[sly topaz]

bitbucket likes to put that information on the url, which is nice for big commits where you want to reference a specific line but generally annoying for a commit with a single line change lol

[manic delta]

okay i will try, thank you

i can finally post a update for my plugin lmao

[jagged thicket]

yeah try and tell, cuz i could only reproduce the issue on offline mode

maybe it could persist on online so lmk

why are those two different

[eternal night]

one is the committer, the other is the author

[jagged thicket]

no like the pfp

[chrome beacon]

They are the commiter and it doesn't match their pfp

[manic delta]

yea the problem is on offline mode i think

[chrome beacon]

Did you commit using the wrong email

[jagged thicket]

maybe wrong username

[chrome beacon]

other than that idk

[eternal night]

im confused

[jagged thicket]

yeah me too

lol

i do not know how that happens

[eternal night]

is that not your account?

[sly topaz]

wrong git configuration

[jagged thicket]

that is my pfp yes but it was years ago

[sly topaz]

is it the same email as the one from the stash account?

[jagged thicket]

yeah

[blazing ocean]

boiman123__

interesting

[chrome beacon]

Did you commit with that username

[jagged thicket]

prolly some windows credentials fuckery

[sly topaz]

ah but the username is different now

[blazing ocean]

no

[sly topaz]

yeah, most likely wrong git configuration

[blazing ocean]

my stash account is radstevee

[chrome beacon]

Not you rad

[blazing ocean]

then don't ping reply 😭

[jagged thicket]

i only have 1 stash account

idk how i could have two usernames

[chrome beacon]

I forgot to turn it off 😭

[sly topaz]

so, orang3l, did you change the username?

[jagged thicket]

nop

[chrome beacon]

Name in git

[jagged thicket]

oh how to check

[blazing ocean]

javier where are you from again

[sly topaz]

I can't use youtube's angry emoji here but I would if I could

[blazing ocean]

kekw

[chrome beacon]

git config user.name

Should show it

[jagged thicket]

leme see

this is interesting

git is some dark magic no one can decode

[worldly ingot]

a config?

[chrome beacon]

Try the global config with --global

[eternal night]

username usually doesn't matter

email is the interesting bit

[jagged thicket]

empty

[sly topaz]

it is most likely the windows credentials

[jagged thicket]

i reseted it

b4 commiting

and still happend

btw context that is my gmail pfp

[sly topaz]

not sure then, maybe your email got linked to that old username at some point and now it is just linked to that

[wet breach]

I am not sure I am understanding the issue here

[sly topaz]

ah, the bitbucket uses gravatar so maybe it's something related to that?

[sly topaz]

the commit author has a different pfp than the one they use in stash

[jagged thicket]

also username

diff username

[sly topaz]

and after we checked, the only difference is that the commit author has a different username for whatever reason

[wet breach]

that isn't what I am seeing

[sly topaz]

see

[jagged thicket]

wait tf the username is correct but pfp is wrong

this is cursed look

[wet breach]

It is quite possible that you uploaded an avatar and then changed it to use gravatar

[sly topaz]

the displayed username is right probably because your email is linked to that account

the user id is different for whatever reason, though

you probably triggered some kind of bug in bitbucket lol

[jagged thicket]

yeah

[sly topaz]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/users/boiman123__
https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/users/orang3I

[jagged thicket]

@sly topaz see dm

[sly topaz]

was boiman123__ even your username at any point for that to happen tho

[wet breach]

so they have two stash accounts?

[sly topaz]

they don't, bitbucket just duplicated them

[jagged thicket]

my commit goes through the boiman one

i can login through the orang3i one

[wet breach]

ok, so you have 2 accounts?

[jagged thicket]

Nop

i didn't create them

i only made the orang3i account

[sly topaz]

?support

[undone axle]

[e-mail]

[wet breach]

then what might have happened is at some point you made a commit using the wrong user.name and it was accepted

and thus linked to your account

a user.name and user.email isn't necessary to upload a commit as that is handled through login credentials. So technically you can author/commit as one user, upload as another. But when you do this depending on the settings of the git hosting it will autolink accounts in this manner

[jagged thicket]

Ok yea i use login cred

[wet breach]

anyways, to get rid of the second auto created account you would need md5 to do that

[slim wigeon]

How?The method getLine(int) from the type Sign is deprecated

Anyway I can get the lines on the sign?

[eternal oxide]

signs are multi sided

ALL single sided sign methods are deprecated

[slim wigeon]

I just need wireless redstone, that is my goal

[sly topaz]

what does wireless redstone have to do with signs

This is old but it shows why signs are connected

[wet breach]

the gif star is in the way

[blazing ocean]

in germany we say "two idiots, one thought" (no, this is not a joke)

[sly topaz]

that is a 12 year old bukkit video lmao

[slim wigeon]

I just said its old but it does show what I trying to do with the signs

[sly topaz]

you can connect it with anything really, not necessarily signs

[wet breach]

weird way to say it

[sly topaz]

I am aware, I just find amusing how old it is

[eternal oxide]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/block/Sign.html#getSide(org.bukkit.block.sign.Side)

[blazing ocean]

well it's technically "two dumb people, one thought" but it sounds a bit bad in english

[sly topaz]

that's funny, we use both sayings in spanish

[slim wigeon]

Like this for a example?``` public ItemStack getItem() {
ItemStack item = new ItemStack(Material.NOTE_BLOCK); ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
DataContainer container = new DataContainer(meta);

    meta.setDisplayName(ChatColor.AQUA+"Wireless Redstone"); meta.addItemFlags(ItemFlag.HIDE_ENCHANTS, ItemFlag.HIDE_ATTRIBUTES);
    meta.addEnchant(Enchantment.LURE, 1, true);
    
    container.stringSet("itemID","wirelessRedstone");
    item.setItemMeta(meta); return item;
}```

It will still work?

[chrome beacon]

That's an item

Are you using GPT

[sly topaz]

is DataContainer a class of yours? Does it handle PDC or something?

[smoky anchor]

They are

[sly topaz]

also, you can have the enchantment glint without an enchantment nowadays

[chrome beacon]

ofc they are 💀

[sly topaz]

I wanted to give the benefit of the doubt, gpt is usually better than this lol

[slim wigeon]

Yes, its a class but someone said that it can be used on anything either than signs. So I just need help as to what that comment meant

[blazing ocean]

being worse than gpt is hard

[eternal oxide]

None of that code has anything to do with signs

[wet breach]

lol

[jagged thicket]

yeah im kinda glad there was no gpt few years ago when i started learing programming fr 💀

i would have abused it totally

not that i don't abuse it now

[slim wigeon]

But this one does``` @EventHandler
public void onBlockPlace(BlockPlaceEvent event) {
Player player = event.getPlayer(); Block block = event.getBlock();

    if( wrLib.isSign(block) ) {
        Sign sign = ((Sign) block.getBlockData());
        
        player.sendMessage("You wrote : "+sign.getLine(0));
        
        event.setCancelled(true);
    }
    //player.sendMessage("You have placed a block");
}```

[wet breach]

I would probably make fun of you if you were using gpt for everything

[slim wigeon]

See the sign.getLine(0)?

