Connection is an abstraction, in In the network, everything works by packet I think, it's netty that calls it a conexion . Our physical machine receives packets, it's netty that sees it as a conexion, gathers the packets and creates channels that are abstractions.
I'm not sure of everything I'm saying, but this is what seems correct to me.

I don't know whether it's netty or nms that creates the channels per client. If it's nms, that means there must be a global channel where all incoming packets pass through, so surely we can inject our handler?

[hazy parrot]

why not ?

[grim hound]

netty

netty is networking

nms uses netty

[quaint mantle]

How could I make signs execute commands?

[pseudo hazel]

I dont think they can by default

probably just player interact

[quaint mantle]

I see an event for signs when clicked PlayerSignCommandPreprocessEvent

[drowsy helm]

Thats a paper event

[sterile breach]

You can add command in sign nbt I think

[quaint mantle]

I'm in the wrong javadocs xd

[quaint mantle]

you were doing the ingame dialong yeah?

[drowsy helm]

Indeed

[grim hound]

add clickEvent

to the text

[pseudo hazel]

oh it seems like you can just have a click event on the sign lines?

[grim hound]

it works with commands

so it should work with bukkit

[grim hound]

on signs

[pseudo hazel]

yeah

[quaint mantle]

how it is done?

[pseudo hazel]

you should be able to put a "click_event":(" or whatever on the signs line

like each line of a sign is a text component

you should be able to add click events to that

[drowsy helm]

Just unicode textures and a bit of font magic. Im probs gonna open source it soon

[grim hound]

/setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:oak_sign{Text1:"{\"text\":\"siema\",\"color\":\"white\",\"bold\":\"true\",\"clickEvent\":{\"action\":\"run_command\",\"value\":\"/teleport @p -202 118 -8\"}}"} replace is how I did it like 3 years ago

Can someone explain to me why creating a ClientboundPlayerInfoUpdatePacket instance results in this error:
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "net.minecraft.server.network.PlayerConnection.k()" because "var0.c" is null

I wrote this plugin with Mojang Mappings (with Special Source) for the version 1.21

Here is my code:

package me.loadthecode.npcs.commands;

import com.mojang.authlib.GameProfile;
import net.minecraft.network.protocol.game.ClientboundAddEntityPacket;
import net.minecraft.network.protocol.game.ClientboundPlayerInfoUpdatePacket;

import net.minecraft.server.level.ServerLevel;
import net.minecraft.server.level.ServerPlayer;
import org.bukkit.command.Command;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandExecutor;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandSender;
import org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_21_R1.entity.CraftPlayer;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;

import java.util.Set;
import java.util.UUID;

public class CreateNPCCommand implements CommandExecutor {
  @Override
  public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command command, String label, String[] args) {

    if (sender instanceof Player p) {
      CraftPlayer cp = (CraftPlayer) p;
      ServerPlayer sp = cp.getHandle();

      MinecraftServer minecraftServer = sp.getServer();
      ServerLevel serverLevel = sp.serverLevel();

      ServerPlayer npc = new ServerPlayer(minecraftServer, serverLevel, new GameProfile(UUID.randomUUID(), "Bob"), ClientInformation.createDefault());

      sp.connection.sendPacket(new ClientboundPlayerInfoUpdatePacket(ClientboundPlayerInfoUpdatePacket.Action.ADD_PLAYER, npc));
      sp.connection.sendPacket(new ClientboundAddEntityPacket(npc, new ServerEntity(serverLevel, npc, 0, false, packet -> {}, Set.of())));

    }

    return true;
  }
}

[chrome beacon]

You need to make a fake connection for the npc

The server is trying to send packets to it

And you need to void them

[sterile breach]

serverConnection is global server connection? You can get channels from it?

[last pulsar]

How?

[chrome beacon]

Just use Citizens there's no need to reinvent the wheel

[last pulsar]

Ok

[wet breach]

but sometimes the wheel needs to be a square

[shadow night]

I like my wheels triangle tho

[grim hound]

server connection is the pipeline of channel handlers (the server's Channel handlers) that determines which channel handlers (the player's) initially should a player's channel be assigned

so for example the handshake handler

timeout handler

ping handler

etc

the server's handler assigns the user's Channel some channel handler that are unique to that very player

but the server's channel handlers are shared and they determine what handlers each player should have

[sterile breach]

Can we make an handler injection from server connection?

[grim hound]

yes

you get the pipeline with Channel#pipeline

and place your handler

I placed mine first

cuz it's a wannabe firewall

[blazing ocean]

mhm

[grim hound]

ah forgot about that one xD

why?

[umbral ridge]

what line of code causes this? [org.bukkit.craftbukkit.legacy.CraftLegacy] Initializing Legacy Material Support. Unless you have legacy plugins and/or data this is a bug!

how can you initialize legacy material support?

[eternal oxide]

set your api version to 1.13

[hard socket]

Material#getMaterial

then bunch of if checks

[eternal oxide]

set an API version in your plugin.yml of at least 1.13

[umbral ridge]

its not my plugin

but i set it

now works

also this warning from multiversecore is starting to piss me off

and fail with colors &a

as if some 15yo made it

its just spamming the console

[eternal oxide]

what event?

[umbral ridge]

I dont know

im using the latest version

[eternal oxide]

console should be telling you

[eternal oxide]

in that case there should be another error somewher when using MV

[umbral ridge]

and they still havent fixed that

last update was on september 2023

[eternal oxide]

Seems like its org.bukkit.event.entity.EntityCreatePortalEvent

[umbral ridge]

can entities create portals? other than players

[eternal oxide]

the new event is CreatePortalEvent. Looks identical to teh Deprecated one. Seems just a name/package change

is better as teh new event gives a reason

[umbral ridge]

if anyone reports this as bug they just ignore it

or if someone just tells them about the warning

https://github.com/Multiverse/Multiverse-Core/issues/2000

Its spamming the console

and uses dumb colors that dont event apply

[quaint mantle]

what is the alternative to Java Consumer in kotlin? contracts?

[slender elbow]

just T -> Unit ?

[tardy delta]

^

[quaint mantle]

thanks

[tardy delta]

or just use Consumer if you really want

[quaint mantle]

how is this called to search in docs

[eternal oxide]

Build yoru own version and update https://github.com/Multiverse/Multiverse-Core/blob/17129f68d204438f1d8e134388b72507dc8c1a63/src/main/java/com/onarandombox/MultiverseCore/listeners/MVPortalListener.java#L41

[tardy delta]

lambda?

https://kotlinlang.org/docs/lambdas.html

[umbral ridge]

thanks! :D

[tardy delta]

people doing size == 0 instead of isempty, cringe

[quaint mantle]

thanks mate

[grim hound]

to invoke PlayerInteractEvent, which packets does the server use?

