[livid tundra]

for testing purposes

[floral pewter]

You could probably set player metadata, or use a database

[young knoll]

^

Actually I believe you have to delete the player data file

[livid tundra]

ok

[floral pewter]

If it's for testing purposes, you could also just use true in whatever if statement you're using

[livid tundra]

k

[floral pewter]

Do true/false respectively

Both are very valid approaches

[strong quartz]

What would be the best way of doing something like this in a config file:

kits:
  - kit1:
      permission: "kits.kit.kit1"
      cooldown: "3d"

its fine I parse that a different way

[floral pewter]

Could you elaborate further?

This is already in YAML

[strong quartz]

Like how can I make the kits configurable so you can add more

but still access permissions and cooldown

[floral pewter]

kits:
  - kit1:
      permission: "kits.kit.kit1"
      cooldown: "3d"
  - kit2:
      permission: "kits.kit.kit2"
      cooldown: "3d"

[strong quartz]

I was looping through the "kits" StringList but it didn't seem to work

maybe I was doing it wrong if that looks correct

[floral pewter]

This is a dictionary, not an array

You need to loop through the keys, and then recurse into each

[strong quartz]

hm ok

I will further look into it

yes that's what I had

but I can't seem to loop through it like I wanted

[quiet ice]

this works?

Hm, let's see

?stash

[undone axle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/

[strong quartz]

    private static String getCooldownType(KitsPlugin plugin, Player player) {
        List<String> kits = plugin.config.getStringList("kits");
        for (String kit : kits) {
            String permission = plugin.config.getString("kits." + kit + ".permission");

            if (permission == null) continue;

            if (player.hasPermission(permission)) {
                String duration = plugin.config.getString("ranks." + kit + ".cooldown");

                if (duration.contains("s")) {
                    return "s";
                } else if (duration.contains("m")) {
                    return "m";
                } else if (duration.contains("hr")) {
                    return "hr";
                } else if (duration.contains("d")) {
                    return "d";
                } else {
                    continue;
                }
            }
        }

        return "";
    }

that is just getting the cooldown type

here is getting the cooldown duration

private static int getBanDuration(AppleLifesteal plugin, Player player) {
        List<String> kits = plugin.config.getStringList("kits");
        for (String kit : kits) {
            String permission = plugin.config.getString("kits." + kit+ ".permission");
            String durationType = null;

            if (permission == null) continue;

            if (player.hasPermission(permission)) {
                String duration = plugin.config.getString("kits." + kit+ ".duration");

                if (duration.contains("s")) {
                    durationType = "s";
                } else if (duration.contains("m")) {
                    durationType = "m";
                } else if (duration.contains("hr")) {
                    durationType = "hr";
                } else if (duration.contains("d")) {
                    durationType = "d";
                } else {
                    continue;
                }

                try {
                    return Integer.parseInt("duration".replace(durationType, ""));
                } catch (NumberFormatException exc) {
                    return 0;
                }
            }
        }

        return 0;
    }

always returns 0

[quiet ice]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/bukkit/browse/src/main/java/org/bukkit/configuration/MemorySection.java#455 probably not

[young knoll]

There’s also getMapList

[misty current]

can I make the block a player is looking at clickable? (ie makes the client play the hand animation)

[quiet ice]

I mean, you are probably looking for getKeys

[misty current]

like if someone were to try and click on an iron door

[young knoll]

You can use the interact event and swingMainHand

Or swingOffHand

[misty current]

yes but it would play only once

wouldn't it

[young knoll]

Yes?

You always swing your arm when mining a block

[misty current]

i wanted to keep the animation going as long as the player is right clicking

[young knoll]

Well the event fires every tick if they hold right click

So

[misty current]

okay thanks

[tall dragon]

imagine eating

[simple anvil]

i was getting help in a diffrent server
so this is not my clip/video
but is this a bug

[young knoll]

We can’t see your code

[quiet ice]

From the looks of it you have plenty of cheats active, so doubt it

[young knoll]

So we have no idea what’s going on

[simple anvil]

@EventHandler
    public void onSneak(PlayerToggleSneakEvent event) {
        Player player = event.getPlayer();
        Bukkit.broadcastMessage("Sneaking: " + player.isSneaking());
    }

[simple anvil]

how do i have alot of cheats active

also if i change the event to PlayerMoveEvent the output will chagne

[young knoll]

The event runs before they actually sneak

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/player/PlayerToggleSneakEvent.html#isSneaking()

[quiet ice]

Given to how most of these mods behave, they should be classified as hacks/cheats

[young knoll]

Lol?

[simple anvil]

t h is is plugin

not moid

[quiet ice]

All of them

[young knoll]

I see a clock, a compass, and an arrow counter

[quiet ice]

Yes, that is an unfair advantage and nullifies the reason to have a clock

[young knoll]

Who uses clocks

[tall dragon]

all of which can be accessed in vanilla. just through more annoying means

[simple anvil]

what about player move

[young knoll]

What about it

[quiet ice]

You could just flip the boolean to get the state after the sneaking, it's not that hard to do that

[young knoll]

Or use the method I sent

That’s part of the event

[quiet ice]

Probably better

[simple anvil]

on player move its the oppasite

[young knoll]

Well yeah

If they are sneaking when they move, then they are sneaking

[simple anvil]

what about player sneak

yea

[dusk flicker]

https://tenor.com/view/sneks-the-sneks-solsneks-snek-snek-nft-gif-23488374

also how to i use player.getNearByEntitys

[dusk flicker]

check the docs

?jd-s

[undone axle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot

[simple anvil]

getNearbyEntities(double x, double y, double z)

how would i make it a 30 block radius

[dusk flicker]

read

[young knoll]

15 to each

[dusk flicker]

https://cdn.rackdevelopment.tech/img/acYv64Crzf.png

[simple anvil]

i did
1/2???

