[onyx fjord]

python isnt some special language

[lost matrix]

The common approach would be to write it in python and then throw an endpoint on it for communication.
But TensorFlow has a java library. Not very fletched out tho.

Maybe Keras too, let me check

[onyx fjord]

bruh ur telling me this is all the docs

the rest is javadocs

[umbral ridge]

😿

[pure dagger]

xD

[onyx fjord]

i refuse to learn python

[lost matrix]

You are kinda expected to have experience with TensorFlow and just infer the meaning of the classes i guess

[pure dagger]

umm... do you know?

[onyx fjord]

playerhelditemchangeevent or something

[lost matrix]

In that case you can simply check all players periodically and see if they have an item equipped which grants them effects.
One runnable you start when your plugin enables.

[onyx fjord]

also a way

PlayerItemHeldEvent*

[pure dagger]

no.. you can do it trhough inventory

it doesnt tetect it

probably?

or does it

i dont know ;c

[onyx fjord]

you want it to work on any slot?

like talisman

[lost matrix]

Dont bother with that. You would have to cover half a dozen events if you wanted to check via those

[pure dagger]

no, in main or offhand

[onyx fjord]

i can think of 3 only

[pure dagger]

what do you mean? you mean the same thing i said a moment before?

[onyx fjord]

join, helditem, hand swap perhaps

[lost matrix]

Let me just throw out a few i can think of rn

[pure dagger]

for example death, inventory click

[lost matrix]

PlayerDeathEvent, PlayerRespawnEvent, PlayerJoinEvent, PlayerItemHeldEvent, PlayerSwapHandsEvent, PlayerDropItemEvent, PlayerInteractEvent, PlayerPickupItemEvent

Those are just a few that can result in your hand items being changed (And there are more)

[eternal oxide]

What kind of effect? If it is a boost to attribute or somethign you can do that on the item itself. If its visual follow7smiles advice

[pure dagger]

player item held event doesnt detect when you for example change item in inventory riht?

[pure dagger]

naah effect

literally effect

and also ill need thee same thing but for helmet on head

[pure dagger]

yeah... i dont know now why i didnt do that

instead i did something more complicated

actually to acheive a little bit "better" result

can i run this once every tick?

or is it too often

[lost matrix]

public class PlayerItemEffectRunnable implements Runnable {

  @Override
  public void run() {
    Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().forEach(this::checkPlayer);
  }

  private void checkPlayer(Player player) {
    EntityEquipment equipment = player.getEquipment();
    for (EquipmentSlot equipmentSlot : EquipmentSlot.values()) {
      ItemStack item = equipment.getItem(equipmentSlot);
      checkPlayerItemEffects(player, item);
    }
  }

  private void checkPlayerItemEffects(Player player, ItemStack itemStack) {
    if (itemStack == null) {
      return;
    }
    // Check for item effects
    
  }

}

This should be alright to run for a few dozen players each tick.

This covers armor slots, main and offhand

[pure dagger]

yeah, it wont be probably a lot players...

umm why not inventory?

equipmentslot

[pseudo hazel]

doesnt really matter

but equipment api makes it clear you are dealing with the equipment slots

instead of like slot 36 or whatever

[polar girder]

Hey, can i get some help with creating my first plugin in Eclipse?
I might be dumb, but i tried to follow every guide on the BuildTools and Development sites, still no success.

[lost matrix]

Which part troubles you?

[polar girder]

One sec I need to verify for sending pictures

So i cannot really use the new spigot shaded jar file, it might be that i miss some java installs or something?

I followed this guide on how to actually start it: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/creating-a-blank-spigot-plugin-in-eclipse/?noRedirect=1

[eternal oxide]

Thats quite an old tutorial

Today its better to use maven as a build system

[lost matrix]

There is sadly no Eclipse / Maven tutorial...

[eternal oxide]

https://bukkit.fandom.com/wiki/Plugin_Tutorial_(Eclipse)

[polar girder]

Yeah, i'm not very familier with Eclipse, Maven or Java 😅 So i tried what i've seen

[eternal oxide]

The one I linked is quite good. It has pretty pictures (just update the java/spigot version numbers) 😉

just scroll down to "Starting a Plugin Project"

[lost matrix]

If you ran BuildTools, you can go into the folder

...\BuildTools\Spigot\Spigot-API\target

And copy the spigot-api-1.**.*-R0.1-SNAPSHOT-shaded.jar into your project as library.

Use that instead for manual API loading.

Instead of whatever you got in your project right now

[polar girder]

I'll check this out soon, thank you

[polar girder]

But what do you mean copy as library? I'm sorry i didn't really use Eclipse before

[lost matrix]

No idea, do whatever you did with the jar you have right now in there.

Remove the old jar and replace it with the new one.

Should be this step

[eternal oxide]

if you really don;t want to use maven, download the api jar from the maven site and add to Eclipse

?maven

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/spigot-maven/

[lost matrix]

I mean he already built it... 🙂

[eternal oxide]

I guess

[polar girder]

I had the built shaded.jar added as a library, and it didn't work 😅

But i'll try maven then, thank you!

[lost matrix]

Yeah maven is the way to go

[polar girder]

Okay, thanks a lot!

[pure dagger]

you mean like instead of slots mainhand, offhand, helmet etc?

[pure dagger]

should do that for every item - 1 runnable or multiple runnables for each? i guess it doesnt really matter but maybe it does

[lost matrix]

One runnable for all players and all items. No need to have more than a single runnable for this.

[pseudo hazel]

you always wanna minimize the amount of runnables you have

all items you wanna update at the same time anyways

so multiple runnables would be terrible

[lost matrix]

It wouldnt be catastrophic, but not scalable at all.
With this approach you can implement as many effects as you want via the PDC and a hashmap for lookups, and maintain O(1) complexity regardless of how many effects you implement down the line.

[pure dagger]

yeah, thanks, i was thinking so

[echo surge]

what about PlayerItemHeldEvent?

[pure dagger]

wait a sec

umm

[pure dagger]

read this and some under this message

sorry for pinging mr smile

[echo surge]

oh

[pure dagger]

yeah... the event doesnt cover all you need

[young knoll]

It only fires when they change hotbar slot

Not if they replace the item in the current slot

[pure dagger]

yeah, so it doesnt detect the item, it detects change in selected hotbar

[silent cove]

It is my understanding that you need to compile your plugin against the oldest version of the api that you want to support, right? Assuming that is true, and my plugin deals with mobs, I kinda of need to be using the latest apis, otherwise it will encounter mobs it doesn't know how to deal with, right?

