there is all there #1365770249835909272

[mighty igloo]

Yeah but that's just giving the player an effect

I'm taking about an item

[thorn flicker]

potion

item

[wheat condor]

you want to get the item potion effects?

[distant tulip]

what was the method to make potion items?

[thorn flicker]

no...

[mighty igloo]

Read and write

Give a potion with an effect as well as a certain amplification and length

[thorn flicker]

lol

[shut vessel]

Hi!
I'm working on a Bedrock Edition Minecraft server (version 1.21.73), and I would like to give players a custom kit that includes enchanted items (like Protection IV armor, Sharpness II sword, Efficiency II axe, etc.) using loot tables.

However, I found out that set_nbt and enchant_specific functions are not supported in Bedrock loot tables.

Is there any official way to generate enchanted items directly from loot tables in Bedrock? Or should I use /give commands in a .mcfunction file or JavaScript scripts instead?

My goal is to give players full UHC or KitPvP gear, with custom enchantments, either through loot tables or automated functions/scripts.

Thanks in advance!

[wheat condor]

you can do that with scripts, by using the ItemStack class wich has the "minecraft:enchantable" component to manage the enchantments

[shut vessel]

okkay

[sick robin]

anyone know how to fix this I tried system.run but it gave me the same errors: [Scripting][warning]-[System] Custom item amount: undefined item(s).

[steady canopy]

I guess you had to re-explain and re-explain it over and over again so chatgpt does it well ?

[woven loom]

anyway to get block's hitbox

[distant tulip]

nope, only using something like how you did with entities

[woven loom]

how accurate would that be ?

[distant tulip]

not sure what the distance of the steps the ray take, so not really sure

also it get the collision box not the hitbox

if the hit succeeded it is accurate
but sometimes it does pass through edges

[woven loom]

hard to draw that

[chrome gyro]

I'm pulling a word from Lore and an int. from a scoreboard and converting from a List then comparing them, Why aren't they registering as the same? I assume it has to do with a state (like .nameTag .name .id parseInt()) something like that:

                const oldcolor = itemStack.getLore()[3].replace("§tColor:§r ", "");
                    const colorList = [
                        { name: "Red" },
                        { name: "Orange" },
                        { name: "Yellow" },
                        { name: "Lime" },
                        { name: "Green" },
                        { name: "Cyan" },
                        { name: "Light blue" },
                        { name: "Blue" },
                        { name: "Purple" },
                        { name: "Magenta" },
                        { name: "Pink" },
                        { name: "Brown" },
                        { name: "Black" },
                        { name: "Gray" },
                        { name: "Light gray" },
                        { name: "White" },
                    ];
                const colorobj = world.scoreboard.getObjective(`color_${itemname}_cnbppl`);

                const colors = (colorobj?.getScore('cnbppl_variableholder') ?? 0);
                const color = colorList[colors]

                console.error(oldcolor == color)

I've tried about 30 combinations I could think of to parse the different words correctly, but couldn't figure it out myself, sorry.

[woven loom]

colors is index ?

[chrome gyro]

colors is an int from the scoreboard.

I maybe could just convert the Lore to a number... but I'm not really sure how to do that.

[woven loom]

+v or paraeInt(v)

[chrome gyro]

Hmm how do I use that?

parallelint?

[frozen vine]

Is it possible for me to get the family of the mob I interacted with?

[distant tulip]

family component

[plucky light]

Is there any change to events for item pickup? I want to check if a player has an entity and wondering if the constant checking of inventory is still the way to go

[remote oyster]

Not in Beta yet, but in Preview.

[wicked girder]

How do I teleport the player but keep their velocity?

cause you cant use that option in the teleport function so idk what to do

[remote oyster]

https://stirante.com/script/server/2.0.0-beta.1.21.70-stable/interfaces/TeleportOptions.html

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

const player = world.getAllPlayers()[0];

player.teleport(player.location, { keepVelocity: true };

[wicked girder]

ah is it only in beta rn?

[remote oyster]

Let me verify

[wicked girder]

It doesnt work for me in stable

[remote oyster]

It's available in stable (1.18.0)

https://stirante.com/script/server/1.18.0/interfaces/TeleportOptions.html

[wicked girder]

yes but it outputs that keepVelocity is not supported for player teleportation

same in beta

so whats the best way around this?

[remote oyster]

Are you spelling it correctly?

[wicked girder]

yes?

[distant tulip]

well... keepVelocity is not supported for player 🤷‍♂️
been like that for a while

[wicked girder]

Is there any good way around this though?

[remote oyster]

Ah, well that I didn't know about.

Or probably did but forgot 😂

[distant tulip]

probably

[distant tulip]

"good way"
i am afraid there is none

what is you use case

[carmine remnant]

anyone know how to fix this I tried system.run but it gave me the same errors: [Scripting][warning]-[System] Custom item amount: undefined item(s).

[wicked girder]

Just want to seamlessly teleport the player

[fallow minnow]

load the file with worldLoad

or whatever it is

like import("database")

[distant tulip]

i asked so i can think of any work around
but in general there is really no way

you can either applyknockback or make the player ride another entity, but those have there cons

[fallow minnow]

this is how we import

import { system, world } from '@minecraft/server'

world.afterEvents.worldLoad.subscribe(async () => {
    await Promise.all([
        import('./behaviors/import'),
        import('./events/chat'),
        import('./events/entity'),
        import('./events/item'),
        import('./events/join'),
        import('./events/player-actions'),
        import('./events/script-event'),
        import('./events/tick'),
        import('./uis/testing')
    ]);
});

[distant tulip]

Is the promise nesseary

[fallow minnow]

@valid ice

[distant tulip]

uh oh

[remote oyster]

Not sure why it would be necessary. I don't see any calls after the fact, or any specific returns, so I don't see any benefits from it. There's no functional reason to await the imports. The purpose of using await is to pause execution until something completes, but if there's nothing after the await, then what are you waiting for?

[valid ice]

None of those imports have function calls or constant imports, but for other code I do have calls, so the await does make sense

[slim thicket]

Hi, does anyone happen to know how to make the shield have a chance of not activating?

[distant tulip]

I see, yeah thatake sense in that case

[remote oyster]

Yea, see that makes more sense. I was looking at incomplete code then.

[warped blaze]

what's the await for?

[valid ice]

import() is an async function, so it's waiting for the return from each import before continuing

[sweet seal]

How to automatically close actionforms?

[warped blaze]

oh so you don't call anything before it's imported

[valid ice]

I do not

[warped blaze]

yeah i understood

await for everything to get imported to run the code properly

[valid ice]

The global assignments let me use it cross-function, as in my custom components I do this:
The register is also just to register them, so the function calls being stuck behind an async isn't noticeable at all

[frozen vine]

Is it possible for me to force the hand movement animation when I interact with a block?

[echo tinsel]

Could someone help me with script for making mobs occasionally spawn with random custom armor?

[sick robin]

Does anyone know why this is not working It does not give me any errors but it does not work for some reason i tried fixing it

[sick robin]

btw does this look right?

