Script API General

[remote oyster]

Why would I not be taking into account for the constraints and hardware limitations?

[thorn flicker]

because you said the end goal is just making code that works.

[remote oyster]

Then you misunderstood what I was speaking about.

[thorn flicker]

Then I guess I did.

[round bone]

I am JS/TS guy and I care about it

[steady canopy]

Most people just code with the goal of the script working even if it's incredibly slow

[thorn flicker]

yeah because they are new

they'll learn

[steady canopy]

Not essentially. I would say a big amount of people who's "interested" on learning this just wants to know the basics to do a basic addon for them or to share it to the public

[dusky flicker]

anyways using Object.values or a const array wont change thst much the speed, its just 5 items

[thorn flicker]

right

[round bone]

you're calling it every loop creation, so it does change a bit

[thorn flicker]

yeah, that's not a big deal.

[dusky flicker]

that really aint be that slow

an api call can be heavier than it

[thorn flicker]

how about you test it

lets settle this

lol

[round bone]

using a constant array will be faster than call of Object.values for every time

[thorn flicker]

instead of going back and forth, test it.

[remote oyster]

When I say "code that works", I don’t just mean code that runs or gets the job done in a basic sense. I mean code that performs well within the specific constraints of the environment, especially on mobile devices, where performance, and hardware limitations really matter.

That’s exactly why I sometimes choose unconventional solutions (unpopular methods): not to ignore constraints, but to better address them. If a standard approach doesn’t meet those performance goals, I’m willing to step outside the norm to make sure the final result is both functional and efficient.

[thorn flicker]

Thanks for explaining

[round bone]

why calling a function every time should be faster?

[thorn flicker]

im not going to argue

honestly idc that much

[finite totem]

if i wanted to make a custom trident, do i copy everything from the vanilla trident and just retexture it?

[thorn flicker]

you have to create your own stuff to mimic it aswell.

[finite totem]

like what

[thorn flicker]

the item.

dont forget about the enchantments.

[finite totem]

i dont want enchants on it, so its fine

[finite totem]

wdym the item

[thorn flicker]

?

[finite totem]

is it because its a 3d model when held

[thorn flicker]

the item for it.

[finite totem]

oh ok yea i understand what you mean

ofc i need to make my own item texture

[thorn flicker]

not the texture.

[finite totem]

?

[thorn flicker]

to make it shoot?

[finite totem]

ah ok

[thorn flicker]

well, throw.

[finite totem]

is there like a premade thingy that someone has made

that i can use

or do i need to make it from scratch

[thorn flicker]

there's probably a template for a trident yeah.

its not that hard though

[thorn flicker]

[dusky flicker]

const value = [
  "Head",
  "Chestplate",
  "Leggings",
  "Boot",
  "Mainhand"
]
const obj = value.reduce((acc,next)=>{
        acc[next]=next;
        return acc;
},{});
let i = 0;
let j = 0;
{
        const now = Date.now();
        while(Date.now() - now < 1000)
                for(const _ of value) i++;

        console.log(i);
}
{
        const now = Date.now();
        while(Date.now() - now < 1000)
                for(const _ of Object.values(obj)) j++;

        console.log(j);
}

console.log(i/j);```

usually dont get 2x faster using a constant array, yeah it does get faster.

When we talk about node it seems to be constant time. but yet your "solution" is faster

[finite totem]

i downloaded everything, now i have to rename everything

yay

fun

[thorn flicker]

thats easy.

[finite totem]

yea but tedious

[thorn flicker]

not if you use the replace function.

[finite totem]

ctrl+h?

[thorn flicker]

whatever it is for your software.

[finite totem]

ok

[dusky flicker]

@remote oyster can you help me? im thinking in a way of implementing the db using btree on memory(files), im thinking about each key of a node to be a pointer to another node, the thing is that the data would get fragmented, but for this i solve when i have something basic working. i'd like to know if you got some idea i could use to implementing the search on the db other than mine with b+tree and pointers. i wanna find some better ideas than this.
i thought in this because with it i could implement(with files), a way to point at some offset on the file and so just load that part and append it on the btree, which later i'd implement some kind of WAL

the implementation itself i can handle it by myself, the problem is thinking on what to implement

[loud frigate]

Use event .isFirstEvent to check if it's the first one and report on the bug tracker because there's no good reason that event should fire multiple time

[remote oyster]

That sounds like you’re aiming to implement delta updates, which is a solid direction. I have recently considered this same concept but haven't touched on it just yet. It’s definitely a powerful idea, especially for managing large datasets efficiently by reducing memory pressure and minimizing I/O operations. I’m not entirely sure how to implement it myself yet, but the approach seems feasible. It will likely involve some complex logic, particularly around tracking changes and managing file offsets, but overall, it’s a smart way to handle partial loading and updates.

[mighty igloo]

why is player interact with entity not detecting for all entities

[distant tulip]

use before event

[wary edge]

Use before event.

[mighty igloo]

thanks

[wary edge]

No.

[tender pier]

hello, does anyone knows if it's possible to add a tag to a block the same as setblockpermutation works?

[open urchin]

block tags are determined by block permutation

you can't control them separately

[tender pier]

oh, wait nmv

[dawn zealot]

system.runInterval(() => {
    updatePrestigeLeaderboard()
    updateRebirthLeaderboard()
    updateBlocksMinedLeaderboard()
}, 100)


