Script API General

[inland merlin]

@valid ice

honestly even tho it sorta works having custom items and having to register them with the vanilla item typeIds in the files and them id's annoying..

im gonna make a system that actually lets you target their icon directly outside of ids just for custom items...

we use the blocks folder instead as it doesn't conflict with the vanilla file ids

and then just place all the icons of the items there... under textures/blocks/icons/path.png..

honestly the best method and not having to deal with annoying compatibility.

so maybe thats something to look into i think for the future

*custom item icons only for the chestformdata

so thats my suggested work around (to make compatibiltiy for custom items easier)

[valid ice]

wdym by using the blocks folder

Like placing all textures (including items) under the blocks folder?

[inland merlin]

yes it seems to make it better for my custom items as it doesn't conflict with id's>>>

im using custom items from the blocks folders directly and it is so much better. hard to explain but it doesn't mess up crap for me

it still can register id's, so we still need to do the shift

like how many custom items we have,, we just take that count and shift it over...

for vanilla to work

but

for custom items its much easier to just dynamically grab their own icon from a custom folder

i guess it doesn't have to be blocks folder for texture side

[celest abyss]

How to detect when a player steps on a block

[wary edge]

Custom or vanilla?

[celest abyss]

Custom

[valid ice]

Do ya have a screenshot of what you mean

[inland merlin]

@valid ice

i just do the vanilla shift, and then just source my own icons for my custom items instead of trying to add the id's

the block icons are manually sourced

[wary edge]

Use custom components, onStepOn.

[inland merlin]

the circled is vanilla

so its less work honestly and better for me

so idk if it makes sense at all for yah

the block icons are not registered at all

in the typeId

js file

so those still work even if the shift gets messed up for vanilla items

since its not part of the shift of ids

anyways,, ill get a better explaination later and post it to you

its hard to explain without confusing people... much easier then trying to do the id's for custom items

be back in a few days lmao with that basic info

[coral trail]

Thank you very much. I appreciate your help.

[deep yew]

Does anyone else have issues with certain areas loading in when teleporting using script api? My spawn has a ticking area, but takes ~15-30 seconds to load in being teleported from about 10k blocks away.

[valid ice]

@inland merlin I just pushed a commit to the git to make adding custom stuff easier. Please let me know if it's easy to use! 😛

[inland merlin]

Ok!

[inland merlin]

It looks so much easier to just add an icon for the item then tryn to do all that I'd stuff.

I've made a registration config in my own spawners addon so players can add it to the forms in game.

So thanks for adding that in

I'll add another config to move/shift the items for vanilla textures as well

In game

[untold magnet]

i know it is possible but,
how can i get the mob variant? ( for vanilla mobs )

like:
Cold Frog
Temperature Frog
Warm Frog

each one of them will have different drops, so how can i detect the mob variants via scripts?

[wary edge]

Get the variant component?

[untold magnet]

yes ig

[untold magnet]

render controllers - frog
"Array.skins": [ "Texture.temperate", "Texture.cold", "Texture.warm" ]

detecting those things,

[wary edge]

Why are you looking at the render controller?

[untold magnet]

idk im just trying to get the mob variant via scripts,

[wary edge]

Look at the BP then.

[distant tulip]

entity.getComponent('variant')?.value

[untold magnet]

thanks dude,

[untold magnet]

like:
const variant = entity.getComponent('variant'); if (frog) { if (variant?.value = 1) world.sendMessage('Cold Frog!') } ?

[warm mason]

variant.value is number

[wary edge]

It would be wise to read the docs and the frog BP Json.

[warm mason]

Look at the json code of the frog and find out which variation has which number

[untold magnet]

alright.

[distant tulip]

0 "temperate"
1 "cold"
2 "warm"

[untold magnet]

yah i saw it

[fallow rivet]

Can I test if there is a stone between the player's position ~1 ~1 ~1 ~-1 ~-1 ~-1

So 3x3

[deep yew]

function isStoneNearby(player) {
    const overworld = world.getDimension("overworld");
    const playerLocation = player.location;

    // Define the bounding box around the player
    const min = new Vector3(playerLocation.x - 1, playerLocation.y - 1, playerLocation.z - 1);
    const max = new Vector3(playerLocation.x + 1, playerLocation.y + 1, playerLocation.z + 1);

    // Iterate through the bounding box
    for (let x = min.x; x <= max.x; x++) {
        for (let y = min.y; y <= max.y; y++) {
            for (let z = min.z; z <= max.z; z++) {
                const block = overworld.getBlock(new Vector3(x, y, z));
                if (block && block.typeId === "minecraft:stone") {
                    return true; // Found a stone block
                }
            }
        }
    }
    return false; // No stone found
}

// Usage
system.run(() => {
    const player = Array.from(world.getPlayers())[0];
    const hasStone = isStoneNearby(player);
    if (hasStone) {
        player.sendMessage("§aStone block detected nearby!");
    } else {
        player.sendMessage("§cNo stone block detected nearby.");
    }
});

Something like this

[distant tulip]

@fallow rivet you are using beta api?

[fallow rivet]

No

1.15

[distant tulip]

give me a sec

[distant tulip]

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

    const locations = volume.getBlockLocationIterator()
    for (const location of locations) {
        if(dimension.getBlock(location).typeId === id) return true
    }
    return false

        } else {
            player.sendMessage("there is no stone around you")
        }
    }
},10)

not tested

[fallow rivet]

const playerX = Math.floor(player.location.x);
const playerY = Math.floor(player.location.y);
const playerZ = Math.floor(player.location.z);
for (let x = -1; x <= 1; x++) {
for (let y = -1; y <= 1; y++) {
for (let z = -1; z <= 1; z++) {
const block = player.dimension.getBlock({ x: playerX + x, y: playerY + y, z: playerZ + z })?.typeId;
if (block == "minecraft:portal" || block == "minecraft:end_portal") {
if (player.hasTag("hasEntity")) {
entitydatastore(player, lastbackpackversion)
}
continue
}}}}

I found a solution like this

[distant tulip]

test it out

my code is for general use

[valid ice]

Would recommend checking the hasTag before the triple loop- will cut down on complexity a lot

Aka it won’t run the loop every single time

[fallow rivet]

Working

[distant tulip]

all the useful stuff are beta, getBlocks and containBlock

[distant tulip]

cool, you can add your stuff t it

[fast lark]

It will be public?

[chilly fractal]

Yo bois

[distant tulip]

i don't know 🤡

[chilly fractal]

Can i use external npm packages within behavior packs?

[fast lark]

Nice

[chilly fractal]

Specifically for some stuff like image processing npms.

[fast lark]

Its possible to make an ip ban on servers

?

[chilly fractal]

Probably not

Unless you have access to the whole server

And it's underlying stuff

Like the whole processor

So you can intercept join events and get their ip.

