#Open Denizen Discussion Thread

some plugins not designed for 1.19 have broken commands that dont sync to client but work perfectly in console

wondering if denizen executing the command as the player would work; in which case i could simply override it with a denizen one with the same perms & tab completions

!tias i guess

!tias

ye i might just

trying to fix it up in intellij but its just such a mess to fix im thinking it might be easier to just not

lmao

it works

👍 official greatest way to fix

even better; it works if you do it then remove it to register the command for it

I'd suggest uh, either contacting the developers to fix those commands, or replace that plugin if it's no longer maintained, just a matter of time before more stuff break

i already fixed it up

its not broken cmd registering just changed so custom ways of doing it dont function on client if its registered dynamically

denizen uses fixed way so can actually be used to sync the broken plugin

If you mean that ^, that's not really a fix - more of a workaround

its not

i forked it

Ah I see

we all good

@old venture why dont you just do <n.repeat[15]>

(your dCommands resource)

also you can just use .not instead

oh didnt know .not was a thing

imma update the script ehen i get home

its the same as !<tag>

(also remember to add a fallback)

aye aye captain

You could open a review thread, your script will be reviewed and after you've fixed everything it can receive the verified high quality tag/title

oo

also

ive been thinking about user-documentation for scripts in the vscode extension

similar to java's javadocs or javascript's jsdocs

Thats what I also suggested yesterday 😂

Great minds think alike

oh wait, when reviewed, i will get like "you should do xyz"? i thought it was just a "nah not high quality sorry"

But yeah, it's nice both for the person writing the script (as they'll learn from it, hopefully), and for the resources section (as it's another high-quality script for people to learn from/use)

once i get more experienced w denizen i will start posting resources as well

although i might post ticktabs

0tick youre one of the most experienced users around here, just start posting resources already xD

im actually relatively new here

I mean, if it's very bad and beyond all repair or something you might be given a few points and asked to start over, but generally yeah, issues with your scripts will be pointed out

and do i create a post on the forum for that, or another place?

imma do it

This forum

are you even allowed to contribute to vscode extension

Ofc, it's open source & on GitHub as well

Acikek contributed to it once iirc

yeah imagine you could document your scripts

and then they would appear when you hover over them

Something like that is planned I think

Or full workspace scanning is planned, at least

but this also means that it will have to scan the entire denizen/scripts directory, detect the usage themselves (run/runlater/inject for task, proc tag for procedure), etc

(Which would be the base for something like this)

ah ok

i feel like that would be easier to make if denizen used imports/exports like other languages

but thats not going to happen

review post opened ayyy

yeah itd be cool to have more advanced stuff like this, but it definitely should be optional bc i have no idea whats going on there

its a method of documentation

in languages like javascript, theres tools like jsdoc, which allows you to put something like this as comment

and then when you hover over the function or any references to it, it generates the documentation

the latter happens if it's so far off from the quality standard that it's not worth the effort

particularly like, new users making very complicated scripts

but if you've mostly got an idea what you're doing and are most of the way there, a proper review can happen

it usually ends up being me that has to do the in-depth reviews historically and it takes like an hour to do properly for a decent-sized script so idk if i can personally be bothered

but theoretically if you open a thread, any experienced user can speak up and get it at least most of the way and i can just do the final check and badge-granty bit

yea, 0tick has given lots of inputs

i'll fix em once i get home

i can only give the most basic stuff

woah what color/format is that bright cyan

forgot i could just use paint and the color picker, i found #03EEB6 and made that my todo comment color now lol

looks a lot less like an error now, i like it

yours still looks so much more vibrant tho

ah yes, thx for the reminder to change my TODO color

yay

+> YAY!!!

am I misremembering or was there once a command to let you manually trigger a server event for debug purposes (other than customevent)

good news I am not misremembering, but it seems it died an unfortunate death #denizen-pre-forum message

oh boy it was removed a year ago #changelog message

5s+1t equivalent?

function not running cus flag removed on same tick

eh nvm just made the fn remove it cus it makes more sense when u think abt it

1t is 1/20th of a second

so u do the math there

it works with decimals?

i actually found out some days ago that you can use things like 0.1t

figured it was integer or smth

uuuhh what works with decimals?

time

^

per this yeah it does

thats duration tho, idk about time in itself

assumed it worked as either integer * unit; or like ability to specify multiple like 3d6h

oo

• new absolute hack of a mech, EntityTag.alter_uuid lets you change an entity's UUID to whatever you want. Will break things, obviously.
  when will we get playertag.alter_uuid

https://tenor.com/view/troll-pilled-gif-19289988

a playertag is a valid entitytag

and when i played with it, i had crazy results because i didnt know what i was doing lol

what type of crazy results? 👀

like i was canceling the player walks event and i couldn't type without being kicked

Any good use case scenarios for alter_uuid? lol

@fossil steeple warn @old venture minor Rule 2/5 violation

😦

im getting warned for every gif i post, well, time to stop posting gifs

i mean, you did post a literal troll face lol

1. it's a minor warning
2. it's a literal troll face
3. the gif combined with the question indicates you knew the question was redundant

you posted troll face dot gif and a redundant question and you expected a different outcome?

