Is it possible to get the player from ItemSpawnEvent?

eternal night May 31, 2021, 11:43 AM

#

as the item spawn event is called for any form of items being spawned I do not think it is very possible

#

but why not use the drop event ?

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:44 AM

#

EntityDropItemEvent you mean this one?

#

I've already tried that one

eternal night May 31, 2021, 11:44 AM

#

Yeah that one

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:44 AM

#

Didn't work

eternal night May 31, 2021, 11:44 AM

#

doubtful

summer scroll May 31, 2021, 11:44 AM

#

what about ItemSpawnEvent#getItem#getThrower

young knoll May 31, 2021, 11:44 AM

#

Assuming there is one

summer scroll May 31, 2021, 11:44 AM

#

EntityDropItemEvent or PlayerDropItemEvent

young knoll May 31, 2021, 11:44 AM

#

But that’s what the other event is for

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:44 AM

#

I'm trying to limit the amount of items that can be spawned/dropped in a radius of getNearbyEntities basically

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:45 AM

#

summer scroll what about ``ItemSpawnEvent#getItem#getThrower``

hm, let me see

eternal night May 31, 2021, 11:45 AM

#

oh I thought player drop item event was deprecated

#

doesn't seem to be the case

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:45 AM

#

summer scroll what about ``ItemSpawnEvent#getItem#getThrower``

there's no getItem

getEntity my bad

#

damn it I just can't get this effect right

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:46 AM

#

summer scroll getEntity my bad

that returns an UUID 🤔

young knoll May 31, 2021, 11:46 AM

#

Correct

summer scroll May 31, 2021, 11:46 AM

#

yup, so just use PlayerDropItemEvent instead.

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:46 AM

#

But that doesn't include if someone breaks a chest with the items inside, right?

young knoll May 31, 2021, 11:47 AM

#

Or just turn the activation range for items way down and then not worry about it

summer scroll May 31, 2021, 11:48 AM

#

Bukkit.getPlayer(ItemSpawnEvent#getEntity#getThrower) maybe

young knoll May 31, 2021, 11:49 AM

#

I don’t think the drops of chests will have a thrower anyway

#

BlockDropItemEvent may work for that, maybe

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:50 AM

#

young knoll I don’t think the drops of chests will have a thrower anyway

Nope. It worked when I threw an item, not if the chest broke

summer scroll May 31, 2021, 11:50 AM

#

null check everything xd

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:50 AM

#

Then I assume I can just message every player near it

#

#

This works fine xd

#

oops, wrong scope, but otherwise works, spamming everytime a player drops something otherwise

summer scroll May 31, 2021, 11:53 AM

#

not that safe but yeah

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:53 AM

#

yea

young knoll May 31, 2021, 11:53 AM

#

Rip any items over 60

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:57 AM

#

Yea 😳

summer scroll May 31, 2021, 11:57 AM

#

will create a Map that saves location and item and have a task to try to respawn the Item work? xd

spark finch May 31, 2021, 11:57 AM

#

A player managed to spawn in more than 2100 item drops. TPS dropped to 8-9

#

They weren't trying to crash the server, just farming their farms, but way too much to have no protection against it at all xd

#

Doubt you can solve that in spigot.yml or paper.yml, if you can please let me know

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 11:59 AM

#

just listen to https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/entity/ItemSpawnEvent.html and check nearby items before allowing it to spawn

young knoll May 31, 2021, 11:59 AM

#

They did

#

But then you lose items

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 12:00 PM

#

tuff?

spark finch May 31, 2021, 12:00 PM

#

young knoll But then you lose items

At least I'm sending them a message xd

young knoll May 31, 2021, 12:00 PM

#

Chests get blown up

#

Items gone

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 12:02 PM

#

perhaps have it check for junk items that automation could produce and only allow x number of those on the floor

#

sand, dirt, cobble, cacti etc

young knoll May 31, 2021, 12:02 PM

#

Combine them into a shulker box

#

Actually that would be pretty cool if it didn’t give people a free shulker box

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 12:03 PM

#

or just remove x number of junk items. Its not like they are valuable

young knoll May 31, 2021, 12:03 PM

#

I guess you could make a plugin that combines items into a shulker box and then removed the box on pickup

#

That could be fun

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 12:04 PM

#

So long as you tag it so you only remove YOUR boxes

spark finch May 31, 2021, 12:04 PM

#

There seems to be a total miscalculation of how many entities there actually are as well... (The numbers are the amount of dropped items nearby)

#

1 stack is essentially one item...

