idk it’s cool

[sullen bay]

because it's also in Denizen logs

[foggy gorge]

ancient old syntax it used to use for everything

[sullen bay]

DEN+> Executing 'RUN' blah blah

[foggy gorge]

helps the c scripts use regex better

[sullen bay]

really ?

[soft pewter]

Coolness factor + stand out in logs maybe

[sullen bay]

love to get random syntax backstory

DEN<(---:]]>>>)}-> would be better

personal opinion

[foggy gorge]

its similar to this:
https://github.com/DenizenScript/Denizen/blob/dev/plugin/src/main/java/com/denizenscript/denizen/scripts/commands/item/GiveCommand.java#L31

you can see where the @'s and the open/closing brackets kinda are for scanning to easily grab the meta in the right places

[sullen bay]

wait is docs parsing also custom

always thought it was just a doc generator library of some sort used and that's it

[foggy gorge]

yeah, when it loads the data, it scans the repo for it all manually lol

[unkempt torrent]

no it loads the repo and goes file by file

[sullen bay]

yeah that's how any doc generator library works

the question is whether the parsing is custom

[unkempt torrent]

the logic is soo I think yes?

didn't found any library when I remade it in react

[sullen bay]

i mean, specifically for java i don't know but i.e. with JS you have JSDocs

[wild cosmos]

or with emojis DEN🤭 🤫👉

[sullen bay]

Now it's more an "IDE typing system to have typescript without having typescript", but initally was a syntax for automatic docs generation

still the case, but also widely used for typing js

[sullen bay]

no

[foggy gorge]

🤭🤫👉:
  type: task
  script:
    - narrate "this actually works, please kill me 💀"

/ex run :face_with_hand_over_mouth::shushing_face::point_right:```

ope

im not fixing it, it's already too cursed

[wild cosmos]

no way that actually works

[foggy gorge]

it does unfortunately

[unkempt torrent]

emojizen

[wild cosmos]

oh my gooosh

im gonna refactor my scripts

[foggy gorge]

incoming funky

[quartz wraith]

people who use emojis in their code, even in comments, should have their computers taken away

[foggy gorge]

and their browser history exposed!

[unkempt torrent]

if heart rate < 5:
delete browser history

[foggy gorge]

if your heart rate is < 5 pls eat sandwich u are dying

[unkempt torrent]

good idea

fuck off

please delete that

and think about what you've done

Im going to need to wash my eyes with soap now

[sullen bay]

if minecraft's font has emojis, it's for a reason

just use the damn emojis

also quite literally, minecraft having emojis support in its font is great

cases like discord chat bridge become sooo much better

[quartz wraith]

NO NO NO YOU CANT MAKE ME DONT MAKE ME DO THIS

[foggy gorge]

well earned

does something like this this look discrete enough as a way to show what spell someone is holding i wonder

[soft pewter]

ooo

[quartz wraith]

not large enough, also would be like impossible to see when they’re moving imo

also you better not be stealing art from ars nouveau

[quartz wraith]

you could like, attach it to the front of their arm? like

[quartz wraith]

right here

[cloud sigil]

thats sick how did you do the offhand slot

is it just a sick texture in a resource pack?

I think it looks good, pretty visible, but maybe try using bright colours as well to make it even easier to see during combat

oh I thought you were talking about the offhand slot. I didnt even see the hand item lmao. So no, not visible enough ig

[foggy gorge]

i think i do actually like that

[cloud sigil]

yeah thats better

[foggy gorge]

i feel like doing normal tasks in a magical complicated way is like engineering a script or program to do a simple task, i love it though

[old venture]

well then script everything about mining

hope you enjoy the challenge!

can you bypass aeternous file upload by adding the jar to the world zip. then using a plugin from spigot to move it to plugins folder?

probably violates their TOS

jw f its possible xD

[old venture]

if such plugin exists then i dont see why it wouldnt work

also, "aeternous" LOL

[bitter crown]

i typed fast

didnt check spelling

[bitter crown]

probably violates TOS tho

[fleet kernel]

ye

iirc they had this before?

wait no

im thinking of minehut and the /world command

[grim quail]

So with 1.21 being here and dev builds being eventually worked on, I've noticed that there isn't a 1.20.6 release build for denizen. Whats going to happen with that?

[foggy ember]

Well, the next release build will probably be for both - currently neither are stable (mostly because of the 1.20.6 issues carrying over), so doesn't really make sense to release one

[grim quail]

Fair enough.

[wild cosmos]

is renaming note a thing or am I cracked?

[unkempt torrent]

[fleet kernel]

😭 when i read that i was very confused

[low radish]

im just gonna delete the whole discord

thanks discord needed this tag

[soft pewter]

is it just me or did the tag get bigger than it used to be

[old venture]

yup in mobile its smaller

[fleet kernel]

and rounder

[old venture]

and smaller

[bitter crown]

bump

[old venture]

could this mayhaps perchance be applied to players? #changelog message

i mean i know players are entities.. but would that work? if so, how would it work?

[grim quail]

Pretty sure thats meant for mobs.

[rigid idol]

Discord Levels Bot

Level up!

Congratulations @grim quail! You're now at level 45!

[grim quail]

Why would it work on players? Just use the death event.

[graceful laurel]

It’s only mobs

[old venture]

thought so

[old venture]

idkkkkk What If™️

[sinful spindle]

and do what? delete the items they're using instead of dropping them if the chance fails?

[old venture]

i was eepy when i wrote that pls stop attacking me

[wild cosmos]

oh my god krilliant what are you even talking about?!?!

[cosmic tide]

He should get a second next to his name for that

[grim quail]

DoNotListen

[mossy tide]

I can sort of understand the idea behind it. It'd be like a drop chance percent for the player to actually drop their items on death.

I plan on doing something like that on my server later where it basically does keep inventory except it has a chance to drop an item you are holding or wearing.

[sullen bay]

WARNING: not tested

on player dies:
  - determine <list[<player.item_in_hand>]> if:<util.random_decimal.is_less_than[0.2]>
  - determine KEEP_INV

Should theoretically be as simple as this

Using <list[]> because the event has quite a bunch of different determinations and drops expect a list. Might be useless? Untested

Also, I'm not sure whether this would actually keep the rest of the inventory or just destroy the rest
Might need a pair of determine KEEP_INV passively + take + drop

[dawn flower]

wot

You don't need the list constructor there

<util.random_decimal.is_less_than[0.2]>

!t random_chance

[weary moth]

Tag: <util.random_chance[<percent>]>

Returns a random boolean (true or false) with the given percent chance (from 0 to 100).

