[eternal oxide]

lore is a String list so will never match a String

[sleek estuary]

to avoid exceptions

[sleek estuary]

He's clearly trying to program for minecraft without understanding java. I was one of those 😂

[wintry elk]

i indeed am

[obsidian wolf]

Don’t bully him he’s very new to Java

Unlike me, a pro

[eternal oxide]

change .equals to .contains

[obsidian wolf]

I was about to say that!

😂😭

[sleek estuary]

and check if item, meta and lore is null

[eternal oxide]

he already checks it has lore

and has meta

[sleek estuary]

oh yes

I am sleeping

im sorry

just need to check the item yourself

[tender shard]

what's the issue? getContents() might return null items iirc so you can't just call getType()

[eternal oxide]

Actually, do NOT loop the inventory contents. You shoudl get the consumed item from the event

you are literally tryign to check the item they just consumed

[obsidian wolf]

I have a question, can you still run all that code and have a .json file and a custom texture?

[eternal oxide]

not a random one from their inventory

[tender shard]

what even is the issue besides "just don't work"?

[wintry elk]

i just couldnt figure out how to grab an items lore without getting an error about it being null

[obsidian wolf]

Anyone know?

[eternal oxide]

do not use inventoyr

[tender shard]

as said, check if the item is null before calling any methods on it

[eternal oxide]

use the item from teh event and replace .equals with .contains

done

[tender shard]

and this ^ still important information to not blindly call getType() on everything that Inventory#getContents() returns because some of them might be null

[obsidian wolf]

😭 Does anyoneee know??

[tender shard]

no need to ask every 1.5 minutes

[tender shard]

#help-development message

you can bump your question again in 10 minutes or something but don't ask every 30 seconds pls

[eternal oxide]

I have no idea what he is asking

[next dew]

I dont understand the question

[tender shard]

i also dont get the question

[next dew]

Things dont even seem related

[wintry elk]

i think he means like a custom model for it or something

[tender shard]

ah they're probably talking about custom model data + resource pack

[obsidian wolf]

yessir

exactly

[eternal oxide]

We still have no idea what you are actually asking though

[obsidian wolf]

Okay, so basically can you import a 3d model texture onto a plug-in?

Or does it have to be a completely seperate texture pack

like

using the client

idk

[next dew]

A plugin is a thing and a texture pack is another

[obsidian wolf]

nvm pretend like I was never here

and I don’t exist

[slender elbow]

https://tenor.com/view/image-perms-no-image-perms-image-perms-flex-gif-23244245

[tender shard]

you'll need a resource pack. you can merge different resource packs ofc so you don't need a "completely seperate" one

[obsidian wolf]

wait that’s the perfect answer wtf

[eternal oxide]

I believe you can now specify multiple (I think)

[slender elbow]

but what about my 1.3.2 server

[tender shard]

really? that is awesome.

if it's not possible however, or you're using older versions: Here's how you can easily merge resource packs: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/resourcepackmerger.103875/

[eternal oxide]

play chess!?

[potent atlas]

when someone gets a chance I am struggling with custom config files, keeps rejecting the path I give it. I can show the file. I know the code, I just can't seem to find an example of how to write the path. thanks!

[young knoll]

Yeah you can have multiple server resource packs as of 1.20.3

[tender shard]

File chestsYml = new File(myPluginInstance.getDataFolder(), "chests.yml");

[young knoll]

They just layer like normal packs do

They also get downloaded async

[tender shard]

fanceeeh

that means I can stop updating my resource pack merger haha

[potent atlas]

oh my bad I said my question wrong

I'm writing paths -inside- the file to get the values

[tender shard]

persons:
  mfnalex:
    age: 29
    address: Münster

myConfig.getInt("persons.mfnalex.age") -> 29

or what's your question?

or do you rather mean something like this:

persons:
  mfnalex:
    something: asd
  someoneElse:
     something: asd

and now you want a list of "mfnalex, someoneElse"?

If so you do it like this:

ConfigurationSection persons = myConfig.getConfigurationSection("persons");
Collection<String> personNames = persons.getKeys(false);

[potent atlas]

the first example is the closest

[tender shard]

maybe you could show us your config and then tell us which data you need, that'd be helpful

[potent atlas]

yep

one sec

ok here https://pastebin.com/j4XvXCpd

I need the x, y, z etc. for each point

[tender shard]

I see, gimme a minute. Let's assume you got a class like this:

public class TeleportPoint {
  public int x, y, z;

  public TeleportPoint(int x, int y, int z) {
    this.x = x;
    // etc
  }

[tender shard]

And now you can basically do this, and loop over the result of getKeys

example:

List<TeleportPoint> tpList = new ArrayList<>();

// This is the whole "teleport-points" section
ConfigurationSection tpPoints = myConfig.getConfigurationSection("steps.step1.teleport-points");

// This loops over "point1", "point2", etc
for(String tpName : tpPoints.getKeys(false)) {

  // This gets you the section for each point
  ConfigurationSection teleportPoint = tpPoints.getConfigurationSection(tpName);
  // Now you can get each point's values
  tpList.add(new TeleportPoint(tpPoint.getInt(x), tpPoint.getInt(y), ...);

sth like this, sorry I'm on the phone. But I hope you get the idea

[potent atlas]

ohhh I'm stupid, I see where I went wrong. I can work with that! thank you!

[tender shard]

alternatively, if do not need the names (point1, point2) etv you can use a map list

points:
  - x: 1
    y: 2
    z: 3
  - x: 100
    y: 200
    z: 300

[potent atlas]

oh smart

[tender shard]

then you can use getMapList("points")

just a suggestion

hope that helps, I'm going to bed now, good night everyone!

[potent atlas]

goodnight ❤️

[zinc moat]

Edible blocks?

