[glossy laurel]

ive been there

[hybrid turret]

wsl?

[frail pilot]

Linux on windows

Basically

[hybrid turret]

oh

vm

[spare hazel]

windows subsystem for linux 🤓

[glossy laurel]

?ecosia

[undone axle]

Ecosia your question before asking it:
https://www.ecosia.org/

[glossy laurel]

uh-huh

[hybrid turret]

install virtual box or sum

[frail pilot]

Dual boot

[glossy laurel]

bet you like your own medicine

[hybrid turret]

or dual boot

yeah

[hybrid turret]

i did google it. and then i stopped thinking lmao

idek why

[frail pilot]

But with secure boot and windows it became more difficult

[hybrid turret]

but generally tAsTe yoUr OwN MedIcIne won't get u far in life. just saying

[glossy laurel]

damn lol

[glossy laurel]

hm

[hybrid turret]

oh it did? i never really tried it since i got a couple of laptops just lying around with linux on it

and i got windows on my main pc

i mean there's still VirtualBox. Not the best way of doing it but it is one ig

[frail pilot]

The only "good" solution I found was to use a shim to launch Linux with secure boot without signing the whole Linux system

[hybrid turret]

hmmm i feel like just having a second mid range machine is the least stressful lmao

[frail pilot]

Which force me to use the boot selector of my bios

[hybrid turret]

oh and that displays missing stuff? that's so cool!

[pseudo hazel]

well you should be able to see what you need

but I just use it for clearing all criteria

so idk how advanced it is

but p sure you can see what progress someone has

[hybrid turret]

alright i'll fiddle around with it (the criteria)

[vast ledge]

That sounds wrong out of context

[hybrid turret]

dude

cmonnnn

don't quote me on it xd

[glossy laurel]

I was just wondering what it said before you edited it

XD

[pseudo hazel]

remember kids, dont fiddle with your criteria

[hybrid turret]

monkaW

[spare hazel]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/configuration/file/FileConfigurationOptions.html#copyDefaults(boolean)

any idea on what this does? im trying to save anything that is not in the current config but is in the default config

[young knoll]

Defaults are magical values that get used if the value isn’t set in the file

[quaint mantle]

i want to serialize items to a blob column in an sqlite database but persistantdatacontainers dont implement configurationserializable or serializable. is there any other option? im really not sure how to approach this

[frail pilot]

They are already stored in the item tags

[young knoll]

BukkitObjectOutputStream

[quaint mantle]

oh seriously?

[frail pilot]

Persistent data container use nbt tags to store data

Under the "bukkit domain" to avoid conflicts

You can see it if you use a tool to see nbt files

[pseudo hazel]

yeah or when you serialize an item to yaml file it will also show the added pdc stuff

[quaint mantle]

dang interesting

i guess i was just trying to navigate the bukkit classes to find wherei t does that and i got confused haha

whats the difference between the serializable interface and the configruationserializable?

[hybrid turret]

if i wanna get an advancement using Bukkit#getAdvancement, I have to use this, right?

Bukkit.getAdvancement(new NamespacedKey(NamespacedKey.MINECRAFT, <advancement key here>));

bc i get the @Internal warning (and it annoys me)

[tardy delta]

NamespacedKey.minecraft btw

[glossy laurel]

guys, how usually do you press ctrl + s?

[hybrid turret]

yeah?

[tardy delta]

i press :w

[hybrid turret]

with... my.. fingers? with IJ you don't have to tbh

[glossy laurel]

what is :w

[hybrid turret]

VIM SPOTTED

vim

[glossy laurel]

right

[hybrid turret]

:w = write

[candid galleon]

:wqa

[glossy laurel]

wait are you telling me intellij instantly saves

[hybrid turret]

was gonna say

drop the !

[lost matrix]

So often that i accidentally get a pop-up asking me if i really want to save this website to disk when browsing the internet.

[hybrid turret]

pretty much

the moment you tab out

[tardy delta]

another one: ggVG"+y

[glossy laurel]

happens

[frail pilot]

I type :w

[hybrid turret]

i FEEL that

[hybrid turret]

what about that?

[glossy laurel]

tbh yes, realtable af

[tardy delta]

ah yes ctrl+s in discord opens the stickers tab

[candid galleon]

what is “+

[hybrid turret]

oh wait

[tardy delta]

register +, system clipboard

[candid galleon]

i have yet to learn registers tbh

[tardy delta]

theres probably a shorter way

[hybrid turret]

oh i get it. lower case minecraft generates a new namespaced key

thanks i was blind

mb

[tardy delta]

looks like you can simply do :%y+

ive always been using the long way

[hybrid turret]

When is an AdvancementDisplay set? I don't quite get that. When the UI is open?

[hybrid turret]

or switch file

[pseudo hazel]

probably

[hybrid turret]

hmmm is there another way to get the advancement name then for prettier display?

[pseudo hazel]

like when the player opens the menu maybe

[hybrid turret]

except for an ugly ass switch-case 💀

[pseudo hazel]

translatable component

[hybrid turret]

whaa?

[pseudo hazel]

put the key of the advancement in a translatable component, it will show the name to the client

(in any language)

[hybrid turret]

yooooo whaaaaat?

that's crazy

[glossy laurel]

oh yeah, that might be a thing

[pseudo hazel]

works for anything that mojang has translations for

you just need the key in the right format

[hybrid turret]

wait what key exactly

the key of the namespaced key?

[pseudo hazel]

well yeah, the ns key for the advancement in this case

[hybrid turret]

thanks spigot resource

good hyperlink

so sum like this nether/distract_piglin

asking this much bc in the resource they're using the classic property/yaml . seperator

[pseudo hazel]

https://github.com/Steaf23/BingoReloaded/blob/main/PlayerDisplay%2Fsrc%2Fmain%2Fjava%2Fio%2Fgithub%2Fsteaf23%2Fplayerdisplay%2Futil%2FComponentUtils.java This is what I use, its for paper adventure, but its like a 1 to 1 translation (no pun intended) for bungee chat components

[hybrid turret]

oh i'll take a look

is the Component the BaseComponent in spigot? :thonk:

i want nitro ffs

hmm not really, idk can't make this spigotty, imma skim through the docs a bit

[glossy laurel]

what would happen if I would try to set soemones health to a negative number

[hybrid turret]

my guess would be death

[pseudo hazel]

Component is from adventure, but it would be TranslatableComponent in your case

[hybrid turret]

and then it being set to 0

bc i feel like this happens naturally very often.
what if you hit someone with a sword when they're on 0.5 hp

oh also

?tas

[undone axle]

https://tryitands.ee/

[hybrid turret]

OHHHH

[pseudo hazel]

if you switch to an older branch of this code you might be able to find the spigot version of it

i only recently converted it to adventure

[glossy laurel]

too lazy

fr

[quaint mantle]

can you use an ObjectOutputStream or do you need to use a BukkitObjectOutputStream for bukkit objects? also, if i made a class that contained bukkit objects (like locations and itemstacks), how would i serialize it using an output stream - which method?
sorry really overthinking this

[glossy laurel]

back in the good days people wrote out the domain themselves

[hybrid turret]

"back in the good days" how old r u again?