Returns

ElementTag(Boolean)

Examples

- if <util.random_chance[25]>:
    - narrate "This happens 25% of the time"
- else:
    - narrate "This happens 75% of the time"

[dawn flower]

You probably want to:
Check for %, determine held item passively & take it
Then determine KEEP_INV (passively) & NO_DROPS

[sullen bay]

literally read the message below

[dawn flower]

I did

[sullen bay]

ok

[dawn flower]

I'm letting you know you don't need it

;-;

[sullen bay]

then don't "wot" me

[dawn flower]

sorry jeez

i had just woken up i was processing what i was seeing

[sullen bay]

also random_chance is for:

• new people because it's definitely a recent tag
• for people who can't think

context.apademide.is_new_person -> false
context.apademide.can_think -> true

thus i am unable to use that tag

[dawn flower]

it's not new

not sure when it was added but the oldest meta pull up of it dates back to 2021

nvm i found

#changelog message

[sullen bay]

as i said, new

[dawn flower]

ok grandpa

[cosmic tide]

I find that hard to trust

[cloud sigil]

When is denizen 1.20.6 cominggg (the good release not the in-development release)

[sullen bay]

likely never

je retire

can't say "likely" because i don't know

but "could be" never

since 1.21 is already a thing, it might be the next release target

or not

again, don't knw

since i don't know, this pretty much means my 7 previous messages have basically no point

[sinful spindle]

is this meant to be a joke

it's increasingly hard to tell with you recently

you also shouldn't need the list constructor, single objects will listify themselves if you pass them into a list argument

[sinful spindle]

if not uhh

don't randomly avoid tags that are there to simplify things?

[sinful spindle]

oop somehow my eyes missed this

he already said that

[grim quail]

I already asked this. #1027064108056580106 message

[old venture]

wait what

@frozen brook <element[test].is_empty>

[frozen brook]

[old venture]

you lied to me inquisitor

[sinful spindle]

Well, that's not an argument

[foggy ember]

Doesn't need to be an argument even, just Denizen knowing what object something takes

Or well, I guess still technically an argument, but doesn't have to be a command argument

[foggy ember]

^ see that

[mossy tide]

I wasn't asking you to make the script for me man. I was just pointing out that I could make sense of what they were saying and I was gunna do it later. I don't even have a player base yet ;(

[sullen bay]

so what

that's not the player base that brings the features, that's the features that brings the player base

step 1: have a good server with cool things
step 2: wait on players

[mossy tide]

I gotta have the players to play with and bug test the things I've already got before going off and making more insane stuff. I've already got a 30 page in-game guide book

[sinful spindle]

you don't have to, you set your own goals

if you wanna make something, make it. Maybe it'll be the thing that ends up attracting players

[sullen bay]

Don’t waste time on documentation nobody will even read

96.3% of people don’t even fill the ˋusage` command script keys and it’s fine

[dawn flower]

it's good to have documentation tho

esp if there's a lot of content to go thru

id rather there be a guide to go thru than wait for an answer from players/staff on how to do something

[sullen bay]

Yes but it’s not good to have a huge ass documentation when you have no player in the first place

People will like the feature then read the docs

You didn’t read the whole denizen meta docs and thought it was cool so started scripting, you saw a bunch of things you could do with scripts then looked at specific meta docs

[dawn flower]

yeah? i wouldn't have gotten anywhere without the documentation in the first place

[sullen bay]

Ye, but denizen existed before its docs

Likely started as a simple readme with the few things you could do with it at the time

Then it grew, so did the docs

[dawn flower]

I'm not saying to add documentation before adding the features

but it's a lot easier to develop both at once imo

[sullen bay]

Ye tru

[dawn flower]

i mean, this is true yeah, but if the documentation was incomplete i'd likely not have found some of the things i was looking for

[sullen bay]

But realistically, the community likely helped you more that the meta docs in itself

[dawn flower]

100%

Though, if there was no meta i'd have made x100 more posts

Both are pretty important I'd say

[sullen bay]

Which means (especially on small to tiny servers), a helper or two and a few cool things to do have more positive impact and take less time than spending days on setting up docs

[dawn flower]

Imo docs REALLY helps when they're easy to search through

or at least, you know how and what to look for

[dawn flower]

oh

yeah on a smaller scale, i agree

sorry also i keep forgetting to turn off the stupid pings

[sullen bay]

i.e.this (regardless how bad or wrong the script is) is a feature people can like and have a opinion on and improve your server player experience

while making a complicated in game doc thing is a whole system to think about and "adds nothing"

Ah ye also I’m not saying it’s bad to have docs im saying it’s bad to spend too much time early on on business ready huge docs

Denizen Meta Docs vs. a readme; a complete minecraft ingame GUI vs. Just put patch notes in your discord group

[dawn flower]

ahh i misunderstood you then, i agree early on it makes more sense to put effort into the actual features

most servers i play on make their guides on those wiki sites

which i prefer a lot more than in game docs/guides

since it's pretty easy to scour them for specific stuff

[sullen bay]

(In addition to being easier to setup)

(And Google-able when you become a thing)

[dawn flower]

i have no idea about the set ups tbh, ive never really messed with anything like that, but id imagine it's a lot less painful than setting it up in game lol

[sullen bay]

Usually a simple code "parser"

Just some kind of regex on your codebase

And a specific comments syntax of some sorts

Many different flavors of the same underlying idea

[dawn flower]

sounds fun to play around with, at least for the experience 🧑‍🦯 might give it a shot if i get super bored sometimes

anywho, show time, cya o/

[mossy tide]

Mostly it was a guide book like mods do for their features. Do some basic explanations of mechanics and if they want more info then they ask

I had about 10 entries in the book with 1-2 pages per entry. It has a table of contents in the front of the book to quick travel to the page for that section

I've got an open dev log on the discord for the server where people can ask questions as I go

[fleet kernel]

can you spawn in a map as a displayed entity

or does it have to be placed

[graceful laurel]

an eggcellent post question

[cosmic tide]

🥚

[old venture]

try it and c

[mossy tide]

I'd imagine you can spawn in an item frame with the map in the contents, but try it

[fleet kernel]

yes but i wwnt it ws a display

so i can stretch it and esit

[mossy tide]

I mean soon you can do it with entity scaling :)

Or you could make it a 3d model as a copy of it to spawn as an item display, just wouldn't update lol

I've been using 3d models with item displays for my custom crops lol

[mossy tide]

I got my big lore proc to work now and it's hot af now. Works for food, armor, weapons. I'll probably reformat enchants too

borgar

I just got a master pickup data script working so it converts vanilla items to my custom versions like replacing animal drops with the custom food with food poisoning and new food values

[grim quail]

That's cool, you may wanna consider making a border inbetween things so it looks better.

And spacing.

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/635304225219411988/1207464537561899050/image.png?ex=667e9abb&is=667d493b&hm=325a3550c58c28e3b26a25501138c6df9fa6a4993f7cb20672c8bfcfc746b2d2& Take example my custom lore for special items.

[mossy tide]

Ah yeah that's good, I thought about it, but never got to it

I'm mostly running lines like this define lore "<[lore]><n><gold>Replenishes <yellow><[2].flag[food]> <gold>hunger."

I can def add breaks like that

[grim quail]

Yeah, fair.

