk]

ok

ty

[lilac dagger]

map's are very fast if uuid is the key

[granite owl]

ill try to redirect the default output pipe to a txt file, the windows text editor is by default able to interpret utf8 encoded strings properly xD

[lilac dagger]

or any object can be fast if the key is hash efficient

[granite owl]

cant be that hard to get the leading bits to work

[proven musk]

what do I do here

what do I use instead

[granite owl]

you instantiate a hashmap

[remote swallow]

hash map

[granite owl]

not a map

[lilac dagger]

it's a hashmap

[remote swallow]

(quick tip)

[proven musk]

ohh ok

[remote swallow]

i dont like how long that is now

@young knoll why is it so long

[granite owl]

Q: what is abstract? A: not final

🫡

[polar forge]

Why is setBanned red?

[remote swallow]

because thats not a method

[granite owl]

so anyways, the leading bit making the numeric representation of a byte negative should not affect the byte's integrity right?

[eternal night]

because it doesn't exist?

Epic faster

[remote swallow]

did you confirm it wasnt a method first

[granite owl]

in multibyte characters*

[remote swallow]

i double checked after

[glad prawn]

Are you asking chatgpt?

[polar forge]

No I’m following an old tutorial

[eternal oxide]

Player#ban

[polar forge]

Should I change that into that

I don’t understand what u mean

[eternal night]

use player.ban instead

which is actually a method

[remote swallow]

guess what

[slender elbow]

it doesn't

[alpine urchin]

lets teach him concurrency guys

on spot

[civic sluice]

MemeGPT

[polar forge]

So, player.ban(true);?

[alpine urchin]

superposition

quantum bukkit api when

ban(superposition)

[granite owl]

and atomic operations since we are at it!

[lilac dagger]

the only problem is when you perform math, print it as a byte

[polar forge]

U woke up and chose violence 😭

[remote swallow]

nah, you should go learn the basics of java

[polar forge]

Guess what

[alpine urchin]

damn

[polar forge]

I’m learning

[slender elbow]

do a course

[eternal night]

no

[slender elbow]

like you've been told for a week now

[alpine urchin]

im a language teacher

[eternal night]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/OfflinePlayer.html#ban(java.lang.String,java.util.Date,java.lang.String)

[granite owl]