[mighty igloo]

how do i make a toggle switch in forms?

how do i make a button not close the ui

     */
    toggle(label: minecraftserver.RawMessage | string, toggleOptions?: ModalFormDataToggleOptions): ModalFormData;```

[valid ice]

Ya don't

[mighty igloo]

so i have to use a modal form for that?

[valid ice]

Modal form for toggles, yep yep

[mighty igloo]

if i use a modal form. how do i do like buttons and add texture images

[valid ice]

Modal form does not support buttons w/ images

Modal has stuff like text boxes, toggles, sliders
Action as buttons

[mighty igloo]

this is what my action form looks like but i wouldnt know how to convert it to a modal

[valid ice]

Well, you can't, really

[valid ice]

Modals and Actions don't really mix well

[mighty igloo]

I mean the icons are kind of important

could I use json ui to add the icons in?

[valid ice]

Probably?

[mighty igloo]

how do i move my json ui?

[mighty igloo]

how do i bind the modal?

[valid ice]

Would recommend you post in #1067869374410657962

                    const colorList = (
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Red" ? 0:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Orange" ? 1:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Yellow" ? 2:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Lime" ? 3:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Green" ? 4:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Cyan" ? 5:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Light blue" ? 6:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Blue" ? 7:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Purple" ? 8:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Magenta" ? 9:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Pink" ? 10:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Brown" ? 11:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Black" ? 12:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Gray" ? 13:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "Light gray" ? 14:0 +
                        JSON.stringify(oldcolor) == "White" ? 15:0
                    );

Made a reverse list, but running into the same problem of it being parsed incorrectly... any ideas to get these the same, === doesn't yield anything either.

[sharp elbow]

So what should it return? This implies to me it should return a number

If the oldcolor matches a string, it should return that value?

The most straightforward way I see is using a switch statement to assign the values.

let color;
switch (JSON.stringify(oldcolor)) {
    case "Red":         color = 0; break;
    case "Orange":      color = 1; break;
    case "Yellow":      color = 2; break;
    case "Lime":        color = 3; break;
    case "Green":       color = 4; break;
    case "Cyan":        color = 5; break;
    case "Light blue":  color = 6; break;
    case "Blue":        color = 7; break;
    case "Purple":      color = 8; break;
    case "Magenta":     color = 9; break;
    case "Pink":        color = 10; break;
    case "Brown":       color = 11; break;
    case "Black":       color = 12; break;
    case "Gray":        color = 13; break;
    case "Light gray":  color = 14; break;
    case "White":       color = 15; break;
    default: throw Error("oldcolor did not match a color");
}

Or you could create a mapping of those colors to numbers, then pull from the map.

const ColorMap = new Map([
    ["Red",         0],
    ["Orange",      1],
    ["Yellow",      2],
    ["Lime",        3],
    ["Green",       4],
    ["Cyan",        5],
    ["Light blue",  6],
    ["Blue",        7],
    ["Purple",      8],
    ["Magenta",     9],
    ["Pink",        10],
    ["Brown",       11],
    ["Black",       12],
    ["Gray",        13],
    ["Light gray",  14],
    ["White",       15],
]);
let color = ColorMap.get(JSON.stringify(oldcolor));
if (color == undefined) throw Error("oldcolor did not match a color");

Or similarly to the Map, you could make a simple array where the indices are the colors' numeric values and use findIndex. Random accesses will be slower than a Map, though

[chrome gyro]

exactly, thank you for both solutions. I was originally pulling a String from Lore then a number from a scoreboard and converting it to a color through a map, but in the console.errors it was saying "Red" from the Lore and "Red" from the other, but the test was coming out false for some reason as being the same.

                    const colorList = [
                        { name: "Red" },
                        { name: "Orange" },
                        { name: "Yellow" },
                        { name: "Lime" },
                        { name: "Green" },
                        { name: "Cyan" },
                        { name: "Light blue" },
                        { name: "Blue" },
                        { name: "Purple" },
                        { name: "Magenta" },
                        { name: "Pink" },
                        { name: "Brown" },
                        { name: "Black" },
                        { name: "Gray" },
                        { name: "Light gray" },
                        { name: "White" },
                    ];

It used to be like this^^

[chrome gyro]

Also yes this is what I was going for.

[chrome gyro]

Hmmm I'm so confused.
Tried this and It's throwing the error. But also tested for:
console.error(oldcolor)
and it says Green.

[sharp elbow]

Can you paste the error here?

[chrome gyro]

It's your custom error, yeah its:
omg I think I see it now I've wasted like 6 hours on this:

[Scripting][error]-Green§r

[Scripting][error]-Error: oldcolor did not match a color    at <anonymous> (cnb_ppl/ppl/index.js:722)

    at <anonymous> (cnb_ppl/ppl/index.js:809)

It doesn't show the §r in the pop up.

I hate myself rn XD

Thank you!

[sharp elbow]

Ah, that would certainly make the strings not match

I feel bad that you couldn't see it without copying the logs 😅

[chrome gyro]

haha, me too. I've been going crazy. It's hard too since I'm in that learning stage where you have a basic grasp of what to test for, but aren't good enough at it where your like: 'It's definitely that'. So I've just been using .id .name .nameTag JSON.Stringify... etc in so many different combinations for the last several hours haha.

[plucky light]

Are how we store dynamic properties changing in 2.0.0 onwards?

[round bone]

nothing changes

[frozen vine]

Is it possible for me to force the hand movement animation when I interact with a block?

[woven loom]

Try Play animation

[wheat condor]

Add the interact component to the block

[frozen vine]

But this would prevent the placement of normal blocks and this is not the idea.

[shy leaf]

prolly not...

[fallow minnow]

does anyone know if sendMessage auto translates?

or do i have to translate it

[open urchin]

if you do sendMessage("Hello") it isn't going to translate it to other languages for you

[fallow minnow]

okay so i have to translate it

ty

[frozen vine]

oh, okay, thanks

[solar dagger]

is there a way to stop a player from opening a chest?

[fallow minnow]

is there any way to translate text to another language?

without translation keys

[onyx lantern]

hmm so if I want to use any experimental stuff im forced to refactor my code to scripting v2?

I could swear before events for block breaking were stable lol

[fallow minnow]

playerInteractWithBlock

[solar dagger]

Thanks!

[round bone]

Use HTTP and some translate API

[fallow minnow]

i tried but it wouldnt work

the api was like

bad

it gave error 400

actually nvm

i needed an api key

do you know of any free apis

[unique acorn]

correct

[full idol]

Is there an easy pre-made script to randomize block drops?

Just like shuffle loot tables

[round bone]

https://libretranslate.com/

Just found it

[distant tulip]

actually, nvm
you can just fetch the translation without a key

[coral ermine]

what’s splash potion throw sound?

[shy leaf]

same as any other projectile throw sounds

impact sound is the same as glass breaking sound

[coral ermine]

so random.bow?

[shy leaf]

nah

i forgot the exact id for it, but that def isnt one

you could prolly check wiki

[coral ermine]

what’s the sound then? I alr checked it

[fallow minnow]

How?

