Script API General

[chilly fractal]

And im just remaking it

If i face another error I'll make a posy

Post*

[cerulean cliff]

Am I just stupid or is there really no way to check for the difficulty in scripting?

[wary edge]

There isnt.

There's an enum but not used.

[cerulean cliff]

really?!

awwh that sucks

[chilly fractal]

I forgor to do a status update, so uh. await import(); works as per the script that has that

Like i need to get the relative path from the importer script's location to the imported script.

(Saying this incase you wanna use my importer class or make your own)

[chilly fractal]

That's also on the web.... yea sorry mojang & minecraft kinda... i blamed yall even tho i didn't know how import works cuz of my ego

[sharp elbow]

Bro went through an entire character arc over the course of twelve hours

[remote oyster]

A lore in the making

[distant gulch]

quick question mates

player.getAimAssist()
    .set(
        {
            presetId: ":default",
            distance: 10,
            targetMode: AimAssistTargetMode.Distance,
            viewAngle: { x: 0.25, y: 0.25 }
        }
    );

Is this how it works?

-# Is this everything i need to do?

W Admin is playing ZZZ

[wary edge]

Haha.

[wary edge]

Yeah, that should be correct, except for presetId. Should be namespace:id.

[distant gulch]

yea i was still thinking about a good namespace, anyways thanks :D

[wintry bane]

How do I convert queued_ticking into JS?

"minecraft:queued_ticking": {
  "looping": false,
  "range_interval": [30, 40],
  "on_tick": {
    "event": "remove_block",
    "target": "self"
  }
}

[chilly fractal]

system.runInterval(() => {
  // code
}, 20); // runs every 20 ticks

[wintry bane]

thx

[chilly fractal]

You're welcome

[wary edge]

Should use custom components.

That way you can also use the tick component.

[wintry bane]

But doesn't that run every tick?

[wary edge]

The tick component has an interval property.

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/blocks/block-components.html#tick

[wintry bane]

So that's what it's used for..

Never could've guessed until I asked now, thanks

[grave nebula]

How do i set a block permutation using scripts?

im making a spawner for skyblock and when i stack them into a single block, it only drops one instead of how many ive put in

[dim tusk]

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

block.setPermutation(block.permutation.withState('<name>', <value>);

block.setPermutation(BlockPermutation.resolve('<block name>', { <name>: <value>, <name>: <value> });

[grave nebula]

thx

[fast lark]

how can i detect if a player has the inventory full?

[dim tusk]

js const inventory = player.getComponent('inventory').container; if (inventory.emptySlotsCount === inventory.size) {}

[distant tulip]

inventory.emptySlotsCount === 0

[fast lark]

thx

[dim tusk]

That works too

[chilly fractal]

Reverse

Add !==

[dim tusk]

hmm.

Okay lmfao

[distant tulip]

yours don't

[distant tulip]

that won't work too

[chilly fractal]

Actually tho nah. That doesn't work much

Yeah just use minato's

[dim tusk]

really? Hm okay then

[chilly fractal]

It would flag if even just one slot is full

[dim tusk]

K

[distant tulip]

inventory.emptySlotsCount === inventory.size
mean you have 27 empty slot
inventory.emptySlotsCount !== inventory.size
mean you have less or more than that

[dim tusk]

Sorry, I'm kinda cold when responding

I'm manually putting params wait

[distant tulip]

it is alr

[dim tusk]

ahhh....

/**
 * This event fires for each BlockLocation destroyed by an explosion.
 * It is fired after the blocks have already been destroyed.
 *
 * @param {Object} event - The event object
 * @param {Block} event.block - The exploded block
 * @param {Dimension} event.dimension - The dimension of the explosion
 * @param {Entity | undefined} event.source - The entity that caused the explosion (if any)
 * @param {BlockPermutation} event.explodedBlockPermutation - The permutation of the exploded block
 */
world.afterEvents.blockExplode.subscribe(({ block, dimension, source, explodedBlockPermutation }) => {});```

Quick question, is this correct?

the @params
-# I rarely touch param comments lol

[wicked girder]

anyway to stop a player from swimming?

[scarlet sable]

where is the hunger system coded?

[dim tusk]

The hunger bar isn't accessible unfortunately, both get and set isn't possible

[scarlet sable]

oh

client sided I see

[dim tusk]

disable the movements? The player can swim if there is just water and when they sprint.

[distant tulip]

seem ok

[wicked girder]

maybe is there a way to stop sprinting? I want to have it so the player is able to jump and move in water but not swim

[distant tulip]

if only isSwimming wasn't Readonly like isSneaking

[dim tusk]

disable the forward movements and make your own movement

using inputinfo and applyKnockback

tho inputinfo is still in beta

[dim tusk]

nice... 15 more to go

[distant tulip]

sound like a bad idea

[dim tusk]

then I dunno 🤷

do some hacky ways to disable swimming

[wicked girder]

im just gonna have it constantly push them down if they are swimming

[chilly fractal]

Make them sneak

If they sneak

They can't sprint

And if they can't sprint

They can't swim

If they are swimming then make them sneak

.isSneaking = true

[scarlet sable]

you can sneak while swiming tho

[dim tusk]

during swimming yes. But when trying to swim no

[sweet seal]

t

    if (selectedIndex !== undefined) {
      const selectedItem = selectedIndex < 4 ? equippableComponent.getEquipment(armorSlots[selectedIndex]) : inventory.getItem(selectedIndex + 9);
      if (selectedItem) {
        const enchantableComponent = selectedItem.getComponent("minecraft:enchantable");
        const name = selectedItem.nameTag || selectedItem.typeId.replace("minecraft:", "").replace(/_/g, " ");
        const displayName = name.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + name.slice(1);

        if (enchantableComponent) {
          const enchantmentOptions = [
            { name: "Sharpness", type: "minecraft:sharpness" },
            { name: "Unbreaking", type: "minecraft:unbreaking" },
            { name: "Fire Aspect", type: "minecraft:fire_aspect" },
            { name: "Knockback", type: "minecraft:knockback" }
          ];

          const modalForm = new ModalFormData()
            .title("§l§dAdd Enchantment")
            .dropdown(`  \n§dSelect an enchantment to add:\n\n§dItem Selected: §5${displayName}\n`, enchantmentOptions.map(option => option.name))
            .toggle("§d§lConfirm Enchantment?", false);

          modalForm.show(player).then(modalResponse => {
            if (!modalResponse.canceled && modalResponse.formValues[1]) {
              const selectedEnchantment = enchantmentOptions[modalResponse.formValues[0]];

              const enchantment = { type: new EnchantmentType(selectedEnchantment.type), level: 1 };

              const enchComp = selectedItem.getComponent('enchantable');
              enchComp.addEnchantment(enchantment);

              player.sendMessage(`§d§lSuccess§5 >§r§d You added §l${selectedEnchantment.name}§r to §d${selectedItem.typeId}`);
            }
          });
        } else {
          player.sendMessage("§d§lError§r§d§l >§r§d This item is not enchantable.");
        }
      }
    }
  });
}

Why is it not adding the enchantment?

[dim tusk]

because enchantments don't have minecraft: namespace

It's just name

like instead of minecraft:sharpness it's sharpnes

[thorn flicker]

and you need to set the item back into the slot to save changes to the itemstack.

