Script API General

[amber granite]

Why didn't u use of instead

[grand heart]

i need to

let item = itemStack.clone();
item.nameTag = "New name";
smth.setItem(item)

[amber granite]

Because it s an array

And not an object

[subtle cove]

Array would need u to loop

Why not just use {}

[amber granite]

Oh it s an object

[subtle cove]

Was it a ContainerSlot?

[grand heart]

hmmm no not actually it's just a container

[subtle cove]

ctnr.setItem(slotIndex, item)

[grand heart]

ah yes right

but this tho?

it just doesn't upate if i just assign

[subtle cove]

Cus it's not ContainerSlot, it's just ItemStack

Assigning on ItemStack would need the cntnr.setItem(slotIndex, itemStack)

[grand heart]

ohhh cool, now i get to save bunch of lines of code thanks!

[subtle cove]

//ContainerSlot
const cSlot = cntr.getSlot(slotIndex)
if (cSlot.hasItem()) {
    cSlot.amount += 2 //item changed
    cSlot.nameTag = cSlot.typeId //item changed
    //no need for setItem
    //changing component stuff like enchantments would be different 
    const item = cSlot.getItem()
    const ench = Item.getComponent("enchantable") 
    ench.addEnchantment({ type: new EnchantmentType("mending"), level: 1})
    cSlot.setItem(item)//item changed
} ``````js
//ItemStack
let slotIndex = 16
const item = cntnr.getItem(slotIndex)
if (item) {
    item.nameTag = item.typeId
    item.amount *= 3
    const ench = Item.getComponent("enchantable") 
    ench.addEnchantment({ type: new EnchantmentType("mending"), level: 1})
    cntnr.setItem(slotIndex, item) //item changed
} ```

[naive tinsel]

whats difference in Save to memory and save to disk in structure blocks

and do i need to use save to disk to use the structure manager?

[valid ice]

Disk is temporary for that world session, if I recall correctly.

Memory saves to the world DB

[naive tinsel]

ok

thanks

[glacial widget]

tried still getting the error

[amber granite]

._what ?

[devout dune]

@wary edge sorry i meant to ask this #1070606638525980753 message
here. I am trying to do it with scripts. or maybe an Effect?

[wary edge]

TP it in place?

[amber granite]

With runInterval?

[devout dune]

good idea

[misty pivot]

i know damage is read only in entity hurt event but is it possible to edit it? i was thinking something like damage = 0

[wary edge]

No

[misty pivot]

alright, thanks

well is there another way where i can half the damage dealt to the player instead of healing/giving back half the health back?

[devout dune]

Hey what could i do for size? of an entity.
I noticed entity.setRotation() in the docs, but couldnt fiund size

[wary edge]

You cant change the scale as far as i know

[devout dune]

maybe overwriting player entity file with a property, and change scale when property changes?

[wary edge]

Yeah

[remote oyster]

You can do that. I'm not on my computer but a component group which targets "minecraft:scale" should allow you to modify that scale.

[amber granite]

Hey can i get dyied armor

@wary edge is there a way to get dyied leather armor ?

[shy leaf]

in EntityQueryOptions for getEntities in dimension class, does maxDistance and/or closest, farthest, etc work if location is not defined?

something like this

const entities = player.dimension.getEntities({
    maxDistance: 10,
    closest: 5,
    families: [ 'mob' ]
    });
entities.forEach(entity => {
        ...
});

[amber granite]

Yes

[shy leaf]

does the location fallback to player.location in player.dimension then?

i could test it but i cant open minecraft rn

[amber granite]

What ?

[shy leaf]

like

you said it works, right?

does it automatically use player.location

[amber granite]

Yes

[shy leaf]

neato

[amber granite]

Ofc

[naive tinsel]

        world.structureManager.place("island", player.dimension, {
            x: (slot*1000)+61,
            y: 31,
            z: (slot*1000)+59
        }, {
            animationMode: StructureAnimationMode.Layers,
            animationSeconds: 2,
        })```how come it says structure doesnt exist when i can load it ingame through the chat?

[amber granite]

Does any one know how to make a structure generator

I want to use barrels as containers

[shy leaf]

namespace?

[naive tinsel]

huh

[remote oyster]

@devout dune

In player.json just add something like this as a component.

"components": {
    "minecraft:scale": {
        "value": 1.5 // set to whatever you want
    }
}

Then in your script here is an example on how to change it.

system.run(() => {
    const player = world.getPlayers()[0];
    const scale = player.getComponent("scale").value;
    if (scale > 0) {
        // This cannot be edited in read-only mode
        player.getComponent("scale").value = 0;
    }
});

[shy leaf]

wheres the namespace

[naive tinsel]

the structure is saved to memory on the world

if thats what your asking

[shy leaf]

hmmmmm

[naive tinsel]

through the structure block

[shy leaf]

no i was asking if you did put the namespace on the structure's id

like how you put minecraft:

[naive tinsel]

oh

is that required?

[amber granite]

What is ur structure name ?

[naive tinsel]

island

[amber granite]

Is in in structures file in ur behaviour pack?

[shy leaf]

yea, it defaults to minecraft: if it doesnt have one

which is probably why it doesnt work

[shy leaf]

the script is trying to run mystructure:island

[naive tinsel]

so
mystructure:island?

[amber granite]

Yes

[naive tinsel]

ah yes it works now

[shy leaf]

ok nvm i thought i was tripping

[amber granite]

I want structure generator._.

[naive tinsel]

ok then make one

[shy leaf]

generator as in?

can you be more specific

[amber granite]

So

In script resources

I saw someone that used barrels as containers

Using mcstructure

[shy leaf]

huh

[amber granite]

But

When i saw his files

I found that he has 108 structure

[shy leaf]

itemStack check in runInterval

and when the player has the item, spawn particle

[gray tinsel]

doing minecraft damage gonna be fun :)

[grand heart]

how to catch and cancel fatal damage?

[random flint]

Can't do that with Script yet

[grand heart]

oh no how about player.json?

[amber granite]

Can i detect when player uses command or command block get used ?

Like :
/tag

Or idk

[subtle cove]

u sure it's itemStack?.typeId

[subtle cove]

Not possible for now

[amber granite]

Sad

[subtle cove]

/scriptevent, yes

[amber granite]

Not even with chatsend ?

[amber granite]

Sad

[cold shoal]

Is it possible to get the equipped armor of an armor stand?

[subtle cove]

Have u tried it?

[amber granite]

Yes

[cold shoal]

Tried equippable and inventory and it returns underfined

[amber granite]

It s possible

Get the armor stand entity

And access container

[subtle cove]

Then no... 🙄

[cold shoal]

The inventory component returns undefined.

[cold shoal]

Wait let me try again

[amber granite]

No

Use "equippable"

Component

[cold shoal]

Same thing, returns undefined

[amber granite]

Hih

Huh

[amber granite]

Show me ur code

[cold shoal]

const armorStands = world.getDimension("overworld").getEntities({type: "minecraft:armor_stand"})
for (const armorStand of armorStands) {
    const equippable =  armorStand.getComponent("minecraft:equippable");

    const bootsArmor = equippable.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Feet)

    console.warn(bootsArmor.typeId)
}

something like this

[amber granite]

remove minecraft:

[subtle cove]

world.sendMessage(armorStand.getComponents().map(c=>c.typeId).join('\n')) 

[cold shoal]

still not working

[cold shoal]

this one also shows undefined error for c

for (const armorStand of armorStands) {
    console.warn(armorStand.typeId) // I'm sure armor stand exists

    world.sendMessage(armorStand.getComponents().map(c=>c.typeId).join('\n')) 
}

[subtle cove]

Breh

c?.typeId

[cold shoal]

Ohh, type_family and health are the only components readable ig?

