is it? interesting wonder why there is even a number 2 if that is the case and not just the one 🤔

#

been a long time since I actually looked at the sources of both

well, two (2) is greater than one (1), therefore it's better

just use worldedit api to paste shit 💪

Isn't that what he's having issues with

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 2:56 PM

from what i understand he's placing the blocks manually but suppressing light updates

#

if he were using worldedit i would assume he would also be using the worldedit relighter

Hmm that's a thing huh?

#

Interesting

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 2:57 PM

or i don't know if suppressing light updates and then doing relighting after the fact is a fastasyncworldedit thing; if it is, i change my suggestion to just use fawe api to paste shit 💪

I've never liked WE or FAWE's api

another option is to rewrite it as a world generator but that's probably not any easier

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 3:40 PM

"present" means not-null

in context of optionals

how can world be null in a location?

worthy yarrow Feb 17, 2025, 3:47 PM

#

Because world is nullable in Location

#

iirc

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 3:47 PM

#

you created/loaded the Location object before the world was loaded

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 3:47 PM

#

can i just tell it 'hey that cant be the case here'

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 3:47 PM

#

i think he's talking about the static null check warning

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 3:47 PM

#

bc this runs in one tick and grabs the location from a loaded block

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 3:47 PM

#

wrap it in Objects.requireNonNull()

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 3:48 PM

#

no

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 3:48 PM

#

this indicates that you expect it never to be null, and it never will be, because you're getting it from a block which must have a world

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 3:48 PM

#

requireNonNull just makes teh error explode sooner

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 3:48 PM

#

yes, that's the goal

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 3:48 PM

no, his goal is to HAVE a world

worthy yarrow Feb 17, 2025, 3:48 PM

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 3:48 PM

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 3:48 PM

#

ah

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 3:48 PM

#

im asking if i can tell it that the warning / null check here is unnecessary

grim hound Feb 17, 2025, 3:49 PM

#

eternal oxide requireNonNull just makes teh error explode sooner

it really doesn't do anything

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 3:49 PM

#

coz blockbreakevent kinda sorta needs a world to happen in

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 3:49 PM

#

My mistake, I thought he was getting a null on creation

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 3:49 PM

#

that'd be requirenonnull

#

largely a semantic difference but putting requirenonnull there indicates that you have acknowledged that the method is nullable and expect it never to be not null still, and for it to be null there is an error elsewhere

#

it won't actually do anything since the following method call would NPE instantly anyway

grim hound Feb 17, 2025, 3:50 PM

#

smoky oak what the

"Disable inspection"

#

np 👍

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 3:51 PM

requireNot NUll will simply stop your IDE complaining about the possible NPE. It won;t fix anything else

I'd like to see a world unload async while im processing an event :kekw:

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 3:51 PM

#

the ide complaining about it is it going "hey this could be null be sure to check your logic is right"

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 3:52 PM

#

yep

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 3:52 PM

requirenonnull is you answering "yeah trust me bro"

grim hound Feb 17, 2025, 3:52 PM

Disable

#

inspection

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 3:52 PM

which means other developers looking at the same code (or god forbid you yourself 6 months later) can see that play out and be fairly confident in that you did indeed doublecheck the logic there

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 3:53 PM

ok back to actual debugging, how do i shove blockdata into itemstack?

stack.setData(block.getState().getBlockData()); results in LEGACY_AIR

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 3:53 PM

you don;t have an API version set then?

thank you very much

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 5:11 PM

#

the way we do it at work is to pre-gen a couple rooms around the starting room

#

and do A* pathfinding to figure out the next best room to generate

torn shuttle Feb 17, 2025, 5:11 PM

#

that's the way I was doing it for the really large gens

#

except for your cringe generation method

#

but streaming-wise

#

like when dealing with closer to 1bil blocks obviously this won't do it

#

but for 16 mil?

