[gusty bramble]

What’s up here?

import { system } from '@minecraft/server';
import extension from 'config';
import ArgumentParser from 'lib/canopy/ArgumentParser';
import { ItemSummonCommandCallback } from 'src/commands/ItemSummonCommand';

system.afterEvents.scrpitEventReceive.subscribe((event) => {
    if (event.id !== 'storageutilities:itemsummon') return;
    const sender = getSource(event);
    if (sender === null) return;
    if (!extension.getRuleValue('StorageUtilites')) return sender.sendMessage('§cThe StorageUtilites rule is disab');
    const [ item, amount, x, y, z ]= ArgumentParser.parseArgs(event.message);
    const args = { item, amount, x, y, z };
    for (const key in args) {
        if (args[key] === undefined) {
            args[key] = null;
        }
    }
    ItemSummonCommand(sender, args);
});

Got to really appreciate typos lol.

[gusty bramble]

I’m stupid

I mean that’s at least something

[wheat condor]

is there alredy a world edit mod that has a full preview of what you re copyin g like all blocks?

[past blaze]

You mean editor mode?

[coral ermine]

the function is fine it working with itemUseOn but not working with playerPlaceBlock

[past blaze]

#old-editor

[wheat condor]

no i mean a real ingame world edit

[past blaze]

So, editor mode?

Because editor mode has that

I don't think WorldEdit itself even has a paste preview

[wheat condor]

is editor mode included in bedrock edition or is external?

[past blaze]

included in bedrock edition

In fact you can access it from the launcher

[wheat condor]

never seen it

[past blaze]

Are you on PC?

[wheat condor]

yeah

its on creator tools

[past blaze]

Well then, check out the new "Creator Tools" tab in the launcher

[wheat condor]

is it new?

[past blaze]

That tab is, yes

Editor mode has been in development for a while

[wheat condor]

couse i was trying to create a world edit that has the same as java and better i was trying to recreate something like fortnite creative phone

with prefabs of minecraft structures

[simple arch]

How can I have NPCs/player have custom slim skins

Using Server UI

[dim tusk]

Use permutationBeingPlaced.type.id

[coral ermine]

tysm

[astral quarry]

Moved my post, nvm.

[simple arch]

is there any way to do it? its kind of like (idk if guys heard about it) the terminator addon where you can choose what the terminator looks like and it shows that when it is steve it uses the custom player blocky and when its alex it is the slim one

[patent tapir]

Is it possible to use Infinity as a number in player.addEffect

[slow walrus]

no

[patent tapir]

..bruh

Is there any way to make an infinite effect (not using obscenely large numbers or really numbers at all)

[slow walrus]

use a runCommand

its not supported in scripts yet

[patent tapir]

Oh ok, then can I use ${ (scoreboard value) - 1 } in the runCommand

Would that work?

I’ll just try it

I’m in the world right now and the pack in in development folder

[distant tulip]

yeah

[patent tapir]

Ok

player.runCommand(`effect @s speed infinite ${speedLevel - 1} true`)

Cool

I wanted to reduce unnecessary load, so I added extra logic that’s only supposed to run when the player doesn’t have haste here, why isn’t it working?player.getEffects().includes("haste") == true ? player.runCommand(`effect @s haste infinite ${hasteLevel - 1} true`) : null

Oh

I literally just now see the issue

Anyway is there a way to NOT run anything if the logic returns true?

Right now I just have it set to : null

Idk if that works tho

[distant tulip]

if statement...

[patent tapir]

Ffine

[distant tulip]

it is best if you only use conditional ternary operator when assigning a value to a variable conditionally
const v = x?y:z

[patent tapir]

Yeahh

Probably is

I like the look of short code because my adhd brain likes it

So I just try to shorten my code as much as possible lol

[distant tulip]

yeah, i can relate

[round bone]

It'll work

But as your friend said: it's better to use if statement

[patent tapir]

I did

I already had an if statement to check if they even had the point anyway

So I just && on them

Right now I’m working on making sure wind charges don’t get button abused again

Or, tp buttons don’t get wind charge abused

[round bone]

Add some cooldown checks

[patent tapir]

?

Why cooldown checks

[distant tulip]

idk if this is what he meant but
if time left for the effect is 10 ticks for example, and you are using interval with 80 tick delay the effect will run out before the next check

[round bone]

Won't get abused cooldown

[patent tapir]

It already gives the effect immediately back to the person if they have effectsScore > 0 AND they don’t have the effect

The only time that would happen is if they just bought the effectScore point or they died

Because the effect is infinite

i get this error when I run this with a script event

I’m aware the issue is the sender.dimension part but how can I replace it without messing up the script when typed in chat normal (not as a script event)

[tawny jungle]

how can i clone an item but keep the data of said item after reloading?

[wary edge]

Wdym?

https://stirante.com/script/server/1.16.0/classes/ItemStack.html#clone

[tawny jungle]

i need itemStack.clone to copy nbt data from a book, but i am moving that data out of the original function into a map, then calling the map to then use the data.

export function funcBookFilled(player, block, itemStack) {
    const playerMainHandSlot = player.getComponent("equippable").getEquipment("Mainhand");
    const clonedBook = player.getComponent("equippable").getEquipment("Mainhand")?.clone();
    const bookFilled = block.permutation?.getState("sci:book_filled")
};
export function funcBookBreak(hitBlock, ItemStack, damagingEntity) {
    const clonedBook = clonedBookMap.get('clonedBook')
    const bookFilled = hitBlock.permutation?.getState("sci:book_filled")
    if (hitBlock?.typeId === "sci:lectern_mini" && bookFilled === true) {
        hitBlock.dimension.spawnItem(clonedBook, hitBlock.center())
        hitBlock.setPermutation(hitBlock.permutation.withState("sci:book_filled", false));
    }
}```

the problem is after reloading the map data is gone

is there a way around this?

[dim tusk]

Umm.. you got not choice but store in a container

Since /reload or restarting the world delete all stored datas inside of objects, maps or other things

And you definitely can't store it on dynamic property

[tawny jungle]

i see

you got some documentation for making a container?

[patent tapir]

Can someone please tell me why no matter what button I push, as long as it’s defined as a vector3, it iterates through every single case statement and teleports me to 1000, 64, 1000?

I first tried to compare the data.block.location directly to the defined vectors but that didnt work so I thought only comparing one value would help but that still didnt work

[wary edge]

You dont have break.

[patent tapir]

Oh…

[dim tusk]

It's not a script api thing its entities, Just create a custom entity or other ideas is to place a chest and grab the location of the chest and store the item

[patent tapir]

Wow I’m so dumb

[tawny jungle]

hmm, i see. Thanks i think i can do that

[patent tapir]

So I can’t compare the entire vector to another entire vector, that’s dissatisfying

But I can just compare the x values

[distant tulip]

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1252014916496527380

[distant tulip]

why not?

[patent tapir]

Idk

If I do a switch statement to check the data.block.location I can’t just use case (vector3)

Am I wrong?

[distant tulip]

ah, no you can't directly
make a function that compare them and call it there

[patent tapir]

Uh

Do case values accept true/false though?

When I’m not comparing for true/false

[distant tulip]

in switch?

[patent tapir]

Yes

[distant tulip]

they do

[patent tapir]

Huh, ok

[distant tulip]

switch(value){
case true: //...
case false: /...
}

[patent tapir]

…

BIIIIG problem there buddy

I have 10 different locations I need to check.

I whipped up a function to return true/false but now I don’t think it’ll work

  if (vector1.x == vector2.x && vector1.y == vector2.y && vector1.z == vector2.z) return true
  return false
}```

I’d have to use absurd amounts of if/else statements if I were to do that

[distant tulip]

switch is a bad idea for that anyway

[patent tapir]

But so much simpler 😔

[distant tulip]

can you explain what are you trying to do in details

[patent tapir]

I’m making an anti-wind charge abuse system that ONLY teleports the button pusher, but I have at least 10 buttons at spawn alone that all need to get checked

[distant tulip]

so from the code side what are you trying to do

[patent tapir]

When any button is pushed, if the location for that button = (some vector3) then tp to location

Due to this converation though I assume the only option I have is to write out WAYY too many if/else statements

Unless I wanna do some tomfoolery with iteration and for loops, which I quite frankly don’t want to do

-# (myself, at least)

[distant tulip]

make an array
[
{button:vec3, tpTo:vec3},
{button:vec3, tpTo:vec3},
{button:vec3, tpTo:vec3},
{button:vec3, tpTo:vec3},
]
and find the right tpTo vector

[patent tapir]

Oh boy.

[tawny jungle]

thanks bro, just got it working

[distant tulip]

or just use maps 🤷‍♂️

[patent tapir]

That’s something i don’t know how to do

[patent tapir]

This would probably be easier to do than maps.

