P.S Never studied it before or anything like, i have totally no experience with it.

Read core code, try to understand it.
Watch some java intro videos like this for some explanations, google other stuff:

Yes, voice commands it is a good start, but assuming you don't have any experience on coding you should spend some time previously on understanding how object-oriented programming languages work and getting familiar to java sintaxis. I would recommend following official java tutorial, it is quite enough for the beginning. You can also get almost any java book and read those chapters about java essentials.
Following this path you will get the required knowledge to understand the basic stuff of our sources, plus you will be able to tweak and modify what is written and also to create some scripts based on what you have seen: command handlers in the beginning, SQL queries, npc and skill/effect handlers later on.
After mastering the basics, your next logical step would be to start reading about more advanced stuff belonging to the high level programming layer typical features, like threading and I/O (specially networking). You will then understand a rather considerable percentage of our source and you will have also a decent understanding of the java language itself. I would recommend Dough Lea's book on threading ("Concurrent programming in Java") and almost any paper on basic and advanced networking patterns.

Thx all, started making something:
Code: Select all
else if (player.isInOlympiadMode()) { mpRegenMultiplier *= 1.5; // Olympiad Mode } else if (player.isInCombat()) { mpRegenMultiplier *= 2.5; // Combat Mode }
Any error/or another way to do it better?
Also have tried to search something while player is flagged, but couldn't find anything

For check flag you can use:
Code: Select all
if (player.getPvpFlag() != 0) { player.sendMessage("Ugly and bad boy! you are flagged :( again kill any newbie, eh? NOOOOB!"); }

Maybe try simpler voice commands like: ".title <STRING>"

He didn't register it in MasterHandler.java yes. But other then that command itself works fine.

I usually don't add broadcast for things like this. It will be updated when he relogs or at some other occassion. No need for spamming.

My players expect it asap. A broadcasttitleinfo wont do any harm once in a while.