#

it's an easy pog

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 5:12 PM

#

any blocks far enough can get pasted with the "unsafe" methods because players aren't gonna see them

#

anything closer is done the same way + with a sendBlockChange packet or whatever

torn shuttle Feb 17, 2025, 5:12 PM

#

yeah that's basically my plan for the bigger gens when I get around to them

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 5:12 PM

#

lowers queue times to ~3 seconds in my case

torn shuttle Feb 17, 2025, 5:13 PM

#

but it will require a different streaming strategy anyway because no one is going to have enough ram for this

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 5:13 PM

#

can probably get a lot faster if we had a cpu that wasn't 10 years old

torn shuttle Feb 17, 2025, 5:13 PM

#

wfc is naturally slower if you're doing 16x modules

#

which to be clear is fine by me

#

it has a lot of really interesting advantages

#

it's just not made to be created live

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 5:14 PM

#

L

torn shuttle Feb 17, 2025, 5:14 PM

#

if I get around to making those big gens they're not going to be disposable anyway

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 5:14 PM

#

at some point just have a dedicated server to pre-gen these

torn shuttle Feb 17, 2025, 5:14 PM

#

I considered distributing maps instead of the tech

#

makes sense for the city-sized ones

#

if you have a city that is 100k blocks in radius you probably would rather download a map since odds are it's going to take a really, really long time to generate, if you even have the hardware for it

#

with wfc it wouldn't be surprising to see a generation time that might span into weeks at that point

#

especially if you're having to store info into storage instead of memory due to the size

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:21 PM

#

ok how the hell do i change a block's block state

#

bc this doesnt work

#

        ChiseledBookshelf shelf = (ChiseledBookshelf) block.getState();
        shelf.setBlockData(Bukkit.createBlockData(Material.CHISELED_BOOKSHELF));
        shelf.update();

#

it keeps the blockstate it had b4

slender elbow Feb 17, 2025, 5:22 PM

#

i mean, "change" in what way?

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:22 PM

#

i ran the above codde and well the block kept this

#

it keeps meta it shouldnt have

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 5:23 PM

#

meta is part of the state not the data

slender elbow Feb 17, 2025, 5:23 PM

#

I mean yeah that code doesn't really change anything apart from the block state properties you can see in the f3 screen

#

see the specific methods in the state's subclass

rough ibex Feb 17, 2025, 5:24 PM

#

Blockstate ≠ blockdata

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:24 PM

#

is this a reference? coz for itemstack its not

#

but theres no method to set it back

#

i cant replace it with a new meta if i only get a reference

#

great no method to create a new meta object in the first place

#

guess i have to manually unset everything

slender elbow Feb 17, 2025, 5:28 PM

#

what are you talking about

#

the thing has an inventory, you modify the inventory however you please, and then call .update on it

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:30 PM

#

well. block.update() does nothing except apparantly block the visual update caused by re-setting the contents manually.
it keeps the metadata

#

i stg where do blocks store their metadata

slender elbow Feb 17, 2025, 5:33 PM

#

in the blockstate

#

in which you modify the inventory

#

and after modifying the inventory, which you did not do in the provided code, you call update

#

but simply changing the blockdata will not change the blockstate, and thus the inventory

#

if you don't change the inventory, the inventory won't be changed

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:35 PM

#

its not the inventory im trying to change

#

im trying to make it so that the meta is cleared

#

which calling update doesnt do, i tried

#

it keeps the glint override

smoky anchor Feb 17, 2025, 5:36 PM

#

What glint, bookshelf has no glint

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:37 PM

#

im setting it to have the enchantment glint if it contains enchanted books

#

issue: that glint stays

#

permanently

smoky anchor Feb 17, 2025, 5:37 PM

#

When do you want it removed ?

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 5:37 PM

#

oh god I just realized husktowns does event handlers in a mega cursed way

smoky anchor Feb 17, 2025, 5:37 PM

#

that may be a silly question

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 5:37 PM

#

they make the event handler an interface and then they just have a big class that implements all of them

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:38 PM

#

smoky anchor When do you want it removed ?

when the block's placed

#

i want that after placing down it is in a state that could've been achieved naturally

smoky anchor Feb 17, 2025, 5:38 PM

#

Ok, how are you making it have glint. Are you using the data component ?