[mossy tide]

It'd work good for the armor or weapon attribute boxes

Here's how I'm handling the attributes
https://paste.denizenscript.com/View/124147

[mossy tide]

So uh, I thought this was how data maps worked before. Not real sure how I managed to get it to work in the first place lol

Stew_Recipes:
  type: data
  #alchemical:
  meat:
    - curry_chicken:
      - cooking_raw_pork
      - new_carrot
      - cooking_raw_chicken
    - meat_stew:
      - cooking_raw_beef
      - cooking_raw_pork
      - cooking_raw_chicken
  #veggie:
  alcohol:
    - wine_mash:
      - new_sweet_berry
      - new_sugar
      - new_sweet_berry

But hey it worked

Wow that's cursed knowing how maps work better now

      - foreach <script[stew_recipes].data_key[<[cauldron].flag[base]>]> as:map:
        - define key <[map].keys.get[1]>
        - define recipe_ingredients <[map].get[<[key]>]>

I love denizen :)

[grim quail]

That can probably be improved. Consider making a thread.

[mossy tide]

I already am gunna fix it lol, I just made a thread asking for help with map tags and I'm showing now my idiocy :)

^Already closed said thread too

[grim quail]

Yeah. Consider submapping though.

Also consider the key argument with foreach.

[mossy tide]

Yeah that's the plan. I remember I somehow discovered sub mapping before I even knew lol when just working with flags

[mossy tide]

Thanks for the suggestion, it looks much better now. I'm working on reformatting the food items since I'm remaking my cooking system again lol

[grim quail]

Cool

[mossy tide]

Ignore the insane ingredients

:)

[grim quail]

By the way the method of my border is strike through space

[mossy tide]

Oh, I actually haven't even played with strike throughs in formatting

[grim quail]

<strikethrough><&sp>

Repeat sp as necessary

[mossy tide]

Oh good I was about to do <element[ ].strikethrough>

[grim quail]

Do what you feel is best for a border, but this feels cleaner

[mossy tide]

I just gotta see about setting up an actual lore line in the format for the eventual quirky item references

oh god all of my food items already have a lore line, this is gunna be pain

much better

[mossy tide]

much better formatting

how?

[thorn bone]

Where is Clientizen mod?

wait. this is mod https://ci.citizensnpcs.co/job/Clientizen/
but where is the plugin then?

[foggy ember]

The plugin is just Depenizen

[thorn bone]

oh i see

[foggy ember]

(But also #1131872289688928266 for Clientizen-related stuff)

[cloud sigil]

Why isnt depenizen merged with denizen?

Why is there a whole seperate plugin for something pretty small (afaik), and not just included in Denizen

[foggy ember]

I mean, Depenizen isn't exactly small, it's integration with several other plugins (and Clientizen ^)

[cloud sigil]

hmm

[wild cosmos]

it would be bloatware

[low radish]

Depenizen is a bit of a technical nightmare tbh

arguably, Clientizen and Bungee support could be moved from Depenizen to Denizen

but all the rest, noooo keep it away

[grim quail]

Built in clientizen would be interesting.

[sinful spindle]

it wouldn't do anything without the mod anyway

we'd just get way more confused support threads about why their commands weren't working lol

Does anyone know a good web api to edit MIDI files?

[mossy tide]

I reworked my stew system and made a new stats page which keeps track of all recipes the player discovers when experiementing with stews. Very happy that I got it working

Now I'll have proper tracking for any and all recipes I make going forward as it's working off a submapped flag on the player

One of my goals later on is to essentially create an equal that rivals the plugin Brewery. I already have fermenting, brewing and bottling working, just need brews to actually code in!

how old is 1.7 again

[mossy tide]

hey I don't want to get in trouble for using recent assets haha

[foggy gorge]

[cloud sigil]

If youre going to do that, at least make the AI generate a custom image as well

Train it on a bunch of existing minecraft food icons

and real food

[foggy gorge]

string sandwich

@small kernel give us three custom minecraft food ideas where the recipe calls for either string or cobweb!

[small kernel]

How about these three recipes?

1. String Lanterns: A block of cake with a diamond on top and 4 cobwebs around it, surrounded by 9 pumpkin pies
2. Spooky Spider Cookies: A cookie with sugar on top and a string attached to it, made of wheat and cobwebs.
3. Stringy Stew: A pot of beef stew with a sprinkle of gunpowder on top and 4 strings hanging down around it.

[foggy gorge]

stringy stew, called it

sprinkle of gunpowder on top
lol

[mossy tide]

Oh god I tried to use a stable diffusion to gen textures, that didn't go well

[cloud sigil]

Pizza better give you crazy buffs

[mossy tide]

I'm glad I remembered that I had the resourcepack before I went too into it

I think I'm using the stable diff for book textures though since I'm bad at art

[cloud sigil]

I suck at pixelart too. But I know that AI is dogshit at pixelart lol

Have tried too many times

[mossy tide]

Though I did get into 3d modelling recently and that didn't turn out too bad for custom crops

[grim quail]

Lowkey I thought about doing this too.

But I haven't mingled enough with it.

I know blockbench can help with this.

[mossy tide]

I'm using item displays for the 3d model crops

yeah blockbench, great help

I'm having the crops piggyback off of an invisible beetroot crop for their growth cycles

[grim quail]

Ah.

Clever.

I was wondering how you managed the actual block aspect of it.

How did you make the beetroot invisible?

[mossy tide]

I screwed the texture into being transparent

[cloud sigil]

Making minecraft style crops is pretty easy tbh. Just get the model you currently have, and make it flat. Then copy paste the flat plane either 2 or 4 times (I think wheat uses 4) and cross them together in a square or X. And there you have your minecraft style crop. If thats not the style you want ignore this ofc

[mossy tide]

:)

[grim quail]

Then what about actual beetroot?

[cloud sigil]

who eats beetroot

[foggy gorge]

nobody

[cloud sigil]

exactly

[foggy gorge]

dingdingding

[mossy tide]

I'll remake it later into the 3d model version

[cloud sigil]

ahh so youre going for the 3d style

[grim quail]

I thought you did something like fakeblock air for everyone on the server.

[foggy gorge]

what do we look like, dwight from the office

[mossy tide]

It just looks better as 3d

[mossy tide]

I just didn't realize I could do that

I imagine my method would have less errors as wouldn't you have to fakeblock it every time a player enters render or something

[grim quail]

I-

Don't actually know if that is how that works.

[mossy tide]

I don't know either!

[grim quail]

This sounds like a TIAS

[mossy tide]

It also sounds like a, "It works, why break it!"

:)

[cloud sigil]

amen

[grim quail]

True. Not to mention I don't know how well it'll work with blocks that alter the existing block.

Such as growth.

[mossy tide]

Yeah I'm running a lot of flagging and data off of the beetroot crop itself

Here's my block I have for the crop growth:
https://paste.denizenscript.com/View/124979

[unkempt torrent]

Oohhh Item displays

[mossy tide]

Yess

[grim quail]

Pretty clever.