synchronized
```🤣

[alpine urchin]

i mean if you're down to pay an arm and a leg, hmu @polar forge

or maybe a toe

or a finger

up to you

[polar forge]

For what

[alpine urchin]

tutoring

[polar forge]

I could give u my love <333

[alpine urchin]

are you female

wait i have a gf

[polar forge]

No

[proven musk]

what the hell

[granite owl]

concurrency in java is actually easy lol literally just smash synchronized before everything that you suspect will be accessed from multiple threads xD

har har har

[alpine urchin]

https://tenor.com/view/what-disappointed-turtle-turtles-waqkiz-gif-7093195327673666382

[eternal night]

folia ™️

[polar forge]

I actually don’t understand the docs so, it’s not useful

[eternal night]

huh?

[slender elbow]

it's very useful

it tells you all the things you need to pass to the method

[eternal night]

what do you mean you don't understand the docs

[proven musk]

ok If I wanted to do something like change velocity every tick what could I do

[polar forge]

It doesn’t explain anything useful

[eternal night]

it tells you there is a method called ban

and that it takes a string, a date and another string

[lilac dagger]

the problem with this is that all thereads wait until the block completes

[eternal night]

and explains what each of those parameters is

[polar forge]

Yes, but where does it tell me how I would need to use it?

[lilac dagger]

it still has to be small

[granite owl]

ngl spigots javadocs is actually rather well maintained xD

[slender elbow]

do you know how to call a method on an object?

[polar forge]

Thing = thing I guess

[eternal night]

ooof

[slender elbow]

my man

[remote swallow]

https://tenor.com/view/controlmypc-cat-screaming-discord-gif-20582295

[glad prawn]

wow

[slender elbow]

it's been a week

[granite owl]

yea but my statement stands true, if u understand the general concept of concurrency java has one of the easiest implementations for it. not like C's atoms and the winapi's mutex

[remote swallow]

they've been here before

months ago

[slender elbow]

damn

[polar forge]

Do u still remember me from last year?

When I got a time out for 1 week 😭

[civic sluice]

👀
👅

[slender elbow]

you have been told countless times to do a java course

you are clearly not learning this way

[alpine urchin]

if you're able to sell your love to pay 10 bucks an hour, that's tutoring

[lilac dagger]

yeah, i don't struggle with concurency in java, i like it infact

[alpine urchin]

free tutoring

for you

[slender elbow]

do a java course

[alpine urchin]

love = money

ez fix

wait

WAIT

[polar forge]

I could give u 10 V bucks

[remote swallow]

calling a method is a very basic thing, you should know before you even start spigot

[alpine urchin]

hmmm what profession sells love for money

🤔

[remote swallow]

hookers

[granite owl]

gotta say concurrency, serialization and design patterns are very easily realizeable in java which is one of the few reasons i start to favor it over C++ xD

[alpine urchin]

you're a h||aha||

[slender elbow]

calling a method is literally day 1 of java class

[alpine urchin]

ever heard of milking

in my class thats a week

[polar forge]

Yes guys, continue with saying how easy it is

[lilac dagger]

annotations are op for serialization

[alpine urchin]

anyway

[quaint mantle]

Java is easier than html (html is already easy)

[alpine urchin]

i used to tutor my friends for free

back in the day

was kinda fun

if someone would genuinely pay id tutor

[granite owl]

never tried to write my own tbh

[lilac dagger]

it isn't too hard

[shadow night]

The only issue is that you are comparing a markdown lang with a programming lang lol

[slender elbow]

erm, it's actually a markup language 🤓

[granite owl]

tbh im thinking if i should write my own gui in swing or javafx for the server

superior to microsofts hahaha

since its so easy to synchronize it with the main thread

[polar forge]

https://tenor.com/view/tayomaki-crying-laughing-hysterical-sakigifs-gif-22186436

[eternal night]

so many servers running in an environment where a java UI makes sense

[granite owl]

html is not even a deterministic language

[granite owl]

true

[remote swallow]

is yaml a markdown langage

[quaint mantle]

Root servers dont even support ui

[slender elbow]

no

[polar forge]

But guys, could anyone tell me how I can do it? instead of setBanned

[granite owl]

they told u 5x

[polar forge]

Not true

[slender elbow]

have you ever called a method on an object?

[granite owl]

player#ban

[polar forge]

I guess

[slender elbow]

how have you done it?

[polar forge]

Yes but how can I implement it?

[nova notch]

ain't no way you're still going this is wild

[eternal oxide]

We really did. You need the most basic of Java knowledge to understand what I wrote

[young knoll]

YAML Ain't Markup Language

[granite owl]

by implementing the player class?

[civic sluice]

If you make the mistake to install Windows or a linux server with gui it can. You're wasting resources then.

[polar forge]

It’s already implemented?

[remote swallow]

so its a markdown language

[granite owl]

doesnt yaml mean yaml is not a markup language xD

[eternal oxide]

Don;t confuse him

[young knoll]

Yes

It's a recursive acronym

[polar forge]

Can anyone of u make an example so that I can understand it well?

[eternal night]

🥄

[glad prawn]

object.method() ?

[nova notch]

for the love of whatever god you pray to do target.ban() and be done with it

[eternal oxide]

You got a target, which is a player. setBanned does not exist as a method of Player so use what i told you

[polar forge]

It’s not spoonfeeding, it’s something called learning

[eternal night]

object.method(param1, param2, param3)

