[quaint mantle]

whats your host?

[tender shard]

doesn't every hoster have at least one mysql DB free?

[young knoll]

Most hosts do

[quaint mantle]

wait..

[dawn hazel]

its not host specific

[quaint mantle]

how does mysql work?

[dawn hazel]

if u buy minecraft hosting u get free databases most of the time

[young knoll]

What do you mean how does it work

[tender shard]

you start the server and then connect to it? lol

[dawn hazel]

oh great mongo shat itself again

[quaint mantle]

ok then i have a free database

i own a server lol

[unreal quartz]

Problem: using mongo
Solution: don’t use mongo

[dawn hazel]

i use it for luckperms

[tender shard]

seems like wrong port or sth like that

[dawn hazel]

nah its just that clevercloud sucks for mongo

but i dont have a node for databases yet

[unreal quartz]

Clever cloud

Worlds worst name award goes to

[lavish hemlock]

Clever cloud, dumb ground

[dawn hazel]

i dont rlly have another option lol

[lavish hemlock]

ironic that "Skygamez" is using "Clever cloud"

[dawn hazel]

its that or i buy a server for mongo

[young knoll]

Doesn’t lp support

Like

Not mongo

[quaint mantle]

@lavish hemlock just realized ur pfp is puro

lmao

cute

[unreal quartz]

It supports literally everything

[lavish hemlock]

Yes :3

[quaint mantle]

:D

[young knoll]

Yours is Gordon Ramsey

Did I win

[quaint mantle]

yes

is your uhhhh

[dawn hazel]

vps costs money

[quaint mantle]

idk

[lavish hemlock]

Gordon Ramsey in basically every Kitchen Nightmares:
IT'S FOCKIN' RAAAW

[quaint mantle]

i only have the pfp

cause ive worn it

for 2 years

on discord

[dawn hazel]

i need to keep costs low for the development phase of the server

[young knoll]

Mine is me

(I’m the orange one)

[lavish hemlock]

they're both orange

[young knoll]

:(

I’m not that orange am I

[lavish hemlock]

Is your last name Trump or smthn?

[dawn hazel]

mainly cause i need to save money for buying plugins and other shit for the server

[young knoll]

Was I Donald Trump all along

[lavish hemlock]

same joke

@dawn hazel Have you considered just running an SQL server locally...?

[young knoll]

Step 1. Use the database your server probably provided

Step 2: don’t buy premium plugins

They suck

<3

[lavish hemlock]

This is true

[dawn hazel]

not just plugins

i need builds, graphic design, web design, all that

all that costs

wait for it

money

[young knoll]

You making the next hypixel

[dawn hazel]

...

this is just basic stuff

if i just put a dirt build on the server and released it

actually that could be cool

but not rn bad impression

[unreal quartz]

Have you considered armed robbery as a source of income

[lavish hemlock]

^

[dawn hazel]

LMFAO

[lavish hemlock]

Hasn't failed me yet

[young knoll]

I mean you can run a server without a website

Or fancy graphic design stuff

[dawn hazel]

this is my logo rn

[lavish hemlock]

wow

that is fucking

amazing

[dawn hazel]

i made it in 10 seconds using mspaint

[tender shard]

the grandchild trick is the best way to get $$$

[lavish hemlock]

like legitimately some of the best graphic design I've ever seen

gg

I think you win at life

[tender shard]

https://tenor.com/view/ron-swanson-parks-and-rec-its-so-beautiful-gif-15644547

[dawn hazel]

slight problem with that

this server is currently being hosted 24/7

my computer is not up 24/7

[young knoll]

Okay

[dawn hazel]

more like 15/7

[young knoll]

So host it on the server

[dawn hazel]

i do that

for the sql databases

[young knoll]

Then

[dawn hazel]

mongo tho

[young knoll]

Setup luckperms to use sql

[dawn hazel]

i probably should do that

but i dont rlly feel like transferring perms at the moment considering i was doing over an hours worth of debugging on a plugin all for it to be a little invisible typo on plugin.yml

[young knoll]

I bet lp has something to handle the transfer for you

[dawn hazel]

it does

but i have to reopen minecraft and export the perms then setup a new database on all the subservers and proxy then reload the perms

tedious

[kind hatch]

You don't need to open minecraft for it. Just use the console command. 😛 (lp export <fileName>)

[quaint mantle]

its 10 grand to use MySQL publically?

oh im sorry thats the expensive pack

2 grand

jesus fuck

[wet breach]

what?

maybe if you want to use the enterprise version

which includes support and other tools

the community edition is free

[quaint mantle]

does that mean i can store data

easy

or

[wet breach]

the only difference between the enterprise and community edition is the tools and support for enterprise. Otherwise functionality wise with the DB software is the exact same

[quaint mantle]

okay so basically spent 2K for dumb tools and support

im fine lol

ill use free

[wet breach]

probably should have better researched their site

because their site actually states this

[quaint mantle]

i saw 10 thousand dollars

and got scared

who wouldnt get scared at the site of that

thats INSANE

[wet breach]

If you didn't bother looking at any other pages sure I guess

they don't make it hidden for the community edition

[quaint mantle]

How do I get a blocks amterial?

*material

[young knoll]

getType

?jd-a

?jd-s

[undone axle]

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

[quaint mantle]

doesnt getType return name and such?

block.getType() == Material.CHEST

This wouldnt work normally...

would it?

[young knoll]

It will

It returns a material enum value

[quaint mantle]

huh

alr

How would I make a chest thats locked

But it doesnt show that it is

[young knoll]

Cancel the interact event

[quaint mantle]

if(blockCont.get(new NamespacedKey(EmeraldsPlugin.jp,"crateMain"), PersistentDataType.STRING) == null){
                            blockCont.set(new NamespacedKey(EmeraldsPlugin.jp,"crateMain"), PersistentDataType.STRING, "basicCrate");
                            p.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "Crate is now a basic crate!");

Any reason why this, when clicking twice, runs successfully still?

