[ivory sleet]

course work?

[chrome beacon]

Yeah

[jagged thicket]

too much audio and netoworking problems

[manic delta]

i wanted to use it for hosting redis and some databases

and maybe for a photo hosting

[ivory sleet]

its a bit of a flex to have a raspberry pi tho, def some aura to it

[jagged thicket]

True

[chrome beacon]

I haven't done too much programming recently

[jagged thicket]

i still have it somewhere

[manic delta]

sell it to me

[jagged thicket]

No

[ivory sleet]

ah, I assume u guys also the a ton of maths and other goofy courses?

[jagged thicket]

im starting uni soon so might use it there

[chrome beacon]

Yeah

[ivory sleet]

linear algebra, multivariable calculus etc?

[echo basalt]

don't the new arduinos also have web server capabilities?

robotics club at school uses em and they're pretty neat

sync over wifi, have a built-in led matrix

[jagged thicket]

idk i only had like crappy offbrand 2 dollar arduinos

i made a rc car, it hit a wall and brok

[manic delta]

i think ill buy a rasp 4

idk if it is good

[chrome beacon]

Not math, I made sure to stay away from that

[manic delta]

i just want a random stuff hosting

[ivory sleet]

oh woaw, u get to pick? :o

[echo basalt]

I just use a friend's whatever for that

[chrome beacon]

But ugh statistics and stuff

Not what I signed up for really

[ivory sleet]

probability and statistics?

[chrome beacon]

No not really

Well it's some of that ig

Vetenskaplig metodik och kommunikation inom data- och systemvetenskap is the course if you want to look it up

[echo basalt]

is that german

swedish close enough

[ivory sleet]

:,)

[chrome beacon]

🔫

[echo basalt]

ich vs och

[ivory sleet]

tbf tho, i didnt know that data science and data technology (or well, data engineering) were such different fields until very recently

[chrome beacon]

Hm? No

[ivory sleet]

well I think the substantial difference was mathematics, but that ofc impacts what u can study subsequently - since a lot of fields do require substantial math knowledge when u go in depth apparently

[chrome beacon]

Yeah that's true ig

[ivory sleet]

its annoying cuz the maths we study for example isnt even about numbers anymore- just symbols

[chrome beacon]

Yeah I've seen some

[sly topaz]

I missed the maven vs gradle convo 😔

my two cents is that maven is easier since it being declarative by default allows for a much more comprehensive documentation, and its plugin ecosystem as well as maven itself are much more stable. If you have a relatively complex gradle plugin, following along with gradle's whims is a pain in the ass due to how fast they move, they release a version each month and before you know the next major version is up removing API that was created a major version ago

gradle is a really cool piece of software for complex builds, but that's rarely ever necessary in the plugin development space

[jagged thicket]

but if u use paper

there isn't much choice (for userdev etc)

[sly topaz]

if you use paper then you shouldn't be discussing it here 😛

[jagged thicket]

that came up too (in the above discussion)

lol

[slender elbow]

declarative is definitely simpler, I can't wait for gradle dcl to be released and then have gradle have three different languages to write build scripts in!!!

[jagged thicket]

idk if most people (including me) would prefer dcl over kt

[sly topaz]

realistically, it shouldn't be too hard to replicate userdev as a maven plugin, considering it is relatively stable right now, it'd just take decoupling the gradle bits of the current paperweight codebase, which may sound stupid considering it all works with gradle, but I don't believe it'd too hard to find maven API equivalent if necessary

sounds good for a pet project, if anything

[jagged thicket]

currently tho, if im forced to use maven i would just add the paper-server and dep

[sly topaz]

someone could create a monster and make paper work with specialsource

[left jay]

it was very delicious eye candy i can tell ya that

[jagged thicket]

@manic delta did u check the loginevent in spigot tho

is it working now

[manic delta]

yes

i think the problem was from

no premium servers

[odd sentinel]

is there a recommended gradle plugin to run a spigot server for plugin development?

[jagged thicket]

it works in offline mode too now right

because the problem was for me atleast only in offline mode

[manic delta]

yea that

[sly topaz]

not particularly, you can just use run-task by jpenilla and enable legacy plugin loading as well as changing the classpath so that it runs a spigot server if you'd like

[odd sentinel]

I was looking at that but those steps weren't documented. I'll look again

[sly topaz]

they are not documented per se, you just have to figure it out lol

let me see if I can get it setup real fast so I can tell you exactly what you need to put in your build script

[odd sentinel]

that'd be great

well I tried posting a snippet of what I thought might work but this channel ate it

[sly topaz]

?img

[undone axle]

Can't send images? That's because you're not verified! Use !verify to complete verification.
Alternatively, you can upload screenshots to any image hosting site and share the link.

Here's some screenshot utilities that you can use to upload images.
Lightshot: https://prnt.sc
Imgur: https://imgur.com/upload
Flameshot: https://flameshot.org

[odd sentinel]

weird, verifications must expire. granted it's been a few years

[odd sentinel]

hmm well gradle refuses to find run-task, even though it's clearly published, I have the right name/version, I can see it on the gradle plugins repo, and gradle is searching that repo

but run-paper has worked fine for a while

[sly topaz]

plugins {
    id("java")
    id("xyz.jpenilla.run-paper") version "2.3.1"
    id("xyz.jpenilla.resource-factory-bukkit-convention") version "1.2.0"
}

group = "me.javierflores"
version = "0.0.1"

repositories {
    mavenCentral()

    maven("https://hub.spigotmc.org/nexus/content/repositories/snapshots/")
}

dependencies {
    implementation("org.spigotmc:spigot-api:1.21.5-R0.1-SNAPSHOT")
}

tasks {
    runServer {
        minecraftVersion("1.21.5")
        legacyPluginLoading()
        serverJar(File("../Spigot-Sources/spigot-1.21.5.jar"))
        jvmArgs("-Dcom.mojang.eula.agree=true")
    }

    bukkitPluginYaml {
        main = "me.javierflores.st.SpigotTesting"
        apiVersion = "1.21.5"
    }
}

this seems to work fine for me

of course, you'd have to change the location of the spigot jar to wherever you have yours, mine points to where I normally run buildtools

[odd sentinel]

ok great, thanks

hmm, errors for me with Cannot set the property 'main' because the backing field is final.

[blazing ocean]

try main.set(...)

[odd sentinel]

that seems to work

I suspect it's because I'm using the de.eldoria.plugin-yml.bukkit plugin too. I had disabled that and still got the error though

[blazing ocean]

what line are you getting the error in

[odd sentinel]

it's fixed now, although I need to figure out the plugin.yml situation. I can't use both

it does boot spigot properly, so thanks for the help on that

[sly topaz]

you should use jpenilla's resource-factory instead

it's the standard one

[odd sentinel]

ok thanks, good tip

ya its funny, even with the other yml plugin removed it still errors that fields are final. main.set works fine though. it gives the same error for all fields I try to define

hmm my groovy is a little rusty, how am I meant to access his enum PluginLoadOrder? I need to set the load property

had to get verbose xyz.jpenilla.resourcefactory.bukkit.BukkitPluginYaml.PluginLoadOrder.STARTUP

[sly topaz]

you should be able to just import that constant

as for why assigning didn't work properly for you, it is probably because you're using groovy lol

nowadays everyone uses the kotlin dsl

I wish run-task provided an aikarFlags function for convenience lol, this looks ugly as hell

I guess I could read it from a file but still

hotswapping also works fine with JBR 😎

[odd sentinel]

ya I've seen the kotlin switch over for years but haven't done much java in that time and more critically am old and need to force myself to adopt

[sly topaz]

well, even though kotlin has become the default for gradle nowadays, groovy still works fine

you just have to make sure to adjust some things when copying stuff from the internet

it's kinda funny because it used to be the other way around back when the kotlin dsl was introduced, guess that's how much of an influence android has

[rough ibex]

DSLs ugh

XML 👍

[blazing ocean]

no

[odd sentinel]

so the run-task still uses the run folder as a working directory (server files etc) but just reads the spigot jar from the ../Spigot-Sources/ in your example?

[sly topaz]

yes

you may change the working directory to somewhere else if you wish

[odd sentinel]

nah run is fine, I just was assuming incorrectly it'd use a different spot but then noticed it was using run

[rugged hemlock]

I have a question. If I'm creating BossBars with an event listener, should I be manually removing them after? or will GC remove them?