#

When a chest breaks, don't they stack up?

#

Or is it only after a while?

young knoll May 31, 2021, 12:04 PM

#

Not immediately iirc

spark finch May 31, 2021, 12:04 PM

#

Oof

summer scroll May 31, 2021, 12:04 PM

#

if there's 1 stacked items on the ground, does that count as 1 item or?

spark finch May 31, 2021, 12:04 PM

#

summer scroll if there's 1 stacked items on the ground, does that count as 1 item or?

Yea

young knoll May 31, 2021, 12:05 PM

#

They probably stack on the next tick

spark finch May 31, 2021, 12:05 PM

#

Should I delay the checks a few ticks or?

#

Runnable?

frail sluice May 31, 2021, 12:06 PM

#

how can I get the NBT tag of a player? I want to do something like this

((CraftEntity) player).getHandle.getTag()

#

someone?

ivory sleet May 31, 2021, 12:07 PM

#

getHandle is a method

frail sluice May 31, 2021, 12:08 PM

#

yea

ivory sleet May 31, 2021, 12:08 PM

#

so probably
((CraftPlayer)player).getHandle().getTag()

frail sluice May 31, 2021, 12:08 PM

#

fixed that but there is no getTag()

ivory sleet May 31, 2021, 12:08 PM

The File class is designed for paths that are external to the jar file

in hashmap?

#

why

#

what are the hashmap values

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 1:07 PM

#

you certainly aren't making a hashmap with a bunch of song classes

#

you're most likely making a map with a bunch of song objects

#

or are you actually putting Class<Song> objects in it

oak mica May 31, 2021, 1:07 PM

oak mica this should work right?

bruh this still doesnt work

and it doesnt even give error

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 1:07 PM

yeah those are song objects, not song classes

your trying to compare two metas

you should get displaynames from the metas and compare them to each others @oak mica

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 1:09 PM

no, you should not compare the display name

you should use the pdc

yes but what constructors does it have

quaint mantle May 31, 2021, 1:14 PM

#

i and pulsebeat told u need to save the getresource to file

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 1:14 PM

#

for that just use saveResource

#

then yes you need to save it to a file and then pass the file to that method

#

which means you want to use saveresource, which extracts a resource and writes it to a file

minor garnet May 31, 2021, 1:16 PM

#

        new BukkitRunnable() {
            double delay = 2.6;
            @Override
            public void run() {
                delay = (delay - 0.1);```
delay is 2.5555555559 and blabla, how i make only btween two numbers

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 1:16 PM

#

or ig you could getresource and write it down manually but that's unnecessary

#

getresource is a method

#

saveresource is also a method

#

you know how to use a method right

#

then what's the problem

have you considered, i don't know, reading the docs

severe folio May 31, 2021, 2:03 PM

from what I can gather, you're trying to teleport a player 25 blocks straight ahead of where they're looking. Why not just check if the block they're gonna end up on is a solid block, and if so use something (SUCH AS) World#getHighestBlockAt(x,z)

#

(assuming thats the behaviour you want)

#

is NoteblockAPI installed on your server

#

yeah

#

you're importing classes from it, right?

#

do you include it in your plugin then?

Where should I handle the tick logic for each state?

near crypt May 31, 2021, 3:57 PM

#

oh yes sry

#

haha

#

its [0] ik

wet breach May 31, 2021, 3:59 PM

and just fyi you don't need to do toArray() when getOnlinePlayers already returns an array

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 3:59 PM

Collection<? extends Player> players = plugin.getServer().getOnlinePlayers();
Player p = Iterables.getFirst(players, null);

What exactly are you trying to do?

near crypt May 31, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

@eternal oxide and how can i get the location of this first player because its no player? can i convert this?

tardy delta May 31, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

is ?tag something?

late dove May 31, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

eternal oxide What exactly are you trying to do?

I need to synchronize enchantments in a file.

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 4:05 PM

#

late dove I need to synchronize enchantments in a file.

So you are trying to get all Enchantments that are registered on the server?

#

or just their names?

late dove May 31, 2021, 4:07 PM

#

eternal oxide So you are trying to get all Enchantments that are registered on the server?

So that I can restore them to the subject.

#

I need to save them to the database.

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 4:08 PM

like https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/inventory/ItemStack.html#getEnchantments()?

