Script API General

[wintry bane]

So where do I add it? the example doesn't say

also using "1.21.10" says it's out of range

im on stable version

[wary edge]

It...literally does

[wintry bane]

where

where do i put this

[cold grove]

Components, read the links

Where you think it will look prettier(?

[wintry bane]

Adding it shows this

[subtle cove]

did u do the scripting part?

[wintry bane]

yes

using the same format version shows this

[wary edge]

Use 1.20.80

[subtle cove]

hmm, its in preview

[wintry bane]

so not in the stable ver

[wary edge]

It is

[wintry bane]

the blocks work

[wary edge]

Jsut beta apis

[wintry bane]

is it on 12-beta or 13-beta?

[chrome flint]

did you managed to find what causes the problem?

you can't at the moment, but i think you can just edit lang files for script event command feedback

[acoustic basin]

oki

[glacial widget]

function Quest(player) {
  const chestui = new ChestFormData('9')
  .title('§l§d            Quests')
  .pattern([
    'xxExOxYxx'
], {
x:  { itemName: '', itemDesc: [], enchanted: false, stackAmount: 1, texture: 'minecraft:magenta_stained_glass' },
a:  { itemName: 'Anvil', itemDesc: [], enchanted: true, stackAmount: 16, texture: 'minecraft:anvil'},
O:  { itemName: '§l§4Kill quests', itemDesc: [], enchanted: true, stackAmount: 0, texture: 'textures/items/netherite_sword'},
E:  { itemName: '§l§bTime quests', itemDesc: [], enchanted: true, stackAmount: 0, texture: 'textures/items/clock_item'},
Y:  { itemName: '§l§jMining quests', itemDesc: [], enchanted: true, stackAmount: 0, texture: 'textures/items/iron_pickaxe'},  
})
  .show(player).then(response => {
      if (response.canceled) return;
      switch(response.selection) {
        
      }
  })

}

does anyone know how to get the selection from patterns?

[true isle]

It's in the components part. And that's a bug I get that too cuz hfc is still in it

[true isle]

Hfc still being there itl be taken our soon

[valid ice]

You can turn off HCF on a world using a third-party editor

[honest spear]

Well you should ask the owner of that lib

ChestFormData is not native form

[valid ice]

Selection for pattern works the same as regular form

[umbral scarab]

async function giveArmour(player) {
    const equipmentCompPlayer = player.getComponent(EntityComponentTypes.Equippable);
    const boots = equipmentCompPlayer.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Feet);
    const leggings = equipmentCompPlayer.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Legs);
    const chestplate = equipmentCompPlayer.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Chest);
    const helmet = equipmentCompPlayer.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Head);
    const dimension = player.dimension;
    const entity = dimension.getEntities({
       closest: 1
    });
    const equipmentCompPlayer2 = entity.getComponent(EntityComponentTypes.Equippable);
    equipmentCompPlayer2.setEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Feet, boots);
    equipmentCompPlayer2.setEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Legs, leggings);
    equipmentCompPlayer2.setEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Chest, chestplate);
    equipmentCompPlayer2.setEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Head, helmet);
}

I've got this error and not sure why

[valid ice]

Entity cannot get equipment component

[umbral scarab]

how would I go about giving the nearest entity to a player the armour that the player is wearing?

[valid ice]

only way atm is using something like replaceitem

[umbral scarab]

I tried doing that before but when getting the component for the armour on the player, the reference is an object which cant be used in the replaceitem command

[valid ice]

Can you show what you did?

[umbral scarab]

I don't have the exact code but if I remember correctly I didnt have any of the equipmentComp2 stuff and then just tried replaceitem command and using the variable helmet etc.

[valid ice]

ah, you'd need to replace on the item's typeId property- getEquipment() returns an ItemStack, which, when converted to a string (like most objects) it will show up as [object Object].

The typeId property returns a string which is the item ID, and can be used in the replaceitem command

[umbral scarab]

May I see an example?

[valid ice]

entity.runCommandAsync(`replaceitem entity @s slot.armor.feet 0 ${boots.typeId}`);

[umbral scarab]

ohh I see what you mean now, I'll give that a try and let you know how it goes

tyty

[umbral scarab]

async function giveArmour(player) {
    const equipmentCompPlayer = player.getComponent(EntityComponentTypes.Equippable);
    const boots = equipmentCompPlayer.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Feet);
    const leggings = equipmentCompPlayer.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Legs);
    const chestplate = equipmentCompPlayer.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Chest);
    const helmet = equipmentCompPlayer.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Head);
    const dimension = player.dimension;
    const entity = dimension.getEntities({
        closest: 1
    });
    entity.runCommandAsync(`replaceitem entity @s slot.armor.feet 0 ${boots.typeId}`);
    entity.runCommandAsync(`replaceitem entity @s slot.armor.legs 0 ${leggings.typeId}`);
    entity.runCommandAsync(`replaceitem entity @s slot.armor.chest 0 ${chestplate.typeId}`);
    entity.runCommandAsync(`replaceitem entity @s slot.armor.head 0 ${helmet.typeId}`);
}

I'm still getting the same error

[valid ice]

oh- getEntities also returns an array (even though you are using the closest property)

you can define entity as the first returned element by doing const [entity] = ...

using the closest property does also require a location to run off of

[umbral scarab]

yup that was a stupid error on my side there, should've saw that

location: player.location?

[valid ice]

If that's what you want, sure

Do note that the closest may be the player themselves, in that case

[umbral scarab]

I'll just add a family exclusion if thats the case 👍

got it working now thank you for the help!

[valid ice]

excellent!

[true isle]

Hfc is still in the game it still throws errors for it even if it's not activated

[valid ice]

If you version your block & items they should not throw errors

I do not use HCF, and none of my custom stuff throws errors

[true isle]

Yeah that's ehat I was getting. I fixed my items

[stone sage]

How should I go about doing this?

[simple zodiac]

you spawn the server like this

const serverProcess = spawn("./bedrock_server", { stdio: ["pipe", "pipe", "pipe"], cwd: "./server" })

then you just write into its console

serverProcess.stdin.write(command + "\n")

\n is just like an "enter"

and ofc you need to also log the std out with
serverProcess.stdout.on("data", (msg) => {...})

[stone sage]

im getting an error with spawn not being defined, is there something is there something i need to import into the script? or is there somewhere specific i need to put this?

[simple zodiac]

this is node just so you know

and yes

doesnt your editor autocomplete it tho?

import { spawn } from "child_process";

o

if you are just gonna use the /transfer command as an operator, so no scripts or anything you could also just set the op-permision-level to 4

[stone sage]

oh, i've just been using scripting from behavior packs
am i able to do it from there, or should i use node

[stone sage]

nope

[stone sage]

well i wanted it to run from a button in a menu

[simple zodiac]

yeh so this is kinda shit

so you need a parent process over bds that listens for http requests and then you send the command with the server-net module

if you don't know any of these thech then it might be difficult for you

[stone sage]

yeah im very new to all this stuff

would it be better to switch to using node for this to work

[simple zodiac]

you have to use both

look

our goal is to write a text into the servers console directly

[stone sage]

alright

should i like setup what you said with node and trigger the function with my previous scripting?

[simple zodiac]

you have to send a http request to the node process

[stone sage]

ill try to figure this part out on my own and if i cant figure it out ill come back

[viral plaza]

system.runInterval(() => {
  world.getPlayers().forEach(player => {
    if (player.hasTag("islandGen")) {
      const startLocation = getIslandData()
      startLocation.x += 100
      startLocation.z += 100
      let newLocation = startLocation
      setIslandData(newLocation)
      player.runCommand(`tickingarea add circle ${newLocation.x} ${newLocation.y} ${newLocation.z} 4 test`)
      system.runTimeout(() => {
        newLocation.y += 4
        world.getDimension("overworld").setBlockType(newLocation, "minecraft:dirt")
      }, 1)
      system.runTimeout(() => {
        player.teleport(newLocation);
        player.runCommandAsync(`tickingarea remove test`)
      }, 10)

    }
  })
}, 400)

So like the gen works, but it bugs out and errors like this, can anyone help? And also it’s suppose to be a structure, but not even a dirt block will work.

