[crude charm]

for future projects

some of the new servers I've seen are crazy and defo not possible on 1.8

[summer scroll]

I can name few of them, custom model data to define the "textures" of certain item, persistent data containers.

?pdc

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-guide-to-1-14-persistentdataholder-api.371200/

[summer scroll]

In 1.21.4 it's even crazier with food components, etc.

Basically you can make any items consumable

[crude charm]

oh wtf

[blazing ocean]

Resource packs are like the coolest shit ever

you can make custom shaders, fonts, textures, models, everything

[young knoll]

Eat the sword

[crude charm]

oh wow

shame I'm terrible with graphic design

so PDC is like a database? for storing plugin data

[hushed spindle]

kind of, not really

PDC is more or less used to add your own metadata to items and (block)entities

you should not store bulk data in here

[summer scroll]

Yes, kinda like nbt tag

[crude charm]

ahh like add a tag to it

ye

so when would I use that?

[hushed spindle]

if you're making custom items for example

and you wanna add functionality to them

you could just add that functionality by matching the item exactly on your custom definition, but that's not smart

[summer scroll]

Also many developers decide to store data on the lore previously, you can now use pdc for that

Previously comparing item it would compare display name, lore, etc

Now we can use pdc to compare it, less breaking

[crude charm]

like checking a right click of an item

[hushed spindle]

less breaking and less intrusive

[crude charm]

u would check the pdc

[hushed spindle]

prevents you having to add lore you might not want there

[crude charm]

not the name & type or smth

[summer scroll]

The craziest thing is the components, there are tons of new components on 1.21.4

[crude charm]

ye I gotta check this out it seems crazy

I remember when PDC dropped and people were going crazy I was just a 1.8 user so I never learned it

[hushed spindle]

components are great but there aren't all that many new ones on 1.21.4 yet

at least not exposed by spigot

[hushed spindle]

1.14

oh sorry

misread

[crude charm]

all good lol

is this it? https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/meta/components/package-summary.html

also just wondering too is there util plugin people use? I know lucko's helper was popular a long time ago but idk what people use now

[feral fiber]

I have a problem that I want to create an interaction entity and a display item but... I don't know how to do this

private static final String[] playerHeads = {
            "eyJ0ZXh0dXJlcyI6eyJTS0lOIjp7InVybCI6Imh0dHA6Ly90ZXh0dXJlcy5taW5lY3JhZnQubmV0L3RleHR1cmUvYWZmYjlmM2FhMWQxYmU5NmNhY2U3OTU3NGU3MmZiMzFiNjQ2Y2I2YTJkMTkxMDFlYTEyN2Y5MjBlZmUwOTkifX19"
};

double x = parseCoordinate(args[0], player.getLocation().getX());
double y = parseCoordinate(args[1], player.getLocation().getY());
double z = parseCoordinate(args[2], player.getLocation().getZ());

String worldType = args[3];
World world = player.getWorld();

int headIndex = Integer.parseInt(worldType) - 1;
if (headIndex < 0 || headIndex >= playerHeads.length) {
player.sendMessage("Invalid head type. Available types: 1, 2, 3.");
return false;
}
String texture = playerHeads[headIndex];

org.bukkit.entity.ItemDisplay itemDisplay = (org.bukkit.entity.ItemDisplay) world.spawnEntity(player.getLocation().add(x, y, z), org.bukkit.entity.EntityType.ITEM_DISPLAY);
itemDisplay.setItemStack(new org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack(org.bukkit.Material.PLAYER_HEAD, 1));

org.bukkit.inventory.meta.SkullMeta skullMeta = (org.bukkit.inventory.meta.SkullMeta) itemDisplay.getItemStack().getItemMeta();
if (skullMeta != null) {
GameProfile profile = new GameProfile(java.util.UUID.randomUUID(), null);
profile.getProperties().put("textures", new Property("textures", texture));

skullMeta.setOwnerProfile(profile);
itemDisplay.getItemStack().setItemMeta(skullMeta);
}

?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.

[smoky anchor]

Also, some little formatting would not hurt anyone, your code lacks indentation and is really difficult to read.

[feral fiber]

there are no errors and I sent the code where the entity is not created without errors there

there's a ds limit(

[blazing ocean]

what are imports

[smoky anchor]

Google "guard clause", it reduces this ugly if-else chain.
Follow java naming conventions, classes start with capital letter.

Is your command actually executing ?
Do you have it registered and is it in plugin.yml ?

org.bukkit.entity.# why, just import it.

[feral fiber]

commands:
  makingGift:
    aliases:
      - mg
    usage: /makinggift <x> <y> <z> <type>

[smoky anchor]

and where do you register it ?
usually it is in onLoad

[feral fiber]

public void onEnable() {
        // Plugin startup logic
        getCommand("makingGift").setExecutor(new makingGift());
    }

[smoky anchor]

player.getLocation().add(x, y, z)
Are you inputting xyz as absolute values when you're running the command ?

'cause that won't work in your case

[feral fiber]

I can't create an entity

[smoky anchor]

you won't be able to create an entity if you're trying to spawn it in unloaded chunks

[feral fiber]

I create loaded chunks

[smoky anchor]

I still don't think the coordinates are correct
If you were to input /cmd 123 64 123 idk
And you were standing at 123 64 123
The entity will be created at 246 128 246
The same would happen with /cmd ~ ~ ~ idk 'cause again, you're adding the xyz to current player coordinate

Try to create new location instead

[feral fiber]

hmm

i send coordinate
player.sendMessage("Coordinates: X=" + x + ", Y=" + y + ", Z=" + z);
player.sendMessage("World Type: " + worldType);

[smoky anchor]

This may print the correct coordinates, but you're still adding them to player coordinates when you execute spawnEntity

[chrome beacon]

hm? setOwnerProfile doesn't accept a GameProfile?

How did that even compile

[smoky anchor]

And you're not printing that

[chrome beacon]

Also where's the import for it?

[feral fiber]

well, I also tested with teleporting the player to the position, everything is fine, but the entity is not created because I don’t know how to normally create these display entities in them and there is probably a problem, there is simply no normal information on the Internet or I don’t know how to google

[slender elbow]

ECJ 🔥

[chrome beacon]

true I was also thinking that 💀

[smoky anchor]

replace world.spawnEntity(player.getLocation().add(x, y, z), org.bukkit.entity.EntityType.ITEM_DISPLAY);
With world.spawnEntity(new Location(world, x, y, z), org.bukkit.entity.EntityType.ITEM_DISPLAY); and see if that does anything
And fix your imports

[feral fiber]

💀

[unique meteor]

im too lazy to check whats your problem, so give me 3 words of what youre trying

[smoky anchor]

attempting (to) summon entity

[feral fiber]

create display item and interaction

[unique meteor]

first of all, you cant interact with an display entity

[smoky anchor]

Try spawning a pig instead of a display entity, just as a test ?
Assuming you fixed the thing I told you it should spawn a pig

[unique meteor]

second, show us your code

[glossy laurel]

Guys, I'm making launchable fireballs, but they collide with the player instantly after getting spawned. What are some possible fixes for this? Can I make it not collide with the player somehow?

[unique meteor]

either cancel the event or spawn it infront of the player

[feral fiber]

okey

[glossy laurel]

Which event do I cancel

[unique meteor]

i just checked, you cant. it would just cause that it doesnt explode - but still vanishes

just spawn it infront of the player

[smoky anchor]

Interestingly, summoning a fireball with a command does not make it explode right away. So there must be a trick to it.

[eternal oxide]

Player#launchProjectile

[hybrid spoke]

elgar coming to the rescue

[glossy laurel]

im so cool

I made my fireball have 1000 explosion power

and my server crashed

side note: this is probably one of the things launchProjectile method does

Did I make a mistake in my Maven setup? I can't see it.