[sterile breach]

What is pipeline exactly?

[grim hound]

pipeline is the linear array of channel handlers

so in other words

there's a first channel handler

which is the first to process any data

and the last one

wait no

the first channel handler is the last one to process outgoing data

okay

had to ask friend

last process first outgoing

first process first incoming

you should also know

that there are Inbound and Outbound handlers

[sterile breach]

Ah pipeline contain handlers who handle incoming ans outgoing packets, all packets pass in the pipeline?

[grim hound]

when writing (outgoing) outbound handlers get to process

when reading (incoming) inbound handlers get to process

all of which are in the same pipeline

in the same linear array

[blazing ocean]

gpt the best friend

[sterile breach]

For example, does spigot add its handler to the pipeline with inbound and oubound, or does it add one to inbound and one to outbound?

[grim hound]

it does none

it listens to packets by modifying mojang's code

and they need to add handlers

[sterile breach]

Ah nms instead?

[grim hound]

yeah

[sterile breach]

In the code you showed me (AlixSystem) you add an handler in the pipeline at the same "level" that NMS?

[grim hound]

there are no levels in netty

this might help

there are many more handlers but this is a simplified version

[grim hound]

when the server receives a packet, netty handles it

[sterile breach]

It's a complex fear for me if I summarize, in the pipeline we have 2 parties, the "out" and "in" there are inside handlers and the packet is sent once each handler has finished with this event right?

[grim hound]

yes

but inbound handlers don't handle write, and vice verse outbound handlers don't handle channelRead

[grim hound]

but both coexist in the same linked queue

(for whatever reason)

[sterile breach]

What type of data should be the handler ? A consumer ?

[grim hound]

it needs to implement ChannelHandler

but for you it'll be best to use ChannelDuplexHandler

[sterile breach]

Okay okay

[sterile breach]

Thank you for all these explanations 👍

[grim hound]

np

👍

[grim hound]

as this one

[grim hound]

handles both

it's both inbound and outbound

[sterile breach]

So I provid my inBound handler and outBound handler

[grim hound]

with this one class yes

[sterile breach]

Can we set "priority handle"? (For example if I want to handle before nms)

[grim hound]

for that you need to place your channel handler before theirs

like this

[sterile breach]

Ah okay is .addbefore

Packet_handler is nms packet handler ?

[grim hound]

it's the name of it, ye

[sand spire]

Hey, so I just finished coding one ability and it works but it's 733 lines long.

I googled how I can give myself less of a headache when I look at it and what I found is that I should have only one responsibility per class. Which makes sense because I notice most opensource plugins do the same and it's easily understandable (although I have no idea why people make 10 classes with basically nothing it usually interfaces).

But my question is how do figure out the different responsibilities from my class, like is there a general rule to know what is a different responsibility and how niche should you go when sorting a giant class in multiple smaller classes?

Right now I only create different classes for objects used in my ability class. I think I could split my class in a Listener, PacketListener, Runnable and a class that connects everything but then it would still be messy just split in different classes.

Any advice is appreciated (my room, and this message probably are also a mess pls help)

[grim hound]

remove nested if statements

seperate different statements

for example add a class for utilities

and group together in the same package classes with something in common

[grim hound]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoA6aZPR5K0 dunno try this

I watched a bit and for now agree with everything

[sterile breach]

just to be sure, in the pipeline, the channel concept already exists?

[grim hound]

the channel exists always

it's created the very moment the connection is accepted

[grim hound]

the very first thing that is done is the channel being created after the socket is accepted

[sterile breach]

channel concept is created in netty?

[grim hound]

I'm not sure what you mean by "concept"?

[grim hound]

but yeah

the Channel object is instantiated by netty

[sterile breach]

i'm not quite sure but from what i know, in the network itself there are no channels just "tram" or "frames" (i don't know if it's said like that in english but it's the packets that are sent basically) the concept of channel is more or less to group the packets arriving according to the ip of the client that is coming from

but yes, it must be netty

[grim hound]

tram?

[sterile breach]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_(networking)

[pliant topaz]

To gen the jar with mojang maps it's just 'Generate Remapped Jars' right? i never worked with the gui version and I'm not sure haha (buildtools)

[sterile breach]

eng word is frame

[grim hound]

that's a frame

[sterile breach]

you need to add something in pom.xml

[grim hound]

?mappings

[undone axle]

Compare different mappings with this website: https://mappings.cephx.dev

[sterile breach]

yes, here channel concept don't exist I think

[grim hound]

wait no

?nms

[undone axle]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/nms-use-mojang-mappings-for-your-spigot-plugins/

[grim hound]

oh yeah

[pliant topaz]

thats teh thing, it's for the cmd version I'm just dumb xd sorry

[sand spire]

Thank you, and I also watched that video but I'm having difficulty deciding how niched down I should order different classes to follow the single responsibility principle, because I would argue my entire class has one responsibility which is to add an ability but that logic is obviously flawed

[grim hound]

that ability is made up of multiple parts

one probably being the cooldown

the other one displaying particles

and the other maybe moving some mobs

[sand spire]

I guess, my ability is basically making the player invisible and using packets to replay everything the player did a few ticks later. I already have the invisible part somewhere else it just takes a lot of checks and listeners to copy everything the player does

[grim hound]

hmm I do that myself

then no idea

[grim hound]

plugging a lot of code when it's just replaying data

[sand spire]

xd

[grim hound]

anyhow check this out

hand

in mc

3d

[sand spire]

oh that's sick you also showed this in packetevents discord haha

[grim hound]

yeee

didn't know you were there

[grim hound]

not sure how I could make a captcha from this tho

maybe I should just make the armor stands never touch each other?

[sand spire]

what do you even use as an imput for it to show ingame? like a png without background?

[grim hound]

I generate a some letters on a 2d buffered image object

rotate them randomly

and use some stolen adapated code to show it in 3d space

all while filtering any white pixels

[earnest path]

wtf is that bro?

[sand spire]

Sounds complicated xd, is it the same for the hand?

