Actually prevent block placement

[vital glen]

This sctipt works almost fine, but item is still consumed in survival and you can briefly see a block thats placed
actual file has player.tell() wrapped around "not ae2" but for some reason it doesnt show here??

Paste version of zt8nps3.js from @vital glen

[vital glen]

BlockEvents.placed(e => {
    const { block, player } = e
    if (!block.id.startsWith("ae2:")) {
        player.tell("not ae 2")
        return
    }
    if (block.id.includes('cable')) {
        player.tell('Use a different kind of cable')
        e.cancel()
    }
})```

Put the same code in a client script to stop the block appearing briefly and the item being consumed (not really, once you pick up the item or something. Like that the count should update)

[vital glen]

I tried copying over the same file to the client, but still the same effect occurs

Is there a different event?

[vital glen]

Also the item actually does disappear, an update doesnt restore consumed item

Which was thw weirdest for me

Also is there a neat way/reason to condense the two conditions into one?

[vital glen]

okay all this event does while both on client and server is not consume item only when stacksize is greater than 1

[hot hatch]

That's weird

[vital glen]

maybe that's because ae cables have non standard placement logic?

also this entire idea is to be scrapped as block id for all the cables and busses is ae2:cable_or_bus

so by doing that I would disable all terminals and busses as well
