Entities General

[charred cargo]

Option 1:

• Detect when the player has a tag
• Give them the slow falling effect(since slow falling cancels out fall damage, independent of how fast you actually fall)
• Then use applyKnockback in a script to cancel out the slowed falling speed and make it seem as though you are falling at a normal speed and take no fall damage

Option 2:

• Turn on the game rule that makes fall damage false
• Detect when the player has a tag
• Make a script that calculates for how long an entity has fallen
• Then applyDamage only if the entity/ player does not have the tag

[charred cargo]

I reccomend option 1

[gilded shore]

What? really?

Not even with damage_sensors?

are you dsure?

cuz i can cancel fall damage with damage_sensor

but it cancels it fully

Like even if i dont have the tag it cancels

so i wanna make it only cancel when i have the tag

[charred cargo]

The 2 options i gave you are the only options you have, other than damage sensors

[gilded shore]

i want to use damage_sensors

cuz none of those options work for me

i just dont know how to make it only work if the player has the tag

[charred cargo]

Yes they will

I've done one before

[gilded shore]

No i mean i dont wanna use those

i dont wanna use feather falling

[charred cargo]

Ok, that makes more sense

[gilded shore]

and i dont wanna calculate to apply damage by myself cuz it wont be the same

[charred cargo]

Use a filter to detect if the player has a tag

In damage sensors

[lost jungle]

Is there a way for an addon to render cosmetics on the player and still allow them to use their bedrock creator skins?

Or is there really no way to do that and players have to use classic skins?
This includes whenever a player is not even using the cosmetic. Just because the addon is running.

[lost jungle]

nevermind, figured it out >:)

It needed the min_engine_version to be 1.8.0
And make sure the animations are in the right order (becuase the error log was specific about that for some reason)

[kind charm]

Yeah theres a #1072983602821861426 post.

[valid comet]

i need a help,.

when i add a geometry and texture in player.entity.json

i don't know why

but all entities are invisible

just added "yeti_boss": ...

[long oriole]

yo, I wonder if I made a custom entity with a block looking and put it inside a real block, will it cover the texture of the real block?

[charred cargo]

Entities change colour to black when their hitbox enters a block
Even if they didn't your entity being the same size as a block would make them z-fight

[charred cargo]

What do you mean "all entities are invisible"

[valid comet]

srry, all the players

[charred cargo]

Ok, that makes a lot more sense

Are you positive that you edited( or made a new) render controller for the player

Because without doing that the game won't render them

[subtle glade]

How to cancel fatal damage on an entity in new versions?

[charred cargo]

Not quite sure if that's possible

[subtle glade]

Before the new update it was possible, but I don't know how to do it now

[charred cargo]

How did you do it

[willow cypress]

How name tag disappear

[tulip dome]

#1371729209696845885 Can anyone help with it

[charred cargo]

A friendly entity cannot attack, at all

[tulip dome]

even by editing its json?

[charred cargo]

You'll have to manually edit the behaviour entity file of every entity to add that feature

[tulip dome]

that’s what I’m doing I want to make villager attack

[wind kite]

Hi guys
I creat the cow tank
Let's goooo🦦

I'm genius

[main cedar]

can i set pitch and volume of a sound in an animation?

[fading elm]

is it possible to modify the players geometry to allow more joints

like split an arm into two pieces to add more flexibility

[charred cargo]

Yes

You'd have to make animations for the new model tho

[fading elm]

i did try this kind of already but animations are tough

[spring root]

why is my entity so much faster when im riding it and moving it around vs not riding and its AI moving it around? i cant find anything that would cause this

[subtle glade]

In the old version I did it like this:

"minecraft:damage_sensor": {
  "triggers": [
    {
      "on_damage": {
        "filters": {
          "all_of": [
            {
              "test": "has_damage",
              "value": "fatal"
            },
            {
              "test": "is_family",
              "subject": "other",
              "value": "player"
            }
          ]
        },
        "deals_damage": false
      }
    }
  ]
}

[stable brook]

hello! i have an entity where he plant seeds ecc how i can play an animation when the entity plant the seeds?

i tried to search for molang, ecc but i don't have found nothing 😦

[charred cargo]

Yh, I'm pretty sure that hasn't changed at all

Have you tried using it, or did you think it had to be done differently?

[charred cargo]

How do they plant seeds?

[stable brook]

minecraft:behavior.harvest_farm_block

[subtle glade]

I've used it before, but it didn't work at all.

[pale mulch]

Is there an entity armor size cap? Ive tried multiple times to have cubes far up in the helmet model yet it doesn't work

[cobalt dirge]

Is there a trick to making NPC Dialogue boxes to work in 1.21? In earlier versions it was sufficient to use /dialogue change ... and set minecraft:npc on my entity but now it doesn't seem to work. If I manually run /dialogue open the dialog appears, so that part works. I even tried to add an on_interact event, but of course run_command is no longer supported in events 😁

[vivid valve]

In tick_world component, is radius means block or chunks

[rain egret]

Dialogs close if you are 64 blocks away from the NPC

Tickingarea It does not solve the problem

[cobalt dirge]

Figured it out; the NPC was within the collision bounds of a block/slab so that was intercepting the interaction. I added an interaction component to the block (which I was gonna do anyway) so now it all works.

[lost jungle]

When you have a mob with a segmented neck and have it look around.
Is there something needed for the model to use its neck to look as well?

Meaning when you have the head looking, would the code need something for the model to also move its neck?

That way, the mob wont just have the head itself moving, but the neck can bend too when looking around.

[charred cargo]

You need a custom animations to make a neck move, since there no mobs with necks, it's just head rotations

[lost jungle]

I see.

Not even the ender dragon?

[charred cargo]

No, sadly

It's not really that hard, tho

You'd just need to make the rotation a fraction of the target rotation

It'd look like this in the animation
In this example, 0.1 is the fraction that the neck is of the entity's rotation
query.target_x_rotation * 0.1

[lost jungle]

ooh, alright. That is nice.
Thanks, man 👍

[charred cargo]

No problem 👍

[rain pilot]

hello i'm making an entity like horse can be rideable how do I make when the mob comes a block he jumps it?

i don't want to add can_power_jump

[bitter fractal]

Hello, I'm using a custom material with "USE_UV_ANIM"

the black spaces are supposed to be transparent, what could I do?

[kind charm]

Which material did you extend from?

[bitter fractal]

custom_animated:entity

It's my first time working with materials :b

[kind charm]

Extend entity_alphatest isntead.