[solar dagger]

i did this but it doesnt stop the player from opening the chest

world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe((ev) => {
  const block = ev.block;
  const player = ev.player;
  const blockInvComp = block.getComponent(BlockInventoryComponent.componentId);
  if (player.hasTag(approvalTag) && blockInvComp) {
    console.error('Interaction cancelled');
    ev.cancel;
  }
});

[shy leaf]

do ev.cancel = true;

[solar dagger]

oh right i forgot it's a boolean. Thanks!

[round bone]

How have an example here

[distant tulip]

The have an example
Whatever is used in the server net module to fetch stuff use it instead of fetch

http.get?

[fallow minnow]

It requires an API key though

[round bone]

it does not I think

if does, why you can't even create an API key if you're using BDS already?

you can change the key easily

[echo tinsel]

Is it possible to use set up a command with EntitySpawnAfterEvent?

[deep quiver]

You can also run it locally or on an server, I used it before, or some similar one. You can also go with googles translate api, I think it allows for a certain amount of daily free translations

[thorn flicker]

you can run a command anywhere.

does not matter

[echo tinsel]

I'm trying to make it run to replaceitems on certain mob

Thought that would be the best option, when the mob spawns?

[thorn flicker]

make the entity that is spawning run the command and use @s as the selector.

[echo tinsel]

Is there anyway you could provide an example?

[fallow minnow]

Is the one above infinite?

[echo tinsel]

I can make a script that's just a command?

[thorn flicker]

yes.

[deep quiver]

Idk never used it, I only ran the local thingy which is selfhosted, so its infinite

Not sure if their api even has a free tier, but from what people said here, you can just send a request without an key and it works 🤷

[true isle]

Is it possible to use a script to place blocks or features that aren't an actual feature into the world like the new api for features?

[fallow minnow]

i tried and it doesnt 😭

[distant tulip]

yeah, sadly they just respond with a message t go pay for an api key, lol

you could use github ai playground as a translator, they have a free api (limited)

[agile flicker]

player.addItem(new ItemStack("writable_book", 1))       

This doesn't work for me

Not a function

[distant tulip]

me neither

[agile flicker]

Is it because I'm using version 1.14 - server?

[distant tulip]

it is a container function, you can't call it in the player

use getcomponent, get the inventory component, and get it container, then use that

[agile flicker]

player.getComponent("inventory").container.addItem(new ItemStack("writable_book", 1)) 

Like this?

[distant tulip]

yes

[agile flicker]

Ok

[gusty bramble]

With a script is it possible to detect an armor stand on a red wool and If there’s a item at its feet it adds 1 to a scoreboard.

Take for example a armor sand named totem. It would check for the red wool, and if a totem is found at its feet it adds 1 to a scoreboard named “correct” and the “player” would be the name of the armor stand. And if any other item is found at its feet it adds 1 to a scoreboard named Fail and the players name is the name of the item?

This is for a automated way to track item sorting output for storage tech stuff. I should note I want the name of the armor stand to be dynamic so I can name it any item and it checks for an item matching the name.

Additionally I’d love if this could be applied to stack sizes. So white wool checks for 64 stackable items, light gay for 16s and gray for nonstackables for an example (so it checks for the correct stack size not any specific item)

If something isn’t clear please ask questions lol

[crimson kindle]

so I made a post asking about this, but i thought to ask here as well incase it got lost, but i was wondering if it's possible of making essentially lockable shulker boxes? I want it have a custom ui that prompts players to set up a "password" when it's first used and only open when interacted with a key that has the same name as their set password.

[valid ice]

Yeah, that’s totally possible to do

[fallow minnow]

what have u tried?

[crimson kindle]

I haven't tried anything yet as I don't really know where to start, but after consulting a friend I'm thinking of utilizing player uuid's and scoreboards to create a unique key for each shulker box (it would just have to be relinked after being broken if the player wants to relock it)

[fallow minnow]

yeah u can do that

you could uh

save the dynamic property on the shulker box itself

i think

and then when they place it grab the info and apply it

[distant tulip]

he is talking about the it as a block i believe

[fallow minnow]

yes

save the uuid and the passcode to the shulker

then when u place it save it on the world or player to see who owns it

and then if the break it re add the uuid and passcode to the shulker

[cold grove]

who needs me? got pinged

[crimson kindle]

if i wanted to make a completely custom chest with similar properties as a shulker box would that be possible?

[fallow minnow]

ummm

[Scripting][error] - ReferenceError: Native function [World::getDimension] does not have required privileges.

How to fix this i turn on of the api

[solar dagger]

Kinda yes but it's a bit more complex due to the data transfers

[crimson kindle]

I see, I'll keep looking into different methods then
Thank you!

[bold bison]

My brother [Scripting][error] - ReferenceError: Native function [World::getDimension] does not have required privileges.

[solar dagger]

You're using a before event?

[leaden elbow]

system.run

[solar dagger]

^ do that if you're

system.run(() => {
//Code here
});

[solar dagger]

Oh God this hurts my eyes, why is everything on the right

@bold bison what are you trying to do?

A mobCount near the player?

[bold bison]

Yes like java education

[solar dagger]

system.runInterval(() => {
  for (const player of world.getAllPlayers()) {
    const getEntities = player.dimension.getEntities({
      location: player.location,
      maxDistance: 15
    });
    console.error('Mob count:', getEntities().length);
  };
});

@bold bison try this

[bold bison]

Where do I put it in the script?

[solar dagger]

What does your file look like? Just put it anywhere

[leaden elbow]

oh well arabic things

[bold bison]

[bold bison]

I want Script spawn bedrock like java the spawn in the bedrock is so bad

[snow jungle]

How does setPermutation work? How in my block files can I define a seocnd texture, and when its interacted with, I can change the texture of the block?

[vast rune]

can i have some script with functions in one BP and then use them in another BP?

[shy leaf]

no

unless you make use of script event messages

[vast rune]

k

[rigid torrent]

What's the most performant way for me to give an effect to the player once a full set is equipped in stable API?

Ideally without any ticking

oh look new day new me

[true isle]

best bet is to just give the infinit effect on equiping the whole set. get all the equipment and if all are there give the effect infinit

[gilded shadow]

im pretty sure there was an event like Player Inventory Change

[hardy tusk]

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

Its experimental tho

Otherwise you might need to pull up some molang magic or so to make it work

[valid ice]

That event only covers the inventory though, not armor slots,

[gilded shadow]

Yes, but you can filter it to check if any armor moves from the player's inventory and then check for any new armor.

[prisma shard]

Wait how would you do it

Checking if the armor slot is empty,

would always return true

Because you cant detect interaction ig

[gilded shadow]

no?

[prisma shard]

Like only one time fire event, when removed armor , how

[gilded shadow]

i see

you mean it wouldnt be possible to know when player removes an armor peice or when it breaks

[prisma shard]

Yes

There might be a way

But i cant think of

[gilded shadow]

i guess combining multiple events like EntitySpawn event to check if player dropped an armor peice

could work

but if armor breaks it shouldnt trigger any event

[prisma shard]

yep

[valid ice]

From chest? Dropped item? Give command?
There’s a few edge cases to consider 😛

[warped blaze]

preview day 🥳

[agile flicker]

.triggerEvent
It is the /event?

[warped blaze]

yes

[agile flicker]

Ty

[untold garnet]

is there a way to spawn a naturally generated oak tree using script?