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:39 PM

#

            meta.setEnchantmentGlintOverride(true);```
when the item is created; this meta is set onto the itemstack

smoky anchor Feb 17, 2025, 5:39 PM

#

so yes, gimme a sec

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:42 PM

#

ok mojank levels of code here

block.setType(Material.AIR);
block.setType(Material.CHISELED_BOOKSHELF);

#

that fixes it

If Spigot can somehow access the components field, you should clear it there.

smoky anchor If Spigot can somehow access the `components` field, you should clear it there.

there are some component markers in the api but they are all part of inventory meta

#

which i have 0 clue how to get

smoky anchor Feb 17, 2025, 5:45 PM

#

When you mine it, do you get the item with glint back ?
'cause I don't

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:45 PM

#

only bc i copy the block state to preserve the books

#

im trying to make shulkers but books

smoky anchor Feb 17, 2025, 5:47 PM

#

Me confusion
Are you trying to make it so when you mine the bookshelf it retains the books ?

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:47 PM

#

yep

smoky anchor Feb 17, 2025, 5:47 PM

#

Can you show the code responsible for retaining the books ?

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:47 PM

works too. but of course minecrafts code is so bloody jank that 2/3rds of my code are 'ok how do i get around THIS bug'

#

        Objects.requireNonNull(blockLocation.getWorld()).dropItemNaturally(blockLocation, stack);
        event.setDropItems(false);
    }

(the inventory clear is because the books arent part... of the... block break event drops.)

smoky anchor Feb 17, 2025, 5:54 PM

Oh-
I see what you're doing
So uhhh
try

if(shelf.getInventory().contains(Material.ENCHANTED_BOOK))
    meta.setEnchantmentGlintOverride(true);
else
    meta.setEnchantmentGlintOverride(null);

Since you're copying the components into the item (I think) you have to reset the flag as well.

blazing ocean Feb 17, 2025, 5:54 PM

#

why not just set it to false

smoky anchor Feb 17, 2025, 5:54 PM

#

'cause reasons

#

null will remove the component itself which is closer to the default state of that item

#

I must say, that I despise the fact that vanilla block states are called spigot block data. I understand the reason but it's just so damn annoying.

the issue is that this would keep the data in the chiseled bookshelf

Yeah I'm lost, sorry

smoky oak Feb 17, 2025, 5:58 PM

#

i mean i have a workaround

#

i can just do it properly once spigot has access to components

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 5:58 PM

null is the default while false can override, for example, enchanted books or items with enchantments

grim hound Is World::getBlockAt thread-safe?

not only is it thread safe but it is essentially just a new CraftBlock(world,x,y,z) constructor call; it's pure and doesn't as much as cause the chunk to be loaded

#

what isn't thread safe is calling methods on Block that'd access the world, e.g. getType

xd

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 7:01 PM

#

it depends from method to method but most of the world accessing methods on Block just transparently schedule a sync task to do the call on the main thread and then have your thread blocking for it

slender elbow Feb 17, 2025, 7:56 PM

you'd use a Handler or whatever they call it, but even then there's nothing wrong with using the move event, they themselves use the move event to check for crossing region boundaries, just don't check on every call, but on block change

pure dagger like what if player movés out while reloading or if just someone wants to delete...

cleanup things in onDisable such that nothing will go catastrophically wrong for the player even if onEnable is never called again

#

solves the issue for both reloading and uninstalling the plugin

#

an example case of not doing this is one custom food plugin i forget the name of, which would adjust a player's max health based on the diversity of their diet

#

uninstalling the plugin would leave the player permanently stuck at a nonstandard max health, and you'd either need to fix it with a nbt editor on a per-player basis or write a plugin to do it in bulk

right

#

i have an idea

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 8:48 PM

Any possiblity to check if an EntityType is considered a HumanEntity ?

Problem is HumanEntity is for LivingEntity. How can I check the same for just EntityType ?

sullen marlin Feb 17, 2025, 8:49 PM

#

? getType() or whatever

chrome beacon Feb 17, 2025, 8:51 PM

#

getType == PLAYER ?

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 8:51 PM

#

.getEntityClass().isAssignableFrom() ?

#

Would work right?

chrome beacon Feb 17, 2025, 8:51 PM

#

So you're not talking about the EntityType enum

#

but the entity class

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 8:51 PM

#

No I am not

#

EntityType is enum

#

boolean isHuman = type.getEntityClass().isAssignableFrom(HumanEntity.class);

#

Should work right?

