[glacial widget]

thanks for letting me know

[amber granite]

Item.nameTag = "idk"

[glacial widget]

also how do i define player cuz i tried with player = world.getallplayers

[tiny fable]

Didn't knew it's that simple, lol

[amber granite]

It is

[tiny fable]

thanks :)

[amber granite]

Uw

[glacial widget]

system.runInterval(() =>{
for(const player of world.getAllPlayers()){
  const inventory = player.getComponent("inventory").container
  const item = inventory.getItem("")
  const rename = item.nameTag("idk")
}
})

here, but someone correct me if am wrong

[amber granite]

Kinda

It s correct

[tiny tartan]

one thing you forgot that you have to setItem after modifying itemStack

[amber granite]

Wait no it s not

nameTag is not a function

[tiny fable]

Implement this and it works great!
A self reminder: I should use ContainerSlot.nameTag = "Something"
Thanks

[glacial widget]

oohhhh

[amber granite]

• nameTag is not a function

[tiny fable]

item.nameTag looks more like a property than function tho..
Thanks for the effort :)

Could someone help me define player

[tiny tartan]

give it param

[glacial widget]

np did it on the fly

[amber granite]

Yes

[glacial widget]

am confused i did

[amber granite]

mute

Function

Instead of mute()

[glacial widget]

?

[amber granite]

Put mute(player)

player is a parameter

In all the three ones

Add player as Parameter in them

[glacial widget]

i tried that but does not seem to work for some reason

[amber granite]

hmm

[tiny fable]

if (r.selection == 0) kick(player)
function kick() {
  ...
}

You've passed a player param but you've never set a reciever in the functions definition

[amber granite]

Yes it must be

function kick(player)
{}

[tiny fable]

did you try adding any checks for player, like, if (!player) return

[glacial widget]

could you go though my code and give me a example

[amber granite]

Brother

Make if (!player) return
Won't make any difference

[tiny tartan]

you just have to do this

[glacial widget]

function kick(player) {
new ModalFormData(player)
.title("Kick Menu")
.textField("", "Reason for Kick")
.dropdown("Pick a member", player.map(player => player.name), 2)
.submitButton("done")
.show(player).then(r =>{
let input = r.formValues[0]

if (input) {
  player.sendMessage(`${player.name} Has kicked a player for ${input}`); 
} else {
  player.sendMessage(`${player.name} Has kicked a player for no reason.`);
}
})  
}

like this right?

[amber granite]

Yes

[tiny tartan]

yup

[amber granite]

That s all

Do the same with main

[glacial widget]

i still get errors

[amber granite]

And warn and the others

[amber granite]

What s the error?

[glacial widget]

i forgot to add the (player) to mute

my bad yall, am being a fofo dumbie

[tiny tartan]

and remove const player = world.getAllPlayer() cuz that will return array

[amber granite]

Yes u should

Put foreEach method

[tiny fable]

world.afterEvents.itemUse.subscribe((i) =>{
  let player = i.source
  const itemStack = i.itemStack
  if (itemStack.typeId == "minecraft:heart_of_the_sea") main(player)
})
const allPlayer = world.getAllPlayers()
// ^ Rename this to avoid confusion
function main(player) {
  const form = new ActionFormData()
  .title("§l§dModration Menu§r")
  .body("                  §l§aby Maxis")
  .button("§lkick")
  .button("§lwarn")
  .button("§lmute")
  .button(`§cExit Menu`);
  form.show(player).then(r => {
    if (r.selection == 0) kick(player)
    if (r.selection == 1) warn(player)
    if (r.selection == 2) mute(player)
})
}

function kick(player) {
  new ModalFormData()
  .title("Kick Menu")
  .textField("", "Reason for Kick")
  .dropdown("Pick a member", allPlayer.map(player => player.name), 2)
  .submitButton("done")
  .show(player).then(r =>{
    let input = r.formValues[0]

    if (input) {
      player.sendMessage(`${player.name} Has kicked a player for ${input}`); 
    } else {
      player.sendMessage(`${player.name} Has kicked a player for no reason.`);
    }
  })  
}

function warn(player) {
  new ModalFormData()
  .title("")
  .textField("", "Reason for warn" )
  .dropdown("Pick a player to warn", allPlayer.map(player => player.name), 2)
  .submitButton("done")
  .show(player).then(r =>{
    let input = r.formValues[0]
  
    if (input) { 
      player.sendMessage(`${player.name} Has warned a player for ${input}`); 
    } else {
      player.sendMessage(`${player.name} Has warned a player for no reason.`);
    }
  })
}

function mute(player) {
new ModalFormData()
.title("")
.textField("", "Reason for mute")
.dropdown("Pick a mute", allPlayer.map(player => player.name), 2)
.submitButton("done")
.show(player).then(r =>{
let input = r.formValues[0]
if (input) { 
  player.sendMessage(`${player.name} Has warned a player for ${input}`); 
} else {
  player.sendMessage(`${player.name} Has warned a player for no reason.`);
}
})
}

[amber granite]

If u won't to iterate through all the players

[tiny fable]

I believe that is used for the dropdown menu

[amber granite]

Wait

Yeah changing player const won't make difference too !

Remove it from the script

Remove :

const player

Unless u need it , rename it

[glacial widget]

does anyone know how to fix?

[glacial widget]

ohhh

[amber granite]

Yeah

It s a problem with ModalForm

[glacial widget]

oh let me look

[amber granite]

First did u apply the changes ?

[glacial widget]

yes

when i debug there are no errors

[turbid oriole]

Hello family. I've learned a lot lately about the Minecraft+Javascript execution flow. It's very strange but interesting.

I didn't know that there were equal events for pre-world modification and post-world modification. Even the callback function argument refers to properties that refer to different things.

I did not imagine that the same structure could refer to two different states of a coordinate. Pre and post.

:3 and very interesting how each flow is associated with each tick. And how a tick function is executed from a local scope and has no lift.

[neat hound]

Anything with a 's' on the end is going to return an array of what is before the 's'. Pay attention to those details.

[grand heart]

is it possible to get itemStack inside a shulker box itemStack??

(shulker box in inventory/not placed)

[knotty plaza]

Nope

[turbid oriole]

I have an anomalous behavior, when I place a block and remove a block periodically for some reason the block that is placed is the one in the position of the one that was removed, in this case ai air. Do you know if it's a bug?

The drop methods are both inside an instantiated object.

[knotty plaza]

If you are using beforeEvents, then the block is gonna be air

Check the permutationBeingPlaced property in that case

[turbid oriole]

I do not mean that. I think the problem is the constructors. I don't know how they carry the information exactly.

[turbid oriole]

It is better to use the afterEvent for that.

I was already able to summarize the anomalous behavior: it places a block in one position but extracts it from another position from which it should not.

But I don't understand exactly why it happens. If you like, I'll give you the code. A small part.

[knotty plaza]

Ok lets check it out

[turbid oriole]

Wait, I'll transcribe it.

class Head {
    constructor(blockGen, blockGrow, direction){
        super(blockGen.location);
        this.blockGenerator = blockGen;
    }
    
    placeBlock(){
        mundo.setBlockType(this.location, this.blockGenerator.typeId);
    }
    
    forward(){
        this.placeBlock();
        this.tail.destroyBlock();
    }
}

Something like that.

To avoid complications, I didn't put the tail and all that.

[knotty plaza]

How are you getting this.location?

Wait, I think I know how

[turbid oriole]

:'v tail has its own position, also head. But head does strange things: it takes the block at the position of the blockGen (block that had the coordinate that was assigned to head) and places it in the place where I should place the block that was.... Wait, I see something.

