[proven ocean]

it's a vanilly-only name I bellieve

it's smth like "item.minecraft.potion.effect.night_vision" that

/give @s stone{display:{Name:'{"translate":"item.minecraft.potion.effect.night_vision"}'}} this command works just fine

I believe I forgot "display:{Name:'{"

bruH

Yeah idk, i don't get it :(

but I have to go now. If I find a solution imma update you

[twilit roost]

how can I make this work using velocity?
when I tried setting velocity, it launched me way too far from the ship

Location tpTo = p.getLocation().clone();
            tpTo.setPitch(p.getLocation().getPitch());
            tpTo.setYaw(p.getLocation().getYaw());
            Vector direction = prevLocation.clone().subtract(newPos).getDirection().multiply(-1);

            double movedBy = prevLocation.clone().distance(newPos);

            tpTo.add(direction.multiply(movedBy));


            Gizmo.createSphereGizmo(tpTo,5,Color.RED);
            p.teleport(tpTo);

prevLocation - ship's previous location
newPos - ship's new position

[tardy delta]

damn its a ship ladies and gentlemen

i dont think a real pirate would see a difference

[lost matrix]

Explain what you are trying to do

[twilit roost]

soo I just made so player rides together with ship
but I just teleport him and it doesn't look smooth at all, also can't look around

but if I would setVelocity,it would be smooth and nothing would be blocked for player
but when I tried setting players velocity to tpTo.getDirection().multiply(somethings idk)
I just got launched away

[lost matrix]

Wait your ship does not consist of falling blocks but actual blocks that move together with a discrete distance?

[twilit roost]

yes
im using world edit api for that

[noble forge]

oh my

thats why its not smooth

[twilit roost]

by not smooth I mean seeing teleportation

[noble forge]

yeah

youre ship is moving by 1 block

without interpolation or anything

thats what is causing the sudden movement

[lost matrix]

I think i would try lerping the distance of the player.

[noble forge]

that wont solve the issue

[twilit roost]

how?

[noble forge]

the root of the issue is the ship not moving smoothly whereas the player is

[lost matrix]

So if the ship moves one block in 5 ticks you simply teleport the player 5 times while the ship only moves once.

[twilit roost]

oooh

[noble forge]

but then youre not always in the same spot on the ship?

[twilit roost]

you can move
and it works fine
just not interpolated

[lost matrix]

Yeah it will still look a bit weird

[noble forge]

and that will also cause the sudden movement to appear

the reason its looking weird is because youre frame of reference (the ship) is not moving at the same rate you are

lerping the player position wont solve the issue since youre frame of reference is still going to change relative to you

[twilit roost]

well player moves while ship moves

*when

[noble forge]

just try it

whatever

[twilit roost]

couldn't I just convert Location into Velocity?

smhw

[lost matrix]

Well... if you find out the proper magnitude then sure.
But this will be quite hard to get right.

asVector(target - base) * C
Where C is some constant which is directly proportional to the speed of the ship

[twilit roost]

maybe
sNewLoc - sOldLoc .distance?

[lost matrix]

This is for sure too fast

[twilit roost]

imma try settings C to ship speed
maybe it will work ?

[lost matrix]

No it wont

[twilit roost]

nvm

[solid cargo]

any way i can send a player to another server on spigot?

not bungee

[eternal oxide]

no

[solid cargo]

brah

ayo how can i get this boolean?

config.get().getBoolean?

[tardy delta]

config.getBoolean("Power_Button.cool")

[solid cargo]

ohhh

thanks

[tardy delta]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/config-files/

[worldly ingot]

I mean... that depends on the setup. Yes, you can send a player to another server that is connected to the same bungee proxy without using Bungee API

But if you're wanting to send a player from your server to, say for example, Hypixel, no that's not possible

[tardy delta]

if the other server is on the same proxy, you can use plugin messages right?

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/bukkit-bungee-plugin-messaging-channel/#connectother

[round eagle]

it was somewhat possible on minecraft bedrock

idk if it still is. havent played

[worldly ingot]

This is Java edition ;p

[golden kelp]

how can I get data from one server to other one

basically I have one server which is kinda like the hub, now I want to show the player count of a DIFFERENT server (which is the minigame server)

[worldly ingot]

Generally you’d use something like Redis

You can use an SQL database but Redis is probably faster for that sort of stuff, especially given that you can make use of pub/sub

[quaint mantle]

Cannot resolve method 'size()'

halp

[pliant plover]

Send the entire line pls

[frosty tinsel]

Send the whole line

[noble lantern]

This so desperately pisses me off and no matter what I do I cant fix this shit:

Theirs: https://paste.md-5.net/moqejabotu.xml
Mine: https://paste.md-5.net/qazimulewo.xml

(Do note ive upgraded maven special source and re-ran build tools)

I am trying to import a module from CitizensAPI (Theirs) but for some FUCKING reason, even when compiling the source LOCALLY on MY OWN OBFUSCATION JARS, Objects from "Theirs" gets remapped differently to mine

In the screenshot, I have CitizensNPC's src code open, and its ServerPlayer but when i import it through maven (Wether its repo, the mapped jar, unmapped jar, etc) The ServerPlayer (And many other objects) of the imported module go to shit (See screenshot)

[zenith gate]

is using

Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("Wired");

a viable way of getting my other plugin to use it's methods?
if so is it the same way of registering events? just from another plugin

[solid cargo]

yes. thats what i wanted

[noble lantern]

and here is src code, on my machine perfectly fine as ServerPlayer, yet when imported via maven no matter what the mappings are fucked

[quaint mantle]

forgot to ccomplete it mb

 new BukkitRunnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                for (Player player : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()) {

                    ItemStack item = player.getInventory().getHelmet();

                    if(item == null) {return;}
                    if(item.getItemMeta() == null) {return;}
                    if(item.getItemMeta().getDisplayName() == null) {return;}
                    ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
                    String ItemName = item.getItemMeta().getDisplayName();
                    if (ItemName.equals(ChatColor.RED + "Dctr's Space Helmet")) {
                        Random r = new Random();
                        int color = r.nextInt(colors.size());
                        Material material = colors.get(color);

                }
            }
        }.runTaskTimer(this, 20, 20);```

the .size and .get is showing an error

[frosty tinsel]

There isn't any variable declared with name colors

[quaint mantle]

there is

[frosty tinsel]

colors is an array, not a list

[quaint mantle]

so what I do

[frosty tinsel]

You have to use colors.length

[quaint mantle]

do I do dis or what tomasan told

[frosty tinsel]

Both

[quaint mantle]

so colors.length?

but what about the colors.get(color); eerror

[frosty tinsel]

Use colors.length to get the size and colors[int] to get Xth element

[quaint mantle]

also which line was da return thing

thanks guys

contniue

alr

[quaint mantle]

so this will be
int color = r.nextInt(color.length

[ornate patio]

General design question:
So I've implemented a kind of design that loads and unloads player data into memory, similar to this: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/working-with-data.562421/

But my question is how would I create a command to paginate through all player data? I can't just query the database because it won't be up to date all the time.

yes but I want to paginate through all player data

loaded and unloaded

[frosty tinsel]

Load all

[tardy delta]

dont think you want to create a new random for each player

[ornate patio]

isnt that a bad idea

[frosty tinsel]

And then paginate

[frosty tinsel]

Do it in chunks

[ornate patio]

huh

[frosty tinsel]

Or query the database for three pages ahead

[ornate patio]

my bad

[frosty tinsel]

And query the next on the go

[ornate patio]

hmm

okay I'll try to see if I can do that

i just feel like i'm gonna run into a logic issue

i'll see

[pliant plover]

public void onPlayerRespawn(PlayerRespawnEvent event) <- why doesn't this code fire when someone respawns?

