Script API General

[subtle cove]

if (item9?.typeId === "minecraft:stick") {
  item9.nameTag = "f"
  inv.setItem(9, item9)
}```

[untold magnet]

getItem(9).amount -= 1 isn't working
i tried inv.getSlot(9).amount -= 1 and it works
should i do it like this inv.getSlot(9).nameTag = 'f'?

[subtle cove]

const item9 = inv.getSlot(9)
if (item9.hasItem() && item9.typeId === "minecraft:stick") item9.nameTag = "f"

[untold magnet]

it works with getSlot

alright, i can work now

[sage portal]

does the BlockComponentStepOnEvent work for non-collision blocks that you walk through? I not, how can you detect if a players walks through a non-collision block?

[subtle cove]

usingonTick to detect player entity inside the block...

[buoyant canopy]

if i move the structures into a subfolder of the structures folder, do i need to change something in the structure manager code?

[subtle cove]

filename is allu need

[buoyant canopy]

great

[supple yoke]

bruh

just deleted a week worth of work

fml

the built product is still here

that's good

should have made a GitHub repo

it took the git folder with it 😭

fuck you neotree

welp take it as a opportunity to refactor

[lyric kestrel]

What were you working on?

[digital swallow]

How do I give a wolf armor through scripts? Wolves seem to not have an Equippable component, so I can't use setEquipment like I can with players?

Like, if I get the "equippable" component of a wolf, it's just undefined

Wolves do equip armor to a "slot.armor.chest" though, so this is very bizzare

Ok, so you can just tag the wolf when you spawn it with scripts, and then give the wolf armor based on the tag with the replaceitem command, but it feels wrong lol

[distant tulip]

just use the command directly from the script?

[digital swallow]

yeah that's what I did, sorry, I just like to avoid using commands in scripts if I can

[distant tulip]

alr

[solar dagger]

Im trying to make a leveling system for a tame, i wanted to know what would be the best way to get kill xp with .applyDamage()? Basically the player will ride this tame and level it up by doing certain tasks, killing a mob is one of them.

[autumn kraken]

Hey guys. Just wanted to let you know that today is my last day at Mojang. It was a blast engaging with this community and working together to build the new scripting system and APIs. Can't wait to see all the awesome things you make in the future.

[granite badger]

Thank you memcpy!

[sharp elbow]

I wish you good luck with whatever you pursue next!

[honest spear]

Thank you memcpy!

[simple zodiac]

Yeh good luck and thank you also from my side!

[empty yoke]

How do I detect if an entity is moving forward or backward, without using Velocity?

[buoyant canopy]

get the head rotation and compare it to the direction the entity went

[empty yoke]

but I've already done that, but there's a problem with the acceleration system whether I do it via coordinates or via body/head rotation

[buoyant canopy]

btw which entity other than the player can walk backwards?

[empty yoke]

rideable entity

if I press w the condition always occurs because applyKnockback always increases the velocity, but if I do clear it does not work applyKnockback always there is no method only through tp, but through tp there is a problem A and D does not work only through mouse movement you can move with the vehicle

[sharp elbow]

Try comparing motion across ticks. You already know which direction the scooter moved in on the last tick, as well as the impulse you applied to it (theoretically), so you can subtract that vector from the movement direction in the current tick.

That will not be easy though

[hardy tusk]

Hope you're having a good trip as time moves on and thank you for all the amazing things you brought to this community :)

[untold magnet]

for (let i = 1; i <= 4; i++) { ,,, } this should detect numbers from 1 to 4?

[lyric kestrel]

Is Herobrine's Chest UI just for shops?

[distant tulip]

no?

[lyric kestrel]

How do I make it work like a regular container?

I'm a bit confused with it

[distant tulip]

you can't
it is just a form

[obsidian coyote]

Good luck, memcpy!! And thank you so much for everything you have done for this community!

[oblique heath]

yes

[abstract cave]

is there a way to control mob spawn rates using script or control the spawn rates within a certain area

[untold magnet]

jeez

i found the problem in my system

it was this: entity.setDynamicProperty('sk', sk + 1)

the sk + 1 is broken and super slow

[pale terrace]

whats the difference between system.runTimeOut and system.waitTicks?

[deep quiver]

Good bye you were the only mojangster who actually replied to my dms 👍

[oblique heath]

how long has the getBlocks function from the Dimension class been in beta?

[honest spear]

not that long

its kinda new method

[round bone]

can I somehow connect to WebSocket on Realm?

[untold magnet]

ey, i need a little help

how can i use inv.setItem(5, ???) to increase the item in that slot?

[subtle cove]

.amount++

[untold magnet]

if (slot5) slot5.amount++;```?

[subtle cove]

if (!slot5) inv.setItem(5, new ItemStack('minecraft:stick', 1));
if (slot5) {
    slot5.amount++;
    inv.setItem(5, slot5)
}

[untold magnet]

inv.getSlot(5).amount++ will do it

[subtle cove]

yeah

itll error if theres no item tho

[untold magnet]

i can deal with them

for now

I'll take some informations about those alloys

[untold magnet]

hmm

  if (!output) inv.setItem(5, new ItemStack(itemType));
  if (output.amount < 32 && output.amount > 1) inv.getSlot(5).amount++;```those have a log

output = inv.getItem(5);

[untold magnet]

ugh

if (!output?.hasItem) console.warn('empty')
const output = inv.getSlot(5);
||const @subtle cove = help(t17x);||

i just want to detect if that slot is empty

[subtle cove]

thats where u use isValid()

[ivory lagoon]

I wish you could force the player to interact with an entity

[crude flame]

Hi, how can i fix the code, the console says: native function does not have the required privilege

world.beforeEvents.itemUse.subscribe(ev =>{
ev.source.sendMessage("HII")
ev.source.dimension.createExplosion({x:-40,y:1,z:3}, 10);
})

[untold magnet]

if (!output?.isValid()) ???

[ivory lagoon]

use system.run to delay it, you can't modify state in the before events

[crude flame]

how do i use system.run?

[ivory lagoon]

system.run(() => {
  ev.source.sendMessage("HII")
  ev.source.dimension.createExplosion({x:-40,y:1,z:3}, 10);
});

[crude flame]

nothing happens

[ivory lagoon]

Are you using an item?

[crude flame]

yes

HI gets send but no explosion

[untold magnet]

@subtle cove same log

[untold magnet]

i know why

[untold magnet]

the explosion is happening at that location, not nearby the player

const { x, y, z } = player.location;
//({ x: x, y: y + 5, z: z}) will generate an explosion above the player by 5 blocks

[crude flame]

thank you

do you know any great tutorials to learn bedrock coding?

[subtle cove]

just any javascript tutorial

[round bone]

learn JS, then learn basic of npm and start reading some examples + docs

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/scripting/starting-scripts.html

or you can read these

[quick shoal]

anyone who know the error about of not a contain main file

idk how to fix it

no need i solved it thx

[sage sparrow]

hi there! how can get the item type id from the entity item?

