[viral crag]

somehow you are overriding your main path in whatever shell you are using

[grim ice]

C:\Program Files is not recognized

as an internal or external command

operable program or batch file

[viral crag]

that is always nice

[young knoll]

You’ll need quotes

Because of the space

[grim ice]

"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_291\bin\java" -jar BuildTools.jar --rev 1.16.5

ok

do i remove spigot-api and replace with spigot

[young knoll]

Yes

[grim ice]

or do i have both of them

[young knoll]

Replace

[grim ice]

ok

[jolly haven]

I am making an Spigot Plugin for Minecraft 1.18.1 and everything works just fine. But if i want to use ChatMessageType intellij cannot find it. Somebody has an idea wat i can do?

[viral crag]

import the correct library

[analog hinge]

heey trying to understand what registering an event means.
I tried to search on google but the only results I got where about "how" to register events.
I, on the other hand, would like to know what it means to register an event and what it does.

[young knoll]

It means your event handler method will be called when the event is triggered

[jolly haven]

import net.md_5.bungee.api.ChatMessageType;
Does not work either

[viral crag]

are you sure that is what you are trying to do?

[analog hinge]

ooh is it to lower load on the server?
so that it only listens for events that have been specified and not all possible events?

[young knoll]

No it listens to all of them

But the server needs to know where your handler method is, which is why you need to register it

[analog hinge]

ah ok

[jolly haven]

I want do set the actionbar of an player. And everybody on the Internet does it like this.

player.spigot().sendMessage(ChatMessageType.ACTION_BAR, "asd");

[viral crag]

did you look to see what that import actually gives you?

that specific import only gives you the placement location, it does not give you the sendMessage()

[jolly haven]

This is not my Problem. The only thing missing is the ChatMessageType.ACTION_BAR

[viral crag]

if it is not importing it, you are missing it as a resource/dependancy

[jolly haven]

Sounds logical. But where i can Download the dependency?

[viral crag]

what repositories do you have currently?

[young knoll]

It should be part of the spigot API

[jolly haven]

I thought so too

[viral crag]

// maven { url = 'https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots' }
// maven { url = 'https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/central' }
I believe it is part of one of those two for bungee

[jolly haven]

I´ll try

[granite burrow]

What event is triggered when a player breaks a lead?

Events I tried

EntityUnleashEvent
EntityDamageByEntityEvent
PlayerUnleashEntityEvent

[patent horizon]

is there a resource somewhere about custom events?

[minor garnet]

some who use eclipse ide, know why i getting those declarations problem? that no make sense

[patent horizon]

your package thing doesnt have .src in it

[minor garnet]

but man

wtf

.src is the source code

my other projects dont need it

[patent horizon]

idk man

eclipse overall seems like a messy ide

[minor garnet]

i ill delete that f project

[minor garnet]

my computer dont load intellij ide

[patent horizon]

what

[viral crag]

you specified a binary and it wanted source

[minor garnet]

my computer is very bad, and it does not meet the minimum requirements, it causes it to crash a lot

[tardy delta]

eclipse looks like some 50 years old program

[minor garnet]

are you sure?

[viral crag]

its pretty common when using closed libraries, but that is what I recall that error meaning

[young knoll]

Looks like your src folder isn’t a source folder

[viral crag]

hmm, i thought the note on those two url was in the tutorials

[worldly stream]

i am sorry

Find paperspigot plugins?

my server is PaperSpigot

and I can't find the page or I don't know if it's here..

[tardy delta]

can someone explain me what paperspigot is?

[quiet ice]

it does not exist anymore

It used to be what we refer as to paper

Technically speaking if you are using that name you are referencing an age old unsupported non-spigot server jar, which creates a lot of issues

[woeful crescent]

are there any classes that are damageables but not livingentities

[young knoll]

Spigot 1.8 plugins should run on paper

[patent horizon]

would it be a good idea to hold all my lore lists for guis in a enum?

[stuck flax]

how would I repeat a block of code infinitely

[visual tide]

old name of paper

[stuck flax]

^ trying to make an item generator

[patent horizon]

repeated task scheduler

also nobody likes gen servers

[tardy delta]

while (true) {}

oh lol

[visual tide]

usually while (true), but in a minecraft context thats a big no-no; use the scheduler (Bukkit::getScheduler)

[stuck flax]

alr, ty

[lost matrix]

There are two Damageable interfaces.
But if you are speaking of org.bukkit.entity.Damageable then
the only class that is not a LivingEntity is EnderDragonPart

[young knoll]

Are boats not damagable

[lost matrix]

nope

[tender shard]

ItemSpawnEvent

[lost matrix]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/using-the-event-api/

[viral crag]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/entity/PlayerLeashEntityEvent.html isCancelled() would be possibly what you want

[young knoll]

No

That’s for leashing not unleashing

[tender shard]

you'll need to listen to ItemSpawnEvent if you want to get the leash that was broken

[young knoll]

We should get an event for that

[tender shard]

I always get dropped leads like this iirc

private EntityUnleashEvent lastUnleashEvent = null;

    @EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.MONITOR, ignoreCancelled = true)
    public void onUnleash(EntityUnleashEvent event) {
        lastUnleashEvent = event;
    }

    @EventHandler
    public void onLeashDrop(ItemSpawnEvent event) {
        if(lastUnleashEvent == null) return;
        Item droppedLeash = event.getEntity();
        // Do something with the leash, or cancel the spawn event, or whatever
        lastUnleashEvent = null;
    }

not 100% sure though, maybe I also used a List, Map, or whatever instead. but this should work I guess

[tender shard]

yeah sth like LeashDropEvent that extends ItemSpawnEvent and has the unleash event as field/getter

[somber sequoia]

How would I be able to get players current chunk?

[tender shard]

getLocation().getChunk()? lol

[young knoll]

getLocation.getChunk

[lost matrix]

Player#getChunk() ?

[young knoll]

Is there a shortcut like that?

[lost matrix]

Maybe its from paper...

[tender shard]

not in spigot

[lost matrix]

i see

[somber sequoia]

Thanks you my brudda

You are mucho helpful

[viral crag]

I am aware of that, however in what other case would isCancelled() be called other than the leash breaking or being transferred from the player to a fence?

[granite burrow]

is it possible to get what is attatched to a leash hitch?

[young knoll]

isCancelled is generally set by other plugins

[granite burrow]

I know that you can get it from a mob but is there a way to get it from a LeashHitch Entity

[tender shard]

no

[granite burrow]

dam okay

[tender shard]

maybe using NMS

[granite burrow]

I got it working, I just checked the area around the lead

[viral crag]

isCancelled() is not setable, it is a state query

[young knoll]

setCancelled

[granite burrow]

Is there a way to prevent there being "phantom leads" when the mob is invisible?

[fierce salmon]

what do you mean by phantom leads?

[granite burrow]

do you see the lead going diagonal? thats not a real lead

it was generated by the game, and that only happens when the mobs are invis

[fierce salmon]

you might want to kill all leads and then redo it

[granite burrow]

I've tried that, however each time I place them again they come back, only time they dont is when the mob isn't invis

[fierce salmon]

Did you try restaring your game?

[tender shard]

aren't leashes 100% client sided?