[distant tulip]

kinda the same but faster

[distant tulip]

const buttonMap = new Map()

// examples
buttonMap.set(JSON.stringify({ x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 }), { x: 10, y: 20, z: 30 })
buttonMap.set(JSON.stringify({ x: 4, y: 5, z: 6 }), { x: 40, y: 50, z: 60 })
buttonMap.set(JSON.stringify({ x: 7, y: 8, z: 9 }), { x: 70, y: 80, z: 90 })

function handleButtonPress(location) {
  const key = JSON.stringify(location)
  if (buttonMap.has(key)) {
    const tpTo = buttonMap.get(key)
    console.warn(`Teleporting to: ${JSON.stringify(tpTo)}`)
    //...
  } else {
    console.warn('No matching button found.')
  }
}

[patent tapir]

Making the array right now

Oh.

[patent tapir]

That looks incredibly annoying

[distant tulip]

yeah lol

maybe do

const buttons = [
    { button: { x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 }, tpTo: { x: 10, y: 20, z: 30 } },
    { button: { x: 4, y: 5, z: 6 }, tpTo: { x: 40, y: 50, z: 60 } },
    { button: { x: 7, y: 8, z: 9 }, tpTo: { x: 70, y: 80, z: 90 } },
]
const buttonMap = new Map(
    buttons.map(({ button, tpTo }) => [JSON.stringify(button), tpTo])
)

[gusty bramble]

Could I maybe specify the dimension in the command instead? So like tell it what dimension to spawn the item in manually?

If so how would I go about that?

[patent tapir]

But what is that supposed to do??

[distant tulip]

sure
use world.getDimension(id)

[distant tulip]

🗿

[distant tulip]

improve this?

[gusty bramble]

Could I possibly do it so the player inputs the dimension manually

(Basically replace the “sender.dimension.spawnItem” with an input like I have for “item”, “amount”, “x”, “y”, “z”)

So it would be

[ item ] [ amount ] [ dimension ] [ x y z ]

[patent tapir]

I just finished creating the array for button vectors and tpTo vectors

What now

[patent tapir]

I mean like seriously how am I supposed to use that

It’s making an array, out of an array

It isn’t achieving what i sought to achieve

I literally do not even understand how map works

[gusty bramble]

Actually how would I use this? (It seems better than my idea)

[distant tulip]

yeah just replace the id with player input

[gusty bramble]

Oh ok

[distant tulip]

the code i sent is mapping each tp location to the button location
and we are using the button location as a key in the map, that make it possible to get tp location only using button location

[patent tapir]

That doesn’t make any sense.

I’m trying to actually tp the player on button push, this really doesn’t seem to actually help towards that goal

[gusty bramble]

Sorry if I’m not understanding but do you mean something like this?

import * as mc from '@minecraft/server'
import { ItemStack } from '@minecraft/server'
import {Command} from 'lib/canopy/CanopyExtension';
import  extension from 'config'
const ItemSummonCommand = new Command({
    name: 'itemsummon',
    description: 'A command to summon any items from nothing',
    usage: 'itemsummon [item] [amount] [location]',
    callback: ItemSummonCommandCallback,
    args: [
      { type: 'string|number', name: 'item' },
      { type: 'number', name: 'amount' },
      { type: 'number', name: 'x' },
      { type: 'number', name: 'y' },
      { type: 'number', name: 'z' },
      { type: 'string|number', name: 'dimension' },
    ],
    contingentRules: ['StorageUtilities'],
    adminOnly: false,
    helpEntries: [
    ],
    helpHidden: false
});
extension.addCommand(ItemSummonCommand);

function ItemSummonCommandCallback(sender, args){
    let { item, amount, dimension, x, y, z } = args;
    const location = {x: x, y: y, z:z}
    world.getDimension(dimension).spawnItem(new ItemStack(item, amount), location);
    itemEntity.clearVerocity();
};

export { ItemSummonCommandCallback }

[distant tulip]

yeah
add errors handling in case the player input is not a dimension id

[gusty bramble]

I don’t know how to do that ;-; I’m actually awful at this

[patent tapir]

You and me both my friend

I keep thinking I’m getting better at js and then stuff like this happens -.-

[dim tusk]

That literally does what you want 😭

[patent tapir]

You know what, I put 1% of my brainpower into this and came up with a for loop that should work

    if (compareVectors(buttons[i].button, data.block.location) == true) {
      pusher.teleport(buttons[i].tpTo)
      break
    }
  }```

[dim tusk]

You just put it in a map for easy changing of locations

[dim tusk]

the first button will teleport you to 10, 20, 30 next button will teleport you to 40, 50, 60

[gusty bramble]

Hummmm this isn’t working (I added world to the import at the top)

[dim tusk]

Add a console error in the function to check if the function is called at all

[gusty bramble]

What does that mean?

[dim tusk]

Just a debug to know if the function is working

What part that doesn't work at all?

[gusty bramble]

One sec

[dim tusk]

What's in the line 29, 65 and 81

[patent tapir]

Well for your line 29 the dimension variable didn’t convert into a string correctly

So that’s an issue with the variable definition

Might be that you’re missing () after .stringify

Or something else

[patent tapir]

I finally decided to put this into my code because the for loop wasn’t working. Seriously. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO USE THIS?

[dim tusk]

Is it my time to shine? 🥺

[patent tapir]

Sure, if you can figure out wtf I’m supposed to do with this map thing.

I have no idea how map’s work.

I just want the person who pushed the button to get tp’ed instead of the nearest player.

I just figured it out..

    data.source.teleport(buttons.find((btn => btn.button.x == data.block.location.x && btn.button.y == data.block.location.y && btn.button.z == data.block.location.z == true)).tpTo)
  }```

That was all I needed

[dim tusk]

Lmao.... Kinda annoying to look at but okay

[patent tapir]

Why

[distant tulip]

maps are faster....

anyway i gtg to sleep

[patent tapir]

-_-

I literally have no idea how to use maps

Stop telling me to use maps without telling me how to use maps

[cold grove]

you dont have google?

[cold grove]

just click the link

he already searched the docs for you

[dim tusk]

const buttons = [
    { button: { x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 }, tpTo: { x: 10, y: 20, z: 30 } },
    { button: { x: 4, y: 5, z: 6 }, tpTo: { x: 40, y: 50, z: 60 } },
    { button: { x: 7, y: 8, z: 9 }, tpTo: { x: 70, y: 80, z: 90 } },
]
const buttonMap = new Map(buttons.map(({ button, tpTo }) => [JSON.stringify(button), tpTo]));

world.afterEvents.buttonPush.subscribe(({ block, source }) => {
    const tpTo = buttonMap.get(block.location);
    if (tpTo) source.teleport(tpTo);
})

[patent tapir]

God I hate the docs

[dim tusk]

Google exist my guy

[patent tapir]

It’s so hard for me to get anything useful for my adhd brain from there

[cold grove]

well you cant just guess things

[dim tusk]

and expect people to help you?

[dim tusk]

It's not about if you have ADHD or not if you want to learn better and faster you'll learn no matter what

[distant tulip]

you get used to it
just ignore other "crap" read the overview and code
try the example , search youtube as a last option

[dim tusk]

And btw here... This is a simpler version

[wary edge]

If you're on Brave you can turn on Speedreader on Mozilaa.

[dim tusk]

And thinking of it... I don't need to stringify it 😭

[distant tulip]

javaScript objects are compared by reference

same with arrays

[patent tapir]

That’s what really kinda screwed me there, because when someone gives me code, I don’t like to change it because I trust the person who gave me the code to give me code that works

[patent tapir]

But thanks for this, ig

[dim tusk]

Then ask the person who gave you the code?

[dim tusk]

Yeah that's why my brain got loading animations

[cold grove]

[dim tusk]

Yep that's me...

[distant tulip]

welp, you can't just do map.set/get(object, ...)

[simple zodiac]

I think you actually can use references as a key for Maps. Just gotta make sure to pass exactly that reference to retrieve the value

[distant tulip]

not in that sense at least

yeah you can for example use player obj reference as key

[subtle cove]

map.get(bloc)

[distant tulip]

but in his case you can't get a vector3 and get the value

[tight plume]

How do i get weather in stable? Currently getWeather() is in beta.

[dim tusk]

Maybe you could try weatherChange to get the new or previous weather

This auto correct sucks

[distant tulip]

slight problem the weather need to change at least once

[dim tusk]

Yeah that's the thing.

[distant tulip]

change it and change it back using previousWeather

[dim tusk]

Just use before events?

[subtle cove]

Loop...

[tight plume]

What does this mean? Why does it need to?

[dim tusk]

It only triggers when the weather changes unlike the getWeather it will give you the current weather any time

[patent tapir]

This doesn’t even work

Why are maps all high and mighty when that doesn’t even work

[dim tusk]

Because I made a mistake

[distant tulip]

can be avoided using cooldown

[patent tapir]

I removed the .stringify and still didnt work

[dim tusk]

It's not the maps mistakes it's me

[subtle cove]

Rizz purposes only ;-;

[dim tusk]

Send the one you used?

