Script API General

[subtle cove]

just say them name ;-;

[cold grove]

I think you make your script only asking here isnt?

[buoyant canopy]

yeah, this one is better

[untold magnet]

i think rItems?.itemStack?.typeId should fix it

[amber granite]

My brain

[quick shoal]

Ok

Anyway, I will try rItems?.itemStack?.typeId

[buoyant canopy]

yeah, but it's less optimized

[subtle cove]

that works a swell

[cold grove]

The @subtle cove fix also is more efficent

[quick shoal]

Which is better

Ok I use this
getEntities({type:'item'})

Thanks for yall

[untold magnet]

lemme see

[subtle cove]

come again after another bug
we'll torture thy bugs

[amber granite]

Are u sure ?

[untold magnet]

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

const eItems = ['minecraft:diamond'] // add the items ID's here
system.runInterval(() => {
  const dimension = ['overworld', 'nether', 'the_end'].map(dim => {
    for (const item of world.getDimension(dim).getEntities({ type: 'item' })) {
      if (eItems?.includes(item?.typeId)) item.remove();
    };
  });;
});;```

like so?

[quick shoal]

I think this is real problem

Oh now just remaining syntax erro

[untold magnet]

@quick shoal try this ig

[buoyant canopy]

you don't need the const dimension = part

[quick shoal]

I know so I removed it

[untold magnet]

it should remove the item entity from all dimensions not only overworld or nether

[subtle cove]

tOpIc PoRtAllll: https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1301464443162460221

[untold magnet]

I'll go eat something

im so hungry

[buoyant canopy]

are you trying to remove all the items with the types in the array from all dimensions?

[untold magnet]

that's what is supposed to happen

[quick shoal]

Wdym

[buoyant canopy]

what are you trying to do?

[quick shoal]

I'm just remove the
const dimension = [...

[untold magnet]

removing the item from one dimension only or all 3 dimensions?

[quick shoal]

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1301464443162460221

I'm just want to avoid player drop the item in ui

[untold magnet]

so u need the dimensions

[untold magnet]

removing the item entity from all dimensions is what u need

avoid more issues

[buoyant canopy]

switch the map with a forEach ```js
import { system } from '@minecraft/server'

const eItems = ['minecraft:diamond']
system.runInterval(() => {
['overworld', 'nether', 'the_end'].forEach(dim => {
const dimension = world.getDimension(dim)
const items = dimension.getEntities({ type: 'item' })
for (const item of items) {
if (eItems?.includes(item?.typeId)) item.remove()
}
})
})

[quick shoal]

No need my map doesn't allow player go to nether or end

And the code is finally working without any error now!!!

[buoyant canopy]

nice

[subtle cove]

now roam far around then use the stick

[buoyant canopy]

you could use this if you only want to remove the items in the overworld

import { system } from '@minecraft/server'

const eItems = ['minecraft:diamond']
const overworld = world.getDimension('overworld')

system.runInterval(() => {
  const items = overworld.getEntities({type: 'item'})
  items.forEach(item => {
    if (eItems.includes(item.typeId)) item.remove()
  })
})

[warm mason]

Wrong code. item is an entity, not an itemStack

import { system } from '@minecraft/server'

const eItems = ['minecraft:diamond']
const overworld = world.getDimension('overworld')

system.runInterval(() => {
  const entities = overworld.getEntities({type: 'item'})
  entities.forEach(entity => {
    let item = entity.getComponent("minecraft:item").itemStack
    if (eItems.includes(item.typeId)) entity.remove()
  })
})```

[amber granite]

@subtle cove

[subtle cove]

sup

[amber granite]

The code u gave me

Works in an odd way

How to fix that

So lemme clear something

[subtle cove]

make a post 1st

[amber granite]

Ok

[subtle cove]

this seems like a long conv

[amber granite]

Done

[olive rapids]

Hi, can someone help me edit a script? I don't know how the script works, and I'm looking for someone to fix the script of an addon that performs the function of a kits item.

[quick shoal]

Guys who can tell me how to add an owner to an entity with inventory components. And also only the owner can open the entity inventory.

[subtle cove]

chest.addTag(player.id)

[quick shoal]

No I want to avoid another player who not is owner to open the ui

So I need to add a lock at each UI entity

Can I use this??
playerInteractWithEntity

[subtle cove]

yeah...

[quick shoal]

world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.subscribe((eventData) => {
    const player = eventData.source;
    const entity = eventData.entity;
    if (entity.typeId === 'chest:ui') {
    const ownerId = entity.getDynamicProperty('id');
    if (ownerId !== player.id) {
    eventData.cancel = true
    }
  }
});

[quick shoal]

I always thought that playerInteractWithEntity was not used for this purpose.

[quick shoal]

No way the debugger is offline..

Every time debugger go offline just when I want to test the code

[granite badger]

You might wanna start using vscode and typescript to help you scripting

[random flint]

why not just test in-game?

[quick shoal]

Sry im using phone to coding

[subtle cove]

const player = eventData.player;
const entity = eventData.target;

[quick shoal]

Oh just B and b

[quick shoal]

*Sry I sent incorrect

[amber granite]

Does anyone know how getEntities volume works ?

[amber granite]

What dx means ._.

[subtle cove]

from the location to the other side of the cube

the distance

[amber granite]

Yeah it dosen't work tho

I put it 80 i got 94 ._.

[crude bridge]

you know in what file is the new pop up animation of the minecraft tip

[random flint]

Either its JSON UI (Resource Pack) or hardcoded OreUI

[past blaze]

I don't think this is a good idea

Vanilla blocks aren't the only ones with block states. This is too restrictive

[chrome flint]

does herobrine chest ui also displays shulker boxes' items on lores?

[granite badger]

i agreed

[wary edge]

Yeah I saw that change and surprised it wasnt mentioned in changelogs.

[granite badger]

so who's gonna give feedback to them

[past blaze]

@spring axle? (Is it ok if I ping you for this)

[valid ice]

Probably will never be supported natively by the chest UI, as that stuff is the item lore (which you can just add to the item yourself)

[wary edge]

I think this previews types are messed up. Compostable on itemstack being one of them.

[granite badger]

block states types have been released for a while now, i adapted some of the changes to jaylybot a while ago

[spring axle]

Custom block state names will work AFAIK, but the types restrict against it at the moment. You'll have to TS ignore it. Let me ask internally

[granite badger]

Some types support custom states and some don’t at the moment. Kinda annoyed at the inconsistency

[spring axle]

You can get around it like this for now: const age = perm.getState('design:crop_age' as keyof BlockStateSuperset);

[distant gulch]

Is this BDS only?

world.broadcastClientMessage('cm:sayMessage_1', 'hello');

world.afterEvents.messageReceive.subscribe(({ id, message, player }) => {
    world.sendMessage(`player: ${player.name}`);
    world.sendMessage(`id: ${id}`);
    world.sendMessage(`message: ${message}`);
});

Becuause it isnt working

@valid ice

[valid ice]

Why me

[distant gulch]

because of the [@}

[valid ice]

I don't know the answer

[wary edge]

Hilarious.

[fiery solar]

broadcastClientMessage sends a message to the Minecraft client and messageRecieve listens for messages from the client, which can't be sent through scripts.

They aren't really documented, does this even work on BDS?

