Script API General

[distant tulip]

you can use my web editor for type completion :p
https://minato-mba.github.io/web-apps/web-editor.html

[amber granite]

._. no i mean i can't test it

To know if it works or not

[granite badger]

typescript debugger wen

[distant tulip]

-# i don't use typescript

maybe i will add that as a setting, 'language"

[granite badger]

mostly just want it to highlight syntax error, since js linting runs under ts nowadays

[sharp elbow]

Item swap is a ... curious approach

[amber granite]

:-: someone please retry my code :

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

world.beforeEvents.playerPlaceBlock.subscribe(({ block }) => { 
    if (block.type !== "minecraft:chest") return;

    let EastConnected = (
        block.east().permutation.getState("facing_direction") == block.permutation.getState("facing_direction") &&
        block.east().getComponent("inventory").container.size == 27 &&
        block.east().type == "minecraft:chest"
    ) ? true : false;

    let WestConnected = (
        block.west().permutation.getState("facing_direction") == block.permutation.getState("facing_direction") &&
        block.west().getComponent("inventory").container.size == 27 &&
        block.west().type == "minecraft:chest"
    ) ? true : false;

    if (EastConnected || WestConnected) { 
        world.sendMessage("there is a connected chest"); 
    }
});

[cerulean cliff]

why are you all fighting with double chests since ages? I'm slowly getting curious

[amber granite]

This is the smallest chest detector u can find

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

const isConnectedChest = (b, d) => (a = b[d]())?.type === "minecraft:chest" && a.permutation.getState("facing_direction") === b.permutation.getState("facing_direction") && a.getComponent("inventory").container.size === 27;

world.beforeEvents.playerPlaceBlock.subscribe(({ block: b }) => {
    if (b.type === "minecraft:chest" && (isConnectedChest(b, "east") || isConnectedChest(b, "west"))) world.sendMessage("There is a connected chest");
});

[amber granite]

Where are not fighting we are inventing

[distant tulip]

will do

[amber granite]

Smallest ☠️ :

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

world.beforeEvents.playerPlaceBlock.subscribe(({ block: b }) => {
    const c = (d) => (a = b[d]())?.type === "minecraft:chest" && a.permutation.getState("facing_direction") === b.permutation.getState("facing_direction") && a.getComponent("inventory").container.size === 27;
    if (b.type === "minecraft:chest" && (c("east") || c("west"))) world.sendMessage("There is a connected chest");
});

Works only with beta api

[sharp elbow]

Fighting? This is an educated discussion, with each of us working to find the optimal solution to each of our different approaches.

((mine has come the closest))

[cerulean cliff]

okay didn't mean it in a harmful way, but this is quite interesting I must say

[sharp elbow]

Agreed!

[amber granite]

Yesh now how can make it smaller ? ☠️

[wary edge]

I believe Lucy is saying, "Why and what are you all struggling with double chests" more than "Why are you fighting each ither over double chests".

[cerulean cliff]

^^^

[sharp elbow]

Given how often completely ridiculous arguments break out here, I can understand choosing the word "fight" lol

[wary edge]

As someone who has just been lurking on/off, I am quite confused what the situation with double chests.

[sharp elbow]

The question is quite simple: Can you detect if a placed chest will connect to another chest?

[amber granite]

Maybe the most accurate word to say is competition

[sharp elbow]

It has been a very fun exercise.

[amber granite]

._. yeah

But it soultion was so easy :-: but so tricky

Some said it s impossible

Some said it has edge cases

Some did extra work on it

But we didn't see the direct way or the simplest:-: everyone find the solution but from its point of view and it s mind processing method

[neat hazel]

How to turn this command into a script, without using runCommand??

/execute if score northern worldtime matches 1.. run scoreboard players remove northern worldtime 1

[unique acorn]

const objective = world.scoreboard.getObjective("worldtime") ?? world.scoreboard.addObjective("worldtime")
if (objective.getScore(player) >= 1) {
    objective.addScore(player, -1)
}

[amber granite]

Hilp , how can i get data from before event then put it in after event

[true isle]

what component would i use to imitate placing vines like the vanilla chrimson vines? i got all the other components i just cant seem to figure out the place block when placing it on an already growing vine

[wary edge]

Probably on interact.

[knotty plaza]

Or itemUseOn

[true isle]

   world.beforeEvents.itemUseOn.subscribe((event) => {
        const { block, itemStack } = event;
        if (!itemStack) return;
        const below = block.dimension.getBlock(block.below().location);
        if (itemStack.typeId === "blushrooms:popple_vine" && block.typeId === "blushrooms:popple_sprout" && below.typeId === "minecraft:air") {
            block.setPermutation(BlockPermutation.resolve('blushrooms:popple_vine'));
            below.setPermutation(BlockPermutation.resolve('blushrooms:popple_sprout'));
            decrement_stack(player, itemStack, 1);
        }
    });
});

is this right?

[amber granite]

._.

[last latch]

how do i use the shutdown event?

itellisense wont show me the shutdown event

[umbral dune]

seems correct

[umbral dune]

below could just be block.below()

[true isle]

yeah idk. ive used multiple ways i cant get it lol

[wicked girder]

is it possible to force the host to quit?

[remote oyster]

You can kick the host, yes. Just execute the runCommand method from Dimension and not from Player when calling the kick command.

[wicked girder]

doesnt seem to work

[remote oyster]

It does, show the line of code you used.

[remote oyster]

Do this:

world.getDimension(args.dimension.id).runCommand()

[wicked girder]

still no

[remote oyster]

Are you doing this in a local world and not a server?

[wicked girder]

local world

[remote oyster]

Then no, it won't work. It works in a server.

[wicked girder]

bruh i said host lol

[remote oyster]

You can test on BDS

As a host

[wicked girder]

Is there anything to force the host to quit?

[remote oyster]

I already told you.

[wicked girder]

thats for bds... and that doesnt even have a host

[remote oyster]

BDS, and Realms.

[wicked girder]

thats litterally the same but yeah

[sharp elbow]

Could you invoke remove() on the player?

[wicked girder]

that broke my game lol

[sharp elbow]

Ah, did it cause you to time out instead of kicking directly?

[wicked girder]

i cant enter the world?

[sharp elbow]

Oh, I guess that really busted it

Does restarting Minecraft help?

[wicked girder]

idk what was happening with my game but no remove doesnt work

[remote oyster]

Do you plan to run a local world only?

[wicked girder]

yeah

its a map idea I got

[sharp elbow]

If your project supports editing the player definition, I would look into applying the "minecaft:despawn" component with an event. That might be better than remove()?

[wicked girder]

well remove didnt work in general but im trying the compent method rn

[remote oyster]

Use to be able to explode the player to force quit but I don't know if that was patched.

[sharp elbow]

That was funny

If neither of those work anymore, then the only other method I know, and despite how inconvenient it may be, has to be my personal favorite, is having a mob with the "minecraft:behavior.eat_mob" component eat the player. Last I tested, that caused an instant kick

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/593812273164976166/928704455032078356/frog_eat.mp4?ex=67a0ff6c&is=679fadec&hm=2c2cce63c2dc994f4250c341c1e7738c335d3bb5857c40f4c6816c97eea961f5&

[wicked girder]

thats amazing

and i think the despawn one works but its buggin

dooooope I got it working where I can trigger an event to kick host

needed to set the timers and stuff to 1, which eplains why it was taking forever to kick them

[sharp elbow]

Oh, shoot, I forgot there were two despawn components.

[wicked girder]

yeah instant despawn dont work

[sharp elbow]

If you have more time to experiment, try "minecraft:instant_despawn"

Crud

[wicked girder]

which was annoying

but this works

[dim tusk]

system.beforeEvents.shutdown.subscribe(() => {

});```

[wicked girder]

though i think this could potentally lock the player in the disconnect menu

[dim tusk]

you meant this?

