[untold magnet]

ya

[shy leaf]

its the classic velocity fuckery

[sterile epoch]

ah

gotcha

[shy leaf]

you can try wrapping it with runTimeout or run

and hope that it gives you a good result

[sterile epoch]

alr

[untold magnet]

wait, will it be changed? like updated or something?

[shy leaf]

in 2.0.0, its been changed to

Entity.applyKnockback(Vector2, verticalStrength)```

[untold magnet]

so they have removed the horizontal strength thing from it, kinda

[shy leaf]

for example, this will change to

entity.applyKnockback({ x:0 * 0.16, z: -0.03 * 0.16 }, 0);

[untold magnet]

rn it's just (Vector2, verticalStrength, diagonalStrengthSomething)

[untold magnet]

gotcha

[shy leaf]

stable applyKnockback takes first two as direction and third one as strength

[untold magnet]

good thing they have updated it before i make my exe addon massive

[shy leaf]

yeah its better to use too

[untold magnet]

btw,

[untold magnet]

should i make my death certificate item show u the death location?

or it would be a bit too OP

[shy leaf]

whats the death certificate item

[untold magnet]

this,

[shy leaf]

hmm

whats the item for, anyway?

[untold magnet]

showing ur death information, like who killed u and which time u have died at,

[shy leaf]

just that?

[untold magnet]

kinda

[shy leaf]

then yeah, dont add the location

[untold magnet]

i was trying to add it yesterday,

it returns [object] [OBJECT] thing

or it shows the atoms of the location, ( x: 402.17362815286481618, y: 63, z: 1174.15181653718175168 )

it might be bugged when u die on the void, so I'll just dont add it.

[shy leaf]

that one is because youre trying to convert an object into string

[untold magnet]

but it would be nice to see how to fix this issue,

[slim spear]

math.floor(x*10) / 10

would return something like 402.1

[shy leaf]

or .toFixed(0) works too

it shits itself sometimes though but its an issue with programming in general

[untold magnet]

mhm

[untold magnet]

I'll try to add multiple different variants of this item,

[rapid nimbus]

Hey guys, I have this script:

import { BiomeTypes, system, world } from "@minecraft/server";
import { Vector3Utils } from "@minecraft/math";
import { biomeTranslations } from "./biome_translations.js";

/**
 * Lấy tiêu đề của biome theo ngôn ngữ
 */
function getBiomeTitle(biome, lang) {
    return biomeTranslations[lang]?.[biome] || biomeTranslations["en_US"]?.[biome] || biome;
}

/**
 * Lấy tiêu đề của chiều không gian
 */
function getDimensionTitle(dimension) {
    const dimensionTitles = {
        "minecraft:overworld": "Overworld",
        "minecraft:nether": "§4The Nether",
        "minecraft:the_end": "§9The End"
    };
    return dimensionTitles[dimension] || dimension;
}

/**
 * Lấy biome tại vị trí cụ thể trong chiều không gian
 */
function getBiome(location, dimension) {
    const biomeTypes = BiomeTypes.getAll();
    const searchOptions = { boundingSize: { x: 64, y: 64, z: 64 } };
    let closestBiome;

    for (const biome of biomeTypes) {
        const biomeLocation = dimension.findClosestBiome(location, biome, searchOptions);
        if (biomeLocation) {
            const distance = Vector3Utils.distance(biomeLocation, location);
            if (!closestBiome || distance < closestBiome.distance) {
                closestBiome = { biome, distance };
            }
        }
    }

    if (!closestBiome) {
        throw new Error(`Could not find any biome within given location`);
    }

    return closestBiome.biome;
}

// Cập nhật tiêu đề biome và chiều không gian cho người chơi
system.runInterval(() => {
    for (const player of world.getAllPlayers()) {
        let location = player.location;
        let dimension = player.dimension;
        let biome = getBiome(location, dimension);
        let lang = player.getDynamicProperty("language") || "en_US";

        let biomeTitle = getBiomeTitle(biome.id, lang);
        let dimensionTitle = getDimensionTitle(dimension.id);
        let finalTitle = `${dimensionTitle} - ${biomeTitle}`;

        player.onScreenDisplay.setTitle(finalTitle);
    }
}, 60);

[shy leaf]

@minecraft/math module requires a separate install

[rapid nimbus]

But I'm on an Android phone so I don't have a Windows computer to use Visual Studio Codes

[shy leaf]

then you can download a standalone version here
https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/meta/cdn-links.html

[rapid nimbus]

How will I use it?

[shy leaf]

you can import that file instead of module

[rapid nimbus]

So can I create a directory to contain those JavaScript module files or not?

[shy leaf]

uhhh its your choice honestly

just make sure its inside scripts folder

[prisma shard]

meanwhile Math.floor():

[shy leaf]

irs different than Math.floor()

[dim tusk]

Uhh what?

[shut citrus]

vn

[stark kestrel]

unbreakable vanilla items?

[untold magnet]

uh,
let deathCounter = entity?.getDynamicProperty('deathCounter');
entity?.setDynamicProperty('deathCounter', deathCounter+1);
isn't working

[unique acorn]

make sure the dynamic property returns a number

[untold magnet]

let deathCounter = entity?.getDynamicProperty('deathCounter') ?? 0;?

[unique acorn]

try doing console.log(ntity?.getDynamicProperty('deathCounter')) to check

[unique acorn]

or that

u can do that

[untold magnet]

alright it works now

[prisma shard]

idk why people use Math.floor() for turning float into integer
but Math.round() is better to me

[prisma shard]

bruh you make that complicated

lmao

[wary edge]

That entirely depends on use case.

[shy leaf]

yeah it depends on use case

sometimes youd need round, sometimes floor, sometimes ceil

[untold magnet]

how so? is there an easier way or something?
-# or d u prefer if else

[gaunt flare]

Like 10:59 is still 10 not 11

[prisma shard]

let counter;
world.afterEvents.entityDie((e) => {
    if (e.deadEntity instanceof Player) {
        counter++
    }
})```

@untold magnet

ig

[shy leaf]

but youre supposed to store it in dp

[untold magnet]

nah, that counter will increase if any player dies

[untold magnet]

so i can apply it to the item lore

[shy leaf]

also that too

[prisma shard]

hmm idk

[prisma shard]

yeah right then

[shy leaf]

https://tenor.com/view/saul-goodman-better-call-saul-saul-goodman3d-meme-breaking-bad-gif-24027228

[untold magnet]

i mean, u can learn from my codes if u want to, bec i have written docs in the codes

[prisma shard]

[untold magnet]

just explaining why im using the cases, ig

[prisma shard]

kk

[untold magnet]

like so:

world.afterEvents.entityDie.subscribe(({deadEntity: entity, damageSource: source}) => {
  if (entity?.typeId !== 'minecraft:player') return;// Detects only players after they die.
  let deathCounter = entity?.getDynamicProperty('deathCounter') ?? 0;// Used to increase the death counter values.
  entity?.setDynamicProperty('deathTrigger', true);// Needed to spawn the Death-Certificate item.
  entity?.setDynamicProperty('entityName', entity?.nameTag);// Getting the dead player name.
  entity?.setDynamicProperty('sourceId', source?.damagingEntity?.typeId);// Getting the killer ID.
  entity?.setDynamicProperty('cause', source?.cause);// Getting the damage type.
  entity?.setDynamicProperty('dim', entity?.dimension?.id);// Getting the dimension id.
  entity?.setDynamicProperty('deathCounter', deathCounter+1);// Will increase the death counter by 1.
  entity?.setDynamicProperty('rDate', date.toLocaleString());// Getting the Death Date.
});;```

[prisma shard]

alright alright

[unique acorn]

why save the player's name in a dynamic property

[untold magnet]

to apply it to the death certificate lore

[unique acorn]

why not just do player.nameTag when you place the lore, you don't need to waste a few bytes just to save nameTag

[untold magnet]

meh, doesn't really worth it

[sharp elbow]

That's actually an interesting question. If an entity is invalid, does Entity.getDynamicProperty throw?

