[ebon abyss]

@ebon shoal wrap your strings in quotation marks

& is sometimes a special character in yaml

[ebon shoal]

alright

[woeful crescent]

never mind I have to go, sorry

[ebon shoal]

but what about "Gamemode:"

[ebon abyss]

as I said earlier, not an issue

[ebon shoal]

oh

ok ill try wrapping the strings

[ebon abyss]

probably should've wrapped the no-permission one in quotes too but that parses

[eternal oxide]

" or ' https://paste.md-5.net/onepaciwad.shell

[brittle badger]

is it possible to turn a playerhead itemstack into a block?

[ebon shoal]

ty i dont have errors now

[ebon abyss]

set the block to a skull, get the block state, set the owning player

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/block/Block.html#getState()
https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/block/Skull.html

[brittle badger]

thanks

another question, how can i set a falling block to despawn in a tick

also for some reason, fallingblock doesnt work with skulls, is there a workaround?

[ebon abyss]

just make a scheduled task with no delay to destroy it?

[ebon abyss]

...?

[brittle badger]

the fallingblock is invisible

[sleek pond]

What

Skulls aren't gravity blocks

[brittle badger]

i spawned them as fallingblocks

[sleek pond]

That probly why it doesn't work

[brittle badger]

?

[young knoll]

Some not-full-block blocks just don't render when falling

[lost matrix]

Someone willing to help me find a circular reference that causes a Gson StackOverflow?

[eternal oxide]

post some code noob

well the error helps too 😉

Am I going to be flooded with a book sized set of classes now

[lost matrix]

https://gist.github.com/Flo0/d71dcfb44c3a828c68ef6a6f08986d8e

GsonProvider is just a utility class where i can dynamically register type adapters.
The ItemStackAdapter and NamespacedKeyAdapter work perfectly fine.

The stack trace is really not helpful but here you go:
https://gist.github.com/Flo0/acbcf2b00c78cb6c9ce04e8244f22553

The serialized class is RecipeManager
The method in question is FileManager#persistRecipeManager(RecipeManager)

Maybe i should add this important detail:
The deserialisation only flows into a StackOverflow if the manager was desierialized once then serialized again.
Not when a clean RecipeManager is serialized.

The serialisation happens with this method

  public RecipeManager loadOrCreateRecipeManager() {
    if (!this.recipesFile.exists()) {
      return new RecipeManager();
    }
    RecipeManager recipeManager = null;
    try {
      final String json = Files.readString(this.recipesFile.toPath());
      recipeManager = GsonProvider.fromJson(json, RecipeManager.class); // Here
      recipeManager.registerAllPostSerialisation();
    } catch (final IOException e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return recipeManager == null ? new RecipeManager() : recipeManager;
  }

[spring fog]

Is it possible to spawn a structure for the pre-generated structures list?
For example, a method to spawn a full-blown Taiga village in front of the player (i don't care about lag)

Preferably without having to 'build' the structure with Minecraft's current structures (such as how everything is split up into an absurd amount of different pieces and parts)

[young knoll]

You'll probably need to start it with NMS and then trigger all the Jigsaw blocks

[lost matrix]

I dont think there is a simple way for this as structure creation happens during chunk generation

[eternal oxide]

So its deserializing to the wrong object and only errors when resaved/loaded

[spring fog]

hmmm

[lost matrix]

The resulting json looks exactly like you would imagine

[spring fog]

Is it at least possible to generate a structure of any kind with chests with loot tables (rather than static contents)?

[lost matrix]

So if its serialized into this json file and then deserialized again it all works fine. But then the next serialization to json causes a StackOverflow for some reason...

[young knoll]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/loot/Lootable.html#setLootTable(org.bukkit.loot.LootTable)

[lost matrix]

It is possible. But you will have to decide if you want to dig into NMS for that (Because i dont think there is a simple API for that)
Or if you want to create your own solution.

[spring fog]

welp

[lost matrix]

One way would be using WorldEdit for pasting schematics and then getting all TileEntities in the affected chunks and generate loot for each state that inherits from InventoryHolder

[spring fog]

Ah WorldEdit schematics may work for what I'm doing

[young knoll]

I mean I did just show an API for that

[brittle badger]

how can i find all entities right in front of a player?

[spring fog]

Oh I know I saw, sorry for not responding lol.

I just mean everything else I'm doing may work with WorldEdit

[lost matrix]

Either create a BoundingBox in front of the player or ray trace with a big radius.

[spring fog]

I just effectively need something to allow me to just place down an entire damn village within a command

[eternal oxide]

I'm going to guess the issue is in here recipeManager.registerAllPostSerialisation(); as this is the only thing that seems could add anything post serialization/deserialization.

[young knoll]

If you save the schematic with loottables it can be loaded with loottables

[spring fog]

Without me needing to spend weeks lmfao

[lost matrix]

Thats the same thought i also had because its the only real difference between the deserialized and the vanilla instance.
But commenting that out doesnt make any difference.

But ill re try just to be safe

[brittle badger]

so this? ```RayTraceResult rayTraceEntities = event.getPlayer().getWorld().rayTraceEntities(event.getPlayer().getEyeLocation(), event.getPlayer().getEyeLocation().getDirection(), 3);

that doesnt work

[lost matrix]

This would only trace a thin line. I think there is a method on World where you can specify the size of the ray.

[lost matrix]

Didnt change anything. Another difference is the protected no args constructor that is being invoked in the CustomExactShapedRecipe class...
Ill just have to make each field transient until i find the one that causes problems.

[vague cypress]

This might be a strange question, but I'm trying to make a server hosted off of my pc with port-forwarding and when I go to open the "server" java application I can see a window pop up for a second and then close. Any way to fix this?

[eternal oxide]

You need #help-server Hint you didn't accept the eula

[vague cypress]

No eula ever popped up...

[brittle badger]

how can i get all entities in a bounding box?

[lost matrix]

World has a method for this

[brittle badger]

found it

why doesnt this work?

BoundingBox bb = BoundingBox.of(event.getPlayer().getLocation(), 1, 2, 1);
        Collection<Entity> entities = event.getPlayer().getWorld().getNearbyEntities(bb);
        for (Entity e : entities) {
            if (e == null) {return;}
            if (!(e instanceof Snowball)) {return;}
            Snowball snowball = (Snowball) e;
            if (!Objects.equals(snowball.getCustomName(), "Dodgeball")) {return;}
            snowball.setVelocity(snowball.getVelocity().multiply(-1));
            System.out.println("WOOT!");
            snowball.setTicksLived(0);
        }```

[eternal oxide]

you are returnign out of the for loop, continue

[lost matrix]

If you return then the whole method just exists.
So if the first entity is not a snowball everything just stops there.
You need to use continue in order to continue the loop

[brittle badger]

thanks!

