@quartz gull

[quartz gull]

mk

hm

[tender shard]

i love gh copilot

[eternal oxide]

fiver will do the same thing

[supple elk]

I'm trying to store a location in a config file, have I done this correctly?

[eternal oxide]

no need to serialize teh vector just put "vector", vector

it will be serialized when its put in teh config

[supple elk]

oki

so how would I now store a list of these in a config file?

[granite burrow]

Is there a way to add a tab complete option to an already existing command on the server?

[eternal oxide]

config.set("positions", List<Positions>)

[supple elk]

and accessing like that?

[eternal oxide]

yes, but pass something other than an empty List

[supple elk]

yeah

otherwise I won't be storing anything

I've got a list of Locations

so now I need to turn all of them into positions

[eternal oxide]

just add a constructor to your Position which takes a Location

[supple elk]

I made a static method

[eternal oxide]

that works too

[supple elk]

cause it's a record, trying to make constructors was weird

saying they weren't canonical and must reference canonical constructors

but then it was saying the reference to this() must be the first statement

however that means I can't do anything else

is the use of static here ok?

[eternal oxide]

yes

[supple elk]

👍

[bold solstice]

im not sure, if I do structuremanager.Loadstructure("minecraft:structurethingy"); will it load it?

[eternal oxide]

if that is a valid structure, it will load it and return a Structure

Just using the NamespacedKey it mush have been previously registered

If it has not been loaded/registered you would use java structuremanager.Loadstructure(getStructureFile(newNamespacedKey("minecraft:structurethingy")));

[shadow zinc]

Why doesn't the event get called?

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

so im halting the server, saving the event and then calling it later

but it doesnt actually work

[eternal oxide]

Firing an event yourself will do nothing other than notify plugins that an event just happened which didn;t

[shadow zinc]

Well I tried recreating it myself and it didn't work

tried it async and nothing

[eternal oxide]

save the old and new current, then set those values on that specific block to trigger a new redstone event

[shadow zinc]

I did

little success

[eternal oxide]

no you raised an event

[shadow zinc]

this is my 10th attempt at this

[eternal oxide]

raising an event does nothing

[shadow zinc]

I've tried many other things before raising events

[eternal oxide]

getBlock

[shadow zinc]

okay, let me restore my code real quick and show you what I was doing

[eternal oxide]

getLocation and getOldCurrent, getNewCurrent.

[supple elk]

anyway I can check this cast? Or do I even need to

[eternal oxide]

store those

when you want to trigger it,

get teh block at that location, set old current, then a tick or two later, set new current

[eternal oxide]

Nope

[shadow zinc]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[supple elk]

no to which question?

[eternal oxide]

to both

[supple elk]

ok

[shadow zinc]

heres teh code https://paste.md-5.net/fufasoseca.java

[supple elk]

I will supress it then

[eternal oxide]

you never update the block blockState.update();

[shadow zinc]

k

as in never or never?

[eternal oxide]

This line blockState.getBlock().getState().update(true, false); wipes out any change you just made

[sweet pike]

why does player.openEnchanting(null, true); not do anything? i've been struggling on how to get a command-based enchanting GUI, much like if you did /workbench and you could open a crafting table

[shadow zinc]

k, well remember I tried 100 things before this, so thats why I started doing wacky stuff

[eternal oxide]

each BlockState is a snapshot of that Blocks data. Work on One snapshot and then push it back with .update

[shadow zinc]

so do use update?

[eternal oxide]

yes, but on the same BlockState you made changes to

Do not get a new BlockState

BlockState state = block.getState();
state.setBlockData(data);
state.update();```

[shadow zinc]

            for (BlockState blockState : cachedData.cachedRedstoneActivity.keySet()) {
                try {
                    org.bukkit.block.data.BlockData data = blockState.getBlockData();
                    if (data instanceof org.bukkit.block.data.Powerable) {
                        blockState.getBlock().setBlockData(data);
                        blockState.update(true);
                    } else if (data instanceof org.bukkit.block.data.AnaloguePowerable powerable) {
                        powerable.setPower(cachedData.cachedRedstoneActivity.get(blockState));
                        blockState.setBlockData(powerable);
                    }```

like that

top if

does jack

am I missing something?

[eternal oxide]

at the end of making changes you call update

[shadow zinc]

which is what am I doing?

[eternal oxide]

only in one part of your if statement

[shadow zinc]

oh wait

stop

errors

lots of errors

cant async apparently

k

let me not async

[eternal oxide]

nope, no async world changes

[shadow zinc]

someone told me to

so

technically its not my fault

omg it worked so well...

it was one pulse

[eternal oxide]

I saw a report a few days ago that force opening enchanting tables may be broken, but I may have missed a part of the convo

[shadow zinc]

why isn't this doing the right thing? java for (BlockState blockState : cachedData.cachedRedstoneActivity.keySet()) { try { org.bukkit.block.data.BlockData data = blockState.getBlockData(); if (data instanceof org.bukkit.block.data.Powerable) { ((Powerable) data).setPowered(cachedData.cachedRedstoneActivity.get(blockState)>0); blockState.getBlock().setBlockData(data); } else if (data instanceof org.bukkit.block.data.AnaloguePowerable powerable) { powerable.setPower(cachedData.cachedRedstoneActivity.get(blockState)); blockState.setBlockData(powerable); } blockState.update(true); } catch (NoClassDefFoundError e) { Logger.outdated(); } catch (Exception e) { throw new RuntimeException(e); } }

[eternal oxide]

You need an actual table at the location for it to correctly operate

Else teh logic is disconnected

[shadow zinc]

Looks like people are doing something similar, https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/custom-enchantments-in-enchanting-table.405471/

[eternal oxide]

They are using actual tables

[shadow zinc]

not actual tables

yeah whenever I use that language it never works

My current code is f*cked

[eternal oxide]

One sec let me open my IDE and check enchanting

[shadow zinc]

Is what I am doing too complicated and finicky to be done successfully?

[eternal oxide]

um, What exactly are you trying to do?

[shadow zinc]

Halt, stop all redstone activity

cease

then

any attempted redstone activity during that halting period is restored

[bold solstice]

I need help with loading a structure

[shadow zinc]

after the halt

the restoring part is the part that isn't working

my original code worked, but it messed up the timings

so i started experimenting with other methods, but that didnt work either

[eternal oxide]

to restore it should just be a case of making a single pule.

[shadow zinc]

for any case?

is that one solution fits all?

and one pulse would be done using a runnable?

set powered

then off

after a tick?

surely that would mess up other contraptions that don't fit what I am doing?

[eternal oxide]

You are going to have a nightmare accounting for every type of contraption

[shadow zinc]

yeah well everyone using my plugin is pissed

and its bloody optional feature

now im behind on my normal release schedule

[eternal oxide]

Shitty Microsft. Can;t login to minecraft

[shadow zinc]

god don't get me started on that

my entire school switched from google suite to microsoft

now instead of gdrive we got onedrive

outlook

its absurd

[earnest forum]

the share button on the word app doesnt even work

it just loads constantly

[shadow zinc]

I don't even use the app, I use the online version

running at 5 fps

[eternal oxide]

Oh no something went wrong. Play Demo!

Eff you MS I own multiple copies of MC

[shadow zinc]

boots up a cracked version

@eternal oxide Your one tick method works kinda

something it doubles the pulse

How can I avoid that?

