[digital rain]

ehy guys, any idea how would i get the amount of bookshelfs surrounding an enchanting table

[tender shard]

I think you'd have to manually check them

[quaint mantle]

mfnalex is gonna link his library

or a method from it

[tender shard]

no I don't have anything for that

YET

[quaint mantle]

!??!

[echo basalt]

uhh

[tender shard]

but I'll do it right now because it seems useful

[glass mauve]

👀

[digital rain]

👀

[echo basalt]

NMS just does checks for that

[digital rain]

ping me or something if you have created it

[glass mauve]

xd

[tender shard]

-2 -2   -2 -1    -2 0   -2 1   -2 2

-1 -2                          -1 2

0 -2                            0 2

1 -2                            1 2

2 -2    2 -1     2 0     2 1    2 2

this are the offsets you have to check

same for Y+1

[glass mauve]

not that hard to check

[tender shard]

so I think I'll just throw this into an array and then check those blocks

but of course one would also have to check for "blocking" blocks

[ocean lion]

this did not work. gives error on the return

[eternal oxide]

well you are not supposed to "return"

its not code to just drop it, it tells you how to get the OfflinePlayer

?paste your listener class

[undone axle]

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

[ocean lion]

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

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

[crisp steeple]

you're checking if the player is null but then proceeding anyways?

[eternal oxide]

Probably https://paste.md-5.net/buxakesona.java
Edit: fixed.

[tender shard]

okay this is getting a bit nasty

    private static final class EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition {
        private static final Set<EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition> POSITIONS = new HashSet<>();
        private final int x;
        private final int z;
        private final int blockingX;
        private final int blockingZ;

        static {
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-2,-2, -1, -1));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-2,-1, -1, -1));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-2, 0, -1, 0));
            // ...
        }

        private EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(final int x, final int z, final int blockingX, final int blockingZ) {
            this.x = x;
            this.z = z;
            this.blockingX = blockingX;
            this.blockingZ = blockingZ;
        }
    }

[crisp steeple]

couldnt you just check the blocks around the enchant table

or does it need to be a specific pattern

[tender shard]

this is the pattern of acceptable bookshelves

but you also have to check that there is no other block inbetween

for example when -1 -1 is a torch, then the shelves at -2 -2, -2 -1 and -1 -2 won't work

[crisp steeple]

hm

[quaint mantle]

why not just store an array if you're just iterating?

[tender shard]

an array of ints or an array of EnchantmentTableBookshelfPositions?

[quaint mantle]

latter

[tender shard]

yeah sure I could do that. but first of all I want it written down nicely before I worry about that

[hexed rover]

guess u could also use a multidimensional array no?

[tender shard]

yes but that would look very nasty

[hexed rover]

but might be more efficient 🤷‍♂️

[tender shard]

no

[quaint mantle]

unnoticeably

[tender shard]

unless you check this 6 hundred thousand times per tick

[quaint mantle]

if you only ever cared about performance in java you'd code everything in one class

[tender shard]

yeah and call your classes and methods a.b()

[hexed rover]

I mean I agree, but on the other hand only cause not everything we do in Java is as optimized as it could be, doesn't mean we have to shit on everything else does it? 😂 (Not saying u should do it different here)
The only thing I'm just thinking is if everyone works in a way like this, it kinda adds up. (Even tho taking this as an example is prolly the worst I could do but you probably get where I'm coming from)

[quaint mantle]

use rust

never worry about object overhead again

[hexed rover]

smh

[tender shard]

Can someone please take a look whether this looks correct? lol

        static {
            // First row
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-2, -2, -1, -1));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-2, -1, -1, -1));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-2, 0, -1, 0));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-2, 1, -1, 1));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-2, 2, -1, 1));

            // Second row
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-1, -2, -1, -1));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-1, 2, -1, 1));

            // Third row
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(0, -2, 0, -1));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(0, 2, 0, 1));

            // Fourth row
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-1, -2, -1, -1));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(-1, 2, -1, 1));

            // Fifth row
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(2, -2, 1, -1));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(2, -1, 1, -1));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(2, 0, 1, 0));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(2, 1, 1, 1));
            POSITIONS.add(new EnchantmentTableBookshelfPosition(2, 2, 1, 1));
        }

first numbers are the bookshelf location, second numbers are the block that must be checked whether its empty or not

[hexed rover]

this looks like youre checking the very corner blocks arent u?

[eternal oxide]

Yeah I think corners are not counted as they are No LOS

[tender shard]

oh

[hexed rover]

Im not sure whether theyre counted or not, but if theyre bordering the others they are most likely irrelevant

[tender shard]

erm wtf

how is the middle enchantment more expensive than the lowest one

[hexed rover]

that happens sometimes for some reason

[quaint mantle]

wtf lol

[eternal oxide]

I've seen that happen and thought it odd

[digital rain]

second and forth row literally the same thing

[tender shard]

the corrner blocks are definitely checked too

this gets 8 levels

[eternal oxide]

good to know. I thought they were not

[tender shard]

without shelves its just 5

[eternal oxide]

oh yes, but place others and the corners get cut off

[tender shard]

oh yeah, 4th row must be 1 not -1

[hexed rover]

yes, but not if they have bordering blocks

cause then theyre out of sight

at least it should be

[tender shard]

no

as you see, it's now level 12 and 3 in the upper left corner

[hexed rover]

yea okay, minecraft wiki says the same thing

[tender shard]

without the corner block it's only 10

[eternal oxide]

so if you built it without corners and then add corners the level increases?

[tender shard]

yes, check my last 2 screens

[eternal oxide]

good

[tender shard]

but this is weird

the sand doesnt block those shelves

[hexed rover]

low key always lived in a lie

[tender shard]

the sand in that picture would ONLY block the missing corner shelf

[ocean lion]

now it didnt work at all, the head did not open the guy just got into my inv

[eternal oxide]

show me

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[ocean lion]

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

[eternal oxide]

nothing wrong with that code

[ocean lion]

yet when I open with /target, and click the head it does not take me to the next gui and just says "specified player is not online"

[eternal oxide]

well that would say the player is not online

[tender shard]

it seems like a shelf can have more than one "blocking position" and it's only blocked when all those positions are occupied

[echo basalt]

that's how they check internally

probably easier to read the original loop

[tender shard]

erm why does it have a random number in it?

[echo basalt]

honestly I'm an idiot

it's for the particles

[tender shard]

what class is that from?

