[tender shard]

it's probably not worth the trouble to "fix" this existing .jar

after all it only has 500 downloads, it will probably never get updated again

well that's not exactly java, but the result of a decompiled shitty plugin lol

[limpid pebble]

yeah, you have a point.

But what does that leave me with

xD

[tender shard]

https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/multi-world-money.6231/

maybe this would be an alternative?

[limpid pebble]

Broken

Tried it

[tender shard]

how exactly is it broken?

[limpid pebble]

I used to use that one though

[tender shard]

it's at least open source

[limpid pebble]

yeah

[tender shard]

so everything can be fixed easily

[limpid pebble]

let me try it and see what happens

I forgot what the issue was

[tender shard]

yeah but anyway, fixing this weird MultiWorldMoney plugin will probably take more time than rewriting it from scratch lmao

but as said, I'm sure someone would change all the messages for you for a tiny bit of $$$ lol

[noble lantern]

intellij refactoring takes 2seconds

select string -> right click -> refactor -> Change string -> its changed everywhere in the project

[tender shard]

ofc but first of all you'd have to turn this into an intellij project

all they have is a weird .jar file

[limpid pebble]

hmm

[noble lantern]

oh thought you were talking about the plugin you just sent :p

[limpid pebble]

MWMoney is workign somehow

Alex I tihnk u may have solved my life issues

lemmie test it a min

[tender shard]

how? 😄

I need some ideas for my string encryption

[river oracle]

all strings encrypt into different youtube urls

[limpid pebble]

All youtube urls link to "Never Gonna Give You Up"

[tender shard]

yeah I already have a rick roll included

one sec I'll compile something

[limpid pebble]

damn Alex

That other plugin u linked works

Idk why it didn't b4

but bet.,

[tender shard]

no idea 😄

so yeah I need ideas for my string encryption

currently there's 4 things:

1. strings having a rick roll link
2. strings having the ``%%USER%%` placeholders etc
3. strings having a copyright message
4. strings without any additional stuff

but I need more funny things like rick roll stuff

oh and a fifth thing: a message telling people to buy the legal version at https://spigotmc.org / plugin link

[zinc mist]

What is the best way to set a certain range of blocks to air?
The way I am currently doing it keeps causing issues with the server and crashes

[tender shard]

how many blocks? in loaded or unloaded chunks?

maybe take a look at this: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/methods-for-changing-massive-amount-of-blocks-up-to-14m-blocks-s.395868/

[zinc mist]

Hmm, well currently its like 3x a 9x4x9 and I would say unloaded

[tender shard]

unloaded chunks is always a problem

9x4x9 is NOTHING

that's only like 4000 blocks

[zinc mist]

it would be hard to load them because the blocks are currently in a world made fully of bedrock XD

[tender shard]

erm wait

it's only 400 blocks

[zinc mist]

XD

yeah its nothing too major

[tender shard]

you can use PaperLib to async load chunks

[zinc mist]

oh?

[tender shard]

https://github.com/PaperMC/PaperLib

[zinc mist]

Haven't used PaperLib before, how do I do that?

perfect

[tender shard]

HOWEVER

if you run the plugin on spigot (instead of paper) it falls back to normal chunk loading

so async loading will only work on paper

[zinc mist]

Well I am currently developing a plugin for paper but figured since most things in paper are still spigot it would be best to ask here XD
So I guess that I already have access to paper lib

[tender shard]

you can just shade PaperLib

it will also work on spigot

buuut on spigot it will not be async. so you can use the same code for both spigot and paper, on paper it'll load chunks async, and on spigot it'll still cause lags

[zinc mist]

I will give it a test and see

Would this be right?:

PaperLib.getChunkAtAsync(origin)
        .thenAccept(c -> rooms.forEach((name,room) -> room.construct(origin)));

[tender shard]

that looks correct

[zinc mist]

Alright, wanted to be sure lol

[tender shard]

but

what does room#construct do?

if it intercepts with nearby chunks, obviously you wanna load them too

otherwise you only load the original chunk async, then you're fucked if your construct method interacts with unloaded chunks directly

[zinc mist]

Hmm, alright. Well the room#construct just makes the 9x9 rooms currently. I am curious though, what would be the best way to load the nearby chunks if they are needed?
I plan to use the nbt files to generate the structures in the future, the for loops way I am doing it now is just for testing

[timber oracle]

are sign packets broken in 1.18.2?

Swear I updated and sendSignChange no longer works

[tender shard]

no?

sendSignChange works fine

[timber oracle]

ill do some more testing but im so confused

[fierce hawk]

Hello, I am having issues with my code. The goal is to give the player a potion effect when they equip a specific Player Skull. The code below works fine in creative but when switching to survival mode, it is unreliable.
Can anyone help fix this code?

    public static void onInventoryClickEvent(InventoryClickEvent event) {
        HumanEntity player = event.getWhoClicked();
        ItemStack item = event.getCursor();
        Bukkit.getServer().getConsoleSender().sendMessage(String.valueOf(event.getSlotType()));
        Bukkit.getServer().getConsoleSender().sendMessage(String.valueOf(event.getRawSlot()));
        if (item.getItemMeta() != null) {
            if (item.getType().equals(Material.PLAYER_HEAD) && ((event.getRawSlot() == 5 && event.isShiftClick() == false) || (event.isShiftClick() == true && event.getRawSlot() != 5))) { //(player.getGameMode() == GameMode.CREATIVE && event.getRawSlot() == 5 || player.getGameMode() == GameMode.SURVIVAL && event.getRawSlot() == 11))
                player.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.FAST_DIGGING, 999999, 2));
            } else {
                player.removePotionEffect(PotionEffectType.FAST_DIGGING);
            }
        }
    }

[tender shard]

that code looks horribly complicated. can you ?paste it pls

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[tender shard]

also erm, why are you listening to a click event if it's about equipping? there's a ton of ways to equip armor

the clickevent isn't enough to listen to

I have a library that adds an ArmorEquipEvent, you might wanna look into using that instead

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/arnuhs-armorequipevent.545188/ @fierce hawk

[zinc mist]

Welp, I found out what the cause of my crazy lag was.
I was using Location#add instead of Location#clone#add so it just kept increasing the values.