It should be detecting it as not null anymre

[young knoll]

What is blockCont

[quaint mantle]

TileState state = (TileState) block.getState();
                        PersistentDataContainer blockCont = state.getPersistentDataContainer();

yes btw its a chest

[young knoll]

Do you update it

[quaint mantle]

wdym update it

[young knoll]

state.update

[quaint mantle]

ty

@young knoll Last question: How would I prevent somebody from closing a gui for X amount of time?

[young knoll]

Use a runnable

And reopen it if it’s close

Or use the close event to reopen it

[quaint mantle]

Whats the event name?

[young knoll]

InventoryCloseEvent

[quaint mantle]

nvm not going to use that, how do I check if its closed?

[young knoll]

Player.getOpenInventory

[quaint mantle]

p.getOpenInventory() == null

does it return null if its closed

or

[young knoll]

It returns the players inventory if its closed

[quaint mantle]

how would i check if its actually closed

p.getOpenInventory().equals(gui)?

this is gui btw: Inventory gui = Bukkit.createInventory(p, 9*5, crateType);

[quaint mantle]

sorry if im asking so many questions btw lol

[young knoll]

Should work

Idk if it returns a inventory or a view

[ornate patio]

how can i get rid of this "When in Main Hand" stuff

and "Unbreakable"

[earnest forum]

item flags

[ornate patio]

which flag?

[earnest forum]

ItemStack item = new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND_SWORD, 1);
ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
meta.addItemFlags(ItemFlag.HIDE_ATTRIBUTES);
item.setItemMeta(meta);

[young knoll]

Hide attributes

I think hide unbreakable is another one

[ornate patio]

ah thanks

[young knoll]

What version is this

[ornate patio]

1.18.1

[young knoll]

Why a hoe

[ornate patio]

so i can have custom textures

[young knoll]

Use something edible, it will make life much easier

[ornate patio]

for each damage value

[young knoll]

You can add custom textures to anything

Custom model data

[quaint mantle]

@young knoll Small question: How do i constantly update and open a gui

like an animation

[ornate patio]

with a hoe you can have like 3000 custom textures on one item though

[quaint mantle]

ig you could say

[young knoll]

Yeah

And with custom model data you can have 999,999

[ornate patio]

wait what

[young knoll]

Just edit/replace the items in the GUI

[ornate patio]

how

[young knoll]

https://www.planetminecraft.com/forums/communities/texturing/new-1-14-custom-item-models-tuto-578834/

In spigot you simply use ItemMeta#setCustomModelData

[quaint mantle]

so just constantly do gui.setContents?

[ornate patio]

oh damn

but using a netherite hoe still wouldn't hurt right?

[young knoll]

You can set a single item

[ornate patio]

no one uses those

[young knoll]

Or use setcontents

Yes but you can’t drink a hoe

[ornate patio]

oh

[young knoll]

Using something already edible will give you the nice animation

[ornate patio]

i guess so

[young knoll]

And then you can just intercept the PlayerConsumeItemEvent

[ornate patio]

i can use like a water bottle then right

[young knoll]

Sure

[ornate patio]

i'm trying to make the alcohol have a certain ml of liquid in it

so you'll be able to drink it like 20 times before it disappears

thing is that means i'm gonna have to have a custom model for empty bottles and water bottles

for that split second when the bottle is empty before the server replaces with a water bottle

[young knoll]

?

[ornate patio]

like

i can have an event

when the player consumes the water bottle

it'll replace the item in their hand with a new one

[young knoll]

Why replace it

[ornate patio]

what else can i do

[young knoll]

Just edit the current one

And cancel the event so it doesn’t disappear

[ornate patio]

because when the water bottle is consumed it turns into a glass bottle

[ornate patio]

oh forgot about that

[quaint mantle]

@young knoll How would I select a random object in a list like so?

Crates:
  basicCrate:
    fullName: Basic Crate
    itemList:
      DIAMOND:
        Type: Regular
        Amount: 5
      EMERALD:
        Type: Regular
        Amount: 5
      NETHERITE_INGOT:
        Type: Regular
        Amount: 1

Each have equal chances btw

[young knoll]

You can read the keys of itemList into a collection

And then get a random element from the collection

[quaint mantle]

Can you show me an example?

Cant find anything online.

private static Object getRandom(String crateType){
        Object conf = EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().get("Crates." + crateType + ".itemList");
        Object item = null;

        return item;
    }

[ornate patio]

if i were to use meta#getCustomModelData on an item that doesn't have a custom model data set, what would it return?

[young knoll]

getConfigurationSection(Crates.basicCrate.itemList).getKeys(false)

“Plugins should check that hasCustomModelData() returns true before calling this method.”

So who knows, might throw an error

[quaint mantle]

Wont that get only the first one?

[ornate patio]

oh i didnt know thats a thing

thanks

[young knoll]

getKeys gets all the keys

[quaint mantle]

Ah okay

[young knoll]

Also I noticed a javadoc error

Yay free PR

Heh

[quaint mantle]

@young knoll Last question, is there a way I can get an enum based on a string?

Example: Material[item]

or smth like that

[young knoll]

Material.matchMaterial

[quaint mantle]

@young knoll returns null

private static ItemStack getRandom(String crateType){
        FileConfiguration conf = EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig();
        ItemStack item = new ItemStack(Objects.requireNonNull(Material.matchMaterial(conf.getConfigurationSection("Crates.basicCrate.itemList").getName())), 1);;

        return item;
    }

printed in console as a test first btw

[young knoll]

And?

[quaint mantle]

it returns null lol

like i said

and errors

[young knoll]

You are getting the name of the section

[quaint mantle]

Yes?

DIAMOND:
Type: Regular
Amount: 5
EMERALD:
Type: Regular
Amount: 5
NETHERITE_INGOT:
Type: Regular
Amount: 1

[young knoll]

The name of the itemList section

[quaint mantle]

As in its returning DIAMOND

[young knoll]

Is itemList

[quaint mantle]

... oh

wait so

then how would I get

DIAMOND

or EMERALD

or etc

[young knoll]

Crates.basicCrate.itemList.DIAMOND

[quaint mantle]

yea but

[young knoll]

That’s why I told you to read all the keys into a collection

[quaint mantle]

OH

[young knoll]

So you’ll have a list of DIAMOND, EMERALD, etc

[quaint mantle]

But that gets ALL keys correct?