[echo basalt]

BlockEnchantmentTable

[tender shard]

thx

[echo basalt]

this is how they check for the blocks iirc

[tender shard]

doesn't exist in 1.19 remapped

ah

[echo basalt]

bruh

[tender shard]

it's EnchantmentTableBlock

and it has a method isValidBookshelf

[echo basalt]

the bookshelves are check usually done in the container class

[quaint mantle]

i really hope obfustication makes it look like that

otherwise we know why updates take so long

[echo basalt]

obfuscation only renames the fields

[quaint mantle]

oh god

[echo basalt]

you should see the warden code

0 pathfinders

purely behaviorcontroller

[quaint mantle]

show

[echo basalt]

gotta open 1.19 holupo

[quaint mantle]

why are they multiplying by 2 instead of bitshifting?

[eternal oxide]

so they got new devs then?

[echo basalt]

because they're idiots

[quaint mantle]

i need to become a minecraft dev

[echo basalt]

go work at mojang lol

add transfer packet

[tender shard]

i once tested bitshifting vs multiplication and it was basically equally fast

[quaint mantle]

some compilers optimize it

[tender shard]

I then googled and found out that the CPU itself will simply use bitshifting when possible

[brave sparrow]

Because realistically it’s getting optimized at a lower level yeah

[hexed rover]

might depend on the year of cpu tho i could imagine

[tender shard]

so whoever thinks "Hm should I replace this with a bitshift instead for performenace" is just wasting their time

[echo basalt]

pain in the ass

[quaint mantle]

i really hope that the code really isnt that bad.

[tender shard]

bro why dont you use mojang mappings >.<

[quaint mantle]

they gotta have a team of people to make the code look like shit

[echo basalt]

I use gradle groovy

pain in the ass to setup

[river oracle]

why is minecraft code so bad

[echo basalt]

I just can't bother

[quaint mantle]

AngerManagement

[echo basalt]

they sure need some

it's just a fancy map

this pains me

so doesthis list

[river oracle]

Object2IntMap

[echo basalt]

welcome to fastutil

I just wonder why the key is an Entity and not a uuid

[quaint mantle]

well if the entities are still used outside of this class for the

ykw ill just use rust to explain

[echo basalt]

bruh the angermanagement class is purely made for the warden

AngerLevel has warden sounds hardcoded

[river oracle]

what the hell

0 abstraction 💀 and you wonder why it takes them so long to make updates

if the entire codebase is that bad

[echo basalt]

They used to use PathfinderGoals

[brave sparrow]

That’s the case with most microoptimizations

[echo basalt]

had nice abstraction but it was janky

[river oracle]

does mojang need devs?

[echo basalt]

I wasted an hour theorizing about branchless Math.abs

[echo basalt]

some

[quaint mantle]

dude i made a stringbuilder and appened a million characters

it was slower by 15 seconds

wanna know why? because i didnt bitshift

[echo basalt]

https://boards.greenhouse.io/mojangab/jobs/4342763004

let's pull a dinnerbone move and apply at mojang

[river oracle]

what is that supposd to mean

[tender shard]

shit, yeah that's a rookie mistake. You should get an AbstractBitShiftingStringBuilderGeneratorFactory to get a BitShiftingStringBuilderGenerator that you can use to create a BitShiftingStringBuilder, then use that to append your character a million times

[quaint mantle]

true true

[echo basalt]

he was workin on bukkit

then went to mojang

[brave sparrow]

StringBuilder gets a lot of its code replaced at runtime by native code in the JVM anyway

[echo basalt]

y'all are seeing it from the wrong perspective

gpu-optimized stringbuilder

512 bit string manipulation

[brave sparrow]

Which class is this, I wanna see how much the obfuscation changed it lmao

[river oracle]

I wonder how the work environment is there. I can't imagine working with a game that is supposed to have a notoriously awful code base

[echo basalt]

Warden

[echo basalt]

They passively improve it

[brave sparrow]

Which class though

[echo basalt]

r u def

probably WardenEntity or EntityWarden

idfk I'm not a fancy tool user

[brave sparrow]

I’ll take a look

I’m not a fancy tool user either I’m on my phone lmfao

It’s just Warden, I found it

[karmic sapphire]

What’s the game rule to disable elcytrafly check?

[echo basalt]

folks at #help-server might be better help honestly

we just code the gamerules ourselves

[tender shard]

I THINK it works like this btw. The gold block has to be free for the gold ore to work, and the lapis block has to be free for the lapis ore to work

[crisp steeple]

dreamwastaken code 💀

[river oracle]

I'm pretty sure George actually does most of the coding I don't think dream knows very much

wait

sumo_sex_plugin what the fuck

[crisp steeple]

yea

[river oracle]

this gotta be fake

[crisp steeple]

he made a really weird plugin a while ago

there was a whole twitter thread about it

[river oracle]

huh

where did he post it

[echo basalt]

I have some contacts that used to work for Invadedlands and work with dream

[crisp steeple]

let me see if i can find it

[echo basalt]

they don't go that low in terms of quality

[crisp steeple]

apparently he sent this sex plugin to a minor or something

[river oracle]

what the hell

doesn't surprise me anymore tho

[tender shard]

lol who are you talking about

and wtf is a sex plugin lmao

and why didn't i have the idea to do a sex plugin

[brave sparrow]

Let’s go shift in this corner step bro

[river oracle]

Dream the popular minecraft youtuber or never mind the popular speed run cheater

[crisp steeple]

bruh

[tender shard]

never heard of him I think

[river oracle]

he made the manhunt videos that got like semi-popular and he also cheated on speedruns

[crisp steeple]

no shot

[tender shard]

hm shit this is also not true

I don't understand how the enchantment table bookshelf thing works

so fuck it

[humble tulip]

Use one bookshelf

And try it

[tender shard]

well the funny thing is

one bookshelf doesn't do shit lol

both, no shelf or one shelf results in max level 5

when you add a second shelf you're up to level 7

[digital rain]

lmfao

[brave sparrow]

Should just be in the table code no?

[digital rain]

at least you tried, not sure if you gave up yet

[tender shard]

the table code is extremely weird

[humble tulip]

Bruh

[tender shard]

    public static boolean isValidBookShelf(Level var0, BlockPos var1, BlockPos var2) {
        return var0.getBlockState(var1.offset(var2)).is(Blocks.BOOKSHELF) && var0.isEmptyBlock(var1.offset(var2.getX() / 2, var2.getY(), var2.getZ() / 2));
    }

like WTF is the offset between var1 and var2

how can the offset between the enchantment table and the bookshelf also be a bookshelf

[brave sparrow]

Let me check rq

What class is that in

[tender shard]

EnchantmentTableBlock

[brave sparrow]

package?

