[sterile token]

I looks retarded

😕

[ivory sleet]

well okay let me ask you, what are you going to do with the data?

[sterile token]

Let say i will save a custom class object params into mongo

And when plugin enable load each class object data, with each mongo object data

[ivory sleet]

oh okay

[sterile token]

Understand?

[ivory sleet]

so you have a data model in code which you want to represent the data from mongo?

I mean that makes things easier

[sterile token]

Yeah

[young knoll]

Mongo let’s you just directly serialize and deserialize POJOs

[sterile token]

Hmn?

Please dont confuse more me

Im already really confuse

Conclure this my class object

[ivory sleet]

serialize:
Taking your "class object data", transforming it into json

deserialize:
taking the json, transforming it into "class object data"

[crimson terrace]

How would one have language options for their plugin? would an enum be the proper way of doing it with the selection for languages being in the config?

[ivory sleet]

ResourceBundles is probably the best way

[waxen plinth]

lomb🤢k

[crimson terrace]

I'll look into it

[sterile token]

Me?

[ivory sleet]

no to Shreb

[sterile token]

Oh

What abotu me? :D

[ivory sleet]

whats node?

[sterile token]

Node is another object class

[quaint mantle]

yay or nay

[tardy delta]

exposing a list grr

[ivory sleet]

wat

[sterile token]

Im saivng to mongo:

List<Rank> ranks = new ArrayList<>();

void save() {
  this.ranks.foreach(rank -> Mongo#update("ranks", new Document().append("name", rank.getName()).append("nodes", rank.getNodes())));
}

But i dont know how read each object from mongo

[ivory sleet]

may I ask what library you use

[sterile token]

Mongo driver?

[ivory sleet]

alright

[sterile token]

So what i can do?

Im too much confused

I dont wanna skidd from a plugin the mongo part

I will prob search on github mongo examples

[ivory sleet]

well

in principle MongoDatabase::getCollection

[sterile token]

Yeah i know

[ivory sleet]

then just ::find (which gives you a cursor)

[sterile token]

I jsut send in that way to short the code

I already done, i just dont know how to loop through each document object

MongoDatabase#getCollection("ranks")#find();

And there i mstuck

[ivory sleet]

okay so I looked it up, havent done mongo in some time

[sterile token]

Allright no problem

[ivory sleet]

but supposedly you should iterate over find

[sterile token]

Hmn

[ivory sleet]

so like

[vale ember]

is 1.18.2 the same 1_18_R1 nms or not?

[kindred valley]

hey

public class HealMe implements CommandExecutor {
    @Override
    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender commandSender, Command command, String s, String[] strings) {
        Player p = (Player)commandSender;
        if(p.getHealth() <= 0.5F) {
            if(command.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("healme")){
                Bukkit.dispatchCommand(p, "givemoney hastane 2000");
                Location hastane = new Location(p.getWorld(), 192, 4, 799);
                p.teleport(hastane);
                p.setHealth(20F);
                p.setWalkSpeed(0.2F);
                p.sendTitle("Iyilestin", "Durumun Iyi");
            }
        }
        return true;
    }
}```

[hybrid spoke]

good heal command

[kindred valley]

im trying to make if

i can control the situation player does not have money

[ivory sleet]

