hey, i want to use the "ray_trace_target" tag and only target living entities.
Is there an easy way to get a list of all nonliving entities?
I wanted to use the "ignore" option to ignore all nonliving entity types.
Right now im going to use ignore=<list[DROPPED_ITEM|EXPERIENCE_ORB|AREA_EFFECT_CLOUD|EGG|LEASH_HITCH . . . . etc]>
going through spigot's entity type page and adding each nonliving one to the list...
There has got to be a better way to do this, is there not?
I tried <server.entity_types.filter[is_living]> but that doesnt really work because is_living seems to be for actual entities, not for elementtags of entity types..

Hi I'm AutoThreadBot! Don't mind me, I'll just be adding the helper team to this thread so they can see it. A human will get to you soon.

Sorry i got a bit mixed up, im actually using entities= to specify a list of all living entities, excluding nonliving ones.
this list:
<server.entity_types.exclude[DROPPED_ITEM|EXPERIENCE_ORB|AREA_EFFECT_CLOUD|EGG|LEASH_HITCH|LEASH_HITCH|ARROW|SNOWBALL|FIREBALL|FIREBALL|ENDER_PEARL|ENDER_SIGNAL|SPLASH_POTION|THROWN_EXP_BOTTLE|ITEM_FRAME|WITHER_SKULL|PRIMED_TNT|FALLING_BLOCK|FIREWORK|SPECTRAL_ARROW|SHULKER_BULLET|DRAGON_FIREBALL||ARMOR_STAND|EVOKER_FANGS|MINECART_COMMAND|BOAT|MINECART|MINECART_CHEST|MINECART_FURNACE|MINECART_TNT|MINECART_HOPPER|MINECART_MOB_SPAWNER|LLAMA_SPIT|ENDER_CRYSTAL|TRIDENT|GLOW_ITEM_FRAME|MARKER|CHEST_BOAT|BLOCK_DISPLAY|INTERACTION|ITEM_DISPLAY|TEXT_DISPLAY|FISHING_HOOK|LIGHTNING|UNKNOWN]>

So, is there an easier/neater way of getting that list? or only targeting living entities for ray_trace_target

ObjectType: EntityTag

An EntityTag represents a spawned entity, or a generic entity type.

Note that players and NPCs are valid EntityTags, but are generally represented by the more specific
PlayerTag and NPCTag objects.

Note that a spawned entity can be a living entity (a player, NPC, or mob) or a nonliving entity (a painting, item frame, etc).

This object type is flaggable.
Flags on this object type will be stored in the world chunk files as a part of the entity's NBT.

Prefix

e

Base Type

ElementTag

Implements

FlaggableObject, PropertyHolderObject

Format

The identity format for entities is a spawned entity's UUID, or an entity type.
For example, 'e@abc123' or 'e@zombie'.

!t ray_trace_target

# jagged sparrow !t ray_trace_target
Tag: <LocationTag.ray_trace_target[(range=<#.#>/{200});(blocks=<{true}/false>);(fluids=<true/{false}>);(nonsolids=<true/{false}>);(entities=<matcher>);(ignore=<entity>|...);(raysize=<#.#>/{0})]>

Traces a line from this location towards the direction it's facing, returning the first hit entity (if any).
This is similar to !tag LocationTag.precise_target and !tag PlayerTag.target, except offering more options for how the ray trace is performed.
For ray tracing locations, see !tag LocationTag.ray_trace.
Optionally specify:
range: (defaults to 200) a maximum distance (in blocks) to trace before giving up.
blocks: (defaults to true) specify "false" to ignore all blocks, ...

Examples
# Removes the entity a player is looking at.
- define target <player.eye_location.ray_trace_target[ignore=<player>]||null>
- if <[target]> != null:
    - remove <[target]>

# Returns any player within the view of an NPC.
- define target <npc.eye_location.ray_trace_target[entities=player;raysize=2]||null>

# Highlights an entity through any number or types of blocks.
- define target <player.eye_location.ray_trace_target[ignore=<player>;blocks=false]||null>
- if <[target]> != null:
    - adjust <[target]> glowing:true

always remember matchables, they're your bread and butter

#

to check them, just search !obj entitytag, or locationtag, etc
