[humble tulip]

also using reflection with remapped is a pain

[smoky oak]

?reflection

[small current]

fully server side

[humble tulip]

ye ik there is the screamingsandals thing

PURPLE TREEs

[smoky oak]

can someone link me something that explains reflection

[humble tulip]

what does grass look like?

[agile anvil]

Accessing a library without importing it

[smoky oak]

how'd that be an issue?

[humble tulip]

reflection is really used to access either inaccesible stuff or stuff u dont wanna depend on at compile time

like a private field in a class

[humble tulip]

useful for nms where the package name used to change as well as field names

[smoky oak]

yea hence why i said use remapped

[humble tulip]

so u dont need to import every version of spigot into ur ide

[smoky oak]

remapped reflection should not change on other versions

[humble tulip]

it does?

obfuscated names change from version to version

[smoky oak]

the reason i use remapped is because it stays mostly the same

at least afaik

[agile anvil]

It leads to some shitty stuff https://github.com/RomainStorai/HoloBroadcast/blob/main/src/main/java/net/mystipvp/holobroadcast/nms/ReflectionCache.java

[humble tulip]

and even if you use remapped and build for one version only, sometimes, you wanna change a variable, but there is no method to do so and the variable in not public. so u use reflection, make the field accesible and set it

[smoky oak]

this is without using remapped, correct?

[humble tulip]

remapped leads to having a multimodule project with a module for every version that had a change

for sure it's useful

but sometimes, u cant avoid reflection/its just easier to go the way of reflection

[smoky oak]

ill just think about it once im told i can only do x with nms

[crude loom]

What's the difference between PlayerInteractAtEntityEvent and PlayerInteractEntityEvent?

[rough drift]

how?

no texture pack?

oh wait, biome color?

[humble tulip]

setting biome color

ye

like here

[rough drift]

lemme just

[humble tulip]

how does grass look?

[small current]

not changed grass color

[humble tulip]

but isnt grass color determined by biome color?

[rough drift]

yesn't

it's determined by warmth iirc

[humble tulip]

mc is weird man

[humble tulip]

ah makes sense

so why tf are trees purple

[rough drift]

they use biome color

oh wait

grass uses grass color iirc

there

close enough

[humble tulip]

what site is that?

[rough drift]

mc wiki

https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Color#:~:text=Grass colors are biome-dependent,grass colormap%2C with some exceptions.

can you dm me the whole class

Making it a nms free implementation

Using reflection

[small current]

thats the code

[rough drift]

the whole class, idk the imports n stuff

[small current]

you just need a player object
and a location

[rough drift]

I am aware

actually just a World

and a location

[small current]

yes and its in a cmd class

[rough drift]

the imports?

i need those

[small current]

import net.minecraft.world.level.biome.BiomeFog;

[rough drift]

what abt craft world

[rough drift]

ty

[harsh totem]

I have this code which is supposed to turn mobs to fish if they're shot by an arrow with customModelData of 500. when I shoot at an unliving entity the entity disappears with the arrow and no errors are being sent in console. I checked and the first if statement in hit() is false which means that no lines like entity.remove() are being read by the plugin when I shoot at an unliving entity so I really don't know what can cause it. any ideas?

[grim oak]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/intellij-debug-your-plugin/ So using this can i edit a plugin while the server is running?

[harsh totem]

does anyone have any idea?

[grim oak]

But i would have to keep transferring the plugin from the build output to the server folder

[solid cargo]

ok serious question: how can i whitelist players in bulk. i aint typing /whitelist add player 15725325 times

[grim oak]

fair enough, but then reloading the plugin wont help right? reloading it only reload the config

mine doesnt lmao

when i run the reload command its just programmed to reload the config

[solid cargo]

how tho :(

[grim oak]

there is no plugin.reload() function

lol im not gonna use plugman

i hear that it can break mechanics on your server

[chrome beacon]

^ this is true

[harsh totem]

I deleted this entire code and it still happens

;-;

[harsh totem]

this

[old cloud]

Hi, what is more performant?

1. Having a repeating task running every second, checking if something is expired (would include a loop with multiple if statements each second)
   or
2. Having (maybe a lot) active delayed tasks, that just wait a amount of time and then just run one operation?

[humble tulip]

wait around

actually it depends

[old cloud]

yea

Are all tasks on one scheduler in one thread?

[harsh totem]

I unregistered each event one by one and it still happens.

I removed the plugin and it still happens

wtf?

there are no other plugins in the server

yes

@quaint mantle I deleted all of the plugins in the server

and the boat disappears when I shoot at it

[solid cargo]

ok ig this works

thats for testing btw

[harsh totem]

every unliving entity

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

i got it

it was disappearing because i was in creative.
if im in survival the boat/whatever drops on the floor

its a game mechanic

nothing is wrong

[solid cargo]

@quaint mantle you meant something like that?

okay thanks :)

[grim oak]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/intellij-debug-your-plugin/ So using this can i edit a plugin while the server is running?

[delicate lynx]

you have to set a "mysql_native_password" on mysql 8

[humble tulip]

If you just want to get rid of the error, at the cost of risking the security of the project (e.g. it's just a personal project or dev environment), go with @Pras's answer -- 
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password' 
and then 
flush privileges

Have u tried ^^

It's clearly a problem with mysql not your code

I think that's ur fix tbh

getSlot gets the slot of the clicked inv

Getrawslot pretends the top and bottom inv is one

I'm not smart enf to know

Did u flush privileges?

Same error?

Yea

root@localhost

Wait what were u using

Try running the plugin on 1.18

They error is that the client is outdated

Maybe 1.8 had an older driver or sumn idk

Buildtools and ur plugin

Shouldn't be hard

Mc server?