[brittle badger]

is it possible to prevent a falling block from becoming a block

[lost matrix]

Sure listen for the EntityChangeBlockEvent and check if the entity is instanceof FallingBlock
Then cancel it

[drowsy crest]

Hey hey! How would I go about viewing net.minecraft server code? I understand to modify this, need to use reflection. I want to do some stuff with wandering villager trades

[lost matrix]

You only need reflections for specific cases. Do you use maven?

[drowsy crest]

I use gradle

[lost matrix]

Then change the spigot-api artifact to just spigot
And make sure the BuildTools ran at least once so the sources are installed in your local maven repository.

[drowsy crest]

hmm when I change

    compileOnly 'org.spigotmc:spigot-api:1.16.5-R0.1-SNAPSHOT'
}```
to
```dependencies {
    compileOnly 'org.spigotmc:spigot:1.16.5-R0.1-SNAPSHOT'
}```

doesn't seem to do anything or am I wrong

[drowsy crest]

Oh I see

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

[crude charm]

    public void onDamage(){
        Events.subscribe(EntityDamageEvent.class)
                .handler(e -> {

                    Player player = (Player) e.getEntity();
//                    if (!(e.getEntityType() == EntityType.PLAYER)) return;

                    player.sendMessage("You took damage!");
                    e.setDamage(0);
//                    e.setCancelled(true);
                });

why is this not working? it prints the debug message.

and my //'s are just for testing

[lost matrix]

Events.subscribe <- what this?

[lusty cipher]

Which JDK / language version should one use for building Bukkit plugins for versions 1.14 to 1.16?

[crude charm]

api

[drowsy crest]

    @EventHandler
    public void EntityDamagListener(EntityDamageEvent event) {

        if (event.getEntity() instanceof Player) {
            // blah do stuff
        }
        
        
    }```

[young knoll]

Should probably still compile with java 8 compat

[drowsy crest]

think that should be code

[crude charm]

no

[lusty cipher]

galacticraft dev also does bukkit :o?

[drowsy crest]

and register the event in your main class

[crude charm]

I do

[lusty cipher]

So JDK 16 is fine if I set it to language version 8?

[drowsy crest]

🤫

[crude charm]

the event works

[young knoll]

Mhm

[crude charm]

but canceling doesent

[young knoll]

I imagine this is an issue with whatever API

[drowsy crest]

I don't have any public plugins. Mostly private on friends server. Other day I ran into MJR here so MC community is pretty small 😛

[crude charm]

cant be

[young knoll]

Or an issue with other plugins

[lusty cipher]

oh lol, yeah especially in the dev part there's many people you see here and there

[drowsy crest]

^

[drowsy crest]

for context, what are you trying to do

[crude charm]

make it so people cant take damage

[young knoll]

You can try increasing the priority to highest

That will hopefully rule out any other plugins messing with it

[crude charm]

ok

it seems to work half the time

but fall damage and lava work

but drowning does

by does I mean u dont and doesent means you do

after adding a method named "solveWorldHunger" it seems to work lmfao

[quaint mantle]

Small question, would it be to heavy to put the mute check query on chat event ?

[crude charm]

yes

check if the player is muted when they join

and then use an array list

[quaint mantle]

Check if they are mute when they join then just put them in a list

[crude charm]

copy cat

[quaint mantle]

nah

already was typeing

[crude charm]

[quaint mantle]

Xd, had this on login event first. I'll revert it back then 🙂

[young knoll]

I mean it’s an async event

So it probably doesn’t matter too much

[crude charm]

yea it does, if u query every time it will

a) lag
b) delay the "you are muted" message

[young knoll]

But yes you should always cache database access

It won’t lag the server

[crude charm]

the db

[young knoll]

But yes it will delay the message

[crude charm]

if 100 people are getting if they are muted at the same time

the db will lag

[young knoll]

That’s the databases problem :p

[crude charm]

it doesent have to be if you optimise the code

[quaint mantle]

Could just remove the message :p

[crude charm]

then it looks dumb

if they type and it does nothing

[quaint mantle]

That's true :p

if your db is lagging when checking if 100 people are muted at once your db might be underpowered

[floral schooner]

hey so I have all these plugins in my plugins folder but when I restart WE doesn't show up?

[stone sinew]

#help-server would be the better channel. Also post your latest.log after remove private information.

[drowsy crest]

My method seems to work after testing w/o any other plugins

Try EventPriority.LOWEST

It is counter-intuitive w/o looking at the java docs haha. First time I've done priorities, had the same issue

wait no for your case, maybe no? Think I'm thinking in Forge right now. 2am coding right now

but glad you got it

[cinder thistle]

Event priority should be first to last rather than low to high

[quaint mantle]

[vast dome]

does anyone know of a way to put a block onto an armor stand? ive tried

``` but it didnt work

[eternal oxide]

nothing wrong with that code

did you try creating an actual helmet and trying that first?

[vast dome]

well i just tried

ArmorStand block = (ArmorStand) location.getWorld().spawnEntity(location, EntityType.ARMOR_STAND);
block.setHelmet(new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND_HELMET));

but the armor stand didnt get a helmet

[stone sinew]

Debug. Check if code is even activating

[vast dome]

i just right clicked the armor stand and got a helmet but it doesnt show

[humble heath]

this line causes an error in my console

PrivateVailt.menu = (Map<String, ItemStack[]>)PlayerData.getPlayerDataConfig().get("menu", new HashMap<>());

[vast dome]

ok well the dirt block randomly worked but is there a way to make it so that there is a dirt block in place of it but not down scaled to the head

[eternal oxide]

What error other than an unchecked cast warning?

[humble heath]

https://pastebin.pl/view/b093ddb8

[eternal oxide]

Yep you tried to cast to a Map when you can;t do that

[humble heath]

so how do i get the map to load back in

[eternal oxide]

you use .getValues(true) on the returned MemorySection

[humble heath]

where that

[eternal oxide]

thats the result of yoru get method call

[humble heath]

where would i put that

[woven coral]

how do I add an entity to a scoreboards team?

since I want to change their glow color

[sour sand]

is there a way to add data like from a datapack. i am tring to make an advancement and to do that i need to be able to use a datapack is there a way to have one inbuilt into my plugin

[outer crane]

you need to use NameSpacedKeys

[sour sand]

ok but how do i use those

[drowsy crest]

Hey how would I go about modifying existing variables in a entity from a Bukkit entity?