[urban cloak]

Why tf do you need aikar flags for testing 😂

[ivory sleet]

If I remember correctly, you may wanna remove them after

[chrome beacon]

Yeah need to remove them

[rugged hemlock]

okay, thanks!

it's just plugin.getServer().removeBossBar(key); right?

[chrome beacon]

or just Bukkit#removeBossBar

but yes

also don't forget to remove the listener

(if you have one per bossbar)

[rugged hemlock]

I always forget about the Bukkit static methods

[chrome beacon]

for reference the Bukkit class is a wrapper around the server

so when you do getServer you can usually just do Bukkit instead

[rugged hemlock]

it's just a single listener creating boss bars for timers

[rugged hemlock]

good to know, thanks :)

[eager ermine]

Who wants to make a cpvp bedwars server with bedwars with like maces ect with custom plugins 32gb I fund

[eternal oxide]

No hookers and blow? I'm out

[drowsy helm]

If I had a penny for every bedwars server

[young knoll]

32gb of ram

Or storage

[smoky anchor]

I think that's payment, 32 Giga Bitcoins

[young knoll]

Or maybe cat pictures

Everyone knows the secret to a good bedwars server is 32gb of cat pictures

That’s how hypixel does it

[chrome beacon]

just 32gb

[jagged thicket]

atleast bro funds

be like bro

[wet breach]

you would be broke

[blazing ocean]

if I had a penny for every player object that was ever stored in a collection and not cleaned up, I'd be a trillionaire

[rugged hemlock]

i probably made you thousands in my early days

[mental frigate]

can I somehow "concatenate" two NMS Components? (net.minecraft.network.chat.Component)

or does there exist some method like replace?\

[smoky anchor]

You mean like [{text:"Hello "},{text:"World"}] ?
Yes, that is possible somewhere

[mental frigate]

uh i guess? something like that

[smoky anchor]

That would be a snbt representation of two literal text components

[mental frigate]

I have two components, one with message "Hello" and the second one with "World" and i want to create one component from them "Hello World"

and how do i do this

[smoky anchor]

ok, gimme a bit

[mental frigate]

alr

[smoky anchor]

Can you just drop the code for your components ?

Ok, MutableComponent has method append(Component)
You can most likely use that

[mental frigate]

    private Component getMessage(Player player, ItemStack item, String slot) {
        Component message = Component.literal(this.plugin.getMessage("Messages.show-%s".formatted(slots.contains(slot) ? slot : "other")));

        Component itemName = getItemName(item);
    }

    private Component getItemName(ItemStack item) {
        net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack nmsItem = CraftItemStack.asNMSCopy(item);
        return nmsItem.getDisplayName();
    }```

[smoky anchor]

Component.literal returns MutableComponent

So just replace Component message with MutableComponent and then you can use append

[mental frigate]

Ohhh

thank you so much

[smoky anchor]

np

[mental frigate]

you are literally my savior once again

@smoky anchor but there's no replace method, right?

[smoky anchor]

Doesn't look like it, why do you need replace ?
How do you want to use it ?
At worst, you can simply create a new MutableComponent and copy over the siblings (and modify them)

[mental frigate]

Okay basically I have a message, like this "Player {player} is holding {item} in his hand." and i want to replace the {item} with hoverable component

[smoky anchor]

So you're thinking about this wrong

[mental frigate]

uh, maybe..

[smoky anchor]

You would not "replace" anything
You would append each part

And each time create new component

[mental frigate]

so I split the String "Player {player} is holding {item} in his hand." and create component for each part?

[smoky anchor]

Correct

[mental frigate]

alr, thanks

[thorn isle]

since they're both jvm languages (and iirc kotlin script is compilable as well) couldn't we in theory first compile java and then decompile into kotlin script so you can have your build script written in java boilerplate? 🤡

[blazing ocean]

kotlin scripts are evaluated directly and you can't really fetch the compiled output

it's due to the way their scripting hosts work

[thorn isle]

they aren't typically compiled since they're for scripting, but they are compilable, no?

[blazing ocean]

they do get compiled

[mental frigate]

@smoky anchor sorry for bothering you again but can I get rid od the square brackets? I get something like this.
Player indyy__ is holding [item name] in their hand.

and I'd like to have
Player indyy__ is holding item name in their hand.

[smoky anchor]

Show how you're constructing the text please

[mental frigate]

    private MutableComponent getMessage(Player player, ItemStack item, String slot) {
        String base = this.plugin.getMessage("Messages.show-%s".formatted(slots.contains(slot) ? slot : "other"))
            .replace("{player}", player.getDisplayName())
            .replace("{item}", this.plugin.getMessage("Messages.item-format")
                .replace("{amount}", String.valueOf(item.getAmount())));
        List<String> parts = List.of(base.split("\\{item}"));

        return Component.literal(parts.getFirst())
            .append(this.getItemName(item))
            .append(parts.getLast());
    }

    private Component getItemName(ItemStack item) {
        net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack nmsItem = CraftItemStack.asNMSCopy(item);
        return nmsItem.getDisplayName();
    }```

[smoky anchor]

That's an interesting way of doing that, seems too complicated

[mental frigate]

uh..

[smoky anchor]

But I think I know why you have to do that

[mental frigate]

I don't really know a different way

[mental frigate]

what do you mean?

[smoky anchor]

You have "Messages.show-%s"
Which I assume resolves to "Player {player} is holding {item} in their hand."

[mental frigate]

yes

Messages:
  non-player-executor: '&cYou can only perform this command as player.'
  no-permission: "&cYou don't have permissions to use this command."
  player-not-found: '&cPlayer &7{player} &cnot found.'
  invalid-slot: '&cInvalid slot. &cUsage: /show [hand|offhand|head|chest|legs|feet|<slot>] [<player>]'
  empty-slot: '&cThe slot {slot} is empty.'
  show-hand: '&aPlayer &7{player} &ais holding &r{item} &ain their hand.'
  show-offhand: '&aPlayer &7{player} &ais holding &r{item} &ain their offhand.'
  show-head: '&aPlayer &7{player} &ais wearing &r{item} &aon their head.'
  show-chest: '&aPlayer &7{player} &ais wearing &r{item} &aon their chest.'
  show-legs: '&aPlayer &7{player} &ais wearing &r{item} &aon their legs.'
  show-feet: '&aPlayer &7{player} &ais wearing &r{item} &aon their feet.'
  show-other: '&aPlayer &7{player} &ais holding &r{item} &ain their inventory.'
  item-format: '&7{amount}x &r{item}'```

[smoky anchor]

Which is not exactly compatible with this append way of doing the components

oh hell no, you're not mixing legacy colors with components

[mental frigate]

oh..

um yea..

[smoky anchor]

I mean, keep it
It's fine, you're not updating anyways
Just... 🤮 :D

[mental frigate]

uh, how should I do this?

because I assume it's a bad practice, right?

[smoky anchor]

No, keep it as it is
Back to your problem. I think nmsItem.getDisplayName() returns the [] as well
Instead, just use the bukkit ItemStack to get the display name

[mental frigate]

it does

[smoky anchor]

Yeah, legacy colors are well.. legacy and most likely to be removed

[mental frigate]

wdym removed?

[smoky anchor]

By mojang, the support for §2 as green will be probably removed in some version

[slender elbow]

mojang will remove the rendering of legacy formatting in the client

[mental frigate]

but bukkit getDisplayName from bukkit ItemStack returns only the name, without formatting

[mental frigate]

oh jeez, how will colors be handled then in configs

[smoky anchor]

Oh...

[mental frigate]

yea..

[smoky anchor]

I doubt that will change, only internally they will be handled in the Mojang way. I can't see ppl ever leaving & at least for spigot

[mental frigate]

oh, so whats the problem with using it then

[smoky anchor]

As I said, it's fine. You don't have to worry about it if it works.

[slender elbow]

I mean on bukkit ItemStack#getDisplayName() is not a thing, if you mean the one in ItemMeta instead, that's just the custom_name component directly

[mental frigate]

hmm, maybe I should get the display name from bukkit, retrieve name and styles separately, format the name how I like and create new component and just add the styles?