[patent tapir]

  const tpTo = buttonMap.get(data.block.location);
  if (tpTo) data.source.teleport(tpTo);```

[subtle cove]

Depends where ur efficient with actually

[gusty bramble]

Did this help at all?

[patent tapir]

Also why do you people ALWAYS seem to use (block, source) instead of (data)

(block, source) DOESNT WORK

[dim tusk]

it's called destructing

[distant tulip]

his idea is to use the weather event to log the current weather to a variable, but that make it so the weather need to change once so we get the value

[dim tusk]

And wtf you mean doesn't work 😭😭

[subtle cove]

buttonMap.get(JSON.stringify(data.block.location)) 

[dim tusk]

It does work it's a you problem, always use that and I have no problem at all

[patent tapir]

Minecraft literally throws errors when I use (block, source) block.location instead of (data) data.block.location

[dim tusk]

For God sake.... I thought you don't need that

[dim tusk]

That a you problem then

[subtle cove]

Keys were string, so...

[patent tapir]

Why though.

It’s the same code for everyone.

[dim tusk]

I always use it and it works for me

[patent tapir]

“Cannot read property of undefined”, it says

[dim tusk]

world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe(({ block, player }) => {

});```

[patent tapir]

Oh sorry wrong error

[patent tapir]

Yeah doesn’t work.

[distant tulip]

even if not so, they are not the same object

[patent tapir]

Have to use eventData and data

[dim tusk]

Huh?

It works for me 😭😭😭

[patent tapir]

Then why doesn’t it work for me?

[dim tusk]

Wadahell you are doing something wrong that's why

[patent tapir]

Minecraft throws errors

[dim tusk]

Srnd the code

Can't help you when we just imagine here 😭

[subtle cove]

[patent tapir]

It’s literally the same code as everything else except there’s “data” at the start of every event value and it’s “data” instead of “block, source”

If I do the extended values from the subscribe Minecraft hates me

[subtle cove]

Uhh, get the block.location from somewhere

[dim tusk]

You know what's destructuring?

[patent tapir]

Not even a little bit.

[dim tusk]

If not read docs first then come back

[patent tapir]

Ugh

[dim tusk]

Nah jk

[patent tapir]

The doc’s search function DOESNT EVEN WORK THAT WELL WTF

[distant tulip]

you shouldn't use it, it put you in the weird guys list

[patent tapir]

I’m looking for a specific element and the results are from completely different pages

[tight plume]

Im assuming that problem only comes by already created worlds?

[dim tusk]

Umm it's a js built thing not a minecraft thing knly

[dim tusk]

Ohh my god 🥹

[distant tulip]

not sure tbh
i don't think that event fire on world creation

[dim tusk]

Man I'm dead ☠️

[pale terrace]

how can I get crafting slots in inventory?

[subtle cove]

Nuh uh

[dim tusk]

Crafting slots aren't inventory that's why when you close it it returns to your inventory

[patent tapir]

DOESNT WORK RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

IT DOESNT EVEN THROW ERRORS

[dim tusk]

Who wants unreadable codes? At least for a bit...

world.afterEvents.playerBreakBlock.subscribe(({ player, brokenBlockPermutation, itemStackBeforeBreak, itemStackAfterBreak }) => {
    const stats = JSON.parse(player.getDynamicProperty('stats') || '{}');
    stats['minecraft:mined'][brokenBlockPermutation.type.id] = (stats['minecraft:mined'][brokenBlockPermutation.type.id] || 0) + 1;

[patent tapir]

I JUST WANT IT TO WORK

AHHHH

[dim tusk]

Not really lmao

[dim tusk]

Wt-

I ain't commenting because if I do... I'll be dead asf

[distant tulip]

that formatting is the reason i compact all my code to one line

[dim tusk]

Anyways unrelated but tomorrow is our Christmas party

[patent tapir]

WHAT DID I DOOOOOOOOOOOO

IMMA GO BACK TO USING MY SLOW AF IF STATEMENTS

IF YALL DONT TELL ME HOW TO FIX

[subtle cove]

u should practice variable printing

[pale terrace]

Yes, it does not detect it in the inventory and activates my code, that is why I need to detect that the items are not in the crafting slots either.

[patent tapir]

Don’t know what that is sir.

[subtle cove]

sendMessage every declared variable to understand the code flow

[patent tapir]

Oh dear god

Reading variable values like that hurts my brain so much

[onyx lantern]

how can I detect what block the player is holding in mainhand?

[subtle cove]

Like

const loc = data.block
console.warn(loc)//delete this afterwards 
world.sendMessage(JSON.stringify(loc))//delete this afterwards 
if (stuff....){
}```

[patent tapir]

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHHAAHHHAAHAA I WORLD.SENDMESSAGED IT AND IT RETURNES AN EROR IM GOIJNG CRAZY

[subtle cove]

Nice

Now, guess what to fix

[tight plume]

dude read error stacks

[patent tapir]

I didn’t use ur code to sendmessage it

[patent tapir]

What tf are those

[distant tulip]

-# this is cringe but i had to send it

[patent tapir]

DOES IT MATTER IF I USE CONST/LET/VAR INTERGANABLY

[subtle cove]

Nuh uh

[patent tapir]

Ok nice

[subtle cove]

Only matters when u go dynamic with ur variable pool

[patent tapir]

What does it mean that you’re a scripting leader here

What’s the significance

[subtle cove]

Teach how to debug...

[dim tusk]

Btw the xyz are flip that's why

[distant tulip]

-# script-admin channel

[subtle cove]

Acknowledge errors like feedback...

[patent tapir]

Ok but why doesn’t this work const buttonMap = new Map(buttons.map(({ button, tpTo }) => [JSON.stringify(button), tpTo])); const tpTo = buttonMap.get(JSON.stringify(data.block.location)) if (tpTo) data.source.teleport(tpTo);

[tight plume]

why would they even flip that

[dim tusk]

const buttons = [
    { button: { z: 67, y: 70, x: 154 }, tpTo: { x: 10, y: 20, z: 30 } },
    { button: { z: 6, y: 5, x: 4 }, tpTo: { x: 40, y: 50, z: 60 } },
    { button: { z: 9, y: 8, x: 7 }, tpTo: { x: 70, y: 80, z: 90 } },
]
const buttonMap = new Map(buttons.map(({ button, tpTo }) => [JSON.stringify(button), tpTo]));

world.afterEvents.buttonPush.subscribe(({ block, source }) => {
    const tpTo = buttonMap.get(JSON.stringify(block.location));
    if (tpTo) source.teleport(tpTo);
});```

Hey @patent tapir majesty here you go

When you put locations make sure you put it on zyx not xyz

[patent tapir]

I really have to flip every single x/y/z value

[distant tulip]

ask ai to do it

[dim tusk]

I just peed and I remember that getting location for the block it's flipped in most cases

[patent tapir]

NO

[dim tusk]

This works 100% now if it doesn't then idk what you did wrong anymore

[distant tulip]

ok? do it your self

[patent tapir]

I am.

I’m getting so tired of how much I need to figure out with some stupid code.

[dim tusk]

Idk tbh, iirc it's been a year and a half since it happened or last year

-# not sure

[dim tusk]

That's okay you're on level 1 brain hurting

[dim tusk]

It's not the end of the world if you do it yourself oRrrRrR... make another function that flips xyz into zyx 🙃

[subtle cove]

flipped xyz

Letz play with dat laterz

[dim tusk]

I spend 3 minutes of my life with these 5 lines of code ughh
-# not fuckin worth it

[patent tapir]

FINALLY IT’S DONE I CAN GO BACK TO USING COMMAND BLOCKS FOR A BIT HBAGSUVDYTFTYSDGYGBFUYWTVNDST&UDGVYTUWE

[dim tusk]

Did it work?