[grim hound]

basically generate this but without any extra random lines

[grim hound]

hand is completly different

I download a 3d object

roughen it up in blender (cuz they're too detailed)

and then use other stolen adapted code to show it in 3d space

[sand spire]

cool, to solve the captcha you gotta type 👆

[tardy delta]

omtfk ig

[grim hound]

yeah maybe I can make this work

by just making them more distant to each other

[grim hound]

and here I planned to have it point where you click it to point

[sand spire]

ah

[nova notch]

Ok but what's the captcha word supposed to be because it's kinda open to interpretation

Hand? Finger? Point?

[grim hound]

nono xD

the action bar is just from the former code

the new challange will have 12 (or maybe more) different points

and you can click on them and the hand will change rotations

and one of them will be red instead of white

and it'll say click on the red point

and then you confirm

that's how I envisioned it

[torn shuttle]

thanks, I hate it

also you didn't have to roughen it up in blender, there's a way to solve that volumetrically but whatever

[grim hound]

same

[grim hound]

I really dislike this

[grim hound]

uh

uhh

I like your funny words magic man

[torn shuttle]

it's a voxel game

you just need to pick a scale and fill in the volume

it doesn't matter if you hand has 3 vertices or 3 million

[wet breach]

3 million sounds like it would be more fun

[torn shuttle]

if you think about it I'd be way more interested in seeing the 3 vertex hand

[wet breach]

oh that is true too 🤔

[torn shuttle]

a triangle with a hand texture drawn on it

[wet breach]

would have that 90's feel to it

[torn shuttle]

also it's not that rare to get 1mil tri hyperrealistic models, I'm sure there's hands with that level of detail available for download

especially when you're doing it from detailed scans

[grim hound]

it beat him

he doesn't know what an 8 is

[nova notch]

ima be honest i dont even know what thats supposed to say

[grim hound]

JUu8K

[nova notch]

it looks like a wacky W

fix ur captcha

[torn shuttle]

unironically this is what amazon does

[grim hound]

yeah that was a test

[grim hound]

?

[shadow night]

it looks fine imo

[nova notch]

i guess im just a fuckin robot then but that doesnt look like Uu

[torn shuttle]

I'm 99% sure amazon's capcha is not meant to be solvable on the first one they show

[sullen canyon]

yea I thought it was W

[grim hound]

I will remove the letters being in each other

or rather

[torn shuttle]

the first one they show is almost always entirely unreadable, and the second one is always basically just fine

[grim hound]

enlarge the distance in-between them to avoid that

[gilded granite]

how can I update a chat message?

I want to make a progress bar

that doesnt flood the chat

[grim hound]

why's that?

make the bots only solve the 2nd one

with OCR

[shadow night]

Lol

[torn shuttle]

I don't know

[pseudo hazel]

just use a checkbox 😉

[torn shuttle]

if someone just told me what I just said I wouldn't believe them, but I at the same time I refuse to believe that it is a coincidence that amazon has failed to present me a single 1st try solvable capcha in the last 2 years on their first try

[quaint mantle]

https://paste.md-5.net/busafelura.xml
Any specific reason why the compiled jar has the name passengerstrain and not BedwarsEssentials?

[gilded granite]

any1?

[torn shuttle]

you can't modify an already sent chat message

[nova notch]

why not use action bar or titles or bossbar

[torn shuttle]

some plugins pretend to do this by re-sending most of chat in a single go but editing one message in there, but effectively that's just spamming the client with brand new messages

[grim hound]

tf is this then

[quaint mantle]

Boop beep

[gilded granite]

even with nms?

[torn shuttle]

as far as I know

maybe that changed

[gilded granite]

even with server modification?

[torn shuttle]

that's beyond the scope of what we do support for here

[gilded granite]

ok

[worldly ingot]

That delete chat packet can only be used to delete a signed message

You have to have chat signatures enabled. Which is fine. You should. But not a lot of servers support it because chat management is difficult

We don't expose it in the API either because we don't expose message signatures anywhere

[grim hound]

bruh wtf is that last method

netty, u good?

[worldly ingot]

Fast check using bitwise operators

[grim hound]

I can see that

[grim hound]

but still

[worldly ingot]

If any of those result in a negative number, it's out of capacity

Kind of a neat way to write that

[grim hound]

addition is done before bitwise

[worldly ingot]

Yes, and if they overflow into a negative 👀

[grim hound]

would need to be pretty bing for that

[slender elbow]

I severely doubt it's much faster than just a regular if bounds chdck

[worldly ingot]

I mean probably

[grim hound]

how are you adding these?

[slender elbow]

especially after c2, lol

[worldly ingot]

Could be curious to have it benchmarked

I'm sure they didn't write it using bitwise operations just because they could

[slender elbow]

If you have a question, please just ask it. Don't look for staff or topic experts. Don't ask to ask or ask if people are awake or available. Just ask the question to the channel straight out, and wait patiently for a reply. Make sure you use the right channel regarding the topic of your question.

if it aint broke man

I mean

it's still kinda broken...

[blazing ocean]

okay yeah that is kinda cool

i do need something like that for my structure lib too

[worthy yarrow]

So it's based off players current view, the issue is that I need to align the display with the actual dimensions of blocks to relay a better placement grid as it were

[blazing ocean]

https://x.com/LukynkaCze/status/1806075722802315451 thought of just doing osmething like this

cool visual selection/wireframe thingy for the map manager tool im working on

[worthy yarrow]

Right now the offset makes it look like it can be pasted in half way of block

[worthy yarrow]

Damn it be looking better than WE

[sleek estuary]

supports ipv6?

[blazing ocean]

tcpshield should support it

but their docs kinda suck at that stuff

[worthy yarrow]

I just wanted a way to make the cuboid region like they did in housing on hypixel, which is essentially what I have now apart from the offset being a bit bugged still

[blazing ocean]

how does it look on there

i updated some stuff btw

[worthy yarrow]

The same but with redstone particles, and it only works with the //wand region you make. So my plugin is prebuilt structures with item placeholders, schem file names are stored with the items pdc which I then use to grab the correlated schem and determine dimensions for the visual overlay this way

@blazing ocean

[blazing ocean]

epic mention fail

[worthy yarrow]

Idk if you were still here or not kek and I forgot to reply

[blazing ocean]

i have this open on my second monitor

[worthy yarrow]

Idk why I always forget people have multiple monitors, I've been on my laptop for so long

[blazing ocean]

i want a third one

[worthy yarrow]

I have a second monitor though I think the hdmi hardware is busted on the laptop

For some reason it detects the monitor but won't shoot over the display or inputs

[blazing ocean]

windows moment

[eternal oxide]

usually a CTRL+Fn key to switch monitors

[worthy yarrow]

It's one sided though

the laptop tells me it knows a monitor is detected but I cannot do jack shit with it kek

[velvet plaza]

does anybody have any spigot plugin/api/library/anything that needs PRs. im tryna do more open source stuff

[onyx fjord]

is there a tool that calculates the amount of chunks that will render with specific view distance?

