Script API General

[jolly citrus]

they need to have the cooldown on their sidebar

like this

[slow walrus]

you should commit some of your changes lmao

309

[jolly citrus]

i dont even use github for this anymore

idk how to unsync it

[chilly fractal]

import { system } from "@minecraft/server";
let cooldowns = new Map();

function useItem(player, item) { // example function, only for educational purposes, do not copy paste
  let cooldownKey = `${player.id}:${item.typeId}`;
  if (system.currentTick <= cooldowns.get(cooldownKey)) return function(){player.sendMessage('Whoa This Item Is Still On Cooldown!'); player.playSound('random.bassattack');}();
  cooldowns.set(cooldownKey, system.currentTick+(16*20)); // 16 seconds delay
  // run some code
  system.runTimeout(() => {
    cooldowns.delete(cooldownKey);
  });
}

[chilly fractal]

Really, do they? No. It's "extras" if you wanna do it, do it, if you wanna listen to me sure, it's up to you, but I have learnt from the hard way not to focus too much on the outerview.

Wow! Great commands! Thanks!

[bright dove]

does anyone know a way to apply enchant to an in-hand tool ?

[jolly citrus]

/enchant command

?

[bright dove]

....is there a direct way with scripting ?

[chilly fractal]

Hea

Yea*

[dreamy elbow]

Player.runcommand(<command here>)

[bright dove]

I mean like something like setEnchant ?

that doesn't exist ?

[dreamy elbow]

I mean it does exist it's just not the easiest method for what you want,

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1272737613496844379

[chilly fractal]

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

let item = player.getComponent('inventory').getItem(player.selectedSlotIndex), enchComp = item?.getComponent('enchantable');

if (!enchComp) return;
enchComp.addEnchantment({type: new EnchantmentType('fire_aspect'), level: 2});
player.getComponent('inventory').setItem(player.selectedSlotIndex, item); // sets item back to the same slot because mc doesn't register enchant unless you do this

[bright dove]

Thanks ya

[chilly fractal]

(Of course assuming player is a valid player variable), and you're welcome :)

Yo Emwynn, u writing a paragraph?

[dreamy elbow]

Hey what would be the best practice for saving data to a block while trying to to conserve space. I've been using
world.setdymanicProperty(Json.stringify(block.location),number)

But I feel like it's gonna take up a LOT of space

[chilly fractal]

Depends, can you provide more details & context?

[dreamy elbow]

I'm making an "hp" for block's that are stepped on, if you step on them too much they'll downgrade from grass into coarse dirt, then into paths, then into gravel

I just wanted to see what the effect would be

[chilly fractal]

Ah

[dreamy elbow]

But don't want to add it if it's gonna be a like 40 million gigs of data

Lol

[chilly fractal]

It's not gonna be large actually

Unless... a massive amount of blocks

[fiery solar]

No, it won't be very much data. You should be fine. Include the dimension id in the key though

[chilly fractal]

Yes

[dreamy elbow]

Oh right, yep almost forgot about that lol

[chilly fractal]

Like a million blocks or more probably

[dreamy elbow]

I should probably add a forget response just in case, that way if a block hasn't been stepped on more than once in like x amount of time it won't still be counted

Okie thanks just wanted to check there wasn't a safer or smarter way I was overlooking

[slow walrus]

go into your project folder and delete the .git folder

[slow walrus]

^

[chilly fractal]

I know this is off topic, but since we are js coders, I'm wondering what is the best way to get the device width? I'm using window.innerWidth but idk it isn't working with my formula to resize navbar and other elements on certain browsers like the kiwi browser & the acode html viewer

[distant tulip]

innerWidth should work
maybe try clientWidth or screen width

[chilly fractal]

Thanks

[celest relic]

When I use this on custom blocks with the liquid detection component, it says the block type can't be waterlogged. What should I do?

yo

how can I get the effect of an entity/player

also whats wrong with this

system.runInterval(() => {
    for (const player of world.getAllPlayers()) {
        const poison = Entity.getEffect('poison')
        if (poison) {
            Player.addTag('poison')
        }
    }
})```

it says the problem is with getEffect

[warm mason]

Entity and Player variable is not defined

[grim raft]

in @minecraft/server?

[warm mason]

It's in your code. You simply don't have them. You are referring to a non-existent object

Where do I find list of criteria for query? Like for

const query = { type: 'item', closest: 1, location: { x, y, z } };
const drop = dim.getEntities(query)[0];

[grim raft]

import { system, world, EntityHealthComponent, Player, Entity } from "@minecraft/server";```

is this what u reffering to?

[warm mason]

You import classes and try to call their methods. You can't do this if the method is not static. And since the method is not static, you need to create an object of this class, but you cannot create it via new, you need to create an entity via dimension.spawnEntity or get it via world.getEntity or dimension.getEntities

[grim raft]

didnt I did that here?

[remote oyster]

I highly recommend familiarizing yourself with Git, as it’s an invaluable tool for managing your code. Git makes it easy to track changes, so you can see exactly what was modified, when, and by whom. If you make a mistake, Git allows you to revert to earlier versions of your code, saving you time and frustration. It also lets you experiment with new ideas by creating branches, so you can test changes without affecting your main codebase. Git provides a clear and organized way to manage your code, making it much easier to navigate mistakes and improvements as your project grows.

[grim raft]

oh thats for players

[ember swallow]

@warm mason Hey, me again, do you know anything from entities? if yes, can you meybe pls look in entities general? it's probably really easy but can't get it fixed, Thanks!

[warm mason]

I didn't understand the question. What do you need

[ember swallow]

if a entity dies, it plays a sound and partcile, i don't want that

[warm mason]

#1067869022273667152

[ember swallow]

I know I put it there, but wanted to ask to you if you could help 😄

[wary edge]

Please dom't do this. Fishing for help is annoying.

[distant gulch]

Guys help

Why does Minecraft says (beforeEvents) "worldInitialize" is undefined?
Im using the 2.0.0-alpha for the server module

[warm mason]

code...

[distant gulch]

Code? why?

mc.world.beforeEvents.worldInitialize.subscribe(...)

[wary edge]

You cant use 2.0.0

[distant gulch]

NoO??

It worked like for years

[distant gulch]

Well, it worked before the update

Did they removed it or what?

[warm mason]

And after the update it doesn’t work, as you can see.

[distant gulch]

Yes.

[warm mason]

Go to 1.18.0-beta

[distant gulch]

but why can i use 2.0.0-alpha in my other addon? it doesnt throws any errors

[warm mason]

idk

[distant gulch]

weird

[gusty bramble]

I have a more general js question but how would I make something that takes “value” and divides it by 32. I want value to be a separate thing so I can set values to it automatically I don’t want it to be a set number or something if that makes sense

[warm mason]

let a = 1231236/32

[distant gulch]

well. like you can see, 1.18.0-nbeta isnt valid

[distant gulch]

Do you know the JavaScript basics? just a question

[warm mason]

For minecraft version 1.21.50 use 1.17.0-beta

[distant gulch]

alright

[wary edge]

My guy, 2.0.0 has not been around for years.

[gusty bramble]

I do yea I’m just a little lost here

I literally can’t remember how

[warm mason]

.

[distant gulch]

I just said "for years"
i used it for like months to be exct and it worked without problems

[warm mason]

value / 32

[warm mason]

Did you think that your addon will not break after updates?

[wary edge]

It shouldn't if you use stable 👍 .

That's the whole premise of stable APIs, it shouldn't break after updates.

