There are new codes too
literally what i just said 💀
from §0 to §u*
minus the formatting codes
wraith bluff
m and n aren't used in bedrock for underline or striketrhough
wispy cipher
yeah its broken
wraith bluff
cause I read someone said tht they were already used but they aren't
wispy cipher
and has been broken for a long time
wraith bluff
yeah
grim wagon
from §0 to §u*
imagine adding new color codes to UI what will be replaced with new one (oreUI) what doesnt support color codes 😂
karmic finch
Yes it does. It doesn't support entering it in places like chat, but you can use it in command blocks and functions.
They have to support it because the end poem and splashes still use it for some reason.
hexed briar
Looks like they dropped the "underline" character code.
bedrock used to have these, technically. it's usable, but not visible. so the code works but not the color nor character format
hard patrol
You also forgot about §g
hard patrol
Looks like they dropped the "underline" character code.
They replaced it. I wonder why
hexed briar
yeah, that was disappointing.
hard patrol
m and n aren't used in bedrock for underline or striketrhough
They are, check my tweet
The old format didn't work because of bugrock stuff
But now n and m uses colors

is that intented behavior??
normal moat
no through css?
hexed briar
They might have to convert their existing character/color code component into Ore-UI
but chances are, they probably won't. since html and stuff allows you to use any type of colors anyways.
hard patrol
If they allow use to use html stuff in strings then sure we can use any color.
hexed briar
but chances are, they probably won't. since html and stuff allows you to use any...
If they work Ore-UI for core hud gameplay, yeah something like that might happen

hushed kettle
Ianvi, what type of code editor you use?

i use vscode to open the minecraft vanilla json ui
hexed briar
those things you described sounds like related to json being invaild, that's why I'm asking.
do you have uh, syntax checker something like that?
hushed kettle
do you have uh, syntax checker something like that?
can you elaborate
hexed briar
JSON-UI won't load properly if the JSON is invaild, don't forget that there won't be any errors related to being invaild other than element failed to load.
hexed briar
It works like half of file and just it
hexed briar
Use layer property on that element.
hushed kettle
what layer value should i use
hexed briar
( i.e "layer": 5 )
The higher number is, the more element will be Infront.
The lower number is, the more element will be behind.
hexed briar
I'd recommend to use that on those element in child element if you using inside of parent.
putting it on parent will absolutely do nothing but put it Infront only parent, not child elements.
and I highly suggest not to put massive high or low number as for layer value
It's worst idea, you don't want to randomly guess which number that will put it Infront or behind
hushed kettle
and I highly suggest not to put massive high or low number as for layer value
i put 10 and this happened
hexed briar
Which elements did you put?

You could use ignore property.
i.e "ignored": true
what this will do is completely ignores the element, therefore it won't load it.
this works in every element types.
hushed kettle
this works in every element types.
so for when i need to hide the npc screen so i can show my elements infront

hexed briar
if you want to hide, use ignore property should do.
no prefix required whatsoever as long the element you wanted to hide is true.

You could modify the button state panel to use specific offsets for the hover text/image. Then just give the appropriate offset for each button
mystic heart
didnt work
if you want to use the ignored property, it only supports variables in parent elements. Since you are defining the variable "$is_addon_screen" in the same element that it would ignore, you get an error.
you also can't use bindings in variable equations, so your variables section won't work.

can you explain a little further?
mystic heart
can you explain a little further?
You can display the hover text from a custom label element that you make and then define that in the button. So in the button you would have:
"$button_type_panel": "axoyl.custom_label_panel",
And then define that label element:
"custom_label_panel": {
"ignored": "(not $hover_state)",
"type": "label",
"text": "$button_hover_text",
"offset": "$hover_text_offset"
},
Where you'd then define the hover text and offset in the button where the type panel is defined.
hexed briar

torpid axle

hexed briar
only server-side, e.g where you outputs script-api or molang for how much your health is.