[fast lark]

Mmh okay

[chilly fractal]

But the best option is per world id

Unique id

It doesn't change even if you change your gamertag

[distant tulip]

nope
but if you are working with server net, you could setup a back end for the said package
remember, the api is built in top of quick js

[chilly fractal]

I am working with server net

The thing is

I am already using my api end point too much

And i might run into rate limits very soon

So yeah idk

[chilly fractal]

player.id btw

[fast lark]

Im not doing that for the people who change gamer tag but the pp who create new accounts to evade the ban

[chilly fractal]

Ya well there is no way to do that

Idk read about packets tho

[distant tulip]

unless quick js support the package there is not other option

[chilly fractal]

Might have something useful

[fast lark]

Idk in a server where i got banned even if I change account they still ban me for ban evading

[fast lark]

Okay

[chilly fractal]

Idk, an addon i have downloaded uses it fine but the thing is they use @minecraft/data not like external packages

[chilly fractal]

Yeah cuz they have access to the underlying system. If you do have access to that then you can get the ip from the header on requests, specifically, the 'x-real-ip' header.

When a user connects to the server you check their ip from that

[distant tulip]

never heard of that tbh

[chilly fractal]

Basically just some simple http stuff but you gotta have full backend access

[chilly fractal]

The module for all the names of enchants and stuff

Oh boy i am tired, i need to sleep now

I have been working on alot

I have like 27 days to finish

Kinda not cool

From my end

I should've increased the deadline

But it is what it is, and i can't let time kill me. I must kill it first.

[distant tulip]

welp that just an info package
as long as the package uses only quck js stuff it should work when bundled with the addon

[distant tulip]

i had a deadline once increased by 15 day 😅

[chilly fractal]

I don't promise stuff i don't deliver

And i will never ever break that legacy.

Family tradition

[chilly fractal]

Never mind lol, that is all types and stuff for vsc...

It basically is completely useless on run

[valid ice]

Minecraft/data is just an external package that you add to your addon

It doesn’t contain much code, just types- strings, numbers, names, etc

[chilly fractal]

Anyway all i need is some alternative to the client side canvas

Or some way to edit an image

[valid ice]

Hah good luck 😢

[distant tulip]

nah it was more like:
here is 15 thing (mostly entities and items with complex stuff) we need you to add, we know that this is your first project with us and we know that you don't know how to do some stuff, here is the models and textures and animations, deal with all that in 15 day

[chilly fractal]

Nah that's crazy

[distant tulip]

is that even possible

[chilly fractal]

It is possible using a package

But

It's kinda, a "package".

And it's designed for server side

But it could work

If all hope is lost i could implement aggressive caching...

With server side

[valid ice]

Real question is why you need to edit images in real time inside mc anyways

[chilly fractal]

Avatar grabber

[distant tulip]

i mean yeah, but what are you editing? we can't import the pic to mc

[chilly fractal]

For my discord relay

I have got the image url

But i just simply get a texture

Not a head

[valid ice]

You may be able to use some funky json ui like the pause screen does

You want a player head..?

[chilly fractal]

Nah

I wanna get the head of their avatar and embed it within discord

Kind with the message

I already got everything in place

I just can't edit the image

That's all that's holding me back

[distant tulip]

why do you need to edit it?

[chilly fractal]

But i might explore a little more and come up with a better solution

[chilly fractal]

Becuz moyang gives me a texture, not a head, this ain't third party.

I gtg sleep rn tho so ya cya soon... its kinda late... 2am typa late

[distant tulip]

alr, gn

wait

wrong server

[coral trail]

Quick qestion. If my add on no longer requires Beta APIs to be toggled on, will that mean I don't have to make an update to change the API version every time the game updates?

[wary edge]

Yeah.

That's the goal anyways.

There might be a few function renames every once in a while.

[coral trail]

That's fantastic. Thank you for letting me know.

[chrome flint]

what's with the encircled podzol?

[inland merlin]

Just was showing where custom stuff was starting, but I was wrong in that photo, it starts like 10 after

The end of the vanilla

[chrome flint]

yeah those items changes randomly for some reason, its a burden to list those ones in item IDs everytime

[inland merlin]

Yeah that's why I'm giving up on adding custom ids to that list. And doing an in game registration system to add the custom item (link to icon directly)

The id system is a pain

Im just gonna auto vanilla, and manually do the custom icons

[chrome flint]

yeah but that's impossible at the moment, i wish someone could make a way for that

[pale terrace]

How can I get all the possible values ​​of a block's state?

[inland merlin]

agreed

[dim tusk]

You can get all states of your block with block.permutation.getAllStates() this returns the id and the value of the blocks states not the max values remember that, then grab all IDs of the states from there and use BlockStates.getAll() map the id and validValues

[pale terrace]

thank you!

[dim tusk]

or you can just use .get('<state name>')

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

const state = block.permutation.getAllStates();

const allValues = {};

Object.keys(state).forEach((stateName) => {
    const validValues = BlockStates.get(stateName).validValues;
    allValues[stateName] = validValues;
});```

@pale terrace

[pale terrace]

woaaa thank you!!

[deep yew]

some people use dedicated servers or hosted servers with bots that intercept your join event. The type that send messages in/through discord and stuff saying who joined, who typed in chat, etc. Those bots, I think can detect IP; if not, they can at least run code that checks for similar gamertags

[cold grove]

probably not bds

[chilly fractal]

Nah that stuff has nothing to do with ips, ip ban means you have access to the server itself. Like.. the actual server. Low level part of the server. Not the high level stuff like packet events, normal events, system events, other stuff. Minecraft doesn't provide access to ips nor any other sensitive data from high level apis Becuz you could then turn any world into an ip grabber.

Yeah ima try to use the image module and give it a try

[wheat condor]

How do I check if a score already exists?

Like .getScore() but that doesn’t throw errors like an hasScore()

[dim tusk]

Check if it's in participants

then return otherwise do what you want.

[slow walrus]

getObjective, if undefined it doesn't exist

oh

[distant tulip]

hasParticipant

[subtle cove]

objective.getScores().find(o => o.score === score)

[chilly fractal]

const score = obj.hasParticipant(ent) ? obj.getScore(ent) : 0;

[warm mason]

const score = obj.getScore(ent) || 0

[chilly fractal]

It can throw an error

[warm mason]

What? Why? It will return the value or if there is no value then undefined

[chilly fractal]

There is an error my fam

I don't remember its message but it appears if you dont have any scores

Either way, why not be extra sure and safe

It's not like you are using a try catch block.