[round bone]

the closest thing you can do is to load a structure from your world/add-on, that is the copy of some tree

[untold garnet]

hmmm

then i should just construct one using fill then

[round bone]

just one basic tree?

[gilded shadow]

i hope they do something about this in upcoming previews

[valid ice]

Would be nice

[north frigate]

I made this while I was bored

[untold garnet]

i totally forgot /reload existed

i relog and log back in to refresh script lol

[north frigate]

noooo

[prisma shard]

bruh

bronoway

[north frigate]

Guys the bedrockdev wiki suggest me to use A code can someone tell me why?

[native patio]

Hey

[prisma shard]

How can i get the time spent on fillBlocks?

I want to make the message, in my WorldEdit addon.
Such as Filled out 90 blocks in "3" seconds

[shy leaf]

Date.now() logging, i guess?

[prisma shard]

hmm

I still don''t know how

[shy leaf]

you could do promise

[prisma shard]

Oh

[oak lynx]

yeah async

[shy leaf]

https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Promise/then

[prisma shard]

and just only Date.now()?

[prisma shard]

yes i know this

i gotta do return new Promise

[shy leaf]

yeah that returns time

[prisma shard]

Or do i do some math with it

[shy leaf]

in ms

[prisma shard]

Oh okay

I can convert MS to seconds

I'll try thanks

[oak lynx]

wait do betas drop on wedensdays or thursdays now?

[shy leaf]

shrug

[oak lynx]

i really need getBlocks() that works 🙏

[prisma shard]

what feature you want in getBlocks

getBlocks is getBlocks and just does its work 🤷

[oak lynx]

i need getBlocks() to return an array of Block

[prisma shard]

Yeah....? i think getBlocks() does it

wait lmme see docs

[oak lynx]

no it returns positions of blocks that fit the filter

[prisma shard]

Oh it returns BlockVolume

not a problem you can still gget the array from the BlockVolume

[oak lynx]

its positions

not blocks

[prisma shard]

block.location.....?

[oak lynx]

getBlockLocationIterator()

and like then just using getBlock() for each of them is too demanding resource wise

because saving a whole skyblock island (the area players can build in is like 100x100) is like a lot of blocks

[prisma shard]

mhm I see

[oak lynx]

if i could figure out a way to have blocks by count i could make a pretty well working algo

[prisma shard]

Do i Date.now() at the first before resolving then, Date.now() atlast, Then subtract both?

[honest wave]

How do I make blocks have crumble animation when I look at them just like on new cubecraft game

[ivory bough]

const far_away_family = world.getDimension("overworld").getEntities({
    families: "far_away"
})[1];

})[1] is the line that shows the error
[Scripting][error]-Unhandled

[distant tulip]

Just read the error

Expected type : string[]

Meaning it is expecting an array of strings

[prisma shard]

const far_away_family = world.getDimension("overworld").getEntities({

try in game instead of debugger

Thanks, thought I tried that but must have had a typo.

[distant tulip]

maybe you tried '

[sour sedge]

// lib/general/clamp.js
function clampNumber(val, min, max) {
    return Math.min(Math.max(val, min), max);
}

Hmm still didn't work

[distant tulip]

it did, mobile don't support the colors

[sour sedge]

cheers!!

pretty simple to implement on app, oh well

[prisma shard]

hey friend, you gave me a script which divides fillBlocks into 2 fillBlocks when reached max block limit right?
Where do i put code, when It reaches the max block limit?

[distant tulip]

blockVolume

[prisma shard]

Such as i want to show sendMessage(`max block limit of fillBlocks reached`)

like in this script

[prisma shard]

You surely split the fillBlocks in this script right, But i dont know where i can put the thing after each fillBlock

[prisma shard]

^

[prisma shard]

In this

[distant tulip]

i have no idea what are yo talking about
the script is already doing what you wanted

[prisma shard]

.........

[prisma shard]

Lemme explain you

This is the script which you sent, Is divides fillBlocks, if the max block reaches right?

Suppose it has reached the max block, Now i want to sendMessage

[distant tulip]

put it after if (totalBlocks <= MAX_BLOCKS)

[prisma shard]

Thanks

[distant tulip]

inside the if scope

[prisma shard]

okie

[distant tulip]

wain no, lol

[prisma shard]

So like if it still reaches the max block, the sendMessage will appear 2 times?

[distant tulip]

after the if, not inside

[prisma shard]

ohh okay

[prisma shard]

@distant tulip

[north frigate]

How to fill an area?

[distant tulip]

?

[prisma shard]

fillBlocks.

[distant tulip]

it only trigger one time
the second try is guaranteed to be less than the max

[prisma shard]

Like it just sent sendMessage(max block reached), so it happens 2 fillBlocks. And now even after it, It still reaches the max block again, Won't it trigger another time? Because it is splitting the filBlocks again

[distant tulip]

that not how the script work

[prisma shard]

oooooo

Then how does it work

interesting

I thought It operates 2 fillBlocks, If the fillBlocks reaches the limit

Then if it again reaches the limit, It does another fillBlock

That's what i understand from the script

[distant tulip]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1067535608660107284/1355521393285926972/ppt657.pptm_-_AutoRecovered.gif

[prisma shard]

mhm

Soooo

It execute fillBlocks as amount of the boxes which was split

?

[distant tulip]

i calculate the max cube possible without reaching the max and use that cube to split the area into same sizes

[prisma shard]

uh oh

So it doesnt fill the other area

[distant tulip]

🤦‍♂️

[prisma shard]

if it reaches fillBlock limit?

[distant tulip]

...

[prisma shard]

I AM understanding the image

[distant tulip]

you clearly not

[prisma shard]

But thats only what i understadnd from the image

[prisma shard]

My bad then, Can you describe :(

[distant tulip]

you understood nothing then

[prisma shard]

So first question. So does it only happen to be 1 fillBlocks?

And not execute another fillBlock?

But it has reached it limit, How it would fill that area

[distant tulip]

No

dude

[prisma shard]

:(((( i am going insane

[distant tulip]

it is spiting into smaller sizes and filling each one

[prisma shard]

okay, BUT as it has reached the limit, But the script of you will only fill inside the limit?

[distant tulip]

for (const chunk of chunks)

[prisma shard]

I thought your script, also splits the chunk outside the Max limit

[distant tulip]

...

i gtg

[prisma shard]

okay lol

Oh wait I understand

[prisma shard]

I UNDerstand, Now I also undertsand What i want.
I want to make it appear sendMessage(Max block reached) when it has done filling one chunk, and it is now going to fill another chunk. So the message should appear

[small depot]

did i just got ghost pinged?

[leaden elbow]

just to clarify, is player.isOp() in 1.21.70?

[small depot]

XD, i think this is how they write in their language, like from right to left instead of us, from left to right

still it hurts my eyes

[wheat condor]

The cursed part is that words are not backwards order is

[sharp elbow]

@small depot You might get a kick out of this https://open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2025/p3665r0.html

[distant tulip]

Just...Why

[small depot]

lol

i read everything

looks interesting

but its weird

[woven loom]

its being removed

[leaden elbow]

oh well

[woven loom]

we have new better way

check out recent log

[loud frigate]

Is there any profiler to see which part of a script is slowing down?

