quaint mantle
class names are spigot but everything else is obfuscated
young shell
what site is that?
ivory sleet
he can use Iterator
Which is exactly what enhanced for loops compile down to
dire marsh
well that's useful
grim ice
oo
young shell
well that's useful
Yeah I love it, less cluttered than the viewer made by someone that shall not be named ^^
grim ice
Which is exactly what enhanced for loops compile down to
no u dont get it
instead of using like
arraylist.remove
ivory sleet
Idr exactly but it’s definitely possible to brick an ArrayList instance by nesting some iterations and operations
grim ice
you use the iterator .remove
ivory sleet
yes you literally do
grim ice
and it still does the same thing?
ivory sleet
enhanced for loops compile down to an iterator usage
That’s partly why any Iterable derivative can be used in an enhanced for loop semantic
young shell
Concurrently counting stuff is also a fun excercise
brave sparrow
with a standard for loop
That can very quickly fuck you up, the index will increment and skip a value if you’re not careful
If you remove at index you’ll have to decrement your index prior to continuing
solar dew
Help-me fast please, what is the second argument?
No body? Pleaseeeeeee
grim ice
@ivory sleet wait so theres no misunderstanding? even with iterator.remove() you still cant do it?
im confused
ivory sleet
No what I’m saying is that an enhanced for loop of an ArrayList is essentially just an iterator
(With next and hasnext)
grim ice
Im talking about the iterator.remove()
ivory sleet
Yeah that one
You can use it ofc
But like, internally iterations usually keep track of indices
grim ice
but will it produce a CME?
grim ice
thats what i thought
ivory sleet
When you’re nesting it, then it might occur I believe
grim ice
i got seriously confused
and if he's accessing it with multiple threads
you use
CopyOnWriteArrayList
right?

yea

CopyOnWriteArrayList has some colossal time complexities iirc

CopyOnWriteArrayList doesn't lock the list tho

Bootstrap Jar
The main spigot-1.18.jar is now a bootstrap jar which contains all libraries. You cannot directly depend on this jar. You should depend on Spigot/Spigot-API/target/spigot-api-1.18-R0.1-SNAPSHOT-shaded.jar, or the entire contents of the bundler directory from your server, or use a dependency manager such as Maven or Gradle to handle this automatically.

Your jar does not contain that file of yours
Might be the case that you are exporting your source wrongly
ivory sleet
Your code requires it
So yes
I mean alternatively you could generate the yaml file on the spot in the directory
But like
Then you’d have to change some code to make that work
frozen thorn
bc I was doing
public static HashMap<String, Object> getDefaultConfig() {
HashMap<String, Object> parameters = new HashMap<>();
parameters.put("spawn-location", new Location(Bukkit.getServer().getWorld("world"), 0, 100, 0, 0, 0));
return parameters;
}
The issue isn’t coming from that code tho
unkempt peak
yiu dont even need that
unkempt peak
just put a yml file in src with the defaults
frozen thorn
// Startup
Config config = new Config("benks.yml", this, Default.getDefaultConfig());
then onEnable saveDeafaultConfig
ivory sleet
It copies the file from your jar to your plugin folder
frozen thorn
okay thanks
ivory sleet
If the file (within the jar) does not exist you’ll get an error just like the one you got
frozen thorn
it's working with config.yml name?
silent hound
how do i show the usage like tab complete, but not actually tab complete
frozen thorn
okay thanks
unkempt peak
how do i show the usage like tab complete, but not actually tab complete
what do you mean?
unkempt peak
just add [<count>] to the tab completer
ivory sleet
That’s actually tab completion
But it’s the name of an optional argument @silent hound
Spigot api does not offer a way to provide tab completion with those sadly
silent hound
ah :'(
ivory sleet
However I will send you an example
frozen thorn
yeah ik ty
silent hound
no i've got it
ik how to do tab complete, i was just wondering if there was a way to show something, but not let the player actually complete it
ivory sleet
the argument("players", … would be shown as <players> in your chat when writing the command
ivory sleet
No
Or well
Arguments can still suggest completions
But not mandatory
(If you don’t want to use nms directly it’s possible to use command api, acf or even cloud as they all include this in their respective apis)