[frail pilot]

You probably need to go for BukkitObjectOutputStream as bukkit classes does not implement Serializable (iirc, might be wrong)

So you might want to implement BukkitObjectOutputStream in your data class

[hybrid turret]

what about StatisticsKeyConverter what is that? also paper specific?

[pseudo hazel]

no thats my beautiful class

https://github.com/Steaf23/BingoReloaded/blob/main/PlayerDisplay/src/main/java/io/github/steaf23/playerdisplay/util/StatisticsKeyConverter.java

[hybrid turret]

ahaaa

i see

oh oh

oh god

[blazing ocean]

why a diff register

you can just :%y

to copy to system clip

[pseudo hazel]

because someone messed up with naming them normally

[blazing ocean]

assuming it's configured properly

[pseudo hazel]

so a switch is required to get all statistics working

[hybrid turret]

damn wtf

if you don't mind, i might just yoink that

[pseudo hazel]

sure

[hybrid turret]

ty :)

[pseudo hazel]

i dont think mojang will add any new statistics soon anyways

[hybrid turret]

true

[blazing ocean]

man i have to compile spark for every platform rn

this is annoying

[pseudo hazel]

skill issue

[blazing ocean]

how else will i shade spark into my mod

and mixin to it

[quaint mantle]

oh okay. wait implement bukkitobjectoutputstream or configurationserializable

[tardy delta]

you use system clipboard by default

[pseudo hazel]

why shade spark

[tardy delta]

i dont

[blazing ocean]

why

[blazing ocean]

to mixin to it

[pseudo hazel]

yikes

mix me with that shit

[hybrid turret]

since BukkitObjectOutputStream is a class you cant "implement" it, but only implement it into your code what you "implement" is implements ConfigurationSerializable if i had to guess

disclaimer: did not read context

[pseudo hazel]

thats half true

implementing configurationserializable means you need to serialize it to some map of string string and object

[hybrid turret]

yeah

oh

yteah

i mean

[pseudo hazel]

idk where the bukkitoutputstream comes in

[blazing ocean]

wait

[hybrid turret]

yeah was not well said

mb

[blazing ocean]

i'm just gonna shade the spark jar

ezpz

wait can i just modImplementation(fileTree("libs/spark.jar"))

[young knoll]

BukkitObjectOutputStream is for serializing Bukkit objects to byte arrays

[frail pilot]

ConfigurationSerializable

Mb

[blazing ocean]

yesss i can

[quaint mantle]

but what if i have a custom object ive made for storing a combination of bukkit data and primitives?

[pseudo hazel]

where is that used?

last time I checked I cant create a config with byte arrays

[blazing ocean]

hehehehehehe

[hybrid turret]

Is there also a way to have the criteria names displayed pretty or do i have to do that manually?

[tardy delta]

wtf

[pseudo hazel]

no clue

i dont think so

[tardy delta]

no kotlin?

[blazing ocean]

mixins

[tardy delta]

hmm?

[pseudo hazel]

but I guess it depends on the criteria itself

[young knoll]

Database

[hybrid turret]

I mean I suppose since they're never displayed ingame, there won't be translations

[tardy delta]

.dat file 🗿

just throw everything in a byte array and call it a day

[pseudo hazel]

oh so its something people use to save their data to databse? that makes sense

right

[tardy delta]

then cry cuz the reader is broken when it finds an eof in the middle of your file

[quaint mantle]

@young knoll ?

[hybrid turret]

yeah, ig something like biomes might be able to be translated?

[pseudo hazel]

thats what im planning to do for most of my data stuff anyways xD

[hybrid turret]

well, i'll just display the keys, that's fine

[young knoll]

Then you’d have to handle serializing it yourself

[quaint mantle]

alrighty

[pseudo hazel]

biomes dont have a translation I think

but items and stuff do

[blazing ocean]

this is gonna be really fun

[pseudo hazel]

fabric is cursed

[tardy delta]

id just modify the minecraft source myself at this point 🗿

[blazing ocean]

whaaaa

is it because i'm shading the spark jar

and using that for mixing

[lost matrix]

limpeex using bot commands again. Unforgivable.

[kindred valley]

Why dont you do same to other when they do that? I checked it and last message sent 10 mins ago so i thought there is no convo going here and wanted to use the command?

[grim hound]

How can I stop the sound of a player's fall?

stopSound doesn't really work

Best it does is cutting into the middle of the sound playing

[echo basalt]

client-sided sound though

also world events are a thing

[grim hound]

Which ones?

Packet or bukkit ones?

[echo basalt]

something about entity landing

[grim hound]

Wait, so the fact that the player fell is sent in a Sound packet?

But I block those I think, and the sound's still there

[echo basalt]

world events usually spawn both particles and sounds or whatever

[grim hound]

My current solution is spoofing a ghost cobweb

[pseudo hazel]

you use the command like every day xD

[grim hound]

However I want to remove it asai

[pseudo hazel]

ghobweb

[kindred valley]

I dont spam

[pseudo hazel]

i never said you did?

[grim hound]

And when I remove it after he lands (since the land is caused by a teleport) the client usually lags and still displays the sound

So I'd need to delay it by some fixed amount, like of 1 second, which is never a good idea

Maybe I should like wait for like 5 move packets from the player?

After teleport confirm

Also, does the server use TeleportConfirm for anything?

[pseudo hazel]

maybe for bed spawns or smth

idk

[grim hound]

Like the server teleports a player and the player sends a TeleportConfirm

But what for? Does the server use it?

[grim hound]

Pretty sure a Respawn or a Spawn packet is used for that

[hybrid turret]

tbf why not just save the URLs as favourites in a folder in ur browser? is handier anyway

dont need to go on discord then

[pseudo hazel]

end portal teleport after credits?

im just spitting ideas

[hybrid turret]

yeah there are definitely different ways of the packet used for different cases. credits, death and world switch i think?