[sweet seal]

how would I do dat

[thorn flicker]

after editing the itemStack, use the setEquipment method.

[sweet seal]

              try {
              player.getComponent('inventory').setItem(player.selectedSlotIndex, selectedItem);
              } catch (err) {
                world.sendMessage(`Error: ${err}`)
              }

why this not work?

[thorn flicker]

use the setEquipment method on the equippable component you have.

[fast lark]

someone know the name of the sound for an wrong command/answer like the boom

of the note block i think

player.playSound("note.bass")?

[dim tusk]

yah, but remember that it also changes based on sound below

[distant gulch]

Guys, are theese the right npm modules?

[chrome flint]

those are betas

[distant gulch]

Yes, I know. i use them for "chatSend" e.t.c

[remote oyster]

You don't want the preview versions unless you use Preview. Otherwise you just need the stable beta.

[distant gulch]

like 1.17.0-beta.1.21.51-stable

[remote oyster]

Yup

[distant gulch]

Does the version contains stuff like chatSend?

[rigid meadow]

is it possible to use ts to read json file?

[distant gulch]

I dont think so

[rigid meadow]

i thought it was possible for the files only in the same folder of the scripts

[remote oyster]

Yes

https://stirante.com/script/

[distant gulch]

Thengs :D

[sterile epoch]

What's the method for making a sign honeycomb i forgot ir

[pale terrace]

is there an afterEvent that return when the player change its spawnpoint?

[shut citrus]

Why then you can get player system info?

[dim tusk]

only WASD, jump and sneak

other than that no

[chilly fractal]

Probably not

You can cache their spawnpoint and check every now and then in an interval

[chilly fractal]

block.getComponent('sign').setWaxed(true) but wait, lemme double check

Yeah

It is that

Also here take a look. https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server.BlockSignComponent-1.html#setwaxed

[chilly fractal]

I mean... if an import works but i dont really know how import would work in that case, also you can just do: js export default // json object
For example:

export default {
  apiKey: 'something'
}```

I think an import would also work for a normal json file

In any way you'd have to use either:

import data from './data.json';

console.warn(data.someProperty);

Or ```js
import * as data from './data.json';

console.log(data.someProperty);

[chilly fractal]

Oooor:

import data from './data.js';

console.warn(data.someProperty);

Or ```js
import * as data from './data.js';

console.log(data.someProperty);

If you use the `export default` method

All should work

So just use what is easier for you

[dim tusk]

That's a lot of OOOR

Are you a seal? 🦭

[chilly fractal]

Nope

I do deals

With the await import()

[granite badger]

you can't read json files in scripts folder, use a bundler instead

[chilly fractal]

The big bad devil.

[chilly fractal]

Well just a better way is to use export default

[unique acorn]

is there any way to get what trim an itemStack has?

sucks.

[scarlet sable]

since we're getting a game pause next update will that also mean we'll get more control over the in game time?

[boreal siren]

Guys, how can I implement a system for naming an entity with the ability to have a new line?

[fallow rivet]

Does the "itemstack" of an item contain dynamic properties?

[warm mason]

I think that the scripts will also stop, since system.currentTick will not change during the pause.

[warm mason]

entity.nameTag = 'line1\nline2'

[warm mason]

You can use dynamicProperty on ItemStack if its max quantity = 1

[fallow rivet]

I know this

That's not what I'm wondering

For example, if an item has dynamic data, will the dynamic data be deleted if I clone this item with a script?

[warm mason]

no

[subtle cove]

well dynamic property is exclusive to one pack only from when it's been saved
it uses the manifest uuid saved in db file in the world

[fallow rivet]

What happens if we delete that file?

[subtle cove]

idk, havent tried it

[warm mason]

You will break your world, since this file contains almost all the information about the world

[subtle cove]

it looks like this

[rigid meadow]

how does that work?

using like webpack?

[chilly fractal]

Yeah even make your own simple bundler

All you have to do is resolve dependencies

Aka remove any import calls and just put everything it import's into the same file

[hushed ravine]

Can I stop fishing rod damage if I grab a player with it?

[chilly fractal]

Nah anything damage related is not possible with scripting api

Not now at least

You can use damage sensors tho

[hushed ravine]

Huh?

[chilly fractal]

And use some property + damage sensor + event + scripting api

The first 3 are related to the player entity

Meaning youll need to edit the player.json

Which will make your addon inportable with other addons that might use it

[chilly fractal]

There are lots of examples in the #1067869022273667152 channel so take a look.

[nocturne berry]

How do you detect the healing potion?

           system.run(() => {
               block.dimension.spawnEntity("eidolon:healing_potion", { x, y, z });
           block.setPermutation(block.permutation.withState('eidolon:brazier', 9));
          });
           }

[fallow rivet]

Is it possible to test if a player has opened an entity?

For example, a player opens a chest in Minecraft

[round bone]

PlayerInteractWithEntity/PlayerInteractWithBlock

both have their listener variants in before (read-only) and after (regular) events

for chests, there is a sample

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

world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe((eventData) => {
    const { player, block } = eventData;

    if (block.typeId === "minecraft:chest") {
        // code for player that is interacting with a chest
        return;
    };
});

[fallow rivet]

So is it possible to test the closing of the entity?

[round bone]

some NPC interaction or what do you mean?

[fallow rivet]

Chest minecart

Ui Open and close

[round bone]

you can't really detect if player has close some inventory atm

[fallow rivet]

This is sad

[bold lily]

how i can create a block instance?

[wary edge]

You can't, kind of. You'll have to call a method that returns a Block class.

[bold lily]

alr ty

[scarlet sable]

oh

[uncut fjord]

is there a way to add an argument to a custom component for a block?

[alpine ibex]

Anybody online lol

[wary edge]

No. Use block tags.

[uncut fjord]

Kk

[alpine ibex]

Are there anyway to add interaction to mobs?

      "minecraft:interact": {
        "interactions": {
          "on_interact": {
            "target": "self",
            "filters": {
              "test": "has_tag",
              "operator": "=",
              "value": "slayer"
            },
            "event": "bossfight"
          }
        }
      },

This doesn't work

[wary edge]

Just use the playerBeforeInteractWithEntity?

[alpine ibex]

Nvm I'll stay on no script

[wary edge]

Then please use #1067869022273667152

[dim tusk]

Yey, I'm the 100k message

[granite badger]

Hey @dim tusk, can you check if your list of docs issue is included in here? https://github.com/JaylyDev/scriptapi-docs/issues/

[dim tusk]

some yes

the example for awaitTicks() it's awaitTick() without s

[granite badger]

That’s fixed

[dim tusk]

I guess yes? imma just check some of my screenshots if any

[dim tusk]

the after events of playerEmote

the example used emoteId instead of personaPieceId

[granite badger]

filed a bug on that

[tidal wasp]

Can you set multiple different states with one setPermutation

[charred gorge]

Yes

[warm mason]

block.setPermutation(BlockPermutation.resolve(block.typeId, {
  "name": "value",
  "name2": "value"
}))

[chrome flint]

how do i spawn a structure again?