Or client

Check forge ig

Maybe u can fork forge

Never worked with client

[mortal hare]

more progress on inventory ui lib im working on

dynamic titles

no flicker

[ivory sleet]

you dont create a new inventory I presume

[mortal hare]

yes but involves some packet trickery (i borrowed this feature from deluxe menus actually)

[ivory sleet]

ah okay

This event will fire when a player is finishing consuming an item (food, potion, milk bucket).

[compact haven]

because you never use the super user on any system/application for anything other than management

and you're also sharing the super user with other applications that don't need such permissions

[humble tulip]

Doesn't matter to u tho since it's to test

[outer wadi]

To which packet and what field should I write to when opening a sign gui? I'm kinda lost here

[tender shard]

what version?

[tender shard]

ClientboundOpenSignEditorPacket

takes a BlockPos as constructor parameter

[iron glade]

keep me updated on this one

[humble tulip]

What happens if the blockpos is not a sign?

[echo basalt]

probably crashes the client or doesn't let you sign

[humble tulip]

Or if it is is there a regular sign event?

[echo basalt]

likely doesn't let you sign

[modest garnet]

hey can someone help i have source files as a zip but i need them put as a jar

can anyone do it for me

[humble tulip]

Unzip?

And import to intellij

[outer wadi]

yes but what method do i use?

[echo basalt]

setVelocity with such speed

it takes in an x, y, z vector

that's the new velocity in blocks/second iirc

[echo basalt]

For lists

Collections.singletonList for a single element list

or Arrays.asList

not sure about map, I usually just call put methods

[lost matrix]

Either through guava or by creating an anonymous class

[echo basalt]

something like

Map<String, Integer> whatever = new HashMap<>() {{
  put("potato", 123);
}};

I remember you could do something like that

not sure about semicolon positioning

yeah

but worky

[lost matrix]

*But dont overdo it. Creating constants like this is ok but dont use it if it gets instantiated too often.

[echo basalt]

probably makes an anonymous class or something stupid

[lost matrix]

But usually classes that contain data structures shouldnt be instantiated too often anyways.

[echo basalt]

can be any object

[lost matrix]

Sure

But that should either be a multimap or the list should be encapsulated in a new class.
Nesting raw collections is bad practice.

[ornate patio]

@lost matrix any progress on that pathfinding algorithm

if nots its fine lmao

[kind hatch]

I'm currently designing a new file structure that I'm wanting to use for my language system. A sort of "language pack" if you would. I'd appreciate some feedback on it.

Here's an example of the directory structure.

.
├── locale_en
│   ├── default_messages
│   │   ├── default_guis_en.yml
│   │   └── default_locale_en.yml
│   ├── holiday_overrides
│   │   └── christmas_override_en.yml
│   ├── locale_en.yml
│   └── locale_guis_en.yml
└── locale_pl
    ├── default_messages
    │   ├── default_guis_pl.yml
    │   └── default_locale_pl.yml
    ├── holiday_overrides
    │   └── christmas_override_pl.yml
    ├── locale_guis_pl.yml
    └── locale_pl.yml

In this example, I have taken a different approach to the standard one language file most plugins use. There is still a general language file, but it only contains the general messages and error messages. Everything else that can be categorized would be put in a new file. In this case, language options for GUI items are put into a separate file.

Now, I believe that this will offer more benefits than drawbacks.

Benefits
+ Modularity
If a server owner disables a part of the plugin's functionality, lets say the GUIs for instance, the GUI locale files wouldn't need to be loaded, saving some memory. Compared to the standard language file, all of those extra sections would just be taking up unnecessary ram. (I know it probably isn't much, but hey, just because you have an abundance of RAM lying around is no excuse to use it unnecessarily!)

+ Expandability
If I wanted to add any future subdirectories, it would be extremely easy.

+ You don't have to delete files to get an updated version from a plugin update. (At least not as often)
In this case, the only files that would are the ones in the default_messages folder because this folder would be used to grab default/backup values incase of mismatched files.
Unless something new is added to an existing file, you can set it and forget it. Say for instance, you are using development builds of a plugin and the dev is changing GUIs pretty often. You wouldn't want to have to delete your language file every single time just to get some new sections. Not to mention all of the work you would have to do to re-update every section with the proper colors and messages.

Drawbacks
- Makes it a little more time consuming to setup.
Files like the holiday overrides section would likely have different color formatting and different holiday themed messages. Adding more work for the initial setup.

- Sacrifices some User Friendliness for Functionality.
it would be a little daunting to look at for the first time. As developers, this probably seems pretty straightforward, however, for normal server owners, they are used to the convenience of things being in one file. It wouldn't cause plugin functionality to break if they only modified one file, but would look incomplete if a server owner thought that they only needed to modify the general file.

- Harder to implement into code.
With an infinite expandable system like this, some hard coded methods would need to be made. As this system is intended for translations, sections need to be mapped to proper message values. Things like the plugin prefix which is located in the general language file would need to be used in every other file. Essentially coupling the general language file to every other one.
Also, dealing with multiple files could be a little problematic if they aren't managed properly.

These drawbacks aren't the biggest thing in the world, but Ease of Use and Ease of Understanding is nothing but a benefit to the end user. It would be nice if this system could be made a little friendlier, but with the way the files are laid out and labeled, it should hopefully be as straightforward as possible.

That's what I think at least, but what do you guys think?

[summer scroll]

Holy

[crude loom]

How can I make the custom name of an entity always appear? (and not only when the player gets close enough)

[sage dragon]

Isn't that Client Side?

[summer scroll]

Why?

[crude loom]

I'm making irongolems in a bedwars plugin and I want them to always show the name so the player will know what team they belong to

[summer scroll]

It has to be client side, no?