hexed briar
bindings belong to bindings property only if you're gonna uh, combine each modifier things. Bindings also has visible thing where it works familiarly with ignore property, do that.
hexed briar
you can, but doing that increases the complexity.
while title and actionbar does very much yet simpler.
You either get script-api or molang to constantly display what health you has.
title/subtitle and actionbar methods uses json-raw, e.g titleraw and tellraw.
with this, you can pick up scoreboard and paste them as values.
with json-ui, you can conditional render with it.
well if so, those things are useless
you can just, code it yourself to display in pocketmine just it
plugins and stuff
torpid axle
sadge pocketmine can do most of the needed stuff in the vanilla

pocketmine does not use vanilla content, therefore it's from scratch.
collections property.
although since I wasn't making json-ui for in-game (hud_screen) stuff for more than 6+ months ago, this is where I can't help you from there unless I go back and study it myself once again
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I guess you can search the message history in there #old-json-ui
you might find stuff you desired for.
#hud_subtitle_text_string
although, not recommended to use subtitle as bindings.
- subtitle does not have factory, it can't reload the element. therefore it'll be static text.
- subtitle needs to be only inside vanilla elements, otherwise will have the same static effect.
- title is REQUIRED, since subtitle will load once title is loaded.
- sometimes subtitle does not work well.
Find it at root_panel element I suppose
or just, disable it via settings screen.

those are the changes i make
[email protected]_background is the pause screen's buttons parent
button_panel is a stack_panel

you're putting that property in panel the right now 
put it on menu_background/button_panel element thing.

put it on `menu_background/button_panel` element thing.
put in there but its still in the same place and it doesnt return a error anymore
hexed briar
can you show that code again
hushed kettle
hexed briar
so that mean yeah it's working.
wait I forgot
to make anchor effects in stack_panel type, use_child_anchors property must in the current type and children element must have their own anchor too.
i.e
"cool_looking_stack_panel": {
"type": "stack_panel",
"use_child_anchors": true,
...
"controls": [
{
"child_panel_01": {
"type": "<any type>",

you'll understand the pain I go through with toggles
buttons is just basically too much variables

and rendering a specific element based on the toggle's value
right now i have to fix this beautiful mess i caused by adding another ui
hexed briar
average json-ui experience
red wagon
my own fault, because i didnt write the elements from scratch because i thought "well i won't add any other UI to npc_dialogues anyways, i'll just override the vanilla ones"
hexed briar
just don't override/reuse vanilla UI too much, it's bad idea honestly.
red wagon
had to learn that the hard way
it was also a lot quicker to just build the layout from scratch
only thing that took me forever is to figure out why my elements didnt render but turns out it was something with size & stack_panel
hexed briar
panel is recommend for you know, standard stuff. stack panel is stack every child elements into giant stacked pile
just uh, don't mess with stack panel too much
red wagon
stack panel makes sense for the element though, since it is a book texture split into three parts
for the most part it works, just have to redo the button elements with custom ones so they won't cut off
hexed briar
button's pudding?
red wagon
funny enough the whole thing only shows up when i set the UI's parent to 600x400px but not when i set it to 75%
red wagon
button's pudding?
design, label size etc. They will probably have conditional images anyways
half way through making the UI the whole plan on how we will use the UI changed anyways 💀
hexed briar
percentage is meant for your actual screen resolution size, so yeah that'll likely break if you uh, done it poorly
red wagon
well it shouldn't break this randomly, the parent element takes up the full screen
so molang should be able to calculate the correct size but ayyy >.< json ui makes no sense sometimes

Sometimes you might wanna make a cool stuff in stack panel until you realize that unnecessary panels may needed because it hates you.
sometimes stack panel broke when some child elements has incorrect size with absolutely no error logs whatsoever
sometimes the entire UI doesn't display anything with no syntax errors because of conditional rendering failure
welcome to json-ui
even mojang themselves hated it so much that they just went "screw this we gonna make ore-ui"
even at vanilla codes, it's really horrible to look at
red wagon
i wish they would just use public, already well established technologies instead of reinventing the wheel with worse performance and plenty design flaws
though i have not taken a look at ore-ui yet
html-based screens in games already were a thing for years though
hexed briar
Ore-UI is basically react native html UI thing that was supposedly "make mojang new employees easy to make UI stuff" that what they said in ore-ui introduction stream thing
hexed briar
html-based screens in games already were a thing for years though
wii settings is also based in html somehow.