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 8:53 PM

#

You can not tell if a LivingEntity is a HumanEntity just from the enum

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 8:53 PM

#

hmm

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 8:53 PM

#

HumanEntity are Players only

chrome beacon Feb 17, 2025, 8:53 PM

#

Well a player would be a human entity

chrome beacon Feb 17, 2025, 8:53 PM

#

chrome beacon getType == PLAYER ?

so this

#

would work

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 8:53 PM

#

not if he only has teh type

chrome beacon Feb 17, 2025, 8:53 PM

#

replace getType with the type variable

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 8:54 PM

#

he needs an actual Entity

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 8:54 PM

#

Let me maybe elaborate a bit further with a different use case :

#

   @Override
    public void applyToEntity(LivingEntity livingEntity, Object value) throws MobPropertySetException {

        this.validateInteger(value);
        int size = (Integer) value;

        if(livingEntity instanceof Slime){
            Slime slime = (Slime) livingEntity;
            slime.setSize(size);
            return;
        }

        if(livingEntity instanceof Phantom){
            Phantom phantom = (Phantom) livingEntity;
            phantom.setSize(size);
            return;
        }
        throw new MobPropertySetException("Size property is not applicable for " + livingEntity.getType());
    }

#

well actually not a great example either -_-

#

Because size is hardcoded on those classes

chrome beacon Feb 17, 2025, 8:55 PM

#

Yeah I have no idea what you're trying to do

#

nor what the issue is

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 8:56 PM

#

so I have an attribute for setting the hand. But that belongs to a HumanEntity

#

I am trying to validate if the entity would be eligable for setting the hand in the first place

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 8:57 PM

#

instanceof HumanEntity

chrome beacon Feb 17, 2025, 8:57 PM

#

^^

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 8:57 PM

#

but it's EntityType :/

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 8:57 PM

#

or are you saying you want to validate whether an EntityType would be eligible for setting the hand

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 8:57 PM

#

HumanEntity would be in case I do have a LivingEntity

chrome beacon Feb 17, 2025, 8:57 PM

#

Then check EntityType == Player

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 8:57 PM

#

mfw ecs

chrome beacon Feb 17, 2025, 8:57 PM

#

Because player is the only human entity

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 8:58 PM

#

Alright

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 8:58 PM

#

no, LivingEntity is not always a HumanEntity

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 8:58 PM

#

Okay, I'll use that

#

I know

#

that's not what I meant

#

Checking if type = Player would be fine

#

As long as it results in the same for for example a zombie

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 8:58 PM

#

if you are validating an EntityType (your code fragment shows you validating an entity instance, which is different) the assignableFrom method you mentioned before is the go-to

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 8:59 PM

#

lethal knoll ```java boolean isHuman = type.getEntityClass().isAssignableFrom(HumanEntity.cla...

like this?

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 8:59 PM

#

yes

#

but again your example shows you validating an instance, not a type

#

and for that you use instanceof

echo basalt Feb 17, 2025, 9:00 PM

#

generic types go brr

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:00 PM

#

this

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:01 PM

#

That cannot be right? I would have to hard code all the different mob types that are able to have items

#

That doesn't sound quite right

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:01 PM

#

what

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 9:01 PM

#

Why are you messing around with type at all?

#

You have an INSTANCE

#

use it

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:02 PM

#

That is not true

#

I do not have an instance in this case

#

I only got the type

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 9:02 PM

#

in your example you did

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:02 PM

#

It was an alternative :/ and there I already use instanceof

#

But alright

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 9:02 PM

#

if you ONLY have the type and its a LivingEntity its impossible to tell if the instance would be a HumanEntity

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:02 PM

#

then the assignablefrom is the way to go

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:03 PM

#

Thanks

#

I'll use AssignableFrom

#

Okay I don't know why, but that doesn't work

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:05 PM

#

try doing it the other way around

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:05 PM

#

        return HumanEntity.class.isAssignableFrom(bloodmoonMob.getType().getEntityType().getEntityClass());

#

I did

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 9:05 PM

#

a Mob is NOT a HumanEntity

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:06 PM

#

i don't think setHand does what you think it does

#

setHand is for setting the primary hand on a player/human entity

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:06 PM

#

what does this have to do wit hthe set hand?