[untold garnet]

anything new with js?

can we make actual in game commands yet?

[wary edge]

No.

[wary edge]

Depends, how long you been gone?

[deep arrow]

No.

[untold garnet]

Ooooo

you can cancel block breaking event now

[unique dragon]

lol

one of your lasts messages was in 2023 lmao

[untold garnet]

is it bad?

lol

so i guess spawn protection has been possible now?

[patent tapir]

Ok I just walked into a skygen that managed to bypass/turn off the word filtering

I'm way too curious of how it's done

If I had a system to splice the messages around the sensitive words to put an invisible character in, Minecraft would just write the character as some UTF garbage so...

Please don't take this seriously but how??

That's not the only strange thing about this skygen either, there's like 30 people here and it's running smooth as heck

But that's a completely different issue

[valid ice]

Optimization goes far

as for turning off word filtering- don't even need scripts to do it. just
"enable_profanity_filter": false in JSON UI elements

[patent tapir]

JSON UI elements..... where?

How?

What file path in behavior pack

[valid ice]

not Bp

RP

[patent tapir]

Oooooooooo ok

What file path tho

[patent tapir]

That actually makes sense too, the skygen made me download a resource pack (Minecraft doesn't allow me to see shared packs tho :/ )

[valid ice]

RP/ui/hud_screen.json -> chat_label object in there
RP/ui/chat_screen.json -> messages_text->controls->text object in there

[valid ice]

downloading packs is pretty common

[patent tapir]

Hmm ok

[valid ice]

Doubt it just removed the filter

[patent tapir]

It was 1.3 mb so I also doubt it

It was a very fancy skygen BP I'll tell you that

And it had an HP bar mod

Someone was going frickin NUTS over the fact that profanity was allowed after I pointed it out lmao

[valid ice]

[patent tapir]

It wasn't pretty

[valid ice]

I can imagine

[untold garnet]

did they remove beforePistonActivate event?

[valid ice]

yes

[patent tapir]

Now I just need to figure out how to make these work

I've never used those files before

[untold garnet]

where are the chat events?

[valid ice]

I recommend looking at the vanilla samples files

[valid ice]

Still beta APIs

[untold garnet]

so there is no more chat commands anymore?

[valid ice]

There is

Same way you did before

[untold garnet]

but whats the chat event now

[valid ice]

world.beforeEvents.chatSend or world.afterEvents.chatSend

Were you here when they separated before & after events?

1.20.0 update, it was pretty big

One could say it was massive

[untold garnet]

I need up to date documentation to look at

can you point me to it

[valid ice]

the microsoft docs are good

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

[patent tapir]

Hey can I delete these garbage files in the RP like /ui/how_to_play_common.json and /sounds/sound_definitions.json

[valid ice]

try it and see

[patent tapir]

I just dont wanna break my game :/

[valid ice]

Run through the https://wiki.bedrock.dev/json-ui/best-practices.html page

see what's cooking

[patent tapir]

Maybe only having the pack_icon and manifest files will work

oh and texts folder

[valid ice]

TLDR anything that isn't needed in JSON UI can be yeeted

[untold garnet]

ahhhhhhh i was at "minecraft-bedrock-stable"

[valid ice]

that includes stuff you haven't edited in the files themselves

[untold garnet]

what version of docs is for minecraft-bedrock-experimental

betas?

[valid ice]

ye

[untold garnet]

i see

[patent tapir]

I think I deleted too much, chat messages wont show up at all in the chat screen anymore and it throws an error that the property couldn't be found 😔

I'm afraid that if I try it directly from the vanilla pack without deleting anything it'll throw a lot more errors because

There are so many syntax errors that bridge finds in the vanilla file

Whatever

[valid ice]

perhaps comments

[patent tapir]

lol this is all there is in the chat_screen.json file currently

{
  "namespace": "chat",
  "messages_text": {
    "controls": [
      {
        "text": {
          "enable_profanity_filter": false
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}```

I'm a curious man, what can I say

[valid ice]

Try adding the stuff that's in the text object from the vanilla file

[patent tapir]

Just did EVERYTHING that was already there, if it doesn't work Ill try that

ooo fun, it doesn't throw errors when loading

That's a good sign

Omg

That's so funny

It's so simple

But so funny

lol the anvil renaming still doesn't like it but it did unblock chat lmao

Well now I know

[valid ice]

Check anvil file

Similar process

[patent tapir]

Can't find anything in hud_screen

Oh

anvil_screen isn't it

ha ha

[valid ice]

ye

[patent tapir]

Despite what I'm doing you continue to help

What a chad

Also what's the object name

[valid ice]

Dunno, haven't looked into that one

[patent tapir]

Oh gee

I think I found it

"[email protected]_edit_box"

autofinish says it's a property that exists there so i guess it works ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Oh, thats the same for... every object

I started putting it in every object until I find one that finally picks it up
(I dunno if it's even possible at this point :/ )

Imma get a shower. Be back in a bit

[patent tapir]

Back

Ok

So

I just realized 2 things:

1, I would probably have to mess with the anvil_screen_pocket file to make this work and

2, someone in my skygen asked me if their weapon was fine to use and they gave me a netherite sword with the name (obfuscated)GO GO GADGET CHAT DESTRUCTOR(obfuscated) then like FIFTEEN LINES of nothing, they said it wasn't a hacked item and just a resource pack, which makes me think that these two situations are similar in the way they're done

Edit: found how it's done. This little sht: json "[email protected]_edit_box": { "anchor_from": "top_left", // the parent "anchor_to": "top_left", // this control "property_bag": { "#property_field": "#item_name" }, "max_length": 30, "$text_edit_binding_name": "#text_box_item_name", "$text_edit_box_label_size": [ "default", 10 ] } The profanity filter remains unbroken

[shut citrus]

how to break shield using scripts?

[dull shell]

so i wanna delete the command out of this and make it set the block when its destoryed is that possible?

import { world, ItemStack } from "@minecraft/server"

world.beforeEvents.playerBreakBlock.subscribe(event => {
    if (event.block.typeId == "minecraft:wheat") {
            let block = event.block;
            let player = event.player;
            let location = block.location;
        
            event.player?.runCommandAsync(`execute @s ~~~  setblock ${location.x} ${location.y} ${location.z} wheat`); 
        }
    }
)```

like without running a command on the player to set the block bakc

[thorn flicker]

block.setType('minecraft:wheat')

but it wont save the growth progress.

also why are you not just using cancel?

[dull shell]

wdym?

[dull shell]

thats fine im trying to make it replant the wheat after breaking

[thorn flicker]

the cancel property.

its in most of the beforeEvents

it cancels the event from happening so in this case, it would stop the block from breaking

[dull shell]

someone helped me with making that part

[dull shell]

I want them to break the wheat though

[thorn flicker]

okay.

that would cause a duplication glitch

is that what you are aiming for lol

or are you creating an auto replanting thing

[dull shell]

yes auto replanting lol sorry for the confusion

[thorn flicker]

nah, was just wondering

[dull shell]

all good so I would just replace the entity.Runcommand with block.setType('minecraft:wheat')?

[thorn flicker]

yes.

[dull shell]

what does this mean? and how can I fix it

[distant tulip]

don't use async run command

there is a limit of 255 cmd

[valid ice]

runCommandAsync

[grave thistle]

is the latest stable version 1.16.0 or 1.17.0?

[valid ice]

Thank God it’s deleted in 2.0.0-beta, that surely won’t have any negative impacts on dev work!

[valid ice]

1.16.0 if you’re running stable, 1.18.0 if you’re running preview

[grave thistle]

noice, thank!

[distant tulip]

i was hoping v2 won't come out until all the beta stuff come to stable

[last latch]

Oh system

Thanks

[trail marten]

how do i get a list of effects in minecraft?