[tender shard]

oh yeah, locations are mutable

[fierce hawk]

sure
https://paste.md-5.net/ekisireyif.cs

[zinc mist]

Yeah, it was luckily just something simple.
However my numbers are slightly off, they are generating the rooms at least so thats what matters

[tender shard]

that's horrible. first of all:

1. You're checking the raw slot. The raw slot however is a different slot, depending on what inventory the player has open
2. Why are you checking shift click at all?
3. Why are you removing the effect if the first if isn't true? that basically removes the effect everytime the player clicks into their inventory

You should definitely use the ArmorEquipEvent instead @fierce hawk

[tender shard]

^

right now, player's lose the potion effect e.g. when they craft something, because in the else block, you remove the potion effect

I doubt that's what you wanna achieve

[noble lantern]

A1 naming

[dusk flicker]

static events

ew

[noble lantern]

who what where why and when

[dusk flicker]

this

[river oracle]

👀 static events what the hell

why

what

that is the most horrific thing I've seen in a while

[noble lantern]

i need a bigger screen

[river oracle]

I have a pretty decent sized screen 1366x768 or something like that

[noble lantern]

mines just a 32 inch

[river oracle]

why do you need bigger than that

[tender shard]

why the fuck do I always get ghost pings from this server

[noble lantern]

cause im a little blind so if i wanna see methods on my screen i have to zoom in

but when i zoom in i cant see the full line of code and end up scrolling for days

[zinc mist]

Is there a more efficient way to add a value to a Location without using #clone

[tender shard]

if you worry about performance when doing simple vector math, you should rething your whole concept

is there a specific reason why you're worrying about this?

[zinc mist]

Well, its not about the performance.
its just about me having quite a few clones hanging around

[tender shard]

its just about me having quite a few clones hanging around
?

[zinc mist]

for(int y = 0; y < 4; y++) {
    if(y > 0 && y < 3)
        loc.clone().add(0,y,0).getBlock().setType(Material.GOLD_BLOCK);
    else
        loc.clone().add(0,y,0).getBlock().setType(Material.IRON_BLOCK);
    if (facing == BlockFace.WEST || facing == BlockFace.EAST) {
        loc.clone().add(0,y,-1).getBlock().setType(Material.IRON_BLOCK);
        loc.clone().add(0,y,1).getBlock().setType(Material.IRON_BLOCK);
    } else {
        loc.clone().add(-1,y,0).getBlock().setType(Material.IRON_BLOCK);
        loc.clone().add(1,y,0).getBlock().setType(Material.IRON_BLOCK);
    }
}

Just feels a bit clustered

[tender shard]

yeah tbh that does look disgusting

[zinc mist]

I mean, its only for testing but still

[river oracle]

you could press enter at the end of some of those lines and add some more curly braces

[tender shard]

but performance-wise, there is no problem at all

[zinc mist]

welp, guess I will live with it for now.
After I get a bit of the other code working I will be working on loading the schematics

[tender shard]

I wonder what this is supposed to do in the first place

[river oracle]

ah u can also addcomments to make it more pretty

maek them constructive though like this thing does sthing

[waxen plinth]

Why are you doing this

You can do Block#getRelative(int, int, int) if you want to make it more compact

But you shouldn't be needing this kind of repetitive code anyways

[zinc mist]

Well, I am going to swap over to using that.
I am used to having the ability to add two values together without needing to clone it, so that will work perfectly

[waxen plinth]

What are you trying to do here

What's the goal of this code

[zinc mist]

Well this bit of code is just to clear out some space while I do some testing

That specific line creates the 'door' i am working on

[waxen plinth]

Is it an animation via blocks or something

[zinc mist]

No, just static blocks

[waxen plinth]

So you're creating a static structure

And you want to build it at a relative location

And you're doing this with manual calls to setType using relative coordinates

[zinc mist]

For now yes.
Until I get this bit of code working and add the schematics

[waxen plinth]

Do you want my solution

[zinc mist]

Sure 🙂

[waxen plinth]

I've got a library that does this sort of thing, among many others

You can scan in a structure and then it's pretty trivial to build it programmatically

Rotated, relative to a certain location, mirrored, whatever you need

[zinc mist]

But isnt there already a way to use minecraft structure nbts to spawn in structures?

[waxen plinth]

Think so, haven't dabbled with that part of the api

Since I just use my own

If you're aware of a better way to do it why are you doing it by hand to begin with?

[zinc mist]

Well, I haven't done it either.
I saw it was a thing when poking around a bit, but I was already working on one thing and wanted to finish it before starting another

[vale cradle]

Any idea how to serialize entity nbt and then load it back from it's nbt?

I'm good by knowing how bukkit does it so I can figure out how to do it on my own

[prime kraken]

Hello everyone, I come to ask for your help because I am stuck. I need to use NMS for my server under 1.17.1. I work with intellij idea. I have run Buildtools to get the 1.17.1 version as well as the remapped version. When I ask intellij idea to run the compilation of my plugin, it tells me this : Unresolved dependency: 'org.spigotmcjar:1.17.1-R0.1-SNAPSHOT' (I modified the name of the files before to see if it came from that but no) I used the remapped mojang classifier but nothing to do. Help me please 😦

[kindred valley]

Can someone pls explain simply what is TileState and what is the difference between BlockState, i read the docs for 60 times but as for english is my not native language, im getting stucked. Someone pls explain shortly like explaining it to a dumb.

[vale cradle]

Intellij often gets messy with some dependencies, try going to file > invalidate caches... and see if that solves the problem

[vale cradle]

TileStates are tickable, some things needs to tick in order to work, furnaces, beehives, etc.

[kindred valley]

What is the difference between blockstate

[vale cradle]

BlockState holds some of the Block data, a TileState represents when the Block is loaded and ticking

[prime kraken]

I will check that, thank you so much for your answer

[kindred valley]

So if i need to make PersistentDataContainer of a normal block i need to use BlockState?

[vale cradle]

No, because those PersistentDataContainer methods are not in the BlockState. The only objects that support this are TileEntities as far as I'm aware, hence why the PDC API is only implemented on the TileEntity.

[kindred valley]

I think i got it well

Ty

[vale cradle]

I still need help with this :P

[kindred valley]

Hmm, do the data still storing at block when im placing it

ItemStack item = new ItemStack(Material.QUARTZ_BLOCK);
  ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
  PersistentDataContainer container = meta.getPersistentDataContainer();
  NameapacedKey key = new NamespacedKey(Main.getPlugin(), "itemdata");
  container.set(key, PersistentDataType.DOUBLE, 12.1);

I mean if i place this (Block) item, the data still stays on placed block?

[vale cradle]

No

It wont

if you mean give the item to a player and then be placed by him, then don't

[kindred valley]

Hmm how can i store something to the custom item i placed

[vale cradle]

by listening to their respective events

db

from a json nbt or whatever

[kindred valley]

Hmm so event.getIteminHand can handle my custom item

[vale cradle]

I know, but I would like some help if somebody has knowledge about code this deep or whatever

I think I found it tho

NMS's Entity.load method apparently, I'm not sure

oh, I thought you were talking to him

so, may I know what strategy did you use?

[kindred valley]

Alright tysm

Ah yes i looked at it then confused

[vale cradle]

I don't know, I don't plan to use Bukkit's API

No, they are individually filled in one of the Entity methods

[ornate heart]

Anyone know what version within the world edit api contains the CuboidClipboard class?

Nevermind i just figured it out lets goooo

[crude loom]

Bukkit.getWorld(string name) doesn't work for me when I upload a new world to the server, so I plan on getting the world through the file directory of the server, my question is if I have an instance of a file can I convert/cast it to a world?