[dim tusk]

a lot of solutions lol,

[noble bolt]

if get objective is undefined it will return 0, thats what the code is saying

[dim tusk]

but I mostly use this way lol

-# mb ping

[chilly fractal]

Nope

[warm mason]

It's a very idiotic decision to return an error in this case, especially when the documentation says "score || undefined"

[lone thistle]

He's right

It's actually annoying

Even if you return 0 or || 0 an error will still be thrown

[static oyster]

Anyone know how to change the player tag above the head? Like changing 'Yulu' to '[AFK] Yulu'?

[lone thistle]

player.nameTag = [AFK] ${player.name}

[unique acorn]

player.nameTag = "[AFK] Yulu"

[static oyster]

Thanks.

[static oyster]

Thanks.

[lone thistle]

Here it is

TypeError: Native variant type conversion failed.     at <anonymous> (BatemanAPI/scores.js:36)

The code is supposed to add score to a player but they have no score at all and although I am returning 0 it's still throwing that error ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[noble bolt]

because you cant add score on 0

[lone thistle]

The point is the final value would be the amount specified so 0 + 1 should be 1 but it's not as it's not even 0 in the first place

[chilly fractal]

Nope

[lone thistle]

That's the error

What were you getting?

[chilly fractal]

That's a you problem

A little score related error i just dont remember it

[lone thistle]

I've actually dealt with it I'm just demonstrating the error by running this code

[remote oyster]

What does it do if you use ?? versus || because they behave differently.

The OR operator uses the right value if left is falsy, while the nullish coalescing operator uses the right value if left is null or undefined.

[dim tusk]

i was about to say that 😭

[remote oyster]

Yea, I'm just curious how it would handle the example Serty shared above.

[lone thistle]

Ran it and it just throws this

[chilly fractal]

What's your code

Me personally, this my old scoreboard class, i switched to dynamic properties as scoreboard but here it is:

class Scoreboard {
  constructor(objectiveID) {
    this.objectiveID = objectiveID;
    return world.scoreboard.getObjective(this.objectiveID) ?? world.scoreboard.addObjective(this.objectiveID);
  }
  doOperation(operation) {
    const objective = world.scoreboard.getObjective(this.objectiveID) ?? world.scoreboard.addObjective(this.scoreboardID);
    return operation(objective);
  }
  
  getScore(ent) {
    return this.doOperation(obj => obj.hasParticipant(ent) ? obj.getScore(ent) : 0);
  }
  addScore(ent, score) {
    return this.doOperation(obj => obj.addScore(ent, score));
  }
  removeScore(ent, score) {
    return this.doOperation(obj => obj.addScore(ent, -score));
  }
  setScore(ent, score) {
    this.doOperation(obj => obj.setScore(ent, score));
    return score;
  }
}

(Feel free to use it)

[dim tusk]

what's the input you put out in the doOperations() kinda curious ngl

since there's the swtscore add score BLA BLA

[chilly fractal]

Basically doOperation initializes the objective then runs the function

Basically you give it a function, it initializes the scoreboard if it doesn't exist, and runs the operation using the objective, and returns the value minecraft would return for you.

You doing "doOperation(obj => /*function*/)" basically is the function, and it takes the initialized objective as the param.

[dim tusk]

Ahhh, I get it lol. I didn't fully read the script oof

[chilly fractal]

No worries

[dim tusk]

That's why I got confused, since you're doing a constructor already

[chilly fractal]

Yeah lol, i got confused when i thought of this idea at first but then it became easier to understand and i just adopted it instead of Initializing it every single time manually

[scarlet sable]

yo rpg addon?

[wicked girder]

does anyone happen to know the uses of the ground_sign_direction and attached_bit hanging sign states

the ground_sign_direction is on normal signs but why hanging??

[wary edge]

Because it tells which rotation if I recall.

[distant tulip]

hmm

[dim tusk]

wtf is the blocked content there? Lol

[distant tulip]

spam?

[dim tusk]

What's the spam there?

[distant tulip]

repeated words i guess

[wicked girder]

but hanging signs arent diagonal, and they use the facing_direction state. And they also use the hanging state for if its on a wall or the ceiling.

[wary edge]

What do you mean? Hanging signs can be diagonal.

[wicked girder]

i couldnt get them to be?

nvm i didnt know that its different on fences

[dim tusk]

guys quick question since I'm not sure if I can lol
-# haven't tested on my phone yet.

world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe(async ({ player, initialSpawn }) => {
  const warning = await forceShow(player, new ActionFormData().title('warning').button(''));
});

async function forceShow(player, form, timeout = Infinity) {
    const startTick = system.currentTick;

    while ((system.currentTick - startTick) < timeout) {
        const response = await form.show(player);
        if (response.cancelationReason !== 'UserBusy') return response;
    }
}```

is there a way to check if the form is opened??

If ever you're gonna say use selection canceled no I don't think you can. Because iirc, selection only returns undefined or a value if you clicked a button in ActionFormData while the canceled will only be false when you clicked any buttons

[distant tulip]

response.cancelationReason

"UserBusy" if it didn't open

[dim tusk]

it doesn't return anything when the form is opened, only when closed or busy.
-# I just tried it

[remote oyster]

It not returning anything is how you can confirm its open because if it were not open it would mean they were busy.

[dim tusk]

I did something wrong here tho I'm not sure .

world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe(async ({ player, initialSpawn }) => {
   const warning = await forceShow(player, new ActionFormData().title('warning').button(''));
   if (warning.cancelationReason !== 'UserBusy') console.error('opened');
});```

Sorry for my dum dumbness

[chilly fractal]

Yo

Are dynamic imports allowed in minecraft?

Cuz if not then I'm cooked af..

Y'know what? I'll just test rq

[distant tulip]

1-20-80-21

[chilly fractal]

Yup they are functional indeed

I am so happy that i dont need to go through 7 stages of hell now

[remote oyster]

You want to check that it isn't UserBusy but you also want to make sure it's not UserClosed as well because that will give you a false response for action forms.

[chilly fractal]

Yo is require available in minecraft?

nvm I'll just test

Nope not supported

I guess I'll make my own build script to edit out all things to use a custom require and copy the node_modules into scripts/node_modules and delete the outer one and yeah... it should work... hypothetically

[round bone]

Why would you use require instead import?

[celest abyss]

EntityDie,is beta or stable?

[inland merlin]

question for those that use blocks in their scriptping alot..

any way to store dynamic properties on a block? im using coordinates in a database currently which makes it impossible nearly to keep the data with the block in a sturcture block moving stuff around unless i uses signs.... but i don't want signs

maybe if i had some sorta block inventory that is unaccessable with item in it with lore... but not sure

any ideas?

also don't want entities

but if i HAVE to

....

[dim tusk]

Umm, requires is like import tho

[thorn flicker]

stable.

