bad news: the zombie doesnt utilize jump boost to its full potential :(

[sullen geyser]

Time to make a plugin 😏

[shadow tide]

ok, good and bad news, good news: my give commands work, bad news: none of my events work

[solid cargo]

check if you set up curly braces correctly

good old days when i also did so big rookie mistakes

and still do

[sullen geyser]

Everyone is 🤷‍♂️

[shadow tide]

I'm not stupid, and I have my @EventHandler lol https://paste.md-5.net/nalegaduho.cs

[solid cargo]

thats the same thing as assuming there is a person https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nC_14l9cdXw

[sullen geyser]

You have on one of the listeners

[quiet ice]

Did you register the listener though?

you gotta add @EventHandler

[shadow tide]

I did

[paper geyser]

NOOOO

[solid cargo]

yes im also bad at java

[sullen geyser]

@fresh temple

Even where are you?

[solid cargo]

@fresh temple

[paper geyser]

SORRY

[sullen geyser]

We need you even

[shadow tide]

lol

but, actually. where am I missing @EventHandler

[quartz pike]

on both methods

[shadow tide]

^

[sullen geyser]

On the bottom method

[quartz pike]

you have to put on both methods

[shadow tide]

k, now everything works except my "Admin Wand"

[sullen geyser]

Oh no, not the admin wand 😢

[solid cargo]

what does the wand do? is it abusive? if yes then abort it, if no, then continue fixing it!

[shadow tide]

sorry dude

[shadow tide]

its not

it does a ton of damage thats all

it doesn't kick or ban or anything like that

[solid cargo]

https://sky.shiiyu.moe/stats/Plancke/Blueberry#Armor go look at this player's armor

it kinda counts as abusive of my opinion

I wasn't even talking to u lol

[solid cargo]

anyways, people want to help you. if they ask you to learn java, learn it!

[paper geyser]

out of curiosity

[solid cargo]

and yes, im bad at java stop screaming at me about saying stuff that applies to me

[paper geyser]

how many people came here trying to make their first plugin and got the "learn java" card pulled on them

pretty sure that's a majority

[solid cargo]

ALL OF THEM

Short question:
I try to add values in my Database with my plugin. and i created the following Class for it:
https://hastebin.com/zasecupifo.java
inmy main class i call

private MySQLMethoden mySQLMethoden;

public void onEnable() {
mySQLMethoden = new MySQLMethoden(this);

but i get the following error, when the respective methods are executed via the server.
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1
at de.straussfalke.straussfalkeplugin.MySQL.MySQLMethods.addPlayer(MySQLMethods.java:22)
the error leads back to the line
stmt.execute();
can anyone help me with this by any chance?

[quaint mantle]

dayn

peace door ball

[quaint mantle]

how can I make one stick get into my hand when I click a stick?

if you take it in the left hand, 1 stick will be taken from the left hand, if you take it in the right hand, 1 stick will be taken, if you take it in 2 hands, the left and right hands are used.
how can this be done normally?

what

I need to take the object out of my hand

[stone sinew]

PlayerInteractEvent.getHand() == EquipmentSlot.HAND

[quaint mantle]

no

you want a stick to switch hands?\

yes, and it doesn't matter in which hand

[stone sinew]

^^^^

[quaint mantle]

if the click is in the right hand, pick up from the right

if the click is in the left, pick up from the left

if the click is in the left and in the right, pick up from the right

[eternal oxide]

I gave you all the code yesterday to reduce a stack size. You just need to apply that to which ever hand you are using.

[stone sinew]

if(PlayerInteractEvent.getHand() == EqupmentSlot.HAND)
    player.getItemInMainHand().setAmount(<>)
else
    player.getItemInOffHand().setAmount(<>)

[quaint mantle]

thanks

I will try

you have to account for a couple of things such as if the hand is filled

how?

figure it out 🤷🏿‍♂️

I can't do it in any way

[stone sinew]

Actually could just do

ItemStack item = PlayerInteractEvent.getHand() == EquipmentSlot.HAND ? player.getItemInMainHand() : player.getItemInOffHand();
item.setAmount(<>);

[quaint mantle]

yeah but you have to switch the item to the other hand

that ternary shoots itself in the leg

[stone sinew]

he didn't ask that

[quaint mantle]

he did

and if I press it in two hands at once

[eternal oxide]

You can;t press it in both at once

two events will fire

[stone sinew]

^^

[quaint mantle]

I can, if I take 2 blocks in my hands and stand at point-blank range

[eternal oxide]

no you can't

[quaint mantle]

How about I record a video and send it?

[eternal oxide]

You will see both placed, but its TWO events

[quaint mantle]

yes

2

left, right hands

@quaint mantle

how can this be done?

cancel the event

if the other hand isnt a stick or is full
    return

take it from the hand
give it to the other

I didn't understand. I use a translator it's bad

can you write the code please?

🥄

?

[chrome beacon]

?spoon

[undone axle]

Spoonfeed a newbie for a day and they'll come back with more questions. Teach them to find their own answers and you'll both be better off: you won't get stuck answering the easy questions and they'll be much more productive than before.

[quaint mantle]

what?

