Script API General

[thorn flicker]

maybe when that comes they could add a way to check for ticking areas, could be cool

[dense skiff]

annoying... i thought i noticed you could get the feedback from the command at some point or was i mistaken

Btw is there any other good way to load just a single chunk before I go try stuff lol

[thorn flicker]

only if the command is successful or not

I guess you could try to use that to tell how many ticking areas there are

maybe use a world dynamic property, and increment this property value everytime the command is successful?

[sour flame]

Win + R, type %appdata%, goto mojang/path/to/minecraftpe/options.txt, search for "viewdistance", set value to 16

[dense skiff]

That's actually a fair idea for checking how many are available -- just create till it fails and then however many you created is how many are free

Someone could definitely make their own little wrapper for the tickingarea commands so you could access them more like an api

Nevermind the commandResult for a successful tickingarea placement is the same as an unsuccessful one

[oak lynx]

Item json minecraft:interact_button triggers itemUse event right?

[fiery solar]

If the ticking area placement is unsuccessful the successCount should be 0. If it is successful it will be 1.

[slow walrus]

this is what I'm using, though it still needs a tickingarea. In my case we're strictly not using any permanent tickingareas so should work most of the time.

await_chunks isn't super optimised since the game has to check all the blocks in the volume, but the others are fine afaik

[lone sequoia]

hey guys im developing a framework to create addons at the speed of light, does anyone wanna try it out?

[tight plume]

thats impossible, unless the framework has no mass

[slow walrus]

lol

[subtle cove]

How heavy are bytes

[slow walrus]

"around 1 attogram"

[spark topaz]

Petition to start forcing everyone to use typescript

[slow walrus]

they should replace QuickJS with deno

[coral ermine]

What if entity location chunk is not loaded and it keep spamming “Failed to get property location at <anonymous>”

const { x: ex, y: ey, z: ez } = entity?.location;

[subtle cove]

Cus entity is not valid

[spark topaz]

It's not loaded so ther is technically nothing there

[coral ermine]

It’s valid

[subtle cove]

Check again...

[fiery solar]

An entity is only valid if it's in a loaded chunk

[subtle cove]

Ive only seen "Failed to get property" errors when an object isn't valid, in script api

[coral ermine]

Well how to make it do not spam in console until chunk is loaded?

[subtle cove]

-# hence entity.isValid()

[slow walrus]

try { /** code */ } catch (e) {}

@warm mason lazy coding 🤷‍♂️

[dense skiff]

That's a solid solution -- it doesn't quite fit into my use case so I'll have a think about it. I think I need to go back to designing anyway before worrying about this.

[dim tusk]

Having no internet sucks but also quite fun

I slept 8 hours because of that

[dim tusk]

jokes on you... I am using ts since then

[jolly citrus]

I want to switch to ts but I do not have the motivation to rewrite 30 files that I’ve created over the span of a year

I have no idea what is going on in half of them because the code is so messy

[dim tusk]

Rewrite them one by one 🤷

[jolly citrus]

Well exactly yes that’s what I’ll have to do but do I want to? no

Even opening them to make small edits is painful to my brain

no idea what all the variable names are supposed to mean unless I look for the definition and everything is hardcoded

[slow walrus]

the best time to clean up tech debt is right now. Don't let it compound, eventually you or someone else will have to do it, and it'll just get worse and worse

[dim tusk]

That is the point of rewriting it... You rewrite it to learn, but also remove junks and unneeded parts of your script plus for readability and reduce file size

[tiny tartan]

how do i show action form when player first time spawns i have tried playerSpawn event with initialSpawn but when i load the world it doesn't show any form, should i use system.runTimeout?

[quick shoal]

Force show

if (response.canceled && response.cancelationReason === 'userBusy') return form(player)

[tiny tartan]

Thnx

[dim tusk]

Quick question... It's not possible to get the file name inside the folder right?

Out of curiosity since I could do it on non mc js

[neat hound]

Probably Not and no one should be able to do anything in FileSystem ever. Can you imagine the havoc?

[dim tusk]

Not outside the scripts folder... Just inside of it. Not the whole system

https://tenor.com/view/chaos-gif-22919457

[chilly fractal]

You can't read files inside or outside the scripts folder, you can import (and maybe even dynamic importing if they added it back) but you can only import js files, and I'm sure you know that by now like c'mon, you're coddy the G.

[dim tusk]

Is double checking bad 😃

My mind is mixed with non and mc js lmao

Looks like I'll be making a python that converts multiple json into an object or map

sigh

[chilly fractal]

You won't be able to, you can't use require as mc doesn't use commonJS and you can't import json or other files because they don't "EXPORT" anything. And there is no file manager system in mc. Imagine being able to access the Player's world directly from your script lmao

The havoc

[dim tusk]

Hmm, why calling me coddy the G makes me giggle a bit

[dim tusk]

I like chaos, that's why my last name is chaos

[chilly fractal]

Coddy xxxx Chaos?

[dim tusk]

So umm, idk if this is script related shii but is it normal that fishing hook doesn't have an owner?

Like when the player used a fishing rod to spawn the fishing hook it's normal that it doesn't have an owner instead of the player who spawned it?

[distant tulip]

why should it?