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:06 PM

#

you are trying to set the item held in the hand of the mob

chrome beacon Feb 17, 2025, 9:06 PM

#

Is bloodmoonMob a player?

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:06 PM

#

no

chrome beacon Feb 17, 2025, 9:06 PM

#

Then it won't be a human entity

#

That statement will always be false

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 9:06 PM

#

then as I and others have been telling you, your code will not work

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:07 PM

#

All that is relevant is that the .getType() of bloodmoon mob returns EntityType

#

As it's a data object

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:07 PM

#

which entitytype does it return

eternal oxide Feb 17, 2025, 9:07 PM

#

and it will NEVER be a HumanEntity

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:07 PM

#

ZOMBIE

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:07 PM

#

that is not a player nor a human entity

#

the if clause will evaluate to false

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:07 PM

#

hmm

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:07 PM

#

again i think you are trying to set the item held by the mob

#

setHand isn't what you want to call

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:08 PM

#

To be very very specific, I got the onCommand, it's passing in as a first parameter the EntityType

#

then it's supposed to only fetch the controllers for those properties who are applicable for the given type

#

so for example:

#

explosionRadius will only show for Creeper

#

And in this case:

#

I want to only show the controller when the Entity representing the EntityType would have the method.getInventory().setItemInMainHand

#

you understand my point

#

    @Override
    public void applyToEntity(LivingEntity livingEntity, Object value) throws MobPropertySetException {
        HumanEntity humanEntity = (HumanEntity) livingEntity;
        String item = (String) value;

        BloodmoonItem bloodmoonItem = itemService.getItem(item).orElse(null);
        if(bloodmoonItem == null){
            throw new MobPropertySetException("Item with name " + item + " does not exist!");
        }

        humanEntity.getInventory().setItemInMainHand(bloodmoonItem.getItem());
    }

#

You can ignore this

#

but it gives better insights

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:10 PM

#

okay, now we know what you want to do and can tell you that HumanEntity has nothing to do with it

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:10 PM

#

Alright

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:10 PM

#

inventories are not limited to players

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:10 PM

#

I really thought the method came from this

#

But okay, apologies in that case

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

every LivingEntity has equipment

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

Alright

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

and equipment is what determines what's in the hand

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

Yes understood

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

but afaik there is no good way of telling whether that equipment will render

#

e.g. a chicken can have equipment but it's not going to physically appear on the mob

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

Okay, clear, so it won't cause any issues because they are living entities

#

in other words

#

in my case I just return true

#

or I would need explicit checks

#

for EntityType

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:12 PM

#

or maybe getEquipment returns null for entities that can't display any equipment

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:12 PM

#

hmm, yeah

#

let me check

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:12 PM

#

don't know, try it and see

#

but i'd guess that you'll end up hardcoding a set of entitytypes that do support equipment

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:14 PM

#

Yeah could also be

#

Well I actually don't have to fetch the inventory contents in this case

#

so as long as setting it for any living entity is not causing an issue, I should be fine

#

thanks for the help

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:16 PM

#

the issue is that you can't set an equipped item for an entity that has no equipment

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:16 PM

#

No okay, but it won't throw an error error right? I mean, it will just not have any effect

#

for example

#

you can try to give a creeper a sword

#

it will work, but it won't wear any

#

and there will be no use of the item

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:17 PM

#

lethal knoll No okay, but it won't throw an error error right? I mean, it will just not have ...

it will if getEquipment returns null

#

because then trying to set the held item on that equipment is a NPE

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:17 PM

#

Yes ofcourse, I understand

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:18 PM

#

but after a quick trip to nms town, it looks like there's a method on LivingEntity that determines which slots it can use

#

LivingEntity::canUseEquipmentSlot

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:18 PM

#

notNull

#

so should be fine

#

aaah

#

that is interesting!

