It's not VSC but it does have mild plugin support

wooden sluice
#

its possible to code your dev packs and reload like you would on pc on mobile

west dawn
#

Surely its enough to atleast accept the json shema file

com.mojang is read-only

#

hm i have seen people do so

west dawn
#

If you do goof with your ohone you can access it

patent bramble
#

I think it was android 13 that said no

west dawn
#

waveplayz is also a phone guy and he has a complicated but efficient setup. I think he made a post on here somewhere that could help you get something set up

patent bramble
west dawn
#

To your json ui file

#

In the best case you would have some form of auto completions

wooden sluice
patent bramble
#

What am I supposed to be seeing?

west dawn
#

Autocomletions in the best case

patent bramble
#

I think I'm genuinely seeing everything but Json UI somehow

anyone know if %.(x)s kinda breaks with emojis/glyphs? Im trying to grab first 10 characters, which works fine with normal string, but breaks when I use a glyph, it just picks its own length to use?

patent bramble
west dawn
#

Ok then ig your ide just doesn't do that

patent bramble
#

I would use vsc but yk

#

west dawn
#

Maybe you have to supply the schema in a setting somewhere

If my PC had wifi rn this would probably be like 10x easier but I cannot afford to buy the adaptor rn

west dawn
#

#

Just the charger

patent bramble
#

Iirc the charger doesn't fit

#

and it's too short

night holly
patent bramble
#

I promise I'm not trying to be awkward

wooden sluice
#

might have to make it smaller then

patent bramble
#

At the end of the day idk if it would even be worth it

#

Ive poured so much time into trying to get better at this that I don't even know if I'd be satisfied once I'm done with it anymore

#

The main "hype" died years ago but it's still something that it would be nice to create

night holly
#

ty tho lol

Gimme a sec and I will show you some code

patent bramble
# weak cape Here ^^

I don't know how they've managed it but they've made it even harder to understand

#

Im just never using UI

#

Idc how much I want my pack to exist. Id much rather learn to write in fluid enchantment table

west dawn
#

The technology behind ore ui is browser based yes. But it was a mistake to think that mojang would ever allow us raw access to that

#

I saw that comming already a while ago

#

The only way this turns out well is if the json files will only be used to reference element content created in jsx

# west dawn The technology behind ore ui is browser based yes. But it was a mistake to think...

Man I was so excited about Ore UI. Back then I wanted to create a JSON UI design program but dropped it since I thought "oh well, ore ui is announced, it'd surely make the tool obsolete anyway and provide a much more feature rich experience". All Ore UI actually has been so far is a big disappointment in every possible way.

  • the ui isnt faster than json ui and has more input lag
  • it lacks innovation and feels plain
  • its not customizable like it was thought to be
  • its been ages since its announced and its still not done, not even closely
  • it doesnt give creators opportunity to express more freedom in their minigames through advanced UI elements
#

They should've just improved json ui at the end of the day

#

Or build on top of the existing features to create a new language making it easier to create and manage uis..

#

wake up people JSON-UI got a new feature on the latest preview... somehow.

image-5.png
#

so i guess they're not deprecated anymore? idk.

weak cape
#

lol

hexed briar
#

me either sob

#

i guess in a nutshell another way to fetch element bindings from different places or something.

manic dragon
hexed briar
#

No idea.

manic dragon
#

I've fetched data from ancestors before, using only source_control_name

#

They won't give any more information on this ig

hexed briar
#

yeah that's kinda how it is.

#

though they keep doing JSON-UI changes and now there's this new stuff

#

it could be marketplace partners/studios demands or something.

#

The %.<number>s "crash" bugfix thing was requested by noxcrew apparently.

hello, i'm trying to display a progress bar on my UI extracting a number between 0 and 100 from an item's name (#hover_text) but i can't clip it
i already did this with a form button (#form_button_text) and didn't have this issue, and i'm sure it's not an issue related to $bar_collection_name or a size problem because when i remove clip_direction, the full bar displays correctly

here is my code and an preview in-game

"bar": {
    "collection_index": "$bar_collection_index",
    "type": "image",
    "texture": "textures/custom/ui/white_divider",
    "size": [
        "100%",
        50
    ],
    "layer": 3,
    "clip_direction": "down",
    "clip_pixelperfect": false,
    "bindings": [
        {
            "binding_name": "#hover_text",
            "binding_type": "collection",
            "binding_collection_name": "$item_collection_name"
        },
        {
            "binding_type": "view",
            "source_property_name": "(((#hover_text - ('%.6s' * #hover_text)) * 1)",
            "target_property_name": "#progress"
        },
        {
            "binding_type": "view",
            "source_property_name": "((100.0 - #progress) / 100.0)",
            "target_property_name": "#clip_ratio"
        }