[bitter fractal]

it worked!

tyvm!

I didn't find any documentation for creating materials in the microsoft page

where could I learn more about this?

[kind charm]

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/visuals/materials

[bitter fractal]

I see
Thanks!

[wanton venture]

Can I make animations have sounds?

[kind charm]

Yes.

[wanton venture]

How

[kind charm]

In blockbench.

[wanton venture]

Thanks

[main cedar]

how to make entities not show armor?

[charred cargo]

If you don't need it to render attachables, then you can set
"enable_attachables": false

If you do need it to render attachables, then you might want to make an animation to make armor disappear if it is wearing any

You might want to also look into render controllers as there might (no guarantees) be a way for it to work under the use of one of those

[main cedar]

i do need to.I found the solution tho, it was to remove the equippable component

[rain egret]

Bruh You should have said that you didn't want your entity to have equipment, Not that it cannot be seen :v

[main cedar]

its an entity that holds an item. it needs to show that item. I though that is what equipment was for

[pliant oak]

transient mobs can't be saved with structure blocks

[gaunt harbor]

yo

[feral ore]

hey guys, using entitiy wizard do you guys know if it is possible to make an npc with multiple textures like the vanilla one

with the selection

[lofty citrus]

what's one way to trigger a script when a player interact with an entity?

[main cedar]

Entity interact before event

[lofty citrus]

thanks

why before? why not after?

[main cedar]

depends

do you want to react to an interaction?

or create a new one

[lofty citrus]

what do you mean?

[lofty citrus]

it doesn't trigger the interaction? I just want it to be able to interact and trigger a script

[rain egret]

You did not define the value of has_equipment

[main cedar]

seems overcomplicated

why not just use the script event like i said

[vale mantle]

Can I add a fly component on a range mode, and a walk component on a melee mode?

[lofty citrus]

rightclicking on an entity doesn't work

should I just leave minecraft:interact blank?

[lofty citrus]

oh beforeevents works on all entities

[cursive geyser]

is it possible to render an outline on an entity for a player(s) under specific conditions

not for all players but specific ones

doesn't have to be an outline it can be something else too but it has to be specific to only show for certain clients

im making it for a team system if that helps at all

[vale mantle]

Are piglin melee and range component connected to their animation? Or is it simply that they must hold a weapon or item like a sword?

[cursive geyser]

how do i render translucent textures on entities

why can't i see my custom entity?

[charred cargo]

You made the render controller incorrectly

[cursive geyser]

what part of it do i change

i dont understand this entity stuff bro i only do scripting

💔

but i need to make this first

[charred cargo]

It's all good

[charred cargo]

You know where you put the geometry and the material

[cursive geyser]

yes

[charred cargo]

Your supposed to put the short name of those areas

[cursive geyser]

the shorthands defined in the rp entity file?

so "default" for both

?

[charred cargo]

So instead of geometry.pillar_pink you'd use geometry.default

[charred cargo]

Bingo

[cursive geyser]

why does it need geometry. on the front

[cursive geyser]

what about material

material.default

?

[charred cargo]

Yup

[cursive geyser]

and texture.default?

[charred cargo]

Yes

[cursive geyser]

okk i'll try

nope it still doesn't work

rp/entity/pillar_pink.json:

{
  "format_version": "1.8.0",
  "minecraft:client_entity": {
    "description": {
      "identifier": "ultra:pillar_pink",

      "geometry": {
        "default": "geometry.pillar_pink"
      },
      "animations": {},
      "animation_controllers": [],
      "render_controllers": ["controller.render.pillar_pink"]
    }
  }

      "geometry": "geometry.default",
      "materials": [{ "*": "material.default" }],
      "textures": ["texture.default"]
    }
  }
}

this is the texture file

but i doubt it matters

[charred cargo]

Oh I know what's wrong
You left empty areas in animation controller and animations

[cursive geyser]

but why would that matter

it's not supposed to break it is it

they're just empty , meaning there's no animations meant to be used on the entity

HEY i see it now

nevermind

you were right

thanks

[charred cargo]

Think if it like this
It throws errors to animations acting on the entity
Which means it throws errors to the geometry of the entity
Which means the game breaks the geometry

[charred cargo]

No problem

[cursive geyser]

do u know what the size ratio is from geometry to ingame blocks

cos i want this to be exactly the size of 1 full minecraft block

[charred cargo]

Also yes

Every single pixel is 1/16 of a block

[cursive geyser]

so 16x16x16 would be one block

?

[charred cargo]

Yes

[cursive geyser]

ah yes tyy that works

perfect

i can see it pretty far out too great

this will make my claim system so much better

[charred cargo]

Are you trying to remake the beacon or something?

[cursive geyser]

no

it's for a faction claim system

!f map command is supposed to show pillars (corners of claim) for nearby factions

so you can see where the bounds of other claims go whilst claiming

it tells you like "green: team 1, pink: team 2" and then the pillars of that color on the map correspond to the claim of those factions

ilkll use animations to hide them for other players

[charred cargo]

Oh, interesting

Hope it all goes well

[cursive geyser]

thank you!!

[vale mantle]

Anyone know how I can make an entity fly and attack like a wither? Like, flying in place to shoot stuff

#1376276790984704152

[cursive geyser]

is it possible to query if a player has a tag in render controllers

i tried adding this to my render controllers for players but it doesn't work

{
          "controller.render.player.cape": "query.has_tag('cape')"
        }

[formal veldt]

theres no query for tags.

[cursive geyser]

any workarounds ?

what things can i query for then

[formal veldt]

properties

[cursive geyser]

could i create a property that then matches the value of whether or not a player has that tag

or is that also not possible

[formal veldt]

at that point just use the property.

why use a tag

[cursive geyser]

I need to add it through scripts

[formal veldt]

you can change property values in scripts.

[cursive geyser]

oh okay

do i make the property for player.json in the behavior pack

like a custom component ?

[formal veldt]

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/entities/entity-properties

[cursive geyser]

ahh tyy

how do i query for properties

though

[formal veldt]

query.property('property_name')

[cursive geyser]

tysm !!

[cursive geyser]

do i do it like this
Query: "query.property('ultra:cape') == 'film'"

property:

"ultra:cape": {
        "type": "enum",
        "values": ["none", "film"],
        "default": "film"
      }

and then set the property to either none/film thru scripts

erm

[rain egret]

You need to add "client_sync": true so it can be used in your resource pack

[cursive geyser]

where do i add this

[rain egret]

Within your property

[cursive geyser]

"properties": {
        "ultra:cape": {
          "type": "enum",
          "values": ["none", "film"],
          "default": "film",
          "client_sync": true
        }
      }

Like this?