If so, then there's no advantage (or disadvantage) to using a property, other than the space as Cennac says

I would be tempted to use a world dynamic property for that instead. Store it in a Map that's saved to disk on world close, based on the player's ID (which is always valid until they disconnect)

[unique acorn]

it should say failed to get dynamic property of undefined

I think

but since the dynamic property in his code is set to a player, that shouldn't be an issue?

[sharp elbow]

Not undefined—just in the case of isValid == false

[sharp elbow]

That's neat ... but also in Java Edition?

[shut citrus]

it's java

[wary edge]

Whats...the purpose of posting that here?

[oak lynx]

update on saving areas of blocks

I got an idea to get an express.js app running pulling mcstructure files that are saved by the api but turns out you can't save to .mcstructure with scripts

useless

[prisma shard]

• This is a "bedrock addons" server
• maybe #off-topic would suit you
• This is the Script API discussion channel

[oak lynx]

so like uhh anyone has any ideas on how to save a region of blocks

[past blaze]

A roundabout way I developed in the past was to read the world's level database for the structure

[oak lynx]

do you have it somewhere

cuz I spent the past 2 weeks trying to figure something out

🤯🤯

[past blaze]

I do, but I'm not sure if it will be useful to you. It's in the form of a Godot project, and also, It's been so long since I worked on it, I can't even build it properly again.

[oak lynx]

Godot project what

[past blaze]

Yep. I made an app with a game engine

[oak lynx]

uhh is there any info anywhere on how to read the world database file(s)?

[past blaze]

It's kinda tricky. The only way to read it is with a C++ leveldb library. Any libraries you see in other languages use this library internally

[oak lynx]

Google leveldb?

[past blaze]

Yeah. Although I think Mojang has their own fork of it as well

[oak lynx]

https://github.com/Level/level

hmm so I could try using something like this

[oak lynx]

I am totally cooked

[past blaze]

It's fine. It's open source https://github.com/Mojang/leveldb

[oak lynx]

I will try doing something

but why can't we have a normal way to get blocks 😭😭

[past blaze]

Good morning @quaint birch (or good afternoon). I was wondering if there's a target date for when scripting v2 will release. I'm asking because I'm thinking of releasing WorldEdit 1.0 at the same as that becomes stable.

[digital trout]

Is there a way to run scripts client side?

[sharp elbow]

This was really upsetting. It's inconsistent with entityHurt—and the JSDoc comments don't signify this

Certainly not a derp on the OP's end

[somber onyx]

is there a version of this script that works in 2.0.0-beta, I can not fix it

[unique dragon]

how custom componentes changed in 2.0.0-beta

[wary edge]

Registered in startup.

[unique dragon]

that's what i changed but is still showing me this

[wary edge]

Startup is a system thing not world.

[unique dragon]

oh ok

ty

[devout dune]

Hey! I am not understanding what is up with this single_block_feature.
The block that is placed has a custom_component.

I am trying to simply spawn a structure onTick. But when I place the block via feature_rules, the onTick is not seeming to work!
But the onPlayerInteract works??

Here is my component logic

onPlayerInteract, logs

but onTick does not

If anyone has any idea id appreciate it!

The block is connected to the custom_component properly. Just curious why the onPlayerInteract is working, but onTick is not. I figured it may be a feature restriction. But i thought i remembered it working before

[glacial widget]

does anyone know the name for redstone ore glow id, need this for minecraft:can_destroy

[wary edge]

Does placing it normally in the world work?

[devout dune]

yup! instantly recognizes the onTick, and places a randomstructure

some of the single_block_features seem to work... but not all of them.
im using try/catch
and not seeing any error logs either

[wary edge]

Unfortunate, it very might well be the feature.

[devout dune]

Interesting.... It's weird that im seeing it work on some blocks though. So i figured i could catch the error, and just try the tick again. But i dont even get the initial tick. Hmm any idea? If i am trying to place a structure via custom_components.
(I am doing this to avoid the cutoff of some structs. without using jigsaw)

[dim tusk]

I already explained this to you before why this wouldn't work.

[unique acorn]

I'm so bored, what should I make

[dim tusk]

I made something weird.

world.afterEvents.entityDie.subscribe(({ deadEntity, damageSource: { damagingEntity, cause } }) => {
  if (deadEntity.typeId !== 'minecraft:player') return;

  Object.entries({
    deathTrigger: true,
    entityName: deadEntity.nameTag, 
    sourceId: damagingEntity?.typeId,
    cause,
    dim: deadEntity.dimension.id, 
    deathCounter: (deadEntity.getDynamicProperty('deathCounter') ?? 0) + 1,
    rDate: new Date().toLocaleString()
  }).forEach(([k, v]) => deadEntity.setDynamicProperty(k, v));
});```

[untold magnet]

what is even that
seems like a chatgpt thing lol

[dim tusk]

Ok that hurts me, second it's an object entries.

I guess, you never saw how I code before that's why.

[untold magnet]

yup, exactly.

[dim tusk]

So anyways. Just like array instead of just one string, you can get the name and get the values, that's what I did above instead of calling multiples dynamic propertyjs for (const [k, v] of Object.entries({ '<name>': '<value>' })) { console.error(k, v); }
It's in the variable, k = key and v = value.

Object.entries({ '<name>': '<value>' }).forEach(([k, v]) => {
  console.error(k, v);
});```

the variable can be any name btw.

const obj = { name: 'Coddy', age: 30 };

for (const [k, v] of Object.entries(obj)) {
  console.error(k, v); // "Coddy", "30"
}

Object.entries(obj).forEach(([k, v]) => {
  console.error(k, v); // output is the same.
});```

ohh yeah, expect me doing some destructing in some codes lol

[untold magnet]

my brain isn't braining here

[untold magnet]

const obj = { name: 'Coddy', age: 30, tall: '5'59.3' };

for (const [k, v] of Object.entries(obj)) {
  console.error(k, v); // "Coddy", "30"
}

Object.entries(obj).forEach(([k, v]) => {
  console.error(k, v); // output is the same.
});```

adjusted

[dim tusk]

and I just remembered that there's setDynamicProperties({ '<name>', <value>, '<name>': <value> })

you can set multiple dynamic property without calling individual for then.

[dim tusk]

and you think it's funny? So you like making fun of short people

[untold magnet]

i cannot understand how it works for now, but for later i would, ig

[untold magnet]

isn't that ur actual tall?

