cant believe my school is that far behind compared to the average knowledge school gives people in uk

💔💔💔

[tidal turret]

doing this now sorry i had some things pop up

[grim ocean]

depres

OH WAIITT WE GOT SIDE TRACKED 💔💔💔

lmaoaooa

[knotty oriole]

My teacher taught me to remember it w a story:
“The Negative Boy Couldn’t Decide whether to go to the Radical party. He decided to Be Square and Missed Out on Four Awesome Chicks. The party was Over at Two AM.”

Thank u mr morrin

[grim ocean]

huhhh

[tidal turret]

yeah no chat gpt is cooked

[grim ocean]

no idea which part is meant to represent which part of the formula

[grim ocean]

💔

[tidal turret]

is it my fault my cat peed on my arms

[grim ocean]

💔💔💔 so sad

[grim ocean]

oh i kinda get part of it now

lmaoaoaoa

funei ahh

[tidal turret]

u guys still yapping

lmaoaooa

[grim ocean]

damn 😭 mr morrin smart

[knotty oriole]

He was a v wise man

[grim ocean]

real

[knotty oriole]

Used to tell us bout how he got his tubes tied in his cock

Cool guy

[grim ocean]

wat-

🫥

okay

[knotty oriole]

Used to ask some of the girls to join him in his van for netflix

But cool guy

[grim ocean]

🫥

huhhhhhh

okayyy

we got side tracked 💔

[knotty oriole]

Cool guy tho

Anyways

Thats the quadratic formula

😁

Im entitled to a reader

[grim ocean]

( i didn understand wat its used for )

💔

[knotty oriole]

Me neither if im gonna be honest

[grim ocean]

huhhh

[grim ocean]

lmao?

[tidal turret]

you are 1 in a million
(you are deff special)

[grim ocean]

😭😭 if u didn understand it with such a cool teacher, am cooked

[grim ocean]

huhhh

dat didnt help

[knotty oriole]

I didnt pay attention much to quadratic formula, it was too daunting 😔

[grim ocean]

😭😭😭💔

[knotty oriole]

It had a lot of expanding and simplifying i remember

Like a LOT

[grim ocean]

real-

[grim ocean]

💔

am cooked

[knotty oriole]

Yeah i dont rly remember that all too well

Was quite frightening

[grim ocean]

that actually looks simple enough, feels like i could actually understand it if i focused enough ( and stared at it for the next 3 hours )

[knotty oriole]

I was ac just thinking the same thing lowk, it looks wayy more manageable than i remember

[grim ocean]

lmaoaoa

[knotty oriole]

Think i was always commands hp tho on my phone when he was explaining it so

Would explain my problem

[grim ocean]

💔

when we work on skygen 💔

[tidal turret]

@knotty oriole Would you say your pretty good at commands

[knotty oriole]

Id say so, yeah

[grim ocean]

💔 ( wat about me )

[tidal turret]

um can u help me with something

[knotty oriole]

Lets all make one and compare them 🥶🥶

[grim ocean]

i is pretty good at cmd 💔

[knotty oriole]

Lets find out, what is it

[grim ocean]

🗣️📢🔥 ( am cooked )

despite me not knowing trigonometry stuffyyf, i bet i can make watever u tell me to 🗣️📢🔥

[knotty oriole]

I dont think ull need trig for the skygen so i think ull be fine 😮‍💨

[grim ocean]

lmaoaoa

[tidal turret]

can u make me a plot system'

[knotty oriole]

Telling u tho, if any trig come up its over

[grim ocean]

as innn

explain better-

( more detail pleag )

[knotty oriole]

Yeah i can show u one i made a while ago, theyre not v hard just super repetitive

[grim ocean]

💔

i so depres

[knotty oriole]

Someone in command help asked for it too so idm

[tidal turret]

ye i saw u earlier

[grim ocean]

💔💔💔

[tidal turret]

u legit kinda gay
(jokes)

[grim ocean]

whu

😡

🫵😡 grrrr

[tidal turret]

IM SORRY

[knotty oriole]

The plot system itself just comes down to binary TP which allows u to tp a distance dynamically based off of a score

[grim ocean]

real

[tidal turret]

i really need this

[grim ocean]

i got smth like that ( feels like u either overcomplicated it or am talking about a different thing )

[knotty oriole]

Dif thing i think, assuming u were the one who helped the other guy in command help

[tidal turret]

actually ive made over 300$ making mc maps butt i dont know scoreboard operations if im completely honest

[knotty oriole]

Was urs the one that ticked down to tp to plots?

[grim ocean]

whu

[grim ocean]

yea- 💔

wait then how did ur work 🤯

[knotty oriole]

Scoreboard operations are key asf lowk

Im more wondering where tf u found people willing to pay $300

Lmao

[tidal turret]

yes ik but idk where to start

[knotty oriole]

Put me on

[tidal turret]

made over 100 maps in the past 2 years and ppl pay around 10-20$

for a 14 yr old that's pretty massive

[knotty oriole]

Its not massively dissimilar, but mine uses binary to TP in increments of base 2 until a score reaches 0, meaning it can be accomplished in one tick, aka one command cycle as apposed to having to run over many ticks

[grim ocean]

huhh

i kinda don get it

[knotty oriole]

Ohh right i thought u meant on one map, i was gonna say

[tidal turret]

most i got was 40$ at one time

[grim ocean]

wouldnt that mean u need to like put up insanely long towers of cmd block for each possible number ( thats just doing it the manual way 😭 not much dynamic about that )

[knotty oriole]

Some american kid w wayy too much money used to commission me and my brother to work on maps for his realm and my bro was earning ab $50-100 while i was earning around $50-400 per job

[grim ocean]

wththt

bro actually made money from this? 💔

[knotty oriole]

Not quite each possible number, but ur right ab the long tower
U start from ur largest multiple of two and then continue to half it down until u reach 1 essentially; its long and tedious, but not 1:1 tedious lmao

[grim ocean]

wheres dat kid rn lmaoao

[tidal turret]

If im being honest the only reason why i play bedrock is bc its a simple game

[grim ocean]

so its not true that it completes the tp within a tick 💔

[knotty oriole]

Mooching off his parents no doubt lmao
He never made a return on them cus he was constantly starting new projects wo publishing the old

[knotty oriole]

Yeah it does

[grim ocean]

💔

[grim ocean]

whu

but

huhhh?

[knotty oriole]

Essentially the way it works is using a sum of binary numbers, u can make any number between it

We’ll do an exercise to demonstrate

Gimme a 2 digit number

[grim ocean]

huhh

uh

69

[knotty oriole]

64+4+1

Next

[grim ocean]

whu-

i is very confus

[tidal turret]

sooo can u help me jonathan also both of u add me rq

[grim ocean]

OH

OHHHH

[knotty oriole]

Yeah i got u, ill get on in a few mins

[grim ocean]

OHHHHHHHH

THE

[tidal turret]

add me on discord rq

[grim ocean]

lmaoaoao

dat makes sense

[knotty oriole]

Yeah, binary is super smart and ur able to make any number between using a sum of base 2 values; its how a computer does it pretty much

Super smart system

[grim ocean]

real

damn 😭

[knotty oriole]

Gimme another 2-3 digit for example

[grim ocean]

372

😈

[grim ocean]

does bro just have a insanely long list of base 2 numbers to compare it to 💔

[knotty oriole]

256+64+32+16+4

[grim ocean]

💔💔💔

[knotty oriole]

Sorry had to go break that one down in the calc 😭

[grim ocean]

and thats only 5 cmd blocks 💔💔💔

[grim ocean]

lmaoaooa

[knotty oriole]

Well sorta

[grim ocean]

gah dayum 💔

i feel dumb now 💔

[knotty oriole]

Its 2 per one: one to tp by the value, one to remove the value from the score, and u need all values of base 2 up to ur max number

[tidal turret]

guys look inside the gc

[grim ocean]

oh rightht

lmaoao

so like 11 or smth

funei

[knotty oriole]

Dwbi lmao, if ur not super involved in the community u may not know

[grim ocean]

💔💔💔

[grim ocean]

wat gc

[uncut notch]

Who god damn tagged me.