[fierce salmon]

no

i dont think so

[tender shard]

it makes no sense for them to exist on the server since they neither have any collisions nor other behaviour

[granite burrow]

yeah

[viral crag]

seems like a lot more work than retexturing chain

[tender shard]

I think there's only this packet that tells the player to which entity an entity is leashed to

the leash itself probably doesn't really exist anywhere on the server. after all, what would it be? there's no EntityType.LEASH or similar

[fierce salmon]

I can see the leash texture when my friends have them connected to animals

[tender shard]

of course you can. because the server sent you a packet "your friend vladimir is attached to sheep # 1337"

[chrome beacon]

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

:)

[tender shard]

that's

the leash hitch

not the leash

the leash does not exist

[chrome beacon]

Oh you mean the line only

[tender shard]

the leash hitch is the "knot" on a fence

yes they are talking about the "line" I guess

[chrome beacon]

Yeah that makes sense

[viral crag]

leash is a legacy material -> BlockData

[brave sparrow]

Yeah the line is client side

[chrome beacon]

Make sure you're not using Optifine or anything like it

[tender shard]

yeah, that's the item in your inventory

which is now called LEAD

[chrome beacon]

Optifine loves to break stuff

[tender shard]

tbh leads are broken even in vanilla

ever leashed an animal, came back 2 days later and the lead was "gone", but when you killed the animal, it dropped the lead?

[young knoll]

No

[tender shard]

well it happened to me all the time

[young knoll]

But I don’t really use leads for more than transport

[tender shard]

but maybe that was because I was always sing optifine

[sterile token]

Is posible to have a protected constructor and public on a final class?

Sorry for the noob question

[tender shard]

sure

[quaint mantle]

protected? Why

[tender shard]

why should that not be possible

[sterile token]

Because im using Builder pattern

[quaint mantle]

on final class, it is, eh, pointless

[lost matrix]

Not quite. You still have package visibility

But other than that its really weird

[sterile token]

and final because i dont want people to create implementations

[quaint mantle]

jusr leave ir without access modifier

[young knoll]

I always forget you can do that

[sterile token]

What?

[young knoll]

Leave stuff with no access modifier

[lost matrix]

Is the builder a nested class?

[sterile token]

Yeah

[chrome beacon]

Leaving things without access modifiers always feels so wrong

[young knoll]

^

[tender shard]

why not just make it protected

[quaint mantle]

Pointless symbols

[tender shard]

public class Test {

    private final String name;

    protected Test(String name) {
        this.name=name;
    }

    public TestBuilder builder() {
        return new TestBuilder();
    }

    public static class TestBuilder {
        private String name;

        public TestBuilder setName(String name) {
            this.name = name;
            return this;
        }

        public Test build() {
            return new Test(name);
        }
    }
}

Works fine although it's ugly

[lost matrix]

Then you can make the constructor even private

[tender shard]

true

[sterile token]

Oh yeah

[tender shard]

but since the class is final anyway, it doesn't matter

[sterile token]

Because final will make not implementable right?

Ahh thanks for recomdations

[tender shard]

a final class is simply a class that can't be extended

[patent horizon]

how can i enumerate this kind of for loop? for (UUID uuid : cInter.coinflipWagers.keySet()) {

[young knoll]

What do you mean

[tender shard]

by doing what you sent?

[sterile token]

Why that names ?

[patent horizon]

in python there's a function called enumerate that lets you loop through a list of values while also having a variable that keeps the index of the loop

[young knoll]

Ah

I think you gotta do that yourself

[tender shard]

what even is coinflipWagers?

[sterile token]

for (a = 0; a < yourList.length(); a++) {

}

??

Isnt That ?

[patent horizon]

variable instance of a hashmap

[tender shard]

a HashMap doesn't have any "index"

[patent horizon]

it keeps (Player making a wager's uuid, wager amount)

[tender shard]

it only has a key <> pair

[lost matrix]

A map has no indices anyways

[tender shard]

and for that, you want to loop over the EntrySet, not the keyset

[patent horizon]

that's exactly my point

[tender shard]

loop over the entryset

[tender shard]

        HashMap<String,Integer> map = new HashMap<>();
        for(Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : map.entrySet()) {
            String name = entry.getKey();
            int value = entry.getValue();
        }

this is what you mean right?

[lost matrix]

  Map<String, String> someData = new HashMap<>();

  public void mapForEach() {
    someData.forEach((key, value) -> {

    });
  }

  public void entryForEach() {
    someData.entrySet().forEach(entry -> {
      String key = entry.getKey();
      String value = entry.getValue();
    });
  }

[patent horizon]

no yall

[subtle vector]

Quick question when you make a explosion using .createExplosion() is that explosion an entity?

[young knoll]

No

[patent horizon]

i just wanna show a counter

[young knoll]

Explosions are not an entity

[tender shard]

you must count yourself

[subtle vector]

what are they?

[tender shard]

because as said, a hashmap doesn't have any order like "give me the 2nd element"

[tender shard]

nothing

[young knoll]

They are a point in space that goes boom

[lost matrix]

explosions are not a deterministic object. They are just a set of functionalities.

[sterile token]

Map<String, String> map = Maps.newHashMap<>();

map.forEach((key, value) -> {
  System.out.println("Hashmap key " + key + " has value " + value);
});

[quaint mantle]

We know right

[tender shard]

he wants to do this:

        int currentIndex = 0;
        for(Map.Entry<String,Integer> entry : map.entrySet()) {
            currentIndex++;
            System.out.println(currentIndex);
        }

[young knoll]

I know left

[tardy delta]

map.entrySet().forEach kekw

[tender shard]

few months ago people were always like "why don't you just use normal for loops instead of lambdas / function stuff bla bla" and now everyone's doing the opposite lol

[subtle vector]

how do I tell if an Entity was damaged by an explosion from .createExplosion()

[tardy delta]

few months ago oh

[tender shard]

anyway if someone doesn't know how to implement a counter, they probably should not be recommended to use lambdas

they won't understand what they are I guess

[lost matrix]

lamdas would be tricky here as you cant just increment an integer from outside the lambdas scope.

You would need an AtomicInteger for that

[sterile token]

I have another question, i have a custom item object (save name, colored name and itemstack), a repository manager (which save each custom object). I want to know how i check if exists an object from name that its return on an event. Because my system its broken caused using item name with colors

[lost matrix]

Not really possible unless you are creating the explosions yourself.

[quaint mantle]

You shouldnt rely on item display name as identity

[tender shard]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/entity/EntityDamageEvent.DamageCause.html

just check for Block_Explosion or Entity_Explosion in the entitydamageevent?

[sterile token]

Oh so what i can do ?

[quaint mantle]

Use pdc instead

[sterile token]

Pdc doesnt exists on my version

[young knoll]

L

[lost matrix]

Sure you can detect when it happens. But sadly not which block caused this.

[young knoll]

Use an NBT API or whatever

[quaint mantle]

L

[tender shard]

oh didn't see they asked for that

[sterile token]

oh NBT allright

[lost matrix]

idk

[young knoll]

You would have to save the location of the explosion and then listen for damage events nearby

[sterile token]

NBT its to sign items right?