[dim tusk]

Tf? I'm 5'6 dude.

What'd you mean 2ft?

[untold magnet]

adjusted

[dim tusk]

Nah, this ain't valid. '5'59.3'

use double quotes since you used the single quotes. "5'59.3"

[dim tusk]

you don't need to really understand it since it's very simple unless you're really that slow.

[dim tusk]

What I did here isn't really big difference to your original one. Just smaller and easier to edit.

[sharp elbow]

Isn't there a method called setDynamicProperties?

entity.setDynamicProperties({
  deathTrigger: true,
  entityName: entity?.nameTag,
  sourceId: source?.damagingEntity?.typeId,
  cause: source?.cause,
  dim: entity?.dimension?.id,
  deathCounter: deathCounter+1,
  rDate: date.toLocaleString()
});

[sharp elbow]

You mentioned it here, yeah

[untold magnet]

for me its more complicated

[sharp elbow]

That approach is also more overhead. What you had originally was just fine too, if a bit repetitive

"Easier to extend" would probably be a better reason to use either an iteration or setDynamicProperties. You could merge a bunch of properties into a single object, then set that object

Useful for when you don't know ahead of time which properties you are updating, or if you only want to update some properties when they change and not others

const propObj = {};
if (...) propObj.foo = ...;
// ... more statements
entity.setDynamicProperties(propObj);

[dim tusk]

Yeah... Lol

[distant tulip]

a script that predict where the player arrow is going to land based on the bow start use duration and some math, preferably draw the arrow path

[unique acorn]

Good idea

I'll show results in 2026

[distant tulip]

lol, one of my to do ideas that i will probably never do

[unique acorn]

Maybe I don't have the mathematical knowledge for that

[north frigate]

guys why playerInteractWithBlock event doesn't work anymore

[humble lintel]

anyone tryna make an addon w me

im boreed

[warped kelp]

What server should I use script module api?

[distant tulip]

it does?

[distant tulip]

2.0.0-beta or 1.18.0

[north frigate]

when i use after or beforeevent nothing happens when i interact with any block

[warped kelp]

Oh darn. It says 1.14.0 on mine

Is 1.17.0 stable?

[unique acorn]

yes

[distant tulip]

yes but use 18

[warped kelp]

I'll use that, thanks.

[distant tulip]

it need the interact component, or use the before event

[warped kelp]

Oh right. I could edit it with bridge. Thanks ya'll

Change this?

[unique acorn]

yep

[unique acorn]

which addon

[humble lintel]

uhh idk any ideas

recreation of a java mod?

those are usually fun to do

[unique acorn]

oo good idea

which mod tho

[humble lintel]

uhh let me see

[unique acorn]

and don't choose create mod pls

[humble lintel]

darn

tecxh mod?

[unique acorn]

huh

[humble lintel]

a tech mod?

[unique acorn]

sure

[humble lintel]

any suggestions

applied energistics

no way lmaoooo

[unique acorn]

☹️

Looks scary

[humble lintel]

m aybe its possible\

but maybe not too much bedrock limitatioins

are there power mods already?

[unique acorn]

I don't play java mods so irdk

[humble lintel]

sorry i meant addon

not mod

[unique acorn]

I don't play with bedrock addons much too lol

[humble lintel]

lmfaooo

[unique acorn]

last time I played with an actual addon for more than 2min and for fun was 2 years ago

[humble lintel]

oh? waht the lol

[unique acorn]

well whatever idea you have in mind I'll do it

[warped kelp]

Chat, why did Bridge lower the mb count of my addon? I have an exact copy and all I did was change the server from 1.14 to 1.18 😭

[humble lintel]

I was thinking of a power mod of sorts

[warped kelp]

Power mod like those superhero armor/morphs?

[humble lintel]

noo like energy

tech mod

[unique acorn]

maybee, so like redstone but better?

[humble lintel]

uh that somewhat

search upo mekanism

mod

[warped kelp]

Does anyone know why? Did it just automatically remove uneeded textures or something?

[unique acorn]

"Mekanism’s team of experienced chemical and mechanical engineers have developed advanced ore processing machinery to extract resources from ores with utmost efficiency."
🙂

[humble lintel]

yes

https://modrinth.com/mod/mekanism

[unique acorn]

lowkey when you said does anyone wanna do an addon I thought you were just aiming for a small idea to pass the time

[humble lintel]

yes not a project

I'm not trying to recreate mekanism i would die

any suggestions'

I mean i'm working on a tree harvester mod rn but everyone already has one

though mine is optimized

[unique acorn]

hmm

why not add more stuff to redstone

[humble lintel]

sure what kind

[warped kelp]

Copper wires

Copper infused redstone = more range, customizable output

Or they can crawl the walls and ceilings

[humble lintel]

aye that mightb e a good idea

[unique acorn]

I'm so terrible with ideas.

[humble lintel]

wireless redstone

[unique acorn]

70% of the time would be getting the idea

[warped kelp]

Sculk

[unique acorn]

oh why not a remote that can toggle redstone power from far away

redtooth type thing

[humble lintel]

lmaoo yeah that works

do u knwo how to make dust like blocks?

[unique acorn]

huh?

[humble lintel]

like yk a redstone

its model is a dust

[unique acorn]

use a custom model ig?

[warped kelp]

Seems like it works like grass or those item frames

[humble lintel]

hmm

@unique acorn

[unique acorn]

Hi

[humble lintel]

i can share u my codespace if u want

[dim tusk]

Go in #off-topic or #add-ons

[warped kelp]

Okiee

[unique acorn]

okay

[humble lintel]

do u have github

[unique acorn]

yes

[humble lintel]

user?

[unique acorn]

CennacEh

[humble lintel]

addedd

[unique acorn]

so umm.

[humble lintel]

yeah...?

[dim tusk]

He don't do typescript

[humble lintel]

Ohhhhhhhh

you can still use js

doesnt matter

[unique acorn]

oh okay

nice

[humble lintel]

can we be in the same codespace at the same time

like remote or nah

[unique acorn]

idk, this is the first time I ever heard of codespace

[humble lintel]

ohh olkay

[unique acorn]

I just googled it when you mentioned it and read 3 articles about it and still have 0 info about it

[humble lintel]

lmao here

go on code and open the main codespace in either ur browser or ur vs

[unique acorn]

done

that took a while.

[humble lintel]

yeah my bad 😅

can u see the stuff

[unique acorn]

yep

[humble lintel]

i wanna see if whatever u do goes to me aswell

can u try writing in the script

[unique acorn]

okay

[humble lintel]

ohh wait

it might be an extension hold up

liveshare it's called

[prime zenith]

Hey anyone able to help with a complex optimisation

[humble lintel]

what is it

[prime zenith]

I made a post about it titled battle optimisation

[humble lintel]

is it a simulation?

[unique acorn]

I made a tiny tiny change, check if it's showing for u

[prime zenith]

This isnt typical coding as the code works but stats and order needs to be optimised

[humble lintel]

no it didnt work cennac

might have to join the liveshare

can i dm u cennac

[unique acorn]

sure

[prime zenith]

Atm its a simulation but ill plug it into the actual world when optimised

@humble lintel so you wanna help or no

[gritty walrus]

whats the new way to do const overworld = world.getDimension("overworld");

    {
      "module_name": "@minecraft/server",
      "version": "1.17.0-beta"
    },
    {
      "module_name": "@minecraft/server-ui",
      "version": "1.4.0-beta"
    }```

[shy leaf]

what do you mean by new way?