[grim ocean]

uh

[grim ocean]

its him sir

[topaz wren]

Hey can anyone help with making a PvP area for me on my Auto Sky Gen soon to be realm, done everything else but can not seem to get a pvp command working.

Will be highly appreciated!

[knotty oriole]

Is it ac full auto tho?

Thats a brave statement in a commands and add ons server

[manic mantle]

Very brave

[restive portal]

How to use damage command so that it only damages entities at where I am looking?

I usually just use r/radius

[knotty oriole]

Can use a raycast or look detection

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/commands/look-detection

for look detection its smt like:

Yeah its the one thats like:
/execute as @e[c=2] as @e[c=2] as @e[c=2] as @e[c=2] as @e[c=2] as @e[c=2] as @e[c=2] as @e[c=2] as @e[tag=cast.ray] at @s if block ^ ^ ^0.2 air run /tp ^ ^ ^0.2 facing ^ ^ ^1
Where @e[tag=cast.ray] is an xp orb or armour stand with the tag

[restive portal]

What execute command only works if a certain entity is near the player?

/execute if entity @e[type=zoglin] positioned as @e[r=5] run effect @s regeneration 10 1 true

Tried this but it kept giving the effect anyway, so I dunno what I'm doing wrong

[knotty oriole]

/execute as @e[type=zoglin] at @s run /effect @a[r=5] regeneration 10 1 true
OR
/execute as @a at @s if entity @e[type=zoglin,r=5] run /effect @s resistance 10 1 true

First executes from the zoglin (more optimised), second executes from the player; both commands are effectively identical

[true laurel]

/execute at @e[type=zoglin] run effect @a[r=5] regeneration 10 1 true

[restive portal]

Thanks ya'll

[scenic bronze]

Where can I find documentation on the dialogue json?

[jade dirge]

you might something useful here

[restive portal]

Chat why is absorption not working??

[rose tusk]

Describe what you are seeing? @restive portal

[restive portal]

I gotchu

Low level works fine. Any higher than that gives only 8 hearts (despite using 255 amplifier)

[rose tusk]

Yep, it's a bug https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE/issues/MCPE-33940

[graceful canopy]

(MCPE-33940) Absorption effect above level 4 is always the same as level 4

Status

To Do (Open)

Resolution

Unresolved

[restive portal]

Man

Any idea when they'll fix it?

[rose tusk]

Considering it was created 7 years ago, I would not hold my breath on a fix anytime soon

[restive portal]

😭

Well that was painful.

[knotty oriole]

Why not just use health boost for the mean time

[restive portal]

I'd need to heal all that health, though I guess it's a decent enough conpromise, seeing as I do use phases for my entity..

[knotty oriole]

Then just use instant health to heal it, no?

[restive portal]

Yaa. You're right, I'll do that.

Though I gotta say, absorption would've been so much nicer since it won't be affected by regeneration

[knotty oriole]

Is what it is unfortunately

[restive portal]

I'm just surprised and disappointed that they haven't fixed it yet, for 7 whole years 😭

[rose tusk]

Some bugs are like that 🙁

[restive portal]

Now I'll resort to using an entity riding the main entity (boss) to act as their absorption...

Anywho, thanks for the help :D

[gray sage]

What target selector can I use in a .mcfunction that lets me add a score to a player ONLY if they DON'T ALREADY HAVE ONE (to reduce lag) instead of just giving them 0 every tick?

My current line is scoreboard players add @a score 0

I would like to limit this function to only work on players without any sort of score on it whatsoever

I've been using [scores={score=-2147483647..}] for a while now but I so extremely doubt it changes anything because when I run it in-game it just runs it on anything no matter if the have a score or not

[knotty oriole]

Just do an on join system

[gray sage]

I want it to be guaranteed so even if the script shuts down and someone joins it'll do its thing

[knotty oriole]

Yeah itll be guaranteed

[gray sage]

Really? I thought world.afterEvents.playerJoin ONLY fires if the script is currently active at the time of the player joining

[knotty oriole]

Thats why u just do one w commands instead

[gray sage]

Oh dear god

No

[knotty oriole]

Why?

[gray sage]

I can't do that with mcfunctions

[knotty oriole]

Why not

[gray sage]

Because mcfunctions can't do conditionals

[knotty oriole]

U dont need conditionals, what?

Heres ur on join system:

tag @a[tag=!game.joined] add game.joined```

Already formatted for ur .mcfunction

[gray sage]

Oh yeah- i forgot about tags

Okay thank you then

Hold on

Isn't it not guaranteed though because the command that adds the tag could run before the scoreboard

Man I hate these systems

I just want a target selector man

Is there seriously NO WAY to check for no score at all?

[knotty oriole]

Not possible at all

Regardless of whether its commands, or .mcfunctions, they will always run consistently in an order and will never defer from it

[gray sage]

What if it's in the middle of running the function when a player joins though ._.

With the size of the function it's a 1/2 chance

[knotty oriole]

Its not exactly how that works

[gray sage]

Couldn't [scores={score=!-2147483647..}] work?

[knotty oriole]

Itll only run from the start on new entities, itll never start from the middle

[knotty oriole]

This will only apply if u have a value on the scoreboard (albeit its a value u cant achieve), however when ur not added to a scoreboard u just literally dont have a value

[gray sage]

No wonder it doesn't work in game >:l

[knotty oriole]

Yeah unfortunately

Theres no way to test for a player not added to a scoreboard (not without first adding them to it, at least)

Ur two best bets are the on first join, or repeat add 0

[gray sage]

I would try to use a script to check, like, !world.scoreboard.getObjective("score").getScore(player.scoreBoardIdentity) and just add it if the predicate was true but scripting forces players to have a score to know what it is 😔

Fine

I'll try the tag version

[uncut notch]

use playerSpawn

You're just not creative to do it.

[gray sage]

Oh uh

Yeah

I realized that

Scripts don't allow that

Because they NEED an existing score for the script to read it

[uncut notch]

wdym existing score?

that's why scoreboardIdentity exists, so if a player doesn't have it yet then we add one using addScore(player, 0)

[gray sage]

If I try to read an objective's score for a player that doesn't have a score for that objective the console goes haywire and the script stops running

[uncut notch]

^

or just do addScore(player, 0)

[gray sage]

I literally can't read scores without scoreboard identity, it's the only option, I know that already

[uncut notch]

sigh

If you say so...

[gray sage]

Unless 2.0.0 changed scoreboard reading in scripts

[uncut notch]

Believe what you gotta believe

[gray sage]

Because it certainly didn't work the first time I tried

[uncut notch]

Also what are you trying to do?

[gray sage]

ADD A SCORE TO PLAYERS THAT DONT HAVE THAT SCORE SO THAT MY SCRIPTS WORK OF COURSE

[uncut notch]

Nah you just don't know how to it.

[uncut notch]

SOORRRY YOU DON'T NEED TO YELL

[uncut notch]

scoreboardIdentity returns undefined if they don't have a score in the scoreboards... Wdym it's not possible...

[gray sage]

Well then 2.0.0 changed something. When I tried reading a player's score without .scoreboardIdentity, it errored me. When I tried reading a score that a player didn't have (and even making a failsafe) both options errored me.

This was on 1.18.0-beta

[uncut notch]

as I said it won't work obviously. Since they don't have scores, that's why I said use scoreboardIdentity

[gray sage]

I literally can't read anyone's scores without scoreboard identity, what are you talking about

[uncut notch]

tf you mean you can't?

[gray sage]

And when I use scoreboard identity to read a score that doesn't exist the script immediately stops running and console error

[uncut notch]

lmao, you're the confusing one here.

[gray sage]

Okay.

Back when I was learning to make scripts (which was the beta @minecraft/server module just before 1.18.0-beta) I tried reading a player's score without scoreboardIdentity attached because I didn't know any better, and then it promptly ended main.js and my entire script system stopped working. Then way back I asked how to fix this, someone said add scoreboardIdentity, it worked. Then later on I tried reading a score out of a player that literally did not have that score on their identity, which didn't end main.js but spammed console errors. So of course I now have to add the score to everyone no matter what (and immediately) because I can't read scores that don't exist.

So now I'm here.

I tried adding a failsafe at some point that wouldn't write anything to the variable holding the score if the score was undefined, but it had the exact same effect as reading a nonexistent score.