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:18 PM

#

livingentity::getequipment is nullable

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:19 PM

#

thorn isle LivingEntity::canUseEquipmentSlot

while this is a method on the entity class itself, not entity type, the nms implementation always only returns true or false regardless of the data on that instance; i.e. it depends solely on the class

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:19 PM

#

canUseEquipmentSlot is not a thing on spigot api though

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:19 PM

#

so what you can do is loop through every entity type at startup, instantiate one of each, and check which equipment slot they can use

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:19 PM

#

And if inventory can be null, all fine, then I just do a check before trying to access it

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 9:20 PM

#

kind of sort of defeats the point of the whole ecs business but sure, that'll work

lethal knoll Feb 17, 2025, 9:20 PM

#

hmm, not sure if that is worth it for this use case

#

but I understand you

#

Yes ofcourse, but if there is no proper way to check this using the API, you will always end up with dirty work arounds :p

#

so either I will hardcode all of it, or I do what you said ealrier with the check at the onEnable

#

but for now I will go for thework around

#

Thanks for the help, much appreciated

You know how inventories work? I have this farming rod. I used to have this InventoryManager class I wrote that lets me store 27 types of items. I had to rewrite the InventoryManager because I wanted a functional inventory but given the issues I have with addItem function from Inventory Bukkit class, I seeing errors and I don't know how to fix

#

But it was working before the rewrite was attempted

Looking at that error, got to line 82 of the class FarmRod.java and figure out from there what your issue is

#

Just wait a second, I need to fix line 53

dusty herald Feb 17, 2025, 10:40 PM

#

I don't have the context for line 53 but it appears that you assign the variable item more than once

#

oo i just found the context

#

    @EventHandler
    public void onBlockBreak(BlockBreakEvent event) {
        Player player = event.getPlayer(); Block block = event.getBlock(); ItemStack item = player.getInventory().getItemInMainHand();
        List<Material> ignoreItems = Arrays.asList(
            Material.WOODEN_SWORD, Material.STONE_SWORD, Material.IRON_SWORD, Material.GOLDEN_SWORD, Material.DIAMOND_SWORD,
            Material.NETHERITE_SWORD, Material.TRIDENT
        );
        if( !farmLib.isVaild(block) ) { return; }
        
        FarmRod farm = farmLib.get(block);
        if( !player.getGameMode().equals(GameMode.CREATIVE) ) {
            event.setDropItems(false); block.getWorld().dropItem(block.getLocation(), farm.getItem());
            for( ItemStack item : farm.getInventory().getContents().entrySet() ) {
                block.getWorld().dropItem(block.getLocation(), slotItem);
            }
        } else {
            if( ignoreItems.contains(item.getType()) ) { return; }
        }
        
        farmLib.remove(block);
    }```
You've assigned the item variable in the for loop while already assigning it previously in the code, specficially the first line of this function

" Now

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 10:49 PM

#

have you tried reading what it says

#

java is a strongly typed language

#

you can't assign something that is typed as Map.Entry<Material,Integer> to a variable of type ItemStack

slim wigeon Feb 17, 2025, 10:51 PM

#

I see what it says but like I said, it was working before I attempted to rewrite the whole InventoryManager

#

I cannot tell what I did

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 10:51 PM

#

this is because you changed the return type of a method

#

farm.getInventory().getContents()

#

this used to return something else

#

now it returns a Map<Material, Integer>

#

which you are calling .entrySet on to get a Set<Map.Entry<Material, Integer>>

slim wigeon Feb 17, 2025, 10:52 PM

#

Its the same as my other plugins

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 10:52 PM

#

which you are then using in an enhanced for loop to assign a Map.Entry<Material,Integer> to ItemStack item

#

so either you change the variable type or you change the method return type

slim wigeon Feb 17, 2025, 10:54 PM

#

Wait, I see what I did

#

I used keySet instead of entrySet

thorn isle Feb 17, 2025, 10:56 PM

#

if you're new to strongly typed languages my beginner advice would be to not do chained method calls, but declare and type a variable for each intermediate value

I have this function. Its a List<ItemStack> as you can see but how can I delete the entry from the list?``` public List<ItemStack> add(List<ItemStack> items) {
for( ItemStack item : items ) {
item.setAmount( this.add(item).getAmount() );
}

    return items;
}```

Hello! I'm trying to develop an economy plugin (with Vault support). Currently I am storing player data in a YAML. The YAML looks something like this:
player-uuid: balance: 100
Now, I have some commands which can deposit, withdraw, set and view the targetted player's balance. I want it so that even offline player's balance can be manipulated and/or viewed. To do this, I tried using Bukkit#getOfflinePlayer(UUID) and giving the keys from the YAML as argument. I also have an event listener which adds the player's balance as 0 in the YAML in case they have not joined the server before. But when the player joins for the first time, this doesn't work. It works from the second time. What mistakes am I doing here?

