[blazing ocean]

it provides you with a hash - but you have to reupload it for changes, gives you a different url

[tall saffron]

mc-packs.net

but it says i need a mcmeta

and i have one

[blazing ocean]

server.properties

[dire marsh]

make sure pack.mcmeta is at the root of your .zip

[blazing ocean]

oh yeah

i thought they meant to put it in their server config

[dire marsh]

also please provide a hash

it's super bad user experience not to

[blazing ocean]

also, if you're doing that - just scrap doing it via plugin, and rather do it via the server.properties

[tall saffron]

That was it

i zipped it wrong lol

[blazing ocean]

personally i use my custom cdn, or just a file host and upload my pack there, then hash it on server load

[tall saffron]

like it was inside the zip a folder then the resource pack

[tall saffron]

Yeah but i want to publish this plugin

I will do the hash manually as if i update the resource pack i will also have to publish it anyway 🤷‍♂️

[harsh ruin]

Quick question, does this check if the held item is null?

[dire marsh]

your ide is warning you, hover over it

[hazy parrot]

If its null, calling equals on it will throw npe

[dire marsh]

not just that, they're calling gettype on what might be null

[tall saffron]

How do i put the hash in my code?

[hazy parrot]

What

[tall saffron]

@EventHandler
    public void playerEntered(PlayerJoinEvent event){
        Player player = event.getPlayer();

        String texturePack = "https://download.mc-packs.net/pack/63af22dfb70aab544ae338f8687bf17d8423761a.zip";

        player.setResourcePack(texturePack,63af22dfb70aab544ae338f8687bf17d8423761a, "Please download this resourcepack for Legendary Swords to work!", true);
    }```

[blazing ocean]

string

[tall saffron]

oh yeah and .getbytes

Thanks allot

[blazing ocean]

although having a plugin depend on its own pack can cause all sorts of issues

like pack conflicts, as it overwrites the server pack

version issues

[harsh ruin]

What way is checking null(in my case)?

[blazing ocean]

(pre-1.19.3(i think .3?))

[harsh ruin]

.isEmpty()?

[dire marsh]

multiple resource packs were only added in 1.20.3 I believe

[tall saffron]

What would u tell me to do?

[glad prawn]

getItemInUse() != null ? wtf bro

[tall saffron]

I think making the server owner put manually the resource pack as the server resource pack is a bit much

[harsh ruin]

I'm still quite new to java👀

Thanks for helping though

[tall saffron]

Also it tells me my hash has to be 20 bytes and i think the mcpack.net generated is like 40

[dire marsh]

that method is weird from what i remember

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/get-20-bytes-long-sha1-hash-for-setresourcepack.438378/

[warm mica]

That string you have looks like hex, you might need to decode it https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/17/docs/api/java.base/java/util/HexFormat.html

[brittle geyser]

I broke intellij and now i cant push files into github.
What i should do?

[wet breach]

well I wouldn't like to be pushed either

[dapper flower]

you prob broke git not intellij

[brittle geyser]

nevermind

[dapper flower]

did you try forking something? maybe a merge conflict? does it say "failed to push unreleated histories" or smth

[brittle geyser]

merge conflict

[dapper flower]

"it broke" is a bit too generic

[dapper flower]

then it isn't broken you just have to address the merge conflicts and select which part of the code to keep

study how merge and rebase work with git and you should be fine

[blazing ocean]

ah, was .20 then

[sterile token]

Hii, what wrong with my method? Sections are not being created and i dont understand why

@Override
    public void set(String path, Object value) {
        if (path == null || path.isEmpty()) return;
        int index = path.indexOf(".");
        if (index != -1) {
            Object object = this.values.get(path.substring(0, index));
            //if (!(object instanceof ConfigSection)) return;
            newSection(path.substring(0, index)).set(path.substring(index + 1), value);
            System.out.println("section= " + path.substring(0, index) + " created");
            return;
        }
        if (value == null) {
            this.values.remove(path);
            return;
        }
        if (value instanceof Map) {
            //
            return;
        }
        System.out.println("route=" + path + " created");
        this.values.put(path, value);
    }```

[wet breach]

what do you mean sections are not being created?

you are trying to store an object without serializing it

[sterile token]

Let say i call my function set("path.child", "test") then section "path" should be created. And inside section should exist a child called "child" with value "test"

[wet breach]

ok but your example is using two strings

not a string and an object

[sterile token]

what? Im confused sorry

the problem is that the section system does not work, because when you indicate a set a route within a section, it does not create the section or parent section nor the route within that section. Do I explain better now?

That is exactly the issue Frost

[brittle geyser]

Section is map i think

[sterile token]

Section in my case is an object called MemorySection similar to like yaml spigot works

[hushed spindle]

what was the link to spigots patch changes again

need to know what Particle.REDSTONE has been replaced with

[brittle geyser]

what u want to code?

[wet breach]

ok well you are obviously going to have to show your implementation and not just this little method of yours

[sterile token]

a section-based configuration system. It allows the creation of configuration values, configuration sections, and configuration settings. Like the spigot system does, but I do it because I need it to be platform independent (works no matter if I use Spigot or Bungeecord api).

[wet breach]

because here in this method you are using generics and you can't expect generics to magically work

[sterile token]

right, let me finish debugging smth and i send it via paste

[hushed spindle]

anyone know what Particle.REDSTONE was replaced with in 1.20.5

[chrome beacon]

?jd-s

[undone axle]

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

[hushed spindle]

is it just DUST now or what

[chrome beacon]

yes

[hushed spindle]

ah cool

[chrome beacon]

or DUST_COLOR_TRANSITION if you want it to be changing colors

[hushed spindle]

ooo fancy

[charred blaze]

then what is it

[sterile token]

okay this now is working, idk what happened. Just reloaded IDE and worked perfectly haha

[hushed spindle]

im confused what happened with the explosion particle type, there were previously 3 different sizes for explosion and now theres just EXPLOSION and EXPLOSION_EMITTER

what do you do to control the size of it

no datatype is documented for it

[brittle geyser]

Why .gitignore is not working

[valid burrow]

hard to tell without your gitignore

lmao

[chrome beacon]

Those files are probably already added to git

you need to git rm them

[brittle geyser]

# Gradle
.gradle/
/.gradle
**/gradle/
**/build/
!src/**/build/

[chrome beacon]

use --cached to just remove from git

[charred blaze]

hey the spawned item sometimes changes direction of rotation

[frail pilot]

Math stuff

[charred blaze]

if im studying math will i be learning this in university/college or in school?

[frail pilot]

Depends x)

Depends of your studies and your country I guess

[short drift]

Is it possible to define custom translation strings in the language files? Eg.
"custom.potatoes.in.farmland": "Potatoes growing in farmland. "

I tried

var inspectionText = new TextComponent(new TranslatableComponent(translationString));

But it didn't work.

[frail pilot]

Maybe with a ressource pack

[short drift]

Well, yes. I tried it with a resource pack.

[charred blaze]

do u have any idea why its sometimes rotating back

i mean it changes rotation direction

and in a few moments it changes back

[frail pilot]

Elgar used 181 degrees to make it rotate

Might be because of that

[blazing ocean]

only create a translatable

don't explicitly create a text component

[sour mountain]

I'm making a plugin that uses money so players can hold money and send money and stuff, what would be the best way to store how much money each player has? I was just going to use a variable but all the variables in the plugin reset when I reload the plugin and I need it to remember how much money everyone has

[charred blaze]

do i need to increase that ?

or?

[frail pilot]

I fairly don't know

The whole thing is a bit messy

[short drift]

All right .. but I'm still getting only the translation string thrown back at me.

[blazing ocean]

what lang file did you add it in

[blazing ocean]

are you sure you're sending it correctly?

[frail pilot]

Afaik, it's a linear interpolation between the previous matrix and the new one

Try 179 degrees maybe

Might fix it

[short drift]

en_au.json, en_ca.json, en_gb.json, en_us.json and fi_fi.json.

Mind you it's a completely custom string and not part of Minecraft.

[blazing ocean]

i think only adding it to en_us is enough

how are you sending it?

[short drift]

Sorry, sending where?