[naive bolt]

  public static void AsyncChatHookEvent(AsyncChatHookEvent e){
    plugin.getLogger().info("Got event");
    Player p = e.getPlayer();
    String s = e.getChannel().toString();
    p.sendMessage("You spoke in: "+s);
  }
``` can anyone see why this wouldnt work
its using the `import com.palmergames.bukkit.TownyChat.events.AsyncChatHookEvent;`

[drowsy harness]

Best way to check if an ArmorStands block on head is colliding with something?

[pliant plover]

I have put the Eventhandler

I have also implemented the listener

[eternal oxide]

implement & register?

[pliant plover]

Its in my Main class

oh

ok, thanks for helping

ListenerClass can't be resolved in a type

do I have to put Listener in there?

so that I have only one this?

[quaint mantle]

da thing you told colors[color] didnt work

D:

[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.

[quaint mantle]

oh

[pliant plover]

"this" doesn't work

[tardy delta]

provide your plugins instance

[pliant plover]

but it is my main class

Bukkit.getPluginManager().registerEvents(new Main(), this); but this does work

[delicate lynx]

well that explains it

[eternal oxide]

god no. NEVER new Main()

yep

[pliant plover]

why does it work now ._ .

[delicate lynx]

?main

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/why-you-shouldnt-name-your-main-plugin-class-main.493289/

[pliant plover]

Bukkit.getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this); like this it works

[delicate lynx]

yeah because you properly registered the event that way

[solid cargo]

how can i redirect to another bungee server within my network using spigot api?

[noble lantern]

bump on this

[quaint mantle]

Material material = colors.get[color];
I kept code as this
Cannot resolve symbol 'get'

[tardy delta]

learnjava moment

use ThreadLocalRandom.current() instead of new Random()

[ornate patio]

another question

[ornate patio]

lets say I just wanted to get the data of one offline player (unloaded data)

is it proper to load the data and then unload it later on a certain interval when it all gets flushed

[quaint mantle]

but wont that break the use of the plugin?

like

AH

well then wont it break the plugin? like the glass needs to be an armor

a helmet

I did

sooo

wat I do for the lasrt part

last

[eternal oxide]

I think in 1.8 its somethign like setTypeandData

or setType(Material, data)

I forget, its years ago

teh data being a byte

[noble lantern]

got it

Created sub module and then install sub module to .m2 then imported it via local repo

when can special source be for gradle

im tired of this

[eternal oxide]

Maven love 😄

[noble lantern]

hell no

not after today and its bs i put up with

hoever i did learn maven modules

so something good came out of it

[eternal oxide]

Go on... You know you want too... Just a little Maven

[noble lantern]

gradle

3 hours for this

not bad

[eternal oxide]

It OK, its not addictive, honest... Just one little taste.

[river oracle]

maven 😆

use maven come on do it just use it just once

[noble lantern]

why yall love maven so much

[eternal oxide]

It not really love. We just don;t need Gradle. Its not because we are addicted twitch honest.

[river oracle]

I just don't need gradlew Maven has everything I need I can stop any time and convert anyways

[eternal oxide]

Yep, we can stop any time we want

[river oracle]

yea

[noble lantern]

bro its literally server player

ffs

[eternal oxide]

yes

[river oracle]

I'm sure this would be easier with maven

[noble lantern]

Wtf even is EntityPlayer remappings from???

[noble lantern]

it is sadly

[eternal oxide]

strokes his maven

[noble lantern]

wai

this shit just compiled

somethings not right

[lost matrix]

https://tenor.com/view/stevecarrell-the-office-not-suspicious-at-all-gif-9198893

[solid cargo]

is there a way i can bukkit.dispatchcommand as an opped player. not consolesender, but opped player

[flint coyote]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#performCommand(java.lang.String)

you would have to check if the player is op yourself. Otherwise he will simply get a "no permission" result

[solid cargo]

why does this...

produce this

and yes, i have bungee

[frosty tinsel]

Does the player have permission?

[solid cargo]

yes

doing it manually works perfectly

[frosty tinsel]

It's probably not gonna work, because it can't communicate with bungee

[solid cargo]

a l t e r n a t i v e s ?

[frosty tinsel]

You know it simulates executing the command on the Spigot server, but on on bungee

You'll have to use plugin messaging

And send a message to the bungee, to move the player to different server

[frosty tinsel]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/bukkit-bungee-plugin-messaging-channel/#connect

[solid cargo]

thanks

[charred blaze]

what can i do on this static things?

32 bit

[frosty tinsel]

The best would be to learn what static actually is.

?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.

[charred blaze]

it shares variables and voids to other classes ig?

[tardy delta]

no

thats not the point of static

[frosty tinsel]

It ties functions/variables to the class and not to objects

[charred blaze]

cool

[frosty tinsel]

Meaning, you cannot reference instance variables in the static context

[charred blaze]

is there any way with i can use getDataFolder() in static context whithout setting plugin to static?

[tardy delta]

?di

[undone axle]

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

[tardy delta]

have a plugin field

and initialize it with the constructor

[charred blaze]

what if i have bungee plugin?

[tardy delta]

whats the problem?

[worldly ingot]

Yeah. Bungee = proxy events. Bukkit = server events (like block breaking)

[charred blaze]

my problem is: i want to make String url static but i cant use getDataFolder() then

[lost matrix]

All bukkit events are handled server side already...

[lost matrix]

Variables are initialized before the constructor is being run

[charred blaze]

and??

[lost matrix]

Bungee doesnt know about events or spigot... it doesnt know what kind of server is on the other side.

[lost matrix]

Should be more than enough information

[carmine hatch]

is it recommended to update loot tables with spigot or should I just make a datapack instead?

[charred blaze]

its not

[charred blaze]

how to reverse that?

[ripe urchin]

Hi there, I was interested in getting into minecraft development. Have been trying out a few random things just to see how it works etc. Already know my ways around java a bit, but never touched spigot plugins. Would anyone have a guide for complete beginners, or at least point to one where i can get started on how this all works?

[charred blaze]

youtube: how to make minecraft plugin

[carmine hatch]

me too buddy. I've been slowly going through this giant playlist by a guy called kody simpson on youtube

[ripe urchin]

i know how to code just how the basics of getting started work. What people would consider a good place to get started in spigot development

i know minecraft itself plenty enough too lol

[river oracle]

clearly since you don't understand it you should learn some java. Java isn't python its not run from top down at run time

[lost matrix]

If you know at least the very basics of java then this is more than enough information

[charred blaze]

can i initialize plugin in main and use then use it in other classes?

[carmine hatch]

as someone who doesn't know the very basics of java, I can confirm that isn't enough information for me

do you mean that making a custom recipe just stores it in memory when you start the server up?