[lilac dagger]

your ass markup language = yaml

[slender elbow]

methods and parameters are LITERALLY day 1 of any java course

[polar forge]

target.ban(true);?

[granite owl]

i can assure you what comes out of it is pure code

[remote swallow]

calling a method is day 0 java learning, we shouldnt need to tell you

[slender elbow]

you've been hindering your own ability to do this for over a year apparently

[eternal night]

target.ban(param1, param2, param3)

[polar forge]

Well I learn it on day 12000, u got any problems?

[granite owl]

tbh i hate saying "learn java" but you should learn how to read the javadocs you can dive through most of it

and spigots api is provided as source too

allowing to browse through everything

how it works to the core

[polar forge]

Yea but, it’s not the same usage as I wrote, I wrote true

[young knoll]

12000 days to years

Oh wait this is not the google

[granite owl]

ask chatgpt

[polar forge]

Why does it change to parameters?

[remote swallow]

theres no issue when you learn it, its just when you continue to not learn it, when we've told you for a week straight

[granite owl]

im sure it will say something like 2 years

[eternal night]

ask chatgpt

[granite owl]

xD

[polar forge]

I’ll learn it step by step

[slender elbow]

yes by doing a course

[remote swallow]

32.877

[polar forge]

Wow very helpful

[nova notch]

mf you on step 0 rn 😭

[young knoll]

roughly equivalent to 32 years and 313 days.

[proven musk]

is there an updated custom entities tutorial? the 1.18 one is out of date

[polar forge]

Who told u so? Are u counting my steps?

[remote swallow]

get power toys run with the conversion plugin

[quaint mantle]

Y'all learn calling methods? The first thing I did with Java is break an log and craft a crafting table

[slender elbow]

doing a single day of any course is gonna be more helpful than begging for a week how to call a method

[granite owl]

it says nullable for all parameters, which means you can literally call ```java
player.ban();

[remote swallow]

\

[rapid vigil]

no it's 32.876

[eternal night]

what

[granite owl]

he wants to know how to ban a player

[eternal night]

"pass null implicitly"

what language are you coming from

[granite owl]

im sorry english is not my main language

[polar forge]

Bro can’t round off 😭

[slender elbow]

all parameters must be passed explicitly

be null or otherwise

[winter cradle]

why would you make confident claims when you don't know how it works

[remote swallow]

why is there 2 emilies

[slender elbow]

we dating

[polar forge]

Yes but what if I put a parameter? Does something change?

[quaint mantle]

No its 32,876712

[remote swallow]

congrats

[polar forge]

What do those parameters do

[eternal night]

if only there was a javadoc page

that described what they do

[young knoll]

Send hewlp there's too many of them

[remote swallow]

wow

[eternal oxide]

read teh javadoc for the method

[polar forge]

Yes but what do they actually do

I don’t understand

[eternal night]

this

[eternal oxide]

read the javadoc

[granite owl]

oh im so sorry that its not overloaded i better end my coding carrer

[polar forge]

Do they print out in chat?

[remote swallow]

no

when you get banned, it says why on your screen

[polar forge]

And what

Yes

[remote swallow]

you can specify a custom message or it uses the default in spigot/bukkit.yml

[granite owl]

i didnt read to the end

i assumed its overloaded

[remote swallow]

for expires it lets you say when to unban them, eg null to ban forever or a date to ban them till them

[polar forge]

I know, but we don’t have temp bans

[remote swallow]

source lets you say what banned them, eg console, a player etc etc

[remote swallow]

so pass null

[granite owl]

which it is

[remote swallow]

use ur eyes and READ

[granite owl]

but not what i thought

[polar forge]

Yea by the player

Me

[remote swallow]

so pass your player name to the last param

[nova notch]

I am convinced this man is blind and using a narrator thing to read it out

[polar forge]

sender.getName() right?

[remote swallow]

sure

[quaint mantle]

Correct way to do is

player.ban(null, null, null);

not

player.ban();

[polar forge]

Ok nice

[granite owl]

its not overloaded in the way i thought it is

[eternal night]

[polar forge]

But guys

I want to implement now

[remote swallow]

it is implemented

[civic sluice]

https://tenor.com/view/spoon-feed-tom-bird-feeding-gif-19598634

[polar forge]

That if I ban a player, it prints out in chat a message like sender.getName() + “Has Banned “ + target.getName()

How is that possible?

[remote swallow]

yeah

[eternal night]

good question

[remote swallow]

Bukkit.broadcastMessage()

[polar forge]

Thx <333

Yes but

How could u implement it

[slender elbow]

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

[eternal night]

Hmmm, good questions

[remote swallow]

you pass exactly what you want to send

I’m learning

Step by step

[slender elbow]

literally a method call just like every other method you've ever called

[quaint mantle]

Starting with plugins is not correct

[proven musk]

is there a good tutorial for nms out

[chrome beacon]

Seems to be like you skipped 10 steps

[civic sluice]

No you clearly aren't

[remote swallow]

wow

[chrome beacon]

and now you're having problems

[slender elbow]

you are clearly not learning

[polar forge]

Yes but how does the plugin know when I banned someone genius

[proven musk]

this is kinda rest of the fucking owl me (aka how do I decompile? what does that mean?)

[slender elbow]

if you were, you would know how to call a method after a week

[winter cradle]

you should just leave this channel and kiss me instead

[quaint mantle]

...