It only sends message for those comps

[subtle cove]

That not beta, right?

[cold shoal]

Yeah

[subtle cove]

Mhm

[amber granite]

How can i add colors to an objective on display

[subtle cove]

addObjective(objId, displayName)

[amber granite]

No i mean

I just add
" | " + "§3green"

To the second argument

And i get this error

[Scripting][error]-TypeError: Native type conversion failed. Interface property ['objective'] expected type: ScoreboardObjective (failed parsing interface to Function argument [1]) at teleportToTeam (forbiddenAreas.js:118)
at <anonymous> (forbiddenAreas.js:61)

Why is that ?

[subtle cove]

ScoreboardObjective, not objective string

[amber granite]

Huh ?

addObjective( "something" , colors[color] + color)

That s how i got it

colors[color] and color are both strings

[subtle cove]

world.scoreboard.addObjective(objId, display)

[amber granite]

Yes i did that

[subtle cove]

Whats on this line?

[amber granite]

This

[misty pivot]

how would i add a property/method to a prototype?
like entity.myPrototype.action(1)

[amber granite]

what ?

entity.prototype.urMethod = function ( paramters) {
//Code
}

[cold shoal]

How did you set the display?

[amber granite]

setObjectiveAtDisplay("BelowName") , {objective : "something"})

[cold shoal]

The "objective" property should be a Socreboard Objective

[amber granite]

Oh yeah i see

[subtle cove]

its getObjective there

[cold shoal]

world.scoreboard.addObjective("idString", "§pColored")
const scoreboardObjective = world.scoreboard.getObjective("idString")
world.scoreboard.setObjectiveAtDisplaySlot(DisplaySlotId.Sidebar, {objective: scoreboardObjective})

like this

[amber granite]

My bad so

Thank u guys very much

[misty pivot]

i tried that but it acted like a method or smth, basically like entity.myPrototype(1) im not sure what it's called

[subtle cove]

Search "Proxy"

[turbid oriole]

How do I reduce the durability of an item? Without losing your current enchantments.

[misty pivot]

ah i see thank you

[turbid oriole]

When you use it, do not mention the prototype, it is not necessary. Just use it from the object, Javascript does the search in the prototype chain.

[turbid oriole]

If you want to add to the prototype during creation there are also ways.

[misty pivot]

what kind of ways?

[amber granite]

Hmm ?

[amber granite]

Bro , use prototype

@misty pivot

[amber granite]

Because it used like that :
entity.urMethod()

@misty pivot

[misty pivot]

mb, i was away earlier

[amber granite]

What are u trying to do ?

Make new method or proprety

Into an entity?

Or player

[misty pivot]

yeah pretty much, but like i can add another method to that method

similar to how you can put dimension after entity

[amber granite]

Ah

It s possible

Just ur function must return an object

That s all

U mean
player.method().method2()

@misty pivot

[misty pivot]

yeah

[amber granite]

Then use something like

[misty pivot]

something like this?

Entity.prototype.method1 = {
    function() {
        return function method2() {
            ...
        }
    }
}```

[amber granite]

Not exactly

something like this?

Entity.prototype.method1 = {
    function() {
        return { method2 : function() {
            ...
        } }
    }
}```

[misty pivot]

ah i see

[amber granite]

Put it in prototype, so u can use it in any player or entity

[misty pivot]

can i declare the functions outside it because if i where to have a ton of methods it would look like a mess

[amber granite]

Yes

U can declare it somewhere else

Like

function foo(){}

method2 : foo

[misty pivot]

alright thanks, also do you think it's more efficient than using classes? because i usually do something like class(player, /*a ton of properties*/)

[amber granite]

What u mean

By that

[valid ice]

jsdocs?

[amber granite]

Yes

It is

• Player is a class by itself

[misty pivot]

well i declare a class then i convert it to an object and put it in events (like world events and such) and to declare the player in the class i put the player in it

[valid ice]

.d.ts is a magical thing :3

[amber granite]

Why ?

[valid ice]

Used to declare types for js code

[amber granite]

Oh yeah

[valid ice]

[misty pivot]

is ts used more than js for scripting?

[amber granite]

What happens inside that class ?

[amber granite]

It s just a js with typing

[misty pivot]

functions and stuff, it's my way of organizing things

[valid ice]

.ts needs to be compiled to .js to run within minecraft

[amber granite]

Yeah it better to use prototype in this one

[amber granite]

What s difference between
.d.ts , .ts

[valid ice]

extend prototype is pretty poggers ngl

[amber granite]

Wait ,

[valid ice]

.d.ts is used to declare types for regular use in .js scripts- think of a .d.ts like a large jdoc file
.ts is it's own language based off .js, and must be compiled.

.d.ts doesn't do anything but provide autocompletion & intellisense in the editor

[amber granite]

Oh

That s cool

So it s like ts file that s compatible with js

It s for notations

[valid ice]

Like with this-

[amber granite]

I get it

But why is it magical

Isn't a normal thing :T

[valid ice]

I get autocompletion for inventory component, and a custom message to tell me what's happening

[amber granite]

I don't get it

[valid ice]

https://tenor.com/view/gigi-il-pirlo-gif-7791227938665575149

[valid ice]

yes

[amber granite]

So u are happy because u changed the documentation that is there so u can understand it easily

[valid ice]

It does nothing in-game itself

[valid ice]

Only used for the editor and ease of use for the coding

[amber granite]

I never mentioned the game here ☠️

[valid ice]

Alright

[amber granite]

Alright that s cool too , i hope u are happy with it : )

[valid ice]

I definitely am

I cannot use typescript

It yells at me too much 😭

[amber granite]

I was just thinking in using it

[valid ice]

"YOU CANNOT USE A string | number | boolean | undefined FOR A NUMBER TYPE YOU IDIOT"

[amber granite]

But ngl it just used for big projects

[valid ice]

(I really should use it tbh)

[amber granite]

There is no reason to use it in an add-on

[amber granite]

How is that possible ☠️
There is number already

[valid ice]

I just cannot be bothered to change my scripts

[valid ice]

ah, but it could be the others as well

That's what ts does

stricter rules than a prison warden

It catches stupid mistakes

[amber granite]

U are laterally telling an ordinary programming language rules ☠️

[tight sparrow]

How to make your entity knockback mobs with resistance

[amber granite]

UsIng script api ?

[misty pivot]

apply the same force but the opposite direction of the knockback/attacker's location

or if you mean entities just use minecraft:knockback_resistance

[amber granite]

He can use
entityHitEntity event too

[tight sparrow]

And how do you make mob walk backwards when the target is near

[misty pivot]

erm, are you sure you're in the right channel?

[random flint]

Maybe check ranged mobs .json

also ocelot.json

[lapis heart]

Hey guys. How many characters are allowed in a textField description?

[turbid oriole]

You cannot return a function declared on the same line. It must be expressed or previously declared, I think.

[misty pivot]

lmao you are so delayed, but yeah kiro taught me that i could make it return objects

[turbid oriole]

How do I add custom components to items?

[turbid oriole]

Also functions. Without needing the object.

Although this is not to learn Javascript. Here is to get my question answered.

How do I add custom components to items?

[amber granite]

Not possible right now

[turbid oriole]

I don't want to read the component.

[amber granite]

I think 255

[turbid oriole]

I knew it. Although the documentation said yes xD.

Can I change the durability of an item in the inventory?

[amber granite]

Oh custom component

Yesh u can make it using script

[lapis heart]

I think this is the allowed number of buttons in ActionFormData.

