Dyeing items using colored beacon beams from Quark | latcord | Page 1

Right click a beacon with the right item to trigger this craft.

startup script: https://github.com/omgimanerd/create-advanced-industries/blob/8c9ca00cdb21dbb979775d6141024edd0ea4e921/minecraft/kubejs/startup_scripts/mechanics/energizedBeaconCrafting.js
server script: https://github.com/omgimanerd/create-advanced-industries/blob/8c9ca00cdb21dbb979775d6141024edd0ea4e921/minecraft/kubejs/server_scripts/energizedBeaconCrafting.js

Script itself is pretty modular and can be easily extended to use whatever item, and process it whichever way.

there is a client script mentioned in the startup script, got that?

Client script is WIP, I'll update the post when I have it done, I'm trying to figure out how to render a beacon beam entity in JEI so I can have a custom JEI category for these crafts too.

hey my game is giving me an error using those scripts, should i post it here? do you have a github or something? thanks!

arctic lion Jul 10, 2024, 9:21 PM

#

do you have a github'
the links for the scripts are literally to 'a github'.
but its probably better to post them here

normal willow Jul 10, 2024, 9:24 PM

#

yeah, i was asking for a github related to this scripts not to the modpack they are working xD

lament nacelle Jul 10, 2024, 9:26 PM

#

normal willow hey my game is giving me an error using those scripts, should i post it here? do...

That is the github

#

These scripts aren't intended to be literally copied unless you want the direct functionality I'm implementing

#

You should probably modify them to do what you want.

#

I also reference some of my own libraries and helpers, which means you're always going to get errors unless you copy them too.

normal willow Jul 10, 2024, 9:41 PM

#

i found the problem, didnt have one item used to activate the beacon. However, now the overcharged item gets consumed, the beacon gui opens and no crafting operation is done

normal willow Jul 10, 2024, 9:41 PM

#

can you share that too?

lament nacelle Jul 10, 2024, 9:43 PM

#

normal willow can you share that too?

They're all in the github. You can just use the file search to look for them.

arctic lion Jul 10, 2024, 9:43 PM

#

it would be nice if you could upload a self contained one

lament nacelle Jul 10, 2024, 9:43 PM

#

Yeah, I'm trying to figure out what is and isn't required.

#

As far as I can tell, the only utility function I'm calling is the one to spawn particles.

#

What error were you seeing?

normal willow Jul 10, 2024, 9:45 PM

#

lament nacelle What error were you seeing?

it was caused because i dont have this item 'gag:hearthstone' (line 54 from server scripts)

#

so that was my bad, didnt see what mods you were using

#

i can send you my kubejs log if you want

If you don't have quark, this won't work.

normal willow Jul 10, 2024, 9:47 PM

#

thank you!

#

still the same issue: the overcharged item gets consumed, beacon gui opens, but no glass is being dyed.

the only modification i did to those last scripts were removing:

    //'gag:energized_hearthstone': {
    //  result: 'gag:hearthstone',
    //  energy: 20000,
    //},

from lines 93-96 server_scripts

lament nacelle Jul 10, 2024, 10:39 PM

#

If the beacon gui is opening, then it means that the event isn't being cancelled, so something is erroring out in the middle.

#

Comment out the spawnParticles lines

woah

please post that in the quark server, its amazing

oo I'm not in the quark server

#

feel free to post it on my behalf if you want

arctic lion Jul 11, 2024, 7:08 AM

im not in there either heh

normal willow Jul 11, 2024, 12:37 PM

tested with that last script (the one that comments spawnParticles) but still not working

#

this is the error im getting:

i can share my kubejs log if you need it

arctic lion Jul 11, 2024, 12:38 PM

#

your tags are empty

#

at least when the script is loading they are

#

yeah.... what omgi is doing when server scripts load doesnt work
you cant resolve tags on server script load

oh you're here hallo

lament nacelle Jul 11, 2024, 1:32 PM

#

arctic lion yeah.... what omgi is doing when server scripts load doesnt work you cant resolv...

You can, the tag has to be specified in a data pack json

arctic lion Jul 11, 2024, 1:32 PM

#

wat

lament nacelle Jul 11, 2024, 1:33 PM

#

Yeah, I'll link it after, but create the tag file in kubejs/data/kubejs/tags/items/corundum_cluster

#

It's the only way for tags to be available during server load

arctic lion Jul 11, 2024, 1:44 PM

#

ooor you could just... not load it during server load

#

so that you dont have to copy any tags you want to use

lament nacelle Jul 11, 2024, 1:46 PM

#

It's the only custom tag, the server load preprocesses the recipes for fast lookup. Any tag that is declared at startup through item registration should be fine. I couldn't determine if that was possible

#

But yeah this is why it's hard to make it a standalone because it's just really specific to my implementation

