[opal juniper]

so pull and fix the merge conflicts

[jagged quail]

ok its fixed now

[urban kernel]

hm

[opal juniper]

you probably edited it on github

[jagged quail]

yeah

i edited 1 file in github

[opal juniper]

there you go then

[humble tulip]

@jagged quail are u using mfnalex's updatecchecker?

[jagged quail]

yes

[brittle lily]

Hey Guys How Can I Set Material of GUI on config?

[urban kernel]

how

do

i

check

if

ags

are

present

[paper viper]

dude

[eternal oxide]

don;t spam

[paper viper]

type in a full message

smh

[urban kernel]

sowwy <3

[paper viper]

check if args.length is 0

[brittle lily]

remove "[0]"

[eternal oxide]

and the "" around 0

[paper viper]

You like rlly need to learn some java basics

sorry

[jagged quail]

working good now

[paper viper]

Like arrays should be one of the first things you learn

[urban kernel]

are java arrays the same as js arrays

[paper viper]

not really

lol

[urban kernel]

ah

[tardy delta]

https://tenor.com/view/merge-balls-boom-gif-14143253

[urban kernel]

how many = do i pit

put

[tardy delta]

git merge be like

[jagged quail]

this is meant to be an about command

[urban kernel]

its good

[subtle folio]

git merge good

[urban kernel]

chat flood

[ivory sleet]

lol pulse

[paper viper]

lol

[urban kernel]

blocklist.add()

[paper viper]

that isnt even proper syntax

lol

[urban kernel]

js

[ivory sleet]

class blocklist {
static void add(){}
}

:3

[paper viper]

smh

lmao

[urban kernel]

blocklist.add("347005619825278976")

[ivory sleet]

can we just like, drop js

a scummy language

[urban kernel]

shush

js > all

[ivory sleet]

you did not just ...

say t hat

[urban kernel]

if (args.length === "0") {

    }

[paper viper]

dude thats not even right

[urban kernel]

2 and 3 "=" throw err

[paper viper]

for java

please

actually learn some basic syntax

js is not java

[brittle lily]

Then make your plugins with js lol

[urban kernel]

i cant

idot

[humble tulip]

=====

[brittle lily]

exactly xddd

[paper viper]

=== syntax isnt in java

[urban kernel]

you wish

[brittle lily]

======

[eternal oxide]

You are wanting to check the length, which is a number value. "0" is trying to compare teh value of length to a String

[ivory sleet]

well === is js is equivalent to == in java
and == in js is equivalent to Objects.equals() in java

[urban kernel]

so i remove ""?

[jagged quail]

i have my gross first fly command on github

[eternal oxide]

yes

[jagged quail]

it used an arraylist

instead of hashlist

[opal juniper]

doesnt even do anything!!! xD

[acoustic pendant]

ik this is a basic java question, but I didn't have anywhere to ask...

how can I loop into an array and stop when an array is null?

[eternal oxide]

and only two =

[urban kernel]

yeah i did

ty

[jagged quail]

@opal juniper want to see my horrible first fly command

[opal juniper]

sure

[jagged quail]

https://github.com/oliver194/Mecha-Plugin/blob/1.2-ALPHA/src/main/java/me/oliver193/mecha/commands/FlyCommand.java

[opal juniper]

this Msg class is gross

and magic colour values 🤮

[ivory sleet]

[opal juniper]

Just use a Set instead of an ArrayList

[jagged quail]

want to see the latest version

https://github.com/oliver194/Mecha-Plugin/blob/1.4.8-ALPHA/src/main/java/me/oliver193/mecha/commands/FlyCommand.java

[opal juniper]

at least you are using the uuids not player refs

[acoustic pendant]

bump

[opal juniper]

https://github.com/oliver194/Mecha-Plugin/blob/1.4.8-ALPHA/src/main/java/me/oliver193/mecha/commands/FlyCommand.java#L32 does this work?

like

[ivory sleet]

like

when an element in any given array is null?

[acoustic pendant]

I mean

[jagged quail]

i'll actually go test it @opal juniper

[acoustic pendant]

I want to check if an array has a value

and if not do some thing

[opal juniper]

the logic seems like it shouldnt work

[jagged quail]

its alpha for a reason 🤷

[acoustic pendant]

but if it has a value check the next

[ivory sleet]

oh

well linear search Ig

[opal juniper]

yeah

😳

what was that

[subtle folio]

what is a bStats **

[paper viper]

lol

[subtle folio]

my bad autocorrect

[urban kernel]

a stats websit

[ivory sleet]

||```java
T[] arr;

for (T element : arr) {
if(element == null) {
continue;
}

//TODO
}```||

[urban kernel]

websit

[acoustic pendant]

okay ty

[urban kernel]

it sits on the web

[jagged quail]

why is "bastard" in your autocorrect 🤔

[subtle folio]

what’s it used for

[opal juniper]

collecting stats

lol

[subtle folio]

👀

[opal juniper]

about your plugin

[urban kernel]

logging plug stats

[subtle folio]

oh lol

cool ig

[opal juniper]

like the users, where they are, what java ver, os info etc

[subtle folio]

i see i see

[jagged quail]

even my bad plugin has bStats https://bstats.org/plugin/bukkit/Mecha-Plugin/15385

[subtle folio]

then i can sell the data to advertisers?

[urban kernel]

even my shit one doesnt

[brittle lily]

Can you guys suggest me plugins to make on middle level. I keep doing the same things.

[opal juniper]

nope its a non profit

[subtle folio]

cringe

[jagged quail]

all it does is collect info about the server

[subtle folio]

crafting recipes

[jagged quail]

as he said

[subtle folio]

make smt fancy

i got it

[acoustic pendant]

the "continue;" continues the loop right?

[brittle lily]

okay thanks

[urban kernel]

ChatColor is awful, why cant we use & colours

like &2,&c

[subtle folio]

ew

[tardy delta]

skips the code that comes after the continue

[opal juniper]

yes, it skips to next iteration

[subtle folio]

ru dumb

[tardy delta]

and goes to the next iteration ^

[jagged quail]

dont want to look at my Msg class then 👀

[ivory sleet]

oh yeah adri

[subtle folio]

lmfao

[ivory sleet]

im a dummy, you probably wanna break

[urban kernel]

y

[tardy delta]

custom lang file when

[acoustic pendant]

k ty

😄

[jagged quail]

https://github.com/oliver194/Mecha-Plugin/blob/master/src/main/java/me/oliver193/mecha/Msg.java

[urban kernel]

    Bukkit.broadcastMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "[" + ChatColor.RED + ChatColor.GOLD + "]" + ChatColor.WHITE + args[0]);

[crisp steeple]

"&aSuccess".clr()

[jagged quail]

package me.oliver193.mecha;

    public static void send(CommandSender sender, String message, String prefix) {
        sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', prefix + message));
    }
}```

[tardy delta]

thats literally my util class from a year ago

[jagged quail]

all of my commands call to that Msg class

🗿

[urban kernel]

nice

(?)