in my language thats called "joking"

do we know whether it's possible to detect clicks in the advancement menu? I want to build a skill tree and have it be fancier than just inventory guis

!rule 5

click link read rule

gonna read it

see also rule 2

It's fully clientside iirc

that's what I thought but I haven't fucked with it in several versions so I wasn't sure

well, fair i guess

Player profiles, allowing players to have multiple virtual accounts different from their usual main account. Different uuid means different plugin data

it would be really cool if we could emulate advancement menu tech

that said the interface is clunky even for advancements, you can't just click and drag around, it's locked to the edges more than it needs to be

Oooo that’d be cool

Interesting

time to build Yet Another GUI I suppose

jfc i sent my messages in response to this in #bot-spam

interestingly, we can see when players open the achievements menu actually
Packet: net.minecraft.network.protocol.game.PacketPlayInAdvancements sent from _Behr__ and
Packet: net.minecraft.network.protocol.game.PacketPlayOutTabComplete sent to _Behr__ both are packets sent when open/closing the achievements menu;
clicking inside the achievements menu does nothing unless you're clicking these tabs:

i also misread that second packet and that probably isn't a 'closes achievements menu' packet

don’t joke in support channels, I learned that the hard way

this isn't support channel!!!!!!!! ☹️

oh wait sorry, what I meant to say is to not troll outside #chatter or #actives-only

oh~ that is interesting! it could be useful for some kind off updates board of sort

do not trust bill gates!!

so i have an incredibly customizable chat script that also modifies everything down to system messages being sent to players - i have a special formatting for /denizen debug/submit commands too:

but i noticed of the messages i ever have to deal with:

debug_messages:
  - Denizen debugger is now recording. Use /denizen submit to finish.
  - Denizen debugger recording disabled.
  - Use /denizen debug -r  to record debug information to be submitted
  - Submitting...
  - Error while submitting.
  - Submit failed<&co> not recording.
  - Denizen debugger is now<&co> ENABLED.
  - Denizen debugger is now<&co> DISABLED.

Use /denizen debug -r to record debug information to be submitted doesn't have a period

wait... are those debug messages referenced by... index?

i check if
- else if <[raw_message].strip_color> in <script.parsed_key[data.debug_messages]> || "<[raw_message].strip_color.starts_with[Successfully submitted to https]>":

and then re-format the message pointed in a choose/case

no i mean like

that debug_messages is a list

yeah

how are you retrieving from that list

?

are you just hardcoding those index numbers?

yeah, cause i check if the message a player receives is that raw text after it's color is stripped

Ohhhhhhhh

i thought it was something much worse

i check if <[raw_message].strip_color> in <script.parsed_key[data.debug_messages]>
and if it's "Denizen debugger is now recording. Use /denizen submit to finish." for example, it runs this:

- case "Denizen debugger is now recording. Use /denizen submit to finish.":
  - define text "<&color[#ffb84d]><&lb><&e>Denizen Debug<&color[#ffb84d]><&rb> <&[green]>recording started"
  - define hover "<&[green]>Click to submit"
  - define message <[text].on_hover[<[hover]>].on_click[/denizen submit]>

i was about to be so concerned

what did you think it was?

i thought those were the messages you wanted to output with
and instead of making it a map you were just memorizing the indices of the list you used in the rest of the script

oooo nah

i do want to make a ton of it all static eventually but not anytime soon

i have done that before

wish it was that easy clientside

are those 3 buttons at the bottom always there?

most screens on client are opened 2 or 3 times at once

yeah

can't determine a potion splash?

thread pls

was y/n so assuming thats yes but sure

answer is yes

While it was, #1038164579827597353 shows that it required a bit more context to be answered. Also, your original question appeared to be “potion splash determination isn’t working” more so than y/n (at least to me, but this is typically how people ask why something isn’t working).

1984

was not an instruction manual

I like the click to rerun command thingie

me too, it's honestly saved me tons of press enter, press up key until i find what i want to parse again

thass pretty neat

MapTag intersect name? keep only ones in both maptags? not asking for explanation just what its called; i see include/exclude but no intersect - if it doesnt exist ill just figure it out also (like i already see i can use filter_tag with the other maptag.keys.contains)) - ok i looked through all maptag ones and dont see it as an option so rip filter it is

second one word answer question; is MapTag.get "safe" if the key doesn't exist, as in if MapTag.get[thing] >= 5: (meaning it returns false if MapTag.get[thing] does not exist)

Please make a post, this post is mainly for Denizen discussion, not support

its a y/n question that i was explicitly told is ok to ask here and fits the pinned rules, im not asking for context/fixes and dont want them

you're asking for help writing a script

don't try to rules-lawyer around it

^ This post is specifically not for scripting help, and creating a new post has no downsides, just benefits - people can easily find it in the future and learn from it, it'd already be in it's own separate place if the discussion becomes longer (which it does most of the time), etc.