[chrome beacon]

Yeah that command didn't really fit there

[quaint mantle]

event.setCancelled(true);

ItemStack item;
ItemStack alternate;

if event.getHand() == HAND {
    item = event.getPlayer().getItemInMainHand();
    alternate = event.getPlayer().getItemInOffHand();
}
else if (event.getHand() == OFF_HAND) {
    item = event.getPlayer().getItemInOffHand();
    alternate = event.getPlayer().getItemInMainHand();
}
else {
    return;
}

if (item != STICK || alternate != STICK || alternate.getAmount() == 64) {
    return;
}

item.setAmount(item.getAmount() - 1);
alternate.setAmount(alternate.getAmount() + 1);

now dont you dare just copy and paste this

okay

thanks

thats why i made the code not work syntatically or whatever the word is

I'll try

[eternal oxide]

CTRL+C

[quaint mantle]

))

e.setCancelled(true);

                    ItemStack item;
                    ItemStack alternate;

                    if (e.getHand() == EquipmentSlot.HAND) {
                        item = e.getPlayer().getInventory().getItemInMainHand();
                        alternate = e.getPlayer().getInventory().getItemInOffHand();
                    }
                    else if (e.getHand() == EquipmentSlot.OFF_HAND) {
                        item = e.getPlayer().getInventory().getItemInOffHand();
                        alternate = e.getPlayer().getInventory().getItemInMainHand();
                    }
                    else {
                        return;
                    }

                    if (item != ItemUtil.item(Material.STICK, null) || alternate != ItemUtil.item(Material.STICK, null) || alternate.getAmount() == 64) {
                        return;
                    }

                    item.setAmount(item.getAmount() - 1);
                    alternate.setAmount(alternate.getAmount() + 1);
    
                }

not working

[eternal oxide]

He did say it would not work if your copy/paste it

read it, learn from it and do it.

[quaint mantle]

okay

I copied it and changed it

worked

thanks

@quaint mantle

np

if you take the sticks in 2 hands, writes HAND and OFF_HAND

how to fix it?

?

sticks

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[quaint mantle]

https://paste.md-5.net/ihijajarum.coffeescript

I need that if the sticks are in two hands, I climb with my right hand until I run out of sticks

ItemUtil.item(Material.STICK, null) what even is this

one sec

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

thats so useless??

just check if the type is a stick

actually

private final ItemStack stick = new ItemStack(Material.STICK);

why create an item everytime you click it?

tnt

I need to pick up 1 dynamite after triggering

What

[eternal oxide]

lol, I have no idea what he's doing, sticks in hands lets you climb, sticks change hands depending on how you click, now you get tnt using sticks?

[quaint mantle]

no idea

no

I just need to pick up a stick from the inventory when I click on it

[hasty prawn]

Maybe their plugin is worshiping stick gods

[eternal oxide]

Lets build a house, with sticks

[hasty prawn]

Just hope there's no wolf

[quaint mantle]

🐺

🌬️

if you take the stick in your left hand and the event is getItemInHand, nothing will happenъ

I need to pick up one stick when clicking on it

whaaaa

did i not give you the solution?

🤨

,

?

[dense remnant]

public class ChunkListener implements Listener {
    Random random = new Random();
    int amount = Main.instance.getConfig().getInt("amount");

    @EventHandler
    public void onChunkPopulate(ChunkPopulateEvent e) {
        for (int i = 0; i < amount; i++) {

            int x = random.nextInt(16);
            int z = random.nextInt(16);

            Block b = e.getChunk().getBlock(x, 0, z);
            int y = e.getWorld().getHighestBlockYAt(b.getLocation());
            e.getChunk().getBlock(x, y + 1, z).setType(Material.FIRE);
        }
    }
}

How do I improve that? I am getting some rubber banding when using that so is there a way to not stop all server activity while changing the blocks?

[quaint mantle]

this is a great tutorial

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/guide-on-workload-distribution-or-how-to-handle-heavy-splittable-tasks.409003/

@quaint mantle

help me please

[dense remnant]

Thanks Ill try

[quaint mantle]

i would if i could

but i have no idea what you're trying to do

How about I take a video and send it?

im having some issues with my server. it keep saying "Unable to register Log4j shutdown hook because JVM is shutting down. Using SimpleLogger" and then getting in a restart loop

[shadow tide]

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

[shadow tide]

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

show the full event

[opal juniper]

also - why not just use the pdc

?

wdym

?pdc instead of checking the meta

You could also use launchProjectile

[shadow tide]

I'm dumb

[quaint mantle]

@shadow tide check your pings

[shadow tide]

and I've never heard of launchProjectile

[shadow tide]

cool

[shadow tide]

can I just copy and paste my meta? or do I need to make it again?

[quaint mantle]

?

[shadow tide]

can I use the same meta

[quaint mantle]

ye

[shadow tide]

k

[quaint mantle]

its just a tutorial on how to better manage your items

[shadow tide]

cool

[quaint mantle]

yes conclure, im adding a pdc page

[shadow tide]

good

[ivory sleet]

everything was perfect until I saw

if () {
}
else {

[quaint mantle]

Shut

[ivory sleet]

its supposed to be }else{ 😄

[quaint mantle]

Ewwww

its so hard to read

[ivory sleet]

no

u

[young knoll]

if () { } else 
{
}

[quaint mantle]

wtf

if (asdsd) {
    something();
} else {
    other();
}

if (asdsd) {
    something();
}
else {
    other();
}

^ its just so much better

[ivory sleet]

former, former, former

[ivory sleet]

[shadow tide]

where is that?