[tardy delta]

i've come to the point that im not storing a single string that will be outputted in the game

except for error messages

[jagged quail]

9 versions behind

🗿

[urban kernel]

imagine sender.send

[crisp steeple]

fun String.clr(): String = this.replace("&", "\u00a7")

[thorny dawn]

uh

since when do custom mob names break their behavior?

i see skeletons fighting each other when changing their names

[urban kernel]

when console runs the command, what would sender.getName() return

[jagged quail]

i'll send screen recording using it in a min

[ivory sleet]

CONSOLE @urban kernel

[jagged quail]

lemme spin up a test server

[ivory sleet]

and if its remote, then Rcon

[urban kernel]

ty

[tardy delta]

how would i go about getting data from multiple database tables in one method?

creating multiple statement and combing the data?

or is there something better

cant believe i still havent implemented this

[urban kernel]

can u test my piece of shit on it

[jagged quail]

ok test server is up

[urban kernel]

can u test my shit

i mean plugin

[jagged quail]

@opal juniper yes, the fly command works.

[thorny dawn]

how to check if cause of entitydamageevent is player?

[humble tulip]

if the damaged enetity is a player @thorny dawn ?

[thorny dawn]

im basically trying to disable pvp between players (allow for mobs)

im aware of how to get the entity type but event.cause doesnt have a type property

[humble tulip]

oh

well listen to entitydamagebyentityevent

check if the entity and damager are both players

[thorny dawn]

👍

[humble tulip]

if they are then cancel

[thorny dawn]

ty

[compact haven]

Look up a JOIN statement sql

[woeful moon]

Is there any way to get a player's IP from just the Player object, not the preloginevent?

[tender shard]

no

unless you're going for NMS

[woeful moon]

Okay

[crisp steeple]

map the ip to the uuid during the preloginevent

[minor otter]

why does negative mining fatigue no longer work?

[chrome beacon]

Someone fixed it I guess

[quaint mantle]

someone know how to set a custom speed with the command? i do this but i know that this code doesnt working

[minor otter]

I really hope not because that's gonna suck

[chrome beacon]

Why are you using a loop

[crisp steeple]

i dont see what the point of repeating the setWalkSpeed multiple times is

[native nexus]

“Value”

[crisp steeple]

huh

[quaint mantle]

i dont now i ty do something but I have no idea how to do it

[native nexus]

It’s between -1 and 1

[crisp steeple]

can you just make the player walk backwards then lol?

[native nexus]

Yes pretty sure

[crisp steeple]

thats funny

[native nexus]

Never tried it cause I am not a goober

But yes yes

[modest shard]

is there any way where you can get the enchants of an item in a crafting recipe

nobody knows ig

[shadow gazelle]

Would making a resourcepack that includes the translation for my custom enchantment? I registered it like a Minecraft enchantment.

[shadow gazelle]

wdym?

[odd adder]

someone know how to get nbt from a CraftEntity?

[shadow gazelle]

Like an ExactChoice?

[modest shard]

like if i wanted to make a plugin to upgrade sharpness level

from 5 to 6, but i want to keep the enchants from the old sword, and just upgrade to sharp 6 if the sword being upgraded already has sharp 5

[chrome beacon]

One of the save methods

[shadow gazelle]

The only way you could do that is watch the prepare crafting event and make sure the output has the same enchantments as the input

[odd adder]

oh thank , i found it!

[shadow gazelle]

Would probably make more sense to do with an anvil

[modest shard]

public void InventoryClick(PrepareItemCraftEvent e)?

[shadow gazelle]

yeah

[modest shard]

im using items in the recipe tho

not ench books

[shadow gazelle]

:what:

[tall dragon]

can any1 suggest me the best way to store block data?, so i mean the block type and for example if its a directional the direction. and have this be serializable, deserializable?

will i need to write custom serialization for each block state?, so bassically every TileEntity?

[shadow gazelle]

So have the player make a "custom item" with the other ingredients and combine it in an avnil

[modest shard]

sure

upgrade stone

also i never figured out how to make crafting recipes require stacked items

[shadow gazelle]

you can't

[modest shard]

💀

hypixel can

but their crafting table is different

[shadow gazelle]

Hypixel doesn't use vanilla crafting, they have their own system

[midnight shore]

Does setresult in craft inventory uses some sort of queue? Because when I set it it seems that it actually adds to a queue because if the slot is already filled with some items I need to remove them and then I see the new item

[shadow gazelle]

Well, okay, you can't in the recipe

but you could make sure the slot with that item has the amount you want and set the output as nothing until it has the amount you want

[acoustic pendant]

@ivory sleet sorry, i don't really know about arrays could you assist me a little bit?

[chrome beacon]

You can just save the TileEntity to nbt with NMS or use BlockStateMeta and BlockDataMeta

[chrome beacon]

?ask

[undone axle]

If you have a question, please just ask it. Don't look for staff or topic experts. Don't ask to ask or ask if people are awake or available. Just ask the question to the channel straight out, and wait patiently for a reply. Make sure you use the right channel regarding the topic of your question. Create a thread in case the channel is already in use!

[shadow gazelle]

For the things I don't think that are expensive enough, I just make compressed items/blocks

[acoustic pendant]

ehm sure

okay, so here i want to check if the array is null and if it is add the name of a player

but i don't know how to continue...

[humble tulip]

use a fori loop

not a for loop

[acoustic pendant]

fori?

for each u mean

[modest shard]

i never dealt with crafting plugins before

how would u get certain slots

[humble tulip]

for (int i = 0; i < members.size; i++)

[acoustic pendant]

oh

[modest shard]

his for loop is fine

just that u can do smth like

[humble tulip]

u cant use a for each loop for what he wants to do

[shadow gazelle]

Why not?

Still works with primitives because it's still in an array

[modest shard]

what is he adding the name to anyways

[humble tulip]

cuz how would you know the index of the player u wanna add?

[modest shard]

why would u need the index

[acoustic pendant]

to an array

[modest shard]

all you need is the streing

string

u can just addd the names directly

[acoustic pendant]

maybe I can add them on a hashmap and then save the names in the file?

[shadow gazelle]

@acoustic pendant what are you trying to do?

[acoustic pendant]

uhm

a team system

[modest shard]

save the names to smth

[humble tulip]

how?

how would u do members[index] = name?

[acoustic pendant]

but that when the server closes it doesn't get removed

[shadow gazelle]

You should be able to use first, or just specify the exact slot if you know the recipe never changed orientation

@acoustic pendant how are they stored in the first place?

[humble tulip]

storage-slots:
  - '2:2'
  - '2:3'
  - '2:4'
  - '2:5'
  - '2:6'
  - '2:7'
  - '2:8'
  - '3:2'
  - '3:3'
  - '3:4'
  - '3:5'
  - '3:6'
  - '3:7'
  - '3:8'
  - '4:2'
  - '4:3'
  - '4:4'
  - '4:5'
  - '4:6'
  - '4:7'
  - '4:8'
  - '5:2'
  - '5:3'
  - '5:4'
  - '5:5'
  - '5:6'
  - '5:7'
  - '5:8'

does this look friendly to modify?

first num is row, second is slot

[acoustic pendant]

files

[shadow gazelle]

https://tenor.com/view/reload-cat-loading-buffering-kitty-gif-17184357

[acoustic pendant]

basically

[shadow gazelle]

Okay, can you backup and explain what it's doing and how?