[eternal oxide]

Yeah I can;t test shit, auth servers are effed

[shadow zinc]

Here is a straightforward question you might be able to help me with, how can I get the block that powered the block I am looking at and powering?

[eternal oxide]

that is not easy

[shadow zinc]

come on, should I just discontinue with feature?

[eternal oxide]

tree search of the area is the only way I know of

[shadow zinc]

thats not very efficient

[eternal oxide]

yes

[earnest forum]

is there a difference between BlockPlaceEvent#getBlock() and #getBlockPlaced()?

[eternal oxide]

Nothing by the looks

[lost matrix]

Nope. As the javadocs state: Just for clarification.

[shadow zinc]

How do I update a redstone block that is stuck?

like if a repeater is powered but not moving, I break the repeater after it and it works

[eternal oxide]

reduce or increase its charge

[shadow zinc]

how can I recreate that in code?

[shadow zinc]

can I update it without changing the charge?

[eternal oxide]

I've not tried

is the repeater actually locked?

ie https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/block/data/type/Repeater.html#isLocked()

[shadow zinc]

No

its just broken because I stopped it

I need to get it going again

[eternal oxide]

does that method return false though?

you can lock a repeater by applying a charge to its side

if its behaving as locked you can setLocked(false) to unlock it

else you have to change teh charge level

[fiery prairie]

yo, i have updated my config.yml in intellij, however when i build it and remove any files of my plugin on my server, it still generates the old config, help?

[eternal oxide]

refresh (F5) the project in IJ

[fiery prairie]

alright, thanks ill try it

[fiery prairie]

now i have only half of my config after installing the plugin on my server wtf is wrong with my plugin

[eternal oxide]

open teh jar with a compression util (7zip)

see what config.yml is in there

[fiery prairie]

its working

but on the server it isnt

[eternal oxide]

then your code is breaking it. probably setting somethign null and saving

[fiery prairie]

orr maybe visual studio doesnt seem to be able to update my config (cause thats what im using to view the config) ill try using a notepad

to open the config

nope still noithing

[eternal oxide]

if the config is correct in the jar but not on the server, its your code breaking it

[fiery prairie]

should i send the code?

[eternal oxide]

the only thing you should be doing with your config at startup is saveDefaultConfig();

[fiery prairie]

yea ik

the only other thing that manages the config is my custom reload command

[eternal oxide]

custom?

Plugin#reloadConfig()

[fiery prairie]