[jagged thicket]

i don't fr dw

[rough drift]

I am abusing it for algorithms, I'm constantly too tired to be able to learn new ones 😭

[chrome beacon]

ElgarL told you what you need to do

[sly topaz]

sign.getLine is deprecated because signs have sides now, you have to get the side and only then the line from it

[eternal oxide]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/block/Sign.html#getSide(org.bukkit.block.sign.Side)

[jagged thicket]

chat gpt cannot create greatness like me 2 years ago (i have improved i swear) https://github.com/orang3i/Gangs/blob/master/src/main/java/com/orang3i/gangs/commands/GangsCommands.java

[rough drift]

what the fuck 😭

[slim wigeon]

Thanks

[smoky anchor]

I love abusing GPT to generate boilerplate or code that I would have to repeat (if that makes sense)
Also seems good for generating code (at least in the one case I tried it :D )

[sly topaz]

lmfao

[jagged thicket]

that is proof that i learned programming by myself

NO ai can make that

[wet breach]

I guess people forgot that your ide can handle boilerplate code for you

[rough drift]

nah g I learnt by myself and I did NOT make towers of hell 😭

[smoky anchor]

https://tenor.com/view/javascript-hadouken-code-programming-gif-16271428

[jagged thicket]

i don't do it anymore

[rough drift]

yeah they probably mean more advanced boilerplate

what that is, idk

maybe unit tests?

[wet breach]

I am not aware of any kind of boilerplate code that couldn't be saved

[smoky anchor]

Ye I don't really mean this kind
And probably "boilerplate" is not correct term for what I use it for

[rough drift]

generate a unit test for the following methods <methods>

you can't really save that always

[jagged thicket]

yeah i use gpt only for making test plugins

[wet breach]

I suppose if you want to refer to unit testing as being part of the programming of making something

[rough drift]

I guess so?

[wet breach]

but unit testing is generally its own thing, or so I think it is

[sly topaz]

@slim wigeon https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/wirelessredstone-1-20.118121/ this is an updated fork of that plugin in the video

it is open source so if your goal is to make that in your plugin, you can take it as example

that is a lot more code than I'd have expected for a wireless redstone plugin tbh

[jagged thicket]

redstone is deeep

[smoky anchor]

Why does it have a database lmao

[sly topaz]

I imagined it just casting the blockdata to analogue powerable and triggering some circuits

[sly topaz]

I assume it is to save the location of the wireless redstone, the plugin comes from pre-PDC

[jagged thicket]

why does it use sql 😭

[jagged thicket]

great minds think alike moment

[smoky anchor]

Well ye, it just seems a bit funnie :D

[sly topaz]

I'll add a wireless redstone plugin to my list of pet projects

[jagged thicket]

🧠 he thinks like me

[wet breach]

it needs to keep track of where the wireless connections are at because if its anything like the old plugin, it has the ability to keep chunks loaded where technically you can use a switch from one side of the world and have it do something on the other side

so, not only does it track the connections, but chunks

[sly topaz]

a database is great if you want to access that info offline as well, so PDC is not always a good choice, in this case it would've been fine though

[jagged thicket]

im going to proceed to store my gangs database in pdc /s

[wet breach]

I am not really a fan of pdc

[slim wigeon]

I don't know about signs now. I cannot make them non-editable

[chrome beacon]

Cancel the interact event on it

[slim wigeon]

Just tried, it did not work

[smoky anchor]

show the code

[slim wigeon]

    public void onInteract(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
        Player player = event.getPlayer(); Block block = event.getClickedBlock();
        
        if( block.getBlockData() instanceof Sign ) {
            event.setCancelled(true);
        }
    }```

[green spoke]

Hello
How I can detect furnace around player?
Here's an example of what I was advised, but I want to see if it can be done more easily

import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.block.Block;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;

public boolean isFurnaceNearby(Player player) {
    Block playerBlock = player.getLocation().getBlock();
    for (int x = -1; x <= 1; x++) {
        for (int y = -1; y <= 1; y++) {
            for (int z = -1; z <= 1; z++) {
                Block block = playerBlock.getRelative(x, y, z);
                if (block.getType() == Material.FURNACE) {
                    return true;
                }
            }
        }
    }
    return false;
}

[manic delta]

you could use block faces

you are doing a 3x3x3 check right?

[smoky anchor]

I bet you're somehow checking for the wrong sign type or it should not be block data.

[smoky anchor]

What are you trying to achieve here ?

[manic delta]

something like (convert it to java)

fun isFurnaceNearby(player: Player): Boolean {
    val block = player.location.block
    val faces = arrayOf(
        BlockFace.UP, BlockFace.DOWN,
        BlockFace.NORTH, BlockFace.SOUTH,
        BlockFace.EAST, BlockFace.WEST
    )

    return faces.any { block.getRelative(it).type == Material.FURNACE }
}

[worldly ingot]

tbh what they have is fine with exception to the fact that I would use World#getType() so that you skip the unnecessary Block allocation

[slim wigeon]

Maybe but that is why I still here because I don't know how this works. Now, I have made 6 plugins so I do know how some of this works. Using instanceof was new and I tried to use it as I don't want to write all these signs

[manic delta]

sure

[worldly ingot]

There’s a tag for signs, isn’t there?

Or is it only sign items?

[manic delta]

you could use vector too

[green spoke]

yep

[smoky anchor]

There are various tags for signs, standing, hanging, all, wall...

[worldly ingot]

Then there ya go :p

[manic delta]

choco i love you

When I grow up I want to be like you

[slim wigeon]

I know there is tags for these but what to use with instanceof, I don't know if I getting the correct one by using block.getBlockData()

[green spoke]

O_O

[worldly ingot]

Well is there a reason you want to use instanceof instead of the tags?

It looks to me you want to just cancel if it’s a sign

[slim wigeon]

I was thinking I was going that already with instanceof

[worldly ingot]

getBlockData() is going to return you a type to interact with the sign’s block states (e.g. wall face, rotation, glowing, etc.) and getState() is going to return you a type to interact with the block’s NBT data (its text)

Both of those types though are a new allocation when you get it, so if you don’t expressly need that type, you’re better to check if the tag contains the material instead which is a much faster lookup with no allocation

[slim wigeon]

Thanks, that worked

I cannot break the sign now

[smoky anchor]

well here you're checking for any interaction
just check only for the type you need

But you should not need anyone to tell you that...

[wet breach]

I don't have high expectations of those that use gpt to do their coding

[rough drift]

Chat, I'm really bad at maths, imagine I have

  ^
  |
BBBBB

This vector (B is Block)

How can I find a vector that is 90° to this vector?

[slender elbow]

there's Vector#rotateAroundX/Y/Z

[rough drift]

yeah, the issue is it could be on any face of a block

so I'm trying to figure out how to just get a vector at 90° from a face basically

[eternal night]

the second you are in 3 dimensions, that doesn't apply

[slender elbow]

i mean yeah, 90° in what axis?

[eternal night]

there is an infinite amount of vectors that are 0.5pi from a vector in 3d

[rough drift]

I should rephrase it

give me one second

better with a picture

[eternal night]

[rough drift]

I HAVE NO IDEA

I FORGOR ALL VECTOR MATHS

[eternal night]

What is with the top vector

[rough drift]

that is the up vector

reference

ig

(0, 1, 0)

and the one pointing to the right is the face I have, and the one pointing down is the rotated vector, am I making sense 😭

[slender elbow]

i mean you still have two axis to rotate around

[eternal night]

Well, you still have the same issue as before yea ^

that vector might also point up

[rough drift]

hm

[slender elbow]

90° could be 90° down or to the left

[eternal night]

or towards the camera

or away

or any other direction where z is 0

[rough drift]

I need to find something that's parallel along the face I'm on (I know which face I'm on)

I have no idea how to explain this 😭

[eternal night]

"something" you can find just

[rough drift]

THERE

PARALLEL

[eternal night]

do you really just need something

[rough drift]

I don't need a specific direction, it can be any direction

[eternal night]

"parallel" to a plane makes no sense

[slender elbow]

parallel?