[rain egret]

Yes

[cursive geyser]

but that won't fix this issue, will it

ill copy it wait

[Molang][error]-minecraft:player.0.aaaaaaaa-7b21-4637-9b63-8ad63622ef01.c0bf77c3-7a3d-416a-ab37-0943aa54e46f | entity/player.entity.json | query.has_property('ultra:cape') == 'film' | Error: query.has_property does not have an actor.

[rain egret]

Ok Everything is correct, so you are probably not updating your addon correctly.

[cursive geyser]

im certain that i am

it did update

[rain egret]

Or there is an error in the syntax of your behavior

[cursive geyser]

earlier it said .property now it says .has_property

[cursive geyser]

what do u want me to show for that

{
          "controller.render.player.cape": "query.has_property('ultra:cape') == 'film'"
        }

this is in render_controllers

for player.entity.json

[rain egret]

I mean behavior, If there is an error, parts of the code probably fail.

[cursive geyser]

this comes up as soon as i join the world

its not because of my behavior packs i don't think

[rain egret]

It's because of the behavior

Make sure the version you use in the behavior format_version is higher than 1.20.80

Your entity and your manifest.json

[cursive geyser]

can it be 1.21.82

[rain egret]

Yes

The newest is better

[cursive geyser]

also is my render controller meant to look like this

{
  "format_version": "1.10.0",
  "render_controllers": {
    "controller.render.player.cape": {
      "geometry": "cape",
      "materials": [{ "default": "cape" }],
      "textures": ["cape"]
    }
  }
}

at first tje material just said ["cape"] but it was giving me a warn for expected object

[cursive geyser]

it did work with ["cape"] too though when I was using this with a condition on the render controller which always evaluates to true

[formal veldt]

not has_property

property

[cursive geyser]

it told me "did you mean .property"

when i used .property

[formal veldt]

what

[cursive geyser]

it gave me that error

in the console

when it said query.property(...)

[formal veldt]

use query.property.

[cursive geyser]

so i switched it to .has_property(...)

[formal veldt]

dont

[cursive geyser]

Okay then

[rain egret]

Hahaha true, I hadn't noticed.

[cursive geyser]

still says the same thing

[Molang][error]-minecraft:player.0.aaaaaaaa-7b21-4637-9b63-8ad63622ef01.c0bf77c3-7a3d-416a-ab37-0943aa54e46f | entity/player.entity.json | query.has_property('ultra:cape') == 'film' | Error: query.has_property does not have an actor.

[formal veldt]

you didnt save.

[cursive geyser]

[Molang][error]-render_controllers/player.render_controllers.json | render_controllers | controller.render.player.cape | materials | default | cape | unrecognized token: cape

[cursive geyser]

yes i did bro

what makes you think i do not make sure that i save before loading

[formal veldt]

it wouldnt say that then.

[cursive geyser]

i didnt change it to .property yet

when i saved

[formal veldt]

why

[cursive geyser]

cus i just didnt

i only changed the format versions

[formal veldt]

then change it...

[cursive geyser]

i did????

[formal veldt]

why are you wondering it says the same thing

[cursive geyser]

i will change it i just had not YET changed it when i saved it last time

[cursive geyser]

cos he told me the issue was the format version

not .has_property(...)

so i only changed up the things i believed were the root of the issue

O wow it works now but

i think i have to respawn for the cape to change if i switch the property value

nope it just doesnt change at all

[formal veldt]

you dont

[cursive geyser]

even if i try to change the value

[formal veldt]

show me the file.

[cursive geyser]

which

[formal veldt]

the render controller.

[cursive geyser]

{
  "format_version": "1.10.0",
  "render_controllers": {
    "controller.render.player.cape": {
      "geometry": "cape",
      "materials": [{ "default": "cape" }],
      "textures": ["cape"]
    }
  }
}

that's the render controller itself, this is the condition

{
          "controller.render.player.cape": "query.property('ultra:cape') == 'film'"
        }

it always shows the cape even if i change the value

o wait

i think my script is the issue

oh yeh my condition was flipped lol

when the property was film i was trying to set it back to film and when it wasnt i would set it to none

[rain egret]

Geometry.cape
Texture.cape
Material.cape

Not just "cape"

[cursive geyser]

amazing

another question , since i want to add support for multiple cape textures, am i meant to make a separate render controller for each cape

like do i add more texture definitions into here:

"textures": {
        "default": "textures/entity/steve",
        "cape": "textures/entity/cape_film"
      },

and then make a render controller for each separate texture and then check for the condition to see if that cape should be rendered for them

[cursive geyser]

ehh i tried doing that but it says my render controllers are invalid

{
  "format_version": "1.10.0",
  "render_controllers": {
    "controller.render.player.cape_film": {
      "geometry": "cape",
      "materials": [{ "default": "cape" }],
      "textures": ["cape_film"]
    },

ah yes yes thx

that works perfect

yes yes

[gaunt harbor]

i got a model i just want someoen to help me add a animation to it

[charred cargo]

Firstly, what is the animation

Secondly, have you seen this guide
https://www.blockbench.net/wiki/guides/bedrock-modeling

[reef oyster]

how do I have a creature grow tails as it gets older? basicly when it spawns in(or is baby) it only has one tail but it gains up to nine tails overtime?

[timber wolf]

Hey guys, based on this simple entity. How can i stop it from taking damage!

@kind charm Any idea! 🙂

[kind charm]

Use damage sensor to prevent damage.

[timber wolf]

Tysm

[dusk knot]

please tell me whats wrong with my player.json its basicually non existent

[cursive geyser]

is there a way to query if player is wearing elytra

[cursive geyser]

in resource packs

[charred cargo]

query.is_item_name_any('slot.armor.chest', 0, 'minecraft:elytra)

This works in behaviour packs too for animations and animation controllers

[cursive geyser]

thankyouu

[charred cargo]

You're welcome

[cursive geyser]

i assume these expressions can be somehow negated, yes?

can i just check query.is_item_name_any('slot.armor.chest', 0, 'minecraft:elytra) != true

to check if they are not wearing elytra

or maybe !query.is_item_name_any('slot.armor.chest', 0, 'minecraft:elytra')?