I should also stop using managers and start using seperate classes

[ivory sleet]

depends what those managers are

manager itself is quite the ambiguous term imo

[shadow tide]

My item manager has EVERY item in it

[ivory sleet]

so its an item repository then or item registry

but yes using separate classes is probably good if you're looking to make your code more reusable

[lavish hemlock]

I prefer the former

but in this situation I'm more prone to doing a

if (asdsd) something();
else other();

or sometimes

if (asdsd)
    something();
else other();

(but that's only really if asdsd has a longer name)

[ivory sleet]

if (x) if (y) o(); else p(); else a();

[quaint mantle]

inline ifs are only really used for null checks or validation calls

[lavish hemlock]

I prefer removing redundant information over "readability" for other people

[ivory sleet]

I prefer verbosity

[lavish hemlock]

this is awful though

[quaint mantle]

condition = True

print("true" if condition else "false")

[lavish hemlock]

oh yeah why the fuck does Python use True instead of true?

[quaint mantle]

I dont know

i hate it

i think its because its not a keyword, its just a constant

atleast it doesnt use nil

[lavish hemlock]

you see now one of the reasons I dislike Python

stylization

it is such a mixed language in terms of its style

[shadow tide]

// Cancel the event. This prevents the player from interacting with the item. does this mean that they won't be able to right click?

[chrome beacon]

Yes

google’s stylesheet does not agree with you

I made a plugin you can shout water sources with. But if there are exactly 5, 7, 9, 11,.... Blocks between me and the target its not getting hit. That means the water is not being placed on every block on the vector between me and the target. How can I fix that?

getting this error while compiling for 1.17 and JDK 16 with Maven (I can't seem to find a solution on the forums:
Unsupported class file major version 60

[shadow tide]

stupid question, I want to organize my plugin, can you use onEnable in a class other than the main?

[hasty jackal]

you cannot

[shadow tide]

k

[hasty prawn]

The class has to extend JavaPlugin to use onEnable, and you can only have 1 class do that. Technically you could have onEnable call another method in another class and do all the work in there

[chrome beacon]

You're not using Java 16 to run

[blissful folio]

I should be where can I check if I do? I'm on IntelliJ

@quaint mantle private final ItemStack wand; this is unused

?

[shadow tide]

in your tutorial thing

[quaint mantle]

what

[shadow tide]

you did private final ItemStack vanisherItem;

[slim kernel]

pls help

[chrome beacon]

Open project settings and see the target jdk

[quaint mantle]

okay?

[shadow tide]

it says its unused, is it even necessary

[quaint mantle]

yeah?

what 😂

[shadow tide]

The value of the field Wand.wand is not used

sorry

[hasty prawn]

It is used

[shadow tide]

when?

[hasty prawn]

public ItemStack getItemStack() {
    return vanisherItem;
}

[quaint mantle]

also when you're checking the item

[hasty prawn]

Yep

[shadow tide]

I did that with a pdc

just my little twist

pls

[shadow tide]

help him

Are you using maven or gradle?

And how are you building

[quaint mantle]

https://github.com/ImajinDevon/SpigotCamp/blob/master/ItemPDC.md @shadow tide

[blissful folio]

I'm using Maven and building by clicking package

[shadow tide]

thanks for the pdc tutorial, these are going to be very helpful and whenever I need something I'm going to look here https://github.com/ImajinDevon/SpigotCamp before asking at this discord server

[quaint mantle]

👍🏿

[chrome beacon]

Does the error come when building or running server?

[blissful folio]

When building

[chrome beacon]

Hm

Since you're building with Intellij it should use the correct jdk

What you could do is just fix your path to jdk16 in case it doesn use the right one

one more thing, if you have time can you make an entityPDC tutorial, right now I know how but I can see myself forgetting

[chrome beacon]

Are you on Windows?

[quaint mantle]

yeah sure

[blissful folio]

yep

[quaint mantle]

please write if you are here

Alright want to continue in DMs so we don't flood the chat here?

[blissful folio]

Sure

[opal juniper]

or a thread

[chrome beacon]

Oh yeah threads exist

[shadow tide]

make a thread

okay

lol

[quaint mantle]

i am not anyone's personal help assistant, i will help you if i can

[opal juniper]

can you help me

[quaint mantle]

Ok

[opal juniper]

List<String> strings = Arrays.stream(FillType.values()).map(Object::toString).collect(Collectors.toList());

im not familiar with streams

how could i filter out

any that are "AIR"

(that ^^^ may be a terrible way to do it - i haven't used them before)

[quaint mantle]

List<String> strings = Arrays.stream(FillType.values())
    .filter(m -> !m.isAir())
    .map(Material::toString)
    .collect(Collectors.toList());

might wanna use Material::name

[opal juniper]

oh

they arent materials

[quaint mantle]

what are they

[opal juniper]

just strings

[shadow tide]

instead of using two if statements is there a way to use some sort of or here? java if(event.getAction() == Action.RIGHT_CLICK_AIR)

[opal juniper]

i just wanna shove them in a dropdown

(not spigot at all)

i just thought i had seen you talking about streams b4

and i am going caveman brain on this

[quaint mantle]

yeah i know about streams i just dont know what you're doing

[young knoll]

In java, || is for 'or'

[quaint mantle]

is filltype an enum?