[dim tusk]

🤷

Why shouldn't?

[distant tulip]

it doesn't give the thrower any credit directly

[chilly fractal]

Idk it killed it's owner or ran away ig?

[dim tusk]

hit and run

[chilly fractal]

Assault on minor and hit and run

And it is on the loose, if you find anything about that fishing rod please Head to the nearest fish police station to report it

[chilly fractal]

As it also committed murder and murdered 3 fish cops so far

[dim tusk]

Damn, looks like I'll be using !player.isOnGround instead of player.isFalling

[chilly fractal]

Anyway gtg

[dim tusk]

the isFalling isn't triggered when the player doesn't move an inch example I'm afk and I tp'd myself 20 blocks above, the isFalling isn't triggered ughh

[chilly fractal]

Cya soon.

[chilly fractal]

It's triggered when they jump and free fall into the gates of heaven

[dim tusk]

suspect is wearing a red and white hoodie and a black hair with some sort of string that connects

[sage sparrow]

hi there, do someone know if there is a limit of characters for server form title field?

[subtle cove]

Wanna know how to test it?

[sage sparrow]

I mean the limit (if there is any) on that formUI.title(titleMsg)
I m using this field as codes/instructions for my custom UI, so I want to know if there is any limit on that to avoid going over

[tight plume]

No but it will lag

[distant tulip]

i used 800 character long body text here https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1280301965271896124 and it didn't lag that much, unless hiding the text dose help

i do however remember it lagging in normal forms

[sage sparrow]

well it is fine, is a on demand UI, it will not keep updating so the lag is not a problem, but still I maybe was too concerned about because my length is still under ~200 characters, so I have space to work yet, thx

[crude flame]

hi, is it posible to apply knockback to a player if he is one block above an entity?

Is he who did that?

It is for sure him because he ran away now.. we can't get his .id now...

Villagers with composters?

entity.location.y+1 === player.location.y ? player.applyKnockback() : null;

[chilly fractal]

Yes the name of the event is weird, since it has "player" but idk ig they don't like an entityInteractWithBlock or smth

Or maybe the documents are just high on mc vodka potions

[jolly citrus]

i am making the grand switch to ts today

34 files to be fixed

i wish you could use a combination of ts and js imported files in script api

[crude flame]

But how do you implemented in Code?

i want to make flying jellyfish on which you get knocked If you are over it(Like a slime Block)

[chilly fractal]

Literally copy paste

Just edit the knockback values to your suiting

[autumn seal]

You say like a slimeblock are you trying to get the motion of the player when they fall on top of it and work off that?

[crude flame]

Yes

[crude flame]

I meant is there like an Event that only triggers If an entity ist near an entity. Or do i have ti Put it in a Loop which Runs every tick

[subtle cove]

entity.json component, yes
but not in script api

[crude flame]

But how exactly? Im new in entity creation

[autumn seal]

I think environment sensor has a distance_to_nearest_player filter

then you can have an event ran if a player is within certain distance ("event:player_near") for example

this is more of an #1067869022273667152 thing

but you could then just test for the event in the script by using world.afterEvents.dataDrivenEntityTrigger and filter for the event by using something along the lines of event.eventId === "event:player_near"

[crude flame]

Ok, i'll try it. Thank you

[autumn seal]

if it doesnt work lmk ill see if I was wrong about something

[crude flame]

I will try it in Like 3h.

      entity.dimension.spawnEntity('lightning_bolt', entity.location)

[warm mason]

Should work

[stark kestrel]

no errors, and nothing happens now

[warm mason]

Try temporarily removing the lightning spawn condition

[stark kestrel]

entity.dimension.spawnEntity('lightning_bolt', entity.location)

This one?

[stark kestrel]

Uh okay

[stark kestrel]

works without it

[warm mason]

This means your item does not have the "[lightn]" property or it is equal to zero

[stark kestrel]

its set to 100 tho

[stark kestrel]

it worked

works*

God damnit... Why a lot of people asking if I do a commission

[distant gulch]

🧠

good idea

[pseudo marlin]

Does anyone know how to make a crafting table script using entity? Simple and compact, please help me

[warm mason]

Scripts for a crafting table using an entity? What?

[pseudo marlin]

like it was a custom crafting table but using entity

[warm mason]

Why would you use an entity and not a crafting table component in blocks?

[pseudo marlin]

because it will have more slots than normal

[distant tulip]

he is asking for a custom recipe system using entity inventory and json ui

[warm mason]

Well, it definitely won’t work out compactly here.

Although the script itself..

[distant tulip]

he is not asking about the ui
just the detecting of the recipe

i guess you can just map the slots to an array and compare that to a recipe?

[pseudo marlin]

bro @distant tulip I sent you a message in private can you answer me

[distant tulip]

can't help you right now, sorry

[pseudo marlin]

Ok

[warm mason]

Use EntityInevntoryComponent to find out what items are currently in a “crafting table” and compare them with the ones you need, if everything matches, then delete them and issue a new item

[distant tulip]

@pseudo marlin how many slots do you have
and what it the output slot index

[pseudo marlin]

are on an 81 slot base with the exit slot being 82

[distant tulip]

💀

[pseudo marlin]

sorry it's a lot right?