[charred cargo]

Sorry I was gone but yes you can

[charred cargo]

This is typically the way it is done, but the other also works

[elfin iron]

How does one make an entity rideable? I made a custom invisible entity for something, tried to /ride onto it and game went and said no.

[broken marsh]

it needs the minecraft:rideable component

"minecraft:rideable": {
  "seat_count": 1,
  "family_types": ["player"],
  "interact_text": "action.interact.mount",
  "seats": [
    { "position": [0, 2, 0] }
  ]
}

[wanton venture]

How can I make my mob move through blocks like the vex

[formal veldt]

make it have no collision.

[wanton venture]

But then how can players hit it

[formal veldt]

you can still hit it.

physic's has_collision property does not affect the hitbox.

[wanton venture]

Oh, you meant in physics

I thought you meant remove the collision component

[formal veldt]

that wouldn't work anyway

it'll default it to 1, 1

and 0, 0 wouldnt remove it, you would still be able to hit it last time I checked.

[wanton venture]

Well that works nicely thank you!

[formal veldt]

np

[wanton venture]

How can I do something when a specific animation is played?

[charred cargo]

Wdym

That's a very vague question

[formal veldt]

you can use bp animation controllers, and run commands.

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/animation-controllers/animation-controllers-intro#bp-animation-controllers-1

[wanton venture]

True, I was so sleepy lol

[wanton venture]

I can’t find a way to make it so when X animation happens, X command happens. Is this possible?

All I can seem to do is the other way around; run command and that command starts the animation.

But that makes transitions trash

[formal veldt]

hm

try querying if the animation is over, then use on_exit

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/reference/content/molangreference/examples/molangconcepts/queryfunctions/query_all_animations_finished?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

[charred cargo]

If you can detect the event with scripts, then you could potentially detect if it had happened, and then use something like Date.now to get how long it has been since then and then run the command

But it's just a theory...

[formal veldt]

a game theory

[wanton venture]

But how do I do it with that specific animation?

[formal veldt]

I guess you can't do this.

sorry

[wanton venture]

https://tenor.com/view/andor-cry-ghorman-ghorman-massacre-tears-gif-12029216810534865930

[formal veldt]

why did you need to do this anyway

perhaps there could be a different solution.

[wanton venture]

I have two walk animations; speed should be different in each one. I was thinking on just giving speed when walk2 happens.

[wanton venture]

I think that won’t do neither ):

[formal veldt]

and when does walk2 happen

how does it happen

through an event that sets a property?

[wanton venture]

Random, 50% chance each walk whenever the mob walks

[formal veldt]

you can use the timer component and make it randomize the property value, and use a component group within the entity changing the speed values, in whatever movement component you have. Then in an animation controller, change the walking animation based on the property using query.property

if the timer component is already taken up you can use the timer flag components (there's 3 of them).

[wanton venture]

Good thinking

Will do that, thanks!

[formal veldt]

thanks

[formal veldt]

no problem

[nimble sonnet]

guys pls i have a problem

with blending transitions in anim controllers

they don,t smoothly blend to the next state

this is how it should look like (blockcench preview)

this is how it looks like in game for some reason

this is the code pls help

anim files just in case

[frank carbon]

When a state transition occurs, any animations in that state play from the beginning. @nimble sonnet

[rain egret]

Some of your animations have override_previous_animation set to true and others have the loop hold_on_last_frame

[frank carbon]

I'll take a closer look

[nimble sonnet]

yeah, the movement anims(sprinting,move,etc) use the loop mode

the rest of em use hold_on_last_frame

[rain egret]

Yes, Also that depends on how you made the animations

I don't know if the override function affects transitions.

[frank carbon]

Ah, I suspect it could also be your blend_transition values. Going out from default, and from move, blends linearly over 0.3 seconds.

Although I would think that would let the animations hold in place

[rain egret]

You may also have a problem with your entity client.

[nimble sonnet]

what shoudl i do?

[frank carbon]

I would first try setting your longsword_idle animation's loop mode to true and test it again.

(It shouldn't affect much, but I am curious to see)

[rain egret]

Yep, I also had a similar problem, changing it to loop true fixed the transition

[frank carbon]

After that I would investigate the override_previous_animation flag.

[nimble sonnet]

still the same

in fact i tried putting it on hold_on_last_frame to try if it would finally work

[nimble sonnet]

if i don,t enable that option (its enabled on all anims) it makes a pretty weird result

kinda like playing the vanilla anim with mines

at the same time

[nimble sonnet]

but it doesn,t make this weird ass effect

[nimble sonnet]

wdym with how i made the anims?

[coarse mica]

How do you detect if a player collides with a specific entity?

[wanton venture]

How can I play an animation when an entity teleports

[formal veldt]

you could use properties for this too.

[wanton venture]

How so?

[formal veldt]

before the entity starts teleporting, set the property, and use this property in an animation controller and delay the teleportation until the animation is over.

[wanton venture]

I found out I can do ground speed > 16 and works well for a “teleport animation” but mine is before teleportation

[wanton venture]

Before how tho? How do I check right before it teleports

Because otherwise, even idle would be before yeleport

[formal veldt]

you are triggering something to make it teleport no

or is there a behavior for this

[wanton venture]

The teleport component

[formal veldt]

that wouldn't work anyway

[wanton venture]

Used by enderman

[formal veldt]

it instantly teleports.

[wanton venture]

Yeah that’s the thing

So I would need like spread players instead of the behavior

Or other system

[formal veldt]

to delay the teleport and trigger an animation beforehand

yes

[wanton venture]

I see

[formal veldt]

I wouldn't use spread players, I would make a script for it

[wanton venture]

Why not spreadplayers?

[formal veldt]

me personally

because I like creating stuff

lol

[wanton venture]

Gotcha

I will try, thanks!

[nimble sonnet]

Pls any help with this?

[near berry]

Can we disable "minecraft:conditional_bandwidth_optimization": {}, and what would happen if I did

[wooden fiber]

more frequent and more greater size packets will be sent from server to clients, pushing more pressures to your network

question: anyone knows how to control entities behavior by interacting different parts of the entity body? i know minecraft:custom_hit_tests but it seems only defining multiple interaction areas but no event triggers.

[near berry]

but that could prevent mob being glitchy from moving around or not, if you ever face that problem?