    public void reload(){
        reloadConfig();
        badwords = getConfig().getStringList("badwords");
    }```
```java
        } else if (command.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("cplus")) {
            Player p = (Player) sender;
            if (p.hasPermission("cplus.reload")) {

                reload();

                p.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "Reloaded the messages of ChatterPlus");
            }```

in the reload method i used that badwords thing to refresh a list too

[noble lantern]

deadass was about to post some long ass complicated function asking "Why is distance between always 0"

[opal juniper]

why all the atomic references

[noble lantern]

async pathfinder stuff IDE kept bitching at me and i was lazy

cause variables changed inside lambdas need to be atomic/final

[subtle folio]

atomic bomb

[noble lantern]

good idea

the npc will build a bomb underneath the players bed location

and on right click the NPC till run to the tnt and light it

[bold solstice]

I need help with loading a structure in a location can anyone please help me

[drowsy helm]

with schematics?

[eternal oxide]

ask a specific question

[drowsy helm]

very broad question

[bold solstice]

I just couldn't understand how it works

do I need to approach the StructureBlock class, structuremanager?, Structure

its so confusing

[eternal oxide]

StructureManager holds all loaded Strructures

You either use a loaded one, or you load one, OR you create one

Its probably easier if you tell us what you are trying to do

[reef lagoon]

b r u h

[eternal oxide]

requireNonNull does not stop things being null

[drowsy helm]

just use an if statement lol

requireNotNull is lazy

[reef lagoon]

k lol

[eternal oxide]

Pointless unless its in a unit test, just makes your code blow up earlier java public static <T> T requireNonNull(T obj) { if (obj == null) throw new NullPointerException(); return obj; }

[bold solstice]

im trying to switch an arena by using structures

sry for ping

[reef lagoon]

gonna do try & catch

[eternal oxide]

did you save teh arena?

[bold solstice]

yes I saved all the arenas I want

I just want to load them via code

[eternal oxide]

as Structures?

[bold solstice]

yes

[drowsy helm]

just use schematics

[eternal oxide]

then they correctly exist in your world folder?

Structures are a part of Spigot now

no need for schematics

[bold solstice]

I guess, I mean it lets me load it from the game

[eternal oxide]

so what issue are you having?

You get the Structure from the StructureManager and Structure#place

[bold solstice]

so does structuremanager#loadStructure is correct?

[eternal oxide]

You did just say you can load them

Yes you use load to load it/fetch it if already loaded

[opal wedge]

Hey, I want to prevent ladders from falling off the wall when the attached block breaks.

For this I tried the following code. The sout is also output to the console, but the blocks break despite the event.setCancelled(true);.

    @EventHandler
    public void onPhysic(BlockPhysicsEvent event) {
        if (event.getBlock().getType() == Material.LADDER) {
            event.setCancelled(true);
            System.out.println(event.getBlock());
        }
    }

Would anyone have an idea where the error could be?

[eternal oxide]

physics is not a break

[bold solstice]

so I do load, it returns a structure, and then I do place to the structure

[eternal oxide]

Oh you mean the ladder breaks

[opal wedge]

yeah

[eternal oxide]

I've not attempted to cancel a physic event to stop a break.

generally you fake the supported block breaking

[bold solstice]

is that correct?
manager.loadStructure(new File("world/generated/minecraft/structures/structure.nbt"))

[eternal oxide]

if that is your structure

and your world is called world

[bold solstice]

alright tysm

u helped me a ton

[pulsar path]

how to set the speed of a minecart?
not max speed, the speed its actually moved

[eternal oxide]

you could easier do java StructureManager#loadStructure(new NamespacedKey("minecraft", "structure"));

so long as you saved it with the name structure

[tender shard]

i love intellij's "block" selection or whatever it's called

[river oracle]

Mmmm doing this in vsc makes me happy too lol

It's so satisfying

[tender shard]

yeah I wish every application would have this D:

[eternal oxide]

ALT+SHIFT+A in eclipse

[pliant plover]

How can I summon an Iron Ingot? I#m trying to make a Dropper for a Bedwars game

[waxen plinth]

World#dropItem

[pliant plover]

It gives this Error: The method dropItem(Location, ItemStack) in the type World is not applicable for the arguments (Location, Material)

I typed: w.dropItem(Grau, Material.IRON_INGOT);

w is: World w = p.getWorld();

[eternal oxide]

Look at the error and what do you think it means?

[pliant plover]

but, how can I make it different?

[eternal oxide]

It tellsl you what its expecting and what you provided

[pliant plover]

I tried creating an Itemstack and it didn't work

[eternal oxide]

it wants an ItemStack and you gave it a Material

[pliant plover]

yeah, but how do I create an Itemstack, which isn't a Material?

[river oracle]

What

[pliant plover]

Or better said, how even do I create a ItemStack how I need it

[eternal oxide]

new ItemStack...

[noble lantern]

new ItemStack(Material, Int)

or just material if you only want 1

[river oracle]

Maybe your looking for fabric api or forge api for this project xD

[pliant plover]

doesn't work, error: The constructor ItemStack(Material, int) is undefined

[noble lantern]

either i forgot how bukkit works or your depending on a non spigot jar

[river oracle]

Problems

1. You have no idea what your doing
2. You likely imported the api incorrectly

1 Is the biggest issue imo

?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.

[pliant plover]

I imported: import net.minecraft.server.v1_8_R1.ItemStack;

[river oracle]

xD lmfao

[noble lantern]

yeah thats NMS

[river oracle]

This means he added the jar to his project instead if maven or gradlew

[noble lantern]

?1.8

[undone axle]

https://howoldisminecraft188.today/

[noble lantern]

You need to use the actual maven/gradle import for spigot api

server jar is not rly something you use

even for nms, we have remapped now

[pliant plover]

I thought because it said Inventory, its just for giving Players the Items...

[noble lantern]

I mean

you can

but its gonna be like

50 lines of code to do

vs 2 lines with bukkit api

[pliant plover]

oh

[river oracle]

Have fun Burchard

Bye

[pliant plover]

anyways, thank you both!

[noble lantern]

if you want an easy setup and use IntelliJ, lookup the minecraft development plugin for intellij

Then, new project -> minecraft tab

Will auto generate a blank template project for you

[opal wedge]

I have now worked out the following method to solve the above problem. However, the server hangs as a result.

    @EventHandler
    public void onPhysic(BlockPhysicsEvent event) {
        if (event.getBlock().getType() == Material.LADDER) {
            BlockFace facing = ((CraftLadder) event.getBlock().getBlockData()).getFacing();

            Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskLater(Main.getMain(), () -> {
                event.getBlock().setType(Material.LADDER);
                CraftLadder blockData = (CraftLadder) event.getBlock().getBlockData();
                blockData.setFacing(facing);
                event.getBlock().setBlockData(blockData);
            }, 1);
        }
    }

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

[eternal oxide]

you are generating a second physics event

recursion

[opal wedge]

hmm, can I avoid this somehow?

[eternal oxide]

event.getBlock().setType(Material.LADDER, false)

[opal wedge]

also for event.getBlock().setBlockData(blockData, false); ?

[eternal oxide]

yes

[opal wedge]

It worked, thank you

[pliant plover]

List loclist = pl.getConfig().getList("llist"); is this how I use something from another class?

[noble lantern]

No thats getting data from a ConfigFile

[pliant plover]

oh

[noble lantern]

Passing variables from class to class you want to use dependency injection

?di

[undone axle]

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

[eternal oxide]

If pl is a reference to your plugin class

[noble lantern]

^ Yeah you are referancing the getConfig() method of your main class doing that, forgot

[pliant plover]

so its Correct then?

private Main pl; this is pl

and this is the import of Main: import de.bedwars.main.Main;

But list gets this error: List is a raw type. References to generic type List<E> should be parameterized

[bold solstice]

Elgarl I still need help with the structure thing