Unresolved dependency: 'com.github.Gecolay.GSit:core:jar:LATEST'

[sharp bough]

replace LATEST with an actual version

[short drift]

That seems to have fixed the issue.
I'm very casual Java user. My preferred language is C# and - all this Java dependency wizardry is out of my scope.
Why does this suddenly not work anymore?

[sharp bough]

gradle deps are a nightmare, i hate them

you have maven if you prefer

Why does this suddenly not work anymore?
what doesnt work

[short drift]

It used to work fine with the LATEST.

And it's also what the GSIT docs recommend doing.

[sharp bough]

if hes pushing both to the version and to a "latest" version then he either forgot, removed it or moved the repository

[short drift]

I don't know anything about Maven - or Gradle - I just copy paste this weird XML in my my pom.xml so I can do some coding.

[sharp bough]

hahah okay

send the entire pom

[sharp bough]

https://jitpack.io/#gecolay/GSit
if i had to guess, he removed it for whatever reason

[ivory sleet]

iirc it was changed

im not sure, but maybe try latest.release or latest.integration

[sharp bough]

wouldnt that show here?

[hybrid spoke]

yes

but its -SNAPSHOT

and for the latest commit, not release

[short drift]

Also. I'm having real trouble trying to find DiscordSRV plugin API. Does it even exist?

[hybrid spoke]

https://github.com/DiscordSRV/DiscordSRV/tree/master/src/main/java/github/scarsz/discordsrv/api

[slender elbow]

you can't get it just from the texture url, you need to get the player profile from the profile api endpoint, that will include the signature and that url you sent in the profile's properties

https://minecraft.wiki/w/Mojang_API#Query_player's_skin_and_cape

[grim hound]

https://sessionserver.mojang.com/session/minecraft/profile/3fcaa1ec552248d6bfee793f4afb7e9b then why doesn't my very own skin include the signature?

[slender elbow]

because you didn't pass the unsigned=false param

like the wiki page i linked mentions

[grim hound]

a

xd

okay

[grim hound]

so is there any point of there being a textures.minecraft.net?

[slender elbow]

to get the actual texture image

the profile property contains the signature and the url to the texture

[ivory sleet]

its just gradle that supports latest status so to speak

[grim hound]

doesn't the value and signature already allow a manual decode?

[slender elbow]

the property does not contain the texture image

it has the url to the image

[grim hound]

ah

nice

also, paper's FlushConsolidationHandler is ruining my day

I try to send a packet after transferring the player to the very same server with a transfer packet

and he just keeps on connecting...

[grim hound]

cuz nuh-uh

I do a bit of black magic under the hood

but c'mon

welp, I guess modifying the pipeline it is

not gonna do channel.unsafe().flush() every single time a login packet isn't sent

I need a professional plugin developer. I'm gonna pay...

She mock my minecraft till I publish

[pseudo hazel]

you mean posting an update?

[tranquil shale]

yes, but in the sense that I can replace my previous .jar file

[pseudo hazel]

you dont replace it, you upload a new one

[tranquil shale]

and how?

[eternal night]

try that

[tranquil shale]

or how to can i delete my full resource?

Is there something wrong with the jar you uploaded?

Like does it contain something you really need to get removed

if not just post an update

[remote swallow]

You can delete specific updates if there's a newer one afaik

[chrome beacon]

hm yeah looks like it

[tranquil shale]

I uploaded the wrong file, a completely different one than what I wanted

or one of the versions of my project, only that part doesn't work and I accidentally uploaded it

How to solve problem that my plugin freezes when i am creating a new world with that

I just want to make the same world same seed for players but if someone is creating a new one then plugin freezes for few seconds

[mortal hare]

I wonder if bounding box positions are usually calculated on the gpu or the cpu side

i guess its needed for collision so it should be computed on the cpu

no?

[fleet pier]

I think ur doing it on main thread

Try doing it in a scheduler runTask or runTaskAsync

[chrome beacon]

yes

runTask will be on the main thread

Also I don't think it's supported doing it off the main thread

[feral fiber]

how to set the size for the interaction entity?

[mortal hare]

that was general graphics programming question but ok 😄

sorry for context loss

[chrome beacon]

You can calculate them on the GPU if you want to

[mortal hare]

yea but then you need to do branching

and we all know that's not what you want on shaders

[chrome beacon]

What do you want to use the boxes for?

Culling?

[mortal hare]

i will calculate them on cpu probs. im making my own trashy open gl game engine using lwjgl

where 2D sprites are being rendered using entity component system

its going to be slow af, but who cares

new Entity().setComponent(new Sprite("assets/tank.png'))
and then OpenGL renderer loops entities on each frame and checks if entity has a Sprite.class component. if it does it renders a quad and applies a texture from provided file path

that's very inefficient, but overall renderer is being decoupled from the game itself, so there must be penalty anyways

but oh well

i need to calculate bounding boxes because i have Position, Size and Rotation components, so they're going to be used for calculating collision between sprites and for calculating quad vertice positions

[feral fiber]

please help me

[inner mulch]

we cant help if you dont tell us what you need help with

[feral fiber]

How do I set the size for an interaction entity I have a simple code that creates it

Location loc = new Location(world, x, y, z);

Interaction interaction = (Interaction) world.spawnEntity(loc, EntityType.INTERACTION);

[wraith relic]

hello! I'm making a minecraft plugin and with a gui, when you type /uzinomanage <player> it will appear a gui where you can freeze, unfreeze and kill the player, the kill functionates but the freeze and unfreeze doesn't, is there anyway i can fix it?

[inner mulch]

we need ur code

[wraith relic]

which one

the listener's one?

[inner mulch]

i dont really know, i dont know what u are doing in ur code

we need to see everything relevant to ur problem

[wraith relic]

the listener

i entered a stupid code

it's just target.isFrozen()

package me.uzinoh.uzinomenu.listeners;

import org.bukkit.Bukkit;
import org.bukkit.ChatColor;
import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.inventory.InventoryClickEvent;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;

public class MenuListener implements Listener {

private final Set<Player> frozenPlayers = new HashSet<>();

@EventHandler
public void onInventoryClick(InventoryClickEvent event) {
    if (!event.getView().getTitle().equals(ChatColor.GOLD + "Gestisci i giocatori.")) {
        return;
    }

    event.setCancelled(true);

    if (event.getCurrentItem() == null) {
        return;
    }


    Player player = (Player) event.getWhoClicked();
    Player target = Bukkit.getPlayer(event.getView().getItem(22).getItemMeta().getDisplayName());

    if (target == null) {
        player.closeInventory();
        player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "Il giocatore selezionato non è più o non è mai stato online!");
        return;
    }

    if(event.getCurrentItem().getType() == Material.RED_DYE) {
        target.isFrozen();
        player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "Sei stato freezato da uno staff!");
    } else if(event.getCurrentItem().getType() == Material.BLUE_DYE) {
        target.isFrozen();
        event.setCancelled(true);
        player.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "Sei stato unfreezato da uno staff!");
    } else if(event.getCurrentItem().getType() == Material.IRON_SWORD) {
        target.setHealth(0);
        player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "Sei stato ucciso da un membro dello staff!");

this is the code

[inner mulch]

so isFreeze() checks if the player is frozen and doesnt freeze him + with freezing its meant when a player dies in powdered snow

i think with freezing you mean stopping them from moving

[wraith relic]

ye

i just want a simple little code not a large code like they show on youtube

[inner mulch]

okay

[wraith relic]

what code can i use?

[inner mulch]

there is no quick solution for that

[wraith relic]

wdym by quick solution

[inner mulch]

there is no code that you can use

[wraith relic]

how

[inner mulch]

you have to make it urself

[wraith relic]

how do i connect the code to the listener

[inner mulch]

what?

