what

amber granite
#

Are u sure u can't overload commands ?

#

Using the new custom command class ?

jolly citrus
#

how would that help

#

/reload isn't a custom command

amber granite
#

No i mean overload it

#

Make a custom command with the same name

jolly citrus
#

override ?

#

you can't override existing commands

amber granite
#

Sure ?

warped blaze
#

you have to use a namespace and it will be mandatory when typing your custom command in case there's already one with that name in vanilla

prisma shard
#

worldLoad event fires each time you do reload. There is no other possible way to detect as I know that you're trying to detect it as a beforeEvent like fire before everything else are reload, but worldLoad is the most possible way.
system.beforeEvents.tartup event actually fires before EVERYTHING and only fires at entering world. But it doesn't run at reload. So your best bet is probably worldLoad.

#

Also uhhhh

#

Apperantly
player.runCommand("/reload") doesn't work ....

#

Wait I'll try without the slash hmm

distant tulip
#

"worldLoad event fires each time you do reload"
are you sure?

prisma shard
#

No?

#

shit I need to test again

distant tulip
#

i highly doubt it tbh, it is worldLoad and /reload doesn't reload the world
only /reload all will trigger that

huh how do i define an entity in script api?

#

nvm im js dumb

#

so do u always have to spawn an entity in before u can use the shoot function?

frozen vine
#

Is it possible to make a notification using server-ui where it will appear and then disappear again?

thorn flicker
#

you can use scripts to trigger titles and then edit these titles in json ui to make them look how you want though.

#

unless you want a notification that stops players, you can use a form I guess, but that would be annoying.

subtle cove
#

form.show and closeAllForms but it'd be buggy

shy leaf
# jade grail so do u always have to spawn an entity in before u can use the shoot function?

lemme explain how it works:

to shoot a projectile with scripting api, first you need to spawn an entity with projectile component
then, get the projectile component and set the owner so that it doesnt hit the owner upon spawning
lastly, you use shoot function to apply velocity of it. the difference between applyImpulse and shoot function is that the latter allows you to give projectiles uncertainty, and its a lot more consistent than the former

shoot function does not spawn entities. it basically launches the entity, so it will never work without an entity to begin with

nvm i think i know what the issue is

nvm i dont

#

nevermind i did but

#

now i get this in console

yes im running it on bds

distant tulip

#

can we check if the entity has died in an entityHurtAfterEvent?

#

without math please

#

actually never mind, i realized i don't need the amount of damage dealt anyway, so i could use entityDieAfterEvent

onyx locust
#

if not, add it

#

also check permissions.json on your bedrock dedicated server files if it includes @minecraft/server-net

#

go to your main server files and navigateconfig > default > permissions.json

jolly citrus
#

thx

jolly citrus
#

but thanks for taking the time anyway

#

how do i apply these options

#

liek where are they used

#

im using PacketSendBeforeEvent

but i only want specific packets to trigger/not triggerf it

#

nvm got it now

I have no idea what happened, i was scripting and when i added a new js file and reloaded the game, i kept getting errors that my custom blocks aren't registered but used in blocks.json, and all of my custom items have disappeared, i thought i missed up something but after thoroughly checking everything i can possibly have done wrong i found nothing, It turns out that all of my addons decided to unequip themselves from my world WHY DID THAT HAPPEN?

openai models are dumb

ok other ai models can't detect this exists. the addon devs keep their job

prisma shard
#

the addon devs keep their job
not for so long

subtle cove
#

its quite too much for the ai to browse all those objects imo
sending the typings would be more accurate for em

midnight ridge
# 
system.runInterval(() => {
  for (const player of world.getAllPlayers()) {
    const inv = player.getComponent("inventory").container;
    const equip = player.getComponent("equippable");

    // --- Get items ---
    const mainHand = inv.getItem(player.selectedSlotIndex);
    const offHand = equip.getEquipment("Offhand");

    // --- Check for magnet ---
    const isMainMagnet = mainHand?.typeId === "minecraft:stick";
    const isOffMagnet = offHand?.typeId === "minecraft:stick";
    const holdingMagnet = isMainMagnet || isOffMagnet;

    // --- Sneak to move magnet to offhand ---
    if (isMainMagnet && player.isSneaking) {
      if (!offHand) {
        equip.setEquipment("Offhand", mainHand);

        // Clear mainhand slot
        inv.setItem(player.selectedSlotIndex, undefined);
      }
      continue;
    }
})```
idk what wrong with this it doesnt set the item to the second hand but it clears the item why does it skip the setEquipment step
subtle cove
#

u can have stick on ur offhand...