[pure dagger]

I'm literally asking this like 4th or 3rd time... sorry, but i still dont get it, and cannot find the best solution.

So... in my plugin, i need a special bow, special crossbow, special snowball, special egg, my approach is to:
PlayerShootEvent - check if its one of them, then call special method, that adds a key to the item, then in
EntityDamageByEntityEvent - i check if the projectile has the key, and if it has i do something

it doesnt all matter probably this all, but the problem is in detecting if player actually used the item, problem is OF COURSE becasue of stupid offhand, you can for example have a normal bow in 1 hand, a special bow in 2 hand and you can shoot from 1 hand or the other one, its possible to do with both if you get it, how do i detect it? if it was only crossbow, snowball and egg (only 1 click shoot items) or only bow (only hold shoot items) it would be easy, but there are both, maybe i should use PlayerShootEvent and BowEvent but.. how? will it work?

[silent cove]

so make it only work if the offhand is empty

or has a shield, w/e

[pure dagger]

usually it was like this: i ask question, someone responds, i try to explain why their approach is bad, then they tell me another, wchich is also bad, and.. i cannot get it right

[pure dagger]

no why, you could shoot it with offhand

[young knoll]

Doesn’t the bow shoot event expose the item used

add pdc tags to the special items so you can identify them

[pure dagger]

but.. then... how do i check in PlayerShootEvent if the item ISNT bow?

[pure dagger]

i already have

thats not the problem ;c

[young knoll]

?

[silent cove]

this seems very trivial, no?

[paper viper]

Why do you need to add the tag on PlayerShoot?

why cant you add it to the item first and then give it to the player

i didnt scroll up because too much

[pure dagger]

no why?

[pure dagger]

i need to add the tag to projectile entity

[silent cove]

EntityShootBowEvent literally gives you the bow in event

as well as the projectile

[paper viper]

and also for snowballs and eggs, the ItemStack PDC is still preserved within the Item entity

[pure dagger]

yeah, so?? i also need to use PlayerShoot to detect the snowbals

[paper viper]

why?

if you already set it

you dont need to

[pure dagger]

what?

[pure dagger]

do you mean that

if snowball item has key

snowball projectile will have it or what

[paper viper]

No, you can use getItemStack from the Item

and then will have the PDC still

you dont always have to mark the actual entity

[pure dagger]

what..? where in what event

i got lost i think

[paper viper]

its not an event, im saying is that

1. whenever you give the player the snowball, give them an itemstack with the PDC tag already with it
2. Snowball has getItem() method from the ThrowableProjectile class, which returns an ItemStack and you can check with PDC from there

or am i missing something

[pure dagger]

itemstack that it was before it was thrown?

[paper viper]

Yes iirc it worked for me

[pure dagger]

oh thanks, but otherwise if it was not a thing, would tou be able to give me solution?

[paper viper]

it is a thing

i just checked my code

[pure dagger]

yeah but im Just curiious

if it wasnt

[paper viper]

also the Arrow also has the ItemStack getItem

[pure dagger]

also, i could run into similar problem in future which cannot be solved with keys

[paper viper]

Wdym?

[pure dagger]

pdc

[paper viper]

whats the similar problem

this is how you're supposed to usually mark stuff

you'd mark the actual itemstack first, then you'd use getItem to check if the PDC has the key for the entity

[pure dagger]

idk, maybe that's unnecesaey

unnecesary

[paper viper]

how else are you going to do it

[pure dagger]

Oki but anyway thanks

[paper viper]

you realize you need to mark the entity somehow

[pure dagger]

entity? like its marked with itemstack pdc

[paper viper]

Yes

For stuff like Snowball, Egg, Arrow, like projectile items you can get their ItemStack

you mark it within ItemStack PDC because thats persisted when the entity is launched

another way, you could do it i guess is to just store some set of entity ids

but that's not really as convenient

[pure dagger]

is it persistent also? like if the server is shut down and again or plugin reloaded, will it still return the item staxk ?

oh

[paper viper]

i dont recommend the latter option tbh

[paper viper]

like if an egg is thrown midair and server shuts down?

wdym

[pure dagger]

yeah maybe, or an arrow in the groumd

i know thats a rare case lol but

im curious

umm i dont care then

what set.. wait

oh yeah okay

anyway, ill test it a Little bit, then implement it, thanks

[paper viper]

I recommend the PDC way either way because i think its easier to do

like passing a Set around different classes and stuff can be low key annoyin

and also entity ids ugh

Yea ig

[tardy delta]

[lost matrix]

[grave lagoon]

i love singletons

[blazing ocean]

kotlin objects: rah

[river oracle]

Singleton supremacy

[grave lagoon]

y2k_ is a singleton og

2 years of singleton loving

[river oracle]

Singleton is great for managers registries and more it's such a beautiful thing

As someone who uses registries far too often I can't imagine a world without singleton

Those DI purists are mad

[pure dagger]

arrow isnt a throwable, so do i use bowshootevent for crossbow and bow, and use shoot for snowball and egg? thatas what you ment?

[paper viper]

Arrow isnt a throwable, but you can still get the item

[paper viper]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/AbstractArrow.html#getItem()

[pure dagger]

oh i do?

ok ill read

[paper viper]

In fact, you can even get the original weapon ItemStack that shot the arrow

using getWeapon()

[pure dagger]

umm, but what getItem() does if getWeapon gives you itemstack

[paper viper]

?

one gives you the Arrow ItemStack

the other gives you the ItemStack of the bow, crossbow, or whatever item the player used to shoot it

[pure dagger]

umm okay, thats what you meant, becasue if you shoot arrow there are weapon and arrow

i forgor

am i some dumb or what? why there no method? im sorry XDD

[paper viper]

what version of minecraft are you building on

[peak moth]

Anyone have experience sending a Plugin message in onDisable? Seems the only way around it is reflection

[lost matrix]

Why would you need to use reflections for that?