[shadow tide]

k

[opal juniper]

Enums -> List of strings

ie their values

[shadow tide]

I knew that I just forgot don't you dare learnjava me

[quaint mantle]

List<String> values = Arrays.stream(FillType.values())
    .map(FillType::name)
    .collect(Collectors.toList());

[opal juniper]

and a .filter(name -> !name.equalsIgnoreCase("AIR")) ?

ig

yep works

thanks

[quaint mantle]

@quaint mantle, can you help me?

[karmic bear]

why are there wierd circumstances
where you do this
SomeClass someclass = SomeClass.create("thing");
instead of like
SomeClassclient someclass = new SomeClass("thing");

[quaint mantle]

SomeClass.create would be a utility constructor

new SomeClass(things), things would be all the required info

for example i could create a person

new Person("A", "B", 25, parentA, parentB)

i could make a utility method to generate a random person

public static Person randomBaby(Parent a, Parent b) {
    return new Person(NameUtil.random(), NameUtil.random(), 0, a, b);
}

you also see this in UUID.randomUuid

[shadow tide]

omg how much better is this https://paste.md-5.net/culugeguge.java instead of this https://paste.md-5.net/itosemivog.cs, THANK YOU SO MUCH @quaint mantle

[quaint mantle]

instead of making a random one on constructor, it has a method for that

[quaint mantle]

haha nice 👍🏿

[shadow tide]

@quaint mantle please actually click on the link and read it

[quaint mantle]

use returns instead of nesting a bunch of if statements

[paper viper]

Lol

[quaint mantle]

programming discord HOF images

[quaint mantle]

it doesn't work

                        }

your ide should be telling you that this is redundant

[shadow tide]

is he even using an IDE?

please, don't say no

it hurts

[quaint mantle]

its a bunch of tabs, so i assume its not a good one

[shadow tide]

JUST USE ECLIPSE, ITS SOOOOOOO EASY

[quaint mantle]

Intellij 💪🏿

[shadow tide]

either are cool

just not some random one you found in a "Top 10 Progamming IDEs, Number 1 on our list is Microsoft Notepad!"

[hasty prawn]

You should be using BlockPlaceEvent if you want auto-igniting TNT. That would get rid of the double tnt and placing it when you can't actually put it somewhere.

[quaint mantle]

then it will not work in places where it is impossible to put blocks

[hasty prawn]

So you just don't want it to double place?

Add a cooldown or something

[young knoll]

You can still listen to cancelled events

[opal juniper]

bUt ItS cANcEllEd

[shadow tide]

@quaint mantle is it ok if this is public? private final ItemStack wand;

[quaint mantle]

no

use a getter

[shadow tide]

k

can I just use the one that eclipse creates for me?

when I hover over the error

[quaint mantle]

its just a getter

[shadow tide]

k

idk

so

[quaint mantle]

public ItemStack getWand() {
    return wand;
}

Ewwwwww

its eclipse!

eclipse uses tabs 🤮

[hasty prawn]

🤮

[shadow tide]

c'mon, eclipse is fine

[eternal oxide]

The bestest evar!

[shadow tide]

people can have opinions, just not if they are blatantly stupid lol

Wand.getWand() this gives me an error because my getter isn't static but it can't be static

[quaint mantle]

so make an instance

[shadow tide]

oh, ye me dumb

[quaint mantle]

remeber

@Override
public void onEnable(){
    VanisherItem vanisherItem = new VanisherItem();

    // Register the item events.
    this.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(vanisherItem, this);
}

[quiet ice]

you can change it.
But better than intelliJ decompiler which uses 3 spaces for indentation

[quaint mantle]

pretty sure you can change that too

[exotic obsidian]

guys

how i can cancel particale packets?

[quiet ice]

Yes, of course. But having 3 spaces for indentation by default is a bit cruel

[quaint mantle]

u right

tabs 🤡

[quiet ice]

Either tabs or 2/4 spaces. But not 3

[shadow tide]

can you make a tutorial for commands lol, right now I'm using a command manager copied from a bad startup youtube channel and compared to my item it looks all f*cked up

I am trying to make an npc to test my plugin on and i thought it would be as simple as making a new player and setting their location to me in game but it doesnt seem like it can anybody help me?

all i did was: Player testPlayer = new Player; testPlayer.teleport(sender);

[quaint mantle]

thats not even valid java

[idle cove]

how is it

[young knoll]

You can't just create a new player anyway

[quaint mantle]

[idle cove]

oh how would i do it then?

[quaint mantle]

Google it

[quiet ice]

While technically possible, given that you ask this question, no

your IDE should have been screaming at you

[quiet ice]

Not possible, at all

[idle cove]

yeah i did get an error from my ide thats why i was confused

i didnt test it yet

i wouldnt be able to anyway

[quiet ice]

And don't bother googling it, creating fake players is far beyond your knowledge

[idle cove]

?