[distant gulch]

i always use experimental soo

[warm mason]

Yes, yes. I remember that “wonderful” day when all my items said bye because they were not satisfied with the version format. Although it was an old addon, which was the field for my training... At least nothing broke in my new addon

[wary edge]

[distant gulch]

because beforeEvents.chatSend is only included in beta versions

[ember swallow]

Hey, How do you do with a script, if you left click, and try to hit something with a sword, that you can do a effect and sound effect, or activate a function? I think this works with scripts like the 'on use' but can't figure it out :C

[warm mason]

Animation Controlles + ScriptEvent

[ember swallow]

owww animation controllers, i will have a look at that Thanks!

[unique dragon]

cause that method only allow if the block can be waterlog

they recently added the liquid detection to custom block

add that component to your block

[celest relic]

That's what I was saying, it DOES have the component, still doesn't work.

However, it may be because the component was in a permutation.

The permutation was still met though, I'm not sure why it didn't allow it

[hardy tusk]

@spring axle what do you think about this?

[distant gulch]

how do I run a script based on what someone clicks in actionFormData

I want them to switch to a new form depending on which option they click

[remote oyster]

You check the response and if the response matches your condition you execute whatever it is that you need to execute.

https://stirante.com/script/server-ui/1.4.0-beta.1.21.50-stable/classes/ActionFormResponse.html

[distant gulch]

Thanks, I'll test it out

[distant gulch]

It seems I have to switch to typescript, to do that would I go to manifest, and change entry to "script/main.ts" and language to "typescript"?

[remote oyster]

Nah, the example is in typescript but you can do so using JavaScript.

Just remove the Types in the example.

[distant gulch]

well for some of the stuff, my console showed that I can only do it in typescript

specifically the

(log: (message: string, status?: number)

tho actually

do I even need that?

I don't think I do

I'll try without it lol

thanks

[remote oyster]

That's in TS because message and status are expressing the Type for each one.

Remove the Types and it's basically JS.

Example TS:

const example: string = "This is a string";

Example JS:

const example = "This is a string";

[distant gulch]

ohh, I see what u mean

thanks!

[remote oyster]

Must be in JS when applying to a world. Some of us use TS because it speeds up development, maximizes efficiency, and immensely assists at detecting realtime mistakes before getting to runtime testing.

[gusty bramble]

I’m so confused why doesn’t this work it says NaN for Seconds

Here’s another example

This is what I get out

[knotty plaza]

Use () so the math ecuation is made before joining with the string

[thorn flicker]

||you should use template strings instead||

[distant tulip]

uh... you are adding a string to an array

[knotty plaza]

Also that

That happens when you don't use Typescript

[gusty bramble]

Can I do this in a better way?

[distant tulip]

just remove the []

[gusty bramble]

I did that before it didn’t fix anything

[distant tulip]

send that code

[gusty bramble]

Oh wait

let comparators = 4;//input from the command
let batteries = 2;//input from the command

let c = [comparators]*32*[batteries]*15/20;
let m = Math.floor(c/60);
console.log('GameTicks:'+ comparators*32*batteries*15, 'Seconds:'+ c-m*60, 'Minutes:'+ m)

Yeah no this doesn’t work I originally had the [c] still but it seems that wasn’t the reason

[thorn flicker]

you should send code instead of images in the future

[distant tulip]

let comparators = 4;//input from the command
let batteries = 2;//input from the command

let c = comparators*32*batteries*15/20;
let m = Math.floor(c/60);
console.log('GameTicks:'+ comparators*32*batteries*15, 'Seconds:'+ c-m*60, 'Minutes:'+ m)

Does anyone knows how to set a text to a sign

[hardy tusk]

KissMyTanga??

HrEnte!!

[plush moss]

was geht

[hardy tusk]

lmao

[plush moss]

bin da gerade bisschen am verzweifeln xd

[distant tulip]

setText need the side of the sign

[hardy tusk]

its optional

[gusty bramble]

The thing I’m still getting NaN

[hardy tusk]

it doesnt need it

[distant tulip]

nvm it is optional

[distant tulip]

what is the exact error

[hardy tusk]

ahh

[plush moss]

egal was ich gemacht habe

xd

[distant tulip]

wrap it in a system.run

[jolly citrus]

hello ente

[plush moss]

hi

[hardy tusk]

Ok du musst den Code in system.run(()=>{}) wrappen

[plush moss]

teste ich mal wait

[hardy tusk]

also in den {} dein code

[gusty bramble]

This is all I’m getting

[plush moss]

meinst jetzt den setText oder den raw text oder alles davon xd

[hardy tusk]

das wird dann nächsten Tick ausgeführt, das is damit so ne Interaktion durch Script API nicht so lange verzögert wird, weil sonst müsste Minecraft warten bis dein Code komplett fertig is bevor es die eigentliche Interaktion durchführt

[hardy tusk]

Das mit dem Component und setText

also alles ab if(block.getComponent...)

[plush moss]

world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe((event) => {
    const player = event.player;
    const block = event.block;

    if (!player || !block) return;

    if (block.getComponent(BlockComponentTypes.Sign)) {

        event.cancel = true;
        system.runTimeout(() => {

        const sign = block.getComponent(BlockComponentTypes.Sign);
        if (sign) {
                const rawText = {
                    rawtext: [
                        { text: "§aClicked" }
                    ]
                };
                sign.setText(rawText);
        }
    })
    }
});

meinst ja so

ja thx

[hardy tusk]

Ja so würd ichs machen ```js
world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe((event) => {
const player = event.player;
const block = event.block;

if (!player || !block) return;

const sign = block.getComponent(BlockComponentTypes.Sign);
if(sign) {
    event.cancel = true;
    system.run(()=>{
        
        if (sign) {
            const rawText = {
                rawtext: [
                    { text: "§aClicked" }
                ]
            };
            sign.setText(rawText);
        }
    })
}

});

[distant tulip]

'Seconds:'+ (c-m*60)

[gusty bramble]

Much appreciated

[plush moss]

hast die klammern falsch gesetzt sonst checke

xd

[hardy tusk]

woops

ja hab das in dc bearbeitet das bischen krampf

[plush moss]

geht aber so auch nicht mehr xd

[hardy tusk]

ja stimmt

der cancel macht nix mehr

[plush moss]

ja

xd

egal habs ja

[hardy tusk]

aber den component kannst du trzdem in ner variable vorher speichern

du gettest den 2 mal

das nicht gut

[distant tulip]

guys
please keep it in English

[warm mason]

[hardy tusk]

jedes mal wenn du das machst schwitzt Script API richtig

checke auch smart eig

[warm mason]

👀

[distant tulip]

welp there is a way
but sense i don't speak what ever is that ... i can't help you

[jolly citrus]

ente speaks english

[hardy tusk]

Maybe its a block state but I doubt that

you can check tho

[distant tulip]

it is not

[hardy tusk]

k

[plush moss]

@hardy tusk man kann immer noch nicht die block facing direction holen mit scripts right?

[hardy tusk]

Doch

[plush moss]

seit wann

xd

[distant tulip]

save a glowing sign in structure block and reuse it

[hardy tusk]

Thats a block state

[warm mason]

Why event.cancel after system.run?

[plush moss]

@hardy tusk wie xd

[hardy tusk]

block.permutation.getState()

je nach block entweder einer von denen oder von den anderen

weirdo direction is my favorite

[plush moss]

ah nice seit welcher version geht das

How does chatSend work?

world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe((e) => {
    if (!e.sender.isValid) return;
    if (e.message.startsWith('!')) {
        e.sender.sendMessage("Working")
    }
})

Console says that subscribe is undefined

[warm mason]

show manifest

[distant gulch]

alr one sec

[distant gulch]

dependancies or all of it?

this is the dependancies

"dependencies": [
        {
            "module_name": "@minecraft/server",
            "version": "1.16.0"
        }
    ]

1.16.0 is no longer beta I don't think

[dim tusk]

Use beta

Chatsend is still beta that's why

[distant gulch]

1.16.0-beta?