[mossy tide]

So it spawns the item display with the name input from the crop

[unkempt torrent]

Hm interesting

I think I would work with entity flags for stage

Instead of multiple entities

[mossy tide]

Well it removes the entity and spawns the new one

Can you easily just change the item in the display?

[cloud sigil]

wait so the actual crop is an item display?

with an invisible beetroot

[mossy tide]

It's an item display sitting ontop of an invisible beetroot

[cloud sigil]

hmm

I see

[mossy tide]

ye

[grim quail]

Yeah, just replace the item with the item mech.

[mossy tide]

Wish I figured that out sooner. I'll change that when I get the next batch of crops to code and model

Yeah

@mossy tide look, i found you on the youtube https://youtube.com/shorts/HWpKS0O05cc?si=4bibcrhyeUdj2-FS

[bitter crown]

simple DPS tracker:

    debug: false
    type: world
    events:
      on player damages entity:
      - flag <player> dps:+:<context.damage.round_to[1]>
dps_reset:
    debug: false
    type: world
    events:
      on delta time secondly every:1:
      - foreach <server.online_players> as:__player:
          - flag <player> dps:!```

I use this on the action bar so players can see their DPS

and a placeholder that pulls that flags value

[grim quail]

!t online_players_flagged

[weary moth]

Tag: <server.online_players_flagged[<flag_name>]>

Returns a list of all online players with a specified flag set.
Can use "!<flag_name>" style to only return players *without* the flag.

Returns

ListTag(PlayerTag)

[grim quail]

Might be better.

[bitter crown]

it flags everyone

cwhen they hit

anyone who hits gets flagged

I see what you mean

But

[grim quail]

You're flagging the attacker, and foreaching all online players and removing the flag. I'm saying it'd be better to forloop players flagged with dps

[bitter crown]

yes, but by how much realsitcially?

[grim quail]

I suppose I see your point. Might be worth a thread asking if it's worthwhile.

[bitter crown]

i did change*

Im just saying its such a negligible impact

i also wrote:

    debug: false
    type: world
    events:
        on player damages entity:
        - ratelimit <player> 1s
        - if <player.item_in_hand.raw_nbt.get[MMOITEMS_ITEM_TYPE].after[:].if_null[null]> == DAGGER && <player.item_in_offhand.raw_nbt.get[MMOITEMS_ITEM_TYPE].after[:].if_null[null]> == DAGGER && <player.item_in_hand.raw_nbt.get[MMOITEMS_ITEM_ID].after[:].if_null[null]> == <player.item_in_offhand.raw_nbt.get[MMOITEMS_ITEM_ID].after[:].if_null[null]>:

                - execute as_server "ml tempstat add <player.name> ATTACK_DAMAGE <context.damage.mul[2]> 20 default"```

for mmmoitems to sort of hack-ish method of dual wielding

.

[grim quail]

Lowkey feel like you should make that a proc instead of a lengthy nbt tag, but that's my personal opinion.

[bitter crown]

a proc?

[grim quail]

A procedure.

[bitter crown]

It needs to check NBT since denizen doesnt have support for mmoitems

[grim quail]

I'm saying is, wouldn't it be better to make your own procedure that returns that information instead of putting down the exact same lengthy tags up to 2 or 4 times?

<player.proc[mmoitem_type].context[hand]> and it'd run that big nbt tag you're doing? Could even define them prior.

Maybe it's just my type of practice.

Cool though.

Isn't it the right channel?

[unkempt torrent]

You clicked the forum thread that explicity says NOT FOR QUESTIONS / SUPPORT

[grim quail]

Been fiddling around, managed to make a small replica of Infernal Mobs through denizen.

Mobs have specific blacklisted affixes. Ex: Blazes don't have fire resistance, cave spiders can't have poison, shulkers can't have knockback immunity. Etc.

It's an excuse to play with mob scaling.

[cosmic tide]

Sorry to be the one to tell you this....

But check your ping

[old venture]

@quartz wraith didn't you make this too once? or did it get abandoned?

[old venture]

sick

infernal mobs will always be a cool concept

[quartz wraith]

https://github.com/acikek/chaozen/tree/main/plugins/Denizen/scripts/mobs/modifiers

it was written really poorly but i made it data driven

[old venture]

yeah it remember being in chaozen

so it really was you

[old venture]

@grim quail is yours data driven too?

[quartz wraith]

it’s licensed under MIT so idgaf what anyone does with it

[old venture]

that sounds so fancy

[quartz wraith]

mob_mod_speedy:
    type: world
    debug: false
    mob_modifier:
        type: prefix
    events:
        after entity_flagged:mob_modifiers.speedy spawns:
            - adjust <context.entity> speed:<context.entity.speed.mul[1.5]>

for the mob modifiers (both suffix and prefix) you would just make a world script with the name starting with “mob_mod_” and a data key called “mob_modifier”

also i cant tell if you’re insinuating that i “made it first in denizen” because i absolutely did not, i think adriftus did, which is where i got the idea. not to mention that the whole concept is based on infernal mobs

[grim quail]

There's a huge data container for the rarity of the mob, prefix/suffix blacklist per entity type, and the suffix/prefixes display and potential modifiers that are used in a choose/case during a run task to apply them as a modified mob. Usually adjusting their base attributes in some form unless it's something special like vamprism or random status effects applied on hit.

Rarity also influencing some of these modifiers such as walk speed/attack damage.

I'm running it in a mcve before I put it onto my personal project server, because while attributes for damage is nice, I completely override damage for my personal server and dictate stuff via a data container for every single mob.

[quartz wraith]

oh yeah that is a thing i forgot to add, all the modifiers have the same chance to be added to a mob

so there is no weighting system which sucks when you have a modifier that just makes the mob super powerful

[grim quail]

Ye. Can't let have blazes have fire res and such.

Also have to flag the server with every single mob so I can delta forloop em for visual fx.

[quartz wraith]

another thing i didn’t do, particles, i forgot about those

[grim quail]

It's cool trying to think up names.

I had to look up a mob generator to remember what attributes did what, and which attributes can be assigned to mobs. Because attack speed isn't changable sadly.

Like, TIL there is water movement and oxygen bonus (???) attributes.

[quartz wraith]

weird

[low night]

guess that's for the enchantments for depth strider and respiration

[grim quail]

Well that's just terrifying in a sense. I continue to make a few more extra affixes to slap on.

Immune means they're immune to any negative effect, so withering, poison, weakness, and others will not work on them. Chaos means they will randomly put a bad effect on you when they strike.

Eventually I plan to let their rarity (Color) dictate how strong and long an effect is given.

[cold grotto]

how tf does if_null or exists even work 😭 im looking at internals and... wat

[graceful laurel]

if a valid elementtag is provided, it’ll return true

[mossy egret]

my guess is - look how its registered on ElementTag.class, so the tag only exists for elementtags

things that return null don't return elementtags

so it won't use this tag, and it won't return ElementTag(true)

[low radish]

that's just not even how that code works at all

[low radish]

the actual relevant implementation is in the core internals that handle tag errors, there's code to look for those special case tags and handle uniquely -- if it hits the method you screenshotted then it definitely exists

[mossy egret]

Heya, how does denizen compare in terms of performance to say skript?