try (MongoCursor<Document> cursor = find(new Document()).iterator()) {
  while (cursor.hasNext()) {
    Document document = cursor.next();
  }
}
```@sterile token

maybe

[kindred valley]

Bukkit.dispatchCommand(p, "givemoney hastane 2000"); i want to control if player has 2000$ dollars

how can i

im using The New Economy

[hybrid spoke]

by using the api of the economy plugin

[sonic phoenix]

Hello, i'm trying to disable craft with custom items but it doesn't work, can someone explain me why ?

@EventHandler
public void craftItem(CraftItemEvent event) {
    System.out.println("Testing craft item event");
    CraftingInventory inv = event.getInventory();
    for(ItemStack stack : inv.getStorageContents()) {
        System.out.println(stack.getItemMeta().getDisplayName());
        if(CustomPaper.contains(stack)) {
            event.setCancelled(true);
        }
    }
}```

[chrome beacon]

Does it print

[sonic phoenix]

nope

And CustomPaper is the list who contain the items

[chrome beacon]

Did you register the listener

[sonic phoenix]

Yup

just here

getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new CraftSecure(), this);```

[quaint mantle]

How would I make a falling chest spawn randomly in the sky near me

[zenith spire]

Is it possible to make any Item edible? In my case diamonds

[molten hearth]

wait, by on the server, do you mean on every server where the message is being received or just on the bungee server

[sterile token]

On the server you want to receive

[molten hearth]

alright ty

[sterile token]

So if you wanna receive messages on Lobby at least one player should be online

[jovial sparrow]

I am making a plugin that applies potion effects to players who are wearing armor, is it more efficient (server resources efficient, not time efficient) to check the armor of every player on the server every X amount of time or to use Listeners on all relevant events and check if the player has equipped the armor?

[tardy delta]

listeners

[sterile token]

For checking player related things use listeners

Because they will be called once the player do something

And no everytime

[devout canyon]

how do I prevent ClassNotFoundException from happening between maven modules when dependencies look correct and I have the shade plugin included?

[gusty gorge]

Can I set custom colors as a bossbar color (such as gold) in the createBossBar method, if so how?

[chrome beacon]

Double check your shade configuration

[sterile token]

In last version you can use custom color by it hex id

[devout canyon]

I think I'm just confused on how shade works, I'll look into that more

[sterile token]

Send your pom in ?paste

Why doesnt work lmao

[devout canyon]

I have 4 poms, idk if I can fit them in one

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[jovial sparrow]

In this case, I would have to put listeners on InventoryClickEvent, PlayerInteractEvent, and DispenserArmorEvent wouldn't this result in me running code more often than just running a check on all players every 5-15 seconds?

[devout canyon]

I was looking up how to do versioned plugins and many people suggested to follow the example of AnvilGUI, and it has worked up until actually running the server in which case the exception happens

[tardy delta]

how would i call a method that removes an user after some time?

btw

how to make an api of a plugin

[zenith spire]

Is it possible to make any Item consumable? In my case diamonds

[crimson terrace]

yes, if you dont want it to make the eating animation its actually really easy

you just have to check the PlayerInteractEvent for the item, in your case a diamond, then upon right click or whatever you reduce the amount in the ItemStack by one.

[tardy delta]

after some time?

[devout canyon]

I don't think you can detect a player holding down a mouse button sadly

[zenith spire]

Thanks helps me a lot

[crimson terrace]

np

[crimson terrace]

you can enhance this by only making special diamonds consumable or things like that by checking the PDC for a special key or something you set at another time.

hey im having trouble preserving comments in my file, how do i keep them when i set values

it keeps the first comment but not the rest

[chrome beacon]

What version are you on?

This looks cringe

        lore.forEach(s -> {

                    switch (s1.substring(1)) {
                        case "_player_name" -> ref.toAdd = ref.toAdd.replace("%" + number + "_player_name%", OpUtils.getNameFromUUID(pet.getOwnerUUID()));

                                case TOP_PRESTIGE -> ref.toAdd = ref.toAdd.replace("%" + number + "_player_object%", new PrestigeManager().getFilledPrestige(pet.getPrestige()));
                                case TOP_EXPERIENCE -> ref.toAdd = ref.toAdd.replace("%" + number + "_player_object%", String.valueOf(pet.getPetExperience()));
                                default -> throw new IllegalStateException("Unexpected value: " + leaderboard.getType());
                            }

1.8

[young knoll]

Ah

[kindred valley]

what the fuck is bigdecimal

[young knoll]

Spigot doesn’t support comments on 1.8

[tardy flame]

wait what

[young knoll]

What

[tardy flame]

comments are based on spigot?

[young knoll]

What

[zenith spire]

I'm trying to increase a players potioneffect but it stops when i run this line:
player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.REGENERATION, 999999, player.getPotionEffect(PotionEffectType.REGENERATION).getAmplifier() + 1));
Am i doing something wrong?

[sterile token]

With my custom file handler you can keep your commented messages - https://paste.md-5.net/ecedisedux.java

[sacred mountain]

usage?

[young knoll]

That looks to only be for copying the file out of the jar

Which should preserve comments anyway

[grim ice]

holy shit

[sacred mountain]

yeah no i can copy my values out, but when i set the values in that config they disaapear

[tardy flame]

https://tenor.com/view/theoffice-dyinginside-gif-7480788

[zenith spire]

I use it in PlayerInteractEvent. broadcastmessage before this line works the one after it doesn't get excecuted

[young knoll]

You’ll have to search for a third party library

[chrome beacon]

Yeah... update to 1.18 or create your own thing to add comments

[young knoll]

Spigot 1.8 did not preserve comments in yaml

Except for the header

[sacred mountain]

thats fine but

my other files do

preserve

[grim ice]

why is ref.toAdd, why not just use s

[sacred mountain]

using my merger

[tardy flame]

since you can't use lambda variable without declaring it final or doing like this

i probably could just do a final temp s

which could look better-

[grim ice]

okay i guess start by removing obfuscation

ur variable names suck

[tardy flame]

i know

at least here

:boohoo:

[simple anvil]

what is the best event to use to get the item in the main hand?

[tardy flame]

all of them,

                if (!eachString.startsWith("%") && !eachString.endsWith("%")) {
                    return;
                }
                String replaced = eachString.replace("%", "");
                int number = Integer.parseInt(eachString.replaceAll("[A-z]", "")) - 1;
                Pet pet = pets.get(number);

                switch (replaced.substring(2)) {
                    case "player_name" -> finalString[0] = finalString[0].replace("%" + number + "_player_name%", OpUtils.getNameFromUUID(pet.getOwnerUUID()));
                    case "player_object" -> {
                        switch (leaderboard.getType()) {
                            case TOP_LEVEL -> finalString[0] = getObject(finalString[0], number, String.valueOf(pet.getLevel()));
                            case TOP_PRESTIGE -> finalString[0] = getObject(finalString[0], number, new PrestigeManager().getFilledPrestige(pet.getPrestige()));
                            case TOP_EXPERIENCE -> finalString[0] = getObject(finalString[0], number, String.valueOf(pet.getPetExperience()));
                            default -> throw new IllegalStateException("Unexpected value: " + leaderboard.getType());
                        }

                    default -> throw new IllegalStateException("Unexpected value: " + replaced);
                }

            });
            list.add(FormatUtils.formatMessage(finalString[0]));

Creating player specific config files would seem the best imo

[quaint mantle]

Any tutorials?

[gusty gorge]

Or a hash map

[vocal cloud]

Use a database.

[sterile token]

Agree

[quaint mantle]

I have 0 idea how to use MySQL

Because im so retarded that driver its telling me that the host is invalid. when the address is the same that provide me Mongo atlas cloud

😡

[midnight shore]

Ty very much

[zenith spire]

What do i need to put in the .contains()?

[wet breach]

I don't really use mongo, but I am sure its probably no different then using SQL to set the host?

[sterile token]

Yeah, the problem is that altlas cloud giveme an ip, that doesnt work or idk.

[gusty gorge]

Can some1 tell me why the progress of the bossbar stays empty while setting it with setProgress(intWithMax100 / 100)