It's teams for skyblock islands, I assume

[acoustic pendant]

yea

[shadow gazelle]

Whatever minion sent is confusing me

[mystic vale]

How can I define the main class with maven?

[modest shard]

u can save the name

[shadow gazelle]

you don't need to?

[modest shard]

like copy the name onto a string

and save it onto the config file

[shadow gazelle]

What are you talking about?

[modest shard]

cuz there aint no way ur saving the indices onto the config file

[humble tulip]

he wants to check if an item in the array is null, and set it if it is, that's what i understood

[modest shard]

i think adri wanted to store names right?

[acoustic pendant]

Yea, but i think i found other way

[shadow gazelle]

Maven doesn't care what your main class is, it just compiles the jar and manages dependencies

[modest shard]

add it to what

he never told us what he is adding the name to

[mystic vale]

How can I start a .jar file defining the main class in maven

[shadow gazelle]

what

[humble tulip]

@mystic vale i gotchu

one sec

[modest shard]

i never used maven 🧓

[humble tulip]

you mean a class with public static void main?

[shadow gazelle]

why tf are you asking about that here, if that's your question

[humble tulip]

this is #help-development

[mystic vale]

yes

[shadow gazelle]

With Spigot plugins

not general java

[humble tulip]

nope

[shadow gazelle]

yes?

And Bungeecord

[humble tulip]

            <plugin>

            </plugin>

@mystic vale

[shadow gazelle]

@mystic vale are you trying to make a plugin or what?

[modest shard]

imagine using maven 🤢

[shadow gazelle]

Imagine using Gr*dle

[modest shard]

even tho maven is techcnially better

[humble tulip]

lmao maven is good what are you on about

[modest shard]

i dont

[shadow gazelle]

Gradle is ass, or at least ForgeGradle is

[modest shard]

i dont use gradle

[shadow gazelle]

good

you're saving yourself from pain

[acoustic pendant]

i think like this would work?

i'll try

[modest shard]

from a guy on the internet

[acoustic pendant]

uhm, but now that i think, how can i do a limit here, lemme think

[shadow gazelle]

unbased

[modest shard]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[shadow gazelle]

Gradle is a pain in the ass

[acoustic pendant]

can i maybe use an array here with the limit of players?

[modest shard]

or just in the add command check if the list is already 3

or wtv limit u want

[shadow gazelle]

@acoustic pendant can you please explain what your plugin is actually doing for loading and saving these values?

[modest shard]

some skyblock plugin

[shadow gazelle]

that doesn't help

[modest shard]

where he wants to have a group limit or smth

team limit

co-op limit

wtv

but idk what else he is trying to do

[shadow gazelle]

so don't do that when you save it?

[modest shard]

idk what he is trying to do either exactly

[acoustic pendant]

yea, i file it in a file

here

[modest shard]

hypixel skyblock ah and bz both down 😭

[shadow gazelle]

you already said that

that doesn't tell anyone anything new

[acoustic pendant]

but "name: FragsVoid"

just stores 1

[modest shard]

what r u trying to do exactly

[acoustic pendant]

cant really work with that

make a team system

[shadow gazelle]

exactly

Just explain what your code is doing up to this point

[acoustic pendant]

okay

so

the relevant thing, is creating the island

I have done that

and now instead of name: ... just storing 1 string

[shadow gazelle]

so get the player's name and store that when you save it?

[acoustic pendant]

i would like it to store for example 5 and be able to get that

[acoustic pendant]

Ik how to do that i think

[shadow gazelle]

Whatever you're doing makes no sense somewhere

[acoustic pendant]

hmm

why?

[shadow gazelle]

why are you saving invited players under the sender's UUID?

[acoustic pendant]

the sender's UUID in the "name" of each island

[shadow gazelle]

what

"is" or "in?"

[acoustic pendant]

is

[shadow gazelle]

why

would you store it like that

[shadow gazelle]

Make a UUID for new islands and save everything under that

[acoustic pendant]

different island

well

i could do that as well

but nothing changes

[shadow gazelle]

Your code makes no sense

[acoustic pendant]

it works

[shadow gazelle]

"it works" doesn't mean it's good

what is setHasIsland doing?

[acoustic pendant]

public void setHasIsland(Player player, boolean create) {
getCustomFile().set("hasIsland." + player.getName(), create);
save();
}

[shadow gazelle]

Storing values like that by a player's name is a terrible idea

[acoustic pendant]

uhm, why? I think is great

[eternal night]

I'll change my minecraft name real quick

🙏

[acoustic pendant]

oh

that makes sense

uuid better?

[shadow gazelle]

yes

[acoustic pendant]

okay, i'll change that

done 😄

[shadow gazelle]

Are you saving island members in the island or in a separate entry?

[acoustic pendant]

I will create a section inside the island section wich stores the team except the leader

is that a great idea?

[brittle lily]

Hey Guys How can I add some property on Custom Food. For Example I'm making custom golden apple and How can run codes when player eat it.

[shadow gazelle]

You could do something like

islandUUID:
   bank: integer
   name: ""
   owner:
      uuid: uuid
      lastName: "" #if you want to pull it for some reason
   members:
     - memberUUID
     - memberUUID1

players:
   playerUUID:
      information:
   playerUUID1:
      informations:

[acoustic pendant]

yea

I know how to do all except the members thing

how are lists in configs done?

[shadow gazelle]

you should be able to just input a list

getList("path") is a thing

[acoustic pendant]

oh

so store it on a list and for example when the player leaves store it in the file?

[shadow gazelle]

You could do that, or update the stored list when a new member is added or a member is removed

[acoustic pendant]

but the server could be stopped before a new member is added

[shadow gazelle]

just update it every time someone makes island modifications?

[fierce salmon]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[acoustic pendant]

hmm

yea

okay so

[fierce salmon]

https://paste.md-5.net/ukubolahug.java im getting this error but literally everything is working properly so what should i do? Should I just ignore it?

[eternal oxide]

never ignore errors

Cannot invoke "org.bukkit.inventory.Inventory.getTitle()" because the return value of "org.bukkit.event.inventory.InventoryClickEvent.getClickedInventory()" is null

[acoustic pendant]

are sections like this?

[eternal oxide]

test the value of getClickedInventory() and return if it is null

[shadow gazelle]

yes

[acoustic pendant]

k ty

[shadow gazelle]

you should probably try to use shorter names

yaml already isn't the fastest and that's going to get slow if it gets big

[acoustic pendant]

oh

that makes sense

thanks!

[shadow gazelle]

you should also probably use different yaml files for storing different things

one for the actual config, one for players, and one for islands

just make a method to return the config section for them

[acoustic pendant]

this is the IslandManager file so i was doing all related to island there

[shadow gazelle]

Okay

[acoustic pendant]

Btw, what's the method to create a list in a file?

[frail sluice]

can I listen to block tick, eg. call a method for each hopper when it ticks?
(without saving a list of blocks or iterating over all the blocks)

[ornate patio]

i can give a horse admin permissions 🤔

[shadow gazelle]

You can just make an empty path and set it to a list

[acoustic pendant]

okay, thanks!