Is there some kind of api or how can i do something like updating config from other versions without having to recreate?

cobalt blaze May 31, 2021, 4:10 PM

#

getConfig().options().copyDefaults(true)

quaint mantle May 31, 2021, 4:10 PM

#

i didnt meant that

#

i have a file config.yml, messages.yml and stuff and i want to when i add some sections to it i want it to update

cobalt blaze May 31, 2021, 4:11 PM

#

Like copy the new sections to your config.yml?

quaint mantle May 31, 2021, 4:11 PM

#

yea smth like that

cobalt blaze May 31, 2021, 4:11 PM

#

Without recreating

quaint mantle May 31, 2021, 4:11 PM

#

but with comments

tired spoke May 31, 2021, 4:12 PM

#

i've see plugins that starts from 1.13 and has support from 1.8 to 1.16, how they do that? Native version: 1.12/1.13

severe folio May 31, 2021, 4:12 PM

#

quaint mantle but with comments

dont believe you can copy comments, only the header

quaint mantle May 31, 2021, 4:12 PM

#

smth with inputstream and stuff u can

severe folio May 31, 2021, 4:13 PM

#

i mean appending it to the end of the file maybe, but once you save that file then you're gonna lose the comments if you use Bukkit's FileConfiguration#save

quaint mantle May 31, 2021, 4:13 PM

#

yeah ik

#

well nvm gotta find smthing

late dove May 31, 2021, 4:14 PM

#

eternal oxide like <https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/inventory/ItemStack.ht...

I got a map. Then I need to restore.

cobalt blaze May 31, 2021, 4:14 PM

#

check the config if a key of your new section exists, then use FileWriter to append the new default values

#

something like that

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 4:19 PM

#

late dove I got a map. Then I need to restore.

if you are saving and loading items, they are serializable

late dove May 31, 2021, 4:20 PM

#

eternal oxide if you are saving and loading items, they are serializable

It's more convenient for me through the text. The database must be synchronized.

You learn Java

near crypt May 31, 2021, 4:21 PM

#

😉

#

so just get and then the number i guess

quaint mantle May 31, 2021, 4:22 PM

#

eternal oxide You learn Java

your about to get violated for that

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 4:23 PM

#

near crypt so just get and then the number i guess

No

#

You don;t know how many are in the Collection

near crypt May 31, 2021, 4:24 PM

yes obviously i check for null

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 4:24 PM

no

near crypt May 31, 2021, 4:24 PM

but i know it i have a switch statement for that

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 4:24 PM

#

there will be no null values in the collection

near crypt May 31, 2021, 4:25 PM

#

is the position 1 the second element?

#

or is it the first?

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 4:25 PM

no, this is not an array

ivory sleet May 31, 2021, 4:25 PM

Raw types 😬

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 4:30 PM

hey guys, is there a way to get a list of all mob entities? i'd like to spawn a random mob

#

or do i have to manually get all entities and put them in a list before randomizing it

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 4:47 PM

#

There is no log nor sysout in that code

#

you are logging an object

#

somewhere in code that calls

#

what is the init() method?

#

or the updateState method

#

find the log/sysout line

#

somewhere in your update you are logging an object

full holly May 31, 2021, 4:55 PM

#

how can I create a scoreboard in 1.16.5 with packets?

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 4:56 PM

#

no]

#

You understand what a logger is?

#

Somewhere you are using the logger or calling System.out

quaint mantle May 31, 2021, 5:00 PM

#

yeah you're just a noob

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:02 PM

#

there we go, finally

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:04 PM

#

is there an event to change a mob? for example if i spawn a zombie it changes to a chicken

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:04 PM

#

you can't change a mob

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:06 PM

#

you can replace it is all

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:06 PM

#

eternal oxide you can replace it is all

what does that mean?

#

once the zombie spawns it replaces it with a chicken?

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:06 PM

#

no

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:06 PM

#

you can stop the zombie from spawning

#

and spawn a chicken instead

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:07 PM

#

understood

#

how about an event that changes a mob's damage? to make the player flying after every hit

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:07 PM

#

events don't do what you think they do

#

there is a way to change a mob's damage yes, but it doesn't involve events

#

events are things that are called when stuff happens; when a mob spawns, a block is broken, a player joins, so on

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:08 PM

#

ok my apologies, still learning

#

i guess i meant functions since I'm learning the functionality/calls of the spigot api

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:10 PM

#

in java we call functions methods, but yeah, methods

#

here are the javadocs for zombie

#

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/Zombie.html

#

here we can see that it extends Attributable

#

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/attribute/Attributable.html

#

attributable has a method that lets you get a specific attribute of an entity

#

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/attribute/Attributable.html#getAttribute(org.bukkit.attribute.Attribute)

#

it takes an Attribute and returns an AttributeInstance

#

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/attribute/AttributeInstance.html

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:11 PM

#

this is great thank you

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:11 PM

#

attributeinstance then lets you modify the values

#

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/attribute/AttributeInstance.html#setBaseValue(double)

#

f.e by setting the base value

#

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/attribute/AttributeInstance.html#addModifier(org.bukkit.attribute.AttributeModifier)

#

or by adding a new attribute modifier

#

the first thing you want to learn is how to navigate javadocs

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:26 PM

Is there a way to extend or use methods/attributes in other entities?