[sterile token]

Because mongo driver thrown HostNotFoundExceotion

[crimson terrace]

whatever you want to check for

[sterile token]

So either im dumb or host is dumb

[wet breach]

is the host suppose to contain a string or does the host object accept an ipaddress object?

also quite possible you need to specify the port too

theres nothing to compare it to a vanilla recipe on the docs

Cast the recipe to keyed and get the key

The key will be “minecraft:xyz” for vanilla stuff

that helps tysm

doesn't mean it is correct

yea but im holding a compass

getItemInUse is for bows and stuff

Use event.getItem

the domain is valid I looked it up in the sense that someone does own the domain, however in DNS it doesn't have any records to point anywhere as I get no host found.

[fluid nacelle]

Could I get your opinions?

I'm enabling players to set traps where if players walk over these traps, they are stuck in place for 5 seconds (I'll just set their walk speed to 0 for 5 seconds). To detect when these traps are used, I'm thinking of having it set a pressure plate server-side, then send packets to players to make it look like there's nothing there and listen for RedstoneBlockEvent or whatever you call it and make sure the source is a pressure plate then make sure the location matches and if so, find the nearest player (nearbyEntities of 1 or 2 radius?) or the other two alternatives are to make a runnable that runs every 0.5 seconds or so that listens for all trap locations for entities within the radius of 1 or 2 (whatever triggers it), or using PlayerMoveEvent

Which do you think would be most efficient out of those 3 methods?

[simple anvil]

 Player p = e.getPlayer();
        if (e.getItem().getType().equals(Material.COMPASS)){
            p.sendMessage("Hi");
        }else if(e.getItem() == null){
            return;
        }

still getting the error when not item in hand

[grim ice]

ibruh

[sterile token]

Have you read the jaavdocs?

[fluid nacelle]

If e.getItem() is null then using getType() on it will give you a NPE

[grim ice]

ur doing that check before the second one

[wet breach]

your if check is backwards

[grim ice]

lmao

[wet breach]

you should check for null first

not last

[grim ice]

java doesnt read line 2 before line 1 lol

[fluid nacelle]

Or just
if(e.getItem() != null && e.getItem().getType().equals(Material.COMPASS()){} xD

[simple anvil]

new that

just testing u

[fluid nacelle]

Anyway any of you know?

[wet breach]

if you don't want anything displayed, why even bother with a fake item to begin with?

you could just skip that and go based on location

[fluid nacelle]

I mean server-side pressureplate, client side nothing therefore it triggers the redstone event

[hybrid spoke]

you wont need that pressure plate if nobody is supposed to see it

[wet breach]

you can activate redstone without the pressure plate

[hybrid spoke]

he means he wanna use the event when someone steps on the plate

not to activate something

[wet breach]

setting the power on the block should do the same

[grim ice]

imagine stepping on people plates

rude

[wet breach]

but, I mean you could remove all that if its location based anyways

once the location matches where a trap is recorded to be, then do something

don't need the redstone even to do that

also don't need fake items

so doing all those things just adds unnecessary steps and complexity

if you want them to hear a sound, you can send a sound to the client to play based on the location as well

[fluid nacelle]

Let's say there's 50+ players online and there's 5 traps set somewhere in some game where the game has 16 or so people and the traps only apply to 9 of them as a scenario, I could use a runnable and check for nearby entities for those traps that meet the criteria, or I could use a player move listener that checks if they're in the same world then compares location distance as well as checking the criteria to make sure it applies to them, alternatively there's the redstone event I mentioned.

[wet breach]

if the traps are in a specific world, then make a list of the players that could only be possible

[hybrid spoke]

to get back to the topic: i would probably go location based with a timer. PlayerMoveEvent is too frequently called for just location-checking/player and spamming the players with packets seems exaggerated and redundant

[wet breach]

then in the move listener, if they are not those players in that world ignore them anyways

you don't need the redstone event for this, playermoveevent is sufficient

[devout canyon]

I got shade mostly working, and the log says that's including the other jars into the shaded jar, but when I open the jar file it only has the resource folder and pom 😐

[fluid nacelle]

I guess, I'd need to do it every time they render the chunk anyway so just listening every half a second or so is probably most efficient

[wet breach]

Just because the playermoveevent is called frequently doesn't mean you shouldn't use it or that it is inefficient

[fluid nacelle]

aka checking if they're in the same world or not, the event will still trigger whether they're in the world player list or not xD

[lost matrix]

I would opt for how regions are grouped in worldguard.
Create chunk buckets and BoundingBoxes. Then the PlayerMoveEvent will have only a tiny overhead even with a ton of players online.

[lean gull]

hi am back, does anyone have a good tutorial on multiple config files? preferably ones that explains the code and what each line does

[wet breach]

you can return from your event if the player isn't valid

[hybrid spoke]

in this case there is a better option which should be preferred. why would you spam your checks for x players * 3 traps if you could just loop over those 3 traps every 0.5 secs?

[fluid nacelle]

Not a bad idea, but I likely won't be using worldguard

[young knoll]

No one said you had to

[lost matrix]

So basically like this but instead of having an IntSet you have a List<BoundingBox>
So you only check the chunk the player is currently in. Then its still O(n) for all boxes mapped to this chunk but
extremely fast on the global scale

[wet breach]

because checking numbers isn't inefficient if you setup the checks right. First check is if the player is valid, not hard to setup the list of players valid for a given world, second you just check if the player that moved, is in the same location as a trap. Not hard to setup a map where the key is the location. How many times it runs isn't going to make a difference until it actually does something.

[wet breach]

this is actually pretty good

[lost matrix]

And if you want to really squeeze out every last bit of performance you wouldnt use the PlayerMoveEvent but
use an evenly distributed runnable where every player gets checked every 20 ticks. So not all players at once
but each individual player has a delta of 20 ticks between each check

So instead of 100 players every 20 ticks you check 5 player every tick

[wet breach]

you could do this, still don't think you need to go to this extreme though. Especially if you only need to care about a single world for this XD

[grim ice]

yeah that was a cool thing to learn

[wet breach]

Either way, you don't need to get super complex with this. Keeping it simple is the better way to go lol. 7smile7's way isn't super complex even for the distributed runnable

[lost matrix]

Yeah probably overkill. The method mentioned above had < 0.1% tick time on the PlayerMoveEvent with 70 concurrent players online and several hundred boxes on a world.

[fluid nacelle]

If there's multiple games running at once, it's not just a single world lol, anyway I'm just going to check every 0.5 seconds or so, maybe more/less frequently pending testing as well as once a trap is activated, check if any remain and if not, stop checking, continues when at least 1 other trap is placed down

[hybrid spoke]

petition for smile to make a performance resource

if there isnt already one

[grim ice]

like how to optimize?

if so he did

[wet breach]

there is many ways to optimize stuff

[hybrid spoke]

there is always a way to optimize stuff

[grim ice]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/guide-beginners-guide-on-improving-your-codes-performance.396161/

maybe thats what u mean

[lost matrix]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/guide-on-workload-distribution-or-how-to-handle-heavy-splittable-tasks.409003/
Or this 😄

[wet breach]

however, most of the time you don't need the extreme optimizations unless you hit that point that is all you have left to do to improve performance on your server

that is, most people don't have large enough servers to warrant such extremes

[grim ice]

i always do the maximum i can do

except for realllllllllly small projects

[patent horizon]

can anyone link me to a resource for editing players names in tablist? all im finding is forum posts of broken code

[grim ice]

do u wanna prefix it or change it

[simple anvil]

if (!(sender instanceof Player)){