[blazing ocean]

to the player

[short drift]

player.spigot().sendMessage(inspectionText);

[tardy delta]

thats the 1.16 one if it could be of any use https://gist.github.com/LoneDev6/1df03fd853b2b244a7348216c8fa909d

[blazing ocean]

that looks fine

[blazing ocean]

me when mcasset.cloud

[short drift]

Right. Are you sure I can add my own custom translation keys and texts in the translation files?

[tardy delta]

never heard of

[blazing ocean]

yea, that's what the negative space font I use does too

[charred blaze]

do you use any other method to rotate it?

[charred blaze]

ok

[blazing ocean]

just checked, it uses a custom namespace for the lang file

[short drift]

Ok, so doing:

var inspectionText = new TranslatableComponent("custom.potatoes.in.farmland");

Should work in theory?

[blazing ocean]

yes

the issue should be on your pack side

[short drift]

Oh. So I might need to move that into its own namespace?

[blazing ocean]

try it, just going through mypack atm

[short drift]

Do they need to be prefixed, eg. mynamespace:custom.potatoes.in.farmland?

[blazing ocean]

nope

[frail pilot]

Nop

[storm crystal]

I have a question about PDUs

if I want to ensure that they are applied

[charred blaze]

nope 179 is still doing same thing

[storm crystal]

Id have to pass ItemMeta meta to them, not ItemStack item and take meta from that stack, right?

[frail pilot]

I think the "cleanest" way to do it is:

• rotate is up to 179 degree
• reset the transformation by applying without interpolation the default one
• Repeat the process

[short drift]

Okay, I tried moving them to their own namespace. But that made no difference. How would it find it in the correct namespace without prefixing it with the namespace, though?

[charred blaze]

you mean like this?

[short drift]

I tried prefixing it, but that didn't work either.

[frail pilot]

Nope

[short drift]

All the default Minecraft translations work, though, with TranslatableComponent.

[blazing ocean]

that's odd, it works here: https://github.com/AmberWat/NegativeSpaceFont/blob/master/assets/space/lang/en_us.json. fabric has a good explanation, just to verify you've done everything correctly: https://fabricmc.net/wiki/tutorial:lang

[lilac dagger]

can you teleport block displays?

i'm considering using block displays instead of falling blocks for hide and seek

[sterile token]

Could someone link me about new things called translatable i wanna learn about them. Tahnks

[frail pilot]

Yes they are normal entities

[charred blaze]

so what do you mean by "reset the transformation by applying without interpolation the default one"

[frail pilot]

Each time in the runnable

You first apply the default transformation after setting the interpolation duration to zero

Then you call inside the runnable scheduler.runTask()

With the previous scheduler inside

To do it on the next tick

[kindred sentinel]

is there any way to get body's rotation?

[charred blaze]

do you mean interpolation delay?

[frail pilot]

No

Duration

[charred blaze]

but i need the duration to be set to some value

the rotation speed

[frail pilot]

To apply the default transformation instantly

Yeah

Wait I'm playing valorant I anwser you after the game x)

[charred blaze]

oh ok

code currently looks like this

[quaint mantle]

hi guys is there any bug with spigot plugin in 1.20,5?

[chrome beacon]

Stay in #help-server

(and ask a question that makes more sense)

[valid burrow]

is there an event for when a villager cancels the breeding process or villager breeding in general

[frail pilot]

Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimer(plugin, () -> {
  entity.setInterpolationDuration(0);
  entity.setTransformation(defaultTransformation);
  Bukkit.runTask(plugin, () -> {
    /* insert the content of the previous runnable */
  });
}, speed);

Something like that

[charred blaze]

like this?

[frail pilot]

Yes

[charred blaze]

ok lemme analyze this code a sec

[sterile token]

not realted but why for rotations you use radians? is it for something special

[charred blaze]

can we reset the transformation once current rotation ends instead?

[frail pilot]

hmmmm

[charred blaze]

idk, i have trouble understanding Quaternionf s (language barrier ) and someone wrote sample code and im trying to read it

[frail pilot]

It will just be harder with the code

[charred blaze]

mhm ok

ok ill test this one

[restive mango]

How do you check if an EntityType would implement the Mob interface?

Without actually creating an instance of an entity of that entity type

[charred blaze]

another question. is this the part that does the actual rotation quaternion.rotateY((float) Math.toRadians(179))); or is this the one? new Quaternionf(0,0,0,1);

[frail pilot]

The first one

[chrome beacon]

getEntityClass()

[frail pilot]

The second is useless it's overwritten

[charred blaze]

so i was just wasting time trying to understand Quaternions?

xd

[frail pilot]

x)

[chrome beacon]

They're still useful to understand

:)

[valid burrow]

i didnt find anything so any other idea how i could retrieve data on why a villager breeding session or what ever one would call it coudl fail?

[restive mango]

Thanks man

[nova quail]

how to get string from messages.yml file?

[chrome beacon]

?configs

[undone axle]

See this wiki page on how to use custom configuration files: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/config-files/

[charred blaze]

"trying to understand"

i didnt say i understood it xd

[nova quail]

thanks

[charred blaze]

(i couldnt)

[charred blaze]

this one is repeating the issue more times

[tardy delta]

honestly they shouldve put a link to the bukkit page about config there

[frail pilot]

Then I will investigate this tomorrow, now I'm playing x)

[charred blaze]

ok i can wait

[restive mango]

wait uh

you're going to find this dumb, but how do I work with that?

like

im just confused how to figure out of 'java.lang.Class<capture<? extends org.bukkit.entity.Entity>' is of the Mob class

do i try to cast it?

[ivory sleet]

Mob.class.isAssignableFrom(otherClass) iirc.

[restive mango]

oh thanks

[ivory sleet]

could be the other way around, i never remember the order

[restive mango]

ill find out soon enuff

!

[ivory sleet]

!!!

[tardy delta]

should be called isAssignableWith

[sturdy heron]

radians are the standard unit when working with rotations

[sterile token]

ohh okay, but is startand unit in europe? or all world

[sturdy heron]

everywhere

[alpine urchin]

have you not heard of radians?

[sterile token]

nop, we always have used grades / grados

[eternal oxide]

its possible the repeatable task overlaps the translation by 1 tick, which is why I had to use 181

I'll check

[alpine urchin]

i see, radians are easier to work with mathematically because it is related to the radius of the circle.

[sterile token]

oh okay, that makes more sense now. Thanks retrooper

[alpine urchin]

No problem, in radians 2pi is one rotation (360 degrees)

[eternal oxide]

Nope no overlap

[sterile token]

Whats the difference between isSet and contains? Specific when working with spigot yaml api - Thanks

[tardy delta]

read the javadocs, contains will return true as fallback for default values

[sterile token]

I cant 💀

im banned from spigot again

it seems that spigot anti proxy are working better now

either that or my proxy is working for the trash

[ivory sleet]

To expand on what retrooper said, if you have a circle with radius of 1, the perimeter is 2*pi*r = 2*pi (r=1), which is sort of the first reasonable argument for why we use radians

[brittle geyser]

What is it???

private static final CachedValue<BetterGUI> INSTANCE_CACHE = CachedValue.of(() -> (BetterGUI)JavaPlugin.getPlugin(BetterGUI.class));
public static BetterGUI getInstance() {
    return (BetterGUI)INSTANCE_CACHE.get();
  }

[ivory sleet]

a circle with a radius of 1 is interesting because it holds a lot of mathematical properties, relations and discoveries

[ivory sleet]

looks like a lazy singleton

But rather useless

They probably wanted to erase the generic type, thus having some sort of dynamic/lazy resource loader

[sterile token]

thankks!!

[eternal oxide]

I solved the reversing. It was due to the minor inaccuracy of Math.toRadians. The slightest floating point error results in an incomplete translation

[sterile token]

right, so the reason is mathematical.Degrees lost properties from what i read

[charred blaze]

oh

[ivory sleet]

well degrees is not as mathematically convenient

[charred blaze]

so i should increase it?