[worthy yarrow]

Not that I've heard of

[worldly ingot]

I mean it's just (radius * 2)^2 isn't it?

The fog is circular in modern versions though so they're not "rendered" but they're loaded

[worthy yarrow]

Did gpt make this formula up

I love gpt'ing peoples questions lol

[ornate patio]

is threre a scoreboard update event

[worldly ingot]

No that looks right and close to what I said, only it +1’s which makes sense

[clever spear]

hey choco you here?

add me for a minute

[sleek estuary]

Is it better to have 200 schedulers that each set a block after 15 minutes scheduled at different times or 1 global scheduler that sets the 200 blocks at once every 15 minutes?

[tardy delta]

global

just think about it

[sleek estuary]

but isn't 200 blocks a lot of load?

[rough drift]

or

d^2

[tardy delta]

200 isnt

[rough drift]

no

I once saw like what

[sleek estuary]

if was 1000?

[rough drift]

48k schedulers at once?

It was running perfectly fine

[tardy delta]

idk 200000 maybe

there was some article on the speed of some methods to set blocks

i hope you mean tasks instead of schedulers

[sleek estuary]

why

[sleek estuary]

from what I know it is to reduce the load

[tardy delta]

yes

[sleek estuary]

set the blocks not all at once but gradually set them

[tardy delta]

not even that

[sleek estuary]

should i do this for 200 blocks?

[tardy delta]

no

[sleek estuary]

I'm scared

[earnest girder]

I need to add 5 custom crops to my server. They will be already existing blocks, but I want them to have a name tag with their custom plant name above. How should I go about doing this?

[sleek estuary]

Would you say that autosave being 11 minutes is too long?

[earnest girder]

One problem I've encountered with using armor stands is that there is no way to check when the plant block breaks in order to also destroy the armor stand, so it can leave floating armor stands

[tardy delta]

you mean a name above the crop block itself or the item in the inventory?

[earnest girder]

above the block

[sleek estuary]

why more safe

[inner vigil]

can someone send me via dm a example of how i change the full displayname of a Player i dont get it

[tardy delta]

i forgot if a crop has a persistent data container but if it doesnt you can probably save it in the chunks one; which crops exactly are one of your "custom" ones, depending on that, in the block break event, you can give a custom item or something
wanted to send this initially

should the broken crop drop something custom too, or just the vanilla item?

[tardy delta]

internals changing or smth, idk tbf

[tardy delta]

i mean you can detect the breaking in the block break event

you can detect crop trample with the interact event

[shadow night]

Reminds me of a thing

?blockpdc

[undone axle]

Learn about CustomBlockData here:
https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/custom-block-data-persistentdatacontainer-for-blocks.512422/

[tardy delta]

you can just map those locations to armor stands or something

[clear elm]

how can i change players displayname

[tardy delta]

that question is vague mate

theres Player::setDisplayName or you can change the name above their head

[clear elm]

ok

[shadow night]

Does that even change the name above the head

[tardy delta]

no

last time i did that was ages ago so ig it still happens with scoreboards/packets

correct me if im wrong

[blazing ocean]

that functionality is very fucking limited

you can only set a prefix, colour and suffix

for other stuff you need a text display

[tardy delta]

packets 🤡

[blazing ocean]

well

no not really

[blazing ocean]

you can only do this with them too

[gilded granite]

any1 got a tutorial for local database?

[tardy delta]

what you need the tutorial for?

just google spigot working with databses

[torn shuttle]

god I love this little bot I made

this must've been the most time efficient project I've ever made

[tardy delta]

bot be like ⏳ 🤔 ⏳

worst nightmare would be when it starts telling nonsense

[torn shuttle]

yeah it can take up to a minute to answer

it does some times hallucinate things but it has been getting better as we chip away at it, plus I'm usually around to correct it when it goes off the rails

[tardy delta]

great

i should make a bot for javadocs

[torn shuttle]

I did suggest something like this for spigot

genuinely think for 90% of beginner questions, if it was set up correctly it would do a better job at answering them than any of us could be bothered to do

[tardy delta]

elgarl would loose his job

[torn shuttle]

mark my words this kind of assistant will be widespread in 10 years

it's more convenient to query it than find the links myself and I both made the bots and wrote the docs it is basing the info off of

and even I just ask it to give me info and links when I'm not sure about something

honestly if I get into game dev I might make a bot like this for whatever game engine I end up really using because it would be a game changer

[tardy delta]

it probabaly will

[torn shuttle]

feels good to be among the first, I still haven't really seen other people do this

[eternal oxide]

I did a bot for Towny IRC years ago but it eventually went mad

[acoustic mantle]

Good evening,

I am in the process of writing an MC plugin and have little experience... now I'm facing a few problems and can't get any further....

In the end I have uploaded my plugin to my server but it is not installed or displayed, maybe someone can find the problem quickly or has suggestions for solutions

Would someone be willing to take a look at this and help me ... ?
I come from Germany, but can also write/speak English.... hit me up

[torn shuttle]

see that's the kind of query bots do really well with

[acoustic mantle]

lmao

[tardy delta]

did you put it in the plugins dir?

[tall dragon]

if its not displayed. there must be an error on your console. show that to us and we can help you.

[acoustic mantle]

ofc, think i missed something out in structure or smthing

[acoustic mantle]

gimme a sec

[torn shuttle]

don't forget the plugin.yml info is not optional

[tardy delta]

it is if you use the annotations kekw

anyways it generates it

[acoustic mantle]

unfortunately i can't retrieve the logs from this stupid provider or go that far back in the logs.... do you have any experience or solutions?

[tardy delta]

cant even access the console?

[tall dragon]

well, cant you startup your server and see?

[acoustic mantle]

yes i can, but the logs are so fast that i can't keep up and unfortunately i can only look back a certain number of lines at a time... what a bummer...