How do I give a parent to my childrens ?
children element are referenced in "controls": []
for example
"namespace": "blah",
"parent_element": {
"type": "any type you want it to be",
"controls": [
{
"child_element": {}
}
]
}
is there a list of all the pre-made binding_names?
there seems to be one in the json ui documentation but not all of them are there
hexed briar
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
DO NOT PUT ACTIONBAR OR TITLE VARIABLES IN BINDINGS
IT DOES NOT WORKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

umm, can someone take a look at my pause_screen.json file and tell me why nothing is showing up? Im editing and removing stuff i dont need. Im trying to make the feedback and achievements buttons into the same stack panel as the main buttons. When i went through it i messed something up and now the pause screen doesnt show up.
worn oasis
i know thats typically not the type of question i should be asking, but ive been combing through for hours trying to find the issue. The code should be easy to read i just cant find what went wrong. If i cant fix it in my code, i have to rewrite the entire screen again.

How to remove server_form animation?
normal moat
it is like top of the server_form.json filr
spring aspen
in ui_common right?
even if I remove them all, when sending a second menu, it "disappears" and then appears
normal moat
well it is a intended delay between closing and opening of forms
it cannot be flawless
spring aspen
dialogue is
normal moat
it is dialogue
hexed briar
there was but, why?
you can disable it directly without modifying anything by going to your game setting > video > "screen animations" off
hexed briar
well if your UI has a displaying delays, that means your game cannot handle it.
the more elements you're putting, the more pressure and longer json-ui's to load.
you can't just throw like 20+ buttons and expecting it to run smooth with no issues
spring aspen
have crash if i put 20+
I just said a negative point of the dialogue
server_form no have limit i think
hexed briar
my point still stands.
the more elements you're throwing or putting, the more pressure and will make JSON-UI loads longer therefore more delays
Also, Dialogue (NPC_screen.json) only has 6 buttons maximum, you're doing something the game wouldn't allow you to. therefore, that was your fault for pushing it.
spring aspen
when I put 20 buttons in the dialogue, it did not generate a delay
in a custom menu
because the dialogue menu no have "reopen" anim
it just pops up another menu on top
preserving the previous menu
and there doesn't seem to be a delay, because of that
but the server form can send the same menu, close everything (at this moment the hud appears, but npc_dialogue does not) and then opens the menu
@vapid root make it
but I think it's dialogue
hexed briar
server forms.
you can't dynamically change the title. actually any screens.
it'll reset itself and that what you've seeing.
spring aspen
without animation
hexed briar
removing animation in json-ui won't help anything.
the "screen animation" option in setting controls that here. you'll still receive the same effects.
spring aspen
even deactivating in video, it was not the same as the video

in the video he is sending another form on top

how can i increase load times with my UI pack?

"controls": [ {
"[email protected]_frame": {

"size": [ 12, 12 ],
"controls": [ { "[email protected]_icon_button": {} } ]
}
},
"column_frame": {
"type": "panel"
},```
Does this need to be there? The "icon panel" calls an empty panel. and then sets values and that controls the actual button. it feels like an extra step. Can i not just put the ``"[email protected]_icon_button": {}`` in the first controls?then change the size from the actual button.
hexed briar
how can i increase load times with my UI pack?
optimize your code and use less code as possible, avoid using vanilla's code and rewrite it as your own so you can detect and troubleshoot where the problem was, alongside with able to remove anything you want order to reduce the loading delays.
try to avoid using much bindings or variables as possible.

This code should be changing the values on the buttons, but it doesn't. Its still the vanilla words and for some reason i cant change the size of them. Its supposed 100px x 17px, smaller buttons. But the properties wont change. I checked the button panel (parent) and it doesn't affect the size or content of the button.

bc i want them to be smaller to fit the icon buttons
umbral dagger
<@112019269448962048> what's it supposed to look like

the 4 are the right size on this?

nope. they are smaller in width because i changed the size of the panel they are contained in. But changing the hieght of that stack panel doesnt change the size of the buttons
umbral dagger
nope. they are smaller in width because i changed the size of the panel they are...
so you want the buttons to be wider?
worn oasis
wider and shorter
umbral dagger
you want them to auto fit to the size of the panel??

i want them to be 100px wide and 17 px tall.

one are compact, which somehow over 82 lines. ( not using my format type either ...
i really dont understand the appeal of calling the screen from the main screen 😭
seems like extra work + unnecessary
obsidian crest
ig
hexed briar
the screen element allows you to draw elements outside of safe zone area, or basically takes over your screen without the needs of safe zone.
therefore making background and stuff seems easier than I thought.
normally making json-ui outside of screen element does not allow you to draw elements outside of that thing
therefore you're stuck at limited safe zone area
and everytime people has their own safe zone area, your UI might looks uh, wonky
although that screen element is pretty much limited I suppose, you can't create another screen element and expecting it to work well
without crashes.