I'm trying to modify the protected MerchantRecipeList trades; variable in EntityVillagerAbstract with NMS and Reflection. New to the whole reflections API and using Spigot NMS but for reference, something like this is what I'm trying to do if that helps clarify

    @EventHandler()
    public void CreatureSpawnListener(CreatureSpawnEvent event) {
        if (event.getEntity() instanceof WanderingTrader) {
            WanderingTrader trader = (WanderingTrader) event.getEntity();
            VillagerUtils.clearVillagerTrades(trader); // cast error
            

        }
    }```

```java
public class VillagerUtils {


    public static void clearVillagerTrades(EntityVillagerAbstract trader) {
        try {

            Field field = trader.getClass().getDeclaredField("trades");
            field.setAccessible(true);
            field.set(trader, null);
            field.setAccessible(false);

        } catch (NoSuchFieldException | IllegalAccessException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

}```

think I'm on the verge of something actually

            WanderingTrader trader = (WanderingTrader) event.getEntity();
            EntityVillagerAbstract nmsVillager = ((CraftWanderingTrader) trader).getHandle();

[sullen marlin]

why do you need NMS for this

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/inventory/Merchant.html#setRecipes(java.util.List)

[drowsy crest]

I'm trying to clear trades to replace with something else. Thank you I'll check this out 🙂

[sullen marlin]

which you dont need NMS for, see API above

[grand cove]

Is it possible to create a custom event for a player server action which is not currently supported by spigot? (like smithing)

[eternal oxide]

You can create any events you want. But plugins need to specifically listen for them

[grand cove]

Yea understandable, but where can I get the server "actions"

[eternal oxide]

If you mean you want to inject your event actions into the Bukkit enums, you can't

[grand cove]

I don't really know, I just want to add an event for smith crafting

[outer crane]

fork spigot?

[eternal oxide]

smith crafting?

[outer crane]

also that ^

[grand cove]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/inventory/PrepareSmithingEvent.html there is the prepare

but not the crafting event

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/inventory/CraftItemEvent.html

like this one

I would need a SmithItemEvent

[outer crane]

what are you trying to do with that event

[grand cove]

Adding an upgrade % chance of failure :)

[eternal oxide]

use the prepare event to add teh percentage as Lore, then detect on inventory click event when the item is removed to create the finished item

[grand cove]

interesting

I'll go for that, thanks !

[novel lodge]

In the same fashion as Hypixel Skyblock how could I make items different on the server side but not on the client side?

E.g. having two different weapons with 2 different IDs show as the same item on the client side

Is this only obtainable via mods?

[eternal night]

Is that item supposed to stack onto the other same looking item o.O

Because that would kinda ruin you

At least from a plugin perspective

[eternal oxide]

You store their datas in their PDC/meta

[eternal night]

^ which makes them unstackeable

[eternal oxide]

Then you apply their effects when they are used

[eternal night]

Well,if they have different PDC values

[sullen marlin]

There is one now https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/inventory/SmithItemEvent.html

[grand cove]

LOL

whaat

niiice

thanks ❤️

[novel lodge]

no

[eternal night]

Yeah then stick to PDC and you should be good

[novel lodge]

ok

[vapid oyster]

I'm trying to work with MySQL and I use this method to check if a player exists. JAVA public boolean exists(UUID uuid, String pointType) { try { PreparedStatement ps = plugin.SQL.getConnection().prepareStatement("SELECT pointType FROM ac_daily_login WHERE uuid=? AND pointType=?"); ps.setString(1, pointType); ps.setString(2, uuid.toString()); ps.setString(3, pointType); ResultSet results = ps.executeQuery(); if (results.next()) { return true; } else { return false; } } catch (SQLException e) { plugin.getLogger().log(Level.SEVERE, ChatColor.RED + "Failed to check if Exists!", e); return false; } }What I want to do though, is check if the UUID and pointType exists in the same column, because I want to create a column for every pointType for each player.
This is an example of my table, I'm wanting to store each Material and Amount a player mines for every Material

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/572831985433575470/833272371699384350/kPFTvlS.png

[eternal oxide]

That code is blocking and will lag your server

[vapid oyster]

What do you mean?

[eternal oxide]

you are running single threaded

teh server is going to freeze untill your database responds

in your SCHEMA the players UUID shoudl be the unique key

names can change

[vapid oyster]

Ah, i understand that now. I haven't looked past single-thread yet, but will once I get further into it, just started learning how to use this an hour ago

[eternal oxide]

k

[vapid oyster]

I'll look into this, thanks!

[eternal oxide]

I'd probably do a table per player

it would hold the pointType and amount

use the player uuid as the table name

[vapid oyster]

Huh, ya I guess I could, thanks for the idea!

[eternal night]

Table per player what

No please do not do that

[eternal oxide]

he's wanting to store a total for each type of block broken by each player

[eternal night]

What prevents a simple uuid + material primary key ?

Variable table names in SQL defeat the entire purpose

[eternal oxide]

I guess you could use column name for teh block type

[earnest junco]

^ agreed, constraints exist for a reason

[eternal oxide]

true

however that would be a pain to clean up

you'd have to check every block type

[eternal night]

What ? XD

delete from table where uuid = ?

Would still work just as fine

[eternal oxide]

If you are creating a key based on the players uuid and the block type

[eternal night]

Compound keys aren't a single collum o.O

[eternal oxide]

ah, sorry you didnt; say a compound key, I thought you meant a single key composed of teh two objects.

[eternal night]

Oh sorry, yeah my bad

Ye just compound primary key of uuid and material

Should deliver just what is needed here

[vapid oyster]

Is this the correct way to set a UNIQUE constraint? prepareStatement("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ac_daily_login " + "(name VARCHAR(100),uuid VARCHAR(100) UNIQUE,pointType VARCHAR(100),pointAmount BIGINT(100),PRIMARY KEY (name));")

[eternal oxide]

no

FIrst, your primary key shoudl not be name

[vapid oyster]

Should it be UUID?

[eternal oxide]

yes

well it was agreed it shoudl be a key pair

https://database.guide/how-to-create-a-composite-primary-key-in-sql-server-t-sql-example/

[vapid oyster]

Ok, so after reading that I've come up with JAVA ps = plugin.SQL.getConnection().prepareStatement("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ac_daily_login " + "(name VARCHAR(100),uuid VARCHAR(100) UNIQUE,pointType VARCHAR(100),pointAmount BIGINT(100), CONSTRAINT ac_daily_login PRIMARY KEY (uuid, pointType));");

[eternal oxide]

take unique off the uuid column

as you are using a key pair you will have duplicate uuids

[eternal night]

Also your constraint name should probably not be the same as the table XD

Just add a _pk at the end

Or Smth like that

[vapid oyster]

Thank you very much, finally got it working!

[vapid oyster]

I'll do that too, thanks

Also could you guys let me know if this method seems correct? JAVA public void createPlayer(Player player, String pointType, long pointAmount) { try { // if (!exists(player.getUniqueId(), pointType)) { PreparedStatement ps2 = plugin.SQL.getConnection().prepareStatement("INSERT INTO ac_daily_login (name,uuid,pointType,pointAmount) VALUES (?,?,?,?) " + "ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE pointAmount=pointAmount+?;"); ps2.setString(1, player.getName()); ps2.setString(2, player.getUniqueId().toString()); ps2.setString(3, pointType); ps2.setLong(4, pointAmount); ps2.setLong(5, pointAmount); ps2.executeUpdate(); return; // } } catch (SQLException e) { plugin.getLogger().log(Level.SEVERE, ChatColor.RED + "Failed to create Player!", e); } }