[twilit coral]

nope

[zinc moat]

Also question

[twilit coral]

it's the material you're .

[zinc moat]

how do i check the type like
Psueodo code
if block.type is diamond_ore

[twilit coral]

it is not assumed that the material that is returned from the block is a food item

type == Material.DIAMOND_ORE

[zinc moat]

alr thanks i tried using instanceof lol

[twilit coral]

yep np, for further reference all enums have that property, can compare using ==

[glacial moth]

Trying to set the max stack size, but doesn't seem to be setting

public static void setStackSize(ItemStack item){
        if(item == null) return;
        ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
        if(meta == null) return;
        meta.setMaxStackSize(1);
    }```

Running this of different events that cause new items, like ItemSpawn, PickUp, InventoryClick

[twilit coral]

did you set the itemmeta to the item

item.setitemmeta(x)

[tender shard]

Sniped

[glacial moth]

dam, sorry for the stupid mistake 🤦‍♂️ thank you

[young knoll]

NVM forgot about air

[zinc moat]

why is there nothing to break a block not natural, im trying to make it when a block gets mined it turns into a different block and then waits ... seconds to turn back

[young knoll]

setType

[zinc moat]

Ahhh

[kindred sentinel]

I want to remake text from 1 page of book to the lore, and after that an opposite -> lore to the text of books page, but I always have problems with enters (\n) if I'm trying to save them like new line, and after that add them for each line, then they're duplicating

[mortal hare]

couple years ago i thought that 16gb of ram would be enough for my usage

but now i peak at 15 gb of ram with no problems

fuck me

intellij eats ram like its disk space

4gb of ram

just for one project

[slender elbow]

i give it the minimum that i can and it works fine lol

[autumn ingot]

not entirely sure if this is a spigot question but is there any library to translate 3d models (e.g. from blockbench) into display entities?

[echo basalt]

ModelEngine v4 does it

Pretty sure magmaguy has something for it too

[autumn ingot]

oh hey illusion long time no see lol

[autumn ingot]

ill look into this

[worthy yarrow]

Some days I wish illusion would be in a call so I can voulenteer myself to get yelled at

[echo basalt]

20 bucks and I yell at you for an hour how about that

[echo basalt]

wsup man

Keep in mind I was like 15 when we met so a lot has changed

[worthy yarrow]

20 bucks is like my weekly gas amount and to be fair, off 12 hours of work a week I need it D:

[echo basalt]

it's like half my net worth

[worthy yarrow]

It's like double mine

[worldly ingot]

You spend $20 on gas?

Are you driving a small motorcycle?

[slender elbow]

are you?

[worldly ingot]

No. My gas bill is like $100 per tank :(

[minor garnet]

does anyone know what math would apply to this, i have a vector (0, 0, -1) that would represent north (0 degrees or 360), but if i rotated this vector 45 degrees to the right, it would represent a vector x, how i get that degrees number i have that code,

        float yaw = (float) Math.toDegrees(Math.atan2(FRONT_DIRECTION.getX(), FRONT_DIRECTION.getZ()));
        yaw = (yaw + 360) % 360;```

which is returning wrong numbers

[wintry elk]

can someone tell me how to fix the error that says "Required Type : Collection | Provided : PotionEffect"

[echo basalt]

Z and X should be inverted in the atan2

p sure that's it

[meager spoke]

also why does it not allow me to add strength in here

[eternal oxide]

wrong import? Do you use nms too?

There is no FAST_DIGGING in the PotionEffectType Enum

in Spigot thats HASTE

ah I see, old version

[eternal oxide]

what version of Spigot?

In pre 1.13 Spigot STRENGTH was called INCREASE_DAMAGE

[tropic totem]

hello this is a weird question but can i ask a help about my problem because i try to create command on my plugin and when i try it , it was not register on my server

[karmic sapphire]

I keep on trying to build ImageFrames, but it isn't finding the dependenices in intellej. I have already build craftbukkit, and Spigot up to 1.17. https://github.com/LOOHP/ImageFrame I was wondering if anyone had any advice for me?

I'm also in vc lol

👀

[eternal oxide]

What error do you get building?

[tropic totem]

[karmic sapphire]

Here, one sec.

[eternal oxide]

The jar on your server is not the same as the code you are posting here

sorry wrong link
this one is the ghostbreeding.java
https://paste.md-5.net/bakadogifi.java

[karmic sapphire]

https://mclo.gs/8FPqHWc

[eternal oxide]

your plugin.yml is not the one in yoru jar. run clean before Package in maven

[karmic sapphire]

Oh ok i'll try that. thx ( :

[karmic sapphire]

Okay, so I should clean first, then package right? If so, it failed. : / https://mclo.gs/5jsQheA

[eternal oxide]

Is there a reason you are trying to build ImageFrame over using it as a dependency?

[karmic sapphire]

Yes, I'd like to make changes to it, but first well, I want to be able to build it .

[eternal oxide]

did you build spigot using Buildtools?

[karmic sapphire]

Yes!

[eternal oxide]

its wierd as this design is rubbish in ImageFrame

it shoudl be using Spigot not spigot-api and there shoudl be no craftbukkit dependency at all

[karmic sapphire]

yea tbh idek whats going on there

[eternal oxide]

Buildtools doesn;t even build CB by default now

[karmic sapphire]

Yea, but it was easy enough to select the option to build it

[eternal oxide]

are you 100% certain you build 1.16.1?

[karmic sapphire]

YEa

is that something I can send here lol

the build?

[eternal oxide]

the build?

[karmic sapphire]

In any case yes

[eternal oxide]

its failing building the abstraction

those are CB, what about spigot?

they are also downloads not maven repos

[eternal oxide]

it must be installed in yoru local maven repo to be seen by maven

[karmic sapphire]

I had to download java 14 to build all the dependencies for this lol

[eternal oxide]

browse to C:\users\yourname\.m2\repository\org\spigotmc

you should have a spigot-api folder if you built with BT

[karmic sapphire]

What does BT stand for?