[tender shard]

wow your version must be ancient lol

[young knoll]

1.8

Obviously

[lost matrix]

oof

[tender shard]

could also be 1.14.0 lol

[young knoll]

Who the heck runs 1.14.0

[sterile token]

How you know?

[quaint mantle]

Wht did i tgink about minecraft pocket edition lol

[tender shard]

all versions older than a year are quite stupid to use imho

[young knoll]

Psychic powers

[quaint mantle]

Download minecraft PE 0.13.0, 1.14.0, 0.15.0, 0.16.0

[sterile token]

Why the heck you can download minecraft PE that would design for cellphone on pc?

[subtle vector]

thx that works

[sterile token]

if you need more help with events you can execute the command:

?jd

And there you will find all the documentation

[tender shard]

how the heck do you code plugins in basic? is there a basic<>java transpiler lol

[young knoll]

I can’t tell if joke or not

🤔

[lost matrix]

lul

[quaint mantle]

bruh

[twin sapphire]

Uh hey alex 😄

[tender shard]

"Basic" okay, basic skills
but then
"Basic, Javascript"
ugh

[young knoll]

Basic JavaScript skills

I guess

[tender shard]

I know, it's so weirdly worded lol

[tender shard]

heyhoo

[sterile token]

Its something called

SPANISH

😡

I say it everytime, everywhere

[quaint mantle]

all i want to know is how to add an object variable to an arraylist<Class> (class = a class i made, not java.lang.class) without casting

[tender shard]

if you have an ArrayList<YourClass>, the list can, obviously, only contains objects extending or implementing YourClass.class

[twin sapphire]

Could anyone please look for Tag.SIGNS in 1.18.1 spigot api? i just have access to some tags, many are missing for me

[young knoll]

You can also do ? Extends your class

[tender shard]

that's the whole point of inheritance, objects, generics etc

[tender shard]

yeah but he wants to add something totally different to it, we already had this a few hours ago

[quaint mantle]

oh so i will make my class implement arraylist

[tender shard]

he was casting ArrayLists to Menu (custom class), casting ItemStacks to Player, etc

[ancient jackal]

what are the benefits of using that over java HashMap<K, V> hm = ... for(K key : hm.keySet()) { V value = hm.get(key); ... }

[lost matrix]

Pls dont

[tender shard]

you don't have to look through the map for the object everytime

[young knoll]

You can’t even implement arraylist

It’s a class

[tender shard]

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

[ancient jackal]

oh, I see

[tender shard]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/Tag.html#SIGNS

what's the problem with that?

[quaint mantle]

then how do i find a solution to my question

[twin sapphire]

thats my problem

i dont have more

[tender shard]

I already told you: learn java

[sterile token]

Isnt possible to have something like this??

public abstract class MyClass {
  
  public abstract List<String> getList();

  public abstract List<String> getList() default Lists.emptyList();
}

[quaint mantle]

and i will keep doing it

[tender shard]

is that decompiled spigot/bukkit?

[tender shard]

yeah so we'll ignore you from now on too

[young knoll]

Looks like it

[tender shard]

have a nice day and go ask on some other discord if you don'T want help

[lost matrix]

We need a bit more lowdown on that.
So you have an object of type Object
And you have a List<T> where T is your own class.
And you want to know how to add this object to the List?

[quaint mantle]

yes

[static finch]

Hello !
i'm new to plugin developpement and i'm trying to implement an API
on my bungeecord 1.18.1 plugin

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/minecord-wiki-api/
that is the documentation

i can't get the Player object and Member Object that the link function require i'm in the onConnect Listener

and i can't do the getServer()

thanks !

[tender shard]

noone can tell you how to drive a car if you don't even know what a wheel/tyre is

[young knoll]

That’s the spiny thing

[lost matrix]

You need to cast the object to T

[young knoll]

That touch road

[sterile token]

This is why i often get mad

[quaint mantle]

but then i get a console error where it is not compatible with arraylist

here let me show u

[lost matrix]

But you can only cast it safely if you checked its type with instanceof first

[quaint mantle]

ok

[sterile token]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[tender shard]

his object isn't of that type, it's something totally different. has no basic knowledge at all, he was casting ItemStacks to Player beforehand. Let me search for his code

[quaint mantle]

@sterile token

[young knoll]

Are you telling me itemstacks aren’t players

[sterile token]

Wait ItemStacks != Player

[tender shard]

^

[quaint mantle]

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

[lost matrix]

Did you just assume an objects type? Triggered.

[twin sapphire]

ah found the problem, my editor is kind of confused...

[sterile token]

alex there is no solution right?

[tender shard]

just make getList() not abstract and return an empty list

[sterile token]

Possible?

[young knoll]

Yes

[sterile token]

But its still an abstract class

Doesnt matter

[young knoll]

Abstract classes can have non abstract methods

[lost matrix]

Alright. So your object is of type ArrayList but you are trying to cast it to a Menu.
Pretty self explanatory. Dont cast an object to a type it is not compatible with.

[sterile token]

OH, holy sh**

Thanks

[tender shard]

public abstract class Test {

    public List<String> getList() {
        return new ArrayList<>();
    }
}

[quaint mantle]

i will try with list instead of arraylist

[tender shard]

public abstract class Test {

    public List<String> getList() {
        return new ArrayList<>();
    }
    
    public class SubTest extends Test {
        @Override
        public List<String> getList() {
            return someOtherList;
        }
    }
}

this is what you want to do, right?

[lost matrix]

Show your code pls. You can not randomly cast objects around.

[tender shard]

I quoted their code here

[lost matrix]

Ah i see.

[tender shard]

oh wait, that's not the class where they are casting the list to menu though

[quaint mantle]

thats a different piece of code

[tender shard]

yeah but it shows us that your Menu class does not extend ArrayList, hence you can't cast it to arraylist

[sterile token]

What do you think?

[quaint mantle]

so i will make it extend arraylist

easy

[lost matrix]

No please.

[tender shard]

yes, just do that

easy

[lost matrix]

Not easy

[young knoll]

Ez clap

[tender shard]

the dude is obviously trolling and even said they will keep ignoring all the "learn basic java" suggestions lol

all they want is someone to fix their class without understanding how java even works

[quaint mantle]

https://paste.md-5.net/maxujizeko.java here 7smile

[lost matrix]

Gets class cast exception -> Simply extends the class and so he can cast anyways

[tender shard]

as said, he also casted an ItemStack to player so he can use getDisplayName() on it

[young knoll]

Why can’t we just cast everything

Stupid strong typing

[buoyant viper]

the Chad java dev move

[quaint mantle]

yeah you know how long that takes, its such a small question, not even an error

[lost matrix]

Alright what method throws the exception

[ancient jackal]

god I'm just gonna cast my String to an int

[quaint mantle]

onEnable

[tender shard]

but what even is your question

[sterile token]

Int integer = Integer.parseInt("10");

[tender shard]

works in C, I guess

[young knoll]

That best way to declare an int

[ancient jackal]

no
int n = (int) "Hello World";

[buoyant viper]

what if i want to cast "ur mom" to an integer? oh woops.... integer overflow exception....