Guys what element to edit on server_form.json to edit the title?
worn oasis
oh yeah its all coming together
just gotta figure out what happened to the player list
worn oasis
the playerlist moves with an aspect resizing but it is there. I couldnt anchor it to the top right of the screen so i had to use offset to get it there. If i can find out how to get the anchor to work it would work better
i also gotta find out why the skins icon is so dark when when its not supposed to be.

I've tried to fix this for days now, i have it looking like img 1 but i want it to look like img2. The player list is kinda free floating. It moves around instead of anchoring to the top right. I cant get it to lock into place there. My code is well formatted and easy to read. I could use some help on this. thx ❤️
hexed briar
your code is uh, not really well formatted and easy to read.
it's even worse than my format, regular json format and even rawtext format and I can't even format it into regular json format for some reason.
satan calm down
worn oasis
maybe it changes when it gets imported to your editor, it looks good on my IDE (fleet)
yours look like this?
hexed briar
yep.
worn oasis
oh
hexed briar
It looks like disastrous.
worn oasis
ig im just bad its easy for me to read i dont like the base json format. I like to make it use as few lines as i can while steall being readable. how can i improve it?
hexed briar
uh I suppose optimize the way you read brackets.
that thing is important I suppose, since you'll know where that element was from etc
messing around brackets like that is pretty hard to read even regular json format standard.
worn oasis
? like that?
limber quartzBOT
hexed briar
yeah
worn oasis
ig i see the indents as my main formatting tool. Just by looking at the indent i can tell what scope im in.
hexed briar
mine looks that, those spaced lines are indicates where the element was so yeah
but for people sakes, I suppose you should use regular json format instead if you're asking for help and giving people your code
worn oasis
yeah the triple stacked closing brackets just look awful for my taste.
hexed briar
triple stacked brackets is pretty much common if my element is long
but yeah, regular json format for people here I suppose. otherwise they uh. might say the same as me
and good christ my IDE can't format your code into regular json format
worn oasis
my controls, variables, and bindings all basically use this As a JS, and HTML dev this is very readable for me.
hexed briar
vscode has colored brackets that really nice for looking where your element brackets located
I wish I have that in my code editor
worn oasis
i would use VSCode if it didnt take 20 minutes to open it.
hexed briar
that's reasonable
worn oasis
so im trying JetBrains new Fleet IDE bc i used to use IntelliJ and VSCode when im doing bigger projects.
hexed briar
I saw someone's updating their VSCode over 1GB so I guess that's a thing nowadays
worn oasis
VsCode is very good for bigger projects but Fleet imo is like a lightweight VSCode
hexed briar
mine probably VSCode but in mobile but still not VSCode though ( because I mainly develop stuff in mobile, not PC/laptop unfortunately )
worn oasis
nice if your mobile dev then yeah VSCode prolly the safe bet.
i do whatever, no real reason other than "i dont like this so how do i change it?"
hexed briar
Acode (that what I'm using currently) looks almost identical to VSCode since it has tools and stuff that thing has
VSCode also has web version, kinda like blockbench
and I hate it.
worn oasis
never tried Acode or block bench tbh
im a traditional dude using NP++ as my fallback lmao
hexed briar
well uh, blockbench is polygon model editor, that what most people use it to develop their minecraft custom mobs addon's. even mojang employee themselves use that.
Acode is "VSCode" but in steroid for android users.
worn oasis
oh i got Bridge for my minecraft stuff but i dont know how to use it at all, ik it can do alot but i dont get it.
hexed briar
bridge is confusing to me too and still to this day
so I don't use it.
anyways, to your uh. UI problems with player list not being offset'd.
have you anchored player_list_scrolling_panel element?
worn oasis
ill do some looking into block bench maybe that'll come in handy over bridge
hexed briar
If you know how to use blender before, you might be familiar with blockbench with ease.
blockbench is just polygon model editor that was used to of course, make minecraft looking models.
worn oasis
ive dabbled in blender, made a few models for a roblox game a while back
that would be great if i could add and edit 3d models
ive put an anchor on every one of panels and tried them the panel doesnt fix itself when the screen resizes.
hexed briar
for what im reading so far, player_list_scrolling_panel doesn't seem to have any anchors.
the pause screen contents is abit odd.
worn oasis
oh i mean i have tried it and removed it, i just re tried it and am adding and removing anchors
hexed briar
player_list_scrolling_panel is a parent element and also has player_lists as child element,
worn oasis
correct.
hexed briar
so therefore, that should affect the anchors.
nevermind I see you're using vanilla based screen existing codes, that explains it
worn oasis
where do i put the anchors, because idk how the anchors work with parent and child stuff, like do i anchor it inside the control or do i anchor the element itself?
yeah i basically just took the vanilla code and editted it alot
hexed briar
