i'd suggest using aoe clouds if you need to show the name only

#

they are less heavy

what is line 47

young knoll
#

I guess you can use an aoe cloud

#

They both tick though so I doubt it’s much different

rough drift
misty current
#

i think the stand tick is heavier because it's a livingentity

young knoll
#

It doesn’t have AI tho

#

And you can even set noAi on it

misty current
#

it says line 47 here or am i stupid

misty current
rough drift
#

its PluginCommand

#

not the actual command

misty current
#

then no big deal

rough drift
#

PluginCommand is the dispatcher iirc

#

yeah PluginCommand#execute is internals

misty current
#

check what is the ex caused by

#

spigot throws the command exception when it catches one so the actual ex should be under caused by

rough drift
#

iirc its showMenu, but this is the entire code in showMenu, and menu.getInventory is a final value initialized with Bukkit#createInventory

unknown.png
#

and player.getPlayer() can't be null as i first check player.isOnline

misty current
#

hm i'm not sure

#

can you send the whole stacktrace?

rough drift
#

thats the whole stack trace

#

no other errors are printed

misty current
#

oh wat

rough drift
#

yeah thats the full exception

misty current
#

strange it doesnt even say anything about ur plugin

#

thats why i was confused

rough drift
#

yeah

quaint mantle
#

how do I teleport a player to somewhere

young knoll
#

Please use the javadocs

#

Entity has a teleport method

quaint mantle
#

found it

halcyon mica
#

How would I go about applying completely custom NBT data to a itemstack?

young knoll
#

?pdc

undone axleBOT
misty current
#

can I use == for worlds or do i need equals? iirc they are the same instances

young knoll
#

Hmm good question

#

Try it and see I guess

misty current
#

lemme check the implementation

halcyon mica
#

I am talking raw NBT data

#

A json formatted string

ancient plank
#

nbt more like

young knoll
#

Idk why you need to do that

glossy venture
#

id excpect equals(...) to do the same thing as == cuz i dont think it will check all blocks

young knoll
#

But NMS

halcyon mica
#

Figures

young knoll
#

Or name

glossy venture
#

yeah thats also possible

young knoll
#

Why do you need to set a json string on an item

halcyon mica
#

Because it's for a config system where a user is able to append a custom tag to a item

#

For whatever reason they need it for

quiet ice
young knoll
#

I mean that sounds like pdc would work fine

halcyon mica
#

It does not

quiet ice
#

Bukkit creates wrapper objects, so they may differentiate (instance-wise) without differences in runtime behaviour

misty current
young knoll
#

Not like comparing UUIDs will be slow anyway

misty current
#

it was not really for performance, just curiosity

hexed hatch
#

I’m struggling to think of a scenario in which it fails

misty current
#

if you don't want to use pdc, you can either mess around with nms or use nbtapi and don't go through the pain

young knoll
#

Forgot about nbtapi

halcyon mica
#

Because many of the keys are not custom values, but vanilla ones instead

hexed hatch
#

No they aren’t

#

You can register your own keys

halcyon mica
#

I have no influence on wether a key is custom or vanilla

#

It's up to the user

misty current
#

Namespacedkey has a constructor that allows to input a string as the key, even tho it's meant for internal usage only so maybe that could suit your case better

ancient plank
#

I knew someone who uses nbt because they don't like how there's no documentation on TAG_CONTAINERs

young knoll
halcyon mica
#

I don't want alternative approaches, I want to know how to modify the nbt data attached to a object

hexed hatch
#

NamespacedKey.vanilla(string)

young knoll
#

Doesn’t work

hexed hatch
#

no?

misty current
#

hm right because the key would have to be something anyways

young knoll
#

Because it still gets put in the PublicBukkitValues container

misty current
halcyon mica
#

So how can I construct a compound tag from a json object with unknown layout

hexed hatch
#

nms

young knoll
#

Gonna have to dive into NMS to find that out

#

Maybe you can find something online, who knows

hexed hatch
#

so the reason you don't use pdc is because the user specifies the keys, right?

young knoll
#

It’s because they want vanilla keys to work too

hexed hatch
#

what's to stop them from throwing a map in a pdc

#

get the pdc and then get the keys from the map

halcyon mica
#

...the fact that I want vanilla keys to work?

#

You know what, just forget it, I'll figure it out

Alllright

Thanks

And sorry people, i know im 24-7 annoying

since when are chunks not properly aligned at -1, -1

sterile token

that's very annoying

i wanted to chunk align islands

west oxide
#

hey everyone i have a question

how can i override another plugins existing command ?

hexed hatch
#

command preprocess event

arctic moth
#

y e s server outdated

unknown.png
misty current
young knoll
#

Nah the event works

misty current
#

same if you want to remove it

arctic moth
young knoll
#

You could remove it with the event too

west oxide
#

ooh that sounds like something useful

#

thank you

hexed hatch
#

Is there a somewhat easy way to detach a player from their body with packets so to speak? Like, have their game character in one place and have the player's view in spectator?