[thorn flicker]

get the item component

[oblique heath]

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/1.21.30/classes/_minecraft_server_1_14_0.EntityItemComponent.html

[thorn flicker]

damn

beat me to it

[sage sparrow]

like this? javascript const entityItem = player.dimension.getEntities({ type: "minecraft:item", location: player.location, maxDistance: 10 }) const item = entityItem.getComponent(EntityComponentTypes.Item);

yep, that works, thx!

[remote oyster]

Probably put a condition there to check if entityItem is defined before trying to access a component on something that doesn't exist.

Since it's possible that you may not get any items returned.

entityItem will return an array as well. So if you have more than one object (item) then you will need to loop through entityItem, and then access its component.

[round bone]

can I somehow connect to WebSocket on Realm?

[crude flame]

is there a way to get the inputs by the player, like if the player presses the jump key?

[round bone]

you can detect movement, but not certain moment of input

[crude flame]

ok, thanks

[deft nest]

How can I add lore to items on the ground?

[round bone]

you can grab the item, then modify it, remove entity and place a new one

EntityItemComponent

yeah

[oblique heath]

you dont need to remove the entity

[round bone]

health is 2 decimal

[deft nest]

I'm having trouble doing this.

Is possible to make my own custom crafting table through scripts combining UI server module and Minecraft server module.

The idea is I will register a custom component with onPlayerinteract on it then it loads the UI however I don't have any idea what happens next

[cold grove]

no

there is already a custom crafting table block component

[ruby haven]

Are there any alternatives I don't want the custom crafting table component because it has this auto craft system I want to remove that

applyImpulse just adds to the current entity velocity correct?

[unique dragon]

uh

[fiery solar]

Essentially, yes. There's also acceleration and drag to consider, but that's not usually necessary.

How do you get the entity to be summoned with a tag?

      system.run(() => {
        block.dimension.spawnEntity('occultismus_arcanus:funace_entity',block.center());```

[burnt lance]

if (block.typeId === 'occultismus_arcanus:oven') {
system.run(() => {
let entity = block.dimension.spawnEntity('occultismus_arcanus:funace_entity',block.center());
entity.addTag("test_tag")

[nocturne berry]

Sorry, it's actually a name tag

[subtle cove]

entity.nameTag = "nametag"

[nocturne berry]

Thanks

[last latch]

can someone explain to me how faceLocation works?

It shows always 0, 1, 0 or 0, 0, 0 as Vec3 (with decimals)

even tho i interacted elsewhere

[distant tulip]

you can add the block location to it to get world related location

[last latch]

makes sense, i thought it was the "world related location"

[wheat condor]

do y'all think its useful to create a class that uses timers without using ingame ticks like you can set the timeout at 1ms?

[fiery solar]

Well you can't actually set a timeout of 1ms, so it might be confusing for the people who would use it.

Also, has anyone already done the work to get the biome at a particular block location? I could have sworn I saw something a few months ago but I don't see it in search.

[last latch]

Well you can, but i would only do that with Date and as a cooldown, timeouts in seconds are not a good practice in Minecraft Script API

[wheat condor]

yeah that i was thinking abt using date, i wanted to create a timer class that uses ms instead of ticks

[distant tulip]

i did
wasn't that precise

@fiery solar

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

Player.prototype.findClosestBiomeAsync = async function () {
    const biomes = BiomeTypes.getAll();
    let closestBiome = null;
    let closestDistance = Infinity;
    
    for (const biome of biomes) {
        const loc = this.dimension.findClosestBiome(this.location, biome.id);
        if (loc) {
            const distance = vector3distance(this.location, loc);
            if (distance < closestDistance) {
                closestDistance = distance;
                closestBiome = biome;
            }
        }
        await new Promise(resolve => system.runTimeout(resolve, 0));
    }
    return closestBiome;
};


function vector3distance(a, b) {
    return Math.hypot(a.x - b.x, a.y - b.y, a.z - b.z)
}
//example
world.getPlayers().forEach(player => {
    player.findClosestBiomeAsync().then(biome => {
        console.warn(JSON.stringify(biome));
    })
})

[fiery solar]

Thanks, I was playing around with something like that, but it's a little too slow. I might go the entity route

[distant tulip]

didn't they deprecated that query?

or are you planing to use filter

[fiery solar]

Yeah, filter seems like the best option

[fiery solar]

Wow, this is way faster than I thought it would be. Got the exact biome of every block in 25 chunks in 3.5 seconds.

[distant tulip]

nice
are those blocks?
try to test without any visual

[fiery solar]

They were particles, just to help visualize the biome boundaries. Surprisingly sending 6400 particles doesn't seem to add much time at all, I guess that's handled in another thread. Here's a screenshot of another test with no visuals

[distant tulip]

yeah make you wander why the biome thing was removed
also great job

[nocturne berry]

Does anyone know why the scripts are not working on the Aternos server?

[mystic mortar]

Alright. Waiting for new beta to drop. Im gonna try to see if I can implement my "creaking husk" idea.

Should be easy, as long as I keep it to listening to entity spawn and die events.

[crisp surge]

is it still possible to grab a double chest and do something like this:

const block = player.dimension.getBlock(tempBlock);
const container = block.getComponent(`inventory`).container;
const item = container.getItem(53);

if so how because i keep getting an error saying that slot provided is invalid. and the max is 26

[unique dragon]

make a console
warn with the inv size

console.warn(container.size)

[crisp surge]

it says 27

thats why im confused

[unique dragon]

strange yes

and I don't think the double chests uses 2 entities

[crisp surge]

me neither.

this used to work is the thing. and i dont believe they updated it.

[frozen vine]

is it possible to use playerInteractWithEntity on mobs that do not have the component minecraft:interact?

[abstract cave]

Is there a way to set a mobs agggresion to the player

or another entity

using script

[frozen vine]

what do you mean? I didn't understand

[abstract cave]

Im trying to make a block or entity whichever can do the job, make every mob passive within a certain radius

[frozen vine]

oh yes, sorry I thought you were answering me

[lone thistle]

It is

[oblique heath]

is there a way to check how much experience an experience orb will give you?

[untold magnet]

ugh

how can i make it work inside loaded chunks only?

this happens with entity?.isValid()

[random flint]

Maybe try getting the block on the entity location? It returns undefined if it's on the unloaded chunk (not an error)

[untold magnet]

if it is too complicated, I'll just leave it works inside unloaded chunks

[thin steeple]

does anyone know how to figure out whats causing a slowdown

[crude bridge]

for an item?

you mean cooldown

?

[thin steeple]

no no no

like the slowdown ms thing that appears in your log

oh

idk

[fading sand]

how do i run an event for an entity shooting an projectile?

[untold magnet]

const item = entity.getComponent('minecraft:item'); for getting item entity?