[mellow edge]

using interfaces I can avoid reflection, but how can I then compile the code based on the version, because obviously if I compile the code with 1.21 spigot, I will have errors in 1.8 code class and vice versa and I cannot just exclude them from compilation list because they wouldn't be recongnized as classes.
This is the code I want to achieve:
if(version = R1_8) something = new NMS1_8CLASS();
if(version = ...) something = new NMSX_XCLASS();

I already heard for maven profiles, but am not sure whether this is the solution. any ideas?

[young knoll]

Multiple modules

[peak moth]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/pluginmessage-on-disable.69157/ seems like have to set the plugin to be enabled, send the message, then set it back to disenabled. Working on batch-processing for mysql with network synchronization and so I record changes and if one server disables, I write to database, but then I'd like to clear the logs of all the other servers to avoid writing old changes

[lost matrix]

You create modules, with each module having another nms dependency. When compiling you shade all the modules into your jar.
On runtime you detect the server version and provide the concrete implementation of that interface, depending on the detected version.

[lost matrix]

Plugin messages are quite bad when it comes to cross-server communication. They are only viable for public plugins because you cant expect the user to have proper object streaming applications like Redis, Hazelcast, Kafka, RabbitMQ etc.
I personally prefer Redis for cross-server communication and caching.

[mellow edge]

So just for clarity you mean java 9 modules? Because they aren't in java 8 (spigot 1.8) version but are in java 21 (spigot 1.21).

[young knoll]

No

Maven modules

Which are basically just subprojects

[peak moth]

yeah this is for a public plugin,

[umbral flint]

Do you guys support mutable or immutable configurations

[mellow edge]

ok so I think I need to style my project like that:

common
NMS1.8...
NMSX.X...
NMS1.21...

where each module is basically a version dependent code except common

[peak moth]

where can I check the version history for 1.14-1.21 to see if
Field field = this.getClass().getField("isEnabled"); this field has changed name at all?

[young knoll]

Yes

[lost matrix]

This field hasnt been changed since 1.8

[peak moth]

yeah just checked

[mellow edge]

also this sounds easier and more elegant than caching reflection classes/methods/fields (to not be too heavy) into arraylist and then using them later

[peak moth]

so its kind of hacky but I'm already very deep into it with this plugin message bs

[pure dagger]

1.20.1

[paper viper]

I think it’s a really new feature recently added

I’m using 1.21

[pure dagger]

aaaa 😭

then how do i do it

as i said... "maybe ill need to solve similar in the future" thats now i guess

[paper viper]

yes and the solution to that problem is to update 🙂

[pure dagger]

i cannot becasue im making plugin for not my server

[young knoll]

Or just

Manually apply pdc to the entity in the shoot event

[pure dagger]

😭

there is the entire problem

[pure dagger]

could you read that?

[young knoll]

I don’t see the issue

Event -> check if item has pdc -> set the projectile to have the same pdc

[pure dagger]

ok so how do i detect if its a snowball or a bow or what

ok how do i get pdc

[young knoll]

ItemMeta#getPersistentDataContainer?

[pure dagger]

i feel like im explaining obvious things over and over but idk, maybe im missin something

[young knoll]

Same for entity

[pure dagger]

yeah, how to get the item

how do i know? offhand or main

or maybe some other way?

[young knoll]

Check which hand contains a snowball

If they both do, main hand takes priority iirc

[pure dagger]

what if it is a bow...

lets say both hands are bow

i cannot know which one was used

left or right

[young knoll]

One will always take priority

However for a bow you can just use the EntityShootBowEvent

[pure dagger]

so for bow i use shoot event
for snowball, egg, crossbow (1 click shoot items) i use projectile launch eent?

[young knoll]

Yeah

[pure dagger]

?? you can shoot with main hand you can shoot with offhand, you cannot detect from projectile launch event if it was offhand or mainhand

[young knoll]

You can

Check both hands

If only one contains the item, that hand was used

[echo surge]

Is there any advantage with PDCs over hashmaps for that topic?

[young knoll]

Otherwise one hand will always take priority over the other

Don’t remember which

I think it’s main hand

[pseudo hazel]

main hand should always take priority

[pseudo hazel]

for what topic

pdc and hashmaps have nothing to do with eachother

[young knoll]

PDC is persistent

Maps are not

[pure dagger]

no, you can shoot from main and offhand

[pure dagger]

umm yes, why not, persistent data is persistend and easier

literally you can see here

[young knoll]

As I said

[mellow edge]

@lost matrix so if I understood you correctly I create modules, shade all of them into what final jar, and then just from the nms version detect which interface to use? so I will still have one jar no multiple to distribute

[young knoll]

Check which hand has the item

If both hands have the item

One hand will always take priority

[pure dagger]

look at the screenshot

[young knoll]

Well for a bow you have the bow event

So that doesn’t matter, you can get the item directly

[echo surge]

i mean both have keys and values. So i could use a PDC to track the ItemStack a projectile was shoot with same as i would with a map

[pure dagger]

NO i showed at ss that even if both hands are bows, you can shoot from main hand as weel as from offhand, why is it so hard to explain it to you guys, thats the entire issue here 😭

[young knoll]

.

[young knoll]

.

[eternal oxide]

because you are still not understanding us

[pure dagger]

oki but still, i want you to understand its possible

[young knoll]

For bows maybe

I don’t see how it would be possible for instant-throw items

[eternal oxide]

You CAN shoot from either hand with a bow in both, BUT the bow event will ALWAYS give you the bow that was used to shoot

[pure dagger]

i am, i literally said that while having bows in both hands you can shoot from main hand and offhand as well, what is it that i dont understan there?

[pure dagger]

yeah its not with instant throws

[young knoll]

Well there ya go, problem solved

The bow event will give you which item is used

[pure dagger]

yeah, but we were not talking about that, thats the solution but i think he didnt understand that its possible to shoot from offhand in that situation

idk i got lost

kinda

[young knoll]

And for the others you just have to determine which hand it was

[pure dagger]

but the solution i think i have it

[eternal oxide]

he understood, which is why he told you to use the bow event, just as I did yesterday

[pure dagger]

yeah maybe you did, i didnt get that probably

[eternal oxide]

or the day before, I foregt

[pure dagger]

probably

[young knoll]

Tbf I didn’t think about switching thr now in while drawing the other one

But it doesn’t matter because of the dedicated bow event

[pure dagger]

yeah okay

i wonder what would i have to do if there was no bow event

[eternal oxide]

cry

[young knoll]

Probably

Should expose the itemstack in the projectile launch event

I assume that’s possible

[pure dagger]

probably

[pure dagger]

ummmm what does it mean expose?