[shadow gazelle]

config().set("path", yourList);

[crude cobalt]

Does anyone have a json file to create a custom GUI for a double chest?

[tranquil viper]

https://gyazo.com/ed0f407e6914e4da18c8e4e18fc748f6

Is it possible to make this explosion do no damage within the built in method, or do I need to make an event listener to handle it?

[iron glade]

Yup it's possible

[tranquil viper]

So what do I do within the method to make it do no damage?

[iron glade]

Which "method"?

[tranquil viper]

createExplosion(double x, double y, double z, float power, boolean setFire, boolean breakBlocks)

[iron glade]

well

guess what you have to do

[fossil lily]

Is there a way that my program can log whenever a class is used? Im trying to find a problem in like 100 files.

[clever musk]

does Bukkit.getPlayer(args[1]) return valid if arg[1] is a uuid in string form?

[eternal oxide]

no

[tranquil viper]

Use UUID.fromString()

[clever musk]

RIP

[tranquil viper]

getPlayer(UUID.fromString(args[1])

[clever musk]

Is there a method to return true if a string can be a valid UUID?

[eternal oxide]

Just test the length. If the string is 36 use a UUID. if less use the string

[clever musk]

Ok

[tranquil viper]

You can just run a null check on that method

Or surround with a try catch (not my first choice)

[tranquil viper]

Don't think so, that's not really a spigot question though. If you're trying to find a problem in 100 files then you should be able to use some deductive reasoning to find out which file(s) could be causing the problem

[eternal oxide]

or describe the issue so we can better advise

[tranquil viper]

^

Anyone got any hex color parsing methods

So I can just do &#fe28sjL

or something like that

[limber owl]

hello, does anyone know how to add more caves into 1.8 in worldcreator?

[brittle lily]

Hey Guys! How Can I remove death/join/achievement message from chat

[limber owl]

get the even and cancel it

[humble tulip]

dont cancel

just set the message to ""

or null

[brittle lily]

Okay! thanks

[humble tulip]

i'm not sure if u can set it to null

[grim ice]

that isnt really real tho?

[tardy delta]

set it to null or it will send an empty message

[grim ice]

since a string can be 36 letters and still not a uuid

[tranquil viper]

I believe they're all in the spigot.yml or gamerules, don't try to cancel an event

For example if you cancel the death event the player simply won't die

[eternal oxide]

correct, you still have to error check the UUID creation, but thats the jist

[tranquil viper]

Or if you cancel the join event, the player cannot join

[grim ice]

i think you can use this regex:
^[0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}$

[limber owl]

oh no

regex

[ornate heart]

Is there any way with the spigot api to create a custom recipe that involves using a certain amount of ingredients to craft a certain item. I heard that the API only checks for material and not quantity. Is this true?

[eternal oxide]

Not sure performing the regex pattern match would be any quicker than UUID.fromString in a try/catch

[limber owl]

anyone?

[tranquil viper]

Probably true because there is nothing that takes more than 1 item to craft

Custom crafting gui :p

[ornate heart]

oh that's so true I didn't even think about that

time to make an API

[tranquil viper]

have fun

[ornate heart]

preciate it. I did in a previous plugin I just gotta abstract it to something people can actually use

[round elbow]

how can i effectively use permissions in 1.8.8 spigot plugin?

permissions:
  reports.*:
    description: grants every permission
    children:
      reports.mod:
        description: allows acceptance/deniable of reports
      reports.report:
        description: allows reports

im trying to do something like this in plugin.yml
but idk how to use it properly with commands
note: im using luckperms

[frail sluice]

is there a block tick event, that gets called for each tile entity, like a hopper, each tick?

[quaint mantle]

@EventHandler
    public static void onAttack(EntityDamageByEntityEvent edmg){
        Player sender = (Player) edmg.getDamager();
        sender.sendMessage(String.valueOf(edmg.getEntity()));```
How can i apply an effect (like poison) on the entity i damaged?

[eternal oxide]

That is correct to register the permissions so they are seen by Bukkit. to assign to commands just add a permission line under teh command entry

[ornate patio]

will getTicksLived still count up if the entity is agelocked?

[eternal oxide]

no

[round elbow]

oh

thats it?

just add the check as first line of the command

[frail sluice]

is there any alternative, that doesn't require saving a list of the blocks or iterating over all the loaded blocks?

[round elbow]

and luckperms does the rest?

[eternal oxide]

no

You add them into the plugin.yml under each command

[limber owl]

hello, does anyone know how to add more caves into 1.8 in worldcreator?

[round elbow]

oh

well im registering commands

a little

differently

[eternal oxide]

if they are assigned to a command that command executor will not fire if the player doesn't have the permission

[limber owl]

how? you need to add the commands into plugin.yml file

[quaint mantle]

@EventHandler
    public static void onAttack(EntityDamageByEntityEvent edmg){
        Player sender = (Player) edmg.getDamager();
        sender.sendMessage(String.valueOf(edmg.getEntity()));```
How can i apply an effect (like poison) on the entity i damaged?

[eternal oxide]

The command map also has permissions

[round elbow]

public abstract class AbstractCommand extends Command implements PluginIdentifiableCommand {

    private final CommandParams params;
    private final CommandPermissions permissions;


    protected AbstractCommand() {
        super("");
        this.params = getClass().getAnnotation(CommandParams.class);
        this.permissions = getClass().getAnnotation(CommandPermissions.class);

        setName(params.name());
        setDescription(params.description());
        setPermission(permissions.permission());
        setUsage(params.usage().replace("<command>", this.params.name()));
        if (params.aliases().split(",").length > 0) {
            setAliases(Arrays.asList(params.aliases().split(",")));
        }
    }

@CommandParams(name = "report", description = "Allows player reports")
@CommandPermissions(source = CommandSource.IN_GAME, permission = "reports.report")
public class ReportCommand extends AbstractCommand {

heres an example
@eternal oxide

[thorny dawn]

#addPotionEffect()

[round elbow]

registering them through reflection

checking which classes implement AbstractCommand

[eternal oxide]

it looks fine

[quaint mantle]

well i can see how to do it on a player but not sure how on the entity that i just damaged (like a zombie)

[thorny dawn]

doesnt event.getEntity() have an addPotionEffect() property?

[quaint mantle]

nope thats what ive been looking thru

addPassenger
addScoreboard mainly

[tardy delta]

why would you extend Command?

[quaint mantle]

no potion effect, which is odd since the docs do say it can be applied on that entity so

[thorny dawn]

its literally there lmao

ignore the weird syntax im using kotlin

[quaint mantle]

am i stupid?

[round elbow]

im creating my custom implementation of a command
so in the future its easier to register them and work with commands

[quaint mantle]

its not there for me

[thorny dawn]

https://tenor.com/view/gimme-code-gimme-code-cat-tapping-gif-15479445

[quaint mantle]

 @EventHandler
    public static void onAttack(EntityDamageByEntityEvent edmg){
        Player sender = (Player) edmg.getDamager();
        sender.sendMessage(String.valueOf(edmg.getEntityType()));```

[thorny dawn]

edmg.getEntity() doesnt do anything?