[turbid oriole]

It is an object with properties x,y,z

[knotty plaza]

Yeah... I'm not understanding well what you are saying, but I might have an idea of whats happening

[turbid oriole]

Wait, I see what blockGen was in the beginning.

Oh, I thought I already saw the error. Confirm if it's true:

When do I run the event after the player place. Block calls the callback function and returns an event element from its arguments, correct? Well, that object has a "block" attribute. No?

I just realized something. It behaves dynamically I think.

[knotty plaza]

Most of the Block class properties are getters

[turbid oriole]

If I call a function that is executed every 2 ticks within the callback, it changes the block values.

[knotty plaza]

They will return the current value every time you call them

[turbid oriole]

Here when creating the object you assigned the e.block, see? Maybe it is the Failure

[turbid oriole]

Oh. I'll do some tests.

I'm back, you were right, the block methods are getters and will give the current state. Bug fixed.

:v How did you duplicate objects to unbind them from the server's hands? XD

While you help me I will see with Object.assign();

[knotty plaza]

Save the values in variables or an object

You can do this```js
const info = {
typeId: block.typeId,
location: block.location,
permutation: block.permutation,
}

[turbid oriole]

TnT I don't want to

I can't create an object from Minecraft classes? How does an object like that look? What default values do you have?

[knotty plaza]

What?

[tiny fable]

Hello guys! another question
is it possible to give items an enchanting glint through scripts?

[knotty plaza]

No, next question

[tiny fable]

alright then

[turbid oriole]

If possible. I know how to do it, I'm better than RedTNT

To execute it I can devise many ways, although the important thing is to know if we can execute commands from the Script, it would be the most comfortable ways.

[tiny fable]

sure

[knotty plaza]

Bruh

Not sure if saving the item in a mcstructure and editing the NBT would work

Not sure if thats a property that can be edited trought NBT

[turbid oriole]

I didn't say that was an option. I didn't even think about it, but I don't doubt it works.

[turbid oriole]

You seem like someone without much engineering experience. You just complicate your head with your ideas. Yes Did you know that there is a command to enchant objects? At least the basic ones, and those that have the enchanting property.

Does anyone know how I can override this behavior? I'll be investigating.

[knotty plaza]

I do know the command but they just wanted the enchanted item glint

And not every item is enchantable

[turbid oriole]

:v you can't do it with a script xD

[knotty plaza]

Thats what I said

[turbid oriole]

Although I think I know an esoteric method.

[drifting cobalt]

guys how to use / on script, i mean like runCommandAsync(`function/a/b/c`)

[turbid oriole]

/

\

[drifting cobalt]

?

\

[turbid oriole]

\/

[drifting cobalt]

okayy thanks

[turbid oriole]

It is a special character for strings in Javascript.

[drifting cobalt]

function\/a\/b\/c

like this?

[turbid oriole]

Mdn Mozilla.

[drifting cobalt]

ok just \

[turbid oriole]

Yes

[turbid oriole]

Yes

[drifting cobalt]

okay thanks

[turbid oriole]

Why do you use ` ? Xd

[knotty plaza]

Just use it like that

Whats the problem?

[drifting cobalt]

[Scripting][error]-Unhandled promise rejection: CommandError: Syntax error: Unexpected "/": at "oad abc:de>>/<<miaw"

[drifting cobalt]

idk error

[knotty plaza]

I get it, try with runCommand('function "a/b/c"')

[turbid oriole]

:b

[drifting cobalt]

same

[turbid oriole]

What is the syntax of the function command? I forgot her.

XD Are you seriously asking for a string?

[drifting cobalt]

nvm

[turbid oriole]

:'3 ❤️

[drifting cobalt]

player.runCommandAsync(`structure load ${selectedStructure}`) what abt this

[knotty plaza]

I think you forgot the coordinates

[turbid oriole]

The code inside the curly braces is evaluated and inserted at the text position.

[turbid oriole]

Abt? About?

[drifting cobalt]

const selectedStructure= [
    "abc:ab/miaw"
]

[turbid oriole]

I spoke well, stupid.

[drifting cobalt]

XD

[turbid oriole]

XD Does the structure command load arrays?

[knotty plaza]

player.runCommandAsync(`structure load ${selectedStructure[0]}`)

[turbid oriole]

That itself had to be corrected.

I'll go solve my linking problem

[drifting cobalt]

not working😭

[knotty plaza]

This does work completely fine for me

[drifting cobalt]

const structures = [
    "abc:ab/miaw0",
    "abc:ab/miaw1",
    "abc:ab/miaw2"
];
selectedStructure = structures[Math.floor(Math.random() * structures.length)];
player.runCommandAsync(`structure load ${selectedStructure[0]} ${block.location.x - 2} ${block.location.y} ${block.location.z - 2} 0_degrees none true true true`);

[knotty plaza]

Try with mystructure: instead of abc:

[drifting cobalt]

I can't, I put the structure in a folder :>

[turbid oriole]

So why did you pass it a string before? Ha ha

[knotty plaza]

Wdym

[drifting cobalt]

nvm idk now its working

thanks guys

[turbid oriole]

The command is wrong, it has a string inside. I doubt that Minecraft commands have a string.

[drifting cobalt]

"${selectedStructure}"

[turbid oriole]

Place this one:

Better wait, I'll check the documentation. To see the command.

[knotty plaza]

This is one I just made

[drifting cobalt]

yes, i forgot the " "

XD

[turbid oriole]

Actually you already placed it.

Oh no.

[turbid oriole]

-_-

[drifting cobalt]

[turbid oriole]

@knotty plaza You're right, I'll have to extract the data from the object: what a shame.

[stiff ginkgo]

how to use .setProperty?

[knotty plaza]

It works like block states

This is from the bee json file```json
"minecraft:entity": {
"description": {
"identifier": "minecraft:bee",
"is_spawnable": true,
"is_summonable": true,
"is_experimental": false,
"properties": {
"minecraft:has_nectar": {
"type": "bool",
"client_sync": true,
"default": "query.had_component_group('has_nectar')"
}
}
}

You have to set the property first

Then you can change it from the script

[stiff ginkgo]

thank but how to use it in script?

like this?

[knotty plaza]

The first parameter is a string

entity.setProperty('key', 1 /* The value */)

[abstract cave]

import { Player, world } from "@minecraft/server";

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe(eventData => {
    const player = eventData.damagingEntity;
    const entity = eventData.hurtEntity;

    if (player.typeId === "minecraft:player") {
        player.runCommand("say hi");
    }

});```
why does this^ give me this error

[Scripting][error]-TypeError: cannot read property 'typeId' of undefined at <anonymous> (main.js:7)

[distant tulip]

const player = eventData.damageSource.damagingEntity

[wary edge]

Didnt i tell you yesterday? DamageSource isnt an entity

[distant tulip]

he is using damagingEntity directly
and that's not a property for the eventData

[wary edge]

Ik, i already told him yesterday

People should really read the docs

[distant tulip]

yeah

[fading sand]

anyone know what this means?:

i just used my addon on my server and after some time the server keeps crashing with this message

[halcyon phoenix]

eventData.damageSource.damagingEntity

you are accessing damagingEntity through damageSource

[abstract cave]

there is no damage source in the code

[wary edge]

:/

You literally had it

And I told you damageSource isnt an entity but an EntityDamageSource

[abstract cave]

this is the updated code

[abstract cave]

I changed the thingy and you're looking at the old code

[wary edge]

Ik...im telling you that damageSource exists

You had it right, but its not an entity its a EntityDamageSource

[abstract cave]

how to I get the player who hit the entity

[wary edge]

Try asking your server hoster?