[rough drift]

well

yes you have like

say the north face

oh wait

I'm a moron v2

[slender elbow]

isn't that a brand?

[rough drift]

lol

okay no look lemme rephrase this

for the last time

[eternal night]

if you wanna just find anything, take [1, 1, 1] - [unit vector of your block face direction] and then normalise

I doubt that is actually what you want

but yknow, dunno if you even know what exactly you want 😅

[rough drift]

I have face A, and I have a vector pointing directly out of the face V, now I need to find a vector which goes in any direction except the primary direction of V, uhhhhh imagine like

A = UP
V = (0, 1, 0)

I need to find any vector which can have and x or z but a y of 0 in this case

[eternal night]

Yea

then see my prev statment

[rough drift]

oh

thank you

I think I'm just dumb sometimes

[eternal night]

(for future reference, V is called the normal vector of plane A if you need to google or something)

[rough drift]

yeah I know about it being called normal and plane I just figured it would be easier to explain if I specified exactly what's happening 😭

[jagged thicket]

@manic delta any updates on the bug?

[manic delta]

Not yet, I'm at university for at least 4 more hours

Bro wants to be banned by Mojang

[vivid skiff]

why?

oooh, for the roulette,

[manic delta]

Yea kekew

[blazing ocean]

Yeah I don't think you're gonna get support for something violating the EULA

[vivid skiff]

There are multiple similar plugins on spigot, like vegas

[pliant topaz]

doesnt change the fact its breaking the eula

[sly topaz]

in which version did spigot drop the version in the package name for nms?

[mortal vortex]

just quit bro

university doesn’t teach you to escape the matrix nor to be a hustler

[viscid maple]

amazing

[daring light]

Hello friends I have a question. I want to remove gold from generating in the nether world. Is there a way to do this with SpigotAPI?

[mortal vortex]

Custom Chunk Generation?

[blazing ocean]

teach me how to escape the matrix

[mortal vortex]

sry bro but that’s something Lord Tate will have to teach you. I’m just a disciple.

[sly topaz]

do you care about already generated ores or just new chunks

[daring light]

New chunks

[sly topaz]

then yeah, a chunk generator should do

[daring light]

Thank you all

[sly topaz]

either that or do it in the chunk populate event, don't know which one would be more effective

[manic delta]

Haha

[kindred valley]

No problem im glad i helped you well. Dont be scared to ask more !

[mortal vortex]

be scared of me though, I’m 7 foot, trust me

[mortal vortex]

I guess in a way you help everyone

Like Jesus or something

you helped me during my parents divorce

[kindred valley]

Yes bro im a son

A father

one of the most helpful guy on the server

[mortal vortex]

I cant stand without helping someone bro

Pls give me discord helped role

Moderators im waiting

[wet breach]

so you sit until you do?

[kindred valley]

I generally drink water seated bro..

if thats what you asking 👇👇

[wet breach]

so while sitting you drink water, and before you stand you have to help someone first otherwise you remain seated

[kindred valley]

thats it bro

[tranquil spoke]

Hi! 👋

I'm trying to "soft" update Minecraft worlds from 1.21.1 to 1.21.4, without having to delete/reset chunks. I came up with a (rather convoluted) solution, but would love to hear if anyone has any better solution or suggestion! 💪

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/how-to-regenerate-a-chunk-aka-my-quest-to-update-worlds.684815/

[nova notch]

what the fuck happened here

[sly topaz]

that'd be pretty hard considering there's no way to tell which blocks have been manually added/removed unless you have something like coreprotect since the beginning of time

I would personally just change the chunks a little on chunk load, using something like chunky to trigger a chunk load

[tranquil spoke]

I do have a good heuristic for that 🤪
I create another world with the NEW version of Minecraft.
I extract ALL blocks that have been added in the new update.
I copy them in the OLD world, only if there is AIR in their position, and if the bottom block matches. It's really effective for new blocks.

My main issue is how to regenerate entire chunks, since world.regenerateChunk has been deprecated. Any idea? 🫠

[sly topaz]

but what if a player purposefully left air there

like if they made a hole, for example

[kind hatch]

It may not be that hard. Since differences in world gen can be detected through a couple methods.

[sly topaz]

oh now that I think about it, you could just generate the same world with the same seed and hope for the best when making a diff

[kind hatch]

Chunk generation is consistent, finding the difference between the original and the new one would just be a simple checks.

[sly topaz]

but does that work cross-version tho

[kind hatch]

It wouldn’t on its own, but if you are just importing stuff from an older version, then it’ll work well enough. Maybe a build is slightly buried or raised, but it shouldn’t cause major problems.

Especially since it’s over minor versions

[sly topaz]

there are no minor versions in mc anymore tbh, so I wouldn't be so sure

but given the version range here hasn't massively impacted generation, I see what you mean

[sly topaz]

is there a reason you couldn't do the same thing you are doing for entire chunks

you'd just delete the chunk, then copy over the chunk data

the server doesn't even have to be turned on for that as you could edit the region files directly

a cheap way to do it might just be using the renegerate chunk enough times that it matches with the surrounding terrain

while it is deprecated, that doesn't mean it won't do what it is supposed to be doing

[kind hatch]

It’s also been deprecated since 1.13 and no replacement has been made yet.

[sly topaz]

well, rather, no replacement will ever be made

the concept of regenerating chunks just doesn't make a lot of sense

[kind hatch]

Yea, it’s possible the deprecation is just there to warn people about the usage.

Similar to what Bukkit#getOfflinePlayer(String name)
is

[sly topaz]

yeah, as long as it isn't marked for removal, it should be fine

[young knoll]

Worldedit //regen uses a copy of the world to do it

[eternal night]

regenerateChunk is a whole mess yea.
I'd stay away from that as far as possible

[tranquil spoke]

I tried using it and it simply doesn't work! 😅

So right now what I'm doing is teleporting the player in a NEW world to "fill in" the original chunks.

And once I have that, I can export the new blocks added in the new version.

This however doesn't import biomes (i.e.: a pale garden won't count as a pale garden biome), and other features like fallen trees, so I know it's a bit of a hack.

[tranquil spoke]

My original solution was to dispatch command using a WorldEdit command. But apparently that's way more expensive.

[young knoll]

Just generate a copy of the world like worldedit does

And copy over the blocks + biomes

[tranquil spoke]

I'm also making sure the bottom block has to be the same.
This would technically only affect NEW blocks (like the "leaf litter" or the "cactus flower"), so it's unlikely to create damage!

[tranquil spoke]

WAIT... are you telling me that the way WorldEdit regenerates the world is by keeping A COPY of the orginal chunk??? 😱

[kind hatch]

That’s how they do it?

[young knoll]

Yes

[kind hatch]

Well I’ll be

How do they make it so fast though? Cause don’t you have to create a world, load the related chunk, copy all the info over, and then remove the temp world?