[mental frigate]

ye, but we all know what he meant

[slender elbow]

so the way you get display names in bukkit is a different way than the nms ItemStack#getDisplayName(), this one colours the text based on rarity, if it's enchanted, it will include itemstack hover event etc

[smoky anchor]

That would be a way. But I'm fairly sure you can somehow do that with NMS normally too. Just don't know how now.

[mental frigate]

me neither, so I guess I will do it this way for now, thank you for your help!

[slender elbow]

yeah just get the custom_name/item_name component :thinksmart:

[eternal night]

would be really cool if there was an API for this

[blazing ocean]

keep dreaming lynx

[mental frigate]

    private Component getItemName(ItemStack item) {
        net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack nmsItem = CraftItemStack.asNMSCopy(item);

        Component displayName = nmsItem.getDisplayName();
        String name = displayName.getString();
        Style style = displayName.getStyle();
        
        name = name.substring(1, name.length() - 1);
        
        return Component.literal(name).withStyle(style);
    }```
smth like that, ig?

[smoky anchor]

If it works :D

[mental frigate]

it works perfectly!

[smoky anchor]

Happy to hear

[mental frigate]

thank you so much steve and emily

[mental frigate]

api for what?

[eternal night]

for dealing with components

[mental frigate]

oh yea..

Can someone help me how to add minecraft attributes to code?

[smoky anchor]

Yes, show us what you have so far

[smoky anchor]

And version ?

[white crescent]

1.21.4

[rugged fern]

What am i missing? the protocol documentation is confusing me, packetListener.send(new ClientboundAddEntityPacket(npc.getId(), npc.getUUID(), location.getX(), location.getY(), location.getZ(), location.getYaw(), location.getPitch(), npc.getType()));

Docs saying: java public ClientboundAddEntityPacket( int var0, java.util.UUID var1, double var2, double var4, double var6, float var8, float var9, net.minecraft.world.entity.EntityType<?> var10, ?? int var11, ?? @NotNull net.minecraft.world.phys.Vec3 var12, ?? double var13

[smoky anchor]

Pretty sure it's no longer GENERIC_

And where did builder come from 🤔

[white crescent]

oh yeah, it isnt thank you

[smoky anchor]

Smells a bit like 📜

No, better, AI ? :D

[white crescent]

it actually is

[smoky anchor]

Ye, outdated knowledge
And you don't even know how to fix this easy bug
First actually learn java

without AI

[chrome beacon]

That's not really docs, just the decompiled and remapped constructor signature

Open the class and see what it does with those params, or find where the server is using that constructor and see what they pass it

[smoky anchor]

?mappings

[undone axle]

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

[chrome beacon]

Yeah that's also an option

[rugged fern]

alright how do i get the entity data because i just got a SynchedEntityData from npc.getEntityData() for example

[smoky anchor]

Why do you think I would know lol

[blazing ocean]

just set it to zero and then send entity metadata packets, easier

[chrome beacon]

Entity metadata is a different packet

I forgot to mention that you need it as well if you want skin layers etc

as for the data see the protocol page

[blazing ocean]

in this case it's best to use citizens, and providing support for stuff like this is just pretty annoying tbh

[tight root]

is there a way to set a painting itemstack's variant using the spigot api?

vanilla command example: ```
/minecraft:give @s painting[entity_data={id:"minecraft:painting",variant:"minecraft:<id>"}] 1

i think its possible to set a painting entity's art but id rather have it on the item itself

[chrome beacon]

I don't really see an API for that

If you want you can use this Unsafe API https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/UnsafeValues.html#modifyItemStack(org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack,java.lang.String)

[tight root]

hmm alr thanks ill check that out

i found this package de.tr7zw.nbtapi that lets you modify nbt data

im gonna try that out

[chrome beacon]

Yeah that works too

[rugged fern]

why do i get null when trying to spawn the npc? Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "net.minecraft.server.network.PlayerConnection.k()" because "var0.f" is null

Code for initializing the server player: ```java
ServerPlayer npc = new ServerPlayer(server, level, gameProfile, ClientInformation.createDefault());
npc.setPos(location.getX(), location.getY(), location.getZ());

        ServerGamePacketListenerImpl packetListener = serverPlayer.connection;
        packetListener.send(new ClientboundPlayerInfoUpdatePacket(ClientboundPlayerInfoUpdatePacket.Action.ADD_PLAYER, npc));
        packetListener.send(new ClientboundAddEntityPacket(npc.getId(), npc.getUUID(), location.getX(), location.getY(), location.getZ(), location.getYaw(), location.getPitch(), npc.getType(), 0, Vec3.ZERO, npc.yHeadRot));```

[manic delta]

better use entitylib

[blazing ocean]

you need to set the player's connection to something

a noop impl

[young knoll]

Noop

[odd sentinel]

is there any api for building Tags programmatically?

[young knoll]

Don’t think so

[odd sentinel]

bummer, wish there was

[sly topaz]

are you trying to spawn a NPC

if that's the case, you're better off disguising a different entity as a player

[blazing ocean]

eh not really

[sly topaz]

I mean, implementing either solution sucks, but by disguising at least you get more freedom

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/649605 there's someone who implemented the one with the connection for fall damage and what not

then also just spawned another entity for pathfinding

[blazing ocean]

eh this works fine for me

[sly topaz]

that doesn't seem to handle spawning the NPC when they come into tracking distance tho

[blazing ocean]

haven't tested that

[sly topaz]

you could just add the fake player to the PlayerList but that'd also mean it'd get treated the same as a regular player

hence why the person on that post decided to extend ServerPlayer instead

[pale garnet]

guys, i wanna make a toggle message command for my friend's server, how would i go about doing it

[sly topaz]

toggle message as in, disallowing people from chatting? Or like, not receiving DMs?

also, are you a developer or are you looking for a plugin to do it? Because this channel is for the former

[thorn isle]

personally i'm still of the mind that depending on citizens/libsdisguises is the most hassle-free and robust option to player npcs

[sly topaz]

citizens API is ass, libdisguises sounds fine though

[thorn isle]

citizens does come with a lot more baggage than most plugin devs or server admins really need, yeah

libsdisguises is pretty lightweight solution and gives you full control over the ai and other handling

[umbral ridge]

hey

once the server restarts, does it load all the world chunks that have been explored and loaded? or chunks where the entities spawn? how do entities spawn? kinda need to understand the whole system on chunks if I want to answer the question i guess...?

im trying to check if block at location is loaded or not

[sly topaz]

do you have the location only?

if so, you can just bit shift the x and z by 16 and then check World#isChunkLoaded

[umbral ridge]

yes, I have the x y z and the world name, ignoring the pitch and yaw from the player's view

[sly topaz]

ig you could also just do Location#getChunk#isLoaded

[umbral ridge]

how does isChunkLoaded work? is it loaded when there are nearby entities? does it unload if there are no players nearby? do chunks load specifically for players or all entities, also is there a limit of how many chunks can be loaded at the same time?

[sly topaz]

does whatever you are doing depend on the chunks being loaded or what exactly? That sounds like a leading question to your actual issue

if whatever you're doing requires the chunk to be loaded, you can use chunk tickets to keep them loaded as necessary

[umbral ridge]

yea

i think isLoaded will be ok

ty xd

[thorn isle]

it's loaded when the chunk status is FULL

[sly topaz]

what determines whether a chunk is loaded is a hard question to answer as there are levels to a chunk being loaded, it might be completely unloaded if there's nothing in it, it might not be completely unloading to allow for entity tracking, among other things

[young knoll]

Chunks only load around players

[thorn isle]

see the minecraft wiki for chunk loading

[young knoll]

Unless it’s force loaded via a ticket / command

Or the spawn chunks

[thorn isle]

bukkit only considers entity-ticking chunks (the highest load level) as loaded

there are other load levels as well, like block ticking or border

[young knoll]

And the only limit to how many can be loaded is your ram

[umbral ridge]

so chunks are unloaded after n ticks or as soon as players leaves the range.. that is sufficient for chunks to stay loaded

[thorn isle]

sort of except sometimes but usually yes

the wiki will provide a much more comprehensive answer

[umbral ridge]

alright

[sly topaz]

you're barely using half of it, why do you need more

[umbral ridge]

😂

[sly topaz]