[humble tulip]

That's actually weird

[tender shard]

net.minecraft.world.level.block

[brave sparrow]

Kk

[humble tulip]

Cuz id assume that will be near 0 0 0

[tender shard]

I don't understand this whole offset thing at all

[humble tulip]

The offset that is

[tender shard]

I mean the offset between the shelf and the bookshelf should be sth like 0,0,-2

but they directly check the block at the offset position, makes no sense to me

[humble tulip]

It's checking 0,0,2 for a bookshelf😂

[tender shard]

like i have a table at 100,64,100 and a shelf at 100,64,102. the offset would be 0,0,2?!

why are they checking the block at 0,0,2?

or am I missing sth here

[humble tulip]

Cuz realistically it's never a bookshelf

[brave sparrow]

Ok here’s how it works

[dreamy idol]

What would be a good service for Bungee <-> Spigot communication?

[eternal oxide]

go place a bookshelf at 0,0,2 ans see if it affects the level

[tender shard]

Redis

[brave sparrow]

The enchantment table is checking for a valid bookshelf at (x, y, z), you understand that so far right @tender shard ?

[kind hatch]

I mean, an offset of 2 makes sense. There's a block of space inbetween the bookshelf and the enchanting table, so....

[tender shard]

obviously

[brave sparrow]

var1 is the position of the enchanting table

[humble tulip]

Does offset get the offset

Or add it?

[brave sparrow]

var2 is the offset from the table to each bookshelf being checked

[humble tulip]

Ahh

[tender shard]

wtf

[humble tulip]

So it adds iy

[tender shard]

why are they using a BlockPos for an offset, that's just confusing

[brave sparrow]

It then computes whether the block at var1 + var2 is a bookshelf

[tender shard]

yeah that makes sense now

I of course thought that a BlockPos is a block position in the world and not just the offset

[brave sparrow]

Lol

[tender shard]

alrighty then I can just translate this to regular bukkit code, and lets see whether it works lol. thanks

[brave sparrow]

BlockPos is basically Vector rather than Location

[tender shard]

yeah the name is so stupid

because it's literally block POSITION

should be called just Vector3

[dreamy idol]

why?

[tender shard]

because it has the pub/sub system

[brave sparrow]

That would’ve been a pain to figure out without the variable names

[dreamy idol]

why not make usage of netty?

[humble tulip]

Plugin messaging requres an online player

Oh u wanna use netty

U can ig

It'll be more difficult than redis tho

Depends on ur usecase

[dreamy idol]

just short time information like updating server states and money for players

[tender shard]

because it's way more complicated imho

[humble tulip]

Use redis for that

[dreamy idol]

in that case each server requires its own channel doesn't it?

or should i use a channel for a specific kind of information?

I found this one:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54178462/how-does-redis-pubsub-subscribe-mechanism-works/54243792#54243792

[tender shard]

    private static final int[][] BOOKSHELF_OFFSETS = new int[][]{
            {-2, 0, -2}, {-1, 0, -2}, {0, 0, -2}, {1, 0, -2}, {2, 0, -2},
            {-2, 0, -1},                                      {2, 0, -1},
            {-2, 0,  0},                                      {2, 0,  0},
            {-2, 0,  1},                                      {2, 0,  1},

            {-2, 1,  2}, {-1, 1,  2}, {0, 1,  2}, {1, 1,  2}, {2, 1,  2},
    };

Finally this looks fancy lol

[quaint mantle]

i thought new Type[]{}

was redundant for declarations

[tender shard]

yeah it is

typed it out of habit

[humble tulip]

Wait wdym

[tender shard]

he means you can do this

    public static final int[][] BOOKSHELF_OFFSETS = {
            {-2, 0, -2}, {-1, 0, -2}, {0, 0, -2}, {1, 0, -2}, {2, 0, -2}, ...

without new int[][]

[humble tulip]

Wait really?

Sonce which java ver?

[quaint mantle]

since always

[humble tulip]

👀

[brave sparrow]

^

[humble tulip]

Wow

[crisp steeple]

swear i tried it before and it didnt work

[tender shard]

this will not work in expressions though.

for(String name : {"mfnalex"})

will not work

[brave sparrow]

It has to be in the initial declaration

[quaint mantle]

declarations

[brave sparrow]

You can’t do it in assignments

[tender shard]

this only works like this

for(String name : new String[] {"mfnalex"})

also why is this idiot using an array if he only stores one name

what a jerk

[quaint mantle]

@NotNull
public static String camelToKebab(@NotNull String name) {
    StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder(name.length() << 1);

@tender shard

cry

im pretty sure one of your blockdata methods had like 8 bitshifts

[tender shard]

yes CustomBLockData #getKey

someon PRed that IIRC

[humble tulip]

Why would you bitshift the length of a string?

[quaint mantle]

so the stringbuilder never has to grow

[humble tulip]

I'm not good enough to understand that

[quaint mantle]

a stringbuilder keeps an array of bytes

byte[] content;

[humble tulip]

Ye that's the bytearray of the string right?

[quaint mantle]

yeah

this content has an initial size of 15 bytes

[humble tulip]

Ok but why do you shift by one bit?

[quaint mantle]

I ♥ bytes

thats 9 characters

18 bytes

the stringbuilder will have to grow the internal array, because this wont fit

[humble tulip]

See i told you I'm not good enf😂

[quaint mantle]

just listen

[quaint mantle]

.

so the stringbuilder creates a new array and uses that one instead

[humble tulip]

Ohh

[quaint mantle]

with the array's capacity at currentArray.length << 1

bitshifting once to the left just means multiplying by two

its so much faster tho

[humble tulip]

Won't the compiler fix that?

[quaint mantle]

nope

[humble tulip]

I thought it made optimizations like those

[quaint mantle]

dude i made a stringbuilder and appened a million characters
it was slower by 15 seconds
wanna know why? because i didnt bitshift

[humble tulip]

If u divide by 16, it can bitshift 4 times

[quaint mantle]

java doesnt optimize shit

[humble tulip]

Wow

Nice

1char=2bytes?