[noble lantern]

i set my static plugin instance after i initalize all my main class variables

[charred blaze]

im trying to know that now

by asking you

[carmine hatch]

yeah I'll play around with it just wasn't sure if it was going to be the best course of action, but it looks like there is this LootGenerateEvent I can use so that's a good start

thanks 😄

[ripe urchin]

was mostly looking for some guide on how to set up your environment, get your basic package structure etc. Can't find this on the spigot website itself (unless i'm completely overlooking it)

already found the api docs themselves

[charred blaze]

can you link me a thing where this is explained

getting instance

[ripe urchin]

ah yeah nah i use IDEA

[worldly ingot]

You can have a bungee plugin and a spigot plugin in the same .jar, if that's what you mean. Though if your plugin is installed on Bungee, no, you're not able to handle anything Bukkit-related because it doesn't exist on the proxy. It has no concept of worlds.

[hot wolf]

How can I use functions of other classes (from another plugin of mine) in my new plugin? Because when I just add the Economy plugin as a dependency and use DatabaseUtil.getBalance(String uuid);, Maven wants to stab me

[placid birch]

I've just started making plugins, but a lot of people say I should learn Java before even trying. Is MOOC Helsinki a good guide (if anyone else here has experience with it).

[ripe urchin]

ah there's a plugin for it i see

that helps

[hot wolf]

Same but people tend to be unwilling to help you. In my case it was fine ig, because I already had experience with a lot of other languages tho

[ripe urchin]

already had java classes in uni so that's not the order i can take haha

[hot wolf]

I honestly think that learning by doing is a great method to learn programming languages

true

[hot wolf]

I'd appreciate any help I can get.
Maven says the following btw: package me.probablydiary.caveeconomy.util does not exist

[placid birch]

I find that works the best me. I can't remember much from what I'm reading 😂

[hot wolf]

Hashmaps are awesome

Even though Java isn't (personal opinion)

[carmine hatch]

Arraylist is super easy to learn and super powerful too 😄

[delicate lynx]

store the inventory somewhere

[hot wolf]

HashMap, for runtime ig

Not sure the HashMap works

[carmine hatch]

are you saying you can store an entire inventory with its' exact contents as a value on the hashmap?

[hot wolf]

sure

[hot wolf]

Not sure about the HashMap, like i said

[delicate lynx]

save the inventory somewhere else

if you add contents and close it, the items are there still

[carmine hatch]

true

[hot wolf]

could

[carmine hatch]

I think my buddy said hashmaps are only stored in memory so you would have to redefine the inventory on startup every time too

[hot wolf]

ArrayList or HashMap should do the job. Regarding resources and efficiency, idk

[carmine hatch]

that's crazy I didn't know you could use such complex values

the only examples I've seen were like UUID's and strings lol

[hot wolf]

Not sure it's smart to store such complex Objects in a hash map though. But idk

I'm not familiar with the Space complexity of Hash Maps

wdym

ofc, i think storing the whole inv does that though.

[carmine hatch]

is there not just an already defined vanilla minecraft grindstone inventory you can access without all this hashmap work, or are you making your own new version of a grindstone?

[hot wolf]

Because it's basically an ItemStack[]

May I ask what you're trying to do? Cause it's hard to follow rn

InventoryCloseEvent

[eternal oxide]

close event

[hot wolf]

ye

[hot wolf]

ElgarL, do you have any idea why Maven tries to kill me when I access a function of Class from a dependency (Economy plugin of mine). package ..... does not exist

[eternal oxide]

Maven? you mean on the server?

Your eco plugin has to be installed

[hot wolf]

Nope, when trying to compiling

*trying to compile

[eternal oxide]

what scope did you add yoru eco plugin as?

[hot wolf]

okay so thats the problem. Uh, how do I add it as a dependency in Maven?

[eternal oxide]

I'm betting you manually added teh jar to your project

[hot wolf]

yess

xD

[eternal oxide]

one sec, you need to install it as a 3rd party jar to maven

[charred blaze]

im still stuck on this. can anyone.....

[hot wolf]

I thought it's gonna be a problem but I didn't think it was going to be this early

[eternal oxide]

oh, are you building yoru eco with maven too?

[hot wolf]

did, yes

[eternal oxide]

if you are building it with Maven just run install

that will add it to your local maven

you can then add it to your other projects pom

[hot wolf]

if I want to deploy it on the server, will it work or will I have to configure anything so that it works?

[eternal oxide]

you just have to have both jars on your server

[hot wolf]

nocie

*noice

Appreciate it

[charred blaze]

Cannot make a static reference to the non-static field plugin

you mean this? private final Main plugin;

still red

class is public?

wdym

i can move plugin instance to static

i actually cant

😄

exatly

im not doing configuration

i just need db

to use db

i need this string

shared in other classes

so i need static

but it goes red

[hot wolf]

Do I have to add it to my pom.xml too? Because right now it doesn't seem to work

[eternal oxide]

yes

[hot wolf]

Oh, makes sense lol

[eternal oxide]

you add it as you would any other dependency

[hot wolf]

group id and stuff, alright

Thanks

[charred blaze]

how?

[hot wolf]

Can you make both static or both not static?

[charred blaze]

i cant

[crisp steeple]

you are trying to make a reference to an instance member from a static context

[hot wolf]

lol

[charred blaze]

i need this string static

[crisp steeple]

you most likely don’t

if you follow proper dependency injection structures

[charred blaze]

im not doing config file

[charred blaze]

is it working on bungee?

[hot wolf]

why not? Does it give you another error?

[crisp steeple]

what

[noble lantern]

DI follows through all java programs ._.

you can do it on a basic helloworld program without spigot if you so please xD

[charred blaze]

no

this think me

[tardy delta]

Bruh i told you not not make it static

[noble lantern]

i got an idea

how about we learn about method values

[tardy delta]

Make a method for it

[noble lantern]

since DI is not an option for some reason

[charred blaze]

Bruh i told you i need it static

[charred blaze]

method values? wdym

ill try DI

[tardy delta]

Then init it in the constructot

[noble lantern]

that means making it not static

[lost matrix]

You really dont. You should try to not use static for the first few plugins.

[charred blaze]

what

[charred blaze]

how can i share it to other classes then?

[lost matrix]

by passing an instance to other classes

[charred blaze]

tutorial?

[placid birch]

after trying to add github to intellij, a all files have a red name. i then disconnected github but the changes are still there

https://gyazo.com/72c9b9f4c18ee8832a6e797b6e5b2b3c

[lost matrix]

type git add * in your terminal

[charred blaze]

will this work? i heard someone saying variables are initialized first

[noble lantern]

ayyy

well

set url value inside the constructor

then ayyyy

[lost matrix]

So first url is initialized. This will call getDataFolder() on your plugin variable.
Then the constructor is called. The constuctor initializes the plugin variable.
Spot the problem.

[charred blaze]

i cant use public in it

[noble lantern]