[young knoll]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[eternal night]

nms fuckery

the world is never loaded into the server list

[real spindle]

Some good developer for 1.7/1.8 servers? Let me know

Factions

[worldly ingot]

I’ve never seen so many red flags

[umbral ridge]

black flags

[sullen marlin]

Hypixel 1.7 factions when

[young knoll]

But ur a developer for a 1.7/1.8 server

Which can only mean one thing

Hypixel factions confirmed

[eternal night]

will it include tnt canon patches

[slate siren]

In the kit system, I create a kit by saying /create (name) and it sets all the items on me as a kit, and the items are given to a player after they die and respawn without any problems. There is no problem with that. The main problem is that when I pick up the lighter in the given item and want to use it, it does not react, there is no animation and I cannot light anything.

What could be the problem?

[umbral ridge]

XD

[slate siren]

Don't laugh, tell me the problem 😅

[umbral ridge]

do you use world guard

maybe its blocking it

[slate siren]

No, there is no protection, nothing happens when you use the lighter, of course if I exit the game and log in again the problem goes away

[umbral ridge]

then it sounds like nbt issue

maybe try to force inventory update after giving a kit

player.updateInventory()

idk

[slate siren]

I tried, it didn't work

[umbral ridge]

can you post your code

[slate siren]

I think it may be an NBT problem as you said.

[umbral ridge]

?paste

[undone axle]

[tranquil spoke]

Wait, then how do they do it for chunks which have been generated BEFORE WorldEdit was added to the server as a plugin?

[young knoll]

The same way?

It just generates a copy of the world with the same seed

[tranquil spoke]

Someone on the forum suggested using World.loadChunk.
My only question is... if loadChunk DOES generate the chunk (when it does not exist), why is regenerateChunk problematic? Because to me, it seems loadChunk could have been used to regenerate chunks!!! I feel there's something I'm missing... 😅
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/World.html#loadChunk(org.bukkit.Chunk)

[warm mica]

See https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Chunk_format "PostProcessing"
It contains temporary data for chunks that haven't been generated yet, neighboring generated chunks. That data (most likely) gets wiped once the chunks generates, and since it's gone, it's not easily possible to regenerate it back to it's 100% exact original state.
The #loadChunk method either loads it or generates it if it doesn't exist yet, exactly the same as if a player would move near the chunk

[tranquil spoke]

Thanks! Do you know if loadChunk also generates/loads nearby chunks?

I wish the documentation had more descriptions about those methods. As always, the devil is in the details. 🫠

[warm mica]

Not sure, but I'd assume not

[red bolt]

😂 I was just mentioning but ik that the code is very similar I may be using paper but I was mentioning it for the heck of it. I doesn't really make a difference in this case (unless someone comes up with some super special paper only solution 😂 )

[mortal hare]

am i the only who finds vscode code lens annoying

i always disable it

[red bolt]

didn't know you could disable it. But I use IntelliJ for java. VsCode for anything else

it has never really bothered me tho

other than the fact it uses up line space in my scripts thats anoying

[mortal hare]

that's why i avoid it, line spacing gets kinda annoying to deal

[red bolt]

oh ye

[mortal hare]

im kinda surprised to find that vscode really works well with c#

no one mentions vscode as main editor for c# but with the recent introduction of new LSP server integrated into roslyn

man it is

i would even say ditch the visual studio and jetbrains rider altogether for it

[red bolt]

for C# I use VisualStudio (C# Unity)

[mortal hare]

Visual Studio Code is also fire for c#

as far as i've tested

[red bolt]

ye

[mortal hare]

i believe that its even better

especially for web projects

[red bolt]

prob I see VSCode as a lightweight version of VisualStudio

[mortal hare]

yea but VSCode uses Roslyn compiler's internal LSP server which is very good for analysing c# code it seems

[red bolt]

oh really

[mortal hare]

well everything i have in visual studio for c# i have in visual studio code it seems

it probs depend on workflow

[red bolt]

well not everything, anyway gtg

[mortal hare]

autocomplete, documentation, snippets, suggestions, code generation all works

[red bolt]

VisualStudio has a ui framework tho I believe or UI builder or smth

anyway gtg bye

[mortal hare]

well for winforms yea

[young knoll]

It also has like 5000 other things

That don’t get used much but shh

[mortal hare]

debugging stuff ig is still needed for visual studio but afaik there's a way to setup debugging for c# on vscode

is there any way to change those three dot suggestions in vs code

into something more readable

like curly underline in gray?

or yellow like a warning

[topaz stirrup]

I am trying to learn how to detect chat messages with plugins but when using AsyncChatEvent it asks me for a component in event.message().contains() but I don't know what that is.

[manic delta]

You are using paper

[topaz stirrup]

oh, is that paper?

[manic delta]

Yes

https://github.com/system32developer/SystemCore/blob/master/src%2Fmain%2Fkotlin%2Fcom%2Fsystem32%2FsystemCore%2Fmanagers%2Fchat%2FChatAwaiterManager.kt#L67

Maybe this example can help

[topaz stirrup]

oh sorry, I didn't know that.

[manic delta]

You can convert components to strings with this
https://github.com/system32developer/SystemCore/blob/master/src%2Fmain%2Fkotlin%2Fcom%2Fsystem32%2FsystemCore%2Futils%2Ftext%2FTextUtil.kt#L72-L74

[manic delta]

With that, guide yourself a little, it's Kotlin but convert it to Java with chatgpt or something like that.

[topaz stirrup]

thanks

[manic delta]

teleport it or use velocity

[jagged thicket]

yeah kotlin 💀

[manic delta]

I like it

[red bolt]

ik thats what im asking abt

I mean the math behind it

[manic delta]

I'll try the event thing in a bit

[manic delta]

It depends on how you want to do it

Kotlin is actually good

[jagged thicket]

NO

kotlin is weird

[manic delta]

Why

[red bolt]

Imagine you could control it with WASD I want to be able to tell it to move left right forward and backwards based on its direction... I dont need to go in angles just XZ

[manic delta]

@jagged thicket what version of spigot should i use

[jagged thicket]

just latest

[manic delta]

Get the player input and teleport the armor stand to that direction/movement range

[manic delta]

1.21.5?

[jagged thicket]

yeah

[manic delta]

Okay

One sad thing is that run-task doesn't support spigot servers

[red bolt]

I apreciate the help but I dont think you understand

[manic delta]

I have to manually start a server

[sly topaz]

run-task provides all the necessary abstractions to make one's own run extension, it wouldn't be particularly hard to make one for spigot

[thorn isle]

That's the way to do it

Or it depends, are you doing your own collisions?

Using teleports will cause your armor stand to move through blocks

Applying a velocity to it every tick depending on which input buttons are pressed will let the server take care of collisions

Jumping becomes a little harder

[jagged thicket]

for jumping tp can be used

[thorn isle]

You'll have to check entity.onGround() and whether space bar is pressed and apply a positive y velocity

And then probably apply the x/z inputs differently if the entity is midair

Dunno man I'm not gonna design your game engine; fuck with it, use your imagination, try things

which of these looks the least autismo

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

Pattern HEX_PATTERN = Pattern.compile("#[a-f0-9]{6}", Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE); btw and i would obv make static instances of the other patterns

[jagged thicket]

if it was me i would jus use the shortest version

as long as it works

[buoyant viper]

dont ask why i forced Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE param, i just didnt like how it looked in the expression

[buoyant viper]

hmm

[smoky anchor]

if it was me I'd use the more readable version
(or comment better one of the others)

[jagged thicket]

Yeah i would just use the shortest and write a 2 page essay on how it works

next to it

Compare different mappings with this website: https://mappings.dev/

in all honesty i just dont want to use regex but i also dont like my lengthy ass method

Pattern.compile is an expensive operation iirc
should store that btw

[winter jungle]

What's the best way to check on the Spigot side if a other server is currently running and connected to bungeecord?