[inland merlin]

Hmm, hard to tell why it's saying chunk error, but I would make sure your coordinates show whole number no decimal

In case that's messing up the xyz

Almost seems like your tryn to access a different chunk some reason

[viral plaza]

I’m trying to generate the "islands" 100 x away and 100 z away every island

And it can’t be decimals

[inland merlin]

Maybe add a ticking area before generating those, and then remove the ticking area after

[viral plaza]

This does that

[inland merlin]

Oh lol didn't look there

One sec

Wish I was home on my pc to try this

[viral plaza]

I do everything on mobile

[inland merlin]

Geez

[viral plaza]

This didn’t take too long but still a pain I had to download and fix the extensions for each icon

[inland merlin]

Wow very nice

[viral plaza]

Thanks

[pliant bramble]

with the custom item components, is there a way to store data on a component? I would like to store some integer values that my script can use, and I cant seem to figure out if there is a way

[wary edge]

Wdym store data on the component?

[pliant bramble]

most components I see can store something, like "minecraft:max_stack_size", or the shooter component, and I would like to do something like that

[wary edge]

Ah so parameters

Unfortunately, there is no way currently. You can use tags like i did: https://github.com/SmokeyStack/adk-lib

[pliant bramble]

ah that sucks lol, thanks, I will have a look at that 👍

[past blaze]

How do I resolve the issue where beta server and server-ui modules aren't working together properly?

[wary edge]

In your package.json add an override key

[past blaze]

Oh shoot, I forgot about that

#1067535608660107284 message

[past blaze]

Thanks

[shy leaf]

which one is better in general, Date.now() or system.currentTick?

[subtle cove]

ms

curentTick is affected by game lag

[shy leaf]

gotcha

[shy leaf]

does runTimeout run exactly after 50 millisecond, or does it depend on server tick?

[wanton ocean]

 world.getPlayers().forEach(player => {
    player.addTag('${all_tags[world.getTimeOfDay()]}')
  })```
For some reason when I'm putting ('${all_tags[world.getTimeOfDay()]}'), the script stops working. It starts working again after specifically removing [world.getTimeOfDay], is there any reason for this? Also should I make a full post for this or not, I'm on the fence.

[valid ice]

It does depend on server latency, yeah

[shy leaf]

rip

i cant think of any other way to pass damage value from entityHurt to entityHitEntity

[valid ice]

Hmm

Why, may I ask?

[cinder shadow]

You can definitely store their health into a property and check for a change with an entityHitEntity event

[shy leaf]

i switched from currentTick to Date.now() and using a tick is unstable now

[valid ice]

Still confuzzled

[shy leaf]

basically uh

i have an entityHitEntity event that fires a function
and the function gets damage from entityHurt

it needs millisecond precision but

[shy leaf]

_ _

[valid ice]

Why is it that precise?

[shy leaf]

im making weapon cooldown (and bypassing iframes)

but uh

yeah, its buggy because of how tick works

[valid ice]

I always just recommend setting health directly for bypassing iframes

[shy leaf]

i do that too but

its not just about bypassing iframes, the weps have special abilities too

[shy leaf]

😔

or maybe... i could use async

[fallow rivet]

Is there a link where I can learn AddItem?

[shy leaf]

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server_1_11_0.ItemStack.html

[buoyant canopy]

that file has nothing to do with addons right?

[distant tulip]

no

[random flint]

try nesting the event?

entityHitEntity.subscribe()
let damage = 0;
entityHurt.subscribe() //get damage here
entityHurt.unsubscribe()

[shy leaf]

wouldnt that be laggy

just wondering

[random flint]

idk.

[shy leaf]

one way to find out

[random flint]

actually, I think it would be better with async yeah

[shy leaf]

last time i tried async there was noticable delay between the events

for some reason

[random flint]

let damage = await hurtDamage();

async function hurtDamage() //promise that returns the damage from entityHurt if it fires. Otherwise 0

[shy leaf]

oh yeah uh

i did a test with Date.now() to get the delay in setTimeout without delay defined and

it somehow returned 0 or 1ms

[random flint]

Intended design.

[shy leaf]

welp gonna use that

it works better than i thought

[random flint]

entityHurt called after the game checks for iframe and calculate the damage. But entityHitEntity can run straightaway because there's no other operation at that time frame

[shy leaf]

i always thought it was just because of event order

[random flint]

who knows. that was just my assumption. ^

[fallow rivet]

Does Additem work with TypeScript?

[wary edge]

Yeah

[fallow rivet]

"entry": "scripts/main.ts",

I did this and it gives an error

[granite badger]

you have to compile TS files to JS

[fallow rivet]

How?

Is there a video about this?

[wary edge]

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

[remote oyster]

It should say scripts/main.js.

You write the code in TS for development but compile it to JS for testing or distribution.

[fallow rivet]

Do I need to download an app to compile?

[random flint]

You know... you don't have to code in TypeScript just so you can make addons

[remote oyster]

No, VS Code is capable of compiling it. You just need a file called package.json which targets a set of dependencies needed for your build environment. Then executing npm i in the terminal from VS Code will grab those dependencies listed in the file.

[random flint]

how did it go from addItem() to TypeScript xd

[fallow rivet]

I write code with my phone

[fallow rivet]

.

[random flint]

same

i use plain js

[remote oyster]

In that case, stick with JS. You have very little resources available on Mobile to help manage a build environment constructed out of TS. What few methods are available may be too complex for you. I believe @woven loom has a post somewhere that does show how to develop using termux with straightforward instructions but I'm not able to find it at the moment.

[fallow rivet]

But I need to use addItem

[remote oyster]

You do not need TS to use Script API.

[fallow rivet]

But

[remote oyster]

TS is only a superset of JS.

[random flint]

What kind of "addItem" here lol

the method, or a custom function

[fallow rivet]

This is why I tried Ty

[fallow rivet]

.

[random flint]

addItem method from the Container class works with JS too

[fallow rivet]

Hmm ok

Is it possible for me to give an item with low durability with Additem?

[random flint]

For clarification, TypeScript is just modified JavaScript for development. It'll get compiled into plain efficient JS, so basically just JavaScript with extra steps

[fallow rivet]

I understand

[random flint]

Here's an example of using addItem() to give iron sword with its 40 of its durability used

const inv = player.getComponent("inventory").container;
const item = new ItemStack("minecraft:iron_sword",1);
const durability = item.getComponent("durability");
durability.damage = 40;
inv.addItem(item);

[fallow rivet]

Thanks

Can I ask for one more thing?

I need to add enchant to this too

[random flint]

Giving it unbreaking 3:

const enchantable = item.getComponent("enchantable");
enchantable.addEnchantment({
    level: 3,
    type: new EnchantmentType("unbreaking")
});

Edit: OH wait I did it with an s 💀 There, should be addEnchantment for single instance

[fallow rivet]

Thanks

[fallow rivet]

Do I need to addEnchantments when adding multiple enchant?