it takes no more effort to make a post than it does to write a message in this thread

kinda does cus then i get spammed with "please post entire debug log" for a one word answer

If the appropriate response to your question is to request a debug log, that's the same regardless of where you post it

not askin for script help im literally asking if maptag.get null comparison is false or fails

You asked two things

for the record ok i looked through all maptag ones and dont see it as an option so rip filter it is is an incorrect self-answer

I'm not going to tell you the correct answer until you ask in the form of a post

(Because this is not an appropriate channel for answering support questions)

the answer was yes for future people

@fossil steeple warn @tender locust serious rule 10 / intentionally disrupting the normal flow of support posts

rules 10 and 9, I should say

wtf thats actually so cool

the way the channel buttons work was totally ice’s idea

how do you even remove the message? do you just... resend the whole chat without the deleted message?

this is super cool

Hey guys I have a concept im wondering if it's possible

The first 3 slots of the players inventory are 'locked' and only accept items with certain custom model data

so slot 1 is for rings etc, I make 10 rings with custom model data, and slot 1 only accepts those items
slot 2 is necklace etc,

Can denizen do this or should i go custom plugin?

flag them (instead of relying on model data)

and then it should be possible to only allow those to be put there

What do you mean by flag them? 🙂

model data wont change so i dont see the issue with that idk

flag as ring, or necklace or whatever

on someone trying to move something in inventory check slot and flag

do stuff accordingly

ig

denizen can do it

Nice!

So im new to the plugin just kinda learning

@digital hamlet you should make a post if you plan on using denizen so we can help

Also

!guide

Oh sweet 😄

You can start there :)

Um just a new thread?

ayy new denizzlers

Oki pokey

yeah

Forum posts are for help, so if you need help with anything or you are stuck on something Denizen related feel free to open a post on #1026104994149171200

There we go 🙂 thanks guys

yes. But also 1.19.3 has that as a built-in feature so it'll be easier soon

Oh wow that’s awesome

Cant wait :)

Yes that's possible, make a post if you want to know how.

Oh, I haven't scrolled down

😆

Trying to modify a player head on the ground to have a texture, it works with <player.uuid and player.skull_skin. But how do I put a uuid off minecraft-heads.com for example in there

- adjust <[location]> skull_skin:6f5f703a-d72e-4e60-b230-27494426bcda
This doesn't work

Should create your own post for questions, this post is mainly for discussion, not support

Out of curiosity is there a tag to get all the members inside a noted area? I'm trying to teleport everyone in that noted area.

^

is there any guideline/process i need to follow for PR to depenizen

like do i have to make an issue and shit like some people insist on

^ adding onto that i'm assuming its a big no-no to change an established part if it's not necessary

mainly want to fix up the towny stuff and the events there are just weirdly named/written

"towny player claims plot" should be "towny <town> claims plot"; for example (being /t claim) and "towny <player> claims plot" should be different (/plot claim)

im assuming i should instead just leave that first one as-is and make the second one "resident" or something like that

Is there a way to manually cancel an event given its reflected object tag?

Or ideally a way to change the event tied to the script?

For reference i am using the internal bukkit event for plugin interop

The script fires on a custom event and passes an event ID of another event

create forum post and explain what you're trying to do more indepth

!vague

I use discord to avoid forums I hate that they added them 😩 threads were enough

trust me, way better than flooding one channel

if we flooded a single channel with all types of questions and support, things would be unbearable

yeah

POV: spending half your life scrolling up to view buried questions

have you shared this script anywhere? would love to make use of pieces of this sort of system

i've wanted to do something similar but have been worried about dumping a huge chunk of chat into people's windows on every message

it’s on my repo, but i’ve recently realized i did it really really poorly

i think actually a snippet of one of your own scripts helped me realize it, too lol

nice haha, yeah we have a pretty interesting chat system ive been wanting to further improve with tabs along the bottom and removable messages

a huge problem i made if you end up taking a look at it before i can share a link is that i do way too much processing in the receives message event

and in general but i planned on consolidating it later anyways

i assume you are uh, flagging each player with their chat history?

and dumping it on every message received

i actually save it in yaml and filter for if they’ve ever dismissed a message

ope, ping sorry

how come o-O

i figured if five people had chat history flags, it’d be mostly all the same data just spread out as opposed to saving it once and when a player dismisses it, i add their name to a key in the message’s map

if bob had joe muted, bob’s chat won’t even update if joe talks

5 people could have totally different chat histories, is the data all stored separately still?

oooh that’s what you meant, uh

i store every message in a map:

chat:
  <[time].epoch_millis>:
    channel: the channel they sent a message in
    message: the actual message
    player_uuid: <player.uuid>```
these are the main keys, and if a player mutes someone with the built-in player interaction menu they just won’t see their message when i use `- narrate … from:<[player_uuid]>`
and if they dismiss the message, i add a key like `dismissed: <list of players>` and filter them from the recipient

monkey’s comment on 1.19.3 makes me think this entire thing will explode given potentially being able to edit messages in chat though

interesting, i see

officially? Do you or monkey have a link to that?