I might have thought of Redis to temporarily save the status there, but Bungeecord unfortunately does not offer an event as soon as a subserver starts up

[smoky anchor]

Find it on your keyboard, place your finger over it and apply force

[small bay]

How does MCC implement the high-res, dynamic, non-bobbing map/HUD on the top right?

[sullen marlin]

?xy

[undone axle]

https://xyproblem.info/

[sullen marlin]

But the plugin channels probably?

[winter jungle]

As far as I know they only work if a player is on the server from where the plugin message is sent, that's the problem.

[thorn isle]

i'd use the shortest but replace the string::format bits with regular concatenation

sure, muh string allocations and whatever but you are already joining it into a string

[wet breach]

use a service script

systemctl can check on remote host services

this is the proper method for checking statuses of servers on remote systems. Just because it is MC doesn't mean proper administrations should be avoided or that everything needs to be handled in the server application

[winter jungle]

Makes sense yes, I'll have a look at it. Thank you :)

[timber basalt]

How do I display custom skulls in an inventory? Like a youtube head, tiktok head etc in an inventory

[eternal oxide]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/creating-custom-heads-in-spigot-1-18-1/

if you want heads which are not in a profile you have to use an external API

[chrome beacon]

(which uploads them so you can use a profile)

[timber basalt]

Thanks

[paper viper]

I’m not entirely sure how minigames these days work, but I currently have a lobby and arena. My arena is a copied schematic and it resets every time and I’m using WE for that operation. I don’t create a new world or anything. Right now, I don’t have a schematic for my lobby either. I just teleport players directly to the location

Should I be creating a new world every time a new minigame start? The issue now is that if people start the game with the same lobby or arena, they get teleported to the same place

[ivory sleet]

how meta is it to replace the chunk files with fresh data?

obv u need to unload said chunks and load them back

[thorn isle]

there is some sort of an internal region cache iirc so it's hard to make an educated guess on when the data is flushed and it's safe to modify the backing file

beyond actually unloading the world

for your use case, either world or schematic based instancing, where a new copy of the arena (an "instance") is created each time a game or whatnot is started, and each player is teleported to their instance

[pure dagger]

why does this code copy the item on creative mode? not the item on cursor but the clicked item

public void onInventoryClick(InventoryClickEvent event) {
        player.setItemOnCursor(null);
        event.setCancelled(true);
}

[smoky anchor]

You answered your question yourself.
Because ✨ Creative Mode ✨

[blazing ocean]

gotta love creative mode

[slender elbow]

the cursor is completely client sided in creative mode

[sly topaz]

is this on spigot or paper?

[lime pulsar]

Is there anyway to access the built in graphics, the sprites, without making a resource pack?

[blazing ocean]

define "access"

[thorn isle]

it's in mojang nms

i don't think either removes it with a patch

[lime pulsar]

I made a pop up using a TextDisplay I would like to use like an ItemDisplay behind it with the actyual ingame graphics for the pop up background

[blazing ocean]

what ingame graphics

[lime pulsar]

hang on let me find the exact path again

[rocky egret]

i'm following this tutorial and i am getting stuck trying to add a maven goal, it won't let me select the directory
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIUzbT7XVtw&t=184s

[sly topaz]

you can't put random game textures in display entities

just items and blocks with the respective item and block displays

[blazing ocean]

you can display items - that's what item models are for

[rocky egret]

https://puu.sh/Kr34j/f55fb86586.png

[sly topaz]

yeah but I assume they're looking for something completely different like a particle or something

[lime pulsar]

was just wondering if there was something I was overlooking

[blazing ocean]

oh my message wasn't a response to yours

[lime pulsar]

its in the sprite section

[blazing ocean]

well, is it an item?

[lime pulsar]

no its the graphic the game uses as the background of a tooltip on an item

[sly topaz]

you can display item tooltips with item displays I believe

[lime pulsar]

the only way i can think of accessing it is with a resourcepack

[lime pulsar]

orly?

[sly topaz]

I remember someone doing that here

let me see if I can find the video lol

[lime pulsar]

what i have now is just a black box with the text colored and formatted

it looks good but the rounded corners would look better 😉

[sly topaz]

here it is

[lime pulsar]

and thats without a resourcepack?

[sly topaz]

that's just vanilla I believe

[thorn isle]

i don't recall tooltips being displayable, but that looks like it could be a bunch of black text displays layered together to look like rounded/pixelated corners, and then the item name/lore on top as another text display

[lime pulsar]

ug thats a bunch of entities

[thorn isle]

maybe i'm wrong; i'd like to know if there's a native way to display tooltips in the game world outside of guis

[lime pulsar]

yea I am trying to stay away from nms, with all the fast updates thast a nightmare

[sly topaz]

but I do wonder whether they used a resource pack for the background now that I think about it

[thorn isle]

it's difficult to tell from a lowres video, but that background could be done with text displays as well

[lime pulsar]

yea if i used a resourcepack and slaped the graphic on like a piece of paper i could do it

[sly topaz]

I think it is just the normal text display background

I just never noticed it can look like a tooltip background

[blazing ocean]

the colours are just text display backgrounds

[thorn isle]

it does look very faithful to a real tooltip

[lime pulsar]

yea the lil bit of purple around the edges

[sly topaz]

usually one only sees nametag-looking text displays so that's throwing me off lol

[thorn isle]

you can get those edges and rounded corners by overlaying 4 text displays with a solid background; 1 black rectangle slightly taller than the display, 1 slightly wider, then a purple one slightly smaller, and then a fourth black one yet a little smaller, to turn the purple rectangle into a rectangular ribbon

and then you shove the text on top of that with a fifth one

[sly topaz]

it looks way too smooth for there to be 5 text display in one

my bets are it is just a resource pack

then again the video quality could be deceiving me

[thorn isle]

if you're talking about the movement, that can be done with billboarding

the billboarding rotation is applied before translation offsets, so if you place the entity on top of the player and then offset it away, it will move wherever you look at; clientside, no latency

[sly topaz]

it is nowhere near as bad as before with mappings being a thing

[lime pulsar]

this is the custom plugin i made so far

[thorn isle]

you can also do this in 2 dimensions rather than just horizontal billboarding like here, to to create a "hud" element that stays at a fixed position on the screen

the issue is that you have no way of telling how large the player's field of view is so you can't really make an educated decision on where to place it exactly

i've seen it used for hover tooltips on blocks, though, since those are in the middle of the screen

[sly topaz]

ah, the purple glow is just Display#setGlowColorOverride

[lime pulsar]

gah wrong video lol

[thorn isle]

neat trick

[sly topaz]

I wonderif you modify the transformation matrix of the text display, you can get rounded corners with a single entity

[thorn isle]

affine transformations only, they don't make things round

[lime pulsar]

on the tooltip sprite the lil purple edge is part of the sprite

[sly topaz]

I mean, of course

but that doesn't mean you can't replicate that with a text display

[thorn isle]

if you really want to you can read the sprite pixel by pixel and spawn a text display for each one

[lime pulsar]

it would be nice if we could add resourcepack like behavior inside a plugin 😛

[thorn isle]

your players will love it i'm sure

and the entity tracker

[sly topaz]

april's fools 🤪

[lime pulsar]

oh and now people want plugins that work with bedrock too

im on a mac and my thumbs are too big to play minecraft on my phone lol

[blazing ocean]

make a geyser plugin that bans bedrock users immediately

[lime pulsar]

lol

[blazing ocean]

does the client do any sort of validation on the name of an entity?