system.runInterval(() => {
    for (const player of world.getAllPlayers()) {
        updateInvestments(player)
    }
}, 6000)
``` is it bad to have multiple stuff like this? if so how do i optimize it

[warm mason]

The difference is approximately zero.

[dawn zealot]

2 sec

there we go

forgot to update it

[warm mason]

#1067535608660107284 message

[dawn zealot]

?

[distant tulip]

spread the functions to different runIntervals, 100 105 110

[warm mason]

You can't optimize, max 0.000001 ms

[dawn zealot]

no so, one of them runs every 100 ticks, one runs every 6k ticks, is having multiple of them bad ?

[warm mason]

It depends on what the function does.

[dawn zealot]

i changed this

[warm mason]

Almost nothing depends on the number of runInterval

[distant tulip]

well, it is an improvement at least, the devs them self recommend it

[dawn zealot]

i have 4 of em

[warm mason]

Might as well make the loop through players asynchronous

[fallow minnow]

i think you should implement neutron splitting and certain mathematical algorithms to test each run interval accordingly

[distant tulip]

eh, that depend too
async is not a magic lag fixer

runJob might be better

[inland merlin]

Could do some sorta event instead they could hit or interact to update leaderboards? Just depends on how you want it to function

[dawn zealot]

i have multiple for like timed particles etc, im just wondering if having alot will cause issues

[fallow minnow]

well for particles

i would attatch them to whatever ur doing

and then yeah

[dawn zealot]

what

[thorn flicker]

yo, you are a json ui guy right

[distant tulip]

leave particles client side if possible

[fallow minnow]

yes

[dawn zealot]

so instead of world.spawnParticle i do player.spawnParticle?

[inland merlin]

Less intervals the better, could make a single interval and based on time past run stuff. This way only one runs.

[thorn flicker]

how is this not json ui
https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1379161004558127215

[distant tulip]

no.
when does the particle spawn?

[fallow minnow]

prob particles or something

something weird

[thorn flicker]

thats some fancy ass particles if so

[dawn zealot]

they need different spawn times 😭

[fallow minnow]

yeah uh

[warm mason]

#1379161004558127215 message

[fallow minnow]

i would attatch those to entities

[thorn flicker]

you dont believe in variables I see

[fallow minnow]

as locators

[dawn zealot]

why would i use entities to spawn particles what

[thorn flicker]

why are you responding to me with this

[fallow minnow]

well i guess it doesnt matter but atleast make them client sided

[dawn zealot]

which i do that how

[warm mason]

Well, you asked "how is this not JsonUI"

[thorn flicker]

I read his message dude.

[warm mason]

Okk

[thorn flicker]

its an entity

[true isle]

Yeah i used ticking also it lagged so bad I had to rewrite it

[dusty temple]

Oh lord...

[dusky flicker]

depending on the way im implement, if the same way for minecraft, i will be able to do not so much api calls, but memory would have to be stored in variables

probably i load lazily like that and only when required i write on the game, but damn thats too far ahead

i just dont think that it would be something good for every addon have its own code of it running

[dawn zealot]

5 reactions and not one of u have told me how to optimize it

[fallow minnow]

just dont be noob

[dusty temple]

Well if you're using that many particles I would probably make a spawnParticles function that takes in an array of objects, each with the name of the particle and the location, you can also have a namespace argument to remove the redundancy of putting it in front of each particle.

[dusty temple]

interface Particle {
  particle: string;
  location: Vector3;
}

export function spawnParticles(namespace: string, particles: Particle[]) {
  const dimension = world.getDimension('overworld');

  for (const { particle, location } of particles) {
    dimension.spawnParticle(`${namespace}:${particle}`, location);
  }
}

const y = -57.5;
spawnParticles('osuea', [
  { particle: 'common_glass', location: { x: 27.5, y, z: -20.5 } },
  { particle: 'rare_glass', location: { x: 27.5, y, z: -12.5 } },
  { particle: 'epic_glass', location: { x: 28.5, y, z: -18.5 } },
  { particle: 'legendary_glass', location: { x: 28.5, y, z: -14.5 } },
  { particle: 'mythical_glass', location: { x: 30.5, y, z: -16.5 } },
  { particle: 'money', location: { x: 27.5, y: -58.5, z: -29.5 } },
  { particle: 'money', location: { x: 27.5, y: -58.5, z: -32.5 } },
  { particle: 'money', location: { x: 27.5, y: -58.5, z: -35.5 } },
]);

Something like this ig, reduces some of that redundancy at least.

[remote oyster]

If you are able to cache the dimension at a higher level then you could eliminate having to make that API call with each interval.

[dusty temple]

Yeah that's true

// COSTANTS
export const OVERWORLD = world.getDimension("overworld");

export function spawnParticles(namespace: string, particles: Particle[]) {
  for (const { particle, location } of particles) {
    OVERWORLD.spawnParticle(`${namespace}:${particle}`, location);
  }
}

You can cache the dimension

I'd actually recommend having a constants file for storing all the dimensions in it

[rugged tinsel]

*if you're using module version 2.x.x, you'll need to make sure your file doesn't load during early execution

[rugged tinsel]

assuming you have no need for molang variable map, this syntax could work too:

spawnParticles('osuea', {
  'common_glass': { x: 27.5, y, z: -20.5 },
  'rare_glass': { x: 27.5, y, z: -12.5 },
  'epic_glass': { x: 28.5, y, z: -18.5 },
  'legendary_glass': { x: 28.5, y, z: -14.5 },
  'mythical_glass': { x: 30.5, y, z: -16.5 },
  'money': { x: 27.5, y: -58.5, z: -29.5 },
  'money': { x: 27.5, y: -58.5, z: -32.5 },
  'money': { x: 27.5, y: -58.5, z: -35.5 },
});

[remote oyster]

Batch processing. Even better.

[dusty temple]

True, batching it together would be way better actually.

[rugged tinsel]

personally, I also prefer keeping the namespace with the particle name, so I wouldn't pass in the namespace separately from the ids, but do whatever you like best

[remote oyster]

Impossible

[rugged tinsel]

as a general rule, if you have something like world.getDimension('overworld') multiple times, it will always be better to store it to a variable instead of calling the API every time. It's both easier to read and has less performance overhead when you store it to a variable

[dawn zealot]

gotcha

ty

[dusty temple]

export function spawnParticles(particles: Record<string, Vector3>, namespace?: string) {
  for (const particle in particles) {
    const loc = particles[particle];
    OVERWORLD.spawnParticle(`${namespace ? namespace + ":" : ""}${particle}`, loc);
  }
}

Here is the function that supports namespace or neither

[rugged tinsel]

this implementation has an issue, : will always be prefixed even if there's no namespace

[dusty temple]

There

Wait

[rugged tinsel]

type name is triggering me, but I'm just nitpicking now

[dusty temple]

Should be good, just looks ugly

I'll remove the type since it's unneeded

[dawn zealot]

    spawnParticles([
        { particle: "osuea:common_glass", location: { x: 27.5, y: -57.5, z: -20.5 } },
        { particle: "osuea:rare_glass", location: { x: 27.5, y: -57.5, z: -12.5 } },
        { particle: "osuea:epic_glass", location: { x: 28.5, y: -57.5, z: -18.5 } },
        { particle: "osuea:legendary_glass", location: { x: 28.5, y: -57.5, z: -14.5 } },
        { particle: "osuea:mythical_glass", location: { x: 30.5, y: -57.5, z: -16.5 } },
        { particle: "osuea:money", location: { x: -17.5, y: -58.5, z: -29.5 } },
        { particle: "osuea:money", location: { x: -17.5, y: -58.5, z: -32.5 } },
        { particle: "osuea:money", location: { x: -17.5, y: -58.5, z: -35.5 } }
    ]);

export function spawnParticles(particles) {
    const dimension = world.getDimension("overworld");

    for (const { particle, location } of particles) {
        dimension.spawnParticle(particle, location);
    }
}
```so something like this then

[rugged tinsel]

yeah, that looks fine, though I'd probably allow passing in a dimension as a parameter to spawnParticles

[dawn zealot]

this server is only 1 dimension only

[rugged tinsel]

all good then, I always do that anyway since I just like having options

[dawn zealot]

prisons server but ty for helping instead of just putting a skull emoji and not 💀

[dusty temple]

A small issue with this is it can't have duplicate identifiers

Unless there is something that can support it 🤔

[dawn zealot]

who needs multiple identifiers anyway

[rugged tinsel]

if you want a likely very minor performance improvement, you'd move getDimension out of the function and into top level, but honestly probably doesn't matter

if you're using 1.x.x APIs, might as well do it, if you're using 2.x.x, probably not worth it

[dawn zealot]

im using 2.0.0-beta yeah

[rugged tinsel]

yeah, dealing with early execution there makes it painful

could always do the hacky thing and delay your root import until after early execution

[dawn zealot]

see idek what that means im just making a server 😭 i just know what shit does etc i dont know the bts of how calling the api to do things etc

[rugged tinsel]

early execution is just a state the API is in when it first loads, basically means you can't do things like call getDimension at the top-level

[remote oyster]

In 2.0.0, I'd recommend initializing constants during worldLoad and exporting them. For data such as dimensions that won't change, it's better to keep it in memory to minimize I/O operations and improve performance. Its like comparing tomatoes to oranges.

But it's also personal preference.