[quaint mantle]

wdym?

[thorny dawn]

edmg.getEntity().addPotionEffect()

[quaint mantle]

gaddam i cant send screenshots

nope that wont work for me

[thorny dawn]

have u imported the spigot library correctly

[round elbow]

hmm well im clueless rn

[thorny dawn]

what spigot version are u at?

[limber owl]

please

[quaint mantle]

how can I check? i downloaded the most recent version

[worldly ingot]

EntityDamageByEntityEvent#getEntity() returns an Entity, for which addPotionEffect() does not exist

That's part of LivingEntity

[thorny dawn]

no?

[quaint mantle]

LivingEntity damaged = (LivingEntity) edmg.getEntity();
        damaged.addPotionEffect()```
this works fine for me

[thorny dawn]

alright

maybe kotlin has some auto casting shit and it showed up for me

[quaint mantle]

thatd make sense

[thorny dawn]

yea

[quaint mantle]

is kotlin worth learning over java?

[thorny dawn]

it has some neat features that come out of the box and it looks a bit cleaner

ill show you

[limber owl]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[limber owl]

@thorny dawn

[thorny dawn]

you manage to get around from a lot of boilerplate java may create and its cool

[thorny dawn]

im not dealing with an issue he asked a question

[quaint mantle]

ooh that does look nice

[limber owl]

still, it's better to use paste than uploading a picture

[quaint mantle]

@EventHandler
    public static void onAttack(EntityDamageByEntityEvent edmg){
        Player sender = (Player) edmg.getDamager();
        sender.sendMessage(String.valueOf(edmg.getEntityType()));
        LivingEntity damaged = (LivingEntity) edmg.getEntity();
        damaged.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.POISON, 10, 2));
    }```
this is my entire event, it doesnt add the potion effect on the ZOMBIE i just hit which is weird since it should

[thorny dawn]

the point is to get an overall image of how the syntax looks not to copy code

[quaint mantle]

or not

im stupid, zombies cant get poisoned

[thorny dawn]

is the event registered?

[tardy delta]

people like unchecked casts

[quaint mantle]

yep, it is, it sends the entitytype in chat

[limber owl]

you know he can just use another ide and it will look otherwise, the code will be the same in paste

[quaint mantle]

hmm nope, still wont poison a sheep

[tranquil viper]

java.lang.ClassCastException: class org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_18_R2.block.CraftBlock cannot be cast to class org.bukkit.block.Chest

player.getWorld().getBlockAt(airdropLoc).setType(Material.CHEST);
airdropLoc.getBlock().setMetadata("airdrop", new FixedMetadataValue(plugin, airdropLoc.getBlock()));
fillChest((Chest) airdropLoc.getBlock());
particilizeAirdrop(airdropLoc);

Why can't I cast the airdropLoc.getBlock() to a Chest, even though I set it to a chest one line earlier

[thorny dawn]

i think u have to cast the block itself, since setting the block type to chest wont do anything

[tranquil viper]

It changes though

and I am changing the block

[minor otter]

is it possible to change parts of a lang file through plugin? like names of certain blocks and whatnot

[tranquil viper]

Actually I had to check if it was a chest even though I knew it was a chest

[calm pilot]

no i think you have to do it through a resource pack. but if you really want to then you can probably change a pack in code.

[limber owl]

at least how to generate more ores please

[tranquil viper]

Sick

[minor otter]

rip, im just trying to add hex code colors to a block name

[tranquil viper]

Learn about chunk generation

[calm pilot]

i think thats possible you just have to use grave instead of the and synbol

[tardy delta]

the blockstate can be a chest

[river oracle]

you can without a texture pack, What version?

[tardy delta]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/block/Chest.html

[minor otter]

1.18

[limber owl]

I'm not planning on generating new worlds from scratch, I just want to pump up the volume of ores in a world

[river oracle]

I'd suggest checking out Iridium Chat Color API they have a pretty good thing going there. That way you don't have to spend any time setting it up yourself

[tranquil viper]

You can use something similar to how world edit would do it or learn about chunk generation and apply it to new chunks

[quaint mantle]

yall see any issues here? Poison does apply to a sheep but when hitting it, it just doesnt apply it

[minor otter]

do you have an example?

[river oracle]

https://github.com/Iridium-Development/IridiumColorAPI

I use this personally I think its a good option

[limber owl]

what way does the wolrd edit do it? any link for gitthub on 18.?

[thorny dawn]

you can change world type to AMPLIFIED but i DO NOT RECOMMEND IT as it will eat up all of your servers performance and get a time out error if you dont have the specs to support it

[calm pilot]

Is there a way to get the NBT data of an item in like a HashMap format? I'm making custom models for my plugin and i need the CustomModelData nbt tag of a Firework Star from an item.

[limber owl]

again, I just want to have more ores in the world, preferably more caves but not change the world from default

[tranquil viper]

Just replace a certain amount of stone with ores

Make a method to determine what blocks should go where

[limber owl]

oh god, another hour or so will go into this, thanks though

[kindred valley]

how can i clear the console in java

[calm pilot]

in java

not spigot api

anyone got a reason as to why this wont apply poison on a mob i hit?

[calm pilot]

oh mb

Is there a way to get the NBT data of an item in like a HashMap format? I'm making custom models for my plugin and i need the CustomModelData nbt tag of a Firework Star from an item.

[tardy delta]

windows?

[echo basalt]

maybe because it's static

[kindred valley]

java console

[echo basalt]

and it concerns me as to why you'd think to make a static void, specially for an event

also 10 ticks of poison is like 0.5s which won't be notable

[tranquil viper]

How do I spawn a firework particle?

[sacred basin]

Hello, can anyone suggest healing sound?

[tranquil viper]

arrow ding

Thank you

[tardy delta]

are you using windows as your operating system?

[jade grove]

hey im making a pickaxe plugin where if you mine a certain block, it gets added to a map. and im trying to show the amount of blocks broken on the lore, however the lore doesnt get displayed nor do you get a message saying you mined a block on event

@EventHandler
    public void onMine(BlockBreakEvent event) {
        Player player = event.getPlayer();
        Pickaxe pickaxe = Pickaxes.UUID_PICKAXE_MAP.get(player.getUniqueId());
        if (player.getInventory().getItemInHand().getItemMeta().getDisplayName().equals(("&6&lPickaxe"))) {
            final Material type = event.getBlock().getType();
            if(pickaxe.getOreMap().containsKey(type)) {
                pickaxe.getOreMap().put(type, pickaxe.getOreMap().get(type) + 1);
                player.sendMessage("You mined " + pickaxe.getOreMap().get(type) + " " + type.name());
            }
        }
    }```

[calm pilot]

did you register the event?