So how would I select a random one

[young knoll]

Put them in a list

Get random item from list

[quaint mantle]

yes but how lol

[young knoll]

Google it

That’s a basic java question

[ancient jackal]

is this basically a hashmap computeIfPresent but with a put after it? I tried computeIfPresent but couldn't return

            HashMap<Integer, Integer> hm = ...
            if(hm.containsKey(target-n)) {
                return new int[]{hm.get(target-n), i};
            } else {
                hm.put(n, i);
            }```

[young knoll]

What

ComputeIfAbsent

[ancient jackal]

but if hm.containsKey

then return

[young knoll]

Or just get the value once and check if it’s null

[quaint mantle]

@young knoll it errors, now at randomSelection

FileConfiguration conf = EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig();
        Set<String> list = conf.getConfigurationSection("Crates.basicCrate.itemList").getKeys(true);

        int size = list.size();
        int randomSelection = new Random().nextInt(size);
        int i = 0;
        for(String obj : list){
            if (i == randomSelection) {
                return new ItemStack(Material.getMaterial(obj), 1);
            }
            i++;
        }

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: bound must be positive
11.03 04:33:59 [Server] INFO at hidingthis.Crate.getRandom(Crate.java:21) ~[?:?]

[ancient jackal]

the code works, it was an O(n) solution to something I'm working on but I was wondering something that doesn't really matter ig

[young knoll]

You know you can just do

List.get(random number)

Well, if you use a list instead of a set

[quaint mantle]

it doesnt let me

it errors

[ornate patio]

so i've tried to use a resource pack to edit the potion's texture and decided to use a gold ingot as a test...

I've just created pink bar.

[young knoll]

Pig ingot

[young knoll]

“Errors” does not help

[ancient jackal]

size is < 0

[ornate patio]

but why

[quaint mantle]

Required type:
List

Provided:
Set
<java.lang.String>

Unfixable

[ancient jackal]

bound is size in nextInt(size)

[young knoll]

Oh weird it returns a set and not a collection

You can just do list blah = new ArrayList(get the stuff here)

[ornate patio]

is there a way to make a potion "colorless"? Because I think thats what is making my textures pink

[young knoll]

I don’t think you can get rid of the glow

Not sure

[quaint mantle]

confused on what you mean

also @young knoll still no workie

FileConfiguration conf = EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig();
        ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
        list.addAll(conf.getConfigurationSection("Crates.basicCrate.itemList").getKeys(false));

        System.out.println(list);

        return new ItemStack(Material.getMaterial(list.get(new Random().nextInt(list.size()))), 1);

I did what you said

Its at return it doesnt work

[iron tundra]

I can't seem to find the correct api to make a wolf that I spawned via a item become tamed by the item owner if someone can help guide me to the correct api I would appreciate it!

[young knoll]

Tamable#setOwner

[young knoll]

Doesn’t work isn’t helpful

also, list prints out []

[young knoll]

That means the list is empty

[quaint mantle]

Well, why?

[young knoll]

Looks right to me

Assuming the file you sent earlier is accurate

[quaint mantle]

Crates:
  basicCrate:
    fullName: Basic Crate
    itemList:
      DIAMOND:
        Type: Regular
        Amount: 5
      EMERALD:
        Type: Regular
        Amount: 5
      NETHERITE_INGOT:
        Type: Regular
        Amount: 1

Did I do something wron here maybe?

[young knoll]

Looks fine

[quaint mantle]

Here is an updated thingy @young knoll

private static ItemStack getRandom(String crateType){
        FileConfiguration conf = EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig();
        ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
        list.addAll(conf.getConfigurationSection("Crates." + crateType + ".itemList").getKeys(false));

        System.out.println(conf.getConfigurationSection("Crates." + crateType + ".itemList").getKeys(false));

        return new ItemStack(Material.getMaterial(list.get(new Random().nextInt(list.size()))), 1);
    }

It errors at new Random().nextInt(list.size())

for some reason

[young knoll]

Yeah then list is empty

[quaint mantle]

Yea its returning empty

tested list.size

why?

[young knoll]

Not sure

Make sure crateType is right

[quaint mantle]

yea cause it error at list.addAll

cause it be unable to find the correctpath

[waxen plinth]

That's kind of a bad way to do it

It'll refetch every time

Doing an O(n) operation just to fetch one element which should be O(1)

Just load it once and then get a random element when the method is called

[quaint mantle]

How am I suppost to load it once?

[young knoll]

Do it on startup

[quaint mantle]

public class Crate {
    private static ItemStack getRandom(String crateType){
        ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
        list.addAll(EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getConfigurationSection("Crates." + crateType + ".itemList").getKeys(true));

        System.out.println(list);
        System.out.println(EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getConfigurationSection("Crates." + crateType + ".itemList"));
        System.out.println(EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getConfigurationSection("Crates." + crateType + ".itemList").getKeys(true));

        return new ItemStack(Material.getMaterial(list.get(new Random().nextInt(list.size()))), 1);
    }

[waxen plinth]

Just load it and store it somewhere rather than refetching every time

[quaint mantle]

Oh.

[waxen plinth]

That system also doesn't allow for any kind of weighting other than by adding duplicates

[young knoll]

I mean that’s just the start of issues

But hey, learning is learning

[quaint mantle]

What if i need to add some sort of wait or smth for it to addAll?

But im not sure, my brain hurts e.e

[young knoll]

You do not

[quaint mantle]

Any way to do my script better then?