Skript really decreases performance on large servers

[grim quail]

I swear every half year we get this question.

[graceful laurel]

im sure it depends on your use case

in my experience with some larger things though, it's been pretty performant and works pretty well

unsure about it in comparison to skript though as i've never used skript

[dark hill]

Wow you're not kidding! A quick search of "skript" came up with posts from January and August of 2023 and 2024

[old venture]

i never saw anyone complaining about denizen hurting performance

and when there is someone doing that, spark profiles say denizen's not the culprit

and as far as i've scripted, if it lags you did it wrong

[low night]

Denizen is well optimized

[mossy tide]

It took all day, but I am getting projectiles working slowly, It's my first time working with raycasting and moving display entities, but I'm using some old code for magic to get an understanding to how to do particles. I already see I'm gunna have to redo it entirely as I'm doing a particle for every half a block and I can see it puts a strain on the server to render and check for targets.

Anyways, here's Burger Projectile.

I posted this alongside the sneakpeak in my server

[tepid hull]

#actives-only message

[dry lily]

nice music thanks

[mossy tide]

I think this came out really nice

Currently the projectiles are using an old targeting foreach from the old magic system I was cannibalizing, so it's kind of laggy. I want to see if I can have the particle to instead Mount the projectile Item Display and do it like that.

Yeah that would prob work too, I'll have to also rework the targeting. Lemme show how it's being done currently.

    - foreach <[loc1].points_between[<[loc2]>].distance[0.5]> as:value:
      - playeffect effect:dust special_data:2|<color[<[color]>]> at:<[value]> offset:0
      - wait 2t
      - foreach <[value].find_entities.within[1].exclude[<player>|<[projectile_entity]>]> as:target:
        - if <[target]> in <[target_list]>:
          - foreach stop
        #- narrate "found <[target].entity_type>"
        - define target_list:->:<[target]>
        - hurt <[damage]> <[target]>

[unkempt torrent]

I'll will help you then

[dreamy orbit]

Finally took the decision. Im removing mmoitems and writing all the systems i Will Need in denizen directly.

[unkempt torrent]

yay

[raven barn]

+> YAY!!!

[unkempt torrent]

This will make so many things easier for you

[dreamy orbit]

Idk all the hard stuff was managing lore changes. At the end It Will be a lot the same for that

(I think)

this is the ""hard"" stuff i'm handling and that take me a lot of time to make correct every time.

idk if this will be more simple or the same removing mmoitems and using only denizen

[unkempt torrent]

woah white mode

Is this vscode?

[dreamy orbit]

Nha got it from my git repo

[mossy tide]

Looking at it, is this converting Mmoitems when you receive them? If so then it's just a bandage until you actually convert them on the backend with item scripts

[graceful laurel]

i'd imagine it's some sort o inventory gui thing

[mossy tide]

You could also simplify some of your definitions like stat_value since you're already defining the raw_nbt. It'd just be like <[raw_nbt].get[MMOITEMS_<[stat]>].after[:]>

But I could be wrong in that tag, writing tags on mobile is ass

Idk I'm one who overly relys on definitions

[dreamy orbit]

That Is a gui script to change a dtst of an item and update the custom lore

Idk why i did not define a raw nbt but i think there was a rradon but this script Is kinda old so i dont Remember clearly

[fleet kernel]

what does the mmoitem config look like

might want to boot back up my mythic to denizen project again

[deft ginkgo]

breeze rod isn't a valid material apparently (in vscode)

i was thinking that probaly i could make a dynamic lore building script that build the lore for all the items but idk will have to experimentate.

[old venture]

couldnt you theoretically just read the yaml?

like i know its possible just dont know if it'd be better

[unkempt tinsel]

Does anyone know how to lock spectator_target
I mean to not let player shift and quit entity spectating

[wild cosmos]

!m spectate

[weary moth]

Mechanism: spectate

Forces the player to spectate from the entity's point of view, using a packet (meaning, the player starts spectating clientside, but not serverside).
The player will not move from their existing location serverside.
To cause real spectator mode spectating, use !mechanism PlayerTag.spectator_target
Note that in some cases you may want to force the player into the spectate gamemode prior to using this mechanism.
Note: They cannot cancel the spectating without a re-log -- you must make them spectate themselves to cancel the effect.
Like: - adjust <player> spectate:<player>

Object

PlayerTag

Input

EntityTag

[wild cosmos]

write a python script to convert some of it automatically

Command: Yaml

Syntax

yaml [create]/[load:<file>]/[loadtext:<text> raw_format]/[unload]/[savefile:<file>]/[copykey:<source_key> <target_key> (to_id:<name>)]/[set <key>([<#>])(:<action>):<value> (data_type:{string}/integer/double/boolean/auto)] [id:<name>]

Short Description

Edits YAML data, especially for YAML files.

Description

Edits YAML configuration data.

This commands exists primarily for interoperability with pre-existing data files and other plugins.
It should never be used for storing data that only Denizen needs to use. Consider instead using !command flag.

Use waitable syntax ("- ~yaml load:...") with load or savefile actions to avoid locking up the server during file IO.
Refer to !language ~waitable.

For loading and saving, the starting path is within 'plugins/Denizen'.
The file path follows ...

[old venture]

there's also tons of tags for yaml

[mossy tide]

Hey since it's not really a denizen issue exactly, anyone know why the coloring isn't working properly for VScode? Just opened it up and tried to close and open multiple times, it sticks with the last color it was doing.

I've had the problem in the past, but it was fixed by just reopening the file

Oh annoying I opened another file I had and it fixed, ignore me then

[grim quail]

Usually just opening another fixes it. It's a common issue and I don't know if there is ever going to be a perma fix.

[mossy tide]

How dare someone use the pronouns section for pronouns

[mossy tide]

I still find that section funny with it's limit. Just look at mine

Wait tf it's gone. You could put 20 characters long for your pronouns

Oh it was just on my home server

[grim quail]

It's always pronouns and not amateurnouns

[dreamy orbit]

Always forget it exists lol

[foggy ember]

The laptop is fine, just the a fan died because Portugal gets very hot and dusty and we didn't have proper AC till recently - it's a very easy fix, Lenovo is just taking forever to deliver the part for some reason

[snow sonnet]

Hi, just letting you know, the link on the spigot page that supposedly goes to the latest devbuild, actually goes to a 5 month old build. Might wanna update it.

[low radish]

what link now?

if you mean the link to the latest release build, yeah that hasn't been updated in a while as spigot itself hasn't been stable, I haven't had time to focus on things, and aya's laptop is dead

ie: upstream is unstable and us devs aren't active enough to compensate

er, s/spigot/minecraft basically

the whole 1.20.6 update kerfuffle

[low radish]

yeah those are the release builds

[snow sonnet]

Ah fair enough. At first I think I didn't realise the large gap between the dev and release builds

And I hadn't gone down to the Dev builds link further down

I assumed someone forgot to update the link or something haha

[lament verge]

man I didn't know 1.20.6+ update is still in shambles for spigot/minecraft

I was actually waiting for these to like get stable so I can continue working on a server

[mossy tide]

I just kept working on my stuff and gave up on stuff that is broken as I know it'll be available to fix later.