It seems to be working fine, but just want to make sure that looks good. I run that each time a Player Breaks a block

[young knoll]

Hopefully async

[eternal oxide]

Not yet

this is his first attempt so no threading

[vapid oyster]

Ya not async yet, but just wanted to make sure I had the basics down before jumping ahead

[young knoll]

It’s annoying that on duplicate key update still increments auto increment columns

[vapid oyster]

I totally agree!

[eternal oxide]

I'm going to guess you havn't included a repository that has that dependency

[crude charm]

https://github.com/missionarydev/board

I also tried this

https://github.com/ThatKawaiiSam/Assemble

but it didnt work

did the same thing

[eternal oxide]

what repo are you adding to yoru pom to access those dependencies?

[crude charm]

the ones provided on the github page

<dependency>
<groupId>me.missionary</groupId>
<artifactId>board</artifactId>
<version>1.1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>

and

https://github.com/ThatKawaiiSam/Assemble/packages/405008

[eternal oxide]

thats only appropriate IF you followed all their instructions on installing it locally

[crude charm]

for what one?

the former?

[eternal oxide]

the first one

[crude charm]

lms

[full sand]

Do you guys know how to ?

[eternal oxide]

or, as it says to use jitpack

[crude charm]

how?

can I use maven and jitpck

[eternal oxide]

yes

[crude charm]

oh I see

[eternal oxide]

        <repository>
            <id>jitpack.io</id>
            <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
        </repository>```

[crude charm]

yeah

ik

whats the version?

[eternal oxide]

whatever the release build is I guess

[crude charm]

why

tf

does

it

not

say

the

version

on the github page

[full sand]

Maybe try to find an other place to see its version

[eternal oxide]

1.1.0-SNAPSHOT it says in its pom

[crude charm]

ik

but it didnt work

Itried that

[eternal oxide]

have you just tried the code it says in jitpack?

[crude charm]

it has a placeholder for version

[glass sparrow]

pretty sure it's 1.0-SNAPSHOT if not use 0873308 as it's pulling from github

[crude charm]

ok

[eternal oxide]

thats looking on spigot. You have added jitpack I hope

[glass sparrow]

no

[crude charm]

[glass sparrow]

remove <repositories>

[crude charm]

sdfgdsg

yeah ik

[glass sparrow]

cool

[crude charm]

but still

[eternal oxide]

still only spigot

[glass sparrow]

try 1.0-SNAPSHOT or the github short hash

[crude charm]

ok

I tried it before

and it didnt work

[eternal oxide]

else change the order of your repos. They are searched in order after local

[crude charm]

ok

[eternal oxide]

that should be 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT

[crude charm]

moved jitpack first

[eternal oxide]

then try the hash

[crude charm]

wdym

[glass sparrow]

wheres the jitpack link?

[eternal oxide]

055208be5d

[crude charm]

working

uts working

the hash is working

[glass sparrow]

hashes always work

[crude charm]

time for MAYBE more issues :/

1 sec

yup

issues

huh

[eternal oxide]

Did you try to clone its repo even though you are now using jitpack?

[crude charm]

ye I tried to cloneit

[eternal oxide]

you don;t need to

[crude charm]

why

I want a jar

to depend

[eternal oxide]

you are now getting it from jitpack

[crude charm]

no

for the server

[eternal oxide]

look in your .m2 folder

[crude charm]

I read about this folder

[eternal oxide]

actually, you have no scope on it, its proably been shaded into yoru jar

[crude charm]

so I dont need it?

it will run

without the depend jar?

running

[eternal oxide]

if its been shaded it will

[crude charm]

ok

[rigid hazel]

Because a console cant click. xD

[fading lake]

because youre only invoking it on the player that clicks it

[rain flint]

Hey, I have created a class CustomBlock, which contains the block itself + custom methods. I have a list containing all those customBlocks, and when one is created, it's added to the list (which is correctly done I checked). But then, from the CustomBlock class, I check if it's still "valid" (= if it's in the list), using customBlockList.contains(this) But it's always returning false, what am I doing wrong ?

(so my final code looks like this)

myClass:

customBlockList.add(new CustomBlock(data));


CustomBlock:

public boolean isValid() {
  return cusotmBlockList.contains(this);
}

[rigid hazel]

@rain flint Show more code please

https://pastebin.com

[fading lake]

what class are you extending

[rigid hazel]

This is what I try to find out with more code

[rain flint]

I do not extend any class

[fading lake]

theres your issue

[fading lake]

yeah

[rain flint]

Why is it an issue ?

[rigid hazel]

                                AbstractArrow bulletArrow = player.launchProjectile(Arrow.class);
                                ItemMeta bulletArrwoMeta = bulletArrow.getItemStack().getItemMeta();
                                bulletArrwoMeta.setCustomModelData(this.plugin.getRocket().id);
                                bulletArrow.getItemStack().setItemMeta(bulletArrwoMeta);
                                final int[] i = {0};
                                Bukkit.getScheduler().scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(this.plugin, new BukkitRunnable() {

                                    public void run() {
                                        bulletArrow.setVelocity(target.getLocation().getDirection().multiply(5));
                                        i[0] += 1;
                                        if(i[0] >= 4)
                                        {
                                            bulletArrow.getWorld().createExplosion(bulletArrow.getLocation(), 6);
                                            cancel();
                                        }
                                    }
                                }, 0, 20);```

[fading lake]

is it an actual block or a reference to a block

[rigid hazel]

I got this error:

[rain flint]

A reference, my constructor is CustomBlock(Block block) { this.block = block; }

[fading lake]

you probably need to create your own .equals then

put this in your class

@Override
public boolean equals(Object obj) {
  if (!(obj instanceof CustomBlock)) return false;
  return ((CustomBlock) obj).block.equals(block);
}

[chrome beacon]

Read what it tells you

[rain flint]

Shouldn't them always be equals ? Like new CustomBlock() == (inside CustomBlock) this

[fading lake]

i havent seen a schedule task made like that in ages

[fading lake]

no

[rigid hazel]

This class cant run an operation like that?

[rain flint]

Ok so that's where my mistake is, thanks 😉

[rigid hazel]

I'm not sure, because of that i ask here

[chrome beacon]

No. Use BukkitRunnable#runTaskTimer(Plugin, long, long)

[rigid hazel]

Ah. I will try

[fading lake]

use something like

new BukkitRunnable() {
  @Override
  public void run() {
    
  }
}.runTaskTimer(plugin, 0, 20);

instead of that old bs method

[chrome beacon]

^^

[ivory sleet]

Isn’t scheduleSyncRepeatingTask just calling runTaskTimer or smtng internally

[earnest junco]

"that old bs method" calls exactly the method you just posted kek

[earnest junco]

yes

[fading lake]

im js that so he doesnt use it lol

[crude charm]

its not working :/

[rigid hazel]

@chrome beacon But .runTaskTimer() return BukkitTask not BukkitRunnable

What should I do?

[crude charm]

@eternal oxide

[rigid hazel]

                                Bukkit.getScheduler().scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(this.plugin, new BukkitRunnable() {
                                    @Override
                                    public void run() {
                                        bulletArrow.setVelocity(target.getLocation().getDirection().multiply(5));
                                        i[0] += 1;
                                        if(i[0] >= 4)
                                        {
                                            bulletArrow.getWorld().createExplosion(bulletArrow.getLocation(), 6);
                                            cancel();
                                        }
                                    }
                                }.runTaskTimer(this.plugin, 0L, 20L));```

What is my mistake?

[fading lake]

BukkitRunnable task = new BukkitRunnable() {
  @Override
  public void run() {
    
  }
};

task.runTaskTimer(plugin, 0, 20);
``` 🤔