[slender elbow]

true

[remote swallow]

because you call the method

what do you expect me to say

[polar forge]

Wdym?

[eternal night]

#handholding wtf

[remote swallow]

woah

[chrome beacon]

Open a thread

[slender elbow]

you are the one calling player.ban, you know when you banned a player

[chrome beacon]

this channel is busy

[remote swallow]

Its almost as if calling Player#ban you ban the player and know it happened

thats absolutely crazy that happened

[granite owl]

read through the source files, if youre bold enough you can decompile java class files back to source🤣 not that id ever endorse such a behavior

[civic sluice]

cuuuteee

[quaint mantle]

Damn i used .ban and it actually banned the player

Crazy i didnt believe it would happen

you pass a string of what you want the reason as

if you say how

[quaint mantle]

You want a reason section but not a reason?

[polar forge]

What do u guys mean

I decide the reason

[remote swallow]

you pass 3 nulls

[polar forge]

Why?

[remote swallow]

you replace the first null with the reason you want as a string

[polar forge]

Like “You Have Been Banned For:”

[remote swallow]

pass a string using \n for new lines

[slender elbow]

you pass your reason string in the reason parameter yes

[quaint mantle]

Player.ban("REASON HERE (Example: Hacking)", null, null)

[remote swallow]

🥄

[eternal night]

nah, their variable isn't called Player

[quaint mantle]

I just did what the javadoc say

[eternal night]

there is no way they get this

[remote swallow]

[quaint mantle]

They shouldnt do plugins if they dont know basic java anyway

[remote swallow]

what do you think weve been trying to get them to do

[quaint mantle]

Should have started with a calculator tutorial

Or a simple console app

[polar forge]

Why hacking? If it is greasing?

[glad prawn]

bro

[polar forge]

Greafing?

[quaint mantle]

Bro

Its literally an example

[civic sluice]

I'm happy to read and listen to update stream later this week. 🫀

[slender elbow]

you pass whatever string you want

[eternal night]

nah you need a different method if they are banned for griefing

[remote swallow]

okay now your going on the no help list

[slender elbow]

it can be anything

[eternal night]

emily is lying actually

[slender elbow]

"banned for pooping in public"

[quaint mantle]

Emily stop lying

[eternal night]

it's player.banForGriefing() if its for griefing

[polar forge]

Bruh

[quaint mantle]

Its called Player.banForStealing() for stealing

[remote swallow]

please learn the basics @polar forge. Stop what your coding now and go right the way back to step one and learn

real

[granite owl]

pretty sure this is trolling xD before i wasnt sure

[polar forge]

✨Help development ✨

[eternal night]

yea, I think we'd help with development

[polar forge]

It isn’t?

[slender elbow]

we can't help you if you can't help yourself

[eternal night]

What you are doing is using this as chatgpt

[chrome beacon]

It's help development not do it for you development

[quaint mantle]

#spoonfeeddevelopment

[polar forge]

I’m getting help bc I don’t understand

I fr don’t understand

[eternal night]

do a java tutorial. Ask here if you have questions about a specific java tutorial

don't start with plugins

[chrome beacon]

You're confused because you skipped too much

and you're refusing to take a step back

[slender elbow]

this is not #learning-java channel, there are courses for that

[civic sluice]

I should start piping the problem to chat gpt and piping the answer back into this channel.

[quaint mantle]

You can start plugins if you get to Manifest files, but until then dont start plugins

[polar forge]

I’m trying to understand but u guys throw bad things at me

And it’s not cool

[eternal night]

[slender elbow]

"bad", literally told you what methods to call

[polar forge]

:c

[eternal night]

aight, tired enough of trolls today. Time to do other things

[acoustic pendant]

family friendly

[chrome beacon]

Learning from a java tutorial isn't bad, especially when you're writing Java

[slender elbow]

we are not here to teach java

[quaint mantle]

@proven musk Change of topic, do you still need help with nms?

[polar forge]

Help understanding, it sounds better to me

[proven musk]

sorry people are clowning on you, but you should really know basic programming before you come here

[proven musk]

yes lol

[slender elbow]

understanding what? how to call a method? that is teaching java

[tardy delta]

i should connect a chatgpt userbot to this channel

[quaint mantle]

What do you need help with

[acoustic pendant]

guys, About nms i have a doubt, when I should be using them? I mean, in which cases is it useful?

[proven musk]

im trying to find the screenshots

[polar forge]

Understanding how to put Griefing and Hacking (since those are the rules of my server ) in the space of reason

[granite owl]

1st hows that fair for legitimate questions and 2nd u gonna pay alot

[eternal night]

I mean, in cases where there is no API for it

[proven musk]

im def missing something but idk

[eternal night]

or you need it at such high speeds that the extra work the API has to do is not acceptable

[acoustic pendant]

Could you give me an example? apart from npcs

[chrome beacon]

The images you're looking at are quite old and won't work right on modern versions

[eternal night]

Yea I mean, anything packet related that isn't in the API

[acoustic pendant]

that's not the case lol

[granite owl]

i wish spigot would support custom and more importantly persistent pathfindergoals

[quaint mantle]

Remove -api

It should only be spigot

[chrome beacon]

As I said earlier open a thread and I can help you

[quaint mantle]

Not spigot-api

[chrome beacon]