#

That turned out to be quite a long message lol

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 10:09 AM

#

probably not saving it

#

need to routinely save your modifications as they are just in memory until you do so

#

without code and assuming that being the case, it would make sense why it works on the second join if you only save data when they leave

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 10:13 AM

#

I'm constantly saving data at all times...

#

Can I share the GitHub repo? Individual files would have too less context

is there a particular reason why your plugin disables if vault isn't available?

rough drift Feb 18, 2025, 10:34 AM

#

dusty herald Thankfully spigot API does a good portion of it, at least event wise

There are actually some things which aren't cleared (both in spigot and paper) like a part of command handling iirc, which still keeps stuff in memory

I mean its not like vault controls it o.O

wet breach I mean its not like vault controls it o.O

if there are hard dependencies on the class, like importing vault stuff when vault isn't there doesn't tend to work

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 10:36 AM

wet breach is there a particular reason why your plugin disables if vault isn't available?

Not really. I just like to have it that way. I can change it to be independent too in case Vault is missing.

thus the only value of hooking into vault would be either for permissions, detecting other economy plugins or just making making it easier for others to use your econ plugin

The DataStorageManager class does it all. It should still work without Vault?

#

Or am I being unreasonably stupid here? I probably am

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 10:40 AM

#

https://github.com/Buoyy/CustomEcon/blob/master/src/main/java/com/github/buoyy/buoyyecon/economy/VaultEconomy.java#L153

#

so according to this, it needs a string, even for the other method

#

but in your listener you are giving it a player object instead

#

you also return false on creating the account

#

I recommend first making your economy plugin without any other dependencies

#

and then once that is working, work on adding vault integration and whatever else

#

I probably wouldn't even use vault all together

#

and instead just make an api for your econ plugin

#

there isn't really any particular advantage to integrating vault

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 10:44 AM

#

wet breach so according to this, it needs a string, even for the other method

I'm pretty sure that you're looking at the wrong method.

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 10:44 AM

#

wet breach and instead just make an api for your econ plugin

Alright. I'll do that.

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 10:44 AM

#

it isn't difficult to make your own api for your plugin

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 10:45 AM

#

And isn't the DataStorageManager class essentially an API? I can use it's methods directly instead of using Vault

slim wigeon Feb 18, 2025, 11:01 AM

#

Are you trying to make a economy plugin that auto hooks to Vault? Why not just use EssentialsX? It has economy features

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:02 AM

#

I'm making a custom plugin for my server. It will use Diamonds as the currency.

#

I know there's plugins like that already, but I want to make it myself

slim wigeon Feb 18, 2025, 11:03 AM

#

Diamonds as in ItemStacks?

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:04 AM

#

Yes

#

Basically, there will be a cloud storage system for every player's diamonds. All transactions are to be made from this storage.

#

Something like an inventory GUI. But that's something that I'll add later.

slim wigeon Feb 18, 2025, 11:05 AM

#

In that case, I cannot help you there. I still trying to get my inventory system for my farming rods working

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:06 AM

I just need help with the current state, the diamond based currency is not a priority at this point. Good luck with your project though.

That would be something to behold

slim wigeon Feb 18, 2025, 11:09 AM

#

But if you need something quick, search custom villagers and add a diamond shop that way. But you have been warned, shop villagers must be protected otherwise you be running the command block again. Once set up, you don't have to rush to get the plugin working

smoky anchor Feb 18, 2025, 11:09 AM

I'm not in a rush. And I really want to develop this plugin.

slim wigeon Feb 18, 2025, 11:11 AM

#

I had a exchanger service for emeralds that converts gold to iron and all that. Then when I added ShopGUI+, I killed it

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:11 AM

#

as for storage, I would probably just stick with MySQL since it is really good in the transactional area, high volume, high concurrency with rollback features and commits. I doubt you will need that anytime soon but it is a good starting point.