But it requires some decent java and oop knowledge

File class is a bit broken
And obsolete sadly
Yes but it’s still legacy
Getting all the files from a directory with a lot of files can result in hang thus also dos
Yeah the link I sent you basically summarizes the drawbacks of File (:
eternal night
I mean, prefix it with your plugin name or something
unkempt peak
Yeah EventEndEvent is too generic
worldly ingot
The typical nomenclature (at least per Bukkit's standards) is to prefix with the type of event
e.g. if it's a player event, prefix with Player. If a block event, prefix with Block, etc.
frozen thorn
what is the path of the ressource folder?
worldly ingot
i.e. player-run events/minigame type thing?
PlayerEventEndEvent is probably fine then
Just kind of an unfortunate situation where you happen to have "event" twice in the name
An abstract type would have to be an EventEvent lol

When the player joins -> get his UUID, create a File object then load the File using YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(File)

plus if you cache correctly it should be fine

Even then.

Just never do IO on the main thread.

Dont read from configs on runtime. Use properly named classes and names and store the data when the player joins.
Then later save it again when the player quits.
And always do IO async
grim ice
public boolean getCooldownToggle(UUID uuid){
return getStorage(uuid).getCoolToggle();
}
sacred mountain
getStorage?
lost matrix
it can be changed whilst theyre online tho
Yes. Thats why you use classes and variables. They can easily be changed while a player is online. And then later saved again when he quits.
tall dragon
and an autosave every like 5-10 minutes might be usefull
lost matrix

and an autosave every like 5-10 minutes might be usefull

make some class
can u elaborate bc i still dont fully get it

make a class for storing the config values
PlayerDataManager.getData(uuid).getCooldownToggle() for example

if in plugin.yml there is a permission to a command, does I need to check if player has the permission in the command class?

thought so aswell haha
hexed hatch
what is it you're trying to do with that?
main dew
Only possible on mods
drowsy harness
basically non-euclidean rooms, on a SkyBlock world. So you could cover a room on the outside with this block that has it's faces hidden, and it would be like the harry potter tent.
But I'll instead only load blocks that should be visible on the inside.

it's like .split("") but more straightforward ig

It will spread out the contents of an array into the arguments of a function where possible. Good example I saw was this:
function example(a, b, c) {

}
const values = [ "first", "second", "third" ]
example(...values)
and I suppose strings override the spread operator to spread a string into a string array because example(..."sup") would result in example("s", "u", "p")

I am currently trying to convert java.time classes to ticks so I can specify times of day in the scheduler, is this correct...?
public static long timeToTicks(LocalTime thenTime) {
final var now = LocalDateTime.now();
final var nowTime = now.toLocalTime();
if (thenTime.isBefore(nowTime)) {
final var then = now.toLocalDate().plusDays(1);
return now.until(thenTime.atDate(then), ChronoUnit.SECONDS) * 20;
}
return nowTime.until(thenTime, ChronoUnit.SECONDS) * 20;
}
I need to explicitly check that the "then" time isn't before "now" because that would produce a negative value, which the scheduler cannot take. I also can't abs it as it would be invalid.
With my situation, I have two LocalTimes which represent times where daily tasks will occur. I don't want these values to rely on date as they are repeating.
(Also it would make configuration harder)

ok thanks

different topic where is the jar i need to use to not see this?
quaint mantle
i wonder why it is in living entity by default, instead of in the playerdeathevent
smoky oak
i did do the --remapped but im unsure where the jar is im searching
quaint mantle
i wonder why it is in living entity by default, instead of in the playerdeatheve...
the get killer
smoky oak
one function if one hooks into eneity death
i presume its to handle stuff like deaths of named tamed animals for example
quaint mantle
oh that could be the reason
smoky oak
you can set backgrounds in intellij
and i just used the image i used for my story
im going to presume you found the button then
settings -> Appearance & behaviour -> Appearance if anyone else's interested
on a completely different note
and i know im asking this again
but nobody is answering
how do i get the spigot -> mojang mapping, so that nms functions aint just letters
seriously why the fuck is this server dead once i open my mouth, it happens like clockwork

