I'm trying to make things happen while under a certain y value but the execute command is not firing

Show the whole script.
Also, put your script between three backticks, like so:
```js
let x = "Hello world!"
```

let x = "Hello world!"

PlayerEvents.tick(event => {
    let player = event.player.getName().getString()
    //if(event.player.block.id == 'kubejs:interdimensional_portal') {}


    if(event.player.level.dimension == 'minecraft:overworld') {
        if (event.player.y <= -64) {
            event.server.runCommandSilent('effect give ' + player + ' minecraft:blindness 2 1 false')
            
            //event.server.runCommandSilent('effect give ' + player + ' minecraft:slow_falling 1 1 false')

            event.server.runCommand('execute as gattoh at @e[tag=IsPiercerPortalOverworld,sort=nearest,distance=0..50] in minecraft:the_nether run tp @s ~ 180 ~')
        }
        return
    }
})```

#

I have tried the execute command on its own with a command block and that works

#

the effect commands work so I'm not sure why that one doesn't

lapis leaf Nov 23, 2025, 10:40 PM

#

I have no idea what the nearest entity with the tag IsPiercerPortalOverworld and distance between 0 and 50 is, what's its purpose?

#

Maybe there's an easier way to get the thing you want to do working and without any commands.
@hearty sinew

So far, I have this:

PlayerEvents.tick((event) => {
  const { player } = event;

  // @ts-expect-error
  if (player.level.dimension == "minecraft:overworld") {
    if (player.y <= -64) {
      event.player.potionEffects.add("minecraft:blindness", 2, 1, false, false);
      event.player.teleportTo(
        "minecraft:the_nether",
        player.x,
        180,
        player.z,
        player.yaw,
        player.pitch
      );
    }
    return;
  }
});

There is a stationary armorstand with that tag in the overworld and I'm trying to tp the player to the armorstand's coords in the nether

lapis leaf Nov 23, 2025, 11:00 PM

#

Hmm, so maybe this could be done more simply with JS and without armor stand, I'm trying to learn what's the purpose of the armor stand.
Does it have to move? What decides on armor stand's coords?

hearty sinew Nov 23, 2025, 11:02 PM

#

It's summoned from a Multiblocked2 machine that puts it at the machine's coords but always at y=-64

#

And it should always stay at the same position

#

It's used as a marker for a 'portal' and to replace the portal's blocks when a Create machine breaks it

#

basically
machine summons armorstand
armorstand creates and marks the portal

Mhm, I see

Check this out:

);
const $ArmorStand = Java.loadClass(
  "net.minecraft.world.entity.decoration.ArmorStand"

PlayerEvents.tick((event) => {
  const { level, player } = event;
  if (
    player.level.dimension == "minecraft:overworld" &&
    player.y <= -64 &&
    player.age % 4 == 0
  ) {
    event.player.potionEffects.add("minecraft:blindness", 2, 1, false, false);
    // Dumb Rhino bug, yay!
    let armorStands = level.getEntitiesOfClass(
      $ArmorStand,
      new $AABB([player.x, player.y, player.z]).inflate(50)
    );
    let targetting = $TargettingConditions
      .forNonCombat()
      .ignoreInvisibilityTesting()
      .ignoreLineOfSight()
      .range(50)
      .selector((entity) => entity.tags.contains("IsPiercerPortalOverworld"));
    let anchor = level.getNearestEntity(
      armorStands,
      targetting,
      player,
      player.x,
      player.y,
      player.z
    );
    if (anchor != null) {
      event.player.teleportTo(
        "minecraft:the_nether",
        anchor.x,
        180,
        anchor.z,
        player.yaw,
        player.pitch
      );

Due to dumb Rhino bug, the temporary variables have to be let despite not being changed later on

The potion effect is given for 2 ticks

hearty sinew Nov 24, 2025, 4:04 PM

#

ah that makes sense in commands it's seconds

lapis leaf Nov 24, 2025, 4:09 PM

#

And from my testing, I did get teleported to the location of armor stand

#

Any additional info about that armor stand?

#

(like, is it invisible, no AI, how did you create it, etc?)

hearty sinew Nov 24, 2025, 4:10 PM

#

These are the nbt:
{NoGravity:1b,Silent:1b,Invulnerable:1b,Marker:1b,Tags:["IsPiercerPortal","IsPiercerPortalOverworld"],CustomName:'{"text":"PiercerPortalOverworld"}'}

lapis leaf Nov 24, 2025, 4:10 PM

#

Thanks!

#

So far I see that getNearestEntity for some reason can't detect the entity with Marker set to true

hearty sinew Nov 24, 2025, 4:25 PM

#

I don't think it will be a problem if I just take that out

#

Yep that works

#

very many thanks

lapis leaf Nov 24, 2025, 4:39 PM

Wait

#

I made something that works even with Marker set

It's your choice

Code inside the if won't run anyway if either condition isn't met

What do you mean by "silent"?

like runCommandSilent

Since that's not a command

hearty sinew Nov 24, 2025, 4:47 PM

#

one last thing

what is this for? player.age % 4 == 0
