With custom resource packs can you have like multiple UIs under one name so I e.g can use the furnace inv as a normal furnace but also as a custom mashine when I give it a special tag or smth

[pliant topaz]

Not really

Such invs are made by having custom fonts and items with custom textures for overlays (which have a custom model data specified)

So in the Furnace you have the option to put such an item in one of the slots, which would sacrifice this slot to the purpose of showing the custom ui

[blazing ocean]

why items

you literally just use a bitmap for the background

thats it

[pliant topaz]

well yes

but he wants the other as a normal furnace

[blazing ocean]

you just use a title

i don't get thr issue

[pliant topaz]

bruh

forget that u can change the title

i literally said 'by having custom fonts' 🤦🏻‍♂️

yep, my brain aint be braining again

Using nms to set blocks is it posible to do it async? Or it has to be in the main thread as well

[chrome beacon]

The world is not thread safe

You can do it async with both api and nms as long as it's on the main thread

[mossy prairie]

What is the right way to remove tooltip attributes from a GUI item now that ItemFlags no longer work in 1.21?

[eternal night]

they work ™️ you just need to add a dummy attribute modifier first

[mossy prairie]

itemMeta.addAttributeModifier(Attribute.GENERIC_ATTACK_SPEED, new AttributeModifier("test", 0, AttributeModifier.Operation.ADD_SCALAR))
itemMeta.addItemFlags(ItemFlag.values());
itemStack.setItemMeta(itemMeta);```

Something like this?

[eternal night]

yea sure

[mossy prairie]

Enchantment still appears thought

[eternal night]

Hmm

[slender elbow]

highly flexible system

[mossy prairie]

Fixed the issue was how I was adding the enchantment totally my bad 🤦‍♂️

[vocal cloud]

how do i get a .png (any size) from myfiles
to change to a 128x128 and then to a ingame minecraft map that i can use later?

[chrome beacon]

[vocal cloud]

yea but then to a minecraft map

[hard socket]

how can I check if a player hit a crit?

[chrome beacon]

Make a map renderer

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/map/MapRenderer.html#render(org.bukkit.map.MapView,org.bukkit.map.MapCanvas,org.bukkit.entity.Player)

[chrome beacon]

I believe you need to check the conditions manually

[hard socket]

how is that

[chrome beacon]

https://minecraft.wiki/w/Damage#Critical_hit

Alternatively use NMS

[hard socket]

thnks

[sage patio]

what should i use for newer versions?

spigot-api 1.20.4

[hard socket]

    return player.getFallDistance() > 0.0F && !player.isOnGround() && !player.isSprinting() && !player.isInWater() && player.getVelocity().getY() < 0;
}```
this should do it

[hard socket]

you cant get BlockFace class from Vector class

[sage patio]

isn't direction a vector?

[chrome beacon]

yes

[sage patio]

ow i saw can instead of can't for a second my bad

[sage patio]

so what should i do in newer versions?

[chrome beacon]

You can calculate the block face yourself

[hard socket]

now you say that yeah it was changed

it used to be in the Block interface

[eternal oxide]

getBlockFace() has never been a method of Vector

[sage patio]

return location.getWorld().getEntities().stream()
    .filter(entity -> 
        VersionMediator.isItemFrame(entity) &&
        (!VersionMediator.supportEntityFacing() || entity.getFacing() == location.getDirection().getBlockFace()) &&
        boundingBox.contains(entity.getLocation().toVector())
    )
    .map(entity -> {
        final Location entityLocation = entity.getLocation();
        Vector flooredEntityLocation = new Vector(
            entityLocation.getBlockX(), 
            entityLocation.getBlockY(), 
            entityLocation.getBlockZ()
        );
        final Vector relativeLocation = flooredEntityLocation.subtract(location.toVector());

        final int x = (int) relativeLocation.dot(location.getDirection().getXDirection());
        final int y = (int) relativeLocation.dot(location.getDirection().getYDirection());

        final int height = layout.getSize().getHeight();
        final int width = layout.getSize().getWidth();

        if (y < 0 || y >= height || x < 0 || x >= width) {
            return null;
        }

        ItemFrame itemFrame = (ItemFrame) entity;
        return new FrameContainer(itemFrame, x, y);
    })
    .filter(Objects::nonNull)
    .collect(Collectors.toList());

this is the java code i'm trying to use

[eternal oxide]

That is not spigot api

[raw epoch]

hello, do someone have a plugin or something to disable players collisions?

[sage patio]

iirc you can disable that in your spigot/paper config

[raw epoch]

i'l check!

[sage patio]

i'm sure it is in paper configs, not sure about spigot

[raw epoch]

paper do that yep, thx

[pliant topaz]

vanilla teams can do it to if u need to change it at some point in ur plugin

[inner mulch]

this is a general question, i was wondering, when i have a client-server setup, how does the client access server methods? does they client just have the servers-module as a dependency? or is this handled completely different?

(with sockets)

[shadow night]

It doesn't access server methods, instead it sends a packet asking the server to do a specific thing which it then does

[inner mulch]

are these packets in a common module? so both have access to the class

[shadow night]

Yes I believe

[pseudo hazel]

probably

otherwise it would just be kinda stupid

[inner mulch]

this would also mean that the common module has a depency of the server-module, so that the packets can do their thing?

[pseudo hazel]

why

the packets are just wrappers for the data that gets sent

[inner mulch]

i thought of packets in more of a abstract method "doThing"

[pseudo hazel]

its like deciding to use json between your front and backend

[shadow night]

There can be packet classes/definitions inside of the common module and the server or client can then define how sending and receiving these is implemented

[pseudo hazel]

it would be a server.sendPacket(Packet.DO_THING(whatever))

they just agree on a format that the data will be in

and then the server and client send and receive these packets of data and from what they agreed on they know what to do

and that agreement is the packet module with all the packet definitions probably

[jagged quail]

bastard.

[inner mulch]

okay, thanks, do you have an idea on how i can implement methods for each packet? does they server just have a map of all the different packets and then a runnable to decide what to do?

[pseudo hazel]

do you mean implement as a server?