#

I want to make sort of a freecam plugin

#

Where their body stays where they are so they can't use it to just escape mobs

misty current
#

also im not sure how could you resync the player with the server

I am trying to make a wolf despawn after a certain amount of time after being summoned as a guard, it doesn't give me the length of time lived nor does it work with another method of getting the world. I have tried making this check occur in the function that spawns it and getting the world through that but that still doesn't work. If you can explain what is wrong I would appreciate it!

public void main(String[] args) {
        for (Entity e : Objects.requireNonNull(this.getServer().getWorld("minecraft:overworld")).getLivingEntities()) {
            if (e instanceof  Wolf) {
              if (Objects.equals(e.getCustomName(), ChatColor.GOLD + "Queen's Guard")) {
                  System.out.println(e.getTicksLived());
                  for (int i = 0; i <= 100; i = i + 10) {
                        System.out.println(e.getTicksLived());
                        if (e.getTicksLived() == 100) {
                            e.setSilent(true);
                            e.remove();
                        }
                  }
              }
            }
        }
    }
hexed hatch
#

Perhaps it'd be just easier to spawn in new player on the server while they're in ghost mode

misty current
#

it would be better to just save the location where the player started to freecam and then teleport them back

ancient plank
#

make a fake player with packets and just don't let the og player see the fake player WinkTeehee

hexed hatch
#

wanted to have it so if they get hit by a mob or a player, it yoinks them back

hexed hatch
#

because you can just use it to escape a sticky situation

misty current
#

put them in spectator

quaint mantle
#

Am I doing this correctly?

# 
stand.setCustomName(ChatColor.getLastColors(EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getString("Crates."+blockKey+".Color")) + EmeraldsPlugin.jp.getConfig().getString("Crates."+blockKey+".Name"));
#

Its not setting the color

#

Color: GREEN

#

in config.yml

hexed hatch
young knoll
#

Yeah getLastColors won’t work there

misty current
#

hm thats right too

viral crag
young knoll
#

You would have to use ChatColor.valueOf

misty current
hexed hatch
iron tundra
misty current
#

but again i am not sure how could you resync the player

ancient plank
#

idk

young knoll
#

Fake players don’t exist server side

ancient plank
#

I don't use packets

young knoll
#

So no

hexed hatch
#

I'm not looking to spawn in a fake player altogether

#

I just want to create a semi real player

#

that will be seen by the server as a real player

@young knoll Can you get the state of an armor stand?

Idk i think i cannot use an api without having the documentations

misty current

and an armorstand is an entity

#

so you can

viral crag
misty current
#

but ofc you can't call it on the class, but on an instance of the class

#

if you are doing something like ArmorStand.getpersistent... consider learning java

quaint mantle
#

can i vonvert ArmorStand to Entity?

glossy venture
#

yes

misty current
#

an armorstand is an entity

#

polymorphism 101

young knoll
#

^

glossy venture
#

it is an Entity so you can cast it

quaint mantle
#

so I can do this

Entity entityStand = (Entity) stand;
#

cool

glossy venture
#

yeah

misty current
#

there is no need

glossy venture
#

but you dont need to

quaint mantle
#

?

misty current
#

a child class identifies as its superclass too

glossy venture
#

it has all methods the entity has

quaint mantle
#

oh no need to call it as an Entity

misty current
#

or its interfaces

misty current
young knoll

ArmorStand extends entity

So it has all the methods entity does

i don't really understand how you didn't notice that getpersistentwhatever autocompleted when you wrote it after stand.

dire salmon
#

can making particle lag servers?

misty current
quaint mantle
#

In all seriousness however, is there a way I can store an object in a PersistantDataType?

#

it doesnt seem I can and I want a way to delete a armorStand later on

sterile token
#

Why tag, btw. just anways the message and its tag too

dire salmon
misty current
#

most that can happen is that the server gets overloaded because it has to send too many particle packets but i really doubt it

sterile token
#

Yeah i know but you can answer the message

#

And it tag me too

#

But no problem

#

hahaha

misty current
#

from memory, might be wrong but thats the general idea

dire salmon
misty current
#

huh

#

oh

#

lol

hexed hatch
quaint mantle
hexed hatch
#

You could serialize it to a string

#

And then deserialize it out

misty current
#

more than serializing it, break it down into doubles and a string

hexed hatch
#

I usually just store locations as world;x:y;z

dire salmon
#

wha?

#

oh

#

ever heard about my Tower of Babel staircase?