[wraith relic]

i mean, if i make a code in another class, how do i connect it to the listener

[inner mulch]

ur listener is a class, you can use dependency injection or create an instance of you other class

if you are having trouble with java, i would recommend watching yt videos

[wraith relic]

so basically the simplest way to "freeze" someone is just to put their walkspeed to 0

[lilac dagger]

Ye

And prevent moveevent

Because they can jump and move that way

Event set to event get from does it

[wraith relic]

what if i do Player.moveEvent event.setCancelled(true);

[inner mulch]

you need to only cancel it for the player

[lilac dagger]

I don't know what that did exactly

I always used the way I said earlier

Should work I think 🤔

[wraith relic]

how do i do that

[inner mulch]

as i said learn java

i will not spoon feed

[chrome beacon]

Don't detect inventories by their name 💀

[wraith relic]

wait wait

[chrome beacon]

inb4 someone renames a chest and starts freezing people

[inner mulch]

you can find the links yourself by searching whatever you need and then spigot docs at the end

[mortal hare]

hmm

what if i exploit function arguments for compile time safety for array elements..

surely for small amounts its not bad

[ivory sleet]

what exactly do you experience an issue with? (also is this Java?)

Hey guys, I have a problem with my code. I'm making an item store with JSON storage, but I have an error in a part of my code when returning the price in a message.

public ItemModel fromItemStack(ItemStack item) {

                    }
                }
            }
            
            return builder.build();
        }
}```

private void handleItemClick(Player player, ItemStack item) {
            ItemModel itemModel = plugin.getItemConverter().fromItemStack(item);
            if (itemModel != null) {

                player.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "Has seleccionado: " + 
                    ChatColor.WHITE + itemModel.getName());
                player.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "Precio: " + 
                    ChatColor.WHITE + itemModel.getPrice());
            }
        }


}```

in the json file it is saved like this

is that the entire config?

the error is saying there is something in the config you haven't shown us

[slender elbow]

if (line.startsWith(ChatColor.GOLD + "Precio: ")) {
    try {
        String priceStr = ChatColor.stripColor(line.substring(9));
        double price = Double.parseDouble(priceStr);
        builder.price(price);

please for the love of god do not do this

use PDC to store data

[mortal hare]

looks like 1.8 code

PDC back then didnt existed

[slender elbow]

what about that looks 1.8 lol

that could be any version

[mortal hare]

newer versions use chat components

[slender elbow]

spigot users don't

[remote swallow]

no

[strange barn]

is 1.8

[slender elbow]

good luck

[mortal hare]

https://tenor.com/view/throw-up-dry-heave-vomit-gross-eww-gif-11243129904168153548

[remote swallow]

its paper that force components, you can use components on spigot but most people dont still

[mortal hare]

im so used to paper's adventure that i didnt knew spigot still uses strings for text

[slender elbow]

you barely can

[remote swallow]

you can use bungee components in some places

still waiting on that pr @worldly ingot

[slender elbow]

not for lore loll

yeah @worldly ingot

i miss you)

[mortal hare]

paper is right and spigot should've done that ages ago

[remote swallow]

it might happen one day

[mortal hare]

i think 1.8 introduced chat components natively in nms

or smth

its been so long

    public void setMatrixUniform4(final CharSequence name, boolean transpose,
                                  final float value1, final float value2, final float value3, final float value4,
                                  final float value5, final float value6, final float value7, final float value8,
                                  final float value9, final float value10, final float value11, final float value12,
                                  final float value13, final float value14, final float value15, final float value16
    ) {
        GL33.glUniformMatrix4fv(this.getUniformLocation(name), transpose, new float[] {
            value1, value2, value3, value4,
            value5, value6, value7, value8,
            value9, value10, value11, value12,
            value13, value14, value15, value16
        });
    }

cursed code

this looks cursed, but it can really provide type safety at compile time, not allowing to pass bigger or smaller arrays to opengl state which expects 4x4 matrix

but i think i should remove it 😄 because that's way to much

🤢

[mortal hare]

but hear me out

you can get this compile time safety without any runtime checks

at the cost of ugliness

this kind of exploitation reminds me of SFINAE from CPP traits

[ivory sleet]

"in an ideal world we would be able to encode the size in an iterative type" - probably nobody

[mortal hare]

in c, cpp we have fixed sizes array references

[ivory sleet]

i mean yea

[mortal hare]

too bad java doesnt have it

[ivory sleet]

but its only as safe as u respect it to be though unless u go super strict

[mortal hare]

i means probs impossible due to how array live on heap

[ivory sleet]

for example haskell has this kind of type, but enforces it (which ig is comparable to strict)

[mortal hare]

finally i have something barely working with ECS

https://tenor.com/view/cr1tikal-penguinz0-meme-woo-yeah-baby-gif-19316511

[inner mulch]

does any1 know an image that shows as an example what all of these mean? like for example what happens if i increase x on leftRotation

[mortal hare]

these are the values which are being applied to the matrix as transformations. basically by altering these vectors, you be able to scale, translate and rotate something

if i had to guess

[inner mulch]

thank you for the brief explanation, do you know any image having a visual representation of all of these?

scale is pretty obvious, but what does left and rightrotation do

[worldly ingot]

They're both rotation, it's just when the rotations are applied

[mortal hare]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_Ph2cuEWrE

this is not really related generally

but it explains it kinda great

[inner mulch]

okay

[worldly ingot]

iirc right rotation applies first (is the initial rotation), then left rotation applies after the scale and translation

[inner mulch]

ok

[worldly ingot]

Wouldn't quote me on that, but I believe that's the difference lol

[inner mulch]

okay

[worldly ingot]

I was close. Right rotation first, then scale, then left rotation, then translation

[mortal hare]

it depends on the shader

but yeah

[worldly ingot]

That's how Mojang has it defined

I guess more accurately, how Minecraft has it defined

Translation is just changing position along the x/y/z axis, rotation is rotation around the center of the model, and scale is size along the x/y/z axis

new Transformation(
    new Vector3f(0, 1, 0), // Translates the model up by 1
    new AxisAngle4f(Math.PI, 1, 0, 0), // Rotates the model by 180 degrees along the x axis (flips upside down)
    new Vector3f(2, 2, 2), // Scales the model by 2x on each axis
    new AxisAngel4f() // Confusingly, the first rotation to apply, but do nothing here. Angle = 0
);

[inner mulch]

thank you

[worldly ingot]

We should really add some Javadoc comments to that Transformation class, or maybe to Display somewhere, to indicate in which order the transformation applies

[inner mulch]

that would be great

[chrome beacon]

https://misode.github.io/transformation/

[worldly ingot]

Mmm, useful tool

[inner mulch]

yes thank you olivo

[sullen marlin]

Need a mathematics and compsci degree to do anything in mc these days

[worldly ingot]

Or just any dummy like me who knows how to read a wiki page 🤓

and has WAY too much free time

[ancient plank]

owo

[sly topaz]

usually it is easier to get the existing transformation and apply your changes to it, since its objects are mutable

var transformation = display.getTransformation();
transformation.getTranslation().add(0, 1, 0);
transformation.getLeftRotation().rotate(Math.PI);
transformation.getScale().mul(2);

display.setTransformation(transformation);

[crude charm]

which ones are commonly used?

[ivory sleet]

ugh I mean there the gui ones, the command ones and then like just general utility like eco, helper, bkcommonlib

if i were u id look it up at an awesome-minecraft gh list or sth

or like awesome-spigot w/e

[worldly ingot]

Yeah, I was just demonstrating what each parameter did lol

[pure dagger]

what does 'const' do

[crude charm]

ty ty

[worldly ingot]

In Java? Nothing

It's a keyword, but it does nothing

Ultimately superceded by final

[mortal hare]

missed opportunity to have an alias to final

[worldly ingot]

The last thing we need in Java is keyword aliases

[mortal hare]

i guess we have kotlin for shit like that

i cringed so hard when i saw full guide on kotlin for java devs was 3 hours longer than for rust on youtube

[worldly ingot]

mfw #define const int

No, other way around

#define int const

[mortal hare]

#define true false

classic

[worldly ingot]

That's just not nice

[mortal hare]

classic way to show your importance when corporate layoffs start

trying to catch PlayerInteractEvent RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK while holding a bundle and its just not working

[ivory sleet]

oh no not poor innocent integer cache 😭

[rough ibex]

You can do the same in Python

[warm halo]

hello, I have a problem with the keys in the getcase plugin, when I want to open the box it writes no key and I hold it in my hand

[indigo orchid]

any1 know the dependency for the latest world edit?