[eternal oxide]

Buildtools

?bt

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/buildtools/

[karmic sapphire]

Ohh

ok

[eternal oxide]

you can double click it to run as it now has a UI

[karmic sapphire]

Oddly I dont see it

[eternal oxide]

then you did not build using BuildTools

[karmic sapphire]

But I used this?

[eternal oxide]

my spigotmc folder

[shadow night]

Interesting lol

[karmic sapphire]

Thx, that was a good guide

Im basically there now lol

I didn't go into the .m2 folder

at first

[eternal oxide]

ah

[karmic sapphire]

lol

[tardy delta]

Windows 7 hehe

[eternal oxide]

This is my spigot-api

[karmic sapphire]

Oh god

[eternal oxide]

the best 🙂

[tardy delta]

Linux is the best apart from windows

[eternal oxide]

I have never liked Linux. I've tried it a few times but it's just not as comfortable as Win7

[tardy delta]

Takes a while to get used to the missing pieces

[karmic sapphire]

So your saying it must be installed in my local maven repo to be seen by maven. Will I be able to just drag my jars into the folder and have it work lol?

[eternal oxide]

no

[karmic sapphire]

Damn

[eternal oxide]

there is a command you can install with though

I'm sure alex has a post about it, one sec

Here https://blog.jeff-media.com/manually-installing-jar-files-to-your-local-maven-repository/

[karmic sapphire]

I’ll have to read about that, thanks (:

[eternal oxide]

the one I posted is about installing jars to maven repo

mvn install:install-file \
    -Dfile=somejar-1.0.jar \
    -DgroupId=com.github.someuser \
    -DartifactId=somejar \
    -Dversion=1.0 \
    -Dpackaging=jar```

[karmic sapphire]

Tyy

I’ll have to try this (:

[eternal oxide]

just change args to match what you are installing

or, just run buildtools for each version you need

it auto installs to maven repo

[karmic sapphire]

Yea, what I originally did is build it on one pc, then transfer the jars to the other.

I am just doing it on the pc I built it on orignally

instead.

[stoic parrot]

If anyone could help (:

[lilac dagger]

Wrong task?

[worthy yarrow]

Uh try

public void stopTimer() {
    if (taskId != null){
       taskId.cancel;
       taskId = null;
      }       
   }``` 

maybe?

Also that is a funky way of doing tasks

[eternal oxide]

you constantly reset the timeInterval to teh config setting so it never really decreases

[stoic parrot]

Can you tell me a better way to do it?

[worthy yarrow]

public static void applySweatEffect(Player player) {
        applySweatEffect = new BukkitRunnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                player.spawnParticle(Particle.WATER_DROP, player.getLocation().add(0, 1.6, 0), 3, 0.1, 0.2, 0.1);
            }
        }.runTaskTimerAsynchronously(seasons, 5, 100);
    }```

I do mine like this

Idk if its better

[stoic parrot]

oh Runnable

[worthy yarrow]

It's the same thing I'm pretty sure

[eternal oxide]

oh I see, you reset after it counts down

You never call the stopTimer in that code.

[stoic parrot]

I call it in a command

[worthy yarrow]

I assumed since it was a public method, that call comes from somewhere else

[eternal oxide]

then there is no reason for it to not cancel

unless you are calling startTimer when its already running

[stoic parrot]

I call stopTimer & then call startTimer

[proper cosmos]

How can I track when someone gets item out of Brewing Stand?

[eternal oxide]

Then there is no reason your task would not stop unless its throwing an error from the scheduler

[stoic parrot]

There is no error, I can send you how I call it.

[eternal oxide]

yep

[stoic parrot]

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

[eternal oxide]

What makes you think teh task is not stopping?

[stoic parrot]

While testing, when i run the /reset-timer command the timer should restart at that time correct? well it does not it just goes on how it was

[eternal oxide]

the timer will not reset on cancel as its external to the task

it will remain at whatever it was last at

[stoic parrot]

It was working fine before though

[eternal oxide]

you need to reset the timeInterval before you start your task

top of startTimer method

[stoic parrot]

okay! I'll do that and let you know the result.

[worthy yarrow]

It's a curious ask, but why do you need an exception for console command?

Is the system supposed to be ran through console commands?

[stoic parrot]

So that it could do the keyall events

Automatically

[worthy yarrow]

Gotcha

[stoic parrot]

Thanks, it works perfectly now!

[next kernel]

Hi there, anyone know how to send a chat with Item hover event with BungeeChat on Spigot 1.20.5+?
I tried 3 ways to send chat:

    @Override
    public void sendNBTDebug(ItemStack stack, @NotNull CommandSender sender) {
        // test with NBTAPI
        String nbtapi = NBT.itemStackToNBT(stack).toString();
        System.out.println("NBTAPI: "+ nbtapi);
        sendNBTDebugActually(stack.getType().getKey().toString(), nbtapi, sender);
        // test with NMS
        DataComponentPatch patch = CraftItemStack.asNMSCopy(stack).getComponentsPatch();
        String nmsPatch = DataComponentPatch.CODEC.encodeStart(NbtOps.INSTANCE, patch).getOrThrow().getAsString();
        System.out.println("NMS-DataComponentPatch: "+nmsPatch);
        sendNBTDebugActually(stack.getType().getKey().toString(), nbtapi, sender);
        // test with NMS stack
        String nmsStack = net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack.CODEC.encodeStart(NbtOps.INSTANCE, CraftItemStack.asNMSCopy(stack)).getOrThrow().getAsString();
        System.out.println("NMS-ItemStack: "+nmsStack);
        sendNBTDebugActually(stack.getType().getKey().toString(), nbtapi, sender);
    }

    private void sendNBTDebugActually(String key, String nbt, CommandSender sender) {
        net.md_5.bungee.api.chat.HoverEvent hoverEvent = new net.md_5.bungee.api.chat.HoverEvent(net.md_5.bungee.api.chat.HoverEvent
                .Action.SHOW_ITEM,
                new Item(key, 1,
                        ItemTag.ofNbt(nbt)));
        BaseComponent component = TextComponent.fromLegacy("Hover on this");
        component.setHoverEvent(hoverEvent);
        sender.spigot().sendMessage(component);
    }

