        "controller.animation.blox.death": {
            "initial_state": "default",
            "states": {
                "default": {
                    "transitions": [{
                        "death": "!query.is_alive"
                    }]
                },
                "death": {
                    "run_command": {
                        "command": ["summon c:blox_death"]
                    }
                }
            }
        }

It said run command shouldn't be there,am i doing right
I was tryna summon an entity using command when this entity died

Animation Controllers don't use run_command, it uses the on_entry object followed directly by an array of commands:

#

{
    "format_version": "1.19.10",
    "animation_controllers": {
        "controller.animation.die": {
            "initial_state": "default",
            "states": {
                "default": {
                    "transitions": [
                        {
                            "death": "!q.is_alive"
                        }
                    ]
                },
                "death": {
                    "on_entry": [
                        "/summon pig ~~~"
                    ]
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

#

like so

#

unlike the newer files for entities and items, you do also require a "/" prior to animation controller commands

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 9:26 AM

#

Ohh

#

Thank you

#

Does it can put multiple commands

#

@thorny maple

#

like ["/..", "/.."]

#

Nvm ill try

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 9:32 AM

#

You can do multiple, just separate by commas 👍

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 9:37 AM

#

thorny maple You can do multiple, just separate by commas 👍

The commands didn't work even that i killed the entity

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 9:39 AM

#

Did you assign the animation controller with animations and scripts in the entity description?

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 9:40 AM

#

Oh in scripts,not yet

Still doesn't work

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 9:49 AM

Let me check something

Client

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 9:57 AM

#

well in regards to what you wanna do, you don't want to use the client side entity, because that's only for the looks of the game. What you want are the animations_controllers in the behaviors since that's the only way you'll get commands to register.

#

    "description": {
        "identifier": "minecraft:pig",
        "is_spawnable": true,
        "is_summonable": true,
        "is_experimental": false,
        "animations": {
            "death": "controller.animation.die"
        },
        "scripts": {
            "animate": [
                {
                    "death": "!q.is_alive"
                }
            ]
        }
    }
}

#

this is the description for a pig in the behavior pack, I paired it with the animation controller I had and it works ok

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 9:58 AM

#

What about the walk controller

#

I put two controllers

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 9:59 AM

#

oh I see, they need to be separated. One is client, one is behavior

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 9:59 AM

#

Ohh

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 9:59 AM

#

the walk you'll want to put into the resources

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 9:59 AM

#

So i can remove death controller?

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 10:00 AM

#

from the client side entity file, yea, the death will only go into the behavior entity file

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:00 AM

#

Ahh nice lemme try

#

Is animation controller need some changes

#

Because it didn't work lol

#

Oh nvm it worked

#

I have some typos

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 10:13 AM

#

ahh ok lol, I was gonna say thats my next idea to try

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:15 AM

#

thorny maple ahh ok lol, I was gonna say thats my next idea to try

Say it

#

Because it didn't work

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 10:15 AM

#

would you mind sending me the files you are using? I can run through them and check for any syntax errors

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:15 AM

#

I just fixed "controller.blox.death" into "controller.animation.blox.death" thought it would work

#

there's no syntax error showing

#

What file

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 10:17 AM

#

the entity you are tying it to, and the death animation controller

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:18 AM

#

📎 blox.json

#

Here

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 10:19 AM

#

thats the file you are using right now?

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:19 AM

#

Wym

#

Client entity?

#

oh yeah that was

#

the main

#

The other one is just for death animation when summoned

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 10:23 AM

#

oh wait, maybe I worded it wrong-

So, the controller blox.walk is invalid when its in the same .json as blox.death

blox.walk needs to be in its own file in the resource pack while blox.death needs to be in the behavior pack in its own file

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:24 AM

#

Actually the blox.walk controller works fine

#

it animates as walking,idle

#

Do i have to erase the blox.death

#

Or remove transition

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 10:26 AM

#

yeah, so if the walk works, then cut the controller.animation.blox.death from the entire file. This controller should be in a new file in the behavior pack animation_controllers

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:26 AM

#

        "controller.animation.blox.death": {
            "initial_state": "default",
            "states": {
                "default": {
                    "transitions": [{
                        "death": "!query.is_alive"
                    }]
                },
                "death": {
                    "on_entry": ["/summon c:blox_death ~~~", "/effect @s invisibility"]
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Because query alive is the same in the behavior entity

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:27 AM

#

thorny maple yeah, so if the walk works, then cut the controller.animation.blox.death from th...

Oh

#

behavior pack animation controller?

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 10:27 AM

#

yeah, animation controllers exist in both folders, resource, and behavior

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:28 AM

#

Ye i also noticed it, mostly commands works as behavior not for visual

#

Lemme try

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 10:28 AM

#

resources can only control viewable ingame animations, which are visible, where the behaviors can control things like activating commands & setting variables which isn't something the players would typically see

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:30 AM

#

Does b.e. animation controller the same as rp
I mean like

Format version
animation_controller
"Controller.blox"

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 10:31 AM

#

yea, the controllers are written basically the same, its just animations can't be added to the behavior one, here is a file too (in case it might help) of the files in a behavior pack

📎 piggy_makes_more_pigs.zip

#

I used a pig and it just spawns more pigs on death, as an example

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:31 AM

#

Oh thanks

thorny maple Nov 13, 2022, 10:36 AM

#

good luck with your pack 👍🏽

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 10:41 AM

#

Thank you

#

(but didn't work lmao)

#

I think i know whats lackin now

sacred wing Nov 13, 2022, 11:49 AM

#

Oh yeah i figured it out

#

It must be like this

    "format_version": "1.19.0",
    "minecraft:entity": {
        "description": {
            "identifier": "c:blox",
            "is_summonable": true,
            "is_spawnable": true,
            "is_experimental": true,
            "scripts": {
                "animate": ["death"]
            },
            "animations": {
                "death": "controller.animation.blox.death"
            }

#

And another transition on animation controller

{
    "format_version": "1.10.0",
    "animation_controllers": {
        "controller.animation.blox.death": {
            "initial_state": "default",
            "states": {
                "default": {
                    "transitions": [
                        {
                            "death": "!query.is_alive"
                        }
                    ]
                },
                "death": {
                    "on_entry": [
                        "/say Here we go!",
                        "/summon c:blox_death"
                    ],
                    "transitions": [
                        {
                            "default": "query.is_alive"
                        }
                        ]
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

#

can be ```js
"query.is_alive && query.all_animations_finished"

#Animation controller Death Commands