Way back here actually #1317711120965832714 message

Was the second incident

[uncut notch]

world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe(({ player, initialSpawn }) => {
  if (!initialSpawn) return;
  const obj = world.scoreboard.getObjective('join') ?? world.scoreboard.addObjective('join');

  obj.addScore(player, 0);
});```

You didn't do this don't you.

[gray sage]

^

Back then it literally didn't let me write to a nonexistent score

Maybe it works now but you could've said that when I asked if it was new

[uncut notch]

lmao no.

You can do it in 1.21.60 and below

[gray sage]

We're on 1.21.70 now

:P

[uncut notch]

Ohh really? I didn't even fuckin notice!

[gray sage]

Yeap

Better update all ur packs

[uncut notch]

I'm sarcastic.

[gray sage]

Nice

That's why you use /sc

[uncut notch]

I'm in 1.21.80 Soo no.

[uncut notch]

sc? Huh?

[gray sage]

Tone modifier-

This feels awfully familiar.

[uncut notch]

You're weird.

[gray sage]

I explained this to you several months ago and my memory shouldn't really be that good

[gray sage]

Okay

[uncut notch]

As I said you can always add 0 in players if they don't have score for initialization it's been there since API for scoreboard exists you just didn't experiment it fully.

[gray sage]

/sc is sarcastic /srs is serious

[gray sage]

Fine I will try this but I'm blaming it on you if it doesn't work :3

[uncut notch]

Uhh? Blame yourself

Not me, you just don't know any solutions

[gray sage]

I still don't understand why you separate the data in .subscribe()

It DOESNT WORK

[uncut notch]

Skill issue 😆

and what data?

[gray sage]

Oh I swear to god

[uncut notch]

Nah I'm just kidding

[gray sage]

You're using brackets in the data parameter

I never noticed

[uncut notch]

you don't know destructing don't you??

[gray sage]

I've always been using .subscribe((data)=>{})

[mighty kindle]

making .runCommand() not be able to run in read-only mode was so unnecessary

[gray sage]

You're using .subscribe(({data, data2})=>{})

[uncut notch]

Obviously you don't why would you ask

[uncut notch]

Because it's faster and cleaner

and also it doesn't matter

It would work the same, if it doesn't then skill issue

[gray sage]

It certainly is!! That would have been helpful for me to actually know how to do before!

Instead my stupid ADHD brain dismissed the brackets

[uncut notch]

world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe(({ player, initialSpawn }) => {
  // ...
});``````js
world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe(ev) => {
  const player = ev.player;
  const initialSpawn = ev.intialSpawn;
  // ...
});``````js
world.afterEvents.playerSpawn.subscribe(ev => {
  const { player, initialSpawn } = ev;
  // ...
});```

They work exactly the same.

[gray sage]

Now I know.

[uncut notch]

uhh no? runCommand modifies the world.

wdym?

[mighty kindle]

I guess, but if I want to run some command that doesn't modify it like kicking a player

[gray sage]

Kick doesn't work

Needs a higher permission level

Only achievable from dedicated servers

[mighty kindle]

kick @s don't work?

[gray sage]

Not in scripts, no

[mighty kindle]

it worked last version

omg

[uncut notch]

Never, it never worked.

You can't kick yourself at ALL

[gray sage]

Kick, op, setMaxPlayers all don't work in scripts

[uncut notch]

Mandela effect, you're confused

[mighty kindle]

kick worked with player names...

[gray sage]

Like I said, you need a dedicated server to elevate the permission level of scripts

[uncut notch]

it still modifies world, wdym?

[mighty kindle]

🤷‍♂️

[uncut notch]

runCommand() doesn't have enough permission

Mandela effect dude, it never worked.

[gray sage]

Anyway we should probably in https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1067535608660107284

[mighty kindle]

oop confused the chats

[uncut notch]

And btw, if you want to kick (almost) in single players, use transferPlayer and yes it works in single players and Multiplayer

[restive bone]

does the error " [commands] [warning] couldnt load file ... in functions directory " means that there error in command in the file?

[grim ocean]

usually, or the file doesnt exist

[restive portal]

Is this not how it works??

execute at @e[type=og:angelica_black_silence] if entity @e[type=og:roland_black_silence] in overworld run function soul_lsoul_effect

Custom entities, though for some reason it throws an error at this execute command

[rose tusk]

What should this be doing? @restive portal What it looks like is "For all Angelica entities: At their position; if a Roland entity exists, then in the Overworld run function soul_lsoul_effect"

if entity and in overworld are two separate arguments

[restive portal]

Supposed to be that mob a (angelica) and mob b (roland) depend on each other. If mob b doesn't exist (killed) then the function wouldn't run (mob a runs the execute command which is why it checks if (roland) is in overworld)

Though I think I mixed up the execute command

[jade dirge]

You could try this:

execute in overworld positioned 0 0 0 as @e[type=og:roland_black_silence, rm=0.01] at @e[type=og:angelica_black_silence] run function soul_lsoul_effect

You may need to change the at to as depending on if you want the function to be executed on the behalf of angelica or at the location of angelica.

[restive portal]

Thanks

[south glen]

Uh

what wrong channel

[restive portal]

What command chain summons things in a circular pattern?

[tulip quarry]

Hi, how can I make a mob activate a command when it approaches the player automatically?

[south glen]

testfor the enity in a radious of the player

make the radious a certian amount like 3 blocks if you want it in a radious of 3

[restive portal]

Would this work?

effect @e[type=!player,r=3] poison 4 2 true

Or should I use both type and family player?

[grim ocean]

yea, it would give every entity except players thats within a 3 block radius poison

[tulip quarry]

and if I want you to activate an event when approaching the player for example start_riding

for example, when an entity that can be mounted by the player approaches the player, have the player automatically upload to it within a radius, say 1 to 2 blocks away and that in turn cannot be removed from said entity.

[south glen]

so your using a !

that means anything thats not the one there

so use player only

so @e[type=player,r=3] instead

[restive portal]

Ah, it's specifically for the player to use

So I assume it works

[south glen]

Imma expand on what I wrote for you to better understanf the type part just incase

if using ! it would mean that it checks for entitys that arent that and if used with tags dont have that tag

but if you dont use ! in the command it finds the enity or tag that matches with what is writen

[knotty oriole]

Never use /testfor

[south glen]

then use the next best fortest

you see instead it for tests it

[knotty oriole]

😭😭

[tidal turret]

@knotty oriole

/execute at @a[r=6,scores={plot=!1..}] run /setblock ~~-3~ redstone_block

what did i do wrong 😭

wait

i dont have a score for plots at all

[knotty oriole]

Run at everyone in a radius of 6 of the command block who has a score of 0 or less, set a redstone block 3 blocks below them

[knotty oriole]

Yeah thatll probably do it

[tidal turret]

and yeah

its as

yay

my plot system is finsihed

finished

and it only use 8 command blocks

[knotty oriole]

Boooo not fully auto 👎

[tidal turret]

@knotty oriole Actually it is fully auto

[knotty oriole]

Infinite generation?

[tidal turret]

yes

everytime someone claims a plot a new one is loaded

loser

[knotty oriole]

Alr fair enough, no complaints here 🤝

But i bet u use one whole entity, pee-yew 🤢🤮🤮

[tidal turret]

uh no

it's pretty much your system but people have to click a button

stupid

[knotty oriole]

Oh then whatd u use for the tp since my system is dependant on binary tp

Unless urs is the slow one which ticks down

[tidal turret]

no

i used an addon i made

advanced commands

(i used chatgpt)

[knotty oriole]

Heyy thats cheating

[uncut notch]

booo 👎🏽👎🏽

[knotty oriole]

Tell em, tell em

[uncut notch]

If you use ai for commands, I will expect you use for scripts tooo

[tidal turret]

@uncut notch Wasnt for commands

im actually good with commands

i used chat gpt to give me ideas

so maybe its not actually doing the work for me

[pulsar marsh]

Is there a way to make it so a diffrent tp command will execute based on a scoreboard value?

Why was one of my friend babbling about a /ability command yesterday? They said they could just disable chatting and killing players with it, and that they heard of a Mayfly ability too. The world didn't have education edition turned on so I was wondering what they were talking about? I can't just use /ability in any world.