        {
            "binding_type": "view",
            "source_property_name": "(($max - #progress) / $max)",
            "target_property_name": "#clip_ratio"

if you want to modify the appearance of title you'll have to modify hud_title_text element in hud_screen.json

manic dragon
pulsar hornet
manic dragon
#

use another factory with the current title factory, the other factory will have your modified style and the content will be hidden based on #hud_title_text_string binding

pulsar hornet
#

i only know how to edit actionbar becouse you use $actionbar_text in variables and you edit the parameters, but now i need to do the same thing but for title

manic dragon
#

for title you just do it with #hud_title_text_string

"bindings": [
  {
    "binding_name": "#hud_title_text_string",
    "binding_name_override": "#title_text",
    "binding_type": "global"
  },
  {
    "binding_type": "view",
    "source_property_name": "(#title_text = 'something')",
    "target_property_name": "#visible"
  }
]

manic dragon
#

yup. btw it's not a variable, it's a type of binding that allows you to do operations or other bindings/properties

/title @s title health:50,100

Why it isn't work??

manic dragon
#

"(not (#title_text - 'flag_1' = #title_text))", this will be true if the title contains the word flag_1 and you can add multiple words like this
"(not (#title_text - 'flag_1' - 'flag_2' - 'flag_3' = #title_text))"

try it this way

neat sequoia
manic dragon
#

use source_control_name properly, I don't know what properties those controls have

neat sequoia
#

#

i fix a lot errors on code, but the bar still not clipping

/title @s title health:25,100

i've picked of examples in your Animated Template Bar

image.png
manic dragon
# neat sequoia wdym

source_control_name lets you access the properties/bindings inside a control
for example, in the 2nd image, preserved_title panel has these #preserved_text, #value, #max_value etc.
so use a proper value for source_control_name

manic dragon
neat sequoia
manic dragon
#

convert those numbers to float by multiplying 1.0

#

and then try

neat sequoia
#

okk

neat sequoia
#

now the bar disappear when i type the command

manic dragon
#

i'm confused myself, can't say why it isn't working
i didn't use clip_ratio for the animated bar but it should've worked

neat sequoia
#

😭

neat sequoia
manic dragon
#

nope when you remove $update_string only 50 remains, the values after that is gone

what was your completed code here?

that value is got from the next binding object

How do I make it so when I select a toggle, all the other toggles in the same group are set to the same state?

manic dragon
#

Set $radio_toggle_group: true for those toggles

#

And assign appropriate index for $toggle_group_forced_index

wooden sluice
#

there is also a pressed button alpha property i think

#

you can do the same with that without using the state, instead it would go in your light_text_button

hollow needle
manic dragon
#

No

hollow needle
#

I examined that emoji panel and I do not get how they modify the text from the chat

manic dragon
#

That actually has nothing to do with the button

#

There's a text box inside that button. That text box is actually doing the trick

hollow needle
#

Wait, I think I have an idea why

#

Is it because the edit_box has the same text_box_name as the chat edit_box?

#

So the text_control from the dummy edit_box modifies both

manic dragon
#

The chat text box and the one inside that button has same text_box_name
So when you click on the button, the text box gets clicked and that sets value of the chat text box

manic dragon

I'm gonna try this

Or you can use player.json and paperdoll

does anyone know if it is possible to leave a form with just the buttons? I mean without the frame and without a dark background, just buttons?

manic dragon
#

I haven't messed with this other than using it for chat

hollow needle
#

And looks like its doing it the opposite way

#

If I modify the main edit box it adds that text to all the buttons with the dummy one

manic dragon
#

I haven't noticed it earlier but why don't you have any button mappings in the dummy text box

#

That's important for it to work

hollow needle
#

The message was too long

#

But they are there

manic dragon
hollow needle
manic dragon
#

It's modifying the text_control because you're using the value of your actual text box in it
But why is it not modifying the actual text box? That I don't know
Could be that it only works for hardcoded ones like chat, but I'm not sure

hollow needle
#

Even if its not for display

#

I'm trying to make it so you have to press the buttons in an specific order for another element to appear

#

And that order is random

manic dragon
manic dragon
hollow needle
manic dragon
#

Do something like this-
Multiply the first toggle state with 1 the next with 10 and next with 100 and so on
So each toggle combination will produce a unique number (binary string but a number)

manic dragon
hollow needle
#

And how do I use that result in the binding?

