heres the method, and the other screenshot is me printing it once with the method and once using sysout

#

i never said you asked your question wrong, i was just suspicious that you needed help with something that could be simplified

sacred mountain Jul 9, 2022, 9:32 PM

#

so it does support color but idk how to check that

glossy scroll Jul 9, 2022, 9:32 PM

#

so how its done in craftbukkit is

#

Terminal terminal = ((CraftServer) getServer()).getReader().getTerminal();

#

terminal.isAnsiSupported()

erm

generic java

standalone program

ah

sacred mountain Jul 9, 2022, 9:33 PM

#

yup

#

just asking as there don't seem to be any minecraft related questions rn

glossy scroll Jul 9, 2022, 9:34 PM

#

its no issue

#

im not familiar with that

#

CB uses jline

#

maybe you could look into that?

sacred mountain Jul 9, 2022, 9:35 PM

#

ill give it a go

glossy scroll Jul 9, 2022, 9:36 PM

#

@sacred mountain looks like people on that stack exchange thread says it doesnt work on windows

#

they also recommend jansi

#

(which is what i said)

#

im not quite sure what the difference between jline and jansi is

#

i believe jansi might be more lightweight and directly useful for what you need

#

though im unsure

wet breach Jul 9, 2022, 9:37 PM

#

you need to first figure out what console is being ran. Not all consoles will report if they support color codes and if they do which ones. You will have to maintain your own list also this might be helpful for you that I created
https://github.com/frostalf-games/ConsoleColors

wet breach Jul 9, 2022, 9:37 PM

#

glossy scroll im not quite sure what the difference between jline and jansi is

Jline contains Jansi

#

but it also supports commands being sent

#

Jansi is just the console itself

glossy scroll Jul 9, 2022, 9:38 PM

#

Also, on windows, sometimes the terminal supports colors and doesnt use them

#

(basically what frostalf said)

#

then people have to use something called jansiPassthrough

#

which forces color into their console

#

benefit of using Jansi is that you have access to stuff like Ansi.Color.BLACK

wet breach Jul 9, 2022, 9:39 PM

#

or can use my project above 🙂

glossy scroll Jul 9, 2022, 9:39 PM

#

true

wet breach Jul 9, 2022, 9:39 PM

#

it maps hex to terminal colors

#

and vice versa

#

I think it even does RGB

#

anyways, I originally created it for someone else and haven't really had any other use for it XD

no it is for the basic ANSI colors if I recall but feel free to test it out because I can't really say I remember that specifically lol

#

ANSI is almost supported on every console with an exception of a few, but what is common between them all is the basic colors being supported where as it is iffy on the extended color support

#

but you can try it out like I said 🙂

worse that happens is the extended color support isn't there, in which case I can update it some time to support such things

not entirely sure, but I just know that most programs that involve colors just keep a list of the console types

#

and from this list knows if colors are supported and whether or not extended colors work

#

because at minimum almost every console has some kind of command that lets you see the console type

If I’m gonna make two versions of a plug-in

#

A premium and a free version

#

What’s the best way to do that through GitHub?

#

Make two separate branches?

waxen plinth Jul 9, 2022, 10:23 PM

#

Sure

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 10:23 PM

#

Is there a way to push certain commits to two branches?

#

Or would I have to go into the other branch and update it manually

#

You could PR I guess

waxen plinth Jul 9, 2022, 10:24 PM

#

somber hull Is there a way to push certain commits to two branches?

Just rebase one branch onto the other

quiet ice Jul 9, 2022, 10:24 PM

#

Keeping two branches won't work long

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 10:24 PM

#

Btw why not just make one premium version

waxen plinth Jul 9, 2022, 10:24 PM

#

Commit to the free branch and rebase that onto the premium branch

quiet ice Jul 9, 2022, 10:24 PM

#

Unless the changes are very contained

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 10:25 PM

#

I’d say go freemium and don’t have a free plugin

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 10:25 PM

Oh awesome

waxen plinth Jul 9, 2022, 10:25 PM

If you keep the premium features entirety in separate files it should work fine

I know how to do that cause I’ve seen that button before

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 10:25 PM

I’m still learning good code practice

waxen plinth Jul 9, 2022, 10:25 PM

#

Well

#

Come to think of it

#

You could use one branch

#

And have a gradle subproject for the premium version

#

Which would shade the base version into its final artifact

quiet ice Jul 9, 2022, 10:26 PM

#

That would be more ideal really

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 10:26 PM

#

How would I go about doing that?

