Alrighty! Just booted up my drive with all my tools, I'll make quick work of this

[hushed stirrup]

Persistent Data Container?

[eternal oxide]

?pdc

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-guide-to-1-14-persistentdataholder-api.371200/

[lean gull]

is there a way to make a lot of if statements cleaner?

[eternal oxide]

switch statements and early return

[lean gull]

what's that

[eternal oxide]

it all depends on yoru if requirements.

[spiral light]

is there smth special you want to get cleaner ?

[eternal oxide]

If possible a Switch statement is much cleaner, The early return is exit out as soon as possible if you know you can

Lastly, if you are reusing the same test over and over in different places, don't, use variables

[dense heath]

Where should I send it?

Ah, actually, here

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[dense heath]

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

If you'd like, you can go ahead and reverse dump that from your terminal

[glossy venture]

List<PermissionTree> trees = getGroups()
        .stream()
        .map(PermissionGroup::getPermissions)
        .collect(Collectors.toList());
trees.sort(PermissionSorters.GROUP_TREES_BY_WEIGHT);
``` will this be extremely slow?

[dense heath]

https://tryitands.ee

[glossy venture]

it maps, collects and sorts it

[lean gull]

how do i know if my code can be laggy? im afraid of making something that will be ok when i test it but when more players will come on when i release the server, it will be laggy

[eternal oxide]

experience

[dense heath]

Benchmark your code.

[lean gull]

what's benchmark

[dense heath]

You write a program that tests how quickly it runs.

[lean gull]

idk how to do that

[quaint mantle]

How can I change a block to Air with its Location, World#setBlock wants a BlockData, whats that

[quaint mantle]

Can u add custom potion effects through Spigot?

yes

How?

To a potion item? or to an entity

Entity

[spiral light]

more players = more lagg
(if you do smth related to the players)
you can measure the time too know if it will be laggy

[quaint mantle]

Like a effect called Dappaness

[quaint mantle]

oh you mean custom custom

Yea

Well I guess you could create the effects, but idk about the status effect

dont think so

Aight

thanks for ur help

[spiral light]

i dont think the player would see it

[quaint mantle]

How can I get the player who is trying to craft an item from CraftItemEvent

[tender shard]

getWhoClicked

@quaint mantle

[quaint mantle]

OO

make sure to cast tho

[tender shard]

yeah and also check if the HumanEntity is instanceof Player. Player currently is the only known thing that implements HumanEntity, but other plugins might add some weird other implementations, and also in the future other HumanEntities could be added

Is anyone here familiar with MockBukkit?

[cold field]

Guys quick question, if I send the player to a server through the https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/bukkit-bungee-plugin-messaging-channel/#connect message. Would the player be connected even if it is a restricted server?

[tender shard]

not if they dont have the permission bungeecord.server.<servername>

[quaint mantle]

Which event is fired when players wishper

[tender shard]

wishper?

[quaint mantle]

Whisper

typo 😅

[tender shard]

wisper?

ah

[vague swallow]

you mean when he does /msg?

[tender shard]

whisper yes

[vague swallow]

or /tell?

[cold field]

Mh, do you know how I could force a connect? Custom message or does it exists already one?

[quaint mantle]

Yea

/w

[tender shard]

I'd just give the permission, connect them, remove permission

[blazing rune]

Hello can I talk here?

[quaint mantle]

#general my friend

[tender shard]

that's not a builtin command

so there is no event

[vague swallow]

I think it's the same event for all the executed commands

[quaint mantle]

I mean there is something called /tell

[blazing rune]

Anyway...

Is there a way to change player's chat prefixes

[quaint mantle]

Yes

[blazing rune]

Well

[vague swallow]

@tender shard What event gets fired if someone executes a command?

[quaint mantle]

So, what u can do is listen to the chat and then cancel that event and send a custom message

[blazing rune]

Ok how do I explain this

[quaint mantle]

no, i guess, unless you do what this guy said

[tender shard]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/player/PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent.html

[quaint mantle]

^

[tender shard]

that's a stupid idea

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/player/AsyncPlayerChatEvent.html

change the format in that event

[blazing rune]

I know that but

[quaint mantle]

oh

yea

[vague swallow]

@quaint mantle So try to use a PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent

[blazing rune]

I'm trynna make like to prefixes

1 for non-ops and for ops

[tender shard]

use the event I sent above, then do sth like
event.setFormat("[YourPrefix] %s: %s")

first %s is the name, second %s is the msg

[blazing rune]

I do this: e.setFormat(ChatColor.RED + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "ADMIN " + ChatColor.WHITE + e.getFormat());

[quaint mantle]

thank u

[tender shard]

and what's the problem?

[blazing rune]

Wait lemme get a screenshot of it

[quaint mantle]

how to check if its /tell form that event?

[tender shard]

by checking whether the string starts with "/tell "

however you have to take namespaces into account

[quaint mantle]

it doesnt have a method for that ig

[tender shard]

it could also be /minecraft:tell

[tender shard]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/player/PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent.html#getMessage() ?

[quaint mantle]

oo

sorry

[blazing rune]

Ok the server is taking its time to restart

Give it a few mins

[vague swallow]

if(Player.isOp){event.setFormat("§4§l(Admin) §f" + Player.getDisplayName + " > " + event.getMessage())}

[blazing rune]

I did that

[tender shard]

no!

use the placeholders

%s %s

[blazing rune]

@EventHandler
public void playerChat(AsyncPlayerChatEvent e) {
Player p = e.getPlayer();
e.setFormat(ChatColor.GRAY + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "MEMBER " + ChatColor.GRAY + e.getFormat());
if (p.isOp()) {
e.setFormat(ChatColor.RED + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "ADMIN " + ChatColor.WHITE + e.getFormat());
}
}

[tender shard]

it expects something that can be run through String.format

[blazing rune]

This is my code