@abstract cave :/ i already told you

Since it isnt an entity, its a EntityDamageSource. Youll need to get the objects properties

[fading sand]

The addon causes that

Also crashed my singleplayer world..

[wary edge]

Open a post then?

[halcyon phoenix]

check Dms @abstract cave

[abstract cave]

'kay

[nimble schooner]

Why am I unable to import BlockAreaSize?

(from „@minecraft/server“)

[halcyon phoenix]

what is that for?

[nimble schooner]

For blockareas

To test for entities within them

[halcyon phoenix]

can you send me docs? sounds interesting

[nimble schooner]

1. I don‘t have the docs
2. It doesn‘t work that‘s why I‘m asking for help

[somber onyx]

why I have an error in this file

[cold grove]

probably DataView is not available on scripting api

[fast lark]

how can i tp some one in a specific dimension?

[inland merlin]

Does preview some some sorta inventory event?

I'm looking for docs

[nimble schooner]

Why am I unable to import BlockAreaSize from „@minecraft/server“?

[inland merlin]

Block volume? You have link to docs?

Your using

[amber granite]

Yes

[nimble schooner]

Idk, I used it in 1.19-1.20 with no problems but now it throws the error that it can‘t import it from „@minecraft/server“ so maybe they replaced or removed it?

[inland merlin]

Probably changed if it no longer shows valid. I would look at the current docs,

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/scriptapi/minecraft/server/minecraft-server?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

[nimble schooner]

Alright ty

[misty pivot]

is there a similar event like onRandomTick from block custom components? basically i wanna make vanilla crops die randomly when the player isn't near

[wary edge]

No

[misty pivot]

oh so like, it's not possible to do so aswell?

[distant gulch]

Why is is the net module only for BDS ?

[wary edge]

Thats just the restriction they gave

[distant gulch]

Okay ty, you mind if i ask you something else

[wary edge]

Sure

[distant gulch]

i want to manipulate the player properties by using this

    Object.defineProperty(Player, "isStaff", {
        enumerable: true,
        configurable: false,
        writable: true,
        get: function() {
    
        },
        set: function(state) {
    
        }
    });

is this how it works?

(because i want to make my own anti cheat and i need some methods i can call quickly)

[valid ice]

Yeah, you can do that

There's also value(params) for if you want it to be a method and not a property

[distant gulch]

okay nice ty

[valid ice]

I do soomething like this here:

Object.defineProperties(Player.prototype, {
  methodThingy: {
    value(param1, param2) {
      const added = param1 + param2;
      return added;
    }
  },
  propertyThingy: {
    get() { 
      return this.getComponent('equippable').getEquipment('Mainhand');
    },
    set(item) {
      this.getComponent('equippable').setEquipment('Mainhand', item);
      return item;
    }
  }
})```

[distant gulch]

thanks 👍

[valid ice]

and a .d.ts file helps with intellisense on those!

[distant gulch]

alright thanks

[static nebula]

Can someone help me? How do I disable the effect particles here, type true at the end of the mcpe command:

player.addEffect('slow_falling', 300, { amplifier: 2 });

?

[crude ferry]

player.addEffect('slow_falling', 300, { amplifier: 2, showParticles: false });

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/scriptapi/minecraft/server/entityeffectoptions?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

[static nebula]

Oh, thank so much

I'll try

[misty pivot]

can you call another constructor of the same class? like lets say

class test {
    main() {
        if (something) //run secondary
    }
    secondary() {
        ...
    }
}```

[wary edge]

You mean a function? What exactly are you trying to achieve?

[amber granite]

U mean two constuctors ?

[amber granite]

That s impossible

[misty pivot]

ah i see

[amber granite]

What u wanna achieve?

[misty pivot]

i just wanna split up some code to make it visually easier

[amber granite]

class Test {
constructor() {
this.main();
}

main() {
    if (this.something) {
        this.secondary();
    }
}

secondary() {
    // Your secondary initialization logic here
    console.log("Secondary method called");
}

}

// Example usage
let testInstance = new Test();

class Test {
    constructor(param) {
        this.initialize(param);
    }

    initialize(param) {
        if (param === 'main') {
            this.main();
        } else if (param === 'secondary') {
            this.secondary();
        }
    }

    main() {
        console.log("Main method called");
        // Your main initialization logic here
    }

    secondary() {
        console.log("Secondary method called");
        // Your secondary initialization logic here
    }
}

// Example usage
let testInstance1 = new Test('main');       // Calls main method
let testInstance2 = new Test('secondary');  // Calls secondary method

[misty pivot]

im still pretty confused what does this actually mean

[amber granite]

this = the class

super = the class or the parent class , or one level superior element in the prototype chain

[misty pivot]

ohhhh, man in W3Schools all i could read was a bunch of this

[amber granite]

Ok easily

this refer to the object

Like if :

let object = {
J : 5,
B : this.J }

this refer to the object

[misty pivot]

ohh, yeah, i understand now

[amber granite]

• this is defined in the run Time

• u use this instead of object name

Because when u want to make copies of that object

u can't as example put :

let object = {
J : 5,
B = object.J }

When u make new instance of it

The instance inside will looks like this :

let instance = Object.create(object);
/// Instance would look like :
instance= {
J : 5 ,
B = object.J }

Let s say object is now not defined anymore

That will make a huge problem

so use this

To solve it

And this will be replaced internally with the new object name

[misty pivot]

i see, i think i now have a clear understanding of classes and gained 3 iq points

[distant tulip]

"this" can refer to a lot of thinks
you can use it in objects classes functions prototypes (in html you can use it to refer to the window)

[misty pivot]

so this is basically just the object so it doesn't matter if i rename the object it will still adapt

[amber granite]

Yah but sometimes

It has another contexts

[misty pivot]

oh, i thought it was just for classes lmao

[amber granite]

Liek this gets its context from run Time excution

[lethal crystal]

function customization(player) {
  const form = new ActionFormData();
  form.title("@customization.title");
  form.body(
    { translate: "@customization.hair" },
    { text: "/n/n" },
    { translate: "@customization.skin" }
  );
  form.button("@customization.button_1");
  form.button("@customization.button_2");
  form.show(player).then((response) => {
    switch (response.selection) {
      case 0:
        player.runCommandAsync("event entity @s spark:change_hair_back");
        customization(player);
        break;
      case 1:
        player.runCommandAsync("event entity @s spark:change_hair_next");
        customization(player);
        break;
    }
  });
}

Can anybody tell e why my form is not opening and saying that;

[Scripting][error]-TypeError: Incorrect number of arguments to function. Expected 1, received 3    at customization (@NS/test.js:22)
    at <anonymous> (@NS/test.js:9)

[amber granite]

problem with .body()

[distant tulip]

i mostly use it in prototypes
for example in my isCrawling prototype "this" refer to the player

import {Player} from "@minecraft/server"

/**
 * Checks if the player is in a crawling state based on distance between his head location and his feet location.
 * @return {boolean} true if the player is crawling, false otherwise
 */
Player.prototype.isCrawling = function () {
    const distance = this.getHeadLocation().y - this.location.y
    return distance < 0.31 && !this.isSwimming && !this.isGliding && !this.isSleeping;
};

• how to use:
  put the code above in your script.