You can build 1.18.1 using BuildTools https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/buildtools/
java -jar BuildTools.jar --rev 1.18.1
oh thats changed
use --remapped and specialsource plugin as it tells you on the forums
eternal oxide
smoky oak
im not too sure what you mean by that tbh
eternal oxide
read the three posts by md5
smoky oak
ah so
the remapped-mojang is the source (?) I'm looking for, and the plugin is to map it back onto what's considered to be allowed to be distributed
am i correct in assuming the remapped-mojang.jar also contains the javadoc, then?
eternal oxide
look and see?
quaint mantle

its alex!
do you know what plugins might have their source code public?
preferably ones that are not old and don't use deprecated code

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.
ivory sleet
generics is well interesting
Needless to say it makes it all more confusing due to the type inference and type erasure
quaint mantle
generics is well interesting
yeah but the api utilizes generics
ivory sleet
Which api?
quaint mantle
paper and pretty sure spigot too
ivory sleet
Yeah tho not a lot?
quaint mantle
still because i dont know generics and List I cant use the method i wanted to use
ivory sleet
Well
In simple terms
List<T> is the class declaration
It takes a generic type parameter
Similar to how you have normal constructors which take objects as arguments
lapis widget
"I gotta learn generics"
ivory sleet
Only difference is that List<T> has a type constructor which takes a type rather than an object
quaint mantle
dude this thing isnt working
lapis widget
I gotta actually try development
quaint mantle
dude you told me to make plugins but i cant make plugins
how do you expect me to make a plugin if i don't know how to use generics
quaint mantle
yeah but he said i should stop studying java and start making plugins
lapis widget
yea
ivory sleet
Nice
ivory sleet
yeah but he said i should stop studying java and start making plugins
Learn them concurrently
quaint mantle
im salty rn
ivory sleet
But you have to really put some grand effort into learning Java and OOP
they’re the two things you use for everything else in regards to spigot, paper and modding
quaint mantle
yeah i should've stayed focused on that
ivory sleet
The reason why I believe doing both concurrently is insightful is because you can apply the theory to some concrete ground such as a plugin which makes you exercise actual practice
quaint mantle
i just wanna study my java
making a plugin hasn't helped
all my plugin does is give items to a player and send messages to the console
big whoop
lapis widget
Start at the basics of a plugin
Then start at creating larger functions
Great example:
Collecting mobs, hooking into holographicdisplays handling wildstacker

dude stop giving this advice to newbies to start making a plugin when are still trying to learn java
ivory sleet
Torchun
What plugin you make makes no difference as of now
You just wanna get something to work
And then try to understand every little thing you wrote
quaint mantle
You just wanna get something to work
it does not work
ivory sleet
Fiddle with it
Ask questions
Google issues you encounter
By “get something to work” it doesn’t mean you just take an easy step and then it’s suddenly done
Getting something to work can take time, but let it take some time
quaint mantle
now i firmly believe that people should not make plugins until they feel familiar enough with the language

A great example is my website xd
I've got hardly any knowledge on webdevelopment because I didn't invest my time into looking into it
I "LEARN" by trying to make it work while it doesn't always have the prettiest result the functionality will be there
ivory sleet
Anyhow, regardless learning Java on your own before plugins is totally fine
smoky oak
i learned java with plugins lol
ivory sleet
This channel isn’t made for spigot dev questions merely
quaint mantle
i learned java with plugins lol
haven't other devs advised you to learn java before doing plugins?
ivory sleet
However people might pull the ?learnjava on you if you ask stupid questions
quaint mantle
However people might pull the ?learnjava on you if you ask stupid questions
i'll do the same
ivory sleet
Myeah
Some questions I find acceptable is for instance
So generics works as following …, am I right? Or do I miss something?
hardy swan
Don't get me wrong, I think you can indeed learn java with plugins, but don't ask questions that are basic java
ivory sleet
But questions that are less acceptable would be
So what is generics? How do I use generics?
hardy swan
Yea, basically asking for a tutorial
quaint mantle
Some questions I find acceptable is for instance
So generics works as following...
That's not a Spigot question. It's just basic java (unfortunately, one that I am not familiar with). Those people can get the ?learnjava
smoky oak
i ask things more of the like 'do i need net.minecraft.world.WorldType.a() or net.minecraft.world.WorldType.b()' bc there's no documentation avaliable for me atm
ivory sleet
That's not a Spigot question. It's just basic java (unfortunately, one that I am...
No
You can get the information from those websites
But let’s say you still didn’t understand a concept fully
Or want to revise on your knowledge
Then asking a question would be okay imho
quaint mantle
oh okay then that works i guess
reminds me of how i wasn't able to understand recursion. And I don't want to understand it either.
fuck recursion
ivory sleet
Lol yeah
hardy swan
recursion is the very first thing I learn in college
so I would naturally say you need to appreciate that
quaint mantle
recursion is the very first thing I learn in college
Want a joke?
ivory sleet
Normal loops such as for and while can always replace recursion
quaint mantle
To understand recursion, one must first understand recursion.
smoky oak
may i suggest: Fractal clock
ivory sleet
Lol
hardy swan
Normal loops such as for and while can always replace recursion
yes, but not the intuition
quaint mantle
i got the recursion joke from a spigoter on the forums
smoky oak
that thing eats up 70% of a GM960 Nvidea graphics card btw
ivory sleet
yes, but not the intuition
Indeed, but if you just want to do something iteratively a finite amount of times
quaint mantle
that thing eats up 70% of a GM960 Nvidea graphics card btw
horrendous
ivory sleet
Both can achieve the equivalent
hardy swan
Indeed, but if you just want to do something iteratively a finite amount of time...
in that case recursion is not intuitive haha