[dawn zealot]

this is another language to me ngl

wait nvm think i get it

im just trying to make everything easy to read and optimized for myself cuz i get lost in my own files.

system.runInterval(() => {
    const chance = randomNum(1, 100)
    const percent = randomNum(1, 15)
    let decision = ""
    let currency = ""
    let currency_chance = randomNum(1, 3)
    switch (currency_chance) {
        case 1:
            currency = "money"
            break;
        case 2:
            currency = "gems"
            break;
        case 3:
            currency = "mine_dust"
            break;
    }
    if (chance >= 1 && chance <= 50) decision = "increase"
    if (chance >= 51 && chance <= 100) decision = "decrease"
    if (decision == "increase") {
        for (const player of world.getAllPlayers()) {
            if (getScore(player, `${currency}_invest`) > 0) {
                let amount = (getScore(player, `${currency}_invest`) / 100 * percent).toFixed(0)
                player.runCommand(`scoreboard players add @s ${currency}_invest ${amount}`)
            }
        }
        world.sendMessage(`§6Stock Update §8> §f${formatString(currency)} §ehas §aincreased by §f${percent}§a%%`)
    }
    if (decision == "decrease") {
        for (const player of world.getAllPlayers()) {
            if (getScore(player, `${currency}_invest`) > 0) {
                let amount = (getScore(player, `${currency}_invest`) / 100 * percent).toFixed(0)
                player.runCommand(`scoreboard players remove @s ${currency}_invest ${amount}`)
            }
        }
        world.sendMessage(`§6Stock Update §8> §f${formatString(currency)} §ehas §cdecreased by §f${percent}§c%%`)
    }
}, 3600)
``` like this for example

[rugged tinsel]

honestly not horrible, I've seen way worse

[remote oyster]

let OVERWORLD;
let NETHER;
let THE_END;

// Handle world load and cache dimension references
world.afterEvents.worldLoad.subscribe(() => {
  OVERWORLD = world.getDimension("overworld");
  NETHER = world.getDimension("nether");
  THE_END = world.getDimension("the_end");
});

// Export constants
export { OVERWORLD, NETHER, THE_END };

[dusty temple]

Yes, you could use my syntax previously, or if you wanna remove the need to have to type "particle" and "location" everytime, use this function

export function spawnParticles(particles, namespace?) {
  const dimension = world.getDimension("overworld")
  for (const particle in particles) {
    const loc = particles[particle];
    dimension.spawnParticle(`${namespace ?? ''}:${particle}`, loc);
  }
}

const y = -57.5;
spawnParticles(
  {
    common_glass: { x: 27.5, y, z: -20.5 },
    rare_glass: { x: 27.5, y, z: -12.5 },
    epic_glass: { x: 27.5, y, z: -18.5 },
    legendary_glass: { x: 28.5, y, z: -14.5 },
    mythical_glass: { x: 28.5, y, z: -16.5 },
  },
  'osuea'
);

for (let i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
  const dimension = world.getDimension('overworld');
  dimension.spawnParticle('osuea:money', { x: 27.5, y: -58.5 + 3 * i, z: -29.5 + i });
}

Use the for loop since objects can't have multiple properties with the same name 😞

@dawn zealot

[dawn zealot]

i think someone loves capitals

[rugged tinsel]

there's something so cursed about seeing SCREAMING_CASE on a non-constant variable

[rugged tinsel]

it's a naming convention usually used to say that "this variable is constant and can't change"

[dawn zealot]

oh right

[remote oyster]

Its technically a constant by right, but initialized as let to allow declaring it's constant value afterwards.

Yeah but it still looks cursed as it's using let lol

[distant tulip]

Sorry, was tryping a reply but something came up
To add up to what the others said, i see that you are spawning all the particle at the same time but different offset, a better option would be to make a main particle that you spawn using the script and then inside it in the resource pack side spawn the others using different offsets

[rugged tinsel]

javascript in general is just mental

[remote oyster]

True, but when you understand what it's doing it makes sense haha.

[dawn zealot]

so like this, then whenever im using the overworld dimension, just import it from index.js?

[rugged tinsel]

ideally, you'd have a separate file for it

like a constants.js, or dimensions.js, depending on how you wanna organize

[dawn zealot]

ah okay

[remote oyster]

Organizing makes writing your code way more manageable.

[dawn zealot]

my shi is organnized, but the stuff that requires runinvertal or i just slam it into index/main js file

[rugged tinsel]

I also think in this case you would've ran into circular dependency issues since you'd be importing index from the files you're already importing in index

[distant tulip]

Var would solve that problem
-# but it is even more cursed

[rugged tinsel]

😨

[rugged tinsel]

if I ever see var in a codebase I'm a part of, I'm running away

[dawn zealot]

like this right

[rugged tinsel]

yep

fire

[distant tulip]

The first line is not needed, var will work outside it scope

[dawn zealot]

also is there a native method for titleraw, my typings arent working for some reason

[dusty temple]

Some things are better left unseen by the world

Actually nvm

[dusty temple]

But hey if it works, it works

[dawn zealot]

😭

[rugged tinsel]

player.onScreenDisplay.

[dawn zealot]

wada faq

[rugged tinsel]

player.onScreenDisplay.setTitle() player.onScreenDisplay.setActionbar()

if you need to set the subtitle, that's part of .setTitle

[distant tulip]

me putting disclaimer in my old code before publishing it to the public

[dawn zealot]

like that right

my typings arent showing idk why

[rugged tinsel]

I still have early script api code from when I was first learning programming on my github

[rugged tinsel]

{rawtext: [{text:"test"}]}

I think the rawtext part is optional unless you need an array of things

{text:"test"} should work

[dawn zealot]

aight

[rugged tinsel]

even just "test" would work, unless you need translation

[rugged tinsel]

try restarting the TS server?

[dawn zealot]

[rugged tinsel]

holy

personally, I'd make each line a new string in an array and then .join them

[dawn zealot]

ive always done it like that, even before scripts were a thing

[rugged tinsel]

👍

[rugged tinsel]

pre-scripting commands were pain

[rugged tinsel]

I'm so glad I've stopped doing primarily commands

[dawn zealot]

back in my day 👴 i used to have thousands of function command for realms

[rugged tinsel]

what in the js-fuck is this 😭

[distant tulip]

lol, idk

[dawn zealot]

maybe im not so bad

😭

[rugged tinsel]

back in my day, I wrote 300 commands into one long chain of command blocks on a controller

[dawn zealot]

bro that was the shit

[dawn zealot]

id always get my friend with his keyboard to pick block them for me

so it would save 😭

[rugged tinsel]

I did the same thing, made one of the only plot-systems for a realm at the time

until the realm eventually started to die of performance loss because we had so many plots

[dawn zealot]

F

im jus making a prisons rn cuz theres not a single good one on bedrock

[rugged tinsel]

cuz it's not popular anymore

there was a couple good ones that were killed because they weren't popular enough

[dawn zealot]

it is in the realm com

[rugged tinsel]

I must be too out of the loop now then

[dawn zealot]

pretty sure i had the most popular prison realm for a year or 2

aquiver and project

but that was 3 years ago this month

im just replicating java like UI to get that java feel too

[dusty temple]

rookie numbers

[dawn zealot]

also quick question, do tags have a string char limit

[rugged tinsel]

yeah ok pc player

I've never seen you on an xbox

[rugged tinsel]

I think so?

[dawn zealot]

well shit

[rugged tinsel]

what were you going to use it for?

[dawn zealot]

uhh..

prepare ur eyes

[rugged tinsel]

if it's data-storage, use dynamic properties plz

[dawn zealot]

😭

i hate using dynamic properties

[rugged tinsel]

why 😭

they're so good

[dawn zealot]

shits so annoying when moving packs

[valid ice]

Tags are so 2020 🥱

[dawn zealot]

just resets

[rugged tinsel]

if ur changing ur uuids then yeah

[dawn zealot]

especially for realms, for realms u need to change ur uuids

to update the pack

[rugged tinsel]

