Pushback on barrier touch

[twin iron]

I want to make a skript so that if a player touches a barrier in certain worlds, they get pushed back like 2-3 blocks. Almost like a bounce. Here is what I have so far:

on move:
  player's world is "Duels" or player's world is "spawn"
  block at player's location is barrier
  push player backwards at speed 1 for 2 ticks```

However I feel like this is SUPER inefficient since like its checking every time they move any other ways?

Also side question right now I have this Skript

on projectile hit:
  event-projectile is an ender pearl
  shooter's world is "Duels"
  set {_location} to event-location
  loop blocks in radius 5 around event-location:
    loop-block is barrier
    cancel event
    delete event-projectile
    send action bar "&cʏᴏᴜ ᴄᴀɴɴᴏᴛ ᴘᴇᴀʀʟ ɪɴᴛᴏ ʙᴀʀʀɪᴇʀs" to shooter
    stop

on projectile hit:
  event-projectile is an ender pearl
  shooter's world is "spawn"
  set {_location} to event-location
  loop blocks in radius 5 around event-location:
    loop-block is barrier
    cancel event
    delete event-projectile
    send action bar "&cʏᴏᴜ ᴄᴀɴɴᴏᴛ ᴘᴇᴀʀʟ ɪɴᴛᴏ ʙᴀʀʀɪᴇʀs" to shooter
    stop```

I have to repeat the Skript to account for another world

how can I make it work for both worlds?

[stable dirge]

shooter's world is "this" or "that"

[compact sable]

block at player's location is the block where their legs are so this probably wouldnt work anyway, also yeah if this "on move" is the one that checks 20 times per second with lots of players this probably become laggy. instead, you can make a region in and above the barrier blocks and use on region enter event to trigger your pushback code
or on move on barrier block but personally i'd prefer the region one

also you can make region flags that stop enderpearls so just use that instead

[twin iron]

Can’t do it with regions, any other way?

[compact sable]

there are definitely other ways but can I ask why you can't do it with regions?

[twin iron]

Cause I have 7 Arenas each of which have 4 sides I can’t make 28 regions

Wait no not 28 regions, it’s 56 regions

I can’t make that

😂

[twin iron]

So yeah still need help with this

[stable dirge]

well if you can't do on region enter, then why not the opposite?
https://docs.skunity.com/syntax/search/id:4866

[twin iron]

Ur not leaving the region

[compact sable]

I mean you can make 56 regions it is still easier

I'm at work but I'll get back to this at some point

[stable dirge]

I see. then why have barriers to say you can't leave the area if it's just considered the same area? I'm confused

[twin iron]

No no

Ok so I have barriers around an arena

U can’t escape

Even if u tried

But I still want for if u touch any of the barriers

For there to be pushback

Like a forcefield

Yk?

[stable dirge]

you could also create fake worldborders which will do the trick, I believe SkBee has that feature

[twin iron]

No that’s not what I want. I just want of u touch a barrier in a certain world it pushes u back like a bounce 5 blocks

That’s it

But it needs to be good for preformance

[compact sable]

Are the arenas square cause you can do one big region over it all then one small region in the arena area, that way it will be way less work

I have to say any other way apart from regions will be crappy or janky imo

[twin iron]

No regions

need it per barrier block

u touch a barrier block

u bounce 5 back

[willow willow]

do you want the server to lag more or less

[twin iron]

less

but I cannot do the region thing

lmao

[willow willow]

welp you're stuck with on any movement 🤷

[twin iron]

is there nothing for on the last block of a region

like my spawn is 1 region

cant I make it so if u touch the edge u bounce back>

[willow willow]

you can check when you leave a region

[twin iron]

but ur not leaving 😢

ur just on the outside

lmao

[willow willow]

so shrink the region by 1 block in all directions

or just deal with it

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[twin iron]

ok so if I do that

then what would the code be?

[willow willow]

you know how to make a region, yes?

[twin iron]

yeah I did

it

so whats the bounceback code

[willow willow]

when you exit a region, push the player (direction from player to location of CENTER_OF_REGION) at speed X

[twin iron]

spoonfeed me plz

[willow willow]

i have better things to do

[twin iron]

java dev

not skript dev

[willow willow]

if you know how to code in one language, you understand how the process of coding works.

[twin iron]

ur indentations

[willow willow]

all coding languages use documentation

[twin iron]

and lang

are very different

[willow willow]

all coding languages return errors

[twin iron]

than java

[willow willow]

all coding languages cite examples for learning

[willow willow]

the indentation tells you when its wrong, and is basically written in barebones english

[twin iron]

        if {teleport_countdown} is not set:
                set {teleport_countdown} to 180

                  if size of all players in region "rtpportal" > 1:
                while {teleport_countdown} > 0:
                        loop all players in region "rtpportal"
                        set {_random_biome} to random element out of {"forest", "desert", "plains", "jungle"}
                        send title "&cTeleporting in %{teleport_timer}% seconds to %{_random_biome}%" to loop-player with fade in 0 stay 20 fade out 0
                        wait 1 second
                        subtract 1 from {teleport_countdown}

                  loop all players in region "rtpportal":
                teleport loop-player to location(random integer between -10000 and 10000, 80, random integer between -10000 and 10000, world "world")

                delete {teleport_countdown}
                else
                send "&cNot enough players in the region to initiate teleportation!" to player```

Heres a code im working on

everytime I fix 1 indenation

3 more pop up

its unfixable

plz explainn to me how ot fix this lmao

@willow willow ?

like whats wrong with this?