#

What should I compare it to?

manic dragon
#

How did you plan to display in the first place? You have to compare to something to see if the combination is valid or not

hollow needle
#

I was going to compare the #form_body_text to the current modified text, and once it was almost complete, the last button would turn into an actual button that closes the form

manic dragon
#

That seems doable to me

#

Just how I mentioned
It can be done that way

strange snow
#

as I am trying to do this within a server form

#

What is it called when you want to only modify a certain part of a JSON UI field that your extending, like using the / to access it?

#

like hud_title_text/title_frame/title_background

rustic storm
#

Am i doing this correctly? im creating a ui thatle replace the title that starts with ws. then a value for a cd bar but when the title ws.80 runs the ui dosent replace it

umm, is there any way to make some items has its own hover text? like in the creative inventory or in the normal inventory, like the hover texture will have a different texture, and the item item will have a subtext like Protection: 11.6 under the item name

#

like without using setLore or anything related to renaming the item or Lore, just pure jsonUi and texts.

Because everyone else took the time to learn it

I should go back to making 2 pixel changes to item textures and calling it a good pack

I'm tryna cross reference a pack I downloaded online to the wiki and like half the stuff isn't even on there ...
@left yew
How do people learn this when half the resources are hidden behind bad search filters?

left yew
#

I genuinely dont know what answer u want from me 😭🙏

I learnt like two-three years ago and there was hardly anything then.

There's WAY more resources now.

Like just look through channels and look through the official json files and reverse it all. Trace it all back or something

I'm not sure about that
Try using bindings like this

{
  "binding_type": "view",
  "source_property_name": "#is_enabled",
  "target_property_name": "#toggle_state"
}

This has to be inside the toggle (type: toggle; not its ancestors)
And I can't guarantee if it'll work

gray shale
#

Yeah that didnt work

#

nvm, $is_enabled is propagated to children by default it turns out

manic dragon

Yeah variables are accessible from children

Hello ,does anyone know what other image formats are supported by the UI apart from png and jpg.

#

It would be cool if we could use something like webP for very small file size and good quality

#

I'm thinking of making UI animations but they are going to be expensive or low quality unless I can do this

burnt osprey
oak verge
#

Tho it is easier to just change the npc model

burnt osprey
oak verge
#

You can change the entity model depending on entity property using render control

tropic tangle
#

Would you not have to resend the form whenever they select another Pokémon anyways?

#

Well e.g for every button you'd trigger another UI with specified entity id

Depends on the implementation

I have several questions, is it true that JSON UI will be deprecated in the near future? Would that mean I should stop coding using JSON UI until Ore UI officially comes out? Just want to make sure so I don't work on something that'll break.

# vernal storm Definitely did

There don't seem to be any problems, are you 100% sure that the path in _ui_defs.json is correct? Did you try reopening the game?
@base not found or type not specified means You don't have the file defined in ui_defs, so it can't find it, or the type isn't defined, but from what I can see, it is defined.

i had a UI question

so with my addon i have positioned the action bar to be in the bottom right for the mana display

however, of course, this means all action bar text is in the bottom right...

Is it possible to make it so that only text that leads with certain characters (Eg, only text that starts with 'MANA') would be in the bottom right, and anything else would be normal?

Definitely possible I think that's what a lot of servers do for their UI

because it was also posted in script api thing

manic dragon
#

Oh I see

#

But I've never seen any server forcefully downloading packs 🤔

weary wind
#

Remove the acceptance screen and go to the downloads packs screen instantly

#

I already tried to modify how the server sends the packages and how the client responds but I can’t get it, they just skip all the screens and that’s it but it doesn’t do that and I think it’s because the official servers have a special flag in the ResourcePackInfo or Stack

well they are also just partnered with mojang so its some special feature they have access to that consumers cant access

Use PocketMine-MP for the experiment

Vanilla drop-down bindings are screen specific. So their binding will be invalid if used in other screens

actually it just doesnt work at all??