[wooden fiber]

yes, the essence of this component is to ask clients to simulate probable entity positions and/or movement trails instead of sending true data from server

the optimization is for network but not renderer

[near berry]

I will try delete that component and do some testing in multiplayer to see if the result is good or not

[wooden fiber]

its a trade-off whatever

[near berry]

I just want to turn it off for player and 1 custom bot entity I made, It's a practice map so need to be accurate in position

I don't want to have glitchy mob so I will see if that's good enough

[wooden fiber]

then turn it off definitely

[near berry]

by just delete that component line right, just to make sure

[wooden fiber]

yes. and if you still unhappy about the default behavior, add this component again and modify the detailed values: https://learn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/minecraft/creator/reference/content/entityreference/examples/entitycomponents/minecraftcomponent_conditional_bandwidth_optimization?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

[near berry]

yah i'm reading the docs rn, thanks

[wooden fiber]

anyone knows this?

[crimson pumice]

can you make a loot table that drops certain items based on what the player used to kill the entity?

[crimson pumice]

you could try multiple entities?

[kind charm]

Yes.

[crimson pumice]

how do you make it NOT drop an item if they're holding something specific

[elfin iron]

u didn't ping me so i almost forgot i asked here, thxs!

[crimson pumice]

how do you speed up an entity animation
(pls ping me)

[charred cargo]

In anim_time_update on your animation put query.anim_time + query.delta_time * num
Where num is the amount of times faster you want the animation to be
You can also change the * to a / if you want to make the animation slower instead

[crimson pumice]

i don't have anim_time_update anywhere

[charred cargo]

Then add it in blockbench or to the actual file

[crimson pumice]

how do you add it

[charred cargo]

"animations": { "animation.humanoid.lightning_hands_true3": { "loop": true, "animation_length": 0.2, "loop_delay": 0, "anim_time_update": "query.anim_time + query.delta_time / 100000",

[crimson pumice]

ty

[charred cargo]

There's an example

[charred cargo]

Np

However this will make your animation permanently sped up

[crimson pumice]

ok???

[charred cargo]

I'm saying this just incase you want to make if faster under specific circumstances, since there's a way to do that

[crimson pumice]

is there a query.is_climbing for spider like entities

i want the spider to be sideways when climbing

(my custom spider)

[charred cargo]

You should really check the docs for the right query

Although, to answer your question, no

[crimson pumice]

i already checked 😭

[charred cargo]

Bruh
Have you tried is_levatating?

[nimble nova]

On entity an entity definition file, I have a component group that applies a component group that sets the minecraft:scale property. This works fine for uniform scale changes, but I'm curious if there is a way to apply scale on only one of the three axes?

[charred cargo]

Not with the scale component

You'd have to just alter the model size, probably with an animation, and change the hitbox size

[nimble nova]

Can entities play multiple animations at the same time?

[kind charm]

Yes.

[crimson pumice]

no
will do

[reef oyster]

why isn't the age event working?

[barren plover]

Why is my event not triggered, when my projectile hits the ground?json "minecraft:projectile": { "on_hit": { "definition_event": { "affect_projectile": true, "event_trigger": { "event": "aaa:dark_bomb_explode", "target": "self" } }, "remove_on_hit": {} }, "power": 0.7, "gravity": 0.03, "angle_offset": -20, "hit_sound": "aaa.hit_normal" }

[rain egret]

And the event?

[barren plover]

            }
        }```

[rain egret]

Your events do not match

One is aaa: and the other is aria_ah:

[barren plover]

I copied it wrong, its the same name

[rain egret]

Remove the targets, they are not necessary if the event is going to be performed on the same entity and remove affect_projectile

Also make sure that your format_version is version 1.20.80 which is when the queue_command function was added

[barren plover]

It still doens't work

[rain egret]

Remove the remove_on_hit function and remove the entity with an instant_despawn component group.

[barren plover]

The Event still doesn't get triggered

[rain egret]

Show how you have the event and the component

[rain egret]

If possible, the entire document

[barren plover]

This is the filejson { "format_version": "1.20.80", "minecraft:entity": { "description": { "identifier": "aaa:dark_bomb", "is_spawnable": false, "is_summonable": true, "is_experimental": false, "runtime_identifier": "minecraft:snowball" }, "components": { "minecraft:collision_box": { "width": 0.25, "height": 0.25 }, "minecraft:projectile": { "on_hit": { "definition_event": { "event_trigger": { "event": "aaa:dark_bomb_explode" } } }, "power": 0.7, "gravity": 0.03, "angle_offset": -20, "hit_sound": "aaa.hit_normal" }, "minecraft:physics": {}, "minecraft:pushable": { "is_pushable": true, "is_pushable_by_piston": true }, "minecraft:instant_despawn": {}, "minecraft:conditional_bandwidth_optimization": { "default_values": { "max_optimized_distance": 80, "max_dropped_ticks": 10, "use_motion_prediction_hints": true } } }, "events": { "aaa:dark_bomb_explode": { "queue_command": { "command": [ "scriptevent aaa:create_horror_biome 4 2 -1", "say hai", "tell @a hai" ] } } } } }

The instant_despawn component must be in a component group and must be added from the event with trigger, command or add component

[rain egret]

Event_trigger->aaa:dark_bomb_explode->add component group->instant despawn

[barren plover]

potz Blitz

[barren plover]

thanks

it works now!

Do you know how I can add a texture to the entity?

it should be like a snowball

[rain egret]

What? You don't have entity_client?

[barren plover]

no

[rain egret]

Just copy the snowball's client entity and change the ud and texture

[barren plover]

thanks

[lost jungle]

Would it be fair to say that an entity with a lot of geometry would be more taxing on devices?
Namely, a mob with 70+ cubes for its geometry, would it cause lag?

[main cedar]

Of course, as with anything

As for the severity

Thats to be seen

[charred cargo]

I've made armor pieces and small item with literal hundreds of cubes

You shouldn't experience much lag as long as the cubes aren't all individually animated in my experience

And this is also coming from someone using their phone to test the addon so any other device, unless really poorly optimised, should be fine

[lost jungle]

I see.

My concern arose when I realise my mobs are made of about 80 cubes on average.
They are rather large, and there are 12 different types of these creatures. I plan to have this addon run on a private server with friends where some play on switch lites.
I became familiar with their limitations and thus try to keep addons on the light end even though we do enjoy playing with addons.

These creatures are modelled after realistic dinosaurs.
While their style and creation process are consistent. Their high cube count made me worried.

Thankfully, they are intended to be a rarity in minecraft. As the player needs to revive them by finding fossils.
So they wont spawn in the world naturally, and the player can manage their population at least.

I may also add their animations are simple for their application as mobs in minecraft.
And their textures are not animated either (I wont even know how to do that).