[dim tusk]

No. Use world

[inland merlin]

but thats still location based for blocks right?

can't save data onto a block if its pushed by a piston or structure block

[thorn flicker]

no

[inland merlin]

i've encounterd this issue before but used a sign

[thorn flicker]

there's no dynamic properties for blocks

[inland merlin]

to store data, but thats ugly

i wish we had sign properties for custom blocks

[dim tusk]

r4isen once suggested that I use one dynamic property to store dynamic properties so that you will use all strings of that dynamic property without bloating a lot of dps

[inland merlin]

huh?

i know there is alot of plot systems that use structure blocks

[thorn flicker]

you can, or use world.dynamic properties.

[dim tusk]

i mean there's a piston event, a small little check can be possible

[inland merlin]

this is if someone saves a "plot" or area with structure block and loads it elsewhere with one of my custom blocks

[dim tusk]

Hmm

[inland merlin]

the main issue is i can't trace that location to a new spot

unless i modify the plot system directly

but i can't do that for everyone

[distant tulip]

why not?

[inland merlin]

i mean... how am i supposed to know if someone saves with a sturcture block.

from a different addon

[inland merlin]

how would you suggest i do this?

i used signs in the past to link the database to previous data but signs are ugly.

if they uses a plot system

they could just click on the sign/block and it updated the location

but i can't add data to that custom block

dynamically

all my levels are database side... not permutations...

but.... i guess..

idk

my only setback rn lamo

lmao

plot systems

[distant tulip]

you can make a system to save dynamic properties relative to the structure, and load them when you place it again

[inland merlin]

like all possible rotations?

4

and sizes

hmm

how would i grab the size of the sturcture block is that able to be grabbed

[distant tulip]

uhh, nvm lol
that a lot

[inland merlin]

or would i be customzing the plot system

yeah lmao, i hate this limitation

we need nbt or some sorta dynamic properties for blocks

the best i can think of is like signs, or inventory component

[distant tulip]

what is the data for

[inland merlin]

persistant data when spawner upgrades etc

dynamic

the block

[dim tusk]

I guess you can't really do anything about the structure block.

[inland merlin]

this one

ive been working on a while

[dim tusk]

even if you did, that's a lot of checks

[inland merlin]

yeah

well... signs the only way, or some sorta entity

[distant tulip]

that is an entity?

[inland merlin]

its a block

[dim tusk]

ahh, it's chest form data

[inland merlin]

yes

[dim tusk]

Lol, you modified it a bit.

[inland merlin]

some

yeah

lol

i also added a config shift in my database to make sure the ids match up depending on custom addons added to the same world lmao

that was interesting

[distant tulip]

spawner upgrades can just be a block state, no?

[inland merlin]

so if the items are off, its easy to fix

[dim tusk]

... Umm, since you're doing that, why not place an entity of with the block? And store the datats there? Tho it's still the lol, when they use structure block and include entitiesi false... Then nah

[inland merlin]

well, i suppose i can try block states/permutations? since i have it capped at 64 levels

[inland merlin]

yeah that would be a bummer

signs...

hmm

lol make a sign invisible

lmao

[dim tusk]

Can you list down all datat your plan to save in dynamic property

[inland merlin]

just using a scoreboard database for now... can always change it to the dynamic properties/database system

[dim tusk]

if it's not really custom strings or under a pattern only, just use states, just be careful when doing that since doing it setting states on a block sometimes causes TPS drop tho just rarely
-# still depends lol

[inland merlin]

the only thing that can be static/permanant is how many blocks are "stacked" according to the database...

so i could change a state of up to 64

that might work i suppose on custom block

but then getting more data from it

is the issue

i could get level but everything else is a bust

just some info passed

but there is alot of things like the storage, and xp etc..

so i guess my best bet is either my own custom structure plot system its compatible with, or use signs

to store some data

thanks for yall input!!!!

just gotta love the limitations

[fallow rivet]

Hello

[dim tusk]

Heh

[fallow rivet]

world.afterEvents.playerLeave.subscribe(({ playerId }) => {
const dimensions = ["overworld", "nether", "the_end"];
dimensions.forEach((dimensionName) => {
const dimension = world.getDimension(dimensionName);
const entities = dimension.getEntities({tags: [`owner:${playerId}`],})[0]
const version = entities.getDynamicProperty("version")
inventorys = entities.getComponent("inventory").container;
for (let i = 0; i < inventorys.size; i++) {
const item = inventorys.getItem(i);
if (item) {
datastoreentity.setItem((version*27)+i, item);
} else {
datastoreentity.setItem((version*27)+i, null);
}}
entities.forEach((entity) => entity.remove());
})});

This code is not working and I can't find the reason why it gives an error here

for (let i = 0; i < inventorys.size; i++) {

[dim tusk]

try using before events instead of after events and did you define the version?

[fallow rivet]

Yes

[inland merlin]

crap why do so many server/realm owners have plot systems fff's

lol

[fallow rivet]

But before beta

[dim tusk]

since the player already left the game especially if it's a single player, you can't check it anymore

[distant tulip]

unless you want to keep track of his inv all the time

[inland merlin]

signs are nbt data right

or some form of system they have for them

either i make my own plots system that makes them compatible... or im using stupid signs

[fallow rivet]

Before only beta?

[thorn flicker]

no

[inland merlin]

Yeah, Have to use signs (with id) to adjust the location. Oh well

  if (cancelationReason !== 'UserBusy' && cancelationReason !== 'UserClosed') console.error('test');

        if (response.cancelationReason !== 'UserBusy') return response;
    }
}```

Guys helped how to detect opened form.

[dim tusk]

I followed this lol

tho cancelationReason will only trigger if it's busy and closed when I do if statement and && them

It doesn't return true

-# sorry if the script is scuffed, I'm too lazy

[dense wraith]

[thorn flicker]

yup

[remote oyster]

Yea, idk, I find it to be this simple:

import { ActionFormData } from "@minecraft/server-ui";
import { Player, system, world } from "@minecraft/server";

function showActionForm(player: Player): void {
    const form = new ActionFormData().title("Sample Form").body("Testing busy state").button("OK");

    form.show(player)
        .then((response) => {
            if (response.cancelationReason === "UserBusy") {
                // Retry after a short delay if the user is busy
                system.waitTicks(20);
                // Recall the action form to create a new instance.
                showActionForm(player);
            } else if (response.selection !== undefined) {
                // Confirm that the user successfully opened and interacted with the form
                console.log(`${player.name} opened the form and selected option ${response.selection}.`);
            } else if (response.canceled) {
                // Handle case where user closed the form
                console.log(`${player.name} closed the form without making a selection.`);
            }
        })
        .catch((error) => {
            // Handle errors such as the player disconnecting
            console.error(`An error occurred while showing the form: ${error}`);
        });
}

// Example call to the function for all players in the world
world.getPlayers().forEach((player) => {
    showActionForm(player);
});

[dim tusk]

The thing is, I won't click buttons

[inland merlin]

this is the idea i have to save data (using §k)

ugly but works for persistant data (wax it with scripts) and then block breaking it etc...

the §k is scrambling lol, not in photo obv

for database, then they just have to hit the block or sign to fix the location of the block... and then open the chestformdata again and then we are back in business. nothing changes other then relinking the spawner.

so i think this is the current solution

[valid ice]

Interesting

[remote oyster]

Buttons are the only way to interact with the action form which returns a response after showing it to the player, aside from either cases of canceling.