[subtle cove]

addEnchantments([
{},
{},
{}
])

[subtle cove]

import that EnchantmentType

[fallow rivet]

Ok

[celest fable]

can't you just

{
  type: "unbreaking",
  level: 3
}
```?

[fallow rivet]

Hm

[celest fable]

owh you can't

[fallow rivet]

What

[umbral scarab]

Does anyone know if its possible to disable trident riptide collisions?

[woven loom]

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1263468963694903336

[cold grove]

Maybe editing player.json

And triggering event in script

But, what are the conditions to assume that the player is flying with riptide? 🤔

[acoustic basin]

hey guys, is there a way i can make a structure generate in the world using structureManager just like with feature and feature rules?

i really need help on this one bcs im really new to structureManager and i want to understand how it works

[thorn flicker]

why do you want to do it in scripts

I mean there's probably a way but... I dont see the point if features are functional

[acoustic basin]

bcs my structure is really big, i think 50+ by 50+ blocks (x, z), and when it generates, it doesnt generate fully, even in i set "x": 0 and "z": 0 in feature rules, its still cut of

i think mmax structure size is 64 by 64, but my structure is smaller then these sizes, so its quite a problem for me

[thorn flicker]

I may have a solution.

[acoustic basin]

also, it generates under ground

[thorn flicker]

you can make a block/entity that gets placed and it spawns the structure instead.

so you could just use a single block feature.

[acoustic basin]

orrrr, use a command block with /structure command

[thorn flicker]

#1067869232395735130

[acoustic basin]

anyway, ive got a soultion, thank u

[thorn flicker]

oh.

and what is that solution?

[acoustic basin]

i mean, with the command block

[cold grove]

Is that bettet than natural generation? Natural generation also replace blocks

[acoustic basin]

instead of making custom block/entity, i'll just make it with command block

[cold grove]

I mean world generation*

[thorn flicker]

and how would you make the command block disappear

with the command block itself?

lol

[acoustic basin]

ye

[thorn flicker]

cool

[acoustic basin]

wait, i'll show u in dm

i'll make it rq

[thorn flicker]

I have an idea on how it will be

[thorn flicker]

alr

[fiery solar]

I've done this before, having the natural world generation create a structure with a command block that sends scriptevent namespace:structure structureName. Then respond to that scriptEvent by deleting the command block and placing a structure.

Only problem I ran into was that if the structure I wanted to generate was too big then I had to manage ticking areas and waiting for the whole area to load first.

But I think structureManager takes care of that for you now?

[cold grove]

Nope

Chunks need to be loaded too

It throws an error if you try to place a structure ouside the world boundaries

Please read the documentation https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/scriptapi/minecraft/server/structuremanager?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable#place

[fiery solar]

That's an entirely different situation. That error would get triggered if you tried to place a structure outside of the Y range of the dimension.

In fact, I just tested it and it does work correctly on unloaded chunks, as the npm type definitions say:

[cold grove]

Nice, thanks

[distant tulip]

that's interesting

maybe we can fill unloaded chunk with that

[solar dagger]

Looks like nobody read this before?

[prisma shard]

Is it possible to make a custom event with subscribe and unsubscribe methods?

[still rampart]

yes

things like that already exist, maybe take a look at them to see how they did it:https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1254305318196871269

Not work, why?

[flat dove]

Anyone here able to help me with my post?

new update has broken some things Im not quite sure on how I fix it

[remote oyster]

Check the variable st to see if it's defined after getting the dynamic property.

You can print it to console.

[glacial widget]

how do i fix items?

[solar dagger]

Anybody know how to get the dynamic property of an entity that died? Seems like there's no before world event for entity die...

[fallow rivet]

This is happening because no data is recorded. I don't know how to do this.

[wary edge]

Does the afterevent not work?

[solar dagger]

Well It looks like it can't read the entity's dynamic property after death

[remote oyster]

The entity has to be loaded.

[solar dagger]

I know that...

Im going for a different approach either way. So thanks for the 'help'

[remote oyster]

If loaded, it should have no issues reading the dynamic property. Could you explain in more detail or share some code?

[wary edge]

It would make sense though since the entiy not longer exists it frees up the proeprty

[remote oyster]

Which means the entity is not loaded.

[fallow rivet]

Help pls

[wary edge]

Yeah? Are you reading the same conversation as I am?

[remote oyster]

Then you need to find a point in your project where you set the dynamic property so that when you get it st will be defined.

[remote oyster]

Lol, about the dynamic property from NG_Web?

[wary edge]

Yes...they're trying to read it from a dead entity...which isnt loaded...which is why i said it frees up the property bc the entity no longer exists

[fallow rivet]

Can you give me a sample code please?

[remote oyster]

Yes, I was only reaffirming this because of what I said to the individual just before that.

[solar dagger]

Y'all are making it a bigger deal than it is, I was only asking for a different approach

🤦

[distant tulip]

what the point of tameable component if it get removed when the entity is tamed?

[wary edge]

To see the other things before its tamed

[distant tulip]

tamedToPlayerId
tamedToPlayer
is useless then?

[wary edge]

And isTamed

[distant tulip]

is this a bug?

[wary edge]

Works as intended since once its tamed you dont need that component anymore

[distant tulip]

so those should be moved to different component no?

Yep

[still torrent]

😦

[buoyant canopy]

what's the latest version of the stable api?

[wary edge]

1.13

[buoyant canopy]

thanks

[scarlet hemlock]

Guys, quick question. I'm new to Mc scripting, and I'm looking for a resource where I can see what are te current features in the latest stable API version. To be specific, I'm looking for a web to learn things like how to get the player's position in a specific moment, or how can I add/remove tags from items when used, and things like that. I mean, something that explains what can be done with scripts today. The documentation I've found in the MS Learn website wasn't that helpful. If you guys know anything else, please let me know

[honest spear]

@granite badger @obsidian coyote @honest spear How much examples do you have guys, Jayly are your examples online onbyour docs

[distant tulip]

you need to get started with script api first
once you do, all that stuff is as simple as
player.location
player.addTag("tag")
player.removeTag("tag")
there is a lot more then just that
assuming you have some JavaScript knowledge the wiki is a good place to start
https://wiki.bedrock.dev/scripting/script-modules.html
once you have basic idea on how to use script api you can check the docs for all the properties and functions and methods available
official docs:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/scriptapi/?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable
jayly docs (have more examples and easy to use):
https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/
stirante docs (have some stuff the other docs don't):
https://stirante.com/script/

[scarlet hemlock]

I found Jayly's website, which I think is clearer than the official documentation

[scarlet hemlock]

For instance, I knew about player.location, but I couldn't find anything related to it the official documentation

It may be there somewhere, but it isn't easy to find (at least not for me)

[distant tulip]

you are looking for a player property so you need to find the player class
all his properties and functions will be listed there

[alpine ibex]

const system = server.registerSystem(0, 0);

system.initialize = function() {
  this.registerEvent("minecraft:entity_started_riding", this.onPlayerLanded);
};

system.onPlayerLanded = function(eventData) {
  let player = eventData.entity;
  let playerPos = this.getComponent(player, "minecraft:position");
  let playerOnGround = this.getComponent(player, "minecraft:on_ground");

  if (playerOnGround.data) {
    // Player has landed on the ground
    this.broadcastEvent("minecraft:execute_command", "/function your_function_name_here");
  }
};

Can someone help me how to put this into JavaScript Import?

[scarlet hemlock]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/scriptapi/minecraft/server/player?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable#properties
I think that's the website for the player class, right? But I don't see any "location" property there

[distant tulip]

export function functionName(...args) {

  }
}

[scarlet hemlock]

