Setting Multiple blocks (No Lag)

In one of my plugins I'm working on, I have to change 80 blocks into another block, and it's causing a bit of lag. I have all of the 80 block locations set into another class, and in the main class I retrieve those locations and set them to gold blocks. Here is the exact code I am using:

Code:java

Blocks.block1.getBlock().setType(Material.GOLD_BLOCK);

Imagine this same thing 80 times. It lags quite a bit, so would anyone know of a faster way to set that many blocks? *Maybe storing the blocks in like a config, and getting the locations from the config?*

 

That will delay the method even more . You could store all the Locations in a list and looping through the list and setting the block type. This will make your method a bit smaller but it will take the same time. I dont think you can make that faster.

 

Hmm, I'll do a few tests. Also, I was looking at this post:

But they dont use the Bukkit API . If you dont use the api you have to take care of such ugly things like relection and obfuscated code. But gomeow said "There will a method in CB to do this soon hopefully" so that you can use tha api. Maybe he can say something about this

 

Well, after doing some testing I've concluded that setting 80 blocks wasn't the cause of lag, I have to look elsewhere in the code . I am always up for ways to shorten my code, though!

 

Squid_Boss good luck

 

Thanks.