[dim tusk]

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. I think I'm gonna use npc. I'm just displaying an image so yeah.

there's a built-in open and close ...

[steady canopy]

save it in rawtext format, it wont show in the sign

or idk if it still works i tried that when they just implemented the sign apis

if the rawtext is invalid you can get is as a JSON but it wont show in the sign

[wary edge]

@sick robin Please don't crosspost.

[sick robin]

sorry

@wary edge how do I get the most out of jayly debug

[inland merlin]

Oh ill look at that

[chilly fractal]

Not me, other modules.

[chilly fractal]

Yes but for commonjs

Also if commonjs require fails then i can't use import pkg from "discord.js";

It would fail also

(I tried it to make sure, and it fails)

Kinda my only request to the devs to allow us to import packages fr

I have been losing my mind

Using bundlers like webpack, esbuild... I'll keep trying more, i made my own require, and named it requireLimited and yeah it almost worked but kinda too many bugs for me to fix.. so now i am going after the tactic of replacing relative/absolute paths in require to the actual location and i have copied node_modules inside

The scripts folder

Not sure if i put the entry point to be the same level as manifest.json would i be able to access node_modules directly as is but that's kinda useless as i also moved my package.json & package-lock.json inside of the scripts folder

[granite cape]

https://github.com/nperma/Stool-API
Maybe this library can help with development, even though it's not finished yet

[dim tusk]

I don't think so

[chilly fractal]

Yo bois if i make my own kinda bundler which bundles pretty much any package (to a certain point) should i publish it?

[remote oyster]

Depends on how diversified it is. In a Minecraft environment, you need to be sure that what is being bundled supports ESM.

Not sure if you plan to bundle it in a way where it compiles it all into one single script or keeping them separate. I personally do not favor compiling it all into a single script when bundling. It just doesn't look natural to me. So I like to simply copy what external packages I need, over to my behavior pack after building it, and just ensuring the paths are correct. Very simple process honestly, and I don't have it all piled up in a single "main" script.

[simple zodiac]

I do not see any advantages of using something like that over an already exsisting bundler tbh

But If you plan on doing it anyways then yeh go for it. Because why not?

[meager cargo]

Can anyone help me?

const blockCenter = centerBlock.center();

This is not working and not detecting if player is in the center of the block - water. I would like to make that if player jump on or try swim he gets teleported. But if he goes on waterlogged stairs block it won't detect him.

I tried using below(1);, but it also detected water on surface, not under surface 1 block

[wary edge]

Can you show a video of what happens?

[meager cargo]

I can't show video right now, but when I'm using below(1); it detects water on surface, in pond. But when I use center(); nothing is happening

[subtle cove]

may u provide us the code used..

[meager cargo]

Sure,

system.runInterval(() => {
    const players = world.getPlayers();
    if (players) {
        for (const player of players) {
            const blockUnder = player.dimension.getBlock(player.location);
            if (!blockUnder) continue; 
            const blockBelow = blockUnder.below(1); // center();
            if (!blockBelow) continue; 

            if (
                blockBelow.typeId === "minecraft:water" &&
                player.hasTag("test1") &&
                player.hasTag("test2")
            ) {
                const teleportPointEntities = player.dimension.getEntities({
                    tags: ["teleport_point"],
                    location: player.location,
                    maxDistance: 150,
                });

                if (teleportPointEntities.length > 0) {
                    const teleportPoint = teleportPointEntities.reduce(
                        (farthest, current) => {
                            const currentDistance = Math.sqrt(
                                Math.pow(current.location.x - player.location.x, 2) +
                                Math.pow(current.location.y - player.location.y, 2) +
                                Math.pow(current.location.z - player.location.z, 2)
                            );
                            const farthestDistance = Math.sqrt(
                                Math.pow(current.location.x - player.location.x, 2) +
                                Math.pow(current.location.y - player.location.y, 2) +
                                Math.pow(current.location.z - player.location.z, 2)
                            );

                            return currentDistance > farthestDistance ? current : farthest;
                        }
                    );
                    const targetLocation = teleportPoint.location;
                    player.teleport(targetLocation, { facing: player.location });
                }
            }
        }
    }
}, 1);

[subtle cove]

try this one

system.runInterval(() => {
    for (const player of world.getAllPlayers()) {
        const playerLocation = player.location
        try {
            const location = {...playerLocation};
            location.y -= 1;
            const blockBelow = player.dimension.getBlock(location);
            if (!blockBelow?.isWaterlogged || !blockBelow.typeId.includes("water")) continue;
        } catch {
            // Check if player is above water or waterlogged block, it throws an error when out of bounds
            continue
        }
        if (
            player.hasTag("test1") &&
            player.hasTag("test2")
        ) {
            const teleportPointEntity = player.dimension.getEntities({
                tags: ["teleport_point"],
                location: playerLocation,
                maxDistance: 150,
            }).pop();

            if (!teleportPointEntity) {
                //perhaps remove the tags here to prevent spam tps
                const targetLocation = teleportPointEntity.location;
                player.teleport(targetLocation, { facingLocation: playerLocation });
            }
        }
    }
}, 1);

looks like the dim.getEntities({location}) sorts the entities by distance from that location, ||as long as the query has that location property,|| (near to far).
So the last entity in the array should be ur target

[chilly fractal]

The only reason i ever started this bundler project is to be able to use discord.js but uhh i think, there is a cdn for it...

So i guess I'll just discontinue working on it for now as i have a deadline for when i must finish

I just forgor to ask a very important question

Is the scripting api environment a more restricted version of nodejs? I don't think so because require and stuff don't work so i think it is a browser environment... i wonder would it let me import stuff from links?

[subtle cove]

server-net's HTTP methods only iirc

[chilly fractal]

I don't think there are any advantages lol, i just thought it was cool to make my own bundler

[chilly fractal]

Like i can't import using import?... so i need to scratch a website like github and load stuff from there?

[granite cape]

randomTeleport?

[subtle cove]

[granite cape]

that's randomTeleport?

[subtle cove]

sigh a post pls...

[meager cargo]

Nope, it's more like defending/checking/checkpoint system

[granite cape]

o

ok

[granite cape]

but its like rtp system

nvm im stupid

[meager cargo]

Don't say that!
It's not exactly like rtp, but it is using entities with tags as points to teleport. I have bunch of different entities with this tag regarding situation. And if player is in this case near water and he try run across water pond, it should teleport him to the entity or near this entity

[chilly fractal]

Eh, well..