#

For example can I have a chicken entity inherit creeper methods to make it explode?

fading lake May 31, 2021, 5:27 PM

#

not automatically no, you'd have to program that behaviour yourself

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:39 PM

#

Hmm yeah I wouldn’t want to see the TNT though. Not sure if that will

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:39 PM

#

you can just set an explosion

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:40 PM

#

Ah right on

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:40 PM

#

eternal oxide you can just set an explosion

By the TNT or just a random explosion?

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:40 PM

Pass in teh chicken entity https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/World.html#createExplosion(org.bukkit.Location,float,boolean,boolean,org.bukkit.entity.Entity)>

Ohh very nice

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:41 PM

there is a search box in the top right corner of the javadocs

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:41 PM

#

Create explosion 👀

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:41 PM

#

give it a try

#

write explosion in it

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:41 PM

#

wraith rapids give it a try

I did but ty ✌️

#

again, the first thing you want to learn is how to navigate javadocs

#

searching and being able to find stuff is part of that

#

you can't rely on elgar linking you the relevant methods forever

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:48 PM

#

wrap the code in the runnable in a try/catch

tawdry plume May 31, 2021, 5:48 PM

#

wraith rapids you can't rely on elgar linking you the relevant methods forever

Everyone learns differently

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:49 PM

#

everything that is in the run method

#

2 methods?

#

does update fun?

#

then one of your if statements is failing

#

actually, its probably itemsList is empty

severe folio May 31, 2021, 5:51 PM

#

wouldnt that also possibly mean itemsList.length is 0

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:51 PM

#

itemsList[n] instanceof BetterCraftArmour
this is probably the fault point

#

where are you obtaining the contents of itemsList?

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:51 PM

#

the only way NEITHER of them can run is if there are no items

#

sysout the length

#

of itemList

#

dude

#

if you won;t listen we can;t help you

#

ok, good luck with that then

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:55 PM

#

you do know what that means don't you

#

i wonder what that might be

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:55 PM

#

so colour me surprised. my telling you to add a try/catch would have shown you that

#

Exceptions in anonymous runnables do not get shown in console

ivory sleet May 31, 2021, 5:57 PM

#

They don’t?

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:57 PM

#

are you sure about that

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:57 PM

#

Yep

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:57 PM

#

exceptions in lambdas sure do

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:57 PM

#

I've come across it before

ivory sleet May 31, 2021, 5:58 PM

#

I threw a RuntimeException in an anonymous Runnable and it showed stacktrace just fine.

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:58 PM

#

odd

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 5:59 PM

#

are you maybe confusing it with exceptions in static initializers

ivory sleet May 31, 2021, 5:59 PM

#

Maybe it’s cause the runnable was executed in another thread pool with an unset uncaught exception handler or smtng

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:59 PM

#

thast possible

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 5:59 PM

#

wraith rapids are you maybe confusing it with exceptions in static initializers

nope

#

you never set it

Hi! me again haha.. i'm using getDisplayName() to save an itemstack meta name to config but it doesn't make it readable when it has colors. It still works but is there a way to get &k instead of ยง4ยงk 😄

#

String displayName = inv.getItemInMainHand().getItemMeta().getDisplayName();

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:06 PM

#

set the encoding of the file to utf8

#

for the &'s, use String::replace('§','&')

quaint mantle May 31, 2021, 6:07 PM

#

what does the :: mean?

eternal night May 31, 2021, 6:09 PM

#

similar to the # it sometimes notes that the method is non static

#

String#replace(String, String)
String#replace('§','$')
String::replace('§','$')

#

the :: notations comes from the method reference notation introduced in java 8

I am trying to cancel the default drops for some custom entities so I can replace them with other items
when the entities are spawned I set a string value in their persistent data containers but the value does not persist, as evidenced by debugging my EntityDeathEvent handler
I am not sure why this is the case, or if it is related to how I am spawning the entities
this is the function that attempts to spawn entities and sets the persistent data: https://hatebin.com/diuranwbij
other attributes of the entity that are set before spawning appear to work fine, but the persistent data does not.