I am going insane

HOW

why

how can I accomplish what im trying to do

im just trying to add multiselect to my fakeblock script

you should make a post for this

oh

yeah

https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Java_Edition_1.19.3#General_2

neat

Any tips for chat text alignment?
It's easy with fields with equivalent name lengths, but tough for fields of varying names.

depends on if you can perfect the spacing - we have some tags that return the text width of characters that you can take the sum of and .pad_right with the spacing you need to equalize them all

the problem with that without a resource pack though:

Tag parse results for <&sp.text_width>: https://paste.denizenscript.com/View/103060

4

a space is four pixels large

so if you wanted to make a line first with 10 pixels long and the next has 11, you couldn't just pad to 14 or 15 width without a single pixel length space or three

if you wanted to try scripting it though you'd want your own post cause i could go on and on with that lol

Makes sense to me. Thanks for the detailed response.

don't forget you can use negative spacing lol

Negative spacing?

yes

negative spacing

google it 🙂

make a thread if you want support 🙂

I actually made a thread about this.
https://discord.com/channels/315163488085475337/1029210068664717363

this is for the resource pack side of the game

Is there a way to unzip a file?

<BinaryTag.gzip_decompress> ?

install 7zip or winrar

ooh

i see what you meant

lmao

😂

Would like to be able to download a zip then decompress rather than download a ton of files recursively

The idea is to download a zip then decompress and read the contents

that might be beyond the scope of denizen

should I make a python program to take a neatly ordered folder of scripts and turn it into one giant freakishly long file? I want to be able to quickly update my shit from local to my host without having to copy over like a whole folder onto the website

for example:
I have a repo with 20 script files, it is very inconvenient to upload all 20 to the host in order to update, so why not just convert it into one mega file?

Why don’t you use something like vscode sftp extension

Login to your server and pull from your repo

I think acikek’s dzp can do that

But pulling from git like ice recommends is probably better

how do ✨I do that✨?

clone the repo via git

and when you do changes and want to update it git pull

that's basically the dEssentialsCompiler from https://github.com/mcmonkey4eva/DenizenScripts ... except the purpose of that was to be able to haste it all in one file cause the script repo at the time didn't have a way to do zips

also yeah git is the way to go

how do I text underneath the NPC name?

!channels

huh

this is for discussion, not support xD

ik the feeling

were is support?

citizens support is in #1027028179908558918

Are you trying to set that with Denizen?

you can make a post there

Otherwise ^ yeah

idk what that is

Well, you asked in the #1026104994149171200 channel, if you're using Citizens should make a post in #1027028179908558918

ahh okay thanks

Is it worth installing denizen just to hide this? Above a NPC.

hide wut

it looks like the screenshot is literally a wall lol

I think they meant hiding the NPC's name? if so that can be done with Citizens

And should ask in #1027028179908558918 ^

What latest Java version is supported?

nvm it's JDK 17

how can I make it auto update when I push changes?

figured it out

(cd /pro/minecraft-1/plugins/Denizen/scripts/tomo/; git pull; cd)

ran that with my provider's scheduler

The new dzp compile sucks and that's honestly one of the worst things about it. I need to copy the parser from the JS version so I can actually do it well and support dDoc

dzp-rs is a downgrade in a lot of ways except speed unfortunately, but since only I really use it that's okay

I want to turn it into something useful though

dzp compileis not really for the purpose you described though. it's for compiling large projects for the forums and such

The actual uploading/pulling should absolutely be git

for those who have used project/package managers, what tools do you think should be in dzp? like I said, I want to make it a usable and useful tool

    type: world
    events:
        on player breaks stone_slab:
        - determine <item[cobblestone]> if:<context.should_drop_items>```

For anyone using terralith, this is a lifesaver ^^^

!guide common mistakes - don't overuse

is there anything kinda like definemap but for flags?

you can definemap a map together and then use that in a flag?

nana not like that, something kinda like this:

- flagmap object flag:
  key: value
  key2: value2

then you could get values with flag.key

yes just define map that, and then use the flag to apply it

mmm

- definemap flag:
    key: value
    key2: value2
- flag object <[flag]>

or whatever

ooohhhh

oh yeah i didnt think of that

great to know

What tag is it to round money? For example, I'm using round_to_precision[0.05], however sometimes that returns something like 3.3 instead of 3.30. Basically, I want it to always have 2 decimal places regardless of the hundredths place value.

ooo nice new embed

yeeee

Why can i not read from an sql server in a procedure script

I wouldn't classify reading from an sql database an external change

just read it before and add to the context

Hmm?