#

anchored_offset_value_x works fine

#

nevermind y works

#

bro WHATTT

#

the first one works find but the 2nd is cooked

{
    "binding_type": "view",
    "source_property_name": "(((#text * '%.3s') - '|') * 1 )",
    "target_property_name": "#anchored_offset_value_x"

    "source_property_name": "(((#text - (#text * '%.3s')) - '|') * 1)",
    "target_property_name": "#anchored_offset_value_y"
}``` why

#

so

#

001 is fine for the first one

#

since it gets the first 3

#

as soon as i add an other numbers after it breaks

what's the value of #text

oh i meant what's the value of #text like what are you passing from the script

like

3||2||

bruh

#

i’m on my phone rn

#

i might just be too tired i’ve been up for 18 hours

you should try adding something in front of the numbers like :3||:2||

{
  "binding_type": "view",
  "source_property_name": "(((#text * '%.4s') - ':') * 1 )",
  "target_property_name": "#anchored_offset_value_x"
},
{
  "binding_type": "view",
  "source_property_name": "(((#text - (#text * '%.4s')) - ':') * 1)",
  "target_property_name": "#anchored_offset_value_y"
}

i think its cuz You have #text * '%.4s' and should be '%.4s' * #text ig?

Anyone managed to force show the subtitles? Or is the code not implemented too?
I looked into it a bit, there is a factory that shows subtitle elements like the chat in the right down corner, but there is no binding that controls it visibility depending on a toggle

chilly yacht
#

now i have a new issue

#

if i want smaller incriments and movements in the offset i have to divide it by 10 or 100 correct?

{
    "binding_type": "view",
    "source_property_name": "((('%.6s' * #text) - '|') * 1)",
    "target_property_name": "#offset_x"
},
{
    "binding_type": "view",
    "source_property_name": "(#offset_x / 10)",
    "target_property_name": "#anchored_offset_value_x"
},
{
    "binding_type": "view",
    "source_property_name": "(((#text - ('%.6s' * #text )) - '|') * 1)",
    "target_property_name": "#offset_y"
},
{
    "binding_type": "view",
    "source_property_name": "(#offset_y / 10)",
    "target_property_name": "#anchored_offset_value_y"
}``` im doing that here yet the increments are still in multiples of 10
#

so it just converts 1 -> 10, 2 -> 20

#

15 doesnt do anything

I just figured out a way to do this haha, you just have to check with variables if it's visible and increase its size; if it's not, remove the size.

you have to multiply it first by a float ( i think ) and the float has to be a variable

# polar frigate Can we make our own collection? Or it's all hardcoded?

You can create custom collection name but it won't provide any data or smth. However, you can use this collection name to get collection index via #collection_index binding

As for the #collection_length binding, you can use it on collection panels and stack panels to generate controls using factory for example

polar frigate
manic dragon
#

It's not boolean. So it can be any positive number. For example if you set it to 5 the factory will generate 5 controls

polar frigate
#

Ah we can control it? Can you gimme an example?

I've tried playing with it, sum it, subtract it, the panel just gone bao_ext_toldyouso

To make any changes to the progress you need to send the appropriate title.
What you're asking is basically on the script side. Ig you can use the playerSpawn after event and send a title to fill the bar

Idk if this is even possible, but is there any way to define the offset of a server_form button using scripts?

The same thing that happens in this video is happening to me — is there a way to fix it?

Can someone help me...i want to make a custom button texture that doesn't change the original Minecraft texture, example the settings menu i want to change the button texture but i dont want to change the original mc texture, i assume that i will need to make a code, like for the custom button and the settings menu on common_button or smth like that...

It would be a great help if you know something about it even a little please tell me it would be a good help to me, sorry if you didn't gets my grammar im not good at English sorry...

Oh also does anyone know what's the use of factory_variables

placid geode
#

you can either create your own factory (but you will lose #form_text) or use grids (you will need to use source_control_name to access #form_text)

placid geode
manic dragon
placid geode
#

honestly idk how actualy works, just use it if you have something like this ```json
"$blablabla": 67,
"factory": {
"type": "stack_panel",
"factory": {...}
}

// FATAL ERROR OH NO! cannot find variable blablabla in ancestor tree like why you didnt know

placid geode

that server_form_factory

manic dragon
# placid geode use a custom factory without using default one

I'm not using the default one

wait is #title_text available outside the factory?