only static variables are initialized first really, as you noticed with your previous error, unless its in the constructor

[placid birch]

now it's green for some reason. is it possible to change it back to how it was originally?

[charred blaze]

a

[charred blaze]

so i can use this with no problem?

[lost matrix]

Yes now everything is added to git. You can remove git from your project if you want. Intellij has some features for that.

[lost matrix]

Are you for real?

[noble lantern]

perhaps

[charred blaze]

what

[lost matrix]

So first url is initialized. This will call getDataFolder() on your plugin variable.
Then the constructor is called. The constuctor initializes the plugin variable.
Spot the problem.

[charred blaze]

i dont know english good so if i say something that sounds like a troll dont see it as troll

why would constructor call?

plugin is already plugin

[lost matrix]

Its like:

1. Get in the car and drive away
2. Build the car

Like..

[charred blaze]

yes

you will get errors driving empty car 😄

[lost matrix]

A non-existing car

[charred blaze]

ye

[lost matrix]

And the same occurs to you.

1. initializing url calls plugin.getDataFolder()
2. plugin is initialized by the constructor

To fix this:
Learn the very basics of Java
It does not take long

[charred blaze]

i was on some java basics urls several times

are you sure i will find fix of that thing?

[lost matrix]

[charred blaze]

link me "java basics" which contains explanation of that thing

[charred blaze]

.

[lost matrix]

Any java basics tutorial explains this.
Just sit down for 2 weeks and learn them.

[charred blaze]

oh god

JUST

tell me how to fix it

i promise i will learn java

after

making this plugin

[lost matrix]

Ok. Make sure you dont rely on un-initialized variables. Initialize them in the right order.

[charred blaze]

i already know i have to initialize variables on right order

BUT HOW

[ripe urchin]

hm this is interesting. Whilst setting up my environment to get going with plugin dev, i was doing the buildtools thing to get the spigot.jar, but apparently the git part of it doesn't work?

Even after doing the git config commands to set email it refuses to work with the same error

[lost matrix]

We are not going to literally write the plugin for you.
This is not a spigot related question. Its purely a matter of basic java knowledge.
The constructor is called before the variable initializers.

[charred blaze]

"write plugin for you" fix will be max 10 lines ig

[charred blaze]

are you gonna help me or not

[noble lantern]

to be fair

it looks like your doing sqlite

[charred blaze]

yes

[noble lantern]

and if your struggling just with this

your gonna REALLY struggle once you start on that

[charred blaze]

thank you for telling useless thing

[noble lantern]

of course

[lost matrix]

Interesting. Did you take a look in the faq? This looks like a problem with your git setup.

[ripe urchin]

either i'm blind or the faq has nothing more than this

[ripe urchin]

git has always worked fine for me this far

have used it for quite some time with no issues

[lost matrix]

Try setting your credentials in the global config

[ripe urchin]

already tried

[ripe urchin]

oh nvm found the right faq

[ornate patio]

bump

I ran into a logic error trying to the method mentioned

[charred blaze]

all variables are initialized first? i mean if i use it in event or something would constructor called before?

[ripe urchin]

i'll try running with git bash to see if that works

apparently that did the trick. Seems like something is wrong with cmd's git config

git config --list returns correct user.name and user.email but the applyPatches uses the wrong one anyways so idk. Ah well it works now

[ornate patio]

sorry for the ping @lost matrix but I am using the data scoping thing you showed me so i need some clarification on this

[lost matrix]

[ornate patio]

lmfao

[lost matrix]

Sure whats up

[ornate patio]

#help-development message

this

[charred blaze]

does that means yes?

[ornate patio]

why cant i use custom emojis i would really like to use one now

[noble lantern]

bruh

[noble lantern]

i can give you a gif instead if you like

[ornate patio]

no i will not be treated like a peasant

that works

[ripe urchin]

i call pay2win

[noble lantern]

@lost matrix rn in that gif

[charred blaze]

about who

[ornate patio]

i wonder

[kindred valley]

hello how can i directly input main method in intellij

[reef lagoon]

Main

[kindred valley]

when creating the class

[ornate patio]

bump

[quaint mantle]

Dude

I was having the same issue

What did u do

I just said fuck it and downloaded paper

[ripe urchin]

use git bash and not cmd

[quaint mantle]

To run the buildtools?

[ripe urchin]

for some reason cmd screwed up on the git credentials when running the applyPatches

git bash just worked fine

yeah buildtools

[ripe urchin]

if you look in the error you see fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'MYNAME@DESKTOP-68O5DT1.(none)'), and i very much know that i have user.email set correctly in git config (so nothing auto-generated/detected from some registry values). Even verified with git config --list

[charred blaze]

this part didnt had error before

i added this in listener

no no no

im making discord bot

[charred blaze]

in plugin

[noble lantern]

why are you sprinting before learning to run

SQLlite, discord bot

all in a mc plugin

for your first time ever learning java

[charred blaze]

i coded several plugins before

so its not first time

[noble lantern]

If youve coded several plugins you would of known what was wrong here

sorry simple truth

[true shuttle]

hey how do I teleport a player to a different dimension? I've tried googleing it but cant find anything

[charred blaze]

but i dont know

[noble lantern]

You just teleport them to a Location in that dimensions world

World#getSpawnPoint is a method you can send them too iirc

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/World.html#getSpawnLocation()

it is

[true shuttle]

oh ok i think i know what u mean

lemme check the docs

[noble lantern]

Bukkit.getWorld(someWorld).getSpawnLocation();

[true shuttle]

thx

[noble lantern]

and just tp them to that Location

[true shuttle]

oh gotcha, ty

[charred blaze]

plugin is null?

[noble lantern]

this is the same thing smile was telling you

what code is giving the error

[ornate patio]

Good evening I would like to know how to block the bungeecord command (server) because I am creating a login plugin for my minecraft server. Players can connect without registering or logging in because of the command. Can you please tell me what to do please?

[charred blaze]

How To Force It To Run Constructor?

[noble lantern]

You dont need to force it lol you just initialize the class with the given constructor parameters

eg new ThatClassName(AnyParamter, GoInHere, AndHere);

[charred blaze]

where to do that

[noble lantern]

sorry i dont know much about bungeecord

[charred blaze]

in main?

[noble lantern]

it depends

Thats something you should really know, its your code after all

Does it need to get initialized on the plugin enabled? If so it likely goes in onEnable

mike the bungeecord ninja

[vocal cloud]

Sounds like cracked MC stuff to me 🤮

[noble lantern]

maybe?

oh yeah likely is

[true shuttle]

huh it doesnt seem to be working...

[charred blaze]

my JDABuilder already registers that class so i may interrupt it?

or not maybe?

[noble lantern]

Whats it doing?

[ornate patio]

Okay

[noble lantern]

the constructors already regsitered by doing that