common mistake
worn oasis
removing stuff i didnt need or think i dont need.
hexed briar
but yeah I'll see what can I do
worn oasis
well its first project, idk what im doing yet lmao
hexed briar
deleting vanilla UI code does nothing honestly, if you add the same vanilla element name and modify to look different. that definitely can cause some problems
since you're overriding vanilla codes
therefore some vanilla code are still there.
hexed briar
well, mine are complete rewrite process where it does not involve vanilla UI codes
worn oasis
i didnt know i could delete it entirely
hexed briar
yeah, that's how JSON-UI works apparently
you don't expect to delete existing vanilla UI code and expecting it'll gone
unless you use modification property to get rid of it, but that was next impossible task because no one wants to copy and paste the same property with different elements to delete, remember that there is thousands of vanilla code that could potentially take forever to get rid of it
worn oasis
i thought in order to change whats on the screen you have to edit the currently existing things. Because if my pack isnt changing them then the vanilla UI would show up with mine bc of how texture packs work, but ig not.
hexed briar
you could do that by using another UI file entirely.
which vanilla code will not interfere yours.
worn oasis
i still dont understand a large portion of JSON as im still new to doing it. It looks simple but JSON UI is so confusing imo
hexed briar
Well, that's why json-ui is "toughest to learn"
worn oasis
i wish more tutorials existed on JSON UI, other than a few basics tutorials there isnt much out there other than the docs, which confuses me enough tbh
hexed briar
even people here are not recommending to do that since json-ui is now no longer supported and mojang working Ore-UI into the game. therefore json-ui is no longer gets an changes or update
json-ui also does not have documentations, everything on wiki about json-ui is people findings
it sounds like mojang does not wants you to modify their UI, but even though you still can. kinda like "you can but it doesn't mean you should"
worn oasis
yeah ik about that, im planning on an ORE-UI version of my pack bc mojang said they do want it to be customizable. But we got a long time until ORE-UI is fully developed. At least 2 years at the rate we going now.
i hate the bedrock vanilaa UI
hexed briar
actually, it's been almost 4-5 years.
worn oasis
its way too big even on -1 GUI Scale
i cant stand how fucking massive each button needs to be.
smaller, simpler... so much better
hexed briar
that is weak point of json-ui.
json-ui been here almost like decade now.
it just people don't want to modify them
worn oasis
hopefully ORE-UI is much easier to develop with, and has proper docs. I like code in all forms. so i enjoy the challenge of JSON UI sometimes.
other times i get frustrated bc idk wtf is wrong lol
hexed briar
yeah but real question is, will it be data-driven like json-ui has?
honestly looking at render dragon getting rid of shader is probably still concerning to me
worn oasis
could prolly find out on the github for ORE-UI
they did that bc they are making their own customizable shaders i heard
hexed briar
Ore-UI was open-source project for you know, if developers want to use html/react technology on their games.
it's pretty much unclear and up to mojang if they ever want to implement that
if mojang choose to stay more not so data-driven friendly stuff. I suppose you can't modify ore-ui with resource pack unless modifying the game
( which this still not possible to this day, but we'll have to see )
worn oasis
bro the anchor thing is the LAST piece of code i need to touch for the UI. Im not doing the settings screen that shit is a nono, especially vanilla code.
once the anchor issue is fixed i dont have to touch the JSON code again and can just finish texture work
hexed briar
rewrite it 
actually I could convert it into another UI file so I can see which problem that was and could troubleshoot it
worn oasis
nah bro, i lowkey gonna steal Arc-UI settings screen and throw credits but i could figure out to implement it into mine
im not rewriting settings, i made the left side buttons smaller and thats it lmao
hexed briar
can't without the Arc-UI core folder
hexed briar
can't make it more simpler to edit because I don't want to create 10 UI files for specific functions
so I throw everything into one file and call it a day
settings section folder is already simplest enough you'll ever seen from me
worn oasis
i still never figured out how to add a button, i dont understand Bindings in the slightest lmao.
hexed briar
expect about screen
you don't have to add any bindings
just.
"your_button@common_buttons.light_text_button": {
"$button_text": "blah",
"$pressed_button_name": "<screen function>"
}```size is optional.
put it anywhere you want, and that is that.
hexed briar
if you want to use another element (acts as child element) in button, you can do that too.
"your_button@common_buttons.light_content_button": {
"$button_content": "<your element here">
"$pressed_button_name": "<screen function>"
}``` ( note here that `$button_text` does not work here because that *is not text button* )screen functions is usually what buttons needed. everytime you click button, it'll lead you to another screen with according to it's screen names.
Those are hardcoded on some screens, so don't expect to use screen functions from another screen and expecting it to work