[turbid oriole]

How do I place the component in the json?

[misty pivot]

"minecraft:custom_components": [ "name" ]

i believe like this

[turbid oriole]

Please correct the documentation, the last word appears in plural.

[misty pivot]

mb mb, it is actually plural

[turbid oriole]

Then you are wrong. It does not work.

[misty pivot]

and must be 1.20.80+ format

[turbid oriole]

Oh.

Can I put format 1.21.0?

[misty pivot]

yep

[amber granite]

world.beforeEvents.worldInitialize.subscribe((e) => {
// Custom for block
e.blockComponentRegistry.register.CustomComponent("ur:custom_comp" , {
// An example
onPlace(e) {
//Ur code
}
})
}

[turbid oriole]

Formatting is always a pain in many jsons.

[turbid oriole]

I know. I know everything else.

[obsidian coyote]

If I'm not mistaken, you might have to use 1.20.80 because iirc that doesn't work

[amber granite]

It s too limited tho : T

[obsidian coyote]

I mean- It's supposed to be a replacement for Block/Item events so

[amber granite]

Replacement for my precious events

[obsidian coyote]

imo it allows for way more

[amber granite]

Why they are lazy

[turbid oriole]

XD don't use 1.21.0

[amber granite]

Js dosen't bite pplz

[obsidian coyote]

I don't think they are lazy

[misty pivot]

also, i tested custom components in a server, it doesn't seem to work :/

[distant tulip]

32k bit probably
but be careful it can crush your game

[shy leaf]

i can confirm but i learned this from something else and not textField

[turbid oriole]

How strange, the icon component is failing me when updating the format version.

[amber granite]

Are u sure ?

[distant tulip]

yeah just tested it with 2000 char

[shy leaf]

and this happened to me twice because of miscalculation

[obsidian coyote]

Do you have HCF enabled?

[turbid oriole]

:v ?

[obsidian coyote]

Trying to use the "minecraft:custom_components" component with both Beta APIs and HCF enabled will cause issues

[obsidian coyote]

Holiday Creator Features

[lapis heart]

Bruh, this means I have to use body in ActionFormData.

[turbid oriole]

:0

[turbid oriole]

I'll see.

[distant tulip]

why is that?

[amber granite]

Are u writing the bible ☠️

[misty pivot]

AH, NO WONDER IT DIDN'T WORK IN THE SERVER, thanks for the info

[turbid oriole]

Scam.

[distant tulip]

15000 char

[shy leaf]

yep thats what happened to me, but with nametags instead

[lapis heart]

Lol. I'll do something similar to the chat.

[obsidian coyote]

Don't worry, the toggle has been removed in 1.21.20 so all you need to do is wait for stable release

[amber granite]

☠️

What are u cooking

[lapis heart]

Bruuuh. Not this.

I mean this

[distant tulip]

the filed name?

[turbid oriole]

It actually works for me, only now the icon fails xD

[lapis heart]

Yes

I think I explained it wrong 🤣

[obsidian coyote]

That happens because of conflicting schemas xD

[lapis heart]

I will make a Clans Add-on

[distant tulip]

same thing

[lapis heart]

Nice, what is the maximum?

[distant tulip]

it start to lag but let me see
those are 10 000 char

[obsidian coyote]

Ah wait

[lapis heart]

I don't think I need this number. 💀

[obsidian coyote]