[granite badger]

It's for internal use only

[distant gulch]

hmmm okay thanks

[amber granite]

Can someone help with that please

[woeful turtle]

We started a bit restrictive, but we're going to likely tweak this to be both permissive to unknown keys, and maybe to allow the ability to specify custom type mappings (if for example you have a set of typescript types for stuff you build).

[granite badger]

BlockStateArg<T>: T extends `${MinecraftBlockTypes}`
    ? T extends keyof BlockStateMapping
        ? BlockStateMapping[T]
        : never
    : Record<string, boolean | number | string>

This type used in BlockPermutation matches and resolve functions supports custom states which is nice

[wary edge]

Is there a purpose to doing this though?

[amber granite]

Hey i have notes for everyone

Anyone that gonna use
getEntities volume query option in that method, must know { u must subtract 14 from x , y , z of ur volume } to get the intended volume

Because it is bugged

[thorn flicker]

🐛

[wary edge]

That doesn't seem right.

In any case then make a bug report at Mojira.

[amber granite]

I have no mojira account

[thorn flicker]

then make one

[amber granite]

Maybe tomorrow

[amber granite]

Until they fix it , u have that note , so no one struggles with it , like i did for 8 hours

[sharp elbow]

Subtract 14?

Can you share a snippet of how you used the method?

[amber granite]

._.

Sorry i recaculate the difference it was 13

@sharp elbow

function getEntitiesMethodCorrectVolume(vector) {
return { x : vector.x-13, y: vector.y - 13 , z : vector.z - 13
}
}

[sharp elbow]

Can you share where you originally calculated the volume? In getEntities?

[sharp elbow]

This still doesn't help me. I want to see what exactly you plugged into getEntities(), in your script. You should not need to subtract anything for it to work

[amber granite]

I didn't plug anything lol

I just writed as that

[sharp elbow]

It's a figure of speech. What exactly did you write in getEntities()?

[thorn flicker]

lol

[amber granite]

function entitiesArray(dimension, entityType, loc) {
let loca = ChunkCenter(loc);
loca.x -= 40;
loca.z -= 40;
  let entities = dimension.getEntities({
    type: entityType,
    location: loca,
    volume: { x: 80, y: 80, z: 80 },
    
  });
  return entities;
}

Lol

I literally didn't plug anything in it

After i tested it in the game i found there was 13 blocks difference

Between the volume i put is an an argument

And the tested volume in the game

It s a bug

[sharp elbow]

Let's pretend ChunkCenter() returns {x: 16, y: 0, z: 16}, which is then subtracted by 40 on the x- and z-axes. This should then select entities in a volume between (-24, 0, -24) and (-24 + 80, 0 + 80, -24 + 80), which can be written as (56, 80, 56)

Is that not the behavior you are seeing?

[amber granite]

The volume property using
Dx , dy , dz

Not the subtraction of the vectors in location and volume property

[amber granite]

The volume is constant thing

It Is not the area of subtractions

[sharp elbow]

Sorry, I meant to say it selects entities in the volume

[amber granite]

Volume it still a cube 80x80x80

It won't change

Even if u put the location -8288 , -82838 - ,82828

U understand?

[distant tulip]

the volume is relative to the location

[amber granite]

Yes exactly

☠️ my English isn't englishing very well

[distant tulip]

so?

[amber granite]

So i put 80 , 80 ,80 and i got 94 , 94 , 94

After i subtract 13 and put 67 as an argument

I got 80

X80 x80 cube

[sharp elbow]

Have you sent the location of loca to the log to verify the selection is too big?

[amber granite]

So the method is bugged

[distant tulip]

let me try that

that shouldn't change anything

[amber granite]

Bro... ,_,

The location is not a factor that changes the volume

The volume will still be as u put it

[sharp elbow]

The location does change where the volume is positioned, though. So if the position is not where you expect it, it could appear as if the volume is wrong

[amber granite]

Ok lemme draw u something

[sharp elbow]

I'm well aware of how it works, I don't need an illustration. I appreciate the notion though

[amber granite]

I made a script

That make an entity spawn whenever i place a block

And that entity won't spawn until it s outsidr the first entity volume

So it can't be my fault

[sharp elbow]

"first entity volume," is this an entity's collision box? or something else

[amber granite]

No the volume i selected

[granite badger]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1067535608660107284/1256586425084940299/image.png?ex=67261a4d&is=6724c8cd&hm=03ffd0817da60ee0544e941be5ba5a67fb296259758604d8f5af59b7d276ff67&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=858&height=662

[sharp elbow]

This volume?

[amber granite]

Yes

I used that code to check

if ( entitiesArray(arguments).length === 0 ) {
// A code that spawns the entity
}

[cinder shadow]

getEntities is definitely not broken, I'm trying to understand what the issue is

[sharp elbow]

What version of Minecraft and the script API are you using?

[amber granite]

1.15.0

Stable

And it shows me in my console that it s promoted to 1.16.0

[cinder shadow]

It wasn't broken in either of those versions

[amber granite]

It is

I think

We can make a function for that with this formula:
ax+b

[cinder shadow]

there is a 0.1% chance that they mistakenly include something that makes you have to subtract 14 from every coordinate to get the correct position

Have you tried it with other numbers?

Does that discrepancy change?

I have several things that I had built out using getEntities in those versions that work perfectly fine

[amber granite]

Yes i tried 50 i got 63

[sharp elbow]

Here is a quick test I threw together for this. There are fou rcases: one inside the volume, and three just outside it, plus five on a given axis. This should be within the "13" measure you ran into issues with.

Let's see if I can get Discord to comply

[amber granite]

I created a function for that

[sharp elbow]

function VecSub(vec1, vec2) {
    return {
        x: vec2.x - vec1.y,
        y: vec2.y - vec1.y,
        z: vec2.z - vec1.z
    }
}
function findEntitiesTwoCorners(dimension: Dimension, type, vec1, vec2) {
    const Volume = VecSub(vec1, vec2);
    console.warn(`location: (${vec1.x}, ${vec1.y}, ${vec1.z})\nvolume: (${Volume.x}, ${Volume.y}, ${Volume.z})`)
    return dimension.getEntities({
        type,
        location: vec1,
        volume: VecSub(vec1, vec2)
    });
}
function test() {
    const Overworld = world.getDimension('overworld');
    const EntityType = 'minecraft:pig';
    const Corner1 = {x: -10, y: 0, z: 10};
    const Corner2 = {x: 5, y: 20, z: 30};
    console.warn(`Executing test. Corners: (${Corner1.x}, ${Corner1.y}, ${Corner1.z}) and (${Corner2.x}, ${Corner2.y}, ${Corner2.z})`)

    //Case 1: Inside volume
    const Pig1 = Overworld.spawnEntity(EntityType, {x: -5, y: 10, z: 20});
    Pig1.nameTag = 'Inside'

    //Case 2: Outside volume, +x
    const Pig2 = Overworld.spawnEntity(
        EntityType,
        VecSub({x: -5, y: 0, z: 0}, Corner2)
    );
    Pig2.nameTag = 'Outside, +x'

    //Case 3: Outside volume, +y
    const Pig3 = Overworld.spawnEntity(
        EntityType,
        VecSub({x: 0, y: -5, z: 0}, Corner2)
    );
    Pig3.nameTag = 'Outside, +y'

    //Case 4: Outside volume, +z
    const Pig4 = Overworld.spawnEntity(
        EntityType,
        VecSub({x: 0, y: 0, z: -5}, Corner2)
    );
    Pig4.nameTag = 'Outside, +z'

    console.warn(
        ...findEntitiesTwoCorners(Overworld, EntityType, Corner1, Corner2)
            .map(_ => _.nameTag)
    );

}

test()

I reduced the case count to 4 so this server would like it

Log:

[Scripting][warning]-Executing test. Corners: (-10, 0, 10) and (5, 20, 30)

[Scripting][warning]-location: (-10, 0, 10)

[Scripting][warning]-Inside

[amber granite]

y = x + 13

That s it

[sharp elbow]

Although I see my code's not quite right, hehe. It's subtracting Corner2 from 5.