[gritty walrus]

trying to update an old pack

[shy leaf]

then you should change the module versions here

[gritty walrus]

already did starts throwing this error
[Scripting][error]-ReferenceError: Native function [World::getDimension] does not have required privileges. at <anonymous> (commands.js:5)

[shy leaf]

...i dont know where the pointer is pointing at

[prime zenith]

Put it in a system.run

[shy leaf]

if its 2.0.0-beta, system.run wont cut it

[prime zenith]

Lovely new bugs who would have guessed

[shy leaf]

no its not really a bug

its just that scripting load order has been changed in 2.0.0

[thorn flicker]

not a bug

[shy leaf]

the scripts can start way before the world load

[thorn flicker]

#1355306143676633271 message

[gritty walrus]

works ty

[shy leaf]

what

[gritty walrus]

😭

time to do it 400 more times woohoo

[shy leaf]

yeah uh

lets not do that 400 times

[shy leaf]

do that

[prime zenith]

Some things prob didnt change as nuch as you thought

[gritty walrus]

i remember i had to do that for everything a while back too

[prime zenith]

If the error was caused due to doing the same tick as a verification check thats why system.run can still work

[gritty walrus]

another question fixed one issue open alot more

RefernceError banUtils is not initialized

anyone know if its possible to make chat ranks without using beta apis? which would ofc require not using chatsend.

wouldn't be the same to use an object instead of a class?

ig it's simpler

[gritty walrus]

huh

[shy leaf]

no

[sick robin]

really not even using json some way that sucks extreemly bad if not

[shy leaf]

json is not related here

other than using plugins for BDS or something, its just not possible

[sick robin]

how do I get plugin for BDS cause I have one

[shy leaf]

uhhh im not sure about that one

never used BDS

[sick robin]

ok well ty anyways

[warped blaze]

const banUtils = {
  ban(player, reason, duration, admin) {
    bans.push({
      n: player,
      d: duration,
      tob: Date.now(),
      r: reason,
      a: admin
    })
  },
  isBanned(player) {
    return bans.some(x => x.n === player);
  }
};```

the way to use it remains the same:

using class: banUtils.ban()
using object: banUtils.ban()

[gritty walrus]

ah i see

sorry im fixing the errors as they come and they js keep comin

    at <anonymous> (moderation.js:100)