@young knoll i bet you love automatic response selfbots

[lime pulsar]

omg thats a bot!? 🤣

[blazing ocean]

just a selfbot hooked up to an LLM yea

[lime pulsar]

and I thought I had too much free time :p

[sly topaz]

does it answer if I reply to it

[wet breach]

its probably rad's bot

probably using a shitty free LLM API instead of just deploying one for it, a roast bot could run on a 1060 ti

[lime pulsar]

to what i should check a item.getItemMeta().getItemModel() my itemModel is test1 in the if what i should put? because item.getItemMeta().getItemModel().equals("test1") or "minecraft:test1" doesn't work

[blazing ocean]

it is 8:30pm

[lime pulsar]

build tools is snappy on mac, but then mac runs on a unix kernel

[sly topaz]

git just sucks balls on windows, it is slow and painful process

also windows defender trying to scan every file doesn't help either

[blazing ocean]

javier i thought you were a linux user

[sly topaz]

I use multiple PCs thorough the day

[lime pulsar]

item model is just a number that you can then use in your resource pack

[blazing ocean]

not anymore!

[paper viper]

^

[blazing ocean]

they added a component to set the item model on an item stack

[paper viper]

now its like floats, whatever

[lime pulsar]

orl?

[sly topaz]

this desktop has windows 11, my main laptop runs bluefin-dx

[sly topaz]

you can set the model of any item to any item now

[blazing ocean]

the custom model data container now supports more types, but you should still be using the item_model component

[lime pulsar]

can you set the skin?

[blazing ocean]

hm

what if I have two with the same name

[lime pulsar]

then you get a man with a flys head?

[blazing ocean]

nope

[lime pulsar]

so what happens you set the model and it uses the same skin?

[blazing ocean]

what skin?

item models can have textures

[sly topaz]

still faster than my old laptop kek

[blazing ocean]

that's a lot

try https://github.com/the-epic/spigotbuilder

[sly topaz]

tbf I am also watching a video while having ij open

[blazing ocean]

okay this is nice

[sly topaz]

what is that

[blazing ocean]

two fake players with the same name (16 space characters)

[sly topaz]

wasn't that always possible

[vagrant stratus]

why?

[blazing ocean]

idk, I just didn't know of it

[lime pulsar]

Just ran my nuild tools script: Total Time: 27.190 seconds

[blazing ocean]

there was one that got banned

[lime pulsar]

ok whats the new method for setting a moddle ingame?

[paper viper]

i use ||paperweight|| these days instead

[blazing ocean]

ItemMeta#setItemModel or something

[paper viper]

i remember using BT script

[chrome beacon]

setItemModel or just use the model data component

[paper viper]

i remember piggy sent me a zip of all the server jars lol

[blazing ocean]

using CMD nowadays is pointless for basic situations

[lime pulsar]

so if i made a model that looked like the popup background then i could display it in an itemdisplay

[blazing ocean]

yea, with a resource pack

[lime pulsar]

and a model is just a json file?

[blazing ocean]

yup

you make them with blockbench

[lime pulsar]

oh doh i can make a json file in game and pass it huh?

terr cant

[blazing ocean]

you put them in a resource pack

[sly topaz]

paperweight is fine but no maven support whatsoever, and I realy prefer maven over gradle

with specialsource at least there's an unofficial gradle plugin that works, with paperweight you don't even get that anymore lol

[lime pulsar]

yea I wanna use graphics already in the client i shouldnt have to make a resource pack for that :p

[sly topaz]

I mean, you aren't modding on the client but on the server

[lime pulsar]

i still use ant :p

[sly topaz]

so, it is what it is

[sly topaz]

why do you make yourself suffer

[paper viper]

i thought that was a joke

no but srsly dont use it lol

[lime pulsar]

ant autobuilds my jar why change it if it aint broke?

[paper viper]

any build system autobuilds jar

[lime pulsar]

so why change if the one i use works?

yes i have to manually change the spi location when i update plugins but tahst like 3 clicks

terr api

[sly topaz]

there's just no extendability

[lime pulsar]

extend to what?

[sly topaz]

if whatever framework/platform you want to use provides plugins, like Spigot for example provides specialsource maven plugin

[paper viper]

yeah its mainly resources too

and also features

[sly topaz]

while one could make something similar for ant, nobody ever does

[paper viper]

(and also nobody would want to)

[sly topaz]

so, you're left with a very basic setup in the end, which works for simpler things but at some point if you want to make things that aren't as simple then it just gets in the way

[paper viper]

you'd probably have to start writing your own scripts or extensions at some point

to do things that other plugins could do

[lime pulsar]

i try to keep all my plugins within the api so i dont have to do a tone of stuff each update

[sly topaz]

that's a good mindset to have, but often times one has to delve a little deeper in which it'd be useful if your build system allowed you to as intended

though I guess you could also go the other direction and just use reflection with somthing like reflection-remapper and call it a day

[lime pulsar]

when you ask someone teach me how to use maven, they run away

[sly topaz]

I mean, there's really very little to teach when it comes to maven, as it is declarative

[paper viper]

just learn gradually, you should know both maven and gradle

[sly topaz]

gradle also is pretty much the same as far as just listing dependencies and using some plugins go, they even are striving to make a full declarative dsl nowadays

[blazing ocean]

gradle has a lot more capabilities with their buildscripts

[sly topaz]

besides, any component IDE will handle the hard work for you

[sly topaz]

yeah but that's the part where it gets complicated lol, you actually have to learn the gradle API and its concepts

[blazing ocean]

whereas, for maven, you'll have to write plugins to do even the most minimal complex task

[blazing ocean]

often times it's also just basic fs stuff

[sly topaz]

I mean, you can vibe-code your way into it, but doing it properly takes sitting down and actually understanding what you're doing, understanding how the different build phases work and where to plug your stuff in your current task-graph

I honestly dislike having to go out of my way to make something custom a lot, hence why I use maven

if I ultimately need something custom, I need to be sure as hell I need it because it's gonna take time I don't want to spend on my build, but on the project I am currently working on

[paper viper]

I just can’t do xml because my eyes will hurt

[sly topaz]

there's maven-polyglot now, it's pretty cool

[lime pulsar]

lol when xml came out we were all making our own script languages it was fun

[blazing ocean]

woah kotlin

[lime pulsar]

i made a custom telemet client that could display images that used my own xml type language

[sly topaz]

yeah maven kotlin script sounds cursed but hey it is an option lol

[blazing ocean]

https://github.com/takari/polyglot-maven/blob/master/polyglot-kotlin/README.md#kotlin-pom-example honestly doesn't look too horrible

feels inspired by gradle

[sly topaz]

way more strings there, they could definitely improve that by a ton

[blazing ocean]

yea

[lime pulsar]

ok back to the model topic, so if i make a resource pack with models in it i can apply those to any item now?