I'm sure you can point out the problems

[tender shard]

that looks correct except that you double the format for OPs

[blazing rune]

O

[tender shard]

public void onChat(AsyncPlayerChatEvent event) {
        String prefix = "MEMBER";
        if(event.getPlayer().isOp()) {
            prefix = "ADMIN";
        }
        event.setFormat(prefix + " %s > %s");
    }

that results in
MEMBER mfnalex > my messsage
and

ADMIN someoneelse > other message```

[blazing rune]

I'll send you the screenshot

[quaint mantle]

also

[tender shard]

this is the screenshot @blazing rune sent

[quaint mantle]

use to make a nice cool box

[tender shard]

and it's exactly as I said

[blazing rune]

Yep

[blazing rune]

I don't really care about that lol

[tender shard]

You first change the format and you set the format again adding to the old format

[quaint mantle]

but we do 😦

[blazing rune]

:/

[tender shard]

^do this @blazing rune

[blazing rune]

Ok

[blazing rune]

Aight

[blazing rune]

Oh

[tender shard]

did you understand why your code duplicated the prefix?

[blazing rune]

Kinda

[vague swallow]

    public void onChat(AsyncPlayerChatEvent e) {
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        if(p.isOp()){
            e.setFormat("§4§l(Admin) §f" + p.getDisplayName() + " > " + e.getMessage());
        } else e.setFormat("§7§l(Member) §f" + p.getDisplayName() + " > " + e.getMessage());
    }

[tender shard]

well not really

the format expects a string to be used with String.format

it's not needed to manually insert the player name and message

that's what the %s placeholders are for

[vague swallow]

yeah that's just what I did when I did it some months ago

but ty

[tender shard]

also it would be way easier to simply save the prefix in a variable, then use that to change the format instead of duplicating the p.getDisplayname + " > " + e.getMessage() part 🙂

[blazing rune]

Is it better to use the chatcolor or §

[tender shard]

ChatColor

but

[vague swallow]

What you like the most

[tender shard]

if you want to make it configurable

you should use &c color codes, and run them through ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes

because it might happen that the § character will change someday

[blazing rune]

Yep know that

[tender shard]

if you want it configurable, use &c codes. If not, you can either hardcode &c codes or use ChatColor.RED

[blazing rune]

Ok

[blazing rune]

Forgot to say thanks for helping me lol

[jolly acorn]

Hey can i dm someone? Since theres a error in my console i dont know and i already deleted ranksigns plugin.

[blazing rune]

[tender shard]

no problem 🙂

[tender shard]

?ask

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

[tender shard]

also if it's about a 3rd party plugin: #help-server

Heres the logs

https://mclo.gs/L8FaKip

[tender shard]

is RankSigns your plugin?

[jolly acorn]

I already deleted it

[tender shard]

I mean - did you code that plugin?

because if not, this is the wrong channel, this channel is about coding your own plugins. if it's not your plugin, you should head to #help-server and/or contact the author of that plugin

[jolly acorn]

I didnt code it

I didnt do nothing

I just downloaded it

And troed it and it dodnt work

So k deleted it

And the author doesnt have discord

Ima check the supporr

[spiral light]

again here with 3rd party plugin help ^^ i see you dont understand it probably

[jolly acorn]

I iam in help server but the chat seems inactive

Amd again they dont have discord or any support

https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/ranksigns.3868/

See

I didnt code or anything

[tender shard]

this

channel

is for coding your plugins

[minor fox]

Are there any libraries for asynchronous chunk loading?

[tender shard]

yes

PaperLib

(when using spigot, it uses synced chunk loading though. It only uses async loading when you're on paper or a paper fork)

https://github.com/PaperMC/PaperLib

@minor fox

[minor fox]

Do you know if the latest spigot release supports previous versions?

[shrewd solstice]

how can i give a knockback effect on every entity in front of me???? 1.16.5

or damage

[tender shard]

wdym?

[minor fox]

is spigot 1.18 able to run on a 1.17 server

[frosty tinsel]

Wtf

[tender shard]

that makes no sense

if you run spigot 1.18 it's a 1.18 server

do you mean whether you can upgrade from 1.17 to 1.18?

if so: yes

[minor fox]

no the api

[tender shard]

ah okay

if you do not use api methods added in 1.18 it runs fine on 1.17

[hardy swan]

as long as the package names and method names are the same and present in runtime, it doesn't matter where those come from

[blazing rune]

Hello I have a question, how do I add permissions to players without a permission plugin?

[tender shard]

https://bukkit.fandom.com/wiki/Developing_a_permissions_plugin

[blazing rune]

Oh ty

[tender shard]

you can also check my permission plugins source code ^^

https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/Spigot-LightPerms

it's extremely simple

[shrewd solstice]

guys?

is there a way to detect blocks between 2 position im in 1.16.5

[tender shard]

blocks between 2 poisionts?

[shrewd solstice]

yes

[tender shard]

like everything between 0,0,0 and 100,100,100?

you can just loop over the coordinates inside your area

[shrewd solstice]

like every block between my position and 8 block in front of me

[tender shard]

Player#getLineOfSight

[shrewd solstice]

?

[tender shard]

?

that's the method you are looking for

[wide imp]

can anyone help me figure out why configuration comments are duplicating on restart

choco said something about this but i havent been able to find anymore information about it

[tender shard]

what configuration comments?

your own plugin?

[wide imp]

yes

[tender shard]

show your code to save the config pls

[olive lance]

Comments in yaml is recent?

I thought you could always comment

[regal dew]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/util/BlockIterator.html

[wide imp]

not the comments themselves, but they duplicate themselves every redstart

and the config file grows exponentially

[tender shard]

^

[wide imp]

https://github.com/BG-Software-LLC/CommentedConfiguration

[tender shard]

is that from those wildstacker dudes?

[quiet ice]

btw commented configs are done by default now

[wide imp]

from what i can see mcmmo had the same

[hybrid spoke]

thats just the how. we need the where

[wide imp]

i saw something in mcmmo discord about snakeyml changing in the recent updates?

[vague swallow]