[eternal oxide]

just quat.rotateY((float) Math.round(Math.toRadians(180))))); // right rotation will fix it

[charred blaze]

ok ill test it

[sterile token]

right really thanks Conclure

[eternal oxide]

yep works. If you want it to rotate the other way use -180

annoying FP errors

[charred blaze]

yea it works

thank you

will test other axis now

[eternal oxide]

-180 = clockwise rotation

[charred blaze]

ok

is there direct method to make this display fly up and down like the dropped item does?

[eternal oxide]

you could add a sin of its rotation

to its height

or position

not sure how though

[charred blaze]

i could do it with some runnable?

[eternal oxide]

not really

[frail pilot]

Just add a translation to the transformation

[eternal oxide]

as its dependant upon the translation

[charred blaze]

can i just teleport the display up and down

something like that

with delay

[eternal oxide]

no

god no

[charred blaze]

why

[eternal oxide]

while it might work, it would be defeating the whole purpose of translations/transformations

let me have a think

[charred blaze]

well i didn't know you could make objects move with that other than rotating them

[frail pilot]

Just add a translation

And multiply by -1 each iteration

[charred blaze]

whats translation

[frail pilot]

In the transformation

newTransformation.getTranslation().set(0, 1, 0);

[charred blaze]

i mean

what is this

what can i do with it

[eternal oxide]

its the vector passed in the constructor

[frail pilot]

Translation is just ... a translation

You set it

It will go from the original point

[charred blaze]

it sounds like a language translation to me

[frail pilot]

To the point + specified vector

Oh

Let me grab the wikipedia page x)

[charred blaze]

makes sense

and 0, 1, 0 would do one block above the original location right?

how would that create hovering effect?

[frail pilot]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_(geometry)

Yep

[charred blaze]

aaaaa

i learned this in school

but in other language

xd

mb

[frail pilot]

x)

[charred blaze]

wow now it makes sense

[frail pilot]

First you set translation to (0, 0.5, 0)

It travels up

Then the next iteration of the runnable

You set translation to (0, 0, 0)

It will travel down

Boom

Hovering effect

[charred blaze]

?

wouldnt it just teleport 0.5 up and then -0.5 ?

oh i have duration

[frail pilot]

Nop

yep

x)

[charred blaze]

ok will try thanks

like this?

is there a better way to do this?

[frail pilot]

Hmmm

Something like that

[glad prawn]

eh why boolean array

[frail pilot]

You should move up in the lambda

To avoid using an array

But for testing it's fine

[charred blaze]

in the first lambda?

it still gives error

[glad prawn]

is it used in outer lambda?

[charred blaze]

no

[glad prawn]

then u got the answer

[charred blaze]

he said avoiding using an array

you still need an array inside the lambda

[eternal oxide]

I got it floating, but it's not really fast enough

as it takes half a rotation to reach it's apex

[charred blaze]

what if someone needs different speeds for floating/rotating?

[frail pilot]

new Runnable () {
private boolean up;
void run() {
  /* content of the lambda */
}
}

[frail pilot]

You can adjust it by doing a ratio between the rotation and the translation

And add to the angle

[charred blaze]

adjust the speed?

[frail pilot]

Yeah

Basically the rotation will always be the same

You have an angle

[charred blaze]

"ratio between the rotation and the translation"

how

[frail pilot]

Yeah it's confusing

Give me 5 min, I'm coding that

[charred blaze]

so if rotation speed is 5s

and user input for floating speed is x s

mhmmmmmmm

[eternal oxide]

looks like MC reaches its apex in 45 degrees

[charred blaze]

MC?

[eternal oxide]

Minecraft bounce on dropped objects

[charred blaze]

45 degree of what

[eternal oxide]

rotation

[charred blaze]

some sin cos?

this float thing looks like this

[storm crystal]

How can I refactor this code to work properly with setting up PersistentDataType?

[eternal oxide]

not quite 2pi is a full rotation. The minecraft bounce is double the speed of this graph

[charred blaze]

so what does it use

[glad prawn]

generic

[charred blaze]

what height does minecraft use?

[sullen marlin]

You're always returning a string. Why is data type a string

[glad prawn]

He took an pdc type by its name, I don't understand why he did that.

[storm crystal]

I dont understand how to do it at all

throwing one word answer isnt really helping

[brittle geyser]

I need expression that will split my string correctly.
My string: {123:5123, LoL:[aboba, test, jmot], kapa:[opa, shopa, koka], lel:[test, boba, iba]}
Result would be: 123:5123 LoL:[aboba, test, jmot] kapa:[opa, shopa, koka] lel:[test, boba, iba]

[glad prawn]

Are you so lazy that you can't directly use the type you need?

[sullen marlin]

Can you explain more what that string is please. Why does it need to be in that format

[brittle geyser]

My expression that not works rn "(?<=^|,)\s*(?:\{([^:]+):([^,\]]+)}|([^:]+):\[([^]]+)])"
Result: 123:5123, ,

[glad prawn]

Ah he doesn't know how to use generics.

[brittle geyser]

because {} is map, and in map i need to store arrays, array is []

[sullen marlin]

Map and array from where

Where did this string come from

[brittle geyser]

from string in chat, player will text it

[sullen marlin]

Use yaml or json

Your string looks close enough to valid yaml

[brittle geyser]

i know, but i convert string into boolean, int and other data types

How i can convert string into map with yaml

[sullen marlin]

Use SnakeYaml or gson. This needs a parser not a regex

[brittle geyser]

private Object convert(String message) {
        if (message.equals("null")) {
            return null;
        }
        if (message.startsWith("{") && message.endsWith("}")) {
            Map<String, Object> objectMap = new HashMap<>();
            String[] split = message.substring(1, message.length() - 1)
                                    .split("(?<=^|,)\\s*(?:\\{([^:]+):([^,\\]]+)}|([^:]+):\\[([^]]+)])");
            plugin.getLOGGER().info("Splited: " + Arrays.toString(split));
            for (String messages : split) {
                String[] splitted = messages.split(":");
                objectMap.put(splitted[0], convert(splitted[1]));
            }
            return objectMap;
        }
        if (message.startsWith("[") && message.endsWith("]")) {
            ArrayList<Object> objects = new ArrayList<>();
            for (String messages : message.substring(1, message.length() - 1).split(", ")) {
                objects.add(convert(messages));
            }
            return objects;
        }
        if ((message.startsWith("\"") && message.endsWith("\"")) || (message.startsWith("'") && message.endsWith("'"))) {
            return message.substring(1, message.length() - 1);
        }
        if (NumberUtils.isNumber(message)) {
            return NumberUtils.createNumber(message);
        }
        if (message.equalsIgnoreCase("true")) {
            return true;
        }
        if (message.equalsIgnoreCase("false")) {
            return false;
        }
        return message;
    }

[storm crystal]

I have no idea how to specify data type of persistent data type

I cant figure out what T and Z stand for

[remote swallow]

t and z are generics

[glad prawn]

<T, Z> PersistentDataType<T, Z>

[frail pilot]

final ItemDisplay display = player.getWorld().spawn(player.getLocation(), ItemDisplay.class);
display.setItemStack(new ItemStack(Material.CHEST));

final Vector3f floating = new Vector3f(0f, 0.4f, 0f);
final Transformation transformation = display.getTransformation();
final int numberOfTicksForHalfHover = 5;
final float angleForHalfHover = 1.5f;

Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimer(this, new Runnable() {

        display.setInterpolationDuration(numberOfTicksForHalfHover);

        transformation.getLeftRotation().rotateY(angleForHalfHover);
        display.setTransformation(transformation);
    }
}, 2L, numberOfTicksForHalfHover);

[eternal oxide]

MC applies a sin to the translation

to smooth the transition between up and down

[frail pilot]

Oo

Well

Transformation are using linear interpolation

[eternal oxide]

I've been playing with it but its not so easy

[frail pilot]

Too bad

[twilit creek]

Hey, is it possible to use custom fonts in inventory names? Like with the AdventureAPI? (Component.text(<text>).font(Key.key(<key>));)

[frail pilot]

If you want to control the mvt that much, teleport the entity, it will be way easier x)

Or use the transform every tick

Does not matter

[eternal oxide]

nah I'm only playing around as the issue interested me

transform every 45 degrees is what MC does

[frail pilot]

Yeah but the interpolation is not the same

I guess

[eternal oxide]

but theres no way to apply a sin wave to the transformation

[frail pilot]

Yeah

[storm crystal]

I fixed problems with generic method syntax but I still have no idea how to retrieve specific enum from PersistentDataType, I read up documentation on it and still have no clue what to do

[glad prawn]

bro

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/persistence/PersistentDataContainer.html#get(org.bukkit.NamespacedKey,org.bukkit.persistence.PersistentDataType)
look at the signature of the get method

[sullen marlin]

this helper method should've even be necessary because your keys should be constants

[eternal oxide]

yeah with no sin wave teh bounce looks bad

[frail pilot]

:x

[eternal oxide]

teleport is the only option for a smooth bounce

[frail pilot]

You can apply the transformation every tick with no delay

It avoid teleporting it

As you need to apply the rotation anyway

[eternal oxide]

you could but that would be more load

[frail pilot]

Hmmm

Sure ?