[warm mason]

1.17.0-beta

[distant gulch]

ah

alr

lemme test it

alr bet, thanks guys!

[untold magnet]

yo, just to make sure:
is it possible to detect the itemStack of entities?
like detecting the item that the entity is holding.

[tawny jungle]

Is there a way to get ontick to run runinterval only once?

[wary edge]

Custom Blocks?

You can set loop to alse in the tick component.

[untold magnet]

[distant tulip]

player or none player?

[untold magnet]

non player

[distant tulip]

testfor command with hasitem selector

[untold magnet]

in that case, how can i get the item id?

impossible right?

[distant tulip]

kinda?
unless you are willing to test for all the items one by one

[untold magnet]

i think i can use something else

[jade grail]

is there a way for me to save entities data then spawn the exact same entity again?

all i know is how to save the location and typeId

[distant gulch]

How do I remove errors on tests

Where do I add the '?'

for like

state.?toLowerst

LowerCase*

[distant tulip]

?.

[distant gulch]

I'm doing

state?.toLowerCase?.toString()

and it did not fix the error

[distant tulip]

.toLowerCase()

[distant gulch]

I did that, but when it's invalid in my function

it shows in console

that it can't run toLowerCase to an undefined property

[dim tusk]

Just save them in a structure block 🤷

[jade grail]

ye ive figured that out

about 2 hours ago ..

well ty for help

[drowsy scaffold]

how do I apply knockback from a Vector3 location? I have a sumo ring but want to remove people who are wearing netherite from it without teleporting them

[ruby haven]

I made an arena a 30 block wide radius and I made a death scene of the boss and the player within that arena using tp there is one major flaw though if the player killed the boss on the side of the arena the death scene will not be seen correctly because the camera is being blocked by the arenas walls is there any way to tp the entity on the center of the arena?

[drowsy scaffold]

can the player get out of the arena at all?

[ruby haven]

No cause it cannot move after the scene, cause basically it is already dead

[drowsy scaffold]

like it wouldn't trigger an afterDeath event handler?

because I think you can still access a location property even after death

[ruby haven]

Well my boss has a minimum health value so it doesn't actually die so I can still tp it however the problem is don't know if it is possible to tp it in the center of the arena

So after entitydie I tp the boss in the center of the arena so the death scene can be seen clearly

[dim tusk]

get the center of the arena and get the entity you want to tp

[ruby haven]

I'll try that I saw that there is a dimension parameter in the tp function

Wait the structure actually generates in the center of the player so what if I save the coordinates in a variable then later use that to tp the boss?

[ripe swan]

Anyone know if there's a script API equivalent to the q.is_charging molang query on the front end?

[cold grove]

itemStartUse after event?

[ripe swan]

It's not an item, it's an entity (vex) doing the charging attack

I tracked down how the animation controller is changing the texture to an is_charging query, but there isn't an isCharging entity property on the entity object, so I'm not sure how to detect it from the script api

[ruby haven]

Is there a way to make a player not die after being hit like having a minimum health component

[random flint]

player.json

[dim tusk]

Not scripts

[ruby haven]

The problem with having a minimum health component is after you die your actually immortal so I don't like that

[random flint]

totem of undying

[random flint]

Then make a component group for it. If the player receives fatal damage, remove the "immortality" component group

[ruby haven]

Is it possible to track the damage value of the entity then compare that to the health of the player then I substract damage how many I want

[dim tusk]

you want to get the melee damage player dealt?

You can't get the melee damage of player without attacking something, I'm not kinda sure tho

[ruby haven]

No the boss melee damage dealt to the player

[dim tusk]

entityhurt can check the damage boss made

[random flint]

There's applyDamage() if you want the damage to be done through Script, but the rest of the damage calculation (armor, enchantments, potion effects) is outside your control, so you can't guess every time if this damage is "fatal" or not

Just make a component group, and damage sensor that detects and cancels fatal hits, then remove the component group afterward bruh. ( It run entity event )

[ruby haven]

Yeah this is a lot easier

[dim tusk]

Quick question, if the player is damaging a mob with armor can you detect how much damage armor resisted?

[random flint]

Not in a direct way.

You can Map each vanilla wearable Item attributes (armor and toughness)

Dynamically, If you want it to be compatible with other custom armor outside your pack, you could make a custom entity, and iterate each ItemTypes class for all possible wearable itemStack, then test each Armor Points and Armor Toughness by damaging the custom entity.
-# Probably run once on world load.

Then, using runCommand() or the async variants to get the armor dmg reduction, you'll use the hasItem={} selector to check each equipment slot for each typeIds, then calculate it according to the formula in Minecraft wiki.

It has a flaw tho, not being able to detect enchantments. However, you can barely distinguish "armor dmg reduction" and "enchantment dmg reduction" using an additional check of changing the damage cause between "entityAttack", "magic", "explosion", "projectile" etc
-# You'll be copying the hurtEntity using a structure, and a lot of copy-paste to isolate each armor for accurate reading. (Unless the getEquipment() works)

[ruby haven]

What does fatal detect if the damage is enough to kill the entity?

[random flint]

Fatal detects if this damage could Kill this entity iirc.

"Fatal - Any damage which kills the subject"

[dim tusk]

Not worth it to do such a big thing just for that.. ditching that too

How about having a resistance effect? Can you detect the damage absorbed?

[random flint]

you can use getEffect on all entities. Just take the amplifier and put it in the resistance formula

[dim tusk]

Yeah I'm stupid asf i forgot it existed lmao... Thanks to

[simple arch]

can somone help?

[tawny jungle]

the problem is that that is already being used for a redstone event

[ruby haven]

Is it possible to change death messages?

[dim tusk]

Nvm, I take back what I said in ditching this... I'll just use it on the player to detect how much damage the player resisted and absorbed

My weakness is the custom items

[flat barn]

it means the entity you are trying to get the component of wasnt found or does not exist

[distant gulch]

Oh, I'm so happy, I've finally finished my addon

and I LOVE IT

I'm nerding out rn

thanks for trying to help with the uppercase things Coddy

That's the only reason I pinned u lol, just a thanks

[dim tusk]

Ayy lmao... Why people keep thanking me even if I only did help 0.01% in their coding life 😭 tho you're welcome still

[distant gulch]

yearh, u rlly didn't help with my code, but u tried with one small part of it

lol

Wanna see my addon?

It's 1011 lines

its actually quite a simple program

but I had to add a LOT of data

[abstract cave]

Is there a way i can break a block using scripts

[distant gulch]

it was very tedius

[dim tusk]

Yeah I guess so... 1k lines is small for me but go ahead

[dim tusk]

set the block to air?