[eternal oxide]

it means someone create a PR to add to the API

wheres Y2K when you need work done?

[young knoll]

Hey I exist too

Sometimes

[pure dagger]

ummmmmm

bye

thanks

Nice a volunteer

[young knoll]

Oi what do you know that I don’t

[eternal night]

your statement sounds rather optimistic

[young knoll]

Sigh

What about the hand

[eternal night]

Your statement is very optimistic

[young knoll]

Oh right

Dispensers don’t have hands

Okay PR to Mojang to give dispensers hands

[eternal oxide]

shoudl only need the ItemStack not hand

as its teh ItemStack which people would want to read the PDC from

[eternal night]

At least at the current place the spawn events live (launch is just a fancy one of those) there is 0 info beyond the entity

[young knoll]

Guh

I blame Dinnerbone

[eternal night]

So yea, not to that event at least.

|| Can just use paper API, that had API for this for the past 6 years now ||

i used to be able to use player.setResourcePack(URL_TO_ZIP_FILE) but im trying on 1.21 and it doesn't get applied. The UI/UX is still normal, the prompt is shown and the screen goes red and "reloads" -- but the pack is never installed. Has there been a change?

[chrome beacon]

Check the client log

[silent cove]

I dont see anything alarming .. there is a line that says found non-pack entry .DS_Store, ignoring.. but i assume that's because mac adds that file to all archives.. that's not going to prevent it from running though, would it?

[chrome beacon]

hm odd

[silent cove]

oh nvm i do see something. thanks for the tip

[dapper flower]

Is it possible to force the player into a swimming animation?

even when technically not possible due to no block being on top of them

[chrome beacon]

You can use an invisible shulker above the player

[young knoll]

Fake blocks work too

[chrome beacon]

Sadly the head might be visible without a resource pack

Fake blocks are also an option but it might cause issues when crawling in tall grass for example

[karmic phoenix]

Hey everyone, I need a little help with fixing the following issue:
The leap system is allowing players to leap more than once without landing.
Right now it's basically allowing them to fly.

How it should work:
Players can leap whenever they want but they must touch the ground at least land once before using the leap again.

What leap does:
It launches the player after they interact with the leap item(feather).

Code:
https://paste.md-5.net/benixixele.java

[drowsy helm]

your hasLanded boolean cant be global like that

that means all players share the same hasLanded variable

[karmic phoenix]

Oh, thanks.

But I've tested it by myself.

[drowsy helm]

have you verified the onPlayerLand listener is properly detecting the player being grounded?

[karmic phoenix]

Should I make a map instead?

[drowsy helm]

yes

[karmic phoenix]

There is this weird issue with it, when on falling it detects that they have landed.

But then cancels it.

Like just for a sec it says that I have landed then it says that I haven't.

If I hold down right click then I'm able to continuously leap, which makes me fly around.

[karmic phoenix]

That doesn't happen anymore, now it allows you to use it 3/2 times then prevents you from using it until you land.

[drowsy helm]

just sounds like you have to get it to detect the player being grounded properly

[karmic phoenix]

I added a slight cooldown.

Now that no longer happens.

I'll test it for a bit to see if it has any other issues.

[drowsy helm]

sort of a hacky solution

try jump off a really high ledge and spam it

you will eventually be able to do it again

[karmic phoenix]

Oh ye I see, but it only allows you to do it twice.

Which probably means that it checks that you have landed before it launches you.

Since you're already on the ground.

Ye that's why, when I jump off the ledge(Being already on the air) then use it, it doesn't happen.

[valid basin]

Does someone know how I can use this to add some sort of anti piracy system from spigot?

This is not allowed

[valid basin]

Wdym it's not allowed? It's built in to spigotmc?

using their API to check

[lost matrix]

Your plugin has to work completely without an internet connection

[hybrid turret]

i want to blatantly persist chunks for a small server in a YAML file.

the structure will look like this:

chunks:
  worldUUIDgoesHere:
    - 1,2
    - 618,111
    - 0,19
  worldUUIDgoesHere:
    - 1,2
    - 618,111
    - 0,19
  worldUUIDgoesHere:
    - 1,2
    - 618,111
    - 0,19
  worldUUIDgoesHere:
    - 1,2
    - 618,111
    - 0,19

I want to load them into a Map<UUID, List<String>>. Strings from the StringList are later handled with split yada yada.

Anyway: How do I load everything from the chunks path and convert it to a map? (Map<String, List<String>> would be enough, I can do the rest. Only the step from config to map, bc I can't just YamlConfiguration#get and cast it afterwards :( )

Is this correct use of "blatantly"? Whatever, ykwim

[echo basalt]

Not a fan of this system as .yml files are completely unscalable

You can make your own region files that match minecraft's

Where you group chunks into 16x16 groups

[lost matrix]

    FileConfiguration configuration = ...;
    ConfigurationSection worldSection = configuration.getConfigurationSection("chunks");

    if(ImIllusion.isNagging() || worldSection == null) {
      throw new NerdInterruptingException();
    }

    Map<String, List<String>> chunkMap = new HashMap<>();
    Set<String> worldIds = worldSection.getKeys(false);
    for (String worldId : worldIds) {
      List<String> chunkList = worldSection.getStringList(worldId);
      chunkMap.put(worldId, chunkList);
    }

    // Do something with the chunkMap

[echo basalt]

erm actually the section can be null 🤓

[lost matrix]

fixed

[echo basalt]

erm ImIllusion isn't a class in your project 🤓

Do you even specify that your method can throw an exception

[lost matrix]

I swear, 24w36a is an actual banger update. This is gonna be sick.

[echo basalt]

oo

finally we can have background items that have no lore

can I deal damage offhand with sword using spigotapi?

[lost matrix]

Yeah like that. You could create an actual card game now

[lost matrix]

What does that even mean?

