[mortal hare]

it could be that Citizens interface is splitted from the JavaPlugin instance object

and instead implemented in separate class

but not sure

[smoky finch]

If I have a block and a block facing, how do I get 3x3 adjacent blocks based on that facing? (That means west and east - north and south give the same set of blocks)

[olive lance]

Is the command in the plugin.yml?

[proven river]

yes

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

[olive lance]

Ah it’s not

[proven river]

oh

[olive lance]

There is a description but no command

[proven river]

I just realised too

lmao

[trail lintel]

I feel like I should share this as it has been a road of learning and it may help some people in the future. So item durability is handled by the base Material. If you didn't use a base material that can take damage like armor, or a tool when creating your custom item, you won't be able to damage it. This is a problem for me as I know some users are not going to want to use the resource pack, and seeing a pair of shears named "Ender Chest" just isn't right. So what I ended up doing was implementing a custom durability stat on the item with an integer value in the persistence data container. Then in the events I am interested in, I just update the lore of the item with its durability. This way the player can see durability of non-tool items when they hover over it. A little annoying it isn't displayed at a glance, but a good enough solution for me =]

I suppose if I wanted to be REALLY hardcore I could have like 20 different custom textures each with the health bar a little lower, and essentially use custom model data for each individual health tick....

that seems silly tho....

[ocean marsh]

Hey I have a question for premium plugins.
How do you put an external link to download the .jar

[vale ember]

can anyone help?? i can't figure out how to use citizens api

[thick gust]

Is there a way to spawn a barrier particle using 1.18.1 api?

[golden turret]

api?

maybe

maybe not

let me check

no

[mighty sparrow]

Should do a thread about it on the spigot website

[trail lintel]

perhaps I shall once I get the kinks worked out a bit more =]

[worldly ingot]

Particle.BLOCK_MARKER with a T data of Material.BARRIER.createBlockData()

player.spawnParticle(Particle.BLOCK_MARKER, location, 1, Material.BARRIER.createBlockData())

[cold field]

Hi guys quick question. How do I stop the spigot server from crashing when I'm debugging (Reason: Server not responding)

[visual tide]

theres mods for changing the client's timeout

iirc you cant do that in vanilla

[visual tide]

for that set the timeout to a high number in spigot.yml

[cold field]

Ty

[thick gust]

Thank you 😄

[quaint mantle]

public void chat(AsyncPlayerChatEvent e) {
        String UUID = e.getPlayer().getUniqueId().toString();
        if(UUID.equals(spaceID)) {
            Bukkit.getServer().getConsoleSender().sendMessage("§a[prefixes] [DEBUGGING] space talked lol");
            e.setCancelled(true);
            e.getPlayer().getServer().broadcastMessage("§o"+space+"§f: "+e.getMessage());
            
        }
        else if(UUID.equals(eliID)) {
            e.setCancelled(true);
            e.getPlayer().getServer().broadcastMessage("§o"+eli+"§f: "+e.getMessage());
        }
        else if(UUID.equals(cassID)) {
            e.setCancelled(true);
            e.getPlayer().getServer().broadcastMessage("§o"+cass+"§f: "+e.getMessage());
        }
        else if(UUID.equals(bsID)) {
            e.setCancelled(true);
            e.getPlayer().getServer().broadcastMessage("§o"+bs+"§f: "+e.getMessage());
        }
        else if(UUID.equals(flagID)) {
            e.setCancelled(true);
            e.getPlayer().getServer().broadcastMessage("§o"+flag+"§f: "+e.getMessage());
        }
        else {
            e.setCancelled(true);
            e.getPlayer().getServer().broadcastMessage("§o§7"+e.getPlayer().getName()+": "+e.getMessage());
        }
    }```

this doesnt work, no errors in console, chat is still default

[late sonnet]

how not work?

the check, the cancel the broadcast?

[vagrant edge]

helo, i wanna respawn a player istantly, but i'm using the mojang-remapped NMS, so i don't have the .spigot.respawn();

How can i solve?

ping me if someone can solve, thx

[quaint mantle]

?
none of it works

[late sonnet]

you can see the patch in spigot and replicate.
https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/spigot/browse/CraftBukkit-Patches/0026-Implement-respawn-API.patch#4,17,21

[late sonnet]

but you put the @EventHandler?

[quaint mantle]

im a dumbass

thanks bye

[thick gust]

Is it able to cancel the dismount for players so they keep being the passenger of an entity?

[late sonnet]

in teory yes, you can try https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/spigotmc/event/entity/EntityDismountEvent.html

[vagrant edge]

so i can solve pasting this in my code?

[late sonnet]

yea if you are using NMS then can try replicate the same method in you plugin

[vagrant edge]

thx

rn i'm not using NMS, i wanna only respawn the player

[late sonnet]

but your are using the mojang maps not?
then not sure how not have the respawn method (i dont use the mapping for know)

[vagrant edge]

yessir

[late sonnet]

but another thing... you can try make this check in respawn event

[worldly ingot]

What do you mean you're using remapped NMS so you don't have spigot().respawn()?

NMS has nothing to do with whether or not you have access to API. If you're depending on Spigot, you will have those methods lol

[late sonnet]

this.. when i read i was thinking you try use CB directly >.<

[worldly ingot]

Yeah... you're in API. You have those methods.

Unless you were doing spigot.respawn(), which won't work. spigot() is a method, not a field

[vagrant edge]

nop

[late sonnet]

and directly p.respawn() ?

[hasty prawn]

player.spigot().respawn() exists for me with 1.18.1 Mojang Maps

[vagrant edge]

not even that

[vagrant edge]

i'm in 1.171., is maybe for that?

[worldly ingot]

It's existed since like 1.8

[vagrant edge]

.... i'm using mojang-remapped

[hasty prawn]

Pretty sure it existed for me when I was still using 1.17.1 too

[fickle yacht]

i need citizens but the github wont work

[late sonnet]

you only generate the mapping in buildtools?

[vagrant edge]

https://ci.citizensnpcs.co/job/Citizens2/

[vagrant edge]

yes i built in buildtools

[hasty prawn]

How are you getting that Player object

[fickle yacht]

do i need the api heybro?

[vagrant edge]

through the event

[vagrant edge]

for using in your plugin?

[fickle yacht]

yes the github one

[thick gust]

What's the event for firework blowing up?

[thick gust]

Thanks ^^

[trail lintel]

Hey guys, so this ones probably a no but I gotta ask. Is there a way to make my custom item repairable at the anvil, and to determine what kind of material is required? Or is it completely based on the Material of the base item

[fickle yacht]

do i need the api

[hasty prawn]

Yeah, I just tried using 1.17.1 remapped and Player#spigot exists for me. What error is it giving you?