[inner mulch]

yeah how does the server implement the logic if it isnt directly in the packet

i would need a map or something

[pseudo hazel]

right, well there is like a giant listener on the client server connection that probably decodes the packets and then determines what to do

im not sure exactly the details of it

but it would have to be some big ass switch statement probably xD

[inner mulch]

not really

Map<Class<? extends Packet>, Runnable>>

[pseudo hazel]

or however else you wanna do it

right

same thing

[inner mulch]

is there a way i can detect whether a class is vanilla java or not?

[chrome beacon]

what do you mean by vanilla java

and why do you need to do that

[inner mulch]

a class that comes with java

like Object

Integer

[chrome beacon]

.

[inner mulch]

because im deserializing objects

and i dont need that for fields that exist in java

[chrome beacon]

odd design choice

[inner mulch]

?

[chrome beacon]

You can probably use the package name and class loder

though I see no reason to do so

[slender elbow]

module

but yeah it just sounds like you're doing something wrong

[inner mulch]

how else am i supposed to deserialize?

[chrome beacon]

??

[slender elbow]

well, how are you deserializing?

and what does skipping "fields that exist in java" mean and how does that play a role in your deserialization process

[inner mulch]

im saving fields name and value, if its a object thats not from plain java i will get the values and fields from that too

im not breaking it down to bytes

[slender elbow]

so, you aren't deserializing Lists?

[inner mulch]

yes, both applications are java so i can just send lists in their normal form

[slender elbow]

and why not other objects

this is so absurdly confusing

what are you serializing to? what's your target format

[inner mulch]

it doesnt matter, whats the proper way to deserialize?

[slender elbow]

it does matter

there is no one universal way of serializing an object without knowing the target format

like, how does this format work that you need to serialize custom types and objects but a built-in ArrayList isn't?

[inner mulch]

because both applications are java, but both applications dont have all the same libraries

[slender elbow]

you still need to serialize lists and maps in some form

you can't just send that through the wire like you can pass it to a method

[inner mulch]

i will try that

it does work

i can send maps

[slender elbow]

but they are being serialized somehow to be able to be sent over the network

[tender shard]

ah yes

[slender elbow]

you can't just send a List through a network socket lol

not to mention that the individual elements of the list/map might be custom types as well

[inner mulch]

i just did

[tender shard]

what did you send? the list's hashcode?

[inner mulch]

no

the list object

[slender elbow]

can you please for heaven's sake show some code

the suspense is killing me

[inner mulch]

ObjectOutputStream objectOutputStream = new ObjectOutputStream(socket.getOutputStream());
objectOutputStream.writeObject(new HashMap<>());

[slender elbow]

💀 object stream

[inner mulch]

?

[slender elbow]

guess what

that is serializing to a byte array

[inner mulch]

nice

[slender elbow]

you'll still have to handle the case of ^ :3

you can provide any Serializable object to the OOS

you don't have to manually serialize anything

but ¯_(ツ)_/¯

that aside, what you asked for isn't exactly viable, not all classes in the jdk are Serializable, meaning the OOS will fail to serialize them (e.g. ByteBuffer)

[inner mulch]

:(

[shadow night]

Not like you can't serialize them yourself

[slender elbow]

but not all objects are serializable

[blazing ocean]

RegistryFriendlyByteBufs my beloved

[slender elbow]

what does that have to do with anything

[blazing ocean]

idk you mentioned bytebufs

[slender elbow]

I like rollercoasters

[shadow night]

I prefer deep fried images

[slender elbow]

metal window frames are better

[shadow night]

Hmm maybe, but what about carrying over the bits instead?

[serene estuary]

How does the knowledge book handle custom items? As in, items with a custom model/texture which apply NBT tags to override PAPER?

I have a working custom item, with a working recipe (which shows in the knowledge book), but despite having the correct ingredients in my inventory, the recipe only shows as red. Clicking the red recipe puts all the correct items in the table -- I'm curious why this would be and if the crafting table/knowledge book is funky when it comes to custom items/recipes?

[dawn flower]

is there something that is similar to threads but isn't really threads? it's still sync but i can stop execution

[blazing ocean]

my adhd ass could not be assed to read any of the context and just saw byte bufs

[dawn flower]

or delay it

line 1
line 2
line 3
line 4
line 5```
if this code was in the "thread" and i stop the "thread" execution at line 3 it wouldn't pass to line 4 or 5

and if i delay the "thread" at line 2 by 100 ms, it would take 100ms after line 3's execution to execute line 4

if that makes sense (it prob doesn't)

[blazing ocean]

i also have to express my love for nms on a daily basis

Hi can someone help me? Im trying to fix a plugin for my server, the thing is not working is a unclaim system to a towny alternative.

The error is for the code lines:

    `val edit = FastBlockEditSession(world)`   *fastblockeditsession is highlighted red*

import phonon.blockedit.FastBlockEditSession blockedit is highlighted red

[pseudo hazel]

is phonon some kind of library or something?

[fallow estuary]

I think yes

phonon is the name of the creator

i can send you the source if you want

i compiled the plugin as it says on the guys github

can you delay a loop without delaying the whole thread

[hazy parrot]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/scheduler/BukkitScheduler.html#runTaskLater(org.bukkit.plugin.Plugin,java.lang.Runnable,long)

[dawn flower]

that won't work

[hazy parrot]

?

[dawn flower]

that delays a statement

[hazy parrot]

why

[dawn flower]

i want to delay the next iteration

[hazy parrot]

it takes runnable

oh next iteration

[eternal oxide]

scheduler. just write your code properly

[hazy parrot]

cant u use this https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/scheduler/BukkitScheduler.html#runTaskTimerAsynchronously(org.bukkit.plugin.Plugin,java.lang.Runnable,long,long) ?

not async

but u get idea

[dawn flower]

honestly

i'm not sure

prob not, it iterates a list without a delay

[hazy parrot]

can u show what are u trying to do

[dawn flower]

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

[hazy parrot]

and what u want to be delayed ?

[dawn flower]

something similar to skript's delay

[hazy parrot]

for (ParsedElement element : parent.getElements()) loop ?

[dawn flower]

yeah

[brazen badge]

Why the itemDisplay is like this and not an item on the ground?