#

Did they change how you use typescript for scripting? Keep getting an error saying 'does not contain file [main.js]' (the file is named main.ts)

valid ice
#

You still need to compile the typescript into JavaScript; minecraft doesn’t do it for you

near siren
#

Oh I might have misspelled the file in the manifest. Also, I never realized it doesn't compile it, I've always just used bridge. for convenience and it does this

valid ice

Bridge probably has an auto-compiler in place for typescript

Hey hey, Could someone point me towards how I could make an entity "strafe" or move backwards with scripts? I try with move_around_target and flee but they suck

or knockback

I use apply impulse for knockback stuff and it doesn't seem to work on entities with a knockback of 1

warped kelp
#

Yeee.

warped kelp
# shy leaf bruj

What's a good impulse amount to make an entity "move backwards" from their target without like, overusing it?

I guess I could use my damage detection that activates a "move backwards" function with a remove score and scriptevent to move backwards, and it activates every 5 seconds with interval adding a score of 1

shy leaf
#

honestly

#

entity behavior

#

is probably the best way

warped kelp
#

Wuh

shy leaf
#

if theres even a good way to do it

#

i dunno, making mob behaviors via scripting in general does not sound great

warped kelp
#

My main problem is that move around target gives my entity zoomies, and flee from target makes my entity look like a coward..

#

Though I guess I'll do flee from entity

warped kelp
shy leaf
#

if the uh

#

avoiding entity is higher priority

#

then

#

Is it possible to have an entity that deals damage and has life based on mathematics? Because normally you have to use a group of components with health and attack already defined.

wary edge
#

Just access the health component and set it.

fallen hearth
#

If it is possible to use a value from a scoreboard as the maximum health value, it will help.

# 
      "minecraft:health": {
        "value": "q.scoreboard(`my_score`)",
        "max": "q.scoreboard(`my_score`)"
      }

#

@wary edge ?

somber cedar
warped blaze
#

does the onStepOn custom component triggers if i jump and fall on the block? or i must add the onEntityFallOn component too

wary edge
#

Fall on mostly exists to detect the min fall distance.

warped blaze
#

do you know a better way to get the entities standing on the block? I don't think using getEntities inside the onTick component would be so performant

wary edge
warped blaze
#

yeah but it would trigger once, i want the player to be able to walk against the push (working like a treadmill), and it would stop after the first knockback if the player don't step off the block

wary edge
#

Unfortunately no.

#

Ticking it must.

dynamic property simply stores string into your world storage

register your own and add it to your item's components

wrap the runCommand inside a system.run()

the pain of making a million uuids bruh 😭

someone made a manifest.json generator iirc

idk if it also generates uuids automatically

it says that no items use the custom component, even though i doubled checked the spelling and it set in my json file for the item under components "crystals:heart-crystal": {}

know why this might be @warped blaze ?

But to create a chest the only way is to use an entity inside the block but I have seen that this prevents the block from breaking, there is nothing through scripts that can force the opening of the inventory of an entity?

# wheat condor then what are you trying to achieve?

I want the inventory to open when the player interacts with the block, as this would prevent the block from breaking. I looked at some content on the marketplace and saw that they used a workaround: interact with the block first and then interact again to open the inventory. As soon as you exit the inventory, the block reverts to the closed state and the dummy entity hides.

formValues returns everything header, divider, toggle but it should only return the values from toggle

[Scripting][warning]-{"night":true} [null,null,true,true,null,null,null,true,null]

export function settings(player) {
    let property = new Property(player)
    let quest = property.getProperty("settings", {}, "object")
    let ui = new ModalFormData()
    ui.title("§bSettings menu")
    ui.header("§bBattlePass Settings")
    ui.divider()
    ui.toggle("§7Enable Quest Menu", {defaultValue: quest.battlequest})
    ui.toggle("§7Enable progress", {defaultValue: quest.progress})
    ui.divider()

    ui.header("§bOther Settings")

    ui.toggle("§7Enable Night Vision", {defaultValue: quest.night})
    ui.divider()
    ui.show(player).then((data) => {
        let { formValues, canceled } = data
        if (canceled) return

        quest.battlequest = formValues[0]; 
        quest.progress = formValues[1]; 
        quest.night = formValues[2];

its like that from start

weary umbra
#

when divider and header came out I didnt had this issue

#

thats why I was confused

woven loom
#

hmm

#

values are undefined right?