See also: data kept https://wiki.vg/Protocol#Respawn

[hybrid turret]

i suppose the client sends the location back with the teleport confirm so that the server knows that it got executed properly.
My guess would be if the data doesn't match, it will undo the TP or something

granted, i've never had that happen, but my guess would be a... data consistency feature, if you will?

then again, this is completly out of the blue. just guessing

[grim hound]

Mmm makes sense

[pseudo hazel]

yeah thats the most likely

but probably just either not implemented/needed anymore or never properly used in the first place

[grim hound]

Can the ping on layer 4 and layer 7 of the same connection vary a lot?

[hybrid turret]

Does adding a chunk ticket using World#addPluginChunkTicket only make the chunk not unload or does it also automatically load the chunk?

[smoky anchor]

Adds a plugin ticket for the specified chunk, loading the chunk if it is not already loaded.

You can usually just read the documentation.

[hybrid turret]

BRUH

i read the documentation to find out about this in the first place, how tf did i miss that???

[smoky anchor]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[hybrid turret]

istg i thought it wasnt there 😭

what am i doing bruh

sorry, thanks tho

[smoky anchor]

np

[wet breach]

it wouldn't be accurate to compare in that way

layer 7, the application layer is where the packet is processed. Yes there could be delay from when layer 4 gets the packet, and layer 7 actually processes the data in said packet

[twin venture]

hi iam trying to use mongodb :
mongodb.net but when i connect it tells me No such host is known

[hybrid turret]

what are you inputting to connect and do you have the server running?

[worn valve]

can I use mods at the same time as plugins?

[eternal oxide]

Not on Spigot but there are forks which handle mods and plugins

[sacred ice]

hi, is this name still valid for black stained pane in newer versions : BLACK_STAINED_GLASS_PANE

[worn valve]

okey

[ebon hawk]

How to make the plugin file update automatically after updating the plugin jar file

[frail pilot]

You mean config files ?

[ebon hawk]

yes

[steady turtle]

is it possible to create your own custom mobs in 1.20?

[hybrid turret]

if you mean the material constant, yes

idk where you're going with this question tho 😅

[sacred ice]

ok ty

[hybrid turret]

delete it, lol

or tell the user to add the lines you added manually

[azure zealot]

yes

[ebon hawk]

But I need it to update automatically like other plugins

[steady turtle]

Are there any resources you would recommend I check out?

[azure zealot]

yes

give me a second

[hybrid turret]

Well I suppose you could check for entries, and if they don't exist you get all content from the file, append the new content and save it again

[azure zealot]

MythicMobs and ModelEngine combined

Official MythicCraft Compatible Plugins:
ModelEngine - Combine with our powerful ModelEngine plugin to give your mobs fully custom models that shouldn't exist outside of mods

https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/⚔-mythicmobs-free-version-►the-1-custom-mob-creator◄.5702/

[hybrid turret]

e.g. compare the resource version of your config.yml to the version in the <plugin name>/config.yml path

compare keys, if there are missing keys in the latter, you add those entries

[steady turtle]

thnks

[frail pilot]

Or you can go with Configuration#addDefault iirc

[hybrid turret]

fair enough idk about all that lol

[grim hound]

can I decrease the view distance to certain players or generally in certain worlds?

[slender elbow]

not on spigot

[hybrid turret]

can't write descriptions to the entries then tho :/

[brazen badge]

I'm coding a Region Manager, for you is useful to save also the world in the config
as well as the coordinates?

[hybrid turret]

you mean in the default config config.yml?

absolutely not. do not do that

[brazen badge]

I create another file called regions.yml

[hybrid turret]

That's better.

Though: YAML is not really made for data storage. It's a markup language designed to store configuration entries.

You can do it like that but if you want to go with files i recommend either JSON or SQLite

[eternal oxide]

json is no different than yaml for storage

both are just flat file and should only be used to store data which rarely changes

[hybrid turret]

isn't json still better than yaml tho?
i'm pretty sure this has also been stated multiple times.

[brazen badge]

I want that editable in a file, so SQLite isn't a choice

[eternal oxide]

no

[ivory sleet]

Good thing YAML is a superset of JSON

[hybrid turret]

An well if they don't want to learn SQL then they have to go with one of the two

[grim hound]

what about forks then?

[ivory sleet]

so if you want you can parse valid json to be valid yaml

[hybrid turret]

watch this then

grrr

[slender elbow]

🤓 ?whereami

[brazen badge]

Going back to the question, do you think it is useful to save the world or not?

[hybrid turret]

well

if you don't store the world name

you have to get it in a different way

otherwise you can't construct a Location object

so either with something like Player#getWorld or by a string/id

[eternal oxide]

Thats just a personal opinion. His statement is somewhat correct in that json has nice object serialization, however spigot has ConfigurationSerializable to Yaml which is the same thing

[hybrid turret]

i mean yeah

spigot makes yaml easier, that's true

[brazen badge]

I'll get region only in listeners, so I can get the world in the listener

[grim hound]

oh, is it possible on paper?

[brazen badge]

personally, I find yaml easier to understand than JSON

[hybrid turret]

I guess yeah, as long as it doesn't matter if the location is loaded for a different world

[slender elbow]

but you need a way to distinguish to which world a region belongs to

in storage

[hybrid turret]

tbh long story short: i would always store the world name as well.

[slender elbow]

unless any given x/y/z applies to all worlds

[hybrid turret]

which would only makes sense if you want to mirror worlds or something

(at least that's the only real use case i can think of)

[slender elbow]

perchance

[hybrid turret]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FU7vA8rVkLA

xD

[eternal oxide]

Storing a World/Location in a config is a bit iffy, as the whole config is parsed and objects deserializes the moment you first touch it. If you do so before worlds are loaded your config will break

[hybrid turret]

so store the world name, problem solved

[eternal oxide]

yep

[hybrid turret]

or id i guess

[eternal oxide]

or even yoru own object which holds a vector, two doubles and the world name

[hybrid turret]

custom location moment

[eternal oxide]

yep

[hybrid turret]

floats tho

for pitch and yaw

[eternal oxide]

yep too

[grim hound]

which one of the two?

[slender elbow]

both!