[quaint mantle]

for utf-16

[humble tulip]

Utf8 is 1char =1byte then

[quaint mantle]

yeah

[humble tulip]

Ohh the number after uts is num of bits

😂

Utf

[quaint mantle]

utf-16 = unicode transformation format, 16 bits

utf-8 = unicode transformation format, 8 bits

2^16 = 65536 possible characters

[humble tulip]

Utf16 has emojis 8 does not?

[quaint mantle]

i guess

[humble tulip]

Ah

[quaint mantle]

https://www.utf8-chartable.de

[humble tulip]

That makes sense

[eternal oxide]

8 has emojis. It uses control codes to double up bytes

[quaint mantle]

whatever elgar says is right

[humble tulip]

So basically 2 chars is one emoji in utf8?

[eternal oxide]

yep

well 3

[quaint mantle]

char != byte

[eternal oxide]

control code and 2 bytes

[humble tulip]

Hm

[brave sparrow]

Depends heavily on the CPU and the JVM

[quaint mantle]

JVM optimizes

most java compiler do not

[brave sparrow]

It doesn’t matter if the compiler does if the JVM optimizes the bytecode

[humble tulip]

I swear the jvm is magic

[quaint mantle]

how

[brave sparrow]

The JVM optimizes like a beast

[humble tulip]

It just seems to do its own thing

I dont understand it thus magic to me

[brave sparrow]

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic

[quaint mantle]

rust

wanna know something cool about rust

String is an owned, growable string, like a stringbuilder in java
Box<str> is a non-growing string, with ownership

[humble tulip]

Is string+= faster than stringBuilder.append?

[quaint mantle]

hell no

[humble tulip]

Intellij tells me to use stringBuilder.append whwn I use the former

[quaint mantle]

string += toAppend means string = new StringBuilder(string).append(toAppend)

[humble tulip]

Oh wtf

So it creates a new stringbuilder

[quaint mantle]

strings are immutable

it has to

dont worry its optimized

its just a warning that your code is bad

[brave sparrow]

Uhhh

I’m not sure about it allocating a new StringBuilder

String += is significantly slower than using a stringbuilder

[quaint mantle]

look at the bytecode

[humble tulip]

What abt something like "sql statement stuff here" + some variable + " more sql stuff there"

[brave sparrow]

That’s why people use stringbuilder

[humble tulip]

Is stringbuilder append faster?

[quaint mantle]

optimized by the compiler

no difference

[brave sparrow]

Yes

[humble tulip]

Ok

[brave sparrow]

Specifically in the case where you’re appending to a string in a for loop or something similar

[ornate patio]

how do i force a wheat seed into a brewing stand

[tender shard]

mojang's code is so weird

if you set the maxStackSize of an item to > 1, it is not enchantable anymore

[humble tulip]

Can't u get the inv and set the item?

[ornate patio]

oh is it that easy

[humble tulip]

Idk have u tried?

I dont see why it shouldn't

[ornate patio]

well

would it also be possible to be able to have the user directly put the seed into the brewing stand

like a normal drag and drop

[brave sparrow]

You can’t let the client do that

But if it fires the appropriate event, you could allow it to happen

[ornate patio]

can i abuse inventoryclickevent?

[brave sparrow]

Potentially

[ornate patio]

alright time to do some experimenting

it actually seems very possible

[ornate hollow]

is it possible to retrieve the url from the plugin.yml of another plugin
I need it so that i can expose the plugin list and the links to theme on server webpage (aka i am building a rest api)

[tender shard]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/plugin/PluginDescriptionFile.html

JavaPlugin#getPluginDescriptionFile() -> #getWebsite()

[ornate hollow]

thank you

[ornate patio]

is there an alternative to this

[worldly ingot]

No. Just be aware of that notice

You notice that a lot more when the player is in creative mode, but you will notice it in survival mode too

[ornate patio]

well

damn idk if i should use it then

[humble tulip]

R u setting it to null?

[ornate patio]

i'm removing one item from the itemstack

which could potentially lead to null

[humble tulip]

Ah

Might be messy

Try it and see tho

[unborn kiln]

How would I go about making an armor stand go up and down smoothly a specified amount of blocks in a loop? If anyone could help that'd be greatly appreciated. Sorry if I come across a bit rude.

[humble tulip]

Well u would have to use a runnable

[unborn kiln]

I know that

and I know to use a sinus function

but I don't really know how

[humble tulip]

Lets say from y=0 to y=5

Over 100 ticks

U divide the distance by 100

[ornate patio]

i'm using it and i don't see any issues, even in creative

[humble tulip]

Then u tp it up the increment each tick

[unborn kiln]

kk, tysm

[humble tulip]

Well ur fine

[ornate patio]

}

I'm trying to allow the player put seeds into the brewing stand

and it works and all

problem is if I try to put seeds in slots 0, 1, or 2 of my OWN inventory with the brewing prompt open it'll just make the seeds on my cursor disappear

trying to put it here makes the item teleport to the brewing stand slot, and if it's already full it'll just delete items from my cursor

[tender shard]

so I finally put this together into a method.

Is possible to hide a block and unhide it?

[tender shard]

Player#sendBlockChange

[ornate patio]

basically how do I distinguish between the brewing part and my own inventory

[sterile token]

Atm in using an oddy way, setting the block to air and then by the location setting up to the old block

[tender shard]

InventoryView#getTopInventory and getBottomInventory

[sterile token]

Its for the protection block hide and unhide command

[sterile token]

what do you think mfnalex*?

[ornate patio]

wait where do i get inventoryview

[tender shard]

for example in an InventoryClickEvent

[sterile token]

InventoryOpenEvent, InventoryCloseEvent too

[tender shard]

or from Player#getOpenInventory

[sterile token]

Also remember we have the javadocs which tell all the events

[sterile token]

By the view

[kind hatch]

Get the top inventory

hold up im lost

event.getInventory() instanceof BrewerInventory && event.getClickedInventory() == ???

[kind hatch]

InventoryClickEvent#getView#getTopInventory()

[ornate patio]

ah

so like this I'm assuming
event.getView().getTopInventory().equals(event.getClickedInventory())

[tender shard]

yeah that checks if you clicked the top inventory

[ornate patio]

great

[tender shard]

but you also must always think of the InventoryDragEvent too

[ornate patio]

true

i mean actually idrc that much

its just 3 items

[quaint mantle]

I was wondering if it is possible to make a gui that is bound to a keybind in bukkit or I need to make it as a mod?