[prime kraken]

Hello, i performed on spigot 1.17.1 and I have a question.. I have this code ;

        MinecraftServer server = ((CraftServer) Bukkit.getServer()).getServer();
        WorldServer world = ((CraftWorld) Bukkit.getWorld(p.getWorld().getName())).getHandle();
        GameProfile gameProfile = new GameProfile(UUID.randomUUID(), "");
        EntityPlayer npc = new EntityPlayer(server, world, gameProfile, new PlayerInteractManager(world));
        npc.setLocation(p.getLocation().getX(), p.getLocation().getY(), p.getLocation().getZ(), p.getLocation().getYaw(), p.getLocation().getPitch());

    }```

At the entityPlayer, they return the (world) as underlined, can anyone help me ?

[vale cradle]

that methods only gets already loaded worlds

use the WorldCreator.create to load an unloaded world

[prime kraken]

and they say, required : entityPlayer and Provided : WorldServer

[earnest forum]

they changed nms a lot in 1.17

previous methods don't work

[vale cradle]

besides, Bukkit.getWorld(world.getName())?

just use the world given by the p.getWorld()

[crude loom]

Wouldn't that create the world if it doesn't exist?

[crude loom]

I want to teleport the player to that world, he isn't in that world already

[prime kraken]

Do you know where can i found New methods ?

[earnest forum]

you need the nms world for this

[earnest forum]

you could search them up or look at the source code

I remember getting stuck here and there wasnt lots of tutorials

hi, my spigot isn't remapping properly, ran buildtools with --remapped, and copied the maven thing from one of the posts md_5 made

[karmic mural]

I'm trying to build a plugin so I can fork it, but I'm getting an error when trying to run the server with it. NoClassDefFoundError specifically. I couldn't figure out why that issue appears. It originates at Line 13 of this file https://github.com/oraxen/oraxen/blob/master/src/main/java/io/th0rgal/oraxen/mechanics/provided/gameplay/efficiency/EfficiencyMechanicFactory.java

When it hits this, the plugin fails to enable and goes to disable. It also runs into an issue here, but this time a NullPointerException.
Line 102 in the main class https://github.com/oraxen/oraxen/blob/master/src/main/java/io/th0rgal/oraxen/OraxenPlugin.java

I've tried building a few different ways, maybe I am dumb but what I've been doing is running a gradlew build. I'm going to be contacting the main dev later today, but thought I'd ask here first.

[desert tinsel]

how to create a itemstack for a custom player head from a nbt tag, i searched that, but i didn't find nothing

[chrome beacon]

If you're using nbt tags you need to use NMS

NMS is generally undocumented and you will have to take a look around yourself to see how things work

I do happen to know that you can use the MojangsonParser or TagParser in Mojmaps

Also is there a reason why you want to use nbt tags instead of the api?

[desert tinsel]

nvm, i need to create a itemstack as a head from https://minecraft-heads.com/custom-heads

[chrome beacon]

You can still use the api for this

I explained it a few days ago, let me see if I can find it

[maiden briar]

I have a database somewhere. I am writing a multi-server plugin and the plugin will store data on the database. How can I synchronize the data between the database and the local plugin cache?

[desert tinsel]

what api do i need?

[chrome beacon]

Spigot api 🙂

[desert tinsel]

ah

sure

do you find it?

[chrome beacon]

The conversation starts here. You can read through it, ping me if you have any questions

[desert tinsel]

ok thanks you

[kindred valley]

What was the method removing item from inventory

[maiden briar]

removeItem

[kindred valley]

is it removing all or 1

[maiden briar]

Put in the item you want to remove so 1

[kindred valley]

Hmm how can i directly remove all

[maiden briar]

clear

[kindred valley]

i mean

All item in players hand

Not all inv

[maiden briar]

I believe you can clear per slot. I believe you can get the slot the players hand is on

[kindred valley]

i couldnt find the method wait

Im fucking trying to code note book on school

[maiden briar]

int hand = player.getInventory().getHeldItemSlot();
player.getInventory().setItem(hand, null);

@kindred valley Does this solve your problem?

[kindred valley]

I dont know, im coding it to a notebook 🙃

[maiden briar]

Ok haha just write it down

[kindred valley]

null is valid for slot?

[maiden briar]

But this code is at least accepted in my IDE

[maiden briar]

Yes

It means clearing it

[kindred valley]

Ah alright then that works tysm

[maiden briar]

Np

[desert tinsel]

so that is base64?

[maiden briar]

Yes

[desert tinsel]

ty

[smoky adder]

...

[maiden briar]

It needs 2 arguments

[smoky adder]

Pls can you show me an example?

[maiden briar]

player.sendTitle("This is a awesome title", "This is a awesome subtitle")

If you only want one of them, leave the other empty ("")

[smoky adder]

No i use spigot 1.8.8 sendTitle doesn't exist

[chrome beacon]

Time for packets

Very fun

[smoky adder]

Lol

[maiden briar]

I am coding on 1.8.8... It does

[chrome beacon]

Wait it does? Interessting 🙂

[smoky adder]

I can't use packets

[chrome beacon]

Legacy versions are a pain to work with

[smoky adder]

Pls dm the spigot

You will have to sooner or later if you're on 1.8

        </dependency>

[smoky adder]

Wtf

[maiden briar]

It is only Deprecated

So will most likely not work on newer versions

[smoky adder]

can you send me your jar where do you get the libraries from?

[chrome beacon]

It probably will work

?bt

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/buildtools/

[chrome beacon]

^ this is the only official way to get the spigot jar

But you don't really need it you can just depend on the spigot api

Like tvhee has done above, but with spigot-api instead of spigot inside of the artifact id

[smoky adder]

there is no need to change the jar ?? just change the libraries?

[chrome beacon]

You shouldn't be depending directly on the jar

Use a build system like maven or gradle

[maiden briar]

BuildTools is the way

[maiden briar]

Yes

[smoky adder]

how can I do?

[maiden briar]

https://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/maven-in-five-minutes.html

Yes i use intellij

[torn badge]

Hey guys, I'm looking to implement a dynamic arena creation system for a minigame, which creates a new arena automatically when there are enough players in the queue. My question is, is there a more performant way than creating and loading a world and deleting it after the game is over?

[crimson terrace]

is the map edited or something like that during the minigame?

if not you could theoretically just keep a single map active at all times. just not sure whether that is less performant that creating it when you need it

[smoky adder]

@maiden briar titleAPI is good?

[maiden briar]

Never used it, just try it

[smoky adder]

Okay

[torn badge]

So all players would be on the same location?