[young knoll]

That’s not even a real exception

You suck

[buoyant viper]

shut the up

[sterile token]

For casting string that contains int, i use that
String -> int

[lost matrix]

Object obj = config.getList("Menus", menus);
MagnificentMenus.menus = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList(obj);

should be

List<Menu> loadedMenus = (List<Menu>) config.getList("Menus", menus);
MagnificentMenus.menus.addAll(loadedMenus);

[quaint mantle]

thanks for actually helping

[ancient jackal]

not a runnable 😡

[sterile token]

Are you okaY!!

[tender shard]

but you can't just cast a ConfigurationSection to a list

[sterile token]

Are you doing your own menu system?

[young knoll]

getList isn’t a section

[quaint mantle]

i am trying

[young knoll]

you can even pass a type to getList to skip the cast

[tender shard]

yeah but his config isn't a list at "Menus"

[young knoll]

Ah

[lost matrix]

This will only work if you saved your menues before using:

config.set("Menus", MagnificentMenus.menus);

and if the Menu class properly implements Serializable.

[young knoll]

ConfigurationSerializable*

[lost matrix]

^ yes that one

[tender shard]

this is the original code they want to use
https://bukkit.org/threads/icon-menu.108342/

[lost matrix]

Havent used it in a while

2012 was that threat written...

[tender shard]

and now they want to magically cast a configurationsection to a List<Menu>

[lost matrix]

🤷

Maybe they can do some bytecode manipulation and let ConfigurationSection extend ArrayList<Menu>
then casting will work

[tender shard]

that's a good idea!

[young knoll]

It’s the material enum all over again

[glossy venture]

yeah that triggers him for some reason

[glossy venture]

it triggers me too

[tender shard]

btw what is the thread even about? "With the new ability to rename items" I am pretty sure anvils were added before 2012

[tender shard]

it triggers everyone

[quaint mantle]

ELEVEN HOURS

[tender shard]

because you have no idea what you are doing and don't want to learn java at all

[quaint mantle]

cool

[tender shard]

that's not even half a day

[glossy venture]

dude, if you want to make it in software engineering, i recommend actually taking the initiative to learn shit instead of going to the first discord server you find to ask for help on 'boilerplate' issues. theres plenty of resources online

[quaint mantle]

i already do freelance developing for haxe lmao

[glossy venture]

you clearly dont know java very well

or i misunderstood

[quaint mantle]

yeah and i dont want to, i just wanna get this plugin done and ill never touch it again

since it has taken so long

[glossy venture]

alright but its still good practice

actually learning stuff

[quaint mantle]

i only do that if i enjoy what i am doing

i dont enjoy java

in fact i hate it

i just want this plugin done and out of my life

[glossy venture]

then dont come here asking us for help on common issues for like 3 hours

[young knoll]

Just pay someone for it then

[quaint mantle]

no one is forcing you to answer

its called a question for a reason

[glossy venture]

thats true

[tender shard]

did you read the channel's topic though?

[glossy venture]

but would you like to be ignored

[ancient jackal]

turn light mode off

[quaint mantle]

bro still thinks im trolling lmao

[glossy venture]

anyways good luck with your plugin ima go sleep

[tender shard]

don't wanna learn java and spigot = not "serious" development

[hexed hatch]

Help I want to do the thing without actually doing the thing

[young knoll]

Me too

[ancient jackal]

Me three

[analog hinge]

I can't find the fortune enchantment in the Enchantment enum

meta.addEnchant(Enchantment.FORTUNE, 100); // something like this

I'm guessing it's under a different name??

[young knoll]

LOOT_BONUS_BLOCKS iirc

[tender shard]

yes

[young knoll]

Or you can use the namespaced key and getByKey

[analog hinge]

oh ty :)

[ancient jackal]

read da docs https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/enchantments/Enchantment.html#LOOT_BONUS_BLOCKS

[analog hinge]

dude I could see the list of enchantment... just didn't know which one it was and there's a lot of them

it's quicker just to ask here

[fossil lily]

Anyone know why this might not be working? Im not getting any errors when I click it, but nothing happens.

Main:

GUI Creator

[tender shard]

does the title equals "Tools"?

Tools != Tools!

[fossil lily]

oh god

i made a typo

thanks for your help

[tender shard]

np

[fossil lily]

ive been staring at it for the past 20 mins lol

[tender shard]

next time just print debug information after every if, then you see where it stops executing

[fossil lily]

good idea

[storm crescent]

How would you update a player in the DedicatedPlayerList?

[young knoll]

Probably a bunch of reflection

[tender shard]

what exactly do you want to do

[storm crescent]

I tried looking in the source code and I cant exactly seem to find where they add the data

[river root]

Check if a player is clicking on a far player

[storm crescent]

I updated the uuid field in the player's Entity class so I want to update them in the player list

[tender shard]

can't you just get the PlayerList#playersByUUID field and change the UUIDs there?

actually I don't see any problem there

Field field = PlayerList.class.getDeclaredField("playersByUUID");
field.secAccessible(true);
Map<UUID, ServerPlayer> map = (cast...) field.get(yourDedicatedServerListObject);
map.put(newUuid,map.get(oldUuid));
map.remove(oldUuid);

sth like this

[glossy venture]

what is an iiod

[tender shard]

typo for uuid

[glossy venture]

oh

[young knoll]

International infested octopus donkey

[glossy venture]

oh yea

forgot about that one

every player has its own international infested octopus donkey

[tender shard]

only in mojang mappings

otherwise they only have "f"

[young knoll]

To pay respects

[storm crescent]

I'll try that, thanks

[tender shard]

what are you going to use it for though?

this will probably break like... everything

[storm crescent]

a character save system

where players can save all plugin data to different characters

[glossy venture]

i geniunely thought it was something tho

[storm crescent]

instead of their original uuid

[tender shard]

but how are you going to load it when they join?

when a player joins, they'll have their original UUID so their normal stats/inv/etc get loaded

then when they leave, it will save their data in the "new" uuid

[young knoll]

Gotta intercept it really early

Like handshake early

[storm crescent]

Would that be blocked by mojang auth?

[young knoll]

No idea

[tender shard]

I don't think this is a good idea at all

[young knoll]

I agree

But I also love crazy ideas

[tender shard]

yeah the idea is interesting 😄

[glossy venture]

how do u choose the fake uuids

to avoid conflicts

with real players

[tender shard]

but it will either break so many things, or be so complicated to do without breaking anything, that you could just instead do a character save system using API instead

[storm crescent]

I'm just too lazy to go in all of my 60 plugins and manually change their data storage tbh

[young knoll]

I mean

Generating a random uuid has a super low chance of conflicting

But it could still happen

[glossy venture]

true

but you do need another data storage to store the fake uuids of a player

then

[tender shard]

yeah but anyway I doubt you can get this working

[glossy venture]

then why not just use that to store the data itself

[tender shard]

the first time you get a player object is in PlayerJoinEvent i guess

and there it's already too late

[storm crescent]

I'm just using a mysql database

[glossy venture]

you can intercept packets

through netty channel pipelines

[tender shard]

yeah but you won't have a serverplayer at that part then

and you need a serverplayer to change the map

[glossy venture]

after starting handshake packet

[storm crescent]

because most plugins save data to the players uuids and making all of my plugins save data properly would be really tedious

[glossy venture]

you assign the uuid

[glossy venture]

ah

[tender shard]

but then it'll will fail online mode thing

[glossy venture]

hm

yeah

[tender shard]

I'd rather do an API plugin that maps original UUID to changed UUID and then yeah, change all your other plugins

that's at least the correct way to do it 😛

[young knoll]

You’d have to have all custom plugins for that tho

[steady sentinel]

localization can go so deep I am not sure where to stop 😄 like plural/non-plural, feminine forms etc.