ItemDisplay itemDisplay = (ItemDisplay) world.spawn(item.getLocation().subtract(0, .2, 0), ItemDisplay.class, (item_display) -> {
                        item_display.setItemStack(item.getItemStack());

                        item_display.setItemDisplayTransform(ItemDisplay.ItemDisplayTransform.GROUND);
                    });

[dawn flower]

dear lord

use an Item entity

[dawn flower]

skript's iterating depends on the current action calling "walk" or whatever it is, so it just delays the call to "walk"

i can't tell if they're genius or i'm dumb, but i'm prob gonna do that as well

[chrome beacon]

It's inside a block

[brazen badge]

i want an item on the ground, not a block

[humble tulip]

Trying to build my own cross server auction house(for learning redis). I have not yet built the cross server commutation part that actually uses redis yet but I'm looking for any tips you giys might have about ensuring that something isn't bought twice. My general setup is going to be as such

Item posted on auction house, push to mysql and redis and send a message on a pub sub channel. Then when a player tried to buy the item, I check that it's still in redis before allowing them to buy it. And then removing it. The issue sort of lies here where by another server with a player also can check if the item exists in redis before removing it and in essence, the item is able to be bought twice

[chrome beacon]

Well blocks are rendered like that

You just gotta scale it down

[humble tulip]

Is there any sort of Map.remove like in java where I can get and remove in 1 op?

[brazen badge]

it's an itemDisplay not a blockDisplay tho

[humble tulip]

That way i can attempt removal and see if something was actually removed

[chrome beacon]

yes

            - "test":
                - "broadcast test3"
        - "broadcast test4"```
"test" just executes what's inside of it, TurboAction#next just calls the other next method

[grim hound]

don't

ever

use bukkit scheduler for async

bukkit scheduler for async should only really be used when you would like to have your task executed at the time of the tick loop, just async to the thread

[dawn flower]

i think i fixed it, idfk how but it just worked after messing around with numbers

ok now it broke again lmfao

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

    actions:
        - "test":
            - "broadcast test1"

        - "test":
            - "broadcast test4"
        - "broadcast test5"```
it broadcasts from test1 to test3 then spams test4 and never gets to test5

how can I get all the keys used after in a config section?

[dry thistle]

Hello guys, i seem to have a very common problem but i don't find any solution.
I want to have an inventory with one empty slot and the player to put an inventory into that slot. After putting the item into the slot I want to close the inventory and do something with the item. My problem is that in the InventoryClickEvent, the currentItem and also the inventory is the old version like before the action happend. So both of them are null at the point the event is called. But I just want to know which item the player put into the empty slot. Do you guys have an idea how to solve this problem ?

[chrome beacon]

The event is called before the item is fully placed in to the slot

you probably want getCursor

Do note there are other ways of moving the item such as the number keys

and also draging an item causing the InventoryDragEvent

It does tell you what to do

[fallow estuary]

i have git installed

Looks like it's not on your path

[fallow estuary]

how do i fix it

[chrome beacon]

The installer should place it there but if it for some reason didn't

you can put it there manually

[fallow estuary]

like the git installer?

[chrome beacon]

Are you on Windows

[fallow estuary]

yes

[chrome beacon]

yes

[fallow estuary]

ok

[chrome beacon]

Open environmental variables for the system and find PATH

add a new entry pointing to the bin folder of your git install

[fallow estuary]

what

[fallow estuary]

i dont understand that

[chrome beacon]

Which part

[fallow estuary]

the new entry

pointing to the bin etc

[chrome beacon]

Path is a list, you'll see when you get there

[primal mica]

hi, my sword is "losing" attributes when the item is not full health, I'm setting setAttributesModifiers(null), but if I getAttributesModifiers() before is also null

Sword full health -> (have attributes)
Sword not full health -> (lost damage attributes)

[worthy yarrow]

Then find Path

[worthy yarrow]

Is it path in sys variables or user?

[chrome beacon]

It exists in both

[worthy yarrow]

Oh thats right

[chrome beacon]

well not install but you get what I mean

oh wait i cant send img

If you want to hide the modifier information

use addItemFlags

[fallow estuary]

like this?

the last one is the path

[chrome beacon]

now add a new entry with the path to the bin or cmd folder of your git install

just like the other entries are

[fallow estuary]

what? like i put the downloads path ?

like this

[chrome beacon]

No the folder where git is installed

[fallow estuary]

oh ok

git cmd bash or gui

[chrome beacon]

They are both in the same folder

[primal mica]

no I want the info shown, the problem is that the sword is losing the attributes and doing damage like fists

[fallow estuary]

ok, so C:\Program Files\Git or C:\Program Files

[chrome beacon]

C:\Program Files\Git\cmd

[fallow estuary]

ok

this?

[chrome beacon]

Then you have something modifying damage

[chrome beacon]

yes

[fallow estuary]

ok

[primal mica]

I'm just setting AttributesModifers to null, but it is already null

[chrome beacon]

There is something else messing with damage then

[fallow estuary]

same error

[chrome beacon]

items won't just randomly loose their attack

[chrome beacon]

Restart cmd

[fallow estuary]

ok

[primal mica]

when I set AttributesModifiers to null with no enchants and sword full life nothing happens, but setAttributesModifiers to null when it has enchantment or ir damaged the sword lose the attack damage

[chrome beacon]

so why are you setting it to null

when you know it's the issue

[primal mica]

because I have 2 system of combats, player can toggle it with /toggle-combat

[worthy yarrow]

So then what's the issue what

It sounds like that's what you want

[chrome beacon]

Remove the attribute modifiers you've added

[primal mica]

I'm setting to null to reset the combat to "vanilla (1.9 cooldown)"

[chrome beacon]

Don't forcibly remove them all

That will just break things for no reason

[primal mica]

hm so I have to remove it by uuid? but it is already null by default

[chrome beacon]

?

Why do you want to remove something that doesn't exist

[primal mica]

private ItemStack fixDamage(boolean attackSpeed, ItemStack itemStack)
{
    if(itemStack != null && TYPE_DAMAGES.containsKey(itemStack.getType()))
    {
        ItemMeta meta = itemStack.getItemMeta();
        
        meta.setAttributeModifiers
        (
            attackSpeed ? null : TYPE_DAMAGES.get(itemStack.getType())
        );
        
        itemStack.setItemMeta(meta);
    }
    
    return itemStack;
}

[chrome beacon]

That's a bad way of doing it

As I said don't forcibly override all of the attribute modifiers

Add the ones you want

and remove them when you no longer need them

[primal mica]

ok I 'll try it

[worthy yarrow]

This is a nitpick but why would attack speed be a boolean? I'd try to find a better descriptor for that variable

I mean I understand why, just feels very misleading

[primal mica]

attackSpeed is like "newCombat"

[worthy yarrow]

Yeah I get that

It's just you can modify the actual attack speed attribute by a float iirc, that being said this should be called like newCombat or something

[primal mica]

so instead of set null i will try to loop (if it is not null) and clear them all

[chrome beacon]

no

Remove only the ones you have added

[primal mica]

but it is weird because in doc it says "Set all Attributes and their AttributeModifiers. To clear all custom attribute modifiers, use null. "

[chrome beacon]

Do NOT remove modifiers added by someone else

[primal mica]

is that what I want clear all CUSTOM attributes

"To set no modifiers (which will override the default modifiers), use an empty map."