[kind hatch]

Probably going to have to make a mod. Keybinds aren’t accessible through the API.

Normally, plugins that want to give off the illusion that they use keybinds just use the PlayerSwapHandItem, or whatever it is actually called, event.

[quaint mantle]

thx so bassicly it could be made with an item

or a command

[kind hatch]

The only “keybinds" you can really use are the Drop Key or the Swap Hand Key. I’m not sure if there are other ones that have events tied to them, but if there isn’t an event, you’ll have to rely on mods for whatever functionality you are looking for.

[quaint mantle]

well thx for responding to me

[wet breach]

client doesn't really tell the server what keys they pressed

[echo basalt]

uhh

it sends a packet for whenever you press F

small price to pay in some servers

[wet breach]

I forget what the F key does

[echo basalt]

offhand

[wet breach]

ah, well for most things key presses are sent

[echo basalt]

even if you're not holding anything, packets still get sent

[wet breach]

for instance, opening the inventory for example

or moving

[echo basalt]

that's the best part

you can cancel the packet / event and it's smooth

No client-side 1 tick item bullshit

[sterile token]

Your welcome

[wet breach]

key presses are in packets too or can be lol. Point being, is you generally can't listen for specific key presses rather just events/actions from packets

[sterile token]

If need extra help just dm me or ask it here

[echo basalt]

I wouldn't say verano is the most helpful guy out here

[wet breach]

it is handy to have the packets that way, but sometimes it is better to listen for key presses, for example when moving 😛

[echo basalt]

so just ask here

[sterile token]

Why lmao?

You always saying bullshit about me

Im not idiot i could be dum but not ...

[echo basalt]

Just a ask / reply ratio

I talk shit about everyone, not you in particular

so you are no fun then

got it

[echo basalt]

just angry by default because I hate myself

👍

[sterile token]

Oh that its what you must do

[wet breach]

I got a job recently where I change out semi tires off trucks and trailers 🙂

my fastest time on a truck, is 33 minutes changing out all 10 tires 😄

[echo basalt]

Sounds fun

[hybrid spoke]

did you hear of alt+f4?

[echo basalt]

By day I'm an intern at a school

jobs include passing ethernet cables through walls and replacing projectors

by night I'm coder man

[wet breach]

they pay me $20.50 an hour to change tires, I don't even have to take the tires off the rims either

[echo basalt]

I don't get paid 👍

[wet breach]

that is illegal then

[echo basalt]

nope

they call it on-the-job training

[wet breach]

using interns to replace skilled labor is illegal in the US

[echo basalt]

and it's mandatory for my type of education

[sterile token]

that pretty cool, do they pay a rasonable amount?

[echo basalt]

I only get paid for my coding stuff at night

[wet breach]

he works for free on that not knowing any better, but then again I don't know which country they live in and by the sounds of it they are not in the US

in the US it is illegal to have interns do work on their own that isn't for the purposes of teaching

[echo basalt]

ehh

I abuse the system a bit

by doing coding stuff whenever classrooms are busy

and leaving early on sunny days when the shawty feels like going for a swim

[wet breach]

now while although most interns are paid in the US, companies can pay them a significantly lower rate

so there is that

but they still for the most part get paid lol

[echo basalt]

interns by law must be unpaid in my country lol

but companies are obligated to pay for food and transport costs

which ends up to like 200$/mo

except since I work at a school, and live across the street, I get nothing

[wet breach]

well in the US there is a way to not pay interns, but its a very fine line that is easy to get in trouble for, so most businesses just pay interns so they don't get in trouble

[echo basalt]

Ehh

[sterile token]

what the heck are interns?

[echo basalt]

the amount of cuts I go through during work days would not make it worth the money I'd receive if I were in the US

my hands end up getting scratched / cut like 2-3x per day

[wet breach]

they are people that not certified or possess the skills for the job, and they are used to teach them the skills or help them get certified. So they get to learn with someone who is skilled.

[sterile token]

In technic school we have some people known as "assistants" which repair computers, do internet staff

[echo basalt]

I wish I wasn't certified

went into a programming course with 5 years of experience just to get a degree

[wet breach]

there is no degree for programming

[echo basalt]

Well I'm getting an associates

[wet breach]

in what?

I am certain it doesn't say Associates in Programming

[echo basalt]

IT programming / management

[sterile token]

Allright, but they must be paid for what they do. Because they are also learning but the most important thing is that they help on universities, etc

[sterile token]

For example, wiring ethernet cables, etc

[echo basalt]

> Internship in programming
> mounting electrical and network sockets for 6 hours straight

caught covid midway, gotta work 9 hours / day now 👍

system made to fuck me over but nothing I can do

[wet breach]

well typically because they don't have those skills or certifications their work typically tends to be of lesser quality or it takes twice as long to complete a job. So there is ways to not pay an intern, however in the US too many businesses kept getting in trouble for abusing this system so most places that hire interns typically pay them, but they get to pay them significantly less for some fields

[sterile token]

also sorry for chaging topic, but is the same this?

1. if (!condtion-1 && !condition-2)
2. if (!(condition-1 && condition-2))

[echo basalt]

yes

[sterile token]

I dont think

Because im doing:

[echo basalt]

not-one and not-two is the same as not-(one and two)

[sterile token]

if (!(argument.getPermission().isEmpty() && sender.hasPermission(argument.getPermission()))) {}

And is returning true

[sterile token]

The 2 conditions are true, i already debbuged it

[echo basalt]

uhh

wtf

if it's empty then you can't really get it

I guess it returns true by default

[sterile token]

Hmn its actually dumb, because it shouldnt be returning true

[echo basalt]

drop the ()

[sterile token]

that its incorrect

[echo basalt]

no its not

[sterile token]

Because dropping the (!(condition-1 && condition-2)) ill make the code negate only the first condition

[vale stag]

Hello! I'm new to plugin and resource pack development and wanted to know if this is a good way to do this.
OK so I wanna add an a set of items and mechanics attached to those items (scuba gear that allows one to breath for a bit longer underwater), I don't wanna make a full on mod, just a resource pack to add the items with their recipiew, and I think I need to add stuff to a plugin to make the items have the effect (a bunch of setRemainingAir calls to manually set the "higher" oxygen capacity)
Is this approach a good idea? Or is this massively overkill and can be done just with the resource pack?

[sterile token]

You need like that

Because the texture pack only is used to give a texture to that custom recipe

[quaint mantle]

its your choice rather to make it through plugins or resource packs

[sterile token]

He need the 2

[quaint mantle]

?