worn oasis
so if i wanted to make a custom screen for information about the pack and connect the button to it, how would i use screen functions to it?
or can i not use a custom popup screen function?
hexed briar
those are hardcoded, which essentially you can't create your own screen. ( the same logic to "you can't add new things to json-ui, but you can only modify them" )
worn oasis
like i want a button on the title screen that opens a scrolling panel with information about the pack like credits and updates
wow thats wack
hexed briar
you can modify the windows 10 trial screen thing where it was supposed to show if you click that button I suppose
even though that trial screen only happens in trial version, but that is bedrock leftovers.
you can still use that screen in normal version
worn oasis
yeah free screen to turn into whatever
hexed briar
that why people modify trial screen.
the uh, music+ and another JSON-UI packs with "about" based on that
worn oasis
i dont think ive ever seen the trial screen lmaoo
hexed briar
It's that screen.
worn oasis
so i just change the button and screen for the trial version to open a prompt
hexed briar
yeah, but that was actual screen UI.
not a prompt.
nor dialog.
they made to look like a prompt for some reasons
probably mojang lazy to create actual prompt instead of creating another screen
worn oasis
they made a seperate screen to act as a prompt?
hexed briar
yeah.
hexed briar
yeah that was my thought.
worn oasis
Mojang im very disapointed
hexed briar
it's weird to see mojang being lazy at json-ui
worn oasis
no wonder the UI sucks ass lmao
hexed briar
that's why people use that screen for theirs about screen or basically a whole new screen for information thing
worn oasis
by far my least favorite feature of bedrock
hexed briar
although i don't implement that on any my UI projects so nope, you'll won't see trial screen in there
I don't even know if trial version can use global resource packs
worn oasis
now that i know the extra screen is there i can use that. Ill have to find the code for it and fix it up but sounds doable at my current level of knowledge
i can just remove the ignored element and bindings from it to make it always show the button to open the screen
hexed briar
I could find that screen ID for you since it's right there in start_screen, the actual trial screen is that file. win10_trial_conversion_screen.json
worn oasis
bypassing the trial version shit
surreal arch
whats a simple explanation for JSON ui and scirpt api, and whats best to learn for a faction server owner
hexed briar
simplest explanation for JSON-UI is
you don't.
surreal arch
okay, what abut scripting?
worn oasis
Script API is mor mods, datapakcs, addons. JSON UI is just base minecraft stuff. Script API does most of the work i think
surreal arch
so can i make like a chest gui with scripting?
hexed briar
scripting-api could do anything expect UI modifying related stuff.
hexed briar
so can i make like a chest gui with scripting?
yeah, you can.
surreal arch
would that be difficult to learn?
hexed briar
you can make stuff ranged from database to everything honestly
worn oasis
so Script API can create UI Elemnets but not edit existing UI Elements?
hexed briar
so Script API can create UI Elemnets but not edit existing UI Elements?
yeah.
surreal arch
so, i wouldnt be able to make chest gui since thats already a ui
hexed briar
Json-UI is client-side, not server-side. therefore no, it's can't edit.
worn oasis
Dll use ScriptAPI if you're server owner
surreal arch
so i would be able to do like warps and teleports with a chest gui
worn oasis
Yes.
hexed briar
so, i wouldnt be able to make chest gui since thats already a ui
you can do anything you want
surreal arch
so if i click one thing in the chest it does a series of commands
worn oasis
anything.
surreal arch
so how would i start doing this stuff during my freetime?
hexed briar
#1067535382285135923 there.
surreal arch
okay, thankyou
hexed briar
script-api has ton of documents you can learn, and also it's based in JavaScript/typescript
so go crazy with it I suppose
surreal arch
so i would have to learn coding first
hexed briar
yeah.
surreal arch
damnit dude
hexed briar
since it's literally program language
worn oasis
surreal arch
yeah, thats probably going to take months right?
hexed briar
kinda like you "modding" the game
hexed briar
yeah, thats probably going to take months right?
as long you know the basic of javascript/typescript, you don't have to learn the whole javascript thing.
worn oasis
@surreal arch there is some docs to help you learn. If you are actually trying to learn it, it wont take very long to get decent at it
hexed briar
since script-api is heavily relies in mojang's own minecraft API, therefore you shouldn't see any complex JavaScript there
worn oasis
im a JS main i worked on some mobile apps in my college days
surreal arch
alright, so is there a way to find someone that already knows it and can make a chest gui
worn oasis
Script API is much more widely used so there is a good chance one exists
surreal arch
ive tried searching lmfao
surreal arch
ohh alright, yeah every server that has one their realm owner always says "no im not telling you how i got it"
hexed briar
you should look every bedrock's changelog if it's out since you can see which script-api stuff updated
worn oasis
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tymVqC1Yn5I kinda old but the basic idea is there
hexed briar
so you can fix old stuff