[dusk flicker]

half of whatever the box you want to be

so if you want 30, 15; as Coll said

[simple anvil]

so 15, 15, 15

[dusk flicker]

yes, if you want it in every axis

[simple anvil]

and it will output all the entities to the console?

[dusk flicker]

No? It will give you a list of entities, as it says

[young knoll]

No it’ll return them in a list

[simple anvil]

how do i send the list?

yea that one was coming for me

thanks

[misty current]

why does intellij warn me about using optionals as a field?

is there any reason why i should not?

[wary harness]

any one can explane me how would I get heads with skins for players which never playerd before

to generate base64

code

should I get texture from mojang server

or https://mc-heads.net/

some one could point me to some spigot tutorial

because I got in problems gui opening to long because heads can't be loaded from mojang data base

[patent horizon]

is it safe to blind cast a HumanEntity to Player?

[young knoll]

Afaik, yes

[misty current]

it should be, but if some plugin implements humanentity for any reason, you might get some troubles

i'd suggest putting an instanceof check

[patent horizon]

alr

[red sedge]

is there anyway i can sort the list of configuration values without making the them objects?

so like

the x value has price in it

and i want to sort the values by the price value in the configuration

[arctic moth]

anyone know wtf just happened and why there are a ton of invisible falling blocks

btw is there a way to get the blocks in a spherical radius (while im getting help for this lol)

[ancient jackal]

with some maths

[floral pewter]

int radius = 5;
List<Location> sphere = new ArrayList<>();
for (int x = -radius; x <= radius; x++) {
    for (int y = -radius; y <= radius; y++) {
        for (int z = -radius; z <= radius; z++) {
            Location blockPos = origin.clone().add(new Vector(x, y, z));
            if (!blockPos.getBlock().getType().isAir() && origin.distance(blockPos) <= radius) {
                sphere.add(blockPos);
            }
        }
    }
}

[young knoll]

You can compare the distanceSquard from the block to the center

[ancient jackal]

this is the maths

[arctic moth]

thx

[young knoll]

Ew .distance

[floral pewter]

Fight me

[quiet ice]

Yeah, use distanceSquared

[floral pewter]

😉

[arctic moth]

so why is this doing this

this is the error

and https://paste.md-5.net/iwadavoqew.java is the code

i dont understand why its getting an infinite number

and where

[young knoll]

MiscManager line 52

[arctic moth]

its literally count++ lol u sure?

its adding 1 to a number

[young knoll]

That’s what the error says

[arctic moth]

huh

[chrome beacon]

Make sure the code you are running is up to date

[arctic moth]

it is

[chrome beacon]

Then the error wouldn't point to count++

[arctic moth]

or does it

reloaded, but im pretty sure its the same

btw this is being spammed

[young knoll]

Line 56 now

You need to learn to read stack traces

[arctic moth]

ik xD

ok its probably my shitty vector code

multiplying

entity.setVelocity(block.getLocation().toVector().subtract(entity.getLocation().toVector()).multiply(1/(10 - power)).normalize());

[eternal night]

I mean normalizing the vector should prevent this ?

[arctic moth]

ye

[eternal night]

euclidean product goes down to 1 which should be fine

but eehh

[arctic moth]

so why this not working lol

btw if it helps, the power im using is 5

so its multiplied by 0.2

so why is it freaking out and making invisible falling blocks

and erroring

[arctic moth]

the invisible blocks seem to be client side

[young knoll]

I bet it’s multiplying by 0

If power is an int

[arctic moth]

lol

[cobalt tinsel]

i need help

[young knoll]

Granted multiplying by 0 still shouldn’t be an issue

[cobalt tinsel]

im making killstreaks and i want to send a chain of messages 1 by 1

with 1s of delay between messages

cuz

if i do

[young knoll]

?scheduling

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/scheduler-programming/

[cobalt tinsel]

thanks

k so

new BukkitRunnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
Bukkit.broadcastMessage("Mooooo!");
}
}.runTaskTimer(plugin, 20L * 10L /*<-- the initial delay /, 20L * 5L /<-- the interval */);

if i want to send 3 messages

i need to put the same code

with different text?

[arctic moth]

realizes that im not connected to wifi

wait how is discord working then

xD

[young knoll]

Make a queue of the messages and then poll from the queue each time

[cobalt tinsel]

how?

[young knoll]

When the queue is empty, cancel the task

[cobalt tinsel]

new BukkitRunnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
Bukkit.broadcastMessage("Mooooo!");
Bukkit.broadcastMessage("Mooooo!");

Bukkit.broadcastMessage("Mooooo!");

}
}.runTaskTimer(plugin, 20L * 10L /*<-- the initial delay /, 20L * 5L /<-- the interval */);

[arctic moth]

pull*

[cobalt tinsel]

like that?

