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.

!e block drops

Event: block drops item from breaking

Group

Player

Event Lines

block drops item from breaking <block> drops <item> from breaking

Triggers

when a items drop from a block due to a player breaking the block in survival mode.

Has Player

Always. - this adds switches flagged:<flag name> + permission:<node>, in addition to the <player> link.

Context

<context.location> returns the LocationTag the block was broken at.
<context.material> returns the MaterialTag of the block that was broken.
<context.drop_entities> returns a ListTag of EntityTags of type DROPPED_ITEM. To get the list of I...

Has Known Location

True - this adds switches in:<area> + location_flagged:<flag name>.

Cancellable

True - this adds <context.cancelled> and determines cancelled + cancelled:false.

this should technically work

!debug

[signal crow]

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!

[somber bane]

can you record a debug of it?

I think I've already figured this out. The base for my block is sand. Could you help me with it? When it falls or moves with a piston it becomes normal

that is, default sand

[tight basin]

When custom items are placed they become normal blocks, that's just how Minecraft works

If you want a custom item that can be placed but still drops a custom item when broken, you'll need to store that data yourself (usually by flagging the block)

I understand that. Probably I said it wrong. I did tracking by coordinates, but I don't know how to do it if the block has already moved. Maybe some other plugin is needed for this? Chat GPT told me that I can try through Oraxen

[tight basin]

You can just handle it with events

!e piston

[signal crow]

Cannot Specify Searched Event

Multiple possible events: piston extends, piston retracts.

ok, i'll try. What about textures? Can i change them with denizen?

[tight basin]

!e entity changes block

[signal crow]

Event: entity changes block into block

Group

Entity

Event Lines

<entity> changes <block> (into <block>)

Triggers

when an entity changes the material of a block.

Has Player

when the entity that changed the block is a player. - this adds switches flagged:<flag name> + permission:<node>, in addition to the <player> link.

Context

<context.entity> returns the EntityTag that changed the block.
<context.location> returns the LocationTag of the changed block.
<context.old_material> returns the old material of the block.
<context.new_material> returns the new material of the block.

Has Known Location

True - this adds switches in:<area> + location_flagged:<flag name>.

Cancellable

True - this adds <context.cancelled> and determines cancelled + cancelled:false.

[tight basin]

And I believe this event for blocks falling (I.e. becoming falling block entities)

[tight basin]

Sure, I believe the most common approach these days is with a resource pack and display entities, but @somber bane would probably know more (might even be able to use their custom blocks system?)

[safe tree]

oh, is there a tutorial for this? I've been struggling with texture mapping through oraxen for a long time now