[ruby cape]

anybody know how i can compress the dragon's hearts?

[charred cargo]

I experienced lag in my item with a 1000 cubes only when the item was also extremely close to the screen.
The only other factors that I would worry about are size and individual animation (mine had an animation using math.random_integer to make all the angles random).

So I wouldn't be too worried about the affect on performance.

Nevertheless, I wish your private server good luck.

[half solar]

since script api general is busy, how do i make a block spawn animated entity, whose animation speed depends on dynamic variable?

[kind charm]

That's a #1067876948858118185 question. But in short, use Custom Components onPlace.

[half solar]

guys how do i model my entity to look just like the block and not like complete gibberish after i convert it via blockbench? like the model of the entity w/o txt is fine, but texture (despite setting UVs "correctly" via blockbench) fails to apply correctly?

[turbid vine]

Hi

How can I get the yaw of the entity I'm working with, query.head_x_rotation(0) is ignored

@kind charm

[half solar]

How do i animate an entity with animation speed controlled by script?

[charred cargo]

Not possible without specific context
What does the script do

Are you using the player.json behaviour file in your addon already/are you willing to use it?

[formal veldt]

you can use a property and query it within the anim_time_update of the animation.

[charred cargo]

Yh

[formal veldt]

"anim_time_update": "query.anim_time + query.delta_time * query.property('whatever:property')"

[charred cargo]

Wait, I thought this went in anim_time_update

Does it work on both?

[formal veldt]

I said timeline on accident.

[charred cargo]

Oh, makes more sense

[half solar]

i am willing to use it
whatever
i just want to rotate an entity

[charred cargo]

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/entities/entity-properties
Here is the basics on what properties are and how they work

Do take note, though, that player.json modifications will limit cross addon compatibility

[half solar]

why'd i need to modify player.json ??

ik entity properties thing

idk how to animate the shit with em

[charred cargo]

You can access properties in the resource pack when you set client_sync to true

So you use the script to set the property and them test it in the animation

And it would look like this "anim_time_update": "query.property("your_property_name") ? query.anim_time + query.delta_time * num : query.anim_time + query.delta_time"

[lofty citrus]

is it possible to create an armor stand entity?

[stable brook]

hello i have an custom entity how to the entity can spawn normally in the world? like pig, chicken ecc

[half solar]

how do i statically rotate an entity

[west gull]

Can we set the cube size and position dynamically?

[charred cargo]

You can use an animation to do both of those things

[charred cargo]

You can use the runtime identifier to give the entity all the armor stand features

But it will force you to have the drop of the entity be an armour stand

[west gull]

I want to change it using scripting API.

So I would like to know if I can modify it with properties or something.

[charred cargo]

Properties is likely the way to go
But you still need an animation

[west gull]

OK How can I do this?

[charred cargo]

Do you know how to use properties, first of all

If not, then use this
https://wiki.bedrock.dev/entities/entity-properties

[nimble kernel]

hi pookies, why I see many addons says not using player.json does player.json affect performance or something?

[west gull]

how to use that for geo

[charred cargo]

I've told you how this works aleeady

[half solar]

yeah but i wanna rotate non-trivially

like upside down or sth like that

currently i wanna rotate 90 degrees

in z

[charred cargo]

Is it a custom entity or player?

[half solar]

custom entity

i'd rather not create custom animation just for the static rotation

????????????????

[charred cargo]

There is legitimately no other way to make an entity rotate without animations

Even the way the player moves their head is controlled by an animation

And custom animations are extremely easy to make

[half solar]

okay whatever

doesnt it kill the performance tho?

[charred cargo]

Not at all

Have you never made an animation
Just curious

[half solar]

i'm in the process of making this shi

since i need static rotation + dynamic rotation offset.

its annoying asf

ohh damn i can rotate the body for what i want

YAAY

i dont have to suffer

[charred cargo]

There was no suffering in the first place😭

[half solar]

shi

i have to suffer

[charred cargo]

What are you trying to do with the animation other than the 90⁰ rotation

[half solar]

so firstly i want to rotate it accordingly to ""linked"" block's facing dir, then i need to rotate it based on speed provided in it's property

rpm *

so i need to rotate the whole body

with rpm

[rain shuttle]

How would I be able to make an entity face 90 degrees and when it goes on a curved rail turn 90 degrees to where ever that rail is facing (basically just want a Minecart)

[steel jasper]

Is it possible to have an entity appear on maps like a player?

[charred cargo]

The player.entity.json has no abnormal performance effects (unless theres an ungodly large amount of editing done to it like with anything), but the player.entity.json file is a file that can cause addon compatability issues do to only one being able function in every world since the file has the same name im every addon its in, so whichever addon with the file is closest to the top in your world settings is the only one to be read, so then not all addons can be in the same world, which limits the fun users can have
If there's anything you didn't understand, let me know

[charred cargo]

Have you had a look at the entity.json file of the minecart?

[rain shuttle]

Yes but nothing useful was in it

At least at first glance

[charred cargo]

I don't think you looked hard enough

I just looked and found out exactly how it works

[rain shuttle]

Yea I’m thinking that to I will take a second look where does it say how it exactly works?

[charred cargo]

It doesn't say it
But there is only one animation (which is how it was bound to work)
Then if you go to the minecart animations file you'll find exactly how the system works

[rain shuttle]

Ok will do 👍

[half solar]

okay how tf do i make that rotation animation

i made this but it does nothing (yes, stuff is set.)

        }
    }
}```

i aint checking y stuff for now

but x,z doesnt event work duh

how do i animate the block properly???

[kind charm]

Im a bit confused what your issue is exactly. Are there any content logs? Is your animation properly implemented? As in, without all this q.property stuff, it animates.

[half solar]

i replaced all of the q.property with 0,0,0 and 180,180,180. i get no animation

{
    "format_version": "1.20.80",
    "minecraft:client_entity": {
        "description": {
            "identifier": "createbedrock:cogwheel_entity",
            "materials": {
                "default": "entity_alphatest"
            },
            "textures": {
                "default": "textures/entity/cogwheel_entity"
            },
            "geometry": {
                "default": "geometry.cogwheel_entity"
            },
            "render_controllers": [
                "controller.render.cogwheel_entity"
            ],
            "spawn_egg": {
                "base_color": "#000000",
                "overlay_color": "#FFFFFF"
            },
            "animations": {
                "rpm_rotation": "animation.entity.rpm_rotation"
            },
            "scripts": {
                "animate": [
                    "rpm_rotation"
                ]
            }
        }
    }
}```

i even replaced stuff with random values, no animation whatsoever

[kind charm]

Any content log? Are you animating this in blockbench?