[wary edge]

Yes.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/documents/scriptdevelopertools?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable#using-the-minecraft-scripting-profiler

[loud frigate]

ty

[loud frigate]

omg why is scripting so slow. merely calling system.currentTick is 40% of my script time

[shy leaf]

did you use system.currentTick multiple times

[loud frigate]

yeah. one would thin that would merely be a variable access but no

can never trust this stuff

(its multiple time as once perblock)
solved this one by caching it myself

[ivory bough]

How to make a villager have a 50% chance to get renamed to "testificate" after spawning without villager json file?

[small depot]

idk im not sure if that thing is right

or we are dumb

but my script runs really fast and smooth

and that also happens to me

like 27 seconds

for a simple getEntities()

that doesnt make any sense

[loud frigate]

getEntities isnt that simple

that is precisely what i would expect a slowdown in

not a simple variable access

[wheat condor]

getEntities is a little bit more than a currentTIck

[small depot]

but not a 27 seconds slowdown

thats what i mean

[loud frigate]

unless you mean the one that gets all the enities and not the one that you pass entity query options

[wheat condor]

well 27 seconds in how many total time?

[small depot]

the thing is, that is not even showing up the watchdow slow script

[loud frigate]

tbh the scripting engine to the core is extremely slow

[small depot]

it should have crashed my game

[wheat condor]

isnt that the total time that that function run, not the time for the function to end

[loud frigate]

try to iterate over a 7x7x7 blocks cube and youll get kicked out for the watchdog timeout

[wheat condor]

that's why runjob exists

[small depot]

well you can use a volume for that or runJob

[loud frigate]

doesnt matter my point is that scripting engine is inherently very slow. that iteration size, even for blocks should be way faster

[wheat condor]

the 27 seconds i think are the total run time not the time that the single function took to end

[wheat condor]

well that depends a lot on your pc

[heady dragon]

where would i post to get help with an error code with my script

[wheat condor]

#1067535382285135923 create a new post with question tag

[sharp elbow]

runJob isn't great for systems that you need to finish

[wheat condor]

what do you mean by systems

[sharp elbow]

Say you are making a map where something happens and something expensive should occur before progressing to the next step.

Floodfill, for example.

You cannot rely on runJob completing that task within a finite amount of time, since its speed is hardware dependent

[wheat condor]

good point but i remind you that you can slow down the game by controlling the yield depending on the Date.now()

    init.customCommandRegistry.registerEnum("jayly:dimension", dimensionsEnum);
    init.customCommandRegistry.registerCommand(
        switchDimensionCommand,
        switchDimensionsCommand,
    );
});

function switchDimensionsCommand(
    origin: CustomCommandOrigin,
    dimensionId: string,
): CustomCommandResult {
    const entity = origin.sourceEntity;
    if (!entity)
        return {
            status: CustomCommandStatus.Failure,
            message: "No entity found",
        };

    system.run(() => {
        entity.teleport(entity.location, {
            dimension: world.getDimension(dimensionId),
        });
    });