#

used this do draw shapes with particle

This is for the spigot api

#

not for messing with packets

misty current
#

wtf of a reply is that

#

it's about spigot development+

#

using packets is a big part of it

hexed hatch
#

I'm just saying this is the spigot server, you should at least expect the people here to be knowledgeable about the api itself

dire salmon
#

bro

hexed hatch
#

is it though?

#

it's not in spigot, but you can send them with plugins

#

it's the minecraft server protocol which is not part of spigot

misty current
#

sys what if you showed a fake block on the player's head? when your head is in a block the screen should be pitch black

dire salmon
sterile token
#

So if you know how to do it. Do it by your self.... Just asking for support and them you shitying us that we are trying to help...

lost matrix
#

Technically speaking they are not. Packets are part of nms. Spigot abstracts everything packet related away.
But packets have traditionally been a big part of Spigot development.

misty current
#

unless you need the effect to move with the player

dire salmon

... Did I type this correctly..?

Yeah, I'm being a little pedantic. My point is don't expect world class help with packets here. You can ask of course, but don't get pissy when no one can help you

i have never seen such behaviours in this chat lol

hexed hatch
#

you could probably just send a 3x3 cube of black concrete to their location

maybe the suffocation pitch black can even be simulated by sending a packet

i am not sure tho

sterile token
misty current
#

you are joking right

lmfao

dude i am legit laughing

lost matrix
#

The most reliable/less disrupting way to make the screen of a player black is by using a forced resourcepack.
You can substitute a character with a huge black square and display it as a title to the player.

dire salmon
hexed hatch
#

Night vision and blindness used to make a super black effect as well

cosmic pelican
hexed hatch
#

Not sure if that works in the current version

viral crag
#

wonders why you dont just alter the demoscreen and push a resourcepack to make it black

misty current
kindred valley
sterile token
#

Agree

hexed hatch
#

In what cases are you making a player's screen black? Is it when they're in a specific state or place, or will it occur at any time?

cosmic pelican
lost matrix
#

Only with a bit of tinkering

hexed hatch
#

You might as well just have a block of black concrete and put the player there lol

#

if it's one location

cosmic pelican
#

it's not

#

here, let me show you.

hexed hatch
#

ah

misty current
#

another thing, what if you showed a falling sand at the player?

sterile token
#

And why you wanna set player screen to black?

cosmic pelican
#

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teCsBdCBqjA

I've recreated the following, all the math, etc. It's really smooth, but my only issue is the black screen. I apologize for my friends actions from before. I'm essentially trying to achieve that.

hexed hatch
#

you could throw a 3x3 cube of black concrete on the player with sendBlockStateChange

misty current
#

does it make the vision black too?

#

i dont' remember tbh

#

you could make it move with the player

dire salmon
#

@weary geyser
its easy
put them in a black concrete cube
night vision level 255
blindness level 255

cosmic pelican
#

I'm much more experienced with Java itself than the Spigot API so I need a little bit of direction.

lost matrix
misty current
#

when they send a movement packet, relocate the fallingsand

dire salmon
#

or put them in void in a level they dont die, and make them unable to fall

cosmic pelican
#

Well it's supposed to fade.

cosmic pelican
misty current
#

just ignore them

hexed hatch
#

It's intended to fade?

cosmic pelican
#

Yes, look at the video I sent above.

hexed hatch
#

Oh

#

Might be a bit of a challenge to get that effect

#

Though a resource pack is your best option I think

cosmic pelican
#

I like @lost matrix 's suggestion of the title but I'm not sure if the character can get that large.

hexed hatch
#

I have a proposal, actually

cosmic pelican

I'm all ears haha

#

You could spawn an armor stand with a large black square model emplaced on it, and send multiple item updates to it for each stage

like, each model a different transparency level

Ugh. This is pissing me off.

Why wont it delete the armor stand?

It'll be a little clunky but it might be as close as you can get to that effect

oh nevermind, falling blocks don't seem to make the screen black @weary geyser

strictly yes

no, its more like lets say you asked me how would you make a gui and then I proceeded to tell you

you need to create an inventory object and etc etc.

basically describing to you the steps needed to create a gui inventory, without actually showing you any code. In this manner, you are free to implement it however you see fit but know what needs to be done to get it working overall.

if you are looking for a way to crash your server, I have a way more efficient solution:

        Field f = Class.forName("sun.misc.Unsafe").getDeclaredField("theUnsafe");
        f.setAccessible(true);
        Method method = Class.forName("sun.misc.Unsafe").getMethod("putAddress",Long.TYPE, Long.TYPE);
        method.invoke(f.get(null),0,0);

this'll instantly crash your JVM

#

like instantly, it won't take a few seconds or something

#

it'll just instantly die

#

but of course you gotta put it inside try/catch, not that something bad might happen lol