[crimson terrace]

I meant a single map inside its own world which you can just tp people to whenever its not occupied and the playercount is reached.

so instead of deleting the map when the players are done you could just keep it there and teleport the next batch of players there

[torn badge]

But there are going to be multiple arenas with the same map at the same time

[crimson terrace]

you can change the amount of maps permanently active. possibly make it depend on the overall playercount?

so if theres 50 players on the entire server just keep 2 of the maps open, if theres 100 keep 4 or something like that

[torn badge]

Hmm that would be an idea

So whenever a player joins or leaves, check how many arenas it would need to fit all online players, and then delete or load one if necessary

[crimson terrace]

basically

as I said, I don't actually know whether its more or less performant to keep the maps open compared to just making them on demand

[torn badge]

I think defining the arena region with WorldEdit and then only loading the chunks which are actually used would also drastically increase performance

And disable spawn chunks

[kindred valley]

Why do we need a File object for custom config file

[crimson terrace]

how else did you wanna make a file?

[lavish hemlock]

Path go brrr

[crimson terrace]

Path#toFile(), right? or is there another method?

[rain grove]

How can you create an object with a new model that does not exist in Minecraft?

[lavish hemlock]

I mean you could just use a Path by itself

[crimson terrace]

well you still need that file so that the path works

[lavish hemlock]

No ya don't

java.nio.path.Files

[crimson terrace]

I mean, how do you wanna access a file that does not exist

[kindred valley]

What is the difference between File and FileConfiguration

What is FileConfiguration pls explain shortly

Couldnt understand from docs

[crimson terrace]

not actually sure, but its a (i think) hashmap representation of the config file? please correct me if im wrong

[kindred valley]

what physically it is

[crimson terrace]

data

[lavish hemlock]

...what do you mean physically?

I mean it's like

Part of your RAM

I suppose

[crimson terrace]

FileConfiguration does not inherit from File, if thats what you mean

[kindred valley]

.

[lavish hemlock]

(At least, for the duration it's allocated)

[crimson terrace]

Burchard got this

[noble lantern]

File - the literal file, eg config.yml, it allows the creation/deletion of the file and opening of the file as a type of InputStream, it holds no data in itself other than that stuff, its basically just a pointer to a file on your system

FileConfiguration - Data from your File, what maow said, it is typically loaded into ram when you load the File -> File Configuration, its basically just the data content of the File

[rain grove]

How can you create an object with a new model that does not exist in Minecraft?

[chrome beacon]

Items yes

yeah but how do i get the id?

[chrome beacon]

Read lt.

[rain grove]

what?

[chrome beacon]

Items can have custom models

[rain grove]

I looked at it, but with that you can include new items? I don't want to replace the ones that are already there

With that method? It is that I have only seen that it replaces the textures of the items, it does not create new ones

hi, I have this error: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 'buw org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_18_R2.inventory.CraftItemStack.asNMSCopy(org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack)' No idea how it's happening, any ideas?

[steel swan]

BukkitScheduler scheduler = Bukkit.getScheduler();
            scheduler.runTaskTimer(this, task -> {
                if (block.getType() != POLISHED_ANDESITE_SLAB) {
                    setintVallue(block, 0);
                task.cancel();
                }else{
                    setintVallue(block, getintVallue(block) + 100);
                }
                        }, 20L, 20L);

so would this work

[steel swan]

send the code

[fringe wyvern]

I should probably clarify it a bit more, this is from remapping

[fringe wyvern]

what got remapped to that: net.minecraft.world.item.ItemStack nmsItem = CraftItemStack.asNMSCopy(item);

[golden kelp]

I am coding a plugin which stores the versions of all plugins installed on the server. How can I get the version from their plugin.yml

[glossy venture]

im pretty sure rheres like a get descriptor method or get version

on the plugin instance

[golden kelp]

it gives a NPe sometimes

[glossy venture]

yes Plugin#getDescription()

[glossy venture]

how

it should never be null

[golden kelp]

Some plugins dont specify the version ig

[crimson terrace]

maybe check whether the plugin instance is null

[golden kelp]

Is it because my plugin is loaded before the plugin i am checking for?

[crimson terrace]

version is standard in my pom

[crimson terrace]

possibly

[glossy venture]

it cant be

[crimson terrace]

its best to set your plugin to load after all other plugins

[golden kelp]

How

[glossy venture]

maybe do it in onEnable and set your plugin to load on STARTUP

then all plugins will have been loaded

but not enabled yet

[crimson terrace]

when you make the project I think you can set when to load it. not sure how to do it once the project has been created already

[golden kelp]

maybe do it in onEnable
i do it when the player executes a cmd

set your plugin to load on STARTUP
how

[glossy venture]

if you do it when the player executes a command there is no way rhe plugins will be null

show code

[crimson terrace]

or do it inside a Bukkit.getScheduler.scheduleSyncDelayedTask

and do it like a minute after onEnable in your plugin

[golden kelp]

https://github.com/vinesh27/VersionCheckerX/blob/main/src/main/java/io/github/vinesh27/versioncheckerx/VersionCheckerX.java

[glossy venture]

wtf where are you getting the versions

oh nevermind

[golden kelp]

https://github.com/vinesh27/VersionCheckerX/blob/main/src/main/java/io/github/vinesh27/versioncheckerx/VersionCheckerX.java#L118

[glossy venture]

check if the plugin is null when getting it

if so then send the player like "unknown plugin name"

[fringe wyvern]

oh sorry I forgot about that, it's on https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/specialsource-not-working.555449/ , i made a thread on the spigot forums

[crude loom]

How do I rename a file in the plugin's data folder? I know that I can user file.renameTo(File file) But this method receives a file, how do I rename an existing one?

[eternal night]

https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/18/docs/api/java.base/java/io/File.html#renameTo(java.io.File) is the method you want to use o.O ?

what is the issue what that method

[crude loom]

What am I supposed to pass to that method?
Lets say I have a file variable named f and I want to rename it to "newName"?

[compact haven]

Just create a new file

new File(“newName.txt”)

[eternal night]

Well if you have a file, lets say ```java
final File dataFolder = ....;
final File existingFile = new File(dataFolder, "f");
existingFile.renameTo(new File(dataFolder, "b"));

renames your f to b

[compact haven]

A file object doesn’t actually represent a file on the file system (like it doesn’t need to exist)

and yeah make sure you specify the parent my bad

[crude loom]

Oh I see, thanks for the help!

How do I save these changes? because I see that they are being done but for some reason after I rename a file the plugin still sees the old name

When I execute this : getServer().createWorld(new WorldCreator(file.getName()))
Does this create a new world with the file's name or does it load the world that is in the file?

[eternal night]

Both

If the file exists it loads the world from the file

If it doesn’t it creates the world instead

[surreal prawn]

is there a cleaner way to write this?

[brave goblet]

Why don't end portals fall under the event PortalCreateEvent?

[surreal prawn]

try https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/entity/EntityCreatePortalEvent.html

[eternal oxide]

they are under DragonBattle

[brave goblet]

ah right

[brave goblet]

thanks but ill also try out PlayerPortalEvent

if it doesn't work ill also try ur method

[brave goblet]

'org.bukkit.event.entity.EntityCreatePortalEvent' is deprecated

[surreal prawn]

oh, mb then

[brave goblet]

it's ok

but ur method actually has portal type

why the fuck would they separate the different portals lol

[upper niche]

Constructors are how you instantiate an object. It lets you control what exactly happens when you first create an object, before doing anything else to it.