[distant tulip]

it is working fine for me too

[amber granite]

Hmmm

Maybe the problem is in my version

[sharp elbow]

I think it's how you are using it. That is why I suggested logging the value of loca to make sure it's what you are expecting

[amber granite]

What version did u test on it

[sharp elbow]

1.15.0, preview 1.21.50.25

[amber granite]

Try on 1.16.0

Maybe the problem is in it

[sharp elbow]

Same results

[amber granite]

How._.

[distant tulip]

mine is 1.13.0 stable

[amber granite]

But where did i got 13

I don't get it

The volume is a relative thing

[sharp elbow]

Can you share your nebulous ChunkCenter function?

[amber granite]

Ok

function ChunkCenter(Vector) {

  const centerX = Math.floor(Vector.x) - ((Math.floor(Vector.x) + 1) % 16) + 8;
  const centerZ = Math.floor(Vector.z) - ((Math.floor(Vector.z) + 1) % 16) + 8;

  return { x: centerX, y: Vector.y, z: centerZ };
}

@distant tulip

I ll give u my version of the script and test on it

[distant tulip]

it should be only
Math.floor(x/16)*16+8
why there is +1

[amber granite]

Same

Ah let s say

[distant tulip]

no?

[amber granite]

We have 16 by 16 block chunk

We divide 16 / 2
We got 8

The blocks number in one chunk is an even number

So the chunk center should be between two blocks

Wait lemme organise my ideas

So if we want to know the location of that chunk center

We must get it weidth and length

And both devide them by 2

[distant tulip]

your math is wrong man
especially in chunk border

[amber granite]

Are u sure ._.

[distant tulip]

i am

[amber granite]

But i test it with particles

And it spawns a particle in the middle of that chunk

How s that possible?

[distant tulip]

where did that 1 come from?

[amber granite]

Idk ._. fr

Wait did u try it with 0 0 0 ?

[distant tulip]

15 15

0 0 is the same

[amber granite]

Ahm

Yeah ._.

It is

;-;

[dim tusk]

Wait, that calculation doesn't look right

[distant tulip]

that is the problem you are having
let say x is 15
the 1 you are adding make it 16 and that is another chunk
making it 24 (23 + that 1 you are adding) instead of 8

[amber granite]

Why did i add the one ._.

Anyways

How does that affect the volume

@distant tulip

That makes no sense

[distant tulip]

wdym
you are using it as a center
that shift the center 16 block than what you are intending

[amber granite]

Yeah but

I put the main block at 0 0 0

So with my incorrect function i ll get 7 as centre

And that correct

[distant tulip]

is this the code for that?

[amber granite]

Yep

[distant tulip]

no idea what are you doing wrong

[amber granite]

._.

So where is the problem;-;

[somber onyx]

I don’t understand why you use item.

[subtle cove]

i thought u were using item

anyway, the way fac was defined is prob the issue

[somber onyx]

export const Faction_DB = new JsonDatabase("faction")

with https://github.com/Con-JS-Development/Con-Database/blob/main/con-database.js#L82

[subtle cove]

did u use

let fac = Faction_DB.get(name);
if (!fac) {
  fac = somthing()
}

or any check that an object is predefined in the db

[distant gulch]

Is it somehow possible to use Buffer ?

[slow walrus]

no

this is all the supported stuff https://wiki.bedrock.dev/scripting/api-environment.html#support

[distant gulch]

Hmm okay..

Anyways Thank you

[subtle cove]

its outdated now eh

console.warn(JSON.stringify(Object.keys(Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors(globalThis)),null,3))

__date_clock got removed

[slow walrus]

perhaps someone should update it

[wary edge]

Feel free to contribute.

[sage portal]

Is the isGliding thing only something to be read, or can we actually disable players from gliding?

[distant gulch]

readonly

[sage portal]

What a shame

Thanks though

[olive rapids]

Does anyone know how to create a script to create custom death messages?

[dim tusk]

Too good to be true 😞

[shy leaf]

of course not

[abstract cave]

is it me or can i not set a scoreboard through before events

[distant gulch]

Its you

let me explain it to you

[abstract cave]

😐

[distant gulch]

beforeEvents are read-only, that means you cant change things atm like a scrreboard, player tag e.t.c

so you need to run it one tick delayed

system.run(() => {
    // here
});

system.run will run the callback in the next tick

Look

[chilly fractal]

Firstly, many errors in the code for example "world" & "system" are "World" & "System". Secondly Minecraft Text Too Light. Thirdly No Realms Or Marketplace Buttons. and much more errors

[distant gulch]

"This function cant 5e called in read-onlv mode"

[abstract cave]

gotcha

[distant gulch]

alright

[abstract cave]

ty

[distant gulch]

No problem

feel free to dm me when youve got problems

[wheat condor]

system.runJob(function* timer() {
    const start = Date.now();
    while (Date.now() - start < 1000) {
        yield;
    }
    console.warn("1 sec");
});

why does console tell me that runjob expects a generator

[distant tulip]

system.runJob(timer());

function* timer() {
    const start = Date.now();
    while (Date.now() - start < 1000) {
        yield;
    }
    console.warn("1 sec");
}

[wheat condor]

thanks

[slow walrus]

system.runJob(function* timer() {
    const start = Date.now();
    while (Date.now() - start < 1000) {
        yield;
    }
    console.warn("1 sec");

[slow walrus]

you gotta call the gen function

[halcyon phoenix]

is it possible to detect queries in scripts?

I want to detect when an an entity is q.is_delayed_attacking

[sage portal]

@halcyon phoenix best thing you can do is use a behavior animation controller to trigger a scriptevent.

Otherwise, no, we can't detect that yet

[halcyon phoenix]

BPAC?

[sage portal]

yes

[chilly fractal]

Aight so what is the best way to do the following:

• Each Second I Loop Over Every Player, And Loop Through Their Inventory To Find An Item.
• Then, Depending On Its Variation I Loop Over An Object To Find The Suitable Key, Then add an effect or more to the player.

[amber granite]

What u wanna do ?

[chilly fractal]

Yeah I got some wrong explanation

Code will explain better

[slow walrus]

you wanna apply an effect to each player depending on some type of item they have in their inventory?

[amber granite]

Right ?