[somber cedar]

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server.StructureManager.html#example-placeteststructurejs

[chrome flint]

oh its under the world, i thought it was from dimension

thanks

[acoustic basin]

hey guys! so i'm using Poggy's template for double plant, and for some reason, just modified, registration of custom component, beforeOnPlayerPlace doesnt trigger, only onPlayerDestroy works, any clues y?

world.beforeEvents.worldInitialize.subscribe(initEvent => {
    initEvent.blockComponentRegistry.registerCustomComponent('v360:double_plant', {
        beforeOnPlayerPlace({block, permutationToPlace, cancel}) {
            const above = block.above()
            if (!above.isAir) {
                cancel === true
                return
            }
            above.setPermutation(permutationToPlace.withState('v360:double_plant', 'upper_bit'))
        },
        onPlayerDestroy({ block, destroyedBlockPermutation }) {
            const below = block.below()
            if (below.typeId === destroyedBlockPermutation.type.id)
                below.setType('minecraft:air')
        }
    })
})```

[dim tusk]

don't destruct when canceling

that's why poggy didn't destruct it because the cancellation won't work.

[acoustic basin]

aaaaaa

[dim tusk]

also that's not how you set a value. It's always =

[acoustic basin]

i didnt know it wouldn't work y destructing

[dim tusk]

=== is comparing

[acoustic basin]

so i should make index file and everything exactly like in the template?

[dim tusk]

what are you trying to do in the first place?

[acoustic basin]

double plant

[dim tusk]

I mean, can't you just copy the component ID on every block?

[acoustic basin]

like, 1 single custom component for all blocks that have custom components?

[wary edge]

Destructuring bad.

[dim tusk]

yeah

[acoustic basin]

i ahvent thought of that

[dim tusk]

tho it depends if you want those blocks to have a plant thingy

[acoustic basin]

and if being honest, idk what destructuring means in scripting

[wary edge]

Custom compoments are supposed to be reused by multiple items/blocks.

[acoustic basin]

i have 1 custom component, v360:double_plant for all of my double plants

[dim tusk]

https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_destructuring.asp

[acoustic basin]

i did everything according to the template, but beforeOnPlayerPlace still doesnt work, only onPlayerDestroy works

i cant understand what am i doing wrong

[wary edge]

Did you register it in your block? Any content log?

[acoustic basin]

yes, it is registered

since onPlayerDestroy works

[wary edge]

Ohhhh nvm. Youre doing === true not cancel = true

[acoustic basin]

no i already changed it

just copy-pasted template code

[wary edge]

No idea. Open a post then with your updated code. Are you using an item proxy?

[acoustic basin]

and the upper bit is not getting placed, and the event is not getting canceled when there's a block above the plant

[dim tusk]

try doing console.error()

[acoustic basin]

oh

right

its probably broken with item

i have an item block placer...

nice mojang

[wary edge]

Tada.

[dim tusk]

It doesn't work on them btw

[acoustic basin]

https://tenor.com/view/chao-sonic-chao-baby-crying-tantrum-gif-25729225

okey... itemUseOn...

thank u anyway guys

[prisma shard]

hi everyone

[woven loom]

hi

[wheat helm]

system.runInterval(() => {
  world.getDimension("overworld").getEntities({
    location: {
      x: 508, y: 75, z: 15
    },
    volume: {
      x: 0, y: 0, z: 0
    }
  }).forEach(e => {
    e.runCommandAsync("say in block")
  })
})```

How do I change this to only get entities who are standing exactly inside of the block location, and not entities who are only touching the blocks.

(Currently when placing a block at the defined location, and you stand on top of it/next to it it will detect it as if you're standing inside of it)

In addition, I also want it to work with a wider volume (e.g. volume.x = 10) which means using maxDistance instead of volume will not work

[shut citrus]

https://youtu.be/q-zxdI8aqz8?si=jMM3q9Djm2HOTJwr

Can I do it with scripting now?

[chilly fractal]

Yo

[chilly fractal]

No one?

Really?

It's just concept

Not even code

[thorn flicker]

be patient

[untold magnet]

mhm, is it possible to make the fishing time faster using scripts && vanilla fishing rods ?

[thorn flicker]

no

[untold magnet]

f

anyways

[untold magnet]

im looking for good ideas for the fisherman hat,

[chilly fractal]

Trying to be

But

I haven't really slept the last 2 days

Kinda

[thorn flicker]

why

[chilly fractal]

I am operating from yesterday's sleep

[chilly fractal]

Because the code doesn't wanna work

And i have a deadline

[chilly fractal]

(Which was around 3 hours of sleep)

[deep arrow]

Based

[chilly fractal]

How am i based

[deep arrow]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[chilly fractal]

Okay then

Have a great day

[thorn flicker]

people say based to anything

[deep arrow]

Indeed

Mainly to relatable things

Anyways im bored so im joining this convo

[chilly fractal]

Cool

[deep arrow]

Whats going on yall

[chilly fractal]

Does anyone wanna help?

With concept

[deep arrow]

With?

[wary edge]

Please don't go fishing for help.

Seriously.

[chilly fractal]

Nah dude

Just

Someone is bored

[wary edge]

It really isn't our responsibility that you have a deadline.

[deep arrow]

Yo sup smokey

[chilly fractal]

I know, I'm sorry

But nathan is bored and wants to join this convo so i decided why not

Anyway, i kinda wanna send data across addons but securely

[deep arrow]

I believe his point is your just fishing from the channel specifically not me

[deep arrow]

Thats a bit hard too do

[chilly fractal]

Nahnah it isnt

I got good encryption

It isn't cryptographic

But its pretty good

You have to decrypt with an encrypted api key

My problem is

The api key is sent with the command in the /scriptevent command

Which means even if you didn't decrypt

Any other addon can just reconstruct the command and call the api of the main addon

And get the response

[deep arrow]

Look into http encryption and you can use the same public and private key systems

[chilly fractal]

Kk thanks

I really appreciate it

[valid ice]

I would suggest server admin secrets, but that doesn’t seem to work well here

[deep arrow]

Tbh i dont even know how those work XD

Never looked into them

[chilly fractal]

I'll look into those too

Thanks also!

[deep arrow]

Also realistically who gains anything from this?

[chilly fractal]

No one...

[valid ice]

Just variables that aren’t shared or defined in the main code- they’re in a separate file, and are interpreted when the code is ran. Good for stuff like passwords and the like

[deep arrow]

Realistically theirs no reason to encrypt things like that, because the normal player cant access script events let alone read them or modify addons within a world

Complex ipc doesnt need such encryption atm tell it become more radicalized

And becomes more common

[deep arrow]

Oh sick, also i heard that their is like such things to steal scripts from servers is that real?

Is that like why you'd use that

[valid ice]

Never heard of it

[deep arrow]

I've heard of it but it doesnt seem possible

[valid ice]

It’s mainly for if you have other people editing your addons and don’t want your sensitive information available to them

[deep arrow]

Since nothing related to them should be sent to clients

[deep arrow]

Ahh figured

[valid ice]

Like, your login information for a voting site, say, so you can tally votes. You have your password & email as secrets, so then the other coders can just call the secrets vote_email or something without ever seeing the real email address

[deep arrow]

Ahh i should incorporate that to my firebase api later then

Is the actual data just stored in a json somewhere in the server files?

[valid ice]

Note that it’s only available on BDS, because you need to define the variables in a separate file (which is only available on BDS)

[deep arrow]

I wonder if it reads irt

[deep arrow]

Do you know if it does?