[sterile token]

cuz of this

[quaint mantle]

resource pack != texture pack

[sterile token]

Oh

They are diff

I didnt know my bad

[vale stag]

yeah that's why I'm asking, can a resource pack do something like player.setMaximumAir()?

I legit can't find much documentation on resource packs, most I get is from Microsoft for bedrock edition

[sterile token]

No

[paper viper]

Please only use the resourcepack only for textures, and do everything else in plugins

[quaint mantle]

do you mean datapacks?

[paper viper]

it will save your time

[sterile token]

that what i told him or not?

[quaint mantle]

you cant code through texture packs

[quaint mantle]

@vale stag

[vale stag]

oh they are called datapacks, sorry

[sterile token]

Using texture pack, you only give textures to items

[paper viper]

please no 💀 datapacks are literally a million chained commands

[quaint mantle]

yeah use plugins

[vale stag]

ok, thanks!

[sterile token]

How do you make texture packs?

And where i can download the base for 1.19?

[paper viper]

you could extract it from the client jar ig

[sterile token]

Hmn

The jar i obf

[paper viper]

?

obfuscation doesnt do anything

its resources

[sterile token]

Yeah the jar sources are obfuscated

[paper viper]

oh...

[sterile token]

I have already tried

I think it because i use a moded 3rd party client

I ill try extracting from the original one

yeah no

do the original one

i know but rn i dont wanna work on making something

[vocal cloud]

Yeah there are pagination libs out there

[humble tulip]

i tried spigui

i dont understand how to do this with it

ah wait

i figured it out 😂

[vast raven]

How to get the ID of a task inside that task?

[quaint mantle]

super.getTaskId()

[tender shard]

it sends a ClientboundPlayerInfoPacket

[ocean lion]

what did you do

[humble tulip]

there;s a stickSlot method

that makes that slot permanant thru pages

[kind hatch]

It's the opposite method for hidePlayer so it makes sense.
You may want to look into how some vanish plugins handle this. Because, if you want players to not be hidden on the tablist, but invisible to other players, you may need something a little more advanced.

Alternatively, you could overwrite the tablist, but then you run into issues with interfering with other tab plugins.

[tender shard]

the serialize() method on CraftPlayer is a joke lol

    public Map<String, Object> serialize() {
        Map<String, Object> result = new LinkedHashMap();
        result.put("name", this.getName());
        return result;
    }

it's working exactly as intended

[kind hatch]

^

What you want is not possible with the methods you are currently using.

[tender shard]

you hide a player, then show it again. what did you expect to happen lol

[tender shard]

^ this

check out how all those vanish plugins do it

for example, first thing that comes to my mind: send all players a packet that you changed the gamemode to spectator

[tender shard]

^

oh wait then the name in tab is italic

[kind hatch]

And at the bottom of the tablist

[wet breach]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#hidePlayer(org.bukkit.plugin.Plugin,org.bukkit.entity.Player)

what do you mean not shown?

[kind hatch]

On the tablist.

You may want to also look into scoreboard teams and add the player to one when they are "invisible" That way it may not entirely screw up their position in the tablist.

[crude loom]

How can I change the color of potions in 1.8?

[wet breach]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/LivingEntity.html#setInvisible(boolean)

might want to try that

[crude loom]

The setColor method doesn't exist in 1.8

[wet breach]

1.8 is also not supported anymore either

[kind hatch]

Officially?

[wet breach]

yep officially hasn't been supported for like a decade

[kind hatch]

I meant here, by spigot.

[wet breach]

yes here by spigot

[river oracle]

lol the last update to 1.8 was the log4j fix

yea super supported guys

[wet breach]

the reason it is an exception is due to the fact that many people use 1.8 and has to do with security. Spigot could have chosen to not do that, but that was MD's decision. Support for 1.8 does not exist and hasn't for a decade or round about

[kind hatch]

Perhaps I misunderstood. I thought you meant there was an announcement or something that said 1.8 will no longer be supported on the forums or something.

[river oracle]

its technically not supported I mean no updates are being pushed other than that security fix exception

[tender shard]

omg log4j is already 7 months ago

[river oracle]

ik its crazy we still get people in here asking if its fixed too lmao

[wet breach]

just because people choose to use an outdated software does not mean other people are obligated to provide support for something they purposely chosen to use despite it being outdated. That is just ignorant

[kind hatch]

I believe it's intended.

Must be doing something right then.

[tender shard]

why did you copy paste my answer?

[wet breach]

point being from the above conversation for you, is you can wait till someone chooses to help but you also might not get help at all due to the fact it is really outdated. Typically it is up to you to figure it out with whatever problems you have because some of us here don't even use those versions anymore and don't remember all the various API's that exist or don't exist for that version.

[hexed rover]

[river oracle]

true he just released the most useful resource i've seen in a while

[kind hatch]

He went out of his way to make it public!

[river oracle]

only thing I would think of that would be causing that is if your code isn't even being run

[tender shard]

you definitely got a console error that says Invalid key. Must be [a-z0-9/._-]

[zenith gate]

I mean it's in on Enabled.

[zenith gate]

No caps?

[tender shard]

you cannot use spaces

it'll automatically turn the uppercase letters to lowercase

[zenith gate]

oh in the key

[tender shard]

so that's no problem, but a space in the key is a problem

[winged anvil]

if i have multiple plugins for just my own use connecting to a mongo database, would it be beneficial to just make one plugin to connect with and have my other plugins use that plugin to access the database?

[sterile token]

Oh good question, never thoguth about it

[zenith gate]

Yes, my internet went out, need to wait to get on my computer again.

[kind hatch]

It would reduce duplicate code amongst your plugins, but your plugins then no longer become standalone. They now have to rely on an API or external jar that has those methods.

[river oracle]

not really beneficial if you ever plan to release those plugins

[sterile token]

But for personal use its wrong

[hexed rover]

Would also most likely come at the cost of not being able to use different databases per plugin

[sterile token]

And what about perfomance?

[sterile token]

Why not? You can do that anyway

[kind hatch]

It'd be roughly the same. Maybe a millisecond or two longer if you need to make a call to an API in another jar.

[sterile token]

Allrr thanks

[hexed rover]

Depends on how your api handles it, but if it was just going to connect to 1 database then you're stuck to that one. If you allow access to different databases then it doesn't seem much different to me than just having a connection per plugin

[zenith gate]

I figured it out, it was nothing wrong with the recipe, is was my other stuff for enchants.