I may be looking at the wrong place...

[fervent topaz]

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server_1_14_0_beta.Player.html#location

[scarlet hemlock]

Exactly. I couldn't find it on the official website, but I've found it on Jayly's site. That exactly what I was talking about with my first post

[distant tulip]

weird
maybe because of this?
entity class dose have it

[shy leaf]

if you cant find something in Player class, you should also look for Entity class

its usually there

[scarlet hemlock]

Idk. Maybe they just show you the property in one class, but if it's shared with another class, they won't repeat it. That might be the reason I found that website not so beginner friendly and started looking for another resources 😅

[distant tulip]

most of us don't use the official one for many reasons

[shy leaf]

what are the stuff that moved from preview to beta?

[scarlet hemlock]

Can relate

So Jayly's should be the one to go to

[distant tulip]

from beta to stable?

[shy leaf]

ig you could say that too

from preview to beta in stable

[true isle]

Read the changelog lol

[shy leaf]

i could but

[distant tulip]

i mean all the api preview stuff get to the stable beta api

[shy leaf]

just wanted to know specific stuff

but ehhhh fine ill check it

[true isle]

Lol

Lazy

[shy leaf]

😔

[distant tulip]

@shy leaf
potions api thing
removed old items from MinecraftItemTypes
added some other enums types
and a lot of stuff moved to stable

[shy leaf]

POTIONS

YESSSSSSSS

[distant tulip]

yep
and the ui lib 1.2.0 is stable now

[shy leaf]

[distant tulip]

sumonable wind charge

[shy leaf]

i love this update

[distant tulip]

and the camera orbit thing is no in the api

[shy leaf]

imma go try this NOW

[distant tulip]

alr have fun

[dawn zealot]

how do i convert this to scripts

[valid ice]

run_commands in entities can be moved to queue_command

works the same

[dawn zealot]

?

so the events still work?

[valid ice]

yes

[dawn zealot]

YESSSSSSS

[valid ice]

entities are not changed, besides run_command being remade into queue_command

[dawn zealot]

so liek this

like

[valid ice]

ye

[dawn zealot]

omfg i thought i was bouta go thru a midlife crisis

ive already had 1 of those today

[valid ice]

but I mean you could probably move whatever is activating those events to scripts anyways

[dawn zealot]

i know, but i want clicks to open npc's not punches

[valid ice]

entity interact event

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

[hardy rain]

didnt they remove it?

[valid ice]

no?

[hardy rain]

it doesnt work for me

but it did before the update

[sudden nest]

It exists in the documentation, but not in the WorldAfterEvents

Weird

[valid ice]

It's still a beta APIs thing

[sudden nest]

Oh

[hardy rain]

ah ok ty i used a stable version lol

[buoyant canopy]

@distant tulip we have got a problem....

getBlockFromViewDirection, gets the block from the view direction... not what block the player is aiming at.

[distant tulip]

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();
  }
}

[sudden nest]

What does this Unknown block during Deferred BlockDescriptir resolution error means?

[buoyant canopy]

that's not what I meant

[inland merlin]

Welp

[buoyant canopy]

i mean for mobile players, if they don't use cross hair, the block they are interacting with isn't the block they are facing

[inland merlin]

Yeah, hmm

[buoyant canopy]

so playerInteractWithBlock is still needed after all

[inland merlin]

Well, maybe that's on purpose? Use blockintwrqct at that point?

Oh lol you said it

View vs actual interaction

[distant tulip]

yeah
maybe make your own ray
from player head to the block location

nvm that won't get the exact face

hmm

itemUseOn is the only option i think

[valid ice]

if only getBlockFromCursorDirection()

[distant tulip]

if only interact with block stable
https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1016595573371064330.gif

[buoyant canopy]

that won't work and you know why

[distant tulip]

yeah

[buoyant canopy]

well, i guess i will sacrifice the mobile players

[valid ice]

I hate mobile too, dw

Separate UI
Bad cursor (see above)
Item use & block mine are same button

[distant tulip]

no swing on air

[buoyant canopy]

maybe a combination of both playerHitBlock and ItemUse will do the job?

but how do i get the event to not fire twice (because as Herobrine said, item use and block mine is the same button)

[distant tulip]

cooldown

[valid ice]

I was just referring to the fact that they can't "use" an item, it was a problem I ran into with my addon

Only works on the new controls

[buoyant canopy]

won't they fire at the exact same tick?

[distant tulip]

probably not
didn't run into that problem tbh

[buoyant canopy]

i mean for mobile players, if they start using the item they will also hit the block

[wary edge]

Force them to use split controls schema

[buoyant canopy]

settings isn't something you can change by addons

[wary edge]

Im aware

[distant tulip]

more like tell them to change it

[wary edge]

Did I say to use via addons? Im saying as a suggestion in your addon description or on player join, tell them to use split contrl

[buoyant canopy]

• I won't use split controls myself, it's horrible

[wary edge]

I love split controls, love the crosshoair

[buoyant canopy]

the cross hair is fine but the forced joystick instead of movement buttons is way too dangerous

[viscid horizon]

all my scripts are broken hip hip hooray

[random flint]

There's a toggle to activate split control without changing the movement method.

[cold sage]

could anyone tell me what this means?

[Scripting][error]-Plugin [Extended v0.1 - 1.0.0] - [main.js] ran with error: [SyntaxError: Could not find export 'BlockVolume' in module '@minecraft/server']

[cinder shadow]

It could not find the export BlockVolume in Minecraft/server

[random flint]

BlockVolume don't exist

in ur Minecraft/script version

[fleet pewter]

If you can't find something which you think should be there check the extends at the top of the docs. All entities have a location, so it's a shared property on entity rather than just being on player 😀

[cold sage]

idk what that means, I'm really new to scripting

[random flint]

The text: BlockVolume
inside your: import { world, BlockVolume } from "@minecraft/server";

[random flint]

You should learn basic JS first before doing ScriptAPI

understanding the error helps debug your codes

[dawn zealot]

how would i convert this command using the removal of hcf stuff because i dont understand the docs at all

[pale terrace]

what is waitTicks for and whats the difference with runTimeOut

[random flint]

is that block, item, or entity json?

[dawn zealot]

block json, i opened a post also

[granite badger]

use custom components https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/documents/customcomponents?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

[dawn zealot]

i stated in my post ive read the docs but still dont understand

[cold sage]

Where do you suggest I start?

[amber granite]

From
"modern JavaScript" website

[drifting raven]

Learn JavaScript

As the Script API is a framework built on JavaScript code, having an understanding of JavaScript is key.

If you are being shown this, then you most likely are a beginner with JS and could use a little guidance.

[shy leaf]

how do i use Difficulty enum?

[granite badger]

Currently theyre in here https://github.com/JaylyDev/ScriptAPI/tree/jayly/examples/examples. The workflows aren’t setup yet so it’s subject to change

[random flint]

Bro really ping himself

[amber granite]

GameModes

Import it from server module

And
GameModes.survival

Or idk

[shy leaf]

uh like

[amber granite]

They are just the survival type id

[shy leaf]

for checking (if difficulty) or whatever that

[amber granite]

On objects

[shy leaf]

also difficulty

not gamemode

[random flint]

Difficulty lol not Gamemode

[amber granite]

My bad

[amber granite]

Hmm , idk if that possible

I mean to detect teh difficulty

The only thing u can detect

If world is on hardCore mode

Or not

[amber granite]

Anyways

@shy leaf

U use them the same way

Difficulty.hard
Or
Difficulty.Hard

• one of them
  easy
  etc...

U import it

From server too

[random flint]

@shy leaf The only thing I found in the docs is to use an entity: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/reference/content/entityreference/examples/filters/is_difficulty?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

[amber granite]

import { Difficulty} from "@minecraft/server"

[random flint]

Do you even know what "Enum" are?

[amber granite]

Yes ,

[random flint]

ok

[amber granite]

My brain is on saving mode so

: P

I need to sleep anyways

nvm im stupid

[somber echo]

It is possible to obtain water or lava with getTopmostBlock?

[glacial widget]

do u love mc

[fallow rivet]

function createauction(player) {
const inventory = player.getComponent("minecraft:inventory").container;
const form = new ActionFormData()
form.title(`s Inventory`)
form.body("") 
form.button("§cBack")
for (let i = 0; i < inventory.size; i++) {
const item = inventory.getItem(i);           