[valid ice]

What’s irt

[deep arrow]

In Real Time

My bad

[valid ice]

You can’t set any data to the secrets, if that’s what you’re looking for

Just read

[deep arrow]

I was more thinking of external programs modifying the file

[valid ice]

Hmm, that may be possible, given that it’s just a file

Never tested it, so

Hell, I’ve never used the secrets regardless, so

[deep arrow]

I might test it later and see if it modifies in real time

[deep arrow]

Lmao same

[valid ice]

By chance, does your firebase do cross-server communication (e.g. a ban database that can be accessed across multiple servers)?

[deep arrow]

Mine?

[valid ice]

The API thing you mentioned

[deep arrow]

Oh yeh

It does

[valid ice]

I’m just looking for something that communicates cross server for global network management

[deep arrow]

It doesnt cache anything so everything is read irt, which kinda slows it down

But im planning on a v2 that has a ttl system

[valid ice]

Neato

[deep arrow]

The api is very minimal tho just set and get lol

[deep arrow]

Do u want the git link? Btw

[valid ice]

Sure!

[deep arrow]

https://github.com/Nathan93705/BlockBase/tree/main
from last i tested speeds are roughly 100-140ms to get data (its a bit slow but for an external db its neat)

I also plan on minifying v2 into 1 file

[valid ice]

I’ll take a look later, thanks 🙏

[daring prawn]

hello, how can I store integer value in block

[deep arrow]

Wym

[valid ice]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/reference/content/blockreference/examples/blockstatesandpermutations?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

[daring prawn]

i have energy pipe that store energy and i want to store how much power it contains

[deep arrow]

Also idk if its worth it but it might be faster, if you run all the servers on local network, you can host your own database such as mysql, and have a nodejs webserver act as a communicator taking http requests from the addons and interacting with the databse

It would most likely be faster than firebase since its ran locally

[valid ice]

Yeah, I'm hosting through a third party service, so

Would love to self host but I don't have the resources to do so

[untold magnet]

it is possible to detect when the player shoots an arrow using a bow right?

[wary edge]

Yes.

[untold magnet]

which component?
itemCompleteUse?

[thorn flicker]

not component

and its itemReleaseUse

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

[untold magnet]

it shouldn't detect spam clicking right?

[thorn flicker]

it will.

[untold magnet]

alright ty

[thorn flicker]

but you can check for the use duration with the useDuration property

[untold magnet]

ya i see

[chilly fractal]

I see

The 26th time probably we reached 100k messages

This is funny lol

[warm drum]

cant script access lootable?

[wary edge]

Only via runCommand.

[warm drum]

weird

they should support it

[deep arrow]

screw it, im bored imma make reverse geyser, add java to bedrock

[dim tusk]

what is that?

-# I'm clueless asf

[slow walrus]

geyser is a protocol translator, it lets bedrock players join java servers

[dim tusk]

ahhh...

    });
});```

I need the sheep to always see the player, but this command doesn't work. Does anyone know how to do this?

[fervent topaz]

do u know how to give them propertys

[knotty plaza]

Entity properties have to be predefined first on their json files

That means you would have to edit player.json

[covert goblet]

folks, is it best to use playerPlaceBlock or itemUse when tracking the blocks a player places?? they both work i was jsut wondering on peoples preferences??

[knotty plaza]

That depends, but I think its better you use playerPlaceBlock

itemUse can fire even if the block was not successfully placed

[covert goblet]

it certainlky does seem more concise, plus the PlaceBlock does expose the block item

[trail marten]

is there a way to get player's locale (language)?

and maybe possibly get a translated string based on the key in the lang locale file

[thorn flicker]

there's rawMessage

https://stirante.com/script/server/1.16.0/interfaces/RawMessage.html

[trail marten]

AH

okay thanks

[thorn flicker]

not everything supports it though

like item lore

[trail marten]

im trying to apply it on server body forms

from

- get.HouseKey
- get.ActionHouse

to

- Get a house key
- Get a house.

hmmmm...

[thorn flicker]

it supports rawMessage

[trail marten]

yes

[trail marten]

you know what imma make my own language system (not based on player's current selected locale)

[scarlet sable]

my storage keeps running out while live editing addons

where does all of this data come from?

and how do I free it back

[wary edge]

Your content log?

[scarlet sable]

what file?

nvm

45 gb lmao

[scarlet sable]

ty btw

[noble bolt]

turn off content log file

u probably dont need it

[scarlet sable]

how do I link a variable in teh behavior pack with an element in the resource pack?

[chilly fractal]

Use entity properties

(You are gonna need to edit the player.json file tho)

[scarlet sable]

ahhh I see

[chilly fractal]

But here is how to link it:
player.setProperty('namespace:dangImLinked', true);

Also

Tip

It will not work on simulated players

[empty light]

is there a way to modify blocks before they load in the game....

[chilly fractal]

Uh no

[empty light]

ass

[chilly fractal]

Probably not

[empty light]

i have this idea in my head

and i want it

but i have to modify every block in the world

[chilly fractal]

Elaborate

You actually might be able to do it but

[empty light]

well basically, the thought is to have all blocks in the world be barries, and they turn back to their normal form once the player interacts with them

[chilly fractal]

Uh

Yeah thats kinda

Not very performant

[empty light]

so every single damn block would need its id stored

YEAHHH I FIGURED

[chilly fractal]

You can pre do this

[empty light]

any ideas?

[chilly fractal]

Yeah

Here let me make a code

[empty light]

!!!

[chilly fractal]

Snippet

[empty light]

what a kind young man

😭

i really just need a toggleable way to make blocks invisible

[scarlet sable]

btw was there an update to the manifest file?

I'm having a hard time getting my pack detected

[chilly fractal]

Nah, just make sure you have the correct version tho

[scarlet sable]

what's the latest?

[empty light]

im so lost on how to do this i thought this would be way easier just not performant

[chilly fractal]

@minecraft/server => 17.0.0-beta
@minecraft/server-ui => 1.4.0-beta

[chilly fractal]

Nah its not easy and certainly not performant but i am trying to use my knowledge

[empty light]

i really appreciate your help/input

[chilly fractal]

Here

It isn't complete and won't save stuff like inventory, you have to make a serializer and deserializer for those. And also i dont actually set the block back when you interact with it because thats also complicated, and also this doesn't really manage ticking areas or does it go far. It just loops in the 50 by 50 range around all players and does it's thing. Implement that logic and you should be good to go.

[deep arrow]

Whats going on yall

[scarlet sable]

do you have a manifest I can see?

idk what's the problem with mine

[chilly fractal]

All good, implemented that https encryption protocol.

[chilly fractal]

Sure

[oblique birch]

my recipies keep overlapping when I scroll in the crafting table; anyone know a fix for this?

[chilly fractal]

#1067869374410657962

[oblique birch]

Appreciate it thxs

[deep arrow]

Oh neat im doing the same thing i was yesterday too lol

[scarlet sable]

ty

[tender ocean]

i have your same issue, ever found a fix?

[scarlet sable]

nvm

what is @minecraft/server-ui btw?

never seen it before

[valid ice]

Allows for intractable, customizable forms created by the user

[chilly fractal]

Ah cool

[scarlet sable]

ohh

is it a new thing?