You're trying to put stuff in that map so it should be super

Instead of extends

[inner mulch]

okay let me try

i feel like i have to do some casts

[chrome beacon]

Could you show the RequestCreateMap

[inner mulch]

sure

[chrome beacon]

You're most likely better of not using a wildcard in this case

I don't really see why you would want to

[inner mulch]

i need to use wildcards so that all the classes of a type are accepted, no?

[chrome beacon]

That applies without the wildcard too

[chrome beacon]

You sure you have the right import

[inner mulch]

yes im gonna invalidate caches now

still the same

when hovering over the requestcreatemap it even shows

so im not sure what java wants from me

[chrome beacon]

try just going back to ? extends

[inner mulch]

this works now :)

seems like it was a cache issue

[chrome beacon]

yeah

[fallow estuary]

How do i update a plugin? from 1.18.2 to 1.20.1

[trim quest]

This question can be taken in many different directions. First of all, do you have the source code of the plugin or is the project an open source project?

[fallow estuary]

yes it is open source

[trim quest]

so if it is you can update it but you need java knowledge.

[fallow estuary]

😦

i need to update it because of a NMS class that changed from 1.18.2 to 1.20.1

[trim quest]

even changing version of plugin 1.18 to 1.18.x(latest) can cause a problem

R1 to R2

[fallow estuary]

oh

this is the error

is it hard to fix?

i mean to like update

[eternal oxide]

outdated plugin

[fallow estuary]

yeah ik

i want to update it

[eternal oxide]

I have never heard of phonon

[fallow estuary]

his nodes plugin is for geo servers

[eternal oxide]

there is an official Flagwar plugin for towny

[fallow estuary]

[fallow estuary]

is like

the plugin works doing small territories so you cant annex a town capturing a few chunks only

[eternal oxide]

last I checked Towny is NCND so you likely will not get any help with a fork

[trim quest]

are you turkish?

[fallow estuary]

no

[trim quest]

hm

if you want to rebuild some old projects just start with version independent project architecture. @tender shard has brilliant guide for it you should look at it!

[fallow estuary]

Ok thx

[trim quest]

you can give support for 1.8 to current version

but this will take a lot of time

hypixel used to false ban a lot until they made it almost impossible to get banned by flagging an anticheat, at some point using reach of 3.4 was bannable

moderators used to false ban too and there was no way to get unbanned even if you had evidences, I literally know no situation when someone got their ban appeal accepted

[eternal oxide]

I only play on my own hosted servers. I know I can;t get banned then 🙂

Like I don't get why it's checking the repos for the local files also everything was working perfectly withh 1.19.3 and rn I'm updating to 1.21.1

It isn't just item-nbt-api-plugin it's literally any plugin I try to add as a dependency

I update item-nbt-api

I used it in another project

hey guys i wanna remove dropped item when the player break block,

            Player player = blockBreakEvent.getPlayer();
            ItemStack item = player.getInventory().getItemInMainHand();

            if (item.getType() == Material.AIR) return;

            Block block = blockBreakEvent.getBlock();
            block.setType(Material.AIR);
            blockBreakEvent.setCancelled(true);

            System.out.println("test ");

I tried this but it doesn't work well how can I cancel to drop item?

[buoyant viper]

looks like theres a setDropItems method

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

[blazing robin]

set it as false?

[buoyant viper]

probably yeah

[blazing robin]

            if (blockBreakEvent.isDropItems()) {
                Block block = blockBreakEvent.getBlock();

                blockBreakEvent.setCancelled(true);
                blockBreakEvent.setDropItems(false);
                block.getDrops().clear();
                block.setType(Material.AIR);
                System.out.println("hi?");

Is ur plugin dropping items wjen breaking bloxks?

Its most likely one of ur plugins dropping items but not calling that event while doing so

[sterile breach]

I have a message broker to link my servers and my proxy, is better to have one channel per server or one channel for proxy and one another channel for all servers ?

[agile anvil]

It totally depends on what kind of messages you want to exchange

[sterile breach]

It dépend, in the most time all servers need to get it but sometimes just 1 need to get it

[agile anvil]

Then it's better to only use one. It is way easier to manage and shouldn't have some efficiency issues

[sterile breach]

Maybe I can use one global and one per server ?

[blazing robin]

Hey guys is there any way to retrieve all color stained glass & pane?

[blazing robin]

I fixed it dropItem has existed in my another plugin lol

[agile anvil]

Easiest way is one global

When you need only one server to get it, do some logic on your message to identify the server

[agile anvil]

Get all Materials (Material#values) and filter the names containing "STAINED_GLASS"

[blazing robin]

Thank youuu i fixed it

  glassList.addAll(Stream.of(Material.values())
                .filter(material -> material.name().contains("STAINED_GLASS") || material.name().contains("STAINED_GLASS_PANE"))
                .toList());

[agile anvil]

you can remove the unecessary material.name().contains("STAINED_GLASS_PANE") ("STAINED_GLASS_PANE" is included in "STAINED_GLASS")

And don't forget to fill this glass list only once for performance issues

[blazing robin]

got it thank you

[sterile axle]

does Player#setRespawnLocation set the spawn location even for the player's first join?

i.e. if I call it in PlayerJoinEvent (or earlier, maybe PlayerLoginEvent), will they spawn at the location I set? or do I need to teleport them?

It's not written on the doc. Might have to try it yourself

[sterile axle]

yeah i wasn't getting the info i needed from doc so asked here

ill try it out. thx

update: it doesn't

[copper spade]

how do I do setResourcePack("http://localhost:8888/rp.zip) for whatever reason it says failed to download 1 of 1 but the pack definitely works and is fine if I host on google drive etc.