[pliant kite]

const mainhand = player.getComponent("equippable").getEquipment("Mainhand");```

[untold magnet]

getting the item entity, those

not mainhand thing

[pliant kite]

Inventory for item ig

[untold magnet]

[pliant kite]

are you trying to get entity component?

[untold magnet]

item entity

[pliant kite]

why do you need that

[untold magnet]

just like
/kill @e[type=item]

[untold magnet]

It's too obvious, i want to make those item entities disappear

[unreal cove]

Yes

[untold magnet]

i knew it

[fading sand]

how do i run an event for an entity shooting an projectile?

[unreal cove]

Wdym, like forcely trigger minecraft:shooter?

[fading sand]

no ,like run an event once the entity shot an projectile

before i used run command in the projectile lol

[unreal cove]

No events exist for that, there's just on entity/block hit for projectiles, but ig you could use the entitySpawn event, and just check if the spawned entity has minecraft:projectile component to further confirm it's a projectile, that component also has owner property which can be used to check for it's source

[fading sand]

Now, when using the entity spawn event signal, can we even get the owner using script?

[unreal cove]

yeah you can

[fading sand]

O:

How again? I couldnt seem to find it in the wiki

Dont tell me its simply getOwner..

(Idk if that exists)

[unreal cove]

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

[untold magnet]

if (reIy.includes(floorItem?.typeId)) floorItem.entity.remove; aren't working for some reason?

theres 30 different item type i want to remove, so i putted them all inside of that reIy

[fading sand]

let projectileEntity1Component = projectileEntity1.getComponent('minecraft:projectile');

let ownerEntity = projectileEntity1Component.owner

[unreal cove]

What's floorItem? `

[untold magnet]

const floorItem = entity.getComponent('minecraft:item');

[unreal cove]

if (reIy.includes(floorItem?.itemStack.typeId))

[fading sand]

Yes or no?

[unreal cove]

yes

[fading sand]

Nice

Thx

[untold magnet]

still not removing those item entities

[random flint]

.remove; —> .remove();

[untold magnet]

ah, i see

[untold magnet]

if (reIy.includes(floorItem?.itemStack.typeId)) floorItem.entity.remove(); stills not removing them

[quick shoal]

why not try

killEntity?

[untold magnet]

floorItem.entity.kill();

[unreal cove]

Can u show full code?

[untold magnet]

const reIy = ['someCorrectIds']
const floorItem = entity.getComponent('minecraft:item');
if (reIy.includes(floorItem?.itemStack.typeId)) floorItem.entity.remove();```thats all

wait

[untold magnet]

for (const entity of world.getDimension(dim).getEntities()) { /// }

[unreal cove]

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

system.runInterval(() => {
    for (const entity of world.getDimension("overworld").getEntities()) {
        const reIy = ['minecraft:apple']
        const floorItem = entity.getComponent('minecraft:item');
        if (reIy.includes(floorItem?.itemStack.typeId)) entity.remove();
    }
}, 20);

works just fine for me

[untold magnet]

entity.remove,
floorItem.entity.remove will not work right?

my feeling tells me entity.remove will remove all entities not only those items

[unreal cove]

that too works

[unreal cove]

only the matched entities

[untold magnet]

then why its not working for me

[sharp elbow]

entity is locally defined as the current iteration of .getEntities(), so it should only remove those that match the conditions

[subtle cove]

did it pass the conditions...

[untold magnet]

damn it...

[subtle cove]

console.warn(entity.getComponent('item')?.itemStack.typeId)

[fading sand]

why do ownerEntity.setPropery("soldier:ammo", soldierAmmo-1); cause an error?

[subtle cove]

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


const dims = DimensionTypes.getAll().map(d => world.getDimension(d.typeId))

system.runInterval(() => {
    for (const entityItem of dims.flatMap(d => d.getEntities({ type: "item" }))) {

        const reIy = ['minecraft:apple']
        const floorItem = entityItem.getComponent('minecraft:item');
        console.warn(floorItem.itemStack.typeId);
        if (reIy.includes(floorItem.itemStack.typeId)) entityItem.remove();
    }
}, 20);

[subtle cove]

what error...

[fading sand]

not a function...

[subtle cove]

spelling

[subtle cove]

setProperty

[fading sand]

oh sheet not again 😂

thx

[distant tulip]

setVelocity()
clearVelocity()
setRotation()
is there is any reason why all those not present in the player class?
is there a bug that preventing them from being added or what?

[sharp elbow]

You could say that. Those would probably cause a client-server desync if used

The reason applyKnockback() works and applyImpulse() doesn't, I imagine, is that the former calls upon an existing code path in Minecraft (in this case, the knockback roar). Similarly for why teleport() works and setRotation() doesn't—the former, in essence, invokes the same logic as the /teleport command

So in theory, if Minecraft supports applying arbitrary velocity or rotation and can send those packets to the client, then scripting should support it too

I'd love setRotation() 😔

[distant tulip]

sound like client side scripting

[sharp elbow]

Eh, not really. Only proper client-server communication

[distant tulip]

i can hear java player laughing 😅

[deep plank]

I don't see setVelocity() in docs.

[distant tulip]

do we have anything like that currently?

i guess camera command?

[sharp elbow]

Basically everything that works relies on communication in some form. The server tells the client what to do, and the client tells the server what its intentions are

[distant tulip]

applyImpulse 😅

[sharp elbow]

Camera is a good example. Server tells the client "you should move your camera to this location with this rotation"

[distant tulip]

yeah i see your point

[fading sand]

can someone send me entity event event signal code preset rq?

[distant tulip]

you mean DataDrivenEntityTriggerAfterEvent?

[fading sand]

Ye

DataDrivenEntityTriggerEventAfter

[distant tulip]

should look like
world.afterEvents.dataDrivenEntityTrigger.subscribe()

[fading sand]

Leme see

alr

now

how do i get the family names of an entity ?

[frozen vine]

is it possible to use item.nameTag and elr use the name chosen in the lang file?

[fading sand]

i want to get the teamxyz family name, like get team1 and make it so the result is 1 and if the entity has an family with the name team2 the result should be 2

[distant tulip]

no

that is client side

[frozen vine]

This is sad

[distant tulip]

replace team with an empty string
const teamIndex = Number('teamxyz'.replace(''team',""))

[fading sand]

but, how do we
1.get the family names of an entity
2.get every name starting with team

[distant tulip]

check the entity class
there probably a getFamilies() function
as for the second one just filter them out

[fading sand]

hm

[thorn ocean]

Does anyone know if system.runJob allows to return a value from a function?

[untold magnet]

my freaking bad,

i was writing the entity killer inside of the block entity

i mean if (entity.typeId === 'myBlock:entity') { /// item entity killer }

i put it outside that and it works fine now

actually

bec im too lazy

i will not make a system that will remove those items from the player or the entity inventory

well,

how can i make the script work only inside loaded chunks?
bec the block entity keeps working inside unloaded chunks

entity.isValid() will make it work inside unloaded chunks, how can i reverse it? like putting a ! or something?