Hypixel has pretty nice and complex localization. State of the art, I think

and then you have to think of a smart way to do all that without trashing the codebase too much

[young knoll]

I just reference everything as a key in the codebase

And then pass said key through a language system to get the output

[steady sentinel]

one of my pain points have been no compile-time checks of translations keys actually existing 😛

I'll probably do some generator similiar to what android does in form of R.class

[young knoll]

I just took the lazy route and return “missing translation” in that case

[steady sentinel]

yeah that's how it currently works. not a good player experience 😛

[viral crag]

If there is no matching locale you fallback to the default language

[steady sentinel]

sure. but I mean accidently using mispelled translation keys or something

[young knoll]

That’s what I do as well

But the default language may also be missing a translation :p

[viral crag]

Default as in the default for the plugin, not the default for the user

[young knoll]

Yeah

But the default for the plugin can be changed too

It’s probably better to have a clear error rather than it just defaulting to English

Might confuse the user if random English messages are appearing

[viral crag]

You ever play any translated oriental games? That is exactly what happens.

[sterile token]

Yeah really bad translations

Its the same with films

[sterile token]

Enums have posibility to set values?

Let say i have this enum and i want to be able to change the message:

public enum Test {

  Invalid_Permission("message here")
  Invalid_Argument("messaage here")
  
  private final String message;  

  Test(String message) {
    this.message = message;
  }
}

[honest sentinel]

This is my config: https://paste.md-5.net/agoyiteyal.makefile
I get the location in the config by doing this which does not work properly as I only get world and not x, y, and z. I have no errors in the console:

public Location getRegion2() {
        Location loc = new Location(Bukkit.getWorld(arenaConfiguration.getConfig().getConfigurationSection(getSelected()).getString("world")),
                arenaConfiguration.getConfig().getDouble(getSelected()+".region.loc2.x"),
                arenaConfiguration.getConfig().getDouble(getSelected()+".region.loc2.y"),
                arenaConfiguration.getConfig().getDouble(getSelected()+".region.loc2.z"));
        return loc;
    }```
Does anyone know how I may get the location?

[kind hatch]

What does your getSelected() method do?

[young knoll]

You know you can save and load a location directly

[honest sentinel]

I have multiple arenas so getSelected just gets the section for the selected arena

[young knoll]

I believe there is even a getLocation method

[sterile token]

you can do directly:

Location location = new Location();
Config#set("locations.one", location);
Config#set("locations.two", location);

Location locOne = Config#get("locations.one");
Location locTwo = Config#get("locations.two");

[sterile token]

any idea?

[honest sentinel]

Already setting it like that, just tried getting it incorrectly, thank you!

[sterile token]

Your welcome

[wet breach]

have an answer for this

give me a few minutes

[sterile token]

Allrigh tthanks

I really apreciate you frostalf you always helping 😁

[wet breach]

https://github.com/frostalf/ServerTutorial/blob/master/ServerTutorial/src/main/java/pw/hwk/tutorial/enums/Permissions.java#L48-L51

so you can't change the enum per-say but you can manipulate it when putting it into another string object. The link I gave you shows how I do this to allow custom permissions without knowing what those perms are

[sterile token]

So its not possible to set each value?

[wet breach]

well enums are static and final so once set they can't be changed

that is why in the link above, I use another string object to manipulate the enum

it doesn't change the enum, I just use the enum as a base and change the string for the new string object

[sterile token]

It was possible to do what i expected

I think my explanation was really bad

[ancient jackal]

what is the hierarchy and "string..." on lines 18 and 20?

[young knoll]

String... is a varargs

You can pass any number of strings and treat them as an array in the method

[ancient jackal]

oh, does it work for any type including primitives?

like int...

or just Integer...?

[young knoll]

I believe it works with any type

[ancient jackal]

that sounds very useful, thank you haha

[young knoll]

It has to be the last parameter in a method though

[ancient jackal]

that would make sense, I wouldn't even have tried to put it anywhere else lol

[warm light]

How hasPlayedBefore() know is a player joined before?

[wet breach]

so how that method works is if you notice, it has the same name as the enum name

if you specify multiple enums, you can automatically have it tossed into an array

[young knoll]

Probably checks of their player data file exists

[proud forum]

anyone know what the type of particle that comes out of a thrown exp bottle?

[wet breach]

once I have all the enums in an array, I can do validation check in the method below that in the second hasPerm()

[proud forum]

i cannot figure it out for the life of me

[wet breach]

you mean the experience orbs?

[proud forum]

nope

the blue bubbles

[young knoll]

Those are potion swirls

[kind hatch]

A player file is created in the main world folder. It checks to see if it exists.

[proud forum]

they aren't defined in the spigot docs at all

at least i think so, i haven't seen it

[wet breach]

think those are technically areaaffectclouds

[stuck flax]

If I have a config file like this:

locations:
  - loc1
  - loc2

how would I iterate through each location

[wet breach]

grab it as a list

[kind hatch]

ConfigurationSection#getKeys()

[wet breach]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/configuration/ConfigurationSection.html#getStringList(java.lang.String)

[young knoll]

It’s one of the SPELL ones

Probably SPELL_INSTANT

[wet breach]

either getStringList or getList()

[kind hatch]

This was also mentioned earlier, but you can get locations directly to the config using FileConfiguration#getLocation(). If you are wanting to save locations, it's recommended to save them directly.

[wet breach]

there isn't a getLocationList() method

you could however use getList() which grabs the list as a generic object list

and then you can cast it

[young knoll]

There is a getList that takes a type

[kind hatch]

Yes, but you can always iterate over a list of configuration sections.

[wet breach]

it isn't a configuration section

it is a list as they showed

yaml defines lists with the dashes

[kind hatch]

They would need to rewrite it obviously, but I don't think you can even store locations in a list format like that unless you have something custom.

Hence why I suggested using the #getKeys() method from the start.

[young knoll]

Huh there isn’t a getList that takes a type

[wet breach]

you can store them in a list format, you just have to do some manipulation to get it to be a location object when you retrieve it

[young knoll]

Regardless you can just use getList and then cast it to List<Location>

[wet breach]

server tutorial as linked above, stores locations 😛

you can always look through there for an example

[wet breach]

that is what I suggested above lol

[young knoll]

Yeah I thought there was a type that returned a generic

There is for non lists

[wet breach]

eventually there is going to be something I can't link to my plugin for examples XD

[young knoll]

Yes

[wet breach]

doesn't it get a double?

let me look

[valid solstice]

float

it returns a float

but i want to check if its maximum charge

[young knoll]

1.0 is max

[wet breach]

ah right a float. So if I recall, 1.0 is max

[young knoll]

The docs are your friend

[valid solstice]

theres no maximum charge in the docs ://

[young knoll]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/entity/EntityShootBowEvent.html#getForce()

Yes there is

[valid solstice]

o nvm

yup thanks

[wet breach]

anytime it is a float

[warm light]

and what does usercache.json do? there is a expiry date. what happen after that?