RAM is meant to be used, it being full means your system is taking good use of it

if you have leftover ram that means you just have too much RAM

[umbral ridge]

my cpu is sitting at 1% too

[blazing ocean]

I used to get OOM crashes back when I had 16 gigs

[sly topaz]

average linux experience

[blazing ocean]

well I was using 100% of the ram

so, fair

(and no, not just cache)

[sly topaz]

you probably didn't have swap setup properly, it should never just crash on you

[thorn isle]

you should run your server entirely on swap

[blazing ocean]

well it didn't crash but freeze and then become irresponsive and crash at some point

but I did set up 8GB of zram

[remote swallow]

unused wam is wasted wam

[blazing ocean]

dedodated wam

[sly topaz]

how to age your disk by 10 years 101

[blazing ocean]

how to age your disk by 101 years*

[sly topaz]

I am still doing fine with 8gb of RAM

[blazing ocean]

wait till you're running 5 IJ instances, 2 MC servers, one proxy and 2 MC instances

[sly topaz]

one thing I hate is that I get OOM crashes when I have IntelliJ, Minecraft and a minecraft server open in linux even though that didn't happen to me in windows

[blazing ocean]

that's when it starts to get fun

[sly topaz]

why would one be running more than one instance of IJ

[blazing ocean]

because I have to work on multiple parts of one codebase

that is not just a monorepo

[remote swallow]

rad do you not have workspaces

[odd sentinel]

if I'm releasing a major new update to a plugin that's effectively a new plugin I assume I should really create a new spigotmc entry for it?

[blazing ocean]

their gradle integration is horrid

[sly topaz]

it's one of the things I wish Jetbrains just stole from Visual Studio, just let me have a bunch of solutions all over my project tree 😔

[thorn isle]

don't you need to install IJ into multiple different directories if you want multiple concurrent instances? or are we just talking about multiple open projects/windows

[blazing ocean]

multiple open projects

[remote swallow]

entirely up to you, if its still the same concept you could just release an update

[sly topaz]

is it a new plugin as in, it does something completely different, or as in the internals have changed completely

because if it is still doing the same thing as base, I'd just release it as a new update - rewrite done

[odd sentinel]

it's the same concept but the internals are completely rewritten and it doesn't support the old one

I don't want to confuse people, especially if I release a minor update for the old one

[sly topaz]

why would it be minor if it is a rewrite

well, technically it could be if it didn't break anything but you said it doesn't support the old one, so I imagine you broke something

[odd sentinel]

no I'm saying that if the old one gets a minor update for future spigot updates, I don't want a mixed history of both

people won't switch overnight to the new one so I'll update the old one a while too

[sly topaz]

people don't really care honestly, they'd just complain that things aren't working as they used to

internals are something for you the developer to care, not the end user

so, if you decide to post a new plugin that does the same, while valid, I think it'd just be better to deprecate the old one if anything

[odd sentinel]

I think that depends but I think mainly I need to split this up

although fair, the old one has been mostly dead a while

[sly topaz]

just release an update saying if you're still using this, use x plugin now redirecting to your new plugin kek

[young knoll]

Meanwhile some modpacks take that just to run

[sly topaz]

some modpacks suck so that doesn't surprise me

[young knoll]

It was worse a few versions back

[sly topaz]

no care for base mechanics whatsoever, just keep all chunks loaded for my rlcraft machine

[young knoll]

Modern ones seem to behave a bit better

[thorn isle]

i've always wanted to run a modded server but it seems like nobody writes mods with scalability in mind

they tend to crash and burn even in singleplayer, let alone with a dozen concurrent players

[sly topaz]

even if they were made for scalability, it'd be a hard sell considering most mods don't try to augment the experience in a meaningful way, or change the perspective of the game in ways that make it compelling to play more than a day before it gets boring

you could add a thousand machines, give me a smartphone or make me able to throw kamehamehas but if that doesn't devolve into an actual mechanic I can mess around with, novelty alone isn't going to keep players around

[pale garnet]

toggle message as one player can toggle direct messages with another, where if toggled then it will redirect all their normal chat messages to the selected player as if they used /msg <selected player> but without needing to do it every time

[pale garnet]

im developing

[sly topaz]

so like channels, I see

usually you'd just have to set the recipients in the AsyncPlayerChatEvent

[paper viper]

Is there any faster way to do this 💀

I feel my wrists hurting...

[remote swallow]

add everything to the code config and use that to generate the default config

[paper viper]

Copilot is starting to hallucinate with these autocompletions

wont be too long before i start to too

[pale garnet]

does it work as a vanilla /msg

more like a normal chat message only a specified person can see

[young knoll]

That’s just a /message command

[pale garnet]

yeah i wanna do it automatically with a command toggle

[deep herald]

how do I get a specific enchanted book as an ItemStack?

https://bukkit.org/threads/how-do-i-create-an-enchanted-book-that-can-be-used-in-an-anvil.118669/#:~:text=public ItemStack addBookEnchantment(ItemStack item%2C Enchantment enchantment%2C int level){ EnchantmentStorageMeta meta %3D (EnchantmentStorageMeta) item.getItemMeta()%3B meta.addStoredEnchant(enchantment%2C level%2C true)%3B item.setItemMeta(meta)%3B return item%3B } I found this

[young knoll]

Cast meta to EnchantmentStorageMeta

And addStoredEnchantment

[deep herald]

thats what it does

https://i.e-z.host/xyrur2r9.png

[young knoll]

Then what’s the question

[deep herald]

nvm ig

[flat lark]

I tried to search up how to install local dependencies but issue is I've tried generating one but throws a error.

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

[sly topaz]

put the group id inbetween quotes

same with the version

[flat lark]

Also, I have it generated and put it in my pom.xml

I get a NoClassDefFoundError: https://paste.md-5.net/hexexayini.bash ? Do I have to put a use a repo for its location or is the because some sort of shading issue

[sly topaz]

shading issue most likely

what does your pom look like

[sly topaz]

just remove the scope and it should be good

[flat lark]

Got it

[sly topaz]

if it complains about there being multiple META-INFS, you can just add a filter for that

for licenses and/or notices there's specific transformers which merges them accordingly though

[quaint mantle]

running buildtools thru gui btw

[jagged thicket]

During login are the initial chunks in the view distance pre loaded and sent unlike other chunks?

[sly topaz]

what do you mean

they're loaded like any chunks I believe, you just don't see them loading in as it often happens fast enough for it to be covered by the loading terrain screen

not always though, if you have enough latency, you'll see them loading

[jagged thicket]

it is actually a weird thing

wait

wait, it isn't discord's fault, that's a damn 217mb recording lol

[jagged thicket]

yeah look at this

[sly topaz]

that's 314mb

are you not applying any encoding whatsoever? Lol

[jagged thicket]

Thats not me btw

[sly topaz]

well, whatever you're using to record, it sucks

[jagged thicket]

me and System32_ were testing it yesterday

it is his footage

[sly topaz]

tbf it is probably just a fault of their screen being too big or something and it having to record in 4k

orange do you speak spanish

[jagged thicket]

no

[paper viper]

Do you speak spanish

[sly topaz]

I am not sure what I was supposed to see there

[sly topaz]

I think my name makes it pretty clear

at the end it spawns ORANGE

[paper viper]

I took AP spanish

but now

[jagged thicket]

Ok see, the cat is spawned on PlayerChunkLoad event which is a paper specific event but that spawn doesn't happen during login because the 4*4 is pre loaded i believe

[paper viper]

after months of not speaking

I forgot it all

[sly topaz]

it isn't preloaded, it is just never unloaded for the player

packet is probably not resent as it stays on the client's cache

[sly topaz]

happens with any language tbf

I find it hard to keep my japanese level the same, as I don't have anyone to practice it with

[jagged thicket]

is it only for the initial 4*4 chunks?

[sly topaz]

it shouldn't be, no

does the same happen if you keep a chunk force loaded and relogin there

it might just be becuse those are spawn chunks

[jagged thicket]

not a spawn chunk issue

already confirmed that

[sly topaz]

but the player load chunk event should still be sent tho, I don't get it

[jagged thicket]

yeah its kinda weird

if the chunk is unloaded and re loaded it works again

only during login the event isn't called

[sly topaz]

can you check if the packet is sent

I mean, it should otherwise you wouldn't be able to see the chunks

it is probably something wrong with where the player chunk load event gets called

[jagged thicket]

the packet is recieved but the event is not fired

otherwise the chunks won't be visible no?

