(RextheOreo) Trying to make a command occur when right clicking any direction.

To be more specific, the event is when the player right clicks anything. However, I don't want the rest of the command triggering when the player isn't looking at a mob. I tried experimenting with the <player.can_see[*].if_null[false]> tag but that didn't work. Mind you, everything else in the script works, but I'm trying to refine it where it doesn't just trigger any time the player right clicks anything. I only want it to trigger when the player right clicks when looking at an entity.

think you're overcomplicating this

!t entitytag.target

[orchid falcon]

Tag: <EntityTag.target>

Returns the target entity of the creature or shulker_bullet, if any.
This is the entity that a hostile mob is currently trying to attack.

Group

attributes

Returns

EntityTag

[visual moat]

^this is probably the tag you actually want

or uhh

!t playertag.target

[orchid falcon]

Tag: <PlayerTag.target[(<matcher>)]>

Returns the entity that the player is looking at, within a maximum range of 50 blocks,
or null if the player is not looking at an entity.
Optionally, specify an entity type matcher to only count matches as possible targets.

Returns

EntityTag

same deal lol

[spark canyon]

Hmm, how would I write this? cuz this only returns the entity the player is looking at. Is it truly as simple as - if <player.target.if_null[false]>: ?

Level up!

Congratulations @spark canyon! You're now at level 13!

[visual moat]

you'd use .exists here

but otherwise ye

[spark canyon]

So, - if <player.target.exists>:?

[visual moat]

Sure

[spark canyon]

yup, this works. Thank you.

This works, but I got another question that's related on this script

So, I got that working for when the player is looking at an entity, but how do I get if a player looks at a block? Cuz I've tried using @TargetBlock through MythicMobs but that only really applies for whatever block I actually click on. I want the script to trigger when the player just right clicks in general.

I'll post what I got for this other half of the script

!t cursor_on

Cannot Specify Searched Tag

Multiple possible tags: <EntityTag.cursor_on[(<range>)]>, <EntityTag.cursor_on_solid[(<range>)]>, <LocationTag.precise_cursor_on[(<range>)]>, <LocationTag.precise_cursor_on_block[(<range>)]>.

err sorry

!t locationtag.ray

Cannot Specify Searched Tag

Multiple possible tags: <LocationTag.ray_trace[(range=<#.#>/{200});(return=<{precise}/block/normal>);(default=<{null}/air>);(fluids=<true/{false}>);(nonsolids=<true/{false}>);(entities=<matcher>);(ignore=<entity>|...);(raysize=<#.#>/{0})]>, <LocationTag.ray_trace[(range=<#.#>/{200});(return=<{precise}/block/normal>);(default=<{null}/air>);(fluids=<true/{false}>);(nonsolids=<true/{false}>);(entities=<matcher>);(ignore=<entity>|...);(raysize=<#.#>/{0})]>.

!t <LocationTag.ray_trace[(range=<#.#>/{200});(return=<{precise}/block/normal>);(default=<{null}/air>);(fluids=<true/{false}>);(nonsolids=<true/{false}>);(entities=<matcher>);(ignore=<entity>|...);(raysize=<#.#>/{0})]>

[orchid falcon]

Tag: <LocationTag.ray_trace[(range=<#.#>/{200});(return=<{precise}/block/normal>);(default=<{null}/air>);(fluids=<true/{false}>);(nonsolids=<true/{false}>);(entities=<matcher>);(ignore=<entity>|...);(raysize=<#.#>/{0})]>

Traces a line from this location, in the direction its facing, towards whatever block it hits first, and returns the location of where it hit.
This tag has also been referred to as 'cursor_on' or 'precise_cursor_on' in the past.
Using 'return=normal' instead replaces the old 'precise_impact_normal' tag.
Optionally specify:
range: (defaults to 200) a maximum distance (in blocks) to trace before giving up.
return: (defaults to precise)
specify "precise" to return the exact location of the hit ...

Returns

LocationTag

Examples

# Destroys whatever solid block the player is looking at.
- define target <player.eye_location.ray_trace[return=block]||null>
- if <[target]> != null:
    - modifyblock <[target]> air

# Spawns a heart wherever the player is looking, no more than 5 blocks away.
- playeffect effect:heart offset:0 at:<player.eye_location.ray_trace[range=5;entities=*;ignore=<player>;fluids=true;nonsolids=true;default=air]>