[young knoll]

Several but it would probably just be confusing to spew them all at you

[quaint mantle]

would it be bad for me to say wow me

[young knoll]

Everyone starts somewhere

I would learn more java before tackling spigot, but I can’t really tell you what to do

[quaint mantle]

its how i learn

i tackle hard stuff so that i challenge myself, but ask for help

i learn more in a shorter time, and recall it better

• you cant "learn" java without a reason to

so trying to make a minecraft plugins a good way to actually learn java

per say

[young knoll]

Disagree

Spigot is a third party API, you don’t need to be introducing it until you understand enough of the first party APIs

[quaint mantle]

True, but as I said its how I personally learn

Personal preference

Challenge will both let me learn more in a shorter time, recall it better, and its fun to me

I like a challenge

[young knoll]

The problem is you are asking dozens of questions in here

A lot of which you should already know, or can find on the javadocs

[quaint mantle]

Which many of the questions I ask are so I dont have to do trial and error, if you noticed

[hasty prawn]

That is part of learning how to do it though

[quaint mantle]

Cause it takes me 5 minutes to:
Saving the plugin build
Insert the plugin again
Reloading the server

Its WHY ive been asking like 80 questions

There have only been like 3 where its not related to trial and error

And was an actual situation

Otherwise I have been learning lol

[hasty prawn]

And that's why you have your IDE build directly to the plugin folder so all you have to do is build and /reload 😄

[quaint mantle]

Yes but i bought a server, shockbyte

thats the issue

[hasty prawn]

You can still have it auto-upload I believe.

[quaint mantle]

Sadly only if you pay 15 extra dollars.

Which is kinda BS in my opinion.

[hasty prawn]

And honestly, for testing plugins, it's a good idea to use a localhost server for quick testing.

[quaint mantle]

Takes up all my cpu lol

I tried

[hasty prawn]

Yikes lol

[quaint mantle]

It only doesnt do that in 1.12.2 or lower

And my plugin is 1.18.1

[hasty prawn]

My laptop is only using 18% of CPU right now and I have Minecraft, Server, IDE, Firefox, Discord all open

[iron tundra]

I am trying to make when I spawn this wolf entity in, it automatically becomes the owner of the item holder. If you can explain what I did wrong I would appreciate it!

            event.getPlayer().getWorld().spawnEntity(event.getPlayer().getLocation(), EntityType.WOLF).setCustomName(ChatColor.GOLD + "Queen's Guard");
            Wolf w = (Wolf) event.getPlayer().getNearbyEntities(1,1,1);
            if (Objects.equals(w.getCustomName(), ChatColor.GOLD + "Queen's Guard")) {
                w.setOwner(event.getPlayer());
            }

[hasty prawn]

What are your computer specs

[quaint mantle]

Mine is a gaming pc, using 20 with JDK, discord, google, minecraft, IntelJ

so i mean its a good pc

*using 20%

[hasty prawn]

A server shouldn't be killing you then, should be fine.

Definitely not 80%...

[quaint mantle]

I have 0 reason why it does.

It takes up 80% during its loading.

[hasty prawn]

Oh, yeah. That happens.

[quaint mantle]

Thats normal?

[hasty prawn]

Yes.

[quaint mantle]

Well damn xD

[hasty prawn]

Chunk loading is extremely CPU intensive, once it starts, should be fine.

Although I've noticed it's faster in 1.18.2 for some reason, or it seems to be.

[young knoll]

getNearbyEntites cannot be cast to wolf

You already have the wolf returned from the spawn method

[quaint mantle]

So im just unlucky and made my plugin in 1.18.2

:P

[hasty prawn]

1.18.1 I assume you mean?

[ornate patio]

anyone know why retexturing a black potion into a gold ingot does this?
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/784855227969830972/951709353356972062/unknown.png

[hasty prawn]

I mean 1.18.1 should still be fine, startup is just longer.

[hasty prawn]

That's actually wild lol

[ornate patio]

i don't even know where else to ask

[hasty prawn]

I guess potion ItemStack takes in a color and just applies it to whatever model it's given

On the client ^

[ornate patio]

it's just slapping the potion color on top of the texture

[hasty prawn]

You wouldn't be able to stop that probably, maybe there's some color that wouldn't do that, not sure.

[quaint mantle]

Yep

[ornate patio]

what have i done

wait hold up a minute tho

those actual gold ingots are slow falling potions

interesting

[smoky oak]

aint there a better option to do that

CustomModelData iirc?

[ornate patio]

yeah i know

right now im just trying to get rid of the color

[hasty prawn]

Could you use a water bottle instead of a potion

[smoky oak]

ah you're doing the textures rn then

[ornate patio]

water bottles are counted as potions

[hasty prawn]

Or wait hang on

[ornate patio]

how can i extract the color of the slow falling potion..??

if i can somehow make the potion color to that

it might fix it

[smoky oak]

color picker?

[ornate patio]

i mean

[smoky oak]

screenshot it and put in a image editer

[young knoll]

The wiki should have it

[hasty prawn]

PotionMeta#getColor

[young knoll]

That too

[ornate patio]

it doesn't work like that lol

[young knoll]

#F7F8E0

[ornate patio]

potions are just one item

[young knoll]

Yes

[ornate patio]

you set the effect/color using the meta

[hasty prawn]

If you want the color to go away, I'd assume PotionMeta#setColor(null)

[ornate patio]

i've tried that

[ornate patio]

lemme see this

[young knoll]

Don’t think that’s valid

[ornate patio]

javadoc says its nullable

[hasty prawn]

Yeah it's Nullable

[young knoll]

Hmm

Well it still has to be some color

[hasty prawn]

It's probably inheriting the color from the CustomPotionEffects if the color is null

Which have un-modifiable colors I think

?

Maybe

[ornate patio]

wait how do i use hex values

for org.bukkit.Color

[young knoll]

Convert it to rgb

[smoky oak]

they're rgb values

[ornate patio]

you can't use hex?

damn

[young knoll]

I mean maybe you can

But why

[smoky oak]

#RRGGBB i think

[young knoll]

Yep

[ornate patio]

well

[smoky oak]

being hex two numbers can be any value from 0 to 255

[young knoll]

Just throw it on a website to convert it

Yep

[ornate patio]

it looks very close to white..

maybe just making the potion white will do it

LETS GOOO

white potions don't affect the color

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[young knoll]

Yum

Solid gold bars

[hasty prawn]

LOL

[young knoll]

Maybe I should make custom textures for my drinks

Currently I just used coloured potions

[quaint mantle]

So uhh cool

*coll

I did research on randomization

[ornate patio]

do you not drink gold daily?