How would I go about making the snowballs do Damage?

well heres the thing

there is technally, but then it applies to all snowballs

#

oh you are right

#

there is

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:32 PM

#

listen to whatever event is fired when projectiles hit shit

#

apply a metadata value or a pdc tag to the snowballw when fired

#

and check for that in the event

#

and then use the methods on Damageable

is there a good way to store data on a player? like maybe tags

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:35 PM

#

yes, the persistent data container

#

player implements persistentdataholder

#

if you don't want them to persist over restarts, use metadata or something

cold tartan May 31, 2021, 6:36 PM

#

ok

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:37 PM

#

inv.getItem(slotsMap.get(equipSlot)) == create()
looks dubious

#

are you sure == does what you think it does

#

a == b returns true if and only if a is b

#

a equals b will also return true if a is the same as b

#

for example two Integer objects each representing the value 3 will return false for ==

#

because they are two objects

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 6:38 PM

#


Projectile snowball = p.launchProjectile(Snowball.class);
snowball.setCustomName("snowballLauncherBall");

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:38 PM

#

but they will return true for equals, as they are the same

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 6:38 PM

#

this is how i name the projectile yes?

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:38 PM

#

that is, represent 3

#

inv.getItem always returns a new ItemStack object

#

because the returned itemstack is a clone of the actual itemstack

#

so the object you get will never be == to anything you pull from elsewhere

#

don't name the projectile

#

use a pdc tag or metadata

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:43 PM

the pdc takes a Key, a Type, and a Value

#

and unlike Map, where Key can be anything, PDC only allows you to use NamespacedKey as key

only works for the uuid though

#

can't do string to offlineplayer(string)

as it's deprecated

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

you can

#

read the deprecation note

#

it's not recommended as the default way of getting a player as you should design your shit to look players up by uuid rather than name

twilit rivet May 31, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

lemme play around with it

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

but you still can use it and it does work

#

that said it can fire a blocking network request to mojang, so you shouldn't do it on the main thread

twilit rivet May 31, 2021, 6:48 PM

#

ye, essentially need to do string > player > uuid so only really running it when the query is requested

it's all async so we good

#

@wraith rapids so this would work right?

#

well, not just yet, but...

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:53 PM

why on the 4th line does he set it to pi

#

does it just have to be pi

eternal night May 31, 2021, 6:58 PM

#

idk he is an idiot

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:58 PM

#

this is not the same version of the class as what you're running

eternal night May 31, 2021, 6:58 PM

#

don't listen to that author, he is trash

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:58 PM

#

it doesn't have to be pi

#

it can be any double

eternal night May 31, 2021, 6:58 PM

#

^^ it is an example value

#

that is just a handy double people tend to know

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:59 PM

#

69.420 for example

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 6:59 PM

#

i see

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:59 PM

#

it's just the data you want to store

eternal night May 31, 2021, 6:59 PM

#

that seems too dope to put into the PDC

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:59 PM

#

(key, type, data)

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 6:59 PM

#

so thats the damage value I want to make

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 6:59 PM

#

you could record the damage the snowball should cause in the pdc, yeah

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 6:59 PM

#

say i want snowball to do 3 damage, i put 3?

#

ok

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 7:00 PM

#

create a namespacedkey like yourplugin:custom-damage or whatever

#

use the DOUBLE type

#

and then write a double

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 7:00 PM

#

ok

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 7:01 PM

#

the code that threw the exception and the code that you're showing aren't the same

#

the only case where line 117 would throw a NPE is if the static field 'out' of System is null

#

which I don't expect to be the case

#

doublecheck and triplecheck

#

something is fucked somewhere

#

or actually, did you include the full error?

#

it would make sense if you only posted a part of the error

#

i don't think you did

#

i'm 90% sure there's a Caused by: block following the stack trace you sent

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 7:04 PM

#

                    ItemStack itemStack = ItemStack(Material.SNOWBALL);
                    NamespacedKey key = new NamespacedKey((Plugin) this, "customDamage");
                    ItemMeta itemMeta = itemStack.getItemMeta();
                    itemMeta.getPersistentDataContainer().set(key, PersistentDataType.DOUBLE, 3.0);
                    itemStack.setItemMeta(itemMeta);

#

like this?