However, I didn't get any luck on them (all ways just show regular item infomations without special name and lores)

Console Outputs:

[grim hound]

no idea

[next kernel]

ah, alright

[grim hound]

this should work, so maybe some 1.20.5 changes

[next kernel]

yea it break since 1.20.5

[sullen marlin]

Start by figuring out the correct tellraw I guess

Sure you aren't after .getAsComponentString ?

You don't need nms for this

[next kernel]

ah! I didn't notice this API, has it been around for a long time? I'm definitely will switch over to the Bukkit API if it exists 👍

[stone turret]

Hey there

Spigot version 1.20.4
Problem:
So, I am currently having an issue trying to remove all commands from the tab completions list and only showing the commands from my own plugin as well as making it where people cannot do luckperms or other commands in the chat. Its still showing the commands in the tablist completions (some of them) and as well as allowing players to do /luckperms and other commands even though in my plugin is explicitly denying that permission??

My code:
https://paste.md-5.net/moyazifore.cs

Bully all you want :( but I tried EVERYTHING lmao

I will be going to sleep so ping me if you have some sort of potential solution please 🙏

[eternal oxide]

?fork

[undone axle]

SpigotMC maintains the Spigot server. If you are using a fork of Spigot (such as Paper, Airplane, Purpur, or other derivative works), you should seek support in the appropriate Discord servers.

oopsie

It was copy paste uhh

I emant spigot

obviously :)

[next kernel]

Paper has a lot of internal changes under the API, and Spigot's solution may not be applicable to Paper.

[eternal oxide]

UnknownCommandEvent is not in Spigot

[stone turret]

https://tenor.com/view/funny-uh-ok-shy-gif-13015578

😢

Literally any ounce of help would be appreciated even it doesnt even correlate to what i have.

[orchid trout]

you can disable all tab completions in the config

[eternal oxide]

There is an event to modify the commands sent for tab complete

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/player/PlayerCommandSendEvent.html

just modify the Collection

[stone turret]

Yeah that goes against what Im doing.

Because I dont want to hide all commands. I just want to hide all commands that arent in my own plugin. There is no need for any other plugins commands.

[eternal oxide]

^

PlayerCommandSendEvent

[orchid trout]

if people dont have the permission they shouldnt be able to tab complete the commands anyways

maps are such a cringe solution

[eternal night]

Well

with datapacks yea

[inner mulch]

will there be no api :(?

if its possible with datapacks its possible with plugins too, right?

[tall dragon]

in the future yea. thats pretty likely

[eternal night]

Well its tricky

Editing the registries like that has to happen at a very very early point in time.

[dawn flower]

soo

[inner mulch]

in what way early?

[eternal night]

Well registries are frozen by minecraft once created. All that fun stuff happens before plugins are even loaded.

the reloadable stuff like enchantments you can technically edit down the line tho

its just a bit annoying to do so outside the normal lifecycle for the registries

[inner mulch]

ok

[eternal night]

idk, I mean, problem with an API for this kind of jazz is that, as you might be able to tell by "data version 42", the format also changes rapidly

an api around that might not really be able to live as long as you'd like it to

in terms of cross version compatibility

[dawn flower]

tf r the registries

commands n stuff?

[eternal night]

they are the source for pretty much any data in the game

ah

can u custom color (hex) concrete or wool

cuz that'd be hella cool

what's the new Wool class?

[worthy yarrow]

I've been (painfully) toying with packet events using the wrappers to try and make leaves colorful for autumn effects (my seasons plugin)

[worthy yarrow]

I'm pretty sure it's possible... it's what I am trying to do lol

[dawn flower]

i dont think leaves can be colorful unless u make ur own leaves with block displays

[worthy yarrow]

We'll see

[dawn flower]

if concrete can be colored then display blocks can make all cartoony stuff (no textures)

yeah wool cant be colored

then either files or a database

How does deluxehub do it?

[valid burrow]

a yml file id guess

nothing wrong with that lol

They gotta have something xd

just use a yml file

nothing wrong with that

[valid burrow]

he can always upgrade to virtually anything its 1 value

db would be pointless here

I don't need a database to just save 1 spawn loc

no other api/plugin needs to know another servers spawn

on his PC? no

why not just use PDC

?

[tender shard]

please do not the cat

[tender shard]

not without client mods

[grim hound]

will not the cat

also what's the purpose, if players can choose any nickname they want in offline mode, they also can just copy over every file that you want to store on their PC

ofc it is unideal, the proper solution is online mode

[eternal oxide]

do you mean exploding or breaking due to explosion?

[outer tendon]

Hey guys, I need a bit of advice. I'm building a mini-game, but the games will have different types, like solos, doubles, fours, etc., each of which will have different numbers of teams and max team sizes. I am wondering how I should define this behavior. Should I use Game class properties like numberOfTeams and maxTeamSize, or should I use an enum? I know I could also define an enum with these properties, but that might defeat the point of the enum since Id have to grab those in order to determine what type of game it is.