[dim tusk]

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

console.error(JSON.stringify(EffectTypes.getAll()));```

[trail marten]

thought i need to enter into the prototype property or some sht

[dim tusk]

There are also ItemTypes, BlockTypes, EntityTypes, DimensionTypes, EnchantmentTypes,

[trail marten]

yes thanks anyways

[acoustic basin]

guys, does anybody knows y im getting this error?
here's the line the error is showing error for
selectedItem.getEquipment('Mainhand').nameTag = `Bucket of ${target?.nameTag}`
and the error itself
[Scripting][error]-Error: Failed to get property 'nameTag' at <anonymous> (animal_bucket.js:189)

im trying to give the bucket name of an entity that player interacts with, its beforeEvents.playerInteractWithEntity

i tried to just give name of Bucket of cc, and it didnt give any error, so its pointing out that it cant get nameTag property from ${target.nameTag}

[unique acorn]

send your full code, or only the playerInteractWithEntity part

[acoustic basin]

world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.subscribe(data => {
    const player = data.player
    const target = data.target
    const itemStack = data.itemStack
    const selectedItem = player.getComponent('minecraft:equippable')
    if (target?.typeId === 'v360:mole' && itemStack?.typeId === 'minecraft:bucket') {
        system.run(() => {
            selectedItem.setEquipment('Mainhand', new ItemStack('v360:bucket_of_mole', 1)).nameTag = `Bucket of ${target?.nameTag}`
            target.remove()
        })
    }
})```

[untold magnet]

const charged = source?.getComponent('is_charged'); isn't working? ( trying to detect if the creeper is charged )

[acoustic basin]

ive changed the selectedItem.getEquipment('Mainhand').nameTag = Bucket of ${target?.nameTag} already, trying something

[wary edge]

Does the mole have a nametag?

[acoustic basin]

yes

[untold magnet]

maybe try ${target?.nameTag()}
idk

[acoustic basin]

doesnt work

[unique acorn]

has it been renamed using a name tag? or did you change it's name tag in your code?

[acoustic basin]

i gave a mole nametag, and than tried to pick him up with a bucket

but the bucket didnt get mole's name

[unique acorn]

did the mole disapear?

[wary edge]

Ohhh

You need to set the itemstacks name first before setting it the setequipment.

[acoustic basin]

no

[acoustic basin]

ah, hold on

wait, how do i do it actually

make a const for itemstack?

[wary edge]

Yeah.

[acoustic basin]

actually yes

[unique acorn]

const item = new ItemStack('v360:bucket_of_mole', 1)
item.nameTag = `Bucket of ${target.nameTag}`
selectedItem.setEquipment('Mainhand', item)

like this I think

[acoustic basin]

okie i'll try rn

[untold magnet]

?

[acoustic basin]

yay it woooorks

thank u both so much!

thought, y does it work this way, that i have to make a const for it first...

[untold magnet]

alright next: me

[unique acorn]

no idea

[acoustic basin]

try to do hasComponent instead of getComponent maybe?

[unique acorn]

any errors?

[untold magnet]

doesn't work

[amber granite]

Are u sure that thing exists?

[unique acorn]

yes it does

[untold magnet]

i should do console.warn(charged) to see

[unique acorn]

i did this in my world and it worked

const charged = target?.getComponent("is_charged")
if (charged) {
    world.sendMessage("entity is charged")
  } else {
    world.sendMessage("entity is not charged")
  }

it could be something else

[untold magnet]

its undefined

[unique acorn]

then the entity doesn't have it

[untold magnet]

but the creeper is charged

[sage sparrow]

hi there, I see that I can monitor when a player take a item with the packetSend events (TakeItemActorPacket), but is it possible to identify which it was picked up?

[untold magnet]

i see

i cannot detect the charged creeper as the source

[untold magnet]

console.warn(source?.hasComponent('minecraft:is_charged')) warn: false

const source = damageSource.damagingEntity; ^

[dawn zealot]

are dynamic properties stored in like the manifests uuid?

like this one

[patent tapir]

What is the shutdown event??

[celest abyss]

I will continue to improve it

[unique acorn]

I think when the world stops (host leaves) or server stops, it is only in preview tho

[patent tapir]

AYO?

data.cancel = true```
Easy cheat for realms without realms LMAO

[unique acorn]

lol

it doesn't say what it exactly does in docs tho 😞

[patent tapir]

Well it's a preview thing ofc it wouldn't be in there

[unique acorn]

fair

[valid ice]

Just because it's a before event doesn't mean it is cancelable 🙂

[patent tapir]

I'm now just imagining someone trying to close their world but the "save & quit" button not doing anything and instead throws an error in the console

hheheheehehhehehhehheehee

[unique acorn]

if playerLeave before event was cancelable, shutdown would've been possible too

but its too op so why would mojang do that

[patent tapir]

But it wasn't, was it?

I wish there was a disconnectReason data value in the playerLeave event so I can send in chat why they dc'ed

(Like kick, reset, leave, and connection error)

[unique acorn]

that would be very useful

[valid ice]

No

It was not cancelable

[dull shell]

what should I use to run them then?

[patent tapir]

Why is runCommandAsync bad?

It just waits for the next tick after the last command (if there is one) to run it

Right?

[dull shell]

i think so

[valid ice]

If you want stuff to run in order like you typed in your code, then runCommandAsync ain't the way to go

[patent tapir]

I feel like it would just be an easier system.run => runCommand tho

[valid ice]

Native methods are better to use, if they exist

[patent tapir]

Please correct me if I'm wrong

[valid ice]

runCommand completely halts the code until the command finishes- which is a different problem. Lots of those, and the world can freeze until everything is finished running

[patent tapir]

OOHHHHHHHH

OH DEAR

[valid ice]

Try it out, see for yourself

[patent tapir]

Yeah that's an issue I didn't know I had

I've been using runCommand EXCLUSIVELY

And I have done my best to not use it, but there's still at least like 3 of them in my largest addon :/

[dawn zealot]

is there anyway i can stop dynamic properties from getting removed if i change the pack uuid?

[patent tapir]

Ok first, why do you need to change the UUID

It'll mess a lot of things up unless the pack hasn't been used yet

[open urchin]

if you're making a new version of your pack, only the "version" fields should be changed

[dawn zealot]

adding packs to realm

like updating

[patent tapir]

Yeah you seriously dont need to change the UUID for that

Just add the pack to the realm

Very simple

[dawn zealot]

yeah obv bruv

[patent tapir]

Unless you managed to use the same UUID on MULTIPLE packs in this realm

[dawn zealot]

im talking about updating the pack

[patent tapir]

Well then just do what Quazchick said

If it's not in the development folders it probably should be anyway

So that you don't need to jump through all THOSE hoops...

[dawn zealot]

in normal packs bc it needs to be to be in a realm

[patent tapir]

I'm pretty sure you can use development packs in realms too

[dawn zealot]

u cant

literally just tested it

[patent tapir]

It just makes it so as long as the UUID is the same, newer packs overwrite older packs no matter what

[patent tapir]

Damn ok

[dawn zealot]

hmm alr ty

[patent tapir]

I dont pay for realms so I guess I have to believe you

[chilly fractal]

Yo bois

Is there someway to store data on the player?

(Across addons)

I know i can just use ipc or even scriptevent and set the props from one addon to another

But

I'm just asking if there is a vanilla way

[distant tulip]

scoreboard db

[fast lark]

hi i have problem with my chat rank addon

world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe(({data}) => {
});

wtf

[valid ice]

What script version are you using

[fast lark]

1.17 beta

[valid ice]

hmm

[chilly fractal]

Yeah i said, "store on player" not exactly shared storage but yeah that's probably the only way

[fast lark]

oh no sorry i just realized i m using 1.6.00

[chilly fractal]

What version is your mc?