[quaint mantle]

wanna make dualwielding

[chrome beacon]

yes that's been done before

[quaint mantle]

is there a method that allows me to use the offhand?

[chrome beacon]

https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/dualwield.82349/

[chrome beacon]

Basically you listen for right clicks and then trigger the arm animation with a packet

[quaint mantle]

is that a api ?

[chrome beacon]

1st one yes

[quaint mantle]

why have a maven?

work for 1.21?

i tried this plugin

not worked for me

[echo basalt]

brother you can't say you're a spigot plugin dev on your bio and ask why have a maven? 😭

[brittle geyser]

This is amazing!

Im so glad that im in a greenfield project in a week. Ill 100% utilize this background texturing for item rarity.

[hybrid turret]

my brain is not braining at my own shit again.

DELETE FROM Banlist
WHERE player_uuid = ?
AND (SELECT banTime FROM Banlist WHERE player_uuid = ?) != 1
AND (SELECT banTime FROM Banlist WHERE player_uuid = ?) < ?;

This is my SQL statement to remove a ban from the DB if it is expired. 1 is set for the banTime field if the ban is PERMANENT otherwise System.currentTimeMillis() is set.

arg1 is the bannedPlayerUUID, arg2 is the bannedPlayerUUID arg3 is the bannedPlayerUUID and arg4 is System.currentTimeMillis()

This should work right?? (please dont ?tas me, i beg u)

nvm i realized i could just emulate it in the database instead of actually trying it using players and commands. it seems to work

[umbral flint]

I'm pretty sure this is a horrible way of doing it

[hybrid turret]

oh is it?

before i changed it to this, I had 2 seperate calls to the database. one for fetching the banTime and one for the delete update. I then checked the logic in the java code instead of the request

[umbral flint]

DELETE FROM Banlist
WHERE player_uuid = ?
AND banTime != 1
AND banTime < ?;

I'm pretty sure this works

[hybrid turret]

i mean

wait

i'm

oh can't say thje r word

[umbral flint]

The spacing might be off because I'm on my phone

[hybrid turret]

oops

wait why tf did i use sub-selects?????

what am i doing?!

[umbral flint]

Make sure what I sent works first

[hybrid turret]

yeah will do

[umbral flint]

Also, did you mean for ban time to be -1 if it's permanent?

[pseudo hazel]

you can already do this?

with hide tooltip on item meta

[umbral flint]

@hybrid turret Also check your naming, I see snake case for player_uuid, but camel case for banTime

[hybrid turret]

nah i just set 1 bc it doesn't matter. could also be 69 or something since the time now can't be that low anymore

i used anything and didnt wanna bother if negative numbers could do funky stuff

seems to work btw

[hybrid turret]

oh yeah i recently realized that too. my naming is super inconsistent rn

[umbral flint]

Is the banTime in units of milliseconds?

[hybrid turret]

but that's a semi-big refactor so eh

[hybrid turret]

yes

it's System#currentTimeMillis

[umbral flint]

In my plugin I'm using seconds

[hybrid turret]

i mean

didnt wanna bother to /1000 that every time

It does get converted at one point to minutes and the rest is cut off bc the time is suppsed to only be accurate to the minute iirc

i may have changed that tho

that plugin has gone through a LOT since i started lmao

[umbral flint]

How long have you been working on it

[hybrid turret]

idk tbh lotta years

i sadly can't check bc i only started using git like 1.5 years ago 💀

and i had like a 1-2 years break of coding bc i was too stupid

[umbral flint]

Damn and you've only just started the database?

[hybrid turret]

nah

[umbral flint]

Oh

[hybrid turret]

i just had a brain fart

no idea why i subselected while only being in one table

that was stupid and embarrassing

when i became a trainee for development i started working on it again

and since then its come a loooooooong way

(i also hated SQL until i had to learn it anyway for my job training)

then i realized it's easy and implemented it in my plugin

[umbral flint]

        PlayerMutePunishment mute = savedMute.get();
        handle.createUpdate(
                    """
                    INSERT INTO player_mute_punishment (
                        id,  target,  issuer,  reason,  time_occurred,  pardoned,  pardoner,  pardon_reason,  duration
                    )
                    VALUES (
                        :id, :target, :issuer, :reason, :time_occurred, :pardoned, :pardoner, :pardon_reason, :duration
                    );
                    """
                )
                .bind("id", savedMute.getId())
                .bind("target", mute.getTarget())
                .bind("issuer", mute.getIssuer())
                .bind("reason", mute.getReason())
                .bind("time_occurred", mute.getTimeOccurred())
                .bind("pardoned", mute.isPardoned())
                .bind("pardoner", mute.getPardoner())
                .bind("pardon_reason", mute.getPardonReason())
                .bind("duration", mute.getDuration().toSeconds())
                .execute();
    }

I wanted to learn some APIs when making this plugin

[hybrid turret]

what

colons??

[umbral flint]

Does it look good

It's Jdbi API

[hybrid turret]

what lang is that

[umbral flint]

https://jdbi.org/

[hybrid turret]

tbh as of rn i'm using plain sqlite and later will by using another (non-file) language

[umbral flint]

Yes that's fine

[hybrid turret]

so i have no idea about sql apis

[umbral flint]

Are you converting your UUID to strings

[hybrid turret]

yea

do you just store a pardoned entry instead of deleting the entry?

[umbral flint]

In PostgreSql they have support for UUID

[hybrid turret]

won't that cluster up the disk space?

[umbral flint]

Hm

[hybrid turret]

PostgreSQL is a server language like MySQL i suppose?