[hybrid turret]

I think what she wants to say is: we don't really know bc we're on the spigot server and not papermc

[slender elbow]

but paper questions belong in the paper discord 😌

[grim hound]

I am banned there

[eternal oxide]

Stop using paper then

[slender elbow]

that's unfortunate

this discord remains as the spigot discord

the place for spigot questions

[glossy laurel]

how do I set the name that shows above player's head

[grim hound]

okay

[eternal oxide]

Not so simple. requires profiles and packets

[glossy laurel]

shhhhh...

ffs

😭

[eternal oxide]

well you could probably avoid packets using hide Player these days

[glossy laurel]

hide Player?

wdym?

[eternal oxide]

a simpler method is to create a TextDisplay and mount it as a passenger on the player

[glossy laurel]

wb protocolLib

is that the plugin that allows me to do it

[grim hound]

use PacketEvents instead

[glossy laurel]

what's that

...

is it nms?

[dark moth]

@grim hound i asked someone who does modding and asked if i can interact a plugin by a mod

he said no.

if this doesnt work

ima be mad bro

ima airstrike your home

[pseudo hazel]

packetevents is protocollib but better

[shadow night]

I agree

[grim hound]

I've never done any client-side modding

but custom payload is a packet literally designed for mod - non modded server integration

[pseudo hazel]

I think thats what simple voice chat uses

there is a server plugin but its a client mod

[dark moth]

OOOOOOO

[pseudo hazel]

so the person you talked to was either lying or didnt know

[glossy laurel]

and whats packetevents?

another plugin?

[pseudo hazel]

well yeah

its a plugin with an api

[glossy laurel]

alr

[pseudo hazel]

its like the same idea as protocollib

but better

[glossy laurel]

gotcha

[pseudo hazel]

better wrappers etc

i mean its subjective

[pure dagger]

@Override
    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command command, String s, String[] args) {
        Player player1 = (Player) sender;
        Player player2 = Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().iterator().next();
        Vector vector = player2.getLocation().toVector().subtract(player1.getLocation().toVector())
                    .normalize()
                    .multiply(1.5)
                    .setY(0.5);
        player2.setVelocity(vector);
        return true;
    }```

its exacly this code that gives me
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: x not finite

[pseudo hazel]

but its just better xD

[glossy laurel]

but why tf does it have a plugin

cant there just be a pom dependency

[paper viper]

1. you can't cast directly to Player like htat
2. its because you are using the location of player1

[eternal oxide]

I can;t see that code giving that error, it would require a divide by zero or somethign similar to cause x toi be infinite

[slender elbow]

that'll blow up like that if both player objects are the same player

[pseudo hazel]

yeah its a dependency

[glossy laurel]

oh it is a dependency?

[eternal oxide]

No, if its teh same player the vector will just be zero

[pseudo hazel]

but its to prevent 20 plugins to have 20 versions of packetevents in a single server

[glossy laurel]

-_-

but can I use it just as the dependency?

or nah

[pseudo hazel]

its like that with most libraries that arent inventory libs or whatever

not really

[paper viper]

i remember running into a similar problem while trying to launch people

[slender elbow]

and normalize will divide by 0 which results in NaN which will blow up

[pseudo hazel]

you use it like a hard depend

and the owner adds packet events to their server as a plugin

[eternal oxide]

yep

thats where its getting NaN

[glossy laurel]

what is hard depend

cant run without it?

[paper viper]

Yes

[glossy laurel]

and soft depend is can run but without some features?

[paper viper]

Yes

[azure zealot]

how are you in the cute club

[glossy laurel]

and then its very hard to setup because you need to tell it not to parse something if you dont have the dependency?

[azure zealot]

i didnt know that there are like clans on discord

[pseudo hazel]

yeah

[azure zealot]

that grants you a badge like that

[slender elbow]

i am cute

[pseudo hazel]

your plugin will fail to load if the server doesnt have the dependency

[glossy laurel]

lovely

[pseudo hazel]

thats why you specify it in your plugin.yml

[azure zealot]

same, but i dont have it right next to my name.. sadly...

[blazing ocean]

[azure zealot]

rad

go away

[blazing ocean]

nah i'm good

[azure zealot]

lynx

[glossy laurel]

wait what

[slender elbow]

lynx i will delete your minecraft base

[azure zealot]

why is this discord so much trolling

[glossy laurel]

how tf do you do that

[eternal night]

nah I'm good

[pseudo hazel]

what what

[glossy laurel]

how do you specify it in your plugin.yml

[pseudo hazel]

dependencies: [packetevents] from the top of my head

[blazing ocean]

poor guy

[eternal night]

Imma put your bed next to the villager farm

[blazing ocean]

not the dirt hut!

[pseudo hazel]

that will also make sure that packetevents has been loaded before your plugin

[paper viper]

invite me plws 🥺

Jk lol

[glossy laurel]

damn, crazy

what?

[eternal night]

update intellij

[glossy laurel]

appearantly it's "INCREASE_DAMAGE"??

wtf?

[eternal night]

oh

are you in old versions

[glossy laurel]

i mean

don

't think so?

[eternal night]

1.21 should have the correct name

[glossy laurel]

is that old?

[eternal night]

Well it was released nearly 9 months ago

[glossy laurel]

damn, alright

updated to 1.20.6, nice

[eternal night]

(just go 1.21.1)

[glossy laurel]

good thing this error got thrown, I forgot I was making a plugin for a 1.20.6 server

💀

[grim hound]

why can't it be 1?

[glossy laurel]

cuz you would see nothing

imo

[slender elbow]

that's just a minecraft limitation

[pure dagger]

oh... im sooo sooo dumb lol

[glossy laurel]

Guys

was there a cancellable event on connect that would get called before on join or am I tripping?

[slender elbow]

AsyncPlayerPreLogin or PlayerLogin

those come before PlayerJoin

[glossy laurel]

thx 🙏

[glossy laurel]

is it cancellable?

[slender elbow]

both are, yes

those are the events you should use to disallow a player from joining the server

[glossy laurel]

how do I check that on docs?

[slender elbow]

how do you check what?