[dawn flower]

breaking due to explosion

[eternal oxide]

then as Emily said

the block list is mutable for removal.

boats have a maximum speed and explosions will not "push" them

[tepid turret]

nope lols

the way i've seen plugins do it is by just increasing the velocity

problem is you need to know when to and when not to increase the velocity

one plugin did this by only increasing the velocity while players were holding a special item.

could see it working but problem is it would get rid of blocks and cause issues for other players

plus during lag that breaks completelty

velocity is the way i'd do it.

Maybe give the player an item while in boats?

or (i know this defeats the point of a spigot server) have the players download a mod that will send specific keystrokes as a packet to the server

then get those packets and increase the boat speed when said keystrokes are being pressed

how do i set attribute for entity?

[valid burrow]

entity.getAtribute.setWhatEver iirc

[plush sluice]

nah getAttibute does not exist

[tepid turret]

Not from the overaching entity class

you gotta go to the specifc class

Example for a ghast instead of doing

Entity ghast = (whatever here)
ghast.getAttribute();

it'd be

Ghast ghast = (whatever here)
...

[valid burrow]

yep thats it

not all entities have the same atributes

thats why

[tepid turret]

yea

[plush sluice]

uh

[trim lake]

I can't decide correctly when to use interace or abstract class. I would like to make a plugin that will manage the location as a trigger. So the player sets with a command the location as a trigger. Another player clicks on that trigger and sends it to the chat, opens the inventory... or whatever. There will the Trigger class for each type of trigger. Should I make an interface for the main Trigger class or should this abstract? I was thinking about an abstract class because each trigger will have a List of requirements. I'm trying to understand when to use an abstract class and when to use an interface.
I read some articles about that but Im still confused lol

[plush sluice]

but it works tho

ty

[valid burrow]

you probably shouldnt learn it spigot related

learn it with vanilla java first

ad then apply that logic to spigot

[eternal oxide]

different trigger types will have many comonalities so abstract

[tepid turret]

    public String getData(OfflinePlayer player, String query) throws SQLException {
        if (!playerExists(player)) addPlayer(player);
        if (sqlContains(query) != 1) return null;
        try (PreparedStatement preparedStatement = connection.prepareStatement("SELECT ? FROM Players WHERE uuid = ?")) {
            preparedStatement.setString(1, query);
            preparedStatement.setString(2, player.getUniqueId().toString());
            ResultSet resultSet = preparedStatement.executeQuery();
            if (resultSet.next()) return resultSet.getString(query);
            else return null;
        }
    }

When using this code and parsing through the player and lang
it returns "No such column 'lang'

But:

the column literally exists

[trim lake]

I mean I know difference between that and thats why Im asked here to get learn with spigot logic to learn it more easily.

[trim lake]

That was what I tought as well, tbh. I kinda dont need lot of variables or anything it will be mostly methods and they probably wont be scenerio when I will use same method in multiple triggers, that's why Im thinking about interface as well. I was working on one project with someone before when we were creating custom drinks and food and there we used interface for some reason... That what confused me

I kinda know how to do it and stuff but Im strugling on correct logic on thinks need some mentor/couch or smtn like that lol.

[inner mulch]

Abstract Class -> inheritance
Interface -> composition

[trim lake]

that is the simplest explanation and at the same time the best lol

[inner mulch]

Yeah, I would say Interfaces are used when u have broad ranges of implementations with many different fields and stuff, while inheritance should only be used if you really use ALL that this class offers

[sullen canyon]

abstract classes, interfaces

[inner mulch]

Pizza interface

[sullen canyon]

they are all like a pizza

[inner mulch]

You can compose your Pizza with different ingeredients but it remains food so it can have the food interface with the eat method

[sullen canyon]

it follows the builder pattern to make diff pizzas

[trim lake]

I mean.. at the custom items state. I would do that with abstract class. I would create an abstract class CustomItem where it would be protected field ItemStack item and int uses with 2 methods getRemaining() (witch I would probably define in abstract class, becaouse every item will have same) and abstract void consume(Player player) method. But guy told me this is blueshit. The way how it was done was interface with getuses method and use method. Than every class had ItemStack and uses field but that why I would use abstract class to avoid that making same field for every class.

[inner mulch]

Im not sure about all the impl details, but all mentioned seems like it should be an abstract class

[trim lake]

I mean for me it make seasn make it interface bcs not only item is think what u can eat, but still... For me it seams to be pointless to have that as interface when its only for items. I cant rly find ussage for interface for what ever Im doing lol. I started feeling wrong bcs of that.

It was done like this:

public interface Consumable {
   int getRemaining();

   void consume(Player var1);
}

public class Juice implements Consumable {
   private ItemStack item;
   int getRemaining() {
   blabla   
  }

   void consume(Player var1) {
   blabla   
  }
}

[inner mulch]

Yeah thats good

[trim lake]

I would still use abstract class as I mentioned, lol.But I think I get it. It can be something other then ItemStack like block (Cake) or something probably thats why and thats why it was done this way.

[inner mulch]

Yes

[eternal oxide]

Interfaces are more used to control what is exposed.

and to seperate API from implementation

[icy beacon]

ocp

[trim lake]

This is my fight basicly:

public interface JobTrigger {

    void handle();
    boolean meetsRequirements(Player player);

}

public class TestTrigger implements JobTrigger {

    @Override
    public void handle() {

    }

    @Override
    public boolean meetsRequirements(Player player) {
        return false;
    }
}

vs

public abstract class JobTriggerAbs {

    private List<Requirement> requirementsList = new ArrayList<>();

    abstract void handle(Player player);

    boolean meetsRequirements(Player player) {
        boolean results = true;
        for (Requirement reg : requirementsList ) {
            if (!requirementsList.meat()) {
                results = false
                break;
            }
        }
        return results;
    }

}
public class TestTrigger extends JobTriggerAbs {

    @Override
    public void handle(Player player) {
        if (!meetsRequirements(player)) return;
    }

}

Sure I can load requirements from config in meetsRequirements method thats why I cant decide, lol 😄 But since the requirements is same Im closely to use abstract class rather then interface. Thats probably correct?