How do you get localhost working with setResourcePack(), bearing in mind I have gone into my server's docker container (pterodactyl) and I can curl the resource perfectly fine!

[blazing ocean]

localhost would be the clients localhost. remember, the client always downloads it. remember to check its console if any errors occur

[copper spade]

Ah. How would I get it to download off the servers localhost? Ad the console never displays any errors! Very annoying, I have tried adding debug statements etc.

[blazing ocean]

i meant the clients console. you would need to expose that port and use the external ip

[copper spade]

Hmmmm. Super annoying you can't just use local files, as its packaged in with my plugin. Is there any nicer ways to handling resource packs?

[blazing ocean]

nope, that's the only way

since the client has to download it

it cannot be sent directly as that would exceed the packet size limit i believe?

so that's not a thing

[wet breach]

Is the server and client on the same system?

[copper spade]

Yeah, makes sense. Shame the server can't mandate it, I can have it set in server.properties and do it that way, but I don't like it.

[blazing ocean]

well you can

you just need those extra arguments to the method

[copper spade]

No. It makes complete sense now, as @blazing ocean pointed out its done from the client not the server

[blazing ocean]

• you can kick on rejection, there's an event for status change

also for the sake of your users, i would provide the hash to that method call so it actually gets updated on change / no need to redownload it every time

[copper spade]

I could have saved a few hours just by joining this discord yesterday!

Ideally I wanted the resourcepack within the jar, that then uploads it to the server (which it does), spins up a http server and pulls it down. But if it is starting the http server on the server, the client cant grab that unless I open the port

[wet breach]

You can make a tiny http server in your plugin to provide resource pack. You dont need to hard set in server.properties you can just send the packet instead with the url which would be ip or domain of mc server

[copper spade]

Yeah I need to open up a port then

[blazing ocean]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#setResourcePack(java.lang.String,byte[],boolean) probably what you are looking for

[copper spade]

Thank you both! Can't believe I missed client v server localhost! So silly.

[wet breach]

Typically port 80 is not blocked unless you have a firewall settings already for the host system of the mc server

[copper spade]

I'll probably dump it on a random point anyhow to avoid any clashes, unless there is a neat way to host the file on 80 or 443

And have it like http(s)://<myserver>/resourcepacks

[wet breach]

Yes you can unless you already have a webserver listening on those ports

[copper spade]

Maybe NGINX?

[wet breach]

If you have nginx then why you need resource pack in your plugin?

[blazing ocean]

i would recommend using something like javalin inside of your plugin, i host my pack servers on (mc port) - 1 or similar

[wet breach]

This is ideal since next port higher is used for udp

[copper spade]

Could you expand a little " host my pack servers on (mc port) - 1 or similar"

[blazing ocean]

i run a web server on that port which provides the pack

[wet breach]

If port for mc is 25565 then minus 1 which id 25564 for port

[copper spade]

Sorry, I am VERY new to all of this 😁 Very helpful

[wet breach]

And with that time for me to go home

[blazing ocean]

essentially, i:

• compile my resourc pack
• create a zip file to /tmp
• read the bytes of that and store it in memory
• remove the file
• start a web server which then responds with those bytes

my system is a bit more complex since i am using my own resource pack compiler library but it should get the point across

[copper spade]

It does. I will get that working later, thanks all

[stuck oar]

Anyone know

[smoky anchor]

What are "stacked spawners"

[stuck oar]

like if you right click a spawner block with another spawner it adds it to the "stack", for easier placement of spawners

[pliant topaz]

i mean, you could increase the amount of mobs that spawn each cycle

[stuck oar]

yeah that is something i think i would do but is there some data value i can change so that when they are broken it drops the amount in the stack

[agile anvil]

Use Persistant Datacontainer on that placed spawner. When you break that bloc just get the value and change the drops

[stuck oar]

alright thank you

[normal thicket]

    @Override

[chrome beacon]

Usually you'd have multiple repositories

Repo pattern is a pattern where there will be layer that have no business logic, it's just interacting with db

And yes, u usually have multiple repos, depending on your model

Any ideas on how to install ProtocolLib with Gradle on 1.21.1 on Pterodactyl

I think I need the jar on my Pterodactyl server, is there no way I can do this through my build.gradle and plugin.yml?

For other jars I just use

libraries:

• "io.javalin:javalin:6.2.0" as an example

[tender shard]

plugin.yml can only load libraries from maven central

[blazing ocean]

it doesn't work with the libraries feature, you need to compileOnly("..."), add their repo and install the plib jar

[vocal cloud]

quick question how do you get a block cords like diamond_block?

[tender shard]

you mean the name

[copper spade]

So does this need to be done manually or can you use plugin.yml?

[tender shard]

Material.DIAMOND_BLOCK.getKey().getKey() would be "diamond_block"

[vocal cloud]

oke thanks

[blazing ocean]

you do that in your gradle build script

[vocal cloud]

is that in all worlds all cods?

[tender shard]

cods?

[vocal cloud]

x y z

[tender shard]

you want to get a list of all coordinates where a certain block type is placed?

[vocal cloud]

yea

[blazing ocean]

@copper spade https://github.com/dmulloy2/ProtocolLib?tab=readme-ov-file#using-protocollib they have a section about gradle

[vocal cloud]

or in a rotation of like 100 of a player

[tender shard]

then you have to loop over all blocks that are within X blocks of the player, check their block type, add the matching ones to a list or set or whatever, and return it at the end

[vocal cloud]

o sounds lagy XD

[copper spade]

So I have dependencies {
compileOnly("io.papermc.paper:paper-api:1.21.1-R0.1-SNAPSHOT")
compileOnly('com.comphenix.protocol:ProtocolLib:5.1.0')
}

and repositories {
mavenCentral()
maven {
name = "Minecraft ProtocolLib"
url = "https://repo.dmulloy2.net/repository/public/"
}

it downloads fine but then on the server i get org.bukkit.plugin.UnknownDependencyException: Unknown/missing dependency plugins: [ProtocolLib]. Please download and install these plugins to run 'PotionMaster'.

[tender shard]

you can do it async with a chunk snapshot

[vocal cloud]

?