[Scripting][error]-Plugin [Zeno Prisons v2.0 - 1.0.1] - [index.js] ran with error: [ReferenceError: Native property getter [World::scoreboard] does not have required privileges.    at Database (moderation.js:21)
    at <anonymous> (moderation.js:100)
] ```

```21  this.objective = world.scoreboard.getObjective(databaseName) ?? world.scoreboard.addObjective(databaseName, databaseName);

100 const unbans_database = new Database("UnbanDatabase");

[shy leaf]

why not just do the solution VoidCell gave

[gritty walrus]

world.afterEvents.worldLoad.subscribe(() => {
  import("./scripts/levelsystem.js")
  import("./scripts/mobstacker.js")
  import("./scripts/stack_remover.js")
  import("./scripts/placelimit")
  import("./scripts/loot_table.js")

})``` this?

worked didnt even see his message

[patent bane]

How do I teleport a player to the world spawn?

[warped blaze]

.teleport(world.getDefaultSpawnLocation());

[patent bane]

When I do that, it teleports the player to 0 32676 0 instead of the worldspawn

[warped blaze]

i forgot about the height

The default Overworld spawn location. By default, the Y coordinate is 32767, indicating a player's spawn height is not fixed and will be determined by surrounding blocks.

[dim tusk]

Get the top most block.

then tp there.

[warped blaze]

Coddy saves the day again

[patent bane]

ty!

[dim tusk]

world.beforeEvents.itemUse.subscribe(({ itemStack, source }) => {
  if (source.typeId !== 'minecraft:player') return;

  if (itemStack.typeId === 'minecraft:stick') {
    const defaultSpawn = world.getDefaultSpawnLocation();
    const topMostBlock = source.dimension.getTopMostBlock({
      x: defaultSpawn.x,
      z: defaultSpawn.z
    });

    source.teleport(topMostBlock?.above(), {
      dimension: source.dimension
    });
  }
});```

[patent bane]

❤️

[dim tusk]

why do you eat tables weekly?

[patent bane]

they taste good

[patent bane]

the texture is outstanding

you should try it sometime

[rapid nimbus]

Hey everyone, how to fixed "run failed, no runtime or context available." error when use Script API on Minecraft Bedrock Edition?

[patent bane]

yo, it works but it teleports the player to y256 instead of the top most block, is there any way to fix this?

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

world.afterEvents.playerDimensionChange.subscribe((eventData) => {
    const { player, toDimension } = eventData;
    
    if (toDimension.id !== 'minecraft:overworld') {
        const overworld = world.getDimension('minecraft:overworld');
        const spawnVec = world.getDefaultSpawnLocation();
        
        const topMostBlock = player.dimension.getTopmostBlock({
            x: spawnVec.x,
            z: spawnVec.z
          });

        const safeSpawn = {
            x: spawnVec.x,
            y: topMostBlock?.location.y +1 ?? 70,
            z: spawnVec.z
        };

        player.teleport(safeSpawn, {
            dimension: overworld,
            keepVelocity: false
        });

        player.sendMessage('§cReturned to world spawn!');
    }
});

[dim tusk]

Why do that?

[dim tusk]

I already did this to you.

[patent bane]

oh mb

[patent bane]

its fixed now, thanks!

[leaden elbow]

is this server hacked?

it jumbled all channel names lol

[patent bane]

oh i just noticed

[patent bane]

april fools i guess

[leaden elbow]

oh yeah lol i forgot abt that

[valid ice]

They’re alphabetically sorted for neatness 👍

[prime zenith]

Anyone able to help with optimisation and feedback for my battle system

[prisma shard]

olleh syug yppah lirpa sloof !

[leaden elbow]

mhm

[prisma shard]

backwards - hello guys happy april fools !

[prime zenith]

The files are in battle optimisation also am i the princess varient of you lol im princessTG your just TG so bland 😛 im joking

@prisma shard whos the fool yous the fool happy april fools fool

[leaden elbow]

what

oh my

[prisma shard]

no my

[prime zenith]

@leaden elbow so are you able to help optimise?

[honest spear]

Hello i want to ask, Can i use python code for addons for my world? My brother know code with python so i am asking

@prime zenith Can you help me?

[prisma shard]

no

you can use python to auto generate your addons tho

but not directly use it

[honest spear]

Like i want python to make player double jump

Is it possible

?

[prisma shard]

^

[honest spear]

AI tells to me that coding needs python or something so i don't understand now, python is like language or something

So how do you do that?

[prisma shard]

bruh.............

bro doesnt even know python is even a language

[honest spear]

I saw ppl use code in addon many times already

[prisma shard]

but.. this channel is about javasscript

so no point of talking about python here

[prisma shard]

addon is made with codes....... ;-; bruh

[honest spear]

yes

so how can i do that

codes needs python or smth

or language

not sure what that means

i know JSON tho

[prisma shard]

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/scripting/scripting-intro

[honest spear]

I already read that, but there is no python decribed so i asked here if you know how to do that

i need to double jump to work in my addons and they said only script api can do that

[prisma shard]

I ALREADY SAID.
you can't use python directly in addons.

But can use python to write JSON/JS or auto generate addons

[honest spear]

so its not possible to code in addons?

[prisma shard]

Minecraft only supports Javascript and JSON

[prisma shard]

ofcourse??

[honest spear]

So Code is also python is like javascript?

[prisma shard]

JSON is a code... Javascript is a code..

[prisma shard]

^

[honest spear]

ahh

so its the same thing

i see

interesting

[prisma shard]

they all are coding languages

but

the way of coding each of them is different

[prisma shard]

If you want to make a Double Jump as you said, you can use Javascript and read the article "Intro to scripting"
And detect, if player has jumped, then for the second jump. you can use applyKnockback()

[honest spear]

I want to use this but i don't know how to add this code to addon

# Abstract Minecraft API Example
# Assume the Minecraft API provides these methods: `get_player_position`, `set_player_velocity`,

jump_strength = 10  # Customize based on the Minecraft API's velocity units

[prisma shard]

chatGPT right?

[honest spear]

No

its AI

chat ai

[prisma shard]

[honest spear]

yes chatgpt

but also not

i am using Copilot AI

[prisma shard]

please

for god sake

Don't use AI in minecraft scripting

But use if you want to make something Javascript-itself related.

[honest spear]

but i don't know how to us python, and AI knows the best

[prisma shard]

BRO I SAIDDDD, you cant use python in minecraft

😭

[honest spear]

yea its the same thing as JavaScript its code you said so

[prisma shard]

i am so done with you

[honest spear]

bruh, i think i am cooked

why is script api so hard to learn

i already tried like month ago

[prisma shard]

to learn script API, you should first complete a javascript course

atleast Learn abbout javascript before scripting

[honest spear]

yes

ok

[prisma shard]

bro doesn't even know that it is a coding language

[honest spear]

I know its language, its code using python language or languge like JSON

there are many languages

also molang

but molang is really hard

[prisma shard]

yes, but, please. Dont put python inside minecraft

Minecraft doesn't support python

[prisma shard]

there was no point of asking AI to make a double jump with python

[honest spear]

Wdym?

Python is code

[prisma shard]

uh-

[honest spear]

why, i need it in my world

[prisma shard]

oh...

Education Edition....

You didn't tell me this before!

[honest spear]

OK

[prisma shard]

uhm

then yes

i think python inside minecraft will work

[honest spear]

good

i think i am getting somewhere

[prisma shard]

I didn't knew you can run other languages in Education Edition 👀

[honest spear]

Hmmm, and how can i do double jump

in code?

[prisma shard]

idk python

and idk education edition

[honest spear]

ok

[prisma shard]

But this isn't the channel for you

This is about Script API (javascript)

[oak lynx]

js is for when you want to die ts is for when you want to write code 🙏🙏

[honest spear]

Yes i need code in world with code Script api

for addon

[prisma shard]

Then no python please

[honest spear]

@oak lynx Can you help me, @prisma shard Doesn't knows python code in MC

[oak lynx]

I haven't touched python in years

[honest spear]

OK

[oak lynx]

from all the languages I had to use in my life python is in the top 3... worst languages

[honest spear]

I also don't like code

its hard

[dim tusk]

convert python into js 🤷

[honest spear]

but i need it for my world with my friends

[honest spear]

OK

[prisma shard]

firstly, bro says "Yes i need code in world with code Script api"