(both of these work) ```json
{
"minecraft:icon": "reforged:copper_pickaxe"
}

or
```json
{
  "minecraft:icon": {
    "textures": {
      "default": "reforged:copper_pickaxe"
    }
  }
}

[turbid oriole]

😦 what is the current scheme? I already get a scheme error.

[turbid oriole]

Fuck Mojang.

[distant tulip]

alr

[lapis heart]

I did not understand

[distant tulip]

alright

[obsidian coyote]

They had to change it to make trimming possible for custom items

[turbid oriole]

How do I reduce the durability? Without losing the current state of the object.

There is no point in increasing the damage of the durability component.

[lapis heart]

Oh, well then I'll use it, Thx

[turbid oriole]

And where were they notified of the change?

[obsidian coyote]

1.20.70 changelog

I think

[turbid oriole]

TnT I should check.

[turbid oriole]

.

[open urchin]

why?

[obsidian coyote]

I've been doing it using the durability component in Scripting

[turbid oriole]

The damage property of the durability component on itemStack objects.

[turbid oriole]

And how? It does not work.

[open urchin]

you need to set the item

[obsidian coyote]

You'd have to set the item back

[open urchin]

with equippable.setEquipment or slot.setItem

[turbid oriole]

:'v And it doesn't remove the enchantments or anything?

[obsidian coyote]

Nope

[turbid oriole]

TnT okey

[obsidian coyote]

iirc if you use container.getSlot it should update without having to set it back

[open urchin]

slots dont let you get components, only ItemStacks

[obsidian coyote]

I thought they always did, huh

[open urchin]

you can change amount though

[turbid oriole]

Do the Source properties of the events return only one entity? They don't return a player?

[amber granite]

Returns the source entity

The entity which triggered the event

[obsidian coyote]

An entity can be a player

[amber granite]

Can be any entity also

[turbid oriole]

So a Source type entity can return a type player?

[obsidian coyote]

Mhm

[open urchin]

you can check with

if (source instanceof Player) {
  // source is player
}

[turbid oriole]

:'v I'll have to verify it on my own then.

[amber granite]

U can use type id also

There are more than one way

To do that

[open urchin]

but instanceof gives automatic type stuff so i find it better

[amber granite]

Yesh

Yeah

[turbid oriole]

import player

[amber granite]

import Player

[open urchin]

yes you need to

[turbid oriole]

Suspense mode.

I forgot a letter.

I'm hungry.

[amber granite]

Vrom vrom

[turbid oriole]

Recommend movies.

[woven loom]

anyone know whats the diffrence b.w getPlayers() vs getAllPlayers() without query

[amber granite]

Yes

[obsidian coyote]

Probably not in this channel.. #off-topic is the right place.

[turbid oriole]

One returns a player and the other a list of all players.

[amber granite]

getPlayers() has options

getAllPlayers() dosen't have

[turbid oriole]

One receives a filter parameter and the other nothing.

[obsidian coyote]

There shouldn't be any difference

[woven loom]

yea why do we even have 2

[turbid oriole]

Yes, the Source is player type.

[amber granite]

Because, u want to specify player

Idk only players who has some tags

Included

[turbid oriole]

Filter function.

[woven loom]

query is optiomal

in getPlayers()

[turbid oriole]

Yes. That's why the "?" sign.

[amber granite]

Yes

[neat hound]

I cannot get this to workjs import { MinecraftEntityTypes } from "@minecraft/vanilla-data";if I do not have it, MinecraftEntityTypes is undefined, if I do have it and TRY to throw in the dependency, it says ```
[Scripting][error]-Plugin [§cPreview§r: §6Beta§r: Test Space BP - 1.0.0] - failed to create context.

[Scripting][error]-Plugin [§cPreview§r: §6Beta§r: Test Space BP] - module [§cPreview§r: §6Beta§r: Test Space BP - 1.0.0] depends on unknown module [@minecraft/vanilla-data - 1.21.20].

[Scripting][error]-Plugin [§cPreview§r: §6Beta§r: Test Space BP - 1.0.0] - run failed, no runtime or context available.

[obsidian coyote]

That will probably change in v2

[amber granite]

Did u turn it to js ?

[woven loom]

hmm

[amber granite]

Just getPlayers() used for filtering the player

[turbid oriole]

To not have to filter inside the function and to be able to do it outside in a better way with the list.

With iterators.

[obsidian coyote]

You might have to use absolute paths or TypeScript though you need to install the package using NPM

[amber granite]

getAllPlayers() give u all players that are connected to that world

[obsidian coyote]

And so does getPlayers()

[turbid oriole]

That is, download the package directly and place it where it should go.

[amber granite]

Yes

[amber granite]

Transpile the ts to js

[obsidian coyote]

Their question was why do we have two despite them doing the same thing excluding queries

[amber granite]

Oh

[turbid oriole]

We even have an iterator:

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

[amber granite]

Yeah , they just can make the queries inside getAllPlayers()

Instead of making two methods

That s a dumb thing

That s weird

[neat hound]

I code in js

[woven loom]

what are you talkin about ? have you seen the signatures of both

• getPlayers(option?): Player[]
• getAllPlayers(): Player[]

[obsidian coyote]

I don't think that's being used anywhere LOL

[amber granite]

vanilla-data needs to be compiled to js

[obsidian coyote]

It already has a bundled JS file ready inside the package

[amber granite]

• u need to download it first

Because isn't included in the game

[neat hound]

The auto completion is working, maybe because I have the npm? download it from where

[turbid oriole]

:v in my defense we are screwed.

[turbid oriole]

XD I think the same haha.

[turbid oriole]

Download NodeJs, it has npm inside.

[amber granite]

What are u talking about :T

[neat hound]

I have npm

[turbid oriole]

I, who am in cel, would only translate those packages and rush them to my script.

[neat hound]

I need @minecraft/vanilla-data

[amber granite]

Can u tell me how do u use vanilla-data module ?

[neat hound]

I mean I need it towork

[amber granite]

I mean where did u put it

[turbid oriole]

Use commands. For install. The npm commands. Install.

[obsidian coyote]

Right click on your scripts folder, then open in terminal

Run npm i @minecraft/vanilla-data

[neat hound]

import { MinecraftEntityTypes } from "@minecraft/vanilla-data";

[amber granite]

Yeah i mean

U didn't put it in script's file ?

[obsidian coyote]

then import { MinecraftEntityTypes } from "./node_modules/@minecraft/vanilla-data/lib/index.js";

[amber granite]

Did u use it directly from the game , i mean like server module ?

[turbid oriole]

Does vscode then make code modifications? XD is that we don't know if those packages are natively inside Minecraft.

[obsidian coyote]

Wdym by code modifications?

[turbid oriole]

It's not a question of intellisense, it's a question of compatibility. Better convert to js and put them where they need to go.

[turbid oriole]

When in doubt, the most buxom.

[amber granite]

There is already a js file called index.js

In vanilla module

[turbid oriole]

The package that imports needs to exist internally. To avoid error.

[turbid oriole]

Perfect.

[obsidian coyote]

?

[amber granite]

Tell her to put the
Index.js in scripts file

And use it from there

@neat hound

[turbid oriole]

:v we are the powerful of the server. XD

[neat hound]

what about the manifest....... and I am getting [Scripting][error]-Plugin [§cPreview§r: §6Beta§r: Test Space BP - 1.0.0] - [main.js] ran with error: [ReferenceError: Module [node_modules/@minecraft/vanilla-data/lib/index.js] not found. Native module error or file not found.]

[turbid oriole]

I lack power >:v

[amber granite]

Let me explain u something

vanilla-data

[obsidian coyote]

You don’t have to add it to the manifest

[amber granite]

Dosen't exist in the game

[turbid oriole]

Do you know where I can find people for a small project that I have with a graphic designer?

[obsidian coyote]

also you need to download it in your scripts folder using NPM

[amber granite]

U need to download it via npm

[turbid oriole]

XD jaja

[amber granite]

Hmmm

[neat hound]

I ran that npm but it did not add any files to a folder that I can see

[amber granite]

Now

Go to the module

Copy the index.js

From vanilla-data

[obsidian coyote]

Did you run it in the scripts folder? It should create the usual NPM stuff including the node_modules

[amber granite]

Put it in script file

[neat hound]

Not sure it did it, it is talking about an audit

[amber granite]

Then

import { MinecraftEntityTypes } from "./index.js"

[obsidian coyote]

hmm

[amber granite]

I gtg :T

[turbid oriole]

Is Minecraft native with TypeScript?

Oh no. I get it.

[turbid oriole]

To calculate the amount inside the modules exported from index.

[obsidian coyote]

sorry?

[amber granite]

We will never understand this guy : T

[neat hound]

😭

[amber granite]

Please ma'am

Just copy index.js from vanilla-data module

Put it in ur scripts file

