Hello, can you please make it possible to create messages more than 64 colors long, just like DragonCast did it?

confuser commented 10 years ago

I'm afraid I don't know what DragonCast is. Could you explain what they do?

rcl2748 commented 10 years ago

Dragoncast is bossbar automessage plguin, that looks like took your API, and simply edited it so there are no character limits for messages, and this is what they did: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/dragoncast/

I tried decompiling their plugin to find their secret, but im not very good with that stuff :) so I thought maybe you can do it, removing/extending the limits of the messages is a VERY good thing ;)

IANAL, but CC Attr ShareAlike should prevent people from making proprietary versions though, right? The licence isn't generally intended for software, but reading through the terms, it did state that you could not restrict the usage of a derivative work, not sure whether refusing to share source comes under that.

I don't mean copy-pasting code, I mean take the IDEA, and implement it

rcl2748 commented 10 years ago

so...Will it be implemented or not? please reply, thanks.

It is using a scrolling system, but it is not great as it is using only a thread for all the players of the server... If it is a big server, it may cause some lag... A better system should be added to BarAPI soon...