Then says "finnafinest Doesn't knows python code in MC
"
Bro are you serious? if your gonna code in Script API, you can't use python there..

uhhh, this is AI?

[honest spear]

Yes

[prisma shard]

ofc

I cant fuking make him understand

DONT USE AI

[dim tusk]

Don't expect me helping you

[honest spear]

its python code

[honest spear]

you can't do code python?

its language for code

[prisma shard]

NO

[prisma shard]

GET OUT OF THIS CHANNEL

THIS IS JAVASCRIPT

[dim tusk]

that's not the reason I don't want to help you.

[honest spear]

OK

[dim tusk]

I know how to code python, it's literally in my bio.

[honest spear]

Ohh, where i can ask code in addons?

[oak lynx]

praying that the beta tomorrow makes getBlock() not useless

[prisma shard]

what update

[dim tusk]

Umm, nah.

[oak lynx]

we get a beta every Wednesday

[honest spear]

I need double jump in my world

but i don't know how to code

[prisma shard]

like, what changes will be done to make the getBlock() not useless

[prisma shard]

then learn????????

[prisma shard]

This server is for learning

[oak lynx]

I was supposed to type getBlocks() but autocorrect exists

[dim tusk]

make getBlocks() return blocks itself not locations?

[honest spear]

OK

i tried but it doesn't work

[oak lynx]

yes 🗣️

[prisma shard]

wiill be cool then 🗣️

[honest spear]

Can you give me a way to learn code in addons?

[dim tusk]

wiki.bedrock.dev

[honest spear]

I tried 2 months ago and not working

[dim tusk]

learn basic JavaScript -> read Minecraft script API docs -> make scripts

[oak lynx]

wait is it possible to get like all the typeIds/permutations that are in a specific region?

[honest spear]

i don't know

but i can try

[dim tusk]

getBlock().

[prisma shard]

........................

[oak lynx]

*without crashing

[prisma shard]

Guys

[dim tusk]

You're a confusing guy, you don't know js, but will help someone?

[prisma shard]

THATS what i am saying 😭

he is really ocnfusing

GUYS

GUYS

GUYSvv

GUYS

GUYS

[dim tusk]

Stfu

Don't spam.

[honest spear]

I thought its the advice to start learnig code jS

[prisma shard]

i think....... that guy is making us April Fools???? Check his username!!! i think it is conmaster second alt account!!!!

[dim tusk]

Ahh, that was a question and it wasn't for you lol.

[honest spear]

I know JSON and JS is part of the JSON

[dim tusk]

and?

he can kiss me if he wanted 😘

[prisma shard]

;-;

[dim tusk]

you think I don't notice lol?

[oak lynx]

anyone knows the performance impact of this?

[honest spear]

damn

[dim tusk]

I'm just playing along, in the first place who tf has a joined date of 2021 who doesn't know addons?

[prisma shard]

fr

[dim tusk]

PRETTY much like getBlocks() I guess but a lil bit faster

[prisma shard]

wait how u see join date

[dim tusk]

Or getBlock()

[honest spear]

Minimal its the fastest way we got to search for blocks

[prisma shard]

[dim tusk]

Stop fuckin spamming

[prisma shard]

sorry, but who doesn;t know addons, gives advice, i am confused

[oak lynx]

cuz I had this algo going over all block types and getting their positions with getBlocks() and it might be faster if I could filter out what typeIds to check first

[honest spear]

Depends on the scale, if thats more than 50 blocks then its notecible and if thats more than 200 than there is brutal difference

[dim tusk]

that's the fun part it does.

[prisma shard]

aw hell naw ConMaster? you fooled us, very badly.....

[dim tusk]

The area is actually large.

[dim tusk]

you mean, "you fooled me"??

[oak lynx]

we talking about millions

[honest spear]

Only some of you, i am really sorry but i have to

[prisma shard]

Did you know already he was ConMaster?

[dim tusk]

I mean by large is actually large. Like 100x100x100

[honest spear]

don't use getBlock() then

[dim tusk]

yes.

[prisma shard]

how 😭

[dim tusk]

And more.

[oak lynx]

I know

[dim tusk]

I already saw his account in other channels Soo yeah. I just played along.

[prisma shard]

i am april fooled 😭

[honest spear]

I am so sorry but i have to

[oak lynx]

okay so right now the plan is simple

1. I filter out what typeIds are in an area using containsBlock()
2. I iterate over filtered typeIds with getBlocks() to get an area of typeIds and positions

then I run some compression stuff and send it to my DB

i hate April fools

[prisma shard]

so all of these Drama, putting Python inside minecraft, ..... i am laguhing right now

[oak lynx]

NO WAY THEY ADDED COMMANDS WITHOUT NAMESPACES OMG

[prisma shard]

a week ago

[oak lynx]

Python is so disgusting 🤮

[dim tusk]

uhh what?

[dim tusk]

yes.

[honest spear]

so real

[oak lynx]

April fools 🤯

[prisma shard]

You did a very good acting, lmaaoo, who is your brother you said, who knows python

[dim tusk]

NO WAY...

[oak lynx]

is there a faster way to do this?

[prisma shard]

bruh you made us april fooled too

[dim tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/shock-shocker-shocked-black-guy-gif-27526370

[oak lynx]

nah this is actually a real question

[dim tusk]

I mean, you could try it rn

[honest spear]

Its slow and i think there is no better way, yet

[prisma shard]

i am still shocked how conmaster fooled me

bro is a magician

who is your brother

that knows python

lol

[oak lynx]

someone threaten mojang to add these things:

1. no namespace commands
2. XUID
3. working getBlocks()
   Like I want to make a server network using just bds cuz I am mentally insane

[dim tusk]

Stop already, the joke already dried out.

[oak lynx]

[dim tusk]

you're not mentally insane.

[prisma shard]

i have getBlock() better version

[oak lynx]

prove it 🗣️

[dim tusk]

you're still alive.

you can still talk.

[honest spear]

#1067535608660107284 message

[honest spear]

I think getBlock works as intended, but i would also like to have getBlockPermutation() without creatin block instance in JS

[oak lynx]

okay but i am working on a server network purely in bds
Well I use express.js for some stuff

[honest spear]

Whats your specific need case for searching for that specific block?

[oak lynx]

getBlock is fine getBlocks isn't

[oak lynx]

I need to save player islands (skyblock) to an external database

[honest spear]

So you are saving all blocks, or only one kind of blocks?

[prisma shard]

peanut bar

yum

[oak lynx]

all blocks and the islands are bigger than 64x so structures won't work

[honest spear]

Chunk the structures

use multiple structures for single skyblock island

[oak lynx]

okay but what do I do with the structures? I already tried getPermutation or whatever the method was

I can't just send a structure through rest api

[honest spear]

Ohh, so you have to save that to DB and not just MC world cache

[oak lynx]

yeah I will probably use mongodb

[honest spear]

well then getBlock is only way and still incomplete

if i could suggest then try using custom client to join and extract structures via it

its the fastest way

getBlock is not even providing all NBT information

only few components

[oak lynx]

okay but wouldn't first filtering what block types are in an area then using getBlocks to get all positions of specific typeIds

[honest spear]

I thought you want to save all blocks no matter what

[oak lynx]

that saves all the blocks

like I filter out what typeIds aren't in the area

[prisma shard]

/**

                do {
                    block = getBlock();
                    if (!--trials) yield void remove();
                } while (!block);
                remove();
                return resolve(block);
            }())
        })
    }
};

SIgma Ultra Pro Max++ getBlock()

[oak lynx]

wait I had a prototype somewhere

[honest spear]

If there are only some of them then yea, filtering helps

[oak lynx]

export function blockVolumeToBlockTypeIdArray(blockVolume: BlockVolume) {
    const blockArray: { blockId: string, position: Vector3 }[] = []
    const span = blockVolume.getSpan()
    const totalSize = span.x*span.y*span.z
    for (const id of blockTypeIds) {
        for (const location of dimension.getBlocks(blockVolume, { includeTypes: [id] }).getBlockLocationIterator()) {
            blockArray.push({ blockId: id, position: location })
        }
        if(totalSize==blockArray.length) break;
    }
    return blockArray
}

[dim tusk]

eww

[honest spear]

So you want to filter air blocks basicly right?

[honest spear]

If i could suggest, then avoid runJob and use own impl, with Date.now then you can boost up the synced execution

[dim tusk]

so true.

[honest spear]

not recommended for marketplace addons but for local usage is alot faster

[oak lynx]

no i want to filter out blocks that aren't in the area the code I sent above iterates over all typeIds in the game but I can use containsBlock to only iterate over ids that are present on the player island