[eternal oxide]

could become really bad with many entities

[frail pilot]

I mean, if you teleport it or transform it every tick it does not matter

[storm crystal]

I see how it looks like in the documentation, but I still don't understand how to properly set up that type

[sullen marlin]

just copy the method in the documentation

<P, C> C getPDC .... PersistentDataType<P,C> type

but as I said, this method doesn't need to exist because your keys should be constants

[storm crystal]

like enums or what

[sullen marlin]

you just put your key name in a field as a Namespacedkey and this method is one line...

I think you need to learn more java

[storm crystal]

like that?

[sullen marlin]

what did I say about P and C

[storm crystal]

I don't understand what .... stand for

[sullen marlin]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/persistence/PersistentDataContainer.html#get(org.bukkit.NamespacedKey,org.bukkit.persistence.PersistentDataType)

[sterile token]

I really recommend learning about generics because i dont think you are understand correctly

[sullen marlin]

Type Parameters:
P - the generic type of the stored primitive
C - the generic type of the eventually created complex object

[storm crystal]

P and C are types stored and outputted and I want to store and retrieve same type T that I specify

[remote swallow]

P and C are nothing specific, they are just a placeholder

[storm crystal]

do I create two enums for keys and types now

[echo basalt]

damn he got learnjava'd by md

[sullen marlin]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/persistent-data-container-the-better-alternative-to-nbt-tags/

folow a tutorial // learn java

you keep saying the word enum without knowing what it means

[echo basalt]

public static final Map<String, PersistentDataType<?, ?>> PDC_MAPPINGS = Map.of(
  "Integer", PersistentDataType.INTEGER,
  "String", PersistentDataType.STRING
);

public static final PersistentDataType<String, Object> JSON_CONVERTER = ...; // Make your own impl

:)

gson encode that bitch

[storm crystal]

is this possible to make switch statement based on parameter T?

like it's type?

[echo basalt]

Sounds like you need to learn java

[sterile token]

i dont think, he is coding great. Dont be like that 🫴

[echo basalt]

why does that hand emoji look like it's gonna do something suggestive

[storm crystal]

I tried reading into Spigot's api, Oracle documentation into generic and looking at examples of generic methods, but I dont understand whats the deal with PersistentDataType

[young knoll]

Isn’t switching on the type gonna be a thing

Forgot the fancy JEP name for it

[eternal night]

pattern matching?

[sullen marlin]

it's a variable that contains the primitive type (what is stored on the NBT) and the complex type (what is used in java). For something like PersistentDataType.STRING these are the same

[young knoll]

Probably, idk they call everything pattern matching

[glass mauve]

JEP 394: Pattern Matching for instanceof + JEP 441: Pattern Matching for switch

[storm crystal]

I get that part, that if my type T were String I would end up with PresistentDataType<String, String> and could thus retrieve only STRING from that, but I dont know how to make it generalized into getting desired constant that's sitting in here

[sullen marlin]

<P, C> C getPDC .... PersistentDataType<P,C> type

[storm crystal]

well <T, T> would not always work

but it works for data types I am interested in

[storm crystal]

could you explain what .... is supposed to mean in that case?

[sullen marlin]

it is the method signature you need, fill in the dots with your other stuff

copied straight from https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/persistence/PersistentDataContainer.html#get(org.bukkit.NamespacedKey,org.bukkit.persistence.PersistentDataType)

it declares a method with two type variables P,C; returns C; and has an argument of PersistentDataType<P,C>

ask chatgpt or something

you need to learn more java

[storm crystal]

wouldnt I need key and metadata too in arguments?

[glass mauve]

we told him already multiple times, always ignored

[sullen marlin]

it is the method signature you need, fill in the dots with your other stuff

why am I just repeating myself

[glad prawn]

😭

[storm crystal]

I didnt totally get what other stuff is supposed to mean

or how to copy method signature from this section

[glad prawn]

for real bro

[sullen marlin]

this is how you copy things (ctrl+c, ctrl+v)

[glass mauve]

genius

[glad prawn]

lol

[storm crystal]

Its not 1:1 copy from what you sent, I thought that by "copied straight from" you meant that what you processed is explicitly written somewhere and I got confused

I dont understand the part about my keys being constants, how should I declare them?

[sullen marlin]

static final NamespacedKey MY_PDC_KEY = ...

[quiet ice]

I'd say it is irrelevant - unless you wish to call the method, then it is something else. Should be reading this convo a bit better I guess

[storm crystal]

I was calling keys from string names because I found it more convenient for me

but as far as I am concerned I should avoid using strings as much as possible

[sullen marlin]

peppering random strings in your code is not a good design

https://wiki.c2.com/?StringlyTyped

[storm crystal]

so calling keys with fromString method isnt advised in general?

[remote swallow]

calling keys fromString is fine, just randomly putting that in your code isnt

eg having 1 NamespacedKey.fromString in a constants class is fine, but calling it 900 times all over the place isnt

[storm crystal]

yeah thats what im thinking about

but should I hardcode an array of keynames and then loop over it to initialize them or would it there be a much better way to create constants?

[young knoll]

Use the constructor that takes two strings

[glass mauve]

im kinda out of context, but enums?

[young knoll]

Or use a static reference to your plugin I guess

[storm crystal]

why two strings in specific?

[eternal oxide]

Whats my mistake? I tried simplifying and it now rotates really fast, accellerating and slowing down. I see a pattern to the acceleration.```java
ItemDisplay entity = player.getWorld().spawn(player.getEyeLocation().add(player.getEyeLocation().getDirection().multiply(3)), ItemDisplay.class);
entity.setItemStack(new ItemStack(Material.ACACIA_BOAT));
entity.setInterpolationDelay(0);
entity.setInterpolationDuration(1);

    Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimer(plugin, new Runnable() {

        int angle = 0;

        @Override
        public void run() {

            float rotation = (float) Math.round(Math.toRadians(angle));

            Transformation transform = entity.getTransformation();
            transform.getRightRotation().rotateY(rotation);
            entity.setTransformation(transform);

            angle += 1;
            if (angle > 360) angle = 0;
            if (angle < 0) angle = 360;
        }

    }, 2, 1);```

[storm crystal]

that could work

[young knoll]

You keep rotating it by angle, but angle keeps increasing

[eternal oxide]

yes

[young knoll]

So you rotate it 1 degree, then 2, then 3, etc

[eternal oxide]

ah I see

thanks

I only need the incrementing angle for the sin

I thought it was absolute rotation not relative

seems that wasn;t it. it no longer rotates at all

[storm crystal]

okay, so I want to utilize enums to store my statistics anyways, so I was thinking about implementing them into key names, so that I could iterate over enums and create keys on server enable, should I make Data Access Object class for them and store in something such as list?

[eternal oxide]

it is absolute rotation

its a rotate to specified radian

[young knoll]

It shouldn’t be

Afaik

[eternal oxide]

if I rotate to 1, it will point in one specific direction. if I rotate 180 it points the opposite

[young knoll]

Huh

The javadocs suggest it should mutate the current values

[remote swallow]

who keeps crashing my discord

[eternal oxide]

me!