the new keyword initializes the given constructor for said class

[true shuttle]

nothing

[noble lantern]

send the code your using

Any errors? Is your server thread stalled? Try /tps

[charred blaze]

what to put in here?

[noble lantern]

sigh

its your constructor

so whatever your constructor is, you pass the needed variables to the class constructor

[true shuttle]

server's fine, here's the code:
Location worldSpawn = Bukkit.getWorld("world").getSpawnLocation();

[noble lantern]

and what are you doing with that variable

you should be passing it to Player#teleport(Location);

[true shuttle]

player.teleport(worldSpawn);

yep

[noble lantern]

and it does nothing?

[true shuttle]

yea

[noble lantern]

sec

[true shuttle]

ive done some basic troubleshooting and the code is running, its just that part that isnt working

[noble lantern]

whats the return value of that method

it returns a boolean

log it if you can, should be false if its failing

[charred blaze]

wha

can i use constructor as a variable?

[noble lantern]

no, your constructor is a constructor

@true shuttle i got an idea if its false so lmk

[noble lantern]

you pass arguments (Variables) TO your constructor

[charred blaze]

i dont need to pass variable in other classes

[noble lantern]

Yes you do if your constructor requires it

[charred blaze]

wdym

[noble lantern]

sorry typo

class Something
    public Something(String str) {
    }
}

new Something("A String");

An example of passing arguments to a class constructor

[charred blaze]

a

[true shuttle]

ok so i figured it out:
it was in a listener for portal teleport, so basically when u enter a nether portal it teleports you to a different dimension. However, cuz it was doing the teleport code when they were being tp'd to the nether, the nether tp code took priority or something. I fixed it by running the tp on a slight delay

[ornate patio]

General design question:
So I've implemented a kind of design that loads and unloads "families" to and from memory, similar to this: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/working-with-data.562421/

But my question is how would I create a command to select a family at random (either loaded or unloaded)? I can't just query the database because it is not always up to date.

[true shuttle]

thx for the help tho

[noble lantern]

ahh yeah gotta let current teleport event finish first haha

[charred blaze]

you mean something like this?

[true shuttle]

yep. I just had to do a delay of 1 lol

[noble lantern]

Why is the database not always up to date?

Sounds like some type of design flaw

[noble lantern]

Yes but with an actual variable instance

[charred blaze]

how to get plugin?

[noble lantern]

dependency injection, or if your in your main class already, the this keyword

You should really go learn some java basics

its gonna help you so much

[charred blaze]

uhum

so

it will run constructor now?

[charred blaze]

i will after this plugin.

[ornate patio]

no not really

its intended

I need to rapidly access certain parts of data

hold on brb

[charred blaze]

umm

why does this returns me a nothing? System.getProperty("user.dir"))

when im trying to print this System.out.println(url + " " + System.getProperty("user.dir")); it prints

[ornate patio]

ok

i need to rapidly access the data

so I'm basically storing whatever is in use in ram

and then every 10 or so minutes I'm flushing it, saving the current state to the database

[ornate patio]

bump pls

[summer sapphire]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

forgive me, as im not very familiar with JVM languages

but

whats the best way to check if a Player stored in a variable is equal to CommandSender sender?

[opal wedge]

if(sender.equals(player))

[noble lantern]

dont flush just push and keep your data in memory

your memory should act like a buffer between your server and your database engine

[ornate patio]

Yeah I push all the data to my database, but then also unload any data that isn't needed anymore

such as players that aren't online anymore

[noble lantern]

You should only read and set from in store memory values (Unless say a player joins, then you call a get to the database)

Then every 5 minutes in a async task timer save all the data thats currently in the map

[noble lantern]

Just unload it when the log off

[ornate patio]

yeah i do

[noble lantern]

unload and async save

[ornate patio]

but if I want to access the data of an offline player (which is not too common)

I'll load the data for it to be unloaded later during the flush

[noble lantern]

or just dont store it if its not too common

get it use it forget about it

only cache things that you want to stay in memory long term eg your player data thats active

for offline players 100% you can use async calls, youll have 0 lag if you do it right, and you can call your database multiple times for the players

[ornate patio]

can I use async calls for a command?

[noble lantern]

yes

just

when you access anything on bukkit

eg sendming messages, getting blocks, whatever

throw it un a runTask/runTaskLater BukkitRunnable

[ornate patio]

but like what if the message I'm trying to send relies on the results of the database query

[noble lantern]

itll throw it back to main through for you that way

create a callback function on completion

or a CompletableFuture

[ornate patio]

sorry im lost lmfao

Im not too familiar with multithreading on java, i come from other languages

[noble lantern]

since your not gonna be storing the OfflinePlayer when you get them you save yourself loads by not having to deal with persistance between threads

I would look into CompletableFuture its a really nice class

and has exactly what you need, runAsync then back onto main thread

Youll have to google guides about those or ping conclure, im abt to take a nap haha

maybe hyper knows

[ornate patio]

wait so heres the thing

so what you're saying is that I need to make a seperate method to retrieve unloaded data and not store it right

i think?

[noble lantern]

yes and make sure the call is always async (Just the database call)

when you get the result, you can supply is synchronus with CompletableFuture

if no one shows you how to do it while im gone i will

i rly gtg now tho

[ornate patio]

alright thats fine

I'll just ask something else for someone else to answer

[noble lantern]

ask Conclure when they have time

taught me lots

[ornate patio]

so what If I have command that uses this method, but the data actually is loaded? Wouldn't it cause desync problems?

[ornate patio]

alright

I just don't see how this whole structure works

let me draw something rq

[noble lantern]

before you execute the async call you can check your cache (on main thread, its super cheap after all it should just be map.get()) if the data happens to exist

at least i hope your datas stores in a hashmap

[ornate patio]

yeah it does

in a ConcurrentHashMap

[noble lantern]

its not a structure

its logic

[noble lantern]

HashMap is typically fine

[ornate patio]

idk how to explain this ima just draw something lmao

you can nap if you want im not gonna hold u hostage here

[noble lantern]

even with the multithreading at hand

You're not interacting asynchronously with your cache so concurrency won't matter as it's not across threads

even then

HashMap is decently safe on its own accross threads

(iirc)

[wet breach]

no its not

[noble lantern]

oh shit frostalf here

https://tenor.com/view/meerkat-popup-peeking-cute-hello-gif-4936708

sneaky

[wet breach]

only for a few minutes, have to get ready to go do more things with tires 😛

[noble lantern]

