Buffing mobs' stats and equipment based on a random nearby player's stages | latcord | Page 1

#

I want to make mobs stronger as the player progresses by increasing their stats and giving them equipment as players unlock stages but idk how to go about adding this.

#

Mainly I need to know how check the stages of nearby players and how to set the mob's equipment/stats.

#

I already have an EntityEvents.spawned event set up.

#

accessing stages is pretty easy. its just in player.stages

#

all the functions in this are found here https://github.com/KubeJS-Mods/KubeJS/blob/main/src/main/java/dev/latvian/mods/kubejs/stages/Stages.java

#

you could jump into the Player.java source code and see where to access their armor from there

#

you could also use the same strategy to go into the server and find the day count

#

im not an expert but what I usually do is find the functions (looking at the source code) around the things I want to change and then access it through the relevant events

#

btw im pret sure you can run commands server.runCommandSilent(...args) to find players` names, then access their instance from the server playerlist to find their stages

#

thats atleast is the basic concept of where to start while you're waiting for help from the experts

alright, ill give it a shot

i cant seem go get commands working for some reason, this is my test code and i am not given raw chicken when zombies are spawned with or without the forward slash

EntityEvents.spawned('minecraft:zombie', event => {
    server.runCommandSilent('/give @a raw_chicken')
})```

#

wait raw chikens id is just chicken let me retry

#

okay now its working

#

okay ive got it to execute the command at the spawning entities location but idk how to actually get the nearest player

#

EntityEvents.spawned('minecraft:zombie', event => {
    var x = event.entity.x
    var y = event.entity.y
    var z = event.entity.z

    event.server.runCommandSilent('execute positioned ' + x + ' ' + y + ' ' + z + ' run give @p chicken')
})```

I thought this would work but it doesn't, so idk what to do.

EntityEvents.spawned('minecraft:zombie', event => {
    function findnearest() {
        var players = event.server.getPlayers()
        var dist = Infinity
        var target = nil

        for (let i = 0; i < players.size(); i++) {
            var newdist = players.get(i).distanceToSqr(event.entity.x, event.entity.y, event.entity.z)

            if (newdist < dist) {
                dist = newdist
                target = players.get(i)
                target.tell('test')
            }

        }

        return target
    }

    var player = findnearest()
    player.tell('test')
})```

I've simplified my code down to this but idk how to get the player itself

EntityEvents.spawned('minecraft:zombie', event => {
    var x = event.entity.x
    var y = event.entity.y
    var z = event.entity.z

    var test = (event.server.runCommand('/execute positioned ' + x + ' ' + y + ' ' + z + ' run data get entity @r[type = player, sort = random, distance=..128, limit = 1] <path>'))

    event.server.getPlayers()[0].tell(test)
    
})```

#

Buffing mobs' stats and equipment based on a random nearby player's stages

#

I figured it would be the best for it to choose a random nearby player to check the stages of

#

Because that way it would make it so a group of players with different stages would have a blend of differently armoured enemies spawning around them instead of having the armour based on the closest player to where the enemy spawned

ivory forge Oct 13, 2024, 2:32 AM

#

@past oasis try this in server scripts js EntityEvents.spawned('minecraft:zombie', event => { const { entity, level, server } = event let mobAABB = entity.boundingBox.inflate(150) let NearbyPlayers = [] level.getEntitiesWithin(mobAABB).forEach(e => { if (e == null || !e.player) return let playerName = e.username NearbyPlayers.push(playerName) }) if (NearbyPlayers.length != 0) { let randomPlayer = NearbyPlayers[Math.floor(Math.random() * NearbyPlayers.length)] if (randomPlayer != null) { let player = server.getPlayer(randomPlayer) if (player && player.stages.getAll().some(stage => stage == "someStage")) { entity.setItemSlot(5, 'minecraft:iron_helmet') entity.setItemSlot(4, 'minecraft:iron_chestplate') entity.setItemSlot(3, 'minecraft:iron_leggings') entity.setItemSlot(2, 'minecraft:iron_boots') } } } })

#

to test it out you can give yourself the stage with this command /kubejs stages add Dev someStage

#

replace Dev with your player name ofcourse

past oasis Oct 13, 2024, 2:36 AM

#

It doesn't appear to work, the zombies don't spawn with iron armour when I have the someStage stage.

#

I've been attempting to make my own code that uses the distance to the block the mobs spawn at but I can't get it to work, I saw something about a distanceToSqr code I can run but I can't seem to get it to work.

#

EntityEvents.spawned('minecraft:zombie', event => {
    var x = Math.round(event.entity.x)
    var y = Math.round(event.entity.y)
    var z = Math.round(event.entity.z)

    var players = event.server.getPlayers()
    var maxdist = 128
    var targets = []

    for (let i = 0; i < players.length; i++) {
        players[i].tell('test 1')
        var dist = players[i].distanceToSqr(x, y, z)
        players[i].tell('test 2')
        if (dist < maxdist) {
            targets.push(players[i])
        }
    }

    for (let i = 0; i < targets.length; i++) {
        targets[i].tell('test 3')
    }
})```
The code never gets past the `distanceToSqr` section

Something like this should work, right?

EntityEvents.spawned('minecraft:zombie', event => {
    var players = event.server.getPlayers()
    var maxdist = 128
    var targets = []

    for (let i = 0; i < players.length; i++) {

        if (dist < maxdist) {
            targets.push(players[i])
        }
    }

    players[0].tell(targets.stages.getAll())

    let randomPlayer = targets[Math.floor(Math.random() * targets.length)]
    if (randomPlayer != null) {
        let player = server.getPlayer(randomPlayer)
        if (player && player.stages.getAll().some(stage => stage == "overworld_done")) {
            entity.setItemSlot(5, 'minecraft:iron_helmet')
            entity.setItemSlot(4, 'minecraft:iron_chestplate')

This is repeated over and over again and is the only relevant thing to the issue:
[14:32:59] [ERROR] ! mobarmor.js#13: Error in 'EntityEvents.spawned': TypeError: Cannot find function includes in object [overworld_done, guardian_slain, aether_done, undergarden_done, nether_done, twilight_forest_done].

#

And this is the actual code I'm using

EntityEvents.spawned('minecraft:zombie', event => {
    var players = event.server.getPlayers()
    var maxdist = 128
    var targets = []

    for (let i = 0; i < players.length; i++) {
        var dist = players[i].distanceToEntity(event.entity)
        if (dist < maxdist) {
            targets.push(players[i])
        }
    }

    players[0].tell(targets[0].getStages().getAll().includes('overworld_done'))

    var randomPlayer = Math.floor(Math.random() * targets.length);
    if (randomPlayer != null) {
        if (randomPlayer && randomPlayer.getStages().getAll().includes('overworld_done')) {
            event.entity.setItemSlot(5, 'minecraft:iron_helmet')
            event.entity.setItemSlot(4, 'minecraft:iron_chestplate')
            event.entity.setItemSlot(3, 'minecraft:iron_leggings')
            event.entity.setItemSlot(2, 'minecraft:iron_boots')
        }
    }
})```

#

It stops at line thirteen (which is players[0].tell(targets[0].getStages().getAll().includes('overworld_done')))

#

Okay I found out that I needed to replace getStage().getAll().includes() with stages.has()

#

But it still isn't applying the armour