[wet breach]

well most of the time, 1.0 is usually the max

[wet breach]

it re-fetches the user info from mojang servers

[warm light]

oh

[wet breach]

that file caches user info from mojang servers since mojang rate limits its api use

most servers don't come close to the limit unless they are doing something dumb like hitting mojang server api like every second or something

[warm light]

Got it

[ancient jackal]

there's probably no difference but to get a stream of an array, is it generally preferred to use Arrays.stream(arr) or Stream.of(arr)

[wet breach]

better to use the first way

However, if you have a list, you could just do List.stream();

[ancient jackal]

true, that's what I do with lists, I just wasn't sure about arrays

[wet breach]

well either way would work for an array, the reason the first way is better is because it makes it clear that you are working with an array

where as the second way, is a generic way of just getting a stream of an object that supports streams regardless if it is an array

[ivory sleet]

Entirely depends on what context

[wet breach]

Well you can only use Arrays.stream() for primitive types and basically Stream.of() for everything else

downside of Stream.of() is that it requires flattening

also Stream.of() is a wrapper for Arrays.stream()

so if you are dealing with ints, doubles or longs, Arrays.Stream() is the way to go

[ancient jackal]

I'll have to look up what flattening is, but thank you for the info

[ivory sleet]

Not really

[ancient jackal]

oh, that's flattening

[ivory sleet]

I mean Stream::of is varargic

[ancient jackal]

why do you say not really? I mean there's IntStream.of() but Arrays.stream() does that too

[wet breach]

here is an example of flattening

        // --------- Using Stream.of() ---------
  
        // to convert int array into Stream
        Stream<int[]> stream = Stream.of(arr);
  
        // ***** Flattening of Stream<int[]> into IntStream *****
  
        // flattenning Stream<int[]> into IntStream
        // using flatMapToInt()
        IntStream intStreamNew = stream.flatMapToInt(Arrays::stream);
  
        // Displaying elements in IntStream
        intStreamNew.forEach(str -> System.out.print(str + " "));

[ivory sleet]

So if you just happen to not have an array to begin with, but a set of known arguments then just use Stream::of and the primitive variants

DaVinki yes but Arrays::stream is not varargic

[ancient jackal]

what is varargic?

I probably know what it is but I've never heard of that before

[ivory sleet]

<T> Stream<T> of(T… elements)

The T…

[ancient jackal]

oh alright

whenever I have a list I just do listName.stream() and so far with arrays I've only done Array.stream(arr)

anytime I've used a stream was when there's already a list or array, is it common to stream without a list or array already?

[wet breach]

well I told you where you can use Arrays.stream() and that is with int[], long[], double[]. Stream.of() is generic and accepts any type

[ancient jackal]

right, I've never used Stream.of() and only plan on it when I need it to be varargic

[wet breach]

or if it doesn't fit the types for the Arrays.stream

[ancient jackal]

Yes

when would an array not fit the types for Arrays.stream?

[wet breach]

if it isn't an array that contains ints, longs or doubles

[ancient jackal]

I've streamed my own types before with that

[wet breach]

are you certain?

because it should have thrown a compile error of no suitable type

[ancient jackal]

yes I'm looking at my code right now

here's a stream that dealt with String objects https://github.com/Grovre/WordleCraft/blob/62a0bc7352c7e4bf5e9c5ee4e9ba0df80878e646/src/main/java/me/grovre/wordlecraft/commands/CommandUtil.java#L114

not an array of primitive types

[wet breach]

getOnlinePlayers() is a collection that implements List or the other way around forget. So that isn't an Arrays.stream() rather List.stream()

[ancient jackal]

you're right

[ancient jackal]

I just streamed an array of a rectangle object

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[ancient jackal]

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

and the output was 1000 lines of different rectangles

[wet breach]

you are using ints

[ancient jackal]

I am using rectangles java Rectangle[] rects = new Rectangle[1000]; for(int i = 0; i < rects.length; i++) rects[i] = new Rectangle();

[wet breach]

which is just an array of ints

[ancient jackal]

it's an array of type Rectangle

[wet breach]

its a 2d array that takes in ints

[ancient jackal]

well if it's thought of that way then isn't every array just an array of primitives at some point, no matter how dimensional they are?

[wet breach]

No, but rectangle literally is just a type of array just like vector is

https://cr.openjdk.java.net/~iris/se/17/latestSpec/api/java.desktop/java/awt/Rectangle.html

so because Rectangle, like vector is an array which only takes in double or ints Arrays.stream() will work

try doing it with char[]

it should throw no suitable type at compile time if you tried with a char array

[ancient jackal]

I changed up my rectangle class to just a random bunch of values and it still works, and afaik arrays can't have multiple types within

class Rectangle {

    UUID uuid1;
    UUID uuid2;
    BigDecimal bigDec;
    Long longOfRect;
    Double doubleD;
    double smallD;

    public Rectangle() {
        Random r = new Random();
        uuid1 = new UUID(r.nextLong(0, Long.MAX_VALUE/2), r.nextLong(Long.MAX_VALUE/2+1, Long.MAX_VALUE));
        uuid2 = new UUID(r.nextLong(0, Long.MAX_VALUE/2), r.nextLong(Long.MAX_VALUE/2+1, Long.MAX_VALUE));
        bigDec = new BigDecimal(r.nextInt(Integer.MIN_VALUE, Integer.MAX_VALUE));
        longOfRect = r.nextLong();
        doubleD = r.nextDouble();
        smallD = r.nextDouble();
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "Rectangle{" +
                "uuid1=" + uuid1 +
                ", uuid2=" + uuid2 +
                ", bigDec=" + bigDec +
                ", longOfRect=" + longOfRect +
                ", doubleD=" + doubleD +
                ", smallD=" + smallD +
                '}';
    }
}```

[loud haven]

You can definitely stream any type of array, doesn't matter what type it is...

[wet breach]

interesting seems they changed it

I was just looking at the javadocs

[loud haven]

It's been like that since Java 8, when streams were introduced.

[wet breach]

Well guess it don't matter anymore then

just use Arrays.stream for your arrays, since the generic way is for unknown types now it seems and not just a generic for things that didn't fit the array stream

[ancient jackal]

will do

[wet breach]

this is why it is handy to always look at documentation 😛

Even us seasoned veterans have to look at it from time to time still as its hard to keep track of everything plus a lot has changed as well XD

[ancient jackal]

so about this... now it's got me thinking. if not, then what is the very bottom of everything?

[wet breach]

depends

if it doesn't fit primitives

then it gets reduced down to object

or string which is not a primitive but treated like one

I mean technically everything eventually gets turned into bytes though since you know ram and all lmao

[ancient jackal]

true

[sterile token]

Why use integer loops?

[ivory sleet]

Why not

[ancient jackal]

the one I used? because you can't change the element of the array with an enhanced loop

[lost matrix]

not quite. T does not cover primitives.
But for most primitives overload methods exists.
However some are excluded like char[] or byte[] (those are covered by the traditional ByteStreams)

[waxen plinth]

valhalla please 😩

[lost matrix]

Didnt really follow that. Are there plans for when this gets incubated?