[obsidian coyote]

The issue is, it’s not there when she runs npm install

[neat hound]

What vanilla-data module.. where be this file on my computer

[amber granite]

Then change the import to :

import { MinecraftEntityTypes} from "./index" 

[amber granite]

U see node_module

U see that path

[obsidian coyote]

Try running npm init then rerun the install

[amber granite]

https://www.npmjs.com/package/@minecraft/vanilla-data

[glacial widget]

"mystructure:island"

put the full name with the id

[feral minnow]

its been a longgg time

[neat hound]

I did that and had to press ctrl-C to get out, it was asking for ??

[neat hound]

Thanks,m I am grabbing the enum code

[glacial widget]

that causing the error?

[obsidian coyote]

That will generate a package.json file for you which you can use to install packages

Or you can create the file yourself and just make the content this {}

[turbid oriole]

Can I simulate breaking an object easily or will I have to play the sound and remove the object?

[obsidian coyote]

A block? You could use the fill command

[turbid oriole]

An object.

Item

[obsidian coyote]

But what does sound have to do with an object?

Ah

Yeah, you could do that

[turbid oriole]

Durability does not cause the destruction of the object.

[neat hound]

That worked, now I have that folder...

[obsidian coyote]

Does importing the JS file work now?

[neat hound]

No, cause it is TS and I am not set up for that.. can't find the extension I had to right-click convert.... and that command moved my main.js.. LOL

[obsidian coyote]

Wait wha-

[feral minnow]

hey

[glacial widget]

world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe((ev) =>{
    const {block, player, itemStack} = ev
    const tokens = {
        "minecraft:nether_wart": 100,
        "minecraft:nether_star": 200
    }
    const ores = ["minecraft:coal", "", ""]

    const money = world.scoreboard.getObjective("Money")

    if(block.typeId == "minecraft:lime_stained_glass" && block.x == -17 && block.y == 176 && block.z == 32){

        if (itemStack?.typeId in tokens) {
            const hand = player.getComponent("equippable").getEquipmentSlot("Mainhand") 
            if (itemStack.amount === 1) hand.setItem()
            else hand.amount--
            player.addScore(player, tokens[itemStack.typeId])
        }

    }
})

Could someone help? itemStack is not defined why?

[feral minnow]

try use selectedSlot

[glacial widget]

found out why it was not defined but now am getting nothing at all even when am interacting with the block

[feral minnow]

player.getComponent("inventory").container.getItem(player.selectedSlot)

[glacial widget]

let me try that rn

still nothing at all

[neat hound]

There is the index.js with scrunched code. I guess I can do a straight import of that file

[feral minnow]

what

try console.warn

[obsidian coyote]

Yeah!! That's how I do it

[glacial widget]

i did that

and it works

but this does not run

if (itemStack?.typeId in tokens) {
                const hand = player.getComponent("inventory").container.getSlot(player.selectedSlot)
                if (itemStack.amount === 1) hand.setItem()
                else hand.amount--
                player.addScore(player, tokens[itemStack.typeId])
            }

[feral minnow]

its

{1,2,3,4}

[glacial widget]

{1,2,3,4} ?

[feral minnow]

const {block, blockFace, faceLocation, itemStack} = ev

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

[obsidian coyote]

Does this work?

if (itemStack?.typeId in tokens) {
  const equippable = player.getComponent("equippable");
  const hand = equippable.getEquipmentSlot("Mainhand") 
  if (itemStack.amount === 1) equippable.setEquipment("Mainhand")
  else hand.amount--
  money.addScore(player.scoreboardIdentity, tokens[itemStack.typeId])
};

[feral minnow]

what does this mean

itemStack?.typeId in tokens

[amber granite]

It s synatx to see if that property exist in an object or not

[glacial widget]

when i hold the tokens in my hands i dont get no console warn

[glacial widget]

or nothing

[obsidian coyote]

Same as

tokens.hasOwnProperty(itemStack?.typeId)

Checks if it has a value in an object

[amber granite]

Not the same

[feral minnow]

hey try this

[obsidian coyote]

Why not?

[amber granite]

in - includes prototype properties

[feral minnow]

.

you are using faceLocation instead of the itemStack

[obsidian coyote]

I mean it's an object

[glacial widget]

    if(block.typeId == "minecraft:lime_stained_glass" && block.x == -17 && block.y == 176 && block.z == 32){
        console.warn("hello")
            if (itemStack?.typeId in tokens) {
                const equippable = player.getComponent("equippable");
                const hand = equippable.getEquipmentSlot("Mainhand") 
                if (itemStack.amount === 1) equippable.setEquipment("Mainhand")
                else hand.amount--
                money.addScore(player.scoreboardIdentity, tokens[itemStack.typeId])
              };
    }
})

Nope

[amber granite]

HasOwnProperty is used for something else

[feral minnow]

world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe((ev) =>{
   // const {block, player, itemStack} = ev
    const itemStack = ev.itemStack
    const block = ev.block
    const tokens = {
        "minecraft:nether_wart": 100,
        "minecraft:nether_star": 200
    }
    const ores = ["minecraft:coal", "", ""]

    const money = world.scoreboard.getObjective("Money")

    if(block.typeId == "minecraft:lime_stained_glass" && block.x == -17 && block.y == 176 && block.z == 32){

        if (itemStack?.typeId in tokens) {
            const hand = player.getComponent("equippable").getEquipmentSlot("Mainhand") 
            if (itemStack.amount === 1) hand.setItem()
            else hand.amount--
            player.addScore(player, tokens[itemStack.typeId])
        }

    }
})

[obsidian coyote]

TBH I use that most of the time

[amber granite]

Not good

[glacial widget]

still nothing..

[obsidian coyote]

No? Order doesn't matter in an object

[amber granite]

What if that property was in constuctor prototype?

[glacial widget]

the file in imported to the main.js

[amber granite]

U can't detect it

[glacial widget]

how comes?

i can detect the block and location

[feral minnow]

world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe((ev) =>{
   // const {block, player, itemStack} = ev
    const itemStack = player.getComponent("inventory").container.getItem(player.selectedSlot)
    const block = ev.block
    const tokens = {
        "minecraft:nether_wart": 100,
        "minecraft:nether_star": 200
    }
    const ores = ["minecraft:coal", "", ""]

    const money = world.scoreboard.getObjective("Money")

    if(block.typeId == "minecraft:lime_stained_glass" && block.x == -17 && block.y == 176 && block.z == 32){

        if (itemStack?.typeId in tokens) {
            const hand = player.getComponent("equippable").getEquipmentSlot("Mainhand") 
            if (itemStack.amount === 1) hand.setItem()
            else hand.amount--
            player.addScore(player, tokens[itemStack.typeId])
        }

    }
})

dumbway

[obsidian coyote]

Don't think that would work

[feral minnow]

why

[obsidian coyote]

Why would I need to do that?

[amber granite]

• wrong
  hasOwnProperty
  Only exists on Object class

[glacial widget]

how comes

[amber granite]

Because half of script resources

[neat hound]

Okay, I am in business... now to test...

[amber granite]

Made with prototype

[obsidian coyote]

I don't think I've used anything from there LOL

[amber granite]

Because maybe some of script api using prototypel inheritence

[obsidian coyote]

#debug-playground message

[amber granite]

U can use
tokens[itemStack.typeId]
Instead of all that sh** 🤦🏻‍♂️

[feral minnow]

bro if i were you im just gonna console.warn all the variables

[amber granite]

What s the problem?

[glacial widget]

yep i did, everything works but when i hold the acutally item the console log for that does not run at all

[feral minnow]

console.warn

[glacial widget]

yep did that

[feral minnow]

oh

[glacial widget]

all the code works outside of this

if (itemStack?.typeId in tokens) {
            const hand = player.getComponent("equippable").getEquipmentSlot("Mainhand") 
            if (itemStack.amount === 1) hand.setItem()
            else hand.amount--
            player.addScore(player, tokens[itemStack.typeId])
        }

[amber granite]

That doesn't work ?

[feral minnow]

guys how do i disable timeout

[glacial widget]

i found another way of doing it which works but now i would need to get the vaule of the tokens from the objects

world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe((ev) =>{
    const {block, blockFace, faceLocation, itemStack, player} = ev
    const tokens = {
        "minecraft:nether_wart": 100,
        "minecraft:nether_star": 200
    }
    const ores = ["minecraft:coal", "", ""]

    const money = world.scoreboard.getObjective("Money")

    if(block.typeId == "minecraft:lime_stained_glass" && block.x == -17 && block.y == 176 && block.z == 32){