this channel is busy

[eternal night]

Well generally just, stick to the API if you can

[proven musk]

hmm well thats been there forever

[acoustic pendant]

yeah, but the only that I have seen is npcs

[eternal night]

makes your life a lot easier on minecraft updates

[acoustic pendant]

that's why i'm asking

[proven musk]

idk how to do that but for a moment there was literally nothing else going on

[quaint mantle]

Remove the "-api" for nms to work @proven musk

[proven musk]

oh ok

[eternal night]

I mean, spigots goal is to allow you to do everything you want without needing NMS

[proven musk]

oh right lol

[granite owl]

what about pathfindergoals🤨 i miss them for years

[eternal night]

so to that degree, yea, great if you only need to use NMS for NPCs

oh, right, spigot does not have a goals api

[quaint mantle]

Spigot still doesnt allow custom blocks tho

So nms still needed

[civic sluice]

📰

[eternal night]

nor does vanilla

[acoustic pendant]

I'm not saying needing

i'm saying the options it have

[young knoll]

Well technically…

[granite owl]

vanilla does

[quaint mantle]

Technically they do

[acoustic pendant]

as the API has almost anything

[eternal night]

what?

[polar forge]

What does this mean?

[young knoll]

You can inject new blocks into the registry

[polar forge]

Ambiguous?

[young knoll]

Just don’t expect the client to like it

:p

[eternal night]

Yea but they are not synced with the client

so yea

[acoustic pendant]

why are u doing ban(null, null, null) xd

[eternal night]

ggwp, you need to translate them back

[polar forge]

That’s what they told me to do

[eternal night]

i would not call that "support in vanilla"

[young knoll]

Well maybe the client should just sync them smh

[glad prawn]

cast

[young knoll]

Sync all registries

[eternal night]

the client really should

[young knoll]

Every single one

[acoustic pendant]

trolled xd

[eternal night]

[granite owl]

block display data and observables

sorry

events

[polar forge]

What should I write then?

[civic sluice]

disguise api should be a good addition for 1.20.5 🙂

[eternal night]

[chrome beacon]

That was an example for something else

[acoustic pendant]

I mean, what do you expect to happen if its null

[eternal oxide]

supply the args as teh javadocs tell you. Not 3 null

[proven musk]

the error is telling you what to do dude. If you have spigot questions then ask but this is a java question

[quaint mantle]

Would spigot custom blocks be possible with the new "Compontents" in 1.20.4

[eternal night]

no

[quaint mantle]

1.20.5*

[glad prawn]

default, forever, default lol

[granite owl]

but what if i have paper questions🐒

[eternal night]

custom blocks aren't a thing unless the client can handle custom blocks defined on the server

[acoustic pendant]

?

[glad prawn]

read the doc

[proven musk]

if you dont know how to look at a doc and figure out how to call a method then your question isn't for here

[quaint mantle]

So either way a mod will be required until mojang codes it in?

[polar forge]

I’m trying to add a reason thing there

[eternal night]

yea pretty much

[polar forge]

But how do I do it?

[eternal night]

you can always "emulate" it

via e.g. the block states on noteblocks + resource packs

[acoustic pendant]

get the args and change the string with that

[quaint mantle]

Item displays + custom item model ez

[proven musk]

pass in a string bro we told you

[eternal night]

yea. But real custom blocks will need mojang to support them

they are on their way there tho

[quaint mantle]

I hope so

[polar forge]

I’ve done that, but it tells me cannot resolve method ban(string string string)

[proven musk]

oh my god

please learn the basics of java

[quaint mantle]

?basics

[undone axle]

Here are some links to get you started on learning Java:

[young knoll]

Lynx has contacts with John Mojang

[quaint mantle]

Just dont help this guy man

[young knoll]

Dm him for all the leaks

[chrome beacon]

yeah 1.20.5 is looking real promising

[acoustic pendant]

learn java first

[eternal night]

[granite owl]

prob stupid question but can(better say should) i outsource resource heavy tasks to an actual thread and start a bukkitrunnable awaiting the thread to reach its exit point?

[young knoll]

Completable future

Woo

[acoustic pendant]

bro

read the docs

[eternal night]

CF woohooo

[acoustic pendant]

you can't give 3 strings lol

[quaint mantle]

If only people would listen and look at java basics

[granite owl]

man another doc page to read

here we go xD

[proven musk]

what am I doing wrong 😅

[young knoll]

Did you run buildstools

With the right flag

[remote swallow]

did you run buildtools with --remapped

[proven musk]

wait

[polar forge]

What should I place in date?

[granite owl]

buildtools copies its libs into the local maven repo right?

[young knoll]

Yes

[proven musk]

im so confused idk if im just dumb or if this tutorial is confusing

[acoustic pendant]

the duration 😭

[chrome beacon]

hm? If you take it step by step it should work

[civic sluice]

Yeah the second parameter needs to be cast to one of the options.

[polar forge]

There is no duration, it’s perma

[chrome beacon]

Are you having troubles with running BuildTools?

[acoustic pendant]

-1 then i guess

[polar forge]

Can’t I decide it with the command? Why should I write it here already?

[chrome beacon]

No

[acoustic pendant]

or just read the docs

[chrome beacon]

Read the docs

[acoustic pendant]

idk if -1 works

[quaint mantle]

null = infinite

[acoustic pendant]

so then null

[proven musk]

can we just ignore this guy at this point

[polar forge]

Can anyone ping the docs?

[acoustic pendant]

?jd

[undone axle]

[acoustic pendant]

a

[quaint mantle]