[thick gust]

Canceling the event works perfectly! Thank you so much

[hasty prawn]

You'd have to do the logic yourself by reading the anvil inventory probably

[vagrant edge]

simply it doesen't exists

[trail lintel]

I was just looking into that =] I still can't seem to find an event that fires when a player actually clicks to accept the repair. PlayerMendEvent I thought I was close, but that was for the mending enchant

[hasty prawn]

Make sure you're on the latest version & restart your IDE

[hasty prawn]

Usually it makes the text red if it doesn't exist unless your theme changed that

[vagrant edge]

nop, its not the ide / theme:

[hasty prawn]

Probably just InventoryClickEvent

Or InventoryInteractEvent, one of the two

[trail lintel]

Ohhhhh wait I think I might get it. So I need to listen for PrepareAnvilEvent. Then detect when my custom item is put in there along with the item that I want to repair with, then I need to use the Inventory attached to that event to explicitly set the output slot to the repaired item? But PrepareAnvilEvent says it fires when items are put into slots, will it fire when the output is taken back?

Oh snap another separate just inventory interact to check for them grabbing it, that may work

[late sonnet]

maybe cab try reload the POM in the IDE?

Really is strange not get the method

well apperantly your class does not extend javaplugin then

show ur code too

[urban lantern]

wait, does every class have to extend java plugin?

[tall dragon]

no

only your main class

declared as such in your plugin.yml

[urban lantern]

my main class looks like this:

package jejt.survival.LOG_test;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
public class Main extends JavaPlugin {
@Override
public void onEnable() {
this.getCommand("logit").setExecutor(new CommandKit());
}

@Override
public void onDisable() {
    
}

}

[tall dragon]

you shoulnt use the name LOG_test

dont use uppercase

and dont use _

[urban lantern]

ok, i try, thank you

[fleet imp]

whats the yml reader class for spigot

[tall dragon]

i believe you are looking for YamlConfiguration

[urban lantern]

so, i changed the name and the error slightly changed

[sudden reef]

Hello

I need help with scoreboards

Scoreboard objectives

[white thicket]

Hey, how can I play right click animation? Like when you right click grass block with shovel then it plays an animation, how can I play that animation again by sending packets?

[tender shard]

convert? you don't

[tall dragon]

@urban lantern could you send me your jar in dm, it might not be compiled right

[tender shard]

do you mean casting it?

[fleet imp]

thx

[sudden reef]

/execute store success score output saveall run save-all

How can i get the value of player "saveall" in objective "output" with the api?

[white thicket]

event.getPlayer()?

[fleet imp]

is there a tutorial for this

ive made some plugins, but they were completely autonomous. I need config for this one

[tall dragon]

i think there are plenty to find?

[white thicket]

Cast it to player

[eternal oxide]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/config-files/

[white thicket]

Player player = (Player) event.getEntity() if that is what you mean

[sudden reef]

nvm i think i got it

[thick gust]

What's the best way to identify an Inventory?

[mighty sparrow]

wdym ?

[thick gust]

Well I got multiple inventories which got similar content but different titles. I gotta code an item click for each of that inventory which got the same function. I need an id or something like that.

[white thicket]

I assume they are doing something where they need to check for a specific inventory but in an efficient way, not the usual name checking way

[young knoll]

Use the view returned from openInventory

[mighty sparrow]

A hashmap <UUID, Inventory>

mb my english bad this morning, maybe I misunderstood

[trail lintel]

hey guys, im trying to use Inventory.remove(ItemStack item), but it doesn't seem to be affecting the inventory. Do I need to do an inventory = *previous*? I'm having trouble finding the implementation of remove. Both Inventory and PlayerInventory are interfaces which extend Iterable.

[thick gust]

What does the View contains besides the title?

[young knoll]

It’s a unique identifier

[thick gust]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/InventoryView.html

Got it.

[vale ember]

you don't need inventory = previous

it's mutator method

[thick gust]

Aight I will keep use that, thanks Col!

[sudden reef]

  Scoreboard board = Bukkit.getScoreboardManager().getNewScoreboard();
  Objective obj = board.getObjective("output");
  assert obj != null;
  int num;
  Score save_all = obj.getScore("save-all");
  int num = save_all.getScore();

?

Like that right

[trail lintel]

Hmmm, it doesn't seem to be working. Let me check my logic

[white thicket]

Anyone?

[vale ember]

void remove(@NotNull
ItemStack item)
Removes all stacks in the inventory matching the given stack.
This will only match a slot if both the type and the amount of the stack match

Parameters:
item - The ItemStack to match against

maybe amounts don't match?

[trail lintel]

Ohhh I think you may be right

[vale ember]

you may use remove (Material)

[fleet imp]

i found one at spigotmc but its confusing

[tall dragon]

There are some on yt as well i think, they might be easier to understand

[trail lintel]

@vale ember it was a logic issue 😉 I was comparing player inv to ender chest inv from a previous method

[fleet imp]

oh yea. yt has everything

[thick gust]

@young knoll Why does an inventory have many Viewers? On the inventoryclickevent I got the option to use event.getView() but on the Inventory i can only use .getViewers() 🤔

[young knoll]

Yes because multiple players can view an inventory

[mighty sparrow]

example a chest

your friends can take the content of the chest while you have it open

same concept of the inventory here

[thick gust]

Yeah but how do I get the inventoryholder of the viewers?

[royal vale]

How to get craftbukkit and bukkit as maven dependencies for 1.18?

[thick gust]

Do I have to iterate through the viewers and check the uuid @mighty sparrow

[lost matrix]

Run BuildTools on your machine. It installs those dependencies in your local maven repo.

Wait

For 1.18

[royal vale]

Yea

[eternal oxide]

Don't They are a part of Spigot

[royal vale]

I need them for NMS

Like import net.minecraft.server.level.ChunkProviderServer;

[eternal oxide]

Spigot-api includes Bukkit, Spigot includes CraftBukkit

nms is neither Bukkit nor CraftBukkit

read the post about 1.18 nms and special source in #announcements

[lost matrix]

Read the nms section of this post:
https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/9-years-of-spigotmc-spigot-bungeecord-1-18-1-18-1-release.534760/

[gleaming grove]

for NMS you need to attach spigot.jar(server) as a dependency to your project

[lost matrix]

He doesnt need to do that. Its a hacky solution.
Using mvn install:install-file is possible but not advised.

[gleaming grove]

i guess any use of NMS is hacky

[lost matrix]

Meh sure

[gleaming grove]

hmm but why is that hacky, using NMS is like modding vanilia server, so we could assume that all minecraft mods for client are hacks

[lost matrix]

Just using NMS is not modding the server. It doesnt change any of the source code.
Its basically the same as using Spigot only that you dont have a fixed API layer between you and
the server.

[thick gust]

Does some1 know a way to get an itemstack displayname without the chatcolors?

[quaint mantle]

ChatColor.stripColors or smrh

[lost matrix]

You can strip the formatting of any String using ChatColor#strip() or something

[young knoll]

stripColors

[fleet imp]

i have a yml that i created and set to compile with the jar. How do I generate that file if the yml isn't already there

[lost matrix]

Spigot has a utility method for that. JavaPlugin#saveResource(String)

[fleet imp]

oh, thx

[fleet imp]

#?