[remote swallow]

smh

[storm crystal]

okay, does this make a proper use of generic methods?

if so then I only have to figure out way to create keys

[eternal oxide]

ah I see. I was originally resetting the quaternions each pass, but changed to fetching them and modifying

however, that shoudl have worked passing in a toRadians of 1

creating a new Transformation object every time works, but using teh current one seems to mess me up

[storm crystal]

do I make something like that and then iterate over it in a method to create keys?

[glad prawn]

create a class, dont use enum

[storm crystal]

like a class that holds Map<String, NamespacedKey> data structure?

[glad prawn]

.

[storm crystal]

no wait I could use NamespacedKey[] Keys and just use enums with bitwise OR to find them

[storm crystal]

the issue with this is poor scalability

what if I wanted to have, let's say, 70 keys

[sullen marlin]

we're really not getting anywhere here

[young knoll]

An enum would be the same

70 fields vs 70 enum constants

[storm crystal]

no

enums would be used to determine what index of array it is

[glad prawn]

i won't use the getKey() method xd

[storm crystal]

lets say I'd have a 6 bit number, 3 higher bits would be used to determine Elemental damage types, 3 low bits would be used to determine stat flavor, I'd have space for 8 of each since thats how many different numbers I can store in 3 bit numbers, using OR bitwise operator would allow me to store those keys in very nicely put spots, I'd only have to set up enum values corresponding to those binary numbers in decimal format

in that case it'd be 16 constants in enum at worst

which I'd be using not only for indexing stored keys but also statistics, so it wouldnt go to waste

[young knoll]

That’s quite over engineered for something like this

Storing a few extra bytes isn’t going to matter

[storm crystal]

I mean

I'd use that type of indexing all over my plugin for retrieving enemy statistics, weapon statistics, player base statistics, changing or applying PDCs

and I could make a general way to index it properly

for keys I'd just have to get that enum and lowercase it with method

[young knoll]

I’d just make a custom type adapter that can read and write all the data you need for an item as one object

[storm crystal]

to each their own I guess

I could just do something like keys[FIRE | DAMAGE_RESISTANCE] or enemyStats[ICE | RESISTANCE_REDUCTION] utilizing the same structure, so I think it'd be neat

[torn shuttle]

damn it I got another 1-star review from a false positive virus on spigot

[quaint mantle]

I really wish mojang added some kind of cubic bezier curve for animating those things 😔

[eternal oxide]

yeah really annoying

[torn shuttle]

does it loop

I think I might know what you did wrong there

[eternal oxide]

it does all kinds of wierd things, speeding up, slowing down

[torn shuttle]

yeah it's up to how you're resetting, also are you reading its current rotation?

[eternal oxide]

It works perfectly if I create a new Transformation each time

[torn shuttle]

yeah you are

and due to the interpolation you are probably getting the drag effect that I had trouble with working on fmm

possibly

[eternal oxide]

if I get teh current Quaternion it goes bad

I was just hoping to simplify by using teh current values

[torn shuttle]

wait what

rotate Y rotates by an amount

it doesn't set the rotation

you're doing it wrong

you probably don't even need a reset in the first place

[eternal oxide]

yes but if you get right quat and rotateY by toRadians(1) it doesn;t rotate at all

[torn shuttle]

did you round the 1

because you might've rounded it to 0

[eternal oxide]

after, yes

ah true

[torn shuttle]

and by might I mean you definitely did

[eternal oxide]

I rounded because before toRadians was too inaccurate to rotate teh same direction reliably

[torn shuttle]

I don't even know what that means nor do I really want to spend time thinking about it

[eternal oxide]

if you use toRadians(180) you can easily get a rounding error, as such when you do the next translation it would go clockwise not anti

[torn shuttle]

then use math.pi

2pi is 360

[eternal oxide]

nope Math.PI suffers the same issue

reversing

but rounding does fix it using toRadians

[torn shuttle]

what do you mean by reversing

[eternal oxide]

spins left then right, random direction due to fp math

this value works final float direction = (float) Math.round(Math.toRadians(-180));

without the round it behaves teh same as Math.PI, random rotation direction

[torn shuttle]

post the full math of what you're doing with this value

[eternal oxide]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[eternal oxide]

this works https://paste.md-5.net/votozafana.java

a continuously rotating ItemDisplay

replace direction with Math.PI and the rotation randomly reverses

I was attempting to use the existing quat values on teh object to rotate every tick so I could add a Math.sin bounce to it

via the Translation vector

however getLeftQuaternion().rotateY(Math.toRadians(1)) does not rotate at all

[young knoll]

Joml has its own math class

With its own toRadians

[eternal oxide]

I'll give it a try later.

[eternal oxide]

it works using teh joml Math class

[pearl forge]

https://paste.md-5.net/wixuxewire.java why for example, when I hit a zombie, doesnt it eject it from the boat?

[humble tulip]

@pearl forge what's your command registered as?

[pearl forge]

like, in main.java?

sorry im stupid

[eternal oxide]

Thats wierd, Minecrafts spinning item animation is noy syncronized to ticks

[worthy yarrow]

Hey elgarl are you in the review mega thread?

[eternal oxide]

nope

to be honest I've never looked at it

[worthy yarrow]

and BukkitScheduler::runTaskTimer(lambda) instead of new BukkitRunnable::runTaskTimer

Do you by chance have an example of this way I could have a look at?

[obsidian wolf]

Does anyone know how to add cooldowns for custom items like chorus fruits or swords where you right click them and it gives effects?

I can show you what I mean, I’ve tried many tutorials, and looked all through forums, anyone know?

[eternal oxide]

Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimer(plugin, () -> {
//do code here.
}, delay, repeatSpeed);```

[worthy yarrow]

That's it

sigh

Thank you haha

[obsidian wolf]

oh

nvm

[worthy yarrow]

Lambdas always give me the jitters

[young knoll]

?cooldowns

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/feature-command-cooldowns/

[obsidian wolf]

Is there a better way to explain it, because I’ve tried a lot of things and even tried this already it rlly doesn’t work

my sword is when i right click it gives me speed3, but if I hold right click I just keep speed 3 forever

[eternal oxide]

It seems the Minecraft rotation animation on dropped items is very close to 2.9 degrees per tick. It's not quite 3

[young knoll]

The wiki page is pretty in depth

Explaining how timestamps work

[obsidian wolf]

But what if it doesn’t work though

alright ima try it and update you

I think I did the same thing but on another website idk

give me a couple minutes

[mystic pike]

How would I go about making a new entry to Itemstack.r (PatchedDataComponentMap object) in 1.20.5 whereas previously using NBTTagCompound for versions 1.20.3 and below.
Would I have to create a new implementation of DataComponentType<T> and if I do, how would I do that?

[worthy yarrow]

So this:

Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimer(seasons, () -> {
            for (Player player : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()){
                temperatureCache.computeIfAbsent(player.getUniqueId(), uuid -> {
                   double defaultTemp = temperatureSystem.getDefaultTemperature(seasonsManager.getCurrentSeason());
                   emitTemperatureChange(player, defaultTemp, defaultTemp);
                   return defaultTemp;
                });
                double currentTemp = temperatureSystem.calculatePlayerTemperature(player.getWorld().getBiome(player.getLocation()), seasonsManager.getCurrentSeason(), player);
                temperatureCache.put(player.getUniqueId(), currentTemp);
            }
        }, 0, 100);

as opposed to this:

        temperatureCacheTask = new BukkitRunnable() {
            @Override
            public void run(){
                for (Player player : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()){
                    temperatureCache.computeIfAbsent(player.getUniqueId(), uuid -> {
                        double defaultTemp = temperatureSystem.getDefaultTemperature(seasonsManager.getCurrentSeason());
                        emitTemperatureChange(player, defaultTemp, defaultTemp);
                        return defaultTemp;
                    });

                    double currentTemp = temperatureSystem.calculatePlayerTemperature(player.getWorld().getBiome(player.getLocation()), seasonsManager.getCurrentSeason(), player);
                    temperatureCache.put(player.getUniqueId(), currentTemp);
                }
            }
        }.runTaskTimer(seasons, 5, 100);

To avoid overuse of anonymous methods?