[honest spear]

Interesting idea, i think at this point its just speculation if to use getBlock, but i would try to do performance tests to decide

[oak lynx]

I mean my performance tests made getBlock look really bad

[honest spear]

yea, i think so

[oak lynx]

so I'm willing to try a lot of stuff

[honest spear]

Yea we need improvement for getBlocks() so we know what blocks are where

[oak lynx]

like bds performance is great actually

I just need a few little things and it will be enough to run actual servers on it

[prisma shard]

function is not mine tho, btw how did u get the name lol

[honest spear]

What name?

like user name?

[prisma shard]

yes

[honest spear]

just made it up

👍

[prisma shard]

[honest spear]

First thing i did, was creating existing works like, "Dexter Everyday" then just replace some letters and add weird Capital letters in the middle, thats whole story

[slow walrus]

my god that is horrifying

[prisma shard]

why

[distant tulip]

You maybe talking to a child, so lighten up your language a bit

[prisma shard]

alright sorry

[chilly moth]

how do I get all death cause in entity die

[honest spear]

wdym? entityDie event fires for all causes except forced removal

[chilly moth]

can you show a sample

how to use few causes instead of all

[thorn flicker]

get the cause property from the event

[chilly moth]

ok let me check

[distant tulip]

Was it event.damageSource.cause?

[thorn flicker]

yes

https://stirante.com/script/server/1.18.0/classes/EntityDieAfterEvent.html#damageSource

[prime zenith]

@honest spear with?

[honest spear]

How can i add code python in addon

[unique acorn]

you don't

[honest spear]

OK

[chilly moth]

thx I got it working

[boreal siren]

How can I give a block a unique identifier and then use it like an entity with a dynamic property?

[patent bane]

just code it

[distant tulip]

That question is kinda random, maybe share your end goal and let us help you figure it out

[shy leaf]

i should optimize this shit.

[honest spear]

well its used alot i guess, you definitely should cache the value in JS if used alot

[shy leaf]

yeah i should

[shy leaf]

the lag is no more

[honest spear]

nice!!!

art piece of work

[shy leaf]

though i actually didnt cache the value

since the property can be updated by players mid game

(this is just an excuse, i was just lazy)

((im not used to caching))

[honest spear]

OK

👍

[honest spear]

(((I am not used to use Script API anymore))), i should fix that

[shy leaf]

rip

[distant tulip]

use python

[honest spear]

How can i use python in script api?

[shy leaf]

im feeling a deja vu

here

[honest spear]

OK

[distant tulip]

doesn't minecraft china have a python api or something like that

[slow walrus]

yes they use python

[distant tulip]

they have script api too?

[cold grove]

Yes

[distant tulip]

that is cool

[slow walrus]

no?

pretty sure they don't

[cold grove]

You said yes

Before

[summer path]

#1356632769035243550 Can anyone help?

[cold grove]

Its not called "Script" due to "javascript" btw

[summer path]

ok

can anyone help me? #1356632769035243550

[slim forum]

Helloo

[summer path]

Hi

anyone wanna hel pme

[slim forum]

Can I detect an enderman teleporting before and after?

[summer path]

ionknow

[distant tulip]

i meant script api as of the same one we have

[cold grove]

Popbably not

No

[slow walrus]

no, I said they use python

that doesn't mean they have mainstream bedrock's scripting api

they have their own thing that only uses python iirc

no JS

[prime zenith]

@honest spear do not use python ever it is a bad code to use outside of learning it is absolutly terrible to use and is a leading cause to high electricity prices avoid python

[summer path]

Can you pls write for me

cuz like i'm not learning JS for this

[remote oyster]

Ah yes, Python—the true villain behind global energy crises. Forget inefficient data centers or industrial power consumption; it's those pesky print("Hello, World!") scripts driving up electricity bills worldwide. Next thing you’ll tell me is that JavaScript is responsible for climate change. Truly, we must return to writing everything in hand-optimized assembly to save the planet.

[honest spear]

Ohh, ok

[honest spear]

Why this code doesn't work?

import time

# Define parameters for double jump
MAX_JUMPS = 2
JUMP_STRENGTH = 10
jumps_left = MAX_JUMPS

# Event handler for jump action
def handle_jump_event():
    global jumps_left

    # Check if player is on the ground
    if minecraft_api.is_player_on_ground():
        jumps_left = MAX_JUMPS  # Reset double jump when touching the ground
    elif jumps_left > 0:
        # Apply upward velocity for the jump
        minecraft_api.set_player_velocity(0, JUMP_STRENGTH, 0)
        jumps_left -= 1

# Game loop
def game_loop():
    # Bind the jump event to the handler
    minecraft_api.on_player_jump_event(handle_jump_event)

    while True:
        # Simulate a game loop with minimal functionality
        time.sleep(0.05)  # Tick rate (replace with Minecraft's game tick logic if necessary)

# Start the game loop
game_loop()

[valid ice]

where script API

[honest spear]

it throws syntax error

[valid ice]

https://tenor.com/view/john-travolta-well-where-is-it-looking-for-something-gif-5291661

[prime zenith]

Under no circumstance for any reason should anyone ever use python python is a bad language and its power consumption is extremely high and because of ppl who used it for servers the power req to keep them is extremely high

[valid ice]

I see no scripts and no snakes, so that is invalid python and not a script

[honest spear]

OK

How can i fix it

[valid ice]

Find a python

[honest spear]

i want doublt jump in my world to work

[honest spear]

but it doesn't

[prime zenith]

@honest spear im sorry ill help you with javascript but im not helping you write python python is to dangerouse of a language to use

[honest spear]

OK

[remote oyster]

All hello world applications will take over the world.

[honest spear]

Can you help me wioth my addon code?

[remote oyster]

Skynet told me

[honest spear]

I don't know how to fix it

[honest spear]

wdym?

[prime zenith]

@honest spear tonight we can talk add me

[remote oyster]

minecraft_api, a library so advanced that it doesn't even exist yet. If we could get this to work, we might just revolutionize Minecraft modding… or crash the game instantly. 😎

[honest spear]

OK

[honest spear]

wdym?

#someonehelpme

[honest spear]

OK, do you have also problem with python

[summer path]

No #1356632769035243550

[deep quiver]

js python interpreter?

[honest spear]

i was waiting for this answer!!!

haha

[deep quiver]

I got you

[honest spear]

OK

[deep quiver]

Just wait a few years

Im gonna make a c++ interpreter in js

People will think its fast but its gonna be extremely slow

Its gonna compile to Mcssembly (pronounced Macsembly or just mc sembly)

Which then is gonna be interpreted

I think im onto something here

[cold grove]

Just like python

[prime zenith]

@honest spear if you need help i cant help til tonight

[honest spear]

OK

i think its working now

[deep quiver]

Will you make the js python interpreter?

[deep quiver]

Python?🐍

[honest spear]

nah i deleted interpretter

[deep quiver]

Damn

L python

[honest spear]

I won

[quaint birch]

@spring axle will probably hate that I say this. But I think we're targetting for June-ish for scripting v2? But definitely give the team a break if it slips a month or seven. 🙂

[wary edge]

Hate as in he wants it earlier or hate beacuse he wants it to be brewed for more time?

[summer path]

smokeystack can u help me

[wary edge]

As long as Navi suffers...fine by me.

[quaint birch]

I just don't like putting pressure on the dev teams by publicly stating dates that might still be fuzzy.

[wary edge]

Totally understand that!

Especially with something this huge!

[past blaze]

Totally understand. Thanks for the estimate

[summer path]

can u help me

[distant gulch]

How to register custom components with @minecraft/server release?

I can't find startup event in system

[wary edge]

What version?

[distant gulch]

1.18.0

[wary edge]

Continue using worldInitialize before event.

[distant gulch]

deprecated

[wary edge]

Yes, it will be deprecated if you decide to update to 2.0.0

[distant gulch]

I can't compile with worldInitialize

[distant gulch]

I'm making a long-term support map, I can't use the beta package.

[wary edge]

Then like I said, continue using worldInitialize before event.

[wary edge]

Like I said, continue using worldInitialze before event.

[distant gulch]

I can't compile JS file from source with this error

How to ignore errors?

[wary edge]

@distant gulch Please open a post with your code and the compile error.

[granite badger]

worldinitialize is in world.beforeEvents, not system