[jade grove]

yeah

private final Map<Material, Integer> oreMap = new HashMap<Material, Integer>() {{
        put(Material.DIAMOND_ORE, 0);
        put(Material.GOLD_ORE, 0);
        put(Material.IRON_ORE, 0);
    }};

    private final ItemStack pickaxe = new ItemBuilder(Material.DIAMOND_PICKAXE)
            .displayname("&6&lPickaxe")
            .build();

    public void giveItem(Player player) {
        this.update(player, 1);
    }

    public void update(Player player, int slot) {
        ItemMeta itemMeta = pickaxe.getItemMeta();

        itemMeta.setLore(Arrays.asList(
                Colorizer.colorize("&bDiamonds: " + oreMap.get(Material.DIAMOND_ORE)),
                Colorizer.colorize("&eGold Ingots: " + oreMap.get(Material.GOLD_INGOT)),
                Colorizer.colorize("&7Iron Ingots: " + oreMap.get(Material.IRON_INGOT))
        ));

        pickaxe.setItemMeta(itemMeta);

        player.getInventory().setItem(slot, pickaxe);
    }```

[tranquil viper]

I'm doing chest.getInventory().setContents(rewardContents); but it just ends up putting the items on the ground, any thoughts?

[tranquil viper]

Use pdc to check if it's a pic or not

[jade grove]

pdc?

[tranquil viper]

PersistentDataContainer

[calm pilot]

Get the NBT of an ItemStack.

[jade grove]

cant i just do java if (player.getInventory().getItemInHand().equals(pickaxe.getPickaxe())) {

[tranquil viper]

You can test it but the safest way to go would be to use pdcs.

I use it so often now that I know how to use it

It's very helpful

[jade grove]

ive never heard of this but ill see if this would change anything

[tender shard]

no

the pickaxe can be damaged

then it doesnt equals amymore

[jade grove]

would isSimilar work?

[tender shard]

no

[jade grove]

ig ill use pdcs then

[tender shard]

yes thar's the way to go 🙂

[jade grove]

hold up

its a feature for newer versions right?

[eternal night]

pdc ?

[tender shard]

no

[eternal night]

pdc is 1.14

[jade grove]

oh

makes sense

im using 1.8

lol

[tender shard]

it exists since 1.14 so its quite old

[eternal night]

not really a newer version yea

[jade grove]

newer than 1.8

[tender shard]

even my grandpa is younger than 1.8

no idea why you're using this almot 10 years old version

[jade grove]

there are still large communities based in older versions yk

[tender shard]

lol bullshit

[jade grove]

no

lol

want proof?

[tender shard]

everyone who's not totally stupid keeps up to date

[tender shard]

sure, bring it on

[eternal oxide]

Depends what you think "big" is

[jade grove]

some people like the old pvp style more

[tender shard]

although no idea if I can load the link you*re going to send, I'm still using Windows XP

sorry but there's still big communities using WIndwos XP

[jade grove]

a large portion of the factions community play 1.8, along with hcf and practice playing even older versions in 1.7

[tender shard]

bullshit

also wtf is hcf

[jade grove]

search up ricefarmer11 on youtube

[tender shard]

or you search "how to update minecraft" on youtube

yeah anyway, have fun in using 1.8

[jade grove]

some people just dont like the new style of pvp

[tender shard]

yeah idk some people also think that hitler is still alive and lives in argentina

[jade grove]

that comparison is completely unrelated to the topic at hand lol

[tender shard]

well both are based off people who cannot simply stay up to date

[jade grove]

and you being semi hostile doesnt help the point you're making

[tender shard]

yeah my bad sorry

I'm actually being a bit hostile

[eternal oxide]

I hate teh new combat, but I still use 1.18.2

[tender shard]

because I cannot stand persons using 8 year old MC versions

and still expect help here

it's weird

update to the latest version and you'll get proper information here

[subtle folio]

gamers, how do I also change the player's name color and not just its prefix with scoreboard teams?

[jade grove]

👍

[tender shard]

you can only use NBT tags if you keep staying on 1.8

[jade grove]

you couldve just said that then

instead of rambling on

[tender shard]

NBT isnt part of the API though and its version dependant

[tender shard]

yeah sorry but what did you expect

if ask questions for a 10 year old version, of course people will tell you to update

[limber owl]

wait, so when you have pvp server based on 1.8 pvp version you should update, what's the logic??

[vocal cloud]

Yes you should.

[limber owl]

🤡

[vocal cloud]

You can use words instead of emojis if you're mentally capable of such

[limber owl]

you say that every server that makes 1.8 pvp should update to newest version so that they can make the pvp again, but on the newest versions that isn't possible

[eternal oxide]

In this channel we give support on the current (recent) version. It's up to each individual if they choose to give advice on older versions. Pretty much no one gives support on 1.8 anymore.

[vocal cloud]

Except it is possible? Maybe not the block mechanic but if servers like Hypixel can do it then I'm sure any server can lol

[limber owl]

hypixel is on 1.8??? the use viaversion for players

[humble tulip]

That's what i thought

[limber owl]

they probably have their own viaversions but the point stands

[vocal cloud]

Yeah but viaversion does what exactly? Translates versions backwards. If you can translate something backwards then it's possible to do it on the latest version

[humble tulip]

Also allows newer vesions to join

[limber owl]

what? viaversions backwards? 1st thats entirely own plugin 2nd it only translates the blocks intop other versions, the mechanics stands

you may not see the cooldown in 1.8 but your hits are lower

[vocal cloud]

Except you can still do 1.8 pvp on 1.18. People just try to justify their use of an archaic version

[limber owl]

you're not making sense

[limber owl]

yes, because of viaversion, the server is on 1.8 and viaversions allows players to join and use of 1.8 mechanics

[vocal cloud]

So if a 1.18 client can use 1.8 mechanics you realize that means you can do 1.8 mechanics in 1.18 right?

Like you understand how programming works right?

[limber owl]

you can go backwards with functions but not forward, like you understand how programming works, right?

[crisp steeple]

i mean its possible to have a 1.18 server with 1.8 pvp mechanics

[vocal cloud]

You are actually pretty dumb. If a client can do something then what reason is there for the server to not also be able to do that thing?

[limber owl]

I know there are some plugins that try to allow it but the hit reg and cooldown still can't process that like fast and there are bhgs

[vocal cloud]

[limber owl]

you're just showing how dumb you are, the things from 1.8 are in 1.18 but things from 1.18 are NOT in 1.8

[chrome beacon]

Who cares if they aren't there. You just don't send that to the client

[vocal cloud]

Yes but to make 1.18 work with 1.8 1.18 must be able to do the things you want from 1.8

[limber owl]

only if you change minecraft client

[vocal cloud]

What?

[limber owl]

the client have the cooldown, not the server

[river oracle]

:L

[vocal cloud]

Yet viaversion works?