[brave goblet]

old depreciated method lets gooooo!

[eternal night]

the server creates the instance of your plugin's main class

[upper niche]

It's called when Spigot loads the plugin.

[midnight shore]

Hi! Can anyone please tell me an idea for a boss? Whatever theme is accepted

            player.setVelocity(player.getLocation().getDirection().multiply(-1));
            player.setNoDamageTicks(40);
            event.setCancelled(true);
        }
    }```
How can i make it so that it waits before i send another message? instead of spamming the player

[eternal night]

Well, the server will try to teleport the player each tick they are inside the portal

you will have to implement a cooldown yourself

[brave goblet]

what would be a good approach to a cooldown?

[eternal night]

I mean, a plain Map<UUID, Long>

[crimson terrace]

ahahha

nah somehow not working

p.getItemInHand()*

I'm pretty sure the event one is like get tool or something

neverm ijnd

[kindred valley]

how can i contain datas on a normal block

not a tile

or can i

[tardy delta]

i wouldnt create variables before checking whether or not to return

[eternal night]

blocks don't hold data

tile entities do

if your block does not hold onto a tile entity

you cannot store custom data in it

[tardy delta]

i would cache namespacedkeys but is that really worth it?

[earnest forum]

a regular block like stone or grass cannot hold data, but anything that has further functionality like a furnace, beacon, etc, has custom data availability

[desert tinsel]

why i have that error: Unable to make field private java.lang.Object java.lang.ref.Reference.referent accessible: module java.base does not "opens java.lang.ref" to unnamed module @7ff2a664
my code is:java public static void saveBlocks() throws IOException { Gson gson = new Gson(); File file = new File(plugin.getDataFolder().getAbsolutePath() + "/blockStorage.json"); file.getParentFile().mkdir(); file.createNewFile(); Writer writer = new FileWriter(file, false); gson.toJson(blocksList, writer); writer.flush(); writer.close(); System.out.println("All blocks have saved"); }

[tardy delta]

use new File(plugin.getDataFolder(), "blockstorage.json") instead

wont solve it but ye

[desert tinsel]

Also, the error is in line: gson.toJson(blocksList, writer)

And blocksList is an ArrayList

[tardy delta]

if i do getConfig().options().copyDefaults and then something liek config.getString("smth here") when that string isnt set, will it return the default value from within the yml file in the jar?

[sterile token]

You should set via:

getConfig().set(key, value)

Or that what i think

You can always use my simple class for files

So you can either load files with content from yaml inside jar or empty file

[tardy delta]

well basically my problem is that rn im having an enum to save lang defaults in, and i would rather save them in the file directly because i need to initialize those values and stuff

looks like this atm
https://github.com/FourteenBrush/MagmaBuildNetworkReloaded/blob/master/src/main/java/me/fourteendoggo/MagmaBuildNetworkReloaded/utils/Lang.java

[carmine mica]

is there an event for when a chest is opened/closed?

[sterile token]

Wait you can do:

Enum.values().forEach()

[sterile token]

InventoryOpenEvent and InventoryCloseEvent

[carmine mica]

Ah okay

[tardy delta]

look at the Lang#initialize method, thats what im trying to avoid

there must be a more elegant way

[sterile token]

where that?

[tardy delta]

scroll down or do ctrl + f lol

[sterile token]

Im on cellphone

Send a cap please

Or send the code

[sterile token]

Replace the for to:

Lang.values().foreach(entry -> yaml.set(entry, entry.getText()));

getText() replace it according to your method

[grim ice]

1. Early return
2. dont call your variables one letters
3. you dont need to make a seperate namespacedkey for each block placed, just one for everything

[kindred valley]

i handled all this

[carmine mica]

I can't find any methods for animations or sounds in there

[kindred valley]

im f*cking dealing with fileconfigs

i mean i get all logic of it but when phsycially the thing i want to see in config, i cant code it

[tardy delta]

you need to go into spectator mode for a short time to disable the animation

and handle the item clicks

atleast thats what i think is the easiest way

[sterile token]

You can see the docs

[sterile token]

Do you want to see my file handler?

[kindred valley]

I want to create a thing like this when player puts a block

Locations:
  location:
    x: {}
    y: {}
    z: {}

String text = "Locations"
Configs.fileConfig.createSection(text + ".location");
Configs.fileConfig.createSection(text + ".location.x");
Configs.fileConfig.createSection(text + ".location.y");
Configs.fileConfig.createSection(text + ".location.z");
Configs.fileConfig.save(Configs.file);

i have this

[grim ice]

start by learning java

[sacred mountain]

hey how should i calculate a 'Top Overall Player' using Kill rank, death rank, highest bow accuracy, highest mob kills, damage dealt, damage taken etc

[delicate lynx]

just save the location by itself, you are making yourself do more work this way

[grim ice]

(kdr * bow accuracy) / mob kills * (damage dealt / damage taken)

maybe

idk

[sacred mountain]

bow accuracy is (hitShots / Math.max(1, totalShots)) * 100

so its a percentage atm

i just dont know how i would put them all together nicely to have a fair top player

[torpid jewel]

    execute console command: "/kickall"
        wait 1 tick
            execute console command: "/tempban * 1d maintenance, you are not banned, this is a whitelist"```

Would this work?

I'm brand new to skript, haven't done it before, ever.

[sacred mountain]

and idk why you would divide by mob kills, surely that would decrease their total?

I'm thinking something like
int playerTotalStat = (kills - deaths) + hitShots + mobKills + (damageDealt - damageTaken);
@grim ice

[ivory sleet]

lightfury how are you adding em all up rn

oh

ugh

[sacred mountain]

idk i wrote that in discord

i havent done it yet

[torpid jewel]

.

Would that work?

[sacred mountain]

thats skript

[torpid jewel]

I have absolutely no idea on how to do this

oh

[sacred mountain]

this is for java im fairly sure

[torpid jewel]

Ah alright

where would I go for that?

Well

what I need

[sacred mountain]

the skript discord if they have one

[delicate lynx]

doesn't skript have a discord?

[torpid jewel]

Can you send me it please?

[ivory sleet]

lightfury okay first of all how easy is it to get damage dealt contrary to a kill

and how easy is a mob kill contrary to a normal kill

you need to figure that out

[sacred mountain]

i mean to kill a player on max health, you would gain at least 20 damage per kill

[ivory sleet]

and then translate each one of them into a unanimous currency

[sacred mountain]

and a mob kill is easier because they arent critting you out constatntly

but you still get damage so

[ivory sleet]

like "skill points" or sth where every other unit in your system can be translated to this unit

pretty much how its done everywhere

[sacred mountain]

ill try

im updating the leaderboard a lot so i may not calculate it every time, maybe just get the values and add the skill points when people kill each other. I'm thinking i could just have a leaderboard for each stat and then have a 'skill point' leaderboard.