Try format version 1.10.0

[half solar]

i don't need blockbench for anything other than base models, since i am rotating them

[kind charm]

Well Im saying, does it animate properly in blockbench?

[half solar]

idk

1.10.0 does not work with q.property's

[kind charm]

I meant for your client entity.

[half solar]

yeah what about it, i don't use any "animation" feature from blockbench (maybe i should?)

[half solar]

with random values doesnt work either

??????????????

[kind charm]

I recommend setting up the entity normally first:

• Create a basic animation over a length of 5 seconds that makes it rotate
• Ensure ingame the entity is rotating

[half solar]

{
    "format_version": "1.10.0",
    "animations": {
        "animation.entity.rpm_rotation": {
            "loop": true,
            "animation_length": 1.0,
            "bones": {
                "root": {
                    "rotation": {
                        "0.0": [
                            "0",
                            "0",
                            "0"
                        ],
                        "1.0": [
                            "0",
                            "180",
                            "0"
                        ]
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

that's basic animation imo

[west gull]

anyone ? I am trying to change the geo dynamically.

[nimble kernel]

thanks so much

[kind charm]

Define change geo. Are you trying to make it stretch? Then yes, use entity properties and use q.property inside the animation values.

[west gull]

Like a hitbox

[kind charm]

You'll need multiple Component Groups that have a predefined size.

Use environment sensor to get the property and add/remove the CGs.

[west gull]

No, it needs to be dynamic because I will be controlling it through scripting.

[kind charm]

Then you cannot.

Oh wait. Hang on.

Do you mean hitbox like the entity's collision or "like a hitbox" is referring to your geo expanding and shrinking dunamically?

[west gull]

2nd

[kind charm]

Then yeah, do this.

[half solar]

blockbench gave me exactly the same code

yoo it worked

i needed to change "root" to "bone"

[charred cargo]

Did you not have a root folder in your model?

[half solar]

idk

how do i make an entity immovable by piston

[kind charm]

Use the pushable component.

[half solar]

and block?

[kind charm]

Youll need to wait for 1.21.90 to use the movable component.

[half solar]

ohh alright

[lofty citrus]

how do I do that?

[charred cargo]

In description in your entity

Add "runtime_identifier": "armor_stand"

[west gull]

My entity moves as I get closer to it. How can I avoid this?

i want to block it completely

[kind charm]

Do you have the avoid mob component?

[west gull]

Okay, I fixed it; the only issue now is that properties are not working.

"properties": {
"debug:width": {
"type": "float",
"client_sync": true,
"default": 1
},
"debug:length": {
"type": "float",
"client_sync": true,
"default": 1
},
"debug:height": {
"type": "float",
"client_sync": true,
"default": 1
}
}

[kind charm]

Content log?

Ah, you need range.

[west gull]

Why

Damn

[west gull]

Why is it not working?