[rigid hazel]

Oh.

[fading lake]

wait#

hold up

[rigid hazel]

I dont need thi stuff before

[fading lake]

wait

[rigid hazel]

Okay

[fading lake]

replace the entire thing with this

BukkitRunnable task = new BukkitRunnable() {
  @Override
  public void run() {
    bulletArrow.setVelocity(target.getLocation().getDirection().multiply(5));
                                        i[0] += 1;
                                        if(i[0] >= 4)
                                        {
                                            bulletArrow.getWorld().createExplosion(bulletArrow.getLocation(), 6);
                                            cancel();
                                        }
  }
};

task.runTaskTimer(plugin, 0, 20);
``` get rid of the schedulesyncrepeatingtask thing

[rigid hazel]

Okay. I will try

[earnest junco]

i[0] += 1;
if(i[0] >= 4)
Looks like auto-generated code because you tried to change an outside variable inside your Runnable.
What are you attempting to do?

[rigid hazel]

Yes. I wanted to set i +=1 every second

"Looks like auto-generated code" 10/10

[crude charm]

[fading lake]

and how exactly have you broken maven

[lost depot]

how can i make an event handler for all player events? I tried to listen to PlayerEvent cause thats the super for all of them, but that ends up giving me an "Unable to find handler list" error on startup, so i guess that's not allowed?

[crude charm]

git clone

cd

mvn package

[fading lake]

PlayerEvent is a superclass for all of the player events, its not an event itself

afaik you can't youd have to listen to them all yourself

[earnest junco]

Because it is.
You can declare variables inside the Runnable object.

BukkitRunnable task = new BukkitRunnable() {
    int counter = 0;

    @Override
    public void run() {
        counter++;
        // ...
    }
}

[fading lake]

run mvn package -e

[lost depot]

aw man...

[fading lake]

ikr

[lost depot]

thats dumb

[crude charm]

ok let me trty

[fading lake]

interesting error

uhh

is there any errors in your pom.xml?

[crude charm]

idk

lms

[full sand]

[fading lake]

lol why are you importing the bukkit dependency

[crude charm]

its not mine :/

[fading lake]

oh

[crude charm]

so...

[fading lake]

it could be an issue with the maven compiler

select all the maven compiler plugin stuff between the <plugin></plugin> and paste

<version>3.8.1</version>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>

                </configuration>

in

[crude charm]

ok

there is no maven compiler stuff :/

ill just add it

[fading lake]

is there not https://gyazo.com/67acb3bbddb65edc9b92e674dbc86539

🤔

[crude charm]

nothing in between plugin

[fading lake]

what

[fading lake]

o________________o

[crude charm]

im blind

lmfao

[fading lake]

mmmmmmm

should've gone to specsavers

yeah replace whats in that with what I pasted

[fading lake]

try executing the mvn package now

[crude charm]

oh no

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.8.1:compile (default-compile) on project board: Fatal error compiling: java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError: com.sun.tools.javac.code.TypeTags -> [Help 1]

[fading lake]

try removing the default goal line weird its working for me

[crude charm]

like compiling the same thing?

1 sec

https://github.com/missionarydev/board

try compile that

[fading lake]

aight

are you using the intellij buttons or the mvn command?

[crude charm]

mvn

u do u tho

I literally did

git clone
cd board
mvn package

[fading lake]

wait are you using intellij? how are you executing the maven commands

oh here we go I see

[main dew]

how I can check loaded chunk for player?

[fading lake]

@main dew you cant since thats clientside

[crude charm]

ye im using intelliJ

I did it in mac terminal before

but it also works in intelliJ

[main dew]

moment I check this

[quaint mantle]

Hi ! I need help with my plugin, it make some Post Request, all fine when I declared the url String inside the HTTPSPostRequest class, but now I'm trying to get that from the config.yml file and I get "Could not pass event PlayerAdvancementDoneEvent to TestPlugin2 v1.0"

Can someone help me? Thanks! I can share my code if needed...

[main dew]

NO NO server side

[fading lake]

?

[crude charm]

did it work for u

im guessing not

whats wrong

[fading lake]

no im looking at it now

[crude charm]

ok

[main dew]

Server must know what chunk should send to player

[crude charm]

why would it

waste of memory

[fading lake]

you can check if its loaded entirely with Chunk#isLoaded

[main dew]

I don't want this

[crude charm]

but thats not what one its about to send

u cant find that

[main dew]

no no

[crude charm]

as I said

[eternal night]

Pretty certain there is a PlayerChunkMap

[crude charm]

the server doesent store it

[main dew]

server must know this

[eternal night]

Yeah server definitely knows this

Else it would have to broadcast every single packet

To every single player

[crude charm]

im saying the server wouldn't store it

it would get it

not store it

[eternal oxide]

The server knows where every player is and it knows what chunks it has loaded

[crude charm]

thats not what he wants tho

ik that

but say what chunk the player will next load

or will load in 500 blocks

[eternal oxide]

impossible until the player moves and the server decides

[crude charm]

yea

thats what im saying

[main dew]

yea you know how get this chunk?

[quaint mantle]

[crude charm]

@fading lake any update fixing that annoying pom

[fading lake]

not yet itskindathrowing me

[eternal oxide]

You can check teh view distance setting on teh server then calculate what chunks are loaded around the player using that value

if you need to do somethign with chunks you can monitor the chunk load event

[main dew]

I would like to use contains

[crude charm]

@eternal oxide remember that pom issue before

well, im still getting it

:/

[main dew]

maybe possible get list loaded chunk with Player or CraftPlayer?

[eternal oxide]

Why do you need a scoreboard api plugin?

[crude charm]

easier

[fading lake]

^

[crude charm]

cleaner

[fading lake]

cant you just steal one off spigotmc or github

like a normal pers

[crude charm]

I did

[eternal oxide]

not really, theres very little to creating and managing scoreboards

[crude charm]

depends

using an api for what im doing is just easier for me

[fading lake]

what does an api give you that something you create doesnt

[crude charm]

actually

I could just make my own util

[fading lake]

nO wAY

[crude charm]

ikr

ground breaking

[fading lake]

public class ScoreboardUtil {
    private final Scoreboard scoreboard;
    private final Objective objective;

    public ScoreboardUtil() {
        scoreboard = Bukkit.getScoreboardManager().getNewScoreboard();
        objective = scoreboard.registerNewObjective("Board", "dummy");

        objective.setDisplaySlot(DisplaySlot.SIDEBAR);
    }

    public ScoreboardUtil(Player player) {
        scoreboard = player.getScoreboard();
        objective = scoreboard.getObjective(DisplaySlot.SIDEBAR);
    }

    public Scoreboard getScoreboard() {
        return scoreboard;
    }

    public String getTitle() {
        return objective.getDisplayName();
    }

    public void setTitle(String name) {
        objective.setDisplayName(name);
    }

    public void set(int row, String text) {
        if (16 > row) {
            if(text.length() > 32) { text = text.substring(0, 32); }

            remove(row);

            objective.getScore(text).setScore(row);
        } else {
            throw new IndexOutOfBoundsException("row cannot be higher than 16");
        }
    }

    public void remove(int row) {
        for(String entry : scoreboard.getEntries()) {
            if(objective.getScore(entry).getScore() == row) {
                scoreboard.resetScores(entry);
                break;
            }
        }
    }
}

ezpz

[eternal oxide]

well, have you looked in yoru .m2 folder? as you have built your plugin you shoudl now have that api in yrou local

[crude charm]

thanks, saved me an hour 🙂

and we all know

time equals

bruh

@fading lake I need to know something

something very important

this will change space and time as we know it

[cedar meadow]

whats this error

[crude charm]

does it update automatically?

[fading lake]

wdym

[cedar meadow]

its essentialsx

[crude charm]

does it update

[fading lake]

if youre using maven, try shading essentialsx into your repo