    return {
        status: CustomCommandStatus.Success,
        message: `Teleported ${entity.typeId.replace("minecraft:", "")} to ${dimensionId}`,
    };
}
``` does this work

[distant tulip]

huh

[fallow minnow]

\nope

[fervent topaz]

anyone know how ot make custom command without namespace

[fallow minnow]

import { CommandPermissionLevel, CustomCommand, CustomCommandOrigin, CustomCommandParamType, CustomCommandResult, CustomCommandStatus, StartupEvent, system, world } from "@minecraft/server";

world.afterEvents.worldLoad.subscribe(async () => {
    system.beforeEvents.startup.subscribe((init: StartupEvent) => {
        const helloCommand: CustomCommand = {
            name: "creator:hellocustomcommand",
            description: "Celebration super party hello",
            permissionLevel: CommandPermissionLevel.Any,
            optionalParameters: [
                { type: CustomCommandParamType.Integer, name: "celebrationSize" },
            ],
        };
        init.customCommandRegistry.registerCommand(helloCommand, helloCustomCommand);
    });

    function helloCustomCommand(origin: CustomCommandOrigin, celebrationSize?: number): CustomCommandResult {
        world.sendMessage("Hello Custom Command!");
        const player = origin.sourceEntity;
        if (celebrationSize && player) {
            system.run(() => {
                player.dimension.createExplosion(player.location, celebrationSize);
            });
        }
        return {
            status: CustomCommandStatus.Success,
        };
    }
});

quite literally does nothing

doesnt even register it

[somber cedar]

Remove worldload

startup fires before worldload fires

[fallow minnow]

then i wont have privlages

[somber cedar]

ya

work as intended

[fallow minnow]

ah okay

[fervent topaz]

anyone

how to no namespcae?

for custom comand

[somber cedar]

No.

[fervent topaz]

no?

[fallow minnow]

yeah i thought it was possible?

guess its 1.21.90

[agile flicker]

chatSend is still in beta?

[distant tulip]

yes

[gusty bramble]

Can someone help me understand how I could detect if a note block is powered under an armour sand and if so get the name of the armour stand into a chat message

[prisma shard]

https://github.com/IMvampireXD/entityHurt-beforeEvent

i have not finished yet

i am still working on it

give my repo a star if u want updates later when it done :)

oops self advrertise noo

[fallow minnow]

fireeee

we can fully stop players from connecting now!!!!

and stil fetch their pfid and name!!

fire

And it doesn’t send the connect packet

[fervent topaz]

what does it even do rn

[sage sparrow]

hi there, anyone was able to update the modal forms?
I got toogle and sliders working but only textField is returning errors javascript formUI.textField(`Nome: `, { defaultValue: oldName.toString(), tooltip: "NPC Name" });
log:[2025-05-06 22:47:18:792 WARN] [Scripting] forceShow error: RawMessageError: Failed to resolve raw message from json: {"rawtext":[null]}

[thorn flicker]

you forgot placeholder text after label, it thinks you are trying to do raw message.

[fast lark]

Custom commands are now beta?

[warped blaze]

uhm, no preview today? 😞

[mighty igloo]

how do you see which player is running a custom command?

[warped blaze]

origin

[mighty igloo]

bro

i asked how

not what

[warped blaze]

you have the two parameters, origin and ...args, if the command has been executed by a player, then you just get origin.sourceEntity

[mighty igloo]

this?

[mighty igloo]

?

[fallow minnow]

origin.

origin is also uh

like CustomOrigin something

CustomCommandOrigin

as a type

system.beforeEvents.startup.subscribe((init: StartupEvent) => {
    const helloCommand: CustomCommand = {
        name: "creator:hellocustomcommand",
        description: "Celebration super party hello",
        permissionLevel: CommandPermissionLevel.Any
    };
    init.customCommandRegistry.registerCommand(helloCommand, helloCustomCommand);
});
function helloCustomCommand(origin: CustomCommandOrigin): CustomCommandResult {
    const player = origin.sourceEntity as Player
    if (player) {
        system.run(() => {
            new ActionFormData()
                .title("test")
                .body("this is a body!")
                .button("test button")
                .button("test button 2")
                .show(player)
        });
    }
    return {
        status: CustomCommandStatus.Success,
    };
}```

[mighty igloo]

you dont pass types though

[fallow minnow]

obviously

[warped blaze]

no

[fallow minnow]

you havent defined SourceEntity is anything

[warped blaze]

origin.sourceEntity

[mighty igloo]

can you make it say something custom when you dont have permissions?

[fallow minnow]

ya

[mighty igloo]

o how

[fallow minnow]

i think

uhh

idk

[mighty igloo]

so it shows an error there. how can I hide it?

it works properly

but it shows an error

[fallow minnow]

import that

[mighty igloo]

i am

[fallow minnow]

oh

ur not returning anything

return {
status.success
}

i meant

status: CustomCommandStatus.Success,

[mighty igloo]

?

[mighty igloo]

cool

[fallow minnow]

i believe next update they will have the ability to use them without the namespaces

[mighty igloo]

yes

how do you wait a second or 2

i dont know how to use a timeout

[fallow minnow]

system.waitTicks()

[mighty igloo]

I have a subscribe to send a message to welcome the player on spawning but it sends the message before the player fully loads in

well i think its because the world takes long to load

how do i fix it

[fallow minnow]

u can test if they move

or if they move their camera

or both

or just delay it

like

system.waitTicks(20 * 5).then(() => {sendmessage})```

[distant tulip]

or show a form and when it open close it and send your message

[mighty igloo]

is there a way to do a wait until they move thing

well how do i do it

[fallow minnow]

constantly get the players position and view direction

[mighty igloo]

bruh

[distant tulip]

import { world, system} from '@minecraft/server';
import { ActionFormData, uiManager } from '@minecraft/server-ui';

world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe((event)=>{
    if(!event.initialSpawn) return
    joinMessage(event.player)
})


function joinMessage(player) {
  let menu = new ActionFormData().title("test form")
    .body("ignore this form if it is still open for some reason...")
    .button("Close.")
  menu.show(player).then(data => {
    if (data.cancelationReason == "UserBusy") {
      return system.runTimeout(() => {
        joinMessage(player)
      }, 10)
    }
    uiManager.closeAllForms(player)
    player.sendMessage("Welcome to the server")
  })
}

[meager pulsar]

What is the new property override thingy for?

[wary edge]

Per client rendering.

[valid ice]

Per-player properties on separate entities

Kinda cool

[wary edge]

https://youtu.be/Crs2lXPKsKM?t=595

I helped Toycat showcase what you can do.

[valid ice]

What is all this?

[fallow minnow]

i think u can do this

const newlySpawnedPlayers: string[] = []

world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe((data) => {
    if (!data.initialSpawn) return;
    const player = data.player;
    if (!newlySpawnedPlayers.includes(player.id)) {
        newlySpawnedPlayers.push(player.id)
    }
});

world.beforeEvents.playerLeave.subscribe(({ player }) => {
    if (newlySpawnedPlayers.includes(player.id)) {
        newlySpawnedPlayers.splice(newlySpawnedPlayers.indexOf(player.id))
        return
    }
})

system.runInterval(() => {
    for (const player of world.getAllPlayers().filter(v => newlySpawnedPlayers.includes(v.id))) {
        const { x, y, z } = player.getVelocity()
        if (x > 0 || y > 0 || z > 0) {
            newlySpawnedPlayers.splice(newlySpawnedPlayers.indexOf(player.id))
            console.warn(`${player.name} moved!`)
        }
    }
}, 10)```

[mighty igloo]

it isnt working

[fallow minnow]

do mine

you can change the interval for it

as its currently at half a second

[mighty igloo]

?

[fallow minnow]

whatd u do

[mighty igloo]

bruh

im trying to send a welcome message

[fallow minnow]

okay all u have to do is add it under the splice

[mighty igloo]

im trying to run a function on the new players

[fallow minnow]

like here

[mighty igloo]

?

like that?

[fallow minnow]

yes

[mighty igloo]

k

its pretty delayed when i get in

[fallow minnow]

alright change the interval time

just remove it

[fallow minnow]

the 10 on system.runInterval

[mighty igloo]

what recording stuff are you using

[fallow minnow]

nvidia control panel

[mighty igloo]

software

hm

ok

[fallow minnow]

well

its nvidia settings

and i have overlay turned on

and a keybind for record start and stop

i think u can make it better actually

so its not constantly running

ya use this instead

world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe((data) => {
    if (!data.initialSpawn) return;
    const player = data.player;
    if (!newlySpawnedPlayers.includes(player.id)) {