[lost matrix]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/plugin/Plugin.html#saveResource(java.lang.String,boolean)

Its an instance method of JavaPlugin.
Where do you have access to an instance of your JavaPlugin class? -> in your onEnable() method
This means that you could call saveResource() in this context:

  @Override
  public void onEnable() {
    boolean replaceExisting = false;
    this.saveResource("cool-config.yml", replaceExisting);
  }

The 'this' keyword is optional here. It just emphasises that you are referring to a method of the instance you are currently in.

@fleet imp ^

[royal vale]

net.minecraft.world.entity.EntityInsentient doesn't exist, is there a replacement for this?

[tardy delta]

if i use an Player object for a player who is currently not on the server
does calling methods like .setHealth affects the player or not? because i donno where player data is saved

[lost matrix]

Depends on what mappings you are using

[tardy delta]

maybe some operations affect files while others need an active player

sound stupid but i'm just wondering

its also stupid tbh

[lost matrix]

It does not. You should never reference a Player object for offline players.

[tardy delta]

right

still i see plugins doing it, i know its bad practice but yea

[royal vale]

What would it normally be? I'm using remapped-mojang

[fleet imp]

so, will this get the yml in the data folder or saved in the jar

[tardy delta]

yes

[lost matrix]

Best practice:
Only use Player objects in volatile scopes. Never have Player fields unless the encapsulating Object also only exists in volatile scopes.

[young knoll]

WeakReference

[fleet imp]

@lost matrix

[tardy delta]

what's volatile again?

[eternal oxide]

a weak reference

[lost matrix]

It will save whatever was in your resources path to the current plugin folder (if it exists)

[mighty sparrow]

a value that will be changed by mulltiple thread

no

?

[hexed hatch]

is running a Set#contains operation to check if a block is a certain material on every player interact event a good idea?

[fleet imp]

...how do i set a resources dir path

[tardy delta]

ah thats on class level

[hexed hatch]

or is there something better for this

[quaint mantle]

why not

[lost matrix]

What i meant is not the volatile keyword.
Volatile in the sense of fugitive

[quaint mantle]

EnumSet is your friend

[young knoll]

Ehh

I may advise against that

[tardy delta]

no idea what your saying lets translate it

[quaint mantle]

Although material shouldnt be enum at all

[young knoll]

It won't be soon™️

[tardy delta]

ah i understand

[vale ember]

why?

[young knoll]

Because it is big and ugly

[hexed hatch]

Advise against using Set#contains on player interact, or were you talking to someone else?

[royal vale]

@lost matrix I think it's Mob

[vale ember]

and how it should be?

[lost matrix]

Yes. Its really fast and even if you would check 50 HashSets every time someone interacts with a Block you wouldnt notice it in the timings.

[young knoll]

ADvise against an enumset for material

[hexed hatch]

ahh

[lost matrix]

Because of the upcoming changes?

[young knoll]

Yes

[quaint mantle]

Plus minecraft becomes data driven, there's a possibility of custom materials in future

[young knoll]

MD said it will probably be fine, but

He has also said "To reduce the risk of breakage, please consider avoiding the use of switch statements and EnumSet over enums which implement 'Keyed'."

[lost matrix]

Pretty sure spigot will be forced to handle Material as an enum for at least another decade as players hold on old versions because of
selectOneOf("performance", "combat-system")

[quaint mantle]

fuck legacy support smh

[young knoll]

Nah MD plans to change it but also make it binary compatible

How? Idk

[lost matrix]

🤔

[fleet imp]

how do i set the resource path

[lost matrix]

If you dont use maven then just throw your yml file into your java project (src folder)
Thats what i meant by "resources path". Its just a file that was thrown into your jar.

[tender shard]

quick question: is 16 chars still the max length name for player names?

I mean the "official" limit to get an account, not whether I can avoid it serverside or sth

[quaint mantle]

yes

[lost matrix]

From Mojangs side: Yes

[tender shard]

thx

that's very handy in my case lol

[lost matrix]

  public boolean isValidMinecraftName(String name) {
    return name.matches("^\\w{3,16}$");
  }

[fleet imp]

i have the yml in my resources dir while using maven. yes i included it in the iml

[tender shard]

thx, will steal that

[lost matrix]

Then calling saveResource will just copy the yml file from your jar into your plugins main folder

[quaint mantle]

The joke "md_5 will rewrite bytecode rather than breaking compatibility" becomes true

[fleet imp]

that brings me back to this, i want it to save it to the data folder if nothing is there, otherwise, get whats in the data folder

[mellow gulch]

if you setMetadata on a shulkerbox and then break the shulker box, is the metadata accessible through the shulker box itemstack's BlockStateMeta, or is the meta from the shulkerbox block lost?

[lost matrix]

This only saves the resource to your folder if it doesnt exist already and loads it as a YamlConfiguration in either case.

    File mainFolder = this.getDataFolder();
    File customFile = new File(mainFolder, "custom.yml");
    this.saveResource("custom.yml", false);
    YamlConfiguration loaded = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(customFile);

[lost matrix]

Are you on 1.8 or why would you even think to use Metadata?

[mellow gulch]

im just in general curious about how metadata and persistent data containers both behave and im having trouble finding information about how they are implemented.

[tender shard]

I have an ItemStack PLAYER_HEAD. How can I get the BlockData for that head?

[lost matrix]

Metadata -> unknown
PDC -> will be preserved and accessible

[mellow gulch]

ok thanks

[lost matrix]

PDC is saved in the NBT String

[manic furnace]

When i create a thread in my plugin, how can i change the name? When i try it with .setName(), it doesn't change anything,

[mellow gulch]

ah i see

[tender shard]

I am pretty sure that when placing or breaking a shulkerbox block, it will NOT keep the PDC data that was on the item and vice cersa

[lost matrix]

You would have to manually transfer them on BlockBreakEvent and BlockPlaceEvent

[summer scroll]

How can I create a bossbar with auto-refresh value? I want to put placeholder on that

[tender shard]

yes that's how I remember too

[tender shard]

just create a scheduled task and change the text? lol

[summer scroll]

I'm guessing by setting the title every x second?

[tender shard]

yes of course

[summer scroll]

ah okay

[lost matrix]

What do you mean by changing the name of a thread?

[mellow gulch]

what is the best way to transfer? cancel the drop and spawn the itemstack manually?

[lost matrix]

BlockDropItemEvent and BlockPlaceEvent because in those you have access to both the ItemStack and the BlockState

[quaint mantle]

wha.. You know it is not just plain strings, right?

[tender shard]

use ItemSpawnEvent and use the consumer

[quaint mantle]

It has efficient compression and such

[manic furnace]

Its something like Craft Scheduler Thread - 22

[manic furnace]

At defautl

[summer scroll]

is it better to use one scheduler for every player or scheduler every player?

[manic furnace]

My code

Save saveFiles = new Save();
saveFiles.setName("TheName");
saveFiles.start();

[lost matrix]

Sure i just always use Strings as my primitive and throw json in there...
Its a binary format you are right.

[tender shard]

I'd use one scheduler for all players

[summer scroll]

okay thanks

[quaint mantle]

ah, i'm the opposite; always using byte[] or nested persistent data containers 😄

[lost matrix]

You need to use the the TileState org.bukkit.block.Skull
Then you can transfer the owner form your org.bukkit.inventory.meta.SkullMeta onto your BlockState

[tender shard]

I wasn't the one who asked the question 🙂

[lost matrix]

Wait...