[ivory sleet]

yes

thats also one way to do it

[grim ice]

(kills + hitShots + (mobKills / 2) + (damageDealt / damagetaken))-(deaths/10)

maybe try urs tho

or well

[desert tinsel]

still the same error

[grim ice]

(hitShots/100) + ((kills+deaths)/damageDealt)) + (damageTaken / (kills/1000))

Any good library for managing Json and Yaml files?

I have seen Gson or Jackson what do you recommend?

[kind hatch]

YAML is pretty easy with the API. I think Gson is what most people use here.

[river oracle]

Gson over Jackson

[sterile token]

Yes

I know the 2 of them support json and yaml parsing

I want a library for parsing yaml and json, so them i can built my own file api

What do you think? iI accept opinions

How to calculate the Speed of a player?

I thought player.getVelocity().length(); would do, but its just the acceleration :/

So sneaking, sprinting, walking all gives the same result

I know i could make a map for every player and in moveevent use pythagoream theorem to calculate the distance since last moveevent and divide by time since last moveevent

but thats kinda suuuper complicated. Does anyone know an easier way?

[kindred valley]

How can I add a new section to the config every time?

[kind hatch]

Wdym new section? Like another node or something like a value in a list?

[kindred valley]

Locations:
  location:
    x: 
    y: 
    z:
  location:
    x:
    y:
    z: 

Everytime a new location

[kind hatch]

You could use #createSection() or just #set() the new section.

[sterile token]

What the diff between node and section?

I always asked that question

[kind hatch]

Idk, I.refer to them as nodes but sections also work. I categorize sections as a group of nodes like in his example.

It’s just language semantics

[sterile token]

So nodes can either be? string, integer, byte, etc, maps?

[kind hatch]

The path to it yes.

[sterile token]

node - will be a key-value
section - will be a collection of key-value

🤔

[kind hatch]

Again, really just semantics, but I refer to them as nodes because they are similar to permission nodes.

Permission Node: myplugin.command.permission
YAML Node/Path: path.to.your.value

[sterile token]

Yeah

Shadow can i ask you some personal questions?

[kind hatch]

I guess.

[solid cargo]

can i put letters like: š, ā, ģ in .yml file comments?

[sterile token]

Allright:

1. Do you think a file api would be useful?
2. What data format will you add for support?

[sterile token]

I think yes

[kindred valley]

its not creating the new one, its overwriting

did i make mistakes on load/save?

[kind hatch]

Depends on what it would do. I already know how to use the File class, so it’s not hard to get data.

If you are talking about different formats, then possibly.

[kind hatch]

Is it the same location? Because if it is, then it will be overwritten.

[kindred valley]

no

[kind hatch]

Like the path name?

[sterile token]

Yes an all in one simple library for working with differents storage formats, like yaml, json, xml, etc

[kindred valley]

oh yes it is

[kind hatch]

That would be why

[kind hatch]

That would be useful for file based storage yea. If it was as easy as the API makes it for yaml, then it could be really useful.

Another one for relational databases would be just as nice. However I’m not sure how easy it’d be to make.

I already am working a similar setup for my plugins, but it is a bit messy atm. Different storage solutions require certain things.

Caching is another problem I’m trying to work around.

[sterile token]

Allright so you agree that doing my storage api wouldnt be a lost of time

Allright so will start working on the lib

Also shadow i want some help about coding the section thing

[green prism]

Hmn

Looks strange that

[kindred valley]

but, how can i provide it always to create another one with diff name

[sterile token]

Another section?

[kind hatch]

That’s up to you. Idk what it’s for so I can only give general suggestions.

Similar to warp plugins, put the location in a subsection that’s the name of the warp.

I changed my name via programming but it doesn’t update and it always stays the same until I reload. Same for all values

Wait explain carefully hat doing

[kindred valley]

ok, im trying to do if a player puts block, writing the blocks location to the data for all block i putted.

but its always overwriting

after placing

[sterile token]

Oh ok

You should keep the blocks in memory

And then right back to file

I dont know what you are doing exactly that why

[green prism]

I simply made a plug-in that allows you to create a custom name, gender and age and puts them in the config (and then giving value to the placeholder). I added a command that allows you to reset the values of this player and re-entering them requires the "setup" resetting the data in the config. The problem is that the data remains old and the placeholder does not update except with a /reload confirm

Allright thanks

Let me check

[green prism]

and this is the part of the command which reset the name

                    if(args[0].equalsIgnoreCase("removePlayer") && sender.hasPermission("identity.removePlayer")) {
                        if(main.getConfig().isConfigurationSection("data") && main.getConfig().getConfigurationSection("data").contains(args[1])) {
                            main.getConfig().set("data." + args[1], null);
                            main.saveConfig();```

[crisp steeple]

are you sure that you have that permossion?

also is it the file that isn’t updating or is it just in game

[green prism]

the file is surely updated

it works I tested

Doing /papi reload doesn’t change anything then idk

[tender shard]

Hi in my kitpvp plugin i want the snowball refill when kill, im a new developer can any one help me pls?

        ItemMeta SBMeta = Arrow.getItemMeta();
        SBMeta.setDisplayName("§7Snow Ball");
        SB.setItemMeta(SBMeta);

        k.getInventory().setItem(0, SB); ```

i know the snowball will take the slot 1

but idk how to make it refill the snowball

[tender shard]

i want the snowball refill when kill
whut?

[kindred valley]

i want to store every block i placed.

but its overwriting and overwriting

[tender shard]

I'll just do it like this lol

[tender shard]

what is overwriting what?

[kindred valley]

everytime i put a block its not creating a new section, its just changing the x, y, z of the location

[tender shard]

section? I have no idea what you're talking about

maybe show us some code

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[tender shard]

are you storing blocks in a config file?

[kindred valley]

locations

[tender shard]

okay, show some code pls

[kindred valley]

i mean the location of block

let me explaing it bit because i made it a bit long

int y1 = (int) e.getBlock().getLocation().getY();
        int y2 = (int) e.getBlock().getLocation().getY() -1;
        int y3 = (int) e.getBlock().getLocation().getY() +1;

        int x = (int) e.getBlock().getLocation().getX();
        int x1 = x - 1;
        int x2 = x - 1;
        int x3 = x - 1;
        int x4 = x;
        int x5 = x + 1;
        int x6 = x + 1;
        int x7 = x + 1;
        int x8 = x;

        int z = (int) e.getBlock().getLocation().getZ();
        int z1 = z;
        int z2 = z + 1;
        int z3 = z - 1;
        int z4 = z - 1;
        int z5 = z - 1;
        int z6 = z;
        int z7 = z + 1;
        int z8 = z + 1;

        String text = "Locations";
        Configs.fileConfig.createSection(p.getUniqueId() + ".");
        Configs.fileConfig.set(p.getUniqueId() + ".locations.x", x);
        Configs.fileConfig.set(p.getUniqueId() + ".locations.y", y1);
        Configs.fileConfig.set(p.getUniqueId() + ".locations.z", z);
        Configs.fileConfig.save(Configs.file);

[tender shard]

well your section is called "uuid."

so obviously you overwrite it every time

instead of saving a configurationsection, you should save a List<ConfigurationSection>

or just directly store a List<Location>

[kindred valley]

ah actually wait

yes

[kindred valley]

but i made all things integer

for casting location as Integer

[tender shard]

Why don't you just save a List<Location>?