//return true or false as mentioned in the jsDoc
 if(player.isCrawling()){
  player.sendMessage("Stop crawling like a baby :p")
}

[lethal crystal]

But, seems that nothing is wrong

[amber granite]

Wait a min

[misty pivot]

i see, this is using the player as the object

[misty pivot]

yeah i think the body must only have 1 argument, try putting it in a brace like
.body({your stuff in here})

[amber granite]

[amber granite]

functions has its this too

[misty pivot]

oh, i get what prototype means, it adds stuff to the object

[distant tulip]

class*

[amber granite]

Prototype is just a proprety that all objects share

Like static propreties

Instead of making new propreties every time u create new obje6

[misty pivot]

ah, alright

[amber granite]

Like if three object has

A proprety called :
PI : 3.14

Just put it in the prototype

To make them all share it

Instead of making new copies of it

[misty pivot]

ohhh, i thought it's used to add new things to an object, like if i wanted to add a new method the player

[amber granite]

Yes , but not its real usage

Because when u want to make a class or constuctor function

U must put all properties that can be shared in it

To save ur ram from lacking

[misty pivot]

i see, also is the script speed depended on the ram of the device/host server?

[distant tulip]

huh
how can that cause a memory leak

[amber granite]

I mean not using it

U make many instances of proprety

[distant tulip]

that not really a "memory leak"

[amber granite]

: | , so my brain isn't braining anymore

[amber granite]

But it does that

Really

Using prototype, make ur code more effecient and more optimized

[misty pivot]

memory leak is an object that exists but cant be accessed right?

[distant tulip]

a memory leak is when a function keep adding stuff without any control over it
how can a prototype prevent it?

[amber granite]

That what google and chat gpt said : |

[misty pivot]

but only if you need to like add the exact same thing to a ton of objects?

[amber granite]

No , u can use it in other things too

It used for inheritance

[misty pivot]

oh yeah, forgor about that

anyway, thx y'all for the patience and for the brief lesson

[amber granite]

So , when using prototype, it access that property

From the constuctor function

Instead of making new instances of it for each object

It called prototype chain

[misty pivot]

oh, I understand, it's similar to this

[amber granite]

No

• = •

[misty pivot]

yeah, just hear me out tho

[amber granite]

To make it easier for u

Let s say , we have one iphone chargeur

And all ur family has iphone

Without chargers

So instead of all ur family members buy new chargers

[misty pivot]

OH, Y'ALL SHARE IT

[amber granite]

Yeah

I know my example is not good

But ._. yeah

That what prototype does

[misty pivot]

yeah dw, i got it

dont give me homework tho 😭

[amber granite]

So buying new chargers is expensive

So the money in this situation is ur RAM

And u don't want to spend all ur RAM on new constant propreties that can be shared between all new instances of that object

Xd

I hope u understand that

Because it s too important concept

[misty pivot]

i can see its use but i think for an addon it's not pretty useful since a ton of stuff is already given, but similar to minato's isCrawling that's a way for it to be useful since it's gonna be used a lot

[amber granite]

It s useful

If u make a class as example

Like databases

[misty pivot]

i need to catch up some sleep, in already tweakin

[amber granite]

Kk

[misty pivot]

oh yeah, github

[amber granite]

, goodnight anyways

[distant tulip]

"this" is getting no where

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOlr79NaAtQ

[amber granite]

how programming languages tutorials makers feels when they write :
What is THIS ?

[warm drum]

can script stop game message?

like "Player has joined the game" or "Wolf was slained by zombie" type of message

[distant tulip]

no

[warm drum]

Aww dang

[distant tulip]

use playerBreakBlock event and runCommand function

[valid ice]

Can use JSON UI to hide said messages

[warm drum]

Tutorial?

[valid ice]

Don't have one

Besides maybe like https://wiki.bedrock.dev/json-ui/preserve-title-texts.html

[abstract cave]

import { Player, world } from "@minecraft/server";

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe(eventData => {
    const player = eventData.damageSource.damagingEntity;
    const entity = eventData.hurtEntity;
    const equippable = player?.getComponent("equippable");
    const slot = equippable.getEquipment('Mainhand');

    if (player?.typeId == "minecraft:player", slot?.typeId === "ad:luminite") {
        player.runCommand("say You hit an entity");
    }

});

Anyone know why this doesnt work, it doesnt give any errors

[valid ice]

use &&, not ,

[nimble schooner]

What did they do to world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe?

How to use it now?

[distant tulip]

it is the same
just not stable

[nimble schooner]

Whats the newest manifest version?

Or in which version can I use it without having a syntax error

1.12.0-beta

[nimble schooner]

Ty

Wow, my way too big annoying pack which I didn’t update since 2023 finally works again

Tysm

Only problem is BlockAreaSize

[distant tulip]

it is blockVolume now

[nimble schooner]

.getEntities({
        excludeTypes: ["minecraft:villager", "minecraft:player"],
        volume: new BlockAreaSize(1800, 400, 1800),
        location: {
            x: 1600,
            y: -64,
            z: 1600
        }
    }) ```

So I only have to change the name

Do I still have to import it or is it built in already?

[distant tulip]

no
how dose BlockAreaSize work
blockVolume need tow corners of the volume

[nimble schooner]

uhhh

so like from -400, -400 to 400, 400?

How to do that if it isnt like blockareasize

[distant tulip]

vector3
new BlockVolume(from,to)

[nimble schooner]

vector3 is with y, right?

[distant tulip]

yeah

what dose BlockAreaSizedo in your code

was doing*

[nimble schooner]

so like new BlockVolume({x: -400, y: -64, z: -400}, {x: 400…?

[nimble schooner]

Testing for entities in an area and executing somthing as them

[distant tulip]

ah turns out volume only need vector3

so this should work

.getEntities({
        excludeTypes: ["minecraft:villager", "minecraft:player"],
        volume: {x:1800, y:400, z:1800},
        location: {
            x: 1600,
            y: -64,
            z: 1600
        }
    }) ```

[nimble schooner]

Oh lol

Alright

So they made it just simpler

Actually good change xD

Tysm for help <3

[knotty plaza]

I would say, there is no way a block is called just "water"

And you can't really interact with water

[abstract cave]

sorry

[knotty plaza]

Try getting the block from a raycast

[abstract cave]

it doesnt give errors or work in general

[amber granite]

Agree

[abstract cave]

raycast?

[wary edge]

You need the liquid clipped component for your item

[abstract cave]

still doesnt work either way

i tried

[amber granite]

Replace , with &&

[wary edge]

Great catch kiro

Maybe that's why it wasn't working for you because I've used lliquid clipped and it works

[amber granite]

Thx

[abstract cave]

oh, ill try

[amber granite]

Try the thing first

[knotty plaza]

dimension.getBlockFromRay()

[abstract cave]

i did, still nothing

[amber granite]

Yeah + player is not defined

U must extract it from event

eventData

[abstract cave]

im confused here

[amber granite]

?

[abstract cave]

i should get the player from the evnentData and then use it to do....?

[amber granite]

Just add a variable

Called player

let player = eventData.source

• change ur if statement

With this one :

[knotty plaza]

Now everything is defined```js
world.afterEvents.itemUseOn.subscribe(({ source: player, block, itemStack: item }) => {
});

[amber granite]

if ( item?.typeId === "su:fish_net" && block?.typeId === "minecraft:water" )

[abstract cave]

umm, isnt this what mine was like

[amber granite]

No

U put , instead of &&

[abstract cave]

ok

[amber granite]

• type id

Must start with

minecraft:water

[abstract cave]

ok

[remote oyster]

Pretty certain that is optional. If "minecraft" is not there then it's applied automatically to the string.