[lament verge]

yeah thats what I'm doing rn. some of the features on the modules I worked on broke so I had to shelf them until tthings becomes stable

so rn just stopped doing dev coz everything else is done reworking

[grim quail]

Same. Need some problems alleviated, but I know this is a free plugin and it takes time to work things out.

Really looking forward to that scaling attribute.

[mossy tide]

Yeah same I think it works currently in 1.21 but I haven't had a need to test with it. I know stuff will be fixed eventually. This plugin honestly really opened me up to having fun with coding. Only problem now is time and motivation to finish projects. :(

[low radish]

if i was currently running a server and needed use of any of the things that broke, i'd be sitting on 1.20.4

not ideal but that's the last relatively stable version

[grim quail]

Unfortunately, scaling is 1.20.5 :(

[mossy tide]

Sadly I already updated and ran on 1.21 for a bit and I found that trying to downgrade the world on the server caused it to crash the server on launch.

[wild cosmos]

ye downgrading is never supported

[errant cairn]

any1 knows how to disable falldamage?

[grim quail]

I'm not sure how thats related to denizen.

[feral stirrup]

Good point

[mossy tide]

Ooooh I hate that, I was halfway through writing a support thread since Definemap stopped working when I was using it for the first time and I didn't know why(I still don't) and then I went to add another key to the map since I forgot it for a spell component and it works just fine.

like why tf isn't the coloring working properly its frustrating, makes me think its borked

[wild cosmos]

yea known issue

[tepid hull]

Try to avoid using ||, though, if needed, use .if_null[]
Then again, avoid relying on fallbacks alltogether.

[mossy tide]

It's sort of needed when I'm relying off a single modular script to parse data from items with different possible flag dates.

[dawn flower]

What's wrong with fallbacks

[tepid hull]

https://guide.denizenscript.com/guides/troubleshooting/common-mistakes.html#don-t-overuse-fallbacks

If there's reason to believe that flag might not exist, you can check with has_flag[] prior, or even as a global condition.

[dawn flower]

Fair point for the flags but fallbacks in general are great imo if you know when and where to use them

[dawn flower]

although the simplest way to do this (imo) is just store all the stats the runestone has under 1 flag map

that way you don't have to deal with nulls and only have the stats that are existent

[mossy tide]

Appreciate the suggestion, I might change it around later, but I think how I've got it handled with the definemap above is workin great since I am passing it through a run task which has each definition it needs so it grabs that and ignores the extra defs. I tried to make it modular.

I might put it in a showcase if I get it in an actually useable state, its more of a proof of concept right now trying to setup different types of runestones/spell bases. The basic concept of the system is different Gemstones represent different possible spells when put in combination with targeters such as projectile, utility, touch. A Ruby might do a Fireball spell when used with a projectile targeter, whereas a Sapphire could freeze ice around you when used with a Utility targeter.

So far I've gotten basically 4 different element types working for gems and a random gem size function when the gems spawn which modulate the power and uses of a created spell. Am very happy hence my block of text(It's almost 5 AM, kill me please)

[dry lily]

ill just keep using || cuz there is no problem with that

[unkempt torrent]

The problem with || is that it becomes a little messy when using tags in fallbacks

[wild cosmos]

and it looks weird

[low night]

avoid using them in monster tags

in a single tag, probably not the worst idea

[grim quail]

I really need to remember to turn off my self debugging messages when I'm trying to do something unrelated.

[unkempt torrent]

MONSTERS HATE THIS ONE TRICK.

[mossy tide]

Hey atleast it's not as bad as some of the ideas from my team. They wanted Avian players to lay eggs every now and then

[grim quail]

I mean.

I get it.

But probably only if they pressed sneak and the delay was over.

Next thing you know you're having 10 players squat to egg farm with the chickens and you coded up a golden egg chance.

[mossy tide]

Cursed

[grim quail]

We do have #1098024603756015726 but I think that's a different idea of cursed.

[unkempt torrent]

@zealous frost I think your script's missing usage instructions https://forum.denizenscript.com/threads/discord-marketplace-script.633/

[zealous frost]

Thank you for letting me know, I'll fix it later when I'm available

[grim quail]

I almost had to make a post for my issue, until I realized I was missing vault for an economy script container.

Turns out if you don't, denizen doesn't recognize the script type economy. I feel like it should be a little more informative than that, but you know.

( Also it even ignored the enabled key which I was hoping would be read first. )

[graceful laurel]

ive done that a couple of times lol

[delicate stag]

does this mean 1.20.1 is not supported or wth?

!patchversions

[weary moth]

Info: patchversions

We support only the latest patch-version of Minecraft for any recent main version (and Mojang, Spigot, Paper, etc. all generally also follow the same rule).

"Patch version" means the last number in a version label, for example in 1.20.6, the main version is 1.20, and the patch version is .6.
So if 1.20.6 is the latest patch version, then 1.20.3, and 1.20(.0) are all outdated patch versions, and therefore are unsupported.

Note that we do still support recent older main versions (such as 1.19 and 1.18) so long as you are on the latest patch-version of those main versions (like 1.19.4 and 1.18.2).

[delicate stag]

oh shit

well sorry

[grim quail]

Reminder that this is for discussion, not support as per the pinned message.

[delicate stag]

ye i saw that little late 😦

[grim quail]

If you need help updating your server to a recent patch you can make a thread though.

[delicate stag]

got it working now its just weird system that patch thingy

[grim quail]

If you mean it's weird how we drop support for versions that are not the latest patch, it's because it's better to remain on more supported versions that already have bugfixes, performance increases and vulnerabilities patched out.

Helpers and developers have explained this before, but I realize it's not in the info box.

One can argue the same thing for remaining on 1.19.4, but I don't have an answer for that.

Which I'm just assuming stability.

There's also the spigot limitation of file size and files.

Description

Many object tag types contains options and properties that need to be adjusted.
Denizen employs a mechanism interface to deal with those adjustments.
To easily accomplish this, use this command with a valid object mechanism, and sometimes accompanying value.

Specify "def:<name>" as an input to adjust a definition and automatically save the result back to the definition.

You can optionally adjust a MapTag of mechanisms to values.

To adjust an item in an inventory, use !command inventory...

Congratulations @mossy tide! You're now at level 9!

[mossy tide]

Maybe I'm just really cold since its past midnight, I should sleep

I'm gunna make a regenerating dungeon system that players can clear and then tear apart for building materials and it'll then auto regenerate after a week

[grim quail]

That's..

Not something I've thought about.

[mossy tide]

Lemme repost from my dev server.