[quaint mantle]

That wouldnt work with primitive arrays

[waxen plinth]

Not sure what the exact details are but I know that it would allow for generics to include primitives

So you could do List<int>

Which is fucking huge for performance

Primitive boxing has so much overhead

[worldly ingot]

I mean... yeah. Anybody worth anything is probably going to want to get paid lol

Unless you intend on distributing free, open source plugins, or you share a mutual goal of completing some project, you're probably going to have to pay someone to devote time to working on something with you

Partner doing what?

[lost matrix]

For me it was a friend that i learned java together with and shared my passion.
Its hard to get some random person to develop without either a shared vision or compensation.
But you can always search for some motivated unexperienced devs and grow together with them.
Ive seen this countless times where newer devs just come because they want to program something

[wet breach]

🤔

unfortunately I don't deal with LLC's in this fashion since they are not designed for private investing

you are talking about a % of the LLC which is basically an investment/investor. LLC's are not designed for this and require a lot of documents to get this right

S Corps are more better for this

I clearly have

S corps are generally private corporations that have shares already

just because it has shares does not mean those shares are public

[waxen plinth]

don't ask people to effectively do free labor for you

[wet breach]

and I have an S corp

[waxen plinth]

if you're so successful then fucking pay people lol

[wet breach]

doesn't make you special

[waxen plinth]

clearly I'm dumb

"hey I had a really good idea for an app. I don't know how to code but if you code it for me we can split the profits 50/50"

🤡 🤡

You can throw around that word all you want

The bottom line is that you are effectively asking people to do free labor for you

[wet breach]

If you decided to sell your share of the LLC there is jack the other person could do. Where as with an S corp if you wanted to sell your majority share, you actually first must offer to others that have shares first

I am not dumb

[waxen plinth]

Yes, you're giving them the prospect of making money down the road

But nobody's willing to work for that

People need money

[wet breach]

My step mom has a Doctorates in business so I am set 🙂

[waxen plinth]

Potential future gains don't put food on the table, dude

Can you just shut up already

[wet breach]

LLC's can't have stocks

[waxen plinth]

Nobody wants to work with you because you're not offering to pay them, it's that simple

This isn't the place to ask for it either

Go bug people elsewhere thanks

man said thesaurus lmao

you would

you keep saying that

but also

this is a channel for DEVELOPMENT help

like

[wet breach]

All I am saying is I don't deal with LLC's in that fashion because I rather not deal with the headache with what you are proposing or offering because I already know what it entails later down the road. Whether or not you want to get upset with that is on you, I don't care. Doesn't change the fact that what I have stated is true.

[waxen plinth]

asking questions about CODE

so

shut up and leave

[wet breach]

it is easy to create an LLC

not that hard

[waxen plinth]

@worldly ingot please I am begging you to get this clown outta the dev help channel

[wet breach]

because the state said so

[waxen plinth]

I bet this guy does crypto

[wet breach]

you file with the state pay your fees and voila you have an LLC. Setting up an S corp can not be done by yourself fyi where as LLC's can

LLC's can't own stocks S corps can. That means LLC's don't have stocks to give out because there is none

also it is harder to privately invest with LLC's because of this

even banks don't like LLC's very much either 😛

continue on in how you are the only business owner in the world though 🙂

[waxen plinth]

Jesus christ dude can you just shut up

This is not the place for it

At least make a thread or something

This is the channel for asking for coding help

[wet breach]

Please show me the stocks your LLC can give out. How much shares does your LLC own itself?

[waxen plinth]

Not the place to argue about definitions over business words and request free labor

[wet breach]

you said I didn't know anything, and I have told you what LLC's can't have

private shares don't need to be listed

one of the advantages of an S corp

[waxen plinth]

@ancient plank 😭

[wet breach]

I am not mad o.O

just telling you I don't deal with LLC's in the fashion you stated and I told you why

if you were an S corp where you can give shares, I might consider it

the reason for this is if you decide to sell you would have to offer me your shares first or to everyone who has shares as well

LLC's if you sold off your half I couldn't do anything about it even if I was half owner

they are, that is why they require a lot of documentation to just have more then one owner

where as an S corp it is all about the shares

if I own 50% of the shares there is no way you could deny that I do, because you actually have to tell the state how many shares you gave out even if private 🙂

private shares are not public information though

[waxen plinth]

None of this matters lmao

[ancient plank]

brother its 1am

this isn't the place for this conversation

[waxen plinth]

No amount of throwing around business jargon is going to make people want to do free labor and this is a development channel

Does anyone here have intimate knowledge of the temp fly plugin, or has used its API?

[ivory sleet]

Link me

We might be able to help even if we haven’t used the api

Given that the api is straightforward if that makes sense 😅

[nova fossil]

https://github.com/ChiefMoneyBags/TempFly

[lost matrix]

commit messages go brr

[ivory sleet]

🥲

[lost matrix]

https://github.com/ChiefMoneyBags/TempFly/blob/Master/TempFly/src/com/moneybags/tempfly/TempFlyAPI.java

[lost matrix]

What exactly is your concern?

[nova fossil]

I’m looking to have a separate temp fly counter, for flying time from another source. When the other source of temp fly is going on, the original temp fly timer is paused while the other counts down: your source of flight changes, and the current source counts down instead of the other (has priority). It doesn’t seem like the api has a good way to do this, and so I’m trying to figure out the best way to implement it, probably a fork

I would ask the developer, but it doesn’t look like he has a publicly listed discord anywhere

[lost matrix]

setFlightTime(UUID player, double seconds) doesnt that cut it?

removeFlightTime(UUID player, double seconds) or this

When the other source starts counting down you could just add a ton of flight time.
After its ran out you simply restore the original before you added a ton.

[nova fossil]

So how the sources of the flight time count down I want to work differently. The temp flight through the plugin should only count down when you’re flying, the plugin has a setting to handle that. But the other source, I want it to count down absolute, as in hours in real life, not while flying

But your solution would work, I save the flight time before, switch it to infinite while my separate timer runs, and then once it’s over I give their original time back, and keep track of any time that was added during the other source

Ok that’d work I think, abit hacky but that’ll do! Thanks

wdym as an offline player

Bukkit#getOfflinePlayer() should work

[hybrid spoke]

how is it returning null?

afais getOfflinePlayer can't return null

what are you trying to do? @quaint mantle

but you do know that Bukkit#getPlayerBlaBla refers to the server?

just like we said

just that Bukkit already refers to the servers getPlayer- method
https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/bukkit/browse/src/main/java/org/bukkit/Bukkit.java#578

getPlayer just checks the onlineplayers

you are confusing me

you have an exception we can look at?

can you send us the exception & code context?

?paste full code context would be more useful instead of snippets.