structure.place(new Location(world, -18, -12, 40), false, StructureRotation.NONE, Mirror.NONE, 0, 0, new Random());

for some reason it does not load the structure

[vague swallow]

How can I get the first line of the item lore?

[noble lantern]

first check if the ItemMeta has lore, then get the lore with the index at 0

iirc ItemMeta#hasLore is a method

[vague swallow]

alright then I did right, thanks

[eternal oxide]

Do you have anything in your structure? How did you make it?

[bold solstice]

well

the structure spawns on a build

maybe thats the problem?

like

one structure is the arena but with barriers

and one is without

so I want to swich the one with the barriers by the one without

nvm

it worked

lol

[quaint mantle]

yo anyone can help me add multiple version support?

[severe marsh]

How can I load a world for uhc?

[hybrid spoke]

depends what you need

[quaint mantle]

so I made a 1.16.5 plugin but I want 2 add 1.8.8 version support

how do I do dat?

[fiery prairie]

Hey, any idea why my config.yml is cut in half after putting the plugin on my server? (If i open the jar file using zip, the config.yml inside it is correct)

[fiery prairie]

go to pom.xml and replace 1.16.5 at the bottom (in dependencies) with 1.8.8

[eternal oxide]

?paste your config.yml

[undone axle]

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

[quaint mantle]

I would do that but THE PLUGIN NEEDS TO BE 1.16

AHHH

[fiery prairie]

but like it has a part of code that doesn't work on 1.8.8?

cause in simple plugins setting 1.8.8 will make the plugin work from 1.8.8 to 1.19.1

[quaint mantle]

ya

I need 1.16

[quaint mantle]

how?

[fiery prairie]

that's how it works

[quaint mantle]

I mean

[fiery prairie]

unless you have a part of code that was invented in future versions of Minecraft

[quaint mantle]

how do I do that?

ye

[fiery prairie]

wait

[quaint mantle]

I do

[fiery prairie]

pom.xml
scroll down
add the repository below the spigotmc-repo

        <repository>
            <id>sonatype</id>
            <url>https://oss.sonatype.org/content/groups/public/</url>
        </repository> ```

and also wait

then go to dependencies at the bottom of pom.xml

and replace 1.16.5 with 1.8.8

and then if you use IntelliJ IDEA then right click the pom.xml file -> maven -> reload project

[vague swallow]

hey for some reason this is not working: p.getItemInHand().getItemMeta().getLore().set(0, "test"); does anyone have an idea why?

[fiery prairie]

Umm I will in around half an hour

[quaint mantle]

butt

the plugin

needs

to be 1.16!!

[eternal oxide]

If it NEEDS to be 1.16 you can;t support 1.8

[quaint mantle]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[buoyant viper]

getItemMeta returns a copy, u need to assign it to a variable and then call setItemMeta after

[quaint mantle]

oh well

I tried

[tender shard]

I'm already disgusted by myself for still supporting 1.14.1+ in some plugins

[buoyant viper]

like

var itemMeta = item.getItemMeta();
/** does stuff */
item.setItemMeta(itemMeta);```

[fiery prairie]

it only needs to if it throws errors after setting an old version, but if you set an old version and it doesn't throw any errors IT WILL WORK FOR BOTH 1.8 AND 1.16

old version in this message means 1.8

so does it throw an error after you set the dependency to 1.8?

[tender shard]

lol this is so stupid

then you cannot use ANY features that are 1.9 or newer

you couldnt check for offhand

cant use the PDC

can't use BlockDropItemEvent

[vague swallow]

p.getItemInHand().getLore().set(0, "test"); Didn't work either

[fiery prairie]

yea I'm just telling him how it works with SIMPLE plugins

[quaint mantle]

hm ill try

[vague swallow]

got it, ty

[buoyant viper]

not sure if u need to call like getLore/setLore also to change it but that might also be a requirement

[fiery prairie]

its long so it has to be a file since no more nitro no more character limit bypass

it only saves the messages after loading the plugin

[eternal oxide]

?paste thats what this is for <-

[undone axle]

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

[fiery prairie]

https://paste.md-5.net/ecoqeheban.makefile sorry

[eternal oxide]

now show me the broken config

[fiery prairie]

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

[eternal oxide]

have you tried it without the double line break?

[fiery prairie]

yea

[eternal oxide]

we'll need to see some code then, as just those files theres no reason for it to be cut off

its multiple entries

[fiery prairie]

alright be warned though, i keep everything in my main class xD

idk why

[eternal oxide]

god classes. I remember everyone used to write them

[fiery prairie]

https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/husinasuxa.java

oh its not paste.md-5 anymore

magic

[eternal oxide]

line 165, is not a good idea, you are accessing the config at instantiation before teh plugin is loaded

set it null there

and set it from teh config after you saveDefaultConfg() in onEnable

[fiery prairie]

thx ill try that

but there is also a chance that i magically did something or it is just a visual bug rn because the config appears full, im currently launching the server

wtf is wrong with this shit, i tried relaunching the server for the 18th time and now it magically generated the right config, one thing is wrong though

basically on the bottom of my code there is the playerchatasync event

its supposed to change the format of the message

it doesnt

nvm i forgot to do an if placeholderapi is null

[fleet comet]

imagine using multible classes-

[eternal oxide]

well probably because you have FIVE events

[fiery prairie]

ye lol who does that hehe

[fiery prairie]

yea possibly

i mean its a chat managing plugin

[fleet comet]

im the only one-

[eternal oxide]

one event is all you shoudl use here

[fiery prairie]

no were together in this club

[eternal oxide]

Or at different priorities

[fleet comet]

Yet i still rename apis to StuffManager instead of StuffAPI

[fiery prairie]

alright ill change that, thx

[eternal oxide]

set teh format early, then do chat later

[fiery prairie]

so i should set the priority higher?

[eternal oxide]

set format at Highest

[fiery prairie]

thank you!

[eternal oxide]

or High

Highest is mostly for permission plugins

[fleet comet]

is there anywhere on the server that i can ask people to help me make plugin cause solo dev is overrated

[fiery prairie]

general?

idk

[fleet comet]

oh yeah duh

or i can friend you cause your making a chat formatting plugin-

that was a question

[fiery prairie]

im not just making a chat formatting plugin, mostly a whole chat managing plugin

[fleet comet]

well i could use chat skills cause im horrible with that

just friend me cause i cant friend you

[fiery prairie]

umm so i didnt do the priorities yet, but i used the reload command which u can see in the code i sent, and it absolutely removed the chat formatting

any idea why?

[hybrid spoke]

in case you want people to contribute to your project, you need a project people can contribute to

and it have to be a cool project

[fleet comet]

well i have one\

dont know where to share it though

[fiery prairie]

spigotmc.org 🤔

or is that not what you mean xD

[hybrid spoke]

github

[fleet comet]

i mean here

its on github

[hybrid spoke]

general, verified, here

[fleet comet]

oh

Well, i'd greatly be thankful if any of y'all contributed to a new plugin called horizon essentials, its just better essentials. and its SO damn buggy and i need help lol https://github.com/horizonstudiosmc/horizonessentials

epic

i needa fix bstats lol

[fiery prairie]

i mean why would anyone need a second essentials though
or is it supposed to be a better version of it?

[eternal oxide]

"better"

[fiery prairie]

that's why I said "supposed to be"

[fiery prairie]

bump

[hybrid spoke]

it has a total of 2 commands and is full of bugs

how is it better

[fleet comet]

Not currently no

Tp is filly functional and it's better

Fully

[eternal oxide]

"better"

[fiery prairie]

btw isnt uploading things to github making it easier for people to copy your project?

[eternal oxide]

Your project has to be worth copying

[fleet comet]

Yep

[fiery prairie]

oh yeah makes sense

[fleet comet]

Mine isn't

Only thing that's better is tp

[fiery prairie]

i mean you still can copy anything by opening .jar as .zip

[vocal cloud]

Wait so everytime a player gets attacked it spawns a new scheduled executor?

[hybrid spoke]

its not

clearly

[vocal cloud]

Why not just have one main scheduled thread and store the combat time end in the hashmap

[fiery prairie]

why not use maven

[vocal cloud]

gradle > maven

[fiery prairie]

idk i rather use maven

[fleet comet]

I just added combat tagging