[glossy laurel]

the fact that theyre cancelable

I cant see it anywhere

[dawn flower]

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

java.lang.ClassCastException: class net.minecraft.network.syncher.DataWatcher$Item cannot be cast to class net.minecraft.network.syncher.DataWatcher$b (net.minecraft.network.syncher.DataWatcher$Item and net.minecraft.network.syncher.DataWatcher$b are in unnamed module of loader java.net.URLClassLoader @17d10166)```

[slender elbow]

they don't implement Cancellable per se, but they have disallow/allow and get/setResult methods

[glossy laurel]

gotcha

[pure dagger]

how to check if player shoot an arrow with specific bow? if it would be a crossbow or a snowball you can check with ProjectileLaunchEvent and check if either player's main hand is the special snowball or the offhand is, while main hand is not (becaause if the offhand is the special snowball and mainhand is some normal snowball, then player shoots the normal one), but with the bow... its possible that the player has special bow in for example main hand, and shoots an arrow from a bow in offhand (i hope you get what i mean)

[worthy yarrow]

How does “cancelling” the event work? Does it just halt prior to handshake in the protocol or something similar?

[dawn flower]

it just doesn't handle the packet

[worthy yarrow]

Easy enough kek

[slender elbow]

well, both events are post auth which is way past handshake

[worthy yarrow]

Oh

[slender elbow]

disallowing in APPLE will send a login disconnect packet, disallowing in PLE will send a regular disconnect packet

and return from the rest of the "let player in" logic ofc

[worthy yarrow]

A login disconnect packet kek

Kinda funny

[slender elbow]

hm?

[dawn flower]

.

[worthy yarrow]

I just find this to be a goofy packet but it makes sense lol

[slender elbow]

🤔

if anything goes wrong during the login phase, the server will send that

it's a separate packet from the common disconnect packet because it's a different phase

oh, the normal login event uses that as well, duh, it's right after login but not quite yet in config phase

[worthy yarrow]

I mean I was just laughing at the naming, “login disconnect” just sounds funny to me

[dawn flower]

how do i make a player glow for one player only? (in protocoollib)

[paper viper]

You need to send a metadata packet and add the glow mask

[dawn flower]

I know, but how

[paper viper]

here's how you would do it using NMS https://github.com/PulseBeat02/MurderRun/blob/7550f6cc6c818369159e8fc0490cb6a4db50e7a1/v1_21_1/src/main/java/io/github/pulsebeat02/murderrun/reflect/v1_21_1/PacketTools.java#L95 but i'm sure you can do it similarily in plib

you basically take the first byte (the data value with id 0)

[rotund ravine]

Damn u got hta weird discord "cute" thing too https://i.imgur.com/7J3rQzC.png

[paper viper]

and then either append or get rid of 0x40

depending on if you want the glow or not

[cedar saffron]

[Cute] 💀 cringe!!

[paper viper]

Wait

but actually are you making just Player glow and not other entities?

because i just found a spigot api method added in 1.20.4 which only applies to LivingEntity so including Player

in my case i wanted items to also glow but you can use the spigot method if you want just one player to glow

[dawn flower]

Yeah

[paper viper]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#sendPotionEffectChange(org.bukkit.entity.LivingEntity,org.bukkit.potion.PotionEffect)

this method

you dont have to use nms

or plib

[dawn flower]

Amazing stuff

[paper viper]

added in 1.20.4

i think

[dawn flower]

Ok

[slender elbow]

goofy ahh anime pfp

i would never

[cedar saffron]

One piece is the best!

[dawn flower]

Does Player#isGlowing return true if the player has the glow potion effect

[cedar saffron]

You WILL NOT DISS ODA

[eternal night]

[paper viper]

thats the only think im not sure of

you might need to store the data somewhere

like a multimap of watchers or smthing

[pure dagger]

anyone know... ;c?

[eternal oxide]

if you need the bow later just set its data in the projectiles PDC in the launch event

[dawn flower]

PotionEffect glowing = new PotionEffect(
  PotionEffectType.GLOWING,
  1,
  0,
  true,
  false
);
nearby.forEach(p -> player.sendPotionEffectChange(p, glowing));

this doesn't work

[pure dagger]

yeah but.. i said that the problem is with detecting if player used the bow

thats what i do, add pdc key, and when it hits a player it checks for the key

[eternal oxide]

so what is the issue? In teh launch event the player will have the bow in their hand

[pure dagger]

but which one

he can shoot from main or offhand

[eternal oxide]

which? They will only have one bow in their hand

[pure dagger]

umm there are 2 hands

as i said, its possible that player shoots an arrow with mainhand bow or offhand bow while having 2 bows in 2 hands

you understand?

[eternal oxide]

only one hand shoots

[dawn flower]

?

[pure dagger]

😭... im asking how to check if player actually used special bow or some normal bow

[pure dagger]

one at a time, but it does not change anything

[eternal oxide]

Pretty sure only the main hand shoots

[pure dagger]

bruuuh look

[dawn flower]

?

[eternal oxide]

Then use the EntityShootBowEvent

[hybrid spoke]

?notworking

[undone axle]

"Does not working" is a useless statement. Please describe what exactly is not working, what you expect it to do, and what actually happens. If you get any console errors, also ?paste the entire stacktrace.

[dawn flower]

It just doesn't work

It does nothing

No errors

[eternal oxide]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/entity/EntityShootBowEvent.html

[paper viper]

uh you have the duration set to 1 tick

is that intentional

[dawn flower]

Yeah

[paper viper]

but it just wont like

show up

[dawn flower]

I changed it to 100 to test, still doesn't work

[hybrid spoke]

show the full code

we need context

[paper viper]

but 1 tick basically means the glow wont show

[dawn flower]

.

[paper viper]

can you show full code

[dawn flower]

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

[hybrid spoke]

what does runLoop do

[dawn flower]

Runs the code x amount of times with a delay

[pure dagger]

oh... so i could use ProjectileLaunchEvent for snowballs, crossbows, but for bow use EntityShootBowEvent

but why did they make separate event for that?

i mean yeah its usefull

[hybrid spoke]

async?

[dawn flower]

Sync

[paper viper]

hm

the javadoc says

Note: Sending an effect change to a player for themselves may cause unexpected behavior on the client. Effects sent this way will also not be removed when their timer reaches 0, they can be removed with sendPotionEffectChangeRemove(LivingEntity, PotionEffectType)

are you sending the effect to itself

does your own getNearbyEntities method get the player itself

[dawn flower]

No

[glossy laurel]

"Man, I wonder why my files aren't saving!"

[hybrid spoke]

ai moment

[glossy laurel]

not ai

[paper viper]

could you try printing out the entities and see if they exist

[glossy laurel]

my brain

[dawn flower]

I did

[glossy laurel]

is just cooked

[dawn flower]

They exist

[hybrid spoke]

does your nearbyPlayers list have any entries?