[tall dragon]

thats... interesting

why not run it locally?

without seeing an error.. it could be a number of different issues

[torn shuttle]

logs and console are not the same thing

logs are stored in the logs folder

[acoustic mantle]

i´ll do that...gonna come back after i´ve set up the exact same

[acoustic mantle]

youre damn right

[torn shuttle]

console is just a screen that shows a live feed of what ultimately gets dumped

[tall dragon]

which he cant access

[acoustic mantle]

gimme a sec

[tall dragon]

aperantly

[acoustic mantle]

i can, you got me wrong there

[tall dragon]

ah alright

[acoustic mantle]

wait a asec

[torn shuttle]

you guys have not been doing support for long enough

do another 10,000 support tickets and you'll know these fun tricks

@torn shuttle this you? https://www.reddit.com/r/memes/comments/7akjya/final_boss/

[torn shuttle]

speaking of, I am soooo close to the magic number

I'll be upset if I'm not there for it

[acoustic mantle]

The last saved logs are from before the plugin was rolled out... how can I trigger logs manually or something ? are logs logged at every restart ?

[tall dragon]

they are logged live

[acoustic mantle]

got the newest ones... wait a asec

i guess this is the part we need :

[tall dragon]

yea so the path to your main class is invalid

[torn shuttle]

underscore in the package name, bad move

[tardy delta]

Gg_plugin is your class name?

[torn shuttle]

underscore in the class name, also bad move

[acoustic mantle]

why is that the case

[torn shuttle]

goes against the recommended code style

package names are all lower case and all letters, class names capitalize the first letter of each word, no space no underscore

[acoustic mantle]

where do i need to correct that ?

[tall dragon]

in your plugin.yml

it should point correctly to whichever class extends JavaPlugin

[torn shuttle]

am I nostradamus

[acoustic mantle]

oups, in my plugin.yml there is no path at all xd

can i private chat to someone ?
I guess i need some futher help here bc im very new into coding and especially in MC context...

[tall dragon]

u can if u want but there's more people here so it should go quicker

[acoustic mantle]

i get it

cant upload screen here :/

[tall dragon]

yeeaaa u need to verify ur spigot ac for that

[acoustic mantle]

wait a sec

[tall dragon]

if its text u can paste it

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[acoustic mantle]

its not unfortunately

where do i get the verification at ?

i didnt receive a private message or mail so far

[tall dragon]

?verify

ah

i dont even remember tbh

[acoustic mantle]

xd

[tall dragon]

i thought it was a cmd

[acoustic mantle]

ill figure it out

*!verify

[blazing ocean]

?img has a link to the channel

[undone axle]

Can't send images? That's because you're not verified! Use !verify to complete verification.
Alternatively, you can upload screenshots to any image hosting site and share the link.

Here's some screenshot utilities that you can use to upload images.
Lightshot: https://prnt.sc

nvm

i thought it did

[tall dragon]

well it does tell u what to do

[acoustic mantle]

"A private message has been sent to your SpigotMC.org account for verification!"

but i dont know where to look at that message xd nvm

org.bukkit.plugin.IllegalPluginAccessException: Unable to find handler list for event org.bukkit.event.block.BlockEvent. Static getHandlerList method required!

Seems like for some reason you just cant use this event

I'm confused

[worthy yarrow]

 @Override
    public HandlerList getHandlers() {
        return HANDLERS;
    }

    public static HandlerList getHandlerList(){
        return HANDLERS;
    }

For any custom events you need a static getHandlerList method iirc

[earnest girder]

is it custom?

org.bukkit.event.block.BlockPistonEvent

[worthy yarrow]

Are you just passing an event to an @EventHandler method?

[earnest girder]

        double newTemperature = event.getTemperature();
        handleTemperatureUpdate(player, newTemperature);
    }```

The example I gave is from impl of a custom event

I think you're using the wrong event

[earnest girder]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/block/BlockPistonEvent.html

[worthy yarrow]

Try extend/retract events

I don't think BlockPistonEvent has a getHandlers method

[earnest girder]

ok

[restive mango]

Anyone know how to get LevelChunk for ClientboundLevelChunkWithLightPacket? For a given bukkit chunk.

[earnest girder]

do I need to make a getHandlers method?

[worthy yarrow]

I feel like you'd have to rewrite the whole BlockPistonEvent and register it as a custom event (which includes adding a handlers method) But tbf would probbaly better off using the retract/extend events instead

[earnest girder]

ohh

I see thanks

[worthy yarrow]

Yeah BlockPistonEvent has no handler method by default so you'd have to implement that yourself

[restive mango]

i hope nuclearkat is about to elucidate me too 😄

oh

no

darn

[worthy yarrow]

Hold on

Is this plib or packet events?

Or nms

[restive mango]

nms

[worthy yarrow]

eek

Not my game use a lib kek

Wrappers make it so much easier

[restive mango]

im updating someone else's plugin who has since left the dev team so im just trying to update some of these old methods for 1.20.6

[earnest girder]

are these real events?

[worthy yarrow]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/block/BlockPistonExtendEvent.html

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/block/BlockPistonRetractEvent.html

[worthy yarrow]

Hold

[earnest girder]

nice thanks

[worthy yarrow]

https://wiki.vg/Protocol_FAQ

With some digging you might be able to find 1.20.6 packets here

[restive mango]

wub

ClientboundLevelChunkWithLightPacket IS the 1.20.6 packet

it's just

the method to get LevelChunk has changed

it used to be you could getHandle from a craftworld chunk

[worthy yarrow]

This is why I recommend just using a lib for packet work haha, you get proper docs rather than hunting through nms code

[gilded granite]

What is the diff between playerHarvestBlockEvent and BlockBreakEvent

[worthy yarrow]

- PlayerHarvestBlockEvent


This event is called whenever a player harvests a block.
A 'harvest' is when a block drops an item (usually some sort of crop) and changes state, but is not broken in order to drop the item.
This event is not called for when a block is broken, to handle that, listen for BlockBreakEvent and BlockDropItemEvent.

...


- BlockBreakEvent


Called when a block is broken by a player.
If you wish to have the block drop experience, you must set the experience value above 0. By default, experience will be set in the event if:

The player is not in creative or adventure mode
The player can loot the block (ie: does not destroy it completely, by using the correct tool)
The player does not have silk touch
The block drops experience in vanilla Minecraft
Note: Plugins wanting to simulate a traditional block drop should set the block to air and utilize their own methods for determining what the default drop for the block being broken is and what to do about it, if anything.