[distant tulip]

yeah
anyway is it a grid or what?

[warm mason]

As I remember, you can’t have so many slots

[pseudo marlin]

the 81 slots are a grid while the output slot is a loose slot

[distant tulip]

you can, the way json ui displaying them is what limit them

[distant tulip]

9x9?

Yes @distant tulip

[pseudo marlin]

OK thanks

Just use playerSpawn

[elfin rose]

hmm yeah

didnt think of it

[warm mason]

and initialSpawn

[granite badger]

If you only need playerId (I prefer playerId over player.name cuz it doesn't change), get playerId from playerLeave event. (e.g. https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server.WorldAfterEvents.html#example-leavemessagejs)

Same with playerJoin (https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server.WorldAfterEvents.html#example-subscribejs-21)

[dim tusk]

world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe(({ player, initialSpawn }) => {
   if (initialSpawn) {}
});```

in playerLeave just use before events not after events

If... You're settling something otherwise just use after events

[distant tulip]

yeah, i thought we can

[simple arch]

Any suggestions for my simulated player menu?

[warm mason]

Write an AI that will perform the actions it is told to do.

[simple arch]

Like chatgpt? I give it's description and basically use the action that is in the class. Is that what you're talking about or just an AI mob for example can walk around the map.

Yes, you need to look at the documentation, and not invent your own methods

block.setType('dirt')

[elfin rose]

soo ```js
block.setType(block.location, block.type)

@pseudo marlin
replace

container.setItem(slot, new ItemStack(resultItem.split(" ")[0], Number(resultItem.split(" ")[1])));

with

container.setItem(81, new ItemStack(resultItem.split(" ")[0], Number(resultItem.split(" ")[1])));

[simple arch]

Well if I'm going to be using gpt I have to use a bedrock dedicated server.. which idk how I can start making it and even setting it up.

Guys what is target? I see it in entity class here example
world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe(player=>console.warn(player.target)) what is this do can you give example?

[warm mason]

When a zombie comes towards you and wants to attack you, you are its target.

[shell sigil]

Awhhhh thx I understand now

[dim tusk]

Umm, just a confirmation... I want to sort something into alphabetical order, but the words are translated is it possible to do that?

[slow walrus]

you're using translation keys?

[dim tusk]

yeah

[slow walrus]

then no

you can't get the translated version of the key in scripts afaik

[quick shoal]

Guys is there anyway to export the world in minecraft pe with ORE UI? I'm stuck for it

[dim tusk]

How many lines of strings do you guys think the body in the server form can handle before it lags your devices?

[subtle cove]

Can string char code sort em...
Also, if they're categorized in keys, it shouldn't be a problem

[elder heath]

Can you create a poster with custom text using js?

[dim tusk]

I'll ask for more information tomorrow morning and I mean tomorrow probably 2-3 hours from now because I'm sleepy asf

[coral ermine]

const response = form.show(player);
    system.runTimeout(() => {
       if (time > 0 && !response.canceled) {
         uiManager.closeAllForms(player);
         waitUntilOpens(player);
       } else if (time === 0) {
         uiManager.closeAllForms(player);
       }
   }, 20);

Why form keeps opening even I’m closing it?

?

[subtle cove]

do u decrease time?
If yes, ```js
else if (time <= 0)

Also

const response = form.show(player);
    system.runTimeout(() => {
       if (time > 0 && response.cancelationReason ===  "UserBusy") {
         uiManager.closeAllForms(player);
         waitUntilOpens(player);
       } else if (time <= 0) {
         uiManager.closeAllForms(player);
       }
   }, 20);

[coral ermine]

Now it’s not counting

I need to make it keep updating until player closes the form

but it keeps opening when player closes form

[fading sand]

Im trying json ui again, can anyone tell me why the ui form wont show?:

world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe(({
    player, initialSpawn

    if (initialSpawn) {
        console.warn("JOINNNNNNNN");

        const players = world.getPlayers();
        const modalForm = new ModalFormData().title("Example Modal Controls for §o§7ModalFormData§r");

        modalForm.textField("Input w/o default", "type text here");
        modalForm.textField("Input w/ default", "type text here", "this is default");

        modalForm.show(players[0]).then((formData) => {
            players[0].sendMessage(`Modal form results: ${JSON.stringify(formData.formValues, undefined, 2)}`);
        })

    }

hey uh how do i fetch player's tag?

[warm mason]

if (player.hasTag('tag'))

[shadow geyser]

ah thanks

[coral ermine]

anyone?

[fading sand]

Ohh thx

[warm mason]

It won't look very good

function updateUntilClose(player) {
  let menu = new ActionFormData()
  /*
    Form settings
  */
  let close = false
  menu.show(player).then(data => {
    if (data.canceled) close = true
  })

  system.runTimeout(() => {
    if (close) return
    UIManager.closeAllForms(player);
    updateUntilClose(player)
  },3)
}

[fading sand]

function myForm(player) {
  let menu = new ModalFormData().title("Example form")
  menu.textField("Input w/o default", "type text here");
  menu.show(player).then(data => {

    if (data.cancelationReason == "UserBusy") {
      
      return system.runTimeout(() => {
        myForm(player)
      }, 10)
    }
    //Code if the form was shown
    console.warn(formData.formValues);
  })
}```
For some reason the form value is invalid

[warm mason]

Does the debugger talk about any errors?