[arctic moth]

why

lol

[cobalt tinsel]

idk im asking

[arctic moth]

no

its not

[young knoll]

No, poll

[cobalt tinsel]

how? :c

[young knoll]

Poll is the method to retrieve an element from a queue

[arctic moth]

oh

[cobalt tinsel]

how can I use poll

bro I know about java

[young knoll]

Specifically, learn about queues

[cobalt tinsel]

but not, spigot

[young knoll]

Queues are not a spigot concept

[cobalt tinsel]

im alr learning java

didn't reached queues

im on Arrays

lol

[young knoll]

I mean I guess you could use an array too

And just increment the index each iteration

[arctic moth]

new BukkitRunnable() {
int count = 0;
@Override
public void run() {

count++;
if(count > listofmsgs.size()) {

idk

lol

[arctic moth]

*>=

@cobalt tinsel

that might not work but try it ig

[cobalt tinsel]

no

i don't think so

[arctic moth]

lol

[cobalt tinsel]

but

the problem is

i don't need to cancel

cuz my runnable it's inside of a switch

so I just need to send the messages with delay

[young knoll]

You still need to cancel it

[arctic moth]

btw listofmsgs is new ArrayList<>() and add stuff

[cobalt tinsel]

1s between message

[young knoll]

Otherwise it’ll go on forever

[cobalt tinsel]

Ikkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Im just saying

that cancelling it, it's not the problem

[cobalt tinsel]

or Arrays.asList

[arctic moth]

same thing

[cobalt tinsel]

yeah

but it prefer 2nd one

[woeful crescent]

is there any way to call EntityLiving.heal using the API?

[cobalt tinsel]

wdym

to check health?

[woeful crescent]

no

to heal a player with a cause, event call, etc.

as if it actually happened

entityliving.heal does that

[cobalt tinsel]

oh, well make an if

[woeful crescent]

no like

using a regain reason, everything like that

just everything that the server does

[cobalt tinsel]

any example?

[woeful crescent]

public method in EntityLiving

[cobalt tinsel]

oh

[woeful crescent]

i could just copy it..

but i dont really want to

[arctic moth]

what ide is that

[woeful crescent]

intellij idea

[cobalt tinsel]

intellij

[woeful crescent]

with gradianto natural theme

[cobalt tinsel]

you can tell by looking at it

[arctic moth]

lol green theme

[sharp mango]

how do i export my mc plugins from eclipse into minecraft?
i made my own server which is hosted on my wifi network but i dont know how to export plugins into the server

can someone help me

[arctic moth]

thought so

[arctic moth]

export them as jars and put them in the plugins folder

[sharp mango]

i tried that

and then when i go into server and do /pl to see plugins, i cant see the one i created

so...

[young knoll]

You’re probably better off just copying that code

[cobalt tinsel]

new BukkitRunnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
Bukkit.broadcastMessage(CC.translate(Arrays.asList(
"",
ChatColor.YELLOW + "[☢] A Tactical Nuke is coming!"),
ChatColor.YELLOW + "10 seconds until explotion",
ChatColor.YELLOW + "9 seconds until explotion",
ChatColor.YELLOW + "8 seconds until explotion",
ChatColor.YELLOW + "7 seconds until explotion",
ChatColor.YELLOW + "6 seconds until explotion",
ChatColor.YELLOW + "5 seconds until explotion",
ChatColor.YELLOW + "4 seconds until explotion",
ChatColor.YELLOW + "3 seconds until explotion",

));

                        this.cancel();

            }.runTaskTimer(plugin, 20L * 10L /*<-- the initial delay */, 20L * 5L /*<-- the interval */);

all of that messages will

be

insta sent

[arctic moth]

ahh my eyes i just changed my theme to a different one and now its stuck in light theem

lol one dark theme be like

[cobalt tinsel]

how can I add a delay on tht

[tall dragon]

well dont send them all at once.

[cobalt tinsel]

how

[arctic moth]

runnable

[cobalt tinsel]

oh wait

[arctic moth]

nvm

[cobalt tinsel]

i think i can do sth

ah no

nvm

[cobalt tinsel]

that's a runnable

[arctic moth]

when ur logger.info is on line 69

[tall dragon]

Bukkit.broadcastMessage("[☢] A Tactical Nuke is coming!");
        new BukkitRunnable() {
            int count = 10;

oh

that will be it?

nice!

[tall dragon]

this could be a way to do it yea

[cobalt tinsel]

oh k

thanks

[young knoll]

Explotion

[cobalt tinsel]

@Override
public void run() {
Bukkit.broadcastMessage(count + " seconds until explotion");
count-=10;

if i do that

isntead of count--

it will be better right?

[tall dragon]

that will subtract 10 from count

[cobalt tinsel]

yea

[tall dragon]

idk if you want that

[cobalt tinsel]

yea it's fine

[tall dragon]

well then do that

[cobalt tinsel]

bc

[livid tundra]

how do I use the map from the config maplist

[cobalt tinsel]

adding a chain of messages will be harder

[young knoll]

It’s a List of maps

I believe it’s specifically List<Map<String, Object>>

[livid tundra]

but when I use config.getmaplist, the maps I get in the list are Map<?,?>

[young knoll]

Yes

But you can always cast them

[livid tundra]

just to make sure, casting is (object to cast to(value)), right?

[young knoll]

Map<String, Object> newMap = (Map<String, Object>) map

Your ide can add the cast for you if you just define the type

[livid tundra]

thanks!