[distant gulch]

I won't inv u, but I'll explain

So you type '-help'

and it gives instructions

but basically

you set your yearly income

the state u live in

and the value of ur house

and it then tells you

when u type 'stats percent'

'-stats percent'*

it tells u:

Property Taxes:
State Taxes:
FICA Taxes:
Federal TaxesL

and Total Taxes:

[dim tusk]

Tf 😭😭

[distant gulch]

then if u type '-stats cost'

[dim tusk]

Chill out on messages

[distant gulch]

it tells u all that in costs

sorry, that's just how I type lol

[dim tusk]

And I feel like you replied to the wrong person

[distant gulch]

nah, u and one other dude mentioned something abt toUpperCase

and I alr thanked the other dude

but yeah, it tells u ur taxes based on income, state, and property value

[dim tusk]

I'm 800 lines deep already

[distant gulch]

I didn't bother adding filing status

dang

mines just a bunch of data from tax websites

each state is different in every field, and some have income brackets, some don't

and I had to look up (on a laggy laptop)

every single stat for every state

and then use chatSend and calculations, which I've never done before with either

[slow walrus]

oh my god bro just make a mathematical model for the tax percent

or something

so many if elses lmao

[slow walrus]

ah wait Ig it's not a continous func

nvm

just

[distant gulch]

yeah, nothing is continuous

every single state is different, every single value is different, every single if (income < ) is different

[slow walrus]

yeah ik

[distant gulch]

literally not a single thing repeats

ye

that's why it sucked to code

[slow walrus]

there's better ways to do it than a else if chain though

[distant gulch]

yeah, I realized that 1/3 way thru

but if it restarted, it would've taken longer

bc I'd have to go back and redo the values

which are a lot

And it's not like this is laggy

it runs with no delay ingame

so I don't see a point in changing it this far in lol

I could've just made every single thing easier by not changing the dynamicProperties until the end and just putting the array in the case of the 3 values based on income lol

then every state would only have 3-15 lines to it

[slow walrus]

btw, I would use <= instead of just <, then you don't have to add 1 to every number

makes it nicer to read

and your last else if can just be an else

[dim tusk]

Y'know what's funny I will literally bonk you just to do it like this... js if () sender.setDyna.... else if () sender.setDyna...

Especially if you're doing one thing inside of the bracket

[distant gulch]

I like the seperatation

makes me feel correct

it's not adding additional lag rlly

[round bone]

use map instead objects

[dim tusk]

I kinda hate it cause the readability will be bad... When it's only one but two yeah you need to use bracket

[dim tusk]

I ain't using it completely, I'm just using that for simple calling

[round bone]

Map.get(<identifier>, 0);

[distant gulch]

yeah, but the readability is easier for me, as I'm just a weird individual lol.
And this script isn't for other ppl. It was just to prove to myself that I could make it

[dim tusk]

I know okay... I said I ain't using objects in the future

[dim tusk]

I'm kinda confused with the calculation

So I'm in hard mode and zombie attacks me it's 4.5 and when I have resistance effect 3 the damage is 0.9

Which is way of with the calculation in the wiki

Which is 0.2 x level

When I do damage - (0.2 * 3) it's equal to 0.3

So 0.3 + 0.9 = 1.2 which is way way off of 4.5

[warm mason]

Each level of resistance effect reduces damage by 25%

[dim tusk]

Ohh my goodness

The wiki said 20%... Lma

[simple arch]

so inventory and equippable doesnt exist?

inventory = this.#simulatedPlayer?.getComponent("inventory").container
equipment = this.#simulatedPlayer?.getComponent("equippable")

or

inventory = this.#simulatedPlayer?.getComponent(mc.EntityComponentTypes.Inventory).container
equipment = this.#simulatedPlayer?.getComponent(mc.EntityComponentTypes.Equippable)

they don't exist

[warm mason]

there's no difference

[simple arch]

yeah but number 2 was the one I used

so if these don't exist (apparently) what should I do then?

im using the 1.17.0-beta server module

[warm mason]

Do they just return undefined?

[simple arch]

they just return undefined ig because as shown by my snip they return undefined

[simple arch]

so yes ig

[warm mason]

Maybe it's because simulatedPlayer is undefined

[simple arch]

its not undefined though

 const simulatedPlayer = SimulatedPlayer.test.spawnSimulatedPlayer({ x: 0, y: 1, z: 0 }, username, gamemode)

        if (sender) {
            simulatedPlayer.teleport(sender.location, {
                dimension: sender.dimension,
                facingLocation: sender.getViewDirection()
            });
        } else {
            throw new Error("sender's location is not initialized.");
        }

        this.#simulatedPlayer = simulatedPlayer
        this.#intervals = {}

this is in my

constructor

[warm mason]

Check it out. Before receiving components, print simulatedPlayer to the console

[simple arch]

do I just do

console.log(string | number | etc...)

just to clarify?

[warm mason]

console.warn("Player: " + this.#simulatedPlayer)

[simple arch]

okay I managed to get it to work

[ruby haven]

Is it possible to change death messages?

[bright dove]

is this valid code ?

[slow walrus]

isn't your equation wrong? you want to remove 25% of damage (per level), but here you're jsut removing 0.25 per level

do damage - (0.25 * 3 * damage)

[bright dove]

mhm

[warm mason]

Turn off the default death message through the settings and when a player dies, display what you need

[ruby haven]

Oh I thought you can fully manipulate them through scripts, gues I have to give up on this idea

[dim tusk]

For me it kinda don't make any sense because I tried to grab the damage of the zombie per level of resistance players have when the base is 4.5

zero: 4.5
one: 3.6000003814697266
two: 2.6999998092651367
three: 1.8000001907348633
four: 0.8999996185302734

20% -> 25% -> 33.33% -> 50%

[warm mason]

Stop what. Doesn't level four completely absorb damage?

[dim tusk]

That's not the point

The point is the percentage is not flat

And I obviously know that information.. k?

[slow walrus]

is this total percent or compounding?

cause if it's total for each level then your maths is completely wrong

[dim tusk]

I didn't use math I literally just grabbed the damage Zombie gave to me

[slow walrus]

zero: 4.5 (100%)
one: 3.6000003814697266 (80%)
two: 2.6999998092651367 (60%)
three: 1.8000001907348633 (40%)
four: 0.8999996185302734 (20%)

[slow walrus]

I'm talking about your percentages

you've done them wrong

[dim tusk]

Hm....

Kkk my bad i guess?

[slow walrus]

there's a 20% reduction in damage per resistance level

[dim tusk]

Ik confused asf, lemme redo my script.

And also serty said it's 25%

[slow walrus]

prob wrong

[dim tusk]

^

[slow walrus]

yeah ik he's wrong

[warm mason]

I'll check my system now. Maybe I'm really wrong

[dim tusk]

Lemme try this...

[slow walrus]

what damage value are you trying to calculate?

the final damage after resistance reduction?

[dim tusk]

I was trying to grab the damage player resisted

[slow walrus]

ah ok, then do

const damage_reduction = 0.20 * resistance_level * damage

oh wait

no

cause your damage will be after reduction

so you gotta get the original damage first

which should be

[bright dove]

class EnchantDeshPickaxe {
    constructor(player) {
        this.player = player;
    }

    enchantSelectedItem() {
        // Retrieve the currently selected item from the player's inventory
        let item = this.player.getComponent('inventory').getItem(this.player.selectedSlotIndex);
        
        // Check if the item is the pickaxe and is enchantable
        if (item && item.typeId === "cosmos:desh_pickaxe") {
            let enchComp = item.getComponent('enchantable');
            if (!enchComp) {
                console.log("The selected item is not enchantable.");
                return; // Exit if the item is not enchantable
            }

            // Define the enchantment to be added
            const enchantment = { type: new EnchantmentType('silk_touch'), level: 1 };

            // Add the enchantment to the item
            enchComp.addEnchantment(enchantment);

            // Update the item in the player's inventory to register the enchantment
            this.player.getComponent('inventory').setItem(this.player.selectedSlotIndex, item);
            
          }
        }
    }```

@dim tusk is this a valid class ?

[slow walrus]

const original_damage = damage / (1 - 0.2 * resistance_level)

and then the damage reduction is original - damage

const damage_reduction = original_damage - damage

[dim tusk]

That's why the damage resisted is wrong when I'm trying to add it on the current damage.

Damage: 1.8000001907348633 | Resisted Damage: 0.7200000762939454

[slow walrus]

or just

const damage_reduction = damage / (1 - 0.2 * resistance_level) - damage

[warm mason]

Yes, I did have the original damage calculation wrong

[slow walrus]

yeah

[warm mason]

no

[bright dove]

how so, elaborate please.