[sly topaz]

what do you mean by the dependency

[indigo orchid]

Ummm like for pom.xml

So I can use the world edit classes and stuff in my own project

I can’t seem to find it

[unborn hollow]

how do i set someone's scoreboard objective value through spigot?

[indigo orchid]

Thanks

[sly topaz]

depends, if you want to set it for the main scoreboard, you do Bukkit.getScoreboardManager().getMainScoreboard() and then get their objective and entry from the Scoreboard object

but if you want to change it from the player's own scoreboard, then you get it from Player#getScoreboard

[chrome beacon]

1. Get scoreboard
2. Get objective
3. Get score of player
4. Get actual score value from score object

[sly topaz]

I guess Player#getScoreboard will return the main scoreboard if they hadn't set a new one anyway now that I think about it

[unborn hollow]

so "getPlayer().getScoreboard().getObjective("inDialogue").getScore("inDialogue").setScore(0)"?

[sly topaz]

is inDialogue the player's name

[unborn hollow]

inDialogue is the name of the objective

[sly topaz]

getScore requires the entry name

that's often the entity's name

[unborn hollow]

so "getPlayer().getScoreboard().getObjective("inDialogue").getScore(event.getPlayer()).setScore(1);"?

[sly topaz]

not exactly what is recommended since the method that takes players is deprecated but sure that will work

[unborn hollow]

what's the alternative?

and thanks for all your help

[sly topaz]

just using the player's name should do

aka event.getPlayer().getName()

[echo basalt]

Does CraftItemEvent get fired multiple times if you're shift clicking?

[slender elbow]

I think so

[lime pulsar]

EntitySnapshot ess = getServer().getEntityFactory().createEntitySnapshot(mdata);

null

[echo basalt]

null

[lime pulsar]

but why for?

[mortal vortex]

Does Java have a #define equavilent?

[pseudo hazel]

you mean macros? no

[river oracle]

Yeah you can use preproccesors

Take a look at manifold

You'd need a IDE plugin too though

You need to use ASM too

So that's "fun"

[pseudo hazel]

okay, so its a "no*"

[river oracle]

A not as straightforward no because you can achieve preprocessing it's just a tad of effort

But if you really want it it's worth it

[inner mulch]

you could also just have a class full of static methods

[river oracle]

Well that doesn't do the same thing define does

So kinda but no

[buoyant viper]

id say just fuck with Integer cache until something works

oh hey thats exactly what they did

[unborn hollow]

forgot to mention that setting the score of the player worked, thank you very much

now i'm just struggling to wrap my head around how to check if someone's score is equal to 1

[smoky anchor]

Hi, please let me sleep haha
(Don't worry, I didn't gat woke up)

[mortal vortex]

Define is a macro, it replaces before compilation, it isnt the same as final or immutable variables because those are still inherintly variables and reserve memory.

[quaint mantle]

No. Only via buildscript or modifying the compiler

[quaint mantle]

Imagine thinking about memory in java 💀

[wise mulch]

Average modern minecraft dev

Is it possible to read data on the current data pack from a plugin? Or for a plugin to provide a datapack?

I'm gonna try to make my skygrid generator use custom datapack data to define stuff like what generates on the grid, what layers, what chances etc

[hybrid spoke]

whats wrong with it?

[quaint mantle]

Fr buy more ram

[crude charm]

why is ChatColour decripted? what do I use instead??

[drowsy helm]

deprecated?

its only deprecated in Paper

[crude charm]

why?

[drowsy helm]

read their docs

[crude charm]

is there an advantage to coding on paper?

or should I just stick to spigot

like I know they have certain neiche events spigot doesnt have but idk apart from that

[drowsy helm]

That's something you'll have to decide for yourself. this place isn't really the right forum to advocate for a fork

[crude charm]

Well I mean idk what it has to offer

[drowsy helm]

not using spigot api does mean you can potentially break your plugin on spigot servers

[crude charm]

ic ic

I mean I'll be using a spigot fork anyway

that being purpur / paper

idk I just dont know what paper offers that spigot doesnt

[drowsy helm]

if its not a public plugin just use whatever fork you are using

paper has adventure, and a few other nifty api features

[crude charm]

alrighty

[mortal vortex]

Any idea whats up here?

shadowJar {
    relocate 'com.zaxxer.hikari', 'me.abbev.wardenCore.libs.hikari'
    relocate 'org.slf4j', 'me.abbev.wardenCore.libs.slf4j'
    relocate 'org.postgresql', 'me.abbev.wardenCore.libs.postgresql'
}

Yet:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed to get driver instance for jdbcUrl=jdbc:postgresql://XXXXXXXXXXXXXX:5432/mclink
        at WardenCore-1.0.jar/me.abbev.wardenCore.libs.hikari.util.DriverDataSource.<init>(DriverDataSource.java:113) ~[WardenCore-1.0.jar:?]
        at WardenCore-......

[dry hazel]

the jdbcUrl= shouldn't be there is my guess

[mortal vortex]

its not in the code

        config.setJdbcUrl(String.format("jdbc:postgresql://%s:%d/%s",
                getConfig().getString("database.host"),
                getConfig().getInt("database.port"),
                getConfig().getString("database.name")
        ));

[eternal oxide]

do you have postgresql shaded?

check in your actual jar

[blazing ocean]

you could use pgjdbc-ng, it's what I use

[mortal vortex]

Check above. It’s there.

[dry hazel]

that's only relocation

my second guess is that the service files are not getting relocated properly hence the driver is not discovered automatically

try specifying the driver class name manually

(org.postgresql.Driver)

[mortal vortex]

yeah that worked.

Thanks!

[lean river]

It isnt solving problem CreateWorld() is always on the main thread is anyone know how is it possible to solve that when i am creating a new world my server is freezing for a half of second? its important to me because i will have lots of worlds dynamically created

[chrome beacon]

Try setting keepSpawnInMemory to false in the world creator

[lean river]

i have it

[chrome beacon]

That's not the world creator

[lean river]

oh

wait

here?

[chrome beacon]

That's still not the world creator

[lean river]

here?

or here

[chrome beacon]

^ keep it like that

[lean river]

okay thanks i'll test it out

okay it doesnt change anything i guess i need to find some other way because i have a timer here and when someone is at game and another world is creating this timer is pausing for a half of second

[young knoll]

You need a fixed spawn location

Which means you need a custom chunk generator

[lean river]

okay i'll look into it and what do you think about just copying and pasting template of world when i want to create a new one for player?

[young knoll]

That’s much better

Since you avoid chunk generation entirely

[lean river]

because i literally want same seed for every player

so in my situation it can be copy paste

[cedar flint]

For my plugin I have custom items. When an item is generated with stats etc it get saved with an id in a yml file. When I give the item to the player I just give the id and a method creates the item with the lore etc.

Now I want to detect what id an item has when the player holds it. How can I do that?

