low adder !debug

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!

Command: Assignment

Required Plugins or Platforms

Citizens

Group

Syntax

assignment [set/add/remove/clear] (script:<name>) (to:<npc>|...)

Short Description

Changes an NPC's assignment.

Related Guide Page

https://guide.denizenscript.com/guides/npcs/assignment-scripts.html

Description

Changes an NPC's assignment as though you used the '/npc assignment' command.

Uses the script: argument, which accepts an assignment-type script.

Optionally, specify a list of NPCs to apply the trait to. If unspecified, the linked NPC will be used.

'Set' is equivalent to 'clear' + 'add'.

mossy bolt Mar 4, 2025, 9:27 PM

#

I believe you're missing the correct syntax.

#

You're supplying a script name, and then using npc: which is not a valid argument.

Syntax

create [<entity>] [<name>] (<location>) (traits:<trait>|...) (registry:<name>)

Short Description

Creates a new NPC, and optionally spawns it at a location.

Description

Creates an npc which the entity type specified, or specify an existing npc to create a copy.
If no location is specified the npc is created despawned.
Use the 'save:<savename>' argument to return the npc for later use in a script.

Optionally specify a list of traits to immediately apply when creating the NPC.

Optionally specify a custom registry to create the NPC into. (Most users, leave this option off).
Will generate a new registry if needed.

olive oriole !lang player and npc

Language: The Player and NPC Arguments

The "player:<player>" and "npc:<npc>" arguments are special meta-arguments that are available for all commands, but are only useful for some.
They are written like:

give stick player:<server.flag[some_player]>
or:
sit npc:<entry[save].created_npc>

Denizen tracks a "linked player" and a "linked NPC" in queues and the commands within.
Many commands automatically operate on the linked player/NPC default or exclusively
(for example, "give" defaults to giving items to the linked player but that can be changed with the "to" argument,
"sit" exclusively makes the linked NPC sit, and that cannot be changed except by the global NPC argument).

When the player argument is used, it sets the linked player for the specific command it's on.
This is only useful for commands that default to operating ...

Many newer scripters tend to not realize the important difference between "it works" and "it is correct". Just because a script works does not mean everything's fine.

Helpers are encouraged to refuse to continue helping a user with the "if it works it's good enough" mindset until they fix all the things that are wrong (but seem to work) in their script.