[shadow gazelle]

Is it possible to set custom item meta for recipe ingredients?

[eternal oxide]

Its a complex task of diving down to core minecraft code and other wizardry

[quiet ice]

There are libraries that will aid you, but they won't abstract out everything

[shadow gazelle]

With just a shapedrecipe

[young knoll]

Take a look at RecipeChoice.ExactChoice

Thanks

[quaint mantle]

how can I prohibit the left hand if the click was in the right hand?

[shadow tide]

does it give an error if you add a command to the plugin.yml that doesn't exist? because idk if I can add future commands to it.

[young knoll]

I mean adding a command to the plugin.yml is what makes the command exist

So

[shadow tide]

so what?

[young knoll]

So you can't add a command to the plugin.yml that doesn't exist

[shadow tide]

k

[echo basalt]

ProtocolLib

[quaint mantle]

how can I prohibit the left hand if the click was in the right hand?

[echo basalt]

you mean
list.size() == 2
?

[echo basalt]

Left hand gets called first

It's weird but PlayerInteractEvent gets called twice

[young knoll]

Java has a queue interface

[echo basalt]

Once for each hand

[echo basalt]

Some lists are part of that though

[quaint mantle]

if (e.getHand() == EquipmentSlot.HAND) {

[echo basalt]

yeah whatever

[quaint mantle]

how to cancel the left hand?

[echo basalt]

just event.setCancelled

or just ignore that event if it's left hand

[quaint mantle]

how?

[young knoll]

Just return

[quaint mantle]

how?

[young knoll]

return

[quaint mantle]

okay

how?

[quasi flint]

#help-server

[quaint mantle]

ok

Is there a way to access the yaw and pitch of a player (ie the facing information in the F3 menu for clients). Location#getYaw provides the yaw for the body not the head

[young knoll]

getEyeLocation

I believe

[quaint mantle]

getEyeLocation's yaw and pitch are identical to getLocation

[shadow tide]

I'm trying to spawn an arrow and someone told me about the launchprojectile method, how do I use it, or more specifically where do I use it?

hello?

I mean, its not like I'm interrupting a question, soooo

any1 home?

[eternal night]

seems like they all left

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/projectiles/ProjectileSource.html#launchProjectile(java.lang.Class,org.bukkit.util.Vector)

the javadocs are rather straight forward

[shadow tide]

ik, I need to know where to put it

[eternal night]

whenever you want to spawn the arrow ?

[shadow tide]

Ik its spoonfeeding but its one small question, so can you tell me the syntax please

@eternal night

[eternal night]

it is a normal java method ?

[quaint mantle]

wdym where? Clearly its a method for the projectile. So you call it on the projectilesource in whatever trigger you're using, whether its an eventhandler or what

[eternal night]

no

you call it on an entity that can launch a projectile

e.g. basically every entity

if you just want to spawn a arrow without a shooter, use the normal spawn methods on the world

[shadow tide]

thank u

got it

sorry if it look like i'm being stupid but would this work? java Projectile entity = player.launchProjectile(Arrow.class, velocity); ((AbstractArrow) entity).setDamage(999999);

[eternal night]

the method should return you an arrow instance

you can just store that in a variable instead of casting it like this

[shadow tide]

?

store what?

[eternal night]

instead of casting it randomly like this you can just: ```java
final Arrow arrow = player.launchProjectile(Arrow.class, velocity);
arrow.setDamage(1);

[shadow tide]

ooh

What does final do?

I've been meaning to ask

[eternal night]

you cannot change the variable reference after assigning it

e.g. ```java
final String a = "hi";
a = "bye";

[shadow tide]

does it have any cases where it is needed?

[eternal night]

I don't think there is a need for a specific final variable in java.

there is implicit final variables

which are required to use a variable inside a lambda

[shadow tide]

I literally have no idea what lambda means lol

[eternal night]

yea then don't worry about it xD

[shadow tide]

I wish there was a way to reload the plugins in a minecraft server without restarting it

[hasty prawn]

./reload?

[shadow tide]

does that reload everything in the plugin?

[turbid tiger]

Hey guys does CraftItemStack class not exist anymore?

[hasty prawn]

It calls onDisable & onEnable again, and I think it clears all your Lists and Maps

[turbid tiger]

Im playing around with 1.17 spigot api, cant find the import

[shadow tide]

k

@eternal night it isn't spawning anything

here is my item and event https://paste.md-5.net/qakesowacu.java

[hasty jackal]

yes

[eternal night]

validate that the respective code is executed

[shadow tide]

?

u need my main class?

[eternal night]

no just validate that your code is actually called in that event

[shadow tide]

? wdym

[eternal night]

e.g. that the wand.isSimilar check is not messing you up

[hasty jackal]

craftbukkit & nms are not included in the api, you need the full spigot jar as a dependency

[shadow tide]

I don't think it is, in another item it is basically copied and pasted but with a few meta and event changes and it works

[young knoll]

Loop it and use getName

[shadow tide]

@eternal night

[eternal night]

idk what to tell you xD

the method works

whatever else you throw around it is on you

[turbid tiger]

yes I have entire jar as dependency. i found it it was just eclipse being stupid.

One question however, is net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack the proper nms itemstack?