[fading sand]

Just that its undefined

[fading sand]

OH

Lmao thx

[jolly citrus]

world.beforeEvents.playerBreakBlock.subscribe((event) => {
    Object.entries(Enchantments).forEach(([key, value]) => {
        if (value.onEvent === event.constructor) {
            if (!(event.itemStack && ItemUtils.getItemType(event.itemStack).length > 0)) return;

            const Enchant = EnchantmentUtils.getEnchantments(event.itemStack).find(enchantment => enchantment.name === key);
            
            if (Enchant) {
                value.Callback(event, Enchant);
            }
        }
    })
})

can somebody explain to me why indexing anything on event after the if (value.onEvent === event.constructor) condition defines the type of event to be never ?

value.onEvent: typeof PlayerBreakBlockBeforeEvent | typeof ArmorIterationEvent | typeof CustomHitEvent

this condition worked just fine for me when i used jS

I understand that it's comparing an Event class to a function but ehh it's confusing me a bit, the condition works in terms of logic but it gives errors in ts

[sharp elbow]

Are you intending to see if value is an instance of event? Because you can use if(value.onEvent instanceof event)

[jolly citrus]

nvm

switched it to event.constructor and it works

thx

[fading sand]

How do i change an join message?

And how can i change an player name?

[jolly citrus]

Player.prototype.nameTag

[jolly citrus]

use lang files for that

[fading sand]

Whats prototype?

[fading sand]

Oh ok

[warm mason]

player.nameTag = "hhagdfkugdfksdgfhdf"

[jolly citrus]

a prototype object of class Player, i used it as an example

[fading sand]

Ahh

[jolly citrus]

if you get a player from an event it's an instance created from the Player class, these objects have a nameTag property

[fading sand]

Would that also change appearance of the leave message?

[jolly citrus]

no it wouldn't

[fading sand]

Ah i see

[fading sand]

Also not kill message

?

[jolly citrus]

no

from what I know only the player name displayed on the use of /w & 3d name tags in game

[fading sand]

Sheet

[jolly citrus]

the name property is what's used for kill messages and such but it's read-only

[jolly citrus]

use lang files like i said

[fading sand]

Oh rip

[fading sand]

I just need to change the name tho

[jolly citrus]

what do u wanna change in it

that's what you'd use it for

[fading sand]

Or can we replace player name with nameTaf

[jolly citrus]

no you cannot

the name and nameTag properties are two different things

[jolly citrus]

multiplayer.player.joined=§8[§a+§8] §a%s # is for example what I used

%s represents the name of the player

but afaik you cant rlly update that

[fading sand]

I want to make some box where you can set an player name so your xbox name stays hidden

[jolly citrus]

ask in #1067869318383157430 or #1067869590400544869 i think

[fading sand]

Rip

[jolly citrus]

well what u could do is

create a fake leave/join msg using scripts

and make the vanilla message display as empty

it will create a new line in chat yes but it's just a visual issue

[fading sand]

🤔alr

[jolly citrus]

i can make a helper class for you

im assuming you want to make a nicking system?

so players can disguise themselves better

a fake name

[fading sand]

O: thats be great ig, yea, like to stay anonymous

[jolly citrus]

TypeScript:

class NickUtils {
    getPlayerName (player: Player) {
        return player.getDynamicProperty("nick") ?? player.name;
    }

    updateNick (player: Player, nick: string) {
        player.setDynamicProperty("nick", nick);
    }

    resetNick (player: Player) {
        player.setDynamicProperty("nick", undefined);
    }
}

class NickUtils {
    getPlayerName (player) {
        return player.getDynamicProperty("nick") ?? player.name;
    }

    updateNick (player, nick) {
        player.setDynamicProperty("nick", nick);
    }

    resetNick (player) {
        player.setDynamicProperty("nick", undefined);
    }
}

wait

lemme add 1 mroe

use NickUtils.getPlayerName(player) anywhere to get their name; it always prioritizes retrieving their nickname over their actual username, bc name is always defined, the nick property is not

if you want to remove their nickname use NickUtils.resetNick(player)

if you want to update their nickname use NickUtils.updateNick(player, nick)

const nickCommand = "!nick %s";
const resetNickParameter = "reset";

world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe((event) => {
    const { sender, message } = event;
    if (message.startsWith(nickCommand.split(" ")[0])) {
        const nick = message.replace(/@/g,'').match(/"[^"]+"|\S+/g)?.[1].replace(/"/g,'');
        if (nick) {
            nick !== resetNickParameter ? NickUtils.updateNick(sender, nick) : NickUtils.resetNick(sender)
        }
    }
})

example usage

wait

[fading sand]

Ah, i used an map for storing it

world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe(({
    player, initialSpawn
}) => {
    if (initialSpawn) {
        myForm(player);

    }
});



let playerName = new Map();


function myForm(player) {
    let menu = new ModalFormData().title("Example form")
    menu.textField("Input w/o default",
        "type text here");
    menu.show(player).then(data => {

        if (data.cancelationReason == "UserBusy") {

            return system.runTimeout(() => {
                myForm(player)
            }, 10)
        }
        playerName.set(player, data.formValues);
        player.nameTag = data.formValues;
    })
}




world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe(data => {
    const senderEntity = data.sender;
    let senderName = playerName.get(senderEntity);
    const message = data.message;
    world.sendMessage(` ${senderName} ➭ ${message}`);
    data.cancel = true;
})```

[jolly citrus]

yes as long as this works then it's fine

[fading sand]

Works just for chat rn

[jolly citrus]

but do note that maps reset when a player leaves

if you want that then it's ok

[chilly fractal]

My guys why yall over complicating the task?