[thorn ocean]

Perhaps entity.isValid() == false?

[untold magnet]

not working

it should console.warn when it is inside the loaded chunks

it does not console.warn even inside the unloaded chunks

[thorn ocean]

Hmm. You said you were testing a block right?

[untold magnet]

block entity
in fact it is an entity

[thorn ocean]

Well, maybe you can get the entities location, use the location with the getBlock method. If the chunk is unloaded, the method should return undefined.

[crisp surge]

does anyone in here know term cmds for bds?

[remote oyster]

If you have an entity loaded then the surrounding chunks are loaded.

[crisp surge]

i just accidently pressed ctrl+z in a term while my bds was open and it stopped it and im lowkey scared i messed sum up

it also wont open again

[untold magnet]

wait, is it bec i have this:
entity?.isValid() && block?.isValid()?

[remote oyster]

You will be fine. I think I have only experienced corruption once and it was due to something far more complex.

[crisp surge]

it wont open the server again it says something about freeing up ports. and it says exiting program

[untold magnet]

thats for testing if the entity is inside the motherblock or not

[remote oyster]

You need to kill it. Is this in Windows or Linux?

[crisp surge]

im on windows but my friend is hosting it on a docker through linux

so linux

[remote oyster]

In the terminal enter the following:

ps aux | grep bedrock_server

This will, or should, show a list of process ID's related to the application for the server still running in the background. Technically you should only see one. It will have a PID which is short for Process ID. Grab that and enter the following in the terminal:

kill -9 12345

12345 would be the PID for your case so make sure you replace that. -9 basically tells the command to forcefully kill the Process.

[crisp surge]

okay thank you so very much

[remote oyster]

Welcome. After that you should be able to run the server again

[crisp surge]

it shows 3

do i kill 2?

[remote oyster]

Kill all three of them.

[crisp surge]

okay

it worked thanks so much!

[remote oyster]

[thorn ocean]

Well if you are using Block.isValid, then that area is still loaded then, cuz block?.isValid only works when the block is loaded and instantly fails when it is not.

[remote oyster]

^

[untold magnet]

it returns a log without block.isValid

should i remove block?.isValid() from the script?

[thorn ocean]

That's because entity.isValid ignores unloaded chunks. It works as long as the entity exists.

[untold magnet]

so entity?.isValid{() === false will make it work only inside loaded chunks?

[thorn ocean]

No I don't think so. Why don't you try just block?.isValid{() === true?

[untold magnet]

if it is true it should not keep loading the chunks around it?

sorry but my brain isn't braining on the isValid section

can u explain to me specifically what they are for?
entity?.isValid() && block?.isValid() ← i have them like this

tell me what should i change

[thorn ocean]

When an entity uses isValid(), that tests whether the entity exists, even if it is stuck in unloaded chunks. When a block uses isValid(), tests if the block exists and is not in an unloaded chunk. If you're trying to make sure it only works in unloaded areas, then try this:

entity?.isValid() && block?.isValid() == true

[untold magnet]

that should make it work inside loaded chunks only right?

[remote oyster]

It will not work inside loaded chunks just because you are checking for isValid. The purpose of that property is to tell you if the entity is loaded or not. If they are not loaded it will return false. If they are loaded it will return true. It does not matter how you try to manipulate the property. The results will be the same whether the entity is loaded (true) or not loaded (false).

[untold magnet]

i just want to make the script work only when the entity inside loaded chunks, like the spawn loaded chunks,

[remote oyster]

Any entity loaded will be inside loaded chunks. I'm not aware of any entity being loaded and there not being loaded chunks. It's the same principle on why some people will create fake players (entities) to remain logged in so certain farms will continue operating when everyone logs off.

Actually, I'm ahead of myself. Player entities will be in loaded chunks. I believe other entities are programmatically designed to despawn or freeze when a player steps away or logs off. Now I'm curious on how far that extends outward with entities 👀

[untold magnet]

i see

so entity.isValid is quite useless right?

[fiery solar]

Sometimes getEntities will return entities that are outside of loaded chunks that have a valid lifecycle (entity.isValid()). I only ran into this recently, it's pretty annoying. I think it happens when they were loaded, but not you move out of the area

[fiery solar]

It will tell you if the entity is dead or not

[remote oyster]

That's interesting behavior right there.

[untold magnet]

that means its useless for my script

[oblique heath]

just check if the entity object itself exists

from the entity list

[cerulean cliff]

out of curiosity, how do I send a form using the scripting api and get the result of which button/input or what every has been used?

let's say I have a custom form

an input, maybe even a slider and a toggle

[untold magnet]

finally

after 5 days of coding a script,

oh, wait

i forgot

j gotta make the slot 5 locked

i think

if (item5?.typeId !== 'minecraft:stick') inv.transferItem(5, playerInventory) will transfer any item from that slot into the player inventory

but wait

is it will transfer the item to a random player or for the nearest player?

[oblique heath]

where are you getting the inventory from?

[sage portal]

Is there a way to save and edit multiple arrays per player, or are we just forced to keep track of dozens of dynamic properties?

[valid ice]

Can use JSON.stringify() & JSON.parse() to save arrays/objects to a single property

[sage portal]

Never tried a method like that before, I'll have to look into it

[untold magnet]

entity.getComponent('inventory').container

[frozen vine]

in fact this is possible

[oblique heath]

where are you getting the entity from?

[untold magnet]

world.getEntities()

im so tired

[distant tulip]

ok?

[frozen vine]

after a lot of research and testing I managed to do this

[distant tulip]

that not a thing

[untold magnet]

i know

[distant tulip]

how?

[oblique heath]

are you using any entity query options?

[untold magnet]

what are they?

[frozen vine]

newItem.nameTag = `%item.lampc.name\n%item.lampc.desc\n${mobName}`

[oblique heath]

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/interfaces/_minecraft_server_1_14_0.EntityQueryOptions.html

[distant tulip]

uhm ...
that not from the lang file

[frozen vine]

Item.lampc.name and item.lampc.desc are descriptions used to name the lang file

in the game it looks like this

[untold magnet]

and how can i use that to make the player cannot place any item inside a specific slot?

[oblique heath]

I'm asking if you are using any of those options

[untold magnet]

i don't think so

[oblique heath]

do you want the item to be transfered to nearest player?

[distant tulip]

you are not really getting the name that way
that just using raw text
i kinda messed your point from the question early, sorry

[untold magnet]

no, just a locked slot, the player cannot place items inside it, only taking off items

I'll show u a video as an example

[oblique heath]

ok

[frozen vine]

oh yes, I don't speak English so sorry if you didn't understand, but earlier I was asking if it was possible to do this

[oblique heath]

oh

the slot is an "output slot" correct?