[limpid bone]

IntelliJ is not letting me import, how do i fix? if i dont it simply says "cannot find symbol"

[exotic obsidian]

anyone know how i can hide particales to player?

without ProtocolLib

[quaint mantle]

whats the best way to display particles on an entity, while it's alive

should i just do as my question states

while(!Entity#isDead()){

particle stuff

}

?

or nah

[paper viper]

use that and also a boolean to enable it too and stuff

[quaint mantle]

okayyy

so that while() shouldnt cause much lag, right

if its just like 10-20 entities?

[paper viper]

i would still recommend like a 1 second delay per check or something tick related

and def make it async

[quaint mantle]

so ok

wait

so i should..

check for the creation of that entity, check conds to make sure its the right entity

make a while(), add a bukkitrunnable?

and display particles there?

[paper viper]

what hell does conds mean

[quaint mantle]

conditions

[paper viper]

Oh

[quaint mantle]

if the entity.. is...

etc.

monster, certain scoreboard tags, etc.

[paper viper]

I mean are there any conditions you are checking?

[quaint mantle]

to see if it has scoreboard tags

specifically, "UFO", and "CUSTOM"

"UFO" for the type of entity it is (a custom one)

and "CUSTOM" because,, its custom

[eternal night]

imagine using scoreboard tags smh

[paper viper]

yeah

[quaint mantle]

i mean

[paper viper]

PDC

[quaint mantle]

doesnt that take memory though

as does scoreboard tags

but doesnt that take like, a lot of memory

[eternal night]

its a map vs list

[quaint mantle]

Entity#getScoreboardTags().contains("") ??

[eternal night]

Yea scoreboard tags is a set

and pdc is stored in a map

[quaint mantle]

i prefer the scoreboard tags, personally

[unkempt peak]

PDCs are superior in every way

[eternal night]

I mean, scoreboard tags literally use a hash set that is just a hash map anyway

so memory wise the exact same as pdc

just obviously different things you store

[quaint mantle]

yeah

so as back to the while statement

that is correct?

[eternal night]

while statement is a pretty useless solution for this

[quaint mantle]

check for entity, create while(), bukkitrunnable?

[eternal night]

a simple ticking timer

should be enough no ?

[quaint mantle]

do tell

ticking timer, like a task

[eternal night]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/scheduler/BukkitScheduler.html#runTaskTimer(org.bukkit.plugin.Plugin,java.util.function.Consumer,long,long)

[quaint mantle]

im not sure i really want a scheduler that gets every entity, and compares

[eternal night]

well the async version of this is submitted to a thread pool anyway

[quaint mantle]

ah

[eternal night]

not much difference to just spawning a new thread yourself and while looping

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/scheduler/BukkitScheduler.html#runTaskTimerAsynchronously(org.bukkit.plugin.Plugin,java.util.function.Consumer,long,long)

question obviously also is, does a thread/timer per entity actually make sense

[quaint mantle]

true

[wary harness]

hey man

how are u doing

I know u smart so got qustion for you xd

if I click on diamond on left it will add one diamond ore to enchanted one

so doop all

nbt data

so if soem one has key it could abouse it

by turning regular diamond block to one with nbt

any way to prevent that

[shadow gazelle]

Would getItemInMainHand().equals(ItemStack) check if there is also the same amount of the held item?

[quaint mantle]

yes

isSimilar ignores amount

[shadow gazelle]

Oh

Thanks

Also, will remove/removeItem remove every instance of that ItemStack?

I only want to remove one

[quaint mantle]

hi imagine

remove will, removeItem removes the amount of the item

[quaint mantle]

hallo

actually correction

#remove removes all of the matching amount

removeItem removes the amount of the item

you can be lazy and set the amount of a copy to like 63936

then use removeItem, or loop and do it yourself

i would do the second

[twin venture]

iam getting this error

its been 3 hours .. iam trying to fix i did everything i can

[shadow gazelle]

As in removeItem since I only want to remove one of the item?

The ItemStack is already set to one if that changes anything

[quaint mantle]

inv.removeItem(item); // Remove as much as possible with the item's amount
inv.remove(item); // Amount-sensitive remove

how do i set the player's impostor status to true

im jk

im wonderingggg a few things actually i need to think of them

Ask away

ikr lmaooo ?ask

ok so

how should i get entities, fairly lag-free

i should just add them to a map, yes?

[untold rover]

Hey I am a bit confused, so sending Packet through a Socket using ObjectOutputStreams works fine, but when sending a Packet when a Player connects causes this:

Hey everyone, I'm running into a outofbounds exception for an item that pulls up a furnace interface. The strange thing is that everything works but it spams console with an exception as long as a player is looking at the menu. Can I just suppress the warning with @SuppressWarnings("IndexOutOfBoundsException") or will that not work?