        console.warn("hello")
        player.runCommand(`/clear @s ${tokens[0]}`)
        money.addScore(player, tokens)
    }
})

[amber granite]

What s the problem !!!

[feral minnow]

i honestly dont know

kiro

how do i disable script itmeout

[amber granite]

system.clearRun(iterval)

[feral minnow]

what

[glacial widget]

how do i get the 100 vaule from the object "minecraft:nether_wart"

[amber granite]

U must put the interval in a variable

[amber granite]

That s all ?

[glacial widget]

yeah

[amber granite]

Use

tokens[itemStack.typeId]

[neat hound]

.. no idea that there are 1178 blocks

[feral minnow]

how do i disable watchdog

[granite badger]

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/functions/_minecraft_debug_utilities_1_0_0_beta.disableWatchdogTimingWarnings.html beta api only

[amber granite]

Go to Creator setting in settings

U will see the watchdog slider put it in max value

[feral minnow]

1.12.0-beta works?

[feral minnow]

ohh

[amber granite]

Or see if there is a toggle to stop it

[feral minnow]

i cant change anything

[granite badger]

it’s another module but you can disable it via system events https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server_1_12_0_beta.SystemBeforeEvents.html#watchdogTerminate

[amber granite]

Hmmm

[amber granite]

Then check that

[feral minnow]

okay

this?

system.beforeEvents.watchdogTerminate.subscribe((ev) =>{
    ev.cancel = true
})

[remote oyster]

Won't work on Realms. Mojang overrides that.

[grand heart]

how to clear all effects without run command?

[glacial widget]

is this how i detect mending on gear

system.runInterval((e) =>{
    for(const player of world.getAllPlayers()){
        mending = new EnchantmentType()
        const inventory = player.getComponent("inventory").container
        const item = inventory.getItem()
        const ench = item.getComponent("enchantable")
        const men = ench.hasEnchantment({ type: new EnchantmentType("mending"), level: 1})
        if(player.hasTag() !== "t1" && men){
            player.runCommand(`/clear @s ${men}`)
        }

    }
})

[remote oyster]

hasTag() requires an arg.

Example:

const IF_TRUE = player.hasTag("money"); // Returns a Boolean

[glacial widget]

oh

[prisma shard]

How to get the "distance" between two vector3?

[amber granite]

I told u use chebychev distance

[prisma shard]

hard to understand

[glacial widget]

am gussing its dx

some as the target selections in commands

[prisma shard]

what

[glacial widget]

/give @e[dx=1, x-2]

[prisma shard]

uh i dont want to use commands

I meant scripting

[glacial widget]

yeah ik

so probably like this

player.location.dx == 1

[remote oyster]

const player = world.getPlayers()[0];

const effects = player.getEffects();

effects.forEach(effect => {
    const effectType = player.getEffect(effect);
    player.removeEffect(effectType);
});

[prisma shard]

@remote oyster

[amber granite]

function chebyshevDistance(vector1, vector2) {
    let differenceX = Math.abs(vector1.x - vector2.x);
    let differenceZ = Math.abs(vector1.z - vector2.z);

    return Math.max(differenceX, differenceZ);
}

// Example usage
const vector1 = { x: 1, z: 2 };
const vector2 = { x: 4, z: 0 };

console.log(chebyshevDistance(vector1, vector2)); // Output: 3

[remote oyster]

const playerLocation = player.location;
const blockLocation = block.location;

const distance = Math.sqrt(
    Math.pow(blockLocation.x - playerLocation.x, 2) +
    Math.pow(blockLocation.y - playerLocation.y, 2) +
    Math.pow(blockLocation.z - playerLocation.z, 2)
);

console.log(`Distance: ${distance}`);

[prisma shard]

Can you make a function

to calculate the distance betwern two vector3

[turbid oriole]

You're blind.

[prisma shard]

Can you make it a function

..

[turbid oriole]

Do you like mathematics?

[prisma shard]

I don't want to use chevyshev distance as kiro

i want to do as VisualImpact did

[turbid oriole]

...Make a function that receives 2 objects with 3 attributes each.

[amber granite]

U need it

[turbid oriole]

Then you do the calculation and a return with the formula, Pythagorean theorem.

[amber granite]

Because it calculates the distance in grid area

And that games uses most of times

[turbid oriole]

I remembered that Mojang has a public library of mathematical utilities for working with vectors.

It is in npm attached to @minecraft

[prisma shard]

function distance(vector1, vector2) {
return Math.sqrt(
Math.pow(vector1.x - vector2.x, 2) +
    Math.pow(vector1.y - vector2.y, 2) +
    Math.pow(vector1.z - vector2.z, 2)
)
};

@remote oyster is this right?

I made a function using your method

[amber granite]

No

[turbid oriole]

He's horrible in the chat but yeah.

[amber granite]

Y musn't be included

[prisma shard]

UHH

[turbid oriole]

The return, place it.

[amber granite]

If u want to calculate distance in 2D plane

[prisma shard]

vector3..…..

[prisma shard]

oh, oopsies thx

[turbid oriole]

It is not native. I know, but it can still be used.

[amber granite]

Ok i told u :T , what to do it s ur choice

[amber granite]

I don't care about if it s native or not

[prisma shard]

{x, y, z}: Vector3

my function is for vec3

not vec2

[amber granite]

U don't need to calculate the Y with them

[prisma shard]

what?????????

bro are you crazy

[amber granite]

If block's Y is different even if their x and z was the same

[prisma shard]

for example, if my code gets distance betwen x,z and x,z (from block to player)... And if i fly up from the block, it wont measure the distance....

[amber granite]

Y still included

And will give u some horrible calculations

[prisma shard]

x and z can get y?

[amber granite]

Bruh

[amber granite]

No

[prisma shard]

How is y not needed 😭

[amber granite]

Distance is calculated in 3D plane

So let s say u have two block in the same x and z

But their Y is different

As example block above other block

[remote oyster]

You include the Y coordinate if you want to calculate the distance in 3D space, and you ignore the Y coordinate if you want to calculate the distance in 2D space. So depending on what your goals are will depend on which one you may desire.

[turbid oriole]

Mi huevo. Jaja

[amber granite]

But in that situation i don't think Y is useful

[turbid oriole]

By the way, I'm a math student, I can help.

[amber granite]

Good

[amber granite]

I don't think he wants the extra dimension

So he will come back later

And tell us why my code isn't working

Because he calculating distance in 3d but he is assuming that the distance in 2D space

[turbid oriole]

I returned. Make me a list of the boy's needs, be precise. I speak Spanish and I must translate, I want just one message.

The boy needed to measure the distance of two vectors, right? Now you need to measure the distance of two volumes?

[amber granite]

Si vas a calcular la distancia entre dos ubicaciones, ¿usarás Y?

[turbid oriole]

Yeah

[remote oyster]

That depends on their goal. If they only want the horizontal difference between two points then 2D space is fine, but if they are wanting true straight-line distance between two points, where height matters, such as teleportation, projectiles, or vertical movements, then 3D space is necessary.

[turbid oriole]

A generalization of the Pythagorean theorem for Euclid spaces is used.

It is called space metric.

[amber granite]

, but mostly no one uses the straight line , for the did

Only the horizontal one

[remote oyster]

That's false.

[amber granite]

I said mostly

[remote oyster]

Mostly is still false. The majority here don't even know the difference let alone how to apply it correctly.

[turbid oriole]

Correct

[amber granite]

Ok let him uses the 3D space and i bet that he will return again , and tell us why my script isn't working

[turbid oriole]

You just have to imagine the Pythagorean theorem and rotate the space. There are also ways to view it by iteration.

[glacial widget]

yes a maths class

[remote oyster]

You can't say that because you don't even know what his actual intentions are. You are assuming and for that reason alone makes you arrogant lol. Let them specify in greater detail what they are trying to accomplish, then you can rationally determine which is more fitting.

[amber granite]

Ok :-: my bad

[turbid oriole]

Why does the boy want to measure the distance?

[amber granite]

Tell him

[turbid oriole]

X2

I think we should have told you that you can measure the intersection of two volumes and also that you can measure radial and vector sectors. XD

[amber granite]

@prisma shard what are u trying to make ?

[prisma shard]

just the distance between a entity and the player

bruh you guys started a war lol

i just figured it out

so i dont need help now

calm down everyone

[amber granite]

Block distance? @prisma shard

I mean one block between them , two blocks etc... ?

[distant tulip]

Math.hypot()

[wary edge]

All could been avoided if people knew how to ask good questions

[amber granite]

Yeah :T

[distant tulip]