[crude loom]

I don't know? 😅

[summer scroll]

Maybe something to do with spigot.yml

[vital mica]

Entity#setCustomNameVisible(Boolean)

[sage dragon]

Pretty sure that's if it is visible at all 🤔

[earnest forum]

yes

they mean it will show when you aren't hovering over them

like how a player's would

i think by default the functionality is like name tagging a zombie where u have to be looking at them for the name to appear

[vital mica]

Oh yea, this works with items and armorstands only i guess, sorry

But you may spawn an invisible armorstand and set the name of the armorstand

[earnest forum]

actually maybe it might default it to always visible

[charred pond]

Can someone help me figure this issue out? : https://youtu.be/f5Yr_tqvvYE

[harsh totem]

what's the name of the particle ambient_entity_effect in spigot?

nvm found it

[somber hull]

So I have an old project that I made a while back. And I wanna redo all the insides. What’s the best way to decide what to remove?

Should I remove it all at once

And redo

Or take it one section at a time

Maybe make a separate branch in GitHub to mess with?

Maybe I’m overthinking

It is 2 am

[humble tulip]

How big is it?

[bold solstice]

Hello guys, Quick question. How do I register 2 events from 2 different classes?

one class is the main one

[humble tulip]

The same way u register one event

[bold solstice]

and the second is a different one imploments listener

[humble tulip]

Just twice

Paste ur code

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[lost matrix]

Create an instance of your Listener classes and register them in your onEnable()

[bold solstice]

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

but if I do it twice it cancels the first one

[lost matrix]

Wut?

First of all: You should not let your JavaPlugin class implement Listener.

[bold solstice]

why?(just curious)

[humble tulip]

Doesn't this work?

[lost matrix]

Its just dirty coding. There are clean code principles like separation of concerns and single responsibility principle that
define how to properly structure code. And creating new classes for new purposes is much cleaner than clumping everything together.

[bold solstice]

yea I started this plugin when I was a complete beginner but now I feel like most of my code is a mess, I never divided my code into classes. I just used the main class

[bold solstice]

yep doesn't work

[lost matrix]

What do you mean by that?

?notworking

[undone axle]

"Does not working" is a useless statement. Please describe what exactly is not working, what you expect it to do, and what actually happens. If you get any console errors, also ?paste the entire stacktrace.

[bold solstice]

xDDDD

anyways

basically, if I do both of them it cancels the manager.registerEvents(this ,this);

[lost matrix]

Nope. Add a sysout in both your listener methods (at the beginning) that print out "A" and "B" and you will see that both are still fired.

[bold solstice]

wdym?

[lost matrix]

What part specifically do you not understand?

[bold solstice]

whats a sysout

I never heard of it

[lost matrix]

Console log. You can use the logger or for quick debugging purpuses you can just call std::out
System.out.prinln("")

[bold solstice]

ah

sadly I do not understand why it doesn't work

[lost matrix]

Well. Did you make sure both listeners are called by adding a debug message?

[bold solstice]

so I just go and take one random event from the main class and put it in there

like System.out blabla

and then I also do the same in the event in the other class

just making sure I understood

[lost matrix]

Sure. This will show you that both listener methods are fired regardless of other registered listeners.

[bold solstice]

I run the program and.. nothing happens it shows me a lot of messages but I dont see A or B

[lost matrix]

Which means nothing works at all? Well is your plugin even enabled?

Is it listed (and green) if you type in /pl

[bold solstice]

oh wait u mean in minecraft im an idiot

[lost matrix]

yes. to see which plugins are enabled

[bold solstice]

wait

my build messed up just a second

When i try to build it now gives me an erro for no reason

[lost matrix]

Errors have a reason 99% of the time

What is it?

[bold solstice]

cannot find symbol class EnumClass

and it does that for all of my enums

[lost matrix]

Sounds like your project has no jdk to build on.
What IDE are you using? And are you using maven/gradle?

[bold solstice]

maven

I think it has something to do with me trying to run the program itself

[lost matrix]

You cant "run" a plugin obviously...

[bold solstice]

yea ok I fixed it

I had to redebug it because I messed the maven thing up because me be stupid

[lost matrix]

Alright. Btw how do you compile?

[bold solstice]

build

build artifacts

[lost matrix]

This completely ignores your pom.xml and you could as well not use maven at all.

[lost matrix]

You can use this tab to build projects with maven.
The "all in one" cycle is just install.

[lost matrix]

Also if you are using maven then you should never add external jars or other dependencies to your project
because thats what maven is for.

[bold solstice]

oh ok

[tender shard]

wdym?

[bold solstice]

Alright so I reloaded

it doesn't do the enable because it says there is an error

because I did the register events twice idk

[humble tulip]

We need to see the error to help

[misty current]

is there a method to make a completable future throw an eventual caught exception without doing it myself?

[ivory sleet]

Uh wym?

[lost matrix]

The problem is that you dont know if there are other appendixes being added later on until you finalize the chain

[ivory sleet]

Like CF wraps any runtime exception with a CompletionException and determines the stage as a failed stage iirc

[misty current]

not sure if i understand it correctly, but as an example whenComplete takes a biconsumer as an argument with a throwable

and i guess the throwable object is an eventual exception that was caught while completing the future or similar

[ivory sleet]

Yes

But you also have CompletionStage::exceptionally

And fyi using get/join will throw the eventual exception that was caught during computation

[misty current]

aight thanks

[smoky oak]

assuming a player has a shield in each hand, how can i check which shield is raised? Normally it'd be the left one but theres that left hand option

[lost matrix]

What you can do is create a method in a utility class ("ExceptionUtils" for example)

  public static <T extends Throwable> T delegatePrint(T throwable) {
    throwable.printStackTrace();
    return throwable;
  }

This allows a shorter form

CompletableFuture.failedFuture(new RuntimeException("Test")).exceptionally(ExceptionUtils::delegatePrint);

[misty current]

oke thanks

[lost matrix]

check both hands and see which one is raised.

[misty current]

btw i've just noticed that vault uses doubles to represent player's balances

[lost matrix]

weak

[misty current]

isn't that bad because of floating point precision?