[distant tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/meme-funny-dead-tired-gif-25412326

[dim tusk]

Yes... Literally me, I just peed and poof I remembered something, things that I shouldn't have forgotten

[patent tapir]

Ok but seriously, why doesn’t data.cancel work in TWO FILES of mine```import { world } from "@minecraft/server"

world.beforeEvents.effectAdd.subscribe((eventData) => {
const entity = eventData.entity.typeId
if (entity == "minecraft:wandering_trader") {
eventData.cancel = true
}
})```

Ok well that’s dumb first of all

I did effect add instead of entity spawn

Incredibly stupid of me

But the other file is definitely chatSend and data.cancel doesn’t work

[dim tusk]

you can't cancel spawn btw 🙃

[dim tusk]

Are you in beta?

world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe(ev => {
   if (ev.message === '!test') {
      ev.cancel = true;
   }
});```

This works idk why it's not working for you

[distant tulip]

lol
yeah, i heard the topic somewhere but can't find it

[patent tapir]

Would you like to see a wall of code

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

const ascendPos = { x: 9999.5, y: 99, z: 9999.5 };
const lookAtPos = { x: 10003.5, y: 99.5, z: 9999.5 };

const netheriteArmor = [
  "minecraft:netherite_helmet",
  "minecraft:netherite_chestplate",
  "minecraft:netherite_leggings",
  "minecraft:netherite_boots",
];

function hasFullArmor(player, armor) {
  const inventory = player.getComponent('inventory').container;
  const foundArmor = new Set();
  for (let i = 0; i < inventory.size; i++) {
    const item = inventory.getItem(i);
    if (item && armor.includes(item.typeId)) {
      foundArmor.add(item.typeId);
    }
  }

  return armor.every(piece => foundArmor.has(piece));
}

function getScore(player, objName) {
  const obj = world.scoreboard.getObjective(objName);
  return obj ? obj.getScore(player) || 0 : 0;
}

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

  if (msg.toLowerCase() === "!ascend") {
    data.cancel = true;


    const coins = getScore(player, "coins");
    const kills = getScore(player, "kills");

    if (coins >= 75000 && kills >= 20 && hasFullArmor(data.sender, netheriteArmor)) {
      system.run(() => {
        player.teleport(ascendPos, { facingLocation: lookAtPos });
      });
    } else {
      system.run(() => {
        player.onScreenDisplay.setTitle({
          rawtext: [{ text: "§5You can't\nascend yet" }],
        });
      });
    }
  }
});```

Too bad

data.cancel doesn’t work

[dim tusk]

The code is running right just the message isn't cancelled

First of all can you code block your code so it can be seen better? Like this

```js
// codes
```

[patent tapir]

I did?

code here

[dim tusk]

you see the word js?

[patent tapir]

What is that supposed to do

It does nothing to me

Looks the same

Acts the same

[dim tusk]

Just try it....

[patent tapir]

//sjajdsajdjadjajsdjads

Yep

Looks the same

Exaaaact same

[subtle cove]

Place on this bloc

[patent tapir]

Loooks the frickin same

[subtle cove]

Kewl

[patent tapir]

What does it do???

[distant tulip]

mobile?

[patent tapir]

Yes

[patent tapir]

WOAH

GEEZ

[dim tusk]

This is what I see rn

[patent tapir]

IT LOOKS THE SAME AS THIS

[dim tusk]

Aww you poor thing... iOS?

[dim tusk]

Back to your problem...

[patent tapir]

now im on the website

does it look the same?

[dim tusk]

world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe(ev => {
   if (ev.message === '!test') {
      ev.cancel = true;
   }
});```

Can you try this @patent tapir and send in the chat *!test* if the message still sends

[patent tapir]

NO

NO IT DOESNT

[patent tapir]

ok

[gusty bramble]

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1317653385033285652 at some point can someone take a look at this ping me if you want anything else to figure out the issue

[patent tapir]

i gtg eat dinner ill be back later

but nobody will miss me

beacause im an a-hole

right?

[dim tusk]

You definitely are.

[patent tapir]

thank you

[dim tusk]

But at least in a good way

[distant tulip]

huh

[subtle cove]

I see progress, it's kewl

[dim tusk]

huhtdog cheese-dog gakalog-kalog itlog

Sorry my bad, it's a Filipino joke 😔

[distant tulip]

whats with that react emoji

remember me is Filipino
that sus

[dim tusk]

Bro loves me that's why

[subtle cove]

🧼

[distant tulip]

lol

[dim tusk]

Ohh my god I didn't know that...

potan- nvm

[tight plume]

🧼

[dim tusk]

Another fellow Filipino

Lezz goo

I'm not alone here.

[distant tulip]

this is flipping crazy

[subtle cove]

Lez dominate

[dim tusk]

Lmao, I'm not sure when my nitro expired

Imma check if I still have it

[patent tapir]

I figured out why it’s not working

[tight plume]

Is getTopmostBlock some sort of broken? Why is it returning the block below instead of block above?

const blockAbove = dim.getTopmostBlock(source.location, source.location.y);
console.warn(blockAbove.typeId);

It returns grass even though theres no grass above me

[dim tusk]

it checks the location below i think?

I checked the dos and i saw the the first argument doesn't accept the Y only XZ then the second argument is the height which you put the location of the player.

that's why it chcked downward i guess?

you could try just use getBlock() but i'm not sure what's your plan tho

const block = player.dimension.getBlock(player.location);
console.error(block?.above()?.typeId)```

[wary edge]

Is there grass below you?

I'm confused. What do you expect the function to return?

[tight plume]

I was expecting it to return undefined since there is no block above me

[wary edge]

Why would it do that?

https://stirante.com/script/server/1.16.0/classes/Dimension.html#getTopmostBlock

[tight plume]

I was expecting it to return the highest block above the player up until to height limit.

[wary edge]

No, it goes downwards.

Its the starting height to search it from.

[tight plume]

Alright, if thats how it works, i shouldn't use it on my case then? What should i use instead?

[wary edge]

Again, what are you trying to do?

[tight plume]

I just told it right here ^ @wary edge

[wary edge]

Ok, what does that mean? Just check if the returned block y val is below the players.

[tight plume]

I am trying to check if player is being hit by sunlight, no block above the player up until to height limit = not hit by sunlight

[wary edge]

.

[tight plume]

I don't understand how getTopmostBlock works, there is a leaves above me, why did it not return leaves?

[wary edge]

Leaves are passable i believe.

[tight plume]

Oh yeap, wonder if there is another function that does this but with options

[thorn flicker]

no

there isn't

[patent tapir]

Hey uh

Why

Why is it

That the instant another player joins my world

My console gets flooded with THIS

And main.js stops working

Do I need to add .id at the end of every scoreboardIdentity functions?

[dim tusk]

then it stops?

[patent tapir]

Nope.

It keeps going until I close the world

It might stop when everyone but me leaves, but idk

[dim tusk]

send that part pls.

[patent tapir]

What do you mean

[dim tusk]

are you getting score of something?

[patent tapir]

Plenty, I use scoreboard for MANY things

But every time I use .scoreboardIdentity I only use scoreboardIdentity

[dim tusk]

maybe the entity uo're truying yo get score is not in the world or invalid

[patent tapir]

Do i need another extension on the end?

Do you want me to send my bp for your scanning

I have no idea wtf I did wrong

It works fine until another player joins

[thorn flicker]

you should just send the function.

[patent tapir]

It’s EVERY script with a .scoreboardIdentity in it

[dim tusk]

just give the function

[thorn flicker]

the entity needs a scoreboard Identity first before you try to get it.

[patent tapir]

WHAT FUNCTION

[thorn flicker]

dude

[dim tusk]

void take my place for a bit...

[patent tapir]

how am i supposed to do that?? the scoreboardIdentity should be given to every player upon joining

[thorn flicker]

lmao

[patent tapir]

by minecraft

[thorn flicker]

please make a post.

[patent tapir]

uh ok

[tight plume]

This works out: dim.getBlockFromRay(source.location, { x: 0, y: 1, z: 0 }, { includePassableBlocks: false })?.block;

[thorn flicker]

👍

[deep garden]

Is playerInteractWithEntity stable yet?

[thorn flicker]

it is

[thorn flicker]

yes

[deep garden]

Thank you @thorn flicker 😊 I thought it was but this is not doing anything so I wanted to make sure

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

world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.subscribe((ev) => {
    const { player, itemStack, target } = ev;

    player.sendMessage("You interacted with an entity!");
});```

[thorn flicker]

looks correct.

what server version are you using?

latest stable is 1.16.0

[deep garden]

"module_name": "@minecraft/server",
      "version": "1.16.0"
        },
        {
      "module_name": "@minecraft/server-ui",
      "version": "1.3.0"```
        }@thorn flicker  yep, which was odd

[thorn flicker]

weird.

[deep garden]

I know right, I am thinking maybe I am using it wrong.

[thorn flicker]

is it in your entry file?

because if not, it wont run.

[deep garden]

import "./SpawnEgg.js"

For my Main.js

And it is called SpawnEgg.js

Maybe I can just put it in my main.js all together and see if it works

/Behavior/scripts/Main.js

/Behavior/scripts/SpawnEgg.js

[thorn flicker]

weird

well, the m is capitalized

is the entry stated in the manifest have a capitalized M too?

[deep garden]

Nope lol 😅 That will do it... So sorry, I forgot to add the entry point

[thorn flicker]

yeah, that would do it

lmao

its fine...

[deep garden]

Yep, as soon as you said that I checked a different addon with scripts and that was missing lol. Thank you for the help

[thorn flicker]

np

have fun

[deep garden]

❤️ Thanks 👍

[quick shoal]

Guys how about this one

The main problem I get is the animation

BC I can't do any animation in chest Form data

Or someone who thinks possible can try I will be grateful

    const location = {x: x+0.5, y: y, z:z+0.5}
    sender.dimension.spawnItem(new ItemStack(item, amount), location);
    itemEntity.clearVerocity();
};

export { ItemSummonCommandCallback }

Would it be possible to add a list for the item input so like this

Dirt, grass, wool, cobblestone 64

Would summon those all those items?