Nvm

[valid ice]

Welp, that'd do it lol

[fast lark]

oh okay

[distant tulip]

should i save the code inputted by the user?
currently saving only the setting

[chilly fractal]

Yessirrr

[distant tulip]

so, an auto save that it interval can be changed from the setting, how that sound?

[chilly fractal]

That sounds w

[patent tapir]

Ok 2 things: I'm pretty sure you don't put brackets around the data value (only the parenthesis), and second of all, are you importing world properly?

[fast lark]

it was the script version

[patent tapir]

Oh

[fast lark]

lol

[patent tapir]

i don't know either

[pale terrace]

is there a way to execute an scripting code when a new chunk is loaded?

[chilly fractal]

Not really sure

But

There is a command

/schedule i think

It triggers when a chunk is loaded or smth. Go read about it

[pale terrace]

oohh

I will try thx

[pale terrace]

aah it works only with functions?

[chilly fractal]

You can do:
world.getDimension('overworld').runCommandAsync('schedule <params because idk them>').resultCount;

It's something

Idk if it's .resultCount

Check the docs because i think my memory is rusty

[pale terrace]

I mean, /schedule params work only with mcfunction

like /schedule on_area_loaded add <from: x y z> <to: x y z> <function:filepath>

So, I need to add a mcfunction with /scriptevent or something

[fast lark]

What is result count!

?

[unique acorn]

its .successCount

[fast lark]

Same fir ghis what us successCount

For this*

Is*

[chilly fractal]

^^^

[unique acorn]

it resturns if the command ran successfully or failed

i think it returns 0 if it failed and 1 if it succeded?

or maybe the opposite

[fast lark]

And its possible to have the actual result of the player

Li idk tag list

Like*

[unique acorn]

idk

I never tried it

[fast lark]

Okay

[pale terrace]

but the script will not wait util its success, because the command wait until the area load, not the script, if the area isnt loaded it will return 0 and will not wait until the command is success, so, you have to use a mcfunction with scriptevent anyway

[dawn zealot]

anyone got like an anti fly?

[fallen hearth]

How can I change the slot selected by the player? I want to force him to change to a specific slot in the hotbar

[fast lark]

I think its impossible

[pale terrace]

I think its not

I dont remember the name

[pale terrace]

ah its selectedSlotIndex you can change its value

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server.Player.html#selectedslotindex

[fast lark]

Nah after this i want to kms

[dim tusk]

Who said that?

It's both get and set property dude

[fast lark]

Look at my name…

[pale terrace]

try player.selectedSlotIndex = 1 for example

[dim tusk]

Nah, stop using that stupid excuse

[pale terrace]

then 🤫

[dim tusk]

right?

[fast lark]

Bro but It explains itself

I called myself i dont know for a reason

Turn that frown upside down baaaaabyyyyy

Woo

I am feelin happy

[fast lark]

New name

[chilly fractal]

I fully revamped my shitty compact+++ almost obfuscated code into 3 different addons with each for their own purpose and everything is a bit more descriptive

[chilly fractal]

Nah, you know dude

Just learn

Read

And watch

And listen

[fast lark]

Your right

[chilly fractal]

You'll eventually know better than anyone

(Impossible but just lifting your spirits)

[dim tusk]

Me during exams be like:

[amber granite]

Midnight Dopamine rush

[distant tulip]

i should look into implementing a workspace feature

[dim tusk]

this shii is gasss

[amber granite]

• add a way to make new sheet and remove the old one ,
• Select all text feature

[dim tusk]

i contributed 0.5% in that

[distant tulip]

less, lol

[dim tusk]

0.01% lmfao

[distant tulip]

new sheet? file?
you can select all manually
maybe a copy button to automate is

[distant tulip]

the bug finding part is the best help tbh

and suggestions

[dim tusk]

I love 🐛

I help people find bugs in their things but I can't find bugs in my own scripts 💀😐

[zinc flax]

How do I round off a float value leaving 2 decimal places?

[dim tusk]

value.toFixed(2)

What'd you guys think is the best way to check if a player's full body is submerged to water

not player.isInWater since it will return true if it hits any part of the players collision

[celest abyss]

Is it possible to add a property to an item?

item.setProperty("trix:test" += 1)

[dim tusk]

No.

closest one is dynamic property

[celest abyss]

So it's not possible to make a system where taking damage changes the texture of an item?

[wary edge]

Correct.

[patent tapir]

How do I set an item's name using this js sender.getComponent(EntityEquippableComponent.componentId).getEquipmentSlot(EquipmentSlot.Mainhand)

[dim tusk]

.nameTag

[patent tapir]

Can I just do .nameTag = "blah blah"??

Would that actually work?

[dim tusk]

yeah, why would it not work?

[patent tapir]

Idk

I always looked at the value properties as just values

Read-only, that is

[dim tusk]

some are both some are get only

const equippable = Player.getComponent('equippable');
const mainhand = equippable.getEquipment('Mainhand');
mainhand.nameTag = 'Bruhhh!';```

[ivory bough]

How to make my entity spawn behind or next to trees?

[slim spear]

Is that a thing that's in stable?

sorry for late reply, I opened this channel and it showed that

[true isle]

is it possible to make bocks place in a world similar to a scatter feature using script api?

[solar dagger]

yes

[covert goblet]

Block above and block below is water maybe

Or block 3 higher than players feet is water

[amber granite]

Is there a method to get beta top screen infos ?

[covert goblet]

Can we not run custom chat commands from a command block??

[round bone]

You can run only these with slash

[knotty plaza]

Custom chat commands are just chat messages, so you can't run them from a command block

If you want to do something similar then you can use the scriptevent command

[amber granite]

Is there a general module that includes everything that script api dev may use it when working on add-on ?

[untold magnet]

hmm,

how am i going to detect the killed entity from world.beforeEvents.entityRemove component?

like how?

What I'm trying to do:
detecting when the charged creeper killed some specific mobs.

[dim tusk]

entityDie isn't good already?

[untold magnet]

entityDie cannot detect the charged creeper as a killer

tell me if it is possible to detect the charged creeper as the killer in the entityDie component.

[dim tusk]

Hmm, how are you detecting it?

nvm that question lol

[untold magnet]

world.afterEvents.entityDie.subscribe(({deadEntity: eEntity, damageSource}) => {
  const source = damageSource.damagingEntity;
  if (!source) return;
  const charged = source?.getComponent('minecraft:is_charged');
  if (source?.typeId === 'minecraft:creeper' && charged) {world.sendMessage('?')}
});;```

should i like unsubscribe or something?

[dim tusk]

Can you do something like this?

const chargedCreepers = new Map();

world.beforeEvents.entityRemove.subscribe(({ removedEntity }) => {
   if (removedEntity.typeId === 'minecraft:creeper') {
      const isCharged = removedEntity.getComponent('is_charged');
      if (isCharged) chargedCreepers.set(removedEntity.id, true);
   }
});

world.afterEvents.entityDie.subscribe(({ deadEntity, damageSource: { damagingEntity } }) => {
   if (chargedCreepers.has(damagingEntity.id)) {
      chargedCreepers.delete(damagingEntity.id);
   }
});

since you said that you can't check if the creeper is charged in the entityDie as the killer

[subtle cove]

datadrivenentityevent and entitydie combo...

[dim tusk]

hell yeahhh

-# I forgot that it existed ngl

[subtle cove]

they trigger an event when they swell

ima take a look on it

[dim tusk]

world.afterEvents.dataDrivenEntityTrigger.subscribe(ev => { 
    const { entity, eventId } = ev; 
    for (const modifier of ev.getModifiers()) { 
        const { addedComponentGroups, removedComponentGroups } = modifier; 
        console.warn(`Added component groups: ${JSON.stringify(addedComponentGroups)}. Removed component groups: ${JSON.stringify(removedComponentGroups)}.`); 
    } 
});```

[thorn flicker]

you dont need to do all that modifier stuff, just check for the event id

[untold magnet]

[dim tusk]

I didn't say he needed it 😭

[untold magnet]

just have to put ?

ig

[thorn flicker]

okay.