[young knoll]

You may want a method reference with that much code

[worthy yarrow]

public void startTemperatureCacheTask(){

i didn't include it in those pastes

It starts onEnable

[sullen marlin]

both seem fine to me

potatoe potato

[worthy yarrow]

I like the first way, a bit less bloated

[glad prawn]

lambda 🤑

[eternal oxide]

@charred blaze @frail pilot Finally got the simplest I can do. 99.9% matches Minecrafts rotating item with bobbing. https://paste.md-5.net/uqobuwutok.java

[sullen marlin]

looks pretty simple

nice job

[eternal oxide]

Just have to remember to use import org.joml.Math;

[worthy yarrow]

put it in the paste and bookmark the tab

[eternal oxide]

edited, thanks.

[worthy yarrow]

Haha no worries

Thank you btw!

[worldly ingot]

If you're just wanting to add custom data to an ItemStack, you should make use of the PersistentDataContainer which will make use of the item's custom data component

If you make a new data component type, you're going to have to register it to a frozen registry, and then you have undefined behaviour with the client. You're probably just wanting custom data, so Bukkit has API for this. The PDC

[mystic pike]

I see. I was scrambling quite a bit and found an object called CustomData, does that have anything to do with this as CustomData.a(NBTTagCompound) would convert a NBTTagCompound to a CustomData.

[worldly ingot]

Why are you insistent on using internals for this?

[mystic pike]

Not really insistent.

Just wondering now.

[worldly ingot]

It's new. I haven't looked too much into how it's implemented but there is a data component that's just an arbitrary map of NBT data for item stacks

[mystic pike]

Also for the reason that the vars I get passed in looks like this

    public net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack applyTag(@NotNull net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack itemStack, NBTTagCompound tag) {
        // todo - fix this
        // itemStack.c(tag);
        return itemStack;
    }

[slender elbow]

itemstacks don't hold NBT anymore in memory, they have a component map, a component describing stuff like enchantments, lore, potion contents etc
mojang was aware people stored non-vanilla tags in item NBT, and so they moved all foreign tags to this "custom_data" component, it holds a tag where all non-vanilla data should go

you are not meant to implement data components or types yourself

[worthy yarrow]

private void emitTemperatureChange(Player player, double oldTemp, double tempTarget) {
        Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimer(seasons, () -> {
            double updatedTemp = oldTemp;
            double increment = (tempTarget > oldTemp) ? 1.0 : -1.0;
            temperatureEffects.displayTemperature(player, updatedTemp);
            updatedTemp += increment;

            if (increment > 0 && updatedTemp >= tempTarget || increment < 0 && updatedTemp <= tempTarget){
                temperatureEffects.displayTemperature(player, tempTarget);
            }
        }, 0, 10);
    }```

I'm thinking it's fine for this to run constantly, though when a new temperature would need to be emitted how do I cancel this task?

and/or assign a task id

[mystic pike]

I see.

[worldly ingot]

runTaskTimer() returns you a BukkitTask object which has a cancel() method

Store that somewhere, wherever you need to

Okay definitly this is not normal, like this i have around 5k lines with the same text:

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonMappingException: Document nesting depth (1001) exceeds the maximum allowed (1000, from `StreamWriteConstraints.getMaxNestingDepth()`) (through reference chain: dev.alex.net.library.config.utilities.ConfigData["section"]->dev.alex.net.library.config.section.MemorySection["parent"]->dev.alex.net.library.config.files.YamlHandler["values"]->java.util.LinkedHashMap["section"]->dev.alex.net.library.config.section.MemorySection["parent"]->dev.alex.net.library.config.files.YamlHandler["values"]->java.util.LinkedHashMap["section"]->dev.alex.net.library.config.section.MemorySection["parent"]->dev.alex.net.library.config.files.YamlHandler["values"]->java.util.LinkedHashMap["section"]->dev.alex.net.library.config.section.MemorySection["parent"]->dev.alex.net.library.config.files.YamlHandler["values"]->java.util.LinkedHashMap["section"]->dev.alex.net.library.config.section.MemorySection["parent"]->dev.alex.net.library.config.files.YamlHandler["values"]->java.util.LinkedHashMap["section"]->dev.alex.net.library.config.section

[echo basalt]

I wonder if config sections contain their parent

[sterile token]

okayy

look this

something is getting weird

😂

lmao something cause an infinite loop or somthing similar

okay @echo basalt from what i read is caused because of Circular References

[echo basalt]

Yeah that's where I was getting at

[sterile token]

oh right

could you explain more about it pelase

sorry for tagging also

[echo basalt]

No worries

In short let's say A points to B

And B points back to A

What happens if you try to encode either?

[sterile token]

right i now understand the concept

[echo basalt]

It says "A[value = B[value = A...]]"

[sterile token]

but why would be caused? there i will need to get an idea why getting caused

let me send you my codes

testing code - https://paste.md-5.net/mipugedoce.java
configs - https://paste.md-5.net/pehivaruve.java
section - https://paste.md-5.net/ejiripajev.java

there are all the code im using for what im coding

[echo basalt]

Yeah it's the parent thing

make it transient

[sterile token]

oh right

same issue tho

[echo basalt]

Hm

Any reason why you need a getParent?

[sterile token]

because of section

[echo basalt]

Yeah but why

[sterile token]

what do you mean by "why"

I mean would sections work without a getParent() ?

[echo basalt]

Yeah

[sterile token]

ohh lamoo, how would it be so?

[echo basalt]

Same shit

It's just a map wrapper

[sterile token]

but i use getParent() for creating the paths

[echo basalt]

Or you can just create the path in the parent and inject it in the constructor

[sterile token]

could you write a psecode simple, im a bit nightmare sorry man. I havent code in java for along

[echo basalt]

You really like to overcomplicate things

I have my own config system that looks a bit like spigot's / yours

[sterile token]

oh

getting nearer!!

[echo basalt]

public interface ConfigurationProvider {

  ConfigurationSection load(File file);
  void writeTo(ConfigurationSection section, File file);

Hello!

I wasn't able to find any information about this in any of the forums on SpigotMC.
So I turned to this discord chat.

Essentially I took over maintenance of a plugin, but as far as I and the previous owner/maintainer are aware, there isn't any way to give me access to the SpigotMC resource.
Is this correct? Is there any process where this can be done in any way?

Thanks!
(Wasn't able to verify because apparently bot is rate limited)

Hey that’s my IP!

[obsidian wolf]

I have 2 questions.

1. How do you add a cooldown for a chorus fruit? So you can’t eat it (while on cooldown)
2. Is it possible to add a custom texture to a sword using lore? Like instead of custom model data it’s lore? If anyone needs screenshots or any extra information, please; ask.

[echo basalt]

You might be able to get away with the second one with optifine, not sure

For the first one there's Player#setCooldown pretty sure

[obsidian wolf]

It’s a public server, wdym use optifine 😭

[echo basalt]

In which case just use model data ???

[obsidian wolf]

I’m tryna make it so everyone sees the texture pack ofc, I was just wondering if it was possible to use lore instead of custom model data

[echo basalt]

That's literally why it was made

[worthy yarrow]

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

How do we feel about this calculation?

[obsidian wolf]

is that the only way?

like no other way

[echo basalt]

Can be a little heavy if the search radius is huge

[worthy yarrow]

Yeah I'll make it known to keep it relatively low, also i think I'm cooked...

[echo basalt]

If it's bigger than like 32 I'd start making chunk snapshots and processing async

This is basically a light engine

[worthy yarrow]

private double calculateDistanceEffect(double distance) {
        double maxDistance = seasons.getConfig().getInt("season.util.heat_detection_radius");
        return Math.max(0, 1 - distance / maxDistance);

Why am I making a new double for max distance when I'm setting it to the same as distance

[obsidian wolf]

what’s that? is there a forum explaining it or sm?