#

quiet ice Jul 9, 2022, 10:27 PM

#

At worst ServiceLoader can be used

If your premium module depends on your root/parent project then ye

Should

wet breach Jul 9, 2022, 11:00 PM

#

somber hull like the premium rules, ive read those like 4 times over

if you release a free plugin of your premium version, then the premium version must still be different from the free one otherwise you won't have a premium plugin

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:00 PM

And what if i want to have a seperate config?

ivory sleet Jul 9, 2022, 11:00 PM

Assuming you add it to your runtime classpath that is

Separate config?

wet breach Jul 9, 2022, 11:00 PM

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:03 PM

#

Ikr lmao

wet breach Jul 9, 2022, 11:03 PM

#

and most people don't have large enough projects to truly see the differences

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:03 PM

#

I switched to gradle

#

And its noticably slower

#

But its easier imo

wet breach Jul 9, 2022, 11:04 PM

#

well gradle is faster then maven in some circumstances, but you need super large projects to see it

#

for example, compiling firefox

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:04 PM

#

Idk, maybe its better for large projects but worse for small projects

#

anyway

#

If i want a seperate config file

#

For my premium version

#

Can i do that with the multiproject thing

wet breach Jul 9, 2022, 11:05 PM

#

I don't see why not

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:05 PM

#

How?

#

I would have to override the regular config

wet breach Jul 9, 2022, 11:05 PM

#

well I don't know how to do it with gradle, but with maven it is super easy

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:05 PM

#

IG i could just leave a section for premium settings in the config that does nothing unless you buy the premium version

#

Would make upgrading easier as the values are all there and you dont have to delete config

#

How do you guys like my path name lmao

#

So looooooooooooooooong

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:16 PM

#

I started with maven and migrated to Gradle so I know both. But the reason why I prefer it over maven because it is way more script like behavior rather than configuration

#

You can define methods and stuff to load

#

Since it uses groovy or kotlin dsl script

#

However, maven has a less steeper learning curve. Knowing both is important

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:21 PM

#

somber hull How do you guys like my path name lmao

The base of the package name seems incorrect. main.java should not be in your package. That should be part of the source directory

#

You have src/main/java as a directory

#

Then inside would be your package which would be me.silentprogram.etc

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:23 PM

#

paper viper You have src/main/java as a directory

lmao im stupid

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:23 PM

#

You should set maven source sets

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:24 PM

paper viper You should set maven source sets

#

BUt its very confusing and weird

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:24 PM

#

So what you should do is right click on the module and click new folder

#

Then src/main/java should pop up

#

Then inside of that use packages

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:25 PM

and it put a package

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:29 PM

Try deleting your src folder completely

And then creating a new folder in IntelliJ in the module

and did src/main/java

#

does it matter?

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:30 PM

Your package imports would be fucked

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:30 PM

#

Oh ok

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:30 PM

It would contain the main.Java

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:30 PM

Its not a capital J right?

#

restarting IJ

and removing a plugin that might be causing it

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:31 PM

I don’t think it’s a plugin

#

Wait

I know

#

Right click src folder, then click Unmarked Directeoy

#

Then Unmark as sources

#

Then right click on the Java folder

#

Then do Mark Directory

#

And click mark as sources directory

#

Sometimes IntelliJ messes it up for no reason

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:33 PM

#

maybe cause IJ is still starting up

#

but

only opption

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:33 PM

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:34 PM

question tho

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:37 PM

Make sure to create packages inside java folder

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:37 PM

#

So the way im doing this with the multiproject thing

#

Im not sure how im supposed to use classes from the premium module

#

Without a no class found error or smthng

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:38 PM

#

Let’s decide on your structure first

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:39 PM

#

Unless i have to use abstraction and interfaces and all that. But ive never had to work with that before

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:39 PM

#

We could have something like a common module

#

Then a premium and free module for each one

#

The common module would contain abstractions and perhaps classes used in both the premium and free plugin

#

Then the premium module would contain premium features, and the free module would contain free specific ones

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:40 PM

#

and the other options?

#

Ill probably do that

#

Just curious what else therer is

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:41 PM

#

I mean there is also a way where you could have your premium module depend on your free module because I’m assuming the premium version contains all the features in the free version but more

#

But that’s messier

#

And it’s not recommended

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:42 PM

#

Got it

#

But wouldnt the other one require you to repeat code?

#

Like have basically a copy on both of them

#

Or am i stupid

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:42 PM

#

Repeated code could be in the common module

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:42 PM

#

Ahj

#

Thats

#

yes

#

And then abstraction would be the other part of that correct?

#

Oh you know what, all the repeated code is what i have just finsihed

#

So now would be the perfect moment to set all thatg up

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:44 PM

#

somber hull And then abstraction would be the other part of that correct?