[granite cape]

ooh okok i know

[granite cape]

like this?

[granite cape]

system.runInterval(()=>{
  for(const player of world.getPlayers()) {
    const block = player.dimension.getBlock(player.location)
    player.onScreenDisplay.setActionBar(`
    block: ${block.typeId}
    waterlogged: ${block.isWaterlogged}
    liquid: ${block.isLiquid}
    block-below: ${block.below(1).typeId}
    block-below-waterlogged: ${block.below(1).isWaterlogged}
    below-isliquid: ${block.below(1).isLiquid}
    `)
  }
})

im sure im being stupid but why is this not working?

switch (event.block.location){
    case {x: 10099, y: -59, z: 10001}:
        world.sendMessage("hi");
        break;
}

[dim tusk]

you can't use objects there.

const location = block.location;

if (location.x === 10099 && location.y === -59 && location.z === 10001) {
    world.sendMessage("hi");
}```

do this.

Or you can just make it as a string.

const location = `${block.location.x},${block.location.y},${block.location.z}`;

switch (location) {
    case "10099,-59,10001":
        world.sendMessage('lol');

[empty yoke]

is there any event that always works when you interact with an item? Why am I using itemUse on the item chest but it doesn't work if I interact with the blocks, even if I prevent the chest from being placed

[somber cedar]

You use itemuseon instead of itemuse https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server.WorldBeforeEvents.html#itemuseon

[granite cape]

there is a separate event for that

playerPlaceBlock,playerInteractWithBlock

[empty yoke]

ok, but I'm trying to open the menu via an item chest without the player placing the chest on the floor, I'm using the event to prevent the chest from being placed but then the itemUse event doesn't work

[granite cape]

Looks like it has to be manual for now

If you’re using the event to to cancel block placement, why not also use it to open the menu?

AI advised me, I didn’t know, what a liar he is!!!

[chilly fractal]

It*

[limber patrol]

yeah

[limber patrol]

I tried it and it doesn't work

I still remain in the crafting table

ohhh

the player needs to attack!

[distant tulip]

if that didn't work tp the player away and back, or remove the crafting table and set it back

[limber patrol]

phenomenally brilliant

[dim tusk]

just a small head up, the way it closes the ui doesn't work always, when you get damaged and you open ui and you get damaged it won't close the ui. It has a cooldown we can say

tho, I have some stupid way I did before, change gamemode of player to creative then back to original gamemode

it works fine with me

[limber patrol]

I did that, changed the game mode, but didn't return because I don't need creative, but is it worth adding a return?

[dim tusk]

huh? Sorry I'm confused on what you just said. Just simply is enough

Player.setGameMode('creative');
Player.setGameMode('survival');```

[limber patrol]

how to save player position, teleport up 100 blocks, and then return to saved position exactly to .01?

[thorn flicker]

player.setDynamicProperty('location', player.location)

[limber patrol]

This may seem funny to you, but I can't think of anything else:

player.runCommandAsync("tp @s ~ ~+100 ~");
player.runCommandAsync("tp @s ~ ~-100 ~");

[thorn flicker]

player.teleport(player.getDynamicProperty('location'))

[limber patrol]

but it doesn't work and only teleports down

[alpine ibex]

Erm does anybody know how I can get animation controller query.is_item_equipped to work?

NVM thanks anyways if you we're going to tell me

Next time on such issues in #1067869022273667152

[alpine ibex]

Yes,yes

[quick shoal]

Never trust ai , otherwise world will get destroy

Ai is lying forever

[slow walrus]

you really don't need to cache the location. It's all happening in one tick

Update on server-admin on local worlds:

[weary umbra]

is there away to set a string in MolangVariableMap?
molang.setFloat("variable.texture", "");

bc every function can only read numbers

no

try using the stop expression in playAnimation and spawn the particle from the animation (you need a dummy entity)

You made me sad

[wheat condor]

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

[odd path]

This only identifies after I broke the block

It doesn't identify when I start mining or stop mining

[wheat condor]

then you cant identify if you re breaking

you can use this to identify left clicks #1323024128877527211

[odd path]

I can't use animation controller

It's an addon for the Marketplace 😔

[wheat condor]

then there is absolute no way of doing this

[odd path]

Is it possible to identify that I have stopped breaking?

[wheat condor]

no

maybe playerhitblock

[odd path]

There is a way to identify when I start to break and when I break, but there is no way to identify when I stop breaking

[wheat condor]

what do you need that for?

[odd path]

To run an animation while breaking a block

[wheat condor]

rp animations?

[odd path]

Script

Only script

[wheat condor]

why

[odd path]

Because it is a Marketplace addon 😭

[wheat condor]

and marketplace doesnt allow editing vanilla aninatins?

[odd path]

No

It is forbidden

[wheat condor]

then just post on mcpedl

with patreon

[odd path]

It's just that I work for a company

The addon is not mine

[wheat condor]

then there is no way of doing this

I have 2 loops

1 loop that test for players

const entities = world.getDimension("overworld").getEntities();

for (const entity of entities)
..
}

i might get around 30 players in a server

do u guys have any optimization suggestions?

Get entities includes players so maybe try that?

Yes, here is an example showing your error:

like this?

[remote oyster]

Yup, now take it for a test drive to see if there are any other issues or if you are good to go.

[serene lava]

it isn't working, something is missing in the script?

[remote oyster]

Looks fine to me. I'm assuming line 1 you are importing what is needed.

Maybe check data.id to be sure it matches the string you have in the script.

You can print it using console.log().

Maybe it's a stupid question, but I recently found out that if I exit game when script is performing runTimeout it won't perform again when I join to world again. Is there any solution, so even if player exit world when runTimeout is on, it will continue/restart after player join again?

Anyone pls?

save the method in dynmic property..

remove when executed

Yo

Does minecraft support crypto apis?

[dim tusk]

YOLO

[chilly fractal]

Like

window.crypto

(Reason is they have really good random generation and i wanna utilize that)

[chilly fractal]

The heck is yolo?

[chilly fractal]

Commands = Bad

[dim tusk]

you only live once

[chilly fractal]

Ooooh

[dim tusk]

I doubt they do.

[chilly fractal]

Yeah i doubt it too

I can't use require or import crypto from "crypto"; so that means nodejs's built-in crypto module is not supported and since minecraft doesn't support window nor any web api then they dont support it at all

[dim tusk]

yeah. Node js isn't supported.

[chilly fractal]

I know

I was just saying

[dim tusk]

ALL I FREAKING WANT IS BEFORE VENTS ENTITYHITENTITY

GOD DAMNIT

-# my bad I ranted a bit

[chilly fractal]

They aren't gonna do that soon (probably)

I just won't yap

[chilly fractal]

Isn't there a packet for it?