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 7:04 PM

#

restart the server, rebuild the project, and try again

#

and send me the entire server log

eternal night May 31, 2021, 7:04 PM

#

the fact that you have to cast this to a Plugin seems wrong

#

you need your plugin main instance there

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

'this' is not a plugin

#

Plugin refers to an instance of your main class

lilac dagger May 31, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

can one create javadocs with github pages?

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

oh

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

the 'this' in onEnable

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 7:06 PM

#

this code is in another class outside of main

#

in a class called snowballLauncher

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 7:06 PM

#

that means that you need to somehow obtain the instance of your main class in there

#

for example by passing it down in a constructor

twilit rivet May 31, 2021, 7:29 PM

#

for async on my database function can I use ```java
Thread newThread = new Thread() -> {
...
}
newThread.start();

eternal night May 31, 2021, 7:30 PM

#

o.O

twilit rivet May 31, 2021, 7:30 PM

#

or is there another way to do it

eternal night May 31, 2021, 7:31 PM

#

the most common way would be a completable future

#

which is then executed on an executor

slate pendant May 31, 2021, 7:48 PM

#

Is using "Bukkit.createInventory" often optimized?

#

or should I keep those inventories

compact haven May 31, 2021, 7:49 PM

#

ah wait, is there no custom model data equivalent for blocks?

#

like if I want to give a new custom model into the game, it has to replace a block?

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 7:52 PM

#

blocks are just a few tightly packed bits in a block palette in a chunk

#

there is no room for extra data like model ids or anything

compact haven May 31, 2021, 7:53 PM

#

so it has to replace a block in the game, for each model? :(

#

its so unfortunate they cant even toss in a few bytes for a custom model data

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 7:53 PM

#

the exception to this is a tile entity, which is a totally separate thing from blocks and has more in common with a regular entity than a regular block

#

a more apt name might be voxel entity

compact haven May 31, 2021, 7:53 PM

#

yeah but then I'm just better off placing an armor stand with an item on it's head

#

since its the same thing

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 7:54 PM

#

there are some blocks like mushroom blocks and note blocks that have a large number of block states that you could use a resourcepack to apply custom textures to

#

but no, aside from maybe fucking with tile entities, there is no way to add anything new

#

everything you do involves replacing something that exists

#

since block states and all of their combinations are pre-baked

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:07 PM

#

minecraft should introduce an block that specially occupies 4 bytes or smth as a custom model block :[

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:08 PM

#

it'd have to be a tile entity with the way how things currently work

#

currently, a block is just a few bits in a block palette

#

basically, a palette maps a number to each material type that exists in the chunk

#

and then the chunk contains those numbers

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:09 PM

#

🤔 so every block with a custom state is a tile entity?

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:09 PM

#

I think they might not even be too far off that.They also added I think minecraft:marker which is an entity that doesn't tick at all

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:09 PM

#

like a door for example has facing states, waterlogged, all of that

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:09 PM

#

since most chunks only contain a few kinds of block types, the resulting numbers are only a few bits in size

#

no, that is not a tile entity

#

but it has additional state

#

which is tracked separately

#

a door for example has a handful of state fields

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:10 PM

#

then yeah why cant they add what I said and just track is separately

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:10 PM

#

whether it's open, which side the hinges are on, whether it's the top or bottom block

#

because all states need to be pre-baked

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:10 PM

#

do you know how the current block states are implemented dlg?

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:10 PM

#

wdym banana

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:11 PM

#

how its stored in the block registry, and how its sent to the client

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:11 PM

#

for example, a note block has a few thousand different states

#

or was that a few hundred

#

i don't remember

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:11 PM

#

and what the difference between a tile entity is or not

sullen dome May 31, 2021, 8:11 PM

#

thousands? lol

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:11 PM

#

i know redstone has thousands

#

noteblocks have a few hundred

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:12 PM

#

📎 dump.txt

#

heres the block palette for 1.15

#

and you can maybe get a better idea of how they're stored dlg

sullen dome May 31, 2021, 8:12 PM

#

gentle yacht

that looks like my old end-2019 shitcode

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:12 PM

#

oh tf

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:12 PM

#

basically, every possible combination of each attribute is precomputed and assigned a number

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:12 PM

#

hmmnm

#

there was about 8xxx blockstates

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:13 PM

#

I see, I thought they would store a few bytes for the block id then afew for the state

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:13 PM

#

the only difference that tile entities have is that they also get an additional NBTTagCompound to store in the mca files