[smoky oak]

if your economy has so much inflation that you get precision errors you've got different problems

[misty current]

my economy doesn't exist yet but i'm wondering if the numbers are close to billions will you get noticeable precision errors

[smoky oak]

its got sixteen decimal points precision

so no

[lost matrix]

For currency you still have a decent precision of at least 6 decimal places after the dot if your number has 60 zeros

[misty current]

wow

[lost matrix]

hm?

[misty current]

i thought the precision was worse

[smoky oak]

googled it

said sixteen points precision

[lost matrix]

The precision worsens the bigger your number is

IEEE 754

[smoky oak]

its still got sixteen decimal numbers precision

eleven exponent bits and fifty two fraction bits

[lost matrix]

1.000000000000000000000023 will be more precise than
254,532,545,123.000000000000000000000023

[misty current]

i just need 2 numbers after the dot and i'm not making op prison economy so no 20 digit balance

so it should not be a problem

[lost matrix]

Then dont fret

[lost matrix]

Well it will be more accurate. Not precise.

[misty current]

also another issue with vault is that there are no separate methods to distinguish between removing money and transfering money

[lost matrix]

Do you use other plugins on your server which you didnt write?

[misty current]

most probably i won't

i was planning on implementing vault eco but i've already given up on the idea

[lost matrix]

Then why bother using vault. Just create your own economy.

[misty current]

also because of methods with player names as strings

oh and also because i need to retrieve data from a database for offline players

[agile anvil]

You can do all of that easily actually

[lost matrix]

Thats one of the biggest drawbacks of vault. No async integration.

[agile anvil]

Vault is getting pretty old right now

[misty current]

yep, what im doing now is i've taken most of the vault methods i think are useful for my eco and making sync and async ones

[misty current]

iirc it's been out since 2011/2012

yeah 2011

[smoky oak]

where? Player#isHandRaised just gives a boolean if it is

also

checking main and off hand doesnt tell me if the off hand is the right or left one

[lost matrix]

Right or left is relative because the player can change this in their own settings.
And you cant raise two shields. So if a shield is raised and the player has a shield
in his main hand, then this shield is the raised one.

[smoky oak]

im aware of that but i do need to know if the raised shield is in the right or left hand

im doing geometry with it

[agile anvil]

You can't

Or ask the player

[smoky oak]

nms it is

[agile anvil]

I don't know any packets that refers about it

I think it's juste client side design

But do you guys know someone that change the main hand?

Oh wait, does it change the apparence of other players ?

[smoky oak]

login packet

main/off hand

0x7

[agile anvil]

So just listen to that packet and save it

Then when the player use a shield you know which side

[lost matrix]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/HumanEntity.html#getMainHand()

HumanEntity#getMainHand() -> LEFT | RIGHT

[smoky oak]

huh well then

eh whats the full <dependency> entry again for the spigot api?

[mortal hare]

unpopular opinion i hate rounded corner design boom

rounded corners are more harder to compute than square ones, also they seem not uniform to computer's screen, at least on computer screens we don't have rounded corners

[agile anvil]

Feels way smoother, squared corners bring hardness

[ivory sleet]

Rounded corners help us to follow lines

So by user experience its a little bit more appealing

[smoky oak]

uh i cant find how to check if the player is blocking with the main hand or off hand

[lost matrix]

If blocking -> if main hand has shield : its the main heand -> if not : its the offhand

[smoky oak]

well yes but two shields

im trying to cover that specific edge case

[lost matrix]

If blocking -> if main hand has shield : its the main heand -> if not : its the offhand

[smoky oak]

ah right

k

boolean swap = player.getMainHand() == MainHand.LEFT;
boolean shieldLeft = true;
if(player.getInventory().getItemInMainHand().getType() == Material.SHIELD)
  shieldLeft = false;
if(swap)
  shieldLeft = !shieldLeft;

sounds about right?

welp i have a completely different issue now. I cant seem to find anything online for the shield hitbox except 'visually it's dependent on the texture pack', and a mention that its handled by the server. Does anyone know how i can get the hitbox the server uses for calculating if a projectile is blocked or not?

[lost matrix]

  public enum Side {
    LEFT, RIGHT, NONE
  }
  
  public static Side getRaisedSide(Player player) {
    if(!player.isHandRaised()) {
      return Side.NONE;
    }
    boolean invert = player.getMainHand() == MainHand.LEFT;
    if(player.getInventory().getItemInMainHand().getType() == Material.SHIELD) {
      return invert ? Side.LEFT : Side.RIGHT;
    } else {
      return invert ? Side.RIGHT : Side.LEFT;
    }
  }

[smoky oak]

uh i guess... seems like it does about the same, i have a israised check before

[lost matrix]

You need to dig for that

[smoky oak]

urgh

see what im trying to do is fix the shield bug

but without access to that hitbox i can do squat

you recon it needs nms?

[lost matrix]

What is "the shield bug"?

[smoky oak]

if you block a projectile that was already shot

it does not get blocked

so if someone shoots you from fifty blocks away and you see that arrow flying at you and you block

you still get shot

[lost matrix]

No this sounds ridiculously stupid. Is this a thing in the newest version still?

[smoky oak]

yes

im fairly sure at least

one sec

yup its still a thing

so about that hitbox?

[quaint mantle]

is there a better way to do this?

private void setupListeners() {
        final Listener[] listeners = new Listener[]{new PlayerBuild(), new PlayerChat(), new PlayerDamage(), new PlayerJoin(), new PlayerQuit(), new WeatherChange()};
        Arrays.stream(listeners).forEach(listener -> getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(listener, this));
    }```

[lost matrix]

Whats wrong with just doing one call per instance?
Anyways:

    List.of(
            new XListener(),
            new YListener(),
            new ZListener()
    ).forEach(listener -> Bukkit.getPluginManager().registerEvents(listener, this));

[quaint mantle]

I want to do it in one line

[lost matrix]

Why?