The most obvious way is lore/nbt but serilization is a pain xd. Any other suggestions?

is the error shown in your ide or when you execute mvn package goal?

mvn clean install / mvn clean package

I am trying to check for the item the player is holding and used PlayerItemHeldEvent, but that checks if you move way from the item in your hotbar i noticed instead of when starting to hold te item. Is there some sort of way to check if the player starts holding the item?

ide doesn't let me run for some reason so I just do the mvn clean package

[sly topaz]

I don't think that's how you get the WE instance

you do WorldEdit.getInstance() as far I remember

[indigo orchid]

oh I was just following some tutorial

but its like outdated as heck

[sly topaz]

I mean, isn't that the same thing

you'd just use the PlayerItemHeldEvent#getNewSlot to get the item that the player started to hold

[indigo orchid]

so like where do I even put that? like this.worldedit = WorldEdit.getInstance()

[sly topaz]

sure, that works

you could also just use it directly whenever you need it

[indigo orchid]

well i don't want my plugin to load without it

[sly topaz]

you just have to put WE in your depend list on your plugin.yml for that

[indigo orchid]

lol

[indigo orchid]

o

[sly topaz]

well I got no idea now lol

perhaps you'll have better luck in the EngineHub server

perhaps you also have to depend on worldedit-core for it to work?

[indigo orchid]

bet, thanks tho I just thought ti was something to do w the pom.xml idk weird

[sly topaz]

not sure how modern WE API works tbh

[sly topaz]

try putting worldedit-core dependency as well as see if it stops complaining

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.sk89q.worldedit</groupId>
  <artifactId>worldedit-core</artifactId>
  <version>7.4.0-SNAPSHOT</version>

[indigo orchid]

ohh prob why

nvm xD

yup still does it

[sly topaz]

well I truly do not know now

[indigo orchid]

yeah, idk whats going on and I have never had to install it myself

[sly topaz]

try with a different version

[indigo orchid]

the server I work at already had it in the code base so idk how to do half these things, i just know how to fix bugs 😂 I have exp in java not mc

[sly topaz]

WorldGuard uses 7.3.0

[indigo orchid]

will it be okay if im using mc 1.21.4

well

[sly topaz]

WG supports 1.21.4 so I'd hope so

API doesn't really change that much anyway so it shouldn't be an issue

[indigo orchid]

so want me to use like 7.3.0

[sly topaz]

sure, give it a go

[worthy yarrow]

I would think WG works with 1.21x, WE does so

[indigo orchid]

actually

that worked

lmao

[sly topaz]

so it was just the version in the end, that's funny

[indigo orchid]

thanks a lot

[indigo orchid]

yeaah, kinda dumb but thats what makes coding fun, sometimes its the smallest thing 😭

[worthy yarrow]

when you forget a ; and the whole project doesn't compile 😦

[indigo orchid]

lol happened to me so many times

[tough umbra]

is the entity spawn event bugged or smthing

[eternal oxide]

No?

[worthy yarrow]

What's the issue?

[tough umbra]

So I have an event handler that creates a text display and makes the display a passanger to the entity that spawned. But anytime I join the server or I reload it, the server just has a masive crash.

The most recent crash log is 85.5 megabytes

[worthy yarrow]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[worthy yarrow]

send us errors

[eternal oxide]

stop listening to the spawn event to spawn a new entity

[worthy yarrow]

that too

[tough umbra]

ohh

[eternal oxide]

or, start ignoring YOUR spawned entites

[tough umbra]

ok

[worthy yarrow]

Spawn the entity then add a display

[tough umbra]

i just realized it

[worthy yarrow]

I'm pretty sure you'll have the entity object after spawning anyway so

[tough umbra]

yeah

[worthy yarrow]

you won't have to listen for the spawn

[tough umbra]

or just ignore if it is a text display

thx

i didn't think about that

@eternal oxide @worthy yarrow I fixed it thanks for the help

[worthy yarrow]

Elgarl is the smart one but no worries lol ❤️

[eternal oxide]

Sometimes 😛

[worthy yarrow]

well I'd have to see errors to be helpful in most cases

I feel like you've probably delt with enough weird spigot api stuff that you just know lol

[tough umbra]

yeah

i don't know how I didn't realize that

I am using the PlayerItemHeldEvent and want to detect what the player is holding in their main hand and in their offhand. How can I check for that because I cant seem to figure out how to integrate the getItemInMainHand with getNewSlow

[worldly ingot]

player.getInventory().getItem(event.getNewSlot()) will always be your main hand

If you want to check when a player swaps hand items, there's a separate event, PlayerSwapHandItemsEvent

Bear in mind also though that you might want to listen for InventoryClickEvent, PlayerPickupItemEvent, and PlayerDropItemEvent, for when items are moved around in the player's inventory. Depends on how in-depth you want to go into this

[cedar flint]

Alr thx

[tough umbra]

how can I stop mobs from being able to take damage, but you can still hit them and they take kb

[inner mulch]

just heal them when they take damage

[nova notch]

set the damage to 0

[tough umbra]

how you do that?

[inner mulch]

listening to the event

[tough umbra]

i meant how do I modify the damage amoutn

nvm i found it

[dawn plover]

Hello,
I am currently creating a spell casting plugin, and so your hotbar contains spells.
One of the ways to cast one is by selecting the slot of the ability, and it will cast it automatically.

   @EventHandler
    fun onItemHeld(event: PlayerItemHeldEvent) {
        val player = event.player

        val settings = PlayerContextSystem.getContext(player).settings
        if (!settings.quickCastEnabled) return

        if( player.inventory.heldItemSlot != Ability.Slot.PASSIVE.index)
            simulateClick(player)

        player.inventory.heldItemSlot = Ability.Slot.PASSIVE.index
    }

Basically, if you press 4 it goes to slot 4, then the spell in slot 4 is cast. and then it goes back to the passive slot
(we have to go back to the passive slot again, otherwise you cant cast 4 again since this event is only called when there is a change)
For a single press/cast, or a really short hold its all works fine.
Whenever you press 4 it imitialty goes back to its passive slot (8)
However, when you hold the button longer, then for some reason when you release it, it still goes with back and forth between 4 and 8 for the first second or so.

I think this has to do with the amount of requests that are being send by the client to move the selected slot to 4, while it constantly moves it back.
But i am not sure if this is true though

Anyways, i was hoping someone else would know a solution to this, since i looked on the internet and things like a debouncing or adding cooldowns for the slot reset, but it all doesnt work

(yes btw, its kotlin that i am writing, but i dont care if anyone gives a java response)

[chrome beacon]

What about the debouncing doesn't work?

[dawn plover]

that just completely breaks it, instead of constntly returning to the Passive slot, it now just sometimes returns to the passive slot, and sometimes not at all.

[chrome beacon]

Can't really recreate the issue on a localhost server 🤷‍♂️

Also I recommend you cancel the event so prevent the server from thinking the slot changed for a bit

[dawn plover]

wait, you dont have this problem?

[dawn plover]

yea i also thought that, but that does not fix the problem :p

[dawn plover]

what was your code?

if its the same, then i know its just something that really relies on the server performance (its a local server for me to, and my pc is bad af so it would make sence)

[chrome beacon]

Tested both event.setCancelled(true); and event.getPlayer().getInventory().setHeldItemSlot(0);

And that being the only code inside of the event listener

[dawn plover]

aha okay.

i wil ltry that, as the only line in the listener
I dont think it will make a difference since the other bits are not that expencive, but you will never know before you try

lol yea

@EventHandler
    fun onItemHeld(event: PlayerItemHeldEvent) {
      event.isCancelled = true
    }

This littaraly gives the exact same problem

[chrome beacon]

Are you testing locally?

[dawn plover]

yup

[chrome beacon]

what version are you on?

[dawn plover]

so it might be my bad copmuter

[dawn plover]

1.21.4

[chrome beacon]

Specs?