[dim tusk]

im talking about non server

[chilly fractal]

Ah

Well then ig good luck lol

All i want is a way to open a websocket

And then i am a happy and free man

WSConnectPacket
:(

Why do they only allow /wsserver & /connect

Cmon add a scripting api method moyang

[chilly fractal]

(I am assuming that these 2 commands are level 4 commands which are not runnable with necessary permissions from within scripts)

But why not try

Who am i not to try

[dim tusk]

I wished before that /reload can be used in commands

I'm too lazy to manually type if 🤣

guys, what'd you think the best way to check the location you are looking to an eitity

Imagine faceLocation on blocks

[chilly fractal]

Wdym?

Distance from you and entity

Or

Entity's location

Or
the location of the block the entity is in?

[chilly fractal]

Nah you could crash the server with that one

That one has many reasons not to be allowed within scripting api

But what can a simple websocket do?

[dim tusk]

no, like which position or collision player is looking. As I said imagine the faceLocation methods in blocks

[remote oyster]

Long shot, but don't execute it off the player. Try executing it off the world. May or may not work.

world.getDimension(player.dimension.id).runCommand();

[winter plaza]

How do you teleport 1 block forward according to the mob's vision?

[dim tusk]

const head = Entity.getHeadLocation();
const view = Entity.getViewDirection();

Entity.teleport({ x: head.x + view.x * 1, y: head.y * view.y + 1, z: head.z + view.z * 1 });```

[winter plaza]

but when the mob is teleported, it looks forward, how do you solve this?

[dim tusk]

get the rotation of the mob.

const rotation = Entity.getRotation();
Entity.teleport(...., { rotation: rotation });```

tho it's better if you store it in a variable.

[shut citrus]

how can I give players have their own array/ class

[cold grove]

<Player>.yourvariablename = []

[chilly fractal]

Yeah i am not that much of a math nerd..

[chilly fractal]

Yeah, i do that. For all commands, i still didn't try websocket thing cuz... yeah i don't have time

I am so fking behind schedule

Dang man

[distant tulip]

a bit of math
you can't get the exact location without the entity hit box tho

[latent wing]

Does anyone know how I can make a dynamic life bar? I've got everything, I just need some math to control the bar with simple numbers ;-;

[warm mason]

What exactly do you need to calculate?

[latent wing]

I couldn't explain it well, but making the life bar change with a 10-point system, when the player loses a certain amount of life the script would take as a reference the maximum amount of life to be able to calculate how much life he lost and thus assign a number from 1 to 10 with 10 being the highest and 1 being the lowest

[warm mason]

let length = current/max*barLength

let length = player.getComponent('health').currentValue/player.getComponent('health').effectiveMax*10```

[latent wing]

Thanks!

is there a way to stop a for loop once a error is detected, specifically if a particle is outside boundaries?

[noble bolt]

break

[misty pivot]

yeah but how about detecting the error?

let me try using catch

[noble bolt]

depends on the error

[meager cargo]

I have question, Is there anything like checking what button player pressed on his keyboard? OR someone has idea how I can check that?

[wary edge]

You can't detect specific keypress.

ehh, thank for info!

[woven loom]

you can detect input keys tho

wasd shift space

yo

world.afterEvents.entityHitEntity.subscribe((event) => {

the damage undefined how to fix that?

oh ty

[grim raft]

now it says this
[Scripting][error]-TypeError: cannot read property 'runCommand' of undefined at <anonymous>

wait nvm

nvm again

damagingEntity is not defined

[wary edge]

How are you testing this code?

[grim raft]

ingame

by hitting an entity

[wary edge]

Of course in game...are you hitting the entity or what scenario happens that logs the "damagingEntity is not defined".

[grim raft]

was messing with u abt ingame and yea when hitting an entity the error appears

[chilly fractal]

Nah my Importer & Exporter classes are smoking crack

One minute they are working

And the other they aren't

(I didn't change anything)

Or minecraft is smoking crack

Or the await import(<file>); method is smoking crack

[wary edge]

It is likely the await portion.

[chilly fractal]

Cuz i am 100 and 10 percent sure that both the files i am importing have an export

And also the they are in the correct corresponding location

[chilly fractal]

Nah i handle async correctly

[wary edge]

Are you sure?

[chilly fractal]

Minecraft is just smoking crack

[chilly fractal]

I am sure.

[noble ibex]

Does anybody know if there's a way to detect an entity's target using scripts?

[chilly fractal]

This time it wasn't a 6am coding session

[chilly fractal]

entity.target

[wary edge]

People always like to blame Minecraft first.

[noble ibex]

fr? I didnt see that in the docs

Ill look again

[chilly fractal]

Nah dude. I swear, the thing is in the corresponding location, and i am using async and await

And everything works fine

I even tested with the exact setup

On the web

Using html & js

[grim raft]

so ehh any solutions?

[noble ibex]

yeah nah its not

[chilly fractal]

And it literally doesn't throw any error

[chilly fractal]

Did you try?

[wary edge]

Oh duh, because the ode M9 gave you is entityHurt, not just entityHitEntity.

[grim raft]

oh didnt see that

[noble ibex]

nvm its in the beta docs, thanks

[chilly fractal]

You're welcome.

[grim raft]

it works now ty

also this

world.afterEvents.entityHitEntity.subscribe((event) => {
    const { damagingEntity } = event
    const itemStack = damagingEntity.getComponent('equippable').getEquipment("Mainhand")
    const itemUsing = itemStack.typeId == 'bleach:zanpakuto_2'
    const score = world.scoreboard.getObjective('z2_charge')

    if (itemUsing)
        damagingEntity.runCommand('scoreboard players add @s z2_charge 1')```

when I hit an entity with no item an error appears

everything works but I want to remove that error

[Scripting][error]-TypeError: cannot read property 'typeId' of undefined at <anonymous> (main.js:73)

[chilly fractal]

Use itemStack?.typeId

[grim raft]

now how can I detect the damged entities?

[wary edge]

https://stirante.com/script/server/1.16.0/classes/EntityHurtAfterEvent.html#hurtEntity

[grim raft]

ty

[grave nebula]

so using @minecraft/server-admin you can transfer to another server, is it possible to transfer to another world in the same server?

i want to put 2 maps on seperate worlds and transfer between them

[grim raft]

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe((event) => {
    const { damageSource } = event
    const entity = event.hurtEntity.typeId == 'bleach:dummy'
    if (entity)
        entity.runCommandAsync(`summon bleach:damage_indicator §c${event.damage}`);
})```
can entities run commands?