[valid ice]

Been around since 1.19.50 or so

[deep arrow]

Remaking a java server in typescript is interesting tho lmao

[somber cedar]

@granite badger why are there blank squares in your docs

[unique dragon]

publicity

xd

[scarlet sable]

I see

[scarlet sable]

ad block

[somber cedar]

i disabled ad block and it acts the same

now it disappears

[granite badger]

I accidently pushed empty div elements from prototype code

[deep arrow]

Lol

[chilly fractal]

Good luck to you lol

[deep arrow]

Indeed but it's for the sake of java joining bedrock

[chilly fractal]

I wonder what you'll achieve in the end

I wanna try it out lol

[deep arrow]

Its not on vanilla sadly lol

Im developing it as a plugin on SerenityJS

So far i got cross chat working and im working on chunkloading rn

[scarlet sable]

isSprinting is true or false right?

[chilly fractal]

Ah sad..

Well best of luck to you!

[chilly fractal]

Yeah

[scarlet sable]

ty

[scarlet sable]

this is script is really cool

it's very clear

[scarlet sable]

function thirst(){
  if(system.currentTick %20 === 0){
  const playerCount = world.getAllPlayers();
  playerCount.forEach(player => {
     const state = player.isSprinting;
     if(state === true){
      world.sendMessage("player is sprinting");
     }
     world.sendMessage("player is not sprinting");
  }
)
system.run(thirst)
  }
system.run(thirst);
} 

mb

[scarlet sable]

this in theory should work?

[dim tusk]

what are you trying to do?

tho why bother making a delay if there's a built-in delay in runtInterval?

[scarlet sable]

Just trying to detect when a player is sprinting

[scarlet sable]

Ye just forgot to remove it

[dim tusk]

system.runInterval(() => {
   for (const player of world.getPlayers()) {
      if (player.isSprinting) {
         // ...
      }
   }
});```

as simple as this

[neat hound]

try to space that out a few ticks... like 5

[scarlet sable]

But I want each player to have a set of variables later

[dim tusk]

what?

[scarlet sable]

Basically this is the start of thirst system

[distant tulip]

that what he was trying to do here
system.currentTick %20 === 0
-# i think?

[dim tusk]

What I'm confused about is what variable

use dynamic property or an object variable

each player has thirst data saved?

const thirst = {};
thirst[player.id] { duration: 10 };

const thirst = JSON.parse(player.getDynamicProperty('thirst') || '{}');
thirst.duration = 10;
player.setDynamicProperty('thirst', JSON.stringify(thirst));```

[scarlet sable]

So dynamic property allows to store data for each player separately?

[dim tusk]

Yah and it's saved even if the player left

[scarlet sable]

Oh nice

[dim tusk]

tho you can't access if the player isn't in the world obviously

[scarlet sable]

i thought I had to make like a system that creates a var for each player

[dim tusk]

It is not saved if the player left

so yeah, not a good idea

[scarlet sable]

Yep now that I think about it

It was a dead end

[dim tusk]

const thirst = JSON.parse(player.getDynamicProperty('thirst') || '{}');
thirst.duration = 10;
player.setDynamicProperty('thirst', JSON.stringify(thirst));```

[scarlet sable]

Whats Json.parse tho?

[sharp elbow]

It is a native function in JavaScript that takes a string and parses it as JSON. The resulting value is an object you can manipulate

[dim tusk]

JSON. parse() is used for parsing data that was received as JSON; it deserializes a JSON string into a JavaScript object. JSON. stringify() on the other hand is used to create a JSON string out of an object or array; it serializes a JavaScript object into a JSON string.

[scarlet sable]

Ahhh

That's so cool

[sharp elbow]

const InJSON = '{"key":"value"}';
const Obj = JSON.parse(InJSON);
console.warn(Obj.key);  // "value"

[scarlet sable]

So obj became an object with the InJson's elements inside?

[sharp elbow]

Yea, you could think of it that way

[scarlet sable]

Mhm that's useful

Ty guys

[olive rapids]

Can someone help me create a script that makes a sound sound when I touch a block?

please

[olive rapids]

and add a score to a scoreboard

sound and add score

[distant tulip]

define "touch a block"

[scarlet sable]

Walk on?

[scarlet sable]

Ye lol

[olive rapids]

touch a block with my character, or when I am near a block

[scarlet sable]

Like from all sides?

[deep arrow]

Near and touch are very different

[distant tulip]

walk on it? interact with it? like a cactus?

[deep arrow]

Cactus doesnt do anything when u interact with it?

[olive rapids]

I am creating a Pacman map, and the balls that are eaten are blocks, so I want a script that does that function, that when you touch the block, or are close to it, it makes a sound and adds a score to the scoreboard

[deep arrow]

I'd personally just recommend making entities

[scarlet sable]

Command blocks can do that I think

[olive rapids]

yeah , but it better with script

commands slow

[olive rapids]

I use a block but it passes through, it is not concrete or solid.

[distant tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/get-out-of-here-gif-22726909

[deep arrow]

Oh you coukd just detect if the block at the player's location is that block

[deep arrow]

Crazy

[scarlet sable]

Real

[distant tulip]

lol

give me sec, i will make something

[dim tusk]

that's the funny part, why ask in scripts if they can do it on commands? 🤷

[olive rapids]

😦

[distant tulip]

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

const checkInterval = 10; //run every 10 ticks
const r = 0.4; //radius to check for blocks, adjust it until it make sense
const targetBlock = "minecraft:gold_block"; //block to detect
const soundEffect = "random.orb"; //sound to play

system.runInterval(() => {
    for (const player of world.getAllPlayers()) {
        const { x, y, z } = player.location;
        
        //scan a small area around the player
        for (let dx = -r; dx <= r; dx++) {
            for (let dy = -r; dy <= r; dy++) {
                for (let dz = -r; dz <= r; dz++) {
                    const block = player.dimension.getBlock({ x: x + dx, y: y + dy, z: z + dz });

                    if (block && block.typeId === targetBlock) {
                        player.playSound(soundEffect);
                        return;
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}, checkInterval);

i think it is better to hard code the places to check (8 dir around the player feet, 8 around the head, up and below), but i don't have time to make that

[olive rapids]

thank u so muchhh

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[distant tulip]

ur wlc

it is passed midnight, time to get some sleep

good night guys 👋

[scarlet sable]

Btw why block and Block.typeId?

Isn't block.typeId enough?

[thorn flicker]

should use getBlocks

blockVolume is out of beta.

[distant tulip]

it is beta

[thorn flicker]

its not

[distant tulip]

it is

[scarlet sable]

https://tenor.com/view/michael-jackson-comendo-picoca-gif-9669437860846841235

[thorn flicker]

I literally just used it in my stable script.

[wary edge]

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

[distant tulip]

my npm is outdated 😅🤦‍♂️

[distant tulip]

yeah, you should add a try catch tho, that function can throw errors

[scarlet sable]

Oh I see

[thorn flicker]

[oblique heath]

Is getBlocks out of beta yet?

[olive rapids]

.-.

[thorn flicker]

troll

[distant tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/ratatouille-remy-i-will-get-you-next-time-gif-14528446

[oblique heath]

not trolling

[distant tulip]

read?

[thorn flicker]

if you are not trolling...

read

scroll up

to be fair I said blockVolume was out of beta, not getBlocks

[oblique heath]

sorry I saw block volume and thought about getBlocks

[thorn flicker]

it is

[oblique heath]

I haven't touched scripting api in a few months

[thorn flicker]

out of beta

both are

[oblique heath]

nice

[thorn flicker]

blockVolume came out of beta before getBlocks

[oblique heath]

when did it come out of beta?