When I was confused about it to them yesterday they said it was announced sometime in 2020. Again, I'm pretty sure that's an education edition command. But there wasn't education edition enabled.

[hybrid musk]

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

[grim ocean]

he prob thought the cmd being able to disable chat meant it disabled you running commands in chat too, which isnt true lmao

and it was some crazy new trick, which it isnt 💔

[gray sage]

I had another extensive conversation with them. They DID use the command and I got creative flight in survival, and they said many times that it wasn't a script or a texture pack.

[knotty oriole]

R u certain the world isnt in edu?

It is true that the command is real, but its only available in education edition to my knowledge (at the very least, it used to be), and its a super useful command, especially if ur running a realm or hosting a public world

[gray sage]

Very certain, I'm not the host but way down in the world settings it says edu is OFF

[uncut notch]

Is it a custom server or just a multiplayer or realm?

[grim ocean]

ohh thats a bug lmao, viewing it by pausing the game and pressing the settings button doesnt really show the actual edu state lmao

[knotty oriole]

This ^
/ability is not accessible wo using edu, so u basically got pranked, lmao

[gray sage]

Oh.

Well then

Huh

[pseudo marlin]

If I ran this command every tick, would it cause a noticeable amount of lag?
execute as @a at @a run fill ~-10 ~-10 ~-10 ~10 ~10 ~10 air replace end_portal

[knotty oriole]

Not rly no

[grim ocean]

but might make it slightly better if it was

execute at @a run fill ~-10 ~-10 ~-10 ~10 ~10 ~10 air replace end_portal

[restive portal]

Does anyone have the calculations for getting specific amount or at least close to the amount in using health_boost amplifier?

Nvm got it

[pseudo marlin]

thanks!

[severe hatch]

hello! there is a way to increase the range of commandblock can be activeted?

I have a commandblock that generates a structure, the problem is that the commandblock is activated too late

It activates even when the player is far enough

[grim ocean]

tickingarea add circle ~~~ 4 cmdarea

[grim ocean]

do that cmd near ur cmd blocks

[severe hatch]

if I understood correctly, i need to place a commandblock with this command near the other commandblock that places the structure?

[grim ocean]

nah, u can run that command in chat

it just has to be near the command block that you want to be activated no matter where you are

[severe hatch]

mmmmm but the commandblock are spawned randomly in the world

for this i need to increase the range of the commandblock must be actived when the player is away

[grim ocean]

whut

wym by command blocks being randomly spawned-

[knotty oriole]

My question is why exactly theyre spawned randomly in the world

[scenic bronze]

What happen with the reload command?

[tight belfry]

depneding what version of the game the world was created on some worlds do not have access to the command you have to leave and rjoin every time

[pastel sequoia]

How do I focus my camera on a block so I would look straightly and couldn't rotate my camera?

[scenic bronze]

Okk, but the world was created in 1.21.50 and is now in 1.21.70...

[tight belfry]

is betaapis turned on?

[tight belfry]

inputpermission set <playername> camera disabled
tp @s ~~~ facing <x> <y> <z>

[pastel sequoia]

thank you

[tight belfry]

Your welcome

[scenic bronze]

Yes

[tight belfry]

then im unsure

[restive portal]

If a function is used with commands that require an entity to exist, for example, mob a and mob b is teleported to each other every second, and there is also mob c and mob d doing the same command in a single mcfunction,

A <-> B
Tp @s @e[type=mob_b]
Tp @s @e[type=mob_a]
C <-> D
Tp @s @e[type=mob_d]
Tp @s @e[type=mob_c]

Let's say I run the function, but mob b is not spawned in, would the tp command for C and D still work without the tp command for a and b not activating?

[knotty oriole]

Yes, tho im more concerned that ur TPing mob a to mob b, and mob b to mob a

This would surely mean that mob b would get TPd to mob a who is now at the position of mob b, and thus mob b wouldnt move anywhere

[restive portal]

Yep, it's just a Hypothetical

[knotty oriole]

Then aside from that; yeah

[restive portal]

I figured, it runs independently and fails silently

Thanks for the clarification:3

[knotty oriole]

Commands in functions are basically just unconditional chain command blocks, so theyll still proceed fine regardless of the previous command outputs

[restive portal]

Commands can be used to call upon events right? And if the component has its own timer, when it runs out, it could just self implode and return to waiting to be activated?

Though I guess sensors, scripts may be more efficient

[gray sage]

I am also now remembering a question I've had for a while but never bothered to ask. You say functions run like chain command blocks, right?
Is there any way to make some lines of a function conditional then?

As in, run a line if the previous line output true

[knotty oriole]

Yeah: use /execute ; the whole point of this was pretty much u should never ever use conditional — but to answer ur question there is no way to make a function conditional in the same sense as command blocks

[gray sage]

Good to know.
And I'm VERY familiar with /execute, thanks.

[stoic oxide]

Did they change something about logs ? I was using this usefull command to do deforestation:
/execute as "PxP Aquila" positioned ~~~ run fill ~4 ~-4 ~4 ~-4 ~4 ~-4 air replace log
It was replacing all logs(oak, dark oak etc) But even using proper name like oak_log it does nothing

this commands works for other blocks, but not the logs

[timber sedge]

Are you sure you typed it correctly?

I just tried air replace oak_log and it works

So it’s not glitched (for me)

[hollow linden]

technically asking, how to summon chicken jockey?

[true laurel]

Use ride

[hollow linden]

idk how to use that correctly lol

and i also dont know how to summon baby zombie

Ok then let me give you a simple one

/summon chicken ~~~ ~~

/summon zombie ~~~ ~~ minecraft:as_baby

/ride @e[type=zombie,c=1] start_riding @e[type=chicken,c=1] teleport_ride

[finite nymph]

is there a command I can use to detect coins (iron nuggets) in my inventory and when there are at least 16 it changes them to iron bars?

[true laurel]

/give @a[hasitem={item=iron_nuggets, quantity=16..}] iron_bar 1

/clear @a[hasitem={item=iron_nuggets, quantity=16..}] iron_nuggets 0 16
It's a simple cmd setup 😁
If you want an perfect I can make it complex for you [with tag add stuff]

[finite nymph]

ty! what would the dif between simple and perfect? would it affect gameplay differently or someting?

@true laurel

[true laurel]

Hmm first is in inventory management
If your inventory is full and you have sufficient nuggets the bar will given to you but it will drop as an item. After clearing the nuggets item you have the space to pick up the item [only if the nuggets number is 16x] . You can add some cmd tp prevent that happening by checking if you have empty slot or not ..

[finite nymph]

yeah i guess if you don't mind i would fs appreciate it! @true laurel

[gilded schooner]

How do I make a 2 player needed to start Game thing?

Someone help

[true laurel]

@gilded schooner explain further more about what you want to make!
You can do that in using tags if the number of players are less or scoreboard if that is high

[gilded schooner]

The thing is I'm making a PvP arena where two player are needed to start the game.
I want a waiting for another player to start thing in actionbar

[true laurel]

Hmm can you give me the coordinates of your arena

For your setup working under automation you want
1- pair player detection system [we can use tag]
2- is the arena is occupied or not system
3- kill detect system on arena [for next match]
4- player selection system [for those only intrested to join, if there is high number of players want to participate need a queue system]

[gilded schooner]

No I have made a seperate area for waiting

[true laurel]

Can you make a post ?
I will be back after a few hours

[gilded schooner]

Sure

I have this in a repeating command block for testing purposes, but why does this not work?

execute as @e[type=armor_stand,c=1] at @e[type=armor_stand,c=1] run tp @e[type=allay,c=1,r=3] ^5^1^2

It was supposed to look like the allay is simply floating at one location around the armor stand

[true laurel]

Hmm what you want to make bro?@restive portal

/execute at @e[type=armor_stand,c=1] run tp @e[type=allay,c=1,r=3] ^5^1^2

[restive portal]

So there's this anime called "Frieren: Beyond Journey's End" and

I wanted to make the baseline function to have it so my custom entities would hang around close to the shoulders of the player so it looks like it's floating

[true laurel]

Make an id system

[restive portal]

Yeah I'll figure it out

[true laurel]

/execute at @a as @e[type=allay] if score @p ID = @s ID run tp @s ^5^1^2

[restive portal]

I was thinking of a lazy way of just having two identical custom mobs with different ids but I'll touch the scoreboards now

[restive portal]

Thanks bro 🙌

[restive portal]

I might be stupid. I got it working the first time after adding giving them a point in one of the objectives or groups, but then it didn't :L

[true laurel]

The ID for allay and the player want to be same!