I want to sumon at the entity no at the player

the error is not a function at the command line

[fallow rivet]

system.runInterval(() => {
const dimensions = [
world.getDimension("overworld"),
world.getDimension("nether"),
world.getDimension("the_end")
];
for (const dimension of dimensions) {
for (const entity of dimension.getEntities()) {
if (entity.id == "kaos:backpack") {
console.warn("test")
const entityid = entity.getDynamicProperty("playerid");
let testentity = true;
for (const player of world.getPlayers()) {
if (entityid == player.id) {
testentity = false;
}}
if (testentity == true) {
console.warn(entityid)
}
}}}});

Why dont work

Does not give any error

[winter pumice]

do you mean entity.typeId === 'kaos:backpack'?

[fallow rivet]

Yea

[remote oyster]

You can run multiple servers on the same network. Just need to have them on different ports.

Have each server handle the different worlds, and transfer to each one as needed based on the port.

[fallow rivet]

system.runInterval(() => {
const dimensions = [
world.getDimension("overworld"),
world.getDimension("nether"),
world.getDimension("the_end")
];
for (const dimension of dimensions) {
for (const entity of dimension.getEntities()) {
if (entity.typeId == "kaos:backpacks") {
const entityid = entity.getDynamicProperty("playerid");
const verion = entity.getDynamicProperty("version");
let testentity = true;
for (const player of world.getPlayers()) {
if (entityid == player.id) {
testentity = false;
}}
if (testentity == true) {
const datastoreentity = world.getDimension("overworld").getEntities({tags: [`datastore`],})[0].getComponent("inventory").container;
inventorys = entity.getComponent("inventory").container;
for (let i = 0; i < inventorys.size; i++) {
const item = inventorys.getItem(i);
if (item) {
datastoreentity.setItem((version*27)+i, item);
} else {
datastoreentity.setItem((version*27)+i, null);
}}
entity.forEach((entities) => entities.remove());
}
}}}});

I don't know what to do

[grim raft]

shouldnt this be const?
inventorys = entity.getComponent("inventory").container;

[fallow rivet]

I've been looking for this bug for 10 minutes and I can't believe I didn't see it.

[grim raft]

every dev be like:

I sometimes code in the wrong file then need to restart everything again lol

[distant tulip]

that code seem to have some other problems if you are up for suggestions

[grave nebula]

Ik i can do that i just wanted to see if there was a way like java has

[remote oyster]

How else would Java do it? I would imagine the logic is the same, with whatever tool they use for running a server.

[inland merlin]

hear me out..... "block dynamic properties"

that would solve alot of issues in regards to structure blocks and scripting for block data

[wary edge]

Yeah, highly requested.

[inland merlin]

maybe they will push or prioritize it because of this hahaha......

[wary edge]

Maybe.

It's been highly requested ever since item dp.

[inland merlin]

awh yeah it would complete it

[dim tusk]

no. That's wrong

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe((event) => {
    const { damageSource, hurtEntity: entity, damage } = event;
    if (entity.typeId === 'bleach:dummy') {
        entity.runCommandAsync(`summon bleach:damage_indicator §c${damage}`);
    }
})```

or you can just...

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe(({ damageSource: damagingEntity, damagingProjectile, cause }, hurtEntity: entity, damage }) => {
    if (entity.typeId === 'bleach:dummy') {
         const damageInt = entity.dimension.spawnEntity('bleach:damage_indicator');
         damageInt.nameTag = `§c${damage}`;
     }
})```

[deep arrow]

are dynamic properties on players permanent?

like when they leave, join, kick, die, etc.

yep

[grave nebula]

you can run worlds on different ports without using different server software

theres plugins for it

ex: bungeecord

[remote oyster]

I wasn't suggesting using different server software. You can run the same software. You just need to make sure the ports are different.

[grave nebula]

how exactly would i run 2 different worlds on the same software

how do you manage the different ports

[remote oyster]

BDS has a file called server.properties which allows you to specify the port of your choice. You can run more than one instance of BDS.

[grave nebula]

right, and you also have to specify the world name

you cannot transfer a player between 2 world files

you have to have different servers running

on 2 different ports

i was wondering if you can only run 1 server and transfer from one file to another

[remote oyster]

I know you can move files around as needed (BDS only) but I cannot think of how you would "reload" the world without disconnecting the player.

So running more than one instance on different ports may be your only option.

Then using the following:

[remote oyster]

@grave nebula

I don't know much about this repo but you can check it out and see if it's what you need:

https://github.com/crowbarmaster/BedrockManagementService

[grave nebula]

it might work except i use linux

so i cant use it

its fine tho

ill make my own system

[remote oyster]

Ah, I wasn't aware that you were a Linux user. 👍

[grave nebula]

Yh

[simple zodiac]

You guys are probably looking for proxies like waterdog that can transfer server by faking a dimesnion change which is faster then the transfer packet. To bad most proxies don't work with bds or only do so partially

[chilly fractal]

Nahhhhh

Minecraft is SMOKING crack

I literally tried my importer class with node & with browser codes

It works

It works

(WITH THE SAME FILES)

And it doesn't work on Minecraft

It says the module is not found

[subtle cove]

mhm...

[chilly fractal]

HOW IS IT NOT FOUND

[subtle cove]

its isolated

[chilly fractal]

IT IS EXACTLY THE CORRECT FILE

[chilly fractal]

??

[subtle cove]

what file?

[chilly fractal]

The importer class i made for managing imports and also correctly resolves the true path from the current script to the imported works but not on minecraft

[subtle cove]

without server-net?

Yes

It just uses import and some string manipulation

[subtle cove]

where is this said files located relative to the BP

[chilly fractal]

What?

They are in the scripts folder

I dont import outside

[subtle cove]

show sample...
i cant imagine

[chilly fractal]

Ima send the class

I need someone to test cuz i have lost my mind

Maybe my phone is modifying the game some how

[chilly fractal]

Anyway here it is

I tested and tested

Still the same error

Everything, Everything works except the part where it does its job

Here is also the exporter

And log

But they are unnecessary and wouldn't effect anything as i am using a type single import.

Here is the player.js if you really do need it also

I hope some higher intelligence being tells me what happened here because i tested with so many devices

Maybe just maybe

It might be the folder case i didn't test?

One sec-

Oh yeah, the sendMsgWithSound has a little bit of an error so yeah ill fix it later

But still it isn't run even once currently

[chilly fractal]

Yeah kinda now doesn't say anything

It's for sure my class

Sorry for the hurdle

[dim tusk]

What's happening here.

[chilly fractal]

Me arguing my Importer class with myself in public

I'm still confused how it resolves the correct path yet doesn't import

Ima just remake it from scratch

NOT the getRelativePath tho

That is staying there

And will stay there

And in every version

I will not lose my sanity on it too

[dim tusk]

first time?

This is my exact feeling trying to make my chess work

PAIN IN MY FREAKING ASS

[chilly fractal]

Ye