[umbral flint]

Kind of

[chrome beacon]

PostgreSQL 👑

[blazing ocean]

real

[hybrid turret]

i mean there are a bunch of different languages and i'm sure in the end it won't matter (as long as it's server based bc sqlite is slow ig)

noSQL, mySQL, PostgreSQL whatever

lol

[umbral flint]

I guess I could have another table for pardoned punishments, but then it would have to be another table for each type of punishment

[chrome beacon]

sqlite isn't that slow

It's faster than you need it to be

[umbral flint]

the way I've designed things allows me to safely do that without breaking any other code though

[hybrid turret]

no i mean remove the punishments that were pardoned

[umbral flint]

Oh

Nah

[hybrid turret]

so that the entries are gone

[umbral flint]

I want logs

[hybrid turret]

on a big scale i'm sure that would clutter up disk space

[umbral flint]

even Hypixel stores your expired punishments

[blazing ocean]

well yea historic punishments are important for logs and moderating things

[hybrid turret]

huh

well

tho then

you couldnt use the UUID as primary key right?

wait

you can't do that at all

[blazing ocean]

for punishments you'd want an id

[hybrid turret]

oh no i could with my systems (i dont but i could ig, bc i remove them when temporary punishments are expired)

tbh yeah i'll refac my system to this appreach, thank you @umbral flint

[umbral flint]

Ok good luck

[hybrid turret]

ty

[wet breach]

until you get into a few hundred thousand records

[hybrid turret]

i just reloaded my maven and now nothing i imported using my pom is recognized by IJ anymore??

I can still build the jar but it can't find shit anymore

i changed nothing in the pom???

wtf

[wet breach]

try clearing caches

[hybrid turret]

and it works fine in my other plugin

where do i... uhm

do

that?

._.

[wet breach]

idk

its somewhere in the menus

I don't use intellij

just know that is a thing you can do to try to fix things

[hybrid turret]

hmm i'll rerun buildtools ig and check that way

idk wtf happened

and if that doesnt work, i'll just reboot bc i did nothing for this to happen lol

okay i had to change something in the pom and change it back

now it works

[hybrid turret]

wait a HashSet is internally just a HashMap??

[chrome beacon]

yes

[hybrid turret]

what's the point in using a hashset then?

i mean

i guess it woul be ugly to use a hashmap with some dummy value?

[eternal night]

it implements the Set interface by using a hashmap?

[rough drift]

yes

it just doesn't add a value

💀

[eternal night]

Yea, I mean, that is the point of it xD

[rough drift]

I don't know, ig convenience

[hybrid turret]

huh

interesting

[shadow night]

Ugly, inpractical and unintuitive

[hybrid turret]

yea true ig

[eternal oxide]

pretty sure it shoudl be 1.21.1

[ornate stag]

which one?

[eternal oxide]

current build of spigot is 1.21.1

[remote swallow]

it would be 1.21 not 1.21.0

[eternal oxide]

and yes add that repository

[remote swallow]

but use 1.21.1

[ornate stag]

[hybrid turret]

also adjust your <groupId>... and use Java 21, otherwise you'll have a problem when compiling

[ornate stag]

where can i change the java?

[pliant topaz]

Is there a way I could make the player not being able to jump as high, just as when they would be standing on a honey block? Ik theres an attribute in 1.21 but this would be for 1.20.1

[hybrid turret]

1st of install the correct java version via IJ or from any java distributor.

in the pom: change <source>1.8</source> and <target>1.8</target> to 21 instead of 1.8

like this:

            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>

                <configuration>
                  <release>21</release>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>

Tho

I just realized

I have 16 there

so i'm not entirely sure what exactly that does lol

[chrome beacon]

<release>21</release> is the new way of doing it

[hybrid turret]

instead of source and target?

[chrome beacon]

yes

[hybrid turret]

what does this line do exactly?

[chrome beacon]

set the release flag of the compiler

just like source and target set the source and target flags

[ornate stag]

wait so now what do i do?

[hybrid turret]

see this

i had double plugin

[hybrid turret]

what IDE are you using?

[chrome beacon]

Intellij

[ornate stag]

Intellij

i also have downloaded a plugin thats called Minecraft Development

[hybrid turret]

okay i'd recommend creating a configuration for packaging

[ornate stag]

how?

sorry im new

[hybrid turret]

top right

three dots

edit configurations

look for maven in the left column

in the run field type package (it will show a list anyway)

then when you want to build your plugin you can just click the nice green play button

[ornate stag]

top right in the maven tab?

[hybrid turret]

no

[ornate stag]

cuz in the other it says Nothing HEre

[chrome beacon]

The maven tab works too

[hybrid turret]

i mean yeah maven tab works too

Maven Tab > Lifecycle > package

[chrome beacon]

If you open the maven tab on the right find package under lifecycle

[hybrid turret]

But i find my way more convenient

• you can just Shift + F10 to build

[ornate stag]

i cant add screenshot

here

[hybrid turret]

What I personally find very convenient too is:

Setup your local testing server INSIDE the project folder like this:

[ornate stag]

i dont have it local

how do i setup one?

[blazing ocean]

you should be using run for that

not server

[hybrid turret]

an then define in your pom.xml that you want to build your jar into ${project.basedir}/server/plugins

[hybrid turret]

huh?

does that make a difference?

[blazing ocean]

it's the common run directory

well no

but it's conventions

[hybrid turret]

conventions according toooo?

[blazing ocean]

idk

[hybrid turret]

?bt

[undone axle]

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

[hybrid turret]

read this

[blazing ocean]

it's the common run directory

[hybrid turret]

i meannn

if it doesn't serve a purpose, i'll just leave it as server

[ornate stag]

ok wait

i just ran the plugin

no errors

BuildTools error tho

use java 21

[ornate stag]

how?

i download it?

[blazing ocean]

https://adoptium.net/download/

[ornate stag]

not https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/#jdk21-windows

??

[blazing ocean]

i mean that works too

[ornate stag]

oh ok

[eternal oxide]

Many don;t use oracle due to their bad behavior

[ornate stag]

still have the error

[hybrid turret]

(i use oracle bc i have no idea what behaviour we're talking about lol)

[eternal night]

corretto is nice becuase it does some path shenanigans and sets JAVA_HOME

[hybrid turret]

how did u run BuildTools

[ornate stag]

exe?

i suppose you're running a windows machine?

For somereason build tools is stuck on a frozen screen where its permanently loading

[hybrid turret]

have you downloaded git as the guide instructed? @ornate stag

[molten flower]

Have installed all the dependencies yep

GUI, i suppose?

The GUI is garbage, only had problems with it. Try the command line

[molten flower]

Yep, how do i do command version?