[turbid plaza]

Guys, do you know of any tool that helps you create camera movements with the new /camera command? I still struggle to create a simple and smooth 360 shot of a small area 😔

[crimson thunder]

Yes i have

Only on random works

Not on add or set

It only adds when you have a score of 1..3
And you're setting it to zero each tick at the end of the function so it will never add

[crimson thunder]

Oh okay I'll try if it works

Since this is in the tick.json, you need to change all the as @s to as @a

copy that into your function file

[crimson thunder]

Okay

Still doesn't function thanks for helping i think I'll go with random

[jade dirge]

what does your content log say?

[crimson thunder]

Nothing

[jade dirge]

did you set your score to zero and then run /function tn?

[crimson thunder]

I did put this on function

[jade dirge]

In chat, did you set your score to zero then run the function

[crimson thunder]

Yes

But the function inside don't work but on random works

[jade dirge]

oh I see what's wrong

make a function file named main.mcfunction. Put it in the tick.json

execute as @a[scores={tn=0..3}] run function tn

[crimson thunder]

What's wrong?

But if i put the function it will trigger every second

Only want is to right click then the function works

[jade dirge]

Put that command as the bottom line in your tn function then, should also work

You're running it once and then it stops. You need a way for it to add scores.

It's a scoreboard timer, each tick the function runs and adds a score. When it gets to 4 it resets and won't run anymore

[crimson thunder]

You it will reset and go back to 0?

[jade dirge]

It won't go back to zero, the player won't have a score

To start the function, you need to give the player a score of 0

[crimson thunder]

Oh okay thanks

[jade dirge]

That's what you're doing in chat, testing it by setting your score to zero

[true laurel]

I thought he already adding 0 score.

[jade dirge]

The original mcfunction was setting the score to zero so the timer never added a score and only ran once without a way to rerun the function since it isn't in tick.json

it was targeting players with a score of 1..3

[vagrant knoll]

is there a way to translate tellraw text in different languages? like i put my key and i can define it at lang files, so the text will be translated

[rose tusk]

Yes.

Do precisely as you suggested; then in your /tellraw command, use the translate component:

/tellraw @a {"rawtext":[{"translate":"item.stone_sword.name"}]}

[toxic lion]

are you able to orbit another entity with this?

[fallow cliff]

you can do that too

[toxic lion]

it doesn't seem to work

follow_orbit only follows the player from tests i've done

[jade dirge]

There's an example on the wiki:

# To orbit camera around entity tagged with 'wiki:orbital_camera.focus'

execute as @p at @e[tag=wiki:orbital_camera.focus] anchored eyes rotated as @s rotated ~ 0 positioned ^^1^-5 run camera @s set minecraft:free ease 0.1 linear pos ~~~ facing @e[tag=wiki:orbital_camera.focus]

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/commands/orbital-camera

[toxic lion]

that isn't follow_orbit

follow_orbit is an actual camera preset

it allows for 360 vectical and horizontal

the only difference is it cannot track entities so far

[restive portal]

/execute as @e[name=Bubbles] at @s run tp @s ^^^0.6 facing @e[type=!player,c=1,name=!Bubbles,type=!item,type=!xp_orb,scores={bubbled=!1}

This command would mean that any entity without a score of 1 in "bubbled" won't be approached by the "Bubbles" anymore, right?

I think all I have to do is when the Bubbles are spawned, they'd immediately set all entities nearby a score of 0 so they're in the scoreboard?

[rose tusk]

Yeah. You could do add 0 to at least track them on the scoreboard without changing their current bubbled score.

@restive portal

[knotty oriole]

unless score matches also is able to target players without a score fyi

[restive portal]

Sounds good to me, thanks

[restive portal]

Ig I can try that too

[restive portal]

What would this look like in command?

[knotty oriole]

To target all players without any score whatsoever:
/execute as @a unless score @s example.obj matches -2147483648.. run /command…

[restive portal]

Ah, I guess that would be good for pvp. I'm using mine for pve/eve though. Thank you for making it clear regardless! :D

[knotty oriole]

Hm? It works for any and all entities

U can substitute as @a for as @e if u wanna target all entities instead?

[restive portal]

Ohh. I'm dumb. Thank you again =^w^=

[knotty oriole]

Npnp, we all have our moments lmao 🤝

[fallow cliff]

I tried it when it came out
didn't seem to work
u can use the command above for 360 too
just change ~ 0 to ~ ~

[toxic lion]

yeh thanks too bad it doesnt work well

[restive portal]

Oh btw. This command would mean that they wouldn't approach the entity if they have a score, right?

tp @s ^^^0.6 facing @e[type=!player,c=1,family=!bubbles,type=!item,type=!xp_orb,scores={bubbled=!1}]

[true laurel]

What you are trying to make?

[restive portal]

An entity that would mark enemies with a scoreboard and then put effects only on those marked

Can't explain it well so ima record it

Got it semi-working, just have another problem, once all entities are set with 1 score, it stops working

It zooms around entities scored 0, then setting their score to 1. Once all entities are marked, it chills out, but I think I need to make it so it sets the score back to 0 once there's no more target

I could separate the tagging and the effect (damage/potion effects) and let it run as queue_commands on tick

[true laurel]

Idk how your cmd is working so I can't explain what is going on [issue]

/execute facing entity @e[...,c=1] eyes run tp @s ^^^0.6

[restive portal]

Cmd that sets score to 1

scoreboard players set @e[family=!bubbles,type=!player,type=!nkke:siren,r=1.2,type=!item,type=!xp_orb,family=!pacified,type=!nkke:bubble_attack_bullet,type=!arrow] bubbled 1

Cmd that tps the bubbles to their target

tp @s ^^^0.5 facing @e[type=!player,c=1,family=!bubbles,type=!item,type=!xp_orb,scores={bubbled=!1}]

Cmd that resets their score back to 0 or adds new enemies to the scoreboard

scoreboard players set @e[family=!bubbles,type=!player,type=!nkke:siren,r=60,type=!item,type=!xp_orb,family=!pacified,type=!nkke:bubble_attack_bullet,type=!arrow] bubbled 0

[true laurel]

Hmm a little rearrangement
1st cmd
/execute as @e[...,c=1] at @s unless entity @e[scores={bubbled=1},r=10] run scoreboard...
tp..
/execute as @e[scores={bubbled=1},....] unless entity @s[r=10] run scoreboard...

1st cmd select one entity and set his score=1 [if there is no other entity with a score=1 ! , so that it prevents the tp flick]
2nd cmd tp towards that entity
3rd cmd if the selected entity is out of range form the target set the score to 0

@restive portal is it ok for you?

[restive portal]

Ah, it is not arranged in any particular way but thank you regardless, the anti-tp flick is actually useful

[true laurel]

Wait a sec then

Wait what is the use of score=1?

@restive portal

[restive portal]

Ehmm so it doesn't tp towards non scored entities?

Like shot projectiles that stick around and stuff

I may have overthunk it again

[true laurel]

You want the entity [shooting bubble] want to tp towards other entity and do damage.
Hmm you can tag one target entity near to the bubble and do tp then damage , remove tag tag another one ...

[restive portal]

Tbh, it works, kinda.

Even if they're all tagged, they take damage now

The tp function and damage function are separate so they don't interfere if one doesn't work because of scores etc

[true laurel]

Eg-
execute as @e[rm=0.5,r=5,tag=!GG] at @s unless entity @e [tag=GG,r=10] run tag @s add GG
tp @s ^^^0.5 facing @e[tag=GG]
tag @e[tag=GG,r=0.5] remove GG
execute as @e[tag=GG] unless entity @s[r=10] run tag @s remove GG
Something like this

This will make a chain reaction.

And you can reduce the scoreboard

[restive portal]

I'll test it out tommorow
It's past midnight and the summon component is pissing me off

Remaking the bubble slimes made the summons work, thank God. I'm sleeping now.