[distant tulip]

if getBlocks is stable that mean the other way around too

[thorn flicker]

well yeah, getBlocks couldnt become stable if blockVolume wasnt

doesnt make sense

[distant tulip]

yep

[thorn flicker]

not that long ago, recently. Im not sure which update

[wary edge]

Well...i think some events were marked stable but the listeners were marked beta.

[thorn flicker]

ive seen people talk about that

didn't it confuse people on documentation

[olive rapids]

One question, what do you think of those people who steal maps from other creators and nodify them?

[olive rapids]

The block I use can be transferred without problems, I mean it is not solid, there is no problem, right? the script will work anyway

[fallen hearth]

how do i get the namespace of the item that is in my hand?

[dim tusk]

console.error(ItemStack?.typeId)

[fallen hearth]

    case 'blc:teste':
      const itemName = player.itemStack?.typeId
      player.runCommandAsync(`say ${itemName}`)
      break;

undefined

[dim tusk]

No, you need to get the slot first

where are you using it?

[fallen hearth]

It worked here, thanks

[sterile epoch]

how do i remove the "you have been kicked" like on the hive when someone gets banned

[fallen hearth]

@dim tusk I'm managing to return the entity ID, but I want to remove "minecraft:cow" and leave just cow

How can I do this?

[dim tusk]

String.replace('minecraft:', '');```

[fallen hearth]

      let itemName = selectedItem?.typeId
      itemName = String.replace('minecraft:', '');

?

[dim tusk]

change the String with the itemName

[fallen hearth]

nice!

thankys friendy

[celest abyss]

How can I detect when an entity is in the same position as the player?

system.runInterval(() => {
  let players = world.getAllPlayers()
  for (let player of players) {
    if (player.dimension.getEntities({ x: player.location.x, y: player.location.y, z: player.location.z }).typeId == 'entity:entity') {
//code

This doesn't work

[valid ice]

getEntities returns an array, not a single entity

[wary edge]

getEntities returns an array of Entity.

[valid ice]

^

[wary edge]

I was 500ms slow.

[celest abyss]

Oh

So what should I use?

getEntitiesAtBlockLocation

This?

[wary edge]

That still returns an Array. You need to loop through it.

[dim tusk]

As what they said it's an array.

like how you do the getAllPlayers()

[sterile epoch]

is an average tps of 19.84 good?

I was calculating my tps and it kept bouncing between 19.70-20.20 I'm not sure if this is a good sign or not? should my tps be consistently above 20 or is fluctuations below 20 okay?

[fallen hearth]

What is getLore() for?

[dim tusk]

check the list of lores of the items?

[fallen hearth]

like this?

[dim tusk]

It returns an array of lores

[fallen hearth]

what is lores?

[dim tusk]

when you hover the time in inventory there's a little purple thingy

[fallen hearth]

attack damage?

[dim tusk]

just search it lol

[fallen hearth]

okay

thankys

[celest abyss]

can you modify a players speed with script without using the speed effect?

[charred gorge]

Yes you can modify the players movement attribute, just note that you will need to do it constantly as any manually changes in speed ie: sneaking or sprinting resets the value to the default.

[edgy elm]

can u write a code in game with modalFormData textfield?

[charred gorge]

What?

[edgy elm]

is it possible to run a code ingame with modalFormData? for example if u want to execute sending message or more complicated code like opening a form?

[trail marten]

idont know whats wrong with my script but everytime that i call getDynamicProperty() on a Player class, the game crashes

whats the actual proper way to handle it anyway

[charred gorge]

Yeah it should be, you should be able to set or get a property using object["text"]=test or to use a function object"text" I think that’s right be if not I can look through my addon that uses this to find syntax. Or incorporate the text into a function or other stuff using the variable.

[edgy elm]

@charred gorge If u have, maybe u could drop it here and mention me. This would be a great help for me. Cause I've been planning to update my addons into importing the codes in game. Its like if I want to add new button. Ill just inport the code in game.

[charred gorge]

No I don’t have the function that you are looking for, I was just showing you how to execute a function/property using text you’re going to need to code it yourself. I was referring to my own code which I can show you parts if you want; however it probably won’t be a ton of help though, my code in parts does what you are doing but has a pile of other aspects.

[misty pivot]

how do i use the variables from molangVariableMap in my particle's json?

i used v.example_name.speed but nothing really happened

[dim tusk]

send your particle.json and script

[misty pivot]

hold up a sec

const dash = new MolangVariableMap();
player.dimension.spawnParticle("dby:dash_manual", {x: player.location.x, y: player.location.y + 1.2, z: player.location.z}, dash.setSpeedAndDirection("particle", 0.1, player.getViewDirection()))```

in game it would fly off very fast and face a random direction

[dim tusk]

try manually setting them.

[misty pivot]

how so?

[dim tusk]

Change the 0.1

[misty pivot]

alright lemme try

it did send me these errors

[Molang][error]-particles/dash_manual.particle.json | v.particle.speed | Error: unable to find member variable .speed

[Molang][error]-particles/dash_manual.particle.json | v.particle.speed | Error: unhandled request for unknown variable '.speed'

[dim tusk]

try changing from particle to a different name

It might be sensitive that's why

[misty pivot]

it didn't work, i changed the particle to dash

[dim tusk]

Did you use snowstorm?

[misty pivot]

yep

[chilly fractal]

Yo hol up

I haven't messed with velocity in scripting api for a whilr

While*

Would a good'ol player.getVelocity() work?

Perfect answer:
I'll test

[scarlet sable]

you can use forEach to loop it

[dim tusk]

get the whole velocity?

const velocity = player.getVelocity();

Math.sqrt(velocity.x ** 2 + velocity.y ** 2 + velocity.z ** 2);```

-# not sure if this is the right math lmfao... That's why I failed math

[distant tulip]

why? for of do the same, and can be better in some cases

[scarlet sable]

I like the syntax of ofEach lol

also how could for be better?

[distant tulip]

@celest abyss btw
{ x: player.location.x, y: player.location.y, z: player.location.z }
player.location is already a vector3
so just use it directly

[scarlet sable]

btw what you did here is:
you made an empty object
parsed it
gave it a key and value
then stringfied it and stored it for a player right?

[distant tulip]

it is faster and work for lot of types
Array Map String Objects and so on

[scarlet sable]

it's better even for arrays?

interesting

[distant tulip]

yeah

[scarlet sable]

btw is this the right understanding?

[distant tulip]

yeah

[dim tusk]

hmm

ngl you scared me

[distant tulip]

but why not just store the number directly

[dim tusk]

he said before he wants to store an object so that's why I gave that to him

[scarlet sable]

how? xD

[scarlet sable]

btw are custom effects possible?

[dim tusk]

No.

[scarlet sable]

that sucks

[scarlet sable]

system.runInterval(() => {
  for(const player of world.getAllPlayers()){
const thirst = JSON.parse(player.getDynamicProperty('thirst') || {})
thirst.hydration = 100;
if (player.isSprinting === true){
  thirst.hydration -= 1;
}

player.setDynamicProperty('thirst', JSON.stringify(thirst));

}
world.sendMessage(thirst.hydration)
}, 40)

is this syntax correct?

nvm I forgot the ' at '{}'

[scarlet sable]

how do I detect when a player eats a certain type of food?