[chilly fractal]

Close

[amber granite]

What about

Detecting when the player receive that item

Instead

[chilly fractal]

import { world, system } from "@minecraft/server";
import { hasGemInEquSlot } from "../functions/index.js";

let players;
system.runInterval(() => {
  players = world.getPlayers();
  for (let player of players) {
    if (hasGemInEquSlot(player)) { // No Value Or True Means It's In Offhand
      let effect = getGemEffect(item);
      if (!effect) return;
      player.addEffect(effect.id);
    } else if (hasGemInEquSlot(player, false)) { // False Means It's In Mainhand
      if (!player.isSneaking()) return;
      // if player is sneaking and move is found do the move and send cooldown message if already used, but I wanna do a cooldown to the cooldown so the player chat isn't spammed....
    }
  }
}, 20);

Code is not complete it has errors I'm just looking for ways to optimize when I actually implement

And don't mind my explanation at first

It's uhh

Weird, cuz I'm not creative with explaining things

[slow walrus]

you're only checking the mainhand or offhand?

[chilly fractal]

Both

Offhand for effects

Mainhand for moves

I got the offhand part

[slow walrus]

yeah I mean you're only checking those two

[chilly fractal]

But it's not very optimized

[chilly fractal]

Ye ye, not whole inventory.

[slow walrus]

yeah I mean in that case this is probably the best way

there's not really any other way to do it

if you're worried about lag, you could put it all in a runJob, though, it might mean some players get effects applied later

[chilly fractal]

Offhand isn't much of a problem ig...

[slow walrus]

but that's only if you're going above the limit, which hopefully you shouldn't be

[chilly fractal]

What is worrying is the mainhand

[slow walrus]

why?

[amber granite]

What s the item's name ?

And how to get it ?

[chilly fractal]

No?

Are you asking me if that's the problem or in general?

[chilly fractal]

Cuz I wanna trigger a move if ur sneaking and having a gem, if you already used it I wanna send u a cooldown message, I don't wanna spam ur chat so I need a cooldown to the cooldown message, how would I implement the double cooldowns and isn't it gonna be laggy?

[slow walrus]

why do you need to "cooldown" the message?

[chilly fractal]

So it doesn't spam you?

Actually you know what?

[amber granite]

I wanna know

[slow walrus]

hmm

[chilly fractal]

I came up was an idea

Just using actionbar

[chilly fractal]

I created many items with tiers and stages. And all I do in js part is check If the item starts with the item prefix for example 'youritemprefix:gemname_gem_tier1_2'

[amber granite]

I have an idea

[chilly fractal]

Also I just realized my brain is erroring I wanna check if the player double sneaked

[slow walrus]

Try something like this

system.runInterval(() => {
    system.runJob(function*(){
        const players = world.getPlayers()
        for (let i = 0; i < players.length; i++) {
            const player = players[i]

            const equipment = player.getComponent('equippable')
            if (equipment.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Offhand).typeId === 'whatever') {
                // run code
            }
            
            if (equipment.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Mainhand).typeId === 'other thing') {
                // run code
            }

            yield
        }
    }())
}, 20)

[chilly fractal]

Like sneaked and then stopped then sneaked

Not just sneak

[slow walrus]

jsut replace those if checks with your code stuff

[chilly fractal]

My bad

[amber granite]

You last hope is making ur item in fixed place

Like the last slot of the player inventory

[sharp elbow]

Cooldown is pretty easy. Store the current timestamp plus your cooldown period as a variable on the player, then check to see if the time stamp is bigger than that variable value.

[chilly fractal]

My bad yall

[amber granite]

Make a script for that, make it put ur item in the last slots of players inventory

So u will check only the last slots

[slow walrus]

not needed

[chilly fractal]

My problem is just tiny, it's how to detect double sneak

[slow walrus]

he's only checking the mainhand and offhand

[chilly fractal]

My mind is just not very focused

[slow walrus]

ig the only way rn is to just poll the isSneaking variable on each player

[chilly fractal]

So I talk about problems I faced before not what I need rn, sorry sorry... uh so anyone know avatar addon? Released Maybe a year ago? Well uh double sneaking (sneak+stopSneaking+sneak) = move triggered

[slow walrus]

but that won't be great for performance

[chilly fractal]

Poll?

[slow walrus]

check

pretty much

in a interval

every tick

since we don't have input events

[chilly fractal]

I don't remember how it was done

[slow walrus]

you keep track of the previous sneaking value, then compare it with the current

then you can check for chains

[chilly fractal]

I think it done using an animation controller + script api part

[slow walrus]

anim controller is probably a much better way

[chilly fractal]

It wasn't laggy at all tbh

So yeah I am gonna do that

[sharp elbow]

It can be done pretty easily with an animation controller and a timer, provided you can edit the player's definition. Some folks don't like doing that

[chilly fractal]

Just that I have no idea how to do that

Now since this is gonna be done in an addon I'll use on my server I don't care if I edit player json or other properties

The problem here is how?

[slow walrus]

set up a few anim controller states, like sneak, sneak_stop, double_sneak, and then in each check the one's before and the current sneak value and some timer value

or something along those lines

like double_sneak checks sneak_stop if it's true, and if the player is currently sneaking, and if it's within some timeframe

[chilly fractal]

I haven't worked with anim controller ever in my life

[slow walrus]

sneak_stop checks if sneak is true, and player is currently not sneaking, in some timeframe

and sneak checks if the player is sneaking

[sharp elbow]

I would make four states.
"default"

• →"sneak1" when the player sneaks (q.is_sneaking)

"sneak1"

• →"sneakc" when the player stops sneaking (!q.is_sneaking)

"sneakc"

• play a timer
• →"sneak2" when the player sneaks again (q.is_sneaking)
• →"default" if a timer elapses before the player sneaks again (q.any_animation_finished)

"sneak2"

• Call /scriptevent
• →"default" when the player stops sneaking (!q.is_sneaking)

[slow walrus]

you essentially want a triple toggle state

[chilly fractal]

I do remember the script api part was checking if the sneak ticks currently are more than 360 (= 1.5 seconds, it's not ticks, I just have no idea what it was) and if was true it means u gotta sneak again

[slow walrus]

first sneak toggles on, unsneak remains toggled on, then the next sneak toggles final, and then final will toggle itself back to off

[slow walrus]

10 seconds is 200 ticks

[chilly fractal]

I know

[slow walrus]

oh lol

read too quick

[sharp elbow]

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/animation-controllers/animation-controllers-intro.html#app

[chilly fractal]

Thanks for the help yall! Really appreciate it!

[slow walrus]

hmm I'll try write something

idk if it'll work

but should be close

[sharp elbow]

My controller recommendation will also involve animation-based timers, which you can read about here: https://wiki.bedrock.dev/entities/timers.html#animation-based-timers

this might work? never used them before but it looks like it should lmao

                }
            }
        }
    }
}

then just add a scriptevent listener in your scripts

replace 30 with whatever amount of time you want

and namespace:double_sneak with whatever

@sharp elbow you reckon that'll work?

[slow walrus]

@chilly fractal

[sharp elbow]

I like that better than my approach. Should feel nicer since it won't trigger the ability after holding sneak for more than 1.5 seconds, then tapping Sneak

[chilly fractal]

Oh sorry I was reading the docs

I'll give it a try

[slow walrus]

ah the life_time is in seconds

[sharp elbow]

Only thing I'd change is the transition 'double_sneak'→'default,' since it will immediately transition back to 'sneak'

Ah, I was thinking of q.time_stamp. My mistake

[slow walrus]

hmm I mean it should

[sharp elbow]

It should? That would mean tapping sneak once successively will trigger the ability

[slow walrus]

@chilly fractal replace the 30 with like 1 or something, it should be however many seconds you want to allow between inputs before it gets reset

[chilly fractal]

0.7

Would that work?