[sly topaz]

yeah

do you have your IDE and a server open

you can just debug it by placing a breakpoint on the instantiation of the PlayerChunkLoadEvent class

[jagged thicket]

@manic delta try this later!!

[sly topaz]

well actually not on instantation but on the sendChunk method of PlayerChunkSender class

[jagged thicket]

i was looking at the PlayerList Source and it seemed to call chunk loading earlier

wait leme show

[sly topaz]

you'll probably need paperweight userdev in order to place breakpoints on paper code though

[sly topaz]

does it call PlayerChunkSender#sendChunk anywhere, because that's where the PlayerChunkLoadEvent gets called

[jagged thicket]

line 373

[sly topaz]

what does getChunkSource return?

[jagged thicket]

ServerChunkCache

[sly topaz]

does addEntity manually send a ClientboundLevelChunkWithLightPacket anywhere?

I'll just compile paper and check myself lol

[jagged thicket]

alr

im trying not to make a code wall here lol

was trying to paste only the specific parts

[jagged thicket]

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

[left jay]

question, how is the data of vanilla weapons stored? like the attack damage / speed

[sly topaz]

they're stored in data components

though, both can be modified with an attribute

[left jay]

alr cool,

ill probs deal with that after i sleep tho, thanks for the answer

[manic delta]

actually i have a 4k screen

[manic delta]

Should I do that in the paper code?

[jagged thicket]

first can u just verify if the 4*4 chunks are even sent through packets / the event

in a seperate plugin

so debug can be easier

[thorn isle]

they can't not be sent, the client only sees sent chunks and the local chunk cache gets erased when disconnecting

i'm also fairly sure the client doesn't keep spawn chunks locally cached if they go out of the view distance

[manic delta]

Okay I'll see after uni

[hardy cairn]

heys guys i need some help, i am spawning some wither skeletons but they are getting immediately removed when thye are spawned https://pastebin.com/cKMik2QG

the version is 1.21.1

would really appreciate the help

[manic delta]

The difficulty is in pacific?

[thorn isle]

check whether the entity instance returned by spawn isValid; if it isn't, some plugin (e.g. worldguard) is cancelling the spawn event

you can use eventdebugger to see which plugin cancels the event

you can also have your own (pre)entity spawn listener that sets cancelled to false on HIGHEST for your own spawn events

if some plugin is removing the entity after the fact rather than cancelling its spawn event, figuring out which plugin that is and stopping it from doing it will be more difficult

if the entities are monsters (which wither skeletons are), you probably also want to call setRemoveWhenFarAway with false, to prevent them from despawning if no players are nearby

[slender elbow]

that is not even released yet

[worldly ingot]

Development builds

And the red warning above that says "do not use in production"

[nova cloud]

thanks!

[manic delta]

What

[nova cloud]

I bought the plugin in spigot, can I have it reflected on my account in https://phoenixdevt.fr/?

[vast ledge]

If you bought the plugin in spigot, you should be able to download it on spigot

[manic delta]

And why do you mention me?

[vast ledge]

God knows

[pale garnet]

someone ideas for vanilla enhancing commands/utilities for my custom plugins? i already have togglemsg plugin and inventoryutils plugin that has sethealth, sethunger, duplicate

all made on my own

[thorn isle]

define "enhancing"

[left jay]

ok question, i have a method that removes the damage attributes of an item
but im wondering if theres a way to remove the toolip from the item that says "while in main hand" without straight up hiding all the attributes

public void removeAttributes(ItemStack item) {
        if (item == null || item.getType().isAir()) {
            return;
        }

        ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
        if (meta == null) {
            return;
        }

        AttributeModifier damageModifier = new AttributeModifier(new NamespacedKey(plugin, "no_damage"), 0.0, AttributeModifier.Operation.ADD_NUMBER, EquipmentSlotGroup.ANY);

        meta.removeAttributeModifier(Attribute.GENERIC_ATTACK_DAMAGE);
        meta.addAttributeModifier(Attribute.GENERIC_ATTACK_DAMAGE, damageModifier);
        item.setItemMeta(meta);
    }```

[thorn isle]

removing the weapon item component might fare better, although i'm not sure if bukkit itemmeta lets you override the default item components like that

https://minecraft.wiki/w/Data_component_format#weapon

afaik there is no way to hide a specific attribute modifier from an item tooltip since it's per item component, and all attribute modifiers are in one single item component

[left jay]

ah jeez well

[cunning elk]

hello, im searching for a RaidingOutpost plugin (1.8)

[rough ibex]

1.8...?

what are you looking for it to do, 1.8 doesnt have raids

[blazing ocean]

backport 1.14 to 1.8

[cunning elk]

what are you talking about

[rough ibex]

what are you talking about

what is RaidingOutpost

[cunning elk]

no raid in 1.8

?

[rough ibex]

yeah. Its 1.8

ancient

[blazing ocean]

?howold 1.8

[undone axle]

https://howoldisminecraft.today/1.8

[rough ibex]

of course it doesnt have a 1.14 feature

[chrome beacon]

10 years 💀

[rough ibex]

for 1.8.0

[cunning elk]

1.8.9

[chrome beacon]

https://howoldisminecraft.today/1.8.9

[rough ibex]

Not much better

[cunning elk]

bro?

[rough ibex]

yes?

[cunning elk]

didnt you play 1.8 faction server ?

[rotund ravine]

When it was new suee

Sure

[blazing ocean]

sigh

[chrome beacon]

So you're not talking about minecraft raids

but faction raids

Time to head over to #help-server

[cunning elk]

yes iam

[rough ibex]

yeah outposts and raids = pillager

[chrome beacon]

?nocode

[undone axle]

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

[round finch]

Lmao then someone says my code don't work provides nothing besides that

[urban cloak]

hello

i got a question

[sly topaz]

?ask

[undone axle]

If you have a question, please just ask it. Don't look for staff or topic experts. Don't ask to ask or ask if people are awake or available. Just ask the question to the channel straight out, and wait patiently for a reply. Make sure you use the right channel regarding the topic of your question. Create a thread in case the channel is already in use!

[manic delta]

guys my code don't work

[jagged thicket]

lol

[sly topaz]

is it still that code that spawns cats on playerchunkload or something completely different

[jagged thicket]

@manic delta @sly topaz the event works properly https://paste.md-5.net/egayomemat.java

smth wrong with how your plugin handles it probably

even during login all chunks are sent

even the 4*4

[sly topaz]

did you teleport multiple times on login to check

[jagged thicket]

wdym

the blocks are fake blocks

so they reset on logout

[sly topaz]

I thought the issue was that chunks that weren't previously loaded don't trigger the PlayerChunkLoadEvent on login sometimes

[jagged thicket]

oh yeah how do i check that

[sly topaz]

and System32 seemed to teleport to various random places on login to test that

[sly topaz]

just teleport the player randomly in the join event ig

though ig the join event is too late

maybe PlayerSpawnLocationEvent?

[jagged thicket]

it seems to still work properly

[sly topaz]

no idea then what the issue was with System's plugin

[manic delta]

yea it does

[manic delta]

wtf but why for me no :sadge:

maybe bcs using 1.21.1?

[jagged thicket]

Nah we tried my fork right

that was 1.21.4

[manic delta]

oh sure

[jagged thicket]

check if the event works

in a seperate plugin

[manic delta]

ok

[sly topaz]

send your code here

I am starting to think it's just something wrong with your plugin

[manic delta]

ill open a repo

can you both give me your emails?

i dont want my code to be public lol

is for a server

[sly topaz]

[e-mail]

[jagged thicket]

[e-mail]

[manic delta]

or g username

ty

[sly topaz]

you just made me share my email

what if someone hacks me!!!

[jagged thicket]

lol

[manic delta]

haha

[jagged thicket]

i own orang3i.com currerntly

so i could make [e-mail] but i will probably forget to renew the domain and loose the access

[sly topaz]

is your name read orangel or orangei

[jagged thicket]

orange

[manic delta]

sent!