what happened to your tires?

Did someone harm them?

[wet breach]

yeah, they are harmed everyday where I work

[ornate patio]

ffs i dont even know how to draw what im trying to say

[noble lantern]

IMO

[wet breach]

Anyways, hashmap is fine across threads so as long as you are not writing to it while reading especially from multiple threads. If all you are doing is just reading then yes it will be fine. Otherwise use ConcurrentHashMap

[noble lantern]

bukkit ban api is shit

use your own with uuids

not for uuids

[wet breach]

that was mojangs doing

[noble lantern]

api wise tho, you can ban via UUID and it sucks

[ripe urchin]

What's the event when a player right clicks an entity (in this case a zombie)?

[noble lantern]

yeah he prolly does want that then

since hes gonna load data in AsyncJoinEvent then shove it to cache

[noble lantern]

PlayerInteractAtEntityEvent

iirc

might have scuffed the name a lil

There is no Methods for it

Its just name and IP

[young knoll]

I think you pass a uuid as a string to the name one

[noble lantern]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/BanList.Type.html

[young knoll]

But I could be wrong

[noble lantern]

maybe

never tried, but i saw that api and i was like hell naw

[wet breach]

this is correct

[noble lantern]

this is literally the spigot discord

[ripe urchin]

thanks. Looked it up and there's also the one without "at" that has no location

[noble lantern]

thats the same thing

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/BanList.html

BanList has 2 types

names and IPs

[wet breach]

always has

[noble lantern]

but idk if uuid is handled in names

[wet breach]

for like years

[noble lantern]

so i always avoid that api

true, but ide prefer a ban directly by uuid

and when checking if the player names changed it wont show in banlist

[wet breach]

if you use a player name the server will lookup their UUID

[noble lantern]

not sure if the ban list automatically syncs it

i wish the docs gave more info

like target of the ban is generic asf

when you have 2 list types

[wet breach]

instead of guessing from the method, should look at how it is implemented instead to get a better idea what it does o.O

[noble lantern]

but grrr javadocs >:((

god that sounds sketchy to me haha

[wet breach]

the ban api is pretty basic, but you don't need it to be anything super advanced either lol

[noble lantern]

i just make my own list, i dont trust that entire section of bukkit xD

dont you have to kick the player one tick later

or was that finally fixed

and can just call it directly

[wet breach]

think that was fixed

but you will have to test first to see

[noble lantern]

have you tested?

I did the exact same plugin in like uhmm

1.12ish

i got an exception with banning then kicking without a runnable

lemme see if i still have that project

doubt it tho

sadness i lost that src

yep thats true

and when they leave/rejoin they cant do it

[obsidian roost]

is net.minecraft.world the same as net.minecraft.server? I'm trying to learn NMS stuff but all my imports end in .world instead of .server

[ocean lion]

would I use the PlayerInteractEvent if I want something to happen when you R-click another player?

[eternal oxide]

No Bukkit World is Level in MC

[obsidian roost]

ah i see, how would i use NMS imports then with spigot?

[crisp steeple]

EntityInteractEvent

[eternal oxide]

You don;t unless you have a very specific need for NMS

[ornate patio]

here

[eternal oxide]

Always use teh Spigot API first. Only use NMS if there is no API for it

[obsidian roost]

unless there is a way for an entity like a zombie to target a skeleton in the spigot API, i believe i need NMS

[ornate patio]

my question is, what if the data method 2 is trying to retrieve is cached? if it instantly updates the database, it'll get overriden

[eternal oxide]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/Mob.html#setTarget(org.bukkit.entity.LivingEntity)

[obsidian roost]

setTarget is only for players though (or atleast ive been told)

[eternal oxide]

any LivingEntity

includes Mobs

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

[sharp token]

I'm wondering if it's possible to save the contents of a chest to a gson file

even if the items inside are custom items

[eternal oxide]

Yes, all ItemStacks are serializable

[obsidian roost]

yes, I was told here that it was pretty much only possible with NMS

yeah I've got to that part. I've tried setTarget in the past with problems but I guess I used Entities instead of LivingEntities

[ivory sleet]

wait r u modelling data transfers and accesses here?

[sharp token]

i want to basically have a admin shop area where i can sell stuff that you can't find in vanilla like spawners, etc. And have enchanted stuff for sale, etc. My idea was to have a command to create a chest and if you're the owner you can edit the contents of the chest, and when a player clicks an item inside, they buy it but it doesn't move from the chest itself

[ornate patio]

kinda but in a horrible way

[sharp token]

do you think this is the best way to go with this

[ornate patio]

im having trouble explaining it

[young knoll]

No, PlayerInteractEvent is correct

[ornate patio]

I'm storing online players and families in cache. All changes will be made to the cache, and every 10 minutes the database will update whatever is in the cache

[crisp steeple]

entityinteractevent is called when you right click an entity?

[young knoll]

No

[ornate patio]

But there are some cases where I need to access offline player data, but I'm not sure how to go about that

[young knoll]

Actually wait PlayerInteractEvent is also wrong

PlayerInteractEntityEvent

[eternal oxide]

Yes but you may have issues with gson as I believe it will have issues with enchantments as you can;t instance ItemMeta

[ornate patio]

Right now I just have it so that whenever I access a player or family, it stays in the cache until the 10 minute interval happens when its removed

[eternal oxide]

yaml works fine though

[crisp steeple]

oops yeah forgot it was playerinteractentity

[ivory sleet]

ah okay okay

so you have an expiring in memory cache

[ornate patio]

sorta

[ivory sleet]

and you're asking about the accessibility of offline users?

[ornate patio]

yes

[ivory sleet]

well one thing first

you should not let your online players be invalidated our timed out from the cache

[ornate patio]

I'm storing a bunch of PlayerData and Family objects in the cache. I can retreive these objects and modify them, so that when the next interval happens, it'll update the database

[ornate patio]

wdym

[ivory sleet]

think about it rationally

if x amount of players are playing on the server

there is ever little reason to remove a dto that represents the data of a player

however

for offline players

you might wanna load a dto for them with an expiration

since else you might run into a memory leak

[midnight patrol]

with the block break event how do you see if player broke it using favorable tool
(i know ive seen it somewhere i just cant seem to find the method)

[ripe urchin]

What would be the code to make a spawned zombie entity not catch on fire? it is invunerable and no AI, but it still burns in sunlight/lava

[ornate patio]

what is a dto

[ornate patio]

im not removing it

[eternal oxide]

put a skelly skull as a helmet

[ornate patio]

i'm just simply updating the database

and removing any players that still aren't online

[sharp token]

i don't have any experience using yaml, do you have resources where I can learn how to use yaml with minecraft?