I thought they fixed it??

[dawn zealot]

?

every way ive tried never works, changing version in manifest doesnt work literally nothing

[rugged tinsel]

huh, strange

I mean even MP packs have issues updating on realms

realms are just cooked

[dawn zealot]

thats my curent lb system

[valid ice]

bds goaded

fr

"but what about console?"

transferPlayers server-admin func

[rugged tinsel]

was about to say that

[dawn zealot]

im switching to servers anyway

after a month of realm tests

[rugged tinsel]

const floatingTexts = [...dimension.getEntities({
        type: "osuea:floating_text",
        tags: ["lb_blocksMined"]
    })];

wha

why

[dawn zealot]

?

[rugged tinsel]

why are you spreading into a new array?

[dawn zealot]

oh yeah did i mention i had AI do that for me cuz i was sick and cba

[valid ice]

hasn't returned an iterator for... a long time

[dawn zealot]

💀

[rugged tinsel]

what was that AI on 😭

[rugged tinsel]

like 2 years minimum

[dawn zealot]

chat gpt is good but only for like repeating or doing math

like what was it 2sc

[rugged tinsel]

it's very good at gaslighting you into thinking it knows math

it's tricked me up several times with its confidence

[dawn zealot]

export function fillAreaWithBlocks(corner1, corner2, blockDistribution, blocksPerTick = 100) {

[rugged tinsel]

not having my vscode theme in discord makes reading these so hard

[distant tulip]

playSounds is a thing?

[dawn zealot]

theres themes?

[dawn zealot]

yeah

[dusty temple]

No I made it myself

[rugged tinsel]

you don't use one?

[dusty temple]

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

declare module '@minecraft/server' {
  interface Player {
    playSounds(sounds: Record<string, PlayerSoundOptions>): void;
  }
}

Player.prototype.playSounds = function (sounds) {
    for (const sound in sounds) {
        const opts = sounds[sound];
        this.playSound(sound, opts);
    }
}

[dawn zealot]

where i see this

[rugged tinsel]

extensions

[distant tulip]

[dawn zealot]

i meant playSound

[distant tulip]

alr

[rugged tinsel]

my extension recommendations

[rugged tinsel]

questioned playSounds but not removeItems or giveItem 😔

[wary edge]

Batch rename in vscode is an interesting choice.

[rugged tinsel]

it comes in handy sometimes

I have no other way to do it

[distant tulip]

just looked at the screen and that the first thing i saw

[wary edge]

I use powertoys power rename.

[rugged tinsel]

I have not bothered to get or look into powertoys, just figured it wouldn't have anything I'd need

[dawn zealot]

this one is also good

[rugged tinsel]

I use this one with a custom binding, since vscode lets you do that

[dusty temple]

hey me too

[scarlet sable]

how do I save a dynamic property that contains an object?

[dusty temple]

JSON.stringify()

Keep in mind it doesn't work with functions and some other types

[scarlet sable]

ty

[inland merlin]

just a general database question dynamic properties vs scoreboard database..

scoreboard database saves on the world and doesn't care about uuids..

now if i use dynamic properties... its still per world, but now they have to keep the same uuid to keep data right?

i haven't really done much testing on data being saved, and i just need to know as server/realm owners might run into trouble

with dynamic properties and issues having to update uuid's

but keeping old data

[valid ice]

That is correct

dynamic properties are saved under the pack UUID in world storage, so changing the UUID changes what location the game looks for the data.

It doesn't technically delete the original data, as it's still saved under the old UUID, but it cannot be read unless you make a BP with that UUID.

[inland merlin]

can we close gui's yet?

like a crafting table?

i've seen unreliable damage... but not sure if thats been done yet

properly in api

thanks for clearing up the data question

as well

woah this might work

[valid ice]

uhhhh don't think that's possible

[inland merlin]

teleporting them away and replacing the table

and teleporting back

funky but might work lol

[valid ice]

In terms of hacky workarounds, it could be worse 😛

[inland merlin]

truth lol

[inland merlin]

is there a way to detect if they have closed the ui themselves?

wish there was some sorta event for that onCloseGui

hacky way again

is what i need lol

[valid ice]

Not sure about that one

[inland merlin]

all i could think of was some raycast checks after interaction with block... but its not accurate because of mobile

so idk

nvm, im just gonna have them claim a quest by checking their inventory and checking if they have the items.

[distant tulip]

try to open a dummy form and check for userBusy and use closeAllForms

[inland merlin]

That wouldn't work for vanilla forms right like crafting table or chest?

Or will this trick it to close vanilla forms

[inland merlin]

Ill give this a go!

[distant tulip]

that just to check if the user is in a gui

[fallow minnow]

hmm

should i save pfids externally?

or just on a dynamic property

its solely for getting player data

so it saves their pfid with their name

if their pfid is the same but name is different it updates their name

dont really know how to test if it actually works so

nvm it works

[inland merlin]

Ohhhh ok ty

That is genius

[fallow minnow]

i have this so far

so now i guess i should cache the data?

[round bone]

What database are you using as an external service?

[fallow minnow]

supabase

[round bone]

oh, nice

[dim tusk]

Hello again.

[round bone]

👋

[distant tulip]

Sup coddy

[dusty temple]

Any good Vector libraries for v2?

[wary edge]

The ones in #1067535712372654091 should still work.

[dusty temple]

ty

[shy leaf]

i kinda forgot if entityHitEntity fires after the attack damage

[tender pier]

Is there anyway to add an item to the players inventory without needing to spawn it?

I want to be able to get an item directly to my inventory when interaction with a block

[fallow minnow]

i saw that

[halcyon phoenix]

wrong topic lol

[fallow minnow]

😈

#REPORTED

[halcyon phoenix]

yes

[fallow minnow]

any suggestions to make this quicker or just better overall

its not slow but

what can i change

[halcyon phoenix]

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/1.21.80/classes/_minecraft_server.Container.html

[tender pier]

how

[halcyon phoenix]

https://jaylydev.github.io/scriptapi-docs/1.21.80/classes/_minecraft_server.EntityInventoryComponent.html

const inventory = player.getComponent("inventory")

const container = inventory.container;

container.addItem("minecraft:egg");

you can also use setItem to set an item on specific slots

[tender pier]

Thanks! it worked as expected

[halcyon phoenix]

no probs and goodluck

[round bone]

you can save every few seconds much bigger loads of data

[prisma shard]

function targetedBlock(player) {

    const block = player.getBlockFromViewDirection()?.block;
    const e = player.getEntitiesFromViewDirection( { ignoreBlockCollision: true })
    const entity = e.at(-1)?.entity;
    if (!block || e.length === 0) { return "Not looking at any Block or Entity" };
    if (block) {
        return `typeId: ${block.typeId} \nXYZ: ${block.location.x}, ${block.location.y}, ${block.location.z}`
    };
    if (e.length !== 0 && entity.isValid) {
        return `typeId: ${entity.typeId} \nXYZ: ${entity.location.x}, ${entity.location.y}, ${entity.location.z}`
    }

};```

someone helpppppppppppp

this is the most confusing function i ever made

it always shows the blocks

but never returns the entity

issue is it mixes up entity with block detection

but when i remove block code, entity works fine

[valid ice]

It returns block before entity, is that what you're experiencing?

So if both are valid, it will only return block

[prisma shard]

I think so

i am so confused

[prisma shard]

so whats the fix

[cinder shadow]

Has anyone gotten the custom commands to open up a form without giving this error? I'd be okay if it was at least just a console log but this is getting spit out into chat.

no idea how to work around this, because you have to use system.run to use await.

[prisma shard]

"because you have to use system.run to use await." ??

[cinder shadow]

With custom commands, yes

[valid ice]

switch the order, idk