[cobalt tinsel]

last question

[sly trout]

hey guys would Gson be able to save the data object to a file ?

https://gyazo.com/546455683b06adae8bf9c1e46a2fce5c

this is the class

[quaint mantle]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6856937/gson-custom-serializer-in-specific-case

[fierce swan]

So I'm using Jackson to save data and at any point in time when I try to save data I can but as soon as I go to stop my server it says this. My onDisable function contains the same function call that saves data as the command so it's not that, but I think it's smth to do with how I shaded it?

Here's my pom.xml: https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/runozeteda.xml

[fierce swan]

Keep in mind this error only happens sometimes, it's more often than not but it's not all the time

I've tried so many different solutions and have been trying to fix this for weeks

[sly trout]

It doesn't say how it works with an ArrayList<ItemStack>

Inside of an object

Because obj.addproperty only works with string number and boolean

[fierce swan]

Notice the class in question is com/uhmily/scovilleplugin/shaded/com/fasterxml/jackson/databind/ObjectWriter so I would follow the normal solution of removing a corrupted jar from my local repository but..when I run mvn -X package it sees and processes it just fine

[vocal cloud]

Ran mvn clean as well?

[fierce swan]

Yep

I'm trying deleting just jackson-databind from my local repository and ig we'll see if it errors at all again

[cobalt tinsel]

hey

how could I remove 5 hearths to nearby players

[cobalt tinsel]

oh thakns

alr did it

[vocal cloud]

Nearby entities is cleaner just use it

[cobalt tinsel]

k

[cobalt tinsel]

like this?

for (Player p : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()) {
List<Entity> nearbyentities=player.getNearbyEntities(10, 10, 10);
if(nearbyentities instanceof Player) {
double health=((Player) nearbyentities).getHealth();
((Player) nearbyentities).setHealth(health - 10.0);
}

            }

[vocal cloud]

I suppose if the goal is to make it so that every player within the defined radius takes 10 points of damage

[cobalt tinsel]

Yes

[cobalt tinsel]

It should work right?

[young dome]

What is the cause of this problem? It is quite occasional, does not leave any additional information apart from a NPE in the server console (nothing client log)

I did some research but in vain

[wet breach]

does it only happen when you disconnect?

as in you quit the game

[young dome]

It doesn't happen when I log out, I think it's because of my scoreboard packets, however, I'm not sure what I'm saying because there is no problem with the score packets I send when the player logs in for the first time, maybe a packet that the decoder can't decode It doesn't happen when I log out, I think it's because of my scoreboard packets, however, I'm not sure what I'm saying because there is no problem with the score packets I send when the player logs in for the first time, maybe a packet that the decoder can't decode

[sullen marlin]

DO NOT USE PACKETS FOR SCOREBOARDS

[frosty geyser]

lol

[young dome]

it avoids flashing! Bukkit does too many things, it doesn't go straight to the point! And, I don't really think that's the problem, it's more the decoder of the player's channel that does shit in my opinion

[young knoll]

Lol you can avoid flashing with prefixes and suffixes

[young dome]

That's not the problem, the flashing is more due to the fact that by passing through bukkit, there are more things done to the scoreboard, things that are sometimes useless in some cases of use, and this extra processing causes flashing

[young knoll]

That’s

Not how things work

But yes bukkit does make sure to send all your scoreboard data off to China

[young dome]

Even you admit that xd

So, packets are very good in this case to send directly what we want

[young knoll]

You do realize it doesn’t matter how much processing Bukkit does to the scoreboard

[vocal cloud]

If you make a new scoreboard every tick then you'll get flashing.

[young knoll]

In the end it’s still just sending a packet

Bukkit could piss around with the scoreboard for a half hour and that still wouldn’t cause flashing

[young dome]

Fortunately for me, I don't do it every time I tick

[wet breach]

I mean technically you can do everything with packets if you really wanted, doesn't mean it is the best way. However, just like the server when a player joins the client is also initiatlizing stuff too and sending things too early causes issues on both sides.

[young knoll]

Just a half hour delay

[vocal cloud]

It only flashes if you make a new one. Updating an existing scoreboard shouldn't

[young knoll]

Changing entries can cause it to flash on slower connections

Probably because the remove packet for the old entry and the add packet for the new one get split up

[young dome]

Yes but, the things that I send and that obviously crash a client / 3 in a random way are not sent at all at the beginning even rather in the middle

[young knoll]

But you can just use prefix and suffix for that

[ancient plank]

my scoreboard doesn't flash

[young knoll]

Plenty of non flashing scoreboards have been made with the API

[wet breach]

well you have your answer in what the issue is, and that is sending scoreboards via packets

either just accept that packets can get mangled

[young knoll]

But it’s faster!!!1

[wet breach]

or use the api

at least with the API if a packet gets mangled it will get resent

[young dome]

This is not the problem in my opinion, as I said earlier there was no problem before with the same system

[wet breach]

obviously there is a problem if you are complaining about clients being disconnected and the issue being related to your scoreboard

[young dome]

Yes there is a problem but I doubt it is related to the scoreboard

[wet breach]

Most IO problems occur because of someone messing with packets. Unless you are sending packets directly for everything else as well, the only thing you stated you directly send packets for is the scoreboard

You can disagree what everyone else is saying in what the problem is, doesn't mean that isn't the problem. Especially when the owner of Spigot even stated that you shouldn't send scoreboard stuff via packets directly.