If a Block Break event is cancelled, the block will not break and experience will not drop.```

[gilded granite]

Ok thx

[worthy yarrow]

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

jdocs do wonders hah

[worthy yarrow]

.

[gilded granite]

Is the BlockBreakEvent only for player or with creeper and stuff?

[worthy yarrow]

BlockBreakEvent is called any time a block is broken by a player

[gilded granite]

ty

**Random random = new Random();
int randomNumber = random.nextInt(100);
if(randomNumber <= 0.1){
e.getPlayer().getInventory().addItem(new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND));
}
**

Is this great way for probability?

[pseudo hazel]

no

what does nextInt(100) do

[gilded granite]

its the bound

[pseudo hazel]

right

so a number between like 0 and 100

and you want it to be below or equal to 0.1?

i.e. when its 0

[worthy yarrow]

Less than a 1% chance btw

[gilded granite]

yes its 1 in 1000 chance

[pseudo hazel]

I mean if thats the chance you are going for sure, but it looks weird

well no

[grim hound]

No

[pseudo hazel]

its an int

[hard socket]

its 0 1 2

[grim hound]

It's 1 in 100

[hard socket]

not .1 .2

[gilded granite]

so i just do Random random = new Random();
double randomNumber = random.nextDouble(100);

[grim hound]

Why the fuck are you comparing an int to a double

[grim hound]

There isn't

A fuckin

Next double

[pseudo hazel]

just do a random double between 0 and 1 and check if its <= 0.01

or whatever

[hard socket]

just make the bound 1000

[pseudo hazel]

yeah or that

[gilded granite]

there is

[hard socket]

        int randomNumber = random.nextInt(1000);
if(randomNumber <= 1){
                e.getPlayer().getInventory().addItem(new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND));
            }```

[grim hound]

With an int argument?

[grim hound]

Or whatever argument

[gilded granite]

work fine

[grim hound]

The fuq is thag

[pseudo hazel]

yeha its just implicit cast

[grim hound]

What java version

[gilded granite]

last one

[pseudo hazel]

22?

[worthy yarrow]

22?

[grim hound]

That explains it

23

[worthy yarrow]

oh 23 came out finally?

[gilded granite]

21

[pseudo hazel]

ah right

[grim hound]

No idea, but I already read the source code of some of it's classes

[pseudo hazel]

yes, if you are using them for double arguments

[grim hound]

That's not the point

[worthy yarrow]

Well considering that 100 is defined as a double in random.nextDouble, that implies it's actually 100. ...

Right?

[grim hound]

Bruh there'll be Java 25 in 2026

[worthy yarrow]

Or so they say

[grim hound]

23 in september this year

[gilded granite]

is this better way? double randomNumber = random.nextDouble();
if (randomNumber <= 0.1) { // 10% chance
e.getPlayer().getInventory().addItem(new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND));
}

[grim hound]

Well it does work

[pseudo hazel]

also use codeblocks for code, not bold markdown xD

[grim hound]

But I'd do random.nextInt(10) == 0

[gilded granite]

yeah forgot how to do it

[pseudo hazel]

triple backticks

`

[gilded granite]

ok thanks

[worthy yarrow]

(not for small little functions like that but rather larger ones) ?paste

[gilded granite]

made this function is this better public boolean probabily(int chance, int totalProbability) { Random random = new Random(); int randomNumber = random.nextInt(totalProbability); return randomNumber < chance; }

[worthy yarrow]

This looks nice for reusability, also a stateless function so you could make that static

[gilded granite]

I don't quite understand Im new to java

[worthy yarrow]

basically a stateless object is something that doesn't hold/store data

That function you have is stateless because it just returns you a calculated result, theres no storing of data here

[gilded granite]

I've made it static but I can't use it outside of the class

Got it working sory

[rose frigate]

i have a question how can i use getConfig here to get the String List "unsafeBlocks"

public class rtp /*extends JavaPlugin*/ implements CommandExecutor, Listener {

    private final HashMap<UUID, Long> combatLog = new HashMap<>();
    private static final long COMBAT_COOLDOWN = 10 * 1000; // 10 seconds

    @Override
    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command command, String label, String[] args) {
        if (sender instanceof Player) {
            Player player = (Player) sender;

            Bukkit.getLogger().info(ChatColor.GREEN + "Hugo rtped");

            World world = player.getWorld();
            Random random = new Random();

            int x = random.nextInt(10000) - 5000;
            int z = random.nextInt(10000) - 5000;
            int y = world.getHighestBlockYAt(x, z);

            Location randomLocation = new Location(world, x + .5, y + 1, z + .5);

            player.teleport(randomLocation);


            List<String> unsafeMaterials = plugin.getConfig().getStringList("unsafeBlocks");
            Block generatedBlock = world.getHighestBlockAt(x, z);
            Block higherBlock = world.getBlockAt(x, generatedBlock.getY() + 2, z);
            if (unsafeMaterials.contains(generatedBlock.getBlockData().getMaterial().name()) || unsafeMaterials.contains(higherBlock.getBlockData().getMaterial().name()))
                ;
        }
        return true;
    }

}```

[gilded granite]

[nimble bear]

and im trying to make it so when you are a seeker and when the seeker is tagged a command is ran

and i cant figure out how to run the command ill send what i have

how do i send it in the code format like above?

[gilded granite]

use triple `

[nimble bear]

        if (players.contains(player)) {
            players.remove(player);
            if (seeker == null) {
                seeker = player;
                player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "You've been tagged! You are now a seeker!");

                // Run command to morph player into Freddy
                Bukkit.dispatchCommand(seeker, "/mpm1");

                // Run command to morph player into Freddy
                Bukkit.dispatchCommand(seeker, "/mpm1");

                // Remove blindness and slowness effects from tagged player
                player.removePotionEffect(PotionEffectType.BLINDNESS);
                player.removePotionEffect(PotionEffectType.SLOW);
                player.setWalkSpeed(0); // Prevent movement
            } else {
                seekers.add(player);
                player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "You've been tagged! You are now a seeker!");

                // Remove blindness and slowness effects from tagged player
                player.removePotionEffect(PotionEffectType.BLINDNESS);
                player.removePotionEffect(PotionEffectType.SLOW);
                player.setWalkSpeed(0); // Prevent movement
            }

            // Spawn red firework explosion
            spawnRedFirework(player.getLocation());

            // Transform the player into a different skin
            transformPlayerSkin(player);
        }

        if (players.isEmpty()) {
            endRound();
        }
    }

uhh

oops

[gilded granite]

so what is the problem

[nimble bear]

the command is not working

everything else is but the command execution

[gilded granite]

send the command code

[nimble bear]

being this part

     // Run command to morph player into Freddy
                Bukkit.dispatchCommand(seeker, "/mpm1");

                // Run command to morph player into Freddy
                Bukkit.dispatchCommand(seeker, "/mpm1");

[gilded granite]

is this your command code?