Need a time-sensitive way to perform multiple operations on players standing on a block, so I guess this way the initial command can be to tag them, and then in the chain test that tag and perform each operation on them, without them having moved.

[pearl rain]

How to TP each player with the same tag to a different location like random spawns but one person at each location?

[turbid stump]

I sent you it on your post go checl

[true copper]

I have a question I’m trying to run an execute command in a function file but every time it’ll give me an error saying unexpected @s at execute at >>@s<< run

[rose tusk]

Sounds like your behavior pack's manifest is out of date. Make sure your min_engine_version is at least [1, 19, 50] @true copper

The game is expecting a position to go there. It's reading /execute at @s with the old syntax; so it's as if "at" is a player name.

[true copper]

Oh yeah that fixed it thank u

I appreciate ur help sprunkles

[ember ridge]

how do i make some chain and some repeat like in the command blocks?

#all of these must be always active
#repeat
titleraw @a[hasitem={item=genb10:iron_battleaxe_cooldown,location=slot.weapon.mainhand}] actionbar {"rawtext":[{"text":"Cooldown: "},{"score":{"name":"*","objective":"iron_battleaxe_cd"}}]}

#chain
execute as @a unless entity @s[scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=0..}] run scoreboard players set @s iron_battleaxe_cd 0
# make sure that this checks for left click instead of crouch
execute as @a[hasitem={item=genb10:iron_battleaxe,location=slot.weapon.mainhand},scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=0}] at @s unless entity @s[y=~1.5,dy=0] run scoreboard players set @s iron_battleaxe_cd 1.1
#these are chain
execute as @a[hasitem={item=genb10:iron_battleaxe,location=slot.weapon.mainhand},scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=1.1}] at @s run replaceitem entity @s slot.weapon.mainhand 0 genb10:iron_battleaxe_cooldown
execute as @a[scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=1.1}] at @s run playsound mace.smash_air @a[r=15]
scoreboard players set @a[scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=1.1}] iron_battleaxe_cd 1

#repeat every 2 ticks
scoreboard players add @e[scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=0.1..}] iron_battleaxe_cd -0.1

like theres a way to make these run chained or run repeat right

[knotty oriole]

I assume this is a function?

In a function, it acts identical to using a repeating command block, followed by chain unconditional command blocks without any exception — which is why its good practice to use only those in physical commands — so to make a tick delay ull need to use a scoreboard timer to create ur own

[ember ridge]

i have this function but it doesnt work for some reason

titleraw @a[hasitem={item=genb10:iron_battleaxe_cooldown,location=slot.weapon.mainhand}] actionbar {"rawtext":[{"text":"Cooldown: "},{"score":{"name":"*","objective":"iron_battleaxe_cd"}}]}
execute as @a unless entity @s[scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=0..}] run scoreboard players set @s iron_battleaxe_cd 0
# make sure that this checks for left click instead of crouch
execute as @a[hasitem={item=genb10:iron_battleaxe,location=slot.weapon.mainhand},scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=0}] at @s unless entity @s[y=~1.5,dy=0] run scoreboard players set @s iron_battleaxe_cd 1.05
execute as @a[hasitem={item=genb10:iron_battleaxe,location=slot.weapon.mainhand},scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=1.05}] at @s run replaceitem entity @s slot.weapon.mainhand 0 genb10:iron_battleaxe_cooldown
execute as @a[scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=1.05}] at @s run playsound mace.smash_air @a[r=15]
scoreboard players set @a[scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=1.05}] iron_battleaxe_cd 1
scoreboard players add @e[scores={iron_battleaxe_cd=0.05..}] iron_battleaxe_cd -0.05

it doesn't appear in /function as an option

nor does it work when i type the file name

[knotty oriole]

Ur trying to use decimals with scoreboards

[ember ridge]

oh

Yeah unfortunately scoreboards only accept integers and not floating point numbers
For a decimal display, ull need to use two scoreboards and join them to show integer.decimal — however for a non-displaying timer, just use ticks instead of seconds

How to change the score of iron_ingots depending how much you have in your inventory without a lot of command blocks?

[knotty oriole]

Ull need to use a binary method to list all base two values up until ur maximum; this takes only two commands per value:

/clear @a[hasitem={item=iron_ingot,quantity=64..}] iron_ingot -1 64

/scoreboard players add @a[hasitem={item=iron_ingot,quantity=32..}] count.iron_ingot 32

/clear @a[hasitem={item=iron_ingot,quantity=32..}] iron_ingot -1 32```
Etc., etc. down until u reach 1

For a full inventory, ull need all base two values from 1024-1

[spring edge]

Is it possible to to make a falling block

[rugged eagle]

How would I tp all monsters within 150 blocks radius but above y=50 into the void using a command block

I tried /tp @e[family=monster,r=150,y=50,dy=150

[wise crater]

Your command is incomplete

Did you accidentally not write out the whole thing or is that what you meant

Cause what you wrote tries to detect if there is a mob in the area you mentioned but gives an error because the bracket is left open and there is no location to tp to

[rugged eagle]

I figured it out I did /execute as @e[family=monster,x=-150,y=50,z=150,dx=300,dy=200,dz=300] run tp @s[r=150] ~ -100 ~

[wise crater]

You don't even really need the execute command honestly

[rugged eagle]

Oh how would I do it

[wise crater]

/tp @e[family=monster,x=-150,y=50,z=150,dx=300,dy=200,dz=300, r=150] ~ -100 ~

[rugged eagle]

I tried that it doesn’t work

I was trying to do it without a execute command but I don’t think I can do it without an execute command

[rose tusk]

Works fine for me without /execute. Any monster within 150 blocks of the command block, yet within the points (-150, 50, 150) and (150, 250, 450) is teleported successfully

[rugged eagle]

I know that works. I was saying it doesn’t work without an execute command.

[rose tusk]

I was describing what I saw when I ran Lightning's command.

If that is the behavior you expected, then it not working should not be a fault with the command, but something else in your setup.

[pearl rain]

Why does this run even though theirs only 1 player inside the area?

/execute if entity @e[x=146,y=86,z=162,dx=26,dy=14,dz=16,type=player,c=2] run say Found 2

[knotty oriole]

c doesnt exactly work like that

U have to use an entity counter:

/scoreboard players set “game.players” gb.count 0

/execute as @a run /scoreboard players add “game.players” gb.count 1```

I get ur logic tho, it just doesnt exactly work how u might expect it to in that application

[rose tusk]

"c" selects up to the number of entities. Since the command /execute if entity will return true if at least one eligible entity is found, the "c" argument does not serve any real purpose.

[wise crater]

Wait couldn't they use the execute command to get the nearest 2 players and then detect the furthest one of the 2?

Like this

/execute at @s[c=2] run execute if entity @e[x=146,y=86,z=162,dx=26,dy=14,dz=16,type=player,c=-1] run say Found 2

If this works, it seems a lot simpler than a scoreboard

[rose tusk]

No. If one player stood inside the volume, that would succeed too. A negative value for c simply reverses the sorting; in an array of found entities with length 1, the first and last entry would be the same entry.
Ignoring that, assuming two players were in the volume and the command did succeed, the result would be say Found 2 executing twice, due to how the command context would branch

Scoreboard is about the simplest way to do it. And it is much more obvious at a glance what it does. Clever programming is bad programming.

"Oh, this function initializes a number to 0, then increments 1 for each entity found, and succeeds if that number is 2 or more." Versus "this function tries executing as two entities, detecting if another entity is inside a volume, but should only succeed if all entities in the count are in the volume"

[storm wraith]

Can I write a custom command that gets a function from a script while also using the command in a script to return said function?

[rose tusk]

That would be better to ask in #1067535382285135923

[restive portal]

Does the command to damage entities using self-explosion/suicide/override only work on "invisible" entities that use damage sensor if they are the ones that execute the command to themself? Like, damage @s etc etc

[rose tusk]

There's a lot to unpack in that question.

Can you describe this "invisible" entity more? (is this a dummy entity / marker entity?)

[fallow cliff]

I believe /damage command should work on all entities

[restive portal]

The invisible I meant is that the damage it takes (from all sources) is set to false

[rose tusk]

Ah, invincible

I believe /damage in those damage types would affect them regardless of where the command is sourced from.