[thorn flicker]

optional chaining

[dim tusk]

I don't even know which one is throwing an error

Lol

[thorn flicker]

the one below isnt dealing with the typeId property

[dim tusk]

ngl, I read it as id not typeId

It's removedEntity

Mybad @untold magnet

[thorn flicker]

lol

[untold magnet]

nothing is working

:v

[dim tusk]

^ you did this?

[dim tusk]

use this combo then

[untold magnet]

all codes:

const chargedCreepers = new Map();

world.beforeEvents.entityRemove.subscribe(({ entity }) => {
   if (entity?.typeId === 'minecraft:creeper') {
      const isCharged = entity.getComponent('is_charged');
      if (isCharged) chargedCreepers.set(entity.id, true);
      console.warn('8')
   }
});

world.afterEvents.entityDie.subscribe(({ deadEntity, damageSource: { damagingEntity } }) => {
   if (chargedCreepers.has(damagingEntity.id)) {
      chargedCreepers.delete(damagingEntity.id);
      console.warn('88')
   }
});```![bao_icon_entities](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/937567566442922084.webp?size=128 "bao_icon_entities")

[subtle cove]

this is in afterEvents.entityDie

[dim tusk]

removedEntity

I just said it 😭

[untold magnet]

im trying to detect the charged creeper

[dim tusk]

it's removedEntity not entity

[thorn flicker]

t17x not acknowledging you is funny

and also infuriating to watch

[dim tusk]

I'm out here ebruh 😭😭😔

[thorn flicker]

lmaoo

[untold magnet]

just chilling lol

[thorn flicker]

and thats his response

[dim tusk]

my response: 😔😞

[thorn flicker]

poor guy

[untold magnet]

double checking:

world.beforeEvents.entityRemove.subscribe(({ removedEntity }) => {
   if (removedEntity?.typeId === 'minecraft:creeper') {
      const isCharged = removedEntity.getComponent('is_charged');
      if (isCharged) chargedCreepers.set(removedEntity.id, true);
      console.warn('8')
   }
});```

alright it works,

my phone is doomed, twice...

[dim tusk]

See? I'm not wrong... You're wrong

-# somewhat a reference to a movie

[dim tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/doom-slayer-doom-slayer-taunt-doom-gif-5228825785991726881

[untold magnet]

at least it works so i dont have to use normal creepers instead of charged creepers

[dim tusk]

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe(({ hurtEntity, damageSource: { damagingEntity, damagingProjectile, cause }, damage }) => {
   if (hurtEntity instanceof Player) {
      const effect = hurtEntity.getEffect('resistance');
      const amplifier = effect ? effect.amplifier : -1;
      const reduction = Math.min((amplifier + 1) * 0.2, 0.8);
      const resistedDamage = damage * reduction;
      const finalDamage = damage - resistedDamage;

      console.error(`Original Damage: ${damage}, Resisted: ${resistedDamage}, Final Damage Taken: ${finalDamage}`);
   }
   console.error(damage);
});

Halp, my calculations are wrong

-# I have a similar problem before... And I forgot where was the fixed

[knotty plaza]

I thought the damage from entityHurt was already reduced after the minecraft calculation

[untold magnet]

it works like the java one

[dim tusk]

I use that for checking if my calculation was correct

Which isn't lol

[dim tusk]

Nice.

[untold magnet]

no matter how many mobs is killed, only one of them will drop its head

[untold magnet]

YOU,
is this really necessary? chargedCreepers.delete(source.id);?

[untold magnet]

its the one at the entityDie section

[untold magnet]

i add it inside of system.run to give it a little bit of delay so all mobs will drop their heads

[unique acorn]

axolotl heads is evil 😞

[untold magnet]

shut it, if u love them, do not explode them using a charged creeper.

[meager cargo]

Guys, need help:
This is not working and I don't know why:

world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.subscribe((eventData) => {
    const player = eventData.player;
    const entity = eventData.target;

    if (entity.typeId !== "test:open") return;
    if (!player.hasTag("player_1")) return;
    if (player.getDynamicProperty("interacted") === true) return;

    const existingScoreboard = world.scoreboard.getObjective("TEST") ?? world.scoreboard.addObjective("TEST");
    const currentScore = existingScoreboard.getScore(player) ?? 0;
    
    existingScoreboard.setScore(player, currentScore + 1);
    player.setDynamicProperty("interacted", true);
});

What's here wrong?
After I interact with entity, I don't get scores. Also my entity has transform component, so after player interact with it it should transform but score should be added

[acoustic basin]

hey guys, how can i randomize this item list, to get one random item to insert into my entities inventory later on?

const itemList = [
    "minecraft:torchflower_seeds",
    "minecraft:pitcher_pod",
    "v360:blue_bonnets_seeds",
    "minecraft:acacia_sapling",
]```

[fallow minnow]

with server-net are you able to write json files and read them?

[wary edge]

array[Math.random()*array.length]

[acoustic basin]

i figures it out from here, thank u smokey once again

[meager cargo]

Can someone help me with scores? Please?

[acoustic basin]

ive been reading a lot about javascript for the last couple of days, strating to understand more and more

[amber granite]

Good for u

[buoyant canopy]

is there anything i need to know about before using explosion before event?

any bugs?

or limitations

[rose light]

Is it possible to spawn a particle for a player, and have it be visible to whoever I define? I'm using the 1.17 experiment

[valid ice]

It is, yes. You can use Player.spawnParticle() instead of Dimension.spawnParticle()

[rose light]

Would it be possible for me to select the players who will spawn the particle and only 1 player will see the particle, like a wallhack that allows you to see the players through the wall?

for example I, as an admin, can see the players through the particle, there will be a particle above the normal members and only the admins will be able to see it

[valid ice]

The Player.spawnParticle() spawns it only for one player; nobody else sees it except for them

[rose light]

It's true that I hesitated, I remembered that I can do what I need with this, thank you

[amber granite]

Guys

Is there a way to change the script whilst u r in the game ?

[distant tulip]

yes

[neat hazel]

Why is this happening?

Code:

mc.world.afterEvents.entitySpawn.subscribe(function (event) {
  const entity = event.entity

  for (let i = 0; i < entityIds.length; i++) {
    if (entity.typeId == entityIds[i].id) {
      entity.nameTag = ("Level: " + getScore(entity, "level"));
    }
  }
})

function getScore(entity, objective) {
  try {
    return mc.world.scoreboard.getObjective(objective).getScore(entity.scoreboardIdentity);
  } catch (error) {
    return error;
  }
}

[amber granite]

How ?

._. even if it has errors ?

[honest spear]

Wow, this got me! But i have no idea how that happen

[woven loom]

why are ypu returning error

[amber granite]

Because i m on the phone and i hate modifying files over and over

And the pc is so sloooo

[honest spear]

maybe its bug bc there is noo try catch asf as i know

weird

@neat hazel send more!

[valid ice]

Well, if the get score errors, it returns the error, so

[honest spear]

so it doesn't throws?

damn i se

my bad haha

i am blind or something

for sec i thought the getScore is native

haha

[neat hazel]

This is the error

[Scripting][error]-TypeError: Native variant type conversion failed. Function argument [0] expected type:
ScoreboardIdentity | Entity | string

[honest spear]

entiy.scoreboardIdentity might be undefined use entity as target directly

[woven loom]

entity is not in sb then

[neat hazel]

Like this?

[honest spear]

does it throws for entity as well in that case?

i am not using scoreboard apis too much

[neat hazel]

Oh, sad

[honest spear]

don't be there are many pros here whose are not cons

[woven loom]

there might be test method, you should prob use that first

[honest spear]

i am fan of returning null and handling the possibility of it, but in some cases returning number would also make sense

[neat hazel]

Ok

[honest spear]

So it works now? Or is there anything i can help you with?