[willow willow]

stop double indenting it

you're putting two tabs where there should be one

and then other times you're putting half a tab

or just forgetting to make a section operate at all

[twin iron]

can u indent it for me?

or tell me whats wrong

[willow willow]

😐

[twin iron]

like should it be like this

[willow willow]

else -> else:

then fix your indentation

[twin iron]

        if {teleport_countdown} is not set:
                set {teleport_countdown} to 180

                  if size of all players in region "rtpportal" > 1:
                while {teleport_countdown} > 0:
                        loop all players in region "rtpportal"
                        set {_random_biome} to random element out of {"forest", "desert", "plains", "jungle"}
                        send title "&cTeleporting in %{teleport_timer}% seconds to %{_random_biome}%" to loop-player with fade in 0 stay 20 fade out 0
                        wait 1 second
                        subtract 1 from {teleport_countdown}

                  loop all players in region "rtpportal":
                teleport loop-player to location(random integer between -10000 and 10000, 80, random integer between -10000 and 10000, world "world")

                delete {teleport_countdown}
                else:
                send "&cNot enough players in the region to initiate teleportation!" to player```

whats wrong with the indentation thp

o

like where is there an error

[willow willow]

.

[willow willow]

.

[twin iron]

where is that happening

like I need examples

[willow willow]

literally the entire code

[twin iron]

is this good?

also what IDE is that?

[willow willow]

conditions using :'s require indentation afterwards

same as events

  if player's tool is a diamond sword:
    broadcast "e"```

[twin iron]

so this?

[twin iron]

ah

[willow willow]

loop needs a :

loop and while need indent

[twin iron]

this lmao?

Ah yes

[willow willow]

run it and it'll tell you the last thing thats wrong with it

[twin iron]

getting this error tho

[willow willow]

nice

[twin iron]

wats wrong

lmao

[willow willow]

surprised the parser didn't flag it

what are you else:ing

[twin iron]

the if statement?

[willow willow]

no you are elseing nothing

[twin iron]

ah

I see

like java

in that sense

[twin iron]

yes did it

already

[twin iron]

WHAT IS WRONG

LMAO

[willow willow]

it doesn't understand the if statement, so it disregards it

because it disregards it, its pretending the if statement is not there

with no if statement, it reads the else: without an if statement before it

[twin iron]

so whats wrong with the if statement

[willow willow]

idk if you can gauge the amount of players in a region bc i never care to use regions for anything

just loop all players, check if they're within the region, then if they are, add 1 to a local variable

then use that local variable instead of the size of all players in region...

[twin iron]

so how do I modify my code?

[willow willow]

https://sovdee.gitbook.io/skript-tutorials/core-concepts/variables variables if you don't understand what a local variable is

[twin iron]

    if {teleport_countdown} is not set:

This @willow willow

?

[compact sable]

😬

[twin iron]

What how do I fix it?

[compact sable]

spoon time

so your original issue is the one i will help you fix, i have no fkin clue what the code you sent is for because it isnt what you asked originally and its obviously quite broken

[compact sable]

  set {center-of-region} to location(0, 100, 0, world "Duels")
  set {region-name} to "region"
  set {lag-reducer-minimum-distance-from-center-of-region-check} to 10

on join:
  wait 2 ticks
  while player is online:
    wait 3 ticks
    if "%region at player%" contains {region-name}:
      if distance between player and {center-of-region} > {lag-reducer-minimum-distance-from-center-of-region-check}:
        loop all blocks in radius 1.5 of player where [input's y coord < player's y coord]:
          if {_a} = true:
            stop loop
          if loop-block = barrier block:
            set {_a} to true
        if {_a} = true:
          add 1 to {_b}
          set {_v} to normalized vector from player to {center-of-region}
          set player's velocity to {_v}
        if {_b} = 3:
          delete {_a}
          delete {_b}

on projectile hit:
  shooter is a player
  if event-block = barrier block:
    if shooter's world = "Duels" or "spawn":
      if event-entity = ender pearl:
        cancel event
        give shooter ender pearl
        send "&4You can't ender pearl there" to shooter```

try this untested code, may or may not work. give it a go and modify it to how you want it - don't forget to change the variable settings to exactly what they should be

[compact sable]

i repeat, this is for your original issue. i have no idea wtf you've been talking about since then