[echo basalt]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/HumanEntity.html#setCooldown(org.bukkit.Material,int)

[worthy yarrow]

Wait disregard

[worthy yarrow]

I mean possibly later on but for now I'm just trying to get it smooth

• clean

I wonder how fast you would have this project completed illusion, I've been working on it for nearly 3 weeks lol

[echo basalt]

Well yeah this is basically a light engine so you can just hijack one and change stuff

[echo basalt]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

I worked on a bedrock modelengine thing for work yesterday

Took me about 2 hours

(geyser's API is dogshit)

[worthy yarrow]

geyser is relatively new aint it?

[echo basalt]

Been around for a couple years

[worthy yarrow]

I suppose it depends more on the dev or just actual dogshit?

[echo basalt]

Bedrock has a system to send animations on entities

It also allows you to register custom entity types on the resourcepack

there's no wrapper for anything

They use the animation packet about once in a huge switch statement for offhand swing

I had to do some packet magic :)

[worthy yarrow]

Oh boy I'm sure I'll come across packet magic later on when I try to do fake biomes for overcasts, fog, etc

[echo basalt]

Basically I made a system to wrap custom entities :)

[worthy yarrow]

Autumn colors for trees and what not as well

[echo basalt]

It's in kotlin because I was forced to :(

[worthy yarrow]

Damn kt

[echo basalt]

Basically the end goal is to make your own entity types, wrap entities and override animations

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[worthy yarrow]

Where do the animations come from?

[echo basalt]

They're also defined in the resourcepack

Imagine you're making a custom zombie

[worthy yarrow]

wait

[echo basalt]

You spawn a zombie, wrap it as a modeled entity and override the attack animation to scratch the player, for example

3 lines of code and that's about it

[worthy yarrow]

Could I use a resourcepack to do this and change the biomes sent during wtv season?

[echo basalt]

Nah this is a whole different game

You have to play with packets :)

[worthy yarrow]

D:

So sad

[echo basalt]

But yeah the new api at work looks a bit like this :)

public void modelZombie(Zombie zombie) {
  ModeledEntity modeled = modeledEntityTracker.getOrCreate(zombie, "custom_zombie");
  
  Animation animation = new Animation("animation.zombie.attack");
  modeled.getAnimationController().play(animation);

  modeled.getAnimationController().addProcessor((context) -> {
    context.setAnimation(animation);
  }, "animation.attack"); // Optional
}

I might make a premium plugin that ports modelengine bbmodels to bedrock not sure

[worthy yarrow]

That sounds really useful

[nova notch]

just curious, what could possibly be the reason for not using custom model data?

[worthy yarrow]

If only I ever messed with meg maybe I'd be building a premium plugin too lol

[obsidian wolf]

My friend wanted to use lore to give the item the ability, so if an item had a exact type of text and color for the lore the ability would work

but that seems like a bad idea anyway

[nova notch]

...so if it has that lore then give it the corresponding model data

[obsidian wolf]

he just wanted to practice his coding and honestly I was just wondering

[nova notch]

well as far as im aware that definitely is not possible at least without mods

[obsidian wolf]

yup that’s what we’re working on right now 👍

[worthy yarrow]

@echo basalt do you wanna look at the seasons project by chance?

[obsidian wolf]

you’d be surprised 😂

idk how tf he did it

anyway

I gtg sleep

[echo basalt]

eh no

[worthy yarrow]

ahaha I knew it

Worth a try

[nova notch]

i know you said youre leaving but i just reread this - ideally you shouldnt really rely on the lore for that sort of thing

[obsidian wolf]

yeah ik

defo won’t happen again ofc

but he just wanted to find out how lore works

[nova notch]

ok cool

[echo basalt]

@torn shuttle What can you tell me about bbmodel files?

[torn shuttle]

🤮

they will surprise you in ways that are !!fun!!

like how animation keys are not, in fact, stored linearly in time

[sullen marlin]

Everyone chill until exponential time

[torn shuttle]

nah they're just not ordered by time, they're ordered by date of creation in the program

which you would think is a bit of a weird way of storing data but whatever

[blazing ocean]

💀

[worthy yarrow]

I need a "cooldown" project of sorts, any ideas?

[charred blaze]

Will check it out thanks

[clear elm]

can some1 give me an command cooldown

[charred blaze]

float angle = 0; what angle is this?

[eternal oxide]

thats just a counter used to calculate the up/down sin wave

[charred blaze]

why is it called angle then?

angle of what

[eternal oxide]

I could probably have used teh ticksLived value of the entity for that, but the math woul dnot have been so clean

[charred blaze]

sin(angle)?

[eternal oxide]

when an item bounces up/down it doesn't instantly change from traveling down to up. it's a smooth transition. it follows a sin curve.

in Minecraft thats double the rotational angle.

[charred blaze]

ahh

so its some sort of proportion between rotation angle and hover?

[eternal oxide]

not really. it's just the angle doubled to produce a sin wave. you can see it in game when an item bounce slows at its apex

[grim parcel]

Hey guys, I have a problem, when I listen to the PluginMessageEvent(Bungee), I find that some information is output like
proxy.console.sendMessage(TextComponent(event.tag + " -> " + event.data))
minecraft:brand -> [B@4c8d14c2
if I register a custom channel, may hackers send custom messages to use it?
proxy.registerChannel("custom:channel")

[charred blaze]

                    angle %= 360;
                }```
so here you are just adding 2x of 2.87 till you get to 360 or more and then make angle division remainder of 360?

[eternal oxide]

yes

If you look at a sin wave...

thats the path the entity follows (up/down)

[charred blaze]

so 2.87 is just a 0.5x number of how many it increases each time in angle?

[eternal oxide]

but a straight sin is too slow. it bounces at double that speed

[charred blaze]

aham so you increase angle 2.87x2 on each task

[eternal oxide]

well 2.87 is a magic number. MC doesnt actually match its animations to sync with the server ticks

[charred blaze]

ok

[young knoll]

Yes, the client can send whatever they want through plugin messages

[clear elm]

how can i do an command cooldown

[acoustic pendant]

Hey, I have this code for creating a world

[grim parcel]

So bungee exposes a "BungeeCord" channel, why do I see almost no hackers trying to exploit that communication?

[charred blaze]

which part is stepSize here?

[eternal oxide]

its teh degrees rotated in 1 tick of the server (blue line)

[charred blaze]

also if we are not modifying stepSize why dont we keep Math.toRadians(stepSIze) outside of the runnable?

[eternal oxide]

you can

[lilac dagger]

probably the angle?

or the red radius

most likely the angle

[charred blaze]

so we convert angle stepSize in scale of radians. radian is approx. 57 so 2.87 will be 2.87 / 57 radians right?

and we do that because rotateY method requires radians instead of angle

[eternal oxide]

yes

[lilac dagger]

radians is just values of pi

[young knoll]

I believe that’s an outgoing channel

[charred blaze]

mhm ok

[lilac dagger]

not sure if it's 57, i think 4pi is the fourth quadrant?

[charred blaze]

(R / 2PiR) * 360

[eternal oxide]

2PI is a full circle, so 360 degrees

[lilac dagger]

https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/proxy/CAyLyMe3pp8c5etn5s6GVyx5kdlCFt7G2pIqKnJyKjvLUjJ-9C0-PECt7iPrSfaUVRlr3WFs6Jr4JhfFu4qb-8OIBhdsEEKIYghkDAqIYdQCAqxDwSw=w1200-h630-p-k-no-nu

[charred blaze]

aint it

[lilac dagger]

oh yeah

[grim parcel]

I wrote a fabricmod. When it tries to send clientPlayNetworking.send(Identifier("BungeeCord", ""), packetBuf), the client crashes because the name is capitalized.

What I'm confused about now is if I want to use a plugin channel, is it safe to use "BungeeCord", or is it equally safe to use a custom channel "custom:channel"

[charred blaze]

yea its 57

[eternal oxide]

just use teh math not magic (hard coded) numbers

[clear elm]

how can i do this sign on keyboard: '

[eternal oxide]

teh stepSize is purely to sync the animation speed to server ticks

[lilac dagger]

yeah, usually it's best to have the above an not 57

[charred blaze]

Math.cos(Math.toRadians(angle))/10 why

[lilac dagger]

the compiler will most likely simplify it

[charred blaze]

i thought we were using sin

[wet breach]

you don't have an apostrophe key?