Is there a way to make ghost players without a team?

[wide imp]

i dont think so

[tender shard]

what are ghost players?

[vague swallow]

like if the player is transparent

[hardy swan]

spectator?

[vague swallow]

nooo

[tender shard]

you could use packets

[vague swallow]

if seeFriendlyInvisibles is true in a team then your invisible teammates are transparent

[hybrid spoke]

make them invisible and give them glowing

[vague swallow]

sure this is working?

[hybrid spoke]

its not really what you wanna achieve

but it goes in that direction

[vague swallow]

I want to see the skin, because I want to make holograms

like in star wars

[hybrid spoke]

then not

[hardy swan]

oh you are thinking of translucent

[hybrid spoke]

this would just outline the player and make the rest invisible

[hardy swan]

not transparent

i think just the head is possible cuz that's what spectator mode is, never seen anyone did a full body ghost

[vague swallow]

yeeees

[vague swallow]

sorry my english is not the best

[hybrid spoke]

seems like its clientside

[vague swallow]

no it's not, I sadly can't upload screenshots here

[tender shard]

send a packet to the client that the player is spectator and that you have this "friendly team" thingy

[tender shard]

get verified

[hardy swan]

oh wait now i think of it i did see a full body ghost before

when i played block hunt haha

[hybrid spoke]

same in real life

oh

[hardy swan]

oh

_>

[hybrid spoke]

but actually never saw that before

other than in spectator

[quaint mantle]

um so i made a lifesteal smp server with spigot on aternos for 1.18.1 then it says U need spigot and i cant go in the server

[tender shard]

what?

[hybrid spoke]

#help-server

[hardy swan]

confusing in so many levels

[tender shard]

aternos should be illegal anyway

worst hoster ever

[quaint mantle]

no

[hardy swan]

free tho

[hybrid spoke]

its okay for a free one

but i would not give them any money

[hardy swan]

is realms good?

[jagged thicket]

NO

[tender shard]

realms suck

[jagged thicket]

aternos better tbh

realms so bad

[hardy swan]

can you even develop for realms servers

what kind of api do they run on if so

[proud basin]

I don’t think so

just because you don’t get access to any of the files

[tender shard]

none

it's vanilla

[hardy swan]

wow that really suck

actually suck wtf

even aternos is better

[quaint mantle]

no

[eternal oxide]

yes

I think

I never had any issues reading async

you can;t write though

[hybrid spoke]

depends on the version

[tender shard]

if the chunk is unloaded, you're gonna be fucked

if it's loaded there's a good chance reading will work

[hybrid spoke]

it will 1.8>

[tender shard]

who still uses 1.8 shouldn'T be allowed to ask here anything anyway 😛

[hybrid spoke]

really depends on the usecase

i still have to use 1.8 since my plugins support it

[tender shard]

I dropped support for everything below 1.16 a few months ago and it was the best decision I ever made

(besides drinking jägermeister)

[hardy swan]

almost no one runs on 1.15 or 1.14

almost because i cant be sure lol

[quaint mantle]

Reading such thing can cause writing. Also, no one guaranties that it is nor going to be modified at the same time.

[hybrid spoke]

yeah, sadly you cant just do that with for example an anti AutoClicker plugin

[hybrid spoke]

unstable af

at least 1.14

[hardy swan]

i heard 1.15 has shit performance too

[quaint mantle]

pff

[ashen vessel]

Trying to add the mongodb java driver to pom.xml. However it just says depency not found

[quaint mantle]

1.18 didnt went too far

[hybrid spoke]

1.15 is okay

[hardy swan]

repo included?

[hybrid spoke]

we cant do anything with that without seeing your pom

[tender shard]

no

[hybrid spoke]

the one to see the plugin version f.e?

[hardy swan]

yea that one and the Xeroblahblah api

[hybrid spoke]

3 hours +-

[hardy swan]

I meant xenforo

[hardy swan]

ah ok tanks

[spiral light]

you stopped drinking it ???

[tender shard]

no

of course not

I love my jäger

[spiral light]

wtf xD nice

[hybrid spoke]

how did that picture came so fast

[tender shard]

mobile phones exist lol

[hardy swan]

he drinking rn

[ashen vessel]

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

[hybrid spoke]

and why do you have a towel?

[tender shard]

it's a blanket

because I'm cold af

[spiral light]

it looks like.... ehmm is the jägi not cooled ???

[tender shard]

nah I don't like it when it's cold lol

I drink it at room temperature

[hybrid spoke]

ew

[spiral light]

its burning at room temp. ^^

[tender shard]

nah

a nice warm jäger

[hybrid spoke]

so, everything should be set up correctly and its still red?

[ashen vessel]

Yep

[hybrid spoke]

did you try to invalidate your caches/restart/force download

[tender shard]

run mvn clean package -U and then send the FULL maven log pls

[ashen vessel]

No idea how to do

[hybrid spoke]

what ide do you use

[ashen vessel]

Intellij

[ashen vessel]

Cant run maven commands

[hybrid spoke]

File > Invalidate Caches

[visual tide]

everything > 1.12 does

[tender shard]

lol

why not

[hybrid spoke]

just install maven xD

[spiral light]

only shit performance if your pc / server is bad ^^

[visual tide]

not installed 😐

[ashen vessel]

Lol

[hybrid spoke]

otherwise intellij provides quick commands you can use even without maven

[tender shard]

why do you have a pom if you cannot run maven commands

[visual tide]

intellij buttons 😄

[ashen vessel]

Because Im a shit java developer that doesnt no fuck all what hes doing

🙂

[ashen vessel]

^

[tender shard]

you can run maven commands like this

oh shit

it doesnt show the GUI

[hybrid spoke]

ugh, default design

[tender shard]

when you click on the "m" button

you can enter "mvn clean install -U"

[tender shard]

show screenshot of yours

[hardy swan]

ok hear me out

mvn archetype::generate

[ashen vessel]

Ok it works now

[hybrid spoke]

https://i.imgur.com/lIo3BHb.png

[ashen vessel]

Still get a maven shaded thing caution message but idrc. It builds successfully

[tender shard]

that would make me go crazy. why are the fields red

[hardy swan]

duplicated classes

[tender shard]

I'd always think something's wrong lol

Idk how to exclude META-INF

[hybrid spoke]

once also had colored icons

[tender shard]

important thing is the <filter> part with the META-INF thing

[hardy swan]

<createDependencyReducedPom>true</createDependencyReducedPom>?

nvm

[tender shard]

you don't need that

you only need this:

[hardy swan]

i don't need nothing

[ashen vessel]

