Due to a bug in 2e29af3df0
which was added all the way back in March of 2016, it was unknown (potentially not at the time)
that an entity might actually change the seed of the random object.
At some point, EntitySquid did start setting the seed. Due to this shared random, this caused
every entity to use a Random object with a predictable seed.
This has caused entities to potentially generate with the same UUID....
Over the years, servers have had entities disappear, but no sign of trouble
because CraftBukkit removed the log lines indicating that something was wrong.
We have fixed the root issue causing duplicate UUID's, however we now have chunk
files full of entities that have the same UUID as another entity!
When these chunks load, the 2nd entity will not be added to the world correctly.
If that chunk loads in a different order in the future, then it will reverse and the
missing one is now the one added to the world and not the other. This results in very
inconsistent entity behavior.
This change allows you to recover any duplicate entity by generating a new UUID for it.
This also lets you delete them instead if you don't want to risk having new entities added to
the world that you previously did not see.
But for those who are ok with leaving this inconsistent behavior, you may use WARN or NOTHING options.
It is recommended you regenerate the entities, as these were legit entities, and deserve your love.
This won't happen anyways if the user has
"skip ticking for entities in chunks scheduled for unload" turned on,
but if they don't, protect from this instant killing the entity to
keep it vanilla in behavior
a player may teleport away, and trigger instant despawn
Spigot had code that returned early in chunk add/remove methods.
This was causing our code added to set current chunks and counts to
be skipped over if the entity was default not persistent but made persistent.
This was the source of many issues
Fixes#1208
When interacting with entities with an item, the client will assume
the interaction is successful, and update the held item on the
client. However, if the interaction is cancelled on the server side,
the client will still mistakenly remove/replace the item in hand.
Examples for this are milking cows with a bucket or dyeing sheep.
The bucket is replaced with milk and the dye removed from inventory.
Refresh the player inventory when PlayerInteractEntityEvent is
cancelled to avoid this problem.
The adjacent blocks of doors, double plants, pistons and beds need
to be updated manually from the server when cancelling a block break
from a player, as it otherwise causes the other parts to disappear
on the client.
This is already done for doors but only for the BlockBreakEvent,
not for PlayerInteractEvent. Move the code to a common method
and also handle the other blocks in similar ways.
The extra buffer used to decode the strings sent by the client
in the legacy ping protocol was never released. However, creating
an extra copy of the buffer just to decode it to a string isn't
actually necessary: We can just call toString() directly on the
original buffer.
Additionally, free the buffer in handlerRemoved() to handle cases
where the client never sends enough bytes to form a valid legacy
ping request.
Closes#1197
While this really undoes a lot of the desired performance gains avoiding chunk lookups,
we sadly have to accept this because we are seeing lots of bugs with entities.
Allows you to increase how far to check for a safe place to respawn
a player near their bed, allowing a better chance to respawn the
player at their bed should it of became obstructed.
Defaults to vanilla 1.
In many places where we simply want the current chunk the entity
is in, instead of doing a hashmap lookup for it, we now have access
to the object directly on the Entity/TileEntity object we can directly grab.
Use that local value instead to reduce lookups in many hot places.
This enables us a fast reference to the entities current chunk instead
of having to look it up by hashmap lookups.
We also store counts by type to further enable other performance optimizations in later patches.
This is the best way to get an entity when the world and its UUID are known.
It is faster than Server.getEntity(UUID) because it does not have to iterate all worlds
This fixes a CRITICAL missing part of the Bukkit API due to mistakes on upstream
refusing to implement the Sentient NPC baseclass of all NPC's.
Until now, the Bukkit API has not provided a way for accessing and setting
a non creature entities target.
Although Flying, Slime, Ambient, and Water mobs all supported targets internally,
you were unable to get/set it.
Now with the SentientNPC API and these API's moved down, every sentient NPC has
access to target data.
This only impacted people who used our useSnapshots new API in a plugin,
which obviously was no one as the data result was completely broken.
Merged the NPE check patch into mine since it has to handle it too.
This event is called when an entity receives knockback by another entity. The knockback can be modified in the event. If the event is cancelled the entity is not knocked back.
Also renames patch file to better express what it's doing.
It is presumed that those using this config option intend for
suffocation checks to be disabled in all instances. In doing so, they
inherently assume the advantages and issues associated with removing
said safety check.
If the community expresses a desire for more specific options regarding
the handling of this safety feature, we can investigate providing them.