            sender.sendMessage("Only players can use this command");
            return true;
        }

        if (command.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("ci")){
            SelectionScreen gui = new SelectionScreen();
            p.openInventory(gui.getInventory());
            p.sendMessage(ChatColor.AQUA + "please make a selection");
        }

should the bottom if statment be in the top else statment?

[lost matrix]

Yes 99% of servers shouldnt need to optimize much. People sometimes underestimate how powerful modern
CPUs are. As long as you prevent crucial mistakes like IO on the main thread you should be fine.

[patent horizon]

change it. prefixes, different name colors based on ranks, suffixes

[devout canyon]

ok the shade thing is working now, it wasn't including the jars, but I set the Google JSON dependency scope to provided, and now it's working. I got the correct structure from here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21021485/how-to-configure-maven-shade-plugin-in-a-multi-module-project

[ancient jackal]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#setDisplayName(java.lang.String)

[grim ice]

u prob shouldnt make ur code based on modern ultra fast nasa 999999999$ cpus tho

[ancient jackal]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#setPlayerListName(java.lang.String)

[grim ice]

yeah use setplayerlistname

[patent horizon]

Note that this name will not be displayed in game, only in chat and places defined by plugins.

[wet breach]

you probably could make that bottom if, and else statement of the top

[ancient jackal]

I sent two

[grim ice]

3*

[simple anvil]

so

if (!(sender instanceof Player)){
            sender.sendMessage("Only players can use this command");
            return true;
        }else 
(command.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("ci")){
            SelectionScreen gui = new SelectionScreen();
            p.openInventory(gui.getInventory());
            p.sendMessage(ChatColor.AQUA + "please make a selection");
        }

like this?

[grim ice]

tbf im happy i can be in coding servers, since without them my ego would skyrocket

since in my country i'm basically a genius

having a source to lower ur ego is pretty useful

being in a country that isnt 3rd world and is outside of africa is way more useful tho

oops this should be in general

[simple anvil]

if (command.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("ci")){
            SelectionScreen gui = new SelectionScreen();
            p.openInventory(gui.getInventory());
            p.sendMessage(ChatColor.AQUA + "please make a selection");
        }

        return true;
    }

why do i need to do getcommand.get name?
wont the main class do that?

[quaint mantle]

String pString = "players." + p.getUniqueId().toString();
            FileConfiguration conf = EmeraldsPlugin.data.getConfig();
            if(!conf.contains(pString)){
                conf.set(pString + ".balance", 0);
                EmeraldsPlugin.data.saveConfig();
            }

            int bal = conf.getInt(pString + ".balance");
            p.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "Your Balance: " + ChatColor.RESET + ChatColor.GREEN + bal + " Coins");

Why when I run my command, it just says /balance and nothing else?

Is my code here wrong?

[quaint mantle]

its a nice function dont even

[grim ice]

java isnt a scripting langauge lol

[quaint mantle]

well not a function

[quaint mantle]

forgor

[grim ice]

yeah static is rly cool but ur abusing it

thats not how to use it

[quaint mantle]

in this script i havent used static lol

*in this code

DAMN

no statics are used

[ancient jackal]

script

[quaint mantle]

dont abuse it

[grim ice]

FileConfiguration conf = EmeraldsPlugin.data.getConfig();

[quaint mantle]

but anyways, is something wrong?

[quaint mantle]

so?

[grim ice]

EmeraldsPlugin

.data

that is static

[quaint mantle]

public static UserData data;

only this

[grim ice]

ok

[quaint mantle]

is ur emerald plugin ur main

[quaint mantle]

yep

[grim ice]

then learn spigot

okay then ill just use static

fine private static\

[sterile token]

I find the cause it was because i was using"mongodb://", instead of "mongo+srv://"

[grim ice]

u should learn java btw

jk no one will learn java if they were told to

[sterile token]

I get tired of told him that

[grim ice]

not even u learnt java when they told u to tho so ig

[quaint mantle]

i legit watched tutorials yesterday

on java

[grim ice]

(i assumed)

[grim ice]

not enough

more

[quaint mantle]

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The embedded resource 'data.yml' cannot be found in plugins/EmeraldsPlugin-1.0.0.jar

found the error

[sterile token]

Its literally said the error

Please learn java

Its really annoying to be all time asking and asking

[quaint mantle]

i had to scroll thru console

[sterile token]

If you atleast know java you wont be asking for that type of error

[quaint mantle]

what did I generate the file incorrectly?
this.configFile = new File(this.plugin.getDataFolder(), "data.yml");

[sterile token]

That literally say what happening

[quaint mantle]

You got data.yml in resource folder /generated right?

[quaint mantle]

it for some reason didnt generate no

maybe im missing smth

[torn badge]

PlayerBucketEmptyEvent

[lost matrix]

Because its not placing a Block. This can be detected with other events.

Well then update to a supported version

[wet breach]

you need to call the create file method

all you are doing with that is creating a new File() object

not necessarily creating the file itself

[torn badge]

It should though

[tacit drift]

PlayerInteractEvent

[lost matrix]

Search in old forum posts. You might find something. But 1.8 is an ancient version and support
was dropped years ago. Just update. Only a minority still plays that version anyways.

[torn badge]

https://hugo4715.github.io/SpigotJavadoc/index.html?org/bukkit/event/player/PlayerBucketEvent.html

[river oracle]

Ahhh there are always people who just need to support 1.8 if the server supports the old combat I don't mind. And it's not like the old combat is objectively better anyways ahaha

[torn badge]

Yeah I was pretty sure about that

[patent horizon]

So I'm using luckperms as my permissions plugin, and I want to check that a player isn't assigned to any group. When looking at the luckperms developer api, it looks like they just use the player.hasPermission("group.<group>") to find someone's group. how can i do the opposite, and see if a player isn't in any group?

[sullen marlin]

there would be an API to get a list of groups

then just call .isEmpty

[patent horizon]

.isEmpty for what?

[lost matrix]

the list of groups lol

[sullen marlin]

User user = luckPerms.getUserManager().loadUser(who);

Collection<Group> inheritedGroups = user.getInheritedGroups(user.getQueryOptions()).isEmpty()

or something

idkj Im just copy pasting the wiki

https://luckperms.net/wiki/Developer-API-Usage#finding-a-players-group

[patent horizon]

oh

thought u meant get all the groups in the server

[rotund pond]

Hello !
I have a little question java side:
The methiod Bukkit#getOnlinePlayers return a "Collection<? extends Player>"

How can a class (?) extends Player even tho Player is an interface, and not an object ?
To me, it should be "Collection<? implements Player>" but it's not x)

[sullen marlin]

I dont think implements is a java keyword in that context

extends means the same thing

[lost matrix]

^

[sullen marlin]

as for why the API returns that its because stupid

just treat it as Player

[rotund pond]

Well xD

Okay ty

[lost matrix]

I literally went through a library today and found this gem:

[sullen marlin]

love it

[grim ice]

Lol

[frosty minnow]

moss is dead, can somebody please help me figure out gradle? i just need to know how to import local dependency

[sullen marlin]

wtf is moss

do I even want to know

[torn badge]

RIP Moss, he was a good one

[frosty minnow]

official support discord for a lot of plugins lol including essx and grifprevention

[sullen marlin]

https://tenor.com/view/it-crowd-maurice-moss-richard-ayoade-smoking-angry-gif-24959555

[frosty minnow]

essx switched to fudging gradle and now i can't build it

and i really need to because i run a custom one

[fossil lily]

Where would I put this?

[young knoll]

Why is moss dead

[frosty minnow]

no devs in their support channel

[lost matrix]

[sullen marlin]

what issue with gradle are you having specifically

[quiet ice]

Probably just another person that declares a channel dead after 10 seconds of being there

[grim ice]

In Java Naming Conventions

[sullen marlin]

is mavenLocal() a repo

[young knoll]

🙃

[grim ice]

Ur class name lol

[sullen marlin]

if so should just be able to add it like a maven depend/

[frosty minnow]

several at this point, but the one i haven't figured out yet is how to import a local dependency, eg. a local .jar file

[sullen marlin]

otherwise idk, gradle sucks

[frosty minnow]

thank you i'm glad somebody of your stature agrees