Even better if I could input different amounts for them all like so:

Dirt 32, grass 16, wool 64, cobblestone 48

Oh and can the clear.veracity() be optional? Like you can specify if you want it to trigger or not with an arg

[warm mason]

clearVelocity

[ruby haven]

Is it possible to make an entities hitbox rotate with the animation of the body in RP?

Cause I have this entity that bends it's head so hitting the head doesn't damage it cause the hitbox is still stuck on its original position?

[warm mason]

#1067869022273667152

[warm mason]

I don't understand what you need, explain again

[ruby haven]

I don't think it's possible in entities so I'm asking if it is possible through scripts

[warm mason]

no

But in entities this is quite possible

[gusty bramble]

Ok so right now my script takes a chat command like:

./itemsummon dirt 10 7 6 9
This will summon 10 dirt blocks at 7 6 9

I was wondering if it’s possible to make something like:

./itemsummon dirt 10, wool 20, cobblestone 5 8 8 8
This would summon 10 dirt, 20 wool and 5 cobblestone at 8 8 8

So it can summon multiple items not just one

[warm mason]

Just take the coordinates first and then the rest of the arguments.

[gusty bramble]

How would I do that tho? Because wouldn’t each item need a separate argument which means there’s a limit?

[warm mason]

These are already problems with the library with which you make commands

[gusty bramble]

Wdym?

Well ok I understand that actually. Hummmm can arguments be optional?

I could just add 10 (a good enough amount imo) and if you don’t use them all then it’s fine

[warm mason]

The fact that you cannot accept infinity of arguments is a problem with the library you are using. But you can try accepting a json object. For example, /summonitem {"dirt":10,"stone":30} 1 23 0

Are there any loaders or methods to ensure a player is fully loaded before running a script?

[distant tulip]

define "fully loaded"

[velvet swallow]

By 'fully loaded,' I mean when the player has fully spawned and finished joining the game. Instead of running the script immediately, I want to wait until the player is fully loaded before executing the script.

[slow walrus]

How do you use the playerInteractWithEntity on stable?

like this? world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.suscribe(()=>{ console.warn(`a`) })

u need to get the data given by the event

world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.suscribe((data)=>{
    console.warn(data);
})

[pseudo marlin]

Hello! I wanted to help, I wanted to know if anyone knows how to locate a structure using a script, for example, I locate a structure and it will show its coordination, but it's not like /locate and I wanted to know if there is something like world.getStructure

I've been trying to find something like this for almost 2 days

[wary edge]

No.

I wanted to know if you know what the problem with this script is, can you help me?

[wary edge]

What?

[pseudo marlin]

the error that is causing damage is in that part structure.statusMessage.match

[wary edge]

https://stirante.com/script/server/1.16.0/classes/CommandResult.html

Where did you even get the statusMessage field?

[pseudo marlin]

I've done everything

[pseudo marlin]

I used to have this

but I think it changed, but I think

[turbid delta]

is there an attribute for player saturation

[wary edge]

No.

[turbid delta]

😢

[pseudo marlin]

open but there is nothing 😦

[wary edge]

What?

[pseudo marlin]

but thank you, that's just what I needed

[valid ice]

Is there a way to pass an animation location to the server so I can use it (for instance, the position of a locator on the player model)

[sharp elbow]

I expect not. But if you know the model's skeletal hierarchy and TRS, the animation, and the current time of the animation, then in theory you could compute where the offset should roughly be.

[valid ice]

I just have a particle that sets some endpoints via a script API-calculated formula, and an animation will be happening at the same time- so I want to get the position of a certain point on the model, so I can set where the particle is being "attached" to.

I could move my script API calculations to scripts, but doing trapezoid rule with molang sounds like a royal PITA 😅

[sharp elbow]

Could you make a visual demonstration? I am struggling to visualize this in my head

[valid ice]

I have an animation where I want to attach the line at the end of the rod- the line is particles, and has variables set via script API. The endpoints for the particles is set inside of the script, and the length of the line under sag is also calculated in scripts.

I looked into using seats, but those are hard-position locked on the server, and locators cannot be 'gotten' via scripts.

[tawny jungle]

is there any way to test typeId for items with data?

i need it to only test for a water bottle, but the typeId is potion with data 1

[dim tusk]

Not with scripts

I mean like just full API version

function isWaterBottle(player) {
    const testfor = player.runCommand('testfor @s[hasitem={item=potion,location=slot.weapon.mainhand,data=0}]').successCount;
    if (testfor > 0) return true;
    else return false;
}```

[warm mason]

You can try using the
ItemPotionComponent

[tawny jungle]

thats what i had come to. Darn, thanks

[tawny jungle]

is there not a stable way to do it?

[warm mason]

So far only this

[bright dove]

how do you set a block using scripts ?

how do I fix dates? when someone claims something, it logs the date of the claim, but it goes off my timezone

even if they're in a different timezone it saves in my own, is there a way to fix this?

[ruby haven]

Can you force a player to get kicked out of the game?

[dim tusk]

If single player no..m but multiplayer yes

[buoyant canopy]

can we make dimension.fillBlocks destroy blocks
or can we replicate the action of fill ~~~ ~~~ air destroy with scripts?

[dim tusk]

If you're in single player you can but you need to edit the player.json

[wary edge]

There are two methods but they both invovled runCommand.

[buoyant canopy]

ok

i will use the regular fill command then

[distant tulip]

-# force a game crash

[dim tusk]

Oof I kinda forget, use while true

It does the script over BLA BLA

[distant tulip]

nah that crash the host world too, maybe some weird json ui form

[cold grove]

High resolution images/animations on json ui crashes the game

[warm mason]

I remember when I kicked a player I just showed him a huge text through the title until he crashed

[dim tusk]

Even better... Broken json ui

[elfin rose]

can anyone give me getScore function

[distant tulip]

world.scoreboard.getObjective(id).getScore(participant)

[elfin rose]

this code aint working

function getPlayerScore(player, objectiveName) {

    if (!objective) {
        player.sendMessage(`§cObjective '${objectiveName}' not found.`);

        return 0; // Default to 0 if retrieval fails
    }
}```

idk why

[distant tulip]

errors?

[distant tulip]

const score = objective.getScore(player);

[elfin rose]

anything wrong with this?

You can use this. Examples of use:

[jolly citrus]

how do i get the item stack of minecraft:item entity

[sharp elbow]

A few issues.

• PlayerJoinAfterEvent does not return a "player" property. You have either playerId or playerName.
• moneyObjective could be undefined if the scoreboard objective does not exist. There's a condition for this just below that creates said objective, but the moneyObjective variable is still undefined; accessing getScore will throw an error.

[distant tulip]

item component

[jolly citrus]

does it have all the properties?

[warm mason]

And there is no need to use try/catch so often, the debugger copes quite well with outputting errors and outputting errors to the player in the chat is a bad practice

[jolly citrus]

if i add it to a player's inventory will it exactly match what was dropped

[distant tulip]

yeah

[warm mason]

I corrected the second one

[distant tulip]

getComponent("item").itemStack

[elfin rose]

not working

[sharp elbow]

What do you experience now?

[elfin rose]

same error

[sharp elbow]

Refer to my comment earlier

[sharp elbow]

You probably want const player = event.playerId; although I'm not sure if the player's ID is acceptable as a score identity

May need to use world.getEntity in that case?

[warm mason]

Or switch to PlayerSpawnAfterEvent, yea

[elfin rose]

it says that and removes money from my bal

That must be part of a different system not shown here. Your code snippet does not call setPlayerScore.

You should probably open a post in #1067535382285135923

[elfin rose]

should i just use this

// Get player's score from the scoreboard using /scoreboard players
function getPlayerScore(player, objectiveName) {
    try {
        const score = world.scoreboard.getObjective(objectiveName)?.getScore(player);
        return score ? score : 0;
    } catch (error) {
        player.sendMessage(`§cError retrieving score: ${error.message}`);
        return 0;
    }
}

// Set player's score on the scoreboard using /scoreboard players
function setPlayerScore(player, objectiveName, newScore) {
    try {
        world.scoreboard.getObjective(objectiveName)?.setScore(player, newScore);
        return true;
    } catch (error) {
        player.sendMessage(`§cFailed to set score for '${objectiveName}': ${error.message}`);
        return false;
    }
}

[warm mason]

Ahhhhh, this is all bad code. I'll just rewrite this normally

[elfin rose]

ok

[jolly citrus]

can anybody see if there might be edge cases where this might function improperly

world.afterEvents.playerBreakBlock.subscribe((data) => {
    const { player, block } = data;
    const { dimension } = block;

    const centerLocation = block.center();
    const nearbyItems = dimension.getEntities({
        type: "minecraft:item",
        location: centerLocation,
        maxDistance: 1.5,
    });

    if (nearbyItems.length > 0) {
        const itemEntity = nearbyItems[0];
        const itemComponent = itemEntity.getComponent("item");

        if (itemComponent) {
            /** @type {ItemStack} */
            const itemStack = itemComponent.itemStack;

            const inventory = player.getComponent("inventory")?.container;

            if (inventory) {
                const addedSuccessfully = inventory.addItem(itemStack);

                if (!addedSuccessfully) {
                    dimension.spawnItem(itemStack, block.location);
                }

                itemEntity.remove();
            }
        }
    }
});

meant to be an auto-pickup script, for me (world host) it works fine i havent tested from any other player's perspective tho

[elfin rose]

oh ok

k imma try it out

works

[gusty bramble]

Can an item despawning be detected?