[quaint mantle]

listen to the error

it wouldnt do it for no reason

[uneven dock]

Yeah that's my instinct too. But I've gone through all the lines that the error marks and I can't find the error. The strange thing is that it works exactly as expeceted other than the exception spam in console

[shadow tide]

does any1 know why nothing happens when I right click with this item? https://paste.md-5.net/fefagayagu.java

also it might help so my main https://paste.md-5.net/nocitavoqa.java

[shadow gazelle]

private final ItemStack wand;

[shadow tide]

yes

[quaint mantle]

^ use the variable instead of calling a getter

[shadow tide]

k

[quaint mantle]

show the adminwand command class

[shadow tide]

giving it works but ok

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

[quaint mantle]

    AdminWand adminWandItem = new AdminWand();
    @SuppressWarnings("unused")
    private final AdminWand adminWand;

what is this

🤨

[shadow tide]

wdym

[quaint mantle]

you're creating two for no reason

[shadow tide]

they are different

[quaint mantle]

no they arent

they're the exact same, thats why nothing happens when you only register one

[shadow tide]

k

[quaint mantle]

AdminWand adminWandItem = new AdminWand(); // command class

delete this

that suppresswarnings is actually telling you whats wrong

listen to the errors dont ignore them

[shadow tide]

umm, even without this java AdminWand adminWandItem = new AdminWand(); it still shows the warning lol

[quaint mantle]

and i bet there's errors

[shadow tide]

wait nvm

lol

yeah

[quaint mantle]

listen to me

create item

give item to class 1
give item to class 2

you're doing

create item

give item to class 1, even though its useless and wont be registered as a listener

also look at this

https://github.com/ImajinDevon/SpigotCamp/blob/master/ItemPDC.md better secure your item

[shadow tide]

sorry, I get it now

[quaint mantle]

np

[shadow tide]

cool

but we still haven't answered my question

[shadow tide]

wait this

thats the answer

lol

[shadow gazelle]

What was the enchantment that made items have the enchanted glint but show no enchantment in the lore?

[waxen plinth]

There isn't one by default

[quaint mantle]

you can assign an empty nbt tag or just give it unbreaking 1 and set the itemflags to HIDE_ENCHANTS

[waxen plinth]

The unbreaking trick only works if you don't want any other enchantments to show

[quaint mantle]

ye

[waxen plinth]

And if you want it to have unbreaking 🤔

Luck of the sea

[shadow tide]

u can use luck

[waxen plinth]

Give it luck of the sea

Yeah lol

[shadow tide]

its just called luck

luck of the sea is an effect

[quaint mantle]

@shadow tide tip

instead of

        List<String> lore = new ArrayList<>();
        lore.add("A very, very powerful weapon.");
        meta.setLore(lore);

use

meta.setLore(Collections.singletonList("A very, very powerful weapon."));

[shadow gazelle]

That should only add the glint?

[waxen plinth]

No

But you can add the HIDE_ENCHANTMENTS item flag

[shadow gazelle]

Okay

[shadow tide]

I use mine bc I understand it, if you want to explain that to me I will happily use it

[waxen plinth]

List.of?

[quaint mantle]

immutable

[waxen plinth]

Why would it need to be mutable

[quaint mantle]

Idk

[paper viper]

List.of is so much better

lol

[shadow tide]

?

[waxen plinth]

meta.setLore(List.of("A very, very powerful weapon."));

[shadow tide]

k

[waxen plinth]

List.of("whatever"); creates a new list containing just one string "whatever"

[ivory sleet]

Wat

[quaint mantle]

still gonna use Collections.singletonList myself

[waxen plinth]

Why

You could always do...

[ivory sleet]

Collections::singletonList is also immutable

[quaint mantle]

Oh ye

so it doesnt matter

[waxen plinth]

new ArrayList<String>() {{add("A very, very powerful weapon.")}}```

[quaint mantle]

that is so unbearably ugly

[waxen plinth]

lmao

[ivory sleet]

Yeah imagine tho wouldn’t be surprised if List::of might just delegate to Collections::singletonList

[waxen plinth]

Vice versa?

[ivory sleet]

No?

[quaint mantle]

I think it would be singletonList -> list.of

[waxen plinth]

Nope

[proud basin]

This is how you get the center of a screen right sr.getScaledWidth() - (width / 2)

[waxen plinth]

singletonList actually is its own thing

And it instantiates a class called SingletonList

An internal one

[ivory sleet]

^

[quaint mantle]

but why

[waxen plinth]

I don't get the point

It's been around since java 1.3

[quaint mantle]

i mean tf would it even do 😂

[waxen plinth]

So maybe it's still there just for backwards compatibility

[quaint mantle]

deprecate it !

[waxen plinth]

lol

[paper viper]

wtf is that formatting

[ivory sleet]

Only thing that drives me nuts with these private internal implementations is that it breaks liskov substitution principle.

[paper viper]

lol

[waxen plinth]

Decompiled

[waxen plinth]

Immutable list just throws UOE on add

[ivory sleet]

Yeah

[quaint mantle]

Java dev bad at java?

[waxen plinth]

It's decompiled

[ivory sleet]

Which breaks the List::add method promise of the interface

[quaint mantle]

who even thought of creating a singleton list class

[ivory sleet]

It’s not that bad?