[quaint mantle]

private static ItemStack getRandom(String crateType){
        ItemStack item = null;
        ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>(EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getStringList("Crates." + crateType + ".itemList"));
        
        for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {
            int index = (int)(Math.random() * list.size());

            System.out.println("Selected");

            item = new ItemStack(Objects.requireNonNull(Material.getMaterial(list.get(index))), 1);
        }

        System.out.println(item);

        return item;
    }

Idk it still doesnt work lol

Doesnt error

But it doesnt actually, select something

[young knoll]

Well if the list is empty

Nothing will work

[ancient jackal]

the bound is the parameter in nextInt(int bound)

[young knoll]

You don’t need any fancy loops, .get with a random index is fine

You get an error because the list is empty

And you can’t get a random number between 0 and 0

[quaint mantle]

Obv, its like dividing 0 by 0

its nothing

[quaint mantle]

?

[smoky oak]

random but constricted to 0-(bound-1)

random numbers for a computer are doubles between 0 and 1 inclusive

so calling nextInt(int bound) translates to return (integer) Math.random() * bound

[quaint mantle]

ah

well i have a bigger issue to fix

"Why the list is empty"

[smoky oak]

[smoky oak]

?notworking

[undone axle]

"Does not working" is a useless statement. Please describe what exactly is not working, what you expect it to do, and what actually happens. If you get any console errors, also ?paste the entire stacktrace.

[quaint mantle]

not what i said i just asked if they can help lo

[smoky oak]

just paste your question

dont just ask if someone can help you

[quaint mantle]

im trying to fix it first

and was waiting for a reply

[smoky oak]

print out list.size

is it 0?

[quaint mantle]

sec, i found a small workaround

seeing if it works

@smoky oak Any reason why this isnt working?

Function:

private static ItemStack getRandomItem(String crateType){
        Integer totalWeight = 0;
        Random rand = new Random();

        for(Map<?, ?> item: EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getMapList("Crates" + crateType)){
            totalWeight += (Integer) item.get("Weight");
        }

        double r = rand.nextDouble() * totalWeight;

        for(Map<?, ?> item: EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getMapList("Crates" + crateType)){
            if ((Integer) item.get("Weight") >= r) {
                return new ItemStack(Material.getMaterial((String) item.get("Item")), Integer.parseInt((String) item.get("Count")));
            }
        }

        return null;
    }

Config:

Crates:
  basicCrate:
      0:
        Item: DIAMOND
        Weight: 25
        Count: 5
      1:
        Item: EMERALD
        Weight: 5
        Count: 25

[smoky oak]

you're missing the period at the end of the string you call the config with

[quaint mantle]

i love my life

[smoky oak]

it needs to be "Crates."

[quaint mantle]

Fixed, still not working however

Did I type something wrong or

It seems to be returning 0.0 for total weight

[smoky oak]

FileConfiguration has specific methods to get ints

mayb you have to use those

[quaint mantle]

i cant cause item is a map

so the only valid functionality

is get

not getInteger

[smoky oak]

refractor that code then

get the collection of keys of the file config

iterate over it

call the getInt method

*configurationSection i mean

[quaint mantle]

so getConfigurationSection

[smoky oak]

ConfigurationSection cfs = EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig.getConfigurationSection("Crates."+crateType);
for(String s : cfs.getKeys()){
  totalWeight += cfs.get(s+".Weight");
}```
no guarantee

[quaint mantle]

I did this:

Integer totalWeight = 0;
        Random rand = new Random();

        ConfigurationSection cfs = EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getConfigurationSection("Crates."+crateType);

        for(String s: cfs.getKeys(false)){
            totalWeight += (Integer) cfs.get(s + ".Weight");
        }

        double r = rand.nextDouble() * totalWeight;

        for(String s: cfs.getKeys(false)){
            if ((Integer) cfs.get(s + ".Weight") >= r) {
                return new ItemStack(Material.getMaterial((String) cfs.get(s + ".Name")), Integer.parseInt((String) cfs.get(s + ".Amount")));
            }
        }

nope

[smoky oak]

did totalWeight change?

[quaint mantle]

nope

[smoky oak]

you're trying to convert object to int

that does not necessarily work

totalWeight += cfs.getInt(s+".Weight");

call getInt

[quaint mantle]

kk

@smoky oak hold on gotta reload my shockbyte server

it crashed after 24 hours lol

[smoky oak]

my server reloads itself automatically at 2AM

[quaint mantle]

oh nice

@smoky oak guess what

its still null

private static ItemStack getRandomItem(String crateType){
        int totalWeight = 0;
        Random rand = new Random();

        ConfigurationSection cfs = EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getConfigurationSection("Crates."+crateType);

        assert cfs != null;
        for(String s: cfs.getKeys(false)){
            totalWeight += cfs.getInt(s + ".Weight");
        }

        double r = rand.nextDouble() * totalWeight;

        for(String s: cfs.getKeys(false)){
            if (cfs.getInt(s + ".Weight") >= r) {
                return new ItemStack(Material.getMaterial(cfs.getString(s + ".Name")), cfs.getInt(s + ".Amount"));
            }
        }

        return null;
    }

[smoky oak]

try printing out cfs.getKeys()

maybe that's null and as such doesnt call the loop

[quaint mantle]

@smoky oak

11.03 07:20:24 [Server] Server thread/INFO 0.0 - 0
11.03 07:20:24 [Server] Server thread/INFO []

System.out.println(r + " - " + totalWeight);
        System.out.println(cfs.getKeys(false));
        System.out.println(cfs.getKeys(true));

why

it should be showing them perfectly fine

hi guys

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/minecraft/world/entity/npc/WanderingTrader
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method) ~[?:?]

has this changed in 1.18.2?

[smoky oak]

maybe how you calll the method is an issue

[quaint mantle]

how should I call it differently?

[smoky oak]

what i mean is that crateType should be equals to "basicCrate" exactly

if its not

null

[quaint mantle]

it is

[smoky oak]

cfs is not null here right?