[charred gorge]

I think that one of the events detects that itemCompleteUse maybe and then you just check what item was used in the interaction.

[wary edge]

The issue is the item disappears after you complete use.

[scarlet sable]

world.afterEvents.itemUse.subscribe((event) => {
  const { itemStack, source: player } = event;

  // Prevents errors if something weird happens
  if (!player || !itemStack) return;

  player.sendMessage(`You used: ${itemStack.typeId}`);
});

I tried this

but it causes multiple detections

and I doubt it would work with a filter

and even if I don't finish the interaction it counts as a complete one

[scarlet sable]

update: it's all working now

[cinder shadow]

If you're in creative, for whatever reason interactions that don't fully use the item have a chance to repeat

I noticed this when I was working with potions

same thing happens with food

[deep arrow]

I wonder if anyone had made a physics engine with script api

[woven loom]

what you mean by that ?

why would anyone make a physics engine that works at the rate of 20 times / s
🤔

[scarlet sable]

nah it was because I had the subscribe inside the runInterval

so it would subscribe multiple time's in the same interaction

[distant gulch]

How do I get an entities inventory because people say to use getComponent('minecraft: inventory').container but it doesn't pop up on the bridge auto completions

[distant gulch]

People have

[scarlet sable]

can you send your script?

[dim tusk]

Thats a very bad idea

[distant gulch]

It's literally nothing besides a custom component with me getting the source entity then adding get component with the inventory but their is no auto completion for container or inventory

[dim tusk]

Yeah that's correct

that's how you get it...

[distant gulch]

It doesn't show up on the bridge auto completion tho

[scarlet sable]

yep I figured it out the hard way lmao

[dim tusk]

That doesn't mean it doesn't exist

Don't ALWAYS trust bridge

[dim tusk]

you want that if you long press it still run a command not just once?

[distant gulch]

I don't know anything about it so how could I do it without any auto completions

[dim tusk]

you can just make the item usable or eatable and use startUse and stopUse

[distant gulch]

I'm not just gonna do what I do with Roblox scripts and blind eye my code

[dim tusk]

Are you that lazy to at least search the docs?

[scarlet sable]

nah I fixed it dw

I used the completeUse

[distant gulch]

I do but they still don't make sense to me because I'm very NEW to script API

[dim tusk]

fair enough but as I said what you did is correct

that's how you get the inventory

[distant gulch]

Bro

WHY DOESN'T IT SHOW ON THE AUTO COMPLETIONS

[dim tusk]

don't sweat it too much

It maybe not updated

[distant gulch]

How when I'm literally trying to make something that's important in my mods function but I can't because I can't find the auto completions which makes it way harder for me because I have to keep going back and forth looking at different things

And plus I'M CODING ON XBOX WHICH MAKES IT EVEN HARDER

[dim tusk]

i mean it kinda depends on person, I'm literally in a phone and I perform fine

[dim tusk]

you install bridge on Xbox?

[distant gulch]

No I use the website duh

[dim tusk]

Ohh sorry if I ask since there's an app version of it 🤷

[distant gulch]

Ik

Used to use VSCode but my laptop broke so I can't anymore

That's why I think VSCode is way better than bridge in every way

I had 6 years of experience on VSCode and now I can't use it anymore

[distant gulch]

And it obviously has been updated they update the auto completions almost every time Minecraft updates, it USED to have the auto completions for it working but NOW it doesn't for SOME reason and why TH does the changelogs say "changed from string to T" WTH IS T

[scarlet sable]

@distant gulch you're making a custom container?

[distant gulch]

No?

Custom Block Component

[distant tulip]

coding on Xbox???

[distant gulch]

Yes?

[distant tulip]

is that a thing

[distant gulch]

If you wanna pay 3$ then yes

[distant tulip]

isn't it better to use your phone

[distant gulch]

No

Xbox has better performance

In my case

[distant tulip]

alr

[distant gulch]

To even get mods on Xbox you have to still spend that 3$

It was on sale for like 0.79$ before

But I bought it when it was 3$

[distant tulip]

free apps don't stick for long

[distant gulch]

There's a free trial for it

For 24 hours

I used to keep creating Microsoft accounts to use it before I actually bought it

[scarlet sable]

What will it do?

[distant gulch]

When you click on the block without anything in your mainhand that's all it will detect

It's for my keycard reader but I made a separate script from the actual key card reader script so it wouldn't take up more

Needs to soley only detect when you're holding NOTHING

Because other items/blocks already activate the "Keycard Level num+ required" and the empty mainhand doesn't because it detects when an item is being used on it

[sweet seal]

world.beforeEvents.playerLeave.subscribe(ev => {
    const player = ev.player;
    let combatEndTime = player.getDynamicProperty("combatTime");

    if (combatEndTime && Date.now() < combatEndTime && player.hasTag("pvp")) {
        system.run(() => {
        world.sendMessage(`${player.name} combat logged`);
        player.addTag("combat_logged");
        playerLeaveInCombat(player);
        })
    }
});

failed to get property 'nane' at anonymous

[valid ice]

Player becomes invalid once they leave- and a system run delaying the code by a tick makes it run after the player has left.

[sweet seal]

how can I fix

[valid ice]

Define the player name before using it (outside the system run)z

And you cannot add a tag or run that function

[sweet seal]

is their anyway I could make this work

anti combat log systm

[untold magnet]

hmm, is it possible to make my entity look at the player using scripts?
like getting the player from view distance, and somehow applying rotation to the entity to make it look directly at the player,

[scarlet sable]

I've seen something similar with block entities

With just command blocks

Probably possible

[untold magnet]

i can do applyRotation something to make the entity rotate, but I'm trying to understand how to do it exactly.

[dim tusk]

get the direction vector of entity location and the target locations

I mean subtract them

function faceTarget(e, t) {
    const dx = t.x - e x, dy = t.y - e.y, dz = t.z - e z;
    const yaw = Math.atan2(-dx, dz) * 180 / Math.PI;
    const pitch = Math.atan2(dy, Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dz * dz)) * 180 / Math.PI;
    e.applyRotation({ x: yaw, y: pitch });
}```

[scarlet sable]

what's yaw and pitch?

[fast lark]

Hi yall

I dont remember how can i take a item in a placed shulker box(slot 2)

let 2 = ???

[dim tusk]

const inventory = Block.getComponent('inventory')?.container;
const item = inventory.getItem(2);```

[fast lark]

And if i want to know if the item is enchanted and with what?

[dim tusk]

It returns an ItemStack, just do getComponent('enchantable')

[fast lark]

Okay thx

Can i ask something else?

[dim tusk]

you can do hasEnchantment(), getEnchantment() or getEnchantments()

[dim tusk]

ye?

[dim tusk]

search internet...

[fast lark]

Is it possible to give a person a shulker box pre loaded without structure block?

[dim tusk]

nope...

[fast lark]

Sad

[dim tusk]

best way is to place a shulker box then put items and so Block.getItemStack()

you can get the items Inside

[fast lark]

Too much work

[dim tusk]

I mean if you don't want structure yes

either way it's your choice

[fast lark]

Thx

[scarlet sable]

how do I randomize an action?

like instead of a monotone -1 operation from a var it could do -1 or -2

[scarlet sable]

again it was done with Math.random

[untold magnet]

i, will just make it block not entity,
less issues, less bugs, less lag, good for my brain health

hm, is it possible to detect catching a fish or anything from the sea using a fishing rod?