[dawn plover]

(plugin has api for 1.21.3 though, but that should not make a difference)

[dawn plover]

||ass||

XD

i have no idea where to look lol

oh i found this

[chrome beacon]

Yeah that's on the slower end

[dawn plover]

yea lol

But i feel like there should be a way to prevent this that it doesnt have to rely on server performance

or i will get back to this when i upgraded my pc. thats also an option

[dawn plover]

but yea really didnt have any problems right? when holding dow e.g. right click a long time on an item

since if that is the case. then i will just leave it as is right now, and come back to this feature in 2 weeks or so when my pc got an upgrade

[chrome beacon]

Yeah worked fine for me

Running a 5600G

[dawn plover]

i am to dumb to know what that means

but i guess bigger number is better

[chrome beacon]

Newer mid range CPU

Average CPU

[unborn hollow]

Are you able to have an armorstand ride the player?

[inner mulch]

yes

[unborn hollow]

how would you go about doing that

[inner mulch]

adding the armorstand to the player as a passenger

[unborn hollow]

kk ty

[inner mulch]

player.addPassenger(armorstand)

[tough umbra]

can you hide the heart particles when you kill a mob?

[unborn hollow]

this didn't work

[mortal vortex]

Was there an error, or it simply did not happen?

[unborn hollow]

let me drop the code real quick

it didn't happen

[mortal vortex]

Try doing this:

    @EventHandler
    public void onEntityDeath(EntityDeathEvent event) {
        // You can try to disable heart particles by temporarily setting the mob's health above 0
        if (event.getEntity().getLastDamageCause() != null) {
            event.getEntity().setHealth(0.5);
            event.getEntity().remove();
        }
    }

[unborn hollow]

        if (event.getRightClicked() instanceof ArmorStand armorstand) {
            if (!armorstand.getName().equals("Hat")) {
                return;
            }
            event.getPlayer().addPassenger(armorstand);
        }
    }```

@mortal vortex

[mortal vortex]

try removing the if block, to see if any armor stand will ride the player

[unborn hollow]

kk

[unborn hollow]

didn't work

[mortal vortex]

So you got rid of this?

            if (!armorstand.getName().equals("Hat")) {
                return;
            }

[mortal vortex]

onArmorStandLeftClick
InteractEntityEvent

Are you right clicking or left clicking?

[unborn hollow]

right clicking i misnamed it

should be "onArmorStandRightClick"

[unborn hollow]

and yes

[lime pulsar]

ItemType.Typed<M extends ItemMeta> how do you use this?

[river oracle]

you don't on spigot

if you're using paper you ask for support there

[young knoll]

Use PlayerInteractAtEntityEvent for armor stands

[unborn hollow]

Found that after a search, tyvm

[prime reef]

Can I override the version of Jackson that Spigot uses? It's breaking one of my plugins.

I use 2.15.1

and uh

[remote swallow]

Shade and relocate

[prime reef]

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 'com.fasterxml.jackson.core.StreamReadConstraints com.fasterxml.jackson.dataformat.yaml.YAMLParser.streamReadConstraints()

Instead of reading from the shaded version in my jar

it's reading from the one bundled in the spigot install from buildtools

in the /bundler/libraries directory, relative to wherever you ran buildtools

[remote swallow]

Shade and relocate

[prime reef]

what do you mean "relocate"

elaborate

[remote swallow]

Do you use maven

[prime reef]

yeah

i already have it shaded

[remote swallow]

Google maven shade plugin relocating

[prime reef]

oh it's a maven thing

god I fucking hate Java. thanks though

this seems like it should work lmao

[mortal vortex]

Gradle is the same?

You have to relocate

[prime reef]

it's a java dependency management thing*

alright this looks simple enough

[mortal vortex]

attaboy

[prime reef]

lmao

I actually enjoy raw Java, especially with the modern JDK features

it's the ecosystem surrounding it that makes my head hurt

[mortal vortex]

I hate JDK, i <3 java syntax,

I love Kotlin

[prime reef]

my one gripe with java - no pointers

[mortal vortex]

omfg i love kotlin

I love kotlin so much

[prime reef]

i was gonna try building something in Kotlin recently, is it that much nicer to work with?

[mortal vortex]

I worked on making an interpreted language in Kotlin

[mortal vortex]

Yessir

[lime pulsar]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/ItemType.Typed.html

its not a paper thing

[remote swallow]

It's not used anywhere yet

[lime pulsar]

looks like the only way to put things in a bundle

[river oracle]

please read the javadocs on spigot

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/ItemType.html

While this API is in a public interface, it is not intended for use by plugins until further notice. The purpose of these types is to make Material more maintenance friendly, but will in due time be the official replacement for the aforementioned enum. Entirely incompatible changes may occur. Do not use this API in plugins.

[river oracle]

completely incorrect

see https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/meta/BundleMeta.html

[echo basalt]

well shit

[river oracle]

if you're using paper API they fully implemented this API a few versions ago

idk why spigot hasn't yet its kinda insane

[mortal vortex]

What is wrong here?

server.scheduler.runTaskAsynchronously(this) {
            runBlocking {
                try {
                    databaseManager.initialize()
                    logger.info("Database initialized successfully!")
                } catch (e: Exception) {
                    logger.severe("Failed to initialize database: ${e.message}")
                    server.pluginManager.disablePlugin(this@Main)
                }
            }
        }

Overload resolution ambiguity between candidates:
fun runTaskAsynchronously(p0: @NotNull() Plugin, p1: @NotNull() Runnable): @NotNull() BukkitTask
fun runTaskAsynchronously(p0: @NotNull() Plugin, p1: @NotNull() Consumer<in BukkitTask!>): Unit

[river oracle]

Kotlin can't tell whether you're trying to use the BukkitTask or Runnable method oyu can fix it like so

server.scheduler.runTaskAsynchronously(this) Runnable {
            runBlocking {
                try {
                    databaseManager.initialize()
                    logger.info("Database initialized successfully!")
                } catch (e: Exception) {
                    logger.severe("Failed to initialize database: ${e.message}")
                    server.pluginManager.disablePlugin(this@Main)
                }
            }
        }

you could also use the BukkitTask one if you need that

[sullen marlin]

Turns out what's wrong is in fact kotlin

[river oracle]

^

idk what your run blocking DSL is, but you could maybe just insert that directly too

more importantly I'm confused why you're initializing your database asynchronously. I feel like it'd be smarter to block the server start until your DB connects, its okay to send blocking requests during startup

[remote swallow]

It's base kotlin or coroutines

[slim elbow]

Hi, when I create custom entity with nms to target any closest player it looks like it's deactivated and doesn't do anything for 5-15 seconds right until I try to interact with it or it will start attacking a player after being some time idle.

I am not sure why this is happening, but I believe this is not what is supposed to happen. It's a bit of a problem because a player can sometime run through entity and it won't do anything.

Here is my entity's class. Please forgive me for 1.12.2 nms

[autumn bramble]

can anyone help precisely control the spawn rate of amethyst?

[umbral flint]

When a plugin is disabled, is it true that all its listeners are unregistered before the onDisable method is called

[mortal vortex]

Theres a reason

I was getting an error:
Suspend function 'executeUpdate' should be called only from a coroutine or another suspend function

[mortal vortex]

Could this do?

override fun onEnable() {
        saveDefaultConfig()

        val config: FileConfiguration = this.config

        val databaseConfig = DatabaseConfig.fromBukkitConfig(config)

        try {
            databaseManager = DatabaseManager(this, databaseConfig)

            runBlocking {
                try {
                    databaseManager.initialize()
                    logger.info("Database initialized successfully!")
                } catch (e: DatabaseException.InitializationException) {
                    logger.severe("Failed to initialize database: ${e.message}")
                    server.pluginManager.disablePlugin(this@Main)
                }
            }
        } catch (e: Exception) {
            logger.severe("Failed to create DatabaseManager: ${e.message}")
            server.pluginManager.disablePlugin(this)
        }
    }

[river oracle]

I mean you don't even need that runningBlock not sure how that helps you here

[mortal vortex]

I do

without it, I get erros

[river oracle]

whatever your using for database is kinda silly then

imagine forcing someone to open a connection asynchronously, in practice sounds smart, but how often do you really need your connection to be added asynchronous

[umbral flint]