[sterile epoch]

does anyone know why spawnItem is working, but the item disappears too fast?

it spawns for like 1 second then just vanishes, I don't get it, am I doing something wrong?

[valid ice]

There's no pickup delay, if that's what you're after

[sterile epoch]

it's not that, I'm using addItem, and if the inventory is full it drops on the floor instead,

but I just tested it, it spawns for 1 second and immediately despawns before the player can take it

[wary edge]

Are you in creative?

[sterile epoch]

yeah

[wary edge]

That's why.

Creative mode doesn't care about inventory slots. If it's full, they just suck it up into the void.

[sterile epoch]

ahh I see

well I'm glad it'll work then

thanks

[neat hazel]

I think I managed to fix it

One question, is there entity.getComponent("minecraft:health").setDefaultValue
Or any way to change the default life of an entity without using its Json code?

[honest spear]

so far there is no way in API

[woven loom]

yes

look for that in the docs

[honest spear]

there is no way in API

[neat hazel]

Exactly, you can only set the current value, not the default

[woven loom]

i meant max one

[fallow rivet]

world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.subscribe((event) => {
event.cancel = true;
})

[fallow rivet]

This event should reject all entity interactions, right?

So does this include a player picking up an item?

[cold grove]

interaction means interact component

like opening villager menu

[fallow rivet]

How can I find out the highest version of Minecraft-server and server-ui modules?

Guys

Who knows how to change my code while playing?

[valid ice]

wdym

use dev packs & /reload command?

[amber granite]

I want to change the code while i m testing

[amber granite]

dev packs ?

[drifting raven]

Using the `development_*_packs` folders

The correct way to create addons is by using the development_behavior_packs and development_resource_packs folders. Storing your addons here will allow you to reload the world to see addon changes, and will prevent pack caching issues.

You can work directly in the world, or in behavior_packs/resource_packs, but you need an understanding of manifest-versions and caching to avoid issues.

We highly recommend using the development_*_packs folders.

[celest abyss]

world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.subscribe(({ target, player }) => {
  if (target.typeId === 'trix:cucaracha') {
    const heldItem = player.getComponent("minecraft:inventory").container.getItem(player.selectedSlotIndex);
    if (heldItem && heldItem.typeId === "trix:maracas") {
      world.playSound(`random.tick`, player.location)
    

[valid ice]

before events cannot modify the world at all

[amber granite]

Do u have a sample or an example,

• Does it work in Minecraft bedrock pc or mobile or both ?

[celest abyss]

Ah

[celest abyss]

If I put the playsound in a function will it work?

[valid ice]

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1116091026843635732

[valid ice]

Use system.run or after event so you aren't in read-only mode (before events)

[random flint]

You need to delay it by 1 tick. Use system.run

If you switched to afterEvents, it would only run to successful entity interaction iirc.

[celest abyss]

Ty

[amber granite]

So

How to access it ?

[buoyant canopy]

is there a way to make a vanilla block wither proof?

[amber granite]

@valid ice , so i must put the folder inside add-ons folder , dosent .mcaddon work with it ?

[random flint]

.mcaddon makes minecraft import the addon into the "normal" and not "development" folder

The difference is the former gets cached into the world folder, while the "development" doesn't. Since it never get cached, you can edit it and use /reload in game

[distant tulip]

just change it and reload?

[amber granite]

I don't know how

I import my addons as .mcaddon

[distant tulip]

...

[valid ice]

If the pack is in the development folder, you just need to update the files and then run /reload

[amber granite]

Hmm , i need to put it inside games folders in programs/ windows?

[valid ice]

Wherever your com.mojang is

[amber granite]

Oh ok

Thx

[valid ice]

There's regular folders and development folders for BP & RP

[amber granite]

Ok then

[valid ice]

I am suprised you never knew about dev packs up until now

[distant tulip]

he did ask about it before, either he had problems with it and didn't get how it work or idk

[amber granite]

Maybe i m doing many things wrong

[dim tusk]

Get all dead entities

[amber granite]

Question

What i must do ?

[dim tusk]

Why are you there.

[amber granite]

They told me dev behaviour pack ?

[dim tusk]

I think that's not what they meant.

[amber granite]

._.

[dim tusk]

they mean is the coming.mojang folder

[amber granite]

Oh

Where i find it ?

Please

[dim tusk]

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.MinecraftUWP_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\games\com.mojang

Now i found it

Thanks for u

All

U saved me -6 months of work

Jk , thx u

[umbral dune]

One thing I would like to comment on about custom components.
From what I understand, so far the custom components are more like tags, it is not possible to give more information to the game other than saying that the block has so many components.
I hope that in the future, it will be possible to use custom components as {} objects, with their own properties.

[wary edge]

That will be custom components v2.

Don't worry, you're not alone in thinking this.

[distant tulip]

what is this thing called
accidentally enabled it and idk how

[wary edge]

Insertion?

Do the youngins not know about insertion?

[distant tulip]

-# getting called youngins from someone younger than me
cursor block or whatever it is called
what is Insertion too?

[fallow rivet]

If I write the code like this, will it work?

[wary edge]

getting called youngins from someone younger than me
👴 Well clearly if you don't know what it is.

I call it insertion since it inserts the char at that location. Maybe replacement is a better name but I call it insertion since you press the insert key.

[distant tulip]

i know what id does lol
just not the name
searching show result on vim, idk how my finger even reached there lol

[sterile epoch]

is there no regeneration option in ItemStack.createPotion?

[amber granite]

Hmmm is math random is even that random

I read about randomness while learning some c++

[dim tusk]

try it out

[amber granite]

I don't understand statistics: P

[unique acorn]

Math.random() was never random.

But it (gladly) does do it's job.

[dim tusk]

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/preview/classes/_minecraft_server.Entity-1.html#setdynamicproperties

guys regarding this.

is this how you use it?

Entity.setDynamicProperties({
    property1: "value1",
    property2: 42,
    property3: true
});

[unique acorn]

don't you need to use JSON.stringify?

oh nvm

it's properties not property

[sterile epoch]

can someone help, how do I give someone a regen potion with itemStack.createPotion

there's no way regen actually doesn't exist as an option

[dim tusk]

it accepts string right? did you try to put it?

[amber granite]

Huge project is coming!!!!

[sterile epoch]

yes, I did ItemStack.createPotion({ effect: "Regeneration" });

Healing works, and just gives me instant health

[dim tusk]

Try to lowercase it.

[sterile epoch]

all of the effects are uppercase

[dim tusk]

tho it doesn't matter ngl

Typescript?

yeah that's the one I followed

nevermind I was doing the 1.21.51 version and apparently regeneration just doesn't exist there

bruh wtf

nice so I have to wait till 1.21.70 to use potion effects

why tf would half of them be missing anyway?

[dim tusk]

I think in 1.21.60 it's there

tho I didn't try it.

[granite badger]

For some reason they forgot to add regeneration
Also the list for potion support via api is here https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/enums/_minecraft_vanilla-data.MinecraftPotionEffectTypes.html

[sterile epoch]

yeah I re read the docs like 50 times thinking I was crazy cuz I thought no way they forgot regen

[amber granite]

They always forget what people needs | : ( * mad villager noices*

[sterile epoch]

my whole system relied on the create Potion method so this is really annoying

[dim tusk]

I need life.

[distant tulip]

[dim tusk]

yey

btw I added too many themes lmfao

[amber granite]

Please minato the next time remove the placeholder text it s annoying for mobile ppl

[distant tulip]

auto save to an empty file, it should keep it

[dim tusk]

btw is that draggable?

[distant tulip]

idk if i should keep it tbh, shit git confusing

[amber granite]

• make it so u can select text too :-:

[distant tulip]

no

[distant tulip]

you can?