[quiet ice]

that is actually easy

[sullen marlin]

like a maven system depend?

[young knoll]

Conclure comin in hot

[ivory sleet]

In principle that method there means
that a Collection<CraftPlayer> or any other class/type that extends Player can be used when returning a collection instance in the method.

[frosty minnow]

in maven sure, gradle idk... pls tell me how

[quiet ice]

compileOnly files("dep.jar")

[dire salmon]

md_5 is online

Pog

[frosty minnow]

do i stick that in dependencies section?

[quiet ice]

in maven it is very hard to do it correctly

[quiet ice]

yep

If not impossible actually

[frosty minnow]

nope:

Build file 'C:\Users\Leo\Desktop\Plugin Edits\3. Currents Edited\Essentials-2.x\build.gradle' line: 17

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred evaluating root project 'EssentialsXParent'.
> Could not find method compileOnly() for arguments [file collection] on object of type org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.dsl.dependencies.DefaultDependencyHandler.```

[quiet ice]

Which is why I always use gradle if I have to depend on local jars

[grim ice]

Chat goin hot

[quiet ice]

groovy or kotlin?

Nvm, it's groovy

[frosty minnow]

it's essentialsx project clones from github, afaik just java

[rotund pond]

Yeah, I understand that
But my question was about the "extends" because a class cannot extends an interface, it implements an interface

[lost matrix]

maven install:file 😄

[quiet ice]

that complicates it by a bit for the average developer

[young knoll]

No the gradle file

[grim ice]

An interface can

[quiet ice]

Then show me your dependency block

[young knoll]

Is it .gradle.kts or just .gradle

[quiet ice]

it's build.gradle

[frosty minnow]

    compileOnly files('./PlayerTracking.jar')
}```

[grim ice]

And you can pass in an implementation of that interface

[quiet ice]

Oh I think I have heard about this issue

[grim ice]

Anyways there is no ? implements so we usin ? extends

[young knoll]

That’s the groovy version

[quiet ice]

I know

please wait a while I need to find how to do it correctly again

[frosty minnow]

please tell me there's a way to import a jar file

[quiet ice]

there is

And make sure that this file actually exists

[frosty minnow]

it does, it's in the same folder as build.gradle, same folder i'm running the gradle command from

god damn it essentialsx

[lean gull]

so i managed to make my custom config file with a tutorial, and now i have another question: how can i use this custom config file for my "bot"? i wanna make it so i can just input an input and an output + custom expressions, for example:

input: [can you say] "%message%" [for] %player%
output: send message %message% for %player%

[quiet ice]

even the case is correct and everything?

[ivory sleet]

repositories {
  flatDir {
    dir '.'
  }
}

dependencies {
  compileOnly name: 'File.jar'
}```

This is the way I used to do it (groovy dsl)

[frosty minnow]

i copypasted the file name since i was paranoid

[frosty minnow]

aye lemme try this syntax

[quiet ice]

What happens if you remove the ./?

[torn badge]

Try implementation instead of compileOnly

[quiet ice]

I know that this works as I used it in one of my projects: https://github.com/Starloader-project/Starloader-API/blob/master/build.gradle#L37

[ivory sleet]

no dont

[frosty minnow]

now it changed to this error instead:

A problem occurred evaluating root project 'EssentialsXParent'.
> Build was configured to prefer settings repositories over project repositories but repository 'flatDir' was added by build file 'build.gradle'```

[quiet ice]

isn't implementation removed?

[ivory sleet]

implementation assumes runtime classpath dependence

[quiet ice]

Show us your entire build.gradle

[ivory sleet]

which is probably not what you want

[frosty minnow]

    id("essentials.parent-build-logic")
}

group = "net.essentialsx"
version = "2.19.4-SNAPSHOT"

project.ext {
    GIT_COMMIT = !indraGit.isPresent() ? "unknown" : indraGit.commit().abbreviate(7).name()
    GIT_DEPTH = GitUtil.commitsSinceLastTag(project)
    GIT_BRANCH = GitUtil.headBranchName(project)

    FULL_VERSION = "${version}".replace("-SNAPSHOT", "-dev+${GIT_DEPTH}-${GIT_COMMIT}")
}

repositories {
  flatDir {
    dir '.'
  }
}

dependencies {
  compileOnly name: 'PlayerTracking.jar'
}```

[quiet ice]

what is the settings.gradle file?

[ivory sleet]

wait how is the project setup?

you might wanna add the repo and dep to your subprojects rather

[frosty minnow]

essentialsx source from github, i only modified a couple .java files and build.gradle

[simple anvil]

how come?

[ivory sleet]

can you link?

[frosty minnow]

it's just a jar file, there's no project for it except for eclipse project file

[quiet ice]

oh

That gradle file isn't meant to be used I think

[frosty minnow]

https://github.com/EssentialsX/Essentials

[quiet ice]

Yeah

[ivory sleet]

this is unorthodox

[quiet ice]

You need to edit this file: https://github.com/EssentialsX/Essentials/blob/2.x/Essentials/build.gradle

[ivory sleet]

both groovy and kotlin dsl

[frosty minnow]

😶 🔫

[frosty minnow]

AH let's try this one

[quiet ice]

It is basically the root maven pom

In maven speak

It however depends on what you are actually trying to do

[frosty minnow]

that's where i had it in the maven version of this lol the root one

[ivory sleet]

yeah adding the flatfile jar to the subproject is much more reasonable

[young knoll]

Wouldn’t want to exclude

[frosty minnow]

A problem occurred evaluating project ':EssentialsX'.
> Build was configured to prefer settings repositories over project repositories but repository 'flatDir' was added by build file 'Essentials\build.gradle'```

what the hell

[quiet ice]

Use my approach

[frosty minnow]

for fuck's sake is there something like a gradle2maven converter somewhere

[quiet ice]

For conclure's approach you'd need to edit https://github.com/EssentialsX/Essentials/blob/2.x/settings.gradle.kts

Partially that is

[ivory sleet]

^

[frosty minnow]

i did, i added the dependency and the flatdir to Essentials/build.gradle

[ivory sleet]

yeah

[frosty minnow]

wait what do i put in the blob

[ivory sleet]

flatDir {
dir(".")
}

(settings.gradle.kts)

[lean gull]

anyone?

[frosty minnow]

there's not even a blob folder there

[quiet ice]

Just add the compileOnly files("file.jar") in Essentials/build.gradle

without anything else

That should work

[patent horizon]

    public void updatePlayerTablist(Player player) {
        UUID uuid = player.getUniqueId();
        PlayerData data = Main.getPlayerControl().getInstance(uuid);
        User user = Main.luckPerms.getPlayerAdapter(Player.class).getUser(player);
        String name = !user.getInheritedGroups(user.getQueryOptions()).isEmpty() ? utility.f("&f" + player.getName()) : utility.f("&7" + player.getName());
        String prefix = Main.luckPerms.getUserManager().getUser(uuid).getCachedData().getMetaData().getPrefix();
        String guild = !data.guild.equals("") ? utility.f("&8[&7" + data.guild + "&8]") : utility.f("&7");
        String bounty = data.bounty != 0 ? utility.f("&6&l$" + data.bounty) : utility.f("&7");
        player.setPlayerListName(prefix + name + " " + guild + " " + bounty);
    }```

[frosty minnow]

that file doesnt exist; there's no such thing as a blob folder or file in this file structure

[lean gull]

you can't have components in tab, also ew plexpvp

[patent horizon]

youch

[simple anvil]

how do i respond to a command in the console?

[young dome]

Can we detect if an inventory is not a default inventory in spigot ? (so an inventory created on the client side with packets or else)

[quiet ice]

that is because the blob folder does not exist

[patent horizon]

how do i color stuff in tab then

[simple anvil]

§

[frosty minnow]

so how do i edit a file in it?

[quiet ice]

just do my compileOnly files("file.jar") approach

Or edit the root settings.gradle.kts

[lean gull]

try ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes

[frosty minnow]

A problem occurred evaluating root project 'EssentialsXParent'.
> Could not find method compileOnly() for arguments [{name=PlayerTracking.jar}] on object of type org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.dsl.dependencies.DefaultDependencyHandler.```

[patent horizon]

thats what im doing

utility.f() is a shortened function for it

[lean gull]

honestly ask someone else idk crap about java

also, ew, plexpvp :)

[patent horizon]

k then

[quiet ice]

is that in the dependencies block?

[lean gull]

how do this - someone help pls

[ivory sleet]

Acc might be
compileOnly name: "File"

Without .jar

[frosty minnow]

ok i still had the flat thing on it lol, i removed it and it seemed to make some progress, but it failed again with this:

[ivory sleet]

Remove .jar

[quiet ice]

It'S with the jar: https://github.com/Starloader-project/Starloader-API/blob/master/build.gradle#L37

[simple anvil]

how to i respond to the console?

[frosty minnow]

and yes it's in dependencies block

[quiet ice]

try ../PlayerTracking.jar