[amber granite]

Sure ?

[remote oyster]

Might be wrong, but I'm pretty certain.

[amber granite]

I don't think so

Because it s ===

[abstract cave]

better safe than sorry

[amber granite]

And the type id

[remote oyster]

import { world } from '@minecraft/server';

world.afterEvents.itemUseOn.subscribe(({ block, itemStack: item, source: player }) => {
    if (item?.typeId === "su:fish_net" && block?.typeId === "water" && player) {
        player.runCommand("say you placed a block");
    }
});

[amber granite]

Will start with the Minecraft:

[amber granite]

No

It s not automatical

U must add minecraft at first

import { world } from '@minecraft/server';

world.afterEvents.itemUseOn.subscribe(({ block, itemStack: item, source: player }) => {
    if (item?.typeId === "su:fish_net" && block?.typeId === "minecraft:water" && player) {
        player.runCommand("say you placed a block");
    }
});

[knotty plaza]

world.afterEvents.itemUseOn.subscribe(({ source: player, itemStack: item }) => {
  const ray = player.dimension.getBlockFromRay(player.getHeadLocation(), player.getViewDirection(), {
    includeLiquidBlocks: true,
    includePassableBlocks: true,
    maxDistance: 6
  });
  if (!ray) return;
  
  if (item?.typeId === "su:fish_net" && ray.block?.typeId === "minecraft:water") {
    // Your code
  }
});

[amber granite]

Bro is surely confused rn 💀

[knotty plaza]

Fr

[abstract cave]

also, it didnt work

[amber granite]

Any one ?

[abstract cave]

Does Block.getTags() method work? I've always had problems with this method (with custom blocks) as it always returns only one tag.

[amber granite]

Is Block supposed to have more than 1 tag ?

How u use it ?

I mean the way u implemented it in ur script

[abstract cave]

    "format_version": "1.20.80",
    "minecraft:item": {
        "description": {
            "identifier": "su:fish_net",
            "menu_category": {
                "category": "items"
            }
        },
        "components": {
            "minecraft:icon": "su_fish_net",
            "minecraft:max_stack_size": 16,
            "minecraft:liquid_clipped": {
                "value": true
            }
        }
    }
}```

[distant tulip]

there is component that allow your item to interact with blocks
yo should add it
idk it name

[abstract cave]

isnt on_use getting depriciated

[abstract cave]

there is none specifically for blocks

only block placer and entity placer

[distant tulip]

minecraft:on_use_on?

[knotty plaza]

You can get the event to fire with any item if you use the beforeEvent

[abstract cave]

isnt on_use getting removed

[distant tulip]

itemUseOn? no

[knotty plaza]

Yes, I do use it

[amber granite]

Try this

[abstract cave]

isnt on_use getting removed

[distant tulip]

🤷‍♂️ i do too
don't work with sticks and work with brush

[proper forum]

Yes. The idea is to have multiple tags, but for some reason for the script the block only has one tag (even Block.hasTag doesn't work)
For example:

/**
 * 
 * @param {Block|ItemStack|Entity} source 
 * @param {string} key 
 */
export function getTagData(source, key) {
    console.warn(source.getTags())
    console.warn(source.hasTag("test"))
    for (let tag of source.getTags())
        if (tag.startsWith(key + ":")) return tag.replace(key + ":", "");
    return undefined;
}

Block components (shortened):

"components": {
  "tag:test": {},
  "tag:gravel": {}
}

getTagData searches the tags for a match and returns the rest of it. But with the example block, getTags() only returns "gravel" and the hasTag returns false

[amber granite]

If it didn't work then lower ghe format_version

[remote oyster]

Looks like you might be correct. The typeId for Items doesn't require it, but it looks to be necessary for blocks.

[amber granite]

Both

Because typeId gives u string

[remote oyster]

The namespace for items is assumed to be "minecraft" by default in the documentation unless otherwise specified.

[amber granite]

if u use
=== To check if id match or not

U must include it

[abstract cave]

:/ i dont want to use HCF tho, since its getting removed

[woven loom]

?

[distant tulip]

not true
=== is for type check

[remote oyster]

I'm not referring to strict type matching. I'm speaking about the return for items.typeId in general. Since they are using a custom namespace it's necessary to pass it. Otherwise, they could leave it out and the return on that item would be the same result.

[amber granite]

I mean when u use

Or

[abstract cave]

[Item][error]-minecraft:on_use_on has been deprecated and is not available in json format 1.20.70

[amber granite]

So Pokémon add-on

[tacit sigil]

Yes

[amber granite]

Including models , animation, etc... ?

[tacit sigil]

Can I see some of your models

[amber granite]

I don't make models ._.

how do you decrement a stack?

yknow, - 1 instead of adding +1 to the stack? i ask this because when attempting to do -1 to .amount it gets an error saying it must between 1-255. so is subtracting literally impossible

[open urchin]

if (stack.amount > 1) stack.amount--;
else stack = undefined;

[burnt remnant]

using -- does nothing for me

not even an error

const chestInventory = blockAbove.getComponent("minecraft:inventory").container;

const itemInFirstSlot = chestInventory.getItem(0);

itemInFirstSlot.amount--;

ive tried different variations too,

itemInFirstSlot.amount--

itemInFirstSlot.amount - 1

itemInFirstSlot.amount = itemInFirstSlot.amount - 1

nothing

[burnt remnant]

it better not be because i did const instead of let

[distant tulip]

when you get the item from a container the game clone it
meaning any change wont apply to the original item directly
you need to set the item to that slot

[burnt remnant]

how would i do that?

[distant tulip]

chestInventory.setItem(itemInFirstSlot ,0);

after the change made

[turbid oriole]

Can Minecraft net be used from Android?

[burnt remnant]

if (itemInFirstSlot.typeId === blockBehindW.typeId && block.permutation.getState("minecraft:cardinal_direction") === "west" && northblock.typeId === "rel:steam_engine_powered" && northblock.permutation.getState("minecraft:cardinal_direction") === "north" && southblock.typeId === "rel:steam_engine_powered" && southblock.permutation.getState("minecraft:cardinal_direction") === "south")
{
itemInFirstSlot.amount = itemInFirstSlot.amount--;
chestInventory.setItem(itemInFirstSlot ,0);
if (blockInFrontW) {
block.dimension.getBlock(blockInFrontLocationWest).setType(blockBehindW.typeId);
}
}

its still not working and setting the item managed to break the other if statement.

[distant tulip]

what the error you are getting

[burnt remnant]

im not getting an error, nothing is happening

and i know that first if statement is being activated and doing fine

so i restarted minecraft and now im getting an error?? weird?

75 is

chestInventory.setItem(itemInFirstSlot ,0);

[distant tulip]

try
chestInventory.setItem(0,itemInFirstSlot);

[burnt remnant]

Okay no error

[burnt remnant]

but nothing happens

tried restarting the game too

instead of

itemInFirstSlot.amount = itemInFirstSlot.amount--

im just going to try

itemInFirstSlot.amount--

[distant tulip]

chatSend it self is not stable

[burnt remnant]

oh my god it worked

[distant tulip]

good

[burnt remnant]

im gonna cry

[distant tulip]

🗿

[hushed ravine]

Oh, alright

[burnt remnant]

you helped me reduced my code that had 2200 lines down to now 133 lines

[distant tulip]

💀

when

[burnt remnant]

i use to use setItem, so if the stack was 62, id setItem to 61, if it was 61 id setItem to 60. so i did that 64 times, times another 8 times , now i can just use subtraction

and every setItem i did was 4 lines long

[distant tulip]

bruh

[burnt remnant]

hi everyone me again 😂 so i noticed beforeEvents.itemUse doesnt work on my item thats in the offhand, is there a way to get it to work for offhand items or no?