        newlySpawnedPlayers.push(player.id)
    }
    const id = system.runInterval(() => {
        for (const player of world.getAllPlayers().filter(v => newlySpawnedPlayers.includes(v.id))) {
            const { x, y, z } = player.getVelocity()
            if (x > 0 || y > 0 || z > 0) {
                newlySpawnedPlayers.splice(newlySpawnedPlayers.indexOf(player.id))
                form(player)
                system.clearRun(id)
            }
        }
    })
});

world.beforeEvents.playerLeave.subscribe(({ player }) => {
    if (newlySpawnedPlayers.includes(player.id)) {
        newlySpawnedPlayers.splice(newlySpawnedPlayers.indexOf(player.id))
        return
    }
})

[sweet seal]

How to get parameters of a custom command?
I current have:

system.beforeEvents.startup.subscribe((init) => {
  
  const testCommand = {
      name: "test:test",
      description: "test",
      permissionLevel: CommandPermissionLevel.Any,
      mandatoryParameters: [{ type: CustomCommandParamType.Integer, name: "amount" }],
  };

  init.customCommandRegistry.registerCommand(testCommand, testCustomCommand);
});

function testCustomCommand(origin) {
  const player = origin.sourceEntity
  
  if (player) {
player.sendMessage(`You put the amount of: ${AMOUNT}`)
  }
  return {
      status: CustomCommandStatus.Success,
  };
}

[mighty igloo]

do you see that gap

the chat tip is that big

how do i remove it

its clunky when you get in the world

or how can I modify it

[fallow minnow]

the press t to return?

[mighty igloo]

where in the lang is that?

[mighty igloo]

yes

[fallow minnow]

uhh if u wanna fully remove it u have to do some json ui magic

[sinful swallow]

Hello, I'm looking to retrieve the texture path of an item/block using its identifier. Does anyone have an idea of how to do that?

[fallow minnow]

ya

[mighty igloo]

no wait. the blank bar isnt apart of it

[fallow minnow]

i think its ur message

[mighty igloo]

no

the message loads later

[fallow minnow]

are u sending a blank message somewhere

[mighty igloo]

no

[distant tulip]

import { world, system } from '@minecraft/server';
import { ActionFormData, uiManager } from '@minecraft/server-ui';

world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe((event) => {
    if (!event.initialSpawn) return
    joinMessage(event.player, "Welcome to the server!")
})


function joinMessage(player, message) {

    const delayedWelcome = system.runTimeout(() => {
        player.sendMessage(message)
        uiManager.closeAllForms(player)
    }, 5)

    let menu = new ActionFormData().title("test form")
        .body("ignore this form if it is still open for some reason...")
        .button("Close.")

    menu.show(player).then(data => {
        if (data.cancelationReason == "UserBusy") {

            system.clearRun(delayedWelcome)
            return system.runTimeout(() => {
                joinMessage(player, message)
            }, 10)

        }
    })
}

[fallow minnow]

not everyone loads in at the same time

some players have bad devices and join later

[distant tulip]

i guess

just had to fix it, lol

[fallow minnow]

yeah

[mighty igloo]

customized it

but the blank

idk

[fallow minnow]

has to be a message ur sending elsewhere

ohhhh

its

[mighty igloo]

nope

[fallow minnow]

the emote message

u tried to remove it

with lang

[mighty igloo]

what emote?

[mighty igloo]

hmm. i dont recall removing it

must be an error

bug

[fallow minnow]

no

its not showing

so

[mighty igloo]

weird because I even set its lang

to try and fix it

[fallow minnow]

what is it set to?

[mighty igloo]

what its set to doesnt matter. I was having the issue before setting it

i just set it to try and fix the issue

didnt work

[shy leaf]

whats new in 1.21.80 beta api, aside from custom commands?

[mighty igloo]

I use json ui but nothing that'd affect that

[fallow minnow]

system.beforeEvents.asyncPlayerJoin

u can now fully cancel players joining

or disconnect them

[shy leaf]

cancel players joining

lmfao

[fallow minnow]

you can get their name and pfid

and it doesnt send the connect or disconnect packet

which is amazing

[shy leaf]

wait whaaaaa

thats unexpected

[fallow minnow]

so you can finally fully ban crashers!

yeah its quite nice

[mighty igloo]

cool

[fallow minnow]

can be used in local worlds too!

[shy leaf]

i should change the code asap rn cuz

[mighty igloo]

got any good ideas for introducing the player?

[shy leaf]

my addon uses beta api but the version didnt change

and theres a change in server forms

[fallow minnow]

yup

have not looked at it

what is it?

[shy leaf]

me or MassaHex?

[fallow minnow]

you

oh yeah theres also

uh

Container apis

and a new event for container change i think?

[fallow minnow]

that might be next update though idk

[shy leaf]

it is on 1.21.80 beta api

[fallow minnow]

ik

i meant the inventory event thing

[shy leaf]

oh

[mighty igloo]

why is the panorama spinning so fast

[shy leaf]

ig we dont need to loop through every container slots now?

to find an item

idk how it works yet so i gotta find that out

[woven loom]

ye

[fallow minnow]

do you know about the inventory event?

i swear i saw it somewhere

[woven loom]

its in beta

[fallow minnow]

ohhh

yeah

[mighty igloo]

bro the shadows are infinite

unrealistic

sorry wrong place

[woven loom]

@fallow minnow

[fallow minnow]

fireeeeee

that will be amazing

does that mean we can finally stop players from picking certain items up?

if they pick it up remove it from their inventory and re spawn it

[fallow minnow]

oh wow we can do some dope stuff

[fallow minnow]

can i connect discord to minecraft? or just minecraft to discord

with server-net

[woven loom]

some ppl did it

[fallow minnow]

like if i want to read a channel and fetch certain messages

[drowsy scaffold]

should be possible, with a HTTP server and get / post

I think webhooks can do it better tho

[fallow minnow]

yeah

im using webhooks for sending messages to discord

but im uncertain on how to get discord messages

[drowsy scaffold]

can't you add webhooks to a guild?

[fallow minnow]

no clue

const netPromise = netLoad();
async function sendToDiscord(webhook: string, message: string, username: string) {
    const net = await netPromise;
    if (!net) return;
    const request = new net.HttpRequest(
        `https://discord.com/api/webhooks/${webhook}`
    );
    request.method = net.HttpRequestMethod.Post;
    request.headers = [
        new net.HttpHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json')
    ];
    const body = {
        username: username,
        content: message,
        allowed_mentions: {
            parse: []
        }
    };
    request.body = JSON.stringify(body);
    const response = await net.http.request(request);
    return response;
};```

[drowsy scaffold]

also, am I stupid or is the new beforeEvents.asyncPlayerJoin event that was included in server-admin in the newest update just kinda useless?

[fallow minnow]

why?

[drowsy scaffold]

we only get name and pfid, it's not even an invalid player instance so we have to get ID through some other means and the pfid isn't accessible in any other scope afaik

I'm not sure if namespoof is something that effects it too or not yet but

[fallow minnow]

you can enable something on bds to prevent that

also to force playstation users to use their microsoft username

msa-gamertags-only=true```

i have no clue how to use namespoof so i cant actually try it so

but i was told it patches it

[drowsy scaffold]

It's easy to do with protocol, but yeah msa-gamertags-only does force microsoft usernames

[fallow minnow]

would you be able to test it?

[drowsy scaffold]

I don't think protocol is updated as of rn

[fallow minnow]

oh

@cold iris told me about it

and hes a biggggg nerd so in a nice way

i trust him

[drowsy scaffold]

no I know that the msa-gamertags-only forces them, I'm just curious as to if spoofed names show up there or if it's true names

[fallow minnow]

yeah

HOPEFULLY it patches namespoof

[drowsy scaffold]

but even then, the event itself is just...

kinda there

I mean

[fallow minnow]

i mean

it doesnt send the player join or spawn packet so

they arent able to send any sort of packet when connecting

[drowsy scaffold]

that's looking to be the only redeeming factor of this currently, aside from that it's not seeming promising

haha accidental funny because it's promise based

[fallow minnow]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1122738040616517795/1128766496185798696/7BE799B3-0EA7-450F-AEA0-35ED7B96FD65.gif

i mean

u can fetch stuff i think?

like dynamic properties

and itll basically make them wait there

[drowsy scaffold]

I think the only real use case is when it's used in tandem with server-net to store names of people who send bad packets, which like you just said would need to be dynamic properties

[fallow minnow]

yes

or an external database which u can fetch

[drowsy scaffold]