[distant gulch]

Nvm

All works

Thanks

[patent bane]

quick question, how do i view how much lag my addon creates?

[woven loom]

profiler

[patent bane]

thank

[honest spear]

yea profiler really helps

i would also suggest using MC debugger extension so you can see the statistics at the runtime

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1113933290018185337/1241171974533812255/ScriptWorldGenPerformance.mp4?ex=67ed20ba&is=67ebcf3a&hm=fddf289f68362daaf513ed425072b5ff77cbae561c5a9e18c2f171cc2a20edbc&

[sharp elbow]

I would determine the offset of the ray's intersection with the player's position. If, say, the player's "head" starts at ~1.4 blocks up when standing straight, then you can determine a headshot by seeing if the y-offset is greater than 1.4 blocks from the player's y-coordinate

[prisma shard]

oooo

headshot

you remind me of freefire

[woven loom]

Mame sure to check sneaking

[crude bridge]

.

[woven loom]

My approach would be to get the player head to entity head vector, and compare it with the player's direction vector using the dot product.

[distant tulip]

get entity from ray can give you exact location, so get head location and do a distance calculation

[woven loom]

something like this maybe

isHeadShot = V0 dot V1 < .75 + .15(distance/100)

[hollow sail]

Are there changelogs for the scripting api?

[wary edge]

Yes.

[hollow sail]

Where?

[wary edge]

In the same place as normal changelogs.

[hollow sail]

I was kinda hoping for something more condensed but alright

It’s been awhile since I’ve touched addons and wanted to know if the stuff I’ve been missing have been adding

[dim tusk]

not the movement itself but the momentum?

[north rapids]

how do I get the entity family?

nvmd I found it

[gray tinsel]

if a particle is spawned on a player can it access player related queries?

like player.spawnParticle

[gray tinsel]

Just tried this out and they can't access player related variables unfortunately

[pale terrace]

hey guys, do you think using js const startTime = Date.now(); const time = Date.now() - startTime is more efficient than using system.runTimeout? in the case that I need too many of them

[neat cypress]

When is scripting v2 expected to come out? Soon or later?

[wary edge]

@neat cypress

[slim spear]

How long did you run it to get those results?

[shy leaf]

just a few seconds

i could run it for a few minutes but i was just super lazy

[slim spear]

oh

[viscid horizon]

how do i correctly subtract the value from a dynamic property (it’s int)

[warped blaze]

uhm, .getDynamicProperty()?

[dim tusk]

Get the dynamic property first 🤷

const value = World.getDynamicProperty('value') ?? 50;

World.setDynamicProperty('value', value - 10); // return 40;```

[viscid horizon]

aight thanks

[warped blaze]

lol i thought he meant how to GET the value

mb

[runic crypt]

Hey, is it possible to change the name of a spawned npc using scripts ?
If yes can anyone tell me how or link documentation ??

Please ping me if you do

[dim tusk]

get npc component

[runic crypt]

Can you tell me more ??
Are there documentation for this ?

What I am aiming for is to show specific text above the npc's head
Kind of like a chat thingy

[dim tusk]

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/latest/classes/_minecraft_server.EntityNpcComponent.html

Also, there's a limit of amount you can display in npc's head/name tag.

Only 32 chars

[runic crypt]

It can't be bypassed ?
Even with \n ?

[dim tusk]

no.

[runic crypt]

Okay, thanks 👍

[rapid nimbus]

My Script API is okay but the way it displays the title is not very good so I have to fix my script to make it work more stable.

[prime zenith]

You could if its positioning thats the issue use json ui to move it

[leaden elbow]

% sign in my form crashes the game lmao

even tho with backslash

[prisma shard]

hi steve

[rapid nimbus]

Fixed biome title, Now only fixed dimension title left

[sage sparrow]

can I connect the debugger to a remote server or it must be at same machine? also is mandatory to have a client connected?

[granite badger]

Mojang claims it can connect to remote servers provided you know how to setup a tcp server. You can connect the debugger to a BDS

[sage sparrow]

but how do I define the server IP?
"localRoot": "${workspaceFolder}/behavior_packs/Inner_BP/",
"port": 19144

[oak lynx]

today's beta predictions go 🗣️🗣️

they will add jack black 👍👍

[shy leaf]

please beforeEvents entityHitEntity

[dim tusk]

I doubt.

If they do I'll jump off a highway

[shy leaf]

yeah theres

like

near zero chance but still

[wary edge]

No preview today.

[oak lynx]

previews are the only thing that give me motivation on Wednesdays

I should try finishing my block saving function 🗣️

[prisma shard]

If mojang adds beforeEvents entityHitEntity, I'll let the kids in my basement go out.

[leaden elbow]

does anyone know how to bypass this

urh

chicken jockey

[wary edge]

Well, preview this week is Thursday and it will try to be on Tuesdays from now on.

[oak lynx]

I gave up on entityHitEntityBeforeEvent and just block entity_hit damage on everything

[shy leaf]

just imagine the possibilities

[shy leaf]

i did this

[oak lynx]

makes sense

[shy leaf]

the docs says

"that should heal and not damage"

news fuckin' flash, it doesnt!

[prisma shard]

I can just imagine people will be forced to learn scripts

[shy leaf]

its better than doing it manually with JSON

uh

should be

[dim tusk]

learning javascript is fast, people are either lazy, or just slow learner which I respect, and people who are doing for the sake of friends

[oak lynx]

anyone here actually codes in js/ts outside of script api?

[shy leaf]

not me

[dim tusk]

yes.

Me, I do HTML

[oak lynx]

idk what i should use for my db connection prisma is cool but mongoose also looks like a decent option

[shy leaf]

speaking of this

that is practically a bug

it affects all the damages, even enchantments and mace damage

[dim tusk]

Don't inform Mojang.

[shy leaf]

lmfao

[dim tusk]

Just shhh

[prisma shard]

[shy leaf]

-# if they actually fix that i will go insane

-# please dont do it mojang, its my last hope

[dim tusk]

-# me who tagged a mojangster here.

[prisma shard]

how

[dim tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/hahahaha-gif-27342590

[shy leaf]

i will throw tomatoes at you

[oak lynx]

uhh anyone knows something really technical about dimension.getBlocks()?
does adding the exclude types filter make it faster or slower if i can add all the types i dont want there and include all the types i want?

[dim tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/spoon-spoons-block-blocked-shield-gif-5746176868344217122

[shy leaf]

p sure it makes no difference

[oak lynx]

everything makes a difference when talking about millions of blocks 🗣️

[shy leaf]

i dunno how the API works but

im p sure excludeTypes filter is just

equivalent to javascript native filters

(hopefully)

[oak lynx]

something is wrong

my pack loaded without a spike

[shy leaf]

[oak lynx]

it usually gets a huge spike when i open it cuz it does a lot of calculations on startup to avoid doing them later

[shy leaf]

should be considered as a bug

[shy leaf]

oh bruj

[oak lynx]

this is just not possible

[honest spear]

yea, i already said you better use custom client

Script API is not build for these kind of stuff

[oak lynx]

nah the bootup spike is just a second of like 30ms when nobody is on the server

https://i.imgur.com/57iceq5.png

hmm

900 ticks to save 64x384x64 is really bad

[oak lynx]

first i wanted to check how bad it would be

[honest spear]

yea

[honest spear]

yea, all right

[oak lynx]

and it somehow found more blocks than there are in the area 💀

turns out dimension.containsBlock is really slow

i expected it to be at least a little bit better than getBlocks

[honest spear]

well you are calling it for every type id, its slow when you call it that many times, but it loops the same blocks many times

it has to visit each block x times

i wonder if there could be done some optimalizations

[oak lynx]

probably yeah

but i doubt they will change much

easiest would be restricting the list of checked ids to obtainable blocks (but thats use case specific)

[honest spear]

Well i could optimize it for you but create post and explain me your goal more for what you do in Script API side

[oak lynx]

i dont think its possible to make it fast enough i will check endstone docs to see if it can save block areas

[honest spear]

Well i could try at least, but if you don't want then all right

[oak lynx]

like what i am trying to do is to save an area of blocks to a format i can store in a database

[honest spear]

I need more of context code, please create a post so we don't spam here

but i already have some optimalization in mind