[slow walrus]

it should yeah

[slow walrus]

ah true

it should transition once they unsneak again

ngl I kinda wanna try make something with that now

seems cool

[chilly fractal]

Isn't there a res part of this??? Or am I tripping

[slow walrus]

you could do like a "charge" up by doing a scriptevent at the start of the double sneak, and then another one when they release sneak

[slow walrus]

yeah you needa add the controller to your player.json somewhere

[chilly fractal]

No I am resource pack

Or I am I understanding this wrong

[slow walrus]

hmm no it shouldn't need any resource pack stuff

this is behaviour

[sharp elbow]

Oh, no, nothing in the resource pack needs changed for this implementation. Controllers can exist in both the behavior and resource pack.

[chilly fractal]

Alright then

[sharp elbow]

They do similar things, but have different responsibilities. Server controllers cannot animate any bones, and client controllers cannot execute commands

[slow walrus]

client is resource and server is behaviour

[slow walrus]

in your player.json add this

"animations": {
  "double_sneak_controller": "controller.animation.player.double_sneak"
},
"scripts": {
  "animate": [
    "double_sneak_controller"
  ]
}

I think

So is this correct?

Also how'd I put the player name?

In the message?

[chilly fractal]

Alright

[slow walrus]

I'm not sure, but I think the scriptevemt might get sent with the player as the source. Just try get it working and then console log the scriptevent's sourceType variable

[maiden ivy]

Does the item use event work for air?

[thin steeple]

unfortunately not

[past blaze]

Can't wait 'til we can directly detect use and attack input

[deft nest]

Guys why is debug not working

[sharp elbow]

Can you elaborate?

[deft nest]

#debug-playground The bot works for me for some reason

[sage portal]

How do you add an elytra onto a player's chest slot?

I keep getting errors whenever I try it myself.

[thorn flicker]

show your code.

[sage portal]

const elytraGet = damagingEntity.getComponent('equippable')
elytraGet.setEquipment("Chest", new ItemStack("minecraft:elytra"))

[thorn flicker]

thats correct

show the error

[grave thistle]

how do i use block.getComponent(BlockComponentTypes.Inventory) to read a chests inventory?

[thin steeple]

well to read, you could use the getItem method

and to read every slot, use getItem and a for loop

also, you can simply do block?.getComponent("inventory")

[dire ferry]

world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.subscribe((event) => {
  world.sendMessage("after event");
});

world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.subscribe((event) => {
  world.sendMessage("before event");
});

beforeEvent works, afterEvent doesn't work... wtf?
on stable 1.15.0

[sage portal]

sorry for the late response, an emergency happened right after that comment

[thorn flicker]

you didnt import itemStack

[sage portal]

Ah.
Okay, yeah that makes sense

Thanks

[thorn flicker]

lol

I knew that was the issue

had to make sure

[dim tusk]

After events of the player interact entity only works with entities that does have the component minecraft:interact that also happens with the player interact block, it only triggers when you successfully opens a UI example a crafting table if you use after events on blocks that doesn't swing your arms it won't trigger it no matter what...

Gets?

[dim tusk]

And before events is only beta

[dire ferry]

That makes sense, thanks.

[dire ferry]

they both went stable in 1.21.40

[dim tusk]

Really? Are you sure? Fuck yeah... I rarely use that anymore lmfao

Thanks

[remote oyster]

https://stirante.com/script/server/1.15.0/classes/WorldBeforeEvents.html

[dim tusk]

But, it does that too in other versions

It has no beta and beta version but it doesn't work on non beta... Oh well I'll just test it

[remote oyster]

playerInteractWithEntity in beforeEvents isn't stable prior to 1.15.0.

Here is 1.14.0:

[halcyon phoenix]

How do I add a custom key for a summoned entity?

on block I used to get the blockLocation but a summoned entity seems different

[wary edge]

What?

[halcyon phoenix]

I want to add a unique string to it

like an Id so that I can identify it uniquely

[wary edge]

Just do entity.id?

[halcyon phoenix]

nonono

[halcyon phoenix]

basically I summon multiple entities and they are the same type so I need to add a identifier to them when I summon them

[wary edge]

Yeah...entiy.id or dynamic properties?

[halcyon phoenix]

oh wait

I thought typeId but

yeah entity.id is unique form other id

Thanksss

[halcyon phoenix]

enchants.addEnchantment({type:"fire_aspect", level:1});

what am I doing wrong?

[wary edge]

https://stirante.com/script/server/1.15.0/classes/EnchantmentType.html

[dim tusk]

in type you need to put new EnchantmentType('<id>') and import EnchantmentType in the server

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

enchants.addEnchantment({type: new EnchantmentType("fire_aspect") , level:1});```

[halcyon phoenix]

ahh I see

new EnchantmentType("fire_aspect")

like that ?

[dim tusk]

uhuh

[dim tusk]

guys, is it possible to know if player get hurt in front? like fron, back or sides

[past blaze]

You can compare the position of the player with the position of the damage source, along with the player's viewing direction

[dim tusk]

oh yeah, that's what I'm thinking.. thanks bro

[past blaze]

I'm just glad you understood. I thought I was gonna have to make up some code for you 😅

... In retrospect that kinda sounds demeaning. Sorry

[dim tusk]

don't worry I'm stupid but i know how to do thing i just needed someone to tell me how

[scarlet lynx]

Heya

Can you enchant a item that has been spawned

Not in a inverntory or anything

[halcyon phoenix]

can you store an array in dynamicProperties?

[scarlet lynx]

Yes im pretty sure

[halcyon phoenix]

entity.setDynamicProperties({state1: this1, state2: this2, state3: this3})
would that work?

[scarlet lynx]

Um

yeah I thinmk

[halcyon phoenix]

or

const states = [];
entity.setDynamicProperties("States", states);

[valid ice]

JSON.stringify() & JSON.parse()

[wispy iron]

Do we know what the max string length is? I know it’s definitely not the 32k limit that some people have mentioned

[valid ice]

If it ain't 32k, I dunno what it is

I've had it cap out at 32k a few times for me before

[wispy iron]

It seems to cap a lot sooner for me

[valid ice]

Hmm

[tawdry wedge]

[shy leaf]

...why is projectile not a valid damage cause?

[abstract cave]

is there a way i can make a variable that remains the same even if you restart the world, i dont mean constants, i want it to be changed if the player runs a custom command with a value, but it keeps getting redeclared every world restart, can anyone help

[dim tusk]

nope you can't, you need to use dynamicProperties unfortunately

it will delete the things you stored once the world is closed

[dim tusk]

it should??

[shy leaf]

i dunno its throwing an error?????