[warm mason]

getItem() is a method of the Container class, and you want to call this method directly on the EntityInventoryComponent class

And it's the same here

[thorn flicker]

you should store part of that in a variable so you can use it again below

[warm mason]

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

class EnchantDeshPickaxe {
    constructor(player) {
        this.player = player;
    }

    enchantSelectedItem() {
        let inv = this.player.getComponent("inventory").container
        let item = inv.getItem(this.player.selectedSlotIndex);
        
        if (item && item.typeId === "cosmos:desh_pickaxe") {
            let enchComp = item.getComponent('enchantable');
            if (!enchComp) {
                console.log("The selected item is not enchantable.");
                return; // Exit if the item is not enchantable
            }
            const enchantment = { type: new EnchantmentType('silk_touch'), level: 1 };
            enchComp.addEnchantment(enchantment);
            inv.setItem(this.player.selectedSlotIndex, item);
          }
        }
    }

[thorn flicker]

👍

[warm mason]

In general, it’s not very clear why create an entire class just for the sake of adding enchantment to a certain pickaxe

[bright dove]

Thanks

[bright dove]

It looks cooler

i should've make it a function but i want to make it a class for the sake of syntactic flowery

[thorn flicker]

looks lol

[warm mason]

Well, okay.. Btw I don't think you need to waste time on useless comments that just comment on methods

[bright dove]

This is a class, want to make sure everyone understand everything

Thanks though 😍

[thorn flicker]

some people just like adding comments to their code

nothing wrong with that

[bright dove]

ehehehe

pun intended >:) ?

[warm mason]

Well, sometimes it's useless. As in the addEnchantment method, for example, it’s clear what it does and why write there that it “adds enchantment”

[bright dove]

readability

[distant tulip]

most of the time the functions names are self explanatory

[warm mason]

As for me, on the contrary, when the code is separated by a bunch of text, it’s not very clear

[distant tulip]

for readability just avoid confusing stuff that not widely known (if possible)

[bright dove]

I'd like to pretend JS is like Java

As a result, it's all classes

doesn't reduce speed anyway

[dim tusk]

Ok so Umm did I do something wrong?

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe(({
    hurtEntity, damage
}) => {
    if (hurtEntity instanceof Player) {
        const resistance = hurtEntity.getEffect('resistance');
        console.error(`Damage: ${damage.toFixed(1)} | Resisted Damage: ${resistance ? damage / 1 - (0.20 * resistance.amplifier) - damage: 0.0}`);
    }
});```

I have "Resistance II" btw

[slow walrus]

you put the bracket in the wrong place

it should be infront of the 1

not the 0.20

[dim tusk]

Ohh lmao

[thorn flicker]

true.

[warm mason]

amplifier starts at zero, you need to add 1 to get its level

[slow walrus]

shit

oh ffs

wtf

ok nvm

whatever

[warm mason]

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe(({
    hurtEntity, damage
}) => {
    if (hurtEntity instanceof Player) {
        const resistance = hurtEntity.getEffect('resistance');
        const originalDamage = damage / (1 - (resistance.amplifier+1)*0.2)
        console.warn("Damage: " + damage + " | Original Damage: " + originalDamage)
    }
});

[dim tusk]

Ok that's why I keep changing the values it's still not working lmao

[dim tusk]

Lemme try this first...

[slow walrus]

why are you adding 1 to the amplifier?

[warm mason]

.

[slow walrus]

ah right

[distant gulch]

Made a command manager.
the command looks like hell himself

[dim tusk]

I'm starting lost my mind here....

[warm mason]

?

[distant gulch]

"?" ?

[dim tusk]

I don't have effect but why it's 5.625

[distant gulch]

imma take a look, wait

[warm mason]

You need to check for the presence of the effect

[dim tusk]

I know that's why I put it 0

[distant gulch]

forget it, i made a mistake

[warm mason]

Where did you put 0?

[dim tusk]

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe(({
    hurtEntity, damage
}) => {
    if (hurtEntity instanceof Player) {
        const resistance = hurtEntity.getEffect('resistance');
        const originalDamage = damage / (1 - ((resistance?.amplifier || 0) + 1) * 0.2);
        console.error("Damage: " + damage + " | Original Damage: " + originalDamage);
    }
});```

[warm mason]

put -1

no..

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe(({
    hurtEntity, damage
}) => {
    if (hurtEntity instanceof Player) {
        const level = (hurtEntity.getEffect('resistance').amplifier + 1) || 0;
        const originalDamage = damage / (1 - level * 0.2);
        console.error("Damage: " + damage + " | Original Damage: " + originalDamage);
    }
});

[dim tusk]

It works putting -1

But okay

[warm mason]

I changed something, copy again

[warm mason]

@dim tusk

[dim tusk]

Yeah I copied it already

[dense wraith]

[dim tusk]

I can say it's working but not 100% accurate

[dense wraith]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[warm mason]

You can use this random and do it something like this

let menu = new ActionFormData()
for (let i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
  menu.button(Random.element(["Button 1", "Button 2"]))
}

[dim tusk]

Because having no effect returns 4.5 flat, while having an effect the original damage returns 4.50000000.... and other numbers instead of just flat 4.5

[warm mason]

const originalDamage = Number((damage / (1 - level * 0.2)).toFixed(1))

[dense wraith]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[subtle cove]

const cards = [].sort(() => Math.random() - 0.5).slice(0,4)

[dense wraith]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[subtle cove]

[] will be ur part to fill in, with string (list of all cards)

[warm mason]

The for loop starts creating the button 4 times, and when creating the button you specify random text via Random.element

But in general, you will still need to remember what text each button has, so..

let menu = new ActionFormData()
let buttonValues = []
for (let i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
  let value = Random.element(["Button 1", "Button 2","Button 3..."])
  buttonValues.push(value)
  menu.button(value)
}

[slow walrus]

floating point error

Damn, looks like I need to take account other effects too, like regenerations or instant health

damage in entityhurt just returns how much health entity lsoe

[chilly fractal]

Yo does the block in playerPlaceBlock beforeEvent return the block being placed's location? (I assume not because there is a permutationBeingPlaced so how would I get the new block's location?

[warm mason]

world.beforeEvents.playerPlaceBlock.subscribe(data => {
  let block = data.block
})

[chilly fractal]

It says block being impacted by this event

[warm mason]

and?

[chilly fractal]

And why would they have permutationBeingPlaced if I can just get the typeId from the block straight up... right?

TypeId & perm and anything else

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/1.21.50/classes/_minecraft_server.PlayerPlaceBlockBeforeEvent.html

[warm mason]

You can’t, because the block is still only air

[chilly fractal]

Okay so basically what you are trying to say is block is the block being placed but isn't Readable until I exit read only mode right?

[warm mason]

data.block is an object with the Block class with which you can do anything, but you have no information about what block the player is placing because data.block is air since the block has not yet been placed, for this there is permutationBeingPlaced which tells you what the player is going to place

[random flint]

beforeEvent means it runs BEFORE the event happens.

In this case, the code runs before the block is placed physically in the world. So its block.typeId would still be air.
This is where permutationBeingPlaced comes into play, containing future information about what's being placed.

how to make an entity break a specific block so that it executes the entityHitBlock event?

[weary umbra]

does the sign component have setGlow() or something like that?

[chilly fractal]

Nope

Probably might be within it's states

The like block permutation's states ig

Take a look ig: https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server.BlockSignComponent-1.html

[weary umbra]

but there is only face direction

[distant tulip]

it is not

[chilly fractal]

Don't spite me y'all, I said "probably"

Not straight up "it is"

Also BTW does the permutation of the spawner return the mob spawner type?