Yes

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:44 PM

#

paper viper Yes

Got it, imma start working on this. Ill lyk if i run into any problems

#

I have discord open on my other monitor

#

so im here

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:45 PM

#

I mean how I do it in my library is I have an API module (which contains 95% interfaces), then a main module (which contains implementation and uses the interfaces in the API module), and then a lib module which combines all the other modules with the main module.

#

The thing is that you aren’t doing a library but instead a normal plugin

#

So you could just combine the api module and common module together I guess because it’s not like you are developing an API too

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:46 PM

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:49 PM

somber hull Jul 9, 2022, 11:50 PM

would i have to name the packages the same thing? in both modules

paper viper Jul 9, 2022, 11:50 PM

You have to treat as if your free and premium module are different plugins completely, but sharing some common almost like “library” which would be the common module

paper viper > best one for queue for the players using redis

basically, there'll be 2 lobbies, and those lobbies will try to find the best server for that player, for example if i had 10 minigame servers, how would the server know that server A1 has a player in it, instead of sending to A2, i want it to send it to A1

Can i do that?

Why would i use interface over abstract class?

#

They seem to do the same thing but abstract does it better.

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 12:58 AM

#

Well theres a more technical definition

#

But you can implement more than one interface

#

You can not extend more than one class

#

Abstract classes usually mean you want to use a similar pattern/scheme defined in the parent class

#

Interfaces can be used for when you have different types that share something in common

somber hull Jul 10, 2022, 1:00 AM

Got it

Ok so i should be useing a abstract class here

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 1:01 AM

JavaPlugin is abstract

#

Interfaces cannot extend classes

Its the only way

my current method is find all the entities, if an entity is found in a chunk, put the chunk in a hashmap with 1, and continue this by adding 1 to all the chunks found

kind hatch Jul 10, 2022, 2:01 AM

#

shadow zinc I'm reading about something called callbacks, is that only for sql queries?

Callbacks are a programming paradigm. It can apply to more than just SQL.

Callbacks are most easily described in terms of the telephone system. A function call is analogous to calling someone on a telephone, asking her a question, getting an answer, and hanging up; adding a callback changes the analogy so that after asking her a question, you also give her your name and number so she can call you back with the answer.

at least they are consistent lol

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 2:12 AM

#

honestly my best guess is that they disabled CRLF in git or something

#

because it looks pretty well written

carmine nacelle Jul 10, 2022, 2:13 AM

#

probably a basic java thing but i havent had to do this before. I have a string: 1*!*2,2*!*3 I need to split at the comma AND at the *!*, so I need to get each item between the commas as an array so I can split it again. Basically the items separated by *!* are related and the comma separates the list.

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 2:14 AM

#

String.split?

carmine nacelle Jul 10, 2022, 2:14 AM

#

I need to get 1*!*2 so I can call array[0] to get the 1 and array[1] to get the 2.

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 2:14 AM

#

i cant help but feel that you're serializing something in a bad way

#

whats the end goal here

carmine nacelle Jul 10, 2022, 2:15 AM

#

storing a list in pdc.

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 2:15 AM

#

right so if its integers, your best bet is to use INTEGER_ARRAY

carmine nacelle Jul 10, 2022, 2:15 AM

#

which u cant do so i gotta use strings with manipulation.

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 2:16 AM

#

absolutely not, there are array data types

carmine nacelle Jul 10, 2022, 2:16 AM

#

extremely limited ones

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 2:16 AM

#

errr no

carmine nacelle Jul 10, 2022, 2:16 AM

#

theres 4 types

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 2:16 AM

#

1*!*2,2*!*3 what list is beng stored here

#

i need to understand this a bit better

#

whats the output

#

[1,2] and [2,3]?

carmine nacelle Jul 10, 2022, 2:17 AM

#

yes

#

then need to split that again

#

to reference the 1 and 2

#

then the 2 and 3

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 2:17 AM

#

alright so i have two suggestions

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:18 AM

#

https://paste.md-5.net/relijumixe.csOh lmao mongo is getting every day mad and mad

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 2:19 AM

#

use a byte output stream to serialize an object into an array of bytes that can be put into a BYTE_ARRAY data type
use PersistentDataContainer[] and store the arrays inside them

carmine nacelle Jul 10, 2022, 2:20 AM

#

i am using a persistentdatacontainer just not the arrayed version

glossy scroll Jul 10, 2022, 2:21 AM

#

honestly i would just go for option number 1

#

number 2 does require some nms/reflection

i store 3d arrays like that in PDC currently

someone experienced in python here who could help me?