[dim tusk]

you did this? damageSource.damagingProjectile

[abstract cave]

dynamic properties, how does that work

[abstract cave]

dynamic properties or the const

[shy leaf]

no i was trying to use it on applyDamage

[dim tusk]

the dynamic properties will not be removed unless the uuid of the addon is changed or the addon is removed while const or let will be removed once you closed it

[dim tusk]

lemme see your code

[shy leaf]

i yeeted it away

just try applyDamage with projectile as damageCause

[abstract cave]

does it accept values or just text

[dim tusk]

string, numbers, float

[dim tusk]

you could use it on world, itemStack, and entities not currently on blocks..

//set
itemStack.setDynamicProperty('<id>', <value>); //values can be string, float, interger

//get
const dynamicProperty = itemStack.getDynamicProperty('<id>');
console.error(dynamicProperty);

[dim tusk]

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe(ev => {

I did it lmao, sorry it took too long I'm doing an manifest creator in html....

just asking if i could do better

[abstract cave]

does it require a player, entity, or item to work, can it work independently on its own

[dim tusk]

nah.... as longas the thing you setting is there it's good

[abstract cave]

??, wdym....

so it can work as a standalone variable, or not?

[dim tusk]

yeah

[abstract cave]

okee

ty

[slow walrus]

why "unfortunately"?

[dim tusk]

Hmm? Did I do wrong?

[slow walrus]

yep, use a dynamicProperty.

as said before, you can use it on these things: world, Player, Entity, ItemStack, depending on your use case

for example, if you wanted to store a global command prefix, you would use the world's dynamic properties, with something like this:

world.setDynamicProperty('command_prefix', '!')

const command_prefix = world.getDynamicProperty('command_prefix') // '!'

If you had settings that changed per player, like lets say a rank, you would use the player's dynamic properties;

const player = // some player

player.setDynamicProperty('rank', 'Member')

const player_rank = player.getDynamicProperty('rank') // 'Member'

dynamic properties can be strings, numbers, booleans, or Vector3s. If you want to store objects, you can do so by JSON.stringify'ing the object, then setting the dynamic property to that string, and later you can JSON.parse the string after getting the dynamic property

[slow walrus]

nah I was wondering why you said unfortunately

it's not really an unfortunate thing lol

[dim tusk]

Lol, I don't really know what word is the right one mybad

[chilly fractal]

Wait what the hell

Oh nvm

I think I might be trippin or something cuz I saw my time was 10:20 and coddy sent the message at 10:31

Ima take your advise tho

Gimme 1 sec to test

It's okay to use / inside of BP anim controller cause it's required

While if inside of entity.json you can't.

thanks so much

[slow walrus]

👍

[chilly fractal]

Yo yall is parseInt supported?

In mcbe's quickJS

I don't think so but here are all the document links, feel free to give them a look:
Official Docs
Jayly Docs

[slow walrus]

yes

[chilly fractal]

Betttt

[distant tulip]

it dose
you can also use
Number("x")

[chilly fractal]

I know, just I don't think it's gonna work like this:

(parseInt(parts[3].replace('cracked', '')) - 4)

Basically getting points of gem based on typeId, so yeah

Actually it would work anyway

[abstract cave]

is there a way i can make it so it only gets set once on world creation

[slow walrus]

test if it's undefined, and then set it

[chilly fractal]

Idk I like sticking to what I make the first time, unless there are performance differences or like overall the new thing is better than the old thing

[slow walrus]

otherwise don't set it

[abstract cave]

what would be better for this, system.runInterval or playerSpawn after events

[slow walrus]

world.afterEvents.worldInitialize

[halcyon phoenix]

I cant store an array in dynamicProperties

that dude scammed me

setDynamicProperties("locs", {x: 1,y:2,z:3})

It said conversion failed expected type, Number

[halcyon phoenix]

it didn't work my friend

[cold grove]

You store them as strings using JSON.strigify

[halcyon phoenix]

how do you unstring them?

[cold grove]

JSON.parse

[halcyon phoenix]

Thanks

[remote oyster]

This doesn't look right either. You showed an example for a Vector3 Type which dynamic properties accept. The error would not be "expected Number". I'm only pointing this out so if anyone else reads your comment it will not confuse them. Your error was more involved, more in-depth, which isn't shown here. Outside a number, string, boolean, or Vector3, you will have to stringify it as Tadase mentioned.

[random flint]

You were probably on an older version of Minecraft or Script engine. DynamicProperty is capable of storing Vector3 {x,y,z} without stringifying it.

An Array looks like this: [ 8, 9, 2], it is considered as an Object. And Vector3 looks like this: {x:0,y:-3,z:9}, it's not an Array but also considered as an Object

[thin steeple]

const array = [1, 3, 4, 5];
world.setDynamicProperty("myproperty", JSON.stringify(array))

and the oppposite

const propertyarray = world.getDynamicProperty("myproperty");
JSON.parse(propertyarray)

[crude bridge]

Hi

Someone know how can i change a const but in game

Like with a chat command or idk

Is it possible?

[chrome flint]

you can't change a const, but you can change a let

[crude bridge]

How

[warm mason]

A constant - no way, that’s why it’s a constant. Use "let"

Describe in more detail what you need

[crude bridge]

i need to make a prefix for my chat command but i want to make it castomizable

[warm mason]

Do you want a custom prefix or command?

[crude bridge]

prefix

[chrome flint]

just do dynamic properties

[warm mason]

You can use the getDynamicProperty and setDynamicProperty methods on the player to set a prefix for himself. Wait, I'll write an example

[chrome flint]

send me your chat event snippet

[crude bridge]

thx

[chilly fractal]

Yo any math nerds online?

[warm mason]

world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe(data => {
  let player = data.sender
  let message = data.message
  let prefix = player.getDynamicProperty("prefix") || "!"
  if (message.startsWith(prefix)) {
    // command
  } else {
    // message
  }
})

[warm mason]

@crude bridge

[crude bridge]

thxx

[warm mason]

What do you need?

[chilly fractal]

Some way to calculate the amount of blocks you pass in a second and multiple it by 3 and then applyKnockback in the direction you are looking

Basically dash but calculated

Not fixed value, rather on how much speed you are

Moving at, so speed effect matters

And also any entity that is found in the raycast that starts from your head location (before dashing) is damaged, I can do the api parts my self, just the raycasting and math stuff is too advanced for me

Cuz I'm currently running on yesterday's sleep. (I slept 4am, and I didn't drink any coffee or tea or anything today so I'm 🙃)

[warm mason]

let oldPos = {}

system.runInterval(() => {
  for (let player of world.getAllPLayers()) {
    let oldLoc = oldPos[player.name] || player.location
    if (distance(player.location, oldLoc) > 3) { // If block per second > 3
      let view = player.getViewDirection()
      let targets = []
      let loop = 0
      let interval = system.runInterval(() => {
        loop++
        if (loop > 20) {
          system.clearRun(interval)
          for (let target of targets) {
            target.applyDamage(5, {
              damagingEntity: player,
              cause: "ramAttack"
            })
          }
        } else {
          for (let entity of player.dimension.getEntities({ location: player.location, maxDistance: 1.5 }).filter(entity => !targets.some(ent => entity.id == ent.id) && entity.id != player.id)) {
            targets.push(entity)
          }
        }
      })
      player.applyKnockback(view.x, view.z, 3, view.y*3)
      delete oldPos[player.name]
    } else {
      oldPos[player.name] = player.location
    }
  }
})

That's not all!

[chilly fractal]

Wut

[warm mason]

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

[chilly fractal]

And what about the raycast?