[ornate patio]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/Entity.html#setFireTicks(int)

i think

there's also setVisualFire but I've never used it

[ripe urchin]

i tried that and from what i saw it just vanishes current fire but not future fires

[ornate patio]

create a loop then

[ripe urchin]

and this is just how long an entity should be burning for

[eternal oxide]

just put a helmet on it

[ornate patio]

you can set it to 0

[eternal oxide]

it won;t catch fire then

[ripe urchin]

yeah i'll give it a skelly helmet

[umbral bear]

Hi y'all, i need help, i was trying to recreate the Mjolnir (Marvel Thor's Hammer) in minecraft just for fun, and i wanted to an ability where you could hit the ground and launch the mob in the air (as if they where hit by a punch bow), i managed to do the particle animation but now i have no clue on how to 1) check if the mob is inside or not the shockwawe and 2) launch the actual mob, any ideas?

[sharp token]

@eternal oxide https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-configuration/apidocs/org/apache/commons/configuration2/JSONConfiguration.html#JSONConfiguration--

[umbral bear]

i mean technically i could check the location of the mob by the location of the particle as they are spawned

[sharp token]

what do you tyhink about using this library to serialize enchanted items

[eternal oxide]

https://gist.github.com/graywolf336/8153678

[grim ice]

man im bored

[sharp token]

this works well with custom/enchanted items?

[eternal oxide]

yes

[sharp token]

thank you so much

you're the best

[ornate patio]

im so lost idk what to do

Can I just post all my data management classes for someone to review

[umbral bear]

.

[main dew]

Hi I have problem I try update my plugin to java 17 but I have problem java public static void addDependency(File file) throws NoSuchMethodException, MalformedURLException, InvocationTargetException, IllegalAccessException { Method addURL = URLClassLoader.class.getDeclaredMethod("addURL", URL.class); addURL.setAccessible(true); addURL.invoke(URLClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader(), file.toURI().toURL()); } old method to load libraries from external jar stop working and I don't have any idea how fix it 😅

[eternal oxide]

if your library is on maven central you can use the libraries entry in the plugin.yml

[ornate patio]

Data management pain

[main dew]

Really? How? 😅

[sharp token]

@eternal oxide this is using paper which uses a different method to serialize and deserialize

upon converting to the alternative method that works with spigot, it's asking for a map

[eternal oxide]

libraries:
   - com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:4.9.0```

[young knoll]

You can fairly easily copy the paper method into your plugin

But it does require NMS

[eternal oxide]

I don't do Paper

[young knoll]

It just uses NBT to serialize to a byte array

[sharp token]

what do I do with this library

oh nvm sorry

[eternal oxide]

You don't, it wasn't to you

[sharp token]

so what's your idea for the hashmap its asking for

[ornate patio]

#999803116243406929 bump

[eternal night]

what are you doing there xD

with paper and item to byte[]

[quaint mantle]

I'm having trouble getting the contents of a barrel

[lost matrix]

Cast the BlockState to Barrel and get the Inventory

[quaint mantle]

That's what I did

I'm getting AIR through all slots

[lost matrix]

Show your code

[quaint mantle]

https://pastebin.com/zK2wDxxY

[lost matrix]

Using a stream just to pipe it into a forEach is really bad

[quaint mantle]

It's just for testing

[lost matrix]

In which context is this code run?

More code pls

[quaint mantle]

I'm also having trouble clearing Container's inventory contents

https://pastebin.com/TCAbVFz2

I tried using Containter#getInventory#clear but nothing

[lost matrix]

This loop is really inefficient

[quaint mantle]

I did Container#update afterwards aswell

[lost matrix]

Get the TileStates for the chunks

[young knoll]

Don’t update after changing inventory

[quaint mantle]

Why not?

Thank you, it seems to work now

[young knoll]

With packets you could

[native gale]

Anyone knows why would this happen?

[north mural]

Be careful with the number of spaces you leave, it should be 2 and try this softdepend: [PlaceholderAPI]

[eternal oxide]

softdepend does not control load order

[ornate patio]

Hey @lost matrix could you have a look in #999803116243406929 whenever you’re free

[native gale]

And how do I ensure my plugin loads before another one?

[eternal oxide]

depend affects load order.softdepend just says load me anytime but I'd like this other plugin to be around

if you are not full depend you need to setup your access of any other softdepend after it has loaded

delayed from your onEnable

[native gale]

Well, it makes softdepend mega-ultra-useless I'd say

[eternal oxide]

pretty much. but at least you don;t get any warnign messages about accessing a plugin you are not depend or softdepend on 😦

[native gale]

Mkay, whatever, thanks anyway

[eternal night]

Can you show more of the log

[native gale]

Are you talking to me?

[dusk flicker]

just show a different item to different players?
more context would be good

just listen for the pick up event, check a boolean, boom change it

Can use PDC to guarantee its the right item, etc

?pdc

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-guide-to-1-14-persistentdataholder-api.371200/

[young knoll]

You could do that too

Let me check which packets

[dusk flicker]

Would you even needs to use packets for that Coll?

Woulden't using the event of the item leaving the inventory (one of the inventory events, cba to remember what one) be enough to do it?

[young knoll]

PacketType.Play.Server.WINDOW_ITEMS, PacketType.Play.Server.SET_SLOT

You don’t need to use packets, no

But it does make it easier

[dusk flicker]

For having the same item in one chest viewable by two people and them looking different you'd prob need to use packets

[eternal oxide]

Why not lock items to a team on pickup and never change them? Much simpler

[young knoll]

Yep

The lore only exists on the client

[dusk flicker]

Yeah so you would want to use the packets Coll sent as far as I am aware; I'm not a person that messes with packets lol

[carmine nacelle]

Is there an easy way to set a tile block's PDC to a PDC object?

like, I have a container, set some values on it

then gotta update the block

basically a for loop to loop through the keys of one pdc and set the other ones keys

[golden turret]

How can I check that a BoundingBox will fit in somewhere?

Lets say I have a 3x3x3 BoundingBox and I want to check if it can pass the door, how can I do that?

[sharp token]

It's reading the last line from the textfile as "null", how do I fix it? @eternal oxide

[subtle folio]

Can I get the slot of an itemstack in p.getInventory().getContents()?

[sharp token]

or whoever is available

[golden turret]

yes. The array index

[subtle folio]

How?

[golden turret]

the getContents returns an ItemStack[]

[ripe urchin]

You’re reading a line, checking if it’s not null. Then you read the next line to append. You then read another line to check for not null. Read the next line for appending

You’re constantly alternating between reading a line for not null and reading a line for appending

[sharp token]

So in that case, should I do (str = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null)

[ripe urchin]

Yes

[sharp token]

I ended up using .ready() like this

it's a good method

thank you though @ripe urchin !

[carmine nacelle]