[dawn flower]

Yeah

I printed them

[hybrid spoke]

provide full info and context, i dont want to have to ask you everything

[dawn flower]

I tried just doing Entity#addPotionEffect, and it worked, but using sendPotionEffectChange doesn't work

[paper viper]

not entirely sure then, have you tried just doing it outside of any of your code

and just itself

[hybrid spoke]

do you have to necessarily use sendPotionEffectChange? addPotionEffect and setGlowing sounds like a good alternative

[paper viper]

he wants it to send it to specific recievers

not all players

setGlowing would make it glow for everyone

[hybrid spoke]

ah gotcha

[dawn flower]

    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        PotionEffect glowing = new PotionEffect(
                PotionEffectType.GLOWING,
                100,
                1,
                true,
                false
        );
          Bukkit.getPlayer("MissingReports").sendPotionEffectChange(Bukkit.getPlayer("MrBot"), glowing);
}```
Still doesn't work

[eternal oxide]

um

[paper viper]

well that wouldnt work anyways cause you guys arent on the server

when the plugin enables on server load

unless you use plugman or smthing

[dawn flower]

^

[paper viper]

o

[paper viper]

im not really sure then

maybe it doesnt work

when i look into the nms it uses ClientboundUpdateMobEffectPacket

which is different from the ClientboundSetEntityDataPacket packet which would be used to make players glow usually

so maybe thats the reason why the glow effect isn't working?

Choco do you know why maybe

what if you tried using a different potion effect like regeneration

and allow particle effects

do you see the particles?

[eternal oxide]

are you using optifine?

[dawn flower]

Yeah

no

[eternal oxide]

optifine and soime shaders break glow effects

[dawn flower]

Sodium

Normal glow works tho

[eternal oxide]

k

[paper viper]

it's prolly cause its not the metadata packet

i think you might have to use nms or plib

for ex, the setGlowing method uses the metadata packet flags to mark the player as glowing

[blazing ocean]

i mean that still causes the client to render the outline

[paper viper]

Yeah, I'm not sure tbh

[dawn flower]

    public void setGlowing(Entity entity, boolean glowing) {
        ProtocolManager protocolManager = ProtocolLibrary.getProtocolManager();
        Player player = getPlayer();
        if (player == null) return;

        PacketContainer packet = protocolManager.createPacket(PacketType.Play.Server.ENTITY_METADATA);
        packet.getIntegers().write(0, entity.getEntityId());
        
        byte bitmask = (byte) (glowing ? 0x40 : 0x0);

        List<WrappedDataValue> dataValues = new ArrayList<>();
        dataValues.add(new WrappedDataValue(0, WrappedDataWatcher.Registry.get(Byte.class), bitmask));

        packet.getDataValueCollectionModifier().write(0, dataValues);
        protocolManager.sendServerPacket(player, packet);
    }```
I got it to work with this, but now it overrides all other metadata

For example if the entity was on fire, it overrides that

[paper viper]

That's because you directly set it to only 0x40 or 0

you need to append it

[dawn flower]

Yeah i know

[paper viper]

for ex |= 0x40

to add

[dawn flower]

How do i get the current metadata

[paper viper]

Not sure in plib but in nms you'd get SynchedEntityData from the nms entity

[halcyon hemlock]

how to change this

[blazing ocean]

https://wiki.vg/Protocol_FAQ#What.27s_the_normal_login_sequence_for_a_client.3F 13.

[pseudo hazel]

epic null server

why change perfection

[blazing ocean]

should change it to None fr

[halcyon hemlock]

can u make it animated

[blazing ocean]

it gets sent during handshake so prob not

[halcyon hemlock]

send a billion server brand packets frfr

i know what im about to do

[dawn flower]

How do i get the current metadata in ProtocolLib?

[eternal oxide]

PLib is not for fetching in memory data

[halcyon hemlock]

my bad i mistakenly opened lunar client

[blazing ocean]

why do you need the actual metadata object

[dawn flower]

.

[blazing ocean]

i mean just sending a packet like that shouldn't override i believe

Updates one or more metadata properties for an existing entity. Any properties not included in the Metadata field are left unchanged.

[eternal oxide]

it will because its a Bit mask

[paper viper]

^

you have to use | 0x40 or & ~0x40 to add or remove existing masks

[blazing ocean]

oh right

[dawn flower]

        byte bitmask = 0;
        bitmask |= (byte) (entity.getFireTicks() == 0 ? 0x01 : 0x0);
        bitmask |= (byte) (entity.isSneaking() ? 0x02 : 0x0);
        bitmask |= (byte) (entity.isSprinting() ? 0x08 : 0x0);
        bitmask |= (byte) (entity.isSwimming() ? 0x10 : 0x0);
        bitmask |= (byte) (entity.isInvisible() ? 0x20 : 0x0);
        bitmask |= (byte) (glowing || entity.isGlowing() ? 0x40 : 0x0);
        bitmask |= (byte) (entity.isGliding() ? 0x80 : 0x0);```?

[paper viper]

i wouldnt rlly recommend doing that, but if it works, then sure

[blazing ocean]

yea i mean

there's more than just those

https://wiki.vg/Entity_metadata

nms.Entity#getEntityData ig

ig this is what you're looking for?

[dawn flower]

I don't want to use NMS

[glossy laurel]

what happens when I use YamlConfiguration conf = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(file); on a file that is empty? Does it create an empty configuration file?

[dawn flower]

It creates an empty YamlConfiguration

[paper viper]

you can't get it otherwise

maybe an api idk

[dawn flower]

So doing this is the best way?

[paper viper]

yea

[glossy laurel]

            File file = new File(filePath);
            file.getParentFile().mkdirs();
            if(!file.exists()){
                file.createNewFile();
            }
            YamlConfiguration conf = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(file);
            OfflinePlayer p = sorcerer.getPlayer();
            UUID uuid = null;
            if(p != null){
                uuid = p.getUniqueId();
            }
            conf.set("map." + sorcerer.getName(), uuid);
            conf.save(filePath);
        }catch (Exception e){
            throw new RuntimeException(e);``` it's weird cuz I have this code

[paper viper]

but if mc updates or smthing its prolly gonna break

[dawn flower]

Dear lord

[glossy laurel]

but for whatever it doesn't wanna save the configuration

[glossy laurel]

don't bully 🙈

[dawn flower]

I won't

[glossy laurel]

ight nice

[dawn flower]

But please use saveResource

[glossy laurel]

what's that

[dawn flower]

Do you know the resources folder in your project?