Ok thanks

[quiet ice]

What does ** do again? Only match files in the folder or does it also do it recursively?

[tender shard]

I really don't understand why people hate the default theme 😄

[tender shard]

recursively

[hybrid spoke]

its so monotone and boring

[tender shard]

yeah but

it's about the content

[hybrid spoke]

i get hyped by mine

[tender shard]

I wouldn't even notice if the colors were different, I don't look at them

[hybrid spoke]

so change it for us all

[tender shard]

okay send a file to import

[granite beacon]

Question, it seems like when using getResource() and then Files.copy my file is growing in size and getting corrupted.
It's happening even after no other section of code access the file/directory.

Files.copy(getResource("region.slime"), Paths.get(mapFolder.getAbsolutePath() + "\\region.slime"), StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING);

Top is the copy using that bit of code and bottom is the resource folder.

[hardy swan]

best colors

[hybrid spoke]

so we can look without being bored at your screens

[tender shard]

sure, just tell me what I have to do lol

[hybrid spoke]

just install any theme

[tender shard]

I looked through the most popular 20 themes in the plugin section and they all looked a 12 year old created them

[quiet ice]

Just go with the eclipse theme

[tender shard]

good one lol

[quiet ice]

It is a theme after all

[tender shard]

I am glad I uninstalled eclipse 1.5 years ago

never looked back

Idea truly is superior

[hybrid spoke]

which event I must use to detect when someone steps on wheat and try to break it

[quiet ice]

I don't really understand why people switch IDEs, it is such a pain to get comfy with one

[tender shard]

 @EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.HIGHEST, ignoreCancelled = true)
    public void onTrampleCrops(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
        Player player = event.getPlayer();
        if(event.getAction() != Action.PHYSICAL) return;
        if(!main.getConfig().getBoolean(Config.LEATHER_PREVENTS_TRAMPLING)) return;
        if(event.getClickedBlock() == null || event.getClickedBlock().getType() != Material.FARMLAND) return;
        double chance = 0;
        for(ItemStack item : player.getInventory().getArmorContents()) {
            if(item==null) continue;
            if(item.getType().name().startsWith("LEATHER_")) chance += 0.25;
            if(main.getConfig().getBoolean(Config.ONLY_REQUIRE_BOOTS) && item.getType() == Material.LEATHER_BOOTS) {
                chance = 1.0;
                break;
            }
        }
        if(random.nextDouble(0,1) < chance) {
            event.setCancelled(true);
        }
    }

TL;DR InteractEvent, Action.PHYSICAL

[mellow edge]

so the same as pressure plate

thanks!

[tender shard]

np

[quiet ice]

Honestly, just do

try (FileOutputStream fos = new FIleOutputStream(new File(mapFolder, "region.slime")) {
    try (InputStream is = getResourceAsStream("region.slime")) {
       is.transferTo(fos);
    }
} catch (IOException e) {
    throw new IllegalStateException(e);
}

God do I love doing these low level streams

[granite beacon]

I'll give it a go

[tender shard]

why don't you just use saveResource

[granite beacon]

Doesn't that save it to the plugins directory?

[tender shard]

depends

where do you want to save it?

is mapFolder inside the world folder?

[granite beacon]

/maps/

no, it's in the main server folder

[tender shard]

oh okay nvm then

[worldly ingot]

saveResource() will save it in the same directory you have it in your local project

[tender shard]

yeah but they need it in server root/maps/

[worldly ingot]

relative to your plugin's dir

Yeah then you have to save it with getResource() ;p

[tender shard]

yes 🙂 I'd just copy bukkits saveResource code and adjust it lol

[worldly ingot]

There is getResourceAsStream() though iirc

[tender shard]

yes

[granite beacon]

lmao

that works too lol

[worldly ingot]

Can then write the bytes to an arbitrary file

[tender shard]

    public void saveResource(@NotNull String resourcePath, boolean replace) {
        if (resourcePath != null && !resourcePath.equals("")) {
            resourcePath = resourcePath.replace('\\', '/');
            InputStream in = this.getResource(resourcePath);
            if (in == null) {
                throw new IllegalArgumentException("The embedded resource '" + resourcePath + "' cannot be found in " + this.file);
            } else {
                File outFile = new File(this.dataFolder, resourcePath);
                int lastIndex = resourcePath.lastIndexOf(47);
                File outDir = new File(this.dataFolder, resourcePath.substring(0, lastIndex >= 0 ? lastIndex : 0));
                if (!outDir.exists()) {
                    outDir.mkdirs();
                }

                try {
                    if (outFile.exists() && !replace) {
                        this.logger.log(Level.WARNING, "Could not save " + outFile.getName() + " to " + outFile + " because " + outFile.getName() + " already exists.");
                    } else {
                        OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(outFile);
                        byte[] buf = new byte[1024];

                        int len;
                        while((len = in.read(buf)) > 0) {
                            out.write(buf, 0, len);
                        }

                        out.close();
                        in.close();
                    }
                } catch (IOException var10) {
                    this.logger.log(Level.SEVERE, "Could not save " + outFile.getName() + " to " + outFile, var10);
                }

            }
        } else {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("ResourcePath cannot be null or empty");
        }
    }

that's the builtin saveResource method 😄

[quiet ice]

                        byte[] buf = new byte[1024];

                        int len;
                        while((len = in.read(buf)) > 0) {
                            out.write(buf, 0, len);
                        }

                        out.close();
                        in.close();

I'd rather use Java 10's in.transferTo(out); and also use try-with-resources instead of these few lines which are just a memory drain

You can tell that this method was written when Java 8 (perhaps even Java 7) wasn't a thing. Nowadays we have a lot more things that are vastly superior to this

[quaint mantle]

and md_5 just not having much time to reformat and rewrites those codes