[limber owl]

so you can't have 1.18 pvp server with 1.8 mechanics as the player have cooldown for attacking

[river oracle]

but you can 👀

[chrome beacon]

You can disable the cooldown

[humble tulip]

U can disable cooldown lol

[river oracle]

I swear this channel is so entertaining sometimes

[tender shard]

I would have also left

[tardy delta]

grow up and stop pvping on 1.8 lol 😂

[crisp steeple]

you can have 1.8 pvp on 1.18, and 1.18 pvp on 1.8. not really sure why this is being even argued since its just a fact

[ivory sleet]

invalid

you can set atk cooldown on items

which makes it seemingly 1.8

[tender shard]

some people just love to live in the past

[river oracle]

I don't think he is ever coming back

[tender shard]

brb gotta update my windows vista

oh NVM I CAN'T BECAUSE VISTA IS 10 YEARS OLD

[limber owl]

yes, because from 1.8 you don't have the cooldown, but in 1.18 you have, if server is 1.8 and client is 1.18 (using viaversions) have the cooldown and player requests the packet with it and recieves null it doesn't instantiate the variable, but if you have 1.18 and 1.18 it recieves the default from server, then asks plugin and see that it's 0 but because of latency it takes time, if you have 1.18 and 1.8 it never requests for that packet

[limber owl]

but the latency :/

[crisp steeple]

are you just saying random words now

[river oracle]

buzzwords are fun to use

can you blame em

[chrome beacon]

What latency. It's client side

[crisp steeple]

hate it when i request a packet but its null and doesnt instantiate the variables

[limber owl]

I literally study it in school

[vocal cloud]

I just think it's a fundamental misunderstanding of a client-server relationship

[tender shard]

no support here for 10 year old MC versinos ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[limber owl]

the default is 0 and recieves null ´´ 0

[crisp steeple]

i have no clue what packets or variable instantiation or null values has to do with this

[limber owl]

what? you never been on a server and hit players and nothing happened?

[vocal cloud]

Yes because the internet cut out

[tender shard]

noone here uses 10 year old MC versions

[limber owl]

so you didn't receive the packet about hitting and other things, and nothing happened

[limber owl]

proven you wrong before you even said it

[ornate patio]

bump

[crisp steeple]

player swings sword at player -> adds cooldown -> remove cooldown

so complicated

[limber owl]

can't paste in images

[tender shard]

hm you're the only one who asked anything about 1.8

[tender shard]

get verified then

[limber owl]

no, I said that people still use 1.8

[river oracle]

those people are wack 😆

[tender shard]

yeah but those people are living in the past

[limber owl]

can't, mods are not responding and my account is tied to old discord

[tall dragon]

yea about 6.9 % of all servers are 1.8...

[crisp steeple]

how to simulate 1.8 pvp in 1.18:
remove cooldown when player hits someone

how to simulate 1.18 pvp in 1.8
add cooldown when player hits someone

[vocal cloud]

Why would you not receive the packet? Did the client not send it? There is no reason for you to not receive a packet like that.

[river oracle]

yea you also gotta tweak how health regen works because its different with the new combat, but still not too complex

[limber owl]

that would be still 69000 from 1mil

[tall dragon]

so a very, very small share

[river oracle]

yet its still 6.9% we can all do math here right?

[limber owl]

what??? you need internet connection and when you don't have it you don't recieve packets

[vocal cloud]

No really?

[crisp steeple]

where are you even getting this 1m number from lol

[limber owl]

from 54689 there are 3,773 1.8 servers

[minor otter]

ended up having to use texture pack, still came out well imo

[tender shard]

yeah those servers are for handicapped people

[vocal cloud]

Your entire argument is 1.8 pvp cannot be replicated when it already has and the plugin(s) that have done it have 10s of thousands of downloads

[eternal oxide]

Correct, a TINY amount.

[limber owl]

that's an example of how much can 6.9% be

[river oracle]

looks great 👍

[tall dragon]

where are you getting 54689 from??

[crisp steeple]

but 6.9% = 6.9%

[tender shard]

They're a redditor it makes sense

[tall dragon]

bruh

[tender shard]

hey

[tall dragon]

https://bstats.org/global/bukkit

[tender shard]

I'm a redditor too

[crisp steeple]

well a random reddit meme said it, so it must be true

[limber owl]

so there are even more

[tender shard]

Ihave more than 10k subscribers on reddit :< don't hate on redditors pls

[tall dragon]

bstats is much more accurate

not 100% but still

[crisp steeple]

lol

as time goes by less servers use 1.8

[humble tulip]

There are 1.7.10 servers wtf

[limber owl]

what? we just said that is 6.9%

[crisp steeple]

and where is that number coming from

[tall dragon]

i got 6.9% from bstats

its actually 7% now

[river oracle]

7% share using 1.8.8

[tender shard]

that's about 7% too much

[river oracle]

11,437 in the small minority vastly

[vocal cloud]

And the best part is 90% of them or more allow 1.18 users to play

[limber owl]

and now count avarage of 60 players per one of those servers

[quaint mantle]

How to create a NPC via ProtocolLib?

[tender shard]

also probably 90% of those servers have exactly 0 players online right now

[vocal cloud]

The average players on a server is close to 1.

[limber owl]

did you ever hear of hypixel?

[crisp steeple]

prime example of sample bias

[vocal cloud]

I said average you average redditor lol

[tender shard]

oh you mean this shitty server where you get spam messages 3 seconds after you joined?

[eternal oxide]

Do you understand what an average is?

[tall dragon]

if you devide the current playing players by the amount of servers you get 0.8

hence there are a ton of servers with none online

[limber owl]

do you understand that many servers can have about 5 players and hypixel carries it?

[crisp steeple]

also the reason hypixel is such a buggy spaghetti coded mess is probably because its in 1.8

[eternal oxide]

Ok, I see you don;t understand math

[limber owl]

https://hypixel.net/threads/i-wonder-how-many-of-the-players-use-1-8.3007744/

[tender shard]

you will not get any help here for your 1.8 questions nonetheless

people here don't like living in the past too long

[crisp steeple]

50% of players on a 1.8 server use 1.8. how shocking

[ornate patio]

I'm trying to "copy" information from one horse to another like so:

horse.setJumpStrength(normalHorse.getJumpStrength());
horse.setAge(normalHorse.getAge());
horse.setEatingHaystack(normalHorse.isEatingHaystack());
horse.setStyle(normalHorse.getStyle());
horse.setColor(normalHorse.getColor());
...

what is "memory" of an entity, and how would I copy it over to horse from normalHorse?

[limber owl]

i asked none 1.8 questions

[eternal oxide]

Arguing over. questions are asked

[limber owl]

you know it's 1.8 to 1.18??

[crisp steeple]

yes??

[river oracle]

thats ah

[crisp steeple]

what is your point here

[quaint mantle]

inv.addItem(item);

is there a way for me to choose which slot this item goes into?

[river oracle]

Inventory#setItem(int slot, ItemStack item)

[tall dragon]

#setItem()

[limber owl]

from 10 versions 50% of players still use 1.8

[quaint mantle]

oh lovely i forgot about that

[crisp steeple]

because its a 1.8 based server...

[limber owl]

https://hypixel.net/attachments/1617912073173-png.2474058/

[river oracle]

I usually play on the core version as its the least buggy always

no exceptions

[tender shard]

they have none

[ornate patio]

bump

[tender shard]

can you pls stop sending weird hypixel png files

[limber owl]

https://minecraft-statistic.net/en/global_statistic.html

[tender shard]

canyou pls stop sending ANY links

this channel is to ask questions about developing plugins

[tall dragon]

still is also not official.