[prisma shard]

could be ""because you have to use system.run **or ** use await."

[valid ice]

dunno what you're really after in the end'

[prisma shard]

guys i made this
am i pro

[cinder shadow]

What are you saying

ModalForm requires await, custom commands run in before and cannot run await

[vast grove]

Huh? Can't you just make the callback async? Or run an asynchronous function inside the synchronous callback?

[prisma shard]

i meant
either await system.waitTicks(1)
or system.run()
idk why you meant run() with await

[cinder shadow]

The screenshot I posted gets spit into chat with async as the callback

[vast grove]

Hmm well IG that's expected.

[cinder shadow]

Yeah, it's just really crumby and I'm hoping there's a workaround

[vast grove]

I don't think you can hang a command over several ticks

[cinder shadow]

Why does it have to be output into chat and not console log 😔

It still runs

It's basically a warning

[vast grove]

It probably executes it but the result is unexpected.

Couldn't you just use form.show(player).then()

Also probably because it expects CustomCommandResult not Promise<CustomCommandResult>

[cinder shadow]

I'll try it when I wake up. Completely forgot about that format, I always use await.

[valid ice]

[halcyon phoenix]

can you store dynamic properties on blocks?

[vast grove]

No

[halcyon phoenix]

im trying to store data on blocks

what's one way to do it?

[vast grove]

What kind of data?

[halcyon phoenix]

RF

I have a block that store power

should I just add Id to it's location and just set world dynamic property?

[vast grove]

Add it as a property on the block

Then set it via setPermutation()

[bold stratus]

I want ask.. can .js export .txt file for database?

or any file

[remote oyster]

If BDS, yes, but if Realms, then no (use Dynamic Properties in this situation).

[bold stratus]

is realm same to single player world?

[halcyon phoenix]

sorry but I didn't get that, can you explain more?

[scarlet sable]

Are custom commands in-game yet?

[shy leaf]

its available in beta api

[halcyon phoenix]

what can you do with custom commands?

[distant tulip]

you can add custom commands to the game, can you imagine?!

[sly valve]

Adding Custom Commands

[halcyon phoenix]

WHAT

Lol

also is there any way to get the id of every block in the game?

[distant tulip]

const blockIds = BlockTypes.getAll().map(b=>b.id)

[halcyon phoenix]

Thanks 🙏

[cinder shadow]

apparently form.show(player).then() doesn't functionally work different from using await form.show(player). I get the same error.

well actually, it's worse, because the form doesn't even open

[wintry bane]

Is it possible to detect when the player eats something without custom components? Like when someone finishes eating an apple or a sweet berry.

[warm mason]

Can you tell me what the problem is?

[cinder shadow]

I'm trying to open a form via custom commands. Unfortunately they run in a before state so they don't have the required privileges to use await. However, when using system.run(), it will always output a warning into chat.

[warm mason]

show code

[cinder shadow]

export async function resetStatsPage(source) {
    const player = source.sourceEntity;
    const resetCode = Math.round(Math.random() * 1e6);
    const form = new ModalFormData()
    form.title(`%settings.reset_skills.title`)
    form.textField(`%settings.reset_skills.question\n\n${resetCode}\n\n§c%settings.reset_skills.warning`, 'Enter Code Here');
    form.show(player).then(response => {
        if (!response.canceled) {
            if (response.formValues == resetCode) {
                player.sendMessage(`§7§o%settings.reset_skills.confirm`);
                resetDynamicProperties(player);
                resetScoreboards(player);
                player.triggerEvent('runecraft:constitution_0')
            }
            else {
                player.sendMessage(`§7§o%settings.reset_skills.failed`);
            }
        }
    })
}```

switched it off of await atm to test .then

[wintry bane]

Thanks

[somber cedar]

Show how you register the comamnd

Oh wait

the function is async so it doesn't work

[warm mason]

asynchronous functions return Promise

and it expects a specific object or undefined

The only thing left to do is not to use asynchronous functions

or like this:

export function resetStatsPage(source) {
    system.run(async () => {
        const player = source.sourceEntity;
        const resetCode = Math.round(Math.random() * 1e6);
        const form = new ModalFormData()
        form.title(`%settings.reset_skills.title`)
        form.textField(`%settings.reset_skills.question\n\n${resetCode}\n\n§c%settings.reset_skills.warning`, 'Enter Code Here');
        const response = await form.show(player)
        if (!response.canceled) {
            if (response.formValues == resetCode) {
                player.sendMessage(`§7§o%settings.reset_skills.confirm`);
                resetDynamicProperties(player);
                resetScoreboards(player);
                player.triggerEvent('runecraft:constitution_0')
            }
            else {
                player.sendMessage(`§7§o%settings.reset_skills.failed`);
            }
        }
    })
}

[distant tulip]

that won't work

[cinder shadow]

it actually is working

[distant tulip]

what...

[cinder shadow]

I swear I tried this last night

[warm mason]

why?

[cinder shadow]

I tried it last night and it still sent out the warning message in chat... but that was before I removed the async from the function

[distant tulip]

await work only in async

[cinder shadow]

system.run is the async

[distant tulip]

ah

yeah

mb

[warm mason]

[cinder shadow]

Damn, so I still had the error because the function itself was an async

thanks

[somber cedar]

TypeScript would have told you that

[cinder shadow]

I don't care what TypeScript would have said to me

[distant tulip]

maybe skill issue, but typeScript slow me done a lot, and it is not like i don't know what to type and waste time searching stuff up

[cinder shadow]

Don't worry, typescript also did not say anything that the in game warning messages did not already say

In conclusion, typescript is useless

case closed

[somber cedar]

The first one????

[cinder shadow]

It's honestly worse, because the first "error" isn't an error

[distant tulip]

i wouldn't say that, but it is not as big of a deal to me, maybe to people who got used to it, but meh.
i don't see myself changing that any time soon, unless people who i work with use it

[distant tulip]

"let's throw an error so the user fix it and we remove his fix when he compile it"

[cinder shadow]

Just another typescript L stay losing

[somber cedar]

VSCode and bridge uses typescript, without it you probably coding this in notepad

[prisma shard]

what

it depends on file extension

.js -> JS

.ts -> TS

not depend on coding software

VScode both supports TS and JS including all languages

[distant tulip]

bruh what

[somber cedar]

I mean the code editor's source code is TypeScript

[distant tulip]

one thing for sure, it is not running using it

[fallow minnow]

is this good structure

Join:
If player is in external db cache to dynamic property
If not, set external db and cache

Leave
Update external db and delete from cache

[round bone]

I hope there will be a special place for users that are hating TS and loving pure JS

[pallid portal]

warning: rant

Props to those who can do scripting. And major props for those who manage to do incredible things with scripts in Minecraft.

Long story short, I learned how to make addons from looking at how addons work. But with scripts, I opted out of because I did not see a need to learn a whole coding language for this pet project/hobby.

I have this addon that has an error message like this:
[Scripting][error]-TypeError: cannot read property 'typeId' of undefined at onTick (__bundle.js:1)

And it is spammed like crazy.
When I checked the offending code... Well. I am not going to unravel this ball of spaghetti code to find whatever error it has.

Here is the snippet for reference.
I don't expect anyone to bother with it, nor care to share what addon it is. Though wanted to share my frustration at this.
All of that code just to have a block generate crystals like a geode is insane.