[quiet ice]

And I am too lazy PRing stuff to spigot.

[quaint mantle]

spigot could be not that big if someone do it

like a massive 2mb rewrite?

[tender shard]

I'm not too lazy, I just have no idea how it actually works

[granite beacon]

Yeah I checked but it still grew in size :|

Could it be because of how java is packaging the file?

[quiet ice]

Then just delete the file beforehand honestly

Make sure the append modifier is not set

[lean bone]

Could anyone help me with this?

[quiet ice]

Or just don't save if the file is already present

[granite beacon]

There was no file present

[quiet ice]

Then why would it grow in size?

[granite beacon]

I don't know

[quiet ice]

Actually, what do you expect to happen in the first place?

[granite beacon]

I want to save a file from my resource folder to a folder

[quiet ice]

That the file is some kind of virtual link to the jar entry or do you expect a hard copy (which will require some space on the file system)?

[hardy swan]

you can change file's name after

[granite beacon]

I want a copy of the file that is identical to the initial file in the resource folder

[quiet ice]

Ah, you mean that the file is actually not stored as it should be

[granite beacon]

Correct

It's growing in size and corrupting

[quiet ice]

What happens if you use mvn clean package instead of mvn package to build the jar?

[granite beacon]

I am doing that

[hollow beacon]

isnt the initial resource folder read only

i just started reading, which file is corrupting?

[granite beacon]

region.slime

[quiet ice]

Hm, and the resource is inflated even in the jar?

[quiet ice]

(i. e. unzip the jar and check the file sizes)

[granite beacon]

let me see

how can I check the size with jd gui?

[quiet ice]

Just unzip the jar

[hollow beacon]

just open it as a zip -ninja'd

[quiet ice]

If not, some whacky JVM or Classloader stuff is going on.
If yes, maven is being strange (I have seen it inflating jar entries in the past, but only on class files as of now)

[hollow beacon]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19500458/maven-resource-binary-changes-file-size-after-build

i guess u just disable filtering

[granite beacon]

I am so confused as to how I open this jar lol

[hollow beacon]

right click

and open with winrar

or change the .jar to .zio

and then double click it

[granite beacon]

step one get winrar got it

[hollow beacon]

thats it, if its open with winrar you should see the files

[granite beacon]

Size has gone up on compile

nice

[hollow beacon]

try disabling filters

[granite beacon]

so

<nonFilteredFileExtensions>      <nonFilteredFileExtension>slime</nonFilteredFileExtension>
</nonFilteredFileExtensions>

?

[quiet ice]

Likely

[hollow beacon]

yep

[granite beacon]

here we go, fingers crossed

So

It's not compiling now

[hollow beacon]

show your pom

?iin

?bin

!bin

idk

[granite beacon]

no worries lol

[eternal oxide]

?paste

[undone axle]

[hollow beacon]

thanks.

[hollow beacon]

whats the error?

[granite beacon]

if only I knew

[royal vale]

How to translate hex codes to color codes?

[granite beacon]

Color.decode("")

[tender shard]

ff0000 -> &x&f&f&0&0&0&0

and then run it through translateAlternateColorCodes

[granite beacon]

Oh wait he meant in game

I'm dumb

[tender shard]

idk 😄

I assumed it's for configurable messages

[hollow beacon]

strange..

[granite beacon]

Would it be a bad idea to just

<resources>
            <resource>
                <directory>src/main/resources</directory>
                <filtering>false</filtering>
            </resource>
        </resources>

[hollow beacon]

try running mvn package -X

for debugging

[granite beacon]

and just dump that in a paste?

[hollow beacon]

sure

[granite beacon]

it seems to be an issue when it attempts to filter a zip

[hollow beacon]

show me

[granite beacon]

I deleted all zips and now it compiled

[hollow beacon]

coolsies

[granite beacon]

weird

[hollow beacon]

also add zip to your nonFilteredFileExtension then

[granite beacon]

I was just about to do that

works

thanks man ❤️

[hollow beacon]

lovely

you're welcome

[royal vale]

Rn it returns this

I've tried with &x&0&1&7&f&c&6

[tender shard]

you have to turn ff0000 into &x &f &f &0 &0 &0 &0

[royal vale]

Cuz last one is &6

[tender shard]

without the spaces

It looks like an bungee api issue

&x&0&1&7&f&c&6 translates to orange

[tardy delta]

should i separate my database and cache implementation?

[tender shard]

but that's not valid in any way

try to hardcode &x&f&f&0&0&0&0

see if it shows a solid red

[royal vale]

I did...

[tender shard]

it does work fine for me in bungee

[royal vale]

I literally put &x&0&1&7&f&c&6 in the config

[tender shard]

and you ran that through chatcolor.translate... ?

[royal vale]

So it just translated via chatcolor

Yes

[tender shard]

where did you use it? in the chat? actionbar? ... ?

[royal vale]

I'm on 1.17

Server ping

Worked before

Now it doesn't

[tender shard]

what did you change since it doesn't work anymore?

[royal vale]

Using bungee api 1.18

Didn't change anything about the code itself

Except

StringBuffer

to StringBuilder

[tender shard]

can you show your full server ping code?

[royal vale]

} else {
    serverPing.setDescriptionComponent(new TextComponent(NetworkTools.color(String.join("\n", Configs.config.getStringList("modules.motd.message")))));
}

e.setResponse(serverPing);

public class ProxyPingListener implements Listener {

    @EventHandler
    public void onProxyPing(ProxyPingEvent e) {

[tender shard]

I have this:

    @EventHandler
    public void onPing(ProxyPingEvent event) {
        if(!config.getBoolean("enabled")) return;
        ServerPing ping = event.getResponse();
        ping.setPlayers(new ServerPing.Players(config.getInt("max-players"), ProxyServer.getInstance().getOnlineCount(),ping.getPlayers().getSample()));
        String motd = config.getString("motd");
        if(motd == null || motd.length()==0) return;
        motd = motd.replace("%countdown%", getCountdown());
        BaseComponent[] components = TextComponent.fromLegacyText(TinyTextUtils.format(motd));
        BaseComponent component = components[0];
        for(int i = 1; i < components.length; i++) {
            component.addExtra(components[i]);
        }
        ping.setDescriptionComponent(component);
        if(favicon != null) {
            ping.setFavicon(Favicon.create(favicon));
        }
        event.setResponse(ping);
    }

So the text is translated by TinyTextUtils.format, which looks like this:

```java

[hollow beacon]

remove the chatcolor translatething

[royal vale]

Why??

[tender shard]

lol no

[hollow beacon]

iirc it gets handled by bungee itself if its that format?

[royal vale]

The translate is so normal color codes translate to

[hollow beacon]

hmm

[tender shard]

https://github.com/mfnalex/JeffBungeeKickToLobby

[hollow beacon]

can you remove it and try

translateAlternateColorCodes("&", color(message));

so essentialy removing it from the method

public static final Pattern HEX_PATTERN = Pattern.compile("&#(\\w{5}[0-9a-f])");

public String translateHexCodes (String textToTranslate) {

        Matcher matcher = HEX_PATTERN.matcher(textToTranslate);
        StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();

        while(matcher.find()) {
            matcher.appendReplacement(buffer, ChatColor.of("#" + matcher.group(1)).toString());
        }

        return ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', matcher.appendTail(buffer).toString());

    }

[tender shard]

seems like your color() method does stupid stuff

[hollow beacon]

your regex is fucked

[tender shard]

print out the whole translated string to console WITHOUT running it rhough translateAlternateColorCodes

you did something wrong with the regex, yes

you shouldnt use ChatColor.of to translate it

[hollow beacon]

public String translateHexColorCodes(String startTag, String endTag, String message)
    {
        final Pattern hexPattern = Pattern.compile(startTag + "([A-Fa-f0-9]{6})" + endTag);
        Matcher matcher = hexPattern.matcher(message);
        StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer(message.length() + 4 * 8);
        while (matcher.find())
        {
            String group = matcher.group(1);
            matcher.appendReplacement(buffer, COLOR_CHAR + "x"
                    + COLOR_CHAR + group.charAt(0) + COLOR_CHAR + group.charAt(1)
                    + COLOR_CHAR + group.charAt(2) + COLOR_CHAR + group.charAt(3)
                    + COLOR_CHAR + group.charAt(4) + COLOR_CHAR + group.charAt(5)
                    );
        }
        return matcher.appendTail(buffer).toString();
    }
``` this has the most positive ratings on spigot

[tender shard]

you should simply manually turn ff0000 into &x&f&f&0&0&0&0

it will 100% work fine then

[royal vale]

But even §x§0§1§7§f§c§6O makes orange

[tender shard]

yes sure you must not use §

[royal vale]

I know

I just used it in the config

And it still shows orange

...

[hollow beacon]

try my code

has the most ratngs on spigot

lol

[royal vale]

it's the same

[hollow beacon]

you need a starter for it

so a start char

[crimson verge]

i never had issues with ChatColor.of() so ._.

[tender shard]

    @EventHandler
    public void onPing(ProxyPingEvent event) {
        if(!config.getBoolean("enabled")) return;

        BaseComponent component = components[0];
        for(int i = 1; i < components.length; i++) {
            component.addExtra(components[i]);

could be why

some 3rd part clients dont accept hex codes

oh than maybe lunar dos

[tender shard]

that doesn't make any sense imho

Lunar also seemingly randomly breaks

[hasty prawn]

So it could still definitely be Lunar

lmfao

[tender shard]

?

[crimson verge]

dessie youre great

[tender shard]

what does the java version have to do with this

[stone sinew]

It gets cleaner in higher java versions...

[royal vale]

That's what it used to do

[tender shard]

it doesn't make sense because the translation method simply isn't correct

I wasn't talking about any java version things

[stone sinew]

Works fine for me xD

Makes sense to me too.

[tender shard]

oh sorry I quoted the wrong code

[hasty prawn]

Yeah my HEX color conversion is effectively the same as Yappery's

And I'm fairly certain it works

[tender shard]

https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/JeffLib/blob/master/core/src/main/java/de/jeff_media/jefflib/data/HexColor.java here's my hexcolor class and here's my textutils class to translate them and it works without any problems on all 1.16+ versions, both with spigot and bungeecord https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/JeffLib/blob/master/core/src/main/java/de/jeff_media/jefflib/TextUtils.java

[crimson verge]

also would still recommend testing on vanilla mc client if able uwu

[hasty prawn]

^^

[tender shard]

I'd suggest to print out the text before and after running it rhough translateAlternate..... to console

[royal vale]

Other servers have hex color codes

In their motd

Im so confused

[tender shard]

your translation method is broken, I've said that 10 times already

[royal vale]

it worked before!?!?

Lemme change it to yours

[hollow beacon]

welcome to programming

[crimson verge]

^ lmfao

sometimes shit just breaks for no good reason

gotta roll with the punches

[tender shard]

actually it doesn't 😄

[hollow beacon]

yeah it does

[tender shard]

if stuff breaks for you with no apparent reason, something MUST have changed

[hollow beacon]

i rolled out an app, worked all good. then the ios developers took a look at it and it just didn't work at all

[tender shard]

if the same code runs with the same input, it produces the same result

[ancient plank]

uwu

[crimson verge]

thats what i mean lol, something changes and nobody tells ya so it just breaks for "no good reason"

[shrewd solstice]

is there a way to give knockback to the mob im looking at?

[crimson verge]

is there a way, probably. is it gonna create a lag machine? also probably lmfao

i cant imagine a way to do that without a ton of lag

[hasty prawn]

Depends on how often you're checking

[tender shard]

I doubt that checking who a player looks at every tick will cause any lag

unless you check it in a distance of 10,000 blocks

[crimson verge]

LMAO fair

[tender shard]

every hostile mob basically checks its line of sight every tick

[hasty prawn]

I doubt they need to check every tick anyways

[ancient plank]

I wrote some pretty inefficient stuff recently

[tender shard]

true, just wanted to say it wouldn't really create a "lag machine" 🙂

[ancient plank]

good fun

[hasty prawn]

Applying knockback every tick is gonna make the mob, well not be there anymore

[tender shard]

yeah 😄

[hasty prawn]

Did it work

[tender shard]

I'd check every tick if you're looking at an entity, and if yes, do a cooldown of 1 second or so when you've applied knockback to that mob

[ashen vessel]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[ancient plank]

it makes the whole server freeze up for a few seconds, so yes.

[hasty prawn]

Awesome

[ashen vessel]

Ok so im trying to open a db connection and also access it from across classes. I am very noob with java so I can use it but not do anything I actually wanna do so I need help. https://paste.md-5.net/qalumafafu.java

[tender shard]

I can use it but not do anything I actually wanna do so I need help.
what?

[ashen vessel]

I have a very hard to understanding 100% how java works. Thats all

[hollow beacon]

make a xyz loop and just get the blocks using getBlockData

[tender shard]

wrong reply? 😛

[hollow beacon]

whoops

[royal vale]

@tender shard used ur method

Still didnt work :(

[hollow beacon]

use a vanilla client thnx

[tender shard]

print out the text BEFORE and AFTER you ran it it through translateAlternateColorCodes

[royal vale]

I did

[royal vale]

I used ur exact files

[hollow beacon]

yeah

[tender shard]

print out the text BEFORE and AFTER you ran it it through translateAlternateColorCodes

[hollow beacon]

thats what i did for my xray plugin anyways

if you do it alot just make a thread

all good

let me chck

for (int x = 0; x <= 15; x++) {
for (int y = 0; y <= 255; y++) {
for (int z = 0; z <= 15; z++) {

[minor fox]

What is the recommended way of adding NMS to your project using paper?