[quaint mantle]

MemorySection[path='Crates.basicCrate', root='YamlConfiguration']

if this means it exists then yea its not null

[smoky oak]

sounds about right

[quaint mantle]

System.out.println(EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().get("Crates."+crateType));

[smoky oak]

tbf this sounds like a #help-server issue

[quaint mantle]

I was about to say

just wait

it can take a bit

well just wait for now

for a reply

[smoky oak]

wait a sec, how the fuck is cfs existing but getKeys returns nothing

[quaint mantle]

i dont know

just saying, ive NEVER been this angry while coding

i want to scream in agony, its pissing me off

bro

you're returning null 😭

        int totalWeight = 0;
        Random rand = new Random();

        ConfigurationSection cfs = EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getConfigurationSection("Crates."+crateType);

        assert cfs != null;
        for(String s: cfs.getKeys(false)){
            totalWeight += cfs.getInt(s + ".Weight");
        }

        double r = rand.nextDouble() * totalWeight;

        for(String s: cfs.getKeys(false)){
            if (cfs.getInt(s + ".Weight") >= r) {
                return new ItemStack(Material.getMaterial(cfs.getString(s + ".Name")), cfs.getInt(s + ".Amount"));
            }
        }

        return null;
    }

read your code haha

we've been there done that

[raw ibex]

why would you return null in the first place lmao

also can someone help me

i updated to 1.18.2

but

yea with what

[quaint mantle]

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/minecraft/world/entity/npc/WanderingTrader at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method) ~[?:?]

[smoky oak]

if that doesnt fix it see if EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig.getConfigurationSection("Crates.basicCrate.0.Weight") returns the actual number

[quaint mantle]

very confused

[raw ibex]

have you tried to google the error

[quaint mantle]

yeah...

its pretty self explanatory

ive tried a few things but im just stumped

[raw ibex]

no i mean google it to see if someone else had the same problem

https://bukkit.org/threads/java-lang-noclassdeffounderror-net-minecraft-world-level-level.491776/

[raw ibex]

have you checked that

[quaint mantle]

Like this correct?

maybe my mapping?

private static ItemStack getRandomItem(String crateType){
        int totalWeight = 0;
        ItemStack item = null;
        Boolean found = false;
        Random rand = new Random();

        ConfigurationSection cfs = EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getConfigurationSection("Crates."+crateType);

        assert cfs != null;
        for(String s: cfs.getKeys(false)){
            totalWeight += cfs.getInt(s + ".Weight");
        }

whoops

[quaint mantle]

nice

wait do you know where to find the mapping for each jar release

or whatever

[raw ibex]

don't you go into um

the

external libs

[quaint mantle]

i meanthe url

to find the tag

[raw ibex]

oh

idk tbh

[quaint mantle]

like i just manually changed it from 1.18.1 to 1.18.2

[raw ibex]

OH

[quaint mantle]

have a feeling maybe something chjanged

[raw ibex]

yea probably

[quaint mantle]

Nope, still not working lol

Code:

Maybe I typed my YML file wrong

or smth idk

No errors, its returning TNT, not the actual item I want btw

(I set TNT as a base so that errors dont occur)

?paste @quaint mantle

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

[raw ibex]

What's so hard

well bruv

[smoky oak]

short question, buildtools says 1.18.2 is out but latest generates 1.18.1
is 1.18.2 finalized already?

[raw ibex]

you can't access something defined in a method

you're defining item twice

[quaint mantle]

?

[raw ibex]

remove the first item

the TNT

[quaint mantle]

alright

[raw ibex]

is the ide giving you an errorr?

[quaint mantle]

Yes

It is

[raw ibex]

where?

[quaint mantle]

At return item

'Variable 'item' might not have been initialized'

[raw ibex]

exactly

wait

is it red or yellow

[quaint mantle]

Red

[raw ibex]

Ok

It's because you can't access variables outside a method

[quaint mantle]

has anyone got the mapping guide

i cant find it

so should I public it?

[raw ibex]

so what you do @quaint mantle

is this

JK JK?learnjava

[quaint mantle]

h

[raw ibex]

you need to define it before the for

so do ItemStack item;

before the for()

then it should work

[quaint mantle]

isnt it already defined before the for?

[raw ibex]

no

[quaint mantle]

OH WAIT

[raw ibex]

?

[quaint mantle]

ItemStack item;
item = new ItemStack(Material.TNT, 1);

like that?

or\

[raw ibex]

no

remove tnt

[quaint mantle]

k

[raw ibex]

there

[quaint mantle]

isnt it going to error however?

[raw ibex]

no

does it?

[quaint mantle]

Yep

error: variable item might not have been initialized
return item;
^

[raw ibex]

then the for isn't happening

[quaint mantle]

did you mean place ItemStack item ouside of getRandomItem?

so inside of public class Crate?

[raw ibex]

no

[quaint mantle]

public class Crate {
    private static ItemStack getRandomItem(String crateType){
        int totalWeight = 0;
        ItemStack item;

then idk what you mean lol

cause its deff above both for statements

so i dont have to do new Crate.getRandomItem()

or whatever

[raw ibex]

hm ok fien

[quaint mantle]

does static cause issies?

*issues

ah

[raw ibex]

well the only answer

is that your for() is not working

[earnest forum]

why not use static?

[quaint mantle]

okay wait, so how do I overwrite a statement?

[raw ibex]

you already done it

[quaint mantle]

you sure?

[raw ibex]

THIS ^^^^^

because your tnt was showing

[quaint mantle]

@raw ibex https://paste.md-5.net/agixakosuk.java

So thats correct..?

[earnest forum]

static is perfectly fine

for that

[raw ibex]

meaning that there must be no false keys

i think

@quaint mantle that should theoredically work

but that can't be the problem

[quaint mantle]

it doesnt let me create the build however

cause there is an error

anyone god the mapping guide

[raw ibex]

idk

why s+ ".Name"

is that a material?

idk

[earnest forum]

config file

i dont see why not

@raw ibex That wasnt the issue

Hmm

Why is .getKeys returning none?

what

[terse panther]

Hi, I was using a 1.18 local host, but now I must to use one in 1.16.5
However when I run BuildTools to install 1.16.5 server I get this error:
´´***The version you have requested to build requires Java versions between [Java 8, Java16], but you are usin Java 17
** Please rerun BuildTools using appropiate Java version. ´´
I understand the error, but is there a way to change it without uninstalling Java 17? Just switching the default version or something

[tender shard]

someone wanna see a funny error? https://paste.md-5.net/unocodejod.cs

[tender shard]

sure, just give the full path to your java8 installation

e.g.