[untold magnet]

exactly

discord is glitching for me

i literally can spam messages

[untold magnet]

not exactly like this

[oblique heath]

hmm I can't think of a good way. this behavior is hardcoded for inventory uis

[untold magnet]

i mean the player cannot place items there, if the player did place the items they will be canceled or dropped

or something

[distant tulip]

btw i think doing most of those stuff from the entity json would have been so much better

[untold magnet]

rly?

how

[distant tulip]

timer and calling script when needed
just my thought so nvm

[untold magnet]

hmm,

transferItem → when a player place the item there, it will transfer the item back to the same player

or, just drop any items inside that slot

[oblique heath]

how will you prevent duplication exploit

[untold magnet]

transfer the item will not be a problem right?

[oblique heath]

maybe it will work

[untold magnet]

just transfer the item from the entity to the player who is placed that item there

hmm

i think dropping the item will be better

gosh, nvm wait

i found a good way

[distant tulip]

just make a slot for the result?

[untold magnet]

making it has a placeholder - locked

[untold magnet]

its an output slot

it shouldn't accept items

[distant tulip]

that what json ui is for...

[untold magnet]

i know i can lock the slot using UI

but when it has a output, how can i take it off?,

if the slot is locked

[distant tulip]

can't you prevent just adding items?
look at the furnace ui

[untold magnet]

furnace_output_panel?

[distant tulip]

you will need to look at that panel and see what that slot is using
also off-topic

[untold magnet]

"furnace_output_panel": {
    "type": "panel",
    "size": [ "50%", "100%" ],
    "anchor_from": "top_right",
    "anchor_to": "top_right",
    "controls": [
      {
        "[email protected]_item": {
          "anchor_from": "left_middle",
          "anchor_to": "left_middle",
          "size": [ 26, 26 ],
          "$cell_image_size": [ 26, 26 ],
          "offset": [ 20, 0 ],
          "$item_collection_name": "furnace_output_items",

          "$focus_id": "furnace_output_item",
          "$focus_override_right_binding_type": "none",
          "$focus_override_right": "FOCUS_OVERRIDE_STOP",
          "$focus_override_left_binding_type": "none",
          "$focus_override_left": "furnace_fuel_item"
        }
      }
    ]
  },```ui stuff hurts

[distant tulip]

change the vars one by one and test and see 🤷‍♂️
anyway move to the json channel

[untold magnet]

maybe tomorrow

[thorn ocean]

Does anyone know if system.runJob allows for returning values from a function?

[distant tulip]

runJob return the run id
so no?
you will need to pass the value other ways

[deep quiver]

yeah make it edit some sort of object or map or whatever you want and then you basically have return values

[fiery solar]

You can wrap your runJob in such a way that you can await its completion and have the promise resolve to any value you want.

[thorn ocean]

How do I do that?

[thorn ocean]

I've never understood how people are able to use the await keyword.

[abstract cave]

let itemList = ["minecraft:diamond_axe",

    "minecraft:netherite_axe"]

world.afterEvents.itemUseOn.subscribe((data) => {
    const player = data.source
    const item = data.itemStack
    const block = data.block
    const itemId = item.typeId

    for (let ItemsID of itemList) {
        if (itemId.includes(ItemsID) && block.typeId === "minecraft:grass_block") {
            player.runCommand("/give @s diamond")
        }
    }
})```
Why does the script not work
Its meant to give the player a diamond if the player rightclicks on grass with an axe
can anyone help

[thin steeple]

const itemList = ["minecraft:diamond_axe", "minecraft:iron_axe", "minecraft:netherite_axe"];

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

  for (const aitem of itemList) {
      if (item?.typeId === aitem && block.typeId === "minecraft:grass_block") {
          player.runCommand("/give @s diamond")
      }
  }
})

try that

[abstract cave]

Ok

[thin steeple]

you could also use the array includes method to make things short, but i chose not to add that to your script.

[abstract cave]

it was already in the one sent before

[thin steeple]

i saw

[abstract cave]

nope it doesnt work

[thin steeple]

any error

[abstract cave]

nope

[thin steeple]

const itemList = ["minecraft:diamond_axe", "minecraft:iron_axe", "minecraft:netherite_axe"];

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

  for (const aitem of itemList) {
      if (item?.typeId === aitem && block.typeId === "minecraft:grass_block") {
        player.getComponent("inventory").container.addItem(new ItemStack("minecraft:diamond", 1))
      }
  }
})

try that instead

i think it was the command that wasnt working

[fiery solar]

It depends what you want to do, there's lots of ways to pass data around.

Here's a basic example of a function that gets all the Air blocks in a cube using runJob and returns a promise that resolves to those blocks.

function getAirBlocksInRadius(dimension: Dimension, origin: Vector3, radius: number): Promise<Block[]> {
  return new Promise((resolve) => {
    const generator: () => Generator<void, void, void> = function* () {
      const airBlocks: Block[] = [];
      for (let x = -radius; x <= radius; x++) {
        for (let y = -radius; y <= radius; y++) {
          for (let z = -radius; z <= radius; z++) {
            const location = { x: origin.x + x, y: origin.y + y, z: origin.z + z };
            const block = dimension.getBlock(location);
            if (block?.isAir) airBlocks.push(block);
            yield;
          }
        }
      }
      resolve(airBlocks);
    };
    system.runJob(generator());
  });
}

Usage: const airBlocks = await getAirBlocksInRadius(player.dimension, player.location, 10);

[abstract cave]

doesnt work, idk why onUseOn is always like this
so annoying yo use 😦

[distant tulip]

keep in mind await need to be in a async function

[thin steeple]

const itemList = ["minecraft:diamond_axe", "minecraft:iron_axe", "minecraft:netherite_axe"];

world.beforeEvents.itemUseOn.subscribe((data) => {
  const player = data.source;
  const item = data.itemStack;
  const block = data.block;

      if (itemList.includes(item?.typeId) && block.typeId === "minecraft:grass_block") {
        player.runCommandAsync("give @s diamond 1")
      }
})

try that

i agree, itemUseOn can be pesky sometimes

[abstract cave]

doesnt work, guess ill just not use itemUseOn

[thin steeple]

it worked just fine for me

[abstract cave]

can you show

[thin steeple]

yeah

[abstract cave]

hmm, if i try it with the .includes part, it doesnt work
but without it, it works

[thin steeple]

that's odd

[north rapids]

Is it possible to keep the Actionform open even after choosing an option?

[distant tulip]

no
re open the form

[north rapids]

Okay, it works now, i was puting it in the wrong file, thanks for the help

[thin steeple]

ah

no problem

[rose light]

Is there a way to make a particle appear for only 1 exclusive player?

[thorn flicker]

its in beta

[rose light]

thank you

[oblique heath]

how long has it been in beta?

[thorn flicker]

I dont know.