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:37 AM

#

I got a bit experience

#

made a neural network that didnt work

#

ik ik, absolute genius

#

also

#

        if (world == null) {
            Chunks.getChunksWithMostEntities(10, result -> sendChatData(result, null, playerAsPlayer));
        } else {
            World finalWorld = world;
            Chunks.getChunksWithMostEntities(world, 10, result -> sendChatData(result, finalWorld, playerAsPlayer));
        }```

#

on the topic of java

#

how is this for asynchronous?

#

so chunks gets it asynchronously, and then it processes the data into json

#

when the world is null is finds all the chunks

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:39 AM

#

You could make use CompletableFuture

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:40 AM

#

maybe, if I knew how to and what even that is

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:40 AM

#

I recommend reading about it

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:41 AM

#

is it like javascript promises?

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:41 AM

#

I dont really know about js promises

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:41 AM

#

yeah, its a bit weird

#

Ik there is a part where the code continues on while it does other stuff, not threading tho

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:42 AM

#

I find this link

#

https://www.baeldung.com/java-completablefuture

Guide To CompletableFuture | Baeldung

Quick and practical guide to Java 8's CompletableFuture.

#

Maybe you can find a better one

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:42 AM

#

I found the docs

#

but eh

#

this looks more pleasant to read

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:43 AM

#

What looks more pleasant?

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:43 AM

#

what you sent me

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:43 AM

#

Oh ok

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:43 AM

#

also, this wont completely stop the server since its threading?

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:44 AM

#

I think that CompletableFuture allows you to catch a result after it finished the execution

paper viper Jul 10, 2022, 2:45 AM

#

Yes by the handle method

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:45 AM

#

I mean this is good for other applications that use java that aren't minecraft, but does it have any clear advantages over what I'm currently doing?

paper viper Jul 10, 2022, 2:45 AM

#

CompletableFuture is the go to thing for asynchronous

#

For normal Java

#

At least

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:46 AM

#

but for spigot?

paper viper Jul 10, 2022, 2:46 AM

#

I also use it over the scheduler

#

But it doesn’t matter

#

The scheduler uses CompletableFuture iirc

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:46 AM

#

shadow zinc ```java if (world == null) { Chunks.getChunksWithMostEntitie...

Is it that async?

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:46 AM

#

getchunks is

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:46 AM

#

Yeah spigot scheduler internally uses CompletableFuture

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:47 AM

#

so its more if I wanted to learn about how it all works and really understand?

#

not it really being anything worth using if I'm not bothered?

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:47 AM

#

I can explain async as simple as i understand it: it allow to do multiple operations at the same momment without each getting interfered

paper viper Jul 10, 2022, 2:47 AM

#

Well, I wouldn’t think of it like that attitude…

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:48 AM

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:48 AM

shadow zinc is it more efficient?

Spigot cheduler uses CompletableFuture so its the same thing

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:50 AM

Also you cannot use Async because your ass sings

Perhaps Together Java discord

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:50 AM

#

sterile token Also you cannot use Async because your ass sings

what?

brave sparrow Jul 10, 2022, 2:50 AM

#

One thing to note is that spigot async uses a pool of threads allocated by spigot, whereas in your example you’re able to use your own thread pool

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:51 AM

#

Alex

#

Explain him more about async

#

Im not so experienced

brave sparrow Jul 10, 2022, 2:51 AM

It doesn’t really matter, you can do either way

paper viper Jul 10, 2022, 2:51 AM

There’s not rlly much more to say tbh

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:51 AM

#

lol ik about enough async

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

Because as i have said you cannot use async because you want to use it. There are special things and momments when you need to use it

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

I did ask a bunch of people if I should use it

paper viper Jul 10, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

I mean this is an appropriate case

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:52 AM

#

yeah

#

see I asked to make sure

#

also I saw another plugin use it for the same reason

#

so I had reason

brave sparrow Jul 10, 2022, 2:53 AM

#

shadow zinc I did ask a bunch of people if I should use it

Use it for what

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:53 AM

#

I never said that you shouldnt be using async
You also should know when to use it and why

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:53 AM

#

scanning over chunks and finding the ones with the most entities

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:53 AM

#

sterile token 1. I never said that you shouldnt be using async 2. You also should know when to...