[tender shard]

well you need to install ProtocolLib

[robust helm]

also cache it and only search on chunk load event

[blazing ocean]

add the protocollib jar to your plugin directory

[vocal cloud]

oke i think i got it

[copper spade]

Yes that was what I was asking, can this not be done automatically through plugin.yml

[blazing ocean]

no, you need the plib plugin too

[copper spade]

Urgh thats a shame. I guess I could upload the jar to the plugins dir in my gradle build.

[onyx fjord]

can i send basecomponent as title somehow?

[blazing ocean]

you need to install the plugin on the server

[blazing ocean]

nms

[onyx fjord]

bruh

[tender shard]

are you not using adventure?

[copper spade]

yeah and if I upload the .jar in the build.gradle and send a reload confirm then this would automate that process

[onyx fjord]

hell nahw

i dont like it's workflow

[blazing ocean]

wdym upload it in your build.gradle?

[copper spade]

Send a post request to the server with the jar file

[blazing ocean]

🤨

just install the jar on your server once

[copper spade]

ok ok ok

[blazing ocean]

that works for every plugin that uses it

so you only need one plib jar in there

[robust helm]

When making an api for my server(lets say for storing data to a database): Do i create it as a normal plugin or as some weird library thingy?

[chrome beacon]

a plugin is fine

[robust helm]

and where do i then put general api functions? like lets say to specfiy the database url idk

[chrome beacon]

The database url should be provided in a config file

Don't hardcode it in to the plugin

[robust helm]

also true, bad example. In my case its a kit api so where would i put methods like getKit(Player player)? KitManager class?

or a seperate KitAPI class for general methods

[chrome beacon]

Both are fine

If you want the KitAPI class you'd usually just have it as a wrapper for the kit manager

to make other developers life easier

[robust helm]

and the KitAPI is not the JavaPlugin child right?

[chrome beacon]

no

That would be KitPlugin or smth like that

[robust helm]

Alr thank you!

[pale plover]

[vocal cloud]

texturepacks?

[chrome beacon]

Yeah you can use some resource pack trickery

[chrome beacon]

for what purpose

[vocal cloud]

like https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/eating-animations

[pale plover]

while(player.isOnline()) {

    }

[chrome beacon]

This will kill the server* or be unsafe and waste of resources if run in another thread

[vocal cloud]

Unexpected token
Cannot resolve symbol 'player'

[pale plover]

.

[chrome beacon]

You don't have a variable called player

[vocal cloud]

no?

[chrome beacon]

^^ suggest following some Java tutorials before starting with Spigot

[vocal cloud]

lol well i tryed but java is rily big

i thought to just start and learn on my way

[chrome beacon]

yeah but skipping it won't help you

[copper spade]

How would I do this. I already have a texture pack remapping food items to look like potions. Could I add the drinking animation to that then ?

[tender shard]

i really don't understand why IJ only sometimes shows the parameter name

[vocal cloud]

fore server?

like forced texturepack?

[pale plover]

kotlin 🤢

[copper spade]

No no texture pack is working but how could I make it so that the item has the drink animation?

[vocal cloud]

ummm wait

[copper spade]

I assume it’s because I do an event cancel so that stops it and then I apply stuff but obviously won’t have the animation

If it’s not possible that’s fine

[remote swallow]

It's something weird, it's called inlay hints if you wanna check settings

[pale plover]

[tender shard]

I checked my settings, I had only some of them enabled, now I enabled all but still no change :/

[remote swallow]

It's like if the method param is the same name as a variable you pass it doesn't have it but if it's diff it does

[tender shard]

huh I think it's because of generics

oh no wait it isn't. I think it's just bugged

[hybrid trellis]

Why do I get this error?```fix

[chrome beacon]

Is source and target set to different versions

[hybrid trellis]

No I don't think so

it appeared after I added a library

[chrome beacon]

Send your pom

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[hybrid trellis]

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

[chrome beacon]

Try removing source and target

and use release instead

[tardy delta]

btw add @Language("SQL") to such strings

[hybrid trellis]

Now I get a empty error just a build failed

[chrome beacon]

Send the entire build log

also systemPath dependencies are deprecated

You shouldn't be using them

[pale plover]

How to send mob setPose packet

[tardy delta]

playerconn.sendPacket?

[chrome beacon]

^^

connection.sendPacket pose packet

Anyways stop spamming the same question over and over again

If no one answers you improve the question with more information or open a thread

[pale plover]

Cannot resolve method 'sendPacket' in 'ServerPlayerConnection'

[hybrid trellis]

What should I use then?

[tardy delta]

throw a few getHandle s at it?

few casts

that should do the trick with nms

😉

[chrome beacon]

1. Use official repo/dependency
2. Download source and mvn install it or use jitpack to do it
3. Use install jar to add it to your local maven repo

^ in order of what's best to do

[hybrid trellis]

Is mvn a command or?

[chrome beacon]

yes

That's the maven command

mvn install

[tender shard]

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

[tender shard]

my current code:

@EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.MONITOR, ignoreCancelled = true)
fun onBlockPlace(event: BlockPlaceEvent) {
    forEach(event.player, PlaceBlock::class) { tracked ->
        if(event.itemInHand.type == tracked.quest.task.data) {
            progress(tracked)
        }
    }
}
@Suppress("UNCHECKED_CAST")
private inline fun <reified T: Task<E>, E> forEach(player: Player, taskKClass: KClass<T>, action: (TrackedQuest<E>) -> Unit) {
    questManager.getTrackedQuests(player.uniqueId).filter { it.quest.task is T }.forEach {
        action(it as TrackedQuest<E>)
    }
}

does anyone know if I can somehow change it so that I can call it just like this: ```kotlin
forEach<PlaceBlock>(event.player) { ... }

?

currently I have to pass the class as parameter and I'm not even using the parameter

[tardy delta]

if you dont have the Klass param, you have to call it as forEach<T> no?

i think to clean this up you can also do ```kt
getTracked().mapNotNull { it.quest.task as? T }.forEach(action)

[tender shard]

that's what I want but I also need the cast to TrackedQuest<E>

if I specify the generic parameter for the method in <..> I have to specify both

however E should be "detected" from T, as it's a Task<E>

[tardy delta]

ah wait you have two type params

[tender shard]

I think I could make the task class sealed

[tardy delta]

why do you even need the E?