I'm trying to have all sql queries done in procedure script to simplify calling them

oh, mb i misunderstood

The idea is rather than having to repeat the logic for sql queries a bunch its all in a tag that can be called much simpler

How do i disable the enforcement on procedure scripts?

so i can use sql in it?

i do not see a config option

i dont think thats even possible, you should def create a post asking for being able to read sql in a proc

!makepost

sigh Time to figure out how to make a forum post thing

it's really easy, just go to #1026104994149171200 and click the title part, type in "sql in procedures" or something, then in the message box type your initial question, and hit post

then you have a thread and can type more messages in it freely

The response to “But it’s not worth bothering” is a bit condescending I think

You're in the denizen discord "condescending" describes everyone

the devs can be mean sometimes just make them regret not banning you

lol

get your own special red arrow

They'll probably give me one eventually

You're on the internet reading text

if it sounds condescending, that's more in your head than in the text

if everyone in this Discord sounds condescending to you, that primarily just speaks to your own expectations of the world around you

if you make more positive assumptions, you'll have a much better time

Was just trying to be funny mate

i mean you did say condescending described everyone, everyone includes yourself xD

True enough

why don't tradetags accept maps?

is this a limitation, or is this a create feature request moment?

just created a huge mess to simulate maps in trades lmao

i deserve a prize for this one tbh

writing one rn

there's an easy answer to that, if you make a post

yee

uh, is there something wrong with the CLA Agreement or was it my account that had a problem? it said my email is not a GitHub User but the signing was already done.

Ah it was on my end. local git configurations.

I'm assuming this is where i'd ask random (small) questions?
Not used to this discord layout

No, just make yourself a post

^

okay, thanks

Omg hi @rain ravine

hello

i was going to ask something but it turns out i just solved it 💀

the power of trying things yourself prevails once again

Yes

if its not for small questions about denizen that post literally rules out anything

not particularly

kind of does tho

!channel

!makepost

These two info cards should help you

It primarily allows for discussions that don't necessitate their own post (you can still make your own discussion posts and I'd argue should but you don't have to)

Discussions as in, you're not trying to get an answer to something, you're not going to immediately apply the results of the conversation onto a real server, etc. you just want to chat about something

An example that comes to mind that happened earlier is talking about the features of the upcoming future minecraft versions and how you might make use of them after it's released

Another valid use would be commenting on scripts posted in #showcase

or showing off smaller scripts

or using this thread as your own mini-showcase location, for sceenshots or scripts not worthy of #showcase but worth posting cause you're proud

:(

TAGTS WHAT IM SAYIN

BRUH YOU JUST CONTINUED MY OWN TRAIN OF THOUGHT AND TYPED IT SHORTER TO GET IN BEFORE ME

another valid use of this channel is TYPING IN ALL CAPS about things :3

kind of your problem for not typing fast enough

Whenever I try helping on mobile someone else comes and types it faster using their superior computer keyboard

simply type the bare minimum

like if someone asks “how to flag player” and then replying “flag command”

gg ez

or just say “flag” for simplicity

they will figure it out

clueless

on the contrary, you can just try to link a guide page 3 times until it works

true, linking guide pages never works

!guide get started

lmao

!guide notables

lmao

part of the reason for the bot is to let helpers type almost exactly this much but actually provide the user with the info they need

via !guide flag or !c flag

!flag

type two words, give the user a thorough explanation of what they need with examples and all

kek

oh wow I’m fucking dumb

typing “xy problem” on an extremely detailed post

(another big reason is that the prewritten docs explain it better than a helper is going to explain it 5 times in a row)

xyproblem is not related to the amount of detail given

mfw info commands in mythic server is staff only

ew

and support is 99% community-driven

no joke go to #351864879545843715 and find the last staff msg

you can link channels in other servers now??????

today i learned you can link channels from other servers

you could always do that

<#idhere>

too much effort

lmao

did you interrupt monkey two times in a row?

yes

didn’t know that was against the rules

permabanned

Is there any way to get text directly on top of an inventory's slots? Not including text baked into an image in a texture pack.

!makepost

Question on UUIDs

is it possible to change a player's uuid even temporarily?

!makepost

Did lol

I'm very confused

ThreadBot is

locking up while trying to add @pastel canyon to threads apparently?

and then failing to process future threads because it's stuck trying to add calico

why is calico cursed

nope calico isn't cursed

it's just, whoever ends up 6th in line for adding to a thread

is it an api limitation then?

doesn't wanna accept requests after a bunch in quick succession?

It's not giving an error or anything, it's just... failing to process

and it's not number of requests either

one test gave 5 requests, the most recent did 8

(the more recent test renamed the thread and pinned the first message, the other test couldn't find the first message and so skipped those steps)

it's limited to 5 users getting added

not counting the ones added via ping

discord moment

this should be a feature

autoadd role permission in channel permissions

are the bots written on denizen?

the ones in the server

no

C# iirc

dTagParser is in Denizen, the rest are C#

all are open source if you ping em and ask for a link

@frozen brook link

The source script for dTagParser can be found at https://paste.denizenscript.com/View/90440