#

but thats really it

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:13 PM

#

but if its precomputed then having any extra data thats not locked is impossible

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:13 PM

#

yea

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:13 PM

#

block state can only hold different combinations of predefined data

#

block data can hold arbitrary data in the form of nbt

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:14 PM

#

you can add extra block states to the block palette if you want, but they need to have the existing id of a vanilla blockstate otherwise they dont appear on the client

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:14 PM

#

annoyingly enough, bukkit calls block state blockdata, and block data blockstate

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:14 PM

#

lmao

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:14 PM

#

might just add a block type that contains block state that only references a single integer

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:14 PM

#

yeah, that seems like a relatively sensible approach

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:14 PM

#

which is mapped on the client side to the respective model

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:14 PM

#

using tile entities for it would have a bit too much overhead i'd wager

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:15 PM

#

it would be fine if the server sent the client the list of blockstates and their ids

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:15 PM

#

Yeah you wouldn't want them ticked by default

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:15 PM

#

so that the server could add additional numbers

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:15 PM

#

i mean, the additional numbers would just be loaded from the resourcepack

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:15 PM

#

so say I wanted to replace snare with a note of 24 in predicates, is that even possible?

Block states

Block states are extra pieces of data that further define a block, such as how it appears or behaves.

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:15 PM

#

and different states

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:15 PM

#

it'd limit you to only having 2^32 different custom block states

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:15 PM

#

I don't think mojang would actually implement a registry sync for the available block types banana

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:16 PM

#

but the same limit is in place with the model ids for items

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:16 PM

#

well theres always a limit

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:16 PM

#

eternal night I don't think mojang would actually implement a registry sync for the available ...

maybe not, but otherwise it means that the registry is hardcoded for every version and subversion 😳

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:16 PM

#

usually its an integer

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:16 PM

#

it'd be more feasible to hardcode the client to treat a specific range of block states as things to be loaded from the resourcepack if present

#

and then assign that range to a specific block

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:17 PM

#

I mean, a fully dynamic approach seems problematic because the server would also have to send assets for it else a missing resource pack might explode

#

and at that point you are in mod land

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:17 PM

#

nah

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:17 PM

#

which like, mc java doesn't care about

#

because why

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:17 PM

#

no, the resource pack doesnt have to be synced

#

it would just show a missing texture if it wasn't in the pack

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:18 PM

#

oh yay we are in garrys mod hell

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:18 PM

#

perhaps there could be a NewBlockState packet, that has the new block state id, then another id representing a state already in the game, which would be the texture & model if a resource pack doesnt override it?

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:18 PM

#

its moderately possible, if they chose to do it

#

the sending of the registry

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:18 PM

#

It definitely would be yes xD

#

just work that they are probably not going to ever focus on

#

a single block with custom state seems easier

#

like, same with custom model data

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:19 PM

#

like, we're already kind of doing the whole "hardcode the client to treat a specific range of blockstates to be loaded from the resourcepack" thing

#

we just don't have a dedicated block for it

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:19 PM

#

though the registry would practically have to be locked on world generation, since if u start replacing and adding block states it'll cause problems with already added blocks

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:19 PM

#

so we're using noteblocks and mushroom blocks

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:19 PM

#

NNY

#

idrk what to call you but

#

so say I wanted to replace snare with a note of 24 in predicates, is that even possible?
"https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Block_states#Note_Block"

Block states

Block states are extra pieces of data that further define a block, such as how it appears or behaves.

#

is that possible with a resource pack predicate?

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:20 PM

#

having a disposable range of a few thousand states that wouldn't be used in vanilla normally would pretty much solve the whole issue

#

yes yes you can do whatever

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:20 PM

#

yes dlg

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:20 PM

#

tbf a single blockwith custom "model" blockstate might still have its issues regarding hitboxs

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:20 PM

#

yeah they could just whitelist 0 to like x and then every minecraft block would start from there :(

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:20 PM

#

depends on how thorough the support is

#

i don't think we can change block models currently, even for specific block states

gentle yacht May 31, 2021, 8:20 PM

#

you can replace any state in the list i sent with 1 custom block model

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:20 PM

#

that'd have to be possible for it to work

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:21 PM

#

actually no, that wouldn't even be an issue

#

there are already blocks that change hitbox based on blockstate

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:21 PM

#

yeah there are

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:21 PM

#

e.g stairs

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:21 PM

#

but idk if resourcepacks support modifying them

#

at present, anyway

#

i know for sure we can change the texture of a blockstate, not so sure bout the model

#

i'm not really a resourcepack guy

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:22 PM

#

I don't think they can right now 😭

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:22 PM

#

but, since items already support custom models, it shouldn't be too difficult to implement for blockstates either

compact haven May 31, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

imagine if minecraft was open source

eternal night May 31, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

imagine how many trash version of minecraft would be around

xD

#

ngl, the deobf maps are good enough imo

also depending on a modified client seems like a big hurdle for servers

then what is the problem

#

the file containing the config file is

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

the directory?