[undone axle]

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

[hybrid spoke]

with a CF. hopefully you wait for the result otherwise no wonder its null

refering to CompletableFuture<User> userFuture = userManager.loadUser(uniqueId);

exactly. but going async with a delayed result

[chrome beacon]

Send the entire method

That's not the entire method

?paste Also

[undone axle]

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

[hybrid spoke]

the entire method

just like olivo said

and just like i did before

the entire code context

[chrome beacon]

If you don't want to show your code there isn't much we can do

Good luck figuring that out

[visual tide]

then use vault

perms.has

[hybrid spoke]

for what the hiding? you are literally asking for help but can't provide the full code context

[visual tide]

nah its not hard

you just get ur perms object then its one method

[lost matrix]

Read the api specifications of luckperms. The user is null if there is no data associated with that UUID.
You need to properly configure LuckPerms.

[rotund pond]

https://luckperms.net/wiki/Developer-API-Usage#obtaining-a-user-instance

[lost matrix]

        UserManager userManager = luckPermsApi.getUserManager();
        userManager.loadUser(uuid).thenAcceptAsync(user -> {
          // Access data here
        }

But before that you should always try to access online player data first.

Just looked at your code. This is exactly what you are currently doing.

[maiden thicket]

me always using whencomplete and not looking into any other completablefuture methods

[muted sand]

if i can't return anything from tasks, how would I get a player's data asynchronously and work with that?
I used to use nested runTask inside of runTaskAsynchronously, but I don't wanna bother reading that 🤡

[maiden thicket]

completable future

[muted sand]

oh

[maiden thicket]

public CompletableFuture<PlayerDataOrWhateverObjectYouNeed> getData(...)
{
    CompletableFuture<PlayerDataOrWhateverObjectYouNeed> future = new CompletableFuture<>();
    Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskAsynchronously(plugin, () -> {
      future.complete(PlayerDataOrWhateverObjectYouNeed object);
    });
}```

[muted sand]

oo tyy

wait how do I actually return that? Missing return statement

return Bukkit.getScheduler()...?

[quiet ice]

What do you want to accomplish

[muted sand]

I am just trying to return my player data async

[eternal oxide]

You don't return it, you call whatever method needs it sync

[muted sand]

oh

then how would i work with it-

[quiet ice]

Or Work with consumers

[eternal oxide]

^

[muted sand]

alrighty then

[quiet ice]

Because otherwise you'd need to block, which has the same effect of doing it sync

[muted sand]

yea ;-;

[quiet ice]

One of the main reasons condem Futures

[muted sand]

it would block the method that called it right? and not the entire program?

using consumers

[quiet ice]

Nope, consumers wouldn't Block anything If used right

[muted sand]

then how would I get data if they wouldn't block the method that executed it-?

so something like this-? https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/asynchronously-working-with-a-database/

[maiden thicket]

@muted sand return future

[lost hound]

I finally made my plugin

I had a doubt

This is the code of my main .java file

and i made another java file

[west bone]

is there any way to calculate body rotation?

[sacred mountain]

hey hwo would i cancel a repeating task outside of the method

public void startRandomItems() {
        Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(plugin, () -> {

        }, 0, 100);
    }

this is just the base for the repeating task

[eternal oxide]

Look at the return from scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(

[sacred mountain]

int taskID;
public void start() {
  taskID = Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(..);
}
public void stop() {
 Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().cancelTask(taskID);
}```

what do i put in the brackets in scheduesync repeatng task tho

its not working for me

[eternal oxide]

a BukkitRunnable

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/scheduler/BukkitScheduler.html#scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(org.bukkit.plugin.Plugin,org.bukkit.scheduler.BukkitRunnable,long,long)

[sacred mountain]

so not this

[eternal oxide]

you could use a lambda, if you wanted

[sacred mountain]

public void startRandomItems() {
        new BukkitRunnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                
            }
        }.runTaskTimer(plugin, 0L, 60L);
    }```

how would i start and stop that hwen i wanted tho

[eternal oxide]

store the task

[sacred mountain]

using an int

i previously did that but its not working

        taskID = Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(plugin, this::startRandomItems, 0L, 60L);

?

How to set keys with periods in them with FileConfigurations

[mint mesa]

Hey folks. im using LiteBans' API, in order to make my own history command with red stained glass. However, the API lists the history from oldest to most recent. Is there anyway I can make it go from most recent to oldest? I tried using a config file to save it all, then sort it inside the config, then delete it all again, but that didnt work out

while (rs.next()) {
                        reason = rs.getString("reason");
                        bannedByUuid = rs.getString("banned_by_uuid");
                        long time = rs.getLong("time");
                        long until = rs.getLong("until");
                        id = rs.getLong("id");
                        active = rs.getBoolean("active");

                       

                        /*
                        Date date1 = new Date(time);
                        Date date2 = new Date(until);

                        SimpleDateFormat df2 = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy, HH:mm:ss");
                        bannedAt = df2.format(date1);
                        bannedUntil = df2.format(date2);




                        ItemStack banGlass = new ItemStack(Material.STAINED_GLASS_PANE, 1, (short)14);
                        ItemMeta banMeta = banGlass.getItemMeta();
                        ArrayList<String> banLore = new ArrayList<>();
                        banLore.add(ChatColor.GRAY + "Reason: " + reason);
                        // Player moderator = Bukkit.getPlayer(bannedByUuid);
                        System.out.println(bannedByUuid);
                        banLore.add(ChatColor.GRAY + "Punished at: " + bannedAt + " GMT");
                        banLore.add(ChatColor.GRAY + "Expire Date: " + bannedUntil + " GMT");

                        banMeta.setLore(banLore);
                        banGlass.setItemMeta(banMeta);


                        inv.setItem(inv.firstEmpty(), banGlass);
                        */
                    }```

[glossy venture]

Where is the api usage

But maybe you can collect them and then sort them

Like collect all ban info in ArrayList, sort them and then put them in the gui

[mint mesa]

CompletableFuture.runAsync(() -> {
            String uuid = String.valueOf(target.getUniqueId());
            String query = "SELECT * FROM {bans} WHERE uuid=?";
            try (PreparedStatement st = Database.get().prepareStatement(query)) {
                st.setString(1, uuid);
                try (ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery()) {
                    while (rs.next()) {```

[glossy venture]

Ah

[glossy venture]

But try this

You can make a record class with all info

And then sort a list of them you collected

[tepid monolith]

I'm using Lite LightSpigot and a CustomGapple plugin and I'm facing an issue.
So basically what the plugin does is, when you eat a Gapple, it cancels the PlayerConsume event and then takes 1 Gapple from your inventory then gives you the specific effects you intended earlier.
Now the issue is, the yellow hearts which were added to you because of Gapple's Absorption effects, don't show up in your hotbar! No matter what amplifier the effect is.
It was working fine on normal 1.8.8 Paper.
What do you guys think is causing the issue and how may I fix it?

[visual tide]

LightSpigot is probably causing the issue

:))

[quaint mantle]

[tender shard]

wtf is LightSpigot

and wtf is a Gapple

[visual tide]

[tepid monolith]

any idea why?

[grim ice]

Store in a data structure

then reverse it

[cobalt tinsel]

halp

[grim ice]

or make an ArrayDeque

and loop, then add()

then you pollLast();

actually nvm dont do that

add it in an arraylist, then Collections.reverse(arrayList);

[visual tide]

just use normal spigot and not some random fork

[tender shard]

wtf even is lightspigot, there's nothing on google

use spigot or paper