[hybrid turret]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/buildtools/#running-buildtools-cli

tl;dr:

create a buildtools.bat file in the same folder as the BuildTools.jar

in the batch file you write:

java -jar BuildTools.jar --revision <your wanted minecraft version>

if you want latest either write latest just write java -jar BuildTools.jar

just make sure you're using the correct java version

[molten flower]

just to be clear, i did this. is it correct?

java -jar BuildTools.jar --revision 1.20.1

[hybrid turret]

yea

this should need Java 21 afaik

or wait did mc start using java 21 with version 1.20.5?

i'm not sure

[molten flower]

The website said 20.5 over

[hybrid turret]

nice!

yea okay

then it should be 17

[molten flower]

How will i know if the jar file is being created?

[hybrid turret]

it will say this

more or less

[molten flower]

Because ive pressed the bat and it immediately goes off

[hybrid turret]

if there's a lot of text spammed in the console, you're on a good way

[hybrid turret]

you mean it closes again?

[molten flower]

Yep

[hybrid turret]

add pause below the line you wrote into the BATCH file

then the window will stay open and you can see what the issue is

Then send whatever the error is here (preferably in a code block)

thanks.. and with that i dont need to create server resource pack. for people to use it?

alright.. thanks!

Can i delete the build tools bat and jar?

Its in the same folder as the spigot files

[tawdry shoal]

hi, how do I check if a player's body has touched a certain block? 1.20.1

[ornate stag]

guys

when i run the plugins command it says no plugins

even tho its in the plugins folder

[molten flower]

Do i need to rename the spigot 1.20.1 jar file to just spigot?

[urban trout]

my double jump doesnt work if i change from creative into survival https://paste.md-5.net/otulavalas.cs

[eternal night]

PlayerGameModeChangeEvent is presumably called before the actual change

so you'd have to delay that setAllowFlight by e.g. a tick

[urban trout]

bet

[chrome beacon]

No

You should move to #help-server

[molten flower]

got it

[thin wind]

Hello is it possible to get a text display entity as a result in a raytrace ?

[smoky anchor]

No, display entities have no hitbox.

[thin wind]

oh ok thanks i'll use shulker

[smoky anchor]

No idea what you're doing but interaction entities exist

This one is the opposite, only hitbox.

[slender elbow]

you can, you have to increase the ray size

it's one of the parameters in rayTrace method

[grim hound]

what the hell is the restart command in spigot?

[chrome beacon]

It restarts

Well more specifically it just runs the script file you tell it to

[grim hound]

why is it so broken

like, it doesn't really unbind the netty port

[chrome beacon]

It's not broken?

[grim hound]

I mean like

[chrome beacon]

The script runs before the JVM has fully shutdown

Add a slight delay to allow the server to fully stop

[grim hound]

how does it start the server later on then?

[lost matrix]

You need to define a start script in the spigot.yml or sth

[worldly ingot]

Yeah you need a restart.sh

[chrome beacon]

I meant a delay in the script file

not in the server/plugin

[worldly ingot]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/spigot/browse/CraftBukkit-Patches/0023-Watchdog-Thread.patch#69-201

Config option in spigot.yml, defaults to start.sh in the root

[grim hound]

how does it run the script if the jvm fully shuts down?

[worldly ingot]

There's a separate watchdog thread that doesn't terminate the JVM

[grim hound]

non-daemon?

[chrome beacon]

As I said in the message you replied to the script is run before jvm shutdown

[grim hound]

don't these just prevent the jvm from exiting?

[chrome beacon]

You can launch a script in a separate process not related to the jvm

[grim hound]

so it runs the script which most probably starts another jvm process before the current one shuts down?

[worldly ingot]

Oh, yeah, sorry, watchdog thread is separate lol

It issues a shutdown hook https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/spigot/browse/CraftBukkit-Patches/0023-Watchdog-Thread.patch#158-182

[chrome beacon]

yes

which is why you need a delay in the script to ensure that the jvm has time to stop before starting the new one

[grim hound]

well this seems rather flawed

[slender elbow]

i mean all sockets and file locks will be released by the time the process is launched

[grim hound]

using a fixed amount of time for a thread sleep

wanna prevent leaves distance change how can i do ?

any idea?

[tardy delta]

wha-

[quasi gulch]

Is there something like .setIngredient(char, ItemStack) for a custom Recipe in Spigot like Paper has it? https://jd.papermc.io/paper/1.21.1/org/bukkit/inventory/ShapedRecipe.html#setIngredient(char,org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack)

I couldnt Find that Method

[remote swallow]

setIngredient(char, MaterialChoice) and use an ExactChoice

[quaint mantle]

wanna prevent leaves distance change how can i do ?

hashmap moment

[glossy laurel]

omg 7smile7

[wraith delta]

is it faster to have 1 yml file with every players uuid in it to read a int. or generate a yml file for each uuid and read that single file?

im guessing generate a uuid file, because we wouldnt want to use a loop to save a yml with uuid's of people who were offline right?

unless of course saving the yml is not a big deal and will only cost the performance of saving one section

[quaint mantle]

u guys help me for my issue
i will be crazy

[pseudo hazel]

are you asking if its better to save 10 ints in 1 file or 10 ints in 10 files?

if so the answer is 1 file

opening a file takes more effort than reading some line

[silent slate]

I have a big switch statement with about 25 cases and it takes the code about 7-8 seconds to return the string without any actual calculations inside the cases, why is that?

[pseudo hazel]

?code

?nocode

[undone axle]

It’s hard to answer a programming question without code
Oh no! You ran into a problem. But no worries, people are willing to help, but first they need to see your code. This is because otherwise, they would be providing help based on guesses instead of concrete knowledge. Whether it be a compile error, runtime error, or an unexpected output, I'm sure that if you were to provide code, you'd receive a quick solution.

[silent slate]

?code

[wraith delta]

its for currency/money. each time they spend it will save the yml file. if theres 50k users in the tree of 1 yml file would it take longer than, each player has their own file named their uuid.yml

[pseudo hazel]

dont save after every change

[silent slate]

https://pastecode.io/s/gh2kud3v

[wraith delta]

what if i need to manually open the file and read it, would the updated amount of money for a player be live? i figure if its saved after each purchase or gain it would be safer

also, i think it can only read the new amount if its saved

like if i +1 money, itll still read 0 until its saved

[pseudo hazel]

dont read from 2 places at the same time

ideally you have a class that manages this file

which should have like a map of all current values

and then when you save the server or close it you save it to a file

or like every x minutes

but every time someone does something is kinda wild

[wraith delta]

ill try it

[pseudo hazel]

sounds like a database might be better in this case thougj

[wraith delta]

dont need to sync and its easier to read a yml

[pseudo hazel]

that code cant take 8 seconds wtf

[wraith delta]

im guessing its not a significant difference between the time saving yml vs sql

[pseudo hazel]

and without the switch there is no 8 second delay?