@weary moth link

:(

@weary moth hello

@fossil steeple hello

@neat pulsar hello

nyah

dang, nice

@timid mortar love me

@rigid idol hello

for some reason i thought all of em were powered through denizen

correction: all are open source and some of their source links are easier to find than others >.>

totally could be lol

theoretically could be

actually no

LevelsBot could be, ThreadBot probably could be, MetaBot is only missing a few Denizen features like zip unpacking and it could be but performance would hurt, ModBot couldn't be cause it mucks with Discord API more than dDiscordBot has any reason to include

also LevelsBot would be limited to only this Discord if it was in Denizen, vs being public and highly scalable

@low radish hey dont blame me man 😂

let’s blame creeperbot

i haven’t heard it sing for us in over a year

how else would i know that my heart will go on

if i ever bring it back ill probably give it AI powered tts

and AI powered speech rec

oml honestly that’s actually probably the best idea lol

Whisper

• CoquiTTS

= profit

oo, coquitts is supposedly much faster than tortoise

albeit audibly a bit lower quality

It was fast enough I didn't realize it was running on cpu when I forgot to give the container gpu

What is a good event for detecting a player clicking on water? "player right clicks/left clicks water" doesn't seem to detect it.

!makepost

yeah, water isnt a clickable block, you'd have to do some workarounds to get that ""event"", if you want to hear more then create a post

that sounded like a great ad where you're about to get some answers but you have to register to get the whole content xD

LMAO yeah that was what i was going for!

pay denizen subscription now to get support answers on every channel! only $9.99!

Microsoft be like

!bribe

add 1 more cent and you can have a fancy gold name

where in the code is the server_flagged event switch defined? I’m curious about something.

https://github.com/DenizenScript/Denizen-Core/blob/master/src/main/java/com/denizenscript/denizencore/events/ScriptEvent.java#L553

thanks bestie

that's actually not where i expected it to be lol

doesn't use the generic _flagged tool

I’m thinking, could it be possible for a “server_flag:my_server_flag=true”

an in event line check

possible? technically yes

will that be added? ehhhh

I have a bunch of toggles for specific features

where you can flag the server true/false in a flag and it can enable/disable something I’ve added

so every script has like

• stop if:<server.flag[no_mending].not>

server flagged switch supports !, monkey just added that

noted

!haste

if that topic becomes a script question, you should make a post

likely

#changelog I deserve CREDIT for that last one

you didn't request it, i just added it cause you got my eyes looking at the code at all

worth a shot

@rough lark are you a mind reader?

I was planning to write up a commission for a scripter focused menu creator instead of having to make the bastards by hand, but didn't want anything more than making the tools and let me handle everything else.

Can I buy you a drink or some other token of eternal gratitude sometime?

Haven't tried it yet but it looks to be similar to how I wanted to approach it before deciding the lazy path, though I'm sure your approach is far less schizo than mine would've been.

sure! if you end up using it in any significant way, and want to drop me a dono, my paypal is @jehopkins. i've been using it a lot

PayPal locked my account for a week because someone ignored me and used it after my card had expired. Unless you have an eth wallet, I'll send you something through after it's fixed.

Will give you some feedback and maybe cool screenshots when I get to using it though, cheers!

no worries and no rush

we've used it to make all these

rearranging that first page would've been a huge pain without it ha

the bottom 2 pages are saved as templates without the inputs/output. when i load the inventory, i just - inventory set the dynamic items in

like so

      - define inv <inventory[blast_furnace_recipe_inv]>
      - inventory set d:<[inv]> o:<server.recipe_items[<[id]>].first> slot:12
      - inventory set d:<[inv]> o:<[item]> slot:24
      - inventory open d:<[inv]>

That’s so cool Mergu 😮

Here's how I've started my backpack script for some comparisons, including some comments on the why and future plans for them.

I'll grab a video too, even in it's most basic version, they're very cute and my players love them ❤️

ayy lessgo nice!!

the jiggle

thats actually very well done!

Thanks king. I'll put together *current version with some tweaks and the resource pack tonight.

I'm really excited to try and get that swap button remapping going. So much potential by having a user adjustable key that fires whatever scripting you want based on the item they equip.

Might put that on the priority list, who wouldn't want a button to fus ro dah or turn invisible or whatever

I know I would.

Alright here's my attempt to implement Mergu's thing with my thing, while not being able to test it.

@rough lark feel free to steal anything that's useful in here though, could easily be reformatted to act use any currency or used for something other than a shop.

Planning on forking a clone that would act as an xp system. So players would 'level up' using 'xp' instead of purchasing with points. In theory it should just be a cosmetic change, it should work for any use case

I'll 100% test this when home and share it again properly as well though.

Also, whoever is responsible for enabling color formatting for the VSCode extention, I could kiss you

I could kiss or murder them depends on if it broke that day

Oh my God I just saw the !nothome command please don't kill me 🙏

Y'all are nuts and I'm so into it

Not that mine was a help thread but damn if those pre-written beating sticks don't get me excited

that was monkey

these are sick - is it Tenshi still making textures for you? they look awesome!

Yep! Though I made those inventory overlays myself

Tenshi made the items

They look great!