[frosty minnow]

not even full fucking path works

what the fuck

why can't it find it

it's literally right there

[quiet ice]

Windows moment

[ivory sleet]

But like where is the jar located?

Root dir?

[frosty minnow]

yes

[frosty minnow]

gahh why can't i post images

god damn it

[lean gull]

are you using the chat component api

[vocal cloud]

Gotta verify

[frosty minnow]

PLEASE DONT GO ANYWHERE GUYS i have to upload this to imgur real quick

please stay

[ivory sleet]

Lol

[quiet ice]

at that point you can use adventure

[patent horizon]

no

[ivory sleet]

I and geol will be here, like I also wanna know how to do this and why it doesn’t work lol

[lean gull]

"clickEvent=null"

[frosty minnow]

https://i.imgur.com/s5itECR.png

that folder

[quiet ice]

It is probably EssX own build logic that interferres here

[frosty minnow]

grrrrrrrrr

[quiet ice]

You could edit https://github.com/EssentialsX/Essentials/blob/2.x/build-logic/src/main/kotlin/essentials.base-conventions.gradle.kts I guess, but that is kotlin gradle

[frosty minnow]

this is what i hate about both maven and gradle they're both too fucking complicated

[ivory sleet]

flatDir{
dir(rootProject.dir)
}
perhaps?

[frosty minnow]

ughhh where? the root one or essentials?

[ivory sleet]

Yes

settings

[quiet ice]

the repository would need to be declared in the settings.gradle.kts file

around line 3

[frosty minnow]

this good?

        maven("https://hub.spigotmc.org/nexus/content/groups/public/")

[quiet ice]

However it is likely that it uses different syntax

[ivory sleet]

Yes

[ivory sleet]

.

[frosty minnow]

i haven't wanted to shoot myself in the head this much in a long time... this wasn't supposed to take all fucking saturday

[frosty minnow]

ahh, let's try this

[quiet ice]

to be honest the guys over at EssX are using a very enterprise-y structure

[young dome]

You need repository

[quiet ice]

It always takes a while to figure out what to do with these projects

[trail pilot]

how i can make max homes?

[frosty minnow]

they can get off their damn high horse then it's a minecraft plugin

[fossil lily]

Oh

I see

[quaint mantle]

Hi everyone, I've got a question for yall.

So I've been trying to make custom islands that have their own world, but I ran into the issue of not enough memory.
My question now is, is there a way to limit as to how many chunks a world has/can load just like what hypixel does, and with limiting the world data size.
I searched the whole #WorldCreator but nothing that can help me there.

If anyone is able to help me, that'd be great.

[frosty minnow]

Settings file 'C:\Users\Leo\Desktop\Plugin Edits\3. Currents Edited\Essentials-2.x\settings.gradle.kts' line: 25

[ivory sleet]

dirs(rootProject.dir) maybe

[frosty minnow]

same error

[prime reef]

so how exactly does creating an NPC work? in other words an entity that looks like a player but isn't

[ivory sleet]

Ah it’s such a mess, ain’t even home kinda potato

maybe you can toFile() it

Or sth x)

[frosty minnow]

toFile() it?

[prime reef]

trying to search for any information just keeps pulling up Citizens lmao

[prime reef]

method

should return a java File

[quiet ice]

nah

[frosty minnow]

that's cuz that's the easiest way lol citizens+sentinels

[prime reef]

citizens is bloated garbage

[frosty minnow]

ok but where do i stick it

[prime reef]

that's the problem

[quiet ice]

We are talking about how to do something in kotlin gradle

[prime reef]

ah nvm

I don't know shit about Kotlin, my bad

gradle I can use but kotlin...

[frosty minnow]

neither do i... maven used xml which is like older than my grandma

everyone knows fucking xml

[prime reef]

xml is nice because it's a very clear cut format

and can be used for anything

[quiet ice]

The alternative is that you manually upload it to mavenLocal and use that

[prime reef]

gradle decided it was going to make its own fucking syntax

[frosty minnow]

you can take 2 days at a high school html web design class and already understand god damn xml

[quiet ice]

you'd need to declare mavenLocal manually however

[prime reef]

XML's not even a real standard

it's just

[quiet ice]

but it should just be a mavenLocal()

[prime reef]

"Put this shit in brackets"

[frosty minnow]

where do i stick this?

[quiet ice]

XML is pretty standardised afaik

[prime reef]

you can parse any old angle bracket markup language with an XML parser because that's the point of xml

eXtensible Markup Language

i like it though

[frosty minnow]

it doesn't even need an official standard; it's literally just html tags without the rest of html

[prime reef]

^

[quiet ice]

first you gotta upload your file to maven local. But then you can add it to the settings.gradle.kts file like the other repo we tried to declare earlier

[young dome]

up

[prime reef]

I was gonna say "oh you just mvn install" but

gradle just

[frosty minnow]

oh my god what?

ok how do i do that?

i do have maven installed

[prime reef]

inventory owner?

[quiet ice]

okay, copy upload was the wrong word

[prime reef]

not sure what you're trying to accomplish

[trail pilot]

anyideas?

[quiet ice]

@lost matrix So how do we install a file again?

[prime reef]

usually it helps to describe what you're trying to do in a general sense rather than asking about a very specific thing

and I say this because more often than not, I'll see a question in here that has me kind of confused because there's no reason for the person asking to be doing what they're trying to do

[frosty minnow]

@quiet ice thanks for your help but i'm gonna move on to updating the next plugin now, hopefully it won't be such a fucking nightmare

i can live with old essentials

[prime reef]

mind if I ask what you're doing? out of curiosity

[frosty minnow]

i run a custom build of essentialsx... it just has a few lines of code in the function that handles the /sethome command

i knew how to edit the code back when they used maven

but now i'm just shit outta luck

[quiet ice]

If it is simple work you might also be able to use Recaf ... that should certainly work just could be gruesome if you are no familiar with it

[frosty minnow]

i mean if it's a gradle plugin then i can only build it with gradle... i've tried making an intellij project from scratch with the .jar files (it took fucking hours to import everything into the correct folder structure) but that just didn't work

[quiet ice]

Plus you'd need to reapply the step over and over again every time you want to update EssX as there is not patch format for java bytecode

[frosty minnow]

.java* files

i meant

[quiet ice]

Recaf is a dedicated bytecode editing IDE

[frosty minnow]

i mean...

[quiet ice]

Yes, overkill

[ivory sleet]

I am almost home, so can test it soon otherwise in case you still haven’t fiddled it out

[frosty minnow]

oh thank the good lord jesus christ thank you

[young dome]

No, it's not really that, I want to know how spigot handles inventories that are not listed in spigot (the GUIs added with the client)

[quiet ice]

Also if it is really simple work you might just be able to use reflection or method handles and this stuff

Would save you from depending on an external jar directly

[frosty minnow]

i don't know any of that... i'm only a basic java dev

[trail pilot]

.

[frosty minnow]

i don't even use maven/gradle for my plugins, just intellij and file folders

[frosty minnow]

how would i do this?

[prime reef]

ping me if you need help with this

because like

that's the thing i'm good at

lmao

[prime reef]

ah, alright. i'm actually not sure how that one works tbh

i've never dug too deep into packets/etc. as far as Spigot is concerned

you may be interested in ProtocolLib though, that's one of the few times I'd firmly recommend using a library

[quiet ice]

it depends on what you want to do. For example calling a static method is:

try {
   Method method = MyClass.class.getMethod("name", Parameter1Class.class, Parameter2Class.class);
   method.invoke(null, parameter1, parameter2);
} catch (Throwable t) {

}

[fossil lily]

Adding the repository didnt work :(

[quiet ice]

?paste I guess you could paste the entire pom.xml

[undone axle]

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

[fossil lily]

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

[quiet ice]

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.mongodb/mongodb-driver-sync/4.5.0 it's on maven central anyways so that is strange...

[fossil lily]

hm

Oh

[quiet ice]

also the repository you added is superflous

[fossil lily]

After reloading it worked

[quiet ice]

Java IDE moment

[fossil lily]

Thanks

[vestal barn]

i have a map in a config file but it is just empty when i try to get anything from it
code
config.getMapList("classEmojis")
config

classEmojis:
  warriorEmoji: ⚔️
  archerEmoji: 🏹
  tankEmoji: 🛡️️
  wizardEmoji: 🪄

[quiet ice]

Wouldn't it be getMap?

[young dome]

Thanks, but that's not the problem, I already have my own packet system though, you can't quite tell where a packet is coming from as far as I understand unless you have other ideas?