Haven't tested it for multiple players

And The request method check doesn't work

[tender shard]

gradle is maven on drugs. It's faster at compiling, but at what price?

[fiery prairie]

btw you know making better essentials is probably gonna take you or anyone a lifetime which equals death?

[vocal cloud]

It spawns a thread whenever someone attacks

That's pretty bad

Also the taskid gets overwritten so it won't even work properly

OOP was a mistake

[fleet comet]

That's why I need more people

[quiet ice]

Or just do the same as the madlad yesterday and use ANT

[fiery prairie]

https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/husinasuxa.java

why after using the reload command built-in my plugin the chat formatting no more works?

[hybrid spoke]

currently it sounds more like a "i need people to do it for me"

[vocal cloud]

^

[fiery prairie]

yea

[vocal cloud]

If you want people to contribute to a All Rights Reserved plugin you're going to need to do a bit more work

[hybrid spoke]

and to do better

[fiery prairie]

and not just say better

[hybrid spoke]

nobody wants to clean up your shit

all this static abuse

namings

[fleet comet]

Ima clean up my abuse firat

[vocal cloud]

No, first add a license

That's easy and you can do it in 5m

[fleet comet]

Wait. How

[hybrid spoke]

within github

[vocal cloud]

Want me to PR a license lmfao

[fleet comet]

Ohh

Mk

[fiery prairie]

bump again

[tender shard]

just made a very useful PR

[hybrid spoke]

?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.

[fiery prairie]

basically it gets back to vanilla chat formatting

[vocal cloud]

There you go I sent you a PR for a license

[fiery prairie]

so now i realised it only stops working after i actually change the formatting

[drowsy harness]

Best way to avoid a entity from going into a certain area?

[vocal cloud]

Depends on the entity but you could probably reset where it's going

?jd-s

[undone axle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot

[vocal cloud]

Might need NMS for that not sure

[quaint mantle]

https://pastebin.com/RJTjM4Mu im having an issue with my potions. The Material.valueOf(item) does returns the correct enumwhich is POTION but after setting its itemMeta im getting a SplashPotion. someone knows what im doing wrong here?

[vocal cloud]

Have you tried logging and seeing what's printing?

[quaint mantle]

yea and so far so good but ill add some more sout's hold on

[desert loom]

this line might be the issue

boolean isSplash = config.isBoolean(dataPath + ".splash");

isBoolean checks if the path is a boolean and in your case it always is

[echo basalt]

inject into pathfinders

[quaint mantle]

Oh dang i didn't notice that one! Big thanks. works heh

[upbeat pagoda]

Anyone know a good way to edit the crafting recipe for an item?
E.g replace the iron ingots in an iron pickaxe recipe to like maybe another item

I'm currently getting the recipe with this List<Recipe> recipe = getServer().getRecipesFor(new ItemStack(Material.IRON_PICKAXE)); but I don't know how to read the recipe

[drowsy harness]

So I would have to modify every pathfinding goal to make sure they avoid this area?

[echo basalt]

you can just modify the navigation

I did it in 1.18.1 to make sure zombies don't go through client-sided blocks

they can still get pushed through but not pathfind through

[drowsy harness]

Sure, but you can just disable pushing. I'm writing this plugin for 1.17. If you don't mind, I'm on a bit of a time limit, could you send the code that you made? If you don't want to, I'll figure something out.

[echo basalt]

knockback is also a thing

https://sourceb.in/3ORwTkMnPb

[drowsy harness]

I already have a solution for that, bit of a ugly one, but it just teleports the entity to the nearest "allowed" place.

[echo basalt]

I'm thinking of overriding the move method

Also my solution uses mojmappings

I have a version without (before I turned to mojmappings) that you could use

But it's for 1.18.1

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[drowsy harness]

Shouldn't be that hard to translate to 1.17, if you could sent it as well, it would be greatly appreciated!

[echo basalt]

https://sourceb.in/JaOj29ULjl

here's how you inject it

https://sourceb.in/5TvGrLcwlt

Here's the obfuscated version

It's quite simple honestly

Just look at PathfinderNormal

copy everything

and modify that 1 static method with the 200 if(...) return PathType...

[tardy delta]

uh oh

[tardy delta]

comments are a great thing too

[river oracle]

Hashmap Player player

[river oracle]

HashTable<Player, Player, Player>

[tardy delta]

dunno how that works

[worldly ingot]

Basically key, key, value

Column, row, value

I mean, it's a table ;p

If i change something in the chat format in config.yml, and use /cplus to reload the file, the chat format gets taken back to the vanilla one (before changing it it worked), but if i change anything else and i dont change the chat format everything works fine, any help?

and i have a HUGE mess in my main class

cause i really dont care about the looks i just care if it works xD

[tardy delta]

i see lmao wtf

[fiery prairie]

ye ill probably spend some time making something for the looks

[tardy delta]

😵‍💫

[fiery prairie]

?

[eternal oxide]

You are still doing List<String> badwords = getConfig().getStringList("badwords");

change it to List<String> badwords = null;Then in your onEnable, after saveDefaultConfig() add reload();

[quartz basalt]

am i dumb or smthn my ide is saying ``` if (Material.valueOf(args[0].toUpperCase()) != null) {

                }``` will always be true im trying to check if a materival exists

[fiery prairie]

yea but pretty sure thats not gonna fix my problem with chat formatting

[tall dragon]

if it cannot be found its gonna throw an exception

[quartz basalt]

yeah and i dont rly want that

[eternal oxide]

You never know. you accessing a config which doesn;t yet exist can do all sorts of crap to your plugin

[fiery prairie]

but that thing isnt gonna break anythingright?

[eternal oxide]

Yes it might

[fiery prairie]

noice

[eternal oxide]

You are forcing Bukkit to deal with yoru config before its supposedx to. Before you've even asked for it to be saved

[fiery prairie]

but im asking if what you told me with that code earlier is gonna break anything?

cause like if its null then the antibadword system might not work

[eternal oxide]

no, my code will not break anything

[fiery prairie]

alright thx

[eternal oxide]

by calling reload() in your onEnable you set your badwords field

[frozen cedar]

how to make a mob look at the player?

[fiery prairie]

so umm it actually works with changing most things so thank you, but if i put a PAPI placeholder anywhere it throws this

i have papi installed of course xD

and also formatting doesnt work too

[eternal oxide]

It says line 241

[fiery prairie]

e.setFormat

nvm

in intellij it doesnt exist

bruh

okay i refreshed intellij now it works

so yeah it is the e.setFormat

[fleet comet]

intelliji is wierd

[eternal oxide]

Your error is p.getDisplayName()).replace("%message%", msg)

nope, ignore me

I read wrong bracket

[fiery prairie]

better than eclipse imo though

[fleet comet]

ofc

[eternal oxide]

Ok I'm in the mniddle of cooking dinner, but your mistake is you are replacing the whole format, as if you are creating the output string.

You need to modify the format not replace it. there are elements you have to preserve in the original string

[rough drift]

If I have an item with an NBT can I make a recipe use the whole item rather than only the material?

So like if I have stone with a PDC key of "eee" can I make a recipe use only stone with the PDC key of "eee" rather than just plain stone

[fiery prairie]

What does that mean? (sry i dont understand much xD), you can respond after dinner ofc

[dusty herald]

show me code

too lazy to scroll

[fiery prairie]

.

it throws errors when using placeholders in chat format in config.yml

[dusty herald]

from the looks of this i dont think so https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/inventory/ShapedRecipe.html

[zenith gate]

I thought namespacedkeys auto lowercased everything?

[frozen cedar]

help please

[ivory sleet]

No, they’re more like validations

When you have a NamespacedKey you can rest assured the content encapsulated follows a pattern

[zenith gate]

mhm, I have caps in some of my namespaced keys, but this one just gave me an error I was just confused.

[ivory sleet]

What mob specifically?

[frozen cedar]

cave spider

[fiery prairie]

doesnt it look at the player when it attacks him?

[sterile token]

I have question for registering a custom command class with a custom annotation processor do i need to initialize the class?