[quaint mantle]

more clean

[ivory sleet]

[lost matrix]

No its literally way dirtier.

You actual troll

List.of(new XListener(), new YListener(), new ZListener()).forEach(listener -> Bukkit.getPluginManager().registerEvents(listener, this));

What ive posted is technically one line

[vocal cloud]

Use a reflection library and it'll be 1 line

[ivory sleet]

You definitely beyond all programmers do not want to have it in one line

[quaint mantle]

What is the best way to do it then?

[ivory sleet]

As long as you can eliminate as many illusions as possible it’s pretty good

[lost matrix]

    PluginManager pluginManager = Bukkit.getPluginManager();
    pluginManager.registerEvents(new XListener(), this);
    pluginManager.registerEvents(new YListener(), this);
    pluginManager.registerEvents(new ZListener(), this);

There is nothing wrong with this one.

CraftBukkit wrapps nms. Usually you get the wrapped nms object by calling getHandle()

[tender shard]

wtf is EntityLiving

is that some kind of un-remapped NMS class?

[earnest forum]

nms version of livingentity i think

you cannot cast a bukkit entity to NMS entity

CraftEntity.getHandle() returns the NMS entity

ah ok

[mortal hare]

can you call super class externally

like i have overriden the method

inside second method

but i need to execute baseclass method

ik this is possible with cpp due to virtual functions

but i dont know about java

nvm

what I hypothetically thought would work, not gonna

[smoky oak]

the only part where you can call super is if its the first instruction in the constructor

[smoky oak]

so apparantly this is intended behaviour

why

[lost matrix]

You can create a new method

public void exposedStuff() {
  super.internalStuff();
}

[visual tide]

wat

[smoky oak]

isBlocking() is a condition for deflecting an arrow

however

there is a delay between isRising and isBlocking returning true (start of raising shield to having the shield up)

the idiotic part is that the animation is only about 30% of the delay

so you think you raised your shield

but actually its still 'being readied'

[visual tide]

theres a reopened bug report on the bug tracker

https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-100949

[smoky oak]

thats intentional... the game is coded to work like that

the vertical component of that 'related' bug with the upwards facing shield is there too

they remove y from the vector representing view direction

as a result you get hit

[visual tide]

weird

is it still indexing

restart ide maybe

[tardy delta]

<project xlmns = blablabama and other stuff >

[harsh totem]

is there any way to detect crossbow load?

[tender shard]

you could listen to playerinteractevent, then schedule a repeating runnable to check whether Player#getItemInUse is not null and once it's null again, check if their main hand item has an arrow loaded

dirty workaround though lol

[harsh totem]

hmm

i have another idea.
it there a way to make the event EntityShootBowEvent execute only once when the bow is a multishot crossbow?

[tender shard]

you could create a Set<UUID> with the player's UUID once an arrow is shot, and then clear that entry in the next tick, and ignore every event called for a shooter that's in the set

[harsh totem]

i'll try

[pallid forge]

I have a question, how do you select one string out of a list from a config.yml? is there a place I can learn how to do that?

randomly select one string out of a list

[lost matrix]

You basically read the entire list into memory and then select a string out of there.

You should not read configs often in general. Load everything into classes and fields when the server starts and use this data instead of configs.

            playerRegistry.getOrLoadPlayer(to).whenComplete((cosmicTo, throwable1) -> {
                transferBalance(cosmicFrom, cosmicTo, amount);
            });
        });

        return future;
    }

how can I make this cleaner?

ie making the two completable futures run at the same time and when both are completed, invoke transferBalance()

[lost matrix]

Why do you use "whenComplete" but ignoring the throwable?

Could also just use thenAccept

But other than that it looks ok. Just wondering when you are saving the data again.
And also what happens if this method is called too fast. Because this could lead to stale data if you dont use any locks.

currencies should always be done transaction based

[misty current]

useful to know

[misty current]

player profiles (named CosmicPlayer) are stored in a map and when i call getOrLoadPlayer, if the player profile is already loaded, it will be retrieved from the map, else it will be loaded from a database and put in the map

[lost matrix]

And you only access data from this single map? So there are no other minecraft instances interacting with playerdata?

i can use the packet, but what do i write to it or what do i need to set text?

You can pass an executor to your CompletableFuture.

how can I do that? In the constructor?

[dark harness]

But with this i cant check the broken block type.. This returns Air

[hasty prawn]

Use getItems()

getBlock() is air because the block is already broken

[dark harness]

But i can use the same methods like getitems in BlockBreakEvent where the gettype works

[hasty prawn]

Well, no, because that wouldn't take into account stuff like fortune.

[dark harness]

Oooof

[lost matrix]

Btw you can take a look at caffeine if you want

  private final AsyncLoadingCache<UUID, CosmicPlayer> cache = Caffeine.newBuilder()
          .expireAfterAccess(45, TimeUnit.MINUTES)
          .removalListener(this::saveToDatabase)
          .buildAsync(this::loadFromDatabase);
  
  private CosmicPlayer loadFromDatabase(UUID key) {
    // load data from DB
  }

  private void saveToDatabase(UUID key, CosmicPlayer player, RemovalCause cause) {
    // Save data to DB
  }

  public CompletableFuture<CosmicPlayer> getOrLoad(UUID key) {
    return this.cache.get(key);
  }

Its a hashmap backed by a loader and writer

[lost matrix]

You need to get the broken BlockData. Not the current block. The items are dropped after the block was already broken. So its always air.

[ivory sleet]

Might wanna pass an executor but myess caffeine is so yummy :3

[lost matrix]

Yeah specifying an executor and a Timer on top which is fed by the executor is better practice for this

[misty current]

interesting

[lost matrix]

By passing an executor i mean this:

  private final ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(4);

  private CompletableFuture<CosmicPlayer> loadFromDBAsync(UUID key) {
    return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(() -> loadFromDBSync(key), executorService);
  }

  private CosmicPlayer loadFromDBSync(UUID key) {
    // Access DB
  }

[misty current]

If I execute the syncCommands method, could it freeze the server if it is done when shutting down?