[tender shard]

you are just spamming this channel

[limber owl]

can you just accept the fact that you're wrong?

[limber owl]

nothing is official

[river oracle]

buh buh we aren't

[tender shard]

that links clearly shows that almost noone uses 1.8

[vocal cloud]

You probably have to add your server to that list so it's probably not even complete

[tender shard]

noone uses 1.8, confirmed

[crisp steeple]

💀

[ornate patio]

why is politics hapenning in here lmfao

[limber owl]

1st there are only server most servers are 1791

[ornate patio]

im tryna get some spigot help

[tender shard]

someone here joined and thinks 1.8 is awesome and refuses to acknowledge that this version is 10 years old, unsupported, and that noone uses it

[tender shard]

?

[river oracle]

bstats has more servers

and reflects about the same distrobution

[crisp steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/yoda-gif-18173657

[eternal oxide]

A horse has no Memory. Its currently only Villagers

[tender shard]

just block this person already

[ornate patio]

only reason i use 1.8 is for pvp

[tender shard]

saves much time

[ornate patio]

but like i dont see the argument

[river oracle]

Only use 1.8 on hypixel because thats the core version

[vocal cloud]

1.18 has similar pvp if you want it to. Also 1.8 pvp sucks cause low skill.

[tender shard]

yeah lol

1.8 pvp is just "who clicks the fastest"

1.8 is pvp for noobs

[ornate patio]

i like 1.8 pvp but thats personal preference

[river oracle]

I hate that this is true

[humble tulip]

I use 1.8 to test plugins that don't need new api stuff cuz the serber loads so quick

[ornate patio]

really? what is RAM_COOLDOWN_TICKS and stuff for then

[vocal cloud]

Kids like it cause it has a low skillcap

[ornate patio]

eh theres a little bit more to it but yeah thats a big part

also about extending your reach by w-tapping or keeping ur sprint by strafing

[eternal oxide]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/memory/package-summary.html

all Villager

[river oracle]

I quit pvp as soon as people figured out drag clicking its become unfun as someone who plays casual to just have someone hitting over 60cps

[ornate patio]

most servers ban drag clickers

it is unfair

[humble tulip]

What is drag clicking?

[river oracle]

abusing a shitty mouse

[ornate patio]

yeah

[humble tulip]

I dont understand

[ornate patio]

you drag your finger downward across your mouse and it like "bumps" up and down 100 times per second

[humble tulip]

Lmfao

[ornate patio]

and you hit 100cps by just moving your finger down your mouse

[grim ice]

tbf i dont use 1.8 for pvp but i still like it, not like i code in it tho 🤷🏻

[ornate patio]

it only works on specific mice

[tender shard]

michael scott is the best macgyver ever, change my mind

[grim ice]

i code mods with forge 1.8.8 if that counts

[river oracle]

O.O

[ornate patio]

oh ok thanks

[humble tulip]

I never made a mod

[river oracle]

I haven't either

mod APIs are too complex for me atm still I rather learn something easier like spigot till I get a lot better at java

[ornate patio]

i would like to get into modding but i dont have any projects

[quaint mantle]

this is awfully specific but how can i create a random amount of items with each item being random as well, these items will go into a chest too, i have a method in mind but itd take a while

[chrome beacon]

Modding in modern versions really isn't that hard

[humble tulip]

I'm probably experienced enf to make a mod, i just don't care to

[ornate patio]

same

[humble tulip]

Create a list of materials that are items and get a random one when u need to and generate a number from 1 to the max stacksize

[proper notch]

You can filter by Material#isItem for that list.

[minor otter]

1.8 is garbage

[quaint mantle]

oh thats so much easier than what i was gonna do, ty

[chrome beacon]

Don't start that conversation again

[ornate patio]

what's the difference between Entity#setPersistent and LivingEntity#setRemoveWhenFarAway

[grim ice]

i mean there are still 1,530,000 monthly users that use 1.8

[crisp steeple]

oh god

[ornate patio]

pls go talk in general lmao

[crisp steeple]

not again

[quaint mantle]

i know a guy who never moved on past 1.8

[ornate patio]

#general or something idk

[quaint mantle]

he still doesnt know what elytras are

[grim ice]

lol

[ornate patio]

?

[tardy delta]

what class is that?

[eternal oxide]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/memory/MemoryKey.html

[grim ice]

the first Sets whether or not the entity gets persisted, and the second sets whether or not the living entity despawns when away from players or not

[ornate patio]

oh okay

thanks

also how do i get and set a horses speed

i figured out jump strength but speed is weird

[tall dragon]

Attributes

[tardy delta]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/horse-speed.259180/

[ornate patio]

thanks

[tender shard]

mcmmo's discord sucks so hard

and not in the good way

[humble tulip]

is it bad that i made a class with a constructor that accepts 12 things?

we'd have to see your code to tell u that

[eternal oxide]

depends

[humble tulip]

gonna make a "container" class to hold some of those things

just so it's easier to read, still need to pass all 12 things in

[eternal oxide]

a builder model may be cleaner

do all 12 really have to be declared?

[humble tulip]

yep i need all 12

[eternal oxide]

none can be a default and only set if different?

[humble tulip]

yessish?

i get it from a config

[tardy delta]

i hate constructors with a large amount of params

[humble tulip]

same lol

hence why i'm asking this

i made a class that holds all the menu items and pass those in

[eternal oxide]

if it comes from a config you could instead pass a config path/instance reference in the constructor instead

[humble tulip]

it's for a configurable menu

[humble tulip]

it can also be made ingame

i think ur builder idea is actually genius

ill throw an exception if everything isnt set

[eternal oxide]

sounds better than a 12 arg constructor 🙂

[humble tulip]

yeah lol

well now its down to 7

[somber hull]

😳

[odd adder]

this is my code , i want to get nbt from player , but it print {} , is there any thing i understand wrong?

@Override
    public void onEnable() {
        getLogger().info("onEnable is called!");
        Bukkit.getScheduler().scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(this,()->{
            List <Entity> entities = new ArrayList<>();
            List <World> world_list = Bukkit.getServer().getWorlds();
            for (World world : world_list) {
                entities.addAll(world.getEntities());
            }
            for (Entity entity : entities){
                if (entity.getType() == EntityType.PLAYER){
                    System.out.println("test");
                    getNBTFromEntity(entity);
                }
            }

        },0,2);

    }
    @Override
    public void onDisable() {
        getLogger().info("onDisable is called!");
    }

    public void getNBTFromEntity(Entity target){
        CraftEntity entity = (CraftEntity) target;
        CompoundTag nbt = new CompoundTag();
        entity.getHandle().save(nbt);
        System.out.println(nbt);
    }```

i think at line 28 , it should save entity's nbt to CompoundTag nbt
at line 29 , it should print entity's nbt out
but it gives me {} ,a empty CompoundTag

[somber hull]

Idk what your doing

Y not use persisdentdata

I can’t spell

[hybrid spoke]

presidentdata

[eternal oxide]

There will be no online Players when onEnable runs, unless its a reload

[somber hull]

Tru

@odd adder use persistent data also use like Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers() or whatever it is on a command