@late sonnets

I accidentally pinged a guy rip

Sorry doc

[chrome beacon]

this conversation will continue for a while which is why I recommended opening a thread

It's not the first time I've seen this happen sadly

[granite owl]

whats actually the first class implementing Player?

[young knoll]

CraftPlayer

[granite owl]

ty

[chrome beacon]

It's Craft + the interface

[acoustic pendant]

yea, didn't see that xd

[chrome beacon]

for many things, so usually you start looking for that

[granite owl]

not found?

[quaint mantle]

Every class extends Object, but what does Object extend 🤔

[granite owl]

is it nms?

xD

[quaint mantle]

Yes

[young knoll]

It’s in craftbukkit

[quaint mantle]

Yes

[chrome beacon]

It's part of CraftBukkit which you get access to by depending on Spigot (and not just the API)

Same way you get nms access

[glad prawn]

nothing

[proven musk]

wait do you need nms for custom entities

[polar forge]

Guys last question

[acoustic pendant]

lmao

[chrome beacon]

Depends on what you want to do with those entities

[proven musk]

I feel like I shouldn't unless I need to actually use api methods

[restive ledge]

how do I create a new ItemFrame, which I can then place?

[chrome beacon]

yeah avoid it when possible

[proven musk]

I basically just want an arrow that has some extra special code it runs every tick

[young knoll]

Just use a scheduler

[polar forge]

How do u add a counter? Like Dude Has Been Banned By Dude! (1 bans)

[chrome beacon]

Do you plan on modifying the item frame? or do you just want an item frame

[granite owl]

isnt the only reason nms is so shit to use because microsoft wants to obfuscate their code as much as possible?

[acoustic pendant]

just create a file where you store the amounts of bans

[young knoll]

No?

[acoustic pendant]

or a database

[young knoll]

They literally give us mappings

[acoustic pendant]

do you need nms for that?

[eternal oxide]

pdc

[restive ledge]

just an itemframe which i can teleport, etc, Im working on a furniture plugin.

[granite owl]

but the naming has version numbers in it

[proven musk]

thats what im asking

[quaint mantle]

Minecraft is really nice for giving us mappings 🙂

[acoustic pendant]

i don't think so

[young knoll]

No it doesn’t

Only craftbukkit does

And that’s on MD

[quaint mantle]

Whats md? Markdown?

[restive ledge]

just an itemframe which i can teleport, etc, Im working on a furniture plugin.

[chrome beacon]

world#spawnEntity

[lilac dagger]

md_5

[chrome beacon]

Entity type being ItemFrame

[restive ledge]

and that returns the class too?

[quaint mantle]

Yes

[granite owl]

i mean the original file names are just incrementing ascii chars... a.class, b.class

[acoustic pendant]

true, itemframe is an entity xd

[granite owl]

at least when i last checked it

[young knoll]

Yes

Those are the obfuscated names

[chrome beacon]

It does return the entity but keep track of the UUID

to prevent unexpected issues

[granite owl]

but why if not to keep ppl out of the code by discouraging reverse engineering

[quaint mantle]

Game is easier to hack without obfuscation

[chrome beacon]

Legal reasons I believe

[granite owl]

but u have mods for that

[wary harness]

any one has clue how would I prevent this &id001

[young knoll]

It also saves space

[wary harness]

basicaly I am importing all kits to gui system

by one default

[young knoll]

Not that the game is particularly big compared to like, COD but still

[wary harness]

but then second item wont have degfault lore but will pull them off item 1

[quaint mantle]

Depends on the obfuscation method

[chrome beacon]

oh nice it created an anchor

[young knoll]

It literally makes stuff 1-2 characters

That saves space

[chrome beacon]

Not sure how you manged that

[quaint mantle]

Some obfuscation methods add useless functions so it actually uses more space

[granite owl]

btw i heard rumors that the combat rework is the last update the java edition will get but did not find sources to confirm it? is there any truth to it or did some trolls just talk too much?

[quaint mantle]

What combat rework

[granite owl]

with the hammers

the one they work on rn

xD

maces

[chrome beacon]

It's not a combat rework

it's just a new item

[granite owl]

they also change what axes can be enchated with and iirc how dmg is calculated

[young knoll]

Don’t think so

[granite owl]

anyways is that the end of java updates or is it a lie?

[proven musk]

How would I make it loop? I only know how to make it run once. Would I have to schedule the next one within the running one?

[chrome beacon]

I don't see why it would be

[quaint mantle]

When did they do that? I never heard of axe enchantments changing

[young knoll]

Unless they let axes get sword enchants

But I don’t recall that being a thing?

[granite owl]

yes

new axe enchantments

[young knoll]

runTaskTimer

[granite owl]

and existing sword enchantments

[proven musk]

oh slay ty

[young knoll]

There are no new axe enchantments

[granite owl]

cleaving?

[quaint mantle]

New enchants are dor mace

[young knoll]

That’s from the combat snapshot

[restive ledge]

how can i set its position?

[acoustic pendant]

imagine minecraft changing from java

[granite owl]

https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Cleaving

[young knoll]

Which was a long time ago

[chrome beacon]

That would be the first argument

[restive ledge]

but its changing

[young knoll]

Ew fandom wiki

[quaint mantle]

Use real wiki

Minecraft.wiki i think

[young knoll]

Also, notice how it says combat snapshot 6 and not 1.20.5

[granite owl]

yea

[chrome beacon]

If you want to move it you can use the teleport method

[restive ledge]