[thin steeple]

just note that no other player can see it

[thorn flicker]

thats what he wants.

1 exclusive player

[thin steeple]

well he said for 1 player

[thorn flicker]

as in, only 1 player can see it.

[distant gulch]

why in the hell does it keep saying this?

[shy leaf]

the TickTime dynamic property could be undefined or wrong

[distant gulch]

thats why i have if (TickTime === undefined)

it also might be a string

try typeof to check if its a string or number

[distant gulch]

def not the issue, even with removing the TickTime stuff it still throws an error

[shy leaf]

oof

that error is seriously painful to resolve, ive experienced it before

[distant gulch]

i've never had this issue so i have no clue :(

[shy leaf]

maybe do you have try catch somewhere?

since its not pointing to anywhere

[distant gulch]

like?

[shy leaf]

no i was asking if you had it anywhere

is that the one though

[distant gulch]

fixed it

idk what the issue was

i just re did the entire menu

How would i update a water block immediately after setting it?

i'm setting it like this: block.setPermutation(BlockPermutation.resolve("minecraft:water"))

[oblique heath]

why not set use .setType?

are you trying to make it flow everywhere?

[slim spear]

Yeah

[slim spear]

that's a thing?

[oblique heath]

yes...

[slim spear]

does that update the block?

[oblique heath]

not sure

Is it not possible to use multiple addons which have scripts??

it is possiblle

Howw

[honest spear]

just add more packs zo you world 👍

[hardy cedar]

The scripts don't work

Only the one at the top does

[random flint]

what kind of "scripts"

[distant tulip]

check the blocks around (the sides and down) for air block and set it to flowing water

or invis blocks and remove it
or just air?

[slim spear]

Setting it to flowing water instead of just water did the trick

[distant tulip]

in the source block?

[slim spear]

Ye

[distant tulip]

you can't pick that up

[slim spear]

?

I was able to

[distant tulip]

huh

hi there, on the playerLeave I cannot get the dimension and location the player was?

[random flint]

Use the beforeEvents variant, it provides the entire player class. Including dimension and location.

[distant tulip]

not sure what are you using that for but keep in mind that may not trigger if the game is force closed

[random flint]

I guess you can periodically save each data with system.runInterval with a bit cost of performance

[ruby haven]

Bro your my savior

[thorn ocean]

LOL, just realized that now there is dyeable component for items, we need a method in scripting to manipulate such values.

[thorn ocean]

Wait, nvm, there is a dyeable component in scripts lol.

[honest spear]

Cool but you could add some delay before you start moving with player based on the distance of the hook has hit

[distant tulip]

yeah
i did that
that was an old video
the hook trigger the event when it land

[honest spear]

Cool

[distant tulip]

thanks

[last latch]

technically there is no method to destroy blocks / get drop from blocks using script api (not including commands) right?

[honest spear]

in theory there is Simulated Player that has breakBlock method where you cn specify the item to break block with as well

why in theory?

bc its not module for addon development

well at least not now

[last latch]

This is exactly what i am using for couple hours to create a map with every loot

[untold magnet]

well well well. . .

only one last thing is left for the forge block

adding custom sound effects

[last latch]

hmm should i say that this map has 38k lines and doesnt have fortune, silk touch and shears? 😢

i spent like 10 hours

but i have it (partially)

now
sounds, particles, enchants and shears!

😭

[untold magnet]

?

[untold magnet]

r u talking about custom ores?

[frozen vine]

Is it possible to detect when the player dies?

[last latch]

almost all vanilla blocks

so i can get a drop from a block

[untold magnet]

ah!

i already have that

[last latch]

really?

[untold magnet]

i literally made a whole system for it

a couple months ago

when i was new at scripting

[last latch]

nice
but does it have all tools?

[untold magnet]

like having a custom destroy speed?

that is possible to do using the block.json

[last latch]

nah only which tool drops this item from this block

[untold magnet]

already have it

this is quite odd, but u can see how i make it look like vanilla 99%

fortune is applied too, u can use fortune and u will have different drop amounts

same with silk touch

if the ore required iron tier +
and u trying to break the block using a silk touch shears, it will not drop the block.

[last latch]

nice

[last latch]

mine looks like

the only downside that this map lags my IDE (vsc) alot

i will improve it and post it on github

[untold magnet]

u should make it not dropping anything if the player are in creative mode

i already done that ;>

for now i will not update it

I'll be focusing on making the addon functionality

[last latch]

ik i just made a quick script that retrieves the drop

world.afterEvents.playerBreakBlock.subscribe(({ itemStackBeforeBreak: itemStack, player, brokenBlockPermutation: { type: { id: typeId } }, dimension, block: { location: { x, y, z } } }) => {
    const usedTool = tools.includes(itemStack?.typeId.replace("minecraft:", "")) ? itemStack.typeId : "fists";

    const drops = lootTable.get(typeId).tools.get(usedTool.replace("minecraft:", ""));

    for (const drop of drops)
        dimension.spawnItem(new ItemStack(drop), { x: x + 0.5, y: y, z: z + 0.5 })
});```

i will implement an "API" for this in my https://github.com/syylaxx/RockWrap

[untold magnet]

jeez this is so different from what i did months ago

anyways

XD

is there a block which drops 2 items when mined?

[bright torrent]

Say I want to make a particle persist until I want to remove it. Basically, I want a 2D graphic to persist until I'd like to remove it. Is the only way to attach it to a dummy entity/make it part of the entity's animation, and then remove the entity when I want to remove the particle?

[untold magnet]

just:
brokenBlockPermutation.dimension.spawnItem()
brokenBlockPermutation.dimension.spawnItem()

just put it twice

[thorn flicker]

he wasnt asking how to do it

he was asking if there was a vanilla block that did that

[untold magnet]

oh

yah my bad

[thorn flicker]

lol

[untold magnet]

[thorn flicker]

also hey

my dynamic property thing was trash apparently?

[untold magnet]

?

[thorn flicker]

Ive gave you code about a dynamic property not that long ago

you had issues with it being slow or something

[untold magnet]

yes it is slow as hell

[thorn flicker]

I dont see how

[untold magnet]

im using 3 different dynamic properties at the same time

i have to increase the dynamic property number at the same time for each one

which was sooo slow

[thorn flicker]

🤷‍♂️

you found a fix though?

[untold magnet]

in fact, im using 4 different dynamic properties

[untold magnet]

yah

[thorn flicker]

whats the fix? im curious.

[untold magnet]

i used my method

if (1) 2
if (2) 3
if (3) 4

[thorn flicker]

bruh

[untold magnet]

this was way faster

way

[thorn flicker]

I still cant think of a reason why it would be slow

makes no sense

[untold magnet]

thats why i changed it

[thorn flicker]

you are just retrieving the current value, and adding onto it...