Now I have to make a copycat for my friends because the want this to work.
But I cannot be bothered to fix this mess, nor pester the creator to do so either.

I'll make my own addon that lets the player craft their pretty crystals in as many colours as the pride flag has.

[amber granite]

But it s encoded._.

[pallid portal]

encoded, encrypted, or given funny names for its components.
It has an error that the game supposedly does not like.

[amber granite]

And ... How supposed we work on it ?

U need to remake it i guess

[cinder shadow]

Yeah I don't see the point of this, did you want help or not?

Part of finding the error is reading the error

the TypeId is undefined, you are looking at inventory slots that are empty

[distant tulip]

the whole script is one line and obfuscated, so there is no point

[cinder shadow]

oh, wait true

I figured the error they were showing was from the unobfuscated version

but that makes a lot more sense given it's on line 1

[prisma shard]

huh lmao what

[warm mason]

Conclusion: Don't obfuscate scripts

[dusty temple]

Is this ragebait

[dusty temple]

It's good on the long run, if ur struggling writing types then thats on u not the language

[amber granite]

I m writing code because it s fun :-:

never ;)

[round bone]

did someone just removed a glaze of the best language ever?

export type ts = Omit<APIGeneral, "Typescript">

[amber granite]

Then js

[prisma shard]

You use Microsoft Windows 10 to make scripts in Microsoft VSCode for Microsoft Minecraft Bedrock using Microsoft TypeScript

[warm mason]

python?!?!?!?!?

[amber granite]

Yes

[warm mason]

BRUHHHHHHHHH

[wintry bane]

Chat Gee bee dee can PYTH me ON that

[prisma shard]

python === garbage 🗑️

[warm mason]

the slowest

[amber granite]

C++ is better :-:

[dusty temple]

Performance-wise

[wintry bane]

literally coughing baby vs hydrogen bomb

[round bone]

#include <iostream>
int main() { std::cout << "hello, world" << std::endl; return 0; };

just kidding

But that is indeed two lines

[wintry bane]

one line of code like some genius who obfuscated it

[round bone]

#include iostream>
int main() {

you don't have to add return 0 in newer compilers

Oh

[wintry bane]

C++ for script API when

[prisma shard]

noooooo

not me having to use that after learning js

learn TypeScript at first

[wintry bane]

GODOT

[warm mason]

I need this because C++ is faster

[wintry bane]

fuck it C# it is

[amber granite]

So

What s new in the api ?

[fallow minnow]

typesdcript so much better than js

[wary edge]

That depends on how long youve been gone.

currently they require namespaces but soon they wont

[wary edge]

They still require namespace.

[fallow minnow]

well yes but they wont be required to be shown when using them

So technically i can transfer players realm to realm?

[fallow minnow]

idk if they allow direct connection to iips

i highly doubt it

[fast lark]

Could you tell me how to get the ip?

So i can test my theory

[fallow minnow]

uhh just use a certain client

[nova wraith]

Its possible to add cooldown to system.run? I'm using it to run something when the player is sneaking, but it is playing every tick if I keep pressing shift, I want it to play when I click shift, and have a 5 seconds cooldown for me to use it again

[wary edge]

Youll need to create your own timer.

I personally hate when people obfuscates addons... I think that's so dumb and more when it's a small script that does something very simple like bro no one is gon steal ur sh.

So, just to piss them off I made a private AI deobfuscation tool, there you go.

You can try to fix the error now 👍🏼

[stark sun]

Hello, does anyone know of any script or code that would allow an entity such as the sniffer to hatch from an egg block after a period of time?

[amber granite]

:-:

You can make a block :-: save it s location

After some amount of time

Replace it with air

Spawn an entity

[stark sun]

Exactly, but how can I write that? Is there some kind of template?

Sorry, I just joined the server and I barely know how to navigate the server and for the moment I don't know how to make scripts. I want to learn.

But I would be very grateful if you helped me.

[deep quiver]

Read the wiki first and then ask

[halcyon phoenix]

you've been asking that since yesterday

you should've used that time to learn the basics

[distant tulip]

use custom components and random tick the block, add some logic for the time and remove the block then spawn the entity

[nova wraith]

Anyone 😔

[distant tulip]

just decrease your interval..?

[shy leaf]

either decrease your interval, or store the time (system.currentTick is recommended for gameplay) in dynamic properties or memory and compare check

[nova wraith]

I dont know how to :/

[nova wraith]

if (player.isSneaking && (player.isOnGround && (!player.hasTag("dashs")))) {
             player.runCommand('function dash2')
             player.applyKnockback(getPl('dc_velocity').x, getPl('dc_velocity').z, 3, 0.3)
              system.runTimeout(() => {
                  player.runCommand('function dash');
             }, 2)
          }

My 100% original code

It uses timeout

Idk about systenRun yet

Oh wait I messed it up

[shy leaf]

const tick = system.currentTick;
if (player.__cooldown > tick) return;
player.__cooldown = tick + 20;

this is just a simple code of cooldown

[nova wraith]

This is inside system.runTimeout

💀

[shy leaf]

for anything cooldown related, i recommend using stuff like that

instead of runTimeout or interval

[nova wraith]

I really need to focus on learning before asking questions

[dusty temple]

I recommend that

It's always good to learn the language your using before using api's involved with it

[nova wraith]

Yeah, for now I'm gonna try to make a cooldown system using other methods

[halcyon phoenix]

what does .__ do?

[dusty temple]

No I highly recommend doing what they sent

Don't use system.runTimeout

[nova wraith]

I could, but currently I don't have enough knowledge on how to do it, so for now I will try to use simple methods, like animation controllers and stuff

[dusty temple]

Dw it's very simple, when you create a new world and there are players actively in it, a timer is constantly incrementing by 1 per tick. That is what

system.currentTick

is.

When you do

if (cooldown > tick) return

It's checking if the current timer is less than the cooldown YOU created.

player.__cooldown = tick + 20;

All this is saying is the cooldown is exactly 1 second.

The reason why you don't do system.runTimeout is because if you /reload or restart the world, the cooldown will break

Relying on the world's currentTick will ensure that no matter what happens, it will run after the time you specified

[nova wraith]

Actually, I want the cooldown to reset when i leave the world

[dusty temple]

That's fine but currentTick will ensure no other potential issues happen with it other than breaking the cooldown. You can set all the cooldowns to be 0 when the world is loaded in that case

But if you want to use other methods that's fine, it is a learning experience after all

[nova wraith]

I think I got it, I will give it a try

[nova wraith]

const tick = system.currentTick;
if (player.__cooldown > tick && (player.isSneaking && (player.isOnGround))) {
     player.runCommand('function dash2')
     player.applyKnockback(getPl('dc_velocity').x, getPl('dc_velocity').z, 3, 0.3)
       system.runTimeout(() => {
         player.runCommand('function dash');
     }, 2)
};
player.__cooldown = tick + 100;

Could you analyze it?

[shy leaf]

temporary property

(i think) __ part is for making sure that you dont confuse it as a property from API

[halcyon phoenix]

thanks I just reasearched it and it's somehow called name mangling what a weird way to call it

[shy leaf]

i think temporary property is a better way to call it lol

[shy leaf]

you prolly should do

player.__cooldown <= tick

also put player.__cooldown = tick + 100 in the if check, since you want to refresh cooldown only when you sneak

[nova wraith]

Where it should be Inside the .js file? Because most of the scripts are Inside something, like a function or something else

[shy leaf]

inside the if check, the one you posted there

[dawn zealot]

first time making an auction house works for all that offline stuff too:)