[jolly citrus]

entityRemove i think

world.beforeEvents.entityRemove.subscribe(({ removedEntity }) => {
    if (removedEntity.typeId === "minecraft:item") {
        // code here
    }
})

idk if it's subscribed to when items get removed but maybe

try it out and see

if u want the info of the stack when it's removed use this

world.beforeEvents.entityRemove.subscribe(({ removedEntity }) => {
    if (removedEntity.typeId === "minecraft:item") {
        const item = removedEntity.getComponent("item").itemStack;
        // code here
    }
})

[distant tulip]

it dose

fun fact, when you pick up an item, the item get a velocity boost away from the player

[jolly citrus]

why does the "picked up" item not get removed from the ground with .remove()

world.afterEvents.playerBreakBlock.subscribe((data) => {
    const { player, block } = data;
    const { dimension } = block;

    const centerLocation = block.center();
    const nearbyItems = dimension.getEntities({
        type: "minecraft:item",
        location: centerLocation,
        maxDistance: 1,
    });

    if (nearbyItems.length > 0) {
        const inventory = player.getComponent("inventory")?.container;

        nearbyItems.forEach((itemEntity) => {
            const itemComponent = itemEntity.getComponent("item");

            if (itemComponent && inventory) {
                /** @type {ItemStack} */
                const itemStack = itemComponent.itemStack;

                const addedSuccessfully = inventory.addItem(itemStack);

                if (!addedSuccessfully) {
                    dimension.spawnItem(itemStack, block.location);
                }

                itemEntity.remove();
            }
        });
    }
});

they still get the item in their inv but it doesnt get removed

ohh

nvm

[steady canopy]

just do a raycast

[steady canopy]

just create a single string argument, get that string argument and then parse it. Example:

/summonitem "dirt 32,grass 32" 10 60 10

so this arg is called itemList

const itemListArg = "dirt 32,grass 32"
const itemsAmounts = itemListArg.split(",")
const itemsParsed = itemsAmounts.map(itemAmount => {
  const splited = itemAmount.split(" ")
  return { id: splited[0], amount: Number(splited[1]) }
})

itemsParsed.forEach(item => {
   sender.dimension.spawnItem(new ItemStack(item.id, item.amount), location);
})

Your command handler should support quoted args. So "dirt 32,grass 32" can be a single arg.

[warm mason]

no

Maximum - you can save the shape of the circle so that you don’t have to generate it again later

[buoyant canopy]

nice, i don't know how i got it right first try

[distant tulip]

there is multiple algo to generate one
using a grid is a bad way

[buoyant canopy]

oh, i would like to learn

[distant tulip]

give me a sec to look if i still have a script

[buoyant canopy]

in my scenario i need a grid of coords that is in this shape

[distant tulip]

function generatePolarCircle(radius) {
    const p = [];
    for (let r = 0; r <= radius; r++) {
        for (let t = 0; t < 2 * Math.PI; t += Math.PI / 180) {
            const x = Math.round(r * Math.cos(t));
            const z = Math.round(r * Math.sin(t));
            p.push({ x, z });
        }
    }
    return p
}

r is the radius

20 radius result

[sharp elbow]

🤔 wouldn't the local variable r shadow the function parameter r?

[warm mason]

I remember how, because of this algorithm, my circle was generated with very serious lags

[buoyant canopy]

can you return it as {x, z} and still be an object?

[distant tulip]

oh yeah
the name was something else, i just changed it to share it
should be fixed now

[buoyant canopy]

i mean is p.push({x, z}) valid syntax

[sharp elbow]

Yes, the property name takes on the parameter name; so it will return an object with {x: number, z: number}

It's shorthand for {x: x, z: z}

[warm mason]

Bad option. In this version there will be 7200 iterations, since their number = 360*R, while in the previous version there were (r*2)**2 = 1600

[distant tulip]

the grid is better?

[buoyant canopy]

huh, didn't know that!

[buoyant canopy]

uh what does the second loop loop through?

[warm mason]

Use your first code

[buoyant canopy]

well, my code uses a sqrt while his uses round, cos, and sin
which is better for performance?

[warm mason]

your code

[warm mason]

.

[distant tulip]

angles (positions around the circle)

[buoyant canopy]

ok, thank you very much

[autumn seal]

This looks really smooth

[warm mason]

However, it is no different from the option with grid

[autumn seal]

except in performance?

[warm mason]

The first one is better in terms of performance

[distant tulip]

my grid one don't look that good unless it us hollow

unless i am doing something wrong

[buoyant canopy]

@warm mason i did some math, and his method is more efficient if r is 90 or greater

[autumn seal]

The 'random' bits poking out does not look as good as the smooth one your other method provided

[buoyant canopy]

so because i am not going with large radi i will use my method.

[warm mason]

Yes, but in such large circles you will have to use even more iterations through his method, otherwise there will be gaps

[buoyant canopy]

does it leave gaps?

[warm mason]

?

[distant tulip]

what @past blaze is using in his worldedit

[warm mason]

Something similar to your method

[past blaze]

What's happening?

[distant tulip]

not mine btw

[odd path]

Is it possible to identify a cave with a script?

[warm mason]

This means he is either a scientific genius who invented a super optimized method, or his method is bad

[distant tulip]

just looking for the best way to generate a filled circle

[buoyant canopy]

the grid method:
f(r) = (2r)²
Minato's method:
g(r) = 360r
solve f(r) < g(r) for r greater than 0

[past blaze]

All my method does is generate points around a circumference. Nothing to do with "filled circles"

[buoyant canopy]

in other words, the grid method uses less iterations if r is less than 90

[distant tulip]

@warm mason

[autumn seal]

Identify as in check if you can see the sky at any given location under a y level or test the type of cave?

[buoyant canopy]

anyway, i want to run a function each coordinates in the grid one tick per location,
and i am failing to use async

[odd path]

How to do this?

[buoyant canopy]

oh try it with a radius of 90

[odd path]

Like, how do I know I'm not looking at the sky?

[warm mason]

#1067535608660107284 message

[distant tulip]

yeah it is slower in small radius

[warm mason]

and

[odd path]

@autumn seal

[buoyant canopy]

huh, despite using the same number of iterations, the grid is almost double the speed?

[autumn seal]

The obvious answer would be to iterate upwards looking for solid blocks but the most elegant answer is probably the is_underground filter

I've never messed with it so I can't say

sorry I can't help more

[buoyant canopy]

round, cos, and sin must be really slow

[warm mason]

function isUndeground(player) {
  let block = player.dimension.getTopmostBlock(player.location)
  if (player.location.y >= block.y) return false
  while (!block.isSolid && block.y > player.dimension.heightRange.min) {
    if (player.location.y >= block.y) return false
    block = block.below()
  }
  return true
}

[warm mason]

Number of iterations varies

And the radius is the same

[distant tulip]

seem so
it is the iterations that make it slow at larger radius

[buoyant canopy]

ah makes sense, computers take longer to count from 10000 to 10100 compared to from 0 to 100

[odd path]

@warm mason
Isn't the cave a biome? Wouldn't it be possible to create a biome filter in the If and have the code execute?

For example:

BlockTypes.get("cave").id

[warm mason]

Firstly, you cannot get the biome in which the player is located through scripts, and secondly, the “cave” block does not exist

[odd path]

When you create an apawn-rule, how do you make the entity spawn in the cave?

[warm mason]

Shows the location of the selected biome, not the biome in the selected location

[warm mason]

I don't know, I didn't do such spawns

If you don't like my method, then do your own.

[odd path]

Does yours work? I haven't tested it yet

[odd path]

You are ignorant, shove your method up your ass

I was just asking for help

[warm mason]

Just don't use it if you're not happy with its functionality.

[distant tulip]

mob filters do have is_underground
maybe use that

[thorn flicker]

...

where did this hostility come from

[warm mason]

We need to understand the principle of operation of is_undeground and make its analogue in scripts (which is basically what I tried to do), so that there are no crutches with entities

[distant tulip]

is_undeground only check top block?