[tender shard]

so that I got the correct type here (e.g. Material for "BreakBlock" as T, which looks like the second screenshot:

[tardy delta]

cant you just not care and specifiy the bound as Task<*>?

im loosing my mind already

[tender shard]

I could but I don't like that

[tardy delta]

idk ive done too much data oriented programming recently 😂

no generic bounds there

[hybrid trellis]

Says I don't have mvn

[tender shard]

you can run it from within intellij, or you download and install maven locally

[hybrid trellis]

It doesn't even let me extract the file from https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi

[chrome beacon]

which file did you download

[chrome beacon]

also as mfnalex said you can just open the project with Intellij and run install from there

[hybrid trellis]

I get the same response inside intelliij atleast if I use the terminal

[tender shard]

are you on windows? then use the zip: https://dlcdn.apache.org/maven/maven-3/3.9.9/binaries/apache-maven-3.9.9-bin.zip
otherwise the tar.gz: https://dlcdn.apache.org/maven/maven-3/3.9.9/binaries/apache-maven-3.9.9-bin.tar.gz

[chrome beacon]

Open the maven tab on the right

[tender shard]

alternatively, as said, use IntelliJ, but use the "run maven goal" button

[chrome beacon]

and find install

[tender shard]

not the terminal

do you have the dependency as project, or do you only got the .jar file?

[chrome beacon]

The project is on github

[hybrid trellis]

Jar file

[chrome beacon]

https://github.com/Dev7ex/MultiWorld

[tender shard]

clone the repository with intellij, then open it, double click on maven -> install, done

[hybrid trellis]

I have never used intellij so I got no idea how to clone a repo

[tender shard]

File -> New Project -> From Version Control

then enter the github URL as olivo sent it

[hybrid trellis]

Okay there, and does Install just say Install?

Or anything else

[chrome beacon]

yeah just install

double click it

to run

[brazen badge]

A simple question. If I code a plugin in 1.18.2 and I set in config a 1.21 material for an ItemStack, I'll get an error?

[eternal night]

Yes

The server doesn't know that data version

[hybrid trellis]

None say specifically install on the maven tab

[chrome beacon]

Should be under lifecycle

[hybrid trellis]

Huh 😭

[brazen badge]

So I have to create a custom Material class?

[tender shard]

wtf is wrong with my IJ today

why is that one line orange

[shadow night]

because yes.

[hybrid trellis]

[tender shard]

does that project have subprojects?

[hybrid trellis]

API and the base plugin

[tender shard]

you have to run it on the root pom

[shadow night]

Holy fuck that's quite a few subprojects

[tardy delta]

quite common for multi version modules

[shadow night]

Never wrote those

[tardy delta]

ig they only contain at most two files

[hybrid trellis]

Yeah but I can't find those that say root

[tender shard]

haha no

[tardy delta]

speaks about kotlin being less bloat

uses java

how ironic

[shadow night]

It's probably from before his kotlin times

[tardy delta]

people are scared of the kt stdlib being that big

[tender shard]

i'm only scared of not having access to kt stdlib

[shadow night]

Yeah 2mb women are indeed quite big

[tardy delta]

i mean in 2024, what is 2mb

[shadow night]

A whole 2000 kb

[tardy delta]

im wondering how its even that big, how big is javas stdlib?

[shadow night]

You don't shade javas stdlib tho

That's what makes the difference

But it's huge

[tardy delta]

uh ye

[brazen badge]

because I'll get an error. How can I ensure compatibility of all versions?

from 1.18.2 to 1.21.1

[chrome beacon]

Only set items that exist on the server version you're running

[eternal night]

You develop against 1.18.2 API and pray it works

Otherwise I guess look at something like XMaterials

[chrome beacon]

XSeries in general is pretty good for crossversion support

[brazen badge]

the plugin is in 1.18.2 not the server

[chrome beacon]

Then it's fine

You won't have any errors

[brazen badge]

oh ok, thx

[nova quail]

Hello! Can someone please help? I made a pickaxe with a custom enchantment that breaks 2x3 blocks when mining. I've made it so that when a player mines with this pickaxe, the blocks break naturally. However, when I do this, the pickaxe becomes unbreakable because the plugin destroys the blocks. How can I make it so that the blocks are destroyed using the player's pickaxe, so the durability also decreases?
My code: https://paste.md-5.net/ibelamoneq.java

[eternal oxide]

do the breaks 1 tick later.

that will allow the event to finish and apply damage to the tool

[nova quail]

yeah

thanks

Now all works correctly

How can i create custom enchants in 1.21?

[slender elbow]

data packs

[topaz kestrel]

any ideas on how to create a map reset system without copying the world

[late sonnet]

why not the copy method?

[topaz kestrel]

i dont want to store the whole world data

i just want to restore blocks

[late sonnet]

i mean if the reset is for a map created you can just save what need (chunks and not data) and use that... or copy the world and "clear" that useless data?

[topaz kestrel]

how so?

[maiden thicket]

hey, i wanted to ask if any of you guys were able to create like a dark screen effect for players for a horror game using resource packs or anything, and if so how? i've attempted shaders which work but for clients using sodium and i assume optifine as well it won't work, and the darkness effect won't do it because it pulses in and out, and the blindness radius is just too tiny

[gentle inlet]

Anyone know a way I could send data from my plgin e.g a current cooldown of ability to a mod (So i can show it on a hud)

[topaz kestrel]

and btw what if i wanted to have multiple arenas in one world?

[clear plaza]

Does anyone know how I can create an explosive crossbow ?

[nova quail]

Hello! I have made a pickaxe that mines in a 3x3x2 area, but now I need to create a pickaxe that will mine in a 3x3x1 area, so it will only mine one block forward and three blocks around it. I don't understand this math. Can someone please help?
Here is my code: https://paste.md-5.net/ifidokuzid.java

[worthy yarrow]

You should probably study some more math

[nova quail]

Yeah that's probably

I have problems with math

[clear plaza]

XD

[nova quail]

Can someone help please

I am a little bit stupid

[brittle geyser]

Disable world saving, kick all players from the world, restore world from disk

[clear plaza]

chatGPT can help you

[worthy yarrow]

To be fair yes it can, I wouldn't rely on it obviously, but it has gotten a lot better at math so I've heard

[hybrid trellis]

None has that

how does it look then?

I plan on making a 1.7/1.8 pvp server but my question is should i use the 1.20 verison of spigot and only allow connections on 1.7/1.8 or develop using the 1.8 version of spigot?