List<Location> locations = new ArrayList<>();
list.add(someLocation);
configFile.set("locations",locations);

[sterile token]

agree

[fallen sandal]

I need a help in bukkit schedular.. can somebody tell me how to send a msg per minute.. whats the delay time

I tried this. But i dont think so its working correctly

0L, 60 * 1000

[green prism]

verano, do u have any idea for this prob?

[kindred valley]

because its returning double

Quick java question, how can I pass a throwable to a different function when the catch block defines the exception as multiple types?

[sterile token]

To me?

[desert tinsel]

not

[sterile token]

Oh ok sorry

[desert tinsel]

i want link

[ivory sleet]

basically instanceof

and then cast

since thats a union type

[tender shard]

that works fine

[quaint mantle]

you dont need to loop anything

if you implement ConfigurationSerializable or smth for the value type then you dont have to worry about doing it manually

[kindred valley]

how can i control if player is close a specified location

[quaint mantle]

wym

[kindred valley]

Is a player close to a location I have specified

[plain oracle]

okay i have a kitpvp plugin, the default kit have Axe - 16x Snowball - Bow
i want when the player kill other player refill the snowball to 16

[tender shard]

1. apply a special PDC tag to the snowball itemstack
2. when a player dies, get their killer
3. if the killer has the snowball itemstack, set it's amount to 16

[quaint mantle]

private final double maxDistance;

boolean isInRange(Location loc, Location area) {
    return loc.distance(area) <= maxDistance;
}

[desert tinsel]

can anyone help me?

[rugged cargo]

can you change how fast a particle changes it texture? my assumption is no

[kindred valley]

i want to store the specified locations on a yml config and try to control if is player close to the locations on yml.

[tender shard]

what version of Gson are you using?

try to use a more recent version of gson and it should work

[quaint mantle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/configuration/ConfigurationSection.html#getLocation(java.lang.String)

[desert tinsel]

I use the version shown in github

[tender shard]

ConfigurationSection also has "getLocation()"

[quaint mantle]

good to know

use that

[tender shard]

hm then I have no idea

[scarlet sun]

Im having trouble with my GUI. I have used InventoryClickEvent to disable dragging items in and out from the GUI and it doesn't fully work. When i try to put an item in to GUI with right click - the gui closes, but when i put an item with left click - it stays and when i close the gui manually - the item just disappears. Any ideas how to fix it? My code:

    @EventHandler
    public void onInventoryClick(final InventoryClickEvent event) {
        final Player whoClicked = (Player) event.getWhoClicked();
        final String title = event.getView().getTitle();
        if (!(title.equalsIgnoreCase(whoClicked.getName() + "Žmogžudžių gaudytojas"))) return;
        event.setCancelled(true);

[tender shard]

try it in survival mode

creative is weird because the inventories are mostly client sided

[scarlet sun]

Tried in survival and now it allows me to use the gui as a trash can with both mouse buttons

even worse :D

But atleast it doesn't allow me to drag items out of the gui

[tender shard]

how are you opening the inventory? I assume that you create a new one everytime?

[desert tinsel]

🥺

[tender shard]

if so, obviously it will be empty when you reopen it

[quaint mantle]

unnecessary finals ☹️

[scarlet sun]

yea, creating new one

[tender shard]

yeah so everything works, where's the problem?

if you create a new inventory, of course it will be empty

[scarlet sun]

I mean i dont need to save the items

I need to disallow players to put something in the gui

[kindred valley]

@quaint mantle do you have anything i can read about this sh*t cause just because of this yml stuff i will leave java

[tender shard]

have you checked if your "if" statement actually evaluates to true?

[quaint mantle]

?configs

[undone axle]

See this wiki page on how to use custom configuration files: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/config-files/

[tender shard]

like - are you sure that you cancel the event?

also you must also listen to InventoryDragEvent

[scarlet sun]

    @EventHandler
    public void onInventoryClick(final InventoryClickEvent event) {
        final Player whoClicked = (Player) event.getWhoClicked();
        final String title = event.getView().getTitle();
        if (!(title.equalsIgnoreCase(whoClicked.getName() + "Žmogžudžių gaudytojas"))) return;
        event.setCancelled(true);

this is the code

[quaint mantle]

really shouldnt compare titles

[tender shard]

I know that this is your code, and as I said, the title is probably incorrect

[scarlet sun]

ah

[plain oracle]

aah I don't think I understand what you mean

[quaint mantle]

?pdc

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-guide-to-1-14-persistentdataholder-api.371200/

[tender shard]

your inventory is called Žmogžudžių gaudytojas

[scarlet sun]

right

[tender shard]

however you check if the inventory is called "<playername> Žmogžudžių gaudytojas"

[quaint mantle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/entity/PlayerDeathEvent.html

#getKiller()

[scarlet sun]

Ooooh

Right

Im so stupid

[quaint mantle]

loop through the inventory until you find the snowball pdc, (optimizable)

[scarlet sun]

so it should be like this?

[tender shard]

no, you shouldn't use titles to identify your inventory in the first place 😛

you should store your inventories in a set or map or similar

then you can check in the clickevent if yourSet.contains(inventory)

[quaint mantle]

or use reference == for more safety, i think that works

[scarlet sun]

some people say i should check inventories using titles ._. idk who to trust

[scarlet sun]

Alright, i'll try that

[tender shard]

== and equals() are the same for inventories

[quaint mantle]

fr

?stash

[undone axle]

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

[tender shard]

oh wait

no, CraftInventory implements equals like this:

    public boolean equals(Object obj) {
        return obj instanceof CraftInventory && ((CraftInventory)obj).inventory.equals(this.inventory);
    }

still, it's basically the same

[quaint mantle]

messy

[tender shard]

so yeah using equals() on an inventory will never compare the contents

so it's fine to use for this stuff I guess :3

[scarlet sun]

But what will happen if i will identify invetories using titles

Like, what are the security issues?