[dim tusk]

Damn. 2/10

[dim tusk]

You can.

[distant tulip]

😭

[amber granite]

I can ?

._.

Bro i m on the mobile

I really struggle with that

[dim tusk]

-# skill issue

[distant tulip]

drag select

[sterile epoch]

is there another way to give potion types? I'll have to change my system specifically for regen ig

[dim tusk]

structure?

[sterile epoch]

yeah could do that

[dim tusk]

since commands can't do that since it's id is only potion

[amber granite]

Or setItem

[distant tulip]

create potion should work

[amber granite]

☠️

[dim tusk]

regeneration isn't added yet.

[sterile epoch]

also, I have a question, let's say 2 people stand close to a structure item, does the person with better internet pick it up?

[dim tusk]

Goofy ahh nvm

There's data systems

[sterile epoch]

or would it be the person you load it on since they're closest?

[dim tusk]

/give @s potion 1 10

[amber granite]

Idk but , they doing it to make ppl struggle or their funds are very low

[sterile epoch]

oh yeah I forgot about that

yknow it's strange that system still exists, they changed concretes to have unique IDs but not potions

[dim tusk]

ngl, I feel like it's not needed, just use vscode 🤷

-# or notepad++ 😝

I'm making a plugin for notepad++ lmfao

[dim tusk]

yeah.

[distant tulip]

meh, it is just for fun lol
-# and for when i don"t want to load vs to tyoe code for someone
idk how helpful it is for mobile users

[distant tulip]

for?

[amber granite]

Hmm , i have question ,_,
Is there a loophole that can we use it to get more script api features

Idk like , getting some real in used game functionalities in c++

Using js

And some loopholes

[dim tusk]

I somewhat managed to make it to read npm

Tho limited asf

[distant tulip]

lets move to #off-topic

[valid ice]

Base code will always be hidden, and internet access for addons is restricted anyways

Hello Guys

[valid ice]

haii

[distant gulch]

How are you?

Kinda dead in here, 21.220 Members but only 227 Online

[valid ice]

227? There's 3.6k online

[thorn flicker]

its how many people following this post that are online

[valid ice]

ah ye

Thread had to be cleared out because there's a max user limit per post :discordthink:

[thorn flicker]

im curious why its not just a channel then

but you would have to do that with the other forums to be consistent

would not look nice neither

[wary edge]

Back then we only had 10k members and scriptAPI was a niche thing.

[deep arrow]

2.7k members online, 3.6 users one

[distant gulch]

really? weird.. maybe my thing isnt working

[flat dew]

are beta scripts generally safe to use? I've been waiting for the chat functions to come out forever. HCF and beta json stuff would make it so your world was permanantly stuck like that, but can you just turn beta scripts off once the stuff you use goes out of beta?

[drowsy scaffold]

If you plan on actively maintaining and updating your addon, then yes. otherwise, no.

Stable is only better for the reason that it never should need upated.

[wary edge]

You cannot turn off experimental toggles.

[flat dew]

i didn't realize beta-apis needed a toggle ._.

[valid ice]

They're safe in that they won't just randomly corrupt your world

And the script API toggle will be around for quite some time yet, as the team is always adding new features

[drowsy scaffold]

well I was not aware of that, interesting to know

[flat dew]

is there any way to tell what parts will come out of beta? I thought the chat functions were in beta 1.16.0 when we were on 1.15, but now they're in beta 1.17

[valid ice]

Readin' the changelogs

[flat dew]

i mean ahead of time, like if there were some other info source on what would actually come out of beta rather than just stay there each update

[wary edge]

Yeah, reading the changelogs lol.

[flat dew]

???

this just says "added xyz chat events" https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/scriptapi/minecraft/server/changelog?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

[wary edge]

No, the preview changelogs.

[flat dew]

where are those?

[wary edge]

https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/sections/360001185332-Beta-and-Preview-Information-and-Changelogs

[flat dew]

Thanks!

rip to chat events. unless I missed them they'll be in beta all the way to 1.19 at least

[valid ice]

Well, there ain’t no 1.19

It’s now 1.18.0 and 2.0.0-beta for versions, starting in 1.21.70 previews

[flat dew]

i figured since the 1.18 posts didn't say anything about them they would stay in beta through 1.18

I just wanna make typed-in-chat skyrim shouts. lol

if they remove a beta script thing can you still access it by setting your script version back to a version that had it?

[valid ice]

You cannot

Beta versions do not have backwards compatibility

[flat dew]

dang

thanks for answering my questions

[full brook]

let playerIndex = 0;
system.runInterval(() => {
  let players = world.getAllPlayers();
  if (players.length === 0) return;

  let player = players[playerIndex]; 
  if (player) {
    player.sendMessage(`${playerIndex}, ${player.nameTag}`);
  }

  playerIndex = (playerIndex + 1) % players.length; 
},1);

[valid ice]

Why not just forEach or for loop it

[full brook]

is it the same? I thought it would execute its commands on all players at once

[valid ice]

All the same

Just the way that you’re doing it is a bit… unorthodox

[full brook]

ohh, I'm trying to find the most efficient way to runInterval besides changing the tick

.

[valid ice]

Without changing the tick?

So everything executes for all players in the same tick?

[full brook]

system.runInterval(() => {
    for (const player of world.getAllPlayers()) {
        const item = player.getComponent('inventory').container.getItem(player.selectedSlotIndex)
        if (item === undefined) {
            world.sendMessage('test')
        }
    }
})

if using this then the code will be executed on all players at the same time, if using the one I sent earlier then the code will be executed alternately for each player

[valid ice]

It still runs in-order, for both a for loop and a forEach

[valid ice]

Ah I see, it makes each player have their own tick. My bad!

[full brook]

so which do you think is more efficient?

[valid ice]

Do you need to sequentially run code for each player, so each runs one tick after the last player?

[full brook]

umm, I just want if there are a lot of players, it won't overload cpu

[valid ice]

I would suggest using runJob & generator functions

It automatically allocates as much code per tick as can be run, then runs the next stuff when it can

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

There's an example on how to use the function on that page

[full brook]

ok thanks

[celest abyss]

It is possible to obtain all blocks of a certain type within a specific radius. ?

I'm trying to make the Squid Game "Crystal Bridge" game, but not all the blocks are always destroyed.

getBlockFromRay
Could it work?

[dull shell]

how can I make a block run a command every x seconds?

[wary edge]

If custom block ,use custom components and the tick component.

[dull shell]

thank you!

[patent tapir]

import { world } from "@minecraft/server"

world.afterEvents.buttonPush.subscribe((data) => {
  const source = data.source
  const block = data.block
  const buttons = [
    {
      button: {
        z: 8,
        y: 51,
        x: -14
      },
      rank: "alts:green"
    },
  ]
  const buttonMapRank = new Map(buttons.map(({ button, rank }) => [button, rank]));
  const rank = buttonMapRank.get(block.location)
  const roleTag = source.getTags().find(findTag => findTag.startsWith(rank.substring(0, 6))) == undefined ? "" : source.getTags().find(findTag => findTag.startsWith(rank.substring(0, 6)))

  if (rank == roleTag) {
    source.removeTag(roleTag)
  } else {
    if (roleTag === "") {
      source.addTag(rank)
    } else {
      source.removeTag(roleTag)
      source.addTag(rank)
    }
  }
})```

Why isn't this working

I'm trying to make a wall of buttons that you can push to add/remove a tag

But I only want one tag on each person of each prefix

So, like 1 tag from alts: and 1 tag from ranks:

Wait I broke the code that I was trying to show hold on

There we go

When I push a corresponding button nothing happens, at all. Not even an error. Absolutely nothing changes

[dim tusk]

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

world.afterEvents.buttonPush.subscribe((data) => {
  const player = data.source;
  const block = data.block;
  
  const buttons = [
    {
      pos: "-14:51:8",
      tag: "alts:green"
    },
  ];

  const buttonMap = new Map(buttons.map(({ pos, tag }) => [pos, tag]));
  const blockKey = `${block.location.x}:${block.location.y}:${block.location.z}`;
  const tag = buttonMap.get(blockKey);

  if (!tag) return;

  const currentTag = player.getTags().find(t => t.startsWith(tag.substring(0, 6))) || "";

  if (tag === currentTag) {
    player.removeTag(currentTag);
  } else {
    if (currentTag) player.removeTag(currentTag);
    player.addTag(tag);
  }
});

[patent tapir]

Ok

Ill try this

I just realized

BROO

I FORGOT TO IMPORT IT IN MAIN.JS WTF 😭

But your method is probably more efficient anyway

[patent tapir]

Ok so this does work to add and remove a tag of the same name, but it doesn't work to remove a tag of the same prefix

And I can't for the life of me figure out why that is

[dim tusk]

if (currentTags.includes(tag)) {
    currentTags.forEach(t => player.removeTag(t));
  } else {
    currentTags.forEach(t => player.removeTag(t));
    player.addTag(tag);
  }```

[patent tapir]

????