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:13 AM

#

I have considered MySQL too. But my server is pretty small (6 concurrent players), so I don't really need to go too far.

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:13 AM

#

you can tailor mysql as you go

#

sure for 6 it may be overkill lol

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:13 AM

#

I'll definitely do MySQL too.

rough drift Feb 18, 2025, 11:15 AM

wet breach cloud is just another way of saying server

depends, sometimes a cloud is a bunch of servers acting as a literal cloud, and the individual water droplets are instantiated servers

that's how I think of the "cloud"

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:15 AM

#

no

slim wigeon Feb 18, 2025, 11:15 AM

#

You can use what my farming rods use, a yml file. But I don't know about when there is 100+ players, you might want to switch to H2 or MySQL

a cloud

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:16 AM

there is some other names too to define various other kinds of server services. But cloud is just a made up buzzword that means nothing except to people who are sold services and have no clue what it is

It is a yaml file currently, yes

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:17 AM

if you want to continue believing cloud is something go for it. I will stick with the real definitions

since cloud never revolutionized anything

#

just was a name change

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:18 AM

The easy solution for my problem would be to just get the players to join twice

Because I guess that's how Bukkit#getOfflinePlayer() works

Exactly, it's a terrible strategy

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:19 AM

#

heavy fulcrum Because I guess that's how `Bukkit#getOfflinePlayer()` works

you know, with offline player object you can check if they are online and then switch to the player object instead if they are

#

OfflinePlayer.isOnline()

slim wigeon Feb 18, 2025, 11:20 AM

#

You know cloud storage for a example is not really a cloud, its in data centers. Discord or even Spigot website can be hosted there. So I recommend you stop trying to define cloud

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:20 AM

#

I have used it, but I don't think it works well

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:21 AM

#

it does, when ever you need a player object from somewhere, you can create your offlineplayer object then simply check if they are online. IE when using commands etc.

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:22 AM

#

I have a static HashSet of OfflinePlayers in the main class which is populated by objects at startup by Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer().
Then I just try to filter out the objects whose name matches with the argument provided in the command

#

wet breach it does, when ever you need a player object from somewhere, you can create your ...

Alright

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:22 AM

#

you can cast from OfflinePlayer to Player since Player extends OfflinePlayer

#

so its real handy to do a simple check if you have an OfflinePlayer object to just see if they happen to appear online before manipulating the object etc

Oh, and the player join listener too updates the HashSet instantly if the player has not played before on that server

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:23 AM

#

if they are online, Just cast to Player and use the Player object from then on 🙂

#

OfflinePlayer offPlayer = Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(string);
Player player = (Player)offPlayer;

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:25 AM

#

getOfflinePlayer(String) is deprecated...

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:25 AM

#

sure but not unusable

#

how else you intend to get the object when using a command?

#

search up their uuid from some website first?

#

or just let the server internals do it for you

#

letting the server internals do it, means you still have to give it a string, hence why it still exists

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:26 AM

#

I do something like this:
OfflinePlayer target = Bukkit.getOfflinePlayers().stream().filter(p->p.getName().equals(/*name provided in argument*/)).findFirst().orElse(null);

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:26 AM

UUID playerUUID = Bukkit().getOfflinePlayer(string).getId();

this is pointless

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:27 AM

#

But it works around the deprecated methods

#

idk why I don't use them

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:27 AM

#

not really, because you are assuming deprecated means you can't use it

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:27 AM

#

I probably should when it works most of the time

random stump Feb 18, 2025, 11:28 AM

#

hi

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:28 AM

#

the reason string is deprecated is mostly to inform that player names can change, not that there is anything wrong with using it as long as you are aware of that fact

heavy fulcrum Feb 18, 2025, 11:28 AM

#

alright alright

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:28 AM

#

so for example, when a player is on the server online their name isn't going to magically change while they are on the server

young knoll Feb 18, 2025, 11:28 AM

It’s also to inform you of the potential blocking web request

wet breach Feb 18, 2025, 11:29 AM