[young knoll]

I mean we’ve had an API for many years

[wet breach]

So either you know better then everyone else here, which wouldn't make sense because you came here for help or everyone else here is correct on what the issue is

if you don't want to change how you are doing scoreboards that is fine no one is forcing you to do anything, just that you need to accept that clients getting disconnected is just a thing that will happen every now and then

[next stratus]

Is it bad to decompile a premium plugin just so I can work out how to use the api if they don't give documentation? Like I won't share code I just wanna work out what's going on

[sullen marlin]

no, this is just wrong

the API is literally a wrapper around packets

do what you do with packets with the api and the result is the same

[worldly ingot]

You, sir, can do whatever you'd like on your own computer.

[next stratus]

I mean I gotta try and add support for a plugin but the dev won't even give api docs... 😔

He even heavily obfuscated the api

[young knoll]

The dev will be informed and you will be collected by the men in black within 13 minutes

Who tf obfuscates an API

[next stratus]

The dev who charges $20 per plugin and you need all 5 or 6 of them to work together

$35 my bad

[young knoll]

So it’s from mcm

Because that’s above the spigot price cap

[next stratus]

Yeah it is mcm kids are a different breed

[young knoll]

Mcm moment

also spigot doesn't allow premium plugins to require addons to work either

Excuse me, my intention was not to hurt you, I was just giving a different hypothesis so that we all have as many elements as possible to again issue new hypotheses of why and how these events occur

[wet breach]

I am not hurt, just many people come here for help but then refuse that help or instead refuse to accept what everyone is saying as true, which is counter intuitive to the purpose they come here to begin with.

[hybrid spoke]

frostalf is always hurt

[young dome]

You seem angry all the same, my intention was not bad, I just wanted to make several hypotheses in order to determine all the causes that could have caused this event.

[young knoll]

Did you shade Jackson yourself

Did you relocate

Changing the package to avoid conflicts

Maven or gradle?

https://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-relocation.html

You should

[wet breach]

relocating is part of shading. It helps to avoid conflicts when there is multiple versions because the package path is the path that gets put on the classpath. If there is multiple versions, the version that gets used is which ever gets loaded/registered first.

it should be standard practice when shading that you relocate dependencies you actually need even more so if its version dependent

here is an example of how to do relocating
https://github.com/frostalf/ServerTutorial/blob/master/ServerTutorial/pom.xml#L157-L204

also shows how to exclude transitive dependencies from shading too

had a problem at one point with things wanting to get shaded in that I didn't specify so I forced maven to not shade those things in lmao

[vocal cloud]

Holy exclude batman

[wet breach]

I never fixed the duplicate bukkit ones lmao

I did that out of frustration if I remember right because bukkit kept getting shaded in XD

was really annoying, but all those excludes were the dependencies shaded into bukkit

[wet breach]

that means the dependency was compiled with a higher version of java then what you are compiling with

either use a higher java version, or use a dependency that supports the java version you are compiling with

hey i am trying to encode a textcomponent with gson but i got this error
java.lang.reflect.InaccessibleObjectException: Unable to make field int java.awt.Color.value accessible: module java.desktop does not "opens java.awt" to unnamed module @3444d69d

any idea?

[young knoll]

You’ll need a custom serializer

[wide coyote]

    public byte[] encode(T message) {
        ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        try (Writer writer = new OutputStreamWriter(out, StandardCharsets.UTF_8)) {
            this.gson.toJson(message, this.type.getType(), writer);
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return out.toByteArray();
    }

[wide coyote]

i found https://github.com/ATLauncher/ATLauncher/commit/1d5f4377fe888bf0d257a0e8d444c06b5d74d55e and tried it but it just make the error bigger and incomprehensible

maven compiler plugin has source and target section you can change it

and project structure > project > project sdk if needed

[young knoll]

I have an example for a location serializer

They aren’t too complicated

how can i fix it

[young knoll]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[young knoll]

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

That’s an example adapter for Location

Color should be much simpler

Huh, I have a typo in that :p

[wide coyote]

yes but im not just trying to encode a color

i am trying to encode a textcomponent

which has color in itself

i mean ChatColor has Color*

[young knoll]

Yes, making an encoder for that should work

Otherwise you need to make one for ChatColor

Or possibly one for component

[wide coyote]

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

[young knoll]

You can’t use gson.toJson in your encoder

That’s kind of the point of the encoder, to tell that method how to store something

[vestal moat]

    }

    @EventHandler
    public void onPlayerJoin(PlayerJoinEvent e) {
        getServer().getScheduler().runTaskLater(this, () -> {
            ByteArrayDataOutput out = ByteStreams.newDataOutput();
            out.writeUTF("moduledisable");
            out.writeUTF("{\"modules\":[\"packet-canceller\"]}");
            e.getPlayer().sendPluginMessage(this, "testclient:main", out.toByteArray());

idk how related this is to development but i feel this chat is the best place to put it. So im using a windows PC with intelij to code spigot plugins when I try to compile the plugin my anti virus (mcafee which came pre-installed) says "we have stopped something malicious" i cant exactly remember the message but it was saying something about "fileless threats" does anyone know why this is happening?

FYI its not too big of a problem as the file does compile into a .jar but i just want to know why its happening and should i be concerned

[sullen mica]

It's probably happening because McAfee is terrible. Just uninstall it. Having only Windows Defender is the best option. Any other anti virus software will just potentially interfere with it. You don't really need a custom anti virus anymore nowadays unless you click on every ad you can spot online.