Probably not right?

[distant tulip]

that why i said "it is not"?
so there is not space for doubt

[distant tulip]

mob spanner type?

[chilly fractal]

Alright then, problem resolved, have a great day sir!

[chilly fractal]

Yes

[distant tulip]

you are referring to the mob?

[chilly fractal]

Yes, like the mob that is getting spawned within that spawner

[distant tulip]

no it is not a permutation

[chilly fractal]

All i need to know is if I can or cannot do that

(With some way or another)

[distant tulip]

wait for a mob to spawn...

yes, this has me stomped for a while

[thorn flicker]

whats wrong?

[buoyant canopy]

you would expect i to be 0, 1, 2
but it is '0', '1', '2' which got me confused for my code isn't working

[warm mason]

Why? loop iterates through the array

[wary edge]

Yeah I expect i to be a string since its looping through an array.

[simple zodiac]

thats what a for of loop does. A for in loop loops through the object keys as far as i know

[warm mason]

Oh, well, yes. in iterates over the properties of the object so the output should be number

[warm mason]

In this case yes

[buoyant canopy]

i am even more confused now

[simple zodiac]

nah the object keys will always be strings regardless

[warm mason]

Just tell me what you need to iterate through the loop

[simple zodiac]

it outputs 0,1,2 but as strings as arrays are just objects where the key is the index

[buoyant canopy]

i have my problem solved, i am just mad this was the reason

[buoyant canopy]

so in gives you the keys of the object?
if i replace my array with an object i would get the keys?

[wary edge]

You might wanna do of instead.

[simple zodiac]

I dont even know what you are trying to do so I can't tell you

[buoyant canopy]

i just added a plus sign before it and that solved my issue

+i convert i into a number

[buoyant canopy]

@simple zodiac

[warm mason]

What's your problem? The loop iterates over the object's keys, the key is always a string so typeof i outputs a string

[buoyant canopy]

again, i don't have a problem, i find it interesting that i is a string and not a number, but now i know why

so does of return the values an object?

[warm mason]

yes

[buoyant canopy]

that means i could use:
1 of [1, 2, 3]
instead of:
[1, 2, 3].includes(1)

[warm mason]

no

[buoyant canopy]

huh

[warm mason]

of only works in loops as I know and it returns an iterator of the object's values

[buoyant canopy]

why does in work outside loops while of doesn't

[warm mason]

Maybe it works, but I don't know

[buoyant canopy]

no it doesn't

i just tried it

[warm mason]

👀

[marsh berry]

I am running my bedrock server in a Docker on my unraid server. And i cant get server -net activated in my permission file in the config folder. I do delete the file you need to delete to add a new config. But at startup it just overwrites the new config file with the old one. Can it be because im not running the official server on Windows? Or a Docker bug?

[distant tulip]

it doesn't return anything
it is used to iterate over the values of an iterable object, for...of loop is the only use case for "of"

[ruby haven]

I made a script that activates a death scene after the player is killed by a certain entity the problem is that entity summons another entity so the script won't work how do I make the entity be treated as the same as the original entity?

[buoyant canopy]

yeah, kinda weird tbh

[distant tulip]

how so

[buoyant canopy]

i mean, in when used outside a for loop returns if a key is found in an object: 'x' in {x: 1} returns true, you would expect the same works for of but it checks if x is found as a value in the object

Lol didn't think it'll actually work... Your welcome tho

[dim tusk]

All I want for Christmas is to be able to detect the data and set the data of the item using script's

[distant gulch]

How do I set up VS Code?

I want it to work like bridge, but without using bridge lol

[dim tusk]

first step... At least have a device that can handle the heavy loading

[distant gulch]

Well I'm using a laptop

only 8GB

of ram

but I can manage

[dim tusk]

Second step... download vscode 🤷

[distant gulch]

I did

[distant gulch]

What next?

[dim tusk]

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

[distant gulch]

checking it out

[ruby haven]

How can I pass the responsibility of being a damagingEntity cause I have an entity called smile there is this attack called stomp where it summons another entity called mz:stomp, this entity disappears after 0.1 seconds so how can I pass it's responsibility of being a damagingEntity to the original entity smile

[abstract cave]

Is there a way i can run a command in a specific location, via dimension
whenever i use it, i only runs at 00 can i change the location

[latent wing]

Does anyone know how to add extra buttons to the normal player interface?

[dim tusk]

Damn, three questions in a row

[abstract cave]

answer mine first 🥺

[dim tusk]

What are you trying to do why you want to change location of running the command?

Or what command you trying to run?

[dim tusk]

Wym by normal player interface???

[ruby haven]

I guess this is not possible then?

[latent wing]

Yes, I once saw a "Chinese" addon in which there were 3 buttons apart from the normal ones that executed abilities after being pressed

It's quite old and I couldn't find the video, but the addon was paid

[dim tusk]

Umm, Chinese mods are kinda different to ours, it's easy for them to add buttons that run commands or whatever compared to ours yes we can add buttons on screen but limited to

[latent wing]

I understand

[abstract cave]

im trying to break a block using scripts, so i want to run a fill command at the location of the block

[ruby haven]

Any alternative ways around this?

[timid zenith]

A question someone here who knows to update custom npc please thank ????

[scarlet lynx]

Wdym

[timid zenith]

???

[ruby haven]

Guys is this possible?

[proud pond]

how can a memory leak be caused by script api

[dim tusk]

run a setblock then if you want to drop its loot too

[distant gulch]

How do I set a volume with world.getDimension().getBlocks()?

[cold grove]

what behaviour haves the "stomp"?

like, melee attack?

[ruby haven]

Yes its another entity with an area attack

[cold grove]

just area attack?

[ruby haven]

Yes

[cold grove]

you can make via scripts that attack and set the damageSource to the original entity

[ruby haven]

Oh so it's possible can you give an example

[cold grove]

but you should remove every damage behaviour in your json

[ruby haven]

Well the entity disappears for 0.1 seconds so no problem

[cold grove]

your original entity uses an event fot that specific attack?

[ruby haven]

Yes, I have a component called timer_flag_1 and in the animation behavior side that's where I activate the event

[cold grove]

const attacker_original = ...;
const attacker_summoning = ...;
const maxDistance = 5; 
attacker_original .dimension.getEntities({ location: attacker_summoning .location, maxDistance })
.forEach((e) => {
    e.applyDamage(10, { damagingEntity: attacker_original });
});```

[cold grove]

then you should use dataDrivenEntityTrigger after event

[ruby haven]

I see okay I'll try doing that

[warm mason]

Are you doing the "stomping" mechanic?

[ruby haven]

?

[ruby haven]

This is what I'm trying to achieve

[dim tusk]

import BlockVolume in server

[dim tusk]

use entityspawn you can get the cause of spawning

[ruby haven]

Wait my entity smile is summoning an entity through a component called spawn_entity and the method I assigned is born in the spawnEntity event listener there are only 2 parameter which is the entity spawned and the cause how can I check the entity that spawned it?

[distant gulch]

alr thanks

[whole saddle]

hey guys, do you know how to read shulker box content from the inv of a player? I tried it via playerBreakBlock and it worked with BlockComponentTypes, but if I try that with the inventory container of a player and blockcomponenttypes it doesn't really work (it doesn't give out any info). Does anyone know how to get that info?

[chilly fractal]

Nope

You can't read shulker box contents from the inv of a player

[whole saddle]

do you know any other method that could bring this to work?

[chilly fractal]

You could read it if you placed it because of the block inventory component much like the entity inventory component

[chilly fractal]

There are no other methods

[whole saddle]

bruh

ok

thanks

[uncut summit]

What's the new chatsend subscribe?