[steep hamlet]

is it possible to make blocks that use "minecraft:custom_components" stop acting like they have interactable component?

[woven loom]

anyone has the query parser ?

[steep hamlet]

whar

[woven loom]

@a[...]

[distant tulip]

"acting like they have intractable component"?

[steep hamlet]

you can right click them and the hand swings

even tho i have nothing interact related in their code

[distant tulip]

whats in your custom component

[distant tulip]

the block json

[distant tulip]

i don't see why it would be intractable

[distant tulip]

you mean selectors parser?

[woven loom]

ye

[distant tulip]

i think i do
but idk if this is what are you looking for
used it in an old world to clear entities

function parseSelectors(command) {
    const selectorVariablePattern = /@([aeprs]|initiator)/;
    const selectorArgumentsPattern = /\[([^\]]+)\]/;
    let result = {
        target: null,
        arguments: {}
    };
    const variableMatch = command.match(selectorVariablePattern);
    if (variableMatch) result.target = variableMatch[1];
        else return result;
    const argumentsMatch = command.match(selectorArgumentsPattern);
    if (argumentsMatch) {
        const argumentsString = argumentsMatch[1];
        const argumentsArray = argumentsString.split(',');
        argumentsArray.forEach(arg => {
            const [key, value] = arg.split('=');
            result.arguments[key.trim()] = value.trim();
        });
    }
    return result;
}

it doesn't check if the arguments are valid

[woven loom]

it should map to script query tho

[distant tulip]

yeah
i didn't count for complex arguments like hasItem

[woven loom]

? i mean to say EntityQueryOption

[distant tulip]

oh
yeah that is better then what i have

[sage portal]

What's the native way to give someone an item?

[shy leaf]

getting inventory component, adding new ItemStack and then addItem

thats what i did at least

[grave nebula]

some dude was talkin bout attachable

tf is an attachable

[amber granite]

!

[round bone]

Player.getComponent("container").container.addItem(itemStack: ItemStack);

[thorn flicker]

the onTick custom component wont activate unless you place the block yourself?

I have a generated block and its not ticking unless I place it

this is lame

[distant tulip]

3D model that you "attach" to items to make them render 3D in third person camera

[thorn flicker]

randomTick will do for now ig

[cold grove]

❌

[round bone]

?

it's right?

[last latch]

bro wtf it is correct

[glacial widget]

world.afterEvents.entitySpawn.subscribe((ev) =>{
  let item = ev.entity
  if(item.typeId !== "minecraft:item") return
  const itemStack = item.getComponent("item").itemStack
  item.nameTag = `§5${itemStack.amount}x§d ${getEntitysItemName(item)}`;
});

does anyone know how to update the amount?

[glacial widget]

lol

[valid ice]

Can't; item component for entities is read-only

[still rampart]

const itemStack = new ItemStack("minecraft:diamond")
player.getComponent("inventory").container.addItem(itemStack);

[glacial widget]

other people have done it, for when the item stacks the amount shows?

[valid ice]

well yeah, but you can't edit the item once it is dropped in the world

[glacial widget]

how can i edit when they stack?

[valid ice]

Good question

[neat hound]

Maybe you can drop another right there too

[round bone]

i just gave him a documentation snippet xd

[glossy wasp]

It sayd its at 99999

[abstract cave]

world.afterEvents.itemUseOn.subscribe(eventData => {
    const block = eventData.block;
    const item = eventData.itemStack;
    const player = eventData.source

    if (item?.typeId === "su:fish_net" && block?.typeId === "minecraft:water") {
        player.runCommand("say you placed a block");
    }
});

i want to make an item place a block, when placed on water

does this look good

beacuse it doesnt work

also the player.runCommand is just a placeholder

[open urchin]

does the item have the liquid clipped component?

[wary edge]

Like I told you yesterday?

[abstract cave]

yes

                "value": true
            }```

[open urchin]

unless the player interact with block event detects it, idk

[abstract cave]

wdym

[open urchin]

There's world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithBlock in beta versions of @minecraft/server that might trigger

[thorn ocean]

Do you guys have any good idea on storing info to create a large database? I was thinking of using dynamicProperties or tags.

[slim spear]

if it's one or the other, def properties

[amber granite]

As minato said , databases are just lot of dynamic propreties

[thorn ocean]

How many can be used tho?

[woven loom]

like?

[amber granite]

How many XD

[thorn ocean]

Like 100? On one entity anyway.

[amber granite]

Databases uses world instead of entities

Use DynamicPropreties

Because they are not limited

[thorn ocean]

Wait really? That's great! I thought they were. Thanks!

[amber granite]

They are limited, by 32767 characters

But u can divide them into chunks

By adding numbers to that dynamic proprety id

And that will make then unlimited

And if u can get them too, by for loop

[woven loom]

You can have as many keys as possible combinations of 32k bytes.

[thorn ocean]

Alright then. Thanks!

[woven loom]

you sure? combinations exists

[amber granite]

Yeah , i used it

[thorn ocean]

Tho another question about usuing dynamic properties is retrieving names. Since stringifying the name with other info is hard to retrieve due to which characters/ letters the name might have.

[amber granite]

U can make a json file

I mean u can make object of names

Then stringify it using JSON.stringify

Or stingified array

[thorn ocean]

So turn the string into an object?

[amber granite]

Yes

Use an array for that

If u gonna deal with only names

Or Set object

[thorn ocean]

Can you show me a small example? I don't think I've delt into this side of JS yet lol.

[amber granite]

Yes ofx

[amber granite]

Any side exactly?

[young mango]

how can i define an entities current health and max health?

[amber granite]

Sorry for my dumb question

I mean u want to make it with Set object?

[thorn ocean]

Oh! Yes. And no prob. Thanks for clarifying lol.

[amber granite]

• just a note :
  Set object is just like an array, but the special thing about it , u can duplicate an element in it twice as example :
  U can do that with array :[ "Jam" , "Jam" , "kim" ]
  With set object :
  // Jam only appears once
  [ "Jam" , "kim" ]

• it s not exactly an array , u can search for an item by index ( i just gave u an example to clarify what set is )

[thorn ocean]

So like a Map()?

[amber granite]

Not exactly

It just an object that make an element never be added more than once

• yeah it supports types unlike objects

[thorn ocean]

So I can create a Set. Then Stringify it?

[amber granite]

Yes

import { world } from '@minecraft/server';

// Step 1: Create a Set and add names to it
const Names = new Set();
Names.add("Steve");
Names.add("Alex");
Names.add("Herobrine");
let playersNames = JSON.stingify(Array.from(Names))
world.setDynamicProprety("id" ,playersNames)

[thorn ocean]

Interesting. How do I unstringify it after that?

[amber granite]

JSON.parse()

//step 2 : getDP and put it again in the set
const Names = new Set (JSON.parse(world.getDynamicProprety("id")))

[thorn ocean]

Thanks!

[amber granite]

Uw

[thorn ocean]

Just experimented a little with what you told me and WOW. That is powerful.

[amber granite]

What is powerful exactly XD ?

[thorn ocean]

Changing values into string and converting them back into their original values. I never knew that was possible lol.