[quaint mantle]

yeah i just dont know why it would exist

[shadow tide]

wait, where?

in my commands class

[quaint mantle]

you say getWand() instead of wand

in your adminwand class

[shadow tide]

nowhere except creating the getter

[ivory sleet]

Well yeah now when List::of exists it’s probably quite useless

[shadow tide]

I used ctrl + f

[quaint mantle]

and seems like ImmutableList should be its own inteface

like you said, breaks the promise of the #add method

[ivory sleet]

It is an abstract class in Guava, very nice

Yeah since a singleton list, the empty list, arrays:: aslist and a list::of all aren’t substitutable with List 😦

[shadow tide]

oh

[quaint mantle]

also extra_damage is an invalid attribute

[shadow tide]

idk why the name of an attribute exists, it doesn't do anything

[quaint mantle]

?

[shadow tide]

extra_damage is the name of the attribute, not the type

[quaint mantle]

still dont understand

are you asking why its not an enum or psf

[shadow tide]

in short terms, idk how I'm helping you, but the name of an attribute is redundant

[quaint mantle]

What.

how else are you gonna identify the attribute

[shadow tide]

u said this also extra_damage is an invalid attribute

its a name to it can't be invalid if there isn't one of the same name

[quaint mantle]

Attribute no exist

It do nothing

[shadow tide]

?

wut

[quaint mantle]

Broooooooooo

[shadow tide]

the point is it works

lets just let go of the attribute and go back to the item not doing anything when I right click

@quaint mantle

[quaint mantle]

i dont know

[shadow tide]

k, it thinks its the wrong item

i'll try to use pdcs

[quaint mantle]

😏 https://github.com/ImajinDevon/SpigotCamp/blob/master/ItemPDC.md

[hasty prawn]

too bad no one can do your camp because of unobtainable requirements...

[quaint mantle]

😔

[shadow tide]

lol

if(!pdcManager.isCustomItem(event.getItem()))``` in your camp it uses the variable `pdcManager` which you make in the `VanisherItem`  thing (please, tell me what its called), so its inaccessible. @quaint mantle

[quaint mantle]

?

private final PDCManager pdcManager;
private final ItemStack item;

public MyItem(Plugin plugin) {
    pdcManager = new PDCManager(new NamespacedKey(plugin, "myitems.item"));
    item = this.makeItem();
    pdcManager.assignCustomItem(item);
}

[shadow tide]

u didn't show these in the camp java private final PDCManager pdcManager; private final ItemStack item;

[quaint mantle]

I did

its, common sense

if im assigning a variable you'd expect it to exist right

[shadow tide]

I followed your tutorial on Item PCDs and now nothing is working, its all saying "Wrong Item"

[quaint mantle]

send code

it all works for me, i wouldnt post it if i knew it didnt work

[shadow tide]

yeah

ik

[quaint mantle]

send the PDCmanager calss

[quaint mantle]

try just doing a normal item

erase all of that custom meta stuff

add things one by one and keep testing them

[shadow tide]

I erased all the meta for my item and it still isn't working

I do have a bunch of items, if that makes a difference

they all have different keys, though

[quaint mantle]

@shadow tide your code works perfectly for me

[shadow tide]

wuut

the f*ck

when I right click it shows Wrong Item

what did you do in your plugin thats different for mine

gtg

[somber hull]

so if i wanted to make a vehicle

for the movement portion

would i be using packets?

[unkempt peak]

depends

what do you mean by vehicle

[somber hull]

Better boats

But im gonna just use an armorstand

and a custom texture head

[somber hull]

block head*

[unkempt peak]

well to add a player as a passenger to an armorstand im pretty sure you will need packets but for movement i think it should be fine if you just teleport the armorstand

[somber hull]

.addPassenger()

i was told that is a thing

[unkempt peak]

oh

yeah ive never really worked with passengers

[somber hull]

well how would i mimick realtime movement

[unkempt peak]

i would avoid packets if you don't need them

[somber hull]

teleport it like 0.1 block every milisecond?

[unkempt peak]

0.1 blocks every millisecond is very fast

thats 100 blocks/second

[somber hull]

well

it was randomly chosen

but

should i teleport it like a small amount per tick?

Cause i want to mimick boat movement

Including turning

[unkempt peak]

you can get smooth movement by teleporting incrementally by tick

there is no way to update the position faster than a tick

[somber hull]

ye

[unkempt peak]

packets won't help you there

just choose a speed in blocks/s and divide it by 20 and teleport the entity that much every tick

[somber hull]

ye thanks

[unkempt peak]

a normal boat is 7 b/s so i would start there

[somber hull]

7 blocks per second?

[unkempt peak]

yeah

[somber hull]

so 7/20 every tick?

[unkempt peak]

wait hold on

[somber hull]

ye that would be 0.35 blocks per tick

[unkempt peak]

nvm yeah its 7 b/s or 0.35 block per tick

[turbid silo]

Is there a way to change the seed on a server?

Via a method or something

[somber hull]

check world

in the docs

@turbid silo

[turbid silo]

Ah cool thanks!

[turbid silo]

I see a way to get the seed, nothing to set it though

[somber hull]

Yea i dont think its possible

[turbid silo]

how does WorldCreator work? I see theres a constructor that takes a world name. Could I possibly just create a new WorldCreator and set the world name to "world"?

Then set the seed from there

[somber hull]

probably

only oine way to find out

[turbid silo]

True

But by the looks of it I dont think I can use WorldCreator to edit a current worlds settings sadly

[somber hull]

Buildtools keeps crashing when i try to update my server