[sterile token]

In my case i will create a lib, so its even more easier coding plugin (not a plugin, a vanilla java lib)

[hexed rover]

I've thought about this myself once, I don't really think it's really worth it though, as being able to run things standalone sometimes really is a blessing

[kind hatch]

^ this.

[quaint mantle]

ive never seen arrow kotlin code

i thought kotlin was for good programmers

[sterile token]

Also people, if you need to deploy some databases for testing you can use https://railway.app it allow you to create multiple project with database services, enviroments, webhooks, add members, etc

Keep in thoguht im not doing spam, just trying to help people

[vocal cloud]

Just run your own local DBs

[sterile token]

In my case i dont like having lot of things on my pc. And doker dont fit me really well

[wet breach]

love how the cloud is still being advertised even though there isn't anything special about it for developers

[quaint mantle]

this looks cool

[sterile token]

I dont know, im figuring how to deploy a NodeJS, but for the momment i use their database services for teting

[wet breach]

nodejs is just javascript

no real deploying needed

[sterile token]

In the case of using that website, i didnt figure how to deploy a nodejs app

[wet breach]

but in regards to developers, the cloud doesn't mean anything. It is still a server

[sterile token]

Yep

But idk i see useful for some people, but its not amazing

[wet breach]

what annoys me with places that use the cloud to advertise as a developer is not telling me the hardware specs

[sterile token]

agree, most of the time they dont say what specs you have

it would be really useful them telling you have x bandwith for limit (before your app goes down), x cores and threads, etc

[winged anvil]

well really all i need it for is a currency, i have a currency for each player but need the currency in multiple different plugins

so i thought having a core plugin for getting players coins would do

all the plugins i make are strictly for my server

[sterile token]

Did you have any concurrency problem?

For example, player leaves lobby server, and he joined a new server but his data was not udpated, because he joined a minigame server faster than the process of saving data from lobby and loading it into minigame

[wet breach]

this is one of the reasons for using caching mechanisms. Specifically expiring caches

with an expire cache you would solve that problem @sterile token

[sterile token]

Oh

I always used redis to solve that problem

Im so idiot

redis is a cache server that does have expiring cache features

[sterile token]

For saving concurrency problem i load only 1 global cache and them work over it

[wet breach]

however you don't need redis for this

[sterile token]

I jut realized hen you told me that

Can u send an example?

So i can understand better :D

[wet breach]

well spigot has guava shaded in which has expiring cache mechanisms

[sterile token]

Yeah i know

But i dont know how to run code when it expire

[wet breach]

the cache handles it

you just tell the cache handler what to do when it encounters an object not in cache

IE where to pull it from

then everything else accessing the cache just uses the cache methods to get the object. If it is expired, cache handler goes and pulls the object to put in the cache

if its in the cache already not expired yet, it just gives that instead

[sterile token]

Allr

Frost one last thing

[sterile token]

Is it async?

[wet breach]

you should be able to use it async

async doesn't automatically mean multi-threaded

[sterile token]

I mean in the way of how it pull

If he pull the data async or how

Because non async database things can make the main thread slower or even block it

or im wrong?

[wet breach]

you can create a custom method to return stuff from a db and then have that cache handler call that method

org.bukkit.plugin.InvalidPluginException: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "com.yanesagrybnow.colornickname.ColorNickname.getConfig()" because "com.yanesagrybnow.colornickname.ColorNickname.instance" is null

why does it give me this when my config is not null ?

[kind hatch]

Probably because you are using a static instance of your main class to access a config.

[wet breach]

instance seems to be null

I am assuming you are not instantiating an object you are trying to use

[ocean lion]

    public ColorNickname() {
        instance = this;
    }

[kind hatch]

Why? Just use the class itself as it's own instance at that point.

[sterile token]

Something like CompletableFuture<> right?

[wet breach]

why are you using a singleton pattern here?

[wet breach]

you can, but don't necessarily need to do that

[sterile token]

It recommend to use DI instead of singleton

[sterile token]

but if not, it doesnt be async

[ocean lion]

What should I do or replace?

[sterile token]

use DI

[wet breach]

that isn't true at all

you can have a method that spins up a thread to fetch DB stuff

[sterile token]

?di

[sterile token]

Hmn, exmaple please im dumb

[wet breach]

synchronized void getDBInfo() {
    Thread something = new Thread();
    //override run method put code in the run method, then call something.start() return db stuff etc.
}

[sterile token]

Hmn

Frost

I just realized there i a mongo-java-driver async

[wet breach]

you don't have to use the synchornized key word

but you might depending on how it is done and what is accessing it

[sterile token]

Im eeven dumber

[wet breach]

I don't use mongo so wouldn't know

[quaint mantle]

explain the synchronized keyword to me

[kind hatch]

I thought that keyword made the code run on the main thread. (If it's already on another one)c

[sterile token]

Allr dont worry frost

[wet breach]

synchronized will make everything else wait to run the method until it is done running for whatever called it first

very handy to use for things like lists in other threads

or when needing to access a list in another thread

[ocean lion]

    public static ColorNickname getInstance() { return instance; }

    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        instance = this;

I change it to this, still same error

[wet breach]

stop using statics

also read up on dependency injection as told up above

[ocean lion]

am I a static abuser

[wet breach]

Guide to dependency injection: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/using-dependency-injection/

[wet breach]

read that

[ocean lion]

But I dont understand, I have been using this method for configs for some time now

Never given me an error

[sterile token]

READ

[wet breach]

while true it is unnecessary in the way you are using it

singleton pattern isn't for to be used with everything

[sterile token]

If you dont read it carefully you wont understand it

[kind hatch]

There are many ways to do the same thing with code.
Only a handful will give you stability and reliability.
Normally the ones that follow the conventions

[wet breach]

in this instance

singleton pattern is screwing them over 😛

[kind hatch]

Static has a time and a place. However, for spigot plugin development, you will seldomly use it.

[wet breach]

they been told how to resolve it, they are just refusing to do it a different way which that is beyond the scope of this discord if they refuse to do what was stated 😛

[quaint mantle]

Can i use JDA with in Spigot?

So can i make something similar to DiscordSRV like that? with JDA though?

[kind hatch]

Yes

[quaint mantle]

like what im tryin to ask is can i combind jda and spigot into 1

[kind hatch]

Idk what you mean by combine, but you can definitely use the JDA API in a spigot plugin.