[smoky oak]

what does it do

[lost matrix]

Where is that method even from?

[sage dragon]

I'm executing it via Reflections from the CraftServer class.

I'm using it to register my commands to tab completion.

(Which are registered dynamically)

Problem is that I want to clean up when my plugin is disabled, but sometimes the plugin disables because of a server shutdown

(Sometimes my plugin freezes the server when shutting down)

[smoky oak]

isnt that basically the same thing?

It should be, but I wasn't able to freeze the server with a reload or by disabling it, yet.

How do I get the vault colored prefix, because it is just "&4Owner Wihy" and I want it to be "(red)Owner Wihy"

[lost matrix]

Sure. You can compose futures.

  public CompletableFuture<Void> transfer(UUID from, UUID to, double amount) {
    CompletableFuture<CosmicPlayer> fromStage = getPlayer(from);
    CompletableFuture<CosmicPlayer> toStage = getPlayer(to);
    return fromStage.thenAcceptBoth(toStage, (fromPlayer, toPlayer) -> transfer(fromPlayer, toPlayer, amount));
  }
  
  private void transfer(CosmicPlayer from, CosmicPlayer to, double amount) {
    // transfer
  }

  private CompletableFuture<CosmicPlayer> getPlayer(UUID key) {
    // fetch player
  }

[lost matrix]

If it has an '&' color encoding then you could just call ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes()

[misty current]

so this will only run when both futures are completed won't it

[lost matrix]

Yes

[misty current]

kk thanks a lot

[south prawn]

Can somebody help me

[lost matrix]

You can also have something returned. This is then a combination of those two futures to another future of a different type like a result

  public CompletableFuture<TransactionResult> transfer(UUID from, UUID to, double amount) {
    CompletableFuture<CosmicPlayer> fromStage = getPlayer(from);
    CompletableFuture<CosmicPlayer> toStage = getPlayer(to);
    return fromStage.thenCombine(toStage, (fromPlayer, toPlayer) -> transfer(fromPlayer, toPlayer, amount));
  }

  private TransactionResult transfer(CosmicPlayer from, CosmicPlayer to, double amount) {
    // transfer
  }

It was a long time ago and it was jnativehook not jda

it seems that logback is the only way

i was adding my own handler to the logger

how to use Hex Colors?
1.18.1
This is my current code but it just returns the Hex Code

private static final Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("#[a-fA-F0-9]{6}");
public static String getColor(String msg){
    if(Bukkit.getVersion().contains("1.16")){
        Matcher match = pattern.matcher(msg);
        while(match.find()){
            String color = msg.substring(match.start(),match.end());
            msg = msg.replace(color, ChatColor.of(color) + "");
            match = pattern.matcher(msg);
        }
    }
    return ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&',msg);
}

[humble tulip]

Think u need chatcolr char before every char of the hex code

[twilit roost]

oh nooo

[humble tulip]

I could be wrong

Not sure

Mfnalex has something in his utils

U can check his github

https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/JeffLib/blob/master/core/src/main/java/de/jeff_media/jefflib/TextUtils.java

[twilit roost]

thx

[humble tulip]

Why would that work?

Hey, anyone knows a way to display something on top of th head of a player BUT to only certain player.
Exemple :

[humble tulip]

Share code

Ohh

Nvm

[humble tulip]

Ur using armorstands i assume?

[pallid forge]

quick question, how would you detect a player death that isnt a player? to detect player to player death im using
p instanceof Player && killer instanceof Player
but how would i do if the killer is not player? (this is just simple java i dont know i think lol)

[steel swan]

i am not doing anything i am asking how to do it cuz honnestly i have no idea

[mortal hare]

Armorstands wouldnt work in this example

what you need are packets

[steel swan]

So

[mortal hare]

you need to send packet to that player

whom you would like to display nametag

are you talking about nametags?

[steel swan]

create an armor stand that will follow a player, and only show it to certain players

@mortal hare yeah that should work

lemme test

[mortal hare]

that's not easy, but I have something like this created but that is old and broken

it requires more than that since you need to handle all the cases

e.g moving to dimension

[sacred mountain]

not spigot, but would this work?

[dark harness]

Can i get the Name from the Dropped Item in the players language?

[humble tulip]

Hm why won't armorstands work

I dont think he's talking abt a prefix

[subtle folio]

armor stands and packets to hide it from certain players would be best solution

[twilit roost]

any clues why it adds 001 ?

           int newLvl = (getRenownLevel(p))+1;
           setRenownLevel(p,newLvl);
           LvlAnnouncer.announceRenown(p,newLvl);

public static void announceRenown(Player p, int lvlTo){
    p.sendTitle(ColorUtils.hex(Colors.RENOWN_UP.toString())+"Renown Level Up!",ColorUtils.hex(Colors.GOLD_COLOR.toString())+"You are now Renown Level " + lvlTo + "!");
}

[ivory sleet]

[twilit roost]

oh

[twilit roost]

it adding to a text

[steel swan]

so ok i figured out a few things about earlier but i=now i m stuck : how can i make an armor stand invisible to certain players

(or the oposite)

like only show it to some players

[twilit roost]

its a int
so im just adding 1 to the int

[sterile token]

Hi i have a question, how i can call the method PaginatedMenu#getPage(index) ? Knowing that im tracking players as Map<UUID, InventoryMenu>. Where InventoryMenu is the super class of PaginatedMenu.

Atm i have this method: InventoryMenu getMenu(UUID uuid);
And method getPage(index) is not in the super class

[dark harness]

Can i get the LocalizedName with BlockDropItemEvent from the dropped ingot?
Sry don't wanted to ping

[lost matrix]

Only way is by using packets

[sacred mountain]

bump lol

[chrome beacon]

Spigot has hideEntity api now iirc

[humble tulip]

cant u use player.hideEntity?