Help 🙂

[buoyant viper]

String content = "";
String line;

while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
content += line;
}

ur reading 2 lines at once in ur code

u were also losing half of ur lines

[ornate patio]

bump in #999803116243406929

[ornate patio]

pls my brain hurts lmao

[quaint mantle]

StringBuilder

[buoyant viper]

humorously enough, compiler usually converts it to that anyway

or at least it does for me

[quaint mantle]

Not for older versions

[fleet comet]

How would I add combat tag to my plugin?

[limber wolf]

Trying to add a spigot build to a architectury project:

> Configure project :
Architect Plugin: 3.4.138
Architectury Loom: 0.11.0.275

> Configure project :common
architectury's common() is deprecated, use common(String... platforms) instead

> Configure project :spigot
fabric-installer.json not found in classpath!

> Task :spigot:compileJava FAILED
warning: Supported source version 'RELEASE_8' from annotation processor 'org.gradle.api.internal.tasks.compile.processing.TimeTrackingProcessor' less than -source '17'
1 warning

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':spigot:compileJava'.
> java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/objectweb/asm/tree/MethodNode

the only documented case of this error was using some weird forge bukkit hybrid which I suppose has a bad mixed classpath but it probaly should be different in this case

[waxen plinth]

Bukkit.setCombatTag(30); // 30 seconds

[fleet comet]

oh

[waxen plinth]

Fake news

Your question is pretty vague

If you're asking how to implement a combat tag feature, you can use a map to track the last time each player was damaged

Every time they are damaged, associate their UUID with the current time in a Map<UUID, Long>

Then when they log off you check it that timestamp in the map is <30 seconds ago (or whatever your combat tag duration is)

If it is, you kill them

[sharp token]

thank you, I ended up just using .ready(), much simpler

[fleet comet]

oh, its that simple?

[willow widget]

how could I get a material object from a string? 🙂

[waxen plinth]

Material.valueOf

[noble lantern]

Material.getMaterial(String);

[willow widget]

ty uwu

[noble lantern]

use getMaterial valueOf is a build in java method

[willow widget]

oh

[noble lantern]

and you need to catch an exception to detect it was invalid

[willow widget]

alr thanks for that info too

okie okie ty

[fleet comet]

@waxen plinthwhat if they get damaged again?

[willow widget]

is there a command here to see docs? xd

[noble lantern]

also for combat tag you may wanna do packet listening for certain player actions

[willow widget]

like ?docs something ?

[noble lantern]

?jd-s

[undone axle]

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

[willow widget]

ty

[willow widget]

it doesn't throw anything (?)

I thought it would xd

[noble lantern]

valueOf does

getMaterial returns null

valueOf wont interrupt your program tho

[waxen plinth]

It throws NoSuchElementException if it's invalid

[noble lantern]

Thought it was IllegalArgumentException

my ide tweakin

[willow widget]

oh alright that's what I was wondering xd

[noble lantern]

getMaterial also has a legacy option if needed but

shouldnt rly need it

[willow widget]

how would you get a list of materials from config?

I have it set up as a list

[waxen plinth]

You can get it as a string list

[willow widget]

so I did

        this.crafteables = new ArrayList<Material>();
        for(String s: (List<String>) plugin.mainConfig.getList("Crafteables")) {
            Material m = Material.getMaterial(s);
            if(m != null)    this.crafteables.add(m);
        }

[waxen plinth]

Then do this

[noble lantern]

you would getStringList on your config then forEach((line) -> Material.getMaterial(line));

[noble lantern]

null check before adding material

[willow widget]

I'm still messed with forEach xd

[willow widget]

true ty

[waxen plinth]

List<Material> materials = list.stream().map(Material::getMaterial).toList();

[ornate patio]

hey burchard do you think you can help me with my problem from earlier

[willow widget]

edited

[noble lantern]

is it possible to add filter for null values?

[ornate patio]

been banging my head against a wall for awhile

[noble lantern]

if so that would be poggers

[golden turret]

no

actually maybe

[noble lantern]

sad

oh?

[golden turret]

.filter(s -> s != null)

[noble lantern]

i dont rly use the streams too often

ahh

[waxen plinth]

List<Material> materials = list.stream().map(Material::getMaterial).filter(Objects::nonNull).toList();

[noble lantern]

bam

[limber wolf]

get codegolfed

[noble lantern]

one liner

[willow widget]

I don't use streams at all xd don't know how yet

should learn tho

[waxen plinth]

I also have a config library you could use

[willow widget]

for wut?

[waxen plinth]

You just define a List<Material> and the library handles the rest

[willow widget]

oh nice

what's the lib?

[ornate patio]

#999803116243406929 bump

[waxen plinth]

https://github.com/Redempt/RedLib/wiki/Config-Manager

RedLib comes with a hell of a lot more than just the config library

[willow widget]

ty, might use it for another project, this thing is for tomorrow and I don't wanna mess the code more than needed hehe

[waxen plinth]

But the config library is certainly very nice

[waxen plinth]

Feel free to DM me if you need help with it, I also have a support discord server linked in the readme

[willow widget]

just noted the link, will do c:

[fleet comet]

Can somebody critisize my new plugin, cause i needa fix my shitty code
https://github.com/horizonstudiosmc/horizon

just dm me some stuff. so i wake up and say, ya know what time it is

[noble lantern]

whats with these static variables in your main class

convert to dependency injection

Thx, btw

[willow widget]

Will Player#setBedSpawnLocation() set the players default spawn?

[fleet comet]

yeah ik that

its just gonna be a pain

[willow widget]

Has anyone had an issue using line breaks on yaml files? xd
I got

regreso-iniciada: >
    &e¡Bienvenid@ de vuelta &a{PLAYER}&e a SpainMC WW1!
    \n&cSalir del juego durante la guerra puede hacer que no vuelvas, te quedan

but that \n is sent on mc literally as "\n" and not as a line break

wdym?

it shouldn't be a string?

[carmine nacelle]

Sooo im setting the honey level of a beehive, right

im setting it to its max and calling #update, it doesnt work

                                hiveData.setHoneyLevel(hiveData.getMaximumHoneyLevel());
                                enteredHiveBlock.update(true);

[willow widget]

The code using that is...

event.getPlayer().sendMessage(Utils.color(            joinStringReplace(plugin.mainConfig.getString("General.regreso-iniciada"),event.getPlayer())));

and joinStringReplace returns a String, what should it return then?

[willow widget]

tbh I haven't worked with that but for some other stuff like item data and such you usually do Item.setMeta(myUpdatedMeta) or something like that, maybe you need to do that with the hive object you got (?) not sure tbh

[lunar mica]

The easiest way:
p.sendMessage(line1);
p.sendMessage(line2);

[carmine nacelle]

I think I figured it out

gotta set the block data again i believe

[willow widget]

literally just said that 🤡 xd

[willow widget]

I mean... yeah I guess

[carmine nacelle]

close enough

[willow widget]

but that can have issues when the user gets the messages as

• my p.sendmsg(l1)
• someone sends a message in this right milisecond
• my p.sendmsg(l2)

[drowsy helm]

show us the entire stack trace