[vestal barn]

there isnt a get map

[quiet ice]

getMapList would be a list of maps, but this is a map

?jd-s I do not believe that

[undone axle]

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

[vestal barn]

Cannot resolve method 'getMap' in 'FileConfiguration'

[quiet ice]

actually yes, you are right

You can still get the keys via .getKeys however

Actually, no. There is https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/configuration/MemorySection.html#getValues(boolean)

it is named strangely, but it should be what you are searching for

[ivory sleet]

@frosty minnow okay Im cloning now

lol

[frosty minnow]

aye thanks lol

lemme get u the changed files

[frosty minnow]

Settings.java: https://pastebin.com/PBgXRub3
Essentials.java: https://pastebin.com/yyNbzETT
(both in .\Essentials\src\main\java\com\earth2me\essentials)

no other file is changed

btw there's a chance for syntax errors since i just copypasted code from an older version of the same files, but i can deal with that after i get it to at least see the dependency

[prime reef]

man i'm so glad i don't use spigot's configuration api anymore

and shit like this is why

or part of it, anyway

the other part being how verbose config reads are

[quiet ice]

spigots config API is at least miles better than snakeyaml

[prime reef]

that's true, but it's still kinda shit compared to jackson

snakeyaml is basically a fossil at this point

the one thing i do like about spigot's config api is that it's really damn easy to use

and pathing through a config file is simple

[quiet ice]

I prefer org.json:json but noone is going to use a json-based config so I do not use it in minecraft space

[prime reef]

i just wrote a library that reads yml/xml/json into a format-neutral config tree

[chrome beacon]

Night config is nice, been using it with Forge

[prime reef]

made my life 10x easier

[frosty minnow]

🤞 🤞 🤞 on conclure figuring it out

[prime reef]

combines the ease of spigot config with the not having to hardcode aspect of jackson

[quiet ice]

I've used sponge's configurate once, it is kinda nice though complicated to get started

[frosty minnow]

@ivory sleet by the way you're gonna have to run gradle like this: gradle build -x checkStyleMain

for some reason they think it's okay to treat styling choices as syntax errors without that option

[ivory sleet]

oo

[frosty minnow]

like spaces vs. tabs what the actual fudge

[quiet ice]

as I said, enterprise development

Mixing spaces with tabs may lead to issues

[frosty minnow]

certainly not in java

i should be able to fit an entire method in 1 line with no spacing at all if i wanted to lol and still can idk why it tries to styleblock me by default though that's just flat out rude

[quiet ice]

Certainly yes. Readability concerns are worth noting

[young dome]

up

[quiet ice]

And it should be noted that not all IDE installs are going to show 1 tab as 4 spaces for example. Some may opt in for 1 tab = 2 spaces and the extra exotic variant is 1 tab = 3 spaces. Some are like 2020 me and have it set at 1 tab = 16 spaces so they will instantly notice when there is a rouge tab.

[prime reef]

16 spaces
i felt pain

I use 4 in intelliJ and 2 in VS for C++

[quiet ice]

Nowadays I just have the "show whitespace characters" option on however

[prime reef]

not sure why

[wet breach]

fortunately decent IDE's lets you configure how many spaces for a tab lol. Also you forgot also the other exotic variant and that is 5

[quiet ice]

There are too many variants to count with people being able to set them as they please

[wet breach]

I have my IDE set to convert tabs to spaces, and just like you have it show whitespace characters on all the time

its more handy when I work on some other project as opposed to my own projects for the white spacing characters

However though there is no standard for how many spaces for a tab

and this has to do with history and mechanical type writers where a tab was just a physical stop for the carriage return

[quiet ice]

I mean that is kinda what makes tab so great

[lost matrix]

mvn install:install-file -Dfile=<path-to-file> -DgroupId=<group-id> -DartifactId=<artifact-id> -Dversion=<version> -Dpackaging=<packaging>

[frosty minnow]

@ivory sleet any luck at all?

🙏 thank you lord, the other plugin i wanted to update is still on maven

thank you thank you thank you thank you

[quiet ice]

thanks

[ivory sleet]

okay

[quiet ice]

I wish you can pin messages for later.
Oh well

[ivory sleet]

@frosty minnow

flatDir {
dirs(rootProject.projectDir)
}

that

[frosty minnow]

😱 you found it

[ivory sleet]

and then the compileOnly name: 'JarFileWithoutDotJar'

ye

lol

[frosty minnow]

let's try

[frosty minnow]

this in build.gradle or the .kts file?

[quaint mantle]

new File("src/main/resources/data.yml");

Any reason why it isnt able to make the file VIA a plugin?

[quiet ice]

...

What exactly are you trying to do?

[ivory sleet]

settings

[quiet ice]

It is likely that you are trying to do new File(getDataFolder(), "data.yml") - in that case, use that instead

[quaint mantle]

Yes, but when I do that, it doesnt work either

[west oxide]

hey everyone

[quaint mantle]

So I was hoping a direct path would help

[quiet ice]

Or if you are trying to use getResource("data.yml") use that instead

[west oxide]

can someone tell me how to import this ?
import com.mojang.authlib.GameProfile;

[ivory sleet]

looks like its imported already

[quaint mantle]

I am using that in this yea

But, im trying to create the resouce first

[quiet ice]

Alternatively, saveResource

[west oxide]

what

when i do that

it shows error

[quiet ice]

Do you want to create an empty file in the plugin's directory or what?

[frosty minnow]

ok i think i did it right, now i'm getting more code-oriented messages... it's looking like it finally detected the jar but i'm not 100% sure yet

[quaint mantle]

Basically, im trying to make a balance system, where players can have a balance in my server

String pString = "players." + p.getUniqueId().toString();
            FileConfiguration conf = EmeraldsPlugin.data.getConfig();
            if(!conf.contains(pString)){
                conf.set(pString + ".balance", 0);
                EmeraldsPlugin.data.saveConfig();
            }

            int bal = conf.getInt(pString + ".balance");
            p.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "Your Balance: " + ChatColor.RESET + ChatColor.GREEN + bal + " Coins");

Part of my balance command

public static UserData data;
data = new UserData(this);

[quiet ice]

ah then you only need an empty file

[frosty minnow]

ahh yes lol they seem to have restructured their class... guess i'll have to do some coding after all

thank you @ivory sleet

[quaint mantle]

So.. should I just make a blank resource file?

Named "data.yml"

[quiet ice]

File f = new File(getDataFolder(), "data.yml");
f.getParentFile().mkdirs();
f.createNewFile();

something like this

[west oxide]

nvm i found how to fix (need to use the server jar as dependency aswell)

[quiet ice]

no

[quaint mantle]

alr also I see ur code

lettme try it rq

[frosty minnow]

@ivory sleet wait never mind it's still not working... actually i removed all of my changes and it still won't build

[ivory sleet]

what does it say

[frosty minnow]

nevermind... i just ran it a second time on a cleared screen and it built fine

now let's try with my edits

ahh ok yes lol it's just my code that's wrong @ivory sleet

[ivory sleet]

nice

[frosty minnow]

yes lol very 😄 thanks

[quaint mantle]

@quiet ice tysm

it works now

[steel reef]

how do i craft hearts????

[marble rivet]

how do i summon a horizontal firework that crossbows shoot?

[gaunt moss]

Hi, I have a problem. I use the variable ${project.name} in the plugin.yml but there is an error Schema validation: String violates the pattern: '^[A-Za-z0-9_\.-]+$

[wet breach]

there is still people that don't know how to craft hearts?

@tender shard

[quaint mantle]

Is creating a players data when joining for the first time efficient?

public void PlayerJoined(PlayerJoinEvent event){
        Player p = event.getPlayer();
        String pString = "players." + p.getUniqueId().toString();
        FileConfiguration conf = EmeraldsPlugin.data.getConfig();

        if(!conf.contains(pString))
            EmeraldsPlugin.data.createUserData(p);
    }

Like so

[worldly ingot]

I don't see why not. Pretty common to do that. If you're loading data from file or something though, be sure to do it asynchronously

[arctic moth]

https://paste.md-5.net/zaxatomile.cs what just happened

[worldly ingot]

Not sure. You're on Purpur, a very far derivative of Spigot

Doing some weird fuckery in the damage event handling. I would forward that error to them instead

Preferably on their JIRA/GitHub issues/however they track bugs

[ancient plank]

[worldly ingot]

lmao that's great

I've not seen that one before

[frosty minnow]