[subtle folio]

deprecated iirc

[humble tulip]

Yeah but it maybe does the same packet trickery internally

[sterile token]

I would be really thankfull if someone help

[steel swan]

imma try to use packets

[lost matrix]

Which json library is this?

[humble tulip]

And you probably don't have to reupdate it on world change

[chrome beacon]

Draft api might still work

[steel swan]

any tutorials on how to do it? cuz i have no idea how

[lost matrix]

ProtocolLib. There might be some tutorials for this

[sacred mountain]

json simple

[humble tulip]

7 smile won't player.hideEntity work?

[sacred mountain]

com.googlecode

[humble tulip]

U can also use gson

[sterile token]

"It should be PaginatedMenu extends InventoryMenu, not PaginatedMenu implements Menu" Do you remember you told me that? But now im stucked trying to call methods from the class that extends InventoryMenu

Let me check

[humble tulip]

Why won't player.hideEntity work?

[sterile token]

Its deprecated

[humble tulip]

And?

[sterile token]

You should not use depreated things

If someone use depretaed thing in most cases will not get help

[chrome beacon]

It's draft api. You can give it a try

[humble tulip]

It's draft api

Doesn't that mean it's there to be added in the future?

[sterile token]

Oh lmao no one help :/

Maybe i open a thread hahaha

[humble tulip]

Cast it?

Do an instanceof check and cast it

[steel swan]

so to use PacketPlayOutEntityDestroy and CraftPlayer for instance what do i need to import?

[sterile token]

me?

Its not possible to do it without casting it?

[humble tulip]

Well you can't run a method from another class without casting no

Alternatively, you can make the singlepaged one always return the single page no matter the int requested

[steel swan]

@sterile token i implemented ProtocolLib but still can't use PacketPlayOutEntityDestroy

nvm sorry

[iron palm]

yo ik that this is not related to spigot api really but i can't find the problem seriously so i've decided to ask here.
Im having problem with SQLite/MySQL commands which throws a SQLException
org.sqlite.SQLiteException: [SQLITE_ERROR] SQL error or missing database (unrecognized token: "574144a0")

    public static String CREATE_TABLE = "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS players (uuid CHAR(36) PRIMARY KEY,balance DOUBLE, deaths INT, kills INT, class STRING)";
    public static String FIND = "SELECT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM players WHERE uuid =uid)";
    public static String INSERT_INTO = "INSERT OR IGNORE INTO players(uuid,balance,deaths,kills,class) VALUES(?,?,?,?,?)";
    public static String UPDATE = "UPDATE players SET balance =?,deaths =?,kills =?,class =? WHERE uuid =?";

this is all of my commands and it throws the error on finding a data...
any idea what should i do?
the code that throws me the error:

    public DwarvRes getResultOf(UUID uuid) {
        Statement statement = null;
        String FIND_TABLE = "SELECT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM players WHERE uuid ="+uuid+")";
        ResultSet res = null;
        try {
            statement = connection.createStatement();
            assert statement != null;
            res = statement.executeQuery(FIND_TABLE);
        } catch (SQLException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return new DwarvRes(res);
    }

[sterile token]

That why i prefer mongo

Its pretty much simply

And you dont get ilnesses caused of mysql shit commands

[sterile token]

Hmn sintaxis is wrong

[quiet ice]

And that is why I do not use any database engines at all

[sterile token]

You dont do: "SELECT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM players WHERE uuid ="+uuid+")"

You should use:

"SELECT * FROM players WHRE uuid="+uuid+""

Also is not okay using the uuid="+uuid+""

Its recommend to use:

PreparedStatement statement = new PreparedStatement("SELECT * FROM players WHERE uuid=?");
statement.setString(0, uuid);

If im not wrong

[worldly ingot]

This is why I use nothing but raw server memory

Sometimes when I'm feeling bold, I just don't care about saving any data at all. Players can just re-apply their settings every time they log in or switch servers

[iron palm]

alr letme try these

btw i found that select exists prevents from sqlexception

[waxen plinth]

That's pretty risky, memory could get its bits flipped by cosmic rays

Better to pause all server activity to prompt the player for their choice anytime a choice needs to be made

[worldly ingot]

+1

[sterile token]

Maybe "new PreparedStatement" is wrong, just search on google how to use prepared statement

Althought mongo has shits too

He get annoyed when im telling him to add a codec for Location, because the class doesnt have native types (String, int, double, boolean) instead the class have Boolean, Integer

Haha

Database in general are a problem

[worldly ingot]

If you're wanting to create a PreparedStatement, use Connection#prepareStatement()

[eternal oxide]

they are not a problem, just another thing to learn

[sterile token]

that thing i couldnt remember if was "new PreparedStatement" or how you tell him

It had happen 1y since las time i touched Mysql

Any recommendations for building a menu api?

[sterile token]

How would you do it, to being able to create normal menus and paginated menus?

[ornate patio]

i have a really simple math problem but its not really working in game-

this will run every tick right

new BukkitRunnable() {
    @Override
    public void run() {
        for (SuperiorHorse horse : superiorHorses) {
            ComfortabilityStat.tick(horse);
        }
    }
}.runTaskTimer(SuperiorSteed.getInstance(), 1, 1);

[waxen plinth]

BukkitRunnable 😒

[sterile token]

Oh please use ?di its not recommend to use singleton

[waxen plinth]

Here

[ornate patio]

i was told to use this a long time ago lmao

[iron palm]

im still getting that stupid error
org.sqlite.SQLiteException: [SQLITE_ERROR] SQL error or missing database (unrecognized token: "97a2")
the only thing that ik from this error is that "97a2" is a part of my UUID

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

[sterile token]

Oh not its active

[ornate patio]

i know what dependency injection is-

[sterile token]

So why you dont use it?