[nimble bear]

Yeah

im trying to get a regular like command to play

like from the minecraft game itself

[gilded granite]

did u implements CommandExecutor in the class

[nimble bear]

yes i believe so

import org.bukkit.command.Command;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandExecutor;

??

[eternal oxide]

Why are you using dispatchCommand? Is it not your plugin?

[gilded granite]

no its like public class HideAndSeekCommand implements CommandExecutor {

[nimble bear]

no it is my plugin

i was looking up how to execute commands in the plugin i only know VERY basics

[nimble bear]

hmmm let me check

[eternal oxide]

why are you using dispatchCommand? its yoru own plugin so just call the method

[nimble bear]

No i dont think so

[nimble bear]

how do i do this???

[eternal oxide]

teh same as calling any method

[gilded granite]

just use the method onCommand with CommandExecutor

[nimble bear]

Alright let me try this

[rose frigate]

Yeah somehow i cant do it with plugin.getConfig i get an error saying java:cant find symbol

[nimble bear]

nope

it didnt work

[gilded granite]

show me your folder tree

[nimble bear]

Wait so

Now its saying in the console /help

after i tag someone

[gilded granite]

send me the command code

[nimble bear]

Its a modded command but i shortened it with a plugin

[gilded granite]

show me the code of it

[eternal oxide]

modded?

[nimble bear]

The command is /mpm1
which makes this command run
/morph Skiylix blockbuster.fred_3d {Hitbox:{Eye:0.9f,Sneak:1.65f,Enabled:1b,Height:1.7f},Skin:"b.a:fred/skins/AaronBase.png",Scale:0.97f,Settings:{Hands:1b}}

it used to be like @p & @s

[eternal oxide]

morph is not your command/plugin?

[nimble bear]

the MORPH command is from the BlockBuster mod, HOWEVER im trying to get the command to run everytime a player is tagged

[gilded granite]

a mod?

like fabric?

forge?

[eternal oxide]

dispatchCommand will not trrigger a mod

[nimble bear]

forge

[gilded granite]

show me where you shorten it

[nimble bear]

I shortened it with another plugin called MyCommand

so it says this

command: /mpm1
type:

• RUN_COMMAND
  runcmd:
• /morph Skiylix blockbuster.fred_3d {Hitbox:{Eye:0.9f,Sneak:1.65f,Enabled:1b,Height:1.7f},Skin:"b.a:fred/skins/AaronBase.png",Scale:0.97f,Settings:{Hands:1b}}

but when i run the command ingame it works perfectly fine

[young knoll]

I smell cursed hybrid

[nimble bear]

Im sorry! can i not ask for help if im using mods? (this is a serious question)

[eternal oxide]

you can

but dispatchCommand will nto trigger a mod as it never leaves teh spigot command system

[nimble bear]

ouuu okay okay

is there another way i can get the command to be used?

[gilded granite]

when you use the command in game you do only /mpm1 or /mpm1 playername?

[nimble bear]

just /mpm1

but thats to run the shortcut

so this command

/morph Skiylix blockbuster.fred_3d {Hitbox:{Eye:0.9f,Sneak:1.65f,Enabled:1b,Height:1.7f},Skin:"b.a:fred/skins/AaronBase.png",Scale:0.97f,Settings:{Hands:1b}}```
i need to clarify the player which would be the seeker

[gilded granite]

when you shorten it does it do /morph @s ?

[nimble bear]

Yeah i can do
/morph @s blockbuster.fred_3d {Hitbox:{Eye:0.9f,Sneak:1.65f,Enabled:1b,Height:1.7f},Skin:"b.a:fred/skins/AaronBase.png",Scale:0.97f,Settings:{Hands:1b}}

[gilded granite]

ok breh then simply do Bukkit.dispatchCommand(seeker, "mpm1"); instead of Bukkit.dispatchCommand(seeker, "/mpm1");

[nimble bear]

kk

[gilded granite]

remove the /

[earnest girder]

is there any way to prevent wheat from growing? is there a crop grow event or something?

[nimble bear]

hmmm it doesnt seem to be working

[gilded granite]

where do you call your tagPlayer?

[nimble bear]

This?

public void onPlayerTag(EntityDamageByEntityEvent event) {
        if (event.getDamager() instanceof Player && event.getEntity() instanceof Player) {
            Player damager = (Player) event.getDamager();
            Player damaged = (Player) event.getEntity();

[gilded granite]

yes but show the full eventHandler

[nimble bear]

public class PlayerTagListener implements Listener {

    private final HideAndSeek plugin;
    private final StartGameCommand startGameCommand;

    public PlayerTagListener(HideAndSeek plugin, StartGameCommand startGameCommand) {
        this.plugin = plugin;
        this.startGameCommand = startGameCommand;
    }

    @EventHandler
    public void onPlayerTag(EntityDamageByEntityEvent event) {
        if (event.getDamager() instanceof Player && event.getEntity() instanceof Player) {
            Player damager = (Player) event.getDamager();
            Player damaged = (Player) event.getEntity();

            if (startGameCommand.isGameRunning() && startGameCommand.isSeeker(damager) && startGameCommand.isHider(damaged)) {
                startGameCommand.tagPlayer(damaged);
            }
        }
    }
}

[gilded granite]

show me the full startGameCommand class

[nimble bear]

the entire thing?

[young knoll]

BlockGrowEvent

Iirc

[gilded granite]

yeah

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[nimble bear]

kk

Done

[earnest girder]

yup found it, not sure why I couldnt lol

[nimble bear]

Theres some things in the code that have stopped working that im going to try to figure out after, but my main problem right now is trying to get the skins to change/ the command to run after the seeker tags a hider 🤦‍♂️

[gilded granite]

private void transformPlayerSkin(Player player) {
// Example command to morph player into a custom skin using /morph command
String command = "/mpm1";

    // Dispatch the command
    Bukkit.dispatchCommand(Bukkit.getConsoleSender(), command);
}

same remove the /

[nimble bear]

kk

[gilded granite]

and what is your command to start the game?