i ask things more of the like 'do i need `net.minecraft.world.WorldType.a()` or ...
tbh nms is most of the time tapping into unknown territories, so unknown that no one bothered to write an api
smoky oak
fair
the one time i had to use nms was when i had to fill in a few hundred thousand blocks every few seconds once

hardy swan
the one time I had to use nms is because minecraft's raid class actually sucks
smoky oak
well luckily i could guess which function i had to use
but im not banking on having that luck next time
hardy swan
you can always use remapped jar nowadays
I don't miss those days where I compare 1.17 remapped and 1.16 obfuscated method in terms of their order
to support both
smoky oak
havent gotten around to importing it yet
do i just import the remapped-mojang in the place of the normal spigot jar?
hardy swan
maven?
smoky oak
ye
hardy swan
<dependency>
<groupId>org.spigotmc</groupId>
<artifactId>spigot</artifactId>
<version>1.18.1-R0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<classifier>remapped-mojang</classifier>

hardy swan
"In the case where you decide to develop your plugins with the remapped version"
or sth like that

its inside <build> > </build>
hardy swan
so it should be
```xml
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>...</plugin>
</...
inside build
smoky oak
theres no <build> in my pom.xml
imma assume that goes on the same level as <dependencies>
smoky oak
ok last question then
the remapped-mojang and remapped-ofc
to which categories (classes, sources, javaDoc) do i add them?
hardy swan
huh
smoky oak
like i still need to import those files after all
hardy swan
you are expected to have installed the remapped jar locally
hardy swan
So maven stores certain files locally in your computer
smoky oak
.m2
hardy swan
yes
hardy swan
hit enter?
hardy swan
yes
smoky oak
k thanks
it works now
perfect
question tho
if i leave the .m2 folder as-is, i dont need to import the remapped jars
does this apply to the normal api and javadoc as well?
hardy swan
you never had to import any jars from the beginning
smoky oak
wellllll
im just dumb then
good to know
oh right
any way to move .m2 to a separate drive?
hardy swan
I think many people just have that practice of import jars because of some youtube videos
hardy swan
any way to move .m2 to a separate drive?
yes, but I don't know
smoky oak
that'll be beyond helpful
because im really starting to run outta space
that 100GB are almost exclusively program files
and my steam library is already on D:
hardy swan
symbolic links can solve most of these cases, but won't recommend if you ever need the files without your harddisk connected
I had chrome files saved in my hard disk for my previous laptop, and whenever I forget to bring my disk around I can't use chrome
smoky oak
well i know for a fact I'll not remove D: until this computer dies
so
not really a problem

I can confirm that you cannot do this with TabCompletionEvent. It just provides possible autocompletes, but does not make the red text pop up if its one that you shouldnt use

Brigadier is open source

are you talking to me?
yes
young knoll
Idk if it has any docs
young knoll

you must be experienced in gradle then

idk what gradle is
i only use maven because that's how i learned
what is plugin.yml gradle or maven
cos i have pom.xml
visual tide
what is plugin.yml gradle or maven
neither
its for spigot to get info on your plugin

but the video i started watching had plugin.yml

if you use maven you'll need a pom and a plugin.yml