[ornate patio]

what does that have to do with a bukkit runnable

[sterile token]

Not bukkit runnable, use DI for java in general

[waxen plinth]

Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimer(plugin, () -> superiorHorses.forEach(ComfortabilityStat::tick), 1, 1);```

:)

[ornate patio]

i do..

but that doesnt have anything to do with the bukkit runnable stuff lmao

[sterile token]

I know but we are giving advices

[ornate patio]

where in my code does it show that im not using dependency injection

[ornate patio]

ty 🙏

[sterile token]

Redempt could know that im still ith the manu fact

[iron palm]

oh fixed with a prepared statement nvm

[waxen plinth]

What does this even mean

[ornate patio]

anyways

this runs every tick right

[waxen plinth]

Yes

[ornate patio]

i'm trying to add 0.01 to the "comfortability" stat to the horse every minute if the player is standing next to it

[sterile token]

Asking if you remember that 2 weeks ago you help me with my menu api, and im couldnt end it yet

[waxen plinth]

That's not a good way to do it then

[ornate patio]

so I simply add .01 / 60 / 20 every tick

[waxen plinth]

Loop over players, get nearby horses, and add the stat

[ornate patio]

it also needs to decrease

[waxen plinth]

Rather than looping over every horse and checking for nearby players

[ornate patio]

if a player is not next to it

[waxen plinth]

Oh

In that case you should store timestamps so you can calculate the stat on demand

[ornate patio]

the thing is that theres a ton of factors that is constantly altering the stat

it'll be a pain to set up timestamps like that

[waxen plinth]

Tick is fine then I guess

Set the task timer to run every 20 * 60 ticks

Leave it as 20 * 60, not 1200

It's more explicit about intent

[ornate patio]

theres other things that needs to be done to the horse every tick tho

[waxen plinth]

Ok then schedule another task for that

[ornate patio]

like every tick theres 5 functions that needs to be run on the horse every tick

[iron palm]

thanks a lot btw.
that error was busying my mind for some days. and I had no idea why that's happening

[waxen plinth]

Then schedule a task for those

[ornate patio]

a seperate task for each one?

isnt that inneficient

[waxen plinth]

And a separate task that runs every 60 seconds

No, 2 tasks

[ornate patio]

oh

i guess

[waxen plinth]

Though 6 tasks wouldn't make much of a difference

[sterile token]

Your welcome my dear if have more issues with Mysql just ask it here and ping me

[waxen plinth]

Slightly more memory usage and slightly more overhead

[ornate patio]

anyways this isn't even adding 0.01 every minute somehow lmao

whatever ill create a new task for every 60 seconds

[waxen plinth]

Could be floating point errors

[ornate patio]

doubles have 16 decimals places tho

the result is less than 16 digits

i guess floating point errors could still do something

[humble tulip]

Aren't your horses custom?

Override the tick method and make sure you call the super method then do ur custom stuff that ubwanna run each tick

Actually it depends

On what ur doing each tick

[ornate patio]

yeah but i also wanna minimize nms

[humble tulip]

What u wanna do each tick?

[ornate patio]

also i have a structured setup

[ornate patio]

many many things

[ornate patio]

I have a class called SuperiorHorse, which acts as a wrapper for both the bukkit entity and the nms entity

so I sometimes need to loop over the wrappers

[ornate patio]

its a whole bunch of stat updating and player interactions and stuff like that

[pallid forge]

Hey, so all I wanna do is when a command is run, flip a boolean.

    public static boolean ctfstartBool;
    @Override
    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command command, String label, String[] args) {
        ctfstartBool = !ctfstartBool;
        if (ctfstartBool = true) {
            sender.sendMessage("CTFSTART = TRUE");
        }
        if (ctfstartBool = false) {
            sender.sendMessage("CTFSTART = FALSE");
        }
        return true;
    }
}```

The command works, but all it will give me is true, no matter how many times I run it. Obviously, i did something wrong lol. Any idea what?

the command works, but it just gives true no matter what

[eternal oxide]

== to compare bool. you are setting it in your if check

[pallid forge]

oh lolol

that makes sense lol

[eternal oxide]

Better to use java if (ctfstartBool) { sender.sendMessage("CTFSTART = TRUE"); } else { sender.sendMessage("CTFSTART = FALSE"); }

How to set Inventory Title to BaseComponent?

[gritty urchin]

As per this image

@eternal oxide

[twilit roost]

pseudocode
1: get 2 locations where you want those portal to be
2: get Block from those locations
3: setType to portal

[gritty urchin]

done that, portals seem to place 1 block apart

[twilit roost]

can I get ur code?

?paste

not looking forward for using any API

soo should I get NMS version of the inventory and set the name to BaseComponent ?
Same with entities?

[gritty urchin]

   Location loc2 = new Location(Bukkit.getWorld("world"), 55, 68, 284);
   loc1.getBlock().setType(Material.PORTAL);
   loc2.getBlock().setType(Material.PORTAL);```

[twilit roost]

🤦
the paste was for u to paste into that website

nvm

[gritty urchin]

yeh ik

its easier to just paste in chat

[chrome beacon]

Yes

[gritty urchin]

it works for other blocks

but not for portal

[humble tulip]

Can u send a ss?

?

Of the portals

[gritty urchin]

of it not working?

They dont place at all

[humble tulip]

So what's this then?

[gritty urchin]

when I use this code

they place 1 block apart

loc.add(0, 2, 0).getBlock().setType(Material.PORTAL);```

[humble tulip]

Ofc it does

loc.add modifys the loc itself

[gritty urchin]

yes I know that

[humble tulip]

Then add 1 in the second line

[gritty urchin]

yeah doesnt work

nothing appearing

[humble tulip]

If the y is 0 initially, you add 1 and set the block at y=1 to portal and then add 2 so y is now 3 and sets to portal

[gritty urchin]

yeah i understand

no portal produced