[jagged thicket]

its short for my old youtube name orange(infotainment)

[sly topaz]

I'll read it oran-gay

[jagged thicket]

LOL

its orang3i because someone owned orangei

[jagged thicket]

leme see

[manic delta]

damn

forgot to add gitignore

lol

[sly topaz]

I understand everything now

[manic delta]

pushed

haha

reload it

[sly topaz]

kotlin 😩

[manic delta]

yea sorry

https://github.com/system32developer/TestPlugin/blob/381454a4364111049de08a05b525a2967557306b/src/main/kotlin/com/system32/schooldaysPets/Pet.kt#L70-L117 this code is on testing so dont blame me if it sucks

the thing about chunks is on PetManager

[jagged thicket]

https://github.com/system32developer/TestPlugin/blob/main/src/main/kotlin/com/system32/schooldaysPets/pet/objects/PetManager.kt

this right

[sly topaz]

don't be, I am just old and stuck in my ways but kotlin is usually a fine choice

[manic delta]

yes

https://github.com/system32developer/TestPlugin/blob/381454a4364111049de08a05b525a2967557306b/src/main/kotlin/com/system32/schooldaysPets/pet/objects/PetManager.kt#L265

here to be exact

[jagged thicket]

at a glance it looks nothing weird

idk why the 4*4 isn't triggering the event

[manic delta]

Yes, I literally spent 2 days looking for what was wrong

[sly topaz]

I think the issue could possibly be your map keys

[manic delta]

and that's why I put ChunkKey thing

[jagged thicket]

wait try placing blocks on each loaded chunk to mark the chunks loaded

[manic delta]

petsinchunks map?

[sly topaz]

yes

[manic delta]

ill try without the code logic

just with that

[jagged thicket]

try even with code logic first

[manic delta]

yea

[sly topaz]

you're creating a new object and using that to retrieve the chunk, and I don't know if kotlin's data class hashCode implementation is consistent enough to just be creating new objects and expect same result

[manic delta]

https://github.com/system32developer/TestPlugin/blob/381454a4364111049de08a05b525a2967557306b/src/main/kotlin/com/system32/schooldaysPets/pet/storage/Storage.kt#L202-L209
At the end i gave up and fixed with it

ill try with placing block

[jagged thicket]

        // Place a gold block at the center top of the chunk
        int centerX = chunk.getX() << 4 | 8;
        int centerZ = chunk.getZ() << 4 | 8;
        int y = chunk.getWorld().getHighestBlockYAt(centerX, centerZ);

        Block block = chunk.getWorld().getBlockAt(centerX, y, centerZ);
        block.setType(Material.GOLD_BLOCK);
    }```

just call this function

[manic delta]

ok ok

let me try

[jagged thicket]

and pass the event.getChunk()

[sly topaz]

even less so considering it is based on the property values and ChunkKey has a String as property

[jagged thicket]

but its consistently ingoring the 4*4 radius

tho

[manic delta]

yea thats weird

[sly topaz]

add a println before and after the return there just in case tho

or rather, set a breakpoint if you do know how to use your IDE's debugger

[manic delta]

ye i know how to use it

[jagged thicket]

but yeah remove this logic temporarily and place blocks with markChunk first

[manic delta]

yep ill do that

my ram is going on fire

🔥

[sly topaz]

why lol

do you have a mc instance, ij and a server open

[manic delta]

16gb are not enough

[sly topaz]

that hurts my processor more than it does my ram

I do wonders with 8gb, you'll do fine with 16

[jagged thicket]

for me 16gb its fine for that maybe its the cpu yeah

[manic delta]

what processor do you have

[sly topaz]

Celeron N4020 on this laptop

[jagged thicket]

ryzen 5 3500x

[manic delta]

i have a amd ryzen 5 5600 H

damn

[jagged thicket]

lol laptop?

[sly topaz]

yeah, government gifted

[manic delta]

yes

[sly topaz]

I got an amd athlon 320ge on my desktop but I usually use the laptop more as I have more things setup here

[jagged thicket]

this clock speed is good but core count is low

weird combo

you were talking about getting a new cpu right @sly topaz

[manic delta]

i should see something like this right

[jagged thicket]

yea

[manic delta]

ok so my code is not the issue

[sly topaz]

yeah, a 5080xt3d or whatever it is called

[manic delta]

let me record

[sly topaz]

I got this desktop just because I knew the motherboard had an am4 socket and a chipset that'd support it

[manic delta]

wtf

wait

it is weird

[jagged thicket]

also show code snippet

[manic delta]

the blocks doesnt place at the first

but after some seconds yeah

i think

idk

[jagged thicket]

show recording yeah

i think the code i sent you places permanent blocks

so you should try in new world ig?

so check again

[sly topaz]

would your PC explode if you just shared screen on a voice channel

[manic delta]

if i restart the server with intellij run buttom everythings rollback

[jagged thicket]

alrr

[jagged thicket]

yeah share screen lol

[manic delta]

see wtf

[manic delta]

nope

only if i do it with 4k

wait the video size is 274 mb lol

[sly topaz]

4k is not necessary dw lol

[sly topaz]

set whatever recording software you use to record at 1080 or 720 smh

[manic delta]

i think im using 1080

[sly topaz]

why is discord's bandwidth for downloading videos so ass

[manic delta]

oh wait im recording with 120fps

lmao

[sly topaz]

why 120, just do 60 and set a lower bitrate

35 Mbps should be fine for 4k

do your fans go brr with these settings lol, my laptop would catch on fire

[jagged thicket]

that video is still downloading for me lol

[sly topaz]

same, discord's bandwidth is ass

[manic delta]

damn

sorry

haha

[jagged thicket]

whaat it is so weird for you

[manic delta]

yea

[jagged thicket]

for me it places on every chunk

[manic delta]

i really DONT UNDERSTAND WHY

[manic delta]

and thats literally all the code

[jagged thicket]

LOL

you are doing on chunk unload event

not chunk load

[manic delta]

oh

makes sense

lmao

[jagged thicket]

Do the opposite

[manic delta]

yea mb

i have too many events on that class

it works here

but why not with my code

i dont understand why

[jagged thicket]

then smth wrong with how your code handles spawning ig

[manic delta]

I did a println for each chunk in the event using my normal code and the 4x4 ones didn't go through there, I put it before all the code

[sly topaz]

put a higher priority to your event?

[jagged thicket]

now also do the pet logic along with block placement

and try

[manic delta]

ok

[sly topaz]

though it isn't cancellable so it shouldn't be the case that you aren't receiving the event

[manic delta]

mmm weird

ill try

HIGHEST?

[sly topaz]

it's in reverse

lowest gets called first

highest last

[manic delta]

oh really?

[jagged thicket]

The event does work here tho so even in the 4*4

[manic delta]

i did not know that

[sly topaz]

yeah, the logic is that if your event handler has the highest priority, then it should be the last to run so that whatever changes you do to the event are the ones that persist

then lower priority event handlers would get overriden in that scenario

I'm still convinced it is about the map keys having inconsistent hashcodes

ah but you did say you put a print before all code and it still wasn't called

[jagged thicket]

OK then can we iterate through the mapkeys and place blocks

to test that one

[manic delta]

trying that

[manic delta]

The block should be set when I enter, because the chunk is supposed to pass through the event, but it doesn't, but if I move away and come back, it does.

[sly topaz]

your video is playable through discord's player now lol

[manic delta]

nice

[sly topaz]

what does your code look like now?

just send a screenshot if you don't want to push it to the repo

[sly topaz]

what happens if you put markChunk before the assignment of pets variable

[manic delta]

it marks every chunk

[sly topaz]

then it is what I mentioned

don't use ChunkKey as key, use something with a consistent hash code

[manic delta]

like what?

[sly topaz]

what type is a chunk x/z, integer or double?

[manic delta]

int

[mental moon]

Coming straight here since the Bundle API is still pretty new.
I'm making an inventory GUI and I have the thought of making the scrolling selection of items in a bundle into their own Icons that a player could click, however from within the InventoryClickEvent and BundleMeta I can't seem to find the item that was selected from scrolling through the Bundle at the time of the event firing.
Anyone here know more about this than me?
I have a video showcasing how the rest of my Icons work, and the Lore on the Bundle describes my desired functionality.

[jagged thicket]

val key = Pair(chunk.x, chunk.z)
val pets = petsByChunk[key]

try smth like this?