[amber granite]

Everything is possible

As long as u believe

[thorn ocean]

LOL

[amber granite]

Unless u are an atheist that s another story XD

Anyways

[cold grove]

I believe in bibble

[amber granite]

;-;

[abstract cave]

can anyone help, im trying to get my item to place a block using scripts

and so far what ive done aint working

[stiff ginkgo]

how to detect when player get hit? like when player get hit that player will run command

[wary edge]

entityHurt event

[turbid oriole]

Hello.

[turbid oriole]

-_- script eval? Where in the documentation does it mention that?

Can someone explain to me the difference between "item" events? Is it true that you cannot detect a click on the screen or at least one block?

[unique dragon]

microsoft docs i think

[turbid oriole]

Please re-read my question and answer again.

[unique dragon]

?

no

[turbid oriole]

That's a lie. Your beliefs are not part of reality.

XD

[unique dragon]

you have custom components, you can detect when a player right click on an item

or on a block

[turbid oriole]

Custom components? I had not thought of it. I will review what is granted in addition to what we already have.

[granite badger]

They haven't documented that in mslearn, but here's some infomation about it https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/features/script-eval.html

[turbid oriole]

I'll see.

[turbid oriole]

A framework?

[modest oasis]

guys how can I get player coordinate and store it like you can /back to your previous postion before teleporting to other location or before die

nvm seems its too complex for me as a beginner

[verbal yew]

is it possible to show a color in a chest ui to a specific player

@modest oasis

[misty pivot]

idk why this isn't working and since i dont really have time to wait for 20 minutes what i did is set it to night and sleep the "show days played" seem to change to day 1 but the script still isn't running

function day() {
    if (!world?.getDynamicProperty("day")) {
        return 10;
    }else return world?.getDynamicProperty("day");
}
if (world.getDay() >= day() && !world?.getDynamicProperty("day")) {
    world.setDynamicProperty("start", true)
}```

i know it says 10 there but i adjusted it to run on day 1 using the day dynamic property

[sharp elbow]

When is this snippet running? And where you setting the "day" dynamic property?

Your logic could be changed some to show your intent better too—your negation ! will cast the result of getDynamicProperty to a boolean, so while a value of undefined will trigger it, so will 0. Better to compare it explicitly, like world.getDynamicProperty("day") == undefined.

[misty pivot]

it's running on an interval, i set the day using a modalform

the modal form works fine since it tells me the value after the enter it

[misty pivot]

it still didn't work for some reason, there isn't an error aswell

[grand heart]

player.setDynamicProperty("save_location", player.location);

replace set with getto get

and you should also save the dimension as well

[abstract cave]

cuz i need it to place block on water

[distant tulip]

const replaceBlocks = [
  'minecraft:air',
  'minecraft:water',
  'minecraft:lava',
]
world.afterEvents.itemUse.subscribe((event) => {
  const {source, itemStack} = event
  if(itemStack.typeId !== 'item:id') return
  const blockInView = source.getBlockFromViewDirection({maxDistance:4.5})
  if(!blockInView) return
  const {block: blc, face} = blockInView
  const block = getAdjacentBlock(face,blc)
  if(!replaceBlocks.includes(block.typeId)) return
  block.setType('block:id')
  //use setPermutation if you want specific properties
  if(block.typeId == 'minecraft:water') block.isWaterlogged = true
})

function getAdjacentBlock(face,block) {
  switch(face){
    case"Down" : return block.below();
    case"Up"   : return block.above();
    case"East" : return block.west();
    case"North": return block.south();
    case"South": return block.north();
    case"West" : return block.east();
  }
}

[amber granite]

@misty pivot because there are SyntaxErrors

[misty pivot]

lemme check real quick

[amber granite]

• world get Day()

...

Ticks

Nvm

The last sentence is wrong

[misty pivot]

oh

[amber granite]

Returns number - The current day, determined by the world time divided by the number of ticks per day. New worlds start at day 0.

[distant tulip]

for Ticks use system.currentTick

[misty pivot]

so that means sleeping doesn't count as a day?

[distant tulip]

it dose

i don't think days are calculated by currentTick

[amber granite]

function day() {
    if (!world?.getDynamicProperty("day")) {
        return 10;
    } else return world?.getDynamicProperty("day");
if (world.getDay() >= day() && !world?.getDynamicProperty("day")) {
    world.setDynamicProperty("start", true)
}```

[distant tulip]

why do you need to store that

[misty pivot]

store what?

oh, the day property is the starting day, like the day an event starts

[distant tulip]

ah

why the " return 10"

[misty pivot]

default value

if day property isn't set then it defaults to 10

[distant tulip]

i know
i meant why 10

[misty pivot]

oh, it's a test basically

[amber granite]

What u wanna do with the second if statement?

Yeah i see the problem now

Rhe second if statement will never work

[misty pivot]

the second if statement basically if it's pass the day property/default day then it will start an event or in this case make a property named start

[amber granite]

Yeah it will never work

I ll fix it for u

[distant tulip]

you are not setting the day to the dp

[misty pivot]

i tested both with and without a day dp set, both didn't really start the event

[amber granite]

function day() {

if (world.getDay() >= day() && !world?.getDynamicProperty("day")) world.setDynamicProperty("start", true)

    if (!world?.getDynamicProperty("day")) {
        return 10;
    } else return world?.getDynamicProperty("day");
}```

[misty pivot]

ah so place the whole if statement in the function

[amber granite]

Yes

[misty pivot]

but why wouldn't it run the first place earlier?

[amber granite]

Because

The first if statement

The includes return

Block the the second if statement

So the code after return will never work

[misty pivot]

oh return is like a break

[amber granite]

Yes

[misty pivot]

i didn't knew that

thanks very much

[amber granite]

Uw

[misty pivot]

hm, what's strange is it didn't work still, and i tested yes what's being shown in "show days played" option in game is the same value as world.getDay()

how about i try a ternary operator?

[distant tulip]

can you tell what are you trying to do?

[misty pivot]

maybe like

if (world.getDay() >= world?.getDynamicProperty("day") != undefined ? world?.getDynamicProperty("day") : 10) {
    world.setDynamicProperty("start", true)
}```

kinda like this

[amber granite]

Wth

What did u did

@misty pivot what are u trying to do first ?

[misty pivot]

so i used the ternary operator to see if day is defined, if so it will use value of they else it'll use default of 10

[amber granite]

So u put an if statement inside an if statement

XD

[misty pivot]

yes

[amber granite]

U just make the code bigger for no reason

[misty pivot]

well the function version wasn't working

hold up i got an idea

[amber granite]

Did it work now ,?

[misty pivot]

well i didn't test yet but i'll try right now

nope it didn't

[amber granite]

Ur logic is kinda bad

[amber granite]

...

Tell me what u wanna do

Or send me full script

[misty pivot]

well that is basically the whole script, i just put that into a system.runInterval

[amber granite]

What about the imports ?