[tender shard]

using paper or not doesn't have anything to do with it

to get NMS, run buildtools --remapped, then add spigot as dependency

[tender shard]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/nms-use-mojang-mappings-for-your-spigot-plugins/

[ashen vessel]

Can someone please help...

[tender shard]

what exactly is the problem?

[royal vale]

[NetworkTools]:                 &#017fc6&lO&#1299d1&lr&#23b2dd&le&#33cce8&lo&#44e5f4&lM&#55ffff&lC &7[1.12-1.18]
     &eVanillaSMP - SurvivalSMP - PVP Practice

[hollow beacon]

google dependency injection

[tender shard]

yes that's not correct at all

[hollow beacon]

read some websites and you'll be good to go

[tender shard]

how do you generate that text

[hollow beacon]

he forgot the starting character

exactly like i said

[tender shard]

that's not the only problem

[hollow beacon]

your starting character is #

[tender shard]

ff0000 -> &x&f&f&0&0&0&0

[ashen vessel]

I want to access the mongoclient variable set in my onEnable. but its completely ignored int he public methos on the bottom

[tender shard]

but its completely ignored int he public methos on the bottom
what?

[ashen vessel]

Just nvm ill do some reading

[tender shard]

sorry but that sentence is cursed lol

[hollow beacon]

lol

[tender shard]

noone can understand it

[ashen vessel]

Lmao I just realized that

[royal vale]

What should it be?

Just # instead of &#

[ashen vessel]

but its completely ignored by the public method on the bottom

[tender shard]

okay again: imagine you have the color FF0000

and you want to print "TEST"

[hollow beacon]

what is completely ignored?

[tender shard]

then you should pass EXACTLY this to translateAlternateChatColor:

&x&f&f&0&0&0&0TEST

so basically: add a & in front of every char of your hex color, and in front of the whole color, add &x

#000000 -> &x&0&0&0&0&0&0
#FFFFFF -> &x&f&f&f&f&f&f

etc

[ancient plank]

someone should make a thread

[ashen vessel]

https://gyazo.com/833147b1a316ac469dda977f749d083a
I want to access this variable with this connection. But it doesnt grab it from there it grabs it from the initializer at the very top

[hasty prawn]

I vote alex

[tender shard]

yeah pls open a thread for the hex color thing

hex colors

[hollow beacon]

it looks ok like this

the line you circeled is the initializer

oh i see

remove the first MongoClient

so

mongoClient = MongoClients.create();

that way it uses the public variable

[tender shard]

tbh @ashen vessel

?learnjava

[undone axle]

Here are some links to get you started on learning Java:

• https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-java
• https://www.sololearn.com/learning/1068
• https://www.learnjavaonline.org/
• https://programmingbydoing.com/
• https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/index.html

The last one is the only official one, however some of those concepts assume that you already know a bit about programming.

[tender shard]

no offense but this is not a spigot related question, it's about basic concepts of java

you must know about variable scopes etc

[shadow night]

wtf

[ashen vessel]

Ik i just figured you guys would have the answer, Ill go over to the java discord (if there is one)

[hollow beacon]

i gave you the answer

[hollow beacon]

like right here

[ashen vessel]

Ik

I try that, but then it cant resolve that variable

[shadow night]

help...

[hollow beacon]

help with what bro

[shadow night]

when I do Bukkit.getScheduler() it says theres no getScheduler

[hollow beacon]

huh it should work tho

[hollow beacon]

check your imports

[proud basin]

isn't it getSchedulers?

[ashen vessel]

Ok so I know I wasnt going crazy

[shadow night]

I've imported Bukkit

[proud basin]

clear your cache

[hollow beacon]

try any other method

and that

[ancient plank]

:)

[hollow beacon]

in intellij try

file -> restart and invalidate caches

[shadow night]

alr tried

[ashen vessel]

https://gyazo.com/2db64ea408c4853ecd3f88ef87e15594

[ancient plank]

xd

[proud basin]

bro

it literally says the issue

[ashen vessel]

Ik

[ancient plank]

just learn some java man

this is a very basic java issue

[shadow night]

😢

[proud basin]

what spigot version is that

[tender shard]

add a ; at the back, let it compile and show the compiler error

oh wait

I know your problem

you use that outside of any method etc, right?

show your full class pls

[ancient plank]

jeff media is big brain

[proud basin]

who?

[tender shard]

me

lulz

[proud basin]

ur mfnalex

[tender shard]

jeff media is my c0mp4niii

[proud basin]

that's what they all say...

[ancient plank]

problem solved ez

[tender shard]

yeah

that's what I suspected

[vocal cloud]

What happened to the zoom in on the logo. I was hoping for a meme where it enlarges slowly

[tender shard]

what logo

[proud basin]

maybe the spigot server logo?

[quiet ice]

that never had a zoom to begin with

[tender shard]

nah it just gets filled up with md5's special sauce

i.e. water

[vocal cloud]

your logo yesterday it was yuuuge

[halcyon mica]

How can I get a item type from a identifier?

i.e. a "minecraft:whatever" string

[tender shard]

item type? wdm?

[tender shard]

my profile pic?

[vocal cloud]

yeahhhh

[halcyon mica]

You know, a valid material to initialize a item stack

[trail bough]

like id to item material?

[tender shard]

valid materials are always minecraft:something

Material.valueOf("DIRT") for example

[halcyon mica]

That is not accepting a resource location though

[tender shard]

there are no custom blocks in spigot

they simply don't exist

what do you want to do anyway?

[halcyon mica]

it's fine, I'll just use the nms item registry

[tender shard]

that will not change anything

there simply are no custom items when you don't use client and server mods

period

[worn tundra]

Which you can overcome, by using resource packs.

[tender shard]

no

it's still vanilla items

it's still minecraft:note_block

[worn tundra]

Both for custom items and custom blocks, the latter requiring to sacrifice a few blocks with blockstates.

[tender shard]

just with custom textures for certain blockstates

yeah

it's still internally only minecraft:whatever blocks

[worn tundra]

For custom items you can do up to 2 billion textures per material

Yeah, of course. You don't really need it to be anything else.

[worn tundra]

Which your block persistent data util is really useful for, by the way <3

[tender shard]

:3

I had that idea in a dream lol

ahaha

https://github.com/bloodmc/GriefDefenderAPI/issues/10#issuecomment-1013287562

only took them 1.5 years

[worn tundra]

Premium plugin btw

[tender shard]

😄

unfortunately many paid plugins have way slower support than free ones

because most free devs care about ratings, while paid authors care mostly about income >.<

[halcyon mica]

        private ItemStack parseStack(JsonObject obj) throws JsonParseException {
            Item type = IRegistry.ITEM.getOptional(MinecraftKey.a(obj.get("type").getAsString())).orElseThrow(() -> new JsonParseException("Unable to parse item entry! Invalid Item Type: " + obj.get("type").getAsString()));
            net.minecraft.server.v1_16_R3.ItemStack item = new net.minecraft.server.v1_16_R3.ItemStack(type, obj.get("count").getAsInt());
            if(obj.has("nbt")) {
                try {

                    String tag = e.isJsonObject() ? Cow.GSON.toJson(e) : e.getAsString();
                    item.setTag(new MojangsonParser(new StringReader(tag)).f());
                } catch(CommandSyntaxException ex) {
                    throw new JsonParseException("Unable to parse item entry! Invalid NBT data!", ex);
                }
            }
            return CraftItemStack.asBukkitCopy(item);
        }```NMS is really not hard to use when you have experience in client modding