Its a question which ill be used on my command framework

[lost matrix]

A class is always initialized when the classloader touches it...

[sterile token]

Oh ok

[lost matrix]

But you will obviously have to instantiate it nonetheless.

[sterile token]

That was what i mean

If when using reflections for registering them i need to initialize

Then i have a big issue because i need to care about the constructors from the command classes

🤔

[ocean lion]

Anybody know a good player point based api

[sterile token]

Dm me and explain exactly what you need

Maybe i can do a custom for you (free or as you want)

👍

[zenith gate]

on a EntityDamageEvent is event.getEntity() the one who was damaged or the one doing the damage?

[eternal oxide]

OK I'm back. Your issues is you are replacing the whole format with a single string, including the message. Spigot is expecting a valid format string not just a string

do not insert the message into the string. modify it and use setMessage

then at the end of the format string add %s or perhaps it %2s I forget

[fiery prairie]

setMessage wouldn't change the format of the nickname surroundings, or am i not understanding correctly?

[eternal oxide]

no, but you are modifying the message to remove links etc?

[fiery prairie]

yea

[eternal oxide]

then modify the getMessage and put it back with setMessage

I believe its %2$s

[fiery prairie]

ohh I understand, thank you!

[patent horizon]

            task = Bukkit.getScheduler().scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(PlexPvP.get(), () -> {
                if (event.getProjectile().isOnGround() || event.getProjectile().isDead()) Bukkit.getScheduler().cancelTask(finaltask);
                player.sendMessage("flying");
            }, 0L, 1L );``` would anyone know why the task still gets repeated after the arrow hit the ground?

[eternal oxide]

because the event is stale once you enter your runnable. itsd not dynamically updated

Listen on the https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/event/entity/ProjectileHitEvent.html

You can get teh shooter in that event

[ocean lion]

Anyone know a good player point (coins) based api?

[quartz gull]

What I would do I would first create a instance like so BukkitTask task; then do your code, then I would simply do task.cancel();

[eternal oxide]

Or don't use a runnable at all as you don't need it

[patent horizon]

    @EventHandler
    private void onProjectile(EntityShootBowEvent event) {

        if (event.getEntity() instanceof Player player) {

            var data = PlexPvP.getPlayerController().get(player);
            var selectedCosmetic = data.getSelectedCosmetic().get(CosmeticType.PROJECTILE);

            if (selectedCosmetic == null) return;

            var task = 0;
            var finaltask = task;
            task = Bukkit.getScheduler().scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(PlexPvP.get(), () -> {
                if (projectile.contains(event.getProjectile())) {
                    Bukkit.getScheduler().cancelTask(finaltask);
                    projectile.remove(event.getProjectile());
                }
                player.sendMessage("flying");
                if (!activeProjectiles.contains(player)) {

                    player.sendMessage("avail");
                    switch (selectedCosmetic) {
                        case RAINBOW -> Rainbow.play(event.getProjectile(), player, activeProjectiles);
                    }
                    activeProjectiles.add(player);

                }
            }, 0L, 1L );

        }

    }

    @EventHandler
    private void onProjectileHit(ProjectileHitEvent event) {

        if (event.getEntity() instanceof Player player) {

            var data = PlexPvP.getPlayerController().get(player);
            var selectedCosmetic = data.getSelectedCosmetic().get(CosmeticType.PROJECTILE);

            if (selectedCosmetic == null) return;

            projectile.add(event.getEntity());

        }


    }```

this doesnt seem to work

[eternal oxide]

you are trying to add a rainbow effect to an arrow?

[eternal oxide]

getEntity() is the projectile not the player

it will never be instanceof Player

event.getEntity().getShooter()

[patent horizon]

well the event is going to be a general thing

can play one of many kinds of effects

[cunning canopy]

Do my bungee cord server need to be a game server?

Or could I just use a xeon

[lost matrix]

bungeecord is a proxy. You can just run it on a raspberry pi if you want.

[cunning canopy]

So it only job is to redirect right? Like no traffic is actually running through it other then the players connecting?

[tardy delta]

Im Running my test server on a pi smh

Poor brush

[lost matrix]

Same goes for spigot. Everything that runs java can run bungeecord and spigot.
So all pcs, servers, pis and even your smartphone.

[lost matrix]

The whole traffic is going through the proxy. Every single packet.

Thats what a proxy is for...

[cunning canopy]

So it will bottleneck if my proxy ain't as good as my game servers?

[lost matrix]

No. It will bottleneck when it can not handle the traffic. Either through bandwidth or cpu limitations.

[harsh totem]

is there a way to make sure this error doesn't happen?

Error: SQLITE_BUSY: database is locked

[lost matrix]

Most probably

[harsh totem]

what?

[quartz gull]

lmao

grammar 100

[harsh totem]

you said it before i sent it

[lost matrix]

Use a connection pool like HikariCP. You are probably polluting your connections.

[harsh totem]

i dont understand

[lost matrix]

And make sure to always properly close your connections.

[harsh totem]

its a bot. it should remain open

[lost matrix]

No. Always close your connections after you used them.
If you need something else then you create a new connection.

Usually all of this is done by a connection pool.

Like HikariCP

[harsh totem]

ok

[ocean lion]

Is there any good ScoreboardAPI out there. cant seem to find

[eternal oxide]

The Spigot Scoreboard API is quite good. I'd use that

[ocean lion]

-.-

[eternal oxide]

🙂

[fringe hemlock]

Agreed

[cunning canopy]

But it wil only receive traffic the moment a user connects?

[lost matrix]

It will also handle any pings and handshakes. But the main traffic occurs while players are connected.

[ornate patio]

is there some sort of entity collision event

[eternal oxide]

no

[lost matrix]

Nope

[cunning canopy]

But it's not responsible for the minecraft traffic

[ornate patio]

damn

i need to make a certain mob not collide with any entities in the world

i'll just use teams then

[lost matrix]

Yes its responsible for the whole traffic. If a player moves a bit then he sends a packet to the proxy and the proxy sends it to the server.
If a block changes on the server then the server sends a packet to the proxy and the proxy sends it to the player.
And for every player the proxy will have to route thousands upon thousands of packets every single second.

[eternal oxide]

Mob is a LivingEntity which has a setCollidable

[zenith gate]

I keep getting a null exception error for my ARMOR hashmap not having anything in it, but when the plugin starts I have a loop for when online players first join everything gets set, Max Mana 100, Mana regen 0.5, setting Mana to 0.0, that all works but when i set Armor to 0.0 im still getting null exception.

java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "java.lang.Double.doubleValue()" because "original" is null

// where the error is happening
    public static void addArmor(Player player, Double amount){
        Double original = ARMOR.get(player);
        Double now = original + amount;
        ARMOR.put(player, now);
        }
// Puttnig the player in the hashmap
for(Player player : Bukkit.getServer().getOnlinePlayers()){
            Mana.ARCANE_POWER.put(player, Mana.MAX_ArcanePower.get(player));
            player.setHealth(40);
            player.setSaturation(20);
            player.setFoodLevel(20);
            Mana.MANA_PER_SECOND.put(player, 0.5);
            Mana.MAX_ArcanePower.put(player, 100.0);
            Armor.ARMOR.put(player, 0.0);
        }

I don't know what to fix..

[lost matrix]

Well ARMOR.get(player) returns null. Problem solved.

[zenith gate]

yes but im setting the armor

Armor.ARMOR.put(player, 0.0);

when the player joins

it shouldn't be null

[eternal oxide]

The Player object does not get reused if a player relogs

[lost matrix]

There is SO much wrong with this code. Im not even going to attempt helping here to be honest.
You should visit the java basics again or at least take a look at conventions.

[pliant plover]

all.addPotionEffect((new PotionEffect(PotionEffectType.WEAKNESS, 255000000, 10, true))); Is the true for removing particles?

[cunning canopy]