okay that's fair

[fallow minnow]

while you're fetching it i believe itll make them wait

so no packets in or out from them

[drowsy scaffold]

it does, it just looks like a normal loading screen

[fallow minnow]

i just did that actually

well kinda

i used github pages and a json file on the website that i can fetch with banned player 💀

but its not dynamic since i can only read not write

[drowsy scaffold]

lmao interesting I guess

[valid ice]

Google docs

[drowsy scaffold]

didn't someone make a script resource for using google docs as a database 💀

[valid ice]

Yea

[fallow minnow]

world.afterEvents.worldLoad.subscribe(() => {
    world.setDynamicProperty("banned", JSON.stringify(["5bd5325456176e84"]))
    admin.beforeEvents.asyncPlayerJoin.subscribe(async (data) => {
        const bannedList: string[] = JSON.parse(world.getDynamicProperty("banned") as string)
        if (bannedList.includes(data.persistentId)) {
            data.disconnect("u smell like poop")
            console.warn(`banned player tried joining!`)
            return
        }
    })
})

[drowsy scaffold]

i guess so lol, the use case for this is really gonna come down to "do you get msa usernames or not"

[leaden elbow]

custom commands in 2.0.0 beta right?

did someone made a handler out of it already

[leaden elbow]

nvm just made it myself alr

[untold garnet]

is it?

i thought its for miencraft preview rn

[leaden elbow]

yeah its out

1.21.80

making a command builder rn

discord bot ahh cmd handler

[untold garnet]

ahhh i didnt realize its out

updating game rn

[leaden elbow]

whats the "origin" for?

s

[unique apex]

did you ever figure this out? im stumped

[leaden elbow]

(origin, param1, param2, ...)

[shy leaf]

can custom commands check if the player ran the command manually via chat?

[leaden elbow]

yep

[shy leaf]

ooo

[leaden elbow]

origin.source? i forgot

just console.warn json stringify origin

[shy leaf]

what about execute though

[leaden elbow]

it returns Entity

when player runs it

[unique apex]

i used a player parameter type and doing this just gives me undefined

[uncut sail]

can someone help me, in my world.beforeEvents.worldInitialize.subscribe when I am going to the world then it is not working, when I break the block and install it again then it works, how to fix it

[unique apex]

its changed to afterevents.worldload

[shy leaf]

thats only in beta api

[leaden elbow]

player selector?

[uncut sail]

Custom component block

[unique apex]

yes

[leaden elbow]

ooh it seems like its supposed to return an array

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1369513724804861983 (promotion)

[unique apex]

printing it by itself [object Object]

[leaden elbow]

well yeah

JSON.stringify(params)

console.warn(JSON.stringify(playerParams))

i think that returns player object structure

somewhat like playerParams[0].name or some

havent tested that params yet

[unique apex]

that works it prints id and typeid

[leaden elbow]

oh yeah

[unique apex]

now i just gotta try and get the name

[shy leaf]

ooooh no i forgot the workaround for early execution privileges

oop nevermind

[untold garnet]

custom command is cool i guess...

but we need playerHitentity before event

[solar dagger]

Why?

[shy leaf]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

i knew this day would come...

[shy leaf]

because the current way to cancel damages are super janky

[solar dagger]

Why do you need to cancel dmg

[edgy elm]

can anyone help how the new update in modal form work. I got this error recently

[Scripting][error]-Unhandled promise rejection: TypeError: Native type conversion failed. Function argument [2] expected type: ModalFormDataTextFieldOptions | undefined at <anonymous> (old_chestshop.js:727)

[shy leaf]

headers, labels and dividers are considered into the response with an undefined value

[leaden elbow]

wth is this

i showed form and it shows but that error keeps sending

oh damn its because of async function

[prisma shard]

nothing

[plucky light]

When I run updated npm commands to upgrade versions in vscode, do I need to remove older ones or does it do it automatically?

[prisma shard]

omg no way real? no more looping though container ?!

[leaden elbow]

it does automatically

js do @latest

[leaden elbow]

why does it log me 1.21.70 is the latest version something when i join world is it on manifest?

[distant tulip]

You need a discord bot for that

[leaden elbow]

no string autocomplete in custom commands?

oh i think its enum

[stuck ibex]

Guys i wonder if itemUse event can be ran multiple times? For example spamming an item, would that run a function multiple times? Can that be an issue?

[prisma shard]

How can i get how much percent of fillBlocks has been done?

Maybe i have to calculate the area, and get how much percent it has been filled

Idk how, can someone help me?

[prisma shard]

it would technically run the function and event multiple times, Not really a issue, unless the function your running is heavy

[distant tulip]

(chunks*100)/total chunks

[prisma shard]

uuh what

[prisma shard]

hmm okay lemme mess with it

hm confused about total chunk

its NaN

[remote oyster]

I'm pretty certain we spoke on this already. You can't cancel the damage this way because the entity being hurt is still taking place after it already happened. You wrapping it around in a beforeEvent doesn't change this situation.

ik

[prisma shard]

um can you help me

How can i get how much percent of fillBlocks has been done?
Maybe i have to calculate the area, and get how much percent it has been filled
Idk how, can someone help me?

I am splitting the chunks, and filling each cube of chunk. So it might be pretty much possible

@remote oyster Cany ou help

[prisma shard]

my split chunk is a object
from: {x,y,z}
to: {x,y,z}
i cant really dirreclt divide or multiply bcz its not a number
@distant tulip

[distant tulip]

i am talking about the number of chunks

you already have the array

see how many element is there and how many got filled

[round bone]

you're not able to perform this type of event wihtout rewriting entire system

[prisma shard]

hello guys.

[round bone]

also, you're using afterEvent version for a listener

I... finnafinest_

Made the best ever WorldEdit script in the world.

[prisma shard]

I managed it to work, No more help needed.

Testing out for 1 hour, and coding it

Finnaly

the best worldedit script!!

no issues, no errors, pure worldedit

            chunk.load(destination).then(async() => {
                const timeStart = Date.now()
                player.runJobStatus = false;
                fillBlocks(player, chunks, blockId)
                await new Promise(async(r)=>{
                    while (!player.runJobStatus)
                        await system.waitTicks(1);
                    r()
                })

                status[1]++
                if (status[1] >= status[0])
                world.sendMessage(
                    `Filled out ${count} blocks in ${(Date.now() - timeStart) / 1000} seconds`
                )
                chunk.unload(destination)
            })
        })
    }
})

/**
 * 
 * @param {Player} player 
 */
async function fillBlocks(player, chunks, block, blockFillOptions = {}) {
    const totalBlocks = getTotalCubes(chunks);
    let filledBlocks = 0;
    for (const [i, chunk] of chunks.entries()) {
        const blockVolume = new BlockVolume(chunk.from, chunk.to)
        await system.waitTicks(20)
        player.dimension.fillBlocks(blockVolume, block, blockFillOptions)
        filledBlocks += getCubesInChunk(chunk);
        const percent = Math.floor((100 * filledBlocks) / totalBlocks);
        player.onScreenDisplay?.setActionBar(`Filling area: ${percent}% complete`);
    }
    player.runJobStatus = true;
}
function getTotalCubes(chunks) {
    let totalCubes = 0;
    chunks.forEach(chunk => {
        const { from, to } = chunk;
        const xStep = Math.abs(to.x - from.x) + 1;
        const yStep = Math.abs(to.y - from.y) + 1;
        const zStep = Math.abs(to.z - from.z) + 1;
        totalCubes += xStep * yStep * zStep; 
    });
    return totalCubes;
}
function getCubesInChunk(chunk) {
    const { from, to } = chunk;
    const xStep = Math.abs(to.x - from.x) + 1;
    const yStep = Math.abs(to.y - from.y) + 1;
    const zStep = Math.abs(to.z - from.z) + 1;
    return xStep * yStep * zStep;
}```

Here's How i fixed it

incase someone wants to know

I feel like a pro coder😎

[round bone]

function getCubesInChunk({ fromVector, toVector }) {
    const xStep = Math.abs(toVector.x - fromVector.x) + 1;
    const yStep = Math.abs(toVector.y - fromVector.y) + 1;
    const zStep = Math.abs(toVector.z - fromVector.z) + 1;
    return xStep * yStep * zStep;
}

don't use keywords for variable names

[prisma shard]

why

its just the same

anyways ok

[round bone]

??

[untold garnet]

Why not?

[solar dagger]

I just don't see a reason to do so

[untold garnet]

other ppl do?