[proper cosmos]

Can I somehow change max stack size of Material.POTION (in player's inventory)?

[valid burrow]

yeah u can set the max stack size of an itemstack i think

[proper cosmos]

Nope, there's only way to getMaxStackSize

[valid burrow]

let me check the method

itemmeta#setmaxstacksize

@proper cosmos

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/inventory/meta/ItemMeta.html#setMaxStackSize(java.lang.Integer)

[proper cosmos]

Yeah, but I mean changing it globally for Material.POTION

not certain ItemStack

[slender elbow]

no

you'd have to check for every potion itemstack and run that method

[trim lake]

Im trying to get it. So there will be Food interface. Than the Pizzaabstract class with will implements food interface that will be extended with HawaiPizza class (yes ananas belong on pizza lol)? I would make pizza abstract because it will have some eat method as every other pizza. I guess I get it if yes.

anyway thanks guys thats helped me.

[eternal oxide]

Don't over abstract

[trim lake]

yeah.. that what I want to prevent as well

[inner mulch]

I dont think his idea is overabstracted

Its perfectly fine

[icy beacon]

he just wants to comply with ocp

[inner mulch]

Thats ocp

[eternal oxide]

yeah I was just advising against things like food -> pizza -> Hawaiian.

the pizza abstraction would be pointless in that instance

[slender elbow]

"the pizza abstraction" sounds like a research paper a uni student started as a joke but actually published

[icy beacon]

look at this function signature 😍

  ): Pair<T, File>? = coroutineScope {

look at the usage 😍

suspend fun downloadPack(id: Long): Pair<EnchantmentPack, File>? = downloadAndParse({ api.downloadPack(id) }) { input, name ->

JDK 8 compiles Spigot 1.20.3 perfectly

it would be for 1.16/1.17 instead

its impossible to build spigot 1.20.3 (using Buildtools) with java 8

Click the maven button and find the double arrow (circular lookin) button

Try that first

then do the caches

[chrome beacon]

Are you using Essentials as the economy plugin

[storm crystal]

how can I add an empty object in yaml

[nova quail]

Coinsengine now

[storm crystal]

so that I'd have statistics:

[tardy delta]

please dont use a singleton for your plugin instance

im thinking all people follow the same stupid tutorial

[worthy yarrow]

I feel like this is something you might want to introduce a db to

[storm crystal]

?

I literally

spent

like

5 hours

switching to yaml

[tardy delta]

why

[worthy yarrow]

Yeah why

[storm crystal]

because db is apparently "unnecessary"

[tardy delta]

yaml is trash

[worthy yarrow]

What all are you trying to store?

What do these statistics bubble down to?

[storm crystal]

nothing at this point

amazing

[pseudo hazel]

both things didnt work

[worthy yarrow]

... What are you trying to do with the statistics

[lilac dagger]

sqlite sounds like a better place to store statistics

[worthy yarrow]

Flat file could work for this but a db would just offer you so much more

Idk who told you to just use flat files for this but they were kinda wrong or just not thinking in expandability / maintainability

[pseudo hazel]

why not

[storm crystal]

none of your business at this point

this is trash, that is trash

everything is trash at this rate

so why even bother doing this

[pliant topaz]

try the 'Repair IDE' button and basically do everything it suggests including the IDE restarts etc, normally fixes most of the issues if 'Invalidate Caches' doesn't work

[worthy yarrow]

...

Well now that's a reaction I haven't seen before

[worthy yarrow]

I mean yeah ide's be buggin sometimes, usually the buttons work but sometimes you just gotta hard reset the application

Oops sorry to ping ya

[pliant topaz]

haha np

[pliant topaz]

yep, IntelliJ once completely deleted every of my imported maven libs and completely screwed up my VCS, took around an hour setting it up again, love it

[worthy yarrow]

How did it fuck the vcs?? lmao

[pliant topaz]

idfk, it just all broke somehow, my code suddenly had over 1k+ errors inside each class like tf 😂

[worthy yarrow]

Ahaha so it literally just poofed all the lib depends?

[pliant topaz]

excactly

just went 'Avada Kedavra' on my libs lmfao

[worthy yarrow]

Aw thats messed up man

I think that's the issue with intelliJ is that it's too good, meaning there are just too many modules / features for it to run 100% all of the time

[storm crystal]

I want a <String, Integer> hashmap statistics that is stored in yaml in that sequence:

statistics:
  one: 1
  two: 2
  three: 3

, but I can't seem to initialize it when the player is joining for the first time, because fetching newly made object from yaml file returns nullpointerexception, it can't create statistics: object, because it gets every element from it, and since it's not created, it has null

I temporarily fixed it by adding check variable into it that is set to 1 for the sake of filling it and creating the statistics object

[pliant topaz]

but hey, works most of the time haha

[worthy yarrow]

have you tried saving that flat file before access?

[kind hatch]

You can set the value to 0

[worthy yarrow]

Ie: player joins -> add elements -> save file -> access file

[worthy yarrow]

You could do that too, I'm not sure if that's an issue or not I just thought you meant you wanted an empty value

[storm crystal]

setting it to 0

who would've thought

[worthy yarrow]

uh

[kind hatch]

Your doing it wrong somehow

[worthy yarrow]

^

[eternal night]

I mean, yea statistics isn't a configuration section

[worthy yarrow]

0 isn't null

[eternal night]

its a scalar value

you can do get instead

and instanceOf it

[worthy yarrow]

And I know you don't want to hear it buttttttt you could go back to db

[eternal night]

nah

stick to yaml

[worthy yarrow]

... why?

