Is there any way to find out what the world seed is if it was randomly generated? I.e. No seed was entered into the config file?

Oh this is cool, thanks

It would be nice if we could override the standard UI elements via the API

Sehr cool

Just confirming that that would work fine

onPlayerChangeState

I assume this is the same for other events too?

Hi, looks like the event.setCancelled(true) calls are missing from the API for the construction events:

• PlayerDestroyConstructionEvent
• PlayerHitConstructionEvent
• PlayerPlaceConstructionEvent
• PlayerRemoveConstructionEvent

Did you register the listener?

Amusingly, if you log out whilst you are underwater the main menu scenes are also now underwater.

Not sure if this is intentional

That's weird Yes, maybe the calculation is wrong, I'll take a closer look at this issue!

-1 is supposed to show the text indefinitely, but I think 0 also works (not sure about that)

Yes it does

Oops. My mistake, too hasty. This works:

        player.showLocationTicker("test",0.0f);      

I'm assuming 0.0f will show it indefinatly?

  player.setLocationTickerText("Test", true);  

Cannot find symbol.

THe Libraries Classpath is set the the one that's in the server folder.

Ahh coolio.

It was more for database browsing ease from MySQL Workbench as I'm in there a lot anyway.

[New] SQLite and MySQL database support

Does this mean that we can use MySQL in the future for RW database instead of SQLite?

uses internal String magic

Love it.

Yes, I'm more so just concatanaging two string together, possily on a fairly regular basis (UI stuff). But this is after compilation and no nested loops or such.

So I think I may just stick with the + operator in the code as it's quicker (to write)

The main part of this error message is:

AddressInUseException: Port 4255 (UDP) is already in use!

Have you forgotten to close down a previously running server?

So having time to digest this.

Am I correct to believe that it's always going to be better to use the StringBuilder class over String?

Hi fellow plugin dudes (and game devs),

Bit of Friday night code optimization chat.

Now on my blog, around three years ago I wrote somthing that goes a little like:

"So I’ve always done it with the plus (+) operator turns out using a prefix $ is much more efficient in terms of memory usage."

//less efficient
string newString = firstString + " said hello";
//more efficient
string newString = $"{firstString} said hello";

Disclaimer: honesty I can't actually remember posting this.

So I just tried it (as I still just use the plus operator) as below:

 String firstString = "foo";
 string newString = $"{firstString} bar";

But I just get an error message. " ; expected "

I think, the problem is that this was wrongfully filed under Java (which I'm trying to compile it as), when in fact it may very well be C# code.

First off, am I right that this is C#?

Second, and more importantly, what do you think is the most optimal way of string concatination? Using the plus operator or using the String classes concat operator?

Answers about it being negligable are not accepted.

paulevs I'm interested in knowing your thoughts on this

Hi,

I've noticed a few times that the Debug Console gets spammed with NPC X IS FALLING (X, Y Z) events.

Maybe a counter with a threshold and a npc.destroy() method in required?