[crude charm]

is it static or dynamic

[cedar meadow]

i am not

its a error in the server

console

[fading lake]

which is coming from your plugin, what version is the server?

[fading lake]

dynamic

[cedar meadow]

1.8.9

[fading lake]

[cedar meadow]

idk not my server

[fading lake]

no

wait

[cedar meadow]

im just developing it for them -_-

but i cant find out what this error is

[fading lake]

nono, what api are you using

whats the version of it

[sleek pond]

What mc server version

[fading lake]

the api that allows you to use spigot stuff in your plugin

[cedar meadow]

1.8

[fading lake]

the MC version is 1.8, PotionData doesnt exist until 1.13 afaik

[sleek pond]

Oh

Yeah

[fading lake]

so your API version is higher than your mc version @cedar meadow

[cedar meadow]

not really

im using 1.8 aswell

[sleek pond]

Factions

[fading lake]

1.8 doesnt have PotionData

[sleek pond]

Somewhere random in the plugin

[cedar meadow]

its either 1.8.9 or 1.8

[cedar meadow]

yeh?

[fading lake]

what ide are you using?

[sleek pond]

If you type BlockType.BLACKSTONE does it give and error?

Hi ! I need help with my plugin, it make some Post Request, all fine when I declared the url String inside the HTTPSPostRequest class, but now I'm trying to get that from the config.yml file and I get "Could not pass event PlayerAdvancementDoneEvent to TestPlugin2 v1.0"

Can someone help me? Thanks! Here my code: https://github.com/kaonashi696/PleromaMC/tree/master/src/com/kaonashi696/pleromamc

#help-server and i think its BlockType: BLACKSTONE

[crude charm]

ok

[fading lake]

yeah I just realised hes trying to do stuff with essentials

[fading lake]

OH

wait

sorry

[cedar meadow]

ik that

some1 told me to put that in

then send the error

[fading lake]

so are you trying to make essentials work

if so, you've got the wrong version

[cedar meadow]

yeh.

kits need work

[lost matrix]

1. 1.8 is unsupported
2. Ask in #help-server

Hi ! My events listeners are not working... Can someone help me?
https://github.com/kaonashi696/PleromaMC/tree/master/src/com/kaonashi696/pleromamc

[fading lake]

who uses 1.8

[olive jungle]

I have a really quick question with BlockPopulators and the vanilla ones. If I wanted to replace JUST the vanilla tree populator, would it be possible to do so without the need to rewrite the entire Chunk Generator. Because to my knowledge, world.getpopulators only returns the populators without telling me which one of them is the tree populator that I want to replace.

[fading lake]

bukkit events don't throw exceptions, try using a try/catch instead

[quaint mantle]

Well, as I explained before thats not the problem... (but I'll change it) --> "it make some Post Request, all fine when I declared the url String inside the HTTPSPostRequest class, but now I'm trying to get that from the config.yml file and I get "Could not pass event PlayerAdvancementDoneEvent"

[chrome beacon]

Also don't send web requests on the main thread

[quaint mantle]

Is not on the main, it is? It is in the HTTPSPostRequest class

[lost matrix]

1. your HTTPSPostRequest.class extends JavaPlugin -> Bad
2. HTTPSPostRequest get=new HTTPSPostRequest(); <- You can not instanciate a class that extends JavaPlugin
3. You need to really enforce the Java code style conventions or people who are trying to help you will get confused.

[fading lake]

you have multiple classes extending JavaPlugin?

[quaint mantle]

sorry for java code style, I'm a python developer

[full sand]

Hey I got a problem I have an even to format chat but when I have luckperms and have there prefix, the prefix won't show up in chat. how do I fix that?

@EventHandler
public void rgbMessage(AsyncPlayerChatEvent e){
String message = translateHexColorCodes("&#", "", e.getMessage());
Player p = e.getPlayer();
e.setMessage(message);
e.setFormat(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', config.getString("ChatFormat.Format").replace("%displayname%",p.getDisplayName()).replace("%name%", p.getName()).replace("%message%",
e.getMessage())));
}

[quaint mantle]

If I remove extending JavaPlugin from HTTPSPostRequest I get "The method getConfig() is undefined for the type HTTPSPostRequest"

That's why I extended it

[chrome beacon]

Yeah that won't work

[fading lake]

use dependency injection to send an instance of your main class to the event class, with that you can get the config

[lost matrix]

Hm. Try to call your handler method with a lower priority and make it LoadBefore: [LuckPerms] in your plugin.yml

[full sand]

but what about other plugins that change the chat?

[lost matrix]

You need an instance of your JavaPlugin class in your HTTPSPostRequest instance. The constructor would a simple entry point. A singleton would also do the trick.

[sleek pond]

Go talk to imaginedev then lmao

[opal juniper]

lmao

python is pretty fun tho

[chrome beacon]

Java > Python

[sleek pond]

C# > Java

[opal juniper]

I mean, it depends. I am all for java & Python

It depends on what you are doing

[sleek pond]

Hey

[quaint mantle]

Well, thanks for your help

[sleek pond]

Let's not spoil the fun jeff

[opal juniper]

😄

[sleek pond]

Some language competition is nice for the consumer

[chrome beacon]

True Python has less boilerplate

[sleek pond]

By less u mean none

[chrome beacon]

Yea

[opal juniper]

well, depends on how good you are

[fading lake]

in your dreams

[opal juniper]

i have seen some pretty garbage code from my friends in python

like once, there was 2 functions that they made, cause one had one line that was diffrerent. Each was 100 lines

[crude charm]

c# for game dev java for api stuff

[opal juniper]

Why do people use c# for game dev? what about it is so good ?

[chrome beacon]

Unity uses C#

[opal juniper]

Yeah, is that why?

[chrome beacon]

Unreal uses C++

[quaint mantle]

How can I do that exactly?

[crude charm]

@fading lake HELP!!!!!!!!

[eternal oxide]

I like Java as its platform agnostic

[opal juniper]

like, just in general why is C good for games

[fading lake]

?

[crude charm]

now

its going to be something dumb

because I havent read the error

[chrome beacon]

C++ is fast. C# I have no idea why they chose that

[fading lake]

wait what

[opal juniper]

Right, i think i heard something about C being closer to the hardware iirc, makes sense then i guess

can you send the method it is part of?

oh util

😠

[fading lake]

the line is objective = scoreboard.registerNewObjective("Board", "dummy"); @eternal oxide

[crude charm]

yea

[opal juniper]

huhhhhh, thats weird

[crude charm]

no its not

its this

scoreboard = Bukkit.getScoreboardManager().getNewScoreboard();

[opal juniper]

funny man

[crude charm]

what

it is

[eternal oxide]

is this error when using that scoreboard API?

[crude charm]

no

@fading lake made this one 🙂

[fading lake]

it was built for 1.8.9 so if they changed the way you make scoreboards, then welp

[crude charm]

im on 1.8.9

:/

[opal juniper]

idk why it would be null tho

[eternal oxide]

ok, You are attempting to initialize your Scoreboard before the server is started. Probably a Field in your main class so its being instanced as soon as your class is accessed

[opal juniper]

ooohhh, true

[fading lake]

oh yeah, you're supposed to create them per player, not at the start and send the same one to every player (I think? I havent used this util in a while)

wait

let me check

[crude charm]

ok

[fading lake]

yes, you make it and send it onto the player as they join

[quaint mantle]

Is this legal?

public class HTTPSPostRequest{
    
    PleromaMC thefile = new PleromaMC();
    FileConfiguration config = thefile.thefile();

[fading lake]

no

[opal juniper]

extremely illegal

life sentence kinda stuff

[quaint mantle]

and in PleromaMC.java:

FileConfiguration config = getConfig();
    
    public FileConfiguration thefile() {
        return config;
    }  

[crude charm]

I do that

[fading lake]

where is HTTPSPostRequest instantiated

[fading lake]

no you create it on startup and then send it to the user when they join

[crude charm]

show

[crude charm]

how tf do I get an instance of player\

[fading lake]

inside PlayerDeathListener put this so it'd become PlayerDeathListener(this)

[fading lake]

join event

[crude charm]

I use an api

[quaint mantle]

okay, and that's all?

[fading lake]

then you're fucked

no

it should be throwing an error at you

is it?

[quaint mantle]

yes

nvm im just

really

reallu

really

dumb

how do you feel

put in