[glossy laurel]

uhm

idk

[dawn flower]

Where plugin.yml is

[glossy laurel]

nah

wait lemme see

[dawn flower]

This folder

[glossy laurel]

right, found it

wb it

can I save stuff there?

[dawn flower]

Yeah, then you can do saveResource("myFile.yml", false)

False means it won't replace it if it already exists

[glossy laurel]

hm?

lemme check out docs

[dawn flower]

Ok

[glossy laurel]

what???

what does it do, im so lost

also, use that why

[dawn flower]

It's easier

It saves the file in your resources into the data folder

Which is plugins/pluginName/..

[glossy laurel]

So I create all my files in my resource folder?

[dawn flower]

How many files do you have

[glossy laurel]

solid 1

in this plugin

[dawn flower]

Then yeah

[glossy laurel]

okay

and how do I do that?

[halcyon hemlock]

also in play apparently

different packet

[glossy laurel]

and why do I do that

I already have my system set up

[pure dagger]

actually.. after thinking.. it also wont work... i dont know if i said that but i also need to detect if player threw a snowball, or an egg, or a crossbow, so... i dont know how to check if player did not use a bow... in the ProjectileLaunchEvent 🤦‍♂️

[glossy laurel]

and its almost working XD

[halcyon hemlock]

there, better

[eternal oxide]

If the projectile does not already have bow data in its PDC then it was thrown.

[pure dagger]

what? bow data? what is bow data

[eternal oxide]

the bow data you apply in the shoot bow event

[blazing ocean]

yes

[pure dagger]

but shoot bow event and projectile launch event... is it called in the same time or like what

[zealous osprey]

XD

[halcyon hemlock]

dancing crab

[blazing ocean]

wait wait wait wait wait

YOU COULD MAKE A FUCKING CUTSCENE WITH THAT

[glossy laurel]

why tf are there crabs walking in your f3?

[glossy laurel]

WAIT

[blazing ocean]

show your code pls

i wonder how it works in spigot

@halcyon hemlock!!!

[halcyon hemlock]

One sec I'll send the code

[blazing ocean]

.expect("tf") relatable

[halcyon hemlock]

For testing purposes frfr

[zealous osprey]

that's what they all say

[glossy laurel]