#

the plugin directory?

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

sorry to bother again, but this time i want to see if a player has an item with a custom name (Grey name, "Ammo Box"), i have
if(p.getInventory().containsAtLeast(new ItemStack(Material.CHEST), 1)){
Which just finds if they have a chest, how do i check the chest's name?

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

that is controlled by the value in plugin.yml

#

your plugin's name

#

don't check against name

#

write a tag in the persistent data container of the itemstack

#

to mark it as an ammo box

#

then check for that

#

relying on item names is old fashioned, performs poorly, and is error prone

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 8:36 PM

#

ah i see

#

~~i'm still not too familiar on how to do a pdc~~

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:37 PM

#

an item's pdc is accessible through the ItemMeta

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 8:37 PM

#

ok

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:37 PM

#

create a namespacedkey along the lines of yourplugin:item-type of type PersistentDataType.STRING

#

and then save the item type, f.e "ammo_box" on the pdc

#

pdc.set(key, PersistentDataType.STRING, "ammo_box")

#

then you can check whether an item is an ammo box by doing pdc.get(key, PersistentDataType.STRING) and comparing to "ammo_box"

cedar hamlet May 31, 2021, 8:39 PM

#

ight

#

ty

sharp bough May 31, 2021, 8:40 PM

#

also could you tell me why whenever i make a change in the config file it resets to the default?
is it because of the config.options().copyDefaults(true); in the AddDefaults ?

#

this.saveDefaultConfig();
new AddDefaults().add();
saveConfig();

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:41 PM

#

define change

sharp bough May 31, 2021, 8:41 PM

#

sharp bough this.saveDefaultConfig(); new AddDefaults().add(); saveConfig();

thats on the onEnable

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:41 PM

#

yeah don't do that

#

the only thing you need is saveDefaultConfig

sharp bough May 31, 2021, 8:41 PM

#

wraith rapids define change

like i set
test: true
and if the default is false it goes back to false

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:41 PM

#

defaults are already read from your bundled config.yml

#

just call saveDefaultConfig and nothing else on startup and you're fine

sharp bough May 31, 2021, 8:44 PM

#

but do i add this after the defaults? config.options().copyDefaults(true);

#

cuz now theres nothing on the config file

#

        this.saveDefaultConfig();```

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 8:45 PM

#

if you make changes you save teh config not the default

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 8:45 PM

#

don't copy defaults

#

you don't need to copy defaults

sharp bough May 31, 2021, 8:47 PM

the config file is empty

#

bro i dont get it
main:
https://paste.md-5.net/rupozecopa.java
addDefaults:
https://paste.md-5.net/bequmoniba.java
if i do it like this the config file is empty when i start the plugin even tho i have the this.saveDefaultConfig
and to fix this i have to add
config.options().copyDefaults(true);
wich adds the data to the config file but doesnt let me edit it

#

doesnt the saveDefaultConfig save the raw data to the config file? so if i add the defaults the saveDefaultConfig should add all of that data to the config file

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 9:08 PM

#

no

#

savedefaultconfig yanks your config.yml out of your plugin jar

sharp bough May 31, 2021, 9:08 PM

#

now the weird part is, the data is there and i can work with it inside the server, but it doesnt show

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 9:08 PM

#

and writes it to disk

#

it doesn't deal with any defaults you set programmatically

granite stirrup May 31, 2021, 9:08 PM

#

wraith rapids it doesn't deal with any defaults you set programmatically

dont u use save config for that?

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 9:09 PM

#

saveconfig saves the in-memory config object that you may have modified

#

savedefaultconfig extracts and saves the config.yml file that is in your jar

#

which is why the former kills comments and the latter doesn't; the latter doesn't actually touch any config parsing shit anywhere

#

it just copies a file

eternal oxide May 31, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

savedefault only copies the jar config and saves to file if there is no file there alread

wraith rapids May 31, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

it's functionally equivalent to saveResource("config.yml", false)

#

if you want to specify your config and its defaults programmatically, use a better config api/framework

#

you can probably get it to work with the bukkit config api too but i wouldn't recommend it