``` above the event listener

@quaint mantle

[crude charm]

uh oh

[quaint mantle]

done, still having the error

[fading lake]

which one

[quaint mantle]

Oh no, sorry my mistake

okay last thing

post the listeners source again

the listener

not the entire clas

you're still trying to create a scoreboard at runtime

[crude charm]

[crude charm]

what about it

[quaint mantle]

done

[fading lake]

move it to the thing thats executed when the player joins

[fading lake]

is it erroring?

[crude charm]

ok

[quaint mantle]

yes

[fading lake]

okay good

go to HTTPSPostRequest

[quaint mantle]

"The method sendPOST(String) in the type HTTPSPostRequest is not applicable for the arguments (PleromaMC, String)""

[quaint mantle]

yup, thanks again

[fading lake]

replace public static void sendPOST(String POST_PARAMS) throws IOException { with public static void sendPOST(PleromaMC core, String POST_PARAMS) throws IOException {

then instead of instantiating a PleromaMC instance, use core so core.getConfigorwhateverthemethodis

[quaint mantle]

no errors

[fading lake]

so send the sendpost method in chat

[quaint mantle]

so core.getString() for example

[fading lake]

no

core isnt a configurationsection

you need to use core.getConfig()

then .getString after that

i think

I cant remember the method to get the config from a plugin instance because im half asleep

[quaint mantle]

"getConfig cannot be resolved or is not a field"

[fading lake]

o_o

it should be https://gyazo.com/ca47854ef93bdd85c46c271285853bd2

are you remembering the ()

and before anyone yells at me about static abuse, thats for debugging

[crude charm]

And this?

FileConfiguration config = core.getConfig();
        String oauth = config.getString("oauth");

[fading lake]

that should be fine yeah

[crude charm]

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

no error

but doesent set one

[fading lake]

why are you loading the player listener weird

[fading lake]

wdym

[crude charm]

wdym

[fading lake]

no what do you mean

[crude charm]

no sb

[quaint mantle]

So sendPOST method:

public static void sendPOST(PleromaMC core, String POST_PARAMS) throws IOException {
        
        FileConfiguration config = core.getConfig();
        String oauth = config.getString("oauth");
        String post_url = config.getString("post_url");

[quaint mantle]

I saw the message, thanks @fading lake

So gonna test that and make the same for other listeners

[quaint mantle]

And what about this? I don't understand...