[worthy yarrow]

Stay updated, there are really easy ways to emulate 1.8 pvp in 1.20.x ie weapon attributes iirc

?1.8

[undone axle]

https://howoldisminecraft188.today/

[prime epoch]

bloody hell 9 years

im acc old

[prime epoch]

couldn't i just not allow any 1.20 stuff but use that version of spigot for development or is that not a smart thing to do?

[worthy yarrow]

I mean you just get so much more stuff whether it be QOL or whatever, staying up to date would really help the development imo

[eternal oxide]

why would you build against 1.20 if your actual target is 1.8?

[worthy yarrow]

1.8 pvp

[eternal oxide]

still no reason to build against 1.20

[prime epoch]

updated versions of spigot have alot more features no?

[blazing ocean]

yes

[worthy yarrow]

A lot more

[prime epoch]

and less support from other plugins for 1.8 / legacy verisons

[eternal oxide]

yes but he is building for 1.8

[worthy yarrow]

If you're just looking for the pvp aspect of 1.8 I mean

It's easy to do now

[blazing ocean]

https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/oldcombatmechanics-disable-1-9-hit-cooldown.19510/

[tender shard]

MultiWorld -> Lifecycle -> Install

[worthy yarrow]

And if that's your only reason to be using 1.8 then just stay updated

[hybrid trellis]

https://imgur.com/OYh588F

[tender shard]

you also need to run mvn install on "facilis-common-core", whatever that is

alternatively, run the command from my blog post through IJ

just open any maven project in IJ, then click "Execute Maven Goal" , then enter the mvn install:install-file ... command

[hybrid trellis]

Errors reading the pom

[tender shard]

show a screenshot

[hybrid trellis]

https://imgur.com/57PSNbs

So confusing

[tender shard]

well then delete the pom.xml or rename it

mvn install:install-file doesnt need a pom but if there is one, it shouldn't be a broken one

[hybrid trellis]

Weird error

[fallow crag]

where can I promote my Spigot project?

💀

[tender shard]

SkullMeta

[worthy yarrow]

It's almost as if we were in the spigot discord

[tender shard]

ah yes, that's exactly what I wanted as tab completion

[worthy yarrow]

How did the jdocs get in there kek

[tender shard]

I accidentally did this:

acf.commandCompletions.registerAsyncCompletion("quest_ids") {
    questManager.getQuests().map { Quest<*>::databaseId.toString() }
}

instea of this:

acf.commandCompletions.registerAsyncCompletion("quest_ids") {
    questManager.getQuests().map { it.databaseId.toString() }
}

[worthy yarrow]

Wait the (Kotlin..) bit is apart of the id?

I mean I get the issue here for the databaseId descriptor but uh how did the kotlin comment get in there too?

[tender shard]

idk, but I'll find out now

[blazing ocean]

bro accidentally used {

[tender shard]

nah it has to be in { }

because I need to call toString on it

[blazing ocean]

just add another map

[tender shard]

that'd ofc work too

[tender shard]

that's coming from KProperty's toString

[worthy yarrow]

Wait so then wheres the kotlin comment held?

[jovial grove]

Which plugin's event will be executed first, the one that loaded earlier or later?

If they have the same priority

[eternal oxide]

in load order, if all other things are equal

[jovial grove]

So the one that loaded later?

[eternal oxide]

no

the one which loaded first fires first, IF all other things are equal

[jovial grove]

Thanks

[eternal night]

not that that is behaviour that should be relied on

[jovial grove]

What other things besides priority might there be?

[eternal oxide]

when the listeners are registered

[jovial grove]

I have two plugins. Both track a specific event, and both with the same priority

[jovial grove]

When loading the plugin, no?

[eternal oxide]

do you nee4d one to go first?

[jovial grove]

Yes

[slender elbow]

that's what priorities are for

[eternal oxide]

then don;t listen on the same priority

only priority can guarantee order

[jovial grove]

Got you

[jovial grove]

Don't really want to edit someone else's code

[tender shard]

never trust a HandlerList you haven't replaced with 7 proxy classes yourself

[hybrid trellis]

Even if I use the template multiworld gives me

It says it's wrong

[tender shard]

finally my listener looks good

[eternal oxide]

I did a similar one for block protection

Mine was superior though as it was Java 😉

[tardy delta]

.forEach(progress) cmon

[blazing ocean]

you mean ::progress?

[tardy delta]

dunno how its scoped

whats the @Inject doing

[slender elbow]

injecting :5head:

[tender shard]

telling guice to throw random instances at the constructor

and then you get instances through the injector

this.questManager = injector.getInstance(QuestManager::class.java)

[tardy delta]

youre not instantiating manually?

lol

[river oracle]

bro hasn't seen late stage DI

kekw

[tender shard]

I think the only instance I create manually is my database provider because it requires a logger as constructor param

[tardy delta]

weird

[tender shard]

thanks copilot

that's exactly what I want

[river oracle]

I hate copilot

idk how people use it lol

[tender shard]

it kinda became worse over time

[eternal oxide]

or, you got better but it stayed the same

[river oracle]

probably worse over time

AI is getting dumber

well somewhat dumber

I wouldn't be surprised if the training set is so poluted its damaging the actual output at this point

[tardy delta]

well people write code with ai, and its feeding on it

||and then you have rad who writes awful rust code||

[tardy delta]

im mainly doing systems programming lol

dont think c cares about dependency injection frameworks

so neither do i in kotlin

[gleaming grove]

DI container it's just more efficient when you project is growing and you want to keep DI principals

  public void withDIContaner() {
        var container = Dependance.newContainer()
                .registerSingleton(A.class)
                .registerSingleton(B.class)
                .registerSingleton(C.class)
                .registerSingleton(D.class)
                .build();


        //Creating instance
        A instance = container.find(A.class);
    }

    public void withoutContainer() {

        //Creating instance
        D d = new D();
        C c = new C(d);
        B b = new B(c);
        A instance = new A(b);
    }

[tardy delta]

now you have no clue about the data streams between components

[gleaming grove]

well, it's not canceling the data streams architecture

[grim ice]

is EntityDamageByEntity safe for all usages?

meaning, does this trigger for every entity getting damaged by another entity?

including bows and such

[river oracle]

it should work for every case of an entity damaging an entity