Is it possible to listen to a disable event in a listener (I made my own events in an attempt to do what I'm trying to do)

public final class KitListener implements Listener {
// ...
    @EventHandler
    public void onEnable(InvisPracticeEnableEvent event) {
        System.out.println(1);
        Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().stream()
                .map(Player::getUniqueId)
                .forEach(this::cachePlayerAndKits);
    }

    @EventHandler
    public void onDisable(InvisPracticeDisableEvent event) {
        Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().stream()
                .map(Player::getUniqueId)
                .forEach(this::saveAndClearCachedPlayerAndKits);
    }
// ...
}

[opaque scarab]

I’ll rephrase here… Is there any way to reliably control the speed of a player flying with an elytra, without any severe stuttering effect? (Deleted old question as it was badly phrased)

[river oracle]

if whatever attributes you're using don't work I'd assume no

pretty sure the client will predict movement

and then stutter back if the server readjusts

[opaque scarab]

Seems right! I’ve found ways to boost the speed of an elytra similar to rockets (rockets are server side velocity I think) but unfortunately I’m not seeing if there’s some way to get full control (also slowing down)… rip

[worldly ingot]

A disable event for what? Is InvisPractice a plugin? Are you maybe looking for PluginEnableEvent and PluginDisableEvent?

[umbral flint]

InvisPractice is my plugin, sorry I should have said that

[worldly ingot]

If it's the current plugin, then is there a reason you're not using your onEnable()/onDisable() methods in JavaPlugin

[umbral flint]

Yeah I want to keep the logic inside that listener

[worldly ingot]

I mean you could keep the logic in that class if you want, and just call some methods

I don't think you'll ever receive the enable/disable events for your own plugin

[umbral flint]

Like having a field then calling methods on it?

[worldly ingot]

Exactly that, yes

public class MyPlugin extends JavaPlugin {

    private final KitListener kitListener;

    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        this.kitListener = new KitListener();
        Bukkit.getPluginManager().registerEvents(kitListener, this);
        this.kitListener.onPluginEnable();
    }

    @Override
    public void onDisable() {
        this.kitListener.onPluginDisable();
    }

}

[umbral flint]

Hm ok

[worldly ingot]

Pretend I write all my code correctly lol, you get the idea

[umbral flint]

Yeah I do

thanks

[worldly ingot]

\o/

so confused about how ACF args work

[ancient plank]

lol

[prime reef]

So the relocate thing worked for the core plugin, but now building against that plugin is ass, because I have code that extends some methods in my core plugin

tl;dr I was using Jackson in my core library, and now Spigot bundles it in, except I'm using a later version, so some code breaks when it actually executes on the server

someone suggested I use the relocate feature in the maven-shade plugin, so I did, but that ensures unique bytecode generates for the relocated shaded dependency...so the plugin I had building against that core library, which extends a couple of serialization modules to serialize/deserialize things specific to that plugin, now won't build either unless I go and explicitly use all the shaded bits lol

It's doable it's just

hideous

Aight nvm this is utter hell

This would work fine if I were not relocating in a library but

@sullen marlin Sorry for the ping, but why are you guys using Jackson 2.13.4 specifically?

I wouldn't ping but there's a security flaw in older versions

and uh, this is one of them

[wet breach]

what security flaw?

[river oracle]

Blame mojang

We have it transistively

If you think the security bug is insane enough make a bug report to them please

Though most of those "security vulnerabilities" aren't really severe and can be ignored

[prime reef]

there's a bug in the XML parser that can break shit

realistically speaking it's probably not a big deal for Spigot, but I have XML parsing as part of this library

yeahh this one's probably not severe enough to matter if I'm honest

[wet breach]

I doubt you are using the feature in question

[prime reef]

sounds about right, where I work we're using libraries that are like 8+ years behind on updates

[wet breach]

that would affect you

[prime reef]

https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-3f7h-mf4q-vrm4

[wet breach]

This vulnerability is only exploitable when the non-default UNWRAP_SINGLE_VALUE_ARRAYS feature is enabled.

[river oracle]

Tbh businesses always be like that

[wet breach]

if you are not using that you are fine

[prime reef]

ah I missed that

okay nvm, thanks

[prime reef]

in our case it's because something in our code completely broke after they updated it, because their update was designed for people to not optimize SIMD instructions

which actually broke pre-optimized SIMD instructions

but uh. now we can't get support for shit anymore lol

[wet breach]

lol

[prime reef]

I have a set of changes designed to update + fix those issues but they never got approved 💀

[wet breach]

that sucks

[prime reef]

mm red tape

[river oracle]

Tbh no clue what SIMD is looked it up looks like "fun" to implement

[wet breach]

I don't use that library but I know the feeling of having a pr denied for no logical reasoning or something arbitrary

[prime reef]

It's fun in the same way writing ASM is fun

right up until it stops working

which in the case of ASM is on first launch

[wet breach]

Single instruction multiple data

[river oracle]

Yeah I saw it's used in GPUs largely sounds fun low level fuckery

[prime reef]

there's a lot of "this isn't worth the time" where I work even though sometimes our tools can take literal hours to run

Considering we have 10k+ employees, and many of them use these tools, we lose collective months to waiting on tools to run every year...but updating them so that we can do work to make them run faster isn't worth the time? corporate brainrot tbh

[wet breach]

I once submitted a pr for lockette when hoppers came out. Lockette was vulnerable against the hoppers. I submitted a pr for it, admitted it wasn't super optimal, but it got denied

[prime reef]

IME it's largely CPU-side but supported on some modern GPU architectures, as a rule if you can GPU accelerate that's still gonna be faster but SIMD is a chunky speedup for CPU-bound code if you can format your data to run with it

[wet breach]

and it annoyed me that they would rather let a plugin be vulnerable to something all because of a small performance hit and then release a proper fix later

[prime reef]

fortunately where I work we don't really do code quality checks on v0s or hotfixes

but we also don't clean up the code later either, so the entire codebase is just millions of lines of duct tape

there are two extremes

[wet breach]

lol

well I just wanted to have a fix for the thousands that used that plugin

[prime reef]

I mean there's basic code quality like "don't make a HUGE mess" but it's like wiping dust off your desk and then not vacuuming it off the floor afterward

[wet breach]

they can make a proper fix later XD

[prime reef]

i daresay the hoppers themselves were causing more perf hits than whatever your PR did

hoppers are notoriously laggy

[wet breach]

indeed

[prime reef]

I think some modified servers do something about them, but Spigot tends to stick close to vanilla

not that there's anything inherently wrong with that, I stick to Spigot for that reason lmao

[wet breach]

my pr simply would use movement check on the hopper carts and since you could make the cart slide off the rail, even checked blocks around

and then for building it just checked if the player matched the lock

[prime reef]

is Lockette something to do with being able to lock chests?

[wet breach]

yes, it uses a sign and no DB

[prime reef]

i'm guessing hoppers could bypass those locks

that's extremely funny actually

ew @ the sign though

[wet breach]

and yes hoppers could bypass the locks because it was new functionality since mojang never had items empty out of a chest before

[prime reef]

I mean it definitely makes sense why that would happen

but that is also pretty annoying for anyone playing on a server running that plugin

[wet breach]

if they didn't know about it

anyways, later versions did get a fix, but like they weren't super quick about it

[prime reef]

unfortunately there's always the one player that will try anything to make other people sad lol

[wet breach]

just annoyed me of their reasoning was all and that they would much rather deny a pr fix then to accept one that works but would need fixing

well fixing if it is determined it wasn't to par in terms of performance etc

[prime reef]

Speaking of fixing

...how the hell do I explicitly use Jackson 2.15.1 in a plugin that depends on a library that has to use relocated code?

This code's in the library, so downgrading is...not an option

[prime reef]

kinda feel like manually checking a sign every time someone clicks on a chest would be a more important fix lmao

[blazing ocean]

Please use mccoroutine

And exposed

[mortal vortex]

can Exposed be used with Postgres?