[sharp saffron]

so you think its just a false alarm basically?

[sullen mica]

Yes. You get countless of them with anti viruses like these.

are u able to retrieve your itemstack from the file properly

[midnight shore]

i can't even save it, i didn't made the retrieve part yet

[sharp flare]

u using yml for it?

[sharp flare]

the first one should do it ig, as long as the file is being written properly and aint blank after executing the save method

[midnight shore]

i don't have any file because whenever it tries to save the item it throws an error

and it doesn't save anything

also i think its a problem with player head data because as you can see in the error it says something about SkullMeta

[midnight shore]

.

[sharp flare]

have you made a method where it makes the yml and loads/save it #onEnable()

[sharp flare]

thats from the spigot guide and I used it for my backpacks that saves the contents

[midnight shore]

so basicallly there is a problem creating the file?

[sharp flare]

if it doesn't exist in the first place and you're trying to save to it then might be it

[midnight shore]

what does saveResource method do?

[sharp flare]

backpacks.yml here is packaged default

[midnight shore]

oh it is in the main file ok

[sharp flare]

gets the embedded yml file and saves it in the plugin's parent folder along with its contents if it has

[sharp flare]

create the needed yml file in your resources folder/package

[midnight shore]

i can't. The whole point of this is that it does everything automatically, saving every CustomItems enum value (builded with the ItemBuilder) into a yml file in the plugin folder

i have like 100 custom items values

i can't make 100 files in the package folder

[sharp flare]

so you can't save those in a single yml file in its contents?

[midnight shore]

i'd prefer having multiple files but i can try thart

[sharp flare]

you can retrieve those as list then to itemstack array

[midnight shore]

like this?

[sharp flare]

maybe you can get an idea from this, I'm about to go out

What would be the bast way to save player skins data to file

should I go with yml file

or json

and put all data to one file

[misty ingot]

if you are expecting to save data for a ton of players, maybe use different json files for each player and name the json files to the player's uuid

works every time

[floral pewter]

The best way would be to store it inside a database

[wary harness]

I already got yml files where i store there balance

[misty ingot]

yeah well that works too

[wary harness]

I was thinkin of mysql

[floral pewter]

Sounds good

But why would you want to save skin data?

No need request
Store skins in a db, then check when player join ?

[floral pewter]

Are you making a custom plugin?

Or are you trying to work with an existing one?

[floral pewter]

If you are, decompile some existing ones and see if the issue can be resolved without saving skin data.

Right, maybe you could just cache skin data instead of storing it in a db

radial

cuz cancelling entitydamagebyentity wouldn't be that professional hahaha (with an equals on locations)

You cant interact with any spigot api from another thread. Even if it sometimes looks like it.

so i should call set meta from main thread again

[midnight shore]

what dependency should i add in order to have access to this class?

[wary harness]

something like this

[wary harness]

proper version

insted of spigot-api

you add dependancy of spigot

[midnight shore]

what do you mean?

1.2.5 is OG minecraft without singleplayer chat

[misty ingot]

you misspelled old

[cobalt tinsel]

yea

[misty ingot]

alright

tell me the ip

@cobalt tinsel

[cobalt tinsel]

wait

[tardy delta]

tell me too

[cobalt tinsel]

0.tcp.ngrok.io:17147

[misty ingot]

sussy

[cobalt tinsel]

you don't know ngrok?

[misty ingot]

I dont

[cobalt tinsel]

it's a thing that u use to "open" your port

so people can join your localhost

[tardy delta]

where is the ok button lol

[misty current]

does isBlockPowered() work on non redstone blocks? (stone, grass blocks...)

[tardy delta]

oh lol its not visible on my screen

[young knoll]

Yes

[tardy delta]

stupid 2nd screen

[misty current]

does it also work on translucent blocks?

[young knoll]

Maybe

It works on blocks that can be powered

[misty current]

so on blocks like glass it would not work

[smoky oak]

wouldnt it throw back false then

[young knoll]

Probably

[misty current]

aight i'll test, thank you

[cobalt tinsel]

you can join back

[errant narwhal]

someone help please

[smoky oak]

try using a non-deprecated method

they're flagged like that for a reason

[young knoll]

(You need a namespaced key)

[errant narwhal]

how to use this

[young knoll]

?jd-s

[undone axle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot

[errant narwhal]

thank i have find how to use thank you

[quiet ice]

we have an even shorter command for the spigot javadocs now?

[gleaming zenith]

Is there a for(ItemStack i: p.getInventory().getAllItems()){}?

or something like that

[young knoll]

.getContents

[gleaming zenith]

thx

[quiet ice]

or just for (ItemStack i : p.getInventory())

[young knoll]

Oh yeah inventory is iteratable

[wary harness]

Can you set itemmeta to final ItemStack ?

[young knoll]

Yes

[wary harness]

well my item meta is not getting set

[main dew]

How check if Player on ground in PlayerMoveEvent?

[smoky oak]

if the vertical speed is 0 that's a pretty good bet but i think there's a method for that

you can use player.isOnBlock, but that can be changed by the client and is therefore deprecated

[young knoll]

Yes but it’s deprecated

Because it can be spoofed

[long fog]

how do i get the paper api from buildtools

[young knoll]

You don’t

[tardy delta]

can a record have an abstract method?