So does the proxy have to be beefy?

[hot wolf]

Short question. Is there a way to get any player? I just need it to initialize something when starting my plugin, but I'm not sure what player to use, especially because names change

[lost matrix]

Really depends on your traffic. But if you get a decent root server for 20 bucks (i7 4770 or something) then you can run
8 minecraft server + your proxy on it without any problems.
<20 players it does really not matter.

[hot wolf]

nvm im stupid

got it

[cunning canopy]

I have an ryzen 9 server with 8gb which I intend to use as a hub for around 100 players. Could I use a xeon with 1 gig for proxy or will I bottleneck like shit

[ornate patio]

I'm trying to implement proximity chat:
https://mystb.in/TabletsWichitaCompilation.csharp

For some reason it errors when a player sends a message in chat without any description

[lost matrix]

What kind of xeon. There are xeons from 10 years ago that would bottleneck.

[ornate patio]

Are you loading data from a database every time someone writes in chat?

[ornate patio]

yeah

What was it...

[ornate patio]

anyways i don't see how it would cause it to error

Well the error is as clear as it gets.

oh wait

[lost matrix]

ofc not. You can not use any spigot api from another thread. Nothing.

[lost matrix]

Just do it on the main thread?

[ornate patio]

does Bukkit.getScheduler().runTask work

[lost matrix]

Sure

[crisp coral]

Does anybody know how to change block strength without NMS, i just discovered this server and after 2 weeks i am pretty sure its impossible but if it is, can any of you help

[fringe hemlock]

Is it efficient to load player data to memory on asyncplayerpreloginevent, and then edit the data in memory then save back to database on quit or server close async, but always keep a copy in memory so if they relog it’s already there

[lost matrix]

Only synthetically with events. Otherwise you would need to change the blast resistance (or "durability") through nms

[crisp coral]

I dont know nms though, Whenever i try to use it, it always errors. I dont know how to import it cause im using InteliJ and I have been struggling for 2 weeks with this.

[lost matrix]

Thats what you should always do.
On prelogin -> load data
On quit -> save data

I would not keep it in memory after a player logs off.

[crisp coral]

Allot of the time I get CraftMagicNumbers but not even that works.

[fringe hemlock]

Alright thank you, I kept it in memory just so I didn’t have to read it back from the database if they relogged

[lost matrix]

This will be a huge problem if you have several server instances. Otherwise its fine.

[ornate patio]

i was honestly planning to load data from the database every time a player takes damage 💀

[fringe hemlock]

Dam bro

[lost matrix]

Why? Read the article and then define your "sessions"

[ornate patio]

im too lazy to set up this data thing

but I guess i probably will

[fringe hemlock]

SQL or MariaDB which is better

[ornate patio]

I'll have a class to automatically manage all the data in the background

[lost matrix]

No need to set up anything. Just understand the "states of data" and the "scopes of data"

[ornate patio]

alright

[patent horizon]

is it possible to get the head location of an entity?

ah ok ty

[ornate patio]

@lost matrix How would I go about creating this data manager for two linked data types

I have to store a bunch of Families that contain a bunch of players

in my SQL database I have a separate table for players and families

[lost matrix]

Every family should have a uuid.
Then in the player data you set the family uid
in the family you maintain a set<uuid> for all family members

[ornate patio]

"in the family you maintain a set<uuid> for all family members"
But aren't I also storing a family id in each player?

So i'll have make sure the player references the family and the family references the player?

[lost matrix]

Depends on your model and what relations you want.

[ornate patio]

well I am going to be accessing members of a family and the family of a player quite often

[ocean lion]

Anyone who has or knows about an easy to use ScoreboardAPI

[noble lantern]

By chance do you happen to know if theres NMS methods for making a Player place a block thats in there hand? Or would packets be the only way?

[naive bolt]

is listening to an event from a different plugin the same as a bukkit event?

[young knoll]

Yes

[manic furnace]

I've got a SchedualedExecutorService, which schedules 3 runnables at fixed rate:

Main.getScheduledPool().scheduleAtFixedRate(new ServerConnectionWorker(),0,100,TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
Main.getScheduledPool().scheduleAtFixedRate(new DataUpdateWorker(),0,500, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
Main.getScheduledPool().scheduleAtFixedRate(new HeartbeatWorker(),0,2000, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);

But for some reason I don't understand, the second task (DataUpdateWorker) only executes one time.

[ivory sleet]

how does the class look like

[gleaming grove]

It would be possible to build .jar file with icon?

[manic furnace]

public class DataUpdateWorker implements Runnable {
    @Override
    public void run() {
        System.out.println("TEST " + Main.getServerManagerConnection().isConnectionConfirmed());
        try {
            if (Main.getServerManagerConnection().isConnectionConfirmed()){
                MCServer mcServer = new MCServer(Main.getServerManagerConnection().getUuid(), (BufferedImage) Bukkit.getServerIcon());
                Main.getServerManagerConnection().getMCManagerConnection().write(Requests.Common.updateData(mcServer));
                System.out.println("SENT " + Main.getServerManagerConnection().isConnectionConfirmed());
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
    }
}```

[ivory sleet]

btw

whats the configuration for ur SES

[manic furnace]

What do you mean?

[ivory sleet]

how do u instantiate it

[glass mauve]

Executors.BLAH_BLah

[ivory sleet]

cause assume you use a single threaded one

^

[glass mauve]

which one do you use

[ivory sleet]

then u should delegate

to a pool with multiple threads

(which is usually what we do)

[manic furnace]

private static final ScheduledExecutorService scheduledPool = Executors.newScheduledThreadPool(3);

[noble lantern]

work stealing

[ivory sleet]

yeah

that or cached

[noble lantern]

ngl cached prolly better for mc maybe

just a few threads open, doubt theyre gonna be constantly used to where they all get taken up

[ivory sleet]

I mean

when we get virtual threads

[rough drift]

#ProjectLOOM

[noble lantern]

its too far away

[manic furnace]

So what can be my problem?

[noble lantern]

wtf is that

[noble lantern]

you just need to change your service pool

[manic furnace]

To what?

[ivory sleet]

I could imagine one of ur tasks comprises to a dead lock

[rough drift]

basically a JEP that adds virtual threads and more threading shit

to java

[ivory sleet]

which means scheduling gets blocked entirely

hence why we usually wanna execute logic in another pool

[rough drift]

I also like project panama

[ivory sleet]

jep 428 and jep 425

❤️

[rough drift]

https://openjdk.org/projects/loom/

[noble lantern]

Executers has a few different methods

You can used a fixed sized cached pool

Or work stealing to a fixed size

The method names are quite literally named those

Typically you size them to System.getRuntime().theCoreCountMethodHere() (Someone know the name)

Or just let them size themself with the default () args

oops

meant to reply

[rough drift]

https://wiki.openjdk.org/display/loom/Main

[noble lantern]

so its a hack for jdk1k 19

in a sense

[ivory sleet]

@manic furnace

[noble lantern]

OH CONCLURE

[ivory sleet]

you could try to obtain the thread

[noble lantern]

HAVE YOU MET LEEROY

[ivory sleet]

and interrupt it

leeroy?

[noble lantern]

MOTHAFUCKING LEEROY

[ivory sleet]

Wyf lol

[noble lantern]

I made a horror video with him too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0M2TQ9mULD0

https://github.com/Burchard36/LEEROYJENKINS

[ivory sleet]

Not a hack

Its a feature 🙂

[noble lantern]

loom is a feature?

[ivory sleet]

its a project

which contains a set of jeps (java enhancement proposals)

[noble lantern]

bump in case anyone knows

[noble lantern]

never heard of jeps

[ivory sleet]

there is a method

but no clue which one

[noble lantern]

yeah theres like

20,000

[ivory sleet]

lol

[noble lantern]

and then objects with objects, that also have another object

with another 40 methods

[rough drift]

jeps are amazing

read the hottest ones

[noble lantern]

can hear my computer scream rendering the tab completions for ServerPlayer

[rough drift]