[nimble bear]

./startgame

no period lol

[gilded granite]

have you registered it in the main class?

[nimble bear]

the command?

[gilded granite]

yes

[nimble bear]

Yeah

[gilded granite]

what happens when you do /stratgame then?

[nimble bear]

it starts

everything works perfect

when i tag them they wont change skins

or the command wont work basically

[gilded granite]

any console errors?

[nimble bear]

its been saying only the ./help recently

so i just removed the last / so im gonna try it again now

[gilded granite]

ok

[nimble bear]

still doesnt work

but im getting this everytime i tag someone

[20:15:33 INFO]: Unknown command. Type "/help" for help.

[gilded granite]

what does it says befor that like [02:16:23 INFO]: Player issued server command idk?

[nimble bear]

Nope

[20:15:21 INFO]: Skiylix issued server command: /startgame
[20:15:21 INFO]: Skiylix is the seeker!
[20:15:31 INFO]: The hiding phase has ended. Seeker is now seeking!
[20:15:33 INFO]: Unknown command. Type "/help" for help.
[20:15:38 INFO]: TestingA is the seeker!

it starts a new round after i tag someone cause its just me and testinga lol

[gilded granite]

u sure its the right command

[nimble bear]

i can try the specific one

the longer one and see if it works?

because its going thru the plugin then using the command

maybe if i just try the command now

[gilded granite]

in here```private void transformPlayerSkin(Player player) {
// Example command to morph player into a custom skin using /morph command
String command = "mpm1";

    // Dispatch the command
    Bukkit.dispatchCommand(player, command);
}```

try that

[nimble bear]

Put it there?

[gilded granite]

replace it

[nimble bear]

@s doesnt work

[20:21:28 INFO]: The hiding phase has ended. Seeker is now seeking!
[20:21:29 INFO]: Entity '@s' cannot be found
[20:21:34 INFO]: Skiylix is the seeker!

[gilded granite]

send me back the long command

[nimble bear]

/morph @s blockbuster.fred_3d {Hitbox:{Eye:0.9f,Sneak:1.65f,Enabled:1b,Height:1.7f},Skin:"b.a:fred/skins/AaronBase.png",Scale:0.97f,Settings:{Hands:1b}}

[remote swallow]

Bukkit.select something replaces the @s

Idk what the exact method is called

[worthy yarrow]

Am I looking at a command block rn?

[nimble bear]

???

yes

[gilded granite]

try that
Bukkit.dispatchCommand( "morph " + player +" blockbuster.fred_3d {Hitbox:{Eye:0.9f,Sneak:1.65f,Enabled:1b,Height:1.7f},Skin:"b.a:fred/skins/AaronBase.png",Scale:0.97f,Settings:{Hands:1b}}");

[nimble bear]

kk

[nimble bear]

do i replace the string command? or the dispatch the command

[gilded granite]

or Bukkit.dispatchCommand( "morph " + sender +" blockbuster.fred_3d {Hitbox:{Eye:0.9f,Sneak:1.65f,Enabled:1b,Height:1.7f},Skin:\"b.a:fred/skins/AaronBase.png\",Scale:0.97f,Settings:{Hands:1b}}");

do both

[young knoll]

You’ll want to use getName

[nimble bear]

kk

[gilded granite]

yeah so use sender instead

[nimble bear]

kk

Theres no variable for sender

[gilded granite]

use player then

player.getName()

[nimble bear]

uhhhh

theres an error

I cant change the second one

[nimble bear]

i changed the string command but i cant change hte dispatch the command one

OMG

IT WORKED!!!

[gilded granite]

nice

[nimble bear]

THANK YOU SO MUCH

ill send u a video of what iw as trying to do

[eternal oxide]

congrats. I didn;t expect dispatchCommand to work, the same as it won;t work on a Bungee server

[gilded granite]

the dispatchCOmmand only runs any command as a player

[eternal oxide]

yeah but it never leaves the server, which is why it won;t trigger Bungee plugin.

[gilded granite]

bungee server no

[eternal oxide]

its not coming from teh client so Bungee never sees it

[gilded granite]

but its a forge mod

[eternal oxide]

mods seem ok

I've been wrong twice in two days 😛

[nimble bear]

you cant see the skin bc im on a diff acount testing it

buttt

@gilded granite https://medal.tv/games/minecraft/clips/igmCG281W6FLMwYvq/d1337CDu6BXP?invite=cr-MSxYRFEsMTkzNzY3NTA5LA

[gilded granite]

nice

[nimble bear]

thank you sooooo much!

[gilded granite]

btw dont use gpt next time

[nimble bear]

LMFAOOO ik it messed up some of my stuff i did

[gilded granite]

Yeah its kinda ass

[nimble bear]

facts

[subtle folio]

what’s the best way to do custom items? is it PDC? serializing and storing in a config file? mainly just checking what item is what ya feel me?

[worthy yarrow]

pdc

[torn shuttle]

pdc

[subtle folio]

pdc it is, thanks a lot

[remote swallow]

Pdc

[subtle folio]

are you sure?

i heard pdc was for the weak

[remote swallow]

Yes

Im as sure as you are keeping up with roblox streams

[torn shuttle]

@vagrant stratus question about resource posting rules, I'm making a free plugin that among other things autohosts resource packs on my dedicated server, I assume this doesn't run afoul of any resource rules and I should be fine even if I eventually paywall this specific feature behind a subscription if I run out of server capacity to do this? (I don't want to paywall it, but might not have a choice beyond some point)

[pseudo hazel]

why not host of github or smth like it

[torn shuttle]

I wouldn't know how to do it, nor do I particularly think that would be an allowable use case of their servers

[pseudo hazel]

wdym

its just putting a file that you can get to with an url

[torn shuttle]

no

it's putting potentially thousands of zipped resource packs the then distribute to tens of thousands of people

[pseudo hazel]

oh

well I didnt knowyou had thousands of zipped packs

[torn shuttle]

I don't today but I don't plan for failure

[pseudo hazel]

unless the plugin is about hosting resource packs I guess

[torn shuttle]

it is, it's a resource pack manager

[pseudo hazel]

okay

[torn shuttle]

it automerges and autohosts

[pseudo hazel]

I thought you just had a resource pack for your plugin haha

that kinda changes my answer lol

but then yeah

I think it should be acceptable to do what you said initially

I guess the best answer is gonna come support