I have an ItemStack PLAYER_HEAD. How can I get the BlockData for that head?

[tender shard]

ooh

sorry

I totaly misread your answer

[lost matrix]

XD

[tender shard]

but I don't have a TileState right? I only have an ItemStack

I do NOT want to place the head, I just need the blockdata that would be created when it would be placed

currently checking whether this works

            return Material.PLAYER_HEAD.createBlockData(blockData -> {
                ((Skull)blockData).setOwningPlayer(getOfflinePlayer(string));
            });

however that won't work for base64 textures :/

[mortal hare]

quick question

[quaint mantle]

Ha! You dont have player profile api on spigot!

[mortal hare]

if use default:

[lost matrix]

    BlockData groundData = Bukkit.createBlockData(Material.PLAYER_HEAD);
    BlockData wallData = Bukkit.createBlockData(Material.PLAYER_WALL_HEAD);

[mortal hare]

do i need break before default: case to stop the execution

[tender shard]

but I have in authlib, so?

[quaint mantle]

You still cant set it for skulls

[lost matrix]

Skull is a TileState. You cant cast the BlockData to a TileState.

[quaint mantle]

If you're on j16+ use enhanced switch

[tender shard]

😦

[tender shard]

of course? Been doing that since 1.13 in angelchest

[mortal hare]

i used it but i need different execution mode

i need breaks

since i dont want pyramid of hell

im refactoring big chunk of code

thus why i need break

that way i can execute the same block of code for two different clauses without copy pasting

for each one of them

[quaint mantle]

case case1, case2 -> {}?

[mortal hare]

both cases have different code in them too

[lost matrix]

Then i have a recommendation:
Dont use switch statements at all 😄

Or if-else blocks

[young knoll]

This is why the material enum is cursed

[mortal hare]

im just askin one simple question

does default: flow in

without break

from other cases

case BLABLA:
default: {
  System.out.println("Others and blabla executed it");
}

can i do something like this

will it flow in

[lost matrix]

Yes. Always break after a statement.

[mortal hare]

so default: is not an exception

i can expect the same results as using simple case x:

for this particular situation

[wide coyote]

does the itemspawnevent triggers when a player drops an item

i dont think it will trigger but just to be sure

[golden turret]

heloo whats the probvlem here

[lost matrix]

I dont think so

[mortal hare]

eh fuck it

i found out the answer for myself

[lost matrix]

#help-development message
...

[wide coyote]

use ternary operators

[mortal hare]

for fuck sake

i dont need

[lost matrix]

XDDD

[mortal hare]

anything

[wide coyote]

ah

[mortal hare]

thats a simple example

[terse raven]

how do i create a world without making a folder for it

[wide coyote]

ye ye sorry

didnt read the code

lol

[tender shard]

but can I achieve that without placing the skull? I don't find a way to get a Skull from an ItemStack

[wide coyote]

i dont think it is possible, at least with the api

[tender shard]

well where else would you save it if not in a folder?

[terse raven]

i want to make a virtual world

to interact with

the world shouldnt be saved at all

[tender shard]

Bukkit.getWorld("world").setAutoSave(false);

can't you just use this?

[fleet imp]

I made this funny line of code and it doesn't like the saveResource:

if(!(Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("MineCord").getDataFolder().exists())) {
      plugin.getResource("config.yml").saveResource(Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("MineCord").getDataFolder());
}

[terse raven]

but it would still create a folder, right?

[tender shard]

erm what the heck are you trying to do

[terse raven]

just not safe the changes

[tender shard]

yes, but i don't think a folder causes problems, you can easily delete it afterwards

[modern sluice]

what is an api and how does it work the definition in java termonology is confusing

[fleet imp]

if data folder doesn't exist => create data folder and config file

[terse raven]

yea it kinda does, so i would like to have an option that doesnt create a folder

[quaint mantle]

there's no api in java terminology, overall api is application programming interface

a way to interact with a program via code

[lost matrix]

  private static final Map<Character, Consumer<String>> someStuff = new HashMap<>() {{
    put('x', SandboxCore::doX);
    put('y', SandboxCore::doY);
  }};

  private static void doX(String value) {
    System.out.println("Im doing X: " + value);
  }

  private static void doY(String value) {
    System.out.println("Im doing Y: " + value);
  }

  private static void doSomethingElse(String value) {
    System.out.println("Something else happened: " + value);
  }

  private static void apply(char c) {
    someStuff.getOrDefault(c, SandboxCore::doSomethingElse).accept(String.valueOf(c));
  }

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    char x = 'x';
    char y = 'y';
    char z = 'z';
    apply(x);
    apply(y);
    apply(z);
  }

Outputs

Im doing X: x
Im doing Y: y
Something else happened: z

HashMaps scale O(1) while switch case scales O(n)
I always prevent switch statements and chained if statements wherever possible.

[quaint mantle]

switches are O(n)?

i thought that their advantage over if-else is O(1)

[lost matrix]

I never checked to be honest... i just assumed it as primitves dont have hash values...

huh

[quaint mantle]

umm FastUtil primitive maps exist for a reason

[lost matrix]

Yes looks like runtime complexity of switch-case is O(n)

[young knoll]

You might say

The switch is On

[lost matrix]

Its a bit weird because they have a fixed size

but still

Maybe the objects have abysmal equals implementations XD

[tender shard]

just do saveDefaultConfig()

[lost matrix]

but

the model is weird

x-ray mode poggers

[lost matrix]

Texture is not accessible

Also the model looks scuffed

[tender shard]

looks a bit like my bf

[mighty sparrow]

aaahahaha

how do I make it accessible then lol @lost matrix

for the texture on the model I know

but

on the grass block

avoid that

[lost matrix]

something something have a texture in your texture folder and refer to that texture in your model.json

[calm star]

to get an actionbar, should i use the api or sender.spigot().sendMessage(ChatMessageType.ACTION_BAR, new TextComponent(""));

[lost matrix]

sure why not. If it isnt deprecated then go for it

what the...

Player#sendActionBar

[calm star]

wdym

im not using api

[lost matrix]

thats a paper method iirc

[young knoll]

It is

[lost matrix]

huh?

[noble lantern]

99% sure that spigot also has those methods to send action and titles to players?

[young knoll]

No

[quaint mantle]

no

[lost matrix]

Player.Spigot has

[young knoll]

This is the spigot method

[calm star]

it fdoesnt work tho

Cannot resolve symbol 'fromLegacyText'

[eternal oxide]

wrong TextComponent import

[calm star]

no

How to get coordinates of a player

[mighty sparrow]

Thanks Coll

[hexed hatch]

the textures are missing because they aren't pathed in the resource pack correctly

and the xray effect is due to cullfacing since you're using a solid block and not occupying space otherwise occupied with a full block

[mighty sparrow]

no this problem I know I just put none, im not at the modeling phase yet

[stable ice]

bump

[mighty sparrow]

theres no way to fix this

?