How do I give myself an item with lore

[rose tusk]

You must either use scripting, loot tables, or structure files.
With scripting, you can invoke setLore() on an ItemStack to give it lore.
With loot tables, you can use the "set_lore" function.
With structure files, you can save the item you want into a structure, then use an NBT editor to give it lore.

I want to replace all villagers in a three block vicinity of myself with pigs and vice versa with commands how do I do that?

[unborn burrow]

This seems to do every block, I want it to happen randomly to any of the blocks?

[fallow cliff]

Save a villager tagged replaced in a structure block.
Also save a pig tagged replaced in a structure block.
Now load the villager structure at all pigs in desired area, not tagged 'replaced'
Execute at the position of a all villagers in the defined area to kill a pig closest to their feet

Do the same thing to replace villagers with pigs

[spring edge]

Ok

[fallow cliff]

How big is your area?

You could just summon a couple of armor stands and use /spreadplayers

Then you can randomly replace the blocks at their feet and delete them

[unborn burrow]

I would say a 10 radius snow layer

Yeah, I think spreadplayers can work

Ty @fallow cliff

[fallow cliff]

oh, that should be easy enough

[fallow cliff]

Np!

[unborn burrow]

Didn't work

Unfortunately

[fallow cliff]

Oh hm, there could be several reasons why your system failed to work.. if you're willing to share the commands you used in order, maybe me or someone else can help you get it to work as intended ^^

[unborn burrow]

The issue is that it always spawn the armor stand on the highest block possible and not on every layer making the top layer decay faster than just randomly as intended

I used a basic spreadplayer command

[fallow cliff]

Yep, that's how the spreadplayer command works.

Since you want it to affect all desired y levels, what you could do is use a scoreboard randomiser before placing the block to select a random y level at the armor stand

[unborn burrow]

Or just spread the layers from side to side so it can work for all layers

hey gang

im trying to make a biomesystem with an expanding armorstand system that spawn structures

it chooses a random score from 3 biomes, (for which biome is chosen), and the biome swaps after biomeamount is reached

however, i want a system similar to this

red biome 1, yellow biome 2

where biome 2 overtakes red from selecting,

[lapis quest]

Add tag to armor stand to resemble as yellow's, and then add a condition for red tag armor stands to only generate using "unless entity" statement in execute command.

As both expand, the nearby red armor stands to the yellow ones should resist selecting.

[tender arrow]

how can i use the dx, dz, dy to face according to the players feet ?

[sand mulch]

Is there any way to make a selected entity copy anothers entity movement on Its own axis with the /execute and /tp commands

[lone bramble]

What?

[opal ice]

No, you can't access velocity without scriptAPI. But if you want the entity to fully mirror the movement of another, you can do something like this: /execute as {Your selected entity that will copy the movement} at {the entity that is being copied} run tp @s ~ ~5 ~ (you can change the ~ ~5 ~ to your liking of course.)

[lapis quest]

Are you pointing out the use similar to carets? Because d values only refer to offset position and there is no way it works along with the player's direction

[tender arrow]

any alternatives

[lapis quest]

This is a valid placement. What matters is that the preceding block points into the next block. These arrangements are valid:

[teal seal]

for some reason when i did 1 command block and 2 chain command blocks like the one on my screenshot, the third one didnt work (all of the commands were right and the command block were on uncondicional)

Were they all receiving power? (Or set to Always Active?)

Likely user error; could have been an error in the third command syntax, logic, or perhaps it wasn’t powered

[teal seal]

chain command blocks arent set to always active as default?

[hollow atlas]

/ say Species: Tyrannosaurus rex. Tamed: Yes. Owner: [owner_name]. Diet: Carnivorous

How do I make the
[owner_name] the actual username of the owner?

[knotty oriole]

Don’t use /say, use the better alternative: /tellraw

It allows for far more capabilities than /say or /tell — but it’s a little harder to learn since u gotta learn rawtext JSON formatting

Regardless, the owner name would need to be stored as an ID kept on the entity, and the owner to form a pair between them

This would be a unique scoreboard value that remains consistent on the player when they first join; whenever they tame an entity, that ID is given to the entity also

We can use a clever trick to check for two entities of a matching ID:
/execute as <target1> positioned as <target2> if score @s id = @n id run /…

[hollow atlas]

I don't know anything about that or scoreboard

[knotty oriole]

Time to start learning then I suppose

I would rate this system to be an Intermediate level

U need:

1. An “On First Join” system that automatically assigned a player a unique ID to a scoreboard
2. A command that can print a rawtext that shows the name of the Owner

[hollow atlas]

Can I see some examples of this? Cuz I can easily learn new things with .json by seeing others do them

[knotty oriole]

I’ll link u to the wiki where u can learn ab rawtext

They have examples for all 4 components

[knotty oriole]

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/text/rawtext

It’s not too hard to learn, but it is a little difficult to remember when ure first learning it

I personally learnt to remember the format by having to write a lot of them by hand for a project many years ago — but it depends on how u learn best

Ull struggle most w the ID system since u aren’t as familiar yet w scoreboard

Yelo, I'm trying to make an execute command that detects if enemy are not on the floor so it targets those only airborne or flying ina range of 30, but the command doesn't seem to work .3.

/execute as @s unless entity @e[type=!player,r=30,dy=1] run say yay

Any workarounds? It only seem to detect if an entity is close by, then it won't run the command.

[jade dirge]

Are you running this in a function (bc of the as @s)? Where's the if block air subcommand?

[restive portal]

Yes it's on a function run by an entity

I don't get the "if block air subcommand"

[jade dirge]

You are trying to detect enemies in the air? execute if block ~~-1~ air ...

[restive portal]

Could you elaborate? I can't quite grasp what I'm trying to understand.

I guess I could use this one from my older addon

execute as @e[type=!ds:saitama_chill,family=!player] at @s positioned ~~14~ if entity @e[type=ds:saitama_chill,r=14] run

[jade dirge]

first, who is the entity that is running the function? the @s?

[restive portal]

Alright, in the example here, Saitama is running the whole function, but this specific execute command is run as the entity being detected positioned 14 blocks above Saitama, and if Saitama is within the 14 radius, it would run a "jump" function

But tbh it's not as good since the height is kinda specific, unless if I could add multiple positions at once, which I probably can't .3.

[jade dirge]

execute as @s at @s if entity @e[type=!player, y=~, dy=64] run <cmd>

Edited dy to not use relative

Use Saitama's position so you can use relative y and dy. Adjust to where you need to.

[restive portal]

I see, could I use unless so that it won't run unless the entity is beyond 5 blocks relative to Saitama who is on the ground?

[jade dirge]

Like 5 blocks above?

[restive portal]

5 blocks and above, basically

[jade dirge]

use y=~5

[restive portal]

Alright, got it. Thank you very much

[jade dirge]

Np 👍

[rose tusk]

I'm unsure if you want the relative coordinate on dy there. That would dynamically adjust the bounds of the volume by your coordinate; the higher you are, the taller the box. Being at y=100 would make a box that is 164 blocks tall, stretching from 100..264; being at y=-64 would make a box that is 1 block tall.

(Assuming it works how I expect it to work)

[jade dirge]

ah yes my mistake, thx!

[cloud maple]

I want my camera to see an entity as a third person, how can I do this?

[restive portal]

Helloo, the command doesn't work. Errors at ~>"30"< from dy, and using only dy=30 results in "if subcommand" failing

Got it. Use the whole x, y, z selectors and dx dy dz

/execute as @s at @s positioned ~-5 ~-5 ~-5 if entity @e[x=~,y=~,z=~,dx=10,dy=10,dz=10,type=!player] run say A cow is nearby!

[rough geyser]

There is no 30 in your command

[restive portal]

Oh, no no, I changed the dy

/execute as @s at @s if entity @e[type=!player,y=~4,dy=~30] run say wow!

[restive portal]

This one works tho

[rough geyser]

You can't use ~ in dx, dy and dz

[restive portal]

Yeah

I noticed 🧊

[knotty oriole]

Dxyz is not a coordinate, it’s the distance from the input coordinate — aka a volume

So ~30 would be the same as just saying 30, hence why it doesn’t work

[restive portal]

Yep yep. Too annoying to work with so back to the Rs I go.