Is this supposed to be replacing the original if statements

[dim tusk]

yeah.

[patent tapir]

And what's the currentTags variable

[dim tusk]

still the same

[patent tapir]

There's no currentTags variable in your code

Unless the if statement defines it by itself but I doubt that

[dim tusk]

const currentTags = player.getTags().filter(t => t.startsWith(tag.substring(0, 6)));

[patent tapir]

Ok

[patent tapir]

Hmm, it still has the same result as before, it removes the tag of the same name but doesn't remove the tag of the same prefix

Is the subString wrong?

[dim tusk]

can you explain what you're doing again.

[patent tapir]

I'm trying to make a wall of buttons that you can push one of them to add/remove a tag, BUT there are families of tags differentiated by their PREFIX, like "rank:" and "alts:". I only want each person to have a MAXIMUM of ONE tag per prefix

Does that make sense?

[dim tusk]

then the problem is the substring

[patent tapir]

Ok is it the first or second parameter (the prefixes are always 5 characters long, including the ":")

Substring has a tendency to confuse me because I'm not sure what character it starts and ends counting at

Is subString(0,5) going to select the first five characters, or four characters? Is subString(1,6) going to select the first five characters starting from the second letter, or the first? Things like that.

Welp

I figured it out by myself

It was in fact the substring

It needed to be (0,5) instead of (0,6)

[subtle cove]

ever tried level.dat file?

[wary edge]

In game. Anything is possible via external modifications. But you're not going to tell someone to edit the binary files using dll injections and hex editor to build past the 128 block height limit in the Nether.

[subtle cove]

        setManualDailyBounty(player)
    }

can anyone help me ?
This scriptevent isn't working
When i use the command, it just says that the scriptevent is sent
it doesn't even give errors

if anyone can help, then please ping me

[random flint]

yea lol

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

It's still there, tho

[random flint]

event.initiator

initiator: If this command was initiated via an NPC, returns the entity that initiated the NPC dialogue.

So, that will only work within NPC dialogue. If you want to call it as a command too, maybe you want to use event.sourceEntity

@runic crypt

[runic crypt]

Okay thank you

@random flint

system.afterEvents.scriptEventReceive.subscribe((event) => {
    if (event.id === `gwim:bounty` && event.sourceEntity === `minecraft:player`) { 
        let player = event.sourceEntity;
        player.sendMessage(`Testing`);
        setManualDailyBounty(player)
    }
});

if you meant like this
then it doesn't work :D

wait is it because i have event.sourceEntity twice ?

[random flint]

*Did you import it?

Using it twice shouldn't be a problem

[random flint]

ah, you forgot .typeId

for && event.sourceEntity ==...

[runic crypt]

yep

[runic crypt]

ah okay okay

what if i remove it btw ?

just keep the second event.sourceEntity

[random flint]

Yeah, kept that one. Don't change it

[runic crypt]

ok ok

system.afterEvents.scriptEventReceive.subscribe((event) => {
    if (event.id === `gwim:bounty`) { 
        let player = event.sourceEntity;
        player.sendMessage(`Testing`);
        setManualDailyBounty(player)
    }
});

imma try this 🫡

[dull shell]

  world.beforeEvents.worldInitialize.subscribe(({ blockComponentRegistry }) => {
    blockComponentRegistry.registerCustomComponent('jay4x:egg_block', {
      onTick() {
        if (system.currentTick % 20 === 0) {
          console.warn('tic')
        }
      }
    });
  });```
how would I run a command off this?

[random flint]

Here's a janky way.

 world.beforeEvents.worldInitialize.subscribe(({ blockComponentRegistry }) => {
    blockComponentRegistry.registerCustomComponent('jay4x:egg_block', {
      onTick(event) {
        if (system.currentTick % 20 === 0) {
          console.warn('tic')
          const location = event.block.location;
          event.dimension.runCommand(`execute at ${location.x} ${location.y} ${location.z} run say ...`)
        }
      }
    });
  });```

If you don't care about position, then skip the `/execute` and `const location` part.
Though advised to just use native method instead of commands.

[dull shell]

well is it possible to summon a entity where the block is then destory the block? without commands

[runic crypt]

@random flint
either im doing something wrong
or part of my code is wrong cuz its still not working :F

[dull shell]

and amen for that 🙏

[runic crypt]

can i dm u the code ?
its too long to send here

[random flint]

//spawning zombie inside the block
event.dimension.spawnEntity("minecraft:zombie",event.block.location);

[dull shell]

oooo okay thank you!

i assume theres a setblock one too? I just have to look around

[random flint]

//set block to air (doesn't have destruction particle)
event.block.setType("air");

[dull shell]

so like this?

  world.beforeEvents.worldInitialize.subscribe(({ blockComponentRegistry }) => {
    blockComponentRegistry.registerCustomComponent('jay4x:egg_block', {
      onTick(event) {
        if (system.currentTick % 20 === 0) {
          const location = event.block.location;
          event.dimension.spawnEntity("minecraft:chicken", event.block.location);
          event.block.setType("air");
          event.block.spawnParticle('minecraft:totem_particle', event.block.location);
        }
      }
    });
  });```

i added the spawnParticle

[random flint]

Ye. You can clean the code afterward

[native orchid]

can i change the block permutation to be place in beforeOnPlayerPlace? I tried permutationToPlace = permutationToPlace.withState(...) but doesn't work

[ivory bough]

How to make my entity despawn when there is a block in front of the player's eye or sight which blocks the player from seeing my entity.

[grave thistle]

has anyone made a way to stop pistons from pushing custom blocks? I remember there being a block component ages ago that had that as a toggle but no longer

[empty yoke]

You can use gpt API in your world?

[chilly fractal]

Using wss + nodejs or python ye

[prisma shard]

using setCurrentValue in runInterval acting like deafault value 🗿

[prisma shard]

searching show result on vim

uh vim?

no way lol

[chilly fractal]

The text editor bruh

[unique acorn]

const equ = player.getComponent("equippable");
const damage = equ.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Chest).getComponent("durability").damage;

this keeps saying Failed to get property 'damage' at onUse (index.js:228), why?

the item is a diamond chestplate

[sharp elbow]

When in doubt, check every step of the way:

const equ = player.getComponent("equippable");
console.warn(equ.typeId);
const chestitem = eq.getEquipment(EquipmentSlot.Chest);
console.warn(chestitem.typeId);
const durability = chestitem.getComponent("durability");
console.warn(durability.typeId);
const damage = durability.damage;
console.warn(damage);

Perhaps the item is not damaged, or perhaps your scripting API version does not have an item durability component class. Need to check every edge case

[subtle cove]

try making a variable for the item 1st

[sterile epoch]

is there a native api method to give tipped arrows like there is for createPotion?