mcLifePlayer.placing.itemFrame.teleport(event.getPlayer().getEyeLocation());

[young knoll]

The combat snapshots are dead

I believe they’ve decided to just slowly implement stuff from them over time

[restive ledge]

will that work

[chrome beacon]

?tas

[undone axle]

https://tryitands.ee/

[granite owl]

meh

[chrome beacon]

anyways as I said earlier keep track of the UUID instead of the entity instance

[restive ledge]

im the only one online so

ill do that later

[chrome beacon]

it'll break and leak memory whenever that chunk is unloaded

[granite owl]

btw are uuids truely unique or just unlikely to be occuring multiple times? xd

[chrome beacon]

Depends on the UUID version

[knotty aspen]

the chance of an asteroid hitting you on the head right now is higher than a UUID collision

[granite owl]

hm

[quaint mantle]

These UUIDs are mostly randomly-generated 36-character strings. Technically, a few characters from each string are generated from datetime values, but most of them are random or pseudo-random. See this paper for specific details. Because the generation is entirely random, they are extremely likely to be unique.

So date also determines, so yes they are unique

[chrome beacon]

UUIDs are just 2 longs

[young knoll]

Pretty sure minecraft uses uuid v4

[granite owl]

but theres no table to track which uuids have been issued?

[young knoll]

Which is fully random

[chrome beacon]

It does

[vast ledge]

No?

Unless you save em yourself?

[proven musk]

bros out here spawning 10^304 entities

[granite owl]

so hypothetically they could have collisions

[honest echo]

hey, if i send player message in "ServerConnectedEvent" (BungeeAPI)
it simply sends player message before join message
any event which triggers after server joining ? or in general i can use a different approach ?

[vast ledge]

just check if ones already in use if so regen it?

[granite owl]

im just wondering if it is feasible to use uuids for non stackable items to prevent duping

[proven musk]

hypothetically your server and the github server all your code is stored on blows up and dies

[knotty aspen]

Apparently if you generate 1 billion UUIDs per second, you will get a collision after 86 years.
So you really shouldn't worry about it lol

[young knoll]

Sure

[proven musk]

its virtually impossible

[young knoll]

You don’t even technically need UUIDs for that

[vast ledge]

just add a char to it

[young knoll]

Just shove random bytes in the pdc

[vast ledge]

or that

[young knoll]

Or just wait for 1.20.5 and set the stack size to 1

[granite owl]

i would use pdc but with something that prevents my players going like "why did my stuff disappear"

[rapid vigil]

Why are you always so excited for 1.20.5 :p

[granite owl]

so id say items have to be exactly the same incl uuid to trigger

[chrome beacon]

Because it has great new features

[vast ledge]

yea

[rapid vigil]

Leaks?

[vast ledge]

like custom max stack size

[granite owl]

tho then names are a problem

[chrome beacon]

snapshots

and RC

[granite owl]

thats gonna be athing?

[young knoll]

Yes

[rapid vigil]

yeah but there is no API snapshots how can you tell what's new in the API

[granite owl]

wow

it just took like what 15 years?

xDDDD

[young knoll]

You can set an item to have a stack size between 1 and 99

[restive ledge]

didnt think my plugin would work first try

[granite owl]

thats nice

[restive ledge]

it did

[honest echo]

any idea ?

[granite owl]

tho doesnt the game technically support -128 to +127?

[vast ledge]

PlayerJoinEvent?

[chrome beacon]

Someone will probably add it

if not just use NMS

[proven musk]

1.20.5 is coming out in a few days right
will it be available to use in spigot immediately? Or do we have to wait for an update

[chrome beacon]

🤷‍♂️ the game supports it

[honest echo]

asking about Bungee

[young knoll]

?eta

[undone axle]

There is no ETA. Having an ETA leads to unrealistic deadlines, false hope, and a bad product. It will be ready when it's ready.

[chrome beacon]

and that's what matters

[honest echo]

not Spigot API

[granite owl]

ik that too many items could generate item stacks up to 127 back in 2011

[sharp ocean]

please format local time on TAB

[proven musk]

so we have to wait for spigot to update too

[chrome beacon]

yes

[honest echo]

not possible, its server side

[chrome beacon]

You can detect where the client is from

and adjust timezone

[young knoll]

Yeah item stacks can technically be up to 127

[granite owl]

the user could define their timezone and it can then be calculated

[young knoll]

But the game doesn’t render above 64 (99 soon)

[honest echo]

great idea

[quaint mantle]

🤔

What bout -1

[granite owl]

or just let the user define +-12h from UTC

[honest echo]

that would be manual, instead we can do just what olivo said. detect from the IP of player

[sharp ocean]

how can i give ?

[quaint mantle]

Then you need to include that in the privacy policy

[chrome beacon]

I'm assuming you're just a user and not a developer. Move to #help-server

[chrome beacon]

Minecraft already logs all ips and such

so it's nothing new really

[quaint mantle]

Privacy Policy:
"We will be using your IP to determine the location you are at and calculate the local time accordingly"

[young knoll]

Stack sizes below 0 are treated as air

[honest echo]

wouldnt that be part of minecraft policy ?

[granite owl]

that what i always wondered the GDPR is not coverered with minecraft servers

so technically all servers are illegal cause they store user data without consent by default

xD

at least in the EU

[honest echo]

lmfao

[quaint mantle]

Not all, there are some servers who actually have a privacy policy and ask for consent

[chrome beacon]