My idea is to have a final objective block that acts as the ward/protection of the dungeon at the end of it where the player can break to dispel the protections. Think of it like a dungeon core. Once broken, it'll send a flag to the server stating its been beaten and to put itself up for full looting and recycling.

Once the storm begins it will check every dungeon in a list and if its eligible for regenerating, it will run that dungeon's regen task.

This will constitute a multi-stage process as follows:

1. Unregister any mob spawners
2. Kill any entities inside
3. Remove all Blocks
4. Paste in new Schematic
5. Spawn all special decorations or entities at specified Coords
6. Spawn Mob Spawners
7. Place Chests with loot tables
8. Remove itself from being Eligible in the list

Storm being my server cleanup and reload event happening weekly

Think of it like Stalker's Emissions or Elona's Ether Winds. Very deadly events that happen just as life events

I keep getting an urge to make a discussion thread just with the title, "What can't denizen do?" Everytime I manage to finish a milestone on my coding project or when I find the exact weird tag I need to input.

[unkempt torrent]

runjava

[sinful spindle]

I'm sure you could manage to run java with webget somehow lol

[unkempt torrent]

true

send a request on your backend server

[grim quail]

You're right, let's use webget to pull denizen scripts and hot load them and then delete them when no longer necessary. Why? Because we can.

[graceful laurel]

time to make denizen²

[dawn flower]

Reminds me of that guy that made a computer in mc to play mc

[mossy tide]

You can do multi line inputs in just the ingame chat for just using the /ex command right?

[sinful spindle]

right

[grim quail]

It's been a while, so I forget how you do that.

[mossy tide]

Hence the question which I realize now is not really a question.

[sinful spindle]

perhaps you should put a question in the question place if that was meant as one

note: this is not the question place

[mossy tide]

My only concern is opening too many quickly answered posts. I'm self conscious man

[low radish]

making new posts is only a problem if what you posted is identical to what somebody else already asked & got an answer for

which is the whole point of the forum system, to have a long term catalog of past questions & answers

if your question has never been asked before, then it's actively helpful to make a post, as that adds to the catalog for future users to find

[foggy ember]

If you include stuff like webget then there's very little it can't do (other then stuff your computer itself can't do while already running) - can always write whatever you want with whatever language and run it from Denizen one way or another

[dawn flower]

/ex repeat 1 { - command 1 - command 2 }

[mossy tide]

I wanted to share my new model, it's my dungeon core. You go up to it and smash it to "clear" the dungeon and remove the protections which will allow you to break any blocks.

[grim quail]

Fascinating.

I thought about that.

[grim quail]

Say, is there a tutorial you followed at all for this? I'd be interested in making models like this.

[mossy tide]

Haha, all on my own. I'll be happy to share any of my BB models if you'd like. But to give context of this one above, I originally just made it as one single model then got the idea to have it spin so I separated it into two models and have it spawn as item displays of course. Then I just had the center model spinnnn. I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to art so I'm just winging it!

The glowy particles coming off is actually just two end rods. Delta Time event particles scare me for lag reasons.

[mossy tide]

Someone send help, I've been coding with Denizen in my dreams. I barely feel like I'm getting sleep as my brain stays active.

[graceful laurel]

/ex adjust <human[Talfein]> denizen_dreams:false

[mossy tide]

Oh man it was so bad I was having some kind of existential nightmare that for some reason everything in the world was built from tags and I could read it.

[mossy tide]

Who here is a fan of the 2006 Game of the Year winner?

[grim quail]

I never even thought about making an extended item just for that.

[mossy tide]

I originally was gunna import textures right from the game, but that got squished... Then realized I can just make a model myself with BB

[rustic drift]

cape i made for someone with simple Denizen particles

[grim quail]

You say particles, but that cape looks like shaders or a client mod.

[mossy tide]

It's actually a model with a display offset in their offhand, neat

[graceful laurel]

love it

[mossy tide]

Guess who just spent 3+ hours learning how to make custom GUIs using fonts and extremely sub-par art skills?

[rigid idol]

Discord Levels Bot

Level up!

Congratulations @mossy tide! You're now at level 10!

[mossy tide]

cool

[grim quail]

Yours looks better than mine.

Yours has a more unique look to it.

I just kind of stretched textures lol.

[mossy tide]

man it was so painful to do as I am so bad at art, I took an image from an Oblivion mod to use as essentially a stencil

I still don't know why it went black and white when I imported it

[grim quail]

That

Is interesting.

[rustic drift]

some texture's have locked color modes because of compression, you have to set it to rgb again with your editing software

[mossy tide]

Guess who went right back at messing with sprites and fonts

[spiral yew]

lord help me im about to sin

[dim yarrow]

this screenshot looks like it's from the hospital, dude

[mossy tide]

What

[spiral yew]

What were the log commands again

./denizen debug -r

nvm

[unkempt torrent]

!dbug

!debugf

!debug

[weary moth]

Info: debug

If you need help with a script issue, one of the most powerful tools Denizen has to offer is full debug output. This is displaying in your console whenever scripts are running until you turn debug off. To share a debug log quickly and easily with helpers, simply run the command /denizen debug -r in-game to begin recording, then run through the part of the script you need help with, then run the command /denizen submit. This will give you a link to a paste of the debug log, which you can then copy/paste back to us!

I think you pulled this up for yourself.

i need to rebind something for it to be less buttons but im here for it

This comment still confuses me, what hospital is he refencing? Did he mean an X-ray?

[spiral yew]

it do be looking like an xray or ct scan

bro swallowed the lock UI from oblivion

all me scripts are broken

sad day

probably related to all the new changes but not sure aha

im so rusty on denizen that i just caught myself putting text in double quotes and commenting with //

Like that yeah

!mohist

[weary moth]

Info: mohist

Our plugins (Citizens, Sentinel, and Denizen) officially support both Spigot and Paper.
Any other forks of the Bukkit project are not supported, but may or may not work in practice.

• Lower forks, like CraftBukkit, do not function. You must upgrade to a higher fork (Spigot or Paper).

• Hard forks and cross-forks, like Cauldron/Magma/Mohist/Any other Forge-integration fork, or Cardboard/any other Fabric-integration fork, will not work. Some unofficial custom builds of Citizens are made to support these servers, but we cannot provide any support for them here.

• Higher forks above Spigot/Paper, such as Purpur, Airplane, etc. are compatible with Citizens only as much as they are compatible with Spigot/Paper. They are generally expected to work in most cases, but we cannot make any guarantees. We will still offer support to users running such forks, but be aware that if you encounter bugs while running such a fork, we may ask you to replicate them on Spigot/Paper to confirm they aren't caused by changes the fork made.

[primal sonnet]

This will never be a thing? Does it need a certain amount of people to be interested in a Mohist Denizen?

[mossy tide]

Hey you're likely more than welcome to do it yourself, but it's too much work to maintain support for an entire loaders like Forge or Fabric when the entirety of the plugins here are coded for supporting Bukkit style loaders. As it says on there, it'll be unofficial eitherway. From what I see here, this whole project is volunteer work, so there's that.