[chilly fractal]

I mean just ask the player to place the shulker then on the playerPlaceBlock after event, read all it's data, and use setblock (block coords) air destroy and get the nearest item in that coord, and give the player a copy and kill it... ig?

[chilly fractal]

It has existed for centuries at this point. It fires after a message is sent in chat

[uncut summit]

Doesn't work for some reason

[chilly fractal]

But only the beforeEvent has existed tho, now you have an afterEvent! yay!

[chilly fractal]

It's still in beta

(I think)

[uncut summit]

Why isn't it working used to work before

I'm getting a error that the subscribe isn't right

I tried before events

[chilly fractal]

You can't cancel an afterEvent.

[uncut summit]

No like the whole subscribe is wrong it says

[slow walrus]

:l

are you using AI again

[chilly fractal]

Also why use ```js
for (const recipient of world.getPlayers()) {
recipient.sendMessage(formattedMessage);
}

When you literally don't have a dead players system, not a trolling system or anything to filter who to send the message to?

[slow walrus]

cause it's AI generated

the AI doesn't know to just use world.sendMessage

[ruby haven]

How can I do this?

[chilly fractal]

Really...?

If you fed it enough docs & npm it still wouldn't know?

[slow walrus]

nope, it's stupid as hell

first time it'll just hallucinate like shit, then you tell it your errors, then it'll go "Ah you're right, here's a slightly fixed version!"

rinse and repeat

and it eventually ends up with obscure redundant code

[chilly fractal]

I mean I don't rely on AI except on a bit of language assignments as I am pretty dumb in German but yeah I double check the answers

[slow walrus]

that works, but there's better ways

because it'll get stuck on how it wants to do it

[ruby haven]

Is possible to detect if an entity spawned detect the entity that spawned it?

[chilly fractal]

Otherwise I haven't used more then like 4 times to create some php & sql code examples.

[slow walrus]

no

[random flint]

entitySpawn afterEvents

[chilly fractal]

Nah. Just use playerInteractWithBlock beforeEvent or afterEvent and pair it with entitySpawn & an entity map to get a pretty accurate who spawned the entity detector

[uncut summit]

Help

[slow walrus]

it's getting spawned through a diff entity, so no player

[chilly fractal]

Welp

[ruby haven]

It has only 2 parameters the entity spawned and the cause not the spawner

[random flint]

Switch your manifest @minecraft/server depedency to the latest beta

[slow walrus]

1. Delete whichever AI you're using, as I've told you before
2. Use the chatSend before event, you can't cancel the afterEvent
3. check that you are using the beta api, the chatSend beforeEvent isn't available on stable.
4. quick tip, replace the last player loop with just world.sendMessage()

[warm mason]

1.17.0-beta

[chilly fractal]

Okay why not, trigger an event with the spawn_entity thing and in the event make it queue a scriptevent command and detect that signal and it's source and do your code ez

[uncut summit]

That's not ai that's my old cose

Code

I tried beforeevents

[slow walrus]

You've used AI before, and I don't believe you. That is AI generated code

as per the comments

very easy to tell

[random flint]

Did you even read the rest, check ur manifest.json

[slow walrus]

Windows Key + Shift + S

use that

to screenshot

[uncut summit]

My pc discord not working

[random flint]

• Rejoin the world.
• Maybe the older version of the pack got cached onto the world folder

[distant gulch]

-# screenshot will be saved to your clipboard

[chilly fractal]

Open the web version ez pz

discord.com/login

[slow walrus]

bump your version up to 2,0,1 and then reimport

[warm mason]

Need to clear cache

[ruby haven]

Can you explain this more

[distant gulch]

You guys thing the prefixes are pretty "readable" and easy to keep in mind?

-n <repeat_count: number>
-c <command: string>
-p* <raw_parameters: string>
-rx* <feedback_receiver: player>

[warm mason]

Why not just compile the js code from the message via eval? Why invent your own language?

[distant gulch]

Reinstall it or kill the Task in the Task Manager

[distant gulch]

Its more like a command manager in minecraft

Not a own lang.

[warm mason]

This looks like something that is very difficult to read

[distant gulch]

thats a simple use of it

*tp -l 0 0 0
// or
*tp -p "player1" -l 0 0 0

Is this still diff. to read?

-_-

[random flint]

Well, you gotta add a lot of instructions or references and what each keyword does

what does - signify? l?

[distant gulch]

-l is a parameter

i say that -l haves 0 0 0 and -p haves "player1

Kinda like in python when you say
arg1 = value inside a function call

[random flint]

It's pretty compact, but without context, we can't really rate it if it "readable" or not

[ruby haven]

How?

[random flint]

Scrap that, Look at other approach

[distant gulch]

i got a help command that shows the given parameters and their types.. so i think with a little instroduction it will be understandable

[ruby haven]

Oh I thought you know something that I dont

[slow walrus]

@warm mason why not?

[chilly fractal]

Okay so I'm not too good with entities butt, yes with another t, I'm pretty sure you can trigger an event like "event": "ds:sayWhoSpawnedMe" and then have an event setup (all this is within the entity file still),

// events object of your entity 
"events": {
  "ds:sayWhoSpawnedMe": {
    "queue_command": {
      "command": [
        "scriptevent ds:sayWhoSpawnedMe 0123210"
      ]
    }
  }
  // any other events if you have any (make sure to put "," at the end of this event if you you wanna make other events)
}

and in your Scripting part do:

system.afterEvents.scriptEventReceive.subscribe((data) => {
  let entity = data.sourceEntity, id = data.id, verificationCode = data.message;
  
  if (id !== 'ds:sayWhoSpawnedMe') return;
  //if (verificationCode !== "0123210") return;
  world.sendMessage(entity.typeId);
});

BTW verificationCode is extra from me, you don't need to use it.., if you want to use it just uncomment it.
@ruby haven

[ruby haven]

Oh I never new there is a method called scriptEventsReceive thank you so much this unlocks a lot of more possibilities for me

[chilly fractal]

I edited it again, use it now, and you're welcome!

[distant gulch]

How do I grab every block from an area and run something from it?
I've tried -

const test = new BlockVolume({x: 0, y: 0, z: 0}, {x: 0, y: 0, z: 0})l
const blocks = world.getDimension().getBlocks(test);

obv the coords are diff

but it doesn't give me the array of blocks

and I want to run a forEach on all the blocks in that volume

and I'd rather not do a getBlock for each individual block location in an area

[past blaze]

getBlocks returns another block volume. What you need to do is

for (const block of blocks.getBlockLocationIterator()) {
  ...
}

[distant gulch]

ah, thanks! And that runs from every block?

I didn't know LocationIterator grabbed the,

them*

thanks

[distant gulch]

unfortunately, it's saying that the value in not an iterable

nvm, ignore me

forgot to make it a function

[pallid portal]

curiosity got the best of me.

Aside from the ambiguous wiki that just lists functions, components and modules.
Is there a resource that explains how to just write a script in simple terms.

Namely, if you were to make a custom block component with an interaction, place, detect other blocks, or just do an event.
Isn't there a document that explains how to format/assemble a script file?

And if the answer is learning JavaScript, would this mean doing a whole course on that would magically mean you can write Scripts for Minecraft Bedrock addons?

[wary edge]

And if the answer is learning JavaScript, would this mean doing a whole course on that would magically mean you can write Scripts for Minecraft Bedrock addons?
Yes.

[pallid portal]

If I do so and find out that the way the scripts are formatted is not the same. Imma be upset.

(all of this over a project with friends that did not need these things......)

[chilly fractal]

Scripts are run on quickJS. Which get compiled into c++.

