This implementation of a visibility API check for sounds
was created by adding extra methods carrying the source entity
in WorldManager and ServerConfigurationManagerAbstract and
adding a test for canSee in the SCMA sendPacketNearby method.
This approach involves no logic copying, just method addition.
I opted to cast to WorldManager as:
1) IWorldAccess is not in CraftBukkit at the moment
2) There is no other IWorldAccess implemented in CraftBukkit,
nor is there likely to be one soon. If that day comes, easy fix.
Minecraft resets abilities based on what it knows client side, when someone dies and is in "survival," by default they should be in "survival." However, we allow modification of the PlayerAbilities, so we send this update out to the client.
Oh and, the format of the commit is like this to see if it looks any good. :)
Added two utility collections for use with PlayerChatEvents allowing lazier
initialization of events and less need to synchronize against the player
list.
Provided a hidden queue system for similar logic to pre-1.3 chat. When a
plugin is listening for the deprecated PlayerChatEvent, all chat will be
delayed to be mirror executed from the main thread. All developers are
encouraged to immediately update to the developmental Bukkit chat API as a
minimum transition for server stability.
Additionally, changes were required to bring thread-safety to the flow
logic. CopyOnWriteArrayList is the only viable means to produce thread
safety with minimal diff; using a sane pre-implemented collection would
require reworking of sections of NMS logic.
As a minor change, implemented expected functionality for
PlayerCommandPreProcessEvent. Setting the player should now change the
player executing the command.