[old venture]

is there a custom model to mob code in denizen?

[grim quail]

What?

Do you mean using custom models to be mobs? This sounds like a...

Please pay attention when participating in channels.

Dev build 7081 is the last one for 1.21.1. https://ci.citizensnpcs.co/job/Denizen_Developmental/7081/

This isn't a support channel.

We are too trigger happy to immediately make people feel dumb for asking something in this channel.

Eh, a helper will tell if either us are wrong.

They made a post just a bit ago about the build you provided not working properly.
As Legacy said and posted a picture of the only pinned messaged here, this channel is not for support questions, as they often don't have a simple answer and need clarifications etc

It's amazing that you want to help but try doing it in accordance to the system that is set up here

Sorry, my phone is cursed D:

[pseudo jewel]

Must have a valid (HTTP/HTTPS) URL any solution?

[wild cosmos]

??

[spiral yew]

Do any of you use denizen alone to control your chat colors/groups?

I am curious because I'm trying out LPC and i might have more success with what I want if I were to implement it instead myself using denizen.

[wild cosmos]

yea

[grim quail]

We rolled over this in #actives-only I believe.

[spiral yew]

Yeah it was a cool idea.

I was curious if others have tried it haha

Maybe you're crazy! You're the odd one out!

[grim quail]

My entire procedure is around 182 lines, but that's including it's data scripts inside.

[spiral yew]

What are data scripts?

[grim quail]

Data script containers, you can put them inside of other scripts if necessary.

[spiral yew]

I haven't messed with denizen much outside of world scripts, item scripts, and I think I did a few "function" scripts that you can call from anywhere.

[grim quail]

!l data script container

[weary moth]

Language: Data Script Containers

Data script containers are generic script containers for information that will be referenced by other scripts.

No part of a 'data' script container is ever run as commands.

There are no required keys.

Generally, data is read using the !tag ScriptTag.data_key tag.

data_script_name:

    type: data

    # Your data here
    some_key: some value
    some_list_key:
    - some list value
    some_map_key:
        some_subkey: some value

Group

Script Container System

[grim quail]

They're static containers, think of em as configs.

[spiral yew]

Ah I see

[grim quail]

While you can call them externally, some of them can be in the script itself.

my_script:
  type: task
  data:
    my_data: <&e>It's a message.
  script:
    - narrate <script.parsed_key[data.my_data]>

Etc.

[spiral yew]

Makes sense.

[grim quail]

I needed the data scripts inside of my procedure because of information such as colors, resource pack chat font, titles and prefixes.

[spiral yew]

I was thinking of adding a title system

like you can earn titles and click through them

instead of having group names

you'd still have groups but like it wouldn't be what shows up in that box that usually shows your rank or whatever.

[grim quail]

Possible. I did similar.

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/780145796716822569/1107516860573945917/image.png?ex=6736c674&is=673574f4&hm=97f7a4e10ceef80a970ed34fcbb7174c9824b86bfb3533da1912cae7bc5d4ff4&

[spiral yew]

neat for sure

[grim quail]

I let users choose what ranks to display.

[spiral yew]

Oh wait that's interesting you can customize the inventory screens like that?

What even is that kind of display?

It looks like your normal player inventory but with a backpack or something from a mod

I know it's vanilla of course

[grim quail]

!l inventory script container

[weary moth]

Language: Inventory Script Containers

Inventory script containers are an easy way to pre-define custom inventories for use within scripts.
Inventory scripts work with the InventoryTag object, and can be fetched with the Object Fetcher by using the
InventoryTag constructor InventoryTag_script_name.

Example: - inventory open d:MyInventoryScript

The following is the format for the container.

The 'inventory:' key is required, other keys vary based on the type.
Some types will require you define either 'size:' or 'slots:' (or both).
'Procedural items:' and 'definitions:' are optional, and should only be defined if needed.

# The name of the script is the same name that you can use to construct a new
# InventoryTag based on this inventory script. For example, an inventory script named 'Super_Cool_Inventory'
# can be referr

I'll have to look into it all again, it's been a while haha 😅

[spiral yew]

Is there a location for known bugs?

[rustic drift]

you can press the bug filter on the threads

[spiral yew]

Thanks

[fleet kernel]

yes

i use teams to sort then on the tablisy

[old venture]

lpc? luckperms?

if so then that's one of the three plugins that shouldn't be made with denizen

in no particular order, they are, in my opinion:

• CoreProtect
• LuckPerms
• WorldEdit

[grim quail]

LPC is a chat plugin.

[old venture]

ah i see

then yeah go for it, denizen all the way

[grim quail]

Generally, yeah don't replace WorldEdit.

You can but it's better not to reinvent the wheel.

[old venture]

yeah like if you have a super specific idea that cannot be done in the plugin, for sure add it with denizen, but you definitely do not need to go all the way to completely rewrite these plugins

[unkempt torrent]

Why not

[old venture]

[graceful laurel]

@behr

[grim quail]

@mossy tide Regarding your script, you could easily <&sp.repeat[43]> or however long that space length is.

Instead of hard defining it.

!t elementtag.repeat

[weary moth]

Tag: <ElementTag.repeat[<#>]>

Returns a copy of the element, repeated the specified number of times.
For example, "hello" .repeat[3] returns "hellohellohello"
An input value or zero or a negative number will result in an empty element.

Group

element manipulation

Returns

ElementTag

[mossy tide]

Ah so that's how they suggested how to do it. Someone just told me "just repeat it" and I didn't remember to look it up

[grim quail]

Fair enough.

!t &sp

[weary moth]

Tag: <&sp>

Returns a space symbol.

Returns

ElementTag

[grim quail]

I use it for my borders too.

[mossy tide]

Didn't know if they meant - repeat <number> or what

[grim quail]

I mean, originally I did that for the first concept of borders and then I was told of that tag.

How are you going to handle actual dialogue? Like, a few sentences being put out.

Because I'd imagine you want to have it wait a bit between sentences.

[mossy tide]

Yeah....

[grim quail]

Oof.

[mossy tide]

I'm sure I can turn my dialog: key into a list tag and it'll narrate that

Ah you mean waits

eh we'll see what my new leader wants me to do

[grim quail]

Yeah, it may or may not be necessary. I did it for mine but mines still kind of uh..

https://paste.denizenscript.com/View/128347 My generic quest for writing down a template for dialogue is still WIP, but it's a little hacky with how I'm doing it? Reliant on data script usages.

Missing is the validity script, which just checks if the player is even online anymore and will kill the script if the player isn't there.

Because validation is important.

[mossy tide]

Yeah I probably will need to revamp the script later when we have more activity and need more advanced quests or npcs

I just figured, start simple

[grim quail]

That's fair.

I'll eventually figure out a way to make the entry dialogue dynamic, because I want there to be a list of options, and then sub options of quests if a staff member assigns the npc multiple quests. So that's gonna be interesting to figure out how to do.