[sly topaz]

yes

[blazing ocean]

yep

[blazing ocean]

just reading pom.kts hurts my brain

[lime pulsar]

and its in the api

[sly topaz]

the slicedlime example was pretty funny, applying dragon head model to a player head

[sly topaz]

yes, ItemMeta#setItemModel

[lime pulsar]

did md_5 do this?

[sly topaz]

there's so much stuff one can do with resource packs nowadays

[sly topaz]

what do you mean

item models? That's a vanilla thing

[lime pulsar]

i mena the api thing is it mojang or is it experimental stuff md_5 added?

i need to pay more attention to change logs

[sly topaz]

Spigot is an unofficial modding platform like forge or fabric for minecraft servers

md_5 forked Bukkit a long time ago and that is now Spigot

[lime pulsar]

yes i remember

wasnt that long ago :p

[sly topaz]

almost ten years now

that's a long time

[lime pulsar]

god im old

[fickle spindle]

why the rotation doesn't work?

                ItemFrame itemFrame = (ItemFrame) Objects.requireNonNull(event.getRightClicked());
                itemFrame.setRotation(90, 180);

[lime pulsar]

how do you get the CommandMap to unregister a command?

do I need to unregister commands and listeners when the plugin is disabled or does the server do that?

The server does it

[lime pulsar]

so I dont need a if(plugin.isEnabled()) in my commands at all

[young knoll]

No

[lime pulsar]

so I have my command executor and my listener, i should just set those to null so they wont have a reference to keep them loaded?

[young knoll]

They shouldn’t have a reference anyway

The entire classloader is cleaned up

[lime pulsar]

i have variables so i can acess them

just set those to null and im good yes?

[young knoll]

Again, the entire classloader is disposed of, you shouldn’t have to do anything

Granted your plugin generally shouldn’t be disabled at runtime anyway

[grim hound]

does right rotation somehow increase the scale?

in displays

(or left for that matter)

[young knoll]

Right rotation is applied after scale and translation iirc

Left is applied before

[lime pulsar]

so when my plugin is disabled onDisabled is called so i can save data and thats the only house cleaning i need to do

[grim hound]

yes, but can either make the display look bigger?

it shouldn't right?

[young knoll]

Pretty much

[lime pulsar]

when i use itemDisplays of an item with a model, they always looks bigger dunno why

[young knoll]

Rotations will make it look bigger based on the W value iirc

Quaternions are wacky

[grim hound]

NOOOOO

wtf even is w in this case

"angle"

[young knoll]

Just use one of the rotate methods

[grim hound]

and for what, using a unit/

[young knoll]

And keep in mind it wants values in radians not degrees

[grim hound]

wtf

I just set w=2

for 0, 0, 0 rotations

I was planning to be able to create custom advancements at runtime. I was planning to use listenerns for like onCraft, OnMine, onTrade, etc. Would it be easier or better todo that or just create them as achivements with NMS?

[sly topaz]

what do you mean by achievements, and why do you need to create them at runtime

[flat lark]

advancements/achievements

[sly topaz]

well, achievements are not a thing anymore

but that doesn't answer my second question

[flat lark]

I am wanting to be able to create custom "advancements" in game.

[sly topaz]

you mean an actual advancement tree or just the toast that pops up when you get one

[flat lark]

Honestly, I don't need an advancement tree or a toast popup.

I wanted to create a system like I could create an custom advancement to allow [collect, trade, mine, breed, explore]. I was orginally just going to use multiple listeners for each of these events but thought it may be better to just create an advancement does that for you.

[sly topaz]

you could do that, as long as the criterias in the game fit your needs

if there's an advancement you're thinking of that doesn't quite match a criteria, you could go for a mixed approach and just award them manually whenever an event gets triggered or the player completes certain actions

[flat lark]

is there a way I need to push it to minecraft code so it lists it as an advancement

[sly topaz]

you'll have to learn the format for advancements, it's just a json file with a certain format so it shouldn't be too complicated, unfortunately I don't have a good resource to learn the advancement format, I believe the AdvancementRequirement javadoc link to a post explaining it in detail though

[flat lark]

spigot or nms

[sly topaz]

once you do that, you can just load it with UnsafeValues#loadAdvancement, you may also have to call Server#reloadData

no NMS necessary for it

[jagged thicket]

you could make your own gui

and list advancements

[flat lark]

I plan todo that already.

[sly topaz]

eh, advancements gui is pretty fancy-looking and you can customize it quite a bit

but if you wish to do your own thing, that's up to you

[jagged thicket]

can u add your own page in that ?

[flat lark]

I just transform that data into a new class called 'Challenge' and save it in my database so it loads with custom chalenges i create.

[jagged thicket]

or remove old advancements

[sly topaz]

you can add your own categories, yeah or at least I remember people doing that

[flat lark]

yeah you can

[jagged thicket]

then yeah

using that is better

[flat lark]

but not for my purpose

because that is not runtime

[sly topaz]

I am not sure what that means

[jagged thicket]

i think they mean adding advancements when server is running

without reload

[sly topaz]

you can do that just fine, minecraft:reload (essentially what Server#reloadData does) isn't the same as bukkit's reload

[flat lark]

Ah.

[sly topaz]

that said, I am unsure of why you would have advancements that are created on the go, sounds rather convoluted to me but I don't really know what you're thinking here

I'd personally just think about it carefully to form a good advancement graph

[jagged thicket]

yeah i cannot think of any situations where you need to add avancements without restarting urgently

[flat lark]

My plugin is personal so I don't really care for the advancements tab looks or anything just creating custom advancements.

[jagged thicket]

then just make it with a gui library

[flat lark]

I am using a gui library called InvUI makes creating UI easier.

[sly topaz]

I mean, it isn't so much about the advancements tab but rather that the idea of advancements that are registered on the go sounds flawed by design, but then again I don't exactly know what you're thinking of making

if it is really necessary for it to be that way, then it is probably for the better to not use minecraft's advancement system as that'd just limit your system for no particular reason, and if you're using a resource pack, you can still make your gui look very fancy

[flat lark]

So I am creating a Advancement / Challenge Editor (Nothing Fancy or special) All I am using it for is to create custom advancements and editing data like rewards. Thats it

[flat lark]

I am not checking abnormal things. I am checking for common things advancements cover.

[jagged thicket]

u can use the minecraft advancements tab for that easily

[sly topaz]

eh, I wouldn't be so sure, dealing with adding or removing advancements on the go might be a pain in the butt

[flat lark]

Yeah, but you can't edit them unless I go into my server go into my config edit values with json look up on wikipedia what is what

[jagged thicket]

Yeah true

[sly topaz]

I mean, you can't edit them in the GUI, but you can definitely make some kind of in-game editor for advancements

there's no need to expose the json to the user, you can just generate that yourself

[flat lark]

I mean I can. I am not intend in removing them I can just block them from being granted.

[sly topaz]

I am not sure what's stopping you then, I'd just go ahead and try things out, see if there's any blockers when using advancements

[flat lark]

loadAdvancements seems to be deprecated

[sly topaz]

everything in UnsafeValues is deprecated

things in UnsafeValues are often methods which no one came up with a good API design yet, so they're not widely recommended for use

they're very raw access to minecraft features without much thought into them, for the sake of making them accessible in some way

[flat lark]

It may require json.

[sly topaz]

it does require json, yes

you can just output that with Gson

there are some advancement apis out there that abstract that out if you wanna try that route instead

https://github.com/ZockerAxel/CrazyAdvancementsAPI

this is the last one I heard about, idk about any new ones out there

[flat lark]

It may not work with 1.21.5 plus Its fine I can just create json for it.