Both the overlays and the items

Is there something like a "Flag expires" event?

no, but there are ways to figure out when a flag will expire using other methods. best to make a post about it :)

😩 How about a feature request for a "flag expires" event?

Where are feature requests btw?

I imagine this is a very simple request

just firing an event when expiring the flag

i don't know the inner workings but iirc this may have been requested a few times in the past. not everything is as simple as it may seem... you could probably make a post about it in #1026104994149171200 with the feature request tag OR make a post about the ways you currently can wait for a flag to expire

Is the bot still broken?

i don't know :|

i didn't even know it was broken XD

Thinking if it's better for future scripts I make to use the if argument in a lot of single use cases, or if it's better to create them as two lines.

Ex:

- if <player.has_flag[yep]>:
  - define var true

versus

- define var true if:<player.has_flag[yep]>

its mostly preference

i prefer the latter because it looks cleaner

Yeah I'll prefer it cleaner, usually.

!xyproblem

seeing as your thread is resolved, i'd just like to note here that this isn't how flags work

You should make a thread, but note that your request is literally the example of an XY problem^

I already did 🤷

their expiry doesn't constantly tick down, it's checked when the flag is accessed

Ah that makes sense then

open the thread, reply there

Because you replied here, there's a thread in history without an answer now

so somebody who finds it won't find the answer

i'll paste it there

It got an answer

No need

@fossil steeple warn @acoustic socket normal consistent habit of intentionally disrupting the proper usage of forum channels

?

Thats out of the blue

should i just close it now?

nvm

You need to
A: Start using forums properly (ie make threads, don't misuse #1027064108056580106 for your questions)
B: Stop telling other people to not use threads

When have i told someone not to use threads?

not out of the blue, you've been given several explanations and polite nudges, I'm now escalating to the level of warning. Should problems continue it will escalate to actual moderation response

Ah

@rough lark Your static method was not ideal for my needs but was very easy to workaround

So far so good, seems to work as expected. I'll give some feedback once I've used it for a lil bit, good stuff!

that's basically what i am doing to have both static aspects and dynamic assets in the menu

this

I wonder what it would take to have script items in the menu's update themselves instead of being fixed in time for when you edit them. Let's just hope I don't run into the need just yet

oh

I guess that's just sprinkling manual steps on top.

Which is fine, since it's still saving time regardless.

that minecraft font tho

I even use it at work and my co-workers have started using it also
https://github.com/IdreesInc/Monocraft

i personally dont really like it, but it seems cool

Deadset best font I've used, I likely won't switch to anything else.

so much easier on the eyes

maybe i can port this to a minecraft resource pack tho

It's ready to go as a font file

perfect

You can just install it in the OS

i think minecraft resource packs can accept otf

yeye

man, the comparison operators look odd, especially the !==

i think italics/any slanted text in general look a bit weird tho

i leave most of the ligatures turned off

I'll have to take some screenies when I work next, the ligatures and field highlighting is insanely good for digging through SQL returns

just reading the license to see if i can include it in my os resource pack lol

ye, it's open license

SIL Open Font is the font equivalent to MIT more or less

albeit minus one of the most important parts of the MIT license: keeping it short enough that any idiot can read and understand it in a minute

which imo should be required for all licenses

agpl3 moment

That is so goofy I might actually try it

hhehehee

<player.flag[faction].proc[claim_chip_multiplier]>

ik

but that looks so cursed

eh

i guess

oo, looks cool

But the nesting :(

haha yeah that seems to annoy a lot of people

I suppose that's a matter of preference as well, but

- if !thing:
  - narrate "o no"
  - stop
- narrate yay!

is a lot cleaner to me

- if <has_wifi>:
  - if <has_permission>:
    - if <is_connected>:
      - narrate "yay"
    - else:
      - narrate "no connection"
  - else:
    - narrate "No permission"
- else:
  - narrate "No wifi"
``` vs
```yml
- if !<has_wifi>:
  - narrate "No wifi"
  - stop
- if !<has_permission>:
  - narrate "No permission"
  - stop
- if !<is_connected>:
  - narrate "no connection"
  - stop
- narrate "yay"

i def prefer second one

oh that's what you were talking about

i thought you were referring to the tab spacing XD

(pseudocode btw)

Oh, I mean I am a 2 spacer personally lol but I don't really mind it either way

but yeah i've started to use the second way of doing it in my newer scripts ever since my first or second bounty review

it def is a lot nicer

ref for one of my newest scripts

tab spacing is „wrong“ yeah

still got some if nesting in there but the - stop style is a lot cleaner and less repetitive :)

breaks a lot of parsers iirc

uhh

else:
  if ...

I think he meant 4 vs 2 spaces

cant this just be else if ...

oh my god

i

wow

and you can use the and operator

instead of multiple ifs

i guess past breadcrumb had a lapse in memory

I'm talking about the spacing after scripts:

yeah people don't like that i do that but it makes the contents much more clearer for me

my_task:
    type: task
    script:
    - narrate "this is not as clear to me"
my_other_task:
    type: task
    script:
        - narrate "this is much more clear to me"

just my preference :\

#actives-only message

its valid yaml though, ig its just denizen that doesnt like it

yeah :|

¯_(ツ)_/¯

what do you guys think about these commands

are there any obvious and easy ones ive skipped

you should add a smite command

kills the player with lighting

Are you copying essentials? If so where is the /home and /antioch

SMITE! ⚡

no im just adding commands im finding useful

doesnt really matter if theyre in ess or not

but whats antioch?