[tender shard]

you go to hell

[quaint mantle]

can confirm

[tender shard]

well it will work if done properly, BUT

[quaint mantle]

can be manipulated

for instance if another plugin allows custom GUIs

or renaming chests

is that a plugin? im finna do that

[tender shard]

lets assume you want to give your father 100€ but not to anyone else. now someone comes to you who has the same name as your father, and you give him 100€.

obviously that's not what you wanted. you wanted to give 100€ to your father and not to some person who randomly had the same name

[scarlet sun]

ah, i get it

but if the server is using only like 2 plugins and they dont allow renaming chests or making custom guis

[tender shard]

yeah as said, it will probably work fine

it's bad practice nonetheless

simply do this:

final Set<Inventory> myGuiInventories = new HashSet<>();

everytime you open a custom GUI inv, add it to that set

everytime a player closes any inv, remove that inv from the set

now you can simply check if myGuiInventories.contains(event.getInventory())

[hybrid spoke]

or check the holder and let your custom inventory implement InventoryHolder

[quaint mantle]

no

[tender shard]

that's not supposed to be done

[hybrid spoke]

idc

[quaint mantle]

should probably use Map<UUID, Inventory>

[tender shard]

although I have to admit, I also use custom inventory holders

[tender shard]

well they don't really need the "owner" of the inv

they only want to see "is this my custom inv"

[hybrid spoke]

its in the api so useable by us

[tender shard]

sure it's usable, but the api docs also say you shouldnt implement it

as said, I also abuse inventoryholders myself, but actually one should not do that

[quaint mantle]

what about different owners, same inventory, resulting in the same functionality

[hybrid spoke]

where?

[tender shard]

they only want to prevent people putting stuff into the GUI

[quaint mantle]

oh aight

[tender shard]

on the overview page

one sec

[hybrid spoke]

[tender shard]

BungeeCord Chat: https://javadoc.io/doc/net.md-5/bungeecord-chat/latest/index.html

[quaint mantle]

api implementation change

[tender shard]

a new method gets added to the InventoryHolder interface and your plugin breaks

[tender shard]

The Bukkit API is designed to only be implemented by server software.

[scarlet sun]

Okay i did that and it works :D Thank you :P

[tender shard]

np 🙂

[hybrid spoke]

so on own risk

[tender shard]

you have to remember to remove the inventories from the set in InventoryCloseEvent

[hybrid spoke]

like everything in bukkit

[tender shard]

otherwise you'll have a memory leak

[scarlet sun]

ah okay

[tender shard]

you can simply do this:

@EventHandler
public void onInvClose(InventoryCloseEvent event) {
  mySet.remove(event.getInventory());
}

[scarlet sun]

did it

thank you

[tender shard]

np

[scarlet sun]

by the way, is there any way to check if player is holding the specific item and when he's not holding it - it will run command?

broken english but i hope you understand :D

[quaint mantle]

your english is perfectly understandable

just worded a little weirdly

[quaint mantle]

if (customItem.isSimilar(player.getInventory().getItemInMainHand()) {
    // run code
}

if the custom item can change, sometimes by config, you should use PDC

[plain oracle]

this bug in the Scoreboard idk why at all

              int Deaths12 = StatsAPI.getDeaths(p.getName());

[quaint mantle]

p is null

[plain oracle]

how?

what

ok how can i fix that ?

[fickle helm]

does anyone use Aikar's Annotation Command Framework (ACF)?

[quaint mantle]

you should use redlib by @waxen plinth

its better

https://github.com/redempt/redlib

[fickle helm]

I like ACF, the only problem is it's inflating my jar file by 325 kb. trying to figure out if that's expected or I'm doing something wrong

[quaint mantle]

325kb is nothing

you can use the minimizeJar setting in maven tho

[fickle helm]

I am

[quaint mantle]

oh jesus

[fickle helm]

it's a small plugin, 10kb without ACF, so it seems rediculous to add so much size just to ease the command programming

[quaint mantle]

sooooo dont use it

unless you manually modify ACF its not gonna get smaller

Can you please help me?
when i import org.bukkit.plugin.java.Javaplugin it says it cannot be resolved
even i did everything in the tutorial

heres the tutorial

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4W4drYdb4Q&t=332s

[tender shard]

it's "JavaPlugin" and not Javaplugin"

[quaint mantle]

i know

..

[quaint mantle]

i had writen it corectly

then you dont have it as a dependency

[tender shard]

btw the tutorial is quite shitty. I would suggest that you get started with maven right now

[quaint mantle]

codedred :/

[tender shard]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/how-to-create-your-first-minecraft-plugin-using-the-spigot-api-and-maven/ this is for intellij, but it will be very similar in eclipse

you should definitely read this and use maven to handle your dependencies, instead of manually adding them

@quaint mantle

either maven or gradle, but definitely NOT like they do it in the video

[quaint mantle]

ok

[manic delta]

can i ask mongodb things here? 💀 maybe someone knows

[quaint mantle]

yes

[opal juniper]

yeah

[quaint mantle]

anything development related

[golden turret]

how can i make the rayTrace ignore some blocks

like, i would like to ignore the barrier

[manic delta]

oh wait i just see there's a Updates.unset() method

maybe it works for it

[rugged cargo]

what does Player#getItemInMainHand return if there is no item?

[manic delta]

maybe air for sure, i will search 1sec

[rugged cargo]

its annoted with @NotNull so does that mean it will never return null?

air would indeed make sense

air seems to be what's used whenever there is "nothing"

[manic delta]

yea i think

there's nothing on api docs

[rugged cargo]

thats why i asked. :)

thanks though

[waxen plinth]

based

[waxen plinth]

Would you like to try mine?

It gives multiple options

You can shade RedCommands, which is quite small - 72kb unminimized

You can shade RedLib, 400kb, which includes RedCommands

Or you can put RedLib as a plugin dependency and not shade anything at all

[rugged cargo]

confirmed through testing is it indeed AIR

[waxen plinth]

And it's easier than acf to use

[golden turret]

how can i make a block not persistent, make he disappear when the server restarts

[quaint mantle]

save to map

just air

[golden turret]

it is for a minigame

so i would like not to see the blocks after the server crashes

[quaint mantle]

?

[quaint mantle]

save to map

[waxen plinth]

Do you mean feature requests

You can do it on the spigot JIRA

[golden turret]

that map would need to be persistent then 😡

[waxen plinth]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/jira/secure/Dashboard.jspa

[quaint mantle]

save to config

like are you following me here

[golden turret]

i dont want a config

[quaint mantle]

bro

[golden turret]

nor a database

[quaint mantle]

so stubborn for what

[waxen plinth]

Yeah why do you not want to do that

[tender shard]

imajine

2015/2016 quiz?

[waxen plinth]

If you really hate it that much you could use chunk pdc

[quaint mantle]

no

[tender shard]

:<

[quaint mantle]

working on a lite plugin

gonna make it extremely feature rich

for like the simplest thing ever

[tender shard]

chunk pdc ❤️

for real, PDC is the best thing that was ever added to bukkit

[quaint mantle]

can pdc modify nbt

[tender shard]

of course

but

BUT

no "vanilla" nbt lol

PDC is like a "subsystem" of NBT

[quaint mantle]

wack asf

its like non-rooted phones

no point to it

[tender shard]

e.g. imagine you save "asd" inside the PDC usin g namespacedkey "chestsort:keyname", the whole NBT thing will look like this:

BukkitValues: {
  "chestsort:keyname": "asd"
}