weary umbra
#

divider and header returns in formValues null but that shouldn't happen. Bc they cant return anything

warped blaze
#

those elements are included in the formValues array

#

as undefined or null

#

I can't remember tho

But some of you have the same problem with the projectile component: it doesn't behave as described in the documentation. Only if you use the runtime_identifier on the arrow does it behave correctly. For example, if I set gravity to 0, it's still applied and the projectile travels further only if I increase the power, but this makes the projectile almost invisible and the collision on the entities is absent in some directions or throws.

hmmm, if i have two or three helmets of the same type, will the helmet.setDynamicProperty give a dynamic property for each one of the helmets? or all of them will share the same dynamic property?

is there a better way to do that? afaik dynamic properties takes storage or something, especially if u have like 999 of the same item

round bone

#

Dynamic Property is the best way to save data without using external DB's (which require additional "bloat" inside the add-on), so I would stick with it.

Sometimes it's better to have a simple class:

class ItemDataResolver {
    static #RARE_ITEMS = new Set(["minecraft:dirt"])

    static isRare(/** @type {string | import("@minecraft/server").ItemStack} */ item) {
        return this.#RARE_ITEMS.has(typeof item === "string" ? item : item.typeId)
    }
}

round bone

yeah

funny enough

i cant find any db that do that

subtle cove
#

just refactor the code into managing the necessary object instead of getting the whole object to stringify/parse

warm drum
#

well, not possible with my use case

dusky flicker
#

it will be pretty slow because of strings and js isnt that fast for byte manipulation(thanks to json)

#

but it will compress bytes and you can cache things

warm drum
#

this sucks

dusky flicker
#

you can store 65kb per dynamjc property

#

just implement paging on these

warm drum

thats nothing tbh

#

paging is the only option then

dusky flicker

normally 4kb

warm drum

btw, has no one made a paging system yet?

i was really wondering in implementing an actual database on minecraft

it would be pretty fun

but sadly slow as hell

who cares lol

dusky flicker
dusky flicker

so http module is not an option

websocket is another nightmare, i would rather stick with a paging system

dusky flicker
#

thanks to http

subtle cove

#

but

#

the user could generate a huge amount of very dynamic data, so thats why i need a limitless key-value db

make a paging system and hash the key

that would be unlimited

#

How can I make a system similar to /clear ${player} ${item} 0 1 using scripting methods?

woven loom
#

whats 0 1 ?

silver agate
#

0 is data
1 is amount

#

Data is like: oak = 0; birch = 1; etc.

#

That 0 is irrelevant

#

Btw

woven loom
#

I guess you have to map each data value to the corresponding state object.s

silver agate
#

That’s not what I meant

woven loom
#

Then you can find that item in your inventory and remove it.t

silver agate
#

What I want to do is: make a system that can remove items from the player’s inventory similar to /clear {player} {item} {data} {amount}

#

Where you only remove one item per time

woven loom
#

Yeah, but you'll need to know what item ur interested in

silver agate
#

Yes, i know

woven loom
#

Apart from that, the script is simple.e

silver agate
#

Let’s use ‘minecraft:apple’ and amount = 1. For example

I can show you how to completely remove an item.y

U can improve on that

Already got some functions made by chatGPT:

    const item = container.getItem(i);
    if (item && item.typeId === itemId) {
      if (item.amount > amount) {
        item.amount -= amount;
        container.setItem(i, item);
      } else {
        container.setItem(i, undefined);
      }
      return true;
    }
  }
  return false;
}

function addItem(player, container, itemId, amount = 1) {
  const newItem = new ItemStack(itemId, amount);
  const leftover = container.addItem(newItem);
  if (leftover) player.dimension.spawnItem(leftover, player.location);
}```

They work alright

Is there a way to clear dynamic properties from a player which is offline?

i might be wrong but so far we don't have such a api

but if thats related to number you can use scoreboards

yeah i need to clear all the dynamic properties when the uninstall command is run but cant do from a player which is offline

honest spear

Yea use scoreboard marker basicly create scoreboard and set it to 1 of you want to clear them on next join

that might work pretty well actually

the problem is that when the uninstall command is run then it basically means the player wants to remove the behavior pack from the world

using minecraft bedrock latest script api version make a script that listen for player selected slot changing, and get the item in that slot, then get the food component, if it is defined set the action bar of the player to display saturation and nutrition

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

// Listen for when a player changes the selected hotbar slot
world.afterEvents.playerHotbarSelectedSlotChange.subscribe((ev) => {
  const player = ev.player;
  const stack = ev.itemStack; // May be undefined if the slot is empty

  // Clear action bar if nothing is in the slot
  if (!stack) {
    player.onScreenDisplay.setActionBar("");
    return;
  }