[pseudo hazel]

well yeah, idk what is better

but lie 50k files is kinda bonkies anyways

[safe furnace]

ISn't there available for 1.8+ versioN. or i need custom?

Sorry to bother u btw :)

[wraith delta]

Display Entity is something added in 1.19.4, improved in 1.21 very much and is a amazing feature.

1.8 is very outdated

[safe furnace]

I know. but there is server that is 1.8+ and has that option

that's why i'm asking

[wraith delta]

they likely dont. it either uses a armor stand, or backwards version compatibility, the entity would be invisible

if neither, probably a texture pack

[pseudo hazel]

but its worse to manage 50k files vs a database though

[wraith delta]

I only figured it would be faster since its a smaller file

[safe furnace]

for to make need probably a lot of armor stands.. thats definetly not. For texture pack i don't know because when i joined for first time didn't asked for to download the server resource pack..

[pseudo hazel]

generally, but there is some overhead on just opening any file, regardless of size

[wraith delta]

That is armor stands

[pseudo hazel]

maybe make like 16 files based on the first chaarcter of their uuid or smth

[safe furnace]

is there any plugin that do that?

[wraith delta]

ArmorStandEditor

google before asking

[safe furnace]

;)

[silent slate]

it does, i isolated it

                    player.sendMessage(getTextFromLang(getPlayerLanguage(player.getUniqueId()), "player-not-exist"));
                    return false;
                }```

[pseudo hazel]

whats getPlayerLanguage

[slender elbow]

spark in shambles

[silent slate]

a current 1 long hashmap of uuid to string

        return playerLanguage.get(playerId);
    ```

[pseudo hazel]

what does hasPlayedBefore do

[tardy delta]

💀

[silent slate]

thats a spigot feature

[pseudo hazel]

why the skull

[silent slate]

bc its common knowledge

[tardy delta]

what would it do

[hazy parrot]

I would assume it checks if player played before

[silent slate]

i would assume your right

[tardy delta]

https://tenor.com/view/skeleton-thinking-meme-hmm-finger-on-mouth-gif-5982947770194854266

checks the playercache

[pseudo hazel]

stop meming and start explaining why a fucking switch takes 8 seconds

[tardy delta]

what

[pseudo hazel]

.

[tardy delta]

impossible

[silent slate]

thats what i thought

[pseudo hazel]

exactly

which is why I asked what hasPlayedBefore does

[silent slate]

imma debug it even some after i do some homework

[pseudo hazel]

like idfk

[ornate mantle]

how do i detect a hit on a BlockDisplay entity?

[blazing ocean]

PlayerInteractAtEntityEvent

[ornate mantle]

its PlayerInteractEvent since i wanted to detect a hit (left click)

[blazing ocean]

not sure tbh

[hybrid turret]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[young knoll]

Neither

They don’t have hitboxes

Use an interaction entity as a passenger for click detection

[blazing ocean]

what are you trying to do

[humble tulip]

?xy

[undone axle]

https://xyproblem.info/

[blazing ocean]

why new york specifically and not the system timezone

and why not system timezone

[tardy delta]

get a local date time, offset it with the ny timezone

[blazing ocean]

iirc it's just Clock.now or something in java

[acoustic pendant]

Is the only way to open a book to a player through NMS? I haven't find anything else

[chrome beacon]

No

The method is called openBook

[acoustic pendant]

Oh, thanks

[chrome beacon]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#openBook(org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack)

[acoustic pendant]

By the way, Is it possible to show items in a book? Or am I confusing that with mods ?

[chrome beacon]

You can with a resource pack

[acoustic pendant]

Or click them

[acoustic pendant]

True

[pseudo hazel]

click events

assuming text in the book are coponents

[acoustic pendant]

I'll try that, thanks

[dapper flower]

My plugin migh have to send tons of packets for block changes and the alike to the player, would it be worth/possible making a thread pool that sends those block updates?

[young knoll]

You could send a multi block update packet

Or multiple of them depending on how many blocks you need to change

[dapper flower]

would it make a difference using Player#sendBlockChanges over Player#sendBlockChange?

[river oracle]

yeah

sendBlockChanges packs them into the same packet so you can update more blocks with one packet

[upper hazel]

will a non-flying mob move if given a path to the air?

and is it possible to somehow control the mob you’re sitting on?

not a horse

with move buttons

[dapper flower]

Player#sendBlockChange requires a collection of block states, normally what i do is i want to set some locations to have a particulare block data, how would i do that with block states

[dapper flower]

i think the only way would be using NMS

would my original idea work? i want to dodge NMS

[paper viper]

I’m not sure about a thread pool but do you mean like spreading it across many ticks?

Sending thee packets async is no difference from sending them normal cause they still get sent normally

[chrome beacon]

You can create a block state

set the data on it and then copy it to the locations you want

[dapper flower]

oh alr

[dapper flower]

how so

[chrome beacon]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/Material.html#createBlockData()
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/block/data/BlockData.html#createBlockState()

[dapper flower]

BlockData != BlockState

[chrome beacon]

That's two links

A chain of method calls if you will

[dapper flower]

cool, can't change its location tho

wait maybe

[chrome beacon]

I told you how

[chrome beacon]

.

[dapper flower]

wait

how do you set data on it? there is a createBlockData(String) however the documentation isn't clear on what to use there

there is no set methods in BlockData

what i assume it is doing is that it is getting the location from the blockState, but if the blockState doesn't have a location it won'y work

[chrome beacon]

I meant set the data on the block state

but ofc you can modify block data too

It entierly depends on what you want to change

[dapper flower]

man, i don't see the methods that allow you to change either BlockData or BlockState, what do you mean

there are only getters here

[chrome beacon]

What do you want to change

[dapper flower]

location

of a blockstate

[chrome beacon]

my man I told you how

[dapper flower]

you told me to create a block data and then a block state 100% understood that

but you cannot change either

you can just create them