Math.hypot(x1-x2, y1-y2, z1-z2)
(idk why you pinged me and deleted it)

[amber granite]

When calculating the distance u need the horizontal distance

Or the straight line distance

I don't think anyone would use the straight line distance, because it can cause some weird calculations

And results

Like distance between
{ x : 0 , y : 0 , z : 0 }
And
{ X : 64 , y : 70 , z : 64 }

114.42027792310242

[distant tulip]

i know?
that what hypot dose

[amber granite]

Yes

For that it not good to include y

[distant tulip]

bruh
no you have to

[remote oyster]

I don't think you are fully understanding the difference between the two scenarios and how they can apply.

const player = world.getPlayers()[0];
const blockLocation = { x: 100, y: 64, z: 100 }; // Example block location

// Function to calculate 2D distance (ignoring the y coordinate)
function calculate2DDistance(point1, point2) {
    return Math.sqrt(
        Math.pow(point2.x - point1.x, 2) +
        Math.pow(point2.z - point1.z, 2)
    );
}

// Function to calculate 3D distance
function calculate3DDistance(point1, point2) {
    return Math.sqrt(
        Math.pow(point2.x - point1.x, 2) +
        Math.pow(point2.y - point1.y, 2) +
        Math.pow(point2.z - point1.z, 2)
    );
}

// Get the player's location
const playerLocation = player.location;

// Calculate the 2D and 3D distances between the player and the block
const distance2D = calculate2DDistance(playerLocation, blockLocation);
const distance3D = calculate3DDistance(playerLocation, blockLocation);

// Define maximum allowed distances
const maxDistance2D = 10;
const maxDistance3D = 15;

// Check if the player is within the allowed 2D distance
if (distance2D <= maxDistance2D) {
    console.log("Player is within the allowed 2D distance.");
} else {
    console.log("Player is too far away in 2D space.");
}

// Check if the player is within the allowed 3D distance
if (distance3D <= maxDistance3D) {
    console.log("Player is within the allowed 3D distance.");
} else {
    console.log("Player is too far away in 3D space.");
}

The 2D calculation is useful for horizontal range checks, such as detecting if players are near each other for PVP or interaction purposes.

The 3D calculation is crucial for vertical interactions, such as checking if a player can interact with blocks or entities at different heights. Such as determining the effective range of vertical traps, elevators, or in scenarios where altitude affects gameplay mechanics.

[amber granite]

With Y included

[amber granite]

Without Y included

[remote oyster]

Y included can also count for horizontal direction because it's 3D space.

[amber granite]

Yes but

[remote oyster]

It's application can vary depending on what it's needed for

[amber granite]

Yes

But let s say : someone want s to calculate distance between him and his home

He will never use the 3D space

And most used is horizontal 2D space

[amber granite]

Even in those situations

Or maybe i m wrong

After all it doesn't worth it

[remote oyster]

Try using 2D calculation when monitoring pvp battles and see how that works out.

As I said before, the application varies. Your example shows that 2D would be best preferred if height is not a concern in relation to whether the home is below ground or in the sky.

However, there are other scenarios where if you do not utilize 3D calculations, you will erroneously handle the environment.

[amber granite]

Ok what about distance between two entities?

What we must use

[remote oyster]

In pvp battles, players jump and fly around. 2D would not be the choice of method when monitoring the traffic here, because height becomes crucial ensuring that vertical positioning is considered in range calculations.

[amber granite]

ok

I feel dumb rn XD

[misty pivot]

is there a math function similar to math.clamp from molang? i want to make it so the summed value will be returned as 20 maximum

[amber granite]

math.clamp ?

U mean dosen't pass the limit ? Of 20 ?

[granite badger]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11409895/whats-the-most-elegant-way-to-cap-a-number-to-a-segment
or if you want mojang fancy way use minecraft/math https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/functions/_minecraft_math.clampNumber.html

[amber granite]

function clamp(value, min, max) {
    return Math.max(Math.min(value, max), min);
}

// Usage
let value = 10;
let minVal = 5;
let maxVal = 15;
let clampedValue = clamp(value, minVal, maxVal);
console.log(clampedValue)

[distant tulip]

√((Ax-Bx)² + (Az-Bz)² + (Ay-By)²)

[amber granite]

Yes

[distant tulip]

you are using 2d space
a = √b²+c²

[remote oyster]

What app are you using to make these diagrams. I must know.

[distant tulip]

powerpoint and paint lol

[remote oyster]

Haha, so simple. Very nice.

[distant tulip]

i use it for a lot tbh even some animations

[halcyon phoenix]

what does clamp do?

what yall tryna do?

[halcyon phoenix]

so clamping exists huh.... I normalized vector for applyImpulse() by using the distance. I thought about that solution for a whole day then clamping just shows up where I least needed it. dang

[amber granite]

Make the value never pass maximum value and never be less than the minimum value

[misty pivot]

how do i make a variable in the constructor of a class work for all of its methods, like

class ClassExample {
    constructor(entity) {
        //the entity
    }
    method1() {
        this.entity.kill()
    }
}```

[subtle cove]

constructor(entity) {
this.entity = entity
}

[misty pivot]

do i still have to use this in the other methods?

[amber granite]

Yes

I told u what this used for

[misty pivot]

yeah lmao i forget 😂

but for functions is it

this.myFunction = function() {
    ...
}```

[amber granite]

In class ?

[amber granite]

U need it inside it not outside it

[misty pivot]

how would that look like?

[amber granite]

Ahhh

Use it inside it

Don't put it beside myfunction

[misty pivot]

particularly where inside?

[amber granite]

function() { this.idk }

[misty pivot]

ah i see, thanks

so it would look like this?

function myFunction() {
    this.idk
}```

[amber granite]

Yes

But idk must be inside the object

[misty pivot]

which object?

hold up

alright, yeah at this point im just guessing

[amber granite]

There is object and class

[prisma shard]

Math.sqrt(x * x + y * y + z * z);

And

Math.hypot(x, y, z);

It's the same, right?

@distant tulip

[valid ice]

[valid ice]

slightly different handling of edge-cases

[prisma shard]

yeah your right

But which one should i use

[valid ice]

Doesn't really matter for minecraft use

whichever you prefer- I use hypot because it's easier to read

[prisma shard]

I just tested it

It's just a difference of decimal number

[valid ice]

That's just truncation error

Not a difference in method

[prisma shard]

Truncation error?

[valid ice]

yeh

[prisma shard]

alr

[valid ice]

Computer inaccuracies

Happens a lot, nothing to really be worried about for regular use

[amber granite]

Hey guys

Can i use Player class like that :

Player.myprop = { something : true } 

[prisma shard]

prototype

[amber granite]

I don't want to make prototype

[prisma shard]

idk

[valid ice]

yeh you can assign arbitrary properties to the player after runtime.

[amber granite]

Decimal ?

[amber granite]

Elaborate

[valid ice]

world.getPlayers().forEach(plr => plr.myprop = true)

[amber granite]

I can't make it into the class itself?

[valid ice]

myprop would be true for all players in that case

[prisma shard]

world.getPlayers()[0] and using forEach is the same?

[valid ice]

huh?

[valid ice]

no

[amber granite]

Like prtotype

Prototype*

[valid ice]

You are defining the property here, you do not need to define it beforehand

[prisma shard]

what that [0] do then

[amber granite]

Does it work tho ?

[valid ice]

accesses first element of array

[tiny tartan]

returns first player

[valid ice]

as world.getPlayers() returns Player[]

[prisma shard]

oh oops

[valid ice]

It does.

[amber granite]

Nice

[valid ice]

Note that the stored data is deleted when the world is reloaded/loaded

But it does carry between sessions- aka if a connected player has data saved that way, then logs out and back in, it will stay.

[amber granite]

Thx u

[valid ice]

If the host relogs, though, it will be lost, as the world is being restarted when that happens

Just assume they will be deleted upon logout and you'll be fine

It tell me cannot access undefined of undefined

[valid ice]

[amber granite]

What ?

[distant tulip]

undefined of undefined lol

[amber granite]

Yes

[fallow rivet]

Will a mod using Minecraftserver 1.0.0 run smoothly on all versions?

[valid ice]

Only on versions that support it- I think 1.19.60 and higher?

[amber granite]

function getColorTag(player) {
  for (const colorTag in player.colorsTags) {
    if (player.hasTag(colorTag)) return colorTag;
  }
}

[valid ice]

tbh I do not see why you would need to temporarily store such a large amount of information

[amber granite]

Need it to make switches

For something not suspicious

