[tawdry onyx]

Im fairly new to scripting and i have no prior experience with anything else significant and i want to make a zipline that takes you diagonally and upwards but can also go the other way, can anyone help me please

[hot arch]

not very beginner friendly imo but what i would probably do, is stuff with rideable mounts and vectors

[tawdry onyx]

Ah ok I’ll learn a lil bit more first

Do you need it to be movable (like an item that can then be removed) or is it just designed to be in a fixed position for like a spawn, or a map?

[tawdry onyx]

zipline from one island to the other and back

its a short distance

[fickle ledge]

The distance really doesn't matter tbh. So it's a fixed one right?

[tawdry onyx]

expand

[fickle ledge]

What do you mean with "expand"?

[tawdry onyx]

like expand on fixed

[fickle ledge]

Well, not sure what you are saying. An approach or the zipline would be making the structure with block displays to make it look fancy, then detecting when a certain block is clicked for example, and when that happens activate a function perhaps to make the player move from the starter point to the end in multiple steps

[tawdry onyx]

yeah thats what im kinda going for

[fickle ledge]

It won't be super smooth, but if you wanna make a perfect contraption the difficulty will be a lot higher

[fickle ledge]

Have you made any Skript before?

[tawdry onyx]

not really 😅

[fickle ledge]

There's a lot of good documents online to check the sintax, personally I use SkriptHub

Very poorly explained, the structure is always similar; you always start with an event (for example, detecting the player click), then you can add conditions (like checking if it's near an specific coordinate in a specific world) and then you execute an expression (like repeating a certain tp 10 times)

You have also some really good references made by Sovdee, I recommend you take a quick look before starting

Once you've got the idea, and start writting some code based on the expressions you have in your skript version, I can help you find exactly what you need or tell you the specific way to format it