[sly topaz]

you could just pack them in a long then

[manic delta]

let me try

[sly topaz]

long packed = ((long) x << 32) | (z & 0xFFFFFFFFL)

[jagged thicket]

or this ^

[manic delta]

wtf

ive never seen that

[sly topaz]

int x = (int) (packed >>> 32);
int z = (int) packed;

to unpack it

[jagged thicket]

we also need to store world name

right

[sly topaz]

you can just have a map per world tbh

[manic delta]

well he will use one world anyway

[jagged thicket]

so yeah then try longs

[sly topaz]

// packing the X/Z values
val packed = (x.toLong() shl 32) or (z.toLong() and 0xFFFFFFFF)
// unpacking them
val x = (packed shr 32).toInt()
val z = packed.toInt()

this is how you would do it in kotlin apparently

[sly topaz]

did you try in survival

creative tends to make inventory events wacky

[mental moon]

Yeah, still points to the Bundle itself rather than any item selected within it

[sly topaz]

what does the code look like

just the part that accepts and denies should be fine

oh wait, are you having trouble with that part in of itself?

the selected item should be the cursor, technically speaking

[mental moon]

Let me see if it's on the cursor.
It's a bit of a cluster, but here's my EventListener anyways

Hello, I currently am making a minecraft plugin and I want to publish it into my maven local and when I do the publishInMavenLocal task, it works fine and it creates folder but I can't import it anywhere...

[sly topaz]

yeah looks fine to me

[mental moon]

Can confirm it never touches the Cursor.
The event it canceled as soon as it sees that it's within one of my menus.

[sly topaz]

in survival?

[jagged thicket]

    fun onLoadChunk(event: PlayerChunkLoadEvent) {
        val key = ChunkKey(event.chunk.world.name, event.chunk.x, event.chunk.z)
        val pets = petsByChunk[key] ?: return

        for (pet in pets) {
            if (pet.exist()) continue
            pet.spawn(fromLocation(pet.getData("last_location")))
            if (pet.hasData("behavior")) {
                val fromData = PetBehavior.valueOf(pet.getData("behavior"))
                pet.behavior = fromData
                if (fromData == PetBehavior.SIT) {
                    pet.sit()
                }
            }
        }
    }

is it not pushed for me yet

[mental moon]

Yes, no matter the gamemode.

[sly topaz]

let me try make something similar real fast and see if it works for me ig

[mental moon]

That part is intended since the event is canceled upon click.
I don't know if the API has a way to get to that selected item.

[sly topaz]

I mean, the selected item technically goes to the cursor, but that's before cancellation

maybe try getting the cursor before cancelling it

do make sure to be in survival as the cursor on creative is completely client-sided and will throw you for a loop

[jagged thicket]

nvm i was on a diff branch lol

i think this has to fix the issue

otheriwse smth is cooked

[manic delta]

ill try it tmr

im sleeping

[jagged thicket]

alr

[sly topaz]

tbf I only gave it a quick glance so it could be anything, but it marking all chunks after putting the function before the return statement validating the map makes me believe it is indeed that

I can give a more in depth look afterwards, there's some thing I might offer might unsolicited advice on as well

[mental moon]

Moved it to before cancellation to the same effect.
I'm confident I could get it if I waited a tick, but the Menu only works if the event is canceled.
I'm remembering theres some kind of scroll event related to the hotbar, I'll snoop there

[sly topaz]

I don't believe the client tells the server anything about the bundle inventory, but I could be wrong

[mental moon]

This is unfortunately what I'm seeing too.
No way that I can see to get the scoll index to even reference the bundle's ItemStack[] contents and pull it there.

[fresh mesa]

Trying to implement adding custom food items to spigot 1.21, how to create also custom models?
any idea?

[blazing ocean]

resource packs

[fresh mesa]

No any possible way without it?
I hate making them wait for that screen..

[blazing ocean]

no

the resources have to come from somewhere

I will never understand the hate against using resource packs

[fresh mesa]

Can you give me links for tutorials how to create custom items or foods and blocks with models?

[fresh mesa]

no, i get it, i Just thought it possible without, but now it makes sense

[blazing ocean]

https://youtu.be/Cw8PPPEl_IQ if you're using 1.21.5 and above, the custom model data section doesn't apply anymore, but the rest is still the same

[fresh mesa]

Thanks!

[sly topaz]

in recent versions you can technically send the resource pack on the configuration phase so it isn't too bad

only technically because Spigot has no API for it and the behavior itself is apparently broken on Spigot or so people have said before

[smoky anchor]

Alternative is heads
But those may have the issue of being placeable

[fresh mesa]

I tried, but there is no much what to do with it..

[smoky anchor]

lmao
give the item the block reach attribute, but negative
So player literally can not interact with any blocks and thus can only eat the item XD

[cursive kite]

What is the best way to reference a boss entity, using LivingEntity breaks once the unchunk unloads

[smoky anchor]

UUID would work

[cursive kite]

I considered that but what is the best way to pull it again, expensive to loop all entities in the world when I need to grab the health

[fresh mesa]

But there is no animtion of eating how can it be appetizing?

[smoky anchor]

Add the food and consumable components

[chrome beacon]

Don't need to loop

There's a getEntity method that takes a uuid

[cursive kite]

Ah is it within World object

[snow kelp]

Hey in my Mod when I click the Bar I my Minecraft Crashes. Im on Mac, for my friend on windows everything works fine. Can someone please help me and check the crash report?

[drowsy helm]

Spigot doesn't have anything to do with mods

or do you mean plugin?

[snow kelp]

I mean mod, but maybe heres a modder who can help me. 😦

I can pay if someone wants.

[thorn isle]

nuh

[smoky anchor]

1. Do not crosspost
2. Wrong server completely
3. No, don't pay someone for that wtf
4. Your issue is Mac, get an actual computer
5. Depending on mod loader, go to their server, find the right channel or one closest to it and post all info you can

[thorn isle]

get an actual computer

Im using InvUI (https://docs.xenondevs.xyz/invui/). I am not sure how I can create like a confirm system within the ui due to the fact the only function it gives you is when the input changes.

[thorn isle]

no clue what a confirm system is but presumably you'd use handleClick or some derivative like it's used to increment/decrement a count here

[karmic mural]

Wanting to store custom data on the entity itself. I've usually used PDC but is there something else I should consider? I'd be storing a couple integers and datetime objects

[smoky anchor]

PDC works perfectly for this, I do not believe spigot provides anything else
And there should not be any reason to reinvent the wheel for a few values

[thorn isle]

pdc is the intended facility for this yes

[blazing ocean]

no, the pdc is the best option

[thorn isle]

well, the only exception is if you need to access the data while the entity is unloaded

[karmic mural]

Cheers, just wanted to make sure I wasn't completely out of date as it's been a while since I made any plugins

[thorn isle]

in that case you might want to consider a database or some such

[primal stirrup]

I am currently working on an plugin and trying to set an items lore in an GUI but somehow it does not work/wants to set the lore in the GUI, anyone that knows about such an issue?

[young knoll]

?nocode

[undone axle]

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

[primal stirrup]

There should be an lore

[rotund ravine]

hasLore

[primal stirrup]

Yes it has an lore check that as well

Otherwise if it would be null it would put "no lore"

[young knoll]

Where are you actually making the item

[primal stirrup]

In the GUI creation where it sets the lore of the item

This sets the lore in the item meta so it should be set and it is set but not displaying in the GUI which I am opening

[rotund ravine]

I feel like I’m missing a few things.

[primal stirrup]

Which part would you like to see?

The append lore just calles this method to set the lore

[chrome beacon]

How are you making that itemstack

Like all of the calls on it

[primal stirrup]

So I am creating an CustomItem and set the ItemStack

[chrome beacon]

Any item flags?

[primal stirrup]

Nope,

That is all done later with Item Meta which is only called when needed.

[chrome beacon]

So no item flags on that skull?

[primal stirrup]

Basically the whole item with the lore gets retrieved correctly only the moment it should display the lore it does nothing

I even created just an new GUI with nothing in it still the same issue

[chrome beacon]

So you're not adding any item flags?