(If you can do it, and if you want to do it)

[warm mason]

?

[chilly fractal]

This

[warm mason]

@chilly fractal

[chilly fractal]

Alright!

Thanks!

Really appreciate it bro!

[chilly fractal]

Also I don't this anymore

[warm mason]

I made a mistake in the code. Copy new

[chilly fractal]

Thanks bro I really appreciate it!

[grave thistle]

is the second vector3 in getEntitiesFromRay the distance from the first vector3. so getEntitiesFromRay(block.location, { x: 0, y: 10, z: 0}) would get all entities 10 blocks above the block's location?

[thorn flicker]

the other vector must use the vector properties from the block location aswell.

otherwise, it'll legit try to do a raycast from the block location to the coords 0, 10, 0 in the world

const bl = block.center()
block.dimension.getEntitiesFromRay(bl, { x: bl.x, y: bl.y + 10, z: bl.z})

(I recommend center)

[terse pulsar]

How I get the player that send a message correctly?

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

world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe((eventData) => {
  const player = eventData.sender;
  switch (event.source) {
    case '!adm':
      eventData.cancel = true;
      if (player.isOp) {
        player.sendMessage("Command lauched")
      } else {
        player.sendMessage("Only admins!")
      }
      break;
    default: break;
  }
})

[thorn flicker]

player is not the issue, it's event.source

put eventData.message

[terse pulsar]

I get that from bedrock.wiki

[thorn flicker]

okay.

seems like a mistake

[near siren]

Is there a way to clear the mainhand of a player in stable?

[warm mason]

player.getComponent("minecraft:equippable").setEquipment("Mainhand", undefined)

[near siren]

Thank you

[plush moss]

how i can add health to a player with this
player.getComponent("health");

[thorn flicker]

you could also just leave it blank

[warm mason]

hp.setCurrentValue(hp.currentValue + 1)

[plush moss]

thx

[shy leaf]

after some testing, i found out that a player-owned projectile that deals damage would get wolves to track on the target

for some reason, projectiles that dont deal damage somehow doesnt get wolves to track the target when its summoned via scripts

but manually throwing the projectile does (tested with snowball)

i dont remember if shoot function on projectile component is required though

[grave thistle]

So the second vector3 is deffo the second location to scan to? I ask only because there is a maxDistance option in the raycast options

[near siren]

When playing a music disc, what part of the hud is that? Its lower than actionbar

[slow walrus]

wrong channel

[covert beacon]

Does anyone know how to get the item_id_aux of the armor currently being used with a script?

[random flint]

Can't get the aux ID dynamically. Your best bet is to Map each typeId and their respective Aux Id

Can you get the world's seed in ScriptAPI?

[covert beacon]

but what if minecraft updates, won't the id change?

[covert beacon]

I don't know, I don't understand scripting 😅

[random flint]

yes.

That's why it isn't "dynamic"

[covert beacon]

indo kan?🗿

[random flint]

Indo itu apa

[covert beacon]

hmm in your opinion what is the best way to display the id from scripting in the HUD?

[random flint]

ActionFormData can directly use texture path from your resource pack.

Since it doesn't rely on Aux id, it's always be consistent. Though, blocks texture might need a different handling

"textures/items/diamond" will show diamond.

[covert beacon]

in the hud?

[random flint]

don't know tbh. I barely touch jsonUI.

Can you share the full error? @terse pulsar "anonymous" just means the name of your function is undefined, which happens when you use arrow functions () => {}

[terse pulsar]

I got many errors but I gonna get one

One sec

[terse pulsar]

There is

[Scripting][error]-ReferenceError: 'player' is not defined    at <anonymous> (main.js:15)

I've tried with "eventData.player" but don't work

[sharp elbow]

You tried it with filiationForm.show(eventData.player).then(r => { specifically? No array indexing?

[honest spear]

you are referencing unknown array here player[0] out of the scope so be careful with that as you don't even know how much players are there, you better use that player form event

[distant tulip]

eventData.playerName...

[terse pulsar]

I tried it too

[distant tulip]

it is
eventData.player

[honest spear]

playerName is string you shouldn't really rely on that

[distant tulip]

you need force show there anyway

[warm mason]

function showForm(player) {
  let filiationForm = new MessageFormData();
  filiationForm.title("Choose Your Filiation");

maybe increase the runTimeout delay a bit

What is that?

A

I see

10 ticks is a half second?

[warm mason]

Now it's ready

so basically when the player is joining the world the game can't show forms to hem
so it get canceled
we repeat the showing of the form until it succeed

The damage function in entityHurt is based on how many hearts entity loses right?

[buoyant canopy]

i think it's the number of half hearts

[distant tulip]

depend on a lot of stuff
the entity can have resistance or damage modifier

wait dose entityHurt give the damage applied or the final damage received?

[dim tusk]

Probably I guess?

[dim tusk]

You gave me an idea. I want to make my entity doesn't receive any effects I'll just clear entities effects

[terse pulsar]

How i make two files or more keep running?

I use import?

[distant tulip]

there is probably a component or something for it

[dim tusk]

I don't remember it... The only entities that receive any effects are arrows and boats

[distant tulip]

yes
it wont keep running
there is the initial run and what ever you did there will be applied
events runinterval and so on

[dim tusk]

I'll just check documentations

[distant tulip]

warden? ender dragon?

[terse pulsar]

So I use export on other files and import on my entry file?

[distant tulip]

yeah

[terse pulsar]

Ok

How i export 🥲

[dim tusk]

I can't find any components the things like this are hardcoded to the entities I guess?

[quick shoal]

The compiler said just can 3-4 argument..

Then how

[random flint]

if u want randomized blocks u gotta do set each block

[slow walrus]

randomize the integrity for each structure

[quick shoal]

How

[random flint]

show em bro, imma gone for the next 30 minutes

[quick shoal]

I don't strong at Math.random()

[slow walrus]

Math.random gives you a number from 0 to 1 so it's perfect for this, no extra stuff needed

[random flint]

Math.random never returns exactly 1, but it can returns 0

[slow walrus]

if you wanna do it completely random, just do this:

const stoneChance = Math.random();
const copperChance = Math.random();
const coalChance = Math.random();

[slow walrus]

yeah ik

0 inclusive -> 1 exclusive

0 <= Math.random() < 1

[warm mason]

As I understand it, the problem is that the structure is always the same?

[quick shoal]

Yea

The ore always spawn on same location

But I not any time now so I can't fix😭

[warm mason]

try this

It says that it is always random, but it seems to me that this is not so

for example:

world.structureManager.place('stone', dimension, location, {
  integrity: stoneChance,
  integritySeed: Math.random() + ""
});

It would be better to just place blocks using a script (because this way you won’t have empty spaces)

[indigo eagle]

How can I fix this?

[cold grove]

Specify main.js in manifest

[indigo eagle]

What do you mean by "specify" in the manifest?

I already made this

[subtle cove]

and the dependency...

[cold grove]

It works, thanks!

[indigo eagle]

How can I fix this?

[subtle cove]

spelling

[indigo eagle]

Thanks

[quick shoal]

Now I will try this

@warm mason thank u very much

It working as perfectly

[past blaze]

What a peculiar button layout

[hazy nebula]

why world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe(data => { not work on 1.14.0-beta?