[jolly citrus]

i mean

when the scripts are reloaded**

[fading sand]

Missing is:
Join/leave message
Death and kill messafe

[fading sand]

Oh 😬😬

[jolly citrus]

so that's why I recommend a dynamic property

[fading sand]

Alr yea, property is better than

[jolly citrus]

how

[chilly fractal]

A whole utility for a nick?

And sending custom messages.

[jolly citrus]

How else would you want to disguise the name in chat messages

[jolly citrus]

that's not overcomplicating, it's preference

[chilly fractal]

But sure, yall do whatever yall wanna do.. I am busy rn so I can't really show you want I mean.

[chilly fractal]

*Sigh*

[jolly citrus]

i was initially going to make only a function for getting the player name but i found that there was no harm in adding two more ..

[chilly fractal]

Sure just you do you

[jolly citrus]

?

i think it's a good practice to use classes or whatever

[fading sand]

Ima be back in some hours prob

[jolly citrus]

maybe this isn't a good scale to represent the benefits of it

[chilly fractal]

Making A function or class for little actions and you aren't even gonna use them more than once or twice in the whole script isn't good practice

[jolly citrus]

.

[chilly fractal]

Yeah.

[jolly citrus]

but it still does keep it easier to maintain

[jolly citrus]

why

twice is already enough

to make a function for it

imo

once yeah maybe not

[chilly fractal]

Bruh

[jolly citrus]

and there might be other ways that he wants the players to be able to change their nickname

than just a chat command

[chilly fractal]

I'm sorry for starting this argument just go on bruh, you do you.

[jolly citrus]

no worries

[chilly fractal]

I like to avoid arguing when I don't have time to prove my point so yeah ig your "right". (No offense)

[jolly citrus]

[subtle cove]

-# hence where code...

[jolly citrus]

    static enchant (itemStack: ItemStack, enchantment: Enchantment): ItemStack {
        const properties = {
            enchantmentSlots: itemStack.getDynamicProperty("enchantmentSlots") as number,
            usedEnchantmentSlots: itemStack.getDynamicProperty("usedEnchantmentSlots") as number,
            enchantments: JSON.parse(itemStack.getDynamicProperty("enchantments") as string) as Enchantment[] | string,
            whitescrolled: itemStack.getDynamicProperty("whitescrolled") as boolean,
            nameTag: itemStack.getDynamicProperty("nameTag") as string
        }

        if (!(Array.isArray(properties.enchantments))) return itemStack;

        if (properties.usedEnchantmentSlots >= properties.enchantmentSlots) return itemStack;

        const enchantmentExists = properties.enchantments.find(_enchantment => _enchantment.name === enchantment.name)

        if (enchantmentExists) {
            enchantmentExists.level = Math.min(Math.max(enchantmentExists.level+(enchantment.level-(enchantmentExists.level-1)), enchantment.level),(this.getEnchantment(enchantment.name) as typeof Enchantments[keyof typeof Enchantments]).MaxLevel)
        } else {
            properties.enchantments.push({
                name: enchantment.name,
                level: enchantment.level
            })
        }

        properties.usedEnchantmentSlots = (properties.enchantments).length

        properties.enchantments = JSON.stringify(properties.enchantments) as string;

        for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(properties)) {
            itemStack.setDynamicProperty(key, value);
        }

        const updatedItem = ItemUtils.updateLore(itemStack)
        if (updatedItem instanceof ItemStack) {
            return updatedItem;
        }

        return itemStack;
    }

i expected using as string statement when updating the value of properties.enchantments to force the type to now be string and not Enchantment[] | string, so now I get a type error here:

        /* for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(properties)) { */
            itemStack.setDynamicProperty(key, >> value <<);
        /* } */

how do i fix this

i tried a typeof type guard for it before I update dynamic properties but it doesn't change anything

[proud saddle]

if i return function with using system.run it garant what function will be completed in no more than a tick?

[warm mason]

It will always slow down the game

[dim tusk]

Hmm...

[vast comet]

long string in ui freeze the client for a bit

[distant tulip]

my multi-tab server form uses 800 character long string and it still work normal

[wheat condor]

Maybe you just got a good pc

[warm mason]

800 is not much

[distant tulip]

it is a potato

[wheat condor]

Well some people define a 4060 as a potato

[distant tulip]

nah , i am not displaying it all at once
1000 do lag normal forms a bit

[thorn flicker]

what

Long ago I asked in BuildAPc discord group and they said that a 3060 was trash, and they also recommended me a 400€ keyboard satin that it was the minumum

[thorn flicker]

hm

[thorn flicker]

you said 4060

[wheat condor]

Was an example becouse now it the latest, when I was buying my pc I asked for 3060

[warm mason]

They're probably just from the future, where cookies cost $1000

6000 symbols well well

How do you manage to undersand this

[thorn flicker]

this is very script api related fellows

[wheat condor]

Yeah

[dim tusk]

Yes...