@ivory sleet @quiet ice @prime reef i have successfully built my essentials jar 🥳 if it weren't for you guys i'd still be in anxiety hell right now so thank you all very very much ❤️

[ancient plank]

I made it like a couple months ago

[quaint mantle]

Is there a way to copy a world with all the exact blocks that it contains?

[gaunt moss]

Help please

[brave sparrow]

It violates the pattern, you can’t use {}

[gaunt moss]

How do I retrieve the variable then?

[brave sparrow]

project.name ?

[gaunt moss]

Yep

[brave sparrow]

You just can’t use {}

So use project.name instead of {project.name}

[eternal oxide]

you have to set <filtering>true</filtering> in the build section of your pom so those entries get replaced with their real values before they are put in the jar

[brave sparrow]

Aha that’s a spigot error, gotcha

Thought they were getting a maven error

[waxen plinth]

You can just literally copy the world folder

[brave sparrow]

^

Gonna be the fastest way to do it

[quaint mantle]

String value = item.getItemMeta().getPersistentDataContainer().get(new NamespacedKey(EmeraldsPlugin.jp, "coin"), PersistentDataType.STRING);

                if(value == "iron"){
                    FileConfiguration conf = EmeraldsPlugin.data.getConfig();
                    String pString = "players." + p.getUniqueId().toString();
                    conf.set(pString + ".balance", conf.getInt(pString + ".balance") + 1);
                    EmeraldsPlugin.data.saveConfig();
                    PluginFuncs.consumeItem(p, 1, item);
                    p.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "Added 1 coin to your balance.");
                }|

My code litterally crashed my server

Any idea why?

[brave sparrow]

First of all

You don’t compare strings with ==

[quaint mantle]

forgot .equals

[earnest forum]

.equals

or equalsignorecase

[quaint mantle]

any other reasons why it may crash?

[night torrent]

can the artifactID have capitals?

[eternal oxide]

it should not

[brave sparrow]

What does the crash log say

[night torrent]

thanks

[quaint mantle]

I think this is the log?

[brave sparrow]

I’m on mobile on an airplane

Use ?paste

[quaint mantle]

?paste

[brave sparrow]

Lol

[undone axle]

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

[quaint mantle]

@brave sparrow https://paste.md-5.net/ewimecibez.apache

[fossil lily]

How would I change this so that instead of a string I had an integer?

[brave sparrow]

What is properties

[tall dragon]

show properties class

[quaint mantle]

Maybe the error was caused by different means.

[fossil lily]

I dont have a property class

[brave sparrow]

Can you look at the mappings and tell me what ItemStack#N is

I only have the official Mojang repo on my phone

[lost matrix]

Its probably java.util.Properties. Which is basically just a HashTable<Object, Object>.
The question is: why

[quaint mantle]

Items ironCoin = Items.newItem("ironCoin", null);

        ItemStack itemD = new ItemStack(Material.IRON_NUGGET, 1);
        ItemMeta metaD = itemD.getItemMeta();
        metaD.setDisplayName(ChatColor.GRAY + "Iron Coin");
        NamespacedKey keyD = new NamespacedKey(EmeraldsPlugin.jp,"coin");
        metaD.getPersistentDataContainer().set(keyD, PersistentDataType.STRING, "iron");
        ArrayList<String> loreD = new ArrayList<>();
        loreD.add(ChatColor.GOLD + "An iron coin. Right click to gain 1 coin.");
        metaD.setLore(loreD);
        itemD.setItemMeta(metaD);
        ShapedRecipe recipeD = new ShapedRecipe(NamespacedKey.minecraft("ironcoin"), itemD);
        recipeD.shape(" I ","IBI"," I ");
        recipeD.setIngredient('I',Material.IRON_INGOT);
        recipeD.setIngredient('B',Material.IRON_BLOCK);

        ironCoin.setItem(itemD);
        ironCoin.setRecipe(recipeD);

Here is the item in question

[brave sparrow]

I don’t want your code

I want net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack

That’s the method where the server crashes

I need to know what N is

[quaint mantle]

ItemStack item = event.getItem();

[tall dragon]

yep, i caught on :D

[quaint mantle]

Here possibly?

[wet breach]

they are most likely removing an item incorrectly somewhere

[lost matrix]

Why did you decide to use the Properties class instead of just using spigots FileConfiguration?

[quaint mantle]

Thats the only ItemStack#N I can see

[brave sparrow]

I need you to look at the Mojang mappings

And tell me what the obfuscated method N is

[wet breach]

are you removing an item in an event? going to guess you are doing so in the interact event

[brave sparrow]

For net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack

Yep

[quaint mantle]

Cant find method N

[lost matrix]

In some cases you should do it one tick later. Really depends on the context.

[quaint mantle]

anywhere

[wet breach]

let me guess you are reducing the number in the itemstack?

[quaint mantle]

Yep

[brave sparrow]

You need to get the mapping file from the minecraft launcher

[quaint mantle]

public static void consumeItem(Player player, int count, ItemStack item) {
        Map<Integer, ? extends ItemStack> ammo = player.getInventory().all(item);

        int found = 0;
        for (ItemStack stack : ammo.values())
            found += stack.getAmount();
        if (count > found)
            return;

        for (Integer index : ammo.keySet()) {
            ItemStack stack = ammo.get(index);

            int removed = Math.min(count, stack.getAmount());
            count -= removed;

            if (stack.getAmount() == removed)
                player.getInventory().setItem(index, null);
            else
                stack.setAmount(stack.getAmount() - removed);

            if (count <= 0)
                break;
        }

        player.updateInventory();
    }

[wet breach]

you need to check if the itemstack only has 1 item, if they do, you need to set the item to air

instead of reducing it to 0

[quaint mantle]

May I ask why

[lost matrix]

Uhm... there is a method for this in spigot...

[quaint mantle]

why would that crash a server lol

[quaint mantle]

?

Whats the method

[lost matrix]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/Inventory.html#removeItem(org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack...)

[wet breach]

setting it to 0 is the same as setting it to null. This doesn't work because itemstacks are asserted to not be null

hence the assert error being TRAP

now everyone else learned what it means for assert to be TRAP 🙂

[lost matrix]

Example:

    /**
     * Removes 10 apples and returns an int that defines how
     * many apples couldnt be removed.
     */
    public int removeTenApples(Player player) {
        return player.getInventory().removeItem(new ItemStack(Material.APPLE, 10)).size();
    }

[quaint mantle]

I haven't found anything about it, can't find anything on google.

Would you mind helping me with that ?

[vocal cloud]

Copy pasting a folder?

[lost matrix]

Just google: java copy Folder

[quaint mantle]

Correct.

[brave sparrow]

@wet breach I need to satisfy my curiosity now, would you be a doll and tell me what the actual name for the obfuscated method net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack#N is

I can’t find a mapping on my phone

[lost matrix]

"would you be a doll"
I cant imagine that this is an actual saying...

[brave sparrow]

It is

[wet breach]

it is, just an old one

Its more common to hear in southern states

[lost matrix]

I believe i spider

[brave sparrow]

Wot

[vocal cloud]

Would you be a dear is usually what you hear

[brave sparrow]

Same general idea

[wet breach]

I don't have the obfuscated code at the moment, but if I had to guess it refers to the material?

[lost matrix]

This is more familiar

[hexed hatch]

I hear it all the time in the hickier parts of North Carolina

[quaint mantle]

@brave sparrow #N is an iron nugger

nugget

im p sure

[brave sparrow]

Darn, I can’t find a mapping on mobile

[brave sparrow]

No lol

It’s ok, you don’t understand what I’m asking for

[lost matrix]

Did you see the method i just posted which should replace your utility method?

[quaint mantle]

does removeItem have a customizable amount

you can remove

[lost matrix]

Yes

[brave sparrow]

Let me see if I can find a mapping somewhere in the git repo

[wet breach]

either use what 7smile7 said or use this

if (item.getAmount() == 1) {
    player.getInventory().setItemInMainHand(null);
} else {
    item.setAmount(item.getAmount() - 1);
}

better to use the API though like 7smile7 showed 🙂

[brave sparrow]

Nope, not in the repo

Darn it

[lost matrix]

Isnt this obsolete in newer versions?

Pretty sure setting the amount to 0 is now allowed and will remove the ItemStack

[brave sparrow]

Is anyone on PC and able to download the mapping?

[lost matrix]

Yes

[wet breach]

setting the amount to 0 is exactly the reason they got the assert TRAP error

well I guess it depends which API method they were using

[brave sparrow]

Can you tell me what N is

[lost matrix]

Nope. I would have to download the mappings for that...

[brave sparrow]

That’s why I asked if you could

Lmao