[eternal oxide]

sin is for the up/down translation

[charred blaze]

oh its simmilar

[eternal oxide]

cos is just teh inverse of sin

[wet breach]

like yin and yang

[wet breach]

compiler will input the number directly if its able to when it compiles

otherwise yes, it will simplify some of it

the only thing to worry about is rounding

usually for such math you would ensure that doesn't happen by having some cut off point

[spice burrow]

has anyone else had issues with the buildtools gui infinitely loading? i tried using the jar but keep getting an error when trying to compile (https://pasteb.in/?bf0fbee2266df2e2#ALvgE5wmARm6xcyJAFw8tnPsNcX3ruV1Eu9sdxDSNk25)

[charred blaze]

this is supposed to be less laggy than rotating items with armorstands right?

[eternal oxide]

yes

[eternal oxide]

as it uses Transformations

[short drift]

What am I doing wrong?
custom.potatoes.in.farmland is my own custom entry.

[charred blaze]

Nice. and it should have 90% less errors probably

[short drift]

player.sendMessage(translationString + suffixGrowthMessage);

Yes, I think so.

No

[trail coral]

because every fork fixes it

[grim parcel]

What I'm confused about now is if I want to use a plugin channel, is it safe to use "BungeeCord", or is it equally safe to use a custom channel "custom:channel"

[trail coral]

bungee is safe

[grim parcel]

Even if this channel is registered through Bungee? proxy.registerChannel("custom:channel")

and Bukkit
server.messenger.registerOutgoingPluginChannel(this, "custom:channel") server.messenger.registerIncomingPluginChannel(this, "custom:channel", this)

[charred blaze]

Does itemdisplays have ClickEvent or something?

[eternal oxide]

no

no hit box

[charred blaze]

:(

so how do i do it? spawn an armorstand on same location?

[eternal oxide]

what exactly are you trying to do?

[charred blaze]

click commands on item displays

ItemDisplay is an entity

so PlayerInteractEntityEvent should work right?

[eternal oxide]

no

it needs a hitbox to interact

[charred blaze]

will test it a sec

yea it doessnt work

:(

so what should i spawn

armorstand?

[eternal oxide]

No idea. AS or a no AI slime as a passenger

[charred blaze]

oh

slime is actually a good idea

how many sizes do a slime have?

[eternal oxide]

no clue

I tried removing some of the directories in .m2/respository/org/spigotmc but unfortunately this did not help

[twilit creek]

Hello, is there a way to use something like Components with Font Options in inventories? Like i have a ASCII Char that is in a Texturepack a GUI and it is defined under fonts/inventories.json and i want to display the ASCII Char in the Font in a GUI.

[frail pilot]

Nice. But does it really need interpolation? (Afaik the interpolation is made on the game loop)

[sullen marlin]

you have JRE installed not JDK I reckon

[eternal oxide]

to maintain a smooth transformation, yes

[frail pilot]

Strange, when I looked at the display nms class, it looked like each step of the animation were calculated by the game loop on one tick.

[eternal oxide]

2.87 degrees was as close as I could get to match the animation speed

[cyan swift]

How do I start a project for the version 1.20.6?

[spice burrow]

I thought it might be since I have both JDK and JRE installed but even after uninstalling JRE it didn't fix it, just a silly oversight on the folder name causing me lots of pain

[13:13:49] [Server thread/INFO]: TranslatableComponent(format=%(?:(\d+)\$)?([A-Za-z%]|$), translate=custom.potatoes.in.farmland, with=[TextComponent{text=. , BaseComponent(style=net.md_5.bungee.api.chat.ComponentStyle@3d3af72, insertion=null, extra=null, clickEvent=null, hoverEvent=null, reset=false)}, TranslatableComponent(format=%(?:(\d+)\$)?([A-Za-z%]|$), translate=custom.ageable.almost_ripe, with=null, fallback=null), TextComponent{text=., BaseComponent(style=net.md_5.bungee.api.chat.ComponentStyle@3d3af72, insertion=null, extra=null, clickEvent=null, hoverEvent=null, reset=false)}], fallback=null)

So this is the TranslatableComponent when I print it out. Looks OK to me.

But when I do:

player.spigot().sendMessage(inspectionText);

I only get the first element out.

Do I need to do something extra... ?

[wet breach]

probably would help to show code?

[short drift]

            TranslatableComponent inspectionText = new TranslatableComponent("custom.potatoes.in.farmland");
            inspectionText.addWith(". ");

            // Check if it can be cast as Ageable.
            if (!(clickedBlock.getBlockData() instanceof Ageable ageable)) {
                System.out.println("Block data is not Ageable!");
                player.spigot().sendMessage(inspectionText);
                return;
            }

            // Check if it's fully grown.
            TranslatableComponent suffixGrowthMessage;
            var maxAge = ageable.getMaximumAge();
            var age = ageable.getAge();
            System.out.println("Block data is Ageable. Age: " + age + " Max age: " + maxAge);
            System.out.println(inspectionText);
            if (age == maxAge) {
                suffixGrowthMessage = new TranslatableComponent("custom.ageable.ripe");
            } else if (age == maxAge - 1) {
                suffixGrowthMessage = new TranslatableComponent("custom.ageable.almost_ripe");
            } else if (age == 0) {
                suffixGrowthMessage = new TranslatableComponent("custom.ageable.recently_planted");
            } else if (age == 1) {
                suffixGrowthMessage = new TranslatableComponent("custom.ageable.sprouting");
            } else {
                suffixGrowthMessage = new TranslatableComponent("custom.ageable.not_fully_mature");
            }
            System.out.println(suffixGrowthMessage);

            inspectionText.addWith(suffixGrowthMessage);
            inspectionText.addWith(".");

            System.out.println(inspectionText);
            player.spigot().sendMessage(inspectionText);

So, like I explained the ispectionText seems to contain all the elements that it should contain.

But when I do:

player.spigot().sendMessage(inspectionText);

It only prints the first element out.

So that would be the custom.potatoes.in.farmland

[quaint mantle]

May I ask how .sendTitle works? I noticed it had s and s1 will it display a message like this?
TEST
TEST
or do I need to add \n?

[shadow night]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#sendTitle(java.lang.String,java.lang.String,int,int,int)

[quaint mantle]

I'm guessing S is the title and S1 is the subtitle?

[shadow night]

Likely

If s is the first and s1 is the second then yes

[wet breach]

that is what you set it to o.O

[chrome beacon]

That javadoc does tell you

I recommend you read it

[wet breach]

I mean, it is the thing that is in translate, I don't imagine translatable would affect all the other settings?

[short drift]

Yes. That's the first element. But if you read the code a bit further you should see that I'm combining it with suffixGrowthMessage and the rest which is shown in the raw message I printed out. It's all there.

[wet breach]

if your goal is to send all of the string I imagine you would need to send it differently

[short drift]

How exactly?

[wet breach]

well, does it need to be a translatable component, not entirely sure what that is exactly and would have to look

[short drift]

Right so what I'm doing in practice is I take two translations from the resource pack.
I smash them together. And I add also some formatting like ". " etc.

[chrome beacon]

Are we sure that addWith mutates the component

[short drift]

And then I try to send the built message.

[wet breach]

Olivo beat me to it

[short drift]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/the-chat-component-api/
I'm reading this doc page.

It doesn't seem to explicitly say that I need to do anything extra.

[wet breach]

anyways, while it makes sense what you are doing, do you still need to send it as a translatable at the end?

[short drift]

I think the example it has is exactly what I have done.

[short drift]

How would I process it into another format?

Would that be TextComponent ?

[wet breach]

Yes

[short drift]

So using a StringBuilder or something?

And then

player.spigot().sendMessage(new TextComponent(messageBuilder.toString()));

?

[shadow night]

What are you even trying to achieve

[wet breach]

also it seems you misinterpreted the addWith

[short drift]

To send a message to player.

[shadow night]

I know, what exactly

[short drift]

Oh. Can you explain what I need to do?

[shadow night]

Why do you need a translatable component and stuff

[short drift]

Because the texts are in the resource pack as translations. English, Finnish, etc.

I mean this example seemed simple enough.