[amber granite]

Show me

[misty pivot]

oh yeah, i did import world and system

[amber granite]

Show me what u did

I need to see that

[misty pivot]

this is the first iteration

import { world, system } "@minecraft/server";

const runner = system.runInterval(() => {
    function day() {
        if (world?.getDynamicProperty("day") == undefined) {
            return 10;
        }else return world?.getDynamicProperty("day");
    }
    if (world.getDay() >= Number(day()) && !world?.getDynamicProperty("start")) {
        world.setDynamicProperty("start", true)
    }
})```

[amber granite]

But

U didn't even trigger the function

[remote oyster]

import { world, system } from "@minecraft/server";

const runner = system.runInterval(() => {
    const dayValue = world.getDynamicProperty("day") || 10;

    if (world.getDay() >= Number(dayValue) && !world.getDynamicProperty("start")) {
        world.setDynamicProperty("start", true);
        console.warn("Dynamic Property, start, has been set to true.");
    }
});

[amber granite]

import { world, system } "@minecraft/server";

const runner = system.runInterval(() => {
function day() {
if (world.getDay() >= day() && (!world?.getDynamicProperty("day"))) world.setDynamicProperty("start", true)
    if (!world?.getDynamicProperty("day")) {
        return 10;
    } else return world?.getDynamicProperty("day");
}
world.sendMessage(`day : ${day()}`)
console.log(day())
},1)```

@misty pivot

[misty pivot]

i'll try it out

[amber granite]

U just put that

And u think it will work ?

Without outputing anything?

[misty pivot]

ah, it's a function right, it's declared but not used earlier

[amber granite]

Yes

[remote oyster]

Just eliminate the function. Doesn't appear to be necessary.

[amber granite]

• u need to set the dynamic proprety also

[amber granite]

Agree

[nimble schooner]

Why does player.selectedSlot not return a valid number anymore and how to fix it?

[amber granite]

get

[granite badger]

player.selectedSlotIndex

[abstract cave]

this is confusing

[remote oyster]

// List of block types that will be replaced when interacted with
const replaceBlocks = [
  'minecraft:air',
  'minecraft:water',
  'minecraft:lava',
]

// Subscribe to the 'itemUse' event that occurs after item usage in the world
world.afterEvents.itemUse.subscribe((event) => {
  const { source, itemStack } = event;

  // Check if the item used matches a specific item ID
  if (itemStack.typeId !== 'item:id') return;

  // Get the block directly in front of the player's view within a maximum distance of 4.5 blocks
  const blockInView = source.getBlockFromViewDirection({ maxDistance: 4.5 });
  if (!blockInView) return;

  // Destructure the block and its facing direction ('face')
  const { block: blc, face } = blockInView;

  // Get the adjacent block based on the face direction
  const block = getAdjacentBlock(face, blc);
  if (!replaceBlocks.includes(block.typeId)) return;

  // Replace the current block with a new block type
  block.setType('block:id');

  // Set specific properties for certain block types
  if (block.typeId == 'minecraft:water') {
    block.isWaterlogged = true;
  }
});

// Function to get the adjacent block based on the given face direction
function getAdjacentBlock(face, block) {
  switch (face) {
    case "Down": return block.below();   // Below the current block
    case "Up": return block.above();     // Above the current block
    case "East": return block.west();    // West of the current block (facing East)
    case "North": return block.south();  // South of the current block (facing North)
    case "South": return block.north();  // North of the current block (facing South)
    case "West": return block.east();    // East of the current block (facing West)
  }
}

Added comments to explain what the code does as you read along from top to bottom. Should clear it up some.

[abstract cave]

thanks so much

been trying to figure it out

also, why does it need to check adjacent blocks @distant tulip

[remote oyster]

A question for Minato.

[hazy nebula]

for (const entity of world.getEntities()) it responds with "not a function" what is the problem?

[nimble schooner]

Ty

[amber granite]

Because world dosen't has getEntities

As function

[stiff ginkgo]

can js apply component_group?

[tiny fable]

Is there no way to read files in the script?

[neat hound]

when you encounter a problem like this, it would help to look at the class again and see what methods are available. Perhaps dive into some of the methods to find which one has getEntities.... though in this case it is not obvious... use getDimension() to get to Dimension Class https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server_1_12_0_beta.World.html

[distant tulip]

@hazy nebula

const allDimensions = [ 'overworld', 'nether', 'the_end' ];
const dimensions = allDimensions.map(dimension => world.getDimension(dimension));
const entities = dimensions.flatMap(dimension => dimension.getEntities());

for(const entity of entities) {
    //code
}

[remote oyster]

Nice illustration lol.

[distant tulip]

thanks lol

[hazy nebula]

Thask everyone but i had change for (const entity of world.getEntities()) to const entity = world.getEntities()) and it work!

[amber granite]

Ahhhh

Hhh

💀

We told u world.getEntities()
Dosen't exist

[neat hound]

In what world does that work

[hazy nebula]

no, I just took it out of the loop and it actually worked

[amber granite]

Impossible

getEntities dosen't exist!!!!

[neat hound]

So did you actually pick up any entities.... can you do a loop on them and sendMessage and prove it

[amber granite]

It s undefined

Or null ofc

[neat hound]

just a simple (from your code) entity.forEach(e => world.sendMessage(${e.typeId})) and a screenshot

[hazy nebula]

Like that

[amber granite]

Ok can u hover ur cursor

On getEntities

And u will see it has no description

It will show u
(any)

Only
world.getEntity()

[granite badger]

Is typings installed on their pc

[amber granite]

Exist

[amber granite]

Good question ☠️

[neat hound]

he is mistaken, he used dimension....

[hazy nebula]

What

I dont understand

[amber granite]

Oh

[amber granite]

I see

[amber granite]

Nvm

My bad

[neat hound]

LOL.. that was funny.. the scripters defense brigade

[distant tulip]

scripters questioning their knowledge

[neat hound]

This is how inner universes collapse, programmer breathe logic...

[steep hamlet]

possible to get collision box?

[wary edge]

No

[amber granite]

No

[neat hound]

You are like a gopher... pop up with a simple answer...

Smokey

[pale terrace]

xd

[pale terrace]

There is no clearer answer than that.

[amber granite]

Agree

But u can make a list with hit boxes

I mean hitboxes lists

[pale terrace]

And how do you verify that it is the hitbox of the entity?

What I do is make a predefined hitbox in the code in those situations

with an average size

[wary edge]

Simply create a map of ids to hitbox

[amber granite]

Yes

If u know how to deal with node js

U can make everything automated

And make it get the hit box of ab entity

And put it in object which :
{entityid : hitboxValue
}

[sage sparrow]

hi there, what is the limit for saving dynamic properties? if there is any that I should concern about? or how do I set the threshold? [Scripting] 13.83 MB of dynamic properties were saved during the last minute, exceeding the 10 MB threshold.

[amber granite]

No limit

The only limit is ur device's storage

[pale terrace]

Agree

[amber granite]

.

[amber granite]

I have question

[runic crypt]

guys can anyone help me ?

[wary edge]

With?

[runic crypt]

bounty system

how do i make one ?

like an addon/script

[wary edge]

Did you search in #1067535382285135923 in case someoen else had the same quetsion? We get this a lot as far as I know

[runic crypt]

none of them exactly fit my question :(

[neat hound]

You gotta work out that logic yourself or discord search to see if someone added one to resources (probably not)

[runic crypt]

i want it so that players can execute a command lime /function bounty and a menu pops up prompting them to select the person and the amount

[runic crypt]

there isn't anything similar to it

[neat hound]

so that is Chat Commands and JsonUI

[runic crypt]

yea

can you help ?

[neat hound]

I could, but then I'd have to learn Json UI forms.... (plenty do them on here, so find one) and I am not going to teach. I have a feeling you are not familiar with scripting

[runic crypt]

im a little bit familiar

[neat hound]

Well good time to get deeper into it. Figure out how to make a simple script to say something every 5 minutes or tell a player when he hits another player and you are halfway there.... chat commands are easy

[runic crypt]

ill try thanks for the help :)
