Hehe that could be the smallest plugin ever

Edit: Just thought I would add this. It's probably better to use keyboard shortcuts for this as opposed to a GUI. Because using a GUI by definition will create an extra step. The player will have to open the GUI to open pnb or ap. With a keyboard shortcut (I've just used F keys in my example) the player can get straight to pnb or ap - and isn't that the objective?

I agree with the hot keys instead of gui. Finaly understand what red was talking about with the command event, still learning. As for smallest plugin. I just made one just to enable the mouse pointer for stuck open gui's.

I looked at doing this before, but figured it was not possible.

Would be interested to see if there was a hack to get this to work

There is one other option, you could always decompile the pnb and ap jar files. Then add an event listener (maybe a keyboard key) to launch the UI and then recompile?

i beleive this can be achieved byt using the import (

import java.awt.Robot;

import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;)

edit. works on single player but not multiplayer. i must be missing something.

try {

robot = new Robot();

robot.setAutoDelay(125);

robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_T);

robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_T);

robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_SLASH);

robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_SLASH);

robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_A);

robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_A);

robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_P);

robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_P);

robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER);

robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER);

}catch (AWTException e){e.printStackTrace();

thought about it but didnt feel rite messing with others code.

There is unfortunately no showChat method in the Java version, but it will be part of the new plugin API

If you want to send a chat message to a player, you can use the sendTextMessage() method.

The PlayerChatEvent you've linked, however, is an event, as mentioned by Minotorious : It gets triggered by the game as soon as a player sends a chat message (i.e. after he presses the Return key). At this stage, it's not visible in chat yet, so you can manipulate the chat message through the API (or cancel the event if you don't want the chat message to show up). The message from the PlayerChatEvent will be broadcasted to all players (unless you cancel the event).

thank you, was trying to make it so players didnt have type commands for /ap /pnb.

Quote from Minotorious

That method simply intercepts the chat event and alters the message if your plugin wishes to do so, for example to implement a language filter for swearing

thank you for the reply

Quote from yahwho

Can you link the API page for this?

I can't find a setChat method?

https://javadoc.rising-world.n…Message-java.lang.String-

trying to build a gui for players to make plugin commands clickable. will have gui with button assigned to some plugins (/ap, /pnb).

when using the setChat() method, does it just display in chat or does it enter it into chat as if typing the command and pressing enter?

nice work

Im trying to get a test usershop set up. I know the plugin works fine since the balance is shown at top. Im stuck at creating signs and I suppose linking them to chests. Can anyone explain simply how this needs to work please?

have you installed aktive signs?

if im not mistaken its [UserShop] first line capitalization must be correct as well.

This would take a lot of work, as you'd have to add in something to the code where it can communicate between servers. Though, I believe the code for communication between servers is already in some other plugin? Maybe they can shed more light on this.

or a central location to store a database for all servers running the plugin? as you know im just starting to learn the whole java thing. that being said, i do have some more hardware should anyone be interested in the idea enough.

Quote from Only1Gopher

Getting the transactions to work between them, and saving data shouldn't be too much of an issue. One way this can be done, is use Databases to Save Transactions, as well as use Databases to also handle transactions. However, using a Database to handle transactions might not be so performance friendly in the long run, unless you have it programmed so once the transaction has been handled, that entry gets cleared out of the database

now that i think about it, to be more performance friendly...if the coin is spawned(forged) its an item that can be swapped for another item(1 coin trade 1 apple). database would only be needed to know whats in the chest and at what prices.

i think a cross server auction house would be cool as well. at a standstill on my plugin for java atm as im unsure of its future. plan on starting work on one for the unity version once there is an api

Does that mean he was able to destroy something inside a protected area? According to the log, most elements were destroyed using the creative mode removal tools (F7).

The incoming CRM and ORM packets are harmless, these packets are part of the creative mode removal tools... There is an exception in the log though regarding undo handling, that seems to be a bug (but that bug isn't related to this issue).

yes he was able to destroy things, ill look into my permissions again. i went threw them a few times trying to figure out how he had done it but couldnt figure anything out. he should not have even been able to use creative tools.

edit* i can confirm he was able to brake things in a protected area and no one else even admin can not

Quote from PresenceRusher

james1bow i already build a little log house on your server and im acutally waited for a admin to protect it

This one.

oh ok, ill get on and find it. ive been busy latly. family just got over covid a death in the family now my father in law just had a stroke. when it rains it pours

edit* got it protected. will have to find you on sometime. more than welcome to join the discord https://discord.gg/6znXFhbB

cant wait until i get my ban hammer working lol ill be sure to get him banned. PresenceRusher i noticed you on the unity server a few times, put a sign up or something and ill get your ap set up.

i have area protection setup and working, someone a griefer managed to destroy a bunch of stuff. then i was gewtting some weird crm orm stuff popping up in the logs hasnt happen since i restarted the server. just not sure what to make of it. issue is at the bottom.2021-12-08-04-52-44.log

still good! thanks red51

Do you mean the last update (i.e. 0.4), or the latest hotfix that was just released an hour ago? If the server takes a few minutes to reconnect, it could be the port checker which halts the server until all ports are open (this was actually already implemented for TCP connections, but only the recent hotfix also takes UDP into account).

Do you have access to the server console? In this case there could be an indicator what's taking to long. If it's the port checker, you will see an ongoing output like "Checking ports...." (with lots of dots behind it if it takes long). If it's not the port checker, it could be Steam which takes a long time until it's connected (Steam is fully connected if you see this message in the log: "[STEAM] Server connected, public IP -> x.x.x.x").

How did you restart the server exactly? If you kill the process, it typically takes some times until the TCP connections (for the server query port) gets closed automatically on Windows. But if you shutdown the server gracefully (either by using the "restart" or "shutdown" command), the server should be able to restart immediately.

when i said least update i meant 0.3. i have a script that kills the process, i will do a better job shutting down the server as i do get the checking port..... ive installed the hotfix and will keep an eye on it

Quote from red51

This is really strange So far this only seems to affect Windows servers, but I see no reason why that should happen (except something related to firewall etc, but it's weird that it was apparently working before)

How often do you restart your server? Do you use the built-in "restart" command (or the built-in scheduler), or do you actually kill the process and start a new one?

Could you maybe share the latest server logs (for the Logs folder)? Maybe you could send them via PM to me?

//Edit: After some investigation, it seems like the UDP port sometimes still stays active for a brief moment after shutting down the server. If the server gets restarted immediately (either by the built-in restart command, or by killing the process and restarting it manually), this results in the old UDP listener not getting closed. This only seems to happen when binding to all addresses (i.e. if no specific server ip is provided). Apparently this was already happening in 0.3 (the previous multiplayer update). We're looking for a solution and will provide a fix for this ASAP!

i had noticed in the last update if you closed the server and restarted it would take a few minutes to reconnect, i just dealt with it. the issue with players getting stuck at 5% had never happen before so i figured it was a new issue. thanks for all the hard work

i can confirm the issue, windows server 2019. ran fine until the last update. loading players get stuck at 5% with no client server requests. i simply restart the server and it works for a few hours then fails again. using pfsense for my router with a cisco 24 port switch. ive looked at all the the ports and everything is fine.