  // Get the food component from the item (minecraft:food)
  const food = stack.getComponent(ItemComponentTypes.Food);
  if (!food) {
    // Not a food item — clear the action bar (or skip)
    player.onScreenDisplay.setActionBar("");
    return;
  }

  // Read nutrition and saturation modifier
  const nutrition = food.nutrition;
  const satMod = food.saturationModifier;

  // Optional: the applied saturation buff on eat is nutrition * satMod * 2
  // const satBuff = Math.round(nutrition * satMod * 2 * 10) / 10;

  // Show values on the player's action bar
  player.onScreenDisplay.setActionBar(`🍗 Nutrition: ${nutrition} | Saturation: ${satMod}`);
});

search and reasoning are both on
this is also really simple, i have a lot of cases where it will failed when things get complicated or it is trained on old stuff and it get conflicted

HCF Removal and Custom Components

The Holiday Creator Features experimental toggle has been removed. Along with it includes JSON block and item events. This functionality has been replaced with custom components.

Please take a look at the following links to learn more about custom components:

Use optionalParameters

registerEnum questions...

A name is defined, but never referenced. What if I register 2 or more, how does it know which to use.

the CustomCommandRegistry object is the same js system.beforeEvents.startup.subscribe((event) => { const ccr = event.customCommandRegistry; registerCustomCommands(ccr); });All my commands are registered in the function.

or... am I supposed to have a separate system.beforeEvents.startup.subscribe((event) for each command that has a different enum?

Does anyone have sample code with more than one command and they have different Enums and it works?

C.A.F.

#

Also... can I register anytime? I want to have some unlocking of commands to be able to even showup for the owner... so I do not want to register them until pwd entered... feasible?

round bone

# round bone Could you show me `registerCustomCommands`? 
/**

export function registerCustomCommands (registry) {

    register_cls(registry);
    register_about(registry);

    if (pack.allowDebugOverride || debug.dev.debug) {   
        register_scoreboardsAllow(registry);
        register_debugEntity(registry);

        register_debugLoadAndSpawn(registry);
    }
}```

I don't want to be mean, but putting it all inside a single function (or even a class with private methods) would make the code so much cleaner.

#

the enum that is used is based on the command parameter's name

round bone
#

Back in the topic - for safety, I'd recommend to make sure to register enums before any commands.

#

Also, can you show me, how do you declare enum parameters inside a command registry?

neat hound
# open urchin the enum that is used is based on the command parameter's `name`

This is the sample in Jayly's website.... the name is not the same ```ts
// Register an enum for command parameters
registry.registerEnum( "teleportTargets", [ "spawn", "home", "end", "nether" ] );

// Define a simple teleport command
const teleportCommand: CustomCommand = {
    name: "custom:teleport",
    description: "Teleport to predefined locations",
    permissionLevel: CommandPermissionLevel.Admin,
    cheatsRequired: true,
    mandatoryParameters: [
        {
            name: "destination",
            type: CustomCommandParamType.Enum,            
        },
    ],
    optionalParameters: [
        {
            name: "player",
            type: CustomCommandParamType.PlayerSelector,
        },
    ],
};```
open urchin
#

that example is wrong

round bone
open urchin
#

I think the enum also needs a namespace

round bone
# 
registry.registerEnum( "custom:teleportTargets", [ "spawn", "home", "end", "nether" ] );

// Define a simple teleport command
const teleportCommand: CustomCommand = {
    name: "custom:teleport",
    description: "Teleport to predefined locations",
    permissionLevel: CommandPermissionLevel.Admin,
    cheatsRequired: true,
    mandatoryParameters: [
        {
            name: "custom:teleportTargets",
            type: CustomCommandParamType.Enum,            
        },
    ],
    optionalParameters: [
        {
            name: "player",
            type: CustomCommandParamType.PlayerSelector,
        },

did we get entityHitEntity before event?

and entityHurt beforeEvent would be better imo

#

uhhhhhh lemme recollect..., since the vv update

#

like a month after that?

#

yeah

thorn flicker
#

i dont remember if this came after or before but we got events for relating to the player's inventory and hotbar.

#

the newest scripting thing I can think of is, getLightLevel method, getSkyLightLevel method

#

getBiome,

#

and in preview, there's a custom component event that allows us to detect when a block is destroyed (sources other than player), and a method to get an entity's bounding box.

#

what else...

#

loot table manager,

#

methods for getting block(s) that an entity is standing on.

so i just figured out how to import multiple scripts in the main.js but there's one issue.

these two scripts aren't working.

the first js is supposed to

make my mob jump backwards or forwards

meanwhile the 2nd js focuses on making it jump left or right.