[woven loom]

test

[woven loom]

entity remove event maybe

[deep yew]

but is a fish caught by a fishing rod considered an entity, or is fishing just an event that gives you a loot table?

[valid ice]

entity remove cuz the bobber

[deep yew]

but then you get the bobber

[valid ice]

maybe item use, then

[deep yew]

the item given is a physical item that gets pulled to you though....

that's probably how

[valid ice]

before item use-> scan & save inventory
after item use -> compare against before event's inventory to see changes (what was caught)

[deep yew]

was going to say that

but it has issues because of a player fishing, then picking up another item, then catching or not catching a fish and then it's a false positive

[valid ice]

[deep yew]

yeah idk

[valid ice]

The events would both run when they reel in

[deep yew]

ah true

[valid ice]

So you'd be comparing the inventories within a tick of each other or so

[deep yew]

so it's a split second

but that tick is possibly enough for the item to not reach the player

[valid ice]

That's for testing to figure out

[deep yew]

yep

and fish farms using hoppers or whatever could mess with it

so many factors

[valid ice]

The best course of action is to remake the fishing system from scratch

[deep yew]

world.afterEvents.playerCatchFish

[chrome flint]

does anyone have a db manager?

[fallow minnow]

a

[fallow minnow]

😉

[knotty plaza]

I would just listen for the fishing hook being removed and then the item being spawned in a certain range from that position

I remember doing a system for that but I don't remember in what part of my computer it is now

[chrome flint]

does block.above() returns air or undefined?

[untold magnet]

the only thing i am trying to do is add a low chance to get an extra fishing pool item when u catch something using the vanilla fishing rod, while equipping a custom hat.

[dim tusk]

It's always undefined if it's air

[distant tulip]

no?

[dim tusk]

in my case yeah I guess?

[distant tulip]

huh

[dim tusk]

huh?

[chrome flint]

oh okay, that's why lol

i gotta use .isAir() to detect air

[distant tulip]

uh... i just said no

[distant tulip]

Hi ae

[sage sparrow]

hi there, how can I find structures saved with structureManager? I mean, is it available in any folder that I can download? cannot find it

[granite badger]

It's saved in db folder like all structures

[noble bolt]

Hi

[sage sparrow]

and there is no way to extract it? any tool that can handle it or vscode itself with a plugin?

[granite badger]

try this https://github.com/destruc7i0n/extract-mcstructure/

[untold magnet]

thats so good, thanks for the help, i appreciate it but, is it random or sometimes it just doesn't work?

[distant tulip]

it didn't work for you?

brb

[untold magnet]

it doesn't send that log, sometimes

[untold magnet]

sometimes it works

sometimes it does not work

[distant tulip]

increase maxDistance: 1 and try?

[untold magnet]

it works perfectly fine now
maxDistance: 1 → maxDistance: 3

[distant tulip]

3 is a bit too much

[fallow rivet]

What's this?

[distant tulip]

read the messages for context?

[untold magnet]

2 sounds perfect

anyways,

for helping

hmm

[untold magnet]

wait, what if my friend is fishing and i was equipping the fisherman hat, my friend will get the extra drops without having to equip the hat, the script should get the player who is fishing to make it work only for him and make the loot spawn directly at him.

lemme send u the updated one.

world.beforeEvents.entityRemove.subscribe((event) => {
  const hook = event.removedEntity;
    if (hook.typeId === "minecraft:fishing_hook") {
        const loc = hook.location;
        const date = Date.now()
        const dimension = hook.dimension
        const { x, y, z } = hook.location
        const id = system.runInterval(() => {
          const id2 = system.runTimeout(()=>system.clearRun(id),20)

          const items = dimension.getEntities({type:"minecraft:item", location: loc, maxDistance: 2})
          for(const item of items){
            if(date - (itemSpawnDate.get(item)??0) < 100){
              if (fisherman_hat === true) if (Math.random() <= 0.1) dimension.runCommandAsync(`loot spawn ${x} ${y} ${z} loot "gameplay/fishing"`)
              system.clearRun(id)
              system.clearRun(id2)
              return
            }
          }
        });
    }
})```just help me make it work only at the player who is fishing and equipping the hat.

[slow walrus]

why don't you just subscribe to the spawnEvent inside the hook event?

it's a beforeevent, so the event listener should fire in the same tick

then it's easier to test items since you don't have to do that date map thing

[distant tulip]

yeah i guess that would be better

[distant tulip]

when the hook spawn tag it with the player id
or maybe the hook do have player as owner?
either way, it should be that hard to add

[untold magnet]

u can edit it freely,
cuz my scripts skill isn't that good on this section

[fast lark]

yo @dim tusk how can i return the id of the item with the shulker box thing

bc it dosent work

[granite badger]

i have to manually update the docs for v2.0.0-beta

[woven loom]

wonder what builder class is

[scarlet lynx]

That seems not so useful for basic creators.

[woven loom]

it is

from basic hello world to anything complex

[valid ice]

Knowing how script API 2 interacts with the world is pretty important

[granite badger]

[distant gulch]

Help please!

Same message with index.js ending

[woven loom]

plugins/index.js

you using dev packs?

[distant gulch]

yes

[covert goblet]

Your import Exec is looking for a file called plugins.js in the core directory

[distant gulch]

./modules/core/plugins/index.js

I changed

It itself replaces aliases with this path

there is no extension at the end, it should look for index.js itself

[distant gulch]

[lndrs@lndrs-pc bp]$ pwd
/home/lndrs/.var/app/io.mrarm.mcpelauncher/data/mcpelauncher/games/com.mojang/development_behavior_packs/bp

[covert goblet]

So are you saying there is a plugins.js file in the plugins directory??

[distant gulch]

The import doesn't say anything about the extension, it know that the index.js file should be inside this folder. But even after manually adding the index.js to path it doesn't change anything, it still doesn't want to use this file.

Everything starts working only after renaming all the index.js files in the project is for something else

like main.js

[covert goblet]

What does your manifest look like??

[distant gulch]

nvm fixed

[covert goblet]

Excellent news, what was it??

[distant gulch]

idk

I renamed all the index.js files to others and everything works

for some reason, after running the build task with tsc-alias, the code does not find files with the name index.js

[covert goblet]

Aaahhh......

Well glad you got it sorted!!!

[chrome flint]

how to make blocks items to be unstackable

[scarlet sable]

I think when you define a block you set max stack size

[chrome flint]

there's no max_size in blocks components, how is that?

you can make ur ui's conditional based on title

Yo

I am trying to make a foolproof way of detecting when someone lands

I kinda got the velocity of someone jumping.. aka (y = 0.42...)

player.getVelocity().y >= 0.42

But that still would flag for someone launched

Oh yeah right i can just increase the number and do some more operations

player.getVelocity().y < 0.43
For anyone wanting to detect when someone landed completely foolproof

I think at least

Kinda have been testing too much

I'm sure jumping and that jump swim in water are much less then 0.43

Jump is 0.42

And that "jump swim" is 0.34 i think

[prisma shard]

set max_size to 1 in the item json of the block

thats it