I'll just make a wrapper for it

[torn shuttle]

me revisiting code I wrote 3 years ago

https://tenor.com/view/memory-no-memory-where-am-i-memories-harry-potter-gif-5385535

[daring light]

I was looking at ChunkGenerator, but I am still unsure how to I would go about removing gold ore from its generation. I see that you can give the default generator parts that you want it to handle. What would be the best way to achieve my goal of removing gold ore from generating in the Nether?

I want vanilla world generation, that is why I'm wondering if there is a way to do this without messing with the entire generation

[sullen marlin]

Difficult. Data pack with custom world gen probably the easiest to truly remove.

Otherwise just generate and remove gold after it's already there

[daring light]

Does the datapack apply if I add it to a world that has already been loaded and has a few chunks generated?

[smoky anchor]

no, at least I really don't think so

[daring light]

I mean will it continue to generate chunks by the rules of the datapack

[daring light]

So I need to create a new world then

[smoky anchor]

I mean, it's not about the chunks but about the data in the level file
So long you're only removing gold you can keep the chunks probably

[buoyant viper]

me revisiting code i wrote 3 days ago

[dapper night]

basicaly
if player exits boats (another one is stil inside boat)
minecraft respawns boat
making it move realy fast
and it kicks pasenger

any idea how the hell i fix it

[chrome beacon]

What did you do to cause that

[dapper night]

i exit boat

my anticheat just kicks pasenger

im trying to prevent this

but i ran of ideas

acording to my anticheat player moves 35 blocks per second

is there way to group these 2 people

so when one quits another dont get kicked out?

range check?
or any more sense making aproach?

[wet breach]

not using offline mode are you? pretty weird thing

[dapper night]

this one suposed to alow hacking, but prevent server from crashing

so it still has all of checks on

(anarchy)

[wet breach]

its supposed to allow hacking? Then why is it called an anti-cheat?

I suppose the answer to my question is yes then

which explains the unusual issue with the boat and its speed out of no where lol

[wet breach]

seems you got the answer to your question as well 😉

[dapper night]

nah

[pseudo hazel]

sounds like your anti cheat is too good? xD

[dapper night]

its called anticheat because i named pluging wrong in begining. It was created to prevent flying but then i thought this aint fitting anarchy.
I suposed to change its name since i only focused speed check. Also there is too much code to name it anticheat in single class file.
that would create need to separate speed checks with event manager and so on.

[dapper night]

ye im trying to make it allow wurst flight

[pseudo hazel]

sounds like a bad idea, maybe wurst needs to be improved then to bypass the cheat

[dapper night]

i mean only preventing speed violations

since thats how server died

[inner mulch]

does a class object always return the same hash ?

MyClass.class <- same hash always?

[dapper night]

uhhh maybe i misnamed that i mean java file

[brittle geyser]

Check it yourself

It takes 5 minutes

We can't be 100% sure

[ivory sleet]

Yes

[inner mulch]

thank you :)

[ivory sleet]

It iirc just yields the identity hash code, either if thats invoked natively, or through the System java api

[wet breach]

it depends

as long as it is invoked by the same hash code implementation yes

that being said, it depends on the hash code implementation being used

[inner mulch]

alright, thank you guys :)=

[thorn isle]

i don't think class implements hashcode

so that uses identity hashcode

which don't persist from one application lifecycle to another

and MyClass.class can and will yield a different class object altogether if it's loaded by a different classloader, in which case the hash will also be different

[wet breach]

public int hashCode()

Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by HashMap.

The general contract of hashCode is:

    Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the hashCode method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
    If two objects are equal according to the equals(Object) method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
    It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the equals(java.lang.Object) method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables. 

As much as is reasonably practical, the hashCode method defined by class Object does return distinct integers for distinct objects. (This is typically implemented by converting the internal address of the object into an integer, but this implementation technique is not required by the JavaTM programming language.)

[slender elbow]

the javadoc has changed since Java 8 and that last part is no longer present

in any case, Class not implementing it does mean that two foo.Bar.class from different classloaders will yield a different hash code

[wet breach]

classes don't really have a choice, they can only override the implementation

but you are correct on the different classloaders thing

https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/23/docs/api/java.base/java/lang/System.html#identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)

for modern java or updated versions this would be the more appropriate method to use

especially if the class overrides hashcode

[slender elbow]

wdym? you can't override a method of a class that isn't yours so classloaders are not the ones defining the hashcode of the classes they load

[wet breach]

since object is what implements hashcode. All classes have it implemented

therefore, all a class can do is override it

[slender elbow]

yeah, but the classloader is not the one that defines the hash code of a Class

[wet breach]

ok and?

not sure on your point

the reason changing classloaders can change the hashcode is because an object class that is the same but from two different classloaders are not the same object

[thorn isle]

by not implementing hashcode i mean to say that Class doesn't override (that is, implement it and override the superclass's implementation of) hashcode, and so inherits identity hash code from Object

and since identity hash codes are transient they won't "always" be the same; it's tied to the object's lifespan

and no object lives beyond the virtual machine's lifespan

[wet breach]

technically it could

but that is beside the point 😛

[thorn isle]

so the answer depends a lot on the definition of "always"; is the classloader the same? are future application sessions part of the same "always"?

[wet breach]

well hashcode is not guaranteed to be unique, just that its the same during the execution of the application given its loaded the same way

[thorn isle]

e.g. if you have MyClass in a common library shaded into 2 plugins and so loaded by 2 different classloaders, MyClass.class.hashCode() is going to give different numbers for both

well, hash collisions notwithstanding

[wet breach]

well, I think I said that just not in that procise way lol

[thorn isle]

was there a way to force the client to close the player inventory? i know it's clientside but i vaguely remember teleportation or something else causing it to close

i suppose i could open another inventory and then close it immediately 🤡 but maybe there is a cleaner way

[vast ledge]

Is there not just inventory#close()

[kind hatch]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/HumanEntity.html#closeInventory()

[thorn isle]

does that work on the survival inventory? i could tryitandsee but it'll be a few hours before i can get to

the survival inventory is a little bit special in how as far as the server knows, it's always "open" and you can't e.g. cancel it being opened, so closing it might not work either

[ivory sleet]

it probably won’t work

[ivory sleet]

This sounds like the best alternative

[thorn isle]

i'll see once i can test

hopefully the other inventory won't flicker in too noticeably before being closed

[chrome beacon]

Yes

It even works on the pause menu iirc

[thorn isle]

nice

[ivory sleet]

very nice

[halcyon hemlock]

good evening humans

long time no see

[blazing ocean]

hi sweatty

[eternal oxide]

lol I thought you were being rude, till I looked at his name

[wet breach]

I am not sure if you can close the player inventory

since it is technically always opened

well in the modern versions it is, forget which version it was changed in, in that regard

[modern crown]

Is this where I can find Devs?

[wet breach]

What kind of a server would this be if there wasn't devs o.O

[modern crown]

I meant is this the channel

[halcyon hemlock]

find devs for what purpose?

[wet breach]

is there some other meaning of this channel?

[modern crown]

Plugins and t packs

[halcyon hemlock]

for help, sure, for asking them to do shit for you, prolly not

[wet breach]

would be pretty weird to be getting development help from non devs

[modern crown]

Hire

For money

[halcyon hemlock]

not here