[manic furnace]

How can i use ansi-colercodes in my program? When i simply hang it behind the string and executeit in Powershell, it doesn't change but basically prints the color-code out too!

[hexed hatch]

not practically

my advice to you is to use the bottom slab variant

do something like this

[mighty sparrow]

trueeeeee

makes total sense

because the half we see it

[hexed hatch]

but even then, understand that the model cannot be rotated

so it would always be facing the same way

but you could make it face random directions

[quaint mantle]

you are doing your model in blockbench, right?

[hexed hatch]

He is

there might be a way to fix the cullfacing, but it's not something I'm really familiar with

but I still would advise making it the half slab instead since the hitbox will be less bizarre for such a small object

[native gale]

Please someone help, I wanna change something about ore distribution, but I don't understand how to make my own worldgen which changes only that and keeps the rest of 1.18 generation as it is

Are there any tutorials or something else I can read about that?

[olive lance]

https://bukkit.org/threads/tutorial-how-to-customize-the-behaviour-of-a-mob-or-entity.54547/ Is this still the best method for achieving something like this?

Im sure there is some API methods now

[tender shard]

erm what's the name for consumers without any arguments again?

like I wanna pass a void function with no parameters as parameter into another function

I need something like this:

public class MyClass {
  private Consumer consumer;

  public MyClass(Consumer consumer) {
    this.consumer = consumer;
  }
}

and then do something like this

MyClass thing = new MyClass(() -> {
  // do stuff
});

am I stupid or is that just a runnable?

[quaint mantle]

Just a runnable

[tender shard]

thx

I had a stupid moment

[quaint mantle]

On paper, there's mob goal api

[tender shard]

Looks perfect. That will DEFINITELY compile and run fine without problems

[young knoll]

The red means it's working

[opal juniper]

red = running

imagine being red/green colorblind

[sterile token]

A question if you have a running a jar on the JVM and its obfudcated you can get it source code vía ASM (assamble) library right?

[tender shard]

you will always only get the "obfuscated" byte code

[quaint mantle]

umm

[sterile token]

Ahh ok

[tender shard]

there's some deobfuscated for some obfuscators

although they never truly restore the original code

[sterile token]

Yes I know

But i dont know why no one recommend obfuscation when some jar have never been de obfudcated up to know

[tender shard]

I use allatori on all my paid plugins^^

even on my library in free plugins to make it a bit smaller and faster, though with different settings of course

[sterile token]

Thanks for recomendación

[tender shard]

but allatori is 290$

[sterile token]

At its paíd?

[tender shard]

yes

there's a demo version of it though

[sterile token]

I thought I seen it public on github

[quaint mantle]

Smh just dont obfuscate your plugins

[tender shard]

you must not use it for commercal stuff though

[quaint mantle]

Thst doesnt really help

[tender shard]

it does help. never seen any leaks since I got allatori

[sterile token]

I know it doesnt help but what about for selling thinks

👀

[tender shard]

of course people could deobfuscate it, but they simply don't take the time and leak another plugin instead lol

[gleaming grove]

hi i'm currently working on my GUI, so i displayed all Materials with it. However some Material are not displayed because of lack of ItemMeta or something. How what condition use to get only Material that can be display in Inventory?

[quaint mantle]

Same. If people want to crack your plugin, they will

[young knoll]

check isItem

[tender shard]

yes, but until now people just didn't after I started using allatori

[young knoll]

Anything with isItem == false should not be in an inventory

[golden turret]

i forgot an english word. the pronunciation is something like "cooldown". help!

[quaint mantle]

What

[sterile token]

Im really stress btw. I have been looking for a java socket framework. And people only recommend Netty and Apache Mina. When they are too big for building simply things

[gleaming grove]

meh does not work :,

[tender shard]

ugh how can you code with such a background lol

what's the item that's not showing?

[young knoll]

Looks like air

[gleaming grove]

i guess air

[tender shard]

yeah true

[young knoll]

You can exclude that too with isAir

[gleaming grove]

but there are still 44 pages

so it does not affect any Material

[golden turret]

maybe

[gleaming grove]

pagination is done corretly

[tender shard]

anyone got a quick regex for me to check whether a string is 32 numbers? ^^

[golden turret]

your page calc is not correct?

[sterile token]

Simply dont let put air item on your inv

[golden turret]

.+{} or something

[tender shard]

\d is digits

but what is "exactly 32"? 😄

[gleaming grove]

i have idea

maybe i firstly filter the list and then do the button mapping

[young knoll]

\d{32}

[golden turret]

(.+){32}

[tender shard]

thanks!

[golden turret]

define pushing

[granite burrow]

How can I disable players colliding with each other, I tried to do this when they joined:

But it didnt work

[tender shard]

player.spigot().setCollidesWithEntities(false)

What that

[tender shard]

I think

[sterile token]

Collides?

[mighty sparrow]

What is inventory extraContents ?

[tender shard]

left hand

[golden turret]

deprecated

[mighty sparrow]

Alright thx

[tender shard]

whats deprecated?

[golden turret]

the method you sent

[tender shard]

lemme check

[sterile token]

If you are using eclipse and tells you deprecsted its because its a yeat

[tender shard]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/LivingEntity.html#setCollidable(boolean)

yeah it's moved to LivingEntity

Mfnalex

So if I want to modify a spigot let say I should use Spigot Build Tools?

[olive lance]

i just tested that allatori demo and idek what my own plugin does now

[tender shard]

you want your custom spigot fork?

[tender shard]

does it work though?

I can help you with allatori if you like

[granite burrow]

im on 1.18 btw

[olive lance]

idk havent tested it i dont have a server setup rn

[tender shard]

important: you must not rename your main class

[olive lance]

but its some weird stuff it did

[tender shard]

also not all methods you are overriding

[olive lance]

Like it has to be called Main?

[sterile token]

Yes because i will tríed to implemente a server-client and viceversa, messaging system without players

[opal juniper]

?main

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/why-you-shouldnt-name-your-main-plugin-class-main.493289/

[tender shard]

no, you just must not rename it

[opal juniper]

u can rename it?

[tender shard]

here's an example allatori config: https://paste.jeff-media.com/?e20564f898931b16#7xXbbTsj71fcUqc3McBKpCMkf3aLH8GbkLkJrMmsxDz3

[olive lance]

When would i have renamed it i guess is what im saying

[tender shard]

when using allatori of course lol

[quasi patrol]

event.getHook().setHookedEntity(null); isn't working for me, and there is no errors. .-.

[sterile token]

mfnalex can I then dm u?

[olive lance]

https://paste.md-5.net/omagataxab.js This what it did to my onEnable almost looks like it wouldnt work

[tender shard]

sure

[sterile token]

I wanna talk to you about obfuscator if you have no problems

[olive lance]

It just put a random 'this;' in

[tender shard]

sure, feel free to dm

[olive lance]

what does that even do lmao

[tender shard]

black magic

[olive lance]

and it used to just be getCommand now its "\027\030\022\r\030\026\037".getCommand

whatever that is

[tender shard]

string obfuscation

[olive lance]

No idea how that works

cause there was no string there before?