if (item == undefined) continue
form.button(inventory.getItem(i)?.typeId + i)
}
form.show(player).then (result => {
      
if (result.selection === 0) {
auction(player)
}
if (result.selection !== 0) {
console.warn(inventory.getItem(result.selection-1)?.typeId)
}
});
}

Why is this happening?

[shy leaf]

content logs

[fallow rivet]

What

[shy leaf]

content logs?

the thing you turn on

for error logs

[shy leaf]

but from what i can see, continue is the issue here
its for loops

[glacial widget]

could someone help me with this

world.beforeEvents.playerBreakBlock.subscribe((e) =>{
    const {block, player, itemStack, } = e

    if(!player.hasTag("verify") || !player.hasTag("member")){
        e.cancel = true

        system.run(() =>{
            player.sendMessage(`your SMP >> §cyour currently a non verify member, so ask a admin or owner to be able to verify you`)
            player.playSound("random.break")
        })
    }
})

even though i have the member tag i cant do nothing?

[glacial widget]

he has them on

[fallow rivet]

The console message should say the name of the item I selected, but it says undefined

[shy leaf]

it checks "if the player does not have verify tag OR if the player does not have member tag"

[shy leaf]

my eyes saw the log appearing but my brain thought the content log was off 💀

whoopsie

[glacial widget]

i have the tag though

well the member one

[shy leaf]

whatcha trying though

[glacial widget]

if i add && then i would need both

[glacial widget]

players without those tags cant break nothing

very simple so idk why i am having problems

[shy leaf]

if (!(player.hasTag("verify") || player.hasTag("member"))```

[glacial widget]

oh

i thought you would need to add the ! on both statments

[shy leaf]

well youre using ||

[glacial widget]

true

[shy leaf]

you want it to check if the player doesnt have any of those tags, right?

[glacial widget]

yes

[shy leaf]

|| returns true if any check inside is passed, and ! reverses that

[shy leaf]

so this returns true if the player does not have verify or member tag

if the player has any of those, it returns false

[glacial widget]

i understand now

thanks for breaking it down for me

[shy leaf]

cheers

[remote oyster]

Returns true if they don't have verify or if they have member. The second condition isn't negated with !

[shy leaf]

its wrapped up with ()

[remote oyster]

Doesn't matter

Oh wait

[shy leaf]

What

[remote oyster]

My bad

I didn't see it lol

[shy leaf]

understandable

[remote oyster]

Snuck past me haha

I would probably write it like this since it would be easier to read, but this is purely a preference here.

if (!player.hasTag("verify") && !player.hasTag("member")) {

};

[shy leaf]

thats better

[remote oyster]

Less operations also. The other one would have to check both conditions before determining if ! returned the condition to be met. That one checks for one, and if it doesn't exist then it just stops and moves on. The second condition won't be looked at unless the first one returns true (that is, they don't have it).

[fallow rivet]

.

Help pls

[remote oyster]

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Your code looks fine. Could be an issue related to the function you are calling.

[fallow rivet]

The console message should say the name of the item I selected.

[remote oyster]

Why are you subtracting 1 from result.selection

Remove it.

[fallow rivet]

Because there is a button called back

[remote oyster]

1 or 0 I presume so let's assume it's 1. You are targeting 0 because you are checking for (1 - 1).

[fallow rivet]

Yea

[remote oyster]

But 0 isn't what you selected. You selected 1 in that example so why would you check 0.

Does that make sense?

[fallow rivet]

for (let i = 0; i < inventory.size; i++) {
Here i is the slot of the player's item

[remote oyster]

I'm talking about the line where you print console.warn().

Remove -1 from result.selection and see what it does.

[fallow rivet]

function createauction(player) {
const inventory = player.getComponent("minecraft:inventory").container;
const form = new ActionFormData()
form.title(`s Inventory`)
form.body("") 
form.button("§cBack")
for (let i = 0; i < inventory.size; i++) {
const item = inventory.getItem(i);           
if (item == undefined) continue
form.button(inventory.getItem(i)?.typeId + i)
}
form.show(player).then (result => {
      
if (result.selection === 0) {
auction(player)
}
if (result.selection !== 0) {
console.warn(inventory.getItem(result.selection)?.typeId)
}
});
}

[remote oyster]

function createauction(player) {
    const inventory = player.getComponent("minecraft:inventory").container;
    const form = new ActionFormData();
    form.title(`${player.name}'s Inventory`);
    form.body("");
    form.button("§cBack");
    
    const itemButtonMap = []; // Array to map buttons to inventory indices
    
    for (let i = 0; i < inventory.size; i++) {
        const item = inventory.getItem(i);           
        if (item == undefined) continue;
        
        form.button(`${item.typeId} ${i}`);
        itemButtonMap.push(i); // Store the inventory index for this button
    }
    
    form.show(player).then(result => {
        if (result.selection === 0) {
            auction(player);
        } else if (result.selection > 0) {
            const inventoryIndex = itemButtonMap[result.selection - 1]; // Adjust index
            const selectedItem = inventory.getItem(inventoryIndex);
            console.warn(selectedItem?.typeId);
        }
    });
}

That should work now that I see what you are actually trying to do.

[fallow rivet]

Work

Thanks

[glacial widget]

why am i getting a error from this

world.beforeEvents.itemUse.subscribe((e) =>{
    let {source, itemStack} = e

    if(source.hasTag("mod") && itemStack.typeId === "minecraft:totem_of_undying"){
        source.sendMessage(`§l§dyour SMP >> §aWelcome staff member`)
        verifyMenu(source)
    } else {
        source.sendMessage(`§l§dyour SMP >> §cYou do not have access to staff tools`)
    }

})

function verifyMenu(player){
    const menu = new ModalFormData()
    .title("Enter players name for verify")
    .dropdown("Players")
    .submitButton("submit")
    menu.show(player).then(e =>{
    })
}

[distant tulip]

what error

[glacial widget]

nvm i did the .dropdown wrong

[fallow rivet]

What exactly do you want to do with dropdown?

[glacial widget]

i wanted to get all players name

but i fixed it

[fallow rivet]

Ok

1 sec

[glacial widget]

i fixed it

[fallow rivet]

function verifyMenu(player){
let playerNameList = Array.from(world.getPlayers(), plr => plr.nameTag);
    const menu = new ModalFormData()
    .title("Enter players name for verify")
    .dropdown("Players", playerNameList);
    .submitButton("submit")
    menu.show(player).then(e =>{
    })
}

Try this

[glacial widget]

i did

const players = Array.from(world.getPlayers());
    const playerNames = players.map(p => p.name);

[fallow rivet]

Was this in your code?

[glacial widget]

yh

[fallow rivet]

Then all you have to do is this

.dropdown("Players", playerNames);

[shy leaf]

are blocks typeid and item typeid usually the same?

[fallow rivet]

Both of them have minecraft: at the beginning

[shy leaf]

not the namespace

like cobblestone item and cobblestone block

those are same

but im not sure about other things

[fallow rivet]

Probably not

[shy leaf]

hmmmm

[fallow rivet]

@shy leaf

[shy leaf]

hello

[fallow rivet]

Minecraft:daylight_dedector
Daylight sensor

[shy leaf]

might as well just use getItemStack

[cold grove]

You dont need array.from lol

[glacial widget]

why

[glacial widget]

is that goodie?

[shy leaf]

thats Spy

[cold grove]

It doenst do nothing in this case

[shy leaf]

from TF2

[cold grove]

Array.from copies the array, you will use it in very specific cases

But this is not one

[shy leaf]

cant you just do

world.getAllPlayers().forEach(p => {
    //code
});```

oh wait

player names

🗿 nvm

[cold grove]

Is the same anyways

[chrome flint]

hey, does everthing moved to stable?

there we go

[chilly moth]

@rigid torrent

[rigid torrent]

That’s me

[chilly moth]

the template of log doest work properly

it doest allow log to be placed on each other

[rigid torrent]

That’s a custom components issue

I thought it would be fixed on this update 🤔

Well yeah, that’s not an issue in the template

When Mojang fixes it, the template will automatically be fixed too

[chilly moth]

ok

do you have a sapling template

[rigid torrent]

You can, however, fix it yourself by cancelling the interaction and place the block instead

[rigid torrent]

No, all of my templates are on my repo

[chilly moth]

hm

[chilly moth]

which interaction

also "tag:wood": {},
how does it work

[rigid torrent]

The one that triggers incorrectly

[chilly moth]

no error in log

[rigid torrent]

That’s just to identify the block as a wood, you can call it whatever

[rigid torrent]

Because is not an error of the code

[chilly moth]

do I need component for chopping speed etc

for custom blocks

[rigid torrent]

I don’t quite understand

[chilly moth]

like mining speed

almost all axe work at same speed