[storm crystal]

fuck off with that, seriously

[lilac dagger]

mojang uses flat files

[eternal night]

there is 0 gain with moving to yaml here for them

[lilac dagger]

it isn't that big of a deal

[storm crystal]

I am not going to postpone project for 2932934923th time because someone tells me to change data saving way

"because X is trash"

[eternal night]

Yea

just use get instead of getconfigurationsection

and then instanceOf the object you get

[kind hatch]

Why would you do this when all of the #getX() methods exist?

[eternal night]

literally because of the above

[pseudo hazel]

still didnt work

[eternal night]

getConfigurationSection will yield null if you call it for a non section

[worthy yarrow]

Wtf

[eternal night]

for all I care you can also just null check it

[pseudo hazel]

I just think maybe there is something wrong with the setup

[storm crystal]

what do I do with it then

[eternal night]

well you just check if that is null

if it is null, the player does not have any statistics

[storm crystal]

I really dont know how to make statistics: appear

that doesnt really do much

[kind hatch]

Try #createSection()

[eternal night]

oh, just set it to an empty hashmap I think?

[storm crystal]

okay, this works

[quaint mantle]

Hello, I am having trouble extending an entity to make a custom mob, at the moment I am trying to do

public class DesertZombie extends Husk {
however it wants me to implement like 300 methods, and doesn't have a super Cannot resolve method 'super' in 'DesertZombie'

all the tutorials I've seen use things such as EntityZombieHusk but I don't have that class somehow? can I get some support on this I can't find any good docs

[inner mulch]

Isnt Husk an interface

[quaint mantle]

import org.bukkit.entity.Husk;

it is

[inner mulch]

Okay so, spigot is not for making mods

[quaint mantle]

I want a mob with a custom name and a healthbar

and I want it to be its own class

[inner mulch]

You need to use fabric or forge or whatever the tutorial guy is using

[lilac dagger]

createsection

[pseudo hazel]

well you cant just implement mobs like this

you need some kinda wrapper

[quaint mantle]

they're all using plugins

[lilac dagger]

or add values to the section

[inner mulch]

No they arent

[inner mulch]

EntityZombieHusk doesnt exist, they are using something else than spigot

[quaint mantle]

Advanced Spigot Coding | Custom Pathfinder Goals [Pet Plugin] | (Ep. 6) Spigot 1.15

[inner mulch]

Yes and this tutorial is not showing how to make an entity

[worthy yarrow]

Good thing we're only at 1.20.6 now

[grizzled mountain]

Say I wanna transmit data from a plugin to the world using redstone pulses. What's a reasonably efficient way to power and unpower redstone? Would switching a block's material between wire and redstone blocks quickly using Block.setType be horribly slow?

[quaint mantle]

I have no clue how they've changed the API since then

[worthy yarrow]

There are plenty of changes most of which you don't have to really worry about until 1.20.5

[inner mulch]

The changes dont matter, the guy is using nms classes in the tutorial

[worthy yarrow]

Yeah uh friendly advice: learn spiogt api before delving into nms 💀

[inner mulch]

He wants pathfinding

So he needs to

[worthy yarrow]

Hmm

Welp I'm just gonna say sorry about the headaches in advance

[storm crystal]

can I apply several pdcs of same name on the item?

but different values?

[eternal night]

no

how would you get exactly one back

[slender elbow]

you ask nicely of course

[worthy yarrow]

What if you did a map<String, PDC> for each item or wtv then all your containers are cached in that map?

[river oracle]

Yeah that's called a list

A list allows you to store multiple things

[worthy yarrow]

Does it matter whether its a list or a map

[river oracle]

Maps don't allow for identical keys to different values

Lists don't have keys

Boom

[worthy yarrow]

Oh

I mean

Yeah I forgot he said they should be the same key or wtv

[frosty geyser]

Hi, I was wondering if you can silence a dispatchCommand (for example Bukkit.dispatchCommand(Bukkit.getConsoleSender(), "give %player% minecraft:dirt 1");) to not send a message to console of CONSOLE issued server command: /give %player% minecraft:dirt 1 on 1.20.4

[young knoll]

Why are you making console run commands

[frosty geyser]

allowing configurable rewards in config and I don't want their console to spam constantly

and to allow the rewards to be whatever (even items from other plugins) having commands to execute it to give the user the items would be the best method for it all from what I can think of.

[worthy yarrow]

Hmmm, new project or fix the performance issues with seasons?

[pseudo hazel]

could it be because the library project is not a plugin on its own?

like its literally a project with a pom file and a class with a single static method in its thats just public static String test() { return "hey";}

but yet my intellij doesnt find it, even though it has found the repo and if I open the jar with 7zip I can see the method in the jar file

omg

im stupid

I forgot to add a package with teh group id into the project

so I guess it didnt count

well its fixed now xD

another question, how do I put it on github, because this is now in a completely different place, but I want people potentially working on the plugin to not run into build issues, how do I make sure that the dependency can be used even when downloading from github

[storm crystal]

is there a better way to check if Namedspacedkey is null?

I dont feel like its legit, although it works

[sand spire]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[storm crystal]

try {
                weaponDamage = Integer.parseInt(ItemPDC.getPDC(physicalElement + " Damage", weapon).toLowerCase().replace(" ", "_"));
            } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
                weaponDamage = 0;
            }```

[glass mauve]

you shouldnt use try catch in this case probably

[storm crystal]

great

I know it

but what else do I use

[glass mauve]

depends, where is that IllegalArgumentException coming from

my guess is that you use PersistentDataContainer, it has either the get method which can return nullable/throw IllegalArgumentException
so instead maybe use PersistentDataContainer#getOrDefault

cant provide more help without more context

[river oracle]

Wrong in this situation.

Try catch likely comes from the int parse

[glass mauve]

is there a better way to check if Namedspacedkey is null?