surreal arch

worn oasis
@hexed briar anything on the anchoring issue?
worn oasis
umm my pack crashes when i open the global resources settings tab
no error it just crashes.
the pack isnt even loaded yet
i haven't touched anything that would break it. Im starting on changing the trial upsell screen into my pack info page.
my manifest had a grammar error...
so it crashed getting the information bc it was broken.
worn oasis
what screen is this?
its not the trial upsell screen maybe im using the wrong button
there is no other button that launches editions but i dont see the screen for it.
worn oasis
thoughts?
i cant find the right screen to edit for the info button, but it loads a screen so i should be able to change it somehow.

Anyone able to help with this #1100449350280298639 message
fiery yoke
is it possible to make something like this:
?
(yep am a pocketmine plugin dev and want to recreate a mc java mod :,) )
hexed briar
not possible really.
with 21 custom slots? nope.
although you could, there is few alternative I suppose
- custom crafting table has 9 slots maximum and only 1 output slot, you'll have to keep that at limit.
- use chest as for that. since you're working on pocketmine plugin and stuff, something like that is possible for you. with 27 slots available.
although learn json-ui first before doing it because im not doing that for you
grim wagon
ya, but good luck bc json-ui is pain
limber quartzBOT
wispy cipher
- custom crafting table has 9 slots maximum and only 1 output slot, you'll have ...
you can have up to 54 slots if you use a chest gui
and its pretty easy to do with pocketmine
hexed briar
you can have up to 54 slots if you use a chest gui
that was standard chest I said. not double chest
wispy cipher
just the json ui part is gonna be pain
wispy cipher
that was standard chest I said. not double chest
ye but u can use a simulated double chest just fine
if you need more slots
hexed briar
honestly no one gonna need 54 slots for custom crafting table
wispy cipher