This is starting to be like #art-and-modeling

Well if you want to talk about script api why don’t you take a look at this #1320052540582264912 message

I need that oreUi

[warm mason]

[dim tusk]

And if I lose my mind here, I will literally redo the whole breed system in scripts

[thorn flicker]

then do it

[dim tusk]

I need.... Love :(

[autumn seal]

Is it denial to refuse to learn json ui until oreui comes out?

[dim tusk]

I didn't lose my mind so, I ain't doing it yet

[valid ice]

Nah, that's just being smart 😛

[autumn seal]

It'll pay off in 5 or so years

[distant tulip]

console.log("he hurt my feelings") //this is script related

[wheat condor]

JSON ui is just trash, hard to control, ancient, inefficient, complex, hard to read

[thorn flicker]

are you sure

[dim tusk]

erm 🤓 based on my learnings of json ui for the past 3-4 years it's not hard to resd

Can jigsaws be scripted

[thorn flicker]

minecraft 360 graphics

[dusky pulsar]

sometimes these things can overlap if you start using turns and stuff for the path

and I'm allergic to structures overlapping 😷

[wheat condor]

PS3 2015 ahh graphics

I used to play on that thing

[wheat condor]

That’s really cool (I hate structures)

Did you know 1981 was the year of raaaahhhhhhhhhh 👏👏

[distant tulip]

structures would be a game changer if we could exclude/include entities using entity filter

[thorn flicker]

you should be a comedian

[distant tulip]

he can't if he is the joke

[wheat condor]

You can

[distant tulip]

uhm...no?

[autumn seal]

you can?

[distant tulip]

in structures?

[wheat condor]

Yes there is the options

[distant tulip]

yeah i am out of here
and they already do btw... who ever tf was that

[wheat condor]

Just use the command

[autumn seal]

That was carchi lol

[wheat condor]

! true (script api related)

[warm mason]

!

[dusky pulsar]

don't java villages have some type of anti collision logic with their jigsaws when generating

[autumn seal]

the audit logs would reflect differently

[dusky pulsar]

-# If I get a good idea of what that is I could probably script it

[distant tulip]

i am talking about something like EntityQueryOptions

[wheat condor]

I hope jigsaw will be easy to set up

[wary edge]

Where scripting?

[wheat condor]

System.out.println(“here”);

[dusky pulsar]

I thought it was easy

[warm mason]

Why do you need jigsaw when there are scripts? :)

[dusky pulsar]

village generator worked up until I added turns on the path then they started going in on themselves

[dusky pulsar]

I mean..

[wheat condor]

It’s the most complex thing in the world, they don’t have auto completions they have old ui and code lines like command blocks that don’t have auto completions

[dusky pulsar]

testing it out was fun

[dusky pulsar]

"is the scripting in the room with us right now?" -smokeystack

[vast comet]

scripting is the friend we made along the way

[wheat condor]

That is what a jigsaw looks like

[dusky pulsar]

Yes, I used it for that village screenshot

[wary edge]

Please move elsewhere.

[dusky pulsar]

I'm here for a reason

[autumn seal]

what do you guys think would be the best way to add a custom effect/potion effect

I don't imagine there's any support for that so would giving the entity a tag and running something every tick be one way to go?

[wary edge]

Yeah.

[autumn seal]

that's unfortunate

[drowsy scaffold]

how do I make a simluated player?

[abstract cave]

Is there a player hit entity event?

[valid ice]

There's entity hit entity, and you can check if it's a player

[abstract cave]

damn, isnt that stressful
cant we just have one for the player directly

[valid ice]

Is a player not an entity?

They likely won't add a separate event solely for player, as the entity one does the job just fine and is a more general use case.

[abstract cave]

🫤

[warm mason]

What's the problem with just writing one if

[abstract cave]

i have, im just asking if theres a direct method of doing it

[valid ice]

There sure ain't

[jolly citrus]

can the gravity of knockback to players be modified

[thorn flicker]

...

an if statement is stressful?

[dusky pulsar]

don't think about it your brain will melt

[thorn flicker]

theirs or mine?

[dusky pulsar]

✅ all of the above

[abstract cave]

What

[thorn flicker]

has to be a troll.

[abstract cave]

is it bad for me to find other and easier ways to do something

😠

[dusky pulsar]

It doesn't get any easier than a single if statement 😭

[thorn flicker]

if you think an if statement isn't easy...

[autumn seal]

the gravity?