C:\Program Files\Java\Java8\bin\java.exe -jar BuildTools.jar

[terse panther]

Ohh thanks!

[tender shard]

yes but you have to run buildtools beforehand

[tender shard]

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

[tender shard]

are you using git bash or the normal windows command prompt?

[terse panther]

Now I'm using windows command prompt, but I have git bash installed

[tender shard]

if you're using bash, you can just create a .bash_aliases file

so you can do java8 to run java8, java17 for java 17, etc

[terse panther]

oh nice, thanks!

I going to use it

[smoky oak]

is spigot 1.18.2 stable by now? building latest spits out 1.18.1 but buildtools says 1.18.2 is the latest version

[tender shard]

I didnt have any problems and after all it's been released almost 2 weeks ago I think

    public static Plugin fromSpiget(Plugin plugin) {
        final int id = plugin.id;
        final String name = plugin.name;
        final String thumbnail = plugin.thumbnail;
        final String version = spigetApi.getVersion(id);
        final int downloadId = spigetApi.getDownloadId(id);
        final PluginUpdate lastUpdate = spigetApi.getUpdate(id);
        final int updateId = lastUpdate.updateId();
        final long timestamp = lastUpdate.timestamp();
        return new Plugin(name, version, id, updateId, downloadId, thumbnail, timestamp);
    }

Anyone here like final local vars? lol

does anyone know if I can get rid of this warning? From what I know, I cannot check for the generic types at runtime anyway soooo isn't the whole warning pointless?

[brave sparrow]

I’d just suppress the warning

[tender shard]

yeah I just thought maybe checking at least if it's instanceof Map would avoid the warning but still, no

[brave sparrow]

Nah

[tender shard]

I just wonder why it throws a warning if it HAS to be suppressed anyway :/

there must be SOME other way I guess

[brave sparrow]

Generics are kinda fucky with that

If it wasn’t a generic you could check

[smoky oak]

cant you throw an instanceof arond that

[brave sparrow]

Not with generics

[tender shard]

no, the runtime doesn't know the generic type

[brave sparrow]

You can check instanceof Map but not instanceof Map<K, V>

[tender shard]

it gets erased on compile time

[tender shard]

yeah :/

[brave sparrow]

That’s why the warning is there lol

There’s just not a special case for generics

[tender shard]

anyone have a good idea for a name for my spigot update checker discord bot? I'll release it on SpigotMC so I need a more friendly name than "DiscordSpigotUpdateBot" lol

[kindred valley]

guys how can i get event.getplayer from non event method

[tender shard]

whut?

[kindred valley]

made an arraylist<Player>, added p in it but i need to equal p to the e.getPlayer

[tender shard]

I don't get it

[kindred valley]

        ArrayList<Player> set = new ArrayList<Player>();
        Player p = null;
        set.add(p);
    }```

[tender shard]

yeah that makes no sense

can you please just explain what you are trying to achieve

[kindred valley]

I'm trying to make the "p" be accesable from all events.

[brave sparrow]

You really need to learn Java man

[tender shard]

what "p"?

it's null

just directly use "null" whereever you need your "p"?

[tender shard]

the whole method makes no sense

[quaint mantle]

Could not find artifact org.spigotmc:spigot:jar:remapped-mojang:1.18.2-R0.1-SNAPSHOT in spigot-repo (https://hub.spigotmc.org/nexus/content/repositories/snapshots/) -> [Help 1]

do you have the name for the mapping jar(s)

[tender shard]

as I told you earlier and as the blog post also states, you have to run buildtools

[brave sparrow]

@tender shard they’re trying to add players who died to a set and reference that set later but they don’t know enough Java to accomplish it or understand what they’re even trying to do

oh

[tender shard]

ah ok

[quaint mantle]

@tender shard should the name be in the buildtools log

[tender shard]

bro

you don't need any .jars name

you are using maven to handle your dependencies

I asked you to send the log file

[sharp flare]

does package rename reflect on github after merging it directly on the main branch, I renamed my old shitty package name to all lowercase

[ivory sleet]

Yes should do, just push upstream

[sharp flare]

thanks, Was conscious on what github desktop is showing with the changes. Though it wasn't reflecting it

[sharp flare]

tried it, the package names on github are still in uppercase

[brave sparrow]

yeah just changing capitalization doesn't really work

[sharp flare]

rip

[brave sparrow]

change the name to something else and then change it back

[sharp flare]

how do I change it

[tender shard]

like you did it the last time?

[sharp flare]

I did it on github desktop, and pushed it from there

[brave sparrow]

so do it again

[tender shard]

git config core.ignorecase false

[sharp flare]

thanks the git command recognized the changes

[west oxide]

why does this not work ...

[tender shard]

because there is no constructor called TextComponent(String)

you wat to use TextComponent.fromLegacyText(String)

[west oxide]

hoiw do i make a clickable text then ? this was what i found on the internet

[west oxide]

ahh

[lavish hemlock]

Actually it depends

Are you converting from color codes

or are you creating a new component with some plain text?

[west oxide]

i dont know what you mean by this

[lavish hemlock]

Oh you're importing the wrong class

[west oxide]

yeah its the only class that intellij prompt me

[tender shard]

did you add spigot-api to your dependencies?

[lavish hemlock]

And also there is

[tender shard]

where?

[west oxide]

theres no spigot one

[lavish hemlock]

In the fucking documentation, therefore probably in the class

[tender shard]

no

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[tender shard]

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

this is the full TextComponent class

[tender shard]

yes that's outdated

[west oxide]

yeah

oh 1 sec

was this a thing on 1.8.8 ?

[tender shard]

what's your version?

[west oxide]

1.8.8

[lavish hemlock]

Lombok probably adds the constructor

[tender shard]

ugh

[lavish hemlock]

Also no this API does not exist for 1.8 iirc

[tender shard]

oh yeah I didnt think about that at all lol

[west oxide]

F

ty for the help tho

[lavish hemlock]

Also I know that constructor exists because I've seen it in 1.18 :p

[dire marsh]

meh, I prefer adventure

[tender shard]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/textcomponent-hover-in-certain-section.445906/

it seems to exist in 1.8

[lavish hemlock]

Either way you'd want a ComponentBuilder

Oh

Do you use Gradle or Maven? @west oxide

[west oxide]

yeah but i cant find this import

[west oxide]

neither

i think am using the default thing from intellij idea

[tender shard]

do you have a build.gradle file?