placid geode
#

yeah

manic dragon
#

WHAT

placid geode
#

just #form_text is inside

#

so you will not be able to use it anymore

manic dragon
placid geode
#

yup

manic dragon
#

oh also thanks for the factory with control_ids, it helps a lot I used it in other places before (saw it from a msg here some time ago)

placid geode
#

yes, very useful and I haven't stopped using it since I discovered how to use it when #form_button_contents was added xd

manic dragon
placid geode
#

almost 6 months ago lol

manic dragon
#

yeah i saw it then, i was just talking about the fact that #title_text is available outside the default factory. I was doing everything inside of it 😭

placid geode
#

OHH yeah xd

#

i think #submit_button_text it's also outside the factory

#

so you can use it as your #form_text for modal forms

manic dragon
#

ohh cool, thanks!

also $locked_button_texture 🤓☝️

oh right xd

and $border_visible: false

cuz yea, that black border is separate from the button texture

and that doesn't work for some buttons like light_content_button

I can't understand how layering works in json ui (without to have determine "layer")
Sometimes it's above all element, sometimes it's in order, is there any tiering? Or just random?

Unfortunately

placid geode
polar frigate
# placid geode relative to the parent ```json { "o1": { "controls": [ {...

What if i'm not defining any "layer" specifications to the elements?
And all of them in the same controls, same parent,
Which one is above the other?

 "parent": {
  "controls": [
   {
    "child1": {
     //<as far as i know all child will be above the parent>
    }
   },
   {
    "child2": {}
   },
   {
    "child3": {}
   },
   {
    "child4": {}
   },
   {
    "child5": {}
   }
   ]
 }
}```

Sometimes it's layering perfectly from 1 - 5.

But also sometimes no matter where i place child1, even at the bottom list, it's still above all other child
placid geode
#

just use layers to prevent those 'bugs'

idk why it was named like this. I mostly don't use any of the template toggles

You can't nest these.
Add them separately in the root_panel or somewhere else. Just use them here using source_control_name

Just FYI for people here that 1.21.130 aka probably upcoming new version yearly format — They changed slightly how %.<number>s works, so you might definitely need to update it asap especially those with custom bars as it may crash your game, there's also a case where bindings calculation are also changed due to this. so it probably may not work. So, just update it i guess idk lmao

tl;dr — %.<number>s go brokey, game crashes, update required.

Does anyone know how to make it so that at the beginning of the text titleraw in /title @s actiobar If you write §u§r At the beginning, the background of the action bar will be replaced with my texture.

left yew
hexed briar
#

since invalid value results in a crash for some reason.

#

If it doesn't crash, you may get a value or anything that is not the same as before, just keep that in mind.

#

%.<numbers>s * 1 should be avoided at all costs due to them resetting or straight up ignoring %.<numbers>s.

#

Other than that, some calculations or stuff like the way most detailed experience bar works may require a bindings redo.

manic dragon
#

updating the game with my fingers crossed

broken trail
#

uh nice

#

how to sincerely say fuck them if they wanted to just get rid of this feature

#

or maybe they left some info, why they changed it or just anything

manic dragon
#

probably "optimization"

broken trail
#

uhh

#

so much info right there lol

placid geode
#

so ig we cant convert string to number with * 1

broken trail
#

well if its limited to only this mostly used part then it should work fine

#

however I see its not

broken trail
#

I mean, without proper tools lol

placid geode
#

0 + #text maybe lol

#

Although I also believe it's not necessary, any string that starts with a number is automatically converted to a number

manic dragon
#

i just don't want my things to crash the game ;-;

hexed briar
#

You don't need * 1 at all just for the value conversion.

#

If the bindings detect the number first at the first string character, it will consider that as a value.

I have a ui with a grid of buttons, and I was wondering if it would be possible to set the default cursor location or button for controller when the ui opens?

placid geode
#

maybe with default_focus_precedence: int

hexed briar
#

but yeah i don't think it breaks anything that much, just get rid of * 1 if you can and pray it'll work like normal.

placid geode
#

yup

#

I just hope that ('%' + #somevalue + '.s') still works

hexed briar
#

Also %.<number>s are also 'fixed' in a way that is no longer pins late or early.

manic dragon
#

wdym

hexed briar
#

Apparently it does a thing where doing %.6s from a string may shift that.

#

so from __asdfgh__jkl would be __asdfghj__kl instead.

#

or sometimes maybe __asdfg__hjkl for some reason

#

1.21.130 however, has this fixed.

#

so some stuff might require readjustment.

manic dragon
hexed briar
placid geode
#

But that was because, for example, § counted as two characters, right?