[jolly citrus]

yes

or like

inertia

more of

i feel like the player falls back down too fast, it's hard to hit anybody high up in the air

trying to make custom knockback

[autumn seal]

Im not sure how to go about that

maybe use entity hit entity event, wait a second or less, grab player velocity and multiply it and apply to knockback ?

you can also likely just get direction between you and hit entity, and apply a flat amount of knockback in a certain direction

[quick shoal]

U shouldn't player[0] just player

[thorn flicker]

they need to first create a for of loop to do that (or use forEach)

Halo

what'd you guys think better to sue to add a comma in numbers like every 3 digit

[thorn flicker]

good game

[dim tusk]

Use toLocaleString() or custom function

[fading sand]

Yee, its already changed

[jolly citrus]

yeah i've done that but i want to modify the falling speed

the vanilla kb speed is too quick

[chilly fractal]

.addEffect('slow_falling') r/wow

No no

It's too inefficient

[jolly citrus]

but that also affects jumping and anything else that involves falling + it doesn't make a difference in the upwards velocity only downwards

[chilly fractal]

.applyKnockback(); // test and find out the perfect knockback value for applying knockback from the bottom

[quick shoal]

Ar U making custom knockback

[jolly citrus]

yes

the kb itself works but the values just are not good for actual pvp

[quick shoal]

Can U give me if U done it

[jolly citrus]

maybe idk

[quick shoal]

Im alr looking for it for a long time

[jolly citrus]

there's more to my pvp system than just the knockback itself

[jolly citrus]

just code it urself

[quick shoal]

I can't make It perfectly

[jolly citrus]

well neither can I and that's why I'm here asking for help with it

[quick shoal]

I just need a low knockback and high falling

[jolly citrus]

high falling as in being able to combo people without them constantly being on the ground

[quick shoal]

I alr tried to do it

[jolly citrus]

?

[quick shoal]

But the effect is not good

[jolly citrus]

i have the same problem

its not fun to pvp with its awful even vanilla kb is better

[quick shoal]

Yea I need it can do combo at player

[jolly citrus]

with the double hits

[chilly fractal]

.getVelocity();
// there is a post somewhere in this server that eventually leads to converting that value to kb
.applyKnockback();
// edit the kb to your liking :)

[autumn seal]

I said this

[jolly citrus]

but this won't affect the speed ? i don't understand

[quick shoal]

This is what I do

[chilly fractal]

Nope it won't

[quick shoal]

Can U give a example

[jolly citrus]

that's what my original problem was

[chilly fractal]

Unless you mean the attacking speed

[jolly citrus]

noo i mean the speed that they fall and go up at

[chilly fractal]

It literally dismantles them.

[jolly citrus]

the speed that the knockback takes effect at

[autumn seal]

Making the player fall slower is likely going to require running a teleport every tick or giving them slow falling

[quick shoal]

He means get the speed and convert to knockback

[jolly citrus]

but knockback is always done at a fixed speed no ?

[autumn seal]

Increasing the height they go up is very easy and is a parameter of knockback as is

[jolly citrus]

i was wondering if there's a way to modify that

[chilly fractal]

Sigh, let me find the post for ya rq

[quick shoal]

Who can help me make the code more good

I think I already have a nice value for applyknockback but the code is not perfect

[jolly citrus]

it seems fine to me

[quick shoal]

U tested my code?

[jolly citrus]

no i didn't test it

am i not supposed to?

You can change it through component groups

[random flint]

I want to change it dynamically using scripts

[ruby haven]

Oh

[dim tusk]

Is it a custom entity? Did you try to do it on withers?

I just tried both and failed. It only updates the bossbar name only when using nametag (the item).

[granite cape]

pls i need help

[round bone]

as far as it's okay for 10-15 players it's good

[turbid delta]

I'm using my own addon for a network 😅

[round bone]

oh, then this might be a small issue if you have more than 30 players

[turbid delta]

Anyone know if its a good idea to run 10000+ world.structureManager.load() at once to replace setType() 💀 or fillBlocks()

[round bone]

you can't split it in time a bit?

[turbid delta]

Probably could just thinking about making a simple world edit and since setType doesn't work in unloaded chunks it'd be nice to work at a larger scale which structures provide

I could definitely split it up

block.setPermutation('perm','value')
whats the correct syntax???

[warm mason]

import { BlockPermutation } from '@minecraft/server'

}))

[wheat condor]

if (itemStack?.typeId !== 'worldedit:debugstick') return;
    const states = block.permutation.getAllStates()
    const kv = []
    Object.entries(states).forEach(([key, value]) => {
        kv.push([key + ':' + value])
    });
    new ActionbarMenu()
        .title('BlockStates')
        .pattern(kv)
        .show(player).then(({ slot, line }) => {

            const result = kv[line][slot].split(':')
            const perm = BlockPermutation.resolve(block.type, { result[0]: parseInt(result[1]) + 1 });

            block.setPermutationperm)
        })

im trying to create a debug stick

is that right?

[warm mason]

BlockPermutation.resolve(block.type, { [result[0]]: parseInt(result[1])+1 });

[wheat condor]

world.afterEvents.itemUseOn.subscribe(({ source: player, itemStack, block }) => {
    if (itemStack?.typeId !== 'worldedit:debugstick') return;
    const states = block.permutation.getAllStates()
    const kv = []
    Object.entries(states).forEach(([key, value]) => {
        kv.push([key + ':' + value])
    });
    new ActionbarMenu()
        .title('BlockStates')
        .pattern(kv)
        .show(player).then(({ slot, line }) => {
            const result = kv[line][slot].split(':')
            console.log(result[0])
            const permId = result[0]
            // the next line does throw
            const perm = BlockPermutation.resolve(block.type, { [permId]: true });

            block.setPermutation(perm)
        })
})

permId isnt working why?

found out that arg[0] is block type not permId so the error was that i needed to use typeId instead of type

[cold grove]

isnt that what the log already says?