[warm mason]

I don't know how it works. But I made a function that is similar in functionality

Yes, I made an exact analogue of this function

[distant tulip]

yeah, that is disappointing tbh
there is no perfect way to check for caves/undeground

[thorn flicker]

you can check for biome cave tags in filters

[warm mason]

I'm waiting for the Biome class to be added to the scriptAPI

[thorn flicker]

well, there is BiomeTypes

but same here, being able to check for biomes in the api would be awesome.

[distant tulip]

there is getClooestBiome but it is limited

[thorn flicker]

ik

[warm mason]

It will also cause huge lags when you try to find out the biome in the current location

[thorn flicker]

not a good solution for checking what current biome an entity is in.

[buoyant canopy]

I have a dimension.getBiome(Vector3)
method for anyone who is interested
https://github.com/Yasser4440/Biome-Detector

[sharp elbow]

Bonus tip! Use the new "minecraft:transient" component—it keeps Minecraft from saving your entity

With that there should be no need for despawning on world initialize, right?

[buoyant canopy]

oh that's genius

[sharp elbow]

You must be the genius to have pulled a 4D chess move like this though

I wonder if it only works in format version 1.21.50 though

[buoyant canopy]

i must have added it, and forgot about it lol

[distant tulip]

why not use scriptevent

[buoyant canopy]

oh i remember now, the onWorldInitilize function was for the reload command, the entity persists if not done

[buoyant canopy]

thanks a lot @distant tulip
you helped me make this addon

[distant tulip]

your welcome
-# i don't remember lol

[buoyant canopy]

i am not using a scriptevent because the entity itself is being spawned by a script and i need it in the same context, if i send a scriptevent event i create another context

[buoyant canopy]

all the async stuff you thought me

[distant tulip]

wasn't that for a fill function

[buoyant canopy]

how to force load a chunk without using a ticking area?

[thorn flicker]

there's no api alternative

how is this script api related

[distant tulip]

minecraft:tick_world component

[tidal wasp]

Wait this is molang not script api

[thorn flicker]

I suggested this at first

[tidal wasp]

Whoops

[thorn flicker]

but to spawn an entity with that component in an unloaded area, wouldnt the area needed to be loaded?

[distant tulip]

commands can do that no?
if not spawn and tp it

[thorn flicker]

?

so the api method can't but commands can?

in that case why not just use the tick area command...

[patent tapir]

How do I .teleport() players into a certain dimension???? ```js

data.sender.teleport(tpTo, { Dimension: "overworld" })``` doesn’t work

[thorn flicker]

dimension, not Dimension

[distant tulip]

limited to 6, or was it 10?

[patent tapir]

It threw an error when I did that tho

[thorn flicker]

and what was that error exactly?

[thorn flicker]

im not sure.

[patent tapir]

[Scripting][error]-TypeError: Native type conversion failed. Interface property ['dimension'] expected type: Dimension | undefined (failed parsing interface to Function argument [1]) at <anonymous> (chatSystem.js:140)

[thorn flicker]

oh right, it needs a dimension, not a dimension id (which is a string)

[patent tapir]

I tried world.getDimension too

[buoyant canopy]

i tried it, it doesn't work

[patent tapir]

It didnt throw an error it just ignored the entire dimension option

[thorn flicker]

show me how you wrote this.

[distant tulip]

what part doesn't? i used it before

[patent tapir]

{ dimension: world.getDimension("overworld") }```

[buoyant canopy]

i place a command block in an area
go far away
spawn my entity
teleport it to the command block
the entity ticks but the command block doesn't.

[thorn flicker]

that should work...

[patent tapir]

Do /tickingarea

[buoyant canopy]

i know about this command i don't want to use it.

[thorn flicker]

the point is not to use that

[patent tapir]

Why not? It works very well

[patent tapir]

OH

[patent tapir]

Wtf what did I do different??? It worked that time

I guess that’s not an issue anymore lmao

[buoyant canopy]

there is a limited number of ticking areas per world
and i need to load multiple chunks at once

[thorn flicker]

oh

[distant tulip]

use another command in the spawn location to test if it tick there
(remember to get away from the location)

[thorn flicker]

🤷

it happens

lol

[distant tulip]

can we see your full code @patent tapir ?

[thorn flicker]

they fixed it.

[distant tulip]

oh, alr

[buoyant canopy]

i did test that too,
when i summon the entity and leave the area the command block ticks, but it doesn't when i leave the area first

[patent tapir]

It works now

Why do you need to see it

Sorry for the delay I just recorded a hacker in my world for proof

[distant tulip]

nvm

[distant tulip]

weird, that is definitely not the case in my testing

[thorn flicker]

they thought you still needed help.

[woven mural]

Hey

I'm having problems when I put an enchantment on an item, when I leave the world the game crashes

[buoyant canopy]

i have tried /tickingarea
eventually all 10 slots fill up before the the remove function can catch up to them

and if i don't use system.run it won't work.

[devout dune]

const spawnLocation: Vector3 = {
      x: Math.round(player.location.x + 0.5 + (Math.floor(Math.random() * 100) - 50)), // Random X offset rounded to nearest whole number
      y: 150, // I WANT THIS TO BE AT 150 WORLD HEIGHT. REGARDLESS OF PLAYER LOCATION
      z: Math.round(player.location.z + 0.5 + (Math.floor(Math.random() * 100) - 50)) // Random Z offset rounded to nearest whole number
    };```


Hey! I am trying to create a spawn location. That is at player positiion (x / z)
BUT I want the y spawn pos to be '150' units. So i can always get the object to spawn at the same height in the sky! 

Any easy built in methods? like ```player.dimension.GetPosition(player.pos.x, 150, player.pos.z)```

@wary edge Hey, any idea! 😄

[wary edge]

This works...not sure what the issue is.

[devout dune]

Yea by the end of that i realized 150 was already world height..... thanks hahah mb

[buoyant canopy]

i have found the solution, if i slow my ticking function to 2 ticks and double its work the ticking areas won't fill up faster than they clear

[dim tusk]

10 ticking areas only maybe you mean 6 the max size of tick world component can only have

[wary edge]

Is there any way to grab all entities in a world and filter them via family without needing to spawn them? I could easily do this with items as ItemStack has a public constructor but not Entity.

[deep yew]

make it ig

EntityStack

[patent tapir]

Why doesn’t this force the button to respawn???```js

      while (world.getDimension("overworld").getBlock({ x: 10003, y: 101, z: 9999 }).typeId === "air") {
        world.getDimension("overworld").runCommand('setblock 10003 101 9999 crimson_button["facing_direction"=4]')
      }
      while (world.getDimension("overworld").getBlock({ x: 9995, y: 101, z: 9999 }).typeId === "air") {
        world.getDimension("overworld").runCommand('setblock 9995 101 9999 crimson_button["facing_direction"=5]')
      }```

[deep yew]

try minecraft:air

[patent tapir]

that works, ty!

Why

Why the stone face

I only didn’t do minecraft: because last time I used that in a block comparison it didn’t work

[deep yew]

yeah with block.typeId it returns minecraft:block, but some other ways might not return minecraft: in the string

depends

[dim tusk]

No trying to be that guy but... Why you using run command?

Use the API version of it as much as possible

[deep yew]

I was going to ask as well but what would you use?

[dim tusk]

getBlock() -> setPermutation

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

const block = world.getDimension('overworld').getBlock({ x: 0, y: 0, z: 0});
block.setPermutation(BlockPermutation.resolve('minecraft:button', { <state name>: <state value>});```

I missed a thing but just snippet

[patent tapir]

I looked at those and decided I wasn’t going to because I didn’t know how to :P

[dim tusk]

Ask then 🤷

[patent tapir]

Wasn’t going to because what I am doing seems to work fine.

[deep yew]

may not work out of simulation distance/ticking area

[dim tusk]

Fun fact using run command on script can slow down a game even if it's just a bit it matters 🙃

[patent tapir]

Also doesn’t setBlock api function thingy and setBlockPermutation run at different ticks, so buttons would break?

[dim tusk]

use getBlocks 🤷

[patent tapir]

It’s IN a tickingarea

[deep yew]

I said may not work out of one, so it's good it's in one

[dim tusk]

What you said confused me

Then find a solution 😭 just because it doesn't work just stop finding a solution to make it work?

[patent tapir]

I would have to set the block to a button before doing this, so the waiting time between them would break the button because it isn’t anchored to a wallllllll

[dim tusk]

Anyways, just don't change it if you don't want... Just dnt rush it

[dim tusk]

They're the same function of using the command and the script API, API is just much faster

[patent tapir]

And if runCommand didn’t work for one tick (which is the reason I put it in a while loop in the first place), that probably wouldn’t either

Too much lag completely skipped the runCommand

[dim tusk]

Idk what you are doing so I ain't saying shit now...