[past blaze]

They don't get compiled. They're just interpreted at runtime

[scarlet lynx]

@wary edge Hey, do you know if there is a area where I can reach out to Scripting Devs ( mojang ) of ideas for stuff

[wary edge]

🤷 Devs always lurk here. You can always brainstorm or use the official feedback discord.

[scarlet lynx]

Okay thanks, I want to try to get them to add more Behavior pack readings to scripting like Display Names as a example

[valid ice]

Display name is client side tho

[wary edge]

yet its defined in the BP

[valid ice]

Ohhhhh that part

[granite badger]

blame them for having so many format for key translations

[valid ice]

Translation keys are so cooked 😭

[scarlet lynx]

uh wdym

[scarlet lynx]

wth is dat

[valid ice]

RP lang file translations

[scarlet lynx]

Yeah, they could do the BP pack side though

[granite badger]

i recently made a mapping for vanilla item translations, it was a lot of effort

[scarlet sable]

what allows mobs to break blocks?

in the api of course

[burnt robin]

is server-net not able to use express servers??

i've used a http request in minecraft and the same for fetch in node.js both to the same server same setup fetch worked and gave the data but minecraft server-net didnt

it returned an empty object

[dim tusk]

Guys, can you detect if banner have designs already like you already used them in loom....

If not can commands do it?

[distant tulip]

no to both
commands can only detect the base color

[dim tusk]

Damn that's sad.

[distant gulch]

Is there a method to manually load a chunk script side?

[hardy tusk]

Terrible practice for learning a language actually, I can tell u from learning spanish

[neat hound]

I wish there was something that would hit you upside the head and say... you hjave single equal signs in your IF statement...

[hardy tusk]

Vscode extension

There is also a practice for that, that says you should never do var == 1 but rather always 1 == var so the engine can throw an error for that

[dim tusk]

/tickingarea and entities with component tick_world only way that can load unloaded chunks

[hardy tusk]

(But I forgot the name of it since I dont ever run into that problem and wrote it off as irrelevant)

[neat hound]

I have a ton of extensions, but non that catch that slip up... I have to catch it after I pull my hair out

[distant gulch]

thats what I thought

wondering if there was a js api i didnt know about

[dim tusk]

Remember that tickingarea can save 10 areas only

[distant gulch]

How is chunks loaded actually calculated in the debugger?

[hardy tusk]

I could imagine there being a vscode extension just for that single purpose lol, considering how many there are

[distant gulch]

I have 12 chunk radius, 12*12 at most should be 144?

[dim tusk]

Check the documentation of that plug-in maybe you'll get math used

Is that vscode?

[distant gulch]

yes

[hardy tusk]

(Apparently) found one!
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=PhilHindle.errorlens

😂

[distant tulip]

feels cursed

[hardy tusk]

Agree

[slow walrus]

Ticking chunks are the "loaded" chunks, where stuff is actually happening

loaded just means they're been loaded from the disk into memory

[distant gulch]

Yes I understand that

But nothing should be happening, sicne its just me with a 12 render distance

wait

[slow walrus]

the chunks still tick

[distant gulch]

yes i understand

hahahah

i was looking at the blue

thank you

[slow walrus]

👍

the naming is a bit ambiguous

but yeah

[neat hound]

I installed it and did this.. and nada ```js
let v = 0;
if (v = 4)
return;

[hardy tusk]

Damn

[distant tulip]

you will notice it overtime

[neat hound]

I am usually pretty good about it.. except when I'm not... I tend to write a lot of code and then test.. I've gotten good enough to do that... but when I miss this occasionally... takes a while to troubleshoot. I had this... js if (grid4.y = 0) newBlockFace = 'down'; else if (grid4.y = 3) newBlockFace = 'up'; else if (grid4.x = 0) newBlockFace = getPerpendicularFace(eventFace, 0); else if (grid4.x = 3) newBlockFace = getPerpendicularFace(eventFace, 1); ); else newBlockFace = eventFace;

[distant gulch]

               const sign = world.getDimension("overworld").setBlockType({ x, y: y + 2, z }, "minecraft:oak_sign");
``` Has anoyne tried messing aorund with signs?

Seems as if signs are not a block

[wary edge]

What about it?

[distant gulch]

How does one place a sign?

[wary edge]

try standing sign instead.

[distant gulch]

MinecraftBlockTypes dosnt seem to be a valid export from @minecraft/server

is there a raw id for that?

[wary edge]

Check in-game or the mc wiki. I can't check right now.

[distant gulch]

thanks

[wary edge]

should just be oak_standing_sign... should

[sterile epoch]

what is the difference between in and of in a foor loop? i used in accidentally instead of 'of' and it didn't work

[wary edge]

in - keys
of - values

[sterile epoch]

ahhh, thank you

[distant gulch]

               const signBlock = world.getDimension("overworld").getBlock({ x, y, z });
               const signPerm = BlockPermutation.resolve('minecraft:standing_sign', { ground_sign_direction: 0 });
               signBlock.setPermutation(signPerm);
               const signComponent = signBlock.getComponent(BlockComponentTypes.Sign);
               signComponent.setText({ translate: 'item.skull.player.name', with: ['Steve'] });```

[cold grove]

just BlockTypes

[dim tusk]

Because it's in vanilla-data

Which is not built in you need to get the bundle

[dim tusk]

An you can just signBlock.getComponent('minecraft:sign')

I have a simple functions that detects detects if player eats a cake but if the cake is in last eaten state when player interact it, it can't detect since it disappears do anyone knows a fix?

const blockPerm = new WeakMap();

world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe(({
    block, player
}) => {
    blockPerm.set(player, block.permutation);
});

world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe(({
    block, player, beforeItemStack, itemStack
}) => {
    const stats = JSON.parse(player.getDynamicProperty('stats') || '{}');
    const blocks = blockMap[block.typeId];
    const perm = blockPerm.get(player);

    if (blocks) {
        if (perm && perm !== block.permutation) {
            switch (perm.type.id) {
                case 'minecraft:cake':
                    console.error('Eat Cake!');
                    break;

                default:
                    break;
            }
        } else if (
            perm.type.id !== 'minecraft:cake'
        ) {
            console.error(`${block.typeId}`);
        }
    }
});```

You can npm it
npm i @minecraft/vanilla-data
into a separate folder, then go into folder in picture... (the other folders, is cause I NPM everything in one place. Index.js has a ready to use file, but yse the Prettier formattin on it, so it is more readable

drag and drop where you need it.

Thank you for your help

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

/** @type {import("@minecraft/server").BlockCustomComponent} */
const CreativeModeOnlyBlockComponent = {
    onPlayerDestroy(event) {
        event.block (block.typeId === "jay:coal_ore")
        event.player (entity.typeId === "minecraft:player") 
          entity.runCommandAsync("execute @s ~~~ say broke coal ore");
    }
}```
im trying to make it so when I break my custom block it runs a command but im not getting any errors logs?

in my content log

[deep yew]

what is "onPlayerDestroy"?

[dull shell]

on player destoryed?

[deep yew]

oh I see, I was very confused by the variable

[dull shell]

no your okay

[deep yew]

It may be due to the execute command being changed from the old format

execute as @s run say broke coal ore

[dull shell]

no my other pack with scripts work without the new one

[deep yew]

interesting

[dull shell]

i feel like my code is wrong

im not that good with js

[deep yew]

I'm not familiar with the code aspect, using the CreativeModeOnlyBlockComponent stuff

But it just seems odd to not be a function or listener

[dull shell]

I got that from the microsoft docs 1sec

i found this and reworked around it

[deep yew]

do you have the part 2?

"world.beforeEvents.worldInitialize..."
