In vanilla it doesn't drop the exact number of points you collected. Rather, you lose a little for every level above 1 you had (1 level requires 7 points, later levels require +2 per level), and can recover at most 100 points. Hence, if you had 10 levels, you get back enough points to fill 5 levels and most of a 6th. 14-15 levels gets you the upper bound of about 7.5 levels.
This is not identical to vanilla, but I don't care because it gets rid of edge cases and also makes it easier to integrate with EntityDeathEvent in the future.
This will now throw an exception at the source instead of crashing when the entity is saved, which should put the blame on the correct plugin responsible for this.
This also includes magic method hacks to preserve backwards compatibility, since the fireTicks field is now protected.
This contains all of the static stuff that was previously embedded in the Entity static root. This solves a bunch of problems like circular dependencies between parent and child classes, encapsulating logic and reducing the size of the enormous Entity.php.
This is a similar refactor to the one I recently did for tiles.
- Entity::createEntity() is removed. In its place are Entity::create() (runtime creation, use where you'd use a constructor, accepts a ::class parameter, throws exceptions on unknown entities) and Entity::createFromData() (internal, used to restore entities from chunks, swallows unknown entities and returns null).
- Entity::registerEntity() is renamed to Entity::register().
- Added Entity::override() to allow overriding factory classes without touching save IDs. This allows more cleanly extending & overriding entities. This method only allows overriding registered Entity classes with children of that class, which makes code using the factory much more sane and allows to provide safety guarantees which make the code less nasty.
- Entity::getKnownEntityTypes() is renamed to Entity::getKnownTypes().
- ProjectileItem::getProjectileEntityType() now returns a ::class constant instead of a stringy ID.
- Cleaned up a bunch of nasty code, particularly in Bow.
This is better for performance because these then don't need to be reevaluated every time they are called.
When encountering an unqualified function or constant reference, PHP will first try to locate a symbol in the current namespace by that name, and then fall back to the global namespace.
This short-circuits the check, which has substantial performance effects in some cases - in particular, ord(), chr() and strlen() show ~1500x faster calls when they are fully qualified.
However, this doesn't mean that PM is getting a massive amount faster. In real world terms, this translates to about 10-15% performance improvement.
But before anyone gets excited, you should know that the CodeOptimizer in the PreProcessor repo has been applying fully-qualified symbol optimizations to Jenkins builds for years, which is one of the reasons why Jenkins builds have better performance than home-built or source installations.
We're choosing to do this for the sake of future SafePHP integration and also to be able to get rid of the buggy CodeOptimizer, so that phar and source are more consistent.
since this is an internal method, it doesn't make sense to force a single parameter that requires potentially constructing a separate object just for the parameters, so we pass primitives instead, which are also easier to typehint against.
this attribute is not visible on the client and is only used for controlling saturation depletion. It's extremely spammy and as such really shouldn't be sent over network. This has also been causing some minor client-side performance issues in survival.