also the leaves template works as a solid block when placed of water it cancels the water source

[rigid torrent]

You can change mining speed at your own liking

[rigid torrent]

We don’t have a proper way to waterlog blocks yet, so that’s intended

[amber granite]

remember:

! ( X && Y ) == !X || !Y
! ( X || Y ) == !X && !Y

@glacial widget

Change it to :

if ( ! ( X || Y ) ) {
}

[glacial widget]

yeah i did that and it worked

can i ask a silly question about js?

[oak lynx]

I must be blind cuz i can't find custom entity components docs

[granite badger]

there isn’t such thing

[wary edge]

Yes

https://stirante.com/script/server/1.13.0/classes/DataDrivenEntityTriggerAfterEvent.html

[oak lynx]

I thought they did something to datadriven stuff or was that just blocks and items (or maybe i just misremember stuff)

[fallow rivet]

getComponent("durability").damage;

By using this, I can find out how much damage the item has taken, but is it possible to find out the max durability of the item?

Yes, read the docs

Any chance you can post a link?

where is the docs for minecraft:tick?

[remote oyster]

I don't see it. Just tick_world.

👀

[grave thistle]

Is there an equivalent of getItemStack but for entities? I want to save all the data of an entity to be able to spawn another of the exact type (name, HP, inventory, etc.).

[hardy tusk]

Idk how good you are with programming but everything is object oriented, so the players position will be on a Player object class. Then you need to get that player, but more on that later.

2nd thing we have events for basicly everything that changes within the world. If theres no event for something theres probably no way to handle it.
Theres events for things like blocks being changed, and interacts where player clicks a block or entity with left or right click. Usually everything leftclick has 'hit' in it. And then theres more events but thats rather straightforward once u look at them

3rd thing is actually interacting with the world itself. This is either done by interacting with the global 'world' (which you can import) or on the respective Dimension class (you can get that through the world object or on any entity the dimension property)
On here you can change blocks, run commands, teleport and change, get entities and so much more. Everything you want to do to something you do it on its entity object, sometimes theres universal functions for all of them, but uncommonly so youll have to loop through all entities

I think this should be sufficient to get you going 🙂

[distant tulip]

hes questions has been answered already

[grave thistle]

Also, what's the difference between a property and a dynamic property?

[hardy tusk]

And thats because Player actually inherits all properties and functions from entity, for some reason all those functions are never listed in player themself. In that case you might need to go to the top of the page where it links the classes for inheritance

[distant tulip]

no
you need to go through all those and map them to an object

[random flint]

save them into a structure then load them 🥴

[hardy tusk]

Im not trying to catch a fish for him, Im trying to teach him how to catch fish on his own. That was my try at that

And the responses he got whree the first thing imo

[distant tulip]

🤨

[hardy tusk]

Thats a metaphor

[amber granite]

So u wanna an event to detect fishing ?

[hardy tusk]

Very different actually. A property likely refers to the javascript property, here, every member of an object is a property. So player.location is a property and in player.location.x, x is the property of location and location is the property of player.

[amber granite]

He means
entity.getProprety()

Na d
entity.getDynamicProprety()

[sudden nest]

Is entity property defined in entity still not removed?

[amber granite]

XD , bro was gonna explain oop for him

[sudden nest]

Like from the bee? Or wait imma read what entity perms first, me is confused

[distant tulip]

properties are from the entity json file
you can't add properties or remove them and the data need to follow the range the property have
dynamic properties dose not have anything to do with the entity json
you can save dynamic properties to the world or entities or unstackable items
the data type is either number vector3 string or boolean, they are unlimited but each dynamic property can only store 32k bit

[random flint]

• property (JSON) = Needs to be defined within the entity JSON. Accessible with Molang. Universally accessible by all packs. Has 1 tick delay for property update.

• property (JS) = see #1067535608660107284 message (Does not save values across game session)

• dynamicProperty = Created by ScriptAPI. Can only be accessed by ScriptAPI. Have more flexibility for storing values. Can be used even in beforeEvents. Updates instantly in that same game tick. Less possibility of conflicts with another pack.

[spare fox]

odd

[hardy tusk]

Dynamic properties on the other hand are a way to permanently store information on the player or whatever. You see we basicly get an disguised object, when we are dealing with the player class e.g. thats just a representation of the player from the actual internal minecraft player class. So you would be able save data by doing something like player.jumpscareCount, but you cant because the player object is kind of not a real thing, and even then it would only temporarely save and when you close the game, all the info will be gone.

Dynamic properties store all the data indefinetly on that thing you tried to set it on.
@grave thistle
And then there are actor properties, who are actually more connected to animations and the entity.json files, basicly a way to store info when dealing with entities in animations and entities

[grave thistle]

Thanks for all the replies. I've used dynamic properties a lot, just never normal properties

[valid ice]

They're useful for communication between the resource pack & the server

[random flint]

Can the same DynamicProperty be accessed from a different pack? Or it's exclusively unique for each pack?

[amber granite]

No

It s on the pack uuid

Saved on it

[distant tulip]

Saved on it? no
uuid is just a "reference"

[sudden nest]

Can't wait other peps showcase their projects or addons using scripts and stuffs with scripting api being stable

[devout dune]

Helllooo, are the block components. on_placed, on_player_place etc, deprecated, are they entirely replaced with cusotm components?

[frozen vine]

I created a block that when I interact with it, it makes an event, but how do I make it work without caring about the item I have in my hand? I put undefined but it only works when I have an empty hand.

@granite badger any chance you can just make this a drop down or smthng. It is quiet big

just don't check the item

in this case instead of putting undefined keep it empty?

[hoary coral]

I think you have something like

if(item...) {
  // code

just do it

Can I just use 'invisibility' for .addEffect or do I actually need to import the minecraft effects list?

Also, is there a way to register multiple item custom components in one function?

[remote oyster]

You can use invisibility. It accepts strings.

[forest loom]

Figured as much, just making sure

[devout dune]

Hey I may be missing something simple, but how can i set a block property? So that my block permutation can change states based on that property. Nothing like block.SetProperty exists right now /if ever?

[wary edge]

Use block permutation

[open urchin]

block.setPermutation(
  block.permutation.withState("state:name", value)
)```

[devout dune]

Cool thank ya, how about if i want to GET a property / current state?

[open urchin]

block.permutation.getState("state:name")

[buoyant canopy]

can we get the equipment of an armor stand? this doesn't work on armor stands for some reason js const head = entity.getComponent('minecraft:equippable').getEquipment('Head')

it works on the player tho

[keen gull]

Guys is custum components for items like for replacing on_use broken or somthing on 1.21.20 version? Bc as i got informed this update have lot of bugs and problems

[distant tulip]

getEquipment don't work on entities

[devout dune]

Hey so im trying to pass the players rotation to a block, via molang. instead of script. if possible.

Getting the state isnt quite working yet.

    // Precise rotation of block when placed on `up` face
    "wiki:rotation": {
      "values": { "min": 0, "max": 15 } // An alternative property value syntax to define larger integer ranges easily
    }
  }

Basically I would like to call an event, which sets a property, based on the players rotation, through molang. like so:

  "wiki:set_rotation": {
    "set_block_property": {
      // Now use the long Molang expression from before to set the rotation property
      "wiki:rotation": "q.block_face == 1 ? { t.positive_head_rot = q.head_y_rotation(0) + 360 * (q.head_y_rotation(0) != math.abs(q.head_y_rotation(0))); t.block_rotation = math.round(t.positive_head_rot / 22.5); return t.block_rotation != 16 ? t.block_rotation; };"
    }
  }```

Because I have permutations that are reading this value. and changing locations. 