[random flint]

Good question. It should. Perhaps your script version isn't supposed to be on 1.14.0-beta

Or... you got a logic or syntax error!

Turn on the content log bruh

[distant tulip]

maybe send any errors you have

[random flint]

100% ur manifest

Check if pack got cached into ur world folder

[hazy nebula]

I don't think there is anything wrong with my code!

[random flint]

do you have beta api toggled on in ur world?

the toggle... in the setting

[hazy nebula]

yes it enabled

[distant tulip]

do a console.warn in the root of your script and reload

[wary edge]

There is no more 1.14 beta?

[granite badger]

Which minecraft version are you on? Latest uses 1.16 beta https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/modules/_minecraft_server_1_16_0_beta.html

[hazy nebula]

and if i remove the chatSend section the sections below still work

[warm mason]

Each version of Minecraft has its own beta versions

[random flint]

Since there's no dependency error, I assume he got older minecraft version

[wary edge]

Unless otherwise stated I will always assume someone is using the latest verdion.

[hazy nebula]

my ver í 1.21.30

[warm mason]

If he does not have an error that he specified the wrong API version, then he can only use 1.14.0-beta

[distant tulip]

use 1.15.0-beta

[hazy nebula]

it still gives error at that part

[warm mason]

Clear minecraft cache

[distant tulip]

world cache

[warm mason]

Or so

[distant tulip]

you should do this to make sure the script is loading or not

[random flint]

restart minecraft 🗿

[hazy nebula]

when I delete the chatSend and reload the itemUse code below still works

[distant tulip]

hmm

[warm mason]

This can only mean that he actually has a stable version or he did not enable beta APIs in the settings

[hazy nebula]

no

wait a m

world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe(data => {
  let player = data.sender;
  let msg = data.message.trim();

  if (msg.startsWith('!scepter')) {
      let args = msg.split(' ');
      
      if (args.length >= 2) {
          let scepterName = args.slice(1).join(' ');

          let item = new ItemStack("minecraft:blaze_rod", 1);

          item.setLore([`spirits: ${scepterName}`]);

          player.getComponent("inventory").container.addItem(item);

          data.cancel = true;
      }
  }
});```

Not a huge deal, just excessive bot stuff should be used in the debug channel 🙂

Useless thing I did for awhile

[distant tulip]

hmmm

[dim tusk]

This is the first time I know the hex can be corresponds for rgba

Thank you stack overflow

[dim tusk]

Wait the slider doesn't accept float right?

[unique dragon]

i think no

[dim tusk]

I mean this kinda stupid but is it possible to have drop-down that reached 30k+?

Yeah ngl it sounds so fuckin stupid

Can't test it rn

[remote oyster]

Not sure if it would handle that. Might crash.

[dim tusk]

Make sense tbh lol... Looks like I need to do it with textField

[remote oyster]

Probably wouldn't recommend having to scroll through 30,000 possibilities either lol. Ain't nobody trying to do that.

[dim tusk]

Fr tho 😂

[remote oyster]

I think that is a good idea. Since it's possible for them to use uppercase, lowercase, and a mix of the two, I would suggest making the string lowercase in the textField after getting their input, then comparing that lowercase string with your list as lower case as well, to confirm you have a match. Makes it simple at not having to rely on the user to spell with case sensitivity in mind.

[dim tusk]

I'm trying to make hex to rgba but I want it to also work on name a only, but I need to list more than 1k of it

[dim tusk]

const colorData = {
    "blue": "#0000FF",

Here lmao 😂...

I will make a separate file contains all colors people know...

Yoo I discovered something. +1 knowledge

function hexToName(hexCode, colorData) {
    for (const [name, hex] of Object.entries(colorData)) {
        if (hex.toLowerCase() === hexCode.toLowerCase()) {
            return name;
        }
    }
    return null;
}```

I can get the name of the color by getting the hex

[dim tusk]

I see what you did there.

Tbh, my first idea is o create a color wheel but it's already impossible since there's a lot of colors

Even if I try to use ActionFormData it would be A LOT

[grave thistle]

Is there a way to store an entity's name within an item? I'm trying to make it so endermites can be bottled and need to retain the name if it's been tagged

[chilly fractal]

Set the name to the items lore

item.setLore([entity.nameTag]);

[grave thistle]

Forgot about lore tbh. Isn't possible to edit the name of the item. Say I bottle an endermite called Bob, could I rename the new item to Bottled Bob or something like that?

[chilly fractal]

Sure yea

You can also just set the item nameTag directly

item.nameTag = `Bottled ${entity.nameTag}`;

[slow walrus]

dynamic property

[chilly fractal]

Wouldn't work for stacked items

[subtle cove]

lore

[chilly fractal]

Yeah I suggested lore & nameTag

I think lore should be for when you have something like an id for an item, and nameTag should be for fun :) [by fun I mean bottling frogs & ghasts]

My personal favorite item is "Bottled JimDavis (Screaming)"

Brotha killed me in a hardcore world in Java so I decided to take revenge on him in bedrock

He is just stilling on wall of shame in an item frame

[indigo eagle]

How can I fix this?

[grave thistle]

Is there a way to make something classed as a player so I can run .playSound? I'm using a custom item component with onUseOn and the only option is source

[weary umbra]

Switch Line 5 with Line 4

[thorn flicker]

source is player.

[grave thistle]

Can't run source.playSound only source.dimension.playSound which all players can hear

I need it so only the target player can hear it

[shy leaf]

how are you getting the players?

[thorn flicker]

you can.

source returns the player class.

[dim tusk]

You can dude.

[grave thistle]

source isn't classed as Player, it's classed as Entity

[shy leaf]

if (source instanceof Player)``` maybe?

[thorn flicker]

weird.

the method should work regardless though

[dim tusk]

Did you try atleast cause I mean player is the one can only use an item 🤷

[thorn flicker]

I dont believe that is required.

[shy leaf]

yeah its quite odd

[dim tusk]

That's odd... Maybe just try typing the whole playsound and try it in game

[thorn flicker]

auto completion or not

it should work.

please try it

[dim tusk]

That's what I'm saying.

[thorn flicker]

I find it strange that it returns the entity class though

the world event doesnt but the custom component one does, weird

[grave thistle]

It does work. I assumed it wouldn't work because of autocomplete and the fact it returns as Entity

[thorn flicker]

I understand your logic, it's alright

[shy leaf]

oop

[thorn flicker]

very odd that it returns entity

[shy leaf]

the server banner changed

[thorn flicker]

its now nothing

no banner

nvm the event thing was in the way

[gaunt flare]

rawtext: [
                {
                    translate: "death.attack.indirectMagic",
                    with: [entity.name, "entity.evocation_fang.name"]
                }
            ]

How do I translate the evocation fang?

[warm mason]

Read what is written in the errors

[dim tusk]

damn the chatSend is now -beta?

[distant tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/always-has-been-among-us-astronaut-space-betrayal-gif-23836476

[grave thistle]

Is there not a method for spawning a loot table? Is the only way through runCommand?

[dim tusk]

i guess i didn't notice cause i love to use chatsend before with -beta scripts

[dim tusk]

yeah still commands

[grave thistle]

ah, hopefully a method is added at some point. guess ill stick with commands