[lavish hemlock]

Use one, that API is not built by BuildTools

[tender shard]

do you have a pom.xml file?

[smoky oak]

nice quality

[tender shard]

yeah best screenshot ever

[west oxide]

ITS BEST I COULD DO

[tender shard]

looks like JPG with quality set to -17

[west oxide]

import net.md_5.bungee.api.chat.TextComponent;

[tender shard]

?

[tender shard]

?

[west oxide]

no

[lavish hemlock]

The Chat Component API is available from the Sonatype Maven repos

[west oxide]

neither

[tender shard]

wow lol

you should use either maven or gradle

it'll make everything so much easier

your problem is:

[lavish hemlock]

Yeah

[earnest forum]

is there a way to access nms with maven

[tender shard]

you imported spigot-api.jar

[earnest forum]

without files

i couldnt find a repo for nms

[tender shard]

but you must use the shaded .jar

[tender shard]

yes

[tender shard]

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

if you're on 1.16 or older: https://blog.jeff-media.com/using-nms-classes-with-maven/

[west oxide]

yaeh ik but i tried to and for some reason the dependency for maven of a plugin that am making an addon wouldnt work so i just used this

wait what

[tender shard]

you must use the shaded .jar file

[earnest forum]

ty

[tender shard]

or let maven handle your dependencies

[west oxide]

where can i find ?

build tools ?

[lavish hemlock]

Use Maven ffs

It's not hard to learn at all

[earnest forum]

yes buildtools

[west oxide]

.

[lavish hemlock]

Still, use Maven :p

[west oxide]

lol

[lavish hemlock]

If it "wouldn't work," then you fix it

[quaint mantle]

Hello, I'm making plugin where when you walk it spawns glowstone below you (except air). So I was wondering how do I create function for every time event gets triggered (im trying to replace glowstone with old block after 1 second)

import org.bukkit.Location;
import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.World;
import org.bukkit.block.Block;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerMoveEvent;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;


public class PlayerMoveListener implements Listener {




    @EventHandler
    public void onMovement(PlayerMoveEvent e) {

        Player player = e.getPlayer();
        World world = player.getWorld();
        Block block = player.getLocation().subtract(0, 1, 0).getBlock();
        Material type = block.getType();
        if(type != Material.GLOWSTONE && type != Material.AIR) {
            block.setType(Material.GLOWSTONE);
            player.sendMessage("asd");
            block.setType(type);
        }
        }
        
}```

[west oxide]

i asked the dev and he told me that some server is down and he cant fix rn

[earnest forum]

u can add file dependencies

[west oxide]

yoo thank you

[earnest forum]

in maven

[west oxide]

how

[earnest forum]

google it

[lavish hemlock]

Yeah you can use file dependencies

[earnest forum]

ive done it before

[west oxide]

i didnt know that

[tender shard]

<scope>system</scope> but

[west oxide]

yeah i ll just do that

[tender shard]

that's not really supported

you should rather install local files to your repo

[earnest forum]

does work tho]

[tender shard]

using mvn install:install-file

[tender shard]

today yes, tomorrow it might be removed

[lavish hemlock]

you should probably give him the full rundown

[tender shard]

I'll write a blog post on how to manually install .jars to maven repo

[west oxide]

okay i will try that

thank you guys

[tender shard]

for what exactly?

[tender shard]

aaah I see

[west oxide]

this

yeah

[lavish hemlock]

Also this is why you don't use your own repos ;)

Maven Central go brrrr

[west oxide]

btw

@lavish hemlock are you the on on the forums ?

i ve seen a similar pfp to yours many times

[lavish hemlock]

yeah I'm the on on the forums

[west oxide]

ooh thats nice

[tacit drift]

so you want to replace it only for 1 second?

[lavish hemlock]

but no my forum profile is

a lil different

[west oxide]

yeah nvm

[lavish hemlock]

lmao

[west oxide]

mb i thought this was you lol

[lavish hemlock]

I'm still not quite sure what "the on on the forums" means

it's not quite English

[quaint mantle]

yes

[west oxide]

yeah its just that i see that guy alot of times

[lavish hemlock]

What does that have to do with what I said

[tacit drift]

I would suggest using fake blocks

[digital haven]

You could use a scheduler

[tacit drift]

so no permanent things are made

[quaint mantle]

I want it to make block under player glowstone, wait 1 second and set it back to original block

[west oxide]

i meant by "the one on the forums" the guy i showed you the pfp of rn and cuz i thought it was you but apparently its notl
am just dumb lol mb

[quaint mantle]

ill try that

[earnest forum]

run task later

[lavish hemlock]

Well either way I wouldn't know who you're talking about

[digital haven]

^^

[lavish hemlock]

I have a forum account but "the one" is not descriptive

[tacit drift]

Player#sendBlockChange

@quaint mantle

[lavish hemlock]

This is me

[west oxide]

well if you had the same name/pfp from your forums acc on your discord and was active on forums you would have probably thought that i recognized you from forums

F

[lavish hemlock]

I mean

I'm also verified

That means my forum name matches my Discord name

[earnest forum]

i think they are trying to do like a trail thing

for all players to see

[west oxide]

ur pfp isnt so

[tender shard]

to whoever needed mvn install: https://blog.jeff-media.com/manually-installing-jar-files-to-your-local-maven-repository/

[tacit drift]

Send it to all players

[tender shard]

@west oxide I think it was you

[west oxide]

yes

[tacit drift]

But that's the safest way to do it anyway

[earnest forum]

why not just do a scheduler task?

[tacit drift]

a scheduler that does what?

[earnest forum]

sets block

then 20 ticks later set it back

[digital haven]

You could loop through all the players and set that block so it doesn't change the map

Oops

Replied to wrong person

[tacit drift]

And if the server crashes or something happens, the changes are permanent