I think it throws tnt or throws a golden apple that explodes. I just remember it just threw something that exploded.

And it wasn't cats.

There use to be a command that you could use to throw a cat that exploded but didn't do any block or entity damage.

I've always hated minecrafts default teleport and made my own /goto to just teleport to other players instead of specifying a target, but that just might be preference.

You have ban/unban, what about banip, and unbanip?

oo, yeah

/fly

oop

i'll look thru your essentials thing and make sure i have everything there

u prob do

!forums

+++ Info forums: https://forum.denizenscript.com/

oh yeah u dont have /speed

i dont have /tell /reply

i dont have /enchant

true!

i dont have /invsee /enderhcest

im adding rename, lore (add/remove), kill too

some other good ideas for ya

im not going to do /kill

since its good enough

i only want to make denizen commands for stuff that sucks on vanilla (e.g. vanilla /execute command vs a custom /sudo command), or is used a lot but really long to type (e.g. gamemode command)

i rlly dont like the vanilla syntax for killing mobs like @e[type=zombie] so im making an entirely new command just so i can do /kill zombie LMAO

make that /killall instead

alr has that

oh wait

killall zombie?

yeah that seems better

mute, tempmute, unmute

i want to avoid those

since i want to make those in my discord script insterad

so it integrates with timeouts

really? aw man i never thought i'd come across someone who doesnt like the idea of censoring other people

oooo

thats very cool

ngl

you already have a /back command, so where's your custom /tp

👀

also a convenience command that never fails, /craft

why do i need a custom /tp[

for custom worlds, thats already in my world manager script

no reason other for it to be fancy

ah yes

why have boring bland white messages when you can have LESS BORING AND DIFFERENTLY COLORED MESSAGES

ok invsee command done

time for speed

ok speed done

ok enchant done

what you think

nice!

What does the -s argument do.

makes it silent

so messages are gone

If you make a game with a running speed faster than than the walking speed I am g o n e

well hello I am g o n e

Wut

That's the point of running

It's faster

peak of denizen i think

?

sound effects

yes

actually in game

Haha that’s cool

Oh I played on mute lol

That can be done with just command blocks as well

??

/playsound

A lot of things can be done with just command blocks, but it's not as safe, efficient, future-proof, etc.

yeah but

it does it automatically on script reload

is what i meant

Oooooh that is neat

if your script reloads correctly it goes tada

if it errors it does an error sound

this is literally what all my fucking players tell me when they want something

Fun little feature

Easier to use/understand as well - command blocks can get pretty complex and are harder to learn imo

Denizen is definitely easier to script

“oh you can just make it with command blocks!!!” YEAH I CAN ALSO MAKE SALSA WITH MY FUCKING SHOE

one of my friends that plays on my server doesnt use denizen and just uses command blocks instead

proof

he's working on a card game right now

im pretty sure this is just for a single set of cards

there's several

and its not even full functionality

its so horrible to look at

it gives me fucking chills

he's spent a few weeks on this

like

WHY

"but denizen is harder"

real shit my god dude what the fuck?

shit looks like the ENIAC built in minecraft

Doing it for the personal challenge or something like that miiiiight mayyyybe make sense? but iirc Mojang makes breaking changes to commands a lot as well

I.e. days/weeks/months of work down the drain with a single update

Pretty sure we've had people who wouldn't update because of command blocks, actually

a useful tool? maybe for summoning like a thousand zombies. good for anything else? no.

- spawn <element[zombie].repeat_as_list[1000]> <player.location>

Surprise attack!

i have litterally 3 plugins that can do that (essentials spawnmob, mm spawnmob, denizen spawn list)

45 active posts holy

Denizen just built different 💪

how would i join two lists together?

!makepost

noted: do make sure to use the correct versions of both denizen, depenizen and the plugins i'm using depenizen for

yikes

vscode is a nice text editor too

also nice to view log files

i will consider using notepad further

!makepost

How do I force a phantom to target and attack a player. The attack command says it can’t hold a target

^

10-4 I made one

Is there not a mech for adjusting the “time since last slept” variable or whatever.. I think that’s why phantoms won’t target me cause it targeted another player who hasn’t died recently

Um

^

LOL

I love portal 2 it’s so fun

Why using notepad :(

at this point its out of spite

i've always used it but now im just doing it because i find it hilarious that each time i send a code snippet it just flashbangs everyone

I mean, the only person you're affecting is yourself lol - you're knowingly avoiding stuff like full syntax highlighting, auto-complete, automatic error checking, in-editor meta documentation (for commands, mechanisms, events, tags), etc.

i know