[untold magnet]

everything is 200% right, but still slow and having issues with the timer

[thorn flicker]

I use this same logic with a bunch of stuff in scripting all the time.

[untold magnet]

i removed the delay from the interval, it should spam it

i did some tests

console.warn outside the property thing

and console.warn inside the property thing

it should spam it fast, but it not

[thorn flicker]

idk

I guess it was just too much

[last latch]

correct ✅

[last latch]

any ideas?

[thorn flicker]

answer to your question: no

[last latch]

oh nice

[thorn flicker]

lol

unless... you mean like, fortune

[last latch]

just two different items

like one apple and one stick

[thorn flicker]

different items, no.

[last latch]

nice

[thorn flicker]

why?

[untold magnet]

aright gotta mine some ores using my looting 3 pickaxe

[thorn flicker]

I meant fortune

mb

[last latch]

i am trying to make a map with every loot from every vanilla block with every fortune level and silktouch

already made one just with pure tools and not randomized drop rate of ores and other alike blocks*

[lone thistle]

Have you tried faking it with ScriptAPI

[last latch]

efficiently? isnt possible

unless you count setblock ~~~ air destroy

[lone thistle]

Try spawning items on break block?

[distant tulip]

the loot table command have the blocks drop?

[last latch]

wdym

[lone thistle]

loot table or dimension spawn item

[last latch]

i am making a map with every block drop

i need it to spawn items

[thorn flicker]

I dont understand what you are trying to do really

[last latch]

imagine you need to destroy a block with a stone pickaxe fortune 2
how can you do it using scripts?

||you cant (using methods)||

[terse tide]

Its possible to make when i click in a block if i have a tag the block switch?

[thorn flicker]

you mean when the block get's turned to air without the player breaking it

I see.

[lone thistle]

playerBreakBlock beforeEvent + enchantable component of the held item

[thorn flicker]

no destroyBlock method yet

[last latch]

unfortunatly

[thorn flicker]

not what he means

[lone thistle]

Ah alright

[last latch]

look, I want to destroy a block using Script API
something like : new BlockManager(block: Block).destroy(): void

[terse tide]

?...

[last latch]

using new Map<k, v>()

[thorn flicker]

or just have a destroy method on the block class

thats it

nothing fancy

block.destroy()

[last latch]

yeah,

[last latch]

yes

it is possible to switch a block whenever you interact with a block with a specific tag

[thorn flicker]

when you click it, just use the setType() method.

[distant tulip]

is that a thing

read lol

we are WISHING for it

[terse tide]

how?

[last latch]

fr

the funniest part is that my undone map is already at 38k lines 🤣

[distant tulip]

i will join you on that

[thorn flicker]

if (player.hasTag('whatever') {
block.setType('minecraft:dirt')
}

assuming the variable for player, is player, and for block, its block ofc.

[terse tide]

I know that

[thorn flicker]

...

[terse tide]

but when i click

what function do i use for when i click?

[thorn flicker]

depends

do you want it to trigger when you have an item, or empty hand and item?

[terse tide]

empty

[thorn flicker]

custom components or world events

if its a vanilla block, it needs to be a world event

playerInteractWithBlock

[terse tide]

Api version?

[thorn flicker]

for playerInteractWithBlock, you need beta apis.

should come out in stable 1.21.40

[terse tide]

Thanks

[thorn flicker]

if its a custom block, you could use custom components, which is in stable rn.

[untold magnet]

ugh

[thorn flicker]

jump onboard

[untold magnet]

im getting more issues

[last latch]

It is sometimes fun to look at #1046947779118895114

How some people do amazing stuff using Json UI, or code custom blocks with their own mechanics or code helpful utils

[oblique heath]

yep

[zinc flax]

Is running commands inside scripts better than running commands through tick.js functions?

[thin steeple]

i dont think it really makes a difference. however, a lot of commands in a script can slow down it.

use the native methods

[terse tide]

Its possible to open a container with playerInteractBlock?

[oblique heath]

no

[fiery solar]

Running the logic of the commands through scripts is always faster than running commands through tick.json since the game always has to evaluate every command with all the selectors every tick.

[bright torrent]

What are the use cases for scriptevent commands?

[subtle cove]

Better custom chat commands
Block, NPC, Entity, Server can use it

[abstract cave]

Is there a way to detect when a player right clicks an entity with an item? using scripts

[tiny tartan]

playerInteractWithEntity event and player.getComponent('equippable').getEquipment('Mainhand') it will return itemstack then check for item and entity

[abstract cave]

i thought the player .interact with entity event is still experimental

[shy leaf]

nope

[thorn flicker]

it is

[tiny tartan]

it is

[shy leaf]

whar

but its

[thorn flicker]

are you saying it is experimental or its not

[abstract cave]

[Scripting][error]-Unhandled promise rejection: TypeError: cannot read property 'subscribe' of undefined

[Scripting][error]-Plugin [Extractinator - 1.0.0] - [main.js] ran with error: [TypeError: cannot read property 'subscribe' of undefined    at <anonymous> (pulverized_copper.js:34)

    if (item.typeId === "splus:syringe" && entity.typeId === "minecraft:creeper") {
        player.runCommand("/say I extracted your dna")
    }
})

Why do i receive this error

[shy leaf]

right there

[tiny tartan]

its still beta

[abstract cave]

crap

[tiny tartan]

it will get stable in next update iirc

[thorn flicker]

it is experimental

[abstract cave]

is there any way to replicate this

[thorn flicker]

edit the creeper json or use getEntitiesFromViewDirection() with itemUse world event

[oblique heath]

☠️

[abstract cave]

why is it in the jayly docs on v1.13.0 not beta

[thorn flicker]

im not jayly, so I dont know.

also 1.14.0 is the latest

[shy leaf]

its right there??

[tiny tartan]

iirc s1 said that event signals are stable but event it self is still beta for some reason but not sure

[thorn flicker]

ive seen people say it'll come out in 1.21.40

along with playerInteractWithBlock

[thorn flicker]

same thing on stirante

[oblique heath]

if its not here then its not in stable

[shy leaf]

what in the bloody hell

[thorn flicker]

yeah

just wait for 1.21.40

[thorn flicker]

or do this

[valid ice]

Real

s' been beta forever at this point

[shy leaf]

so the game has been gaslighting me the whole time???

[thorn flicker]

the docs have

lol

[shy leaf]

ive been using it without issues so i thought it was stable the whole time

oml

[hybrid island]

can someone give me code like when a player gets out of the cordinates
420 62 271 269 62 361
then i can do someting

[subtle cove]

const q = {
    location: {x: 269,y:-60,z:271},
    get volume() {
        return {x: 420 - this.location.x, y:500, z:361, 
- this.location.z} 
    } 
}
if (!player.matches(q)) {
    //is outside
} 

[oblique heath]

ItemComponentUseOnEvent seems to never fire for custom items that have the minecraft:is_shovel tag...

