why doesnt this work

[craggy galleon]

hey guys, i was making a quest npc but the skript would not work here's the skript

on right click on entity: if name of entity is "&6Veteran": if player has 4 redstone dust named {redstone} if {quest1} is 0: send message "&c[&6War Veteran&c]&7: Great! Now turn your {firstaxe} &7into your first axe!" to player add 1 to {quest1}

[proven cliff]

any errors when you reload the skript

and also did you set {redstone} to anything

and did you set {quest1} to 0

and did you set {firstaxe} to anything and you need to put %% around it for it so send it

@craggy galleon

and you should do {quest1::%player's uuid%} instead of {quest1}

You should also debug your code to see where it fails.
Might also be worth setting the variable to the item, not the name: player has 4 of {redstone}

[craggy galleon]

no

[craggy galleon]

yes

[craggy galleon]

yes i did

[pastel granite]

Then

• elaborate past “not working”
• debug it

[proven cliff]

.

[proven cliff]

.

[proven cliff]

Then the %% part

[craggy galleon]

yes i did that i just forgot on this one

[craggy galleon]

ok will do

[craggy galleon]

it said no errors in the skript itself I also looked through console and didn't see anything there

is it because I used an external npc source?

the plugin is called Fancy Npcs

[sullen orbit]

what do you mean "does not work?" is it that, nothing happens when you click the npc?

if that's the case, there could be like 5 problems here. you can debug them by sending messages to the player!

so you want to make sure the npc is actually an entity first. if it's not detecting you cliking the npc, then that would be the problem. so we need to find that out first

which you can do by........ (You fill in the blank)

[craggy galleon]

How would I check if it's an entity or not

[visual birch]

if ... is ...

[pastel granite]

okay, but whats not working? Which line(s)?

if you dont know,

[craggy galleon]

It's the first 2

I tested the rest with a command skript

[pastel granite]

so then most likely your 2nd line (if statement) is failing

[craggy galleon]

Probably

That or the box is not an entity

[pastel granite]

so why didnt you lead with that? or say that any of the 3 times you were asked?

[craggy galleon]

I just tested it

[pastel granite]

debug it;

  broadcast raw entity's name```

[sullen orbit]

The first one.

[sullen orbit]

yes, this is the answer to the question i was posing

[craggy galleon]

ok it is not an entity, how do I make it one or find a solution

[pastel granite]

try using clicked entity not entity, as that (probably) defaults to event-entity which is likely the player

[sullen orbit]

probably something to do with the plugin not actually spawning in an entity, i guess... you could try citizens, but i am not entirely sure if that will work.

(and yeah you can get citizens for free, you just have to look in a weird place)

because idk if citizens makes entities either

[craggy galleon]

Ok

[craggy galleon]

Ok thank you, I just never went to those alternate because I thought they would put a virus on my pc

[craggy galleon]

I will try that as soon as we make it an entity