[valid ice]

Wouldn't it be better to just stringify an array of objects or something to save in a dynamic property?

[amber granite]

No

[valid ice]

Instead of separate properties for every color

[amber granite]

I tried it , isn't the best choice

[valid ice]

[amber granite]

So do u have a fix for that

It looks like game rejectes my object

[valid ice]

Not really no

[amber granite]

: (

So changing the Player.

[valid ice]

That's just a very... odd way of saving data..

[subtle cove]

if (e.initialSpawn)

[valid ice]

Oh lmao

[spring dove]

whats the best i can do to run a code whenever the world creates only

[valid ice]

World initialize event?

[spring dove]

Ok

[spring dove]

So reload dont make it load again?

[valid ice]

Only when the world is loaded up

[spring dove]

mmm so if i relog to the same world it will load again

[valid ice]

Yep

[spring dove]

if thats the case i can just make it happen once with scoreboard

[valid ice]

You can set a dynamic property on the world to prevent it tho

[subtle cove]

Or world time

[valid ice]

if (world.getDynamicProperty('yes')) return;

[spring dove]

ok

this test didnt worked me idk why

Ok it works but it has to have a little delay so it appears when the client completely logged in

[subtle cove]

@amber granite

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

[inland merlin]

Can someone lead me to a basic tutorial in using typescript instead for script api?

[wary edge]

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/scripting/typescript.html

[inland merlin]

Ty

[iron jewel]

you can't bypass this right?

[sudden nest]

Does dynamic import works in the latest stable version of scripting api?

Nvm, searched a keyword, and found out a "Yes" in the latest 1.21.0+

[valid ice]

no

[iron jewel]

wait a minnute

this is literally above 50

[valid ice]

separate lore lines

It takes and returns an array for a reason

[iron jewel]

           case "setlore":
                if (player.isOp()) {
                    let commandText = command.join(" ").trim();
                    let newLore = commandText.slice(8).trim().replace("\\n", "\n");
                    if (!newLore) {
                        player.sendMessage("§cLore text cannot be empty.");
                        break;
                    }            
                let inventory = player.getComponent("inventory").container;
                    let item = inventory.getItem(player.selectedSlotIndex);
                    if (item) {
                        item.setLore([newLore]);
                        inventory.setItem(player.selectedSlotIndex, item);                            player.sendMessage(`§gSet lore to ${newLore}`);                            } else {
                        player.sendMessage("§cYou need to hold an item to set it's lore.");
                    }
                }
            break;```

so I'd have to like

make it detect when you do \n

and make a new phyical line

[valid ice]

.split('\n')

'this is a testing string!'.split(' ') -> ['this', 'is', 'a', 'testing', 'string!'] Example of splitting on spaces

[iron jewel]

so what I'm understanding here

[valid ice]

Do note that there is a limit on lines as well- 20 max.

[glacial widget]

yes. maths

[iron jewel]

is that it's making it so you can have infinite lines, but each word must be <50 charaters each

[glacial widget]

Nice

[valid ice]

20 lines, 50 chars per line

[iron jewel]

ohhhhhh

I undestand

[valid ice]

I've been asking for it to be extended since forever now...

[iron jewel]

1000 charaters isn't that bad

[valid ice]

It's not, but color codes take up a decent chunk of mine

Even if it were increased to like, 50 lines 50 chars I'd be happy

I just want a lil more

just a pinch of extra lore

[solar dagger]

Is there a way for me to check what script event is causing a lot of lag?

[wary edge]

Are you on pc?

[solar dagger]

Yes

[wary edge]

Use the script profiler

[solar dagger]

Is that an app or something?

[wary edge]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/documents/scriptdevelopertools?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable#using-the-minecraft-scripting-profiler

Or not...thanks slow internet

[solar dagger]

Okay thanks 👍

[pallid portal]

Is it possible to group custom components into one script file?

Say for example there is a block that does 3 things:

• it can be interacted with
• when placed, it does something every few ticks
• it does something when it is broken

Can you make a custom component where these 3 components are in the same script.
Or do you have to make a script for each component separately?

[wary edge]

By script you mean one block or do you mean one fileM

[pallid portal]

one block, 3 custom components.

[wary edge]

You should be able to

[subtle cove]

Did u try it?

[pallid portal]

Thanks.

I was not sure if one can.
Appreciate it.

[pale terrace]

how can I modify a projectile damage?

I want to make any projectile double its damage after a certain player action

[naive tinsel]

is there a limit to structure blocks saves

[pale terrace]

with world editors no, but there is a limit for generating them

[naive tinsel]

wym generating them

[pale terrace]

like you cant spawn an structure with a size of 1000 x 1000 xd

even if you use /structure load, will never load

and with world generation is worse, the limit is 48x48

[solar dagger]

anybody know why the item interaction is not working while riding the entity? it works when the player is not riding

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

world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.subscribe(
  ({ player, target, itemStack: item }) => {
    let event = system.run(() => {
      const isRiding =
        player.getComponent('minecraft:riding')?.entityRidingOn.target;
      if (isRiding) {
        const cooldownComp = item?.getComponent('minecraft:cooldown');
        if (item?.typeId === 'fs:melee_mm' && cooldownComp) {
          const remainingTime = cooldownComp.getCooldownTicksRemaining(player);
          if (remainingTime === 0) {
            cooldownComp.startCooldown(player);
            target.triggerEvent('fs:melee_ability');
            console.error(
              `${player.id} triggered the Melee Ability for ${target.typeId} Id: ${target.id}`
            );
          }
        }
      } else {
        console.error('Player is not riding target');
        system.clearRun(event);
      }
    });
  }
);

[wary edge]

Why did you just copy their message? @turbid oriole

[solar dagger]

xD

i was looking at it too

[turbid oriole]

Sssshhh

[wary edge]

Dont shush me

[wary edge]

Does any other event like player interact with block work?

[solar dagger]

i havent really tested that

[turbid oriole]

I'm not going to help you if you don't tell me what you're trying to do.

[solar dagger]

i have the console errors there :/

it explains itself really

it's just an interaction event bud, nothing huge

[wary edge]

@turbid orioleDude, don't be a dumbass please

[turbid oriole]

If it's not important, what are you doing here? Be more specific with your interaction, don't be a terrible software designer.

[turbid oriole]

Jaja 7w7 ups

[wary edge]

Anyways, @solar dagger could you try my suggestion? playerIntearctwith block? I have a feeling it might be the riding entity interfering since you said the event works if you're not riding an entity. Maybe also just put console.warn or sendMessage in the first line before the system.run?

[turbid oriole]

The Wei uses cooldownComp in the condition of an if, it is a component object.

When I did that by accident it failed me. It only works in case of undefined but I don't know how to declare true.

[solar dagger]

Yee I'll check it out later, a little busy rn with other stuff. I'll lyk if you'd like me to

[solar dagger]

An interactive action with an item while riding an entity. That's what I'm doing

[turbid oriole]

cooldownComp !== undefined.

[solar dagger]

Uh I really don't think that's the issue

But ok

[turbid oriole]

:v I haven't tried it completely but you're right.

When in doubt I retire to sleep.

[wary edge]

yeah pro tip...don't help someone if you yourself don't know it either

It's rather annoying

[turbid oriole]

XD I like to release my anger here.

[wary edge]

Please dont

This is my final warning

[turbid oriole]

Okay, I'm going to really help, what are considered entity interactions other than riding on them?

[turbid oriole]

🫂

I have to go do something, I'll be back with the answer.

[wise crown]

The rideable component has a rider_can_interact field that might be relevant here

[turbid oriole]

Review your code, I recommend using an afterEvent to avoid using a system.run and avoid using this line which I consider unnecessary: const isRiding = e.player.getComponent("minecraft:riding").entityRidingOn.target;

[wary edge]

What are you talking about?

[turbid oriole]

:v Of something that is not for you.

I'm not looking forward to it, that's life daddy.

[dusky cipher]