[dim tusk]

that's why use API version of it😭

[patent tapir]

What you want me to do wouldn’t work, period because it’s TWO DIFFERENT FUNCTIONS and the while loop CANT CHECK FOR PERMUTATIONS

Unless it can and I’m dumb.

And I’m exceptionally stupid.

[ruby haven]

import { world, system } from "@minecraft/server";
import { getArenaCenter } from "./center.js";


world.afterEvents.entityDie.subscribe(({ damageSource: { damagingEntity }, deadEntity }) => {

  if (!damagingEntity || damagingEntity.typeId !== 'mz:smile') return;

  if (deadEntity.typeId === 'minecraft:player' && damagingEntity.typeId === 'mz:smile') {
    const center = getArenaCenter();
    deadEntity.setProperty('smile:ride', true);

    deadEntity.camera.fade({
      fadeColor: { red: 0, green: 0, blue: 0 },
      fadeTime: { fadeInTime: 1, holdTime: 1, fadeOutTime: 1 }
    });
    deadEntity.camera.setCamera('minecraft:first_person');

    damagingEntity.kill();
    damagingEntity.clearVelocity();
    damagingEntity.triggerEvent('bridge:fake_death');

    damagingEntity.teleport(center, { facingLocation: deadEntity.location });

    deadEntity.triggerEvent('bridge:no_movement');

    let dx = deadEntity.location.x - damagingEntity.location.x;
    let dz = deadEntity.location.z - damagingEntity.location.z;

    let length = Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dz * dz);

    if (length === 0) {
      dx = 1;
      dz = 0;
      length = Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dz * dz);
    }

    const normalizedX = dx / length;
    const normalizedZ = dz / length;

    const newX = damagingEntity.location.x + normalizedX * 5;
    const newY = damagingEntity.location.y;
    const newZ = damagingEntity.location.z + normalizedZ * 5;

    system.runTimeout(() => {
      deadEntity.teleport({ x: newX, y: newY, z: newZ }, { facingLocation: damagingEntity.location });
    }, 20);

    system.runTimeout(() => {
      deadEntity.runCommand('/execute as @s at @s positioned ~~~ rotated ~110~ run camera @s set minecraft:free ease 4 out_cubic pos ^4 ^6 ^7 facing @s');
    }, 40);
    system.runTimeout(() => {
      deadEntity.triggerEvent('bridge:health');
    }, 500);
    system.runTimeout(() => {
      deadEntity.kill();
    }, 550)
  }
});

[ruby haven]

As you can see in this code after a player is killed it won't actually die cause it has a minimum health component so this is actually a death scene code and after a few seconds of the death scene there is an event that will override the players minimum health component so it will actually die in game but the problem is it doesn't override it

[dim tusk]

Huh? When did you get that 😭

[patent tapir]

getDimension().setBlockType
getDimension().setBlockPermutation

Two different functions

[dim tusk]

In-game try /event to know if it really overrides it

[dim tusk]

Funny thing your format is very wrong

[patent tapir]

……

[ruby haven]

Could it be that it is confusing who is the real deadentity? Cause I actually also kill the damaging entity

[dim tusk]

And if the run command works why doesn't the API, some kind of magic?

[dim tusk]

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

const block = world.getDimension('overworld').getBlock({ x: 0, y: 0, z: 0 });

// Example: Setting a stone button facing north and powered
block.setPermutation(BlockPermutation.resolve('minecraft:crimson_button', { 
    facing: 'north', 
    powered: true 
}));

[patent tapir]

really.

That works?

Well you need to remember that I’M REALLY BAD AT JAVASCRIPT, you CANNOT expect me to know EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW, ESPECIALLY not the little things. And searching for things on the docs is an absolute PAIN because the docs search function is AWFUL

Specifically bedrock.dev

[dim tusk]

Use other docs

Like Jayly, stirante or Ms docs

[dim tusk]

No need to tell blud

[patent tapir]

Turns out I’ve only ever heard of one of those, and I don’t even remember why I stopped using it

[dim tusk]

I keep telling you it would work but you keep saying "it wouldn't work because it's in while loop, it's two different functions BLA BLA BLA BLA"

[patent tapir]

Oh im sorry, Microsoft docs i do use but only when it shows up in DuckDuckGo

[patent tapir]

Yeah because I din’t know better

And hate to ask

Because you people hate answering me

[dim tusk]

Then don't assume first

[dim tusk]

I hate answering people like you? When bro? you see my message history on this server? You see that I help people as much as possible without thinking who are you right?

[deep yew]

Chill, both of you

nobody's winning

[dim tusk]

I'm chill lmao, she's/he's the one who keep saying that BLA BLA BLA and I just help her/him but still insist it 🤷

[patent tapir]

I get the feeling that I’m particularly disliked here just because of how much I ask things because of how little I know.

But whatever

[dim tusk]

You're assuming, like... Very

[wary edge]

Calm down.

[deep yew]

Nobody is disliked for asking questions

Just don't ask to ask, "can I ask a question?"

and don't be scared to not know

ignorance is a gift to some, but always allows learning to be had

Please let it go, Coddy

[dim tusk]

You guys started it 🤷🤷

[deep yew]

...

[dim tusk]

Hmm, sorry for everyone then... Change topics 🤔

[patent tapir]

Cool, so this should work ```js

while (world.getDimension("overworld").getBlock({ x: 10003, y: 101, z: 9999 }).typeId === "minecraft:air") {
world.getDimension("overworld").getBlock({ x: 10003, y: 101, z: 9999 }).setPermutation(BlockPermutation.resolve('minecraft:crimson_button', { facing: 4 }));
}
while (world.getDimension("overworld").getBlock({ x: 9995, y: 101, z: 9999 }).typeId === "minecraft:air") {
world.getDimension("overworld").getBlock({ x: 9995, y: 101, z: 9999 }).setPermutation(BlockPermutation.resolve('minecraft:crimson_button', { facing: 5 }));
}```

For some reason you used ‘north’ in your code but it only accepts numbers…?

[dim tusk]

Yes it should be, as long as that location is ticking and the states you put isvalid

[patent tapir]

Just like in /setblock

[dim tusk]

It's just a snippet, sorry... just change jt

[deep yew]

might be facing_direction?

[patent tapir]

Oh, that might be it

[patent tapir]

I did

[dim tusk]

One more question, why do you use while?

That might crash your game tho

[deep yew]

Should use system.runInterval

[patent tapir]

Because 1 tick apparently isn’t enough to run it when the world is super laggy.

Also

    at <anonymous> (betterButtonTp.js:242)```

[dim tusk]

^

[deep yew]

facing_direction

[wary edge]

Was that before or after using the API rather the runCommand?

[dim tusk]

the states don't exist on the block then,

[patent tapir]

It was the runCommand

[ruby haven]

You can't override minimum health component cause once you die the game expects you to be dead like in expectator there is no way for you to be revived

[dim tusk]

@patent tapir

[patent tapir]

I goottt it thaaanks

[dim tusk]

And it's 'north', 'east' etc...

[ruby haven]

Any alternatives around this I want the player to be alive so that I can recreate the death scene I tried damage sensor but it doesn't work

[dim tusk]

Btw where are you using it? It's still kinda weird that you use while

[patent tapir]

In code where if you push a button, it breaks the button, plays out a little animation, tp’s the pusher back to spawn, then replaces the button

[dim tusk]

can't you create a component group then put a damage sensor then have an event that adds that damage sensor and removing it

[dim tusk]

hmm I think I can give you a simple script that does that without while function

[dim tusk]

Are you using the script I gave you before, y'know... the xyz are flipped

[patent tapir]

Yes, it’s all over my code now.

I even made my own map for warps.

At least, if that’s what you’re talking about.

[ruby haven]

How would this work?

[patent tapir]

Hey uh.

The api thing.

[dim tusk]

const buttons = [
    { button: { z: 67, y: 70, x: 154 }, tpTo: { x: 10, y: 20, z: 30 } },
    { button: { z: 6, y: 5, x: 4 }, tpTo: { x: 40, y: 50, z: 60 } },
    { button: { z: 9, y: 8, x: 7 }, tpTo: { x: 70, y: 80, z: 90 } },
]
const buttonMap = new Map(buttons.map(({ button, tpTo }) => [JSON.stringify(button), tpTo]));

world.afterEvents.buttonPush.subscribe(({ block, source }) => {
    const tpTo = buttonMap.get(JSON.stringify(block.location));
    if (tpTo) source.teleport(tpTo);
});```

*?*

[patent tapir]

It doesn’t replace the button.

[patent tapir]

Yes, i did use that

Why do you ask

[patent tapir]

I’m now saying. ^

[dim tusk]

Because I'm using it for sample

[dim tusk]

Then you probably did something worng again but just resort using the run command till I did the script

[patent tapir]

I can send you the whole darn file if you want to.

That part doesn’t work for some reason.

[dim tusk]

Nah it's good

[dim tusk]

wym? Sorry can you say your idea or what you're trying to do again?