#

(that byte thing)

hexed briar
#

Apparently, not really.

#

It does this even without §.

placid geode
#

well i never experienced that

#

but now §a should be %.2s?

hexed briar
#

so i had no idea what caused this but i had to readjust most of my stuff just to get it working again probably by +1 or -1

hexed briar
#

My stuff that requires alot of complex and experimental stuff now just works with some patches i suppose, including dynamic splitting texts

placid geode
#

By the way, did anyone figure out how to use that ancestor_scope thing?

hexed briar
#

it's like resolved scope thing.

#

instead it is the opposite.

manic dragon
placid geode
#

Afaik, sibling scope looks at the parent and the children (but not the children-children), so what does the other one do?

hexed briar
#

honestly the same thing ngl but you can read parent-parent elements.

placid geode
#

oooh

#

Interesting

hexed briar
#

can't draw myself a graph but

- parent with bindings
    - another parent
        - also another parent
             - children with ancestor scope and fetch bindings from the first parent```
manic dragon
placid geode
#

yesyes was thinking about that too

hexed briar
placid geode
#

maybe its useful if youre working with collections

hexed briar
#

unless they patched this out and made ancestor scope as a replacement.

placid geode
#

unexpected property 'resolve_sibling_scope' ☠️

hexed briar
#

i don't really use resolve scope that much due to them causing some issues that i think it's worth not using it.

manic dragon
#

source_control_name normally searches all controls but ig using ancestor_scope makes it more efficient to get ancestor proprties(?)

placid geode
#

yep

hexed briar
#

yeah, atleast it should be.

#

Just FYI mojang does not add new UI property or changes unless a certain studio requested them to.

placid geode
#

noxcrew with that crash issue with %.s

#

But I don't see any studio saying hey limit string multiplication to %.s cuz i relly need it lol I'm really smart

hexed briar
#

probably not but eh it is odd really.

placid geode
#

Instead of removing it, Mojang should have made it work like in Python

hexed briar
#

%.<numbers>s that somehow crashing did get fixed by noxcrew requesting mojang to.

placid geode
#

hi * 3 = hihihi

hexed briar
placid geode
#

XD

#

It happened to me, but honestly I never knew why

hexed briar
#

I never had it.

placid geode
#

1 big update = 1 small change to JSON ui

manic dragon
#

2 small changes 🤓

#

And some bug fixes I think

placid geode
#

and more bugs to fix 🥳

manic dragon
#

XD

hexed briar
#

JSON-UI always has hidden changes or bug fixes.

#

They don't list it up on changelog at all really.

#

I'm not surprised since this isn't the first time they've done this.

#

Since 1.19.20 where they changed a certain JSON-UI stuff that breaks the way variable and bindings work on ignored property and text property.

#

This results ALL UI stuff being broken at that time including mine.

#

the only workaround that me and some people found here were put another variable, slam a variable/bindings you want to use, and put that variable on it. or alternatively you can create another elements but leave the variable you want to use on the parent element.

manic dragon
#

Ignored property can't use any variables in the same scope. But it can use variables from ancestors

hexed briar
#

Yeah that's a thing — It used to.

#

pre-1.19.20 ignore property basically works like what would you expect, it supports operators along with it.

#

and is also a common way to properly remove elements when needed, unlike visible property that is.

#

out of nowhere, they changed it. mention absolutely nothing, not even once on changelog

#

All people's UI breaks, we had to spend half an hour or probably more about how to fix it.

manic dragon
#

I think there's also a thing that you can't use more than one variable from the same scope inside another variable. It gives me error

Why did it stop working?

#

got it to work

oak verge
#

why can't we use anything different than #texture in here?
changing it to any different name break it

also you don't need "texture": "#texture"

you can safely remove it

In a server form, is there any way to track which button was last clicked and keep it visually selected without closing/reopening the form?
For example, I have 4 move slots and want to:

  1. Click on a move → show a red selection border on that move
  2. Update a stats panel at the bottom
  3. Do this WITHOUT the form closing and reopening
    Or, do all state changes require the form to be rebuilt?

nevermind, the game refused to reload everything when /reload all

instead, i need to unload and reload a (dummy) pack

Actually this looks like a general cache failure.

#

My texture doesn't reload and some of my script stuff just doesn't reload without relaunch the game.