[quaint mantle]

yeah that's what im trying to say

thanks

[proper notch]

BTW discordsrv is made with jda

[sterile token]

Sorry for asking, but have learn the basics about java before starting with plugin?

[ocean lion]

No

[kind hatch]

Well you should.

?learnjava

[undone axle]

Here are some links to get you started on learning Java:

• https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-java
• https://www.sololearn.com/learning/1068
• https://www.learnjavaonline.org/
• https://programmingbydoing.com/
• https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/index.html

The last one is the only official one, however some of those concepts assume that you already know a bit about programming.

[ocean lion]

So that means you cant help me with my question or

[sterile token]

LMAO you shouldnt be doing plugins without being learned the basics of java

[ocean lion]

LMAO

I can do if I want to or?

[kind hatch]

It's not that we can't. It's that you won't understand what we are suggesting since you don't understand the underlying language.

[sterile token]

If you dont know basic java, its impossible to help because its like talking to you in chinese

[kind hatch]

You gotta learn to walk before you can run.

[ocean lion]

Great comparison. Java and chiense

chinese

It's just, it does not require me to learn java before just making some basic plugins. And the question still remains about the error, if you cant solve it or dont want to just say that instead

[kind hatch]

Except it does.

[winged anvil]

just do like codecademy course

i mean you still wont understand until you apply but

better than not having any idea

[sterile token]

if he dont want to learn it, the best is to go and do our things

[winged anvil]

word

[kind hatch]

Read the first 25 pages of the Java book by Oracle and so much will make sense.

[ornate patio]

How do you check if a BlockPos is reachable by an entity in NMS? This horse is programmed to go next to the nearest source of water but the idiot just faces the wall. If I get rid of the water behind the wall the horse will go to the water farther away instead

[sterile token]

Agree with you. It the best way of learning basic java

[ocean lion]

Must be pretty hard for you Verano

[sterile token]

He?

[golden turret]

noooooooooooooooooo

I always read "Veterano"

[ocean lion]

You read a book and now you are educated yet when someone who knows less asks for help with a matter he is not familiar with, you laugh

[wet breach]

you will need to make your own pathfinding to detect such things

[ornate patio]

I've already created my own pathfinder goal and everything, just wondering if theres a built in method to see if a block is reachable

[winged anvil]

wow

[wet breach]

not that I am aware of

[winged anvil]

https://www.codecademy.com/courses/learn-java/lessons/hello-world-java/exercises/introduction-to-java

[wet breach]

hence you will need to make your own thing to detect that

[winged anvil]

take a week and do it

[ornate patio]

damn

[sterile token]

I dont know why people nowadays are like crystals lmao

You just say something and they get mad

[ocean lion]

Crystals?

[kind hatch]

I think he meant snowflake.

[ocean lion]

Obviously

[golden turret]

Hey guys. I'm using Player#setSpectatorTarget to set the player to spectate another player.
The problem is that the target is a passenger of another entity and when I set the player to spectate, it simply refuses to spectate and starts to teleport the player instead of spectating.
It only spectates if I dismount the entity. I can't show a lot because I have NDA

[sterile token]

NDA?

[kind hatch]

Real NDA that you signed or verbal agreement?

[golden turret]

real nda

[kind hatch]

Non Disclosure Agreement

[sterile token]

Oh ok

A contract basically

[golden turret]

yea

If it wasn't the NDA I would record a small video showing the problem

[ocean lion]

A contract basically he says

Pff

[kind hatch]

Tbh, as long as you don't give out details about the project, you should be fine. When it comes to code, it'll depend on the NDA, but you could likely get away with sharing what you have here.

Or take that specific part and make a standalone plugin out of it.

[golden turret]

Well, it happens literally in the place the NDA says to not leak

[winged anvil]

then how people gonna help

[golden turret]

I said what is the problem

[kind hatch]

Well it's a little hard to take an explanation at face value without seeing the code.

[sterile token]

Maybe just do it via DM, how it would know that so share some part of code to someone

[golden turret]

The code is literally I setting the player to spectate another player

but the target is mounted in another entity

So instead of spectating, the player starts to teleport each x blocks to the target

[kind hatch]

Maybe try making the player spectate the target first, then have them mount the entity.
Or if they are already mounted, dismount them, add the player, then remount them.

[golden turret]

🤔

lets see

[fathom cobalt]

is it a common problem not to be able to find anything with ClassGraph in Spigot plugins?

[wet breach]

depends how you are using it

but just because something says it can do something, doesn't necessarily mean it actually can. Big difference between saying such things and actually testing such things

it isn't feasible to test all possible scenarios 😉

much easier to say it can though

[fathom cobalt]

well, I suspect that Spigot might not load all the classes inside my plugin into the classpath

namely the classes that aren't referenced anywhere apart from reflection

[wet breach]

that is because it doesn't. It loads the main class you specified in the plugin.yml hence why it is necessary to specify it there

[fathom cobalt]

yeah, that makes sense

[wet breach]

and then from there, it is on your plugin to load the classes it uses

[golden turret]

No way it worked!!!! Thanks

[fathom cobalt]

that's what I'm trying to do, but I'm not entirely sure how I can in this scenario

[golden turret]

Now, how can I make a chunk not to unload like the spawn chunk?

[fathom cobalt]

would I have to look up the classes from the JAR files myself? assuming I even can

[wet breach]

depends on how you are trying to do something really. I haven't used classgraph before, and it makes some bold claims in everything it says it can do. Obviously it has never encountered a custom class path loader though

so...it seems it can't do everything 😛

[fathom cobalt]

yeah, but the same story goes for trying Class.forName(...) as well

but that again also does make sense

because afaik, neither of these implementations will scan another JAR file than that of the running application(?)

[wet breach]

can't find something if it doesn't get loading onto the path until it is needed

as I said, only thing that spigot loads is the main class specified by the plugin.yml. everything else loaded is done by the plugin not spigot itself

[fathom cobalt]

yeah, so when I do a new instance of these same classes, it'd work fine

[wet breach]

yep

[fathom cobalt]

but then all of my boilerplate abstraction stuff will be useless

[wet breach]

well I can't help you with that problem 😛

[restive mango]

What is the denominator of entity velocity? Is it meters per second? Is it meters per 500ms? Per 100ms?

[fathom cobalt]

so I need to find a way for Spigot to register unreferenced classes somehow

or another way of doing it perhaps