[severe python]

mhhhhhh why is commands still a thing
script api mostly replaced every single thing from commands

[knotty oriole]

Cus a majority of people on bedrock aren’t necessarily PC players so most people just don’t have effective access to anything dev wise but commands

On top of that, they’re a lot more well known and syntactically more learnable, so they’re a good entry level for people starting to learn development

Some people still choose to learn commands even w other access for a variety of reasons also
For example, I now have a pc and know scripts and such, but I still choose to do lots of Commands only projects for a few reasons
Partially for the challenge: bc I enjoy the problem solving aspect from the limitations of commands
On the other hand, there is a moral reason, bc I enjoy developing for other’s who are still in situations where they’re limited to commands

For big publications, u should definitely go w add ons, but commands still do have a place in the community, even as a much weaker technology

Plus, there are a few handful of things in scripts at the minute that are either only possible or more convenient w commands, so it’s just good to have that knowledge even as an add ons dev

[severe python]

okay, yeah can agree

[tough flare]

uh are you saying script api is not challenging?

[restive portal]

I saw people talking about the @n selector, is that a real thing? Can't seem to find anything in the wiki

[jade dirge]

Yes, it's the new way to get the nearest entity. Need to add it to the Understanding Selectors page.

[restive portal]

Does it require a specific min version to work? I use 1.20.30 for my addons and would like to try that selector so I wouldn't have to use c=1

[jade dirge]

Yes, it would require the version it was introduced. Why are you using 1.20.30?

[restive portal]

What's the newest version I could use?

[jade dirge]

whatever the update is at now, 1.21.xxx

There may be a specific reason your add-ons are on 1.20.30, you'll have to see.

But you can still use the 1.20.30 addons and still use the @n selector in command
blocks or make a new function pack that is up to date.

[restive portal]

Okiee thank youu

[knotty oriole]

It’s definitely challenging, but in its own way
Commands are easier to write, but bc they’re more limited, the skill ceiling is a lot lower meaning there is much more problem solving to create things
Script API on the other hand is harder to write syntactically, but bc u can do basically anything w it, there is a lot less problem solving to reach ur outcome

[tough flare]

there is a lot less problem solving to reach ur outcome
thats fair for small projects, but definitely not the case for larger projects. if there is barely any problem solving involved with the script api, then there would be no need for a 'software developer' job. while in commands u try to get smth working, in script api you also have to think abt like how efficient the strategy is and memory concerns etc.
also, you still have to apply mathematical concepts and logical concepts in scripts, no different to commands.

Script API on the other hand is harder to write syntactically
That is a pretty subjective statement, and ppl who have prior knowledge in programming languages would not find it challenging. maybe for someone who usually does commands will find the syntax of javascript challenging, but the syntax is actually the standard and minecraft commands is the one deviating from the standard.

lol i just realised that was a pretty large sentence

[rose tusk]

I came from Minecraft commands first. For me, my biggest struggle was not syntax. There were plenty of programming concepts I simply had no grasp of; pure functions being one example. I thought functions had to always mutate some global value; the idea of primitives being passed by value (not by reference) was weird at first.

Commands definitely have a lower barrier to entry. You can get started on any device simply with some command blocks in-game.

Hellooo. What command can scan at specific spots? I try

/execute if entity @e[type=!player,r=6,rm=5] run say You're persistent!

Doesn't activate if there's entities at both 5 and 6 rather than at least one. Unless if I just make the entities run the command instead?

Like, if it detects me at these ranges, it activates? Would "unless" subcommand work better?

[naive timber]

try:
/execute as @e[type=player] at @s if entity @e[type=!player,r=6,rm=5] run say You're persistent!

[quiet ferry]

execute unless entity @e[tag=Pirate1,r=20,rm=19] run structure load Pirate1 ~ ~2 ~

just spamms the structure

anyway to fix it

[knotty oriole]

U need some kind of additional close condition, whatever that be

It’s up to u what that is, whether it’s a tag, score, or even if block / if blocks to check if the structure exists at the coordinates

[quiet ferry]

its fine i got it already

[obsidian sky]

guys anything happened to can_climb in these later versions? for some reason when riding mobs won't auto jump 1 block

[covert moon]

Hi

[halcyon kraken]

How can I make something look at something and when it gets close to another entity like r=1 the entity gets tagged and then if there's any nearby other entities that doesn't have the tag it will go to the entity and will remove the tag of the other entity

Chat I have a question, using the tp @s ^^^1, what's a good tickspeed to use it so it looks smooth?

I'm using 0 tickspeed but it's too fast and when combined with damage command and a kill @s command it deals too much damage it's supposed to and sometimes doesn't kill @self here is the function:

execute at @s if entity @e[r=1, type=!nzrk:aog, family=!nazarick] run damage @e[family=!nazarick,type=!item,type=!xp_orb,type=!lightning_bolt,type=!evocation_fang,type=!tnt,type=!arrow,family=!inanimate,type=!player,r=3.5,type=!nzrk:aog] 80 override

execute at @s if entity @e[r=0.8, family=!nazarick,type=!item,type=!xp_orb,type=!lightning_bolt,type=!evocation_fang,type=!tnt,type=!arrow,family=!inanimate,type=!player,type=!nzrk:aog] run kill @s

tp @s ^^^1 facing @e[family=!nazarick,type=!item,type=!xp_orb,type=!lightning_bolt,type=!evocation_fang,type=!tnt,type=!arrow,family=!inanimate,type=!player,c=1,type=!nzrk:aog]

particle minecraft:electric_spark_particle ~~~

[restive portal]

Should I just run both damage and kill @s inside another function when it reaches the desired range?

[restive portal]

Nvm fixed it

[lone abyss]

which is better

/playsound or playsound via animation in resource pack

[wise blade]

If you want to time the sound with a point in the animation, or if you want the sound to loop, then playsound in animation might be preferable

Hello, i come back on minecraft and it seem something change , before on my script i was able to use player.runCommand(execute @s ~~~ effect @s resistance 15 50 true) but now it do not work, they change syntaxes ?

[mild belfry]

The new update seems to have broken my scoreboard display. I had a list display in the pause menu and It no longer exist. They changed the whole layout for the pause. Menu. So I'm guessing thats why it no longer works.

Is there any way to still use this command? And be able to see the scoreboard in the pause menu

/scoreboard objectives setdisplay list

guys

how can i play a sound with commands in a way that the sound follows a player

like, when i use a playsound normally and move away from where i was, i cant hear the sound anymore

This suggests your behavior pack's manifest is out of date.

• In the manifest, set "format_version": 2
• In the manifest's header object, set the version to at least 1.19.50 (best practice is whatever is latest version) "min_engine_version": [1, 19, 50]

[unique spindle]

Looking to make a sound detection system like a spider sense that notifies the player with a visual cue when a mob is nearby. Maybe having an effect similar to the vignette when deep underground but a different color that flashes to let the player know when a mob is within a certain distance of them and maybe even tracking them.

[knotty oriole]

creating a vignette isnt rly a commands question

[unique spindle]

Ok thanks for the correction 😁

Is it possible to retrieve items using the item ID instead of the name?

Like the old stonecutter, id 246 if I remember correctly

[knotty oriole]

No

Why would u wanna do that anyway

[polar cliff]

Thank you

[lean prism]

Is for help a friend with her proyect

he meant the specific game mechanic in your project because maybe there is a different way you could do it

[lean prism]

Sorry if my english is bad Im spanish and I dont know much english

We are making an addon that, through commands, allows us to obtain hidden blocks such as the nether reactor core

The problem is that they cannot be obtained by entering the name in the command, but if the "item id" of the object is known, it should be possible to obtain

Using the old stone cutter as an example, suppose that its item/block id was 246, we seek to be able to obtain said object using that id, since using the name is impossible

I have a tool that allows us to obtain the id of all the blocks in the game, including hidden blocks such as the stone cutter or the nether reactor core

[lean prism]

@fallow cliff

[polar shard]

xp_troll1234

If the id is preserved, and the item/block is kept in the code, even if hidden, in theory it should be possible to obtain it using its ID

xp_troll1234

the problem is precisely that, finding a way to replace the name with the id in the command