[urban goblet]

is there a way to pass info from scriptAPI to attachable?

I want to use animation controllers to play different animations base on data from scriptAPI

So is there a way for scriptAPI pass data to molang then in RPAnim, use query to play animation base on the molang

[unkempt siren]

is it possible to write/read files with script api?

[prisma shard]

what you mean

no

Oh, then you can't

but you cant write files with sceipt api

[unkempt siren]

nah i meant text or json files

alr

[prisma shard]

Oh, Then you can't

[subtle cove]

Using http method with @minecraft/server-net module in bds

[halcyon phoenix]

is it possible to trigger uis in JS? like a simple regen bar

[halcyon phoenix]

what are some stuff it can do?

[distant tulip]

just forms

[halcyon phoenix]

is that better than just simply using jsonui?

[halcyon phoenix]

I want to know the difference

[distant tulip]

no
you can't do anything using only json ui
it always need a base
action bar - title - forms - ....

[halcyon phoenix]

ahh I see

thanks minato

annyways dare enchantments just lore?

[halcyon phoenix]

found this: ```js
enchantments.addEnchantment({ type: new EnchantmentType(MinecraftEnchantmentTypes.FireAspect), level: 1 });

but doing this: ```js
enchantments.addEnchantment({ type: FireAspect), level: 1 });

is the same right?

[keen folio]

will this work?

const armor  = player.getComponent("equippable")?.getEquipment("Armor");```

[halcyon phoenix]

I think nope

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/enums/_minecraft_server_1_15_0_beta.EquipmentSlot.html

[halcyon phoenix]

I think you gotta say which part

Body, Head, Chest etc....

[keen folio]

how to check the 4 parts at once?

[halcyon phoenix]

make 4 variables

and check each

whatcha tryna do?

[halcyon phoenix]

you can't check them all simultaneously because they are different

[keen folio]

resolved

[distant tulip]

define an array with all the armor parts and map the items

[halcyon phoenix]

hey minato the second one is fine right?

[distant tulip]

no
see what MinecraftEnchantmentTypes.FireAspect return
and it also need to be a string

[halcyon phoenix]

so I need to do
MinecaftEnchantmentTypes?

[distant tulip]

guys help https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1292076300730765353

[halcyon phoenix]

I can just do "minecraft:sharpness" like that?

[halcyon phoenix]

yeah, I saw that in getEnchantment it returns a string so I thought maybe I don't need to do the MinecraftEnchantmentTypes.*enchants*

[halcyon phoenix]

asked you something in there

[distant tulip]

getEnchantment don't return a string

what are you trying to do

[amber granite]

What s new ?

[untold magnet]

sheeeeesh, 156 lines for the forge system

its finally finished

[keen folio]

const armorSlots = ['head', 'chest', 'legs', 'feet'];

            const armor = dEntity.getComponent('equippable')?.getEquipment(slot);
            if (!armor) continue;

12 freaking days of making only one block

day 1: model + texture
day 2: unfinished UI
day 3 ~ day 12: functionality + UI

[halcyon phoenix]

im tryna make disenchanter

[subtle cove]

grindstone...

[halcyon phoenix]

its an item

instead of a block

off hand item

[untold magnet]

i think he wants to extract the enchants

idk

[halcyon phoenix]

yeah extract

also I don't know how grindstone works 🙂

[untold magnet]

grindstone just removes the enchantment and gives u some XPs

[halcyon phoenix]

yeah never used it once 🙃

but i'm tryna make a portable disenchanter that uses amethyst as fuel

    /// USES CHATSEND AFTER 
        let mainhand = sender.getComponent("equippable").getEquipment("Mainhand")
        let enchants = mainhand.getComponent(ItemEnchantableComponent.componentId)
        enchants.addEnchantment({type: "minecraft:fire_aspect", level: 1})
        sender.getComponent("equippable").setEquipment("mainhand", mainhand)

hilp 😦

[last latch]

Wrong!

One block has more than 1 different drop

one out of hundreds

[wheat condor]

is there something to know if a chest state is opened or closed?

[subtle cove]

leaves...

apple, sapling stick

[halcyon phoenix]

heyhey how do you check if an inventory slot is empty?

[subtle cove]

const itemSlot = container.getSlot(13)
if (!itemSlot.hasItem()) {
  //no item
}

[last latch]

leaves can drop all of them?

i was talking about netherreactor

lol

[subtle cove]

;-;

[untold magnet]

why?;
entity?.triggerEvent('exe:despawn')

this is the full line:
system.runTimeout(() => { if (block?.typeId !== 'my:block' && block?.isValid() === true) { entity?.triggerEvent('exe:despawn') } }, TicksPerSecond * 0.1);

[subtle cove]

entity.isValid()

why despawn event when there's entity.remove()

[halcyon phoenix]

if (item.typeId == "minecraft:book") {
  const enchants = item.getComponent("enchantable")                
  enchants.addEnchantment({type: "minecraft:fire_aspect", level: 1})
}

is this the correct way to add enchants?

[untold magnet]

idk, i like triggerEvent more

[subtle cove]

search addEnchantment here

[halcyon phoenix]

here?

[subtle cove]

yeah, to see other's code samples

[halcyon phoenix]

dude what....

[subtle cove]

mhm

[halcyon phoenix]

lol

Thanks by the way

[halcyon phoenix]

how does /enchant works?

why did the book not turn in enchanted

dang mending is now stackable

[subtle cove]

its likely abug that doesnt auto change the book into enchanted_book

[pliant kite]

Is there an event that updates every tick and can detect player moving?

[random flint]

Wuat de hell

What version is dat

[halcyon phoenix]

made a workaround convert all book to enchanted ones and enchant them

[halcyon phoenix]

latest

I should post this to PheonixSC subreddit

[random flint]

Then "minecraft:enchanted_book" is a thing?

xd

[pliant kite]

anyone

[subtle cove]

youd have to make a function to check movements every tick

[halcyon phoenix]

ye

[halcyon phoenix]

does getVelocity works with that?

never used it

[subtle cove]

velocity changes either when player moved or got-moved

[halcyon phoenix]

does it output 0 when not moving?

[subtle cove]

0,0,0 as xyz

yes

[halcyon phoenix]

then that could work i gues as a afk detector

[random flint]

Will an entity (especially a player) stop getting pushed by water flow if I set their underwater movement attribute to zero?

how to detect player jump?

[thin steeple]

player.isJumping

[pliant kite]

can script attack as a player? like when player jumping?

[thin steeple]

huh

[fiery solar]

You can cause damage to an entity through script and specify the source of the damage as the player

I'd imagine objects are faster

hi
con i ask something in here ?
its about block.location....

[fiery solar]

It depends what you're doing with them

[last latch]

retrieve data from 50 thousand other values?

[unique dragon]

just ask

[fiery solar]

It's hard to know for sure without more details, but Map is faster in almost all cases with that many values.
