Custom NBT

[digital birch]

Docs:

custom nbt of %item% = Returns the 'minecraft:custom_data' component of an item's NBT. Modifying this will modify the original item. (This is an MC 1.20.5+ feature).
Please see Data Component Format on McWiki for more information on item NBT components.```
minecraft command:

/item replace entity @p hotbar.8 with stick[custom_data={test1:1,test2:2}] 1```
Skript:

command /test:
    trigger:
        set {_item} to player's inventory's slot 8
        set {_nbt::*} to custom nbt of {_item}
        broadcast {_nbt::*}```
I'm trying to get all the custom data values as a list in {_nbt::*}
The best solution I can think of is

command /test:
    trigger:
        set {_item} to player's inventory's slot 8
        set {_custom} to custom nbt of {_item} #forgot to add this earlier
        set {_custom} to the last length of {_custom} - 1 characters of {_custom}
        set {_custom} to the first length of {_custom} - 1 characters of {_custom}
        set {_nbt::*} to custom nbt of {_custom} split at ","
        broadcast {_nbt::*}```
Is there a better way to do it?

Uhh

You cant set a local var to something dependent on itself, as the local var hasnt been defined yet

[digital birch]

forgot to add set {_custom} to custom nbt of {_item} #forgot to add this earlier but yeah - my question stands

[rose knot]

You can check out the skbee wiki, ypu might want to use a list tag or something

[digital birch]

checked the wiki. I even said it in my initial message

Docs:
custom nbt of %item% = Returns the 'minecraft:custom_data' component of an item's NBT. Modifying this will modify the original item. (This is an MC 1.20.5+ feature). Please see Data Component Format on McWiki for more information on item NBT components.

[rose knot]

so you want to individually add each tag to the list

[digital birch]

I want to add, read and edit them

Previously I used lore of items

I want to now upgrade things

And saw that 1.21.4 offers custom_data and that SkBee supports it

There aren't many examples of it so I wanted to make a new help thread to understand them better

[digital birch]

I can go around it by doing this but this is a garbage way to handle stuff

[rose knot]

for like damage and defence stats?

[digital birch]

kinda. More like for those things:

projpenetration=
projdamage=
projdamagepenalty=
projspeed=
projbounce=
projlifetime= 
projeffect=
projeffectrange=
projtrail=
projareadamage=
projareaknockbackrange=
projareaknockbackforce=
projheadshot=```

[rose knot]

so then why not just check the tags

[digital birch]

.

I was using tags but editing them was HELL

[digital birch]

Also I need the value of those tags and not just the tags itself

[rose knot]

okay..

[digital birch]

I can do split at "=" and create local variables for each one

[rose knot]

so you want to get all the tag names in an NBT compound

[digital birch]

I want to have an easy way to operate on dozens of different tags

Like adding, editing or modifying properties

custom_data seems like a way to go

I just want to know how can I turn contents of custom_data into the list {_list::*}

To edit them

[rose knot]

and what's wrong with just NBT?

add 10 to (int tag "example" of {_NBT})

set (string tag "somethingElse" of {_NBT}) to "imEditingStuff"```

[digital birch]

That's what I was looking for

Hopefully

Where?

[rose knot]

im not sure why you wanted a list

cause then you'd have to move the list back to the NBt anyways

[digital birch]

Yeah - that's why I asked here generally for help

Because I saw my method flawed

And wanted to improve it

[digital birch]

I'll test it once I get home from work

[digital birch]

command /test:
    trigger:
        set {_item} to player's inventory's slot 8
        set {_metal1::*} to compound list tag "minecraft:custom_model_data;strings" of {_nbt}
        set {_metal2::*} to (compound list tag "minecraft:custom_model_data;strings" of nbt of {_nbt})
        set compound list tag "minecraft:custom_model_data;strings" of {_nbt} to {_metal3::*}
        set {_nbt} to nbt compound of {_item}
        set compound list tag "minecraft:custom_model_data;strings" of nbt of {_nbt} to {_metal4::*}
        broadcast {_nbt}
        broadcast "<green>%{_metal1::*}%"
        broadcast "<yellow>%{_metal2::*}%"
        broadcast "<gold>%{_metal3::*}%"
        broadcast "<red>%{_metal4::*}%"```

tried with and without minecraft: in all cases

what am I doing wrong?

I can't even get simple values like "2", "0", "0"

[digital birch]

yet alone the advanced values like those

[digital birch]

okay minecraft: is super important

        set {_s1} to string tag "minecraft:custom_model_data;strings[0]" of {_nbt}
        set {_s2} to string tag "minecraft:custom_model_data;strings[1]" of {_nbt}
        set {_s3} to string tag "minecraft:custom_model_data;strings[2]" of {_nbt}
        broadcast "{_s1} %{_s1}%"
        broadcast "{_s2} %{_s2}%"
        broadcast "{_s3} %{_s3}%"```

this one works

[digital birch]

so why lists doesn't?