[wheat condor]

yes but i was thinking the arg[0] was the permId

[grim raft]

it is not reading the ${slot}

system.runInterval(() => {

Why can’t I place the soul torch ANYWHERE?

[thorn flicker]

minecraft:bedrock?

[patent tapir]

That’s so dumb. I used block.typeId === “minecraft:bedrock” before and it didnt work

[thorn flicker]

well wait, thats what the code does though, to cancel...

if its not bedrock, itll cancel

[patent tapir]

yes

i only want it placed on bedrock

[thorn flicker]

are you are asking why you cant place it anywhere...

[patent tapir]

i mean. Not even on bedrock

[thorn flicker]

weird wording.

[patent tapir]

I’ll try adding the namespace and I’ll be damned if somehow that works

Still doesn’t work

Torch does not get placed and no message is sent

Although i did forget to add a system.run so I’ll do that but still

[thorn flicker]

your code is asking if the block is soul torch but not bedrock

[patent tapir]

Wait really

Ohmg

[thorn flicker]

you cannot check what its being placed on

[patent tapir]

I mixed up the variables :(

[patent tapir]

What what

[thorn flicker]

use beforeEvents interact with block

[patent tapir]

Then what’s with “blockpermutationbeingplacedon”

[thorn flicker]

then cancel that

[thorn flicker]

its "permutationBeingPlaced"

not "permutationBeingPlacedOn"

Is it a good idea to have an instance for each player to run parallel tasks instead of just doing a for loop? This is an example of one

export class PlayerInstance {

  private static players: PlayerInstance[] = [];

  private readonly entity: Player;
  private readonly routine: number;

  constructor(entity: Player) {
    this.entity = entity;
    this.routine = system.runInterval(() => this.update(), 1);
  }

  private update(): void {
    this.entity.onScreenDisplay.setActionBar(`§6Sneaking: §c${this.entity.isSneaking}§6 | §eSwimming: §c${this.entity.isSwimming}§6`);
  }

  public close(): void {
    system.clearRun(this.routine);
  }

  public static getPlayer(entity: Player): PlayerInstance | undefined {
    return this.players.find(player => player.entity === entity);
  }

  public static getPlayers(): PlayerInstance[] {
    return this.players;
  }

}

I think yes,because then you got a better control for each player

[warm mason]

You cannot compare objects. Compare their IDs

[nimble schooner]

What did they change to this? 😭

let component = itemFormatted.getComponent("minecraft:enchantable");
            component.addEnchantment({ type: new EnchantmentType(`${enchant.type}`), level: enchant.level })```

Apparently itemStack.getComponent(„minecraft:enchantable“) returns undefined

[warm mason]

why?

[amber granite]

Hillo

[nimble schooner]

It sets that to „unbreaking“ for example

[warm mason]

Yeah, but why put that on a string instead of just writing enchant.type

[nimble schooner]

Idk

Wrote that one year ago

[sterile epoch]

does the player leave before event work now?

[hushed ravine]

Great!! Thank you so much!!

[hushed ravine]

Yeah, exactly

[quick shoal]

Why it doesn't work

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

[hushed ravine]

  private update(): void {
    if (world.getPlayers({ name: this.name }).length === 0) {
      this.close();
      return;
    }

    this.entity.onScreenDisplay.setActionBar(`§6Sneaking: §c${this.entity.isSneaking}§6 | §eSwimming: §c${this.entity.isSwimming}§6`);
  }

  public close(): void {
    system.clearRun(this.routine);
    const index = PlayerInstance.players.indexOf(this);
    if (index !== -1) {
      PlayerInstance.players.splice(index, 1);
    }
  }

Is there any other way that I can check if the player left the server? I feel like the method I used might use more resources

[warm mason]

if (player.isValid())

How did I not know about this

[warm mason]

Why not just use a loop in system.runInterval that loops through all players

[hushed ravine]

I fear it might be a cost on performance, and when you want to have 100 players on a single server, every bit of optimization is important

So I'm trying to run things in parallel instead

[granite badger]

Minecraft itself can’t even handle 100 players… right

[warm mason]

Only if your host is not a quantum computer

[hushed ravine]

I didn't say it can't, it's just difficult

Especially with BDS

[sterile epoch]

this isnt working:

world.beforeEvents.playerLeave.subscribe(({player}) => {
    const item = player.getComponent("inventory")?.container?.getItem(player.selectedSlotIndex);
    system.run(() => {
    player.dimension.spawnItem(item, {
        x: player.location.x,
        y: player.location.y,
        z: player.location.z + 5
    })
})
})

its not spawning the item

[wary edge]

How are you testing it? Singleplayer?

[sterile epoch]

yes

does it only work on non-host players?

bruh

I just realised I made a spelling mistake

[warm mason]

How will the code be executed if there is no host?

[sterile epoch]

it was still executing tho

I forgot to use system and it said "does not have privileges" error, so that means it does run

[warm mason]

Yes, because this is before player has left, and after that if you use system.run nothing will work. Because there is no host

[sterile epoch]

oh