[river oracle]

Not sure why we're not just storing an int tho

[glass mauve]

also parseInt doesnt throw IllegalArgumentException

[river oracle]

Ph facts

[glass mauve]

instead it throws NumberFormatException

[river oracle]

Kek

[brittle geyser]

It is real to copy text to clipboard when player clicks a gui?

[river oracle]

Not possible 99% sure you can only do this through chat

Unless you use a book

Then you can have the player click the text inside of if

[brittle geyser]

okay thanks

[tardy delta]

why not store it as an int

[river oracle]

Because !learnjava

Literally

[storm crystal]

there is osmething wrong

when I call ItemPDC method it returns null when in one class

but returns normal value when in another class

I like quadruple checked and PDCs are applied correctly

[tender shard]

show stacktrace, show code

[storm crystal]

it just returns null all the time

[eternal night]

check the item in game with /data get entity @s SelectedItem while holding it

for a quick sanity check if the PDC applied

[storm crystal]

where is it

[eternal night]

If you don't see PublicBukkitValues in that output, the pdc did not apply

[storm crystal]

can I apply several pdcs in one item

[eternal night]

the minecraft namespace

well, you use different namespaced keys

or a list

[storm crystal]

what do you mean different namespaced keys

[eternal night]

Well you set a value with a namespaced key for a key

[tender shard]

well, you use "myplugin:firstkey" -> first value
and "myplugin:secondkey" -> second value

[eternal night]

but I mean, depends on what you need/want

[tender shard]

PDC is basically a map

[storm crystal]

how is that not different keys

[tender shard]

that are different keys but why do you use the minecraft namespace

[eternal night]

I mean, depends on what you pass for "keyName"

presumably because they only pass "weapon"

it defaults to the minecraft namespace

[storm crystal]

thats the keyname

[tender shard]

I think from the screenshot it's visible that there's more PDC, isn't it?

they only sent the first line but it looks like the next line continues PDC data

[tender shard]

oh yeah that's only one key

[storm crystal]

why

[tender shard]

because as lynx said, entry.getKey() probably is always "minecraft:weapon"

[storm crystal]

it

is

not

two different keys

[glass mauve]

you sure your code really works though

[pseudo hazel]

they were referring to the minecraft: bit, which can be changed if you used a string format like the namespace i.e. myplugin:weapon

or if you create a key using your plugin instance

[kind hatch]

People should really just be doing this.

[pseudo hazel]

yeah, its fool proof pretty much

[storm crystal]

I hate this

[pseudo hazel]

im sure you can figure it out

[storm crystal]

how merciful of you

[pseudo hazel]

i mean, can you recap what youre stuck on

[storm crystal]

how to do several pdcs

[glass mauve]

do you want others to create your plugin? you arent appreciating any help lmao, asking low quality questions just to be mad at answers

[storm crystal]

as if your questions were the awesome quality

[tender shard]

show your whole code of creating the item and how you're giving it to the player

[glass mauve]

well one message isnt proof of anything, maybe look at the other 10

[storm crystal]

you got the relevant part

[glass mauve]

not really

[storm crystal]

rest is just item meta flavor

[pseudo hazel]

okay from the part I am seeing it should work

[tender shard]

well then it should work, good luck

if that would be the relevant part, then why does it not work lol

answer: because the relevant part must be somewhere in the code you haven't sent

[storm crystal]

you literally said what doesnt work

something about namespaced key

but you decide to gatekeep it

you know the issue

[tardy delta]

just use different keys

[storm crystal]

look

look

for a second

what do you see under keyName

since when they are equal

to eachother

tell me

[glass mauve]

you never shared the ItemPDC implementation

[storm crystal]

.

"never shared"

[tender shard]

#help-development message

[storm crystal]

happy?

[glass mauve]

ok thats mb, I didnt see it

[storm crystal]

I only get the last pdc tag that I put

[tender shard]

@storm crystal As I have already said, all the code you sent looks fine to me, except that you're using the minecraft namespace (which should still work).

But as you refuse to send more code, nobody can help you.

And if you repeat "I sent all the relevant code", then I now ask you: well then why doesn't it work?

[tender shard]

you store the Meta object, then set it back later

[storm crystal]

in human words?

[glass mauve]

bro ngl, learn java first

[eternal night]

getItemMeta yields you a snapshot.

it includes the ENTIRE state of the item's data

[river oracle]

Hi lynx

[tender shard]

quick fix: make your setPDC method take in an ItemMeta instead of ItemStack

[eternal night]

^

[river oracle]

Still helping this guy?

[eternal night]

I believe

[river oracle]

Interesting

[storm crystal]

so fucking stupid

[river oracle]

What is stupid

[storm crystal]

no

[river oracle]

I actually think ItemMeta is pretty nice API

[glass mauve]

lmao

[river oracle]

Worlds most productive help development

[tender shard]

You keep around different copies of ItemMeta. Then you add the PDC to another Meta copy, then set the item's meta back to the original copy.

That's why you only get one key.

As I said, the easiest fix, if you don't understand what this means, is to make setPDC take in an itemMeta. This will

1. fix your problem
2. be more performant as no copies of the meta have to be created all the time

[glass mauve]

bro asking for help, getting help, ignoring help

[tender shard]

alright, then good luck to you. Have a good night

[river oracle]

Help my plugin doesn't work!
Here is solution!
No!

[storm crystal]

I already fixed it

[glass mauve]

yeah whatever lmao

[storm crystal]

so whats your point

[river oracle]

🗣️

[tender shard]

you probably fixed it by moving around your setPDC calls, which is basically what I told you the problem is - keeping around different copies of the itemmeta

[storm crystal]

now tell me why this doesnt work

[tender shard]

no

[river oracle]

I fixed it. Why doesn't it work lmfao

[glass mauve]

read I guess