[tender shard]

don't worry about what it does

it's very complicated

^^

it can even rename your variables to use keywords

[olive lance]

actually hold up

[tender shard]

e.g.

private static final int if = 3;

[olive lance]

woah

[tender shard]

also for methods

public static void void(String else) {
  ...
}```

[olive lance]

tell me how this getCommand("faction").setExecutor(new FCommand(this)); becomes this "\027\030\022\r\030\026\037".getCommand(NotInFaction.ALLATORIxDEMO((String)this)).setExecutor(new FCommand(this)); saveDefaultConfig();

NotInFaction is an expection i made that appears no where in that class lol

[tender shard]

it moves certain stuff to other classes

[olive lance]

oh ok

[tender shard]

the ALLATORIxDEMO method is probably the string decryptoin method

thats so weird cause this is the entire expection class is just comments https://paste.md-5.net/ebasaqawug.java

Thanks @tender shard

[proud basin]

To make a core would you need to make a separate plugin for bungee so it can work with another plugin from another server?

[gleaming grove]

Thank you it works

[tender shard]

it's byte code. your decompiler wasnt able to decompile it so it just shows the byte code

sorry wrong reply

@olive lance

^

[mighty sparrow]

np

[olive lance]

ohh ok

[tender shard]

I suggest ReCaf, it's one of the best decompiler GUIs imho

[olive lance]

bet

[tender shard]

I don't think you're allowed to share CMI's byte code 😛

[olive lance]

Lmao

it actually ended up making my jar file bigger. still a chance it runs better?

[tough field]

is it?

i dont think so

[tender shard]

sure, depends on your settings

here's settings to just make it smaller and faster:

[young knoll]

Leaking bytecode is still leaking

[olive lance]

Those would be helpful

[tender shard]

https://paste.jeff-media.com/?41e65ec4dcf10636#GwvMucHEgMfUgHno4UAb71NBE7oSmfFDu5gcqk9YthQc

[olive lance]

Cause im open source just wanna make it fast as possible

[tender shard]

well it won't change much tbh

but it can't hurt either

[olive lance]

yea

[young knoll]

Anyone here good with streams?

[olive lance]

LFG

saved a kb

[young knoll]

I'm looking to check if a list of an abstract class contains at least 1 of a certain subclass, using a stream

[olive lance]

It still did that string encryption thing tho with the exception class

[tender shard]

it removed almost 100kb from my library lol

[olive lance]

yea my plugin is only 55kb right now so i wasnt expecting much

[tender shard]

then you didnt use my config I sent? it has string-encryption set to disable

[olive lance]

hm

Let me see

it did make it a different size

[gleaming grove]

Somebody know if we have class A with 300 line of code, and class B 150 code lines that inherits class C with 150 code lines.
After compilation to .class files both classes A and B will have 300 lines of code inside?

[olive lance]

Yeah it definitely used it and had the string encryption set to disable. maybe thats not considered that? idk why it wouldnt tho

hold up lemme try 1 thing

restart my decompiler

[mighty sparrow]

I cast Inventory to PlayerInventory ? @tender shard

[olive lance]

Ok it did work

[tender shard]

If you know it's a playerinventory, yes

[mighty sparrow]

alright

[proud basin]

How do yall name your projects if its two words do you do TestWater or Test Water

[tender shard]

ugh

never spaces

btw how would you name this method:

    public static UUID getUuidFromString(final @NonNull String string) {
        if(string.length()==36) return UUID.fromString(string);
        if(string.length()==32) return fromStringWithoutDashes(string);
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("Not a valid UUID.");
    }

getUuidFromString
or
getUUIDFromString
?

[proud basin]

UUID

[sullen marlin]

UUID is more correct, even if ugly sometimes

but name it whatever you want tbh

[tender shard]

yeah I know it's just for my OCD

aight I'll go for UUID

sometimes intellij is a bit stupid

it doesnt even suggest to create that method lol

[proud basin]

the only reason why you would do UUID is because its a acronym

[tender shard]

String#replace and String#replaceAll really have misleading names

they should be called "replace" and "replaceRegex" or sth

[eternal oxide]

kinda. replaceAll will accept a non regex

[mystic sky]

well, other IDEs are even more stupid

[tender shard]

ugh

yes

visual studio is the worst

[mystic sky]

vsc isn't even a ide

[tender shard]

and eclipse's maven integration sucks

[mystic sky]

but it's fine for py + js

[tender shard]

I know a few people using VSC for java and

I really wonder

why do they make their own life so hard

[mystic sky]

i use it sometimes when my Intellij idea bugs

[tender shard]

getting IntelliJ Ultimate was the best decision I ever made

[mystic sky]

uh, i won't pay that much

[tender shard]

I got a for free

[mystic sky]

bruh

[tender shard]

somehow even law students get coding software for free at my university

[mystic sky]

My school doesn't have the E-Mail registered.

: (

[tender shard]

lmao meanwhile I can make as many email aliases as I want and get free stuff again and again XD

[proud basin]

what's the command line again to shade with maven?

[tender shard]

mvn package should run the shading plugin

[eternal oxide]

You only need an OS project and you can get it for free

[tender shard]

if you have declared it in your pom

[tender shard]

what is an OS project?

oh open source

really?

[eternal oxide]

open source

[tender shard]

how?

[sullen marlin]

whats wrong with the community edition

[tender shard]

well I got it anyway, just curious

[sullen marlin]

or netbeans :>

[tender shard]

nothing

but why not use Ultimate if you get it for free 🙂

it has some MySQL features added, I dont know what else

[tender shard]

uh

md_5 what do you use?

[mystic sky]

yep

[young knoll]

Md uses netbeans

[eternal oxide]

a profiler I belive

[mystic sky]

Im pretty sure he uses notepad

[tender shard]

yeah

probably

or emacs

that would be legendary

sometimes I force myself to use vim but emacs? that's a whole nother level

[mystic sky]

well he's a god

I got a lot of money by him

[tender shard]

yeah I can finally pay my rent too lmao

[mystic sky]

Yeah*

Like im working on a lot of big networks by that ;: )

[tender shard]

three AngelChest's per day and I got enough money for that day lol

[mystic sky]

: o Well, my most famous proyect (with md_5 project) it's my bungee fork

[tender shard]

which one?

[mystic sky]

no please god

[tender shard]

I'm still using waterfall but seems like I gotta switch to Velocity soon

[mystic sky]

I won't say it here due i will get banned?

I thing that there's some type of rule of that

[tender shard]

I read the rules 20 times, I don't think there's a rule about that 😛

[oblique wigeon]

When creating multiple config/data files, should i create a class for every one of them? or should I create instances of a class and reload/edit them by name

(im followed a codedred tutorial and was wondering how to continue further)

[tender shard]

never heard of that, I'll look it up 😄

[tender shard]

I just create one YamlConfiguration per config file

[mystic sky]

I won't spam here

[tender shard]

I think it's because paper said they'll drop bungee / waterfall

[mystic sky]

they said probly not 100%

[tender shard]

slowly remembers Heartbleed...