[halcyon phoenix]

what did I do wrong?

[dusty temple]

show generation.js

and code its referenced in

[halcyon phoenix]

oh wait I forgot to import files

no errors now I just forgot to import the files

[halcyon phoenix]

setlore was triggered but it doesn't show on the item

do you need some components?

[shy leaf]

iirc you need to set the item back?

i forgot

[vast grove]

Yes. You need to set the item once you set the lore

[halcyon phoenix]

oh yeah

[halcyon phoenix]

yep thanks

is it possible to setitem without needing the slot?

welp looks like that's impossible

[halcyon phoenix]

what's one way to update the item?

setting the item requires a slot and I have no idea how to get current slot

forgor you could do these
setEquipment('Mainhand', weapon)

thanks god I have my past stuff

cool thank yall

[sage portal]

does anyone know reasons why the hasTag function would ever occasionally fail to run in a situation like this? I've been running tests while trying to clear up error logs and idk what causes this to happen sometimes.

const entities = [...overworld.getEntities(), ...nether.getEntities(), ...the_end.getEntities()].filter(entity => entity?.isValid())
    entities.forEach((entity) => {
        if (entity?.hasTag("test")) {}
})

[stark kestrel]

data for players are saved in worlddynamicproperties?

[warm drum]

.

[nova wraith]

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

const tick = system.currentTick;
if (player.__cooldown <= tick && (player.isSneaking && (player.isOnGround))) {
     player.runCommand('function dash2')
     player.__cooldown = tick + 100;
     player.applyKnockback(getPl('dc_velocity').x, getPl('dc_velocity').z, 3, 0.3)
       system.runTimeout(() => {
         player.runCommand('function dash');
     }, 2)
};

Something isn't right...

[sharp elbow]

Invalid entities is my guess. Try entity?.isValid && entity.hasTag("test")

[halcyon phoenix]

mc.world.beforeEvents.playerInteractWithBlock.subscribe(async (e) =>{
    mc.system.run(() =>{
        e.cancel = true;
        const {itemStack, player} = e;
        if (itemStack.typeId == "tm:transmutator") {
            console.warn("TRANSMUTATE");
            let currentEnergy = itemStack.getDynamicProperty("currentEnergy") - 1;
            let maxEnergy = itemStack.getDynamicProperty("maxEnergy");
            itemStack.setDynamicProperty("currentEnergy", currentEnergy);
            itemStack.setLore([`Life Energy:`,`${JSON.stringify(currentEnergy)} / ${JSON.stringify(maxEnergy)}`]);
            
            player.getComponent('equippable')?.setEquipment('Mainhand', itemStack);

            
        };
    })
});

why does sonsole.warn() triggers 7 times?

[sage portal]

it's upsetting how this works because I've already filtered out invalid entities from the array lol.

[sharp elbow]

Ah, I didn't even see that. Then realistically the condition shouldn't make a difference

[sage portal]

it's my if (true) {} problem all over again

[thorn flicker]

check if the isFirstEvent property is true.

[halcyon phoenix]

nice they have that I thought I was gonna mkae my own one

[nova wraith]

What's wrong with this code?

[amber granite]

@nova wraith

Does it work one time ?

[nova wraith]

Didn't worked at all

[amber granite]

:-:

Add while loop

While ( true ) {};

[shy leaf]

what

WHY.

why would you add while loop

[nova wraith]

When I loaded the world the main script was malfunctioning

[nova wraith]

This is a .js file btw

[amber granite]

Because....
If statement will work once

[halcyon phoenix]

put it inside a loop

it will not run at all because it is not being called

[nova wraith]

I noticed that, but I can't figure out how to make it run

[amber granite]

Wait a minute

It s full of errors

Where did u find fhe player object

Do that

[nova wraith]

I don't know...

[amber granite]

for ( const player of world.getAllPlayers()) {
//Put code here
}

[nova wraith]

import { system, world, EntityComponentTypes, ItemStack } from "@minecraft/server";
import { HCFComponentManager } from "./CustomComponents/manager";

for ( const player of world.getAllPlayers()) { 
const tick = system.currentTick;
if (player.__cooldown <= tick && (player.isSneaking && (player.isOnGround))) {
     player.runCommand('function dash2')
     player.__cooldown = tick + 100;
     player.applyKnockback(getPl('dc_velocity').x, getPl('dc_velocity').z, 3, 0.3)
       system.runTimeout(() => {
         player.runCommand('function dash');
     }, 2)
  };
}

Like this?

[amber granite]

Yes

Then add a loop

While loop

import { system, world, EntityComponentTypes, ItemStack } from "@minecraft/server";
import { HCFComponentManager } from "./CustomComponents/manager";
while ( true ) {
for ( const player of world.getAllPlayers()) { 
const tick = system.currentTick;
if (player.__cooldown <= tick && (player.isSneaking && (player.isOnGround))) {
     player.runCommand('function dash2')
     player.__cooldown = tick + 100;
     player.applyKnockback(getPl('dc_velocity').x, getPl('dc_velocity').z, 3, 0.3)
       system.runTimeout(() => {
         player.runCommand('function dash');
     }, 2)
  };
}}

It most work

[nova wraith]

I'm gonna test it

[amber granite]

Wait

@nova wraith

getPl ?

[nova wraith]

Didn't worked

[nova wraith]

It's part of the dash system

[prisma shard]

why while(true) loop, you could use system.runInterval()

[gilded shadow]

im trying to use the debugDrawer to add a line from pos1 to pos2 but its not showing up in my world, am i doing something wrong here?

[night acorn]

is there a way to have dynamic properties on blocks? not states

i need to store a player name as an owner, but block states are static and have a maximum of 16 permutes per state

[wary edge]

No. Best you can do is store it on a world or entity.

[night acorn]

damn

[wheat condor]

world.setDynamicProperty(JSON.stringify(block.location), player.name)

[night acorn]

i had a system like that before but it was horrible so ill redo it and maybe share it

[prisma shard]

👆
and then to get that block again:

dimension.getBlock(world.getDynamicProperty(player.name))```

[uncut lynx]

how tf do i statically rotate an entity to adjust for facing direction ???

[wheat condor]

nope

[uncut lynx]

like up/down/north/south/east/west

[prisma shard]

huh

idk

[wheat condor]

const owner = world.getDynamicProperty(JSON.stringify(block.location))

[prisma shard]

why you want owner

you want the block itself

[wheat condor]

why do you want the block

[night acorn]

pretty sure theres a set rotation thingy

[prisma shard]

becuase he trying to save block in dynamic prop?!?!?
your just saving player.name

[wheat condor]

if you checking who is linked to this block you need to get the owner not the block

[uncut lynx]

okay but how

[wheat condor]

and its also wrong couse never set a dynamic property as player.name

[prisma shard]

u just did

hmmm i must have messsed up the parameter argument order

lol srry

[night acorn]

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

[wheat condor]

identifier: blocck.location
value: player.name

world.getDynamicProperty(location) not getDynamicProperty(player.name)

[prisma shard]

hmmm k

but what you then do with the player.name

idk why u saving the owner

[wheat condor]

if you want to get the blocks from the owner: world.getAllDynamicProperties().filter(([k,v]) => v == player.name)

[prisma shard]

ahhhhh i see

[wintry bane]

Is it possible to send data to another add-on? Like getting an array from another add-on.

vector2 = 2 dimensional vector """"coordinates"""" {x,y}

[uncut lynx]

thanks

[prisma shard]

idk why ppl do new Vector(x,y,z) using external class

{x, y, z } is the same

since mojang made it as interface

[uncut lynx]

yup

but in js it at least indicates a type

not like that's a problem in ts (:

how do i "tie" entity to block

ohh via properties

[prisma shard]

wdym tie entity to block

leash? it has methods for that

[uncut lynx]

nop i meant tie so block tied to entity knows which entity is his etc

[wary edge]

That is a planned feature Mojang wants to add.

Like bees/beehive and creaking/creaking heart

Hey, when i use entity.setRotation() it doesn't instantly set the rotation to the value but i can see the entity like taking a turn, is there any way to remove that "animation" or whatever that is