            file.getParentFile().mkdirs();
            if(!file.exists()){
                file.createNewFile();
            }
            YamlConfiguration conf = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(file);
            OfflinePlayer p = sorcerer.getPlayer();
            UUID uuid = null;
            if(p != null){
                uuid = p.getUniqueId();
            }
            conf.set("map." + sorcerer.getName(), uuid);
            conf.save(file);```
So everything works just fine but when I save it into the config file it gets this:
```map:
  'null': !!java.util.UUID '9d14ab37-0c6b-4967-ac56-51586d60473d'```
and I do not understand why whatsover. Anyone wanna help?

[halcyon hemlock]

https://github.com/Sweattypalms/ferrumc/blob/dev/src%2Fnet%2Fsystems%2Ftick_system.rs

Here

[halcyon hemlock]

The getname is returning null then innit

Maybe name isn't cached

[smoky anchor]

Everything might work but what is..
what
this is pointless, just do UUID uuid = p.getUniqueId();
and your getName is returning null.
Also, maybe you might want to do uuid.toString to not save the java class

[glossy laurel]

npe, no?

[smoky anchor]

ignore that, I read it wrong completely actually

How to show player specific Scoreboard Objective board? I created scoreboard with many objectives and set display slot to SIDEBAR. I need to display objective named "test" from scoreboard to player. I see only one method player.setScoreboard(Scoreboard); but it's not objective.

[pseudo hazel]

a player is assigned a scoreboard to see

if the objective is on display sidebar it will be shown to all players who have that scoreboard set

[proud obsidian]

So I should create scoreboards instead of objectives to display different variations of sidebar boards for every player?

[pseudo hazel]

if every player has a sidebar with different content, all players need their own scoreboard yes

[wintry dagger]

protocollib or custom packet handler to make a simple 1.21 anticheat?

which is more convenient / benefits

[novel kite]

ProtocolLib or PacketEvents is probably the better decision to make tbh

[pseudo hazel]

custom packet handler is always gonna be less convienent

the only benefit is independence

which hardly matters

since its pretty easy to make changes if the protocol changes

[novel kite]

ProtocolLib:

• Lots of existing documentation
• Only parse what you need
• Most servers already have it installed
• Huge community
  PacketEvents:
• Packets are parsed for you
• Discord server available
• Requires explicit version support for the mc version
• Light documentation and community
  Custom Packet Handler:
• You're on your own, enjoy your independence.

(I'm not sure if an official discord exists for protocollib)

[slender elbow]

(it doesn't)

[halcyon hemlock]

(write your own server from scratch)

[wintry dagger]

so protocollib

are there any good anticheats on the market rn

[slender elbow]

yeah there's like three or so big ones

[glossy laurel]

Guys

Does Spigot happen to have some code that prevents YamlConfiguration from saving the values for a key if the vlaue is null?

[eternal oxide]

if the value for a key is null it will be removed

dont you mean the value being null?

what key would you remove if it is null?

yes to your question

[echo surge]

alr ty

[glossy laurel]

World.spawn() a consumer of what class do I need to pass? I cannot figure it out whatsoever

                    @Override
                    public void accept(Entity object) {

                    }
                });``` that's what I have so far

what do I replace the consumer with?

alr, I figured it out :D

[halcyon hemlock]

Use lambda ffs

[glossy laurel]

yeah I did

[halcyon hemlock]

Good

[ornate mantle]

can i make BlockDisplay entities with a custom player skull?

[young knoll]

No

But you can make item display entities with a custom player skull

[slender elbow]

block displays bad?

[young knoll]

Yes

[ornate mantle]

why

[slender elbow]

idk coll said so

[young knoll]

According to the ears anyway

[slender elbow]

the ears don't lie

I, however, might

[young knoll]

What about the hips

[glossy laurel]

how do I get the closest entity to X, that meets a certain criteria I get by passing it into a function?

am I being confusing

[young knoll]

You could get nearby entities and then further filter it

[glossy laurel]

get entities in distance X?

wait that actually makes sense, I wouldn't even need entities that are further than X

lmfao

thx

[glossy laurel]

in EntityTargetEvent, after cancelling it, how do I check if the target entities target is null (if it had a target before)

[buoyant viper]

meow‼️

[glossy laurel]

data packs, trust

(very spigot)

[young knoll]

There’s an event

LootGenerateEvent iirc

[slender elbow]

no way!

[glossy laurel]

Bump 👀

Btw, when setting someones target you can make anyone attack anyone right?

[young knoll]

Yes

Well, not players or entities that don’t attack

Players have free will and entities that never attack don’t have the goals or attributes to do so

[glossy laurel]

Fair enough

So like the description of the "setCancelled" says that if I setTarget to null it looses its target but if it cancel the event it regains the previous target

So how do I check if the precious target was null

Does noone actually know 😭

Also, I just realised my code didnt retarget anyone cuz I cancelled the event bruh

[young knoll]

It’s current target should be the previous target

[slender elbow]

The sentence has a slight grammatical issue. The word "current" should be preceded by a possessive pronoun, so the correct version would be:

"It’s its current target should be the previous target."

• "It’s" is a contraction of "it is" or "it has," which is incorrect in this context.
• "Its" is the correct possessive form, indicating that something belongs to "it."

Ay dios mio!

[eternal oxide]

Emily wants a cookie

[lone oracle]

I've taken somebody's advice to make a Scheduler class where all runTaskLaters are handled. But my only issue is that I don't know how to add a runTaskLater to a List.
Right now I have:
ArrayList<BukkitTask> tasks = new ArrayList<BukkitTask>();
but idk how to add something like Java Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskLater(Main.getPlugin(), new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { //anything } }, 1800);
Any1 able to help me?

[young knoll]

https://tenor.com/view/bane-no-banned-and-you-are-explode-gif-16047504

[paper viper]

you can't really add the task to the list inside the task, take the BukkitTask you get from running that and add that to the List

[glossy laurel]

So the getTarget() just changes when you cancel the event??

[young knoll]

getTarget should stay the same if you cancel the event

[glossy laurel]

Right

[glossy laurel]

So wdym by that

[young knoll]

To check if the previous target is null you should just be able to do event#getEntity#getTarget

[glossy laurel]

I can getTarget on getEntity

No method

I couldn't find any methods for finding the target outside the target event

[young knoll]

You may need to check and cast to LivingEntity or something

[clear elm]

Are there some tutorials or something like that how to use gradle?

[glossy laurel]

Hm

[young knoll]

Ah its Mob

Mob#getTarget

[glossy laurel]

Gotcha

And it's guaranteed that the entity in the event is a mob right?

[young knoll]

Not sure

[glossy laurel]

Alr

And one more, if I don't cancel the event, mob#getTarget would still be the previous target right?

[young knoll]

During the event yes

Right after the event it will be the new target

[glossy laurel]

Ight

Anyone happens to know if World#getNearbyEntities returns the entities in ascending order?

[drowsy helm]

Ascending order of what?

Id?

[glossy laurel]

Distance

[drowsy helm]

I beleive so

[pseudo hazel]

spent a few hours on my brand new never before seen super easy serialization

only to find out its actually just NBT like almost exactly 💀

[paper viper]

Wait @young knoll is the code you used to serve resourcepacks without a server port public?

Making a plugin using a pack and I don’t wanna write a whole http server implementation for it

[pseudo hazel]

I just put the pack on my github 😂

[wet breach]

you don't need an entire http implementation

[eternal oxide]

Yes he is serving it over the game servers connection (I believe)

[paper viper]

I generate the resourcepack at runtime

[pseudo hazel]

oof

nvm then

start writing mr http

youll be done before sunrise, I trust you

[wet breach]

well apache already has libs that has like the majority of the stuff done

[paper viper]

Actually I already had a sever using a lib which did it for me

[orchid gazelle]

sever

[paper viper]

But I was interested in how he managed to do it without needing to port forward

Like an actual port

[wet breach]

port 80 is generally not blocked

[pseudo hazel]

imagine working on a server that has http blocked

can only be nasa

[wet breach]

that is the default port for http related things. Unless you specifically use something else like curl etc, java defaults to using port 80 for url connections

[orchid gazelle]

Not only java

80 is generally default for http

And 443 for https

[paper viper]

Do you think it won’t be used?

[wet breach]

yes, but depending on the language, url connections are not inherently port specific

[paper viper]

If I host like a mini daemon using it

[wet breach]

it is just that Java implemented 80 as the default if none is specified

[young knoll]

Not yet

[young knoll]

It’s using the server port

Which should already be forwarded cuz yknow, kinda need that to make the server work

[paper viper]

Ohhhh i see

[pseudo hazel]

big brain

[blazing ocean]

how

[edgy crystal]

            if (state instanceof Banner) {
                BlockData data = block.getLocation().getBlock().getBlockData();
                ((Banner) data).setBaseColor(faction.getBannerColor());
                ((Banner) state).setPatterns(faction.getBannerPattern());
                state.update();
            }```

why doesnt this change the basecolor ?

[eternal oxide]

you never use teh data

[young knoll]

Injecting into netty pipeline

[blazing ocean]

what a nerd

[edgy crystal]

mb, data doesnt work because it can not be casted.

                ((Banner) state).setBaseColor(faction.getBannerColor());
                ((Banner) state).setPatterns(faction.getBannerPattern());
                state.update();
            }```

this also doesnt work

[eternal oxide]

that looks fine

[edgy crystal]

yeah but it doesnt change the baseColor

[lone oracle]

u able to show me how to do that? I have no clue tbh :/

[eternal oxide]

are you sure you are passing a valid color?

[edgy crystal]

yes

"BLUE"

it reads the props of a banner and sets them to others

[eternal oxide]

as in DyeColor.BLUE ?

[edgy crystal]

so it must be valid

[edgy crystal]

yes

[eternal oxide]

looks like it should work to me

[young knoll]

Any errors?

[edgy crystal]

no

it jsut doesnt change

version is 1.16.5

[young knoll]

Sets the base color for this banner. Only valid for shield pseudo banners, otherwise base depends on block type

[edgy crystal]

ah thats shit

[young knoll]

You need to change the block itself

[edgy crystal]

cause there are 2 types of banner

[paper viper]

So I'm guessing you did something like this? https://github.com/PulseBeat02/MurderRun/blob/main/src/main/java/io/github/pulsebeat02/murderrun/resourcepack/provider/netty/ResourcePackHandler.java

made your own ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter and then inject into all the connections of MinecraftServer