#

I suggest using it as an example and tweaking

normal willow Jul 11, 2024, 2:00 PM

#

yep, i want to tweak it but i need it working so i can understand what is going on 😅

#

if im not mistaken, here is where you are using that custom tag

   ingredient: '#kubejs:corundum_cluster',
   result: cluster,
   redirectorBlock: cluster,
   energy: 500,
 })```

startup_scripts 85-90

#

why arent you using 'minecraft:corundrum_cluster'?

lament nacelle Jul 11, 2024, 2:03 PM

#

To signify that this a custom tag I'm adding

#

(even so it would be quark) I don't want to use any mods namespace for my own stuff

normal willow Jul 11, 2024, 2:03 PM

#

oh cool

lament nacelle Jul 11, 2024, 2:04 PM

No, this just the registration adding it to the dictionary

#

It's in the server script where it's being preloaded

tender gorge Jul 28, 2024, 1:15 PM

#

normal willow oh cool

did you ever figure out how to solve it bc have the same problem along with the corundum just blocking the beam instead of changing the color and i tried all of them and many more fixes for hours and im stumped

tender gorge Jul 29, 2024, 1:57 PM

#

and no errors but it just does not work

lament nacelle Jul 30, 2024, 5:30 AM

#

Do you have quark... ?

tender gorge Jul 30, 2024, 11:02 AM

#

yeah

lament nacelle Jul 30, 2024, 4:52 PM

#

If you can't get the beacon beam to redirect that's not a script problem, it's a quark problem.

tender gorge Jul 31, 2024, 10:53 AM

#

huh

#

ill look into it

#

ok fixed the quark issue one of my mods was messing with it

#

but it still just does not work when i right click with overcharged iron

#

it does not decharge the item but it also opens the gui

#

mabye i should chage it to just shift right click

tender gorge Jul 31, 2024, 11:51 AM

#

hmm

#

but now it does consume it and open the gui while not crafting

tender gorge Jul 31, 2024, 6:05 PM

#

i also keep getting a error about corundrum alr having a recipe or smth

lament nacelle Aug 1, 2024, 1:37 AM

#

You should not use the example recipes I'm using. Define your own. If you use tags, you need to have them added in a datapack json file

tender gorge Aug 1, 2024, 11:09 AM

#

k

lament nacelle Aug 4, 2024, 8:40 AM

I've updated the permalinks in the original post to point to the latest version of my script. Most notably, I've moved the recipe preprocessing in the server side out of ServerEvents.loaded. This event only fires once on the first world load, which means changes to the recipes cannot be properly reloaded. Now changes to the startup script can now be reloaded by reloading first the startup script, and then the server script.

tender gorge Aug 4, 2024, 11:11 PM

#

ive tried the latest verion but it still does not work.

if you need a copy of my modpack to see if mabye my other scripts are messing with some of the things then i can send one if needed

lament nacelle Aug 5, 2024, 6:16 AM

#

What did you try and debug? If you just copy the scripts they won't work, you probably don't have the tags registered.

lament nacelle Aug 5, 2024, 6:38 AM

#

arctic lion yeah.... what omgi is doing when server scripts load doesnt work you cant resolv...

sooooo you ended up being right about this. I was testing this by exiting the world back to the main menu and loading up the world again. ServerEvents.loaded only fires once when the world is first loaded. Logging out and back in again does not fire it again so the preprocessed recipes are empty. This is actually just like a massive pain in the dick.

However, I have a sort of roundabout solution that came about as a result of trying to get the world seed on first load.

ServerEvents.loaded(e => {
  e.server.runCommandSilent('reload')
})

I cannot think of any way to get the world seed (for randomized per-world recipe generation) outside of doing this (and it seems support posts are doing the same thing). This only fires once so it's not expensive and it doesn't fire during /reload. A side effect of this is that on the second reload, tags are available in the server events, so if it's loaded with datapack json files, you can reference them with Ingredient.of('#tag').

#

Ugh, literally all of this complexity is because

I want to use tags in the recipe, since it enables the JEI category to look very nice.
I want to preprocess the recipes, but to get around the tag thing you can probably perform the preprocessing the first time the craft is triggered. It may lag a little the first time.

arctic lion Aug 5, 2024, 6:44 AM

#

yeah getting the seed is one of the only times you actually need /reload at the moment

ah that makes sense sorry my coding knowledge is pretty limited so i thought that the tags where already in the game

hellow! dont know if you are still working on this, sorry for bothering here (again 😅). Im trying to get this to work on mc 1.21.1, so far ive sorted some problems, but this one It exceeds my ability to understand JavaScript:

When trying to use a recipe (the terracotta one) my latest log shows this:

also seems like color constant in startup scripts isn working since any recipe that uses ${color} throws an error 'minecraft:barrier with redirector quark:red_corundum_cluster already has a recipe'