```  {
    "condition": "q.block_property('wiki:rotation') >= 4 || q.block_property('minecraft:block_face') == 'east'",
    "components": {
      "minecraft:transformation": { "rotation": [0, -90, 0] }
    }
  }

But as we do not have access to block 'events' anymore, and theyve been replaced by customComponents.
I have grabbed my block via the custom_component on_Place.
From here, since I have my block, i would like to simply fire an event, to set the players rotation. based on the molang, from above.

Am i able to somehow do this? I would just like to calculate players rotation, via molang, and set the rotation STATE with this value.

@wary edge 😄

[grave nebula]

why is bro pinging randoms

[devout dune]

Hes admin and he helps almost every time lol

[distant tulip]

also off-topic

[wary edge]

Is this from the precise rotation?

[grave nebula]

ik im saying ive seen people complain about getting pinged for helping instead of just asking ^^

[devout dune]

im usign custom components, its not off topic

[devout dune]

Id like to rgab it using molang if possible, seems easier than the scripting since its already there, and we just had access with events

[wary edge]

You'll have to check the hcf-rewrite branch on the wiki github for now while we're attempting to merge it to the main site

[willow gazelle]

There is no tool to directly translate from Holiday features to scripting?

[buoyant canopy]

i forgot about that 🤦‍♂️ is there a workaround?

[distant tulip]

@devout dune

world.afterEvents.playerPlaceBlock.subscribe((event) => {
  const {player,block} = event
  const {y} = player.getRotation()
  const face = block.permutation.getState("minecraft:block_face")
  if(block.permutation.getState("mba:head_rotation") === undefined) return
  if(face == "up"){    
    let rot = y + 360*(y!=Math.abs(y))
    rot = Math.round(rot/22.5)
    rot = rot!=16?rot:0
    block.setPermutation(block.permutation.withState("mba:head_rotation",rot));
  }
  block.setPermutation(block.permutation.withState("mba:show_head",true));
});

this what i am using in my head addon
(not using custom component sense i am supporting old version, you can easily switch to them)

[distant tulip]

depend
what are you trying to do

[buoyant canopy]

i think i can edit the armor stand file and make send script event message, but can we setEquipment for armor stands?

[distant tulip]

with commands

replaceitem

[buoyant canopy]

yeah, so setEquipment doesn't work as well

[distant tulip]

i think?

[buoyant canopy]

one second

[distant tulip]

alr

[buoyant canopy]

yeah, it doesn't

i guess i will resort to a scriptevent then

[distant tulip]

yeah

both detecting an item and replacing it can be done with commands

[buoyant canopy]

i am converting an entity event that turns zombie heads on armor stands into player heads when they are struck with lightning into a script

[buoyant canopy]

wait, can we detect it with commands?

[distant tulip]

that doesn't kill the armor stand?

[distant tulip]

testfor command with hasitem property

[buoyant canopy]

it does when it's a direct hit, not if i hit a lightning rod adjacent to it

[buoyant canopy]

oh right! but is it sensitive for data values?

[distant tulip]

there is amount and slot and data and location parameters

[buoyant canopy]

fantastic

[devout dune]

Thanks! No way to trigger block event via script?

[distant tulip]

directly? no

[median stream]

Is there a way we could access a pet's owner info like playerName in scripting?

I'm trying to restrict a horse from being used by others except the owner.

[buoyant canopy]

you can using EntityIsTamedComponent

-# that don't work too

tameable component get removed on tame

What version is block.getRedstonePower in now? I'm trying 1.14.0-beta and I'm getting a "not a function" error

[wary edge]

https://stirante.com/script/server/1.15.0-beta.1.21.30-preview.22/classes/Block.html#getRedstonePower

[ebon niche]

Ah, thanks

Uhh, it's saying 1.15.0-beta isn't a valid version? this is strange, as getRedstonePower was available in 1.13.0-beta before, so I would've assumed it would have been moved to a version of the beta available outside of the preview edition

[wary edge]

Inventory works but that doesnt include equopment

it really isnt in this case

[pale terrace]

When teleporting an entity using teleport, is it possible to disable the smoothing on the entity's position when changing position?

[dense skiff]

Is there a way for two packs on the same world to communicate? I was thinking dynamic properties but I'm pretty sure those are per-pack, arent they?

[valid ice]

They are per-pack, yes. You could use scoreboards, I guess.

[dense skiff]

Hmm

[valid ice]

You could try doing something like player.__testValue = true and reading that in the other pack?

[dense skiff]

Like extending the player class?

[valid ice]

I guess, yes.

[dense skiff]

That's an interesting thought

[valid ice]

Just doing this, although it has no type definitions, is valid. I do it all the time in my packs for minor data passing.

[dense skiff]

Do you have an example?

[valid ice]

if ((player.__tempCooldown ?? 0) > Date.now())  return;
player.__tempCooldown = Date.now() + 500; //Half a second of delay

[dense skiff]

Thanks. Will give it a shot when I decide make this change to my project

[valid ice]

Mind you, idk if it can pass data between packs, but it's worth a shot

[dense skiff]

Yep

I can't remove block when it reaches 600 ticks from my block

import {

world.beforeEvents.worldInitialize.subscribe(event => {
  event.blockComponentRegistry.registerCustomComponent("blc:dano_de_sangue", {
      onStepOn: event => {
        event.entity.runCommandAsync(`damage @s[family=player] 10 self_destruct`)
      },
      onTick: ev => {
        ev.block.runCommand(`setblock ~~~ bone_block`)
      }
  });
});

[cinder shadow]

How is it reaching 600 ticks

Any errors?

[cinder shadow]

Check your runCommand, its different from the other one you specified

[hoary coral]

wouldn't it be ev.block.dimension.runCommand?

[fallen hearth]

it is not giving an error, but the block is not being replaced

[hoary coral]

use ```
${ev.block.location.x} ${ev.block.location.y} ${ev.block.location.z}

instead of `~~~`

[fallen hearth]

nice!

thankys

[valid ice]

can also do ev.block.setType('minecraft:bone_block')

[granite badger]

I will prioritise and try to change this.

[fallen hearth]

My block stopped working, can anyone help me? The log doesn't say what the error is

its working fine now idk what was the problem

[sudden nest]

sorry for pinging @wary edge, I have a question, what's the purpose of separating the anvil into 3 different blocks?

Since setblock command for anvil is now separated with 3 different anvil type blocks, and it removed the damage and direction for BlockState argument.

when you enter this unfinished command setblock ~~~ anvil [

it shows the available blockstate, which is only minecraft:cardinal_direction, and the other blockstate was "removed", although if you type ["damage"= you can still see available values for the damage blockstate.

idk if this was intended or not.