I'd argue it's even easier to use

The only annoying part is the constant need to convert between nms and spigot/bukkit objects

[hasty prawn]

Easier to use is definitely a stretch

[halcyon mica]

Its subjective, I suppose

I have much less issues dealing with the actual minecraft systems than the abstracted bukkit versions of them

[hasty prawn]

I guess, but Spigot is fully documented so I would say it's WAY easier to learn how Spigot works than it is how NMS does.

[halcyon mica]

So is vanilla though

It's just that this documentation is not found within the spigot community, but the modding one

[hasty prawn]

The server side is documented?

[halcyon mica]

Mhm

[hasty prawn]

[halcyon mica]

Much more than the client stuff actually

Because rendering is a black magic barely anyone dares to touch

[ancient plank]

modding makes me wanna commit war crimes

[hasty prawn]

My issue with modding was that nothing was documented

[halcyon mica]

You must have used forge

[hasty prawn]

Yep.

Fabric is more documented I suppose?

[ancient plank]

fabric is way easier than forge

[halcyon mica]

Yep

[hasty prawn]

I haven't tried in a while so

[halcyon mica]

It also has proper mappings

[trail bough]

Fabric is better than forge but has less compatability with other mods [since most use forge] and visa versa

[halcyon mica]

Open source ones, which can be distributed freely

See yarn

And even have parameter names, unlike the official mojang ones

[ancient plank]

I mostly use fabric for client side stuff since y'know its easy as fk to do that with it

[halcyon mica]

I don't like to do "x is better than y" for anything, but except existing mod compatibitly, forge has nothing above fabric

[hasty prawn]

Sure it does! It's... faster to type...

and...

yep.

[halcyon mica]

lolno

Proxies make me shiver

[hasty prawn]

The only reason I still use Forge over Fabric is because of 1.8.9

[maiden briar]

public String onPlaceholderRequest(Player player, String params) this method is from PlaceholderAPI. I cannot change it. However, I'd like to asynchronously replace the placeholders, because I am getting data from my database

[hasty prawn]

If servers are gonna support it, might as well us it.

[halcyon mica]

I mean

Legacy fabric exists

[thorny python]

you cannot do this async, placeholder need answer from you immediately after execute the request

[maiden briar]

Ok time to change my methods then....

[thorny python]

you may consider add cache or something about db

[maiden briar]

Yes, but other servers can also update the values

So I wanna stay up to date

[thorny python]

uh that's tricky

unless you get notified when it get updated

[maiden briar]

Exactly, don't know that

[thorny python]

bungee have way to distribute message across servers iirc

[maiden briar]

I know, but it also might be on another bungee instance

[thorny python]

uh

[trail bough]

how do i get a user's uuid? i can't find it in the docs thru a quick search [though i'm dumb so yh]

Nevermind

it's probably getUniqueID

yup

[thorny python]

create a queue in some common communication channel and keep attempt consuming message in async task

complicate tho

[maiden briar]

Yes, if that problem could be solved

Let's build in a synchronised exception then

[thorny python]

hm personally I dont really go for extremely high performance, lazy to do async even in db xd

[maiden briar]

xD

[thorny python]

is there a efficient way to map user given item stack to a String?

so e.g. user can set current holding item stack to a particular name

and for any other item stack coming in the future, I can map stack to its name which defined by user (if exists)

currently I have to iterate over all saved (ItemStack, String) pairs until I find the first one return true in isSimilar()

[eternal oxide]

https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/treemap-comparator-method-in-java-with-examples/

[thorny python]

um is ItemStack comparable?

[warm mica]

isSimilar is already mostly efficient, actually

[quiet ice]

with what would you compare itemstacks with?

[warm mica]

You could use a tree/hash map with the materials at the key, meaning that you wouldn't have to iterate them all

[thorny python]

compare itemstack with itemstack

[quiet ice]

Not really, from what I know it clones the itemmeta twice or so. But noone bothered to fix it so eh

[thorny python]

ya map material first seems relatively good way

[quiet ice]

On what would you sort the stacks though?

[thorny python]

I am reading the link from ElgarL

[warm mica]

Does it? I think that it's using just the cached one. And it also does a material and data comparison at first, meaning that most checks don't get through anyways

[thorny python]

which suggest using TreeMap

[quiet ice]

I'd not use Treemap

Unless it is String -> Itemstack, otherwise no, makes no sense whatsoever

[thorny python]

treemap need keys to be comparable iirc

[visual tide]

what would be the best way to get the time until the next hour divisible by 6 (so 00,06,12,18)?

[thorny python]

wdym 'time'

a integer of remaining seconds?

[quiet ice]

nope, there is a #getItemMeta call at https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/bukkit/browse/src/main/java/org/bukkit/inventory/ItemStack.java#290, which clones the item meta

[visual tide]

well yes

[quiet ice]

Based on which clock?

[visual tide]

a set timezone

[thorny python]

do some math on System.currentTimeMillis() I guess

[quiet ice]

You'd be insane if you were to do that

[thorny python]

uh why?

[warm mica]

That's a weird decision, but this shouldn't have a huuge effect when he's already decreasing the total amount of checks

[quiet ice]

I think computerphile has a video on that. Timezones are pain to compute

If anything, use Clock#millis instead of System#currentTimeMillis

[thorny python]

oh timezone thing

I still using currentTimeMillis for many timestamp environments

[quiet ice]

I have come to love DateTimeFormatterBuilder

[thorny python]

xd I work around time for some internal functions which no show to the user so it probably easier to use currentTimeMillis

[somber hull]

WHen is the proper time to use something asyncronouslyt?

[thorny python]

when process is slow and you dont need feedback immediately

[somber hull]

Got it

[vocal cloud]

When you have no race conditions as well

[quiet ice]

@visual tide

        Clock c = Clock.systemUTC();
        LocalTime time = LocalTime.now(c);
        int currently = time.getHour();
        int remainingHours = 6 - currently % 6;

something along this line

[tulip owl]

Just cloned InteractiveBooks (https://github.com/Leonardo-DGS/InteractiveBooks) and it won't build or sync in IntelliJ (trying to add a feature), any ideas? That link just leads to a 404.

Could not find spigot-api-1.18-R0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar (org.spigotmc:spigot-api:1.18-R0.1-SNAPSHOT:20211201.040401-5).
Searched in the following locations:
    https://hub.spigotmc.org/nexus/content/repositories/snapshots/org/spigotmc/spigot-api/1.18-R0.1-SNAPSHOT/spigot-api-1.18-R0.1-20211201.040401-5.jar

Possible solution:
 - Declare repository providing the artifact, see the documentation at https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/declaring_repositories.html

[trail bough]

Did you install the API through build tools?

[tulip owl]

yep, the build.gradle has the spigot API in it

https://github.com/Leonardo-DGS/InteractiveBooks/blob/master/build.gradle

[trail bough]

Try the solution it's reccomending? no clue, sorry

[tulip owl]

oh wait, it might need JDK 8

[trail bough]

Is it 1.18.1?

[tulip owl]

yea

[trail bough]

It should be JDK 17

[tulip owl]

but it says J1.8 in build.gradle

[trail bough]

oh

huh
