(imfluxic) Explode not working

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.

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'm not seeing the explode command being used here?

i did debug, shot the bow and submitted

Maybe it's your script logic that prevents it

it seems the projectile doesn't have the flag to fire the `explode` event

ooh, i asked chatgpt to give me the flags for me to use and it told me yml was the correct format

uneven haven Apr 20, 2026, 4:26 PM

shouldn't use chatgpt to write scripts

teal roost Apr 20, 2026, 4:26 PM

i didnt write it, i was asking for flags

cause i could not find some

uneven haven Apr 20, 2026, 4:26 PM

What are flags?

teal roost Apr 20, 2026, 4:27 PM

#

uneven haven What are flags?

like "on player shoots bow"

#

so that is not needed?

uneven haven Apr 20, 2026, 4:27 PM

This is not a flag

#

This is an event label

The reason it did not explode is that there is only a 20% chance that your arrow explodes

#

that's why we did not see anything in debug

its not about exploding, its breaking the blocks around it

Command: Explode

Group

Syntax

explode (power:<#.#>) (<location>) (fire) (breakblocks) (source:<entity>)

Short Description

Causes an explosion at the location.

Description

This command causes an explosion at the location specified (or the npc / player location).
By default, this will not destroy blocks or set fire to blocks within the explosion.

Specify the 'fire' argument to set blocks on fire within the explosion radius.

Specify the 'breakblocks' argument to cause the explosion to break blocks within the power radius.

If no power is specified, the default power will be 1.

If no location is given, the default will be the linked NPC or player's location.
It is...

but i got kinda confused because i made a grappling hook and it worked on YML

uneven haven Apr 20, 2026, 4:32 PM

#

i'm pretty sure you used gpt here too

#

explode power:1 location:<[loc]> fire:false break_blocks:true

teal roost Apr 20, 2026, 4:33 PM

#

uneven haven i'm pretty sure you used gpt here too

i did try to debug it with gpt

uneven haven Apr 20, 2026, 4:33 PM

#

This is part of your script

#

break_blocks and fire do not take any values

#

more even, it's breakblocks without an underscore

#

remove fire:false and replace break_blocks:true with literal breakblocks

noble vale Apr 20, 2026, 4:35 PM

#

you can also remove power:1 since that's the default behavior

teal roost Apr 20, 2026, 4:35 PM

#

It work but its confusing, if YML is not the right format then why does it work?

noble vale Apr 20, 2026, 4:35 PM

#

it's a legacy format