[fading lake]

OH

yeah

basically

java has multithreading, so you know how you execute a method and it goes through it, it executes methods, waits for them to finish and then carries on

basically multithreading allows java to do multiple things at the same time

the problem with anything involving IO is that the server halts (waits) for it to finish which can cause insane lag spikes or crashes

so basically you're best running it asynchronously

[crude charm]

I do set it

[fading lake]

that should work 🤔

[crude charm]

but it dont

[fading lake]

[fading lake]

yes you should

if you're not thinking of returning anything you should be fine

[quaint mantle]

Oke 😋 thanks a lot again

[crude charm]

ok now time to clean it up and hopefully not break it

[fading lake]

basically just do

new BukkitRunnable() {

I think you need to reinstall your brain today

[crude charm]

its midnight

[fading lake]

ah

[rigid hazel]

I try to set the velocity of an arrow to a player target

[crude charm]

ive been up till 5 the last 3 weeks

[rigid hazel]

But the arrow is always floating next to the target and dont it it

[fading lake]

wdym "floating next to the target"

[rigid hazel]

The arrow direction != the direction between the shooter and the target is

[fading lake]

that includes math, my brain has stopped

performs magical hand movements to summon 7smile7, elgarl, conclure or frostalf

[eternal oxide]

Explain what you are trying to do

[rigid hazel]

I tried to shoot an arrow which is following a target

[eternal oxide]

so a tracking arrow

[rigid hazel]

But the arrow always have the wrong vector as velocity

[rigid hazel]

Yes

[eternal oxide]

Are you trying to adjust it in flight?

[novel lodge]

How can I create a player entity?

[rigid hazel]

Yes.

Is this wrong?

[fading lake]

pain, suffering, and a lot of giving up

use the citizens api

thats what everywhere like hypixel, cubecraft, mineplex etc does

[eternal oxide]

    public static Location getLocationWithTarget(final Location sourceLoc, final Location targetLoc) {
        
        Location delta = sourceLoc.clone().subtract(targetLoc);
        float distance =  (float) Math.sqrt(delta.getZ() * delta.getZ() + delta.getX() * delta.getX());
        float pitch = (float) Math.toDegrees(Math.atan2(delta.getY(), distance));
        float yaw = (float) Math.toDegrees(Math.atan2(delta.getZ(), delta.getX())+Math.PI/2);

        Location resultLoc = sourceLoc.clone();
        resultLoc.setPitch(pitch);
        resultLoc.setYaw(yaw);
        
        return resultLoc;
    }```This method returns a location with pitch and yaw to the target. From that you can get teh velocity

[novel lodge]

Understandable

[lost matrix]

I mean citizens is (was) utter trash. There was a time where it occupied 20% of a tick just for running. Without any online user and one NPC standing at spawn.

[rigid hazel]

What is resultLoc?

[eternal oxide]

thats the location with adjusted pitch and yaw to teh destination

[novel lodge]

I've tried to add Citizens with AutoImport but apparently it doesn't exist

[fading lake]

I think they've optimized it a little bit now so it's actually possible to use it without killing your server, since hypixel have loads of them running about trying to kill players and it suits them perfectly (until they start getting players to hit hundreds of them at once)

the whole skyblock event thing a few days ago was an utter joke

tps dropped to like 9

[rigid hazel]

So just transform this into a vector?

Or what?

[eternal oxide]

yes

[rigid hazel]

Okay

I will try

[lost matrix]

  public void setTarget(final Projectile projectile, final Location targetLoc, final double velocity) {
    final Vector velocityVector = targetLoc.toVector().subtract(projectile.getLocation().toVector());
    velocityVector.normalize().multiply(velocity);
    projectile.setVelocity(velocityVector);
  }

Also make sure the projectile is not affected to gravity. But if you do this every tick then its not a concern.

[rigid hazel]

Oh. The is a method for that. Right?

[lost matrix]

This sets the velocity of a projectile to point at the target location with the given velocity.

[sand vector]

is there any difference between if and case statements other than case being easier? Like speeds?

[novel lodge]

What is the most recent version of the citizens API

[rigid hazel]

Thanks. Thats working

[eternal oxide]

@lost matrix why not use the vector length to set teh velocity?

that way you maintain whatever velocity was set before

[lost matrix]

Kind of. But the performance is very similar and the compiler makes a good job at optimizing it anyways.
If you really want to increase the performance then go for something that scales O(1) instead of O(n).
Hash based data structures for example.

[lost matrix]

Good idea. @rigid hazel You can also do what ElgarL just suggested. ^
But depends on how you want to use that method.

[rigid hazel]

I think you gave me a good way

I only testet it on mobs and they arent running a lot but I'm sure this will follow targets too

Hey I'm looking to create an explosion on arrow hit, thing is, I need to keep track of the shooter in case someone dies to the explosion

@EventHandler
    public void onShootHit(ProjectileHitEvent e){

        if(!(e.getEntity() instanceof Arrow)) return;

        Arrow arrow = (Arrow) e.getEntity();

        if(!(arrow.getShooter() instanceof Player)) return;

        Player shooter = (Player) arrow.getShooter();

        Location targetLocation = e.getEntity().getLocation();

        TNTPrimed tnt = (TNTPrimed) targetLocation.getWorld().spawnEntity(targetLocation, EntityType.PRIMED_TNT);
        tnt.setFuseTicks(0);
        
        arrow.remove();
    }

This works well but sometime I can see the tnt before it explodes 😒

[eternal oxide]

set teh shooters uuid on the projectiles meta at launch

[lost matrix]

*using the PersistentDataContainer of the Projectile

And the ProjectileLaunchEvent

[eternal night]

But why, doesn't get shooter work fine ?

[ancient whale]

I'm using 1.8.8 😒

This code works fine, I actually store the tnt entity wih the shooter name in a hashmap

[eternal oxide]

so no pdc 😦

[ancient whale]

But when it explodes, sometimes I can see the tnt

[lost matrix]

Lol.. Then use a Map<UUID, UUID> with projectileID mapped to the shooterID

[eternal oxide]

oh you need the player for the tnt

[eternal night]

There should be a world.createExplosion method

I mean maybe not 1.8 is ancient

[eternal oxide]

primed tnt is an entity so you coudl still use meta

[ancient whale]

Yea, but How do I store the damager with this method

[eternal night]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/World.html#createExplosion(double,double,double,float,boolean,boolean,org.bukkit.entity.Entity)

[quaint mantle]

when you shoot the arrow add the shooter's uuid and the arrow's uuid to a map

[lost matrix]

What do you use the shooter for anyways?

[eternal oxide]

I'd transfer shooter from the arrow to the primed tnt on hit, then in the explosion look for the meta to get the shooter.