[long fog]

what

[young knoll]

Paper doesn’t use buildtools

[tardy delta]

it says not allowed

[young knoll]

Go talk to paper

[smoky oak]

try if(e.getPlayer().getVelocity().getY() == 0), im not sure if itll work

[main dew]

hmm I can try

[smoky oak]

one morme thing

[young knoll]

I believe y velocity is constantly negative

Because “gravity”

[smoky oak]

you need to check if the player's actual y component ends on .000, or they could be swimming up into a block

also getVelocity() returns the vector the player is moving in

if they're on the ground they're not moving

on a completely different topic, can i somehow serialize ItemStack[] into a string instead of a map?

[tardy delta]

what do yall think about this idea to handle subcommands?

its a little small lemme paste it too

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

[young knoll]

Why a set

[tardy delta]

then i just extend that class to make a command and have methods with the signature CommandResult doSomething() which i add as subcommands

[main dew]

and don't work

[young knoll]

And not a map so you don’t have to stream and check name

[tardy delta]

mye i was thinking about that too

[main dew]

How I can check if Player inGround in PlayerMoveEvent?

[tardy delta]

if the player is in a block?

[young knoll]

The deprecated onGround method still works

As long as you are aware it can be spoofed

[main dew]

if the player is in a block? 😅

[tardy delta]

ah because you said "in ground"

[main dew]

and I am not asking about this method 😅

[narrow stag]

Hi i have one question.
If there are tutorial on OpendJDK 16.0.2 and i have OpenJDK 17. is it a huge different in coding ?

[main dew]

no

java JDK 17 have more functions

[narrow stag]

What about minecraft versions ?

its not a problem

so 1.16.5

[quiet ice]

yes

[narrow stag]

for example

[quiet ice]

Not if you are using maven though

[narrow stag]

im using maven

[quiet ice]

But gradle and spigot do get a heart attack if you use future java versions

[main dew]

java 17 work with minecraft 1.17 and 1.18 (idk how with older versions but 1.16.5 should work)

you must check it 😅

[narrow stag]

ok thx

[quiet ice]

1.16 only supports J16 at most

[tardy delta]

1.17.x works with jdk16 too

[main dew]

oke I can say onGround 😅

[narrow stag]

Im trying to download OpenJDK 16 but it does not work

on IDEA

[tardy delta]

yes

what does not work

lol

[main dew]

@tardy delta and you can answer me this question? 😅

[tardy delta]

check the block below his feet?

if its something else than air

[main dew]

grass water lava etc?

[tardy delta]

oh that still exists too

but if you just check if the type != Material.AIR it would work i guess

[main dew]

not wanting to use this method has quite a few drawbacks

[tardy delta]

why?

[misty ingot]

dude github copilot is just so op

[ivory sleet]

!Material.isAir()

[tardy delta]

owo

[smoky oak]

is the code for how the ender chest saves stuff avaliable somewhere?

[lost matrix]

yes

[stuck flax]

When using the .dropItem method the item flops around, is there a way to make it just appear/drop without flopping around?

[lost matrix]

What do you mean by "flops around"? Gif or video pls.

[tardy delta]

World#dropItem instead of World#dropItemNaturally?

i've heard that there isnt really a big difference

[stuck flax]

I have it spawning directory 1.5 blocks above the lapis block but when it drops it flops around

[stuck flax]

I could try it

[tardy delta]

which one are you using now?

[stuck flax]

world#dropItem

[tardy delta]

well then it wont help

smh then and than lol

[lost matrix]

This item looks weird... do you have a plugin that changed vanilla item behavior?

[stuck flax]

Not tmk

[lost matrix]

show a gif or video pls

[tardy delta]

could be a resourcepack too

[stuck flax]

Ok

[stuck flax]

I don't have one

[chrome beacon]

Clientside mod

[tardy delta]

plugin than

or that

[chrome beacon]

Or just a client

[stuck flax]

I'm using Lunar

wait I think I know whats wrong

[honest sentinel]

What event do I need to use to not make tnt ignite other tnts? And what even to prevent the exploded blocks from dropping items?

[tardy delta]

please does anyone has a boolean simplifying cheatsheet?

[stuck flax]

Yeah, Item Physics was doing that

[lost matrix]

EntityExplodeEvent -> remove tnt blocks from the block list

[honest sentinel]

thank you

[tardy delta]

not sure if !a && !b is the same as !(a || b)

[lost matrix]

You can simplify boolean statements by bringing them in a conjunctive normal form or disjunctive normal form
and then apply a reduction using a Karnaugh-Veitch map.

You should take a looks at boolean algebra.

[tardy delta]

dunno what that means lol

anyways got a cheatsheet

[worldly ingot]

Yeah I've gotta say, that's a bunch of nonsense to me too

boolean = true or false

[tardy delta]

kek

[vague swallow]

Hey uhm, I wanted to ask how the effect is called that grants knockback resistance

[smoky oak]

turtle master does but thats not the only thing it does

if you just want knockback resistance i think you have to manipulate attributes

[lost matrix]

Its an attribute and its called knockback resistance.

[vague swallow]

ah ty

[vague swallow]

and what's the default value?

[lost matrix]

0

[vague swallow]

turtle master is not an own effect, but ty

[vague swallow]

great ty

[smoky oak]

mm

btw 7smile?

[lost matrix]

Hm?

[smoky oak]

do you know if its possible to (easy-ish) serialize a itemStack into a string?

