How to make icon action bar

[umbral talon]

Hey i want to make icon like on the infuse pluggin as my action bar with a custom texture

[spring fulcrum]

start by creating a font in your resourcepack

then you can use "<unicode:whatever you used>" in your code

font in a resource pack

it’s retexture unicode

[umbral talon]

alr

is there any tutorial on yutube for that?

[lime quiver]

you don’t need one

pack -> assets -> namespace -> font -> default.json -> retexture your symbol

pack -> assets -> namespace -> textures -> custom -> texture.png

[candid rune]

In newer versions, they allowed textures in text components known as “objects”:

Accidentally pinged you, sorry

[languid thunder]

I'm actually a little confused on how you'd still use it. Because my font is in an asset folder called icons -> font -> icons, than with the unicode being something like this 🪐.

How would I do that in skript?

[lime quiver]

you send the action bar of the emoji

[languid thunder]

I'm just doing something like this

    trigger:
        send "<font:icons>🪐" to player```

I found reference for the font: online, but haven't gotten it to work

[lime quiver]

it’s because your font is called icons.json

it’s supposed to be default.json

[languid thunder]

So can I not have it in a differently named json file?

[lime quiver]

dont see the reason why you’d need that

but no you can’t

[languid thunder]

Dam that genuinely sucks

[lime quiver]

how so?

[storm kestrel]

u can, i can give example when im at home

[lime quiver]

you also didnt send it as a text component

[languid thunder]

Oh? Awesome

[languid thunder]

I just want files to be in order and not mixed up with other stuff

[languid thunder]

Why would I do that? How would that go into skript?

[storm kestrel]

nvm u have set it up correctly,
you would just need to send it as component

currenly you sending it as pure string

or use minimessage w skbee, either way its almost the same

[languid thunder]

How would I do that?

[storm kestrel]

im not sure for component, i always use mini message (using skbee)

its just like send mini message from "<font:myfont>"

[storm kestrel]

did this send anything to you though? and how it look like?

[languid thunder]

would that only target the minecraft asset folder within my resource pack? Or could it target another asset folder?

[languid thunder]

lemme test again

[languid thunder]

    trigger:
        send "<font:padding>\uE030 Hi" to player```

I tried this, came out like this

[storm kestrel]

okay, first of all, are you sure sending \uE030 as a string will automatically convert it to the correct char?
second of all, always do font:default right after using the custom font else it will try to use the font for all character after, or use <reset>
third of all, can you send your pack structure?

mainly the paths to your font, the texture, and the inside of your json (for the font)

[lime quiver]

because the format youre using is the text component format

you NEED to use text components since youre formatting it that way

[storm kestrel]

yeh but see their screenshot, its being parsed

🤷‍♂️

[lime quiver]

it shouldn’t

[storm kestrel]

well, what we know lol, they might using diff version or something
either way it works, i just need their pack structure

[lime quiver]

send whats in your default.json file

and you don’t have to use text components at all

you just have to send the unicode characters

and i also dont see why youre not using action bars

oh and also this is not your post

[storm kestrel]

oh yea wtf