Ik, I understand what you are getting at

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:54 AM

#

In that case yes, its better to use it. Because while you are looping over the chunks the server get lagg or block the thread

brave sparrow Jul 10, 2022, 2:54 AM

#

As long as you’re able to iterate over the chunks asynchronously it’s fine

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:54 AM

#

well I actually use the entities to find the chunks

#

not the chunks to find the entities

#

to find the chunks

brave sparrow Jul 10, 2022, 2:55 AM

#

In reality you’re unlikely to have so many chunks where you’d experience a noticeable speed up from the multithreading

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:55 AM

#

Yeah, I also give the user an option to scan for a specific world

brave sparrow Jul 10, 2022, 2:55 AM

#

You might end up with more overhead from the threading than you save by taking it off the main thread

#

This doesn’t seem like a use case for async really

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:55 AM

#

so

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 2:56 AM

Oh lmao mongo is making me getting really mad. It only problems, problems and more problems

At most you’ll have what, a couple hundred chunks to check through

shadow zinc Jul 10, 2022, 2:56 AM

Looking at the documentation, port 27018 is technically one of the default ports. It looks like it's used for connection sharding.

#

Can we fix the other issue?

The one that the mongo code works perfect on 1.12 but no on 1.19

When it doesnt affect spigot things

#

SO im fucking annoyed with that

#

How the heck the same code doesnt work on 1 version but on the other yes

#

🤡

kind hatch Jul 10, 2022, 3:08 AM

#

It could come down to the version of Mongo that you are running. That 1.12 plugin could be running an older version of it while the 1.19 plugin is running something far newer. That could lead to versioning issues with what's currently being hosted on your machine.

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 3:09 AM

#

but the isue is with a codec

#

Because let say as i cannot use codec for location on mongo. I created my own class for parsing the locations

#

That works perfect on 1.12 but using the same code the codec on 1.19 doesnt work because it said that property x from vector contains 2 diff types

When im not using vector in the codec registations

😬

Yea, it's the same driver, but the implementation could be different between the versions. I'm not sure if it's included with spigot, but the mongo driver may have changed if it is included.

sterile token Jul 10, 2022, 3:16 AM

what?

Im using the same mongo driver and same StorageManager class

#

So MUST WORK

#

I dont know why it doesnt

Im thinking the spigot its having a code issue/bug or my IDE is bug

#

Sorry for being rude but im stressed

Because the storage manager and driver is the same so must work the code

I also never using Vector neither Location

#

Im grabbing the world name, x, y, z, yaw and pitch

#

And saving it on CLocation which then mongo save it on the claim object

#

I will search for you a example from db

#

As you can see i never saving anything which contains a Location

#

Because location internally uses a Vector, and vector gives the exception i sent on paste

#

{
  "cuboid": {
    "world": "world",
    "x1": 252,
    "x2": 260,

In that json location represent the CLocation object

#

Like that

It's not that I don't believe that, it's that your issue is coming from a codec issue. The codec likely changed based off the error.

org.bson.codecs.configuration.CodecConfigurationException: Property 'x' in Vector, has differing data types: TypeData{type=Integer} and TypeData{type=Double}.

So, something probably changed in the PojoCodec class that requires the data you input to be a bit more strict.

My bet is still on an issue with what version you are running vs what your projects are expecting. What version of mongo are you running on your machine? Do you have any other version installed? If so, are you sure that your servers are using the same one?

lost matrix Jul 10, 2022, 5:15 AM

#

lime moat Yeah, I'm sorry I have no idea 😅

If your array looks like this:

["some", "param", "other"]

And you try to get the 4th element with the index 3 (which does not exist)
Then the index you are requesting is outside of the bounds of the array.
The array has the bounds 0 and 2. And trying to access an element outside
of those bounds throws an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

Very logical and very descriptive

lime moat Jul 10, 2022, 5:16 AM

#

I see, so StringUtil.copyPartialMatches(args[1], Arrays.asList(COMMANDS2), completions); is trying to get something that doesn't exist?

lost matrix Jul 10, 2022, 5:18 AM

#

If a player starts typing a command

/command some param

Then you have only 2 params in the tab completion. ["some", "param"]
For every new letter the player writes, the event is fired again.

/command some param o
-> event with ["some", "param", "o"]

/command some param or
-> event with ["some", "param", "or"]

/command some param or
-> event with ["some", "param", "or"]

/command some param or n
-> event with ["some", "param", "or", "n"]

/command some param or no
-> event with ["some", "param", "or", "no"]

/command some param or not
-> event with ["some", "param", "or", "not"]

lime moat Jul 10, 2022, 5:19 AM

So, I would need to use something like if (args.length == 5) correct?

Basically checking if reset as it has 5 characters is the arg?

lost matrix Jul 10, 2022, 5:19 AM

And at the beginning your command looks like this:

/command

Which results in an empty [] array.
Accessing anything (even with the index 0) will throw an exception

Play around with StringUtil.copyPartialMatches and read the javadocs to find out what exactly this method does.