Which is why larger servers like Cubecraft have GDPR popup when you first join

[honest echo]

EU be whoppin ases of mc servers one day

[granite owl]

i wrote my own too

and erase all data on leave

if not confirmed

but thats best i can do without modifying the server itself

[quaint mantle]

Technically as an European i can ask for deletion of data at any server

[granite owl]

as a european ur not even allowed to store it in the first place without expressed consent

[quaint mantle]

Oooh free lawsuits

[granite owl]

thats the problem

[quaint mantle]

Free money

[eternal oxide]

Yep I deleted all your data, honest. No need to look behind the curtain.

[honest echo]

server still logs the IP of player even if they dont accept

[quaint mantle]

Every server in the world is forced to save ips for govermental reason

So that the fbi can use information

[granite owl]

the question is if its absolutely neccesseary to store the data without consent for normal operation like banned ips, but until theres a precidence case saying its cool for minecraft servers im rather careful what i do

[chrome beacon]

Depends on how much they've modified it

You really cannot say without having access to their internals

[honest echo]

well if all servers by default log ip, it would be part of minecraft's privacy policy

[quaint mantle]

Btw when will the Randar exploit be patched in spigot??

[young knoll]

You can disable ip logging now

[granite owl]

how

[young knoll]

Server.properties iirc

[granite owl]

that would be absolutely wyld

tho i would still want to differentiate between someone who has agreed and someone who did not / refuse

then uuid ban them xD

[quaint mantle]

Useless space usage

No one cares about consent

[vast ledge]

EHHH

[granite owl]

except for laywers lingering for free money

[vast ledge]

You may want to reconsider that statement

[honest echo]

you sould like a child predator

[vast ledge]

Yea....

[quaint mantle]

Ayo not like that

[vast ledge]

Bro

[granite owl]

xD

[eternal oxide]

wording 🙂

[quaint mantle]

I meant in terms of ip logging in mc servers

[vast ledge]

"No one cares about consent", is the first thing i read, out of context, that sounded.... rather....

[quaint mantle]

Dont use strawman fallacy on me

[honest echo]

ikr

[granite owl]

it was fun while it lastest but that statement also doesnt need to be exploited now common

[proven musk]

💀

ok uhm how could I move a player to a position while still respecting collision?

is there an easy way

🙏

[quaint mantle]

Velocity

[vast ledge]

You could check for another entity at the location?

[proven musk]

blocks

[quaint mantle]

Then do a raycast

[granite owl]

if u want to stop

[proven musk]

I want to maintain veloicty

[vast ledge]

Check if the player is being teleported into a solid

[granite owl]

then u need to interpolate

[proven musk]

a box cast

[proven musk]

or thru

[young knoll]

Take the players bounding box, move it to where you want to place them, and then check for collisions

[honest echo]

simply check if player's location block and above it is not null

[proven musk]

damn

[granite owl]

the stupid answer

git gud in math

🤣

[proven musk]

yeah but thats not a perfect solution

I would need to make a whole goddamn custom physics system

[young knoll]

Do you just want to check if the destination is clear

Or the entire path

[proven musk]

no

I want to move the player to a location but if theres stuff in the way they will stop

i guess velocity is my best bet

[vast ledge]

So the entire path?

[proven musk]

yes I said no before they asked that

[vast ledge]

You should just be able to use velo and launch them in the direction

[proven musk]

but idk how to do that while perserving their original veloicty

[honest echo]

you can loop through all locations between start and end location and check if theres a block

[proven musk]

blocks have different collisions

[young knoll]

You can check that

[proven musk]

that would have alot a jank

idk maybe I cant do what i want to do

[honest echo]

so like if its a slab player wont stop right ?

[proven musk]

without a client side mod

[honest echo]

you can make a list for such materials

[proven musk]

headache mode

basically im trying to make a grappling hook lmao and if the player is further away from the hook than the original distance then they will be pulled into the distance

which probably wont work

since any server lag will make it super jank

[young knoll]

Best to just use velocity for that

[honest echo]

you can launch player with velocity

[young knoll]

Believe that’s all Mojang did in the potato snapshot

[vast ledge]

Yea, just calculate the velo, and then launch em

[honest echo]

it will handle collisions itself

[proven musk]

thats what I tried first

it doesn't feel great

[honest echo]

mhmm

[proven musk]

since its basically a bungee cord

probably have to settle for removing gravity and pulling them towards the point

[peak depot]

are there any good spigot thread that are about procedual generating structres/caves?

[honest echo]

if youre planning to update location constantly

it will look super laggy

[proven musk]

yeah ill use velocity for that

[vast ledge]

Yea

please

velo is the easiest

[proven musk]

but ill freeze their velocity when the hook hits

[vast ledge]

wdym?

[proven musk]

basically the deep rock galactic grapple hook

[vast ledge]

No idea what that is sorry

[proven musk]

basically they will jump, shoot the hook, and then move linearly towards the hook point and not swing

[honest echo]

why not just add the velocity to existing velocity ?

[vast ledge]

Yea, use velo for that

they wont swing

[proven musk]

I dont like how that feels

[proven musk]

I will