[gilded shadow]

do i need to set location and endLocation after creating the object?

[gilded shadow]

maybe teleport?

[steady canopy]

I'm trying to set the rotation not it's location

[gilded shadow]

no you can rotate the entity while teleporting it to the same location

no need to change its location

mangling is the name of the process to simply "obfuscate" names, generslly functions. in compilers, when you compile a function, the normal is to not be able to see the name of the function in the binary output, but with "no mangle" you disable it and make it possible

im on preview but it doesnt work for me

[gilded shadow]

yes, its a Vector3 object (Player.location)

[prisma shard]

it should.

[gilded shadow]

const box = new DebugBox({ x: 0, y: 173 + 0, z: 0 });
box.bound = { x: 2, y: 173 + 2, z: 2 }; // required for debugbox
box.color = { red: 1, green: 0, blue: 0 };
box.location = { x: 0, y: 173 + 0, z: 0 }; // can be updated later
box.rotation = { x: 0, y: 173 + 45, z: 0 }; // euler angles
box.scale = 1.5;
box.timeLeft = 60; // will disappear after 60 seconds
// box.hasduration (readonly)
// box.totaltimeleft (readonly)

// create a blue circle with all properties
const circle = new DebugCircle({ x: 5, y: 173 + 0, z: 0 });
circle.color = { red: 0, green: 0, blue: 1 };
circle.location = { x: 5, y: 173 + 0, z: 0 };
circle.rotation = { x: 90, y: 173 + 0, z: 0 }; // rotate to xz plane
circle.scale = 1.0;
circle.timeLeft = 60;

// create a green line with all properties
const tline = new DebugLine(
    { x: 0, y: 173 + 3, z: 0 },
    { x: 5, y: 173 + 3, z: 0 }
);
tline.color = { red: 0, green: 1, blue: 0 };
tline.location = { x: 0, y: 173 + 3, z: 0 }; // start point
tline.endLocation = { x: 5, y: 173 + 3, z: 0 }; // end point (debugline specific)
tline.rotation = { x: 0, y: 173 + 0, z: 0 }; // rotation affects the line
// line.scale doesn't apply to debugline
tline.timeLeft = 60;

// create a yellow sphere with all properties
const sphere = new DebugSphere({ x: -5, y: 173 + 0, z: 0 });
sphere.color = { red: 1, green: 1, blue: 0 };
sphere.location = { x: -5, y: 173 + 0, z: 0 };
sphere.rotation = { x: 0, y: 173 + 0, z: 0 };
sphere.scale = 1.0;
sphere.timeLeft = 60;

// create purple arrow with all properties
const arrow = new DebugArrow(
    { x: 0, y: 173 + 0, z: 5 }, // start
    { x: 0, y: 173 + 3, z: 5 }  // end
);
arrow.color = { red: 1, green: 0, blue: 1 };
arrow.location = { x: 0, y: 173 + 0, z: 5 };
arrow.endLocation = { x: 0, y: 173 + 3, z: 5 };
arrow.rotation = { x: 0, y: 173 + 0, z: 0 };
// arrow.scale doesn't apply to debugarrow
arrow.timeLeft = 60;
arrow.headLength = 1.5; // debugarrow specific
arrow.headRadius = 0.7;
arrow.headSegme

nts = 8; // debugarrow specific (default: 4)

// create white text label with all properties
const text = new DebugText(
    { x: 0, y: 173 + 10, z: 0 },
    "debug shapes"
);
text.color = { red: 1, green: 1, blue: 1 };
text.location = { x: 0, y: 173 + 10, z: 0 };
text.rotation = { x: 0, y: 173 + 0, z: 0 }; // doesn't affect text (always faces camera)
text.scale = 0.8;
text.timeLeft = 60;
text.text = "debug shapes"; // can be updated

// add all shapes to the debug drawer
debugDrawer.addShape(box);
debugDrawer.addShape(circle);
debugDrawer.addShape(tline);
debugDrawer.addShape(sphere);
debugDrawer.addShape(arrow);
debugDrawer.addShape(text);

// example of removing shapes
mc.system.runTimeout(()=>{
    // remove individual shape
    box.remove(); // same as debugdrawer.removeshape(box)
    
    // remove all shapes
    debugDrawer.removeAll();
}, 200)

this was the code that i tested

[prisma shard]

import { debugDrawer, DebugBox, DebugCircle, DebugLine, DebugSphere, DebugText, DebugArrow } from '@minecraft/debug-utilities';
import { system } from '@minecraft/server';

// create a red box with all properties
const box = new DebugBox({ x: 0, y: 0, z: 0 });
box.bound = { x: 2, y: 2, z: 2 }; // required for debugbox
box.color = { red: 1, green: 0, blue: 0 };
box.location = { x: 0, y: 0, z: 0 }; // can be updated later
box.rotation = { x: 0, y: 45, z: 0 }; // euler angles
box.scale = 1.5;
box.timeLeft = 60; // will disappear after 60 seconds
debugDrawer.addShape(box);```

try this

i had this

[gilded shadow]

but this doesnt add the shape to the debugDrawer ?

[prisma shard]

debugDrawer.addShape(box);```

ah, forgor this one

[gilded shadow]

did that work for you?

[prisma shard]

as i said, I didnt had a chance to try it since i only use stable minecraft

i am just begging mojang at this point to release it

[gilded shadow]

ive already tried that code

none of the shapes appeared

[prisma shard]

wait

your one is same as mine uhhhhh

i got that from minato

did u get from him aswell

[gilded shadow]

i searched debugDrawer and got that file

[prisma shard]

xd

[proper perch]

I think I did something wrong I’m not sure { "format_version": 2, "header": { "name": "Heart score v1.0.1", "description": "Shows hearts on a scoreboard using Script API", "uuid": "787c31b3-d09b-45fc-8507-6b963b6e793f", "version": [1, 0, 1], "min_engine_version":[1,19,0] }, "modules": [ { "type": "script", "uuid": "899fce17-d325-4d45-a46e-e958ceb72950", "version": [1, 0, 0] }, "entry": "scripts/heartsScore.js" ], "dependencies": [ { "module_name": "@minecraft/server", "version": "1.8.0" } ] }

[gilded shadow]

1.8.0 is real?

are you sure youre not trying to to use 1.18.0?

[proper perch]

This error pops up when trying to load the pack ```Unable to parse pack manifest with stack: * Line 16, Column 12

[leaden glade]

nvm i dont need it anymore

[scarlet sable]

Under what title?

[dusty temple]

How would I get two vectors that are directly perpendicular from the midpoint between two vector3's

[dusty temple]

(Figured it out, I just need to get the cross vector of the midpoint's direction vector)

[dense skiff]

Is there a reason that the sizeWidth & sizeHeight aren't working here? The lifetime var works.
My particle:

{
    "..."
            "minecraft:particle_lifetime_expression": {
                "max_lifetime": "variable.lifetime"
            },
            "minecraft:particle_appearance_billboard": {
                "size": ["variable.sizeWidth", "variable.sizeHeight"],
                "facing_camera_mode": "emitter_transform_xy"
            },
    "..."
}

In script:

molang.setFloat("lifetime", this.lifetimeSeconds);
molang.setFloat("sizeHeight", 0.5);
molang.setFloat("sizeWidth", 0.5);
this.dimension.spawnParticle(particleLocation.particleType, particleLocation.location, molang);

[distant tulip]

That is not how you set variables afaik, check the docs

[wary edge]

Youre missing the v.

[dense skiff]

I think the error mustve been the captials or something, because this works

"minecraft:particle_lifetime_expression": {
    "max_lifetime": "variable.lifetime"
},
"minecraft:particle_appearance_billboard": {
    "size": ["variable.width", "variable.height"],
    "facing_camera_mode": "emitter_transform_xy"
},

color.setFloat("lifetime", this.lifetimeSeconds);
color.setFloat("width", 0.5);
color.setFloat("height", 0.5);

[sterile epoch]

I'm making a ban system, would it be better to store each ban in the same dynamic property object or use a database

[mighty igloo]

how do you get an item icon path from an item type?

[steady canopy]

can't

[mighty igloo]

So i have to setup a file to get the icon for all item types

Do people even do that?

or do they have other methods

[steady canopy]

yeah they do that

[mighty igloo]

Bruh

[mighty igloo]

whats the best way to do that? a bunch of if statements?

[floral vessel]

Is this the correct formula for random ticks?Math.random() < world.gameRules.randomTickSpeed/4096

[wary edge]

Depending on where this is called.

#1380481355330355312 can someone help me pls

[plucky light]

Is it possible to find the nearest village with a script?

[distant tulip]

no

[scarlet sable]

Does the custom command must have two parts with : in the middle?

[scarlet sable]

the name o the custom command

[woven loom]

yes

[scarlet sable]

bruh that sucks

[woven loom]

However, they allowed us to use it directly with the second part in-game.

And if that key is already in use by any means, you must use the full namepace.