[primal stirrup]

the lore underneed it should be the same as the other button

[chrome beacon]

Still haven't gotten an answer

[primal stirrup]

No, only the Item Meta and than the lore field

[rotund ravine]

So u got some lore methods issues, or concurrency issues / object instance

[chrome beacon]

item flags are part of the item meta

I'm just making sure that you did not put the hide lore item flag

[rotund ravine]

😫

[chrome beacon]

that would not be the first time I've seen that happen if so

[rotund ravine]

I hope not

[primal stirrup]

No I did not, but I will investigate

[rotund ravine]

Try setting the item back in the inventory after rrunning ur modifications

[primal stirrup]

btw I have also an button with the command block which shows an default lore

[chrome beacon]

Some people just went addItemFlags(ItemFlag.values()) and then the lore went away

wondering why 💀

[chrome beacon]

That lore is clientside

It is different from your regular lore

For safety reasons

[worldly ingot]

It should only show up if it has a command in its NBT though

A standard command block should be fine, I think?

[primal stirrup]

Yea the lore is client side, I am currently checking all flags.

[worldly ingot]

Also, yes, technically it's not NBT anymore lol

[primal stirrup]

Okay I made sure that all flags are not there but it still somehow does not show up

I double checked if the lore it empty but its not the false false are checks for the hasEnchantments and Item info

[quartz gull]

are you sure your config contents are being retrieved correctly

[quartz gull]

assuming this is retrieving information from the config

[robust helm]

chat should i use postgresql or mariadb?

[quartz gull]

purely preference on your part. I like to use postgresql

[robust helm]

i have zero experience in sql databases

or like

1 hour of struggling with both of them

[quartz gull]

its not very hard

hold on

[robust helm]

whats more popular in companies?

[quartz gull]

heres sql https://github.com/Fotohh/Reputation/blob/main/src/main/java/me/xaxis/reputation/handle/SqliteUtility.java

[quartz gull]

postgresql is better i guess. however each have their own use cases. So to each their own

[robust helm]

hm ill prob look into the syntax first then. thank u!

[robust helm]

that elephant does look nice

its decided!

[primal stirrup]

Yes I am sure, so in the image show it shows the buttons being set. The lore is retrieved its not empty, but it does not show the lore.

It might be the p.updateInventory() but I wouldn't assume it is as it works for 1.21.4 and lower.

[chrome beacon]

Still haven't showed us how that item is created

so we cannot try and recreate the issue

[chrome beacon]

(you've only showed incomplete parts)

If you don't want to share your code make a minimal reproducable example

[smoky oak]

how does buildtools decide what to put under latest? its still saying 1.21.4 for me

[chrome beacon]

It will be changed to 1.21.5 when it's considered stable

[primal stirrup]

Okay this is where the button is called/created from the place in the GUI until the sending to the player.
So the menu extends an class called GUI which has an construct method where the button creation is in see first image, than in the button creation it sets the material and adds the lore in the other shown images.
The CustomItem is an class which basically holds the ItemStack and its properties, than in the GUI class it creates the full GUI including the button assigning.

That is from where the button is created until the button is set (exactly like I showed before)

[chrome beacon]

oh no detecting inventories by name

[mortal hare]

I wonder how good is to use final keyword on methods in java. While this might sound counter intuitive usually to make methods not overrideable but you can setup for example abstract classes which act like in a sense immutable classes/records with which you guarantee from design perspective that data will be always immutable and safe no matter what the implementation is:

public abstract class Foo {
  private final int data1;
  private final int data2;
  private final int data3;

  public Foo(int data1, int data2, int data3) {
    this.data1 = data1;
    this.data2 = data2;
    this.data3 = data3;
  }

  public final int getData1() {
    return this.data1;
  }

  public final int getData2() {
    return this.data2;
  }

  public final int getData3() {
    return this.data3;
  }

  public abstract void DoSomething();
}


public class Bar extends Foo {
  public void Bar(int data1, int data2, int data3) {
    super(data1, data2, data3);
  }

  public void DoSomething() {
    System.out.println("Doing something");
  }
  // Cant override immutable getters good, its unsafe. Also if you override existing getters, are you sure you're writing good code anyways?
}

sure this is kinda annoying from modders perspective, but imo it could allow for bugprone code since you cant override immutable data, just like you can if you've implemented interface or overriden class methods without final keyword.

what do you guys think? Ik not everybody would like this, but you know me guys i like to experiment with OOP design overall so im thinking how to utilize things properly to ensure bugprone code

[chrome beacon]

Time to make a minimal reproducable example

[primal stirrup]

You can't make the private variables final if you set them in the contrsuctor.
You can how ever make the get..() method final.

This will ensure that you can't modify the values

[mortal hare]

you.. can?

[chrome beacon]

^^ you can

[spare marsh]

How to avoid your GUI being use to dupe wit UI Utils?

How does UI Utils even work?

[chrome beacon]

It simply skips sending the inventory close packet to the server

causing the inventory close event to not be fired

[primal stirrup]

So the weird thing is that the moment it is set the meta data returns the lore but it doesn't show all the properties are there so thats the weird part.

[spare marsh]

Hi Greez

[primal stirrup]

Hey

[chrome beacon]

Track your inventory instance and reopen it instead of making a new one

if it hasn't been closed

[mortal hare]

honestly why dont we have abstract records

[spare marsh]

I'm java4life

[primal stirrup]

aaaa how you doing

[spare marsh]

Doing good.

[primal stirrup]

No idea

[spare marsh]

I'm still a bit confused on how that works

[chrome beacon]

hm? what part

[spare marsh]

All of it Haha

Like I'm looking on how to avoid duplications with it

with UI Utils

[chrome beacon]

A normal client will tell the server that they closed their inventory. What tools like that do is skip that part allowing you to exit the inventory without the server knowing. When a player then opens the inventory again you recreate the inventory with new items causing the dupe

Since the saving items that were removed happens in the close event which isn't fired

[spare marsh]

Ohhhh

[primal stirrup]

Here is an example of how you could use it:

public abstract class Foo {
    private int data1;
    private int data2;
    private int data3;

    public Foo(int data1, int data2, int data3) {
        this.data1 = data1;
        this.data2 = data2;
        this.data3 = data3;
    }

    public final int getData1() {
        return this.data1;
    }

    public final int getData2() {
        return this.data2;
    }

    public final int getData3() {
        return this.data3;
    }

    public abstract void doSomething();
}

public final class Bar extends Foo {
    public Bar(int data1, int data2, int data3) {
        super(data1, data2, data3);
    }

    @Override
    public void doSomething() {
        System.out.println("Doing something");
    }
}```

Because the variables are already private they can't be changed in the other classes. So if you create an method that does something with the values you can retrieve them with the get methods or create static `.setData1(int data1)` to set the data.
This allows you to control which data is modified if needed.

[chrome beacon]

in short, don't rely on the InventoryCloseEvent

have a fallback

[mortal hare]

java pls port this from c#:

public abstract record Foo(int data1, int data2, int data3) {
  public abstract void DoSomething();
}

public record Bar(int data1, int data2, int data3) : Foo {
  public override void DoSomething() {
    Console.WriteLine("Doing something");
  }
}

[chrome beacon]

Problem is records already extend a class

so if you try to extend a record with another record it'd be extending two classes

[mortal hare]

make a new class then

RecordClass or smth

[spare marsh]

So like it won't even inventories that you can't modify?

[mortal hare]

oh well that would break ABI with current impl of records

🙂

[chrome beacon]

record Bar(int c) extends Foo, Record

wouldn't work

[chrome beacon]

Not sure what you mean?

[mortal hare]

record Foo(int c) extends RecordClass
record Bar(int c) extends Foo
would but that would break applications which rely on current impl of records

unless JVM would convert that bytecode somehow

[chrome beacon]

Yeah you can do that but it would require a change in spec

[spare marsh]

Basically if I have an inventory that is only a menu with clickable options, it doesn't affect that one because you don't modify anything on there

[chrome beacon]

and how the system works

doable ig 🤷‍♂️

[chrome beacon]

yeah then it doesn't matter

[spare marsh]

Got it, thanks!

[chrome beacon]

I do wonder if that causes it to leak memory though

I'm not sure how the server handles that tbh

[chrome beacon]

It diffidently could on your end if you track the instance and don't clean things on player quit

[mortal hare]

in java

[mortal hare]

in c#

what a difference in terms of how much to write lol

no hate i love java