#

even with /reload all it just don't for some reason even though it supposed to.

placid geode
#

reload all is now like reloadAll() { return } thats why is now 'faster' 😂

did anyone chest ui broke after new update?

hazy ice
#

sseems like aux id items are missing with the new update. any fix?

manic dragon
#

It probably has something to do with the change about %.ns

oak verge
#

i don't think i used string multiplication outside for %.ns stuff in my #1350130244111040593 but multi tab ui might be dead

clever vapor
oak verge
#

yeah, i know
my message wasn't meant as a reply

#

btw, there is no way to turn string to number now?

Does anyone know how to make it so that at the beginning of the text titleraw in /title @s actiobar If you write §u§r At the beginning, the background of the action bar will be replaced with my texture.

yeah if you try to do any operations on it

oak verge

alright, thanks

manic dragon

removing : from :20:10 however will give 2010

oak verge
#

yeah, i get it

so stuff like "(#var *1 )" still work? where var is 20, or is *1 not needed?

manic dragon
#

if #var is a numerical string you will need * 1

oak verge
#

this work? (chest ui)

manic dragon
#

it should work, if it doesn't you can try 1 * #form_button_texture

oak verge
#

alright, haven't tested anything yet
but someone said that chest ui broke, so i am trying to understand where it may have

#

these are all the places where * is used

It doesn't seem anything's wrong here. But I haven't tested properly which things still work and which things don't

Alright guys so i made a behavior pack whos only job is to alter the loot pool of 1 structure addon by including loot added by another addon. until the Mounts and Mayhem update it worked absolutely fine but now the loot refuses to appear.

Now I tried opening the Structure Addon and simply replacing the files inside with the Loot tables I changed and it works perfect. but it's not what I want. I need it to be a seperate Behavior Pack that works like a patch between 2 addons.

The only files i have for the behavior pack are the Manifest and the loot tables and as I know the loot tables work it must be the Manifest right?

is it just me, or does any custom ui freeze the game now?

Here's the full bindings, it used to work before the update.

manic dragon
#

it's really inefficient what you're doing here

#

like the loops here

upbeat frigate
#

how do u do it? i'm new to json ui 😅

manic dragon
#

you should combine them in fewer binding objects

# 
"bindings": [
  {
    "binding_name": "#hover_text",
    "binding_type": "collection",
    "binding_collection_name": "$item_collection_name"
  },
  {
    "binding_type": "view",
    "source_property_name": "(#hover_text - '  ' - '§r§f§r§f§r' - '- Default (Unpressed)' - 'Locked' - '[Detachment]')",
    "target_property_name": "#final_text"
  },
  {
    "binding_type": "view",
    "source_property_name": "(('%.30s' * #final_text) - '- Toggled' - '- Unobtainable' - '§5§o' - '- Disabled' - '§f' - 'Has Custom Properties')",
    "target_property_name": "#detail_text"
  }
]
upbeat frigate
#

ah got it, i was trying to make it into 1 binding, but i found it confusing with many open/close braces 😅

upbeat frigate
manic dragon
#

np

upbeat frigate
#

although still have issues with the string multiplication, can i see ur example for using string multiplication?

#

like using property_bag

manic dragon
# 
"label": {
  "type": "label",
  "text": "#text",
  "property_bag": {
    "#string": "This is a string containing some words"
  },
  "bindings": [
    {
      "binding_type": "view",
      "source_property_name": "('%.27s' * #string)",
      "target_property_name": "#text"
    },
    {
      "binding_type": "view",
      "source_property_name": "(('%.27s' * #string) - ' containing')",
      "target_property_name": "#text1"
    }
  ]
}
manic dragon
upbeat frigate
#

i think they did something with character limitation or byte count or something, i can only display this text from an item lore, not sure 100% yet

image.png
#

nvm

#

i'm dumb

upbeat frigate
#

How do you only display the name of an item? Like exluding the lores and stuffs?

upbeat frigate
# manic dragon something like this

Thank you, used this as a reference from mine, i was using "%.ns" after the text like "#text * '%.ns' and somehow it was not workint, after changing the order it worked again, thanks

manic dragon
#

Writing it afterwards did work before ig but I never use it like that

viral oxide
#

Are there any known methods for using a binding as the base of a control
"test@#hover_text": {}

#

I have a significant amount of elements that just get hidden instantly that I dont want the game to have to parse everytime it tries to open my screen, since that takes ages. so I want to try and make an element switch out-able that way it only needs to parse 1 element

manic dragon
viral oxide
#

yea, but is it possible to set a variable based on a binding?