[blazing ocean]

Yeap

using pgjdbcng

just as an fyi, those try/catches are somewhat redundant as your plugin will disable anyway if you have a exception in your initialiser

[lilac dagger]

I assume the library is a separated plugin?

If you can depend on it then you can use build to reshade it

This is how I do it for my arcade addons

The game engine is reshaded in arcade and the add-ons depend on the game engine/arcade that are unshaded to the add-on module

So I apply another shade in the add-on to fix the difference

[fading drift]

1.8 how do I get the data from these skulls and then set the data

[wet breach]

which data are you wanting? The skin?

[fading drift]

yeah but I dont know the name of the skin and skull.getOwner is null

and idk what that base64 data is when you lookup player skulls

[wet breach]

it should be skullmeta where you should be able to get the owner

[wet breach]

the base64 data is just their skin texture

as long as you know the name of the player you can obtain that data yourself manually

and that data just allows servers and clients to download the texture

[fading drift]

yeah skullmeta apparantly has the owner set to nothing

maybe I'm tripping

sorry skullmeta is item based

I need block info

skull.getOwner is null but hasOwner returns true

I figured it out

[wet breach]

glad you figured it out

[fading drift]

had to use reflection to set textures property

and also set owner to some random name

[lilac dagger]

There's the player profile api you can use

[wet breach]

they are using 1.8

[lapis widget]

I don't know if I should be proud of my self for this but oh well
couldn't figure out why nms was being a pain

[lilac dagger]

But i thought we don't support 1.8 anymore

[wet breach]

I felt like being nice and it was for something minor really lol

[lilac dagger]

The package approach does not work on paper BTW

[lapis widget]

Anyone have a better idea for what I'm trying to acomplish

[lapis widget]

It did not want to work on either

[lilac dagger]

Since you're on 1.8 it means you have to get the profile's skin property

Ah wait

[lapis widget]

wrong reply hehe

[lilac dagger]

Dif person

[lapis widget]

Yep yep yep

[lilac dagger]

Create a version module where you keep the interfaces

And a module for each version

@lapis widget

[lapis widget]

Ah I see

[lapis widget]

Mine is a bit bigger project

[blazing ocean]

1.8 smh

[lilac dagger]

isn't it time consuming keeping compat for so many versions?

[blazing ocean]

probably

[lapis widget]

I don't usually add features to the calculation code
Just visual updates for the server owners to use

[lilac dagger]

so then it's this that has to be updated

[lapis widget]

Yep

its only broken on 1.21 thank god (the default method)

[lilac dagger]

why is that?

[radiant plaza]

help me Hello, who can help me with something, that is, create a menu with a kit for my paper server with the DeluxeMenus plugin, I hope you can help me, give me a config for a fine menu with a kit in private or even here in general

[lapis widget]

if I use getNMSVersion then I either get a blank string or craftbukkit as output when debugging

[lilac dagger]

have you tried making a kit yourself?

[lilac dagger]

as i said, paper doesn't have the version in the package anymore

[lapis widget]

CommandExecutor to open up a inventory on command with arguments of kit name to create a kit
InventoryClickEvent select kit, stop taking items from inventory
InventoryDragEvent stop dragging of items out of inventory
InventoryCloseEvent save input of inventory in a config
CommandExecutor with command name of kits to show kits

[radiant plaza]

Yes, I tried, but it's hard for me and I can't

[lilac dagger]

he asks for help with deluxe menu

[lapis widget]

oops lol

[lilac dagger]

it really isn't, keep trying

[lapis widget]

Maybe chatgpt can help

[lilac dagger]

chat gpt doesn't know what to do in this case

i don't think it ever saw a deluxe menu config

erm

Im not gonna vouch for accuracy but it did provide me with a answer

[lilac dagger]

https://wiki.helpch.at/helpchat-plugins/deluxemenus/options-and-configurations/gui i still suggest this

it doesn't work for me

[radiant plaza]

Hello, who can help me with the DeluxeMenus plugin, that is, give yourself a config with a Server Information menu

[lilac dagger]

you should try looking into the wiki above

[lapis widget]

hehe you gotta prompt it a bit better I think xd

[blazing ocean]

proompting moment

🎆

[pseudo hazel]

you should let the prompting be done by actual prompt engineers, its a whole field of work you see

so next time, hire prompt emgineers to gpt you the answer instead of a dev that can do it for you

[sly topaz]

all you have to do is provide it the necessary info to build up the structure

the result will be as good as the prompt you give it

[sly topaz]

hiring a dev to write a yaml file is crazy tho

[pseudo hazel]

I mean

if you have the money but not the time

thats how the world works

[sly topaz]

deluxemenus configuration format seems pretty straightforward honestly:

Is there any way to teleport entities with passengers, or is that still not possible? Dismounting,teleporting and then mounting again does teleport, but its buggy when done every tick.

[inner mulch]

im pretty sure that entities dont lose their passengers when teleporting

or am i wrong?

[marsh hawk]

Huh, that would be weird. When I tried it out, teleport wouldnt do anything unless I dismounted the passengers.

[inner mulch]

what entity are you teleporting?

[eternal oxide]

cant tp with passenger

[marsh hawk]

A cow

[marsh hawk]

And there is no other workaround?

[inner mulch]

i only ever tried players

thats probably why it worked

[blazing ocean]

Not on spigot

[kind hatch]

One day it will be

[marsh hawk]

Whats the alternative?

[blazing ocean]

Paper has teleport flags for that

[marsh hawk]

And what does it do? Is it just dismount/mounting but more convenient because its its own function, or something completely different?

[blazing ocean]

They have a seperate function for teleporting with flags, one of them is for allowing passengers. On spigot, the function just returns false when called with passengers mounted

[kind hatch]

Isn't there an open PR to fix that issue?

[blazing ocean]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[kind hatch]

Yea, looks like there is. https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/bukkit/pull-requests/924/overview
Wonder what's holding it up if anything.

[blazing ocean]

Can't view it :p
Gonna have to sell my soul to daddy md_5 first

[sly topaz]

you haven't signed the CLA yet? That's crazy

[blazing ocean]

I've never needed it

[sly topaz]

it's fun to look at what the status of some PRs are from time to time

[sly topaz]

most likely the contributor just gave up on it after trying to come up with a good way to fix the linked issue

[kind hatch]

:sadge:

Would be cool to see it revived

[glossy laurel]

how do I make creeper spawn eggs with a specific nbt tag get ignited on spawn

[young knoll]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/inventory/meta/SpawnEggMeta.html#setSpawnedEntity(org.bukkit.entity.EntitySnapshot)

[glossy laurel]

Thanks. Also, how do I prime a tnt? Set it to air and spawn a primed one?

[young knoll]

Sure

[glossy laurel]

is there a better way?

[young knoll]

Not that I know of

[glossy laurel]

[glossy laurel]

How do I like get a block data of air or something

[slender elbow]

Material.AIR.createBlockData or something

[inner mulch]

^

[glossy laurel]

ah, alr

How do I create an entity snapshot without an actual entity? I want something like EntityType + a few methods applied to it

[young knoll]

World.createEntity

[glossy laurel]

I don't think that's a method

[worthy yarrow]

It is

[slender elbow]

it's in RegionAccessor

which World implements

[glossy laurel]

oh

righ

t

[slender elbow]

createEntity + Entity#createSnapshot

[glossy laurel]

yeah alr

Quick question, what's the difference between BlockDataMeta and BlockStateMeta

[slender elbow]

you're not gonna believe this

one holds a BlockData and the other holds a BlockState

[glossy laurel]

crazy

[slender elbow]

ikr

[worthy yarrow]

He’s probably asking what’s the difference between state and meta

[glossy laurel]

actually thats a good question too

ik what state is

not what meta is tho