stuff like this exists
hexed briar
what are you gonna craft with this thing
wispy cipher
tho even a double chest wouldnt be enough for that
hexed briar
81 slots + 1 slot as output
at this point you gonna get custom entity because that allows you to go beyond than that
at the same time, why.
wispy cipher
at this point you gonna get custom entity because that allows you to go beyond t...
i dont think it does
54 is the max
hexed briar
custom entity (inventory/donkey components) allows you to use any slots values you want. hence, that's why there is addons that makes a small chest having more than 54 slots and more
- with JSON-UI to display more slots.
wispy cipher
oh?
hexed briar
you don't expect bedrock to have dynamic chest slots like java has.
yeah that's how people did it
more slots with json-ui to properly display them slots and there you have it.
you can't do the same to regular vanilla chests.
even though you can add them in chest but you can't interact them, same goes to inventory.
that what those custom entity with inventory components for.
sometimes things like that intriguing me. json-ui has more complex, dynamic and more customizable than java has. but java somehow has dynamic chest slots whenever the chest slots has 34 or 45 slots while bedrock that doesn't have.
wispy cipher

red wagon
the circles are likely the hardest
unless you are lazy and stretch an actual circle texture to fit
dev version is actually super useful with asserts, it gives way better insight into what is broken
I am not under NDA and it is a leaked version so i should be allowed (legally) to show that screenshot here
hexed briar
hexed briar
idk if such a thing is posible :,)
jesus christ absolutely no.
the only you get from this is just buttons, informations and just it.
animated animations, circle and a thing where you zoom is definitely too difficult and time consuming to implement.
actually, json-ui still doesn't have mouse element control (only hud_screen can be used) so zooming is straight up impossible.
red wagon

wispy cipher

hmmmm
hexed briar
yeah uh, don't share dev screenshot that often.
you don't want to get involved the same situation where mojang going rampage dmca'in everyone who is involves the leaked builds, and little reminder that mojang employee are in this server.
I'm not even sure if that is allowed or not, for moderation sakes. don't.
hexed briar
I'd rather not touch anything related to that after seeing some youtuber who showcase the leaked builds and mojang going haywire at striking everyone who uploaded it
red wagon
but hey mojang also deletes random minecraft related videos with incorrect DMCAs so screw them
hexed briar
atleast they're not nintendo.
red wagon
they are not much different from each other tbh
especially when it comes to management and as of recent, legal things
hexed briar
very recently nintendo striking some YouTubers who supposedly modding their game like and also includes non-modded videos.
that, happens.
red wagon
yeah uh, don't share dev screenshot that often.
i am not too worried actually, in the end they can just kindly ask the mods to remove the screenshots, and it won't do much harm
red wagon

smells like marketplace thing to me
red wagon
hexed briar
also this
red wagon
TLDR its most likely a flaw in the automated system, yet people are badly influenced by false strikes coming from nordic smol indie game dev studio
hexed briar
yeah I suppose
anyways, just saying. be cautious with it because of course, they're here. I'm not sure what are they gonna do, that could lead to potentially bad or worse, I don't know. but be careful though.
I uh, gonna continue my work. see you I suppose.
red wagon
what i am a bit concerned about is mojang trying to take down this discord in response to the leaks
hexed briar
well they won't, they're bond to it.
they're also taking feedback from script-api developers, update and etc
and #old-editor too.
so no, it's unlikely for them to take this discord server down.
afaik recently after #old-editor is out, more mojang employee's joined.
they uh, might ask mods to delete those leaks and potentially mute/kick you.
who knows.
red wagon
Tbh I'd gladly sign an NDA to get my hands on dev clients, I've been in contact with some Mojang guys (mostly third-party server development things on slack) for a while but our channel there is pretty much dead nowadays
Especially since tommo left 💀
Reaching out to the legal team just is pain, but understandable with this many people in the community
hexed briar
you might have to be marketplace partners anyhow, depends I suppose. some people got that thing and signed NDA to it. that was your best bet I guess. those are rumors though.
me, myself are not marketplace partner so therefore I can't confirm that.
red wagon
💀 been waiting for 4 years (i think) on the application already and even tried getting some attention to it via some other marketplace guys i know but yeah things go slow
hexed briar
I'm pretty sure there was some people around here who are marketplace partner has that thing.
red wagon
there is also the funny opposite where some marketplace partners i know didnt get it
i guess the easiest way is to join an existing team
hexed briar
yeah, that was a luck I suppose.
there might be a long process of asking mojang/xbox studio for that thing, who knows.

is it weird that some of my subpacks use the changes. Like half of the themes work with the new ui code the others dont.

the image doesnt show up, im just messing around with this empty screen to learn stuff but why is the image not showing here?
its the same resolution as my previous icon. so it should render the 64x64 image.