[oblique wigeon]

are you creating static varibles? I have a DataManager class that has reload/save/default methods, but the file names are hardcoded.... should i just make them take a parameter instead?

[tender shard]

fun fact: the Heartbleed bug was introduced into OpenSSL by a student from my town's university lmao

[mystic sky]

And if even that happens there a lot of people that will still mantaining waterfall

XD

[tender shard]

sometimes I do that, yes. Most of the time, no. I just have something like this in my main class:

@Getter private final YamlCOnfiguration itemsConfig = new YamlConfiguration();
{
  //if file doesnt exist
  saveResource(items.yml);
  
  itemsConfig.load(//items.yml file);
}

I'd already be happy if bungee API would include YamlCOnfiguration lol

[young knoll]

The API is improved constantly

Removing old things, less so

[mystic sky]

my bad* Modern proxy dependencies

[sullen marlin]

example?

you want more API but you also want less API

🤔

[mystic sky]

My bad i was going to mean the proxy imself*

Well, velocity guys doesn't need to use Firewall or even antibots to avoid this.

[tender shard]

am I the only one around here who always accidently drags that thing somewhere instead of just resizing it like I wanted to?

[mystic sky]

Also forks won't be that famous.

Well, u improved in some way the proxy applying the limit of bytes on the protocol, but are some other type of layer attacks that doesn't follow it.

[sullen marlin]

have you opened a bug report

[mystic sky]

Well i allways thinked that u just didn't want to fix it or something like that

[sullen marlin]

yes I purposely make my software as bad as possible and hate improving it

[young knoll]

Me too

[mystic sky]

XD i don't know i thing that u saw that are 400 bungee forks not because bungeecord fixes them.

[proud basin]

Where can I find this in the buildtools? https://imgur.com/a/O9mO9Yj

[mystic sky]

I didn't say that just I thought that was hard or implied a lot of changes.

[sullen marlin]

what do you mean

[tender shard]

looks like the maven repository

[proud basin]

that's because it is

[tender shard]

what exactly is your question?

where you can find the finished .jar, outside of your local repo? o0

[mystic sky]

Well, i don't thing that it's a bug but can be avoided, mostly that's why people switches to the knowed proxy.

[sullen marlin]

well open a feature request; though that wording makes me skeptical

because you see people that fork bungee, add absolute garbage that does nothing, and then claim its an improvement

[tender shard]

what "bug" are you even talking about? 😄

[sullen marlin]

without understanding what their code does or why it sucks

snake oil central

[mystic sky]

yeah but there some little % that works good.

[tender shard]

packet api when?

[young knoll]

ProtocolLib

[tender shard]

nah ProtocolLib sucks

[mystic sky]

Ill give u a question why you use waterfall instead bungeecord.

[tender shard]

it's 10 times more complicated than NMS packets

[sullen marlin]

answer the question instead?

what 'bug' ?

[mystic sky]

Well is not really a bug as i said?

[tender shard]

no idea, because I also use paper on my server. bungee would be fine too I assume

[sullen marlin]

you havent said what it is at all

[tender shard]

yeah just wondering what you are talking about at all

I only recently made up my first proxy server and just instantly used waterfall without any proper reason

[proud basin]

well im trying to update it so I can use the new buildtool

[tender shard]

huh? Just get latest BuildTools from spigotmc and then run it

?buildtools

?bt

[undone axle]

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

[proud basin]

I do have it

smh

[mystic sky]

Uh, well i thing u know that most of people won't use bungeecord or + an antibot always due the fear of getting crashed off.

[thick gust]

ProtocolLib is bad

[mystic sky]

and hard

[tender shard]

maybe explain what your problem is, then

[tender shard]

yeah I absolutely don't like it

[thick gust]

😂

[tender shard]

lol

[tacit drift]

IMO easier to use

[young knoll]

Tbf I mostly only use it for listeners

[tender shard]

I don't think so.
packet.setDoubles(...)
with NMS I just use the proper constructor^^

so I can see in my IDE directly what it needs instead of looking up everything on some website

also I can use the proper packet names instead of Packet.PLAY.OUT.WHATEVER

[tender shard]

yeah for listeners I can undersatnd that

[mystic sky]

And yeah, really hard thing to do on a proxy level give a solution to avoid "anti-bots" getting benefices by your way.
That's why velocity it's getting more famous.

[thick gust]

if(ProtocolLib.isBad()) {
  System.out.println("Change your library, otherwise your server will be detonated in 3... 2... 1...");
}

[merry sky]

https://pastebin.com/dtbtkKFF Can anyone tell me whats going wrong with these logs? My server dev is currently away and it needs fixing asap

[tender shard]

some json file is corrupted

[tender shard]

just remove the if, it'll run anyways

[thick gust]

Aight thx for your help

[tender shard]

assert ProtocolLib.isBad(); // will always be true

[quaint mantle]

K

im gonna post my issue now

because most issues rn seem solved

having some config weird things happening, i have the default config as a resource

it loaded right, and i set the config once and restarted.. and the config reloaded, and the values were displayed correctly

now, i'm trying to reload the config in-game, or on console (via-command) and it does not reload the new values... not exactly sure why either, because i dont have a reload config on my onEnable()

and like heres the config

[tender shard]

show your code to reload pls

[quaint mantle]

😭

[thick gust]

that's eclipse

[tender shard]

1. why do you save your config after loading it?

[quaint mantle]

idk i used code from an older plugin i made with a config

[thick gust]

Error 404: No IntelliJ IDE found.

[quaint mantle]

that plugin works on reload

[tender shard]

2. why don't you use the inbuilt reloadConfig() method?

[quaint mantle]

Error 404: No fucks given

[quaint mantle]

i tried that before, and it didn't work... i'll try it again assuming i did something wrong

[tender shard]

it makes no sense to save the config directly after loading it

[quaint mantle]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

im bad with configs

[tender shard]

also your file is called config.yml, you can use bukkit's javaplugin's builtin getConfig()

[quaint mantle]

this one?

[tender shard]

you only need to create your own FileConfiguration / YamlConfiguration objects if you need additional config files NOT called config.yml

[quaint mantle]

bruh my older plugin, i just fit the code from it 😭

[tender shard]

must be leftover from 2012 code then 😄

[quaint mantle]

😭

[tender shard]

I'd suggest to get rid of all your custom config code and use the builtin methods

they are made to make your life easier 🙂

[quaint mantle]

thats my only custom config method

everything else (making the config) is built in

[tender shard]

how do you access your config?

[quaint mantle]

file?

[tender shard]

by doing yourPlugin.getConfig()

[quaint mantle]

oh yeah

[tender shard]

or by using yourPlugin.fc ?

yeah but you only load the config into the fc field

[quaint mantle]

built in

BRUH

[tender shard]

yeah but the code you sent does not reload JavaPlugin's getConfig() but only your custom fc config

[quaint mantle]

reloadConfig() worked now

technology moment

tysm

will return bye <3

[tender shard]

np 😄

[mystic sky]

@sullen marlin Why you use slf4j instead log4j?