I've been ripping out my hair trying to save a item to a player's PDC for a while now

or more specific a itemStack[] array with length 9

[wet breach]

you can turn it into a base64 string

[vague swallow]

wait how can I change the vaule of that attribute?

or @smoky oak maybe you know

[smoky oak]

its something along the lines of 'Player.getAttribute(Attribute.KNOCKBAKC_RESISTANCE).set(double)'

[lost matrix]

There are several ways of (de)serializing an ItemStack to/from a String.
What method you use depends on what dependencies you want to have
on your classpath.

I like the one that uses version agnostic bukkit methods.

[smoky oak]

?

do you mean to json?

[lost matrix]

This is for just one ItemStack:

  public static String itemStackToBase64(final ItemStack item) {
    try {
      @Cleanup final ByteArrayOutputStream outputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
      @Cleanup final BukkitObjectOutputStream dataOutput = new BukkitObjectOutputStream(outputStream);
      dataOutput.writeObject(item);
      return Base64Coder.encodeLines(outputStream.toByteArray());
    } catch (IOException e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
      return null;
    }
  }

  public static ItemStack itemStackFromBase64(String base64) {
    try {
      @Cleanup final ByteArrayInputStream inputStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(Base64Coder.decodeLines(base64));
      @Cleanup final BukkitObjectInputStream dataInput = new BukkitObjectInputStream(inputStream);
      return (ItemStack) dataInput.readObject();
    } catch (IOException | ClassNotFoundException e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
      return null;
    }
  }

[vague swallow]

ty

[wet breach]

ah 7smile7 with an example for base64 way

[smoky oak]

i mean if it works

[wet breach]

it does work 🙂

7smile7 wouldn't lead you astray 😉

[smoky oak]

the annoying part is that i know there's a internal method that does almost exactly what i want

but i cant find it

[tardy delta]

@Cleanup kekw

[wet breach]

yes MC/bukkit has an internal method that utilizes base64 serializing, however why depend on the server jar, when 7smile7 gave you perfectly working code

[lost matrix]

This is an example on how to do an array of ItemStacks:
https://gist.github.com/Flo0/deb4ca074a00593349df30e20aec5773

[lost matrix]

I think it looks cleaner than a bunch of nested "try with resource" or "try catch finally" blocks

[tardy delta]

does the compiler changes it to a try with resources or what?

[lost matrix]

I think it compiles to a try catch finally block

Wait... i think it does a bit more even

[smoky oak]

7smile?
that second code block is dependent on another class

[lost matrix]

It analyses the code flow and closes the resources on the right position

[lost matrix]

On several

[tardy delta]

oeh sick

[smoky oak]

no like one i dont have access to

and i dont know enough about serialization to reverse engineer that one

[lost matrix]

Its from snakeyaml. Should be on the craftbukkit classpath i believe

If not then use some other encoder

But im away for now. Gonna get some water supplies because russia just put their nuclear deterrent force at high alert -.-

[tardy delta]

lol

[smoky oak]

dumb question probalby not belonging here, but this
https://www.source-code.biz/base64coder/java/Base64Coder.java.txt
which the class is 7smiler's methods use, specifies that it 'may be used under the terms of the following license', does that mean that part of the code (the class) or the entire software has to fall under that license?

ah wait

copyright already ran out

nevermind

[misty ingot]

hey so I have this array
private ArrayList<String> IsMuted = new ArrayList<>();
then in a different file, I try to access that array
else if (IsMuted.contains(player.getName())) {}
but it says Cannot resolve symbol 'IsMuted'

am I doing something wrong?

[tardy delta]

its private in that class so ye obviously you cant access it in another class

[smoky oak]

either set it as public or write a setter/getter method for the array

[lost matrix]

Super important to strongly encapsulate collections. So dont make it public pls.

[tardy delta]

^^

[misty ingot]

so what da HECC do i do

[lost matrix]

So:
Not public
No setter
No getter

[misty ingot]

;-;

[lost matrix]

mutator

[misty ingot]

wut do me do den

[tardy delta]

make some method isMuted(UUID) or something

dunno why you're using player names instead of uuid

[lost matrix]

  private final Set<UUID> mutedPlayers = new HashSet<>();

  public boolean isMuted(UUID playerID) {
    return this.mutedPlayers.contains(playerID);
  }

  public void setAsMuted(UUID playerID) {
    this.mutedPlayers.add(playerID);
  }

  public void unsetAsMuted(UUID playerID) {
    this.mutedPlayers.remove(playerID);
  }

Example

[full pilot]

can someone tell me a good plugin for login 1.8

[tardy delta]

hehe you changed it to set

was going to say it xd

[delicate lynx]

online-mode=true

[lost matrix]

1.8 support was dropped years ago.
Go and search in old forum posts.

[misty ingot]

ok thanks, I will try that

[dusk flicker]

unsetAsMuted

yikes

[lost matrix]

yeah
mute and unmute would be better names

[misty ingot]

its still the same issue but now with Cannot resolve method IsPlayerMuted

[dusk flicker]

well is that the method?

[lost matrix]

You my friend, skipped learning the very basics of java.
Spigot is not beginner friendly.

?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.

[misty ingot]

yeah

[dusk flicker]

obviously not

[lost matrix]

No offense. Actual advise.

[misty ingot]

I actually did learn the basics, I just have very very really very bad memory

[quaint mantle]

at least we have a command for it

[lost matrix]

We also need ?npe tho