[valid ice]

Purpose was java parity, iirc. They have separate blocks for anvil states (who knows why)

[thorn flicker]

so when you break them you dont get a fixed anvil

thats my guess

[valid ice]

I'll take your word for that one lol

[sudden nest]

i mean if they want it that way, they could've removed the other blockstate arguments functionality from the command, and BlockPermutation from the script api. 🤷‍♂️

[grave nebula]

Just shows undefined.

[valid ice]

I have never tried that on world before, just on entity/plauer

[dense skiff]

I mean i'll give it a try on player too but I don't think itll be different

Does that mean the world objects are different for each pack?

[distant tulip]

use tags or scoreboard database

[granite badger]

Does that mean the world objects are different for each pack?
definitely, each pack has its own environment

[distant tulip]

must be
that can break a lot of stuff

[dense skiff]

need some good IPC (inter-PACK communication hahah) here lol

Ik tags and scoreboards

[granite badger]

that's a good one actually

Why does it not work?

Everything works but enchant doesn't work

if it's not enchanting the item, try this. I haven't tested it in-game

try this

this is the exact same script lol

removing the variables won't change anything

[distant gulch]

btw use this to create enchantments @fallow rivet

    };

    return {
        type: enchantmentType,
        level: level

};

just input type and level, will throw errors on invalid values

btw gtg, maybe jayly or some of the other users can help you, good luck

According to official information from Mojang, the Holiday Creator feature will be officially discontinued in version 1.21.20 (or later versions), and triggers such as block or entity will be replaced by JavaScript. I have a question: Will entity models or block models still be kept in JSON format, or will they also be replaced by JavaScript? If they are replaced by scripts, how will the models work?

[granite badger]

mojang discontinued HCF for a better replacement because they were accessible via experiments toggle only. models are stable already so there won’t be changes

Can you post this problem as a post in scripting api channel? Or is this resolved?

[distant tulip]

what version did fix the ModalFormData scroll bar starting from the bottom?

[celest fable]

umm, its the server_form.json isn't? not the script?

[distant tulip]

not really sure
as far as i know that is not something json ui can control?

[celest fable]

yes it is, the script is just like the thing what to show and json ui is how it shows

[distant tulip]

i know it is not from the script
there is no property to control it
either it is hard coded or i am messing something

[celest fable]

maybe you actually can, just need to make the thing inside the form less

@valid ice how do i use createPotion for itemStack

[devout dune]

Does anyone know why my custom component is not registering?

[valid ice]

excellentquestion

[cinder shadow]

what even is this

[devout dune]

custom components?

they are replacing block "events" and generic built in components like "on_player_placed"

[cinder shadow]

yeah but

[random flint]

I like how beforeEvent playerPlaceBlock is beta, while the custom component for block: beforePlayerPlaceOn is stable.

[devout dune]

anyone know why mine is not registering? did i set it up wrong

[deep plank]

They forgor to release it out of the beta💀

[granite badger]

my docs has examples there https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server_1_14_0_beta.ItemStack.html#createPotion

@distant tulip

[devout dune]

My log did not seem to fire at all. So worldInitialize is doing nothing rn? do i need to be in a different version..

[shy leaf]

o yea no nvm it doesnt have effect part

the id for effects arent working

i think its different for createPotion

[granite badger]

they don’t use ids, again check examples (they’re hidden)

[random flint]

is the class even being created in the first place?

[shy leaf]

whar

[devout dune]

Yes sirrrr, the events im subscribing to right above it are working fine

[shy leaf]

Oh bruh

you have to import it

[random flint]

"When" and "where" did you call it

beforeEvent worldInitialize needs to be called before the world loads. So subscribing in afterEvents scopes isn't an option

[fallow rivet]

[valid ice]

Please don't fish for help in other channels.

[fallow rivet]

Sorry

[devout dune]

my main ^Here is my main.js. simply creating an instance of another class. and invoking its initmethod.

Here is the constructor of the instance.

[random flint]

here's the issue: system.run() made it run the entire thing in the afterEvents scope. (basically waits for a tick)

At that point in time, beforeEvent - worldInitialize won't fire again. So subscribing after it won't do anything.

[devout dune]

So i either need to subscribe, before system.run?
Or maybe something like this?

[shy leaf]

where tf is the full list of potion effect types

what is wrong with mojang

jeez

[random flint]

don't use system.run()
simple as that.

[devout dune]

replacing this with just
'main()' wont absolutely break everything?
Isnt the point of system.run, to run logic on the server?

[amber granite]

☠️

There is no main in js

[random flint]

Yes? But it isn't necessary.

You can run the function without system.run

[devout dune]

wat..

[devout dune]

tyty

[amber granite]

The main function

Of other programing languages

Isn't available

In js

U just write ur code

[devout dune]

im confused, its a custom name

[amber granite]

Oh ☠️

[devout dune]

lmaoo

[amber granite]

I thought u are java or cpp developer who wants to write script api ☠️

[random flint]

Other programming languages usually have this function called main that would be called for the first time ig

[devout dune]

tbh i have no idea what im doing, hense why im in the discord everyday lmaoo

[devout dune]

yea got it ty!

[devout dune]

hey so im not sure yet if our system.run implementation is necessary (there are others working on the scripts) so id rather keep it as is, if possible.

Is there any other way to subscribe to beforeEvents.worldInitialize. With the current implementation?
for example, in another class, i am subbing to a beforeEvent. but then im firing system.run on the method. in order for it to validate.

If not, I can try to refactor to not use system.run! Just not 100% confident with it yet

[random flint]

The reason why the other works within system.run is because they don't immediately run, and can fires multiple times.

However, beforeEvent worldInitialize only run once, and you can't delay it even a single tick.

Yes, you can still use system.run to exit the beforeEvent/read-only scope. Just specifically, don't use it to delay worldInitialize beforeEvent.

[devout dune]

okay ty, im understanding better. just not sure what you mean by, use system.run to EXIT the before event

I tried this

but this is obviously delaying it?

[random flint]

Yes, that's delaying the worldInitialize

though, you can add the other event listener inside the system.run

[devout dune]

and this constructor is called during the first system.run call. here:

[random flint]

That's the second delay.

So around 2 game-tick

[devout dune]

so what exactly do you suggest, instead of this

    system.run(() => {
      world.beforeEvents.worldInitialize.subscribe(e => {
        console.warn("Registering custom component for placing corner light");
        e.blockComponentRegistry.registerCustomComponent("ts_ml:on_placed", { onPlace: this.placeCornerLight });
      });
    });```

[random flint]

I'll say it clearly, put world.beforeEvents.worldInitialize outside any system.run()

[devout dune]

Unfortunately i need it that clearly for now lmao.
I appreciate the help.

[random flint]

why? Is it because you need to wait for the creation of the subclasses?

[devout dune]

Ill do some more digging and get back to you. I wasnt the one who implemented the initiation of classes, after system.run. And im not 100% sure yet what its been meant for

[random flint]

Technically, your code would still work even without the system.run

[devout dune]

Yea i figured, not sure why exactly its been in place. I feel like we did have a reason. Maybe we needed the delay

[random flint]

Well, that makes sense, while working on a team sometimes someone forgets to check if it runs or breaks the previous code. xd

Anyway, I'm gone for the next 6 hours. Gotta sleep in my time zone.

[devout dune]

kk thank ya dude, ill dabble with it!

[random flint]

Quick Note: Using system.run() makes you exit the "read-only" state. Within the "read-only" scope (beforeEvents listener), you can only retrieve and get values but are unable to modify the world. For example, using Entity.kill() would throw an error in the "read-only" state. Using system.run allows you to avoid this kind of thing. So, yes, system.run has its own merits.