Its just a question

[sullen marlin]

I dont use either

I use java.util.log

[mystic sky]

Then it's useless?

oh

[tender shard]

yeah because log4j is so awesome lol

[mellow gulch]

is there any good way to get the shulker box item that spawned as a result of a block getting broken by a piston?
i already have a bad way of doing it, but im searching for a better option.

[mighty sparrow]

frl dog

log4j is my dude

[tender shard]

what's your bad way?

[young knoll]

BlockDropItemsEvent?

[mellow gulch]

store the location of where the block was (method of storing doesn't matter) then in ItemSpawnEvent get the spawn location and check if the locations match

[mystic sky]

yeah ignoring this 2021 XD

[mellow gulch]

docs say:
"Called if a block broken by a player drops an item"

[tender shard]

hm

good question

[thick gust]

what's the updated method for sendBlockChange?

[young knoll]

Ah by a piston

Hm

[young knoll]

sendBlockChange

[tender shard]

it still exists

[thick gust]

Yeah but it's deprecated sadly

[young knoll]

No

One of them is deprecated

[tender shard]

No it's not

[young knoll]

The other one is not

[thick gust]

Duhh

[tender shard]

Player#sendBlockChange(Location,BlockData)

player.sendBlockChange(someLocation, Bukkit.createBlockData(Material.STONE));

[thick gust]

Oh wow

[young knoll]

Isn't there also Material.X.getDefaultData or something

[tender shard]

that code looks a bit... messy 😄

[thick gust]

it is

But i had to hard code it

It's a cage with a 3x3 room with invisible barriers

I am dumb at math

So ...

[tender shard]

I understand 😄

[thick gust]

I decided to not calculate it lol

xD

[tender shard]

yeah I was an A student in school in math and a year later, I forgot everything

anyway, just use Bukkit.createBlockData(Material) 🙂

[thick gust]

Already done, sir.

isOnGround() is also deprecated ffs

[young knoll]

Only for players, because it can be spoofed

[tender shard]

LivingEntity#isOnGround

oh no

[thick gust]

So should I cast my player to a living entity?

Uh

[tender shard]

just Entity.isOnGround

((Entity)player).isOnGround()

[thick gust]

thx

[tender shard]

reason for deprecation:

This value is controlled only by the client and is therefore unreliable and vulnerable to spoofing and/or desync depending on the context/time which it is accessed

as @young knoll already said

so yeah, better use Entity#isOnGround

although it's a bit strange that the subclass declares a non-deprecated method that it overrides as deprecated lol

Quick Question

even when casting to Entity, doesn't it still call the isOnGround method from Player?

[sullen marlin]

yes

[thick gust]

Lol

Weird methods spigot weird methods 😄

[young knoll]

I just made my own method that involves subtracting a small amount from the players Y value

And checking the block there

[sullen marlin]

the method sucks, but anticheat developers are the worst

thats the only reason it exists

[tender shard]

I agree lmao

maybe another method could be added to get the actual Entity's isOnGround?

[sullen marlin]

that is the entity's isOnGround

vanilla lets the client set it for who knows why

thats why things like nofall exist

[young knoll]

Oh mojang

[tender shard]

oh okay

strange lol

[young knoll]

Movement really should be server side

[tender shard]

I still remember when I started MC, multiplayer and singleplayer had different code

then some update came and single player was just local multiplayer from then on

WOW intellij really is stupid sometimes

I removed the "player" parameter from new CustomBlock

and now intellij says "can't find block.getState()" instead of telling me to remove "player" from "new CustomBlock"

[thick gust]

is there a shortcut in intellij to comment code?

[tender shard]

sure

Ctrl+/

and Ctrl+Shift+/

[thick gust]

uh does not work for me?

[tender shard]

what keyboard?

german? US? ... ?

try the / from your numpad

[thick gust]

normal qwertz (german)

CTRL, SHIFT, 7

[tender shard]

yeah me too

use / from your numpad

it will work

Ctrl+ Numpad /

the one above the 8 ^^

[thick gust]

got it lol

I am just not used to numpad. I prefer the other numbers.

[tender shard]

yeah you could probably change it to Ctrl+Shift+7

[thick gust]

Ctrl+7 is more comfy i think

[tender shard]

but then toggle block comment would not work so youd need to set that to Ctrl+Shift+Alt+7 or sth

yeah makes sense

lol

[thick gust]

still having problems with comparing inventories.

I'm just not good in comparing stuff i guess XD

[tender shard]

inventories will be == if they are the same

if only their content is the same - you'll have to loop over them I think

yeah, Inventories are just Iterable<ItemStack>, it doesnt have their own equals method

so equals() is the same as == for inventories

[quaint mantle]

still, use == for reference and .equals for comparison for convention 😼

[tender shard]

yeah but equals in inventories is the same

[quaint mantle]

👍🏿

[tender shard]

so you need write your own method if you just wanna compare the contents 🙂

[thick gust]

I think i will develop my entire plugin once again sometime

Refactoring takes too long lol

However refactoring this was not useless because I can write my new version of it even easier now.

[waxen plinth]

Yea sometimes you just gotta scrap everything and rewrite

[thick gust]

It's annoying but a must-have if your plugin doesn't take care of name conventions, etc.

I am shocked how much my coding style has changed over years...

[waxen plinth]

Yeah

[tender shard]

yeah I do that every other year too

[waxen plinth]

I mean

I don't rewrite entire projects that are too large

I will often rip out and replace functions or classes though

[thick gust]

Think I will open twice IntelliJ and just recreate it by copy pasting and like comparing what I could do better.

I won't copy paste everything dw lol

Just some pieces

Step by step and then I improve each little part

[tender shard]

I normally refactor everything with git

[young knoll]

I have rewritten custom enchantments so many times

[tender shard]

so I can always go back

[waxen plinth]

They're kinda hard to do right

[young knoll]

I think this should be the final one

It's data driven

[thick gust]

fk how do I create a random again between 2 numbers?

wasn't it random.nextInt(high + low) + high;

Or something like that

[young knoll]

If you are using the standard random

Random.nextInt(high - low) + low

[tender shard]

package de.jeff_media.jefflib;

import lombok.experimental.UtilityClass;

/**
 * Random number related methods
 */
@UtilityClass
public class RandomUtils {

    /**
     * Returns true with a specific chance, otherwise false, with a range between 0 (always false) and 1 (always true)

     */
    public static boolean chance(final double chance) {
        return getDouble(0, 1) <= chance;
    }

    /**

        return getDouble(0, 100) <= chance;
    }

    /**

    public static double getDouble(final double min, final double max) {
        return JeffLib.getThreadLocalRandom().nextDouble(min, max);
    }

    /**

     */
    public static int getInt(final int min, final int max) {
        return JeffLib.getRandom().nextInt(max - min) + min;
    }
}

that's my RandomUtils class

[thick gust]

youh

I don't need an entire class

[tender shard]

just copy paste what you need lol

[thick gust]

This does it.

[waxen plinth]

What's it look like?

[young knoll]

Currently making some fairly big changes, but it's on my github

Here is a sample enchantment file

[waxen plinth]

Ah

So it's all done in config

[young knoll]

Yes