they'll make you wish for them instantly

[steel swan]

anyone has an idea of how to create a line of particules (x blocks long) and detect if it touches a player, and then get that player?

[ivory sleet]

var scheduler = Executors.newSingleScheduledExecutor();
var tempExecutor = Executor.newCachedThreadPool(runnable -> {
  var thread = new Thread(runnable);
  thread.setDaemon(true);
  thread.start();
});
Executor executor = runnable -> {
  try {
    tempExecutor.submit(runnable);
  } catch (Exception e) {
    //HANDLE
  }
};

Consumer<Runnable> = runnable -> scheduler.scheduleAtFixedRate(() -> executor.submit(runnable),delay,timeUnit);

you probably wanna have something like this

or well

[noble lantern]

oh wtf

[ivory sleet]

wait let me think

[noble lantern]

nms has easy methods for packets

since when

[quartz gull]

hmm

[noble lantern]

nmsPlayer.connection.send(Packet, () -> { // listener}) 😐

[chrome beacon]

Since always?

[noble lantern]

never seen em before

[quaint mantle]

I'm working with NBT API and am re-developing a plugin one of my friends made, but #getPersistentDataContainer() doesn't work with 1.8 (the version I'm developing in). What is the alternative to the method? How does getPersistentDataContainer() work?

public static int getMaxHealth(Entity e){
  NBTCompound target = (new NBTEntity(e)).getPersistentDataContainer();
  return target.getInteger("maxHealth");
}
public static int getHealth(Entity e){
  NBTCompound target = (new NBTEntity(e)).getPersistentDataContainer();
  return target.getInteger("cHealth");
}
...

[worldly ingot]

It was added in 1.14

[quartz gull]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-guide-to-1-14-persistentdataholder-api.371200/ explains what a persistent data container is

[quartz gull]

^

[worldly ingot]

and is a Bukkit method, so I'm not entirely certain why you're retuning an NBTCompound, which is NMS

Not to mention... the methods you linked literally have Bukkit alternatives of LivingEntity#getHealth() and #getMaxHealth()

[last swift]

Thanks.

[quartz gull]

here is a api https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/nbt-api.7939/ for 1.8.8. Next time just use google

[last swift]

Okay. Thanks for the help

[noble lantern]

chooocoooo

[ocean lion]

Yes Jscoreboards but I cant seem to get the injection right

dependency is just red all over

[last swift]

I'm using that API actually, but this error is still thrown when hitting other entities since the method isn't available for 1.8.8 (which is why I asked the question about alternative options).

Caused by: de.tr7zw.nbtapi.NbtApiException: [Selfchecked]The Method 'getPersistentDataContainer' is only avaliable for the Versions MC1_14_R1+, but still got called!

I'll figure out an alternative though.

[ocean lion]

https://gyazo.com/dd7dd3d40fa0007deab977828169cc0e

dependency problem.

[noble lantern]

Your using NBTApi right

[last swift]

Yeah

[noble lantern]

it has a built in class called MinecraftVersion

there is a version getter

[last swift]

Yeah so I could add a check if the version is 1.14 or less

[noble lantern]

and you can

MinecraftVersion.getCurrentVersion() >= 1_14_0

[river oracle]

your better off double checking you have all the info right then going to the dependency owner to make sure things are working out on their end

[noble lantern]

forget its exact name

but yeah

[ocean lion]

but do you see anything wrong?

[last swift]

I'll probably do that. Thanks 👍 This seems to work so I could prob change the code based on the version

public static int getMaxHealth(Entity e){
  int target = (new NBTEntity(e)).getInteger("maxHealth");
  return target;
}

[river oracle]

nope looks like proper syntax to me

[noble lantern]

you added theyre repo right if they have one and refreshed maven?

[ocean lion]

https://nexus-repo.jordanosterberg.com/repository/maven-releases/

yes i added repo

that looks fine

[noble lantern]

indeed it even exists in that repo

odd

well, for now you can install it to your local maven repo if you have the jar

[ocean lion]

no jar :<

[noble lantern]

ooof

big sad

here lemme try to import it

[ocean lion]

do you have a scoreboard api?

[quartz gull]

https://github.com/JordanOsterberg/JScoreboards

[ocean lion]

omg

[noble lantern]

haha

[quartz gull]

dang I got banned from csgo

[quaint mantle]

Dum

[quartz gull]

I did it on purpose I didn't really care anymore

[ocean lion]

did it work?

[noble lantern]

yep

well wait

indexing

all seems good to me

[ocean lion]

weird, how?

[noble lantern]

try invalidating caches for intellij

[ocean lion]

it just say dependency ... not found

[quartz gull]

oh I had The same thing happen when I tried importing craftbukkit into my maven

[quartz gull]

try lowering the version

[ocean lion]

lowering the version?

of the plugin, of the api

[noble lantern]

lowering the version is a horrible way to do it

He likely has something wrong with his maven cache, thats not allowing it to import correct

Yanesa are you 100% sure you refreshed maven

When you import a new lib a button shows up here in the top right

[ocean lion]

HAHA

....

itworked

thank you

[noble lantern]

ofc ofc

[last swift]

I'm trying to create a timer that counts down from 15 minutes, but timeLeft always counts down in increments of 2 and starts at 14:99 which doesn't make sense.

BigDecimal timeLeft = new BigDecimal((double)timer / 60).setScale(2, RoundingMode.HALF_UP);
String line0 = "§bTime Left: §7" + (timeLeft.toString().replace(".", ":"));
team1.setBoard("Title or whatever", line0);
team2.setBoard("Title or whatever", line0);

[sterile token]

?jds 1.19

[sterile token]

I would suggest using a timestamp

[noble lantern]

^

Also Instant provides a bunch of timing methods for you

99% sure it handles epoch milli to formatting like you do

[sterile token]

public class Cooldown {

    private long end;

    public Cooldown(Long time) {
        this.end = System.currentTimeMillis() + time;
    }

    public void stop() { this.end = 0; }

    public boolean hasExpired() { return (System.currentTimeMillis() - this.end >= 1L); }

    public long getRemaining() { return this.end - System.currentTimeMillis(); }
}```

[noble lantern]

but

Instant.from(anotherInstant);

[sterile token]

version?

😂

[noble lantern]

oh

true

[sterile token]

hahhaa

[noble lantern]

damn 1.8 users

[sterile token]

No you are

[noble lantern]

fuuuuck no

[sterile token]

I will defend 1.8 users with all my energy

[noble lantern]

1.19 supremacy

[sterile token]

?jds-s 1.19

?status

[noble lantern]

i think you meant

?1.8

[undone axle]

https://howoldisminecraft188.today/

[sterile token]

?1.17

[undone axle]

Install 1.17 with BuildTools: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/buildtools/

[noble lantern]

WAIT

[last swift]

Thanks!

[noble lantern]

1.8 almost 7 years old

[sterile token]

Not much, cobol is like 20y olds and still being used so please close your esphinter

Sorry if sound rude

But i will always defend 1.8 servers

🤙

[sterile token]

If need something else just ask it here

[ocean lion]

have you used JScoreboard before?

[sterile token]

Look my dm bro

I told you to use assemble

[noble lantern]

he got it imported

but no i havent

[noble lantern]

but

why 1.8 when 1.19 exist

[sterile token]

Same shit with cobol bruh

Why cobol exists, if there is python, rust, etc

😂

[noble lantern]

thats a programming language

not a game tho

cobol can actuall have very valid use cases irl

java is shit, 25?

but that doesnt mean people use java 3 still

same with cobol, when people use it im sure they use the latest developed version vs the older one with bugs, security flaws, developmental mountains for code style, etc

[sterile token]

Hmn i dont know dont worry

If i do a command annot proccessor do i need to care about class constructor when doing initialization?

[noble lantern]

uhm

so what i do, is provide dependency injection for my command class annotations

or, if its empty/no constructor just pass an empty when calling the new instance reflection method

doesnt rly matter for constructor

java provides one by default if none exist and you try to initialize it

[sterile token]

Wait

My command handler class looks for classes annotated with @Command, and then saved each name and data

But what about if the class have a constructor, there i cannot initialize...?

[noble lantern]

as long as its public you can use reflection to initialize it (I assume your using reflection to register these annotation classes)

[sterile token]

Yeah

[noble lantern]

i can show you the code i use sec

[sterile token]

But i wont know the constructors param so then i cannot initialize

[noble lantern]

yes you can if you want to provide dependency injection