"scripts": {
        "animate": [
          "default"
        ]
      },
      "animations": {
        "default": "animation.box.new"
      },

  ```

"animations": {
"animation.box.new": {

it says can not find default

[neat sky]

In most cases this means the animation has an incorrect name inside of the animation file

[west gull]

its correct

this syntax is showing errors
"8 * ((q.property('debug:width')??1)-1)"

i think i must remove the ??1

yeah now it works

[kind charm]

Yep, I had this same issue. You need to store the query in a variable.

[west gull]

how to do that?

[kind charm]

#692127609043157096 message

[west gull]

I am using the same query for different bones. Can I store the results once and use them? Also, instead of looping and quering repeatedly, can we update the animation only when a property changes?

[kind charm]

In pre animation store the query in a variable.

[west gull]

I can't see that in Blockbench

[kind charm]

Its not in animations, its in the client entity.

[west gull]

what about other part

[lofty citrus]

will I also be able to manipulate where the hand is? or is it hardcoded?

[half solar]

how can i make an entity now show death animation

ok i figured it out

[stable brook]

how do i create display item? an entity invisible when i interact the entity shows the item in my hand

like itemframe

[west gull]

I want the custom entity to not trigger the pressure plate. How can I do this?

[charred cargo]

Hardcoded I believe

[earnest flare]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[kind charm]

No.

[earnest flare]

One message removed from a suspended account.

One message removed from a suspended account.

One message removed from a suspended account.

[west gull]

Man, I can not find a way to disable the pressure plate trigger by entity.

[charred cargo]

I don't think that's possible, sadly
It would honestly make for a really good beforeEvent

[west gull]

i wanted to yhe entiry for visual stuff only

[charred cargo]

Maybe try making the entity have no gravity? 🤷‍♂️

[west gull]

i have that already

[charred cargo]

Idk, your idea is quite not possible

[nova plume]

Maybe predict it next position before it reaches the block?
Not sure how that would turn out

[kind charm]

Does the entity pathfind? If not, disable physics. That should work.

[west gull]

i have that already

[west gull]

see

[west gull]

So any fix?

[lofty citrus]

welp that's sad, anyways thanks

[charred cargo]

What you want to do isn't impossible, mind you, you'd just need to not use the runtime identifier

You could probably use the interact component and a script to emulate the armor stand

[lofty citrus]

I need the display though? what's one way to do it?

[charred cargo]

Why do you want to edit the position anyway

[lofty citrus]

im trying to make a item frame like entity

floating item display

[charred cargo]

Wait

I just noticed something

The runtime_identifier works with the entity hitbox

Though, I don't know how well the armor pieces will work

[west gull]

I am still looking for a solution to this.

[heavy coral]

How to make an entity that spawns with iron armor equipped and iron pickaxe in hand?

[charred cargo]

There's an event for that in scripting, or you could use actual entity event with the "minecraft:entity_spawned" event

[heavy coral]

No i meant the armor and pickaxe part

[charred cargo]

I meant to run a command and give them armor

[heavy coral]

How to make entity equip the armor and hold pickaxe?

[charred cargo]

Replaceitem

[mental star]

Is there any existing long distance ai behavior pathing that makes them navigate to specific coordinates? Like more aggressive and dynamic than home coordinates that bees use?

[mental star]

Currently forcing them with impulses and disabling collision physics to prevent them from being stuck but maybe there is a cleaner way...

[vivid coyote]

Hello!

If I were create a custom entity that is rideable, how would I make it equip another item instead of the vanilla saddle?

[gilded shore]

Hello, I was wondering if there's any way to disable the animation when rotating an entity, I don't want the entity to take a turn, I want it to immediately have that rotation (Y AXIS)

[lofty citrus]

can somebody help me on this armorstand issue?
https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1381262079637590147

custom armor somehow accepts the item but shows no display

Did you only test in creative

[west gull]

whats the issue in this

the vars arnt working

[lofty citrus]

yes

[charred cargo]

Armor stands are built to do that when players are in creative

[lofty citrus]

to not show the item in creative?

[lofty citrus]

im trying to do this what's one way I can do it @charred cargo

@mellow halo sorry for the ping man but is it possible to know how you did it?

[mellow halo]

those are just small entities. They are holding the items that you see.

[lofty citrus]

armor stand entity?

[charred cargo]

Please do not ping me
Did you set enable_attachables to true

[lofty citrus]

sorry about that, nope

[mellow halo]

custom entity not armor stand.

[lofty citrus]

the disenchanter:slot entity?

[mellow halo]

yes

[lofty citrus]

ohh I see

then you spawn them around when block is placed then you get the item component forEach then assign it

Thank you very much

[west gull]

Man, could someone help me with this to prevent entities from interacting with things like plates

Then I think there may be nothing that you can do

what is custom hit test about ? it seems to solve it

[west gull]

@kind charm this should be working right? ^

[kind charm]

It might not be setup in a proper step. How do you know exactly it isnt working? Try adding it all in one line, at least those that depend on previous vars.

[west gull]

because it is always using value 1 instead of the one I passed from scripts.

[kind charm]

I see, does setting the var to 10 without using q.property work? If not your animation is set up wrong.

in animation 1.8?

Nope not workin

Does the animation actually play? Without all these vars, just random values?

[west gull]

i sent both the codes

vut it looks like its not playin

it was working fine on blockbench

[crimson pumice]

how do i only use an attachable file if the player is holding the item in their offhand

and not run the holding item animation on the player when this specific item is held in the offhand

[west gull]

okay i found the issue,

we cant have ; for simple exp

What is the minimum material code for rendering tex behind block and glow in the night?

[lofty citrus]

how the heck do they make zombies have Mainhand?

[lofty citrus]

how do I add equippable component to my usto entity?
I can't seem to get the equippable component of th entity through script

[kind charm]

That component is only readable for Player.

It is disabled for non player entities.

[lofty citrus]

so the only way I can access mainhand is through commands then

[kind charm]

Yes.

[west shard]

How can I use .glb models in sketchfab in blockbench (suitable for bedrock edition entity)

[charred cargo]

Set the controller.render.item_default render controller to only appear if query.is_item_name_any('slot.weapon.mainhand', 0, 'your_item:identifier') (or if you give your item a custom tag then you can check for if query.equipped_item_any_tag('slot.weapon.mainhand','itemTag')) is true

[charred cargo]

You need an animation with the rotation 0, 0, 0 on the arms and set it to "override_previous_animation": true

Or an animation that has "override_previous_animation": false (or not there at all since false is the default value) and is just a negative rotation value of the actual animation (which you can find in the vanilla resources document)

[west gull]

wheres can see doc for geometry

[chrome plinth]

can we edit player health to decrease?

[kind charm]

MS docs has the schemas.

[west gull]

i am unable to understand what are these for ?

[crimson pumice]

yes but you'd have to change the player.json, which is not great

.

how do i set a custom particle to display when a mob dies instead of the default smoke?

[frank carbon]

There's two steps to that.

1. Prevent the normal death smoke from playing. You can stop this at the source by preventing the entity from dying on death, perhaps via damage sensor, or by transforming it to another entity when its health hits 0.
2. Emit your custom particle when the entity should die. That is, after death is prevented in step 1, you wait one second before playing your particle and despawning the entity. Perhaps using an animation timer, or using a timeout in scripting.

[west gull]

I can see a difference in material codes that allow rendering of entities through walls. What is the minimum code requirement for that?

[charred cargo]

Minimum code requirements probably won't do anything at all

I think you're overestimating how weak performance is

[lost jungle]

I have sharks that love hunting fish. But they are messy eaters and leave a ton of leftovers in the water.
As fun as it is to just collect some seafood after the sharks, it has made me worried that these extra items may cause unnecessary lag in the world.

Is there a way for them to:

• kill mobs but it won't drop loot.
• Possibly have the sharks pick up the items. And possibly consume them over time to act as a cooldown for when they next go hunting (fyi, they only do that at night. And if they pick up these items, would the player be able to get it back if the sharks is killed?)
• Add a timer on top of the scheduler for when they hunt at night to do that once in a while? Which would look odd if a shark pick off one fish in a while, but it would mean less items in the ocean.

[solar tendon]

is there any way to have an entity only spawn in cardinal directions? like random ones

[kind charm]

You can use the body rotation locked component and the body axis align component.

[solar tendon]

k, ty

[solar tendon]

wait, question

does "body_rotation_blocked": {} block all entity rotation or only rotation from the entity's AI?

". Combining this with the "minecraft:body_rotation_blocked" component will cause the entity to align to the nearest cardinal direction and remain fixed in that orientation, regardless of future changes in its facing direction." - I still need to move this with script api

[rain egret]

Have you tried changing the version?

[indigo galleon]

yes

[rain egret]

Your code is too big, 6000 lines, I can't see the error, the environment sensor and damage sensor components have too many filters that my bridge doesn't work properly, Try removing those components, if it works after removing them then that's where the error is.

dw i patched it, it was the scaffolding climber component

That one is deprecated.

        },
        "minecraft:flying_speed": {

I would just have a timer that switches from random hover to whatever component makes it walk.

Can someone please help me?? I started my testing world and half of my entities stopped working with error messages like these

idk what to do

i have similar entities and those work perfectly

i've changed their format versions, possible "errors", manifest version, etc and nothing works

what happened with 1.21.90-92??? did they change something?? or why things stopped working?

[wanton venture]

Thanks! Yes, that’s what I opted doing. Using fly movement instead does the work, but my entity won’t fly as much in X and z axis for whatever reasons.

[wanton venture]

Compare your syntax with the one at the Microsoft docs

[proven sluice]

i did, and as i said, i have creatures which are basically the same and are still working

between the necromancer (which works) and the orc (wich doesn't) there's basically no difference

shareables cannot be added in component groups now, randomizer events aren't working, what is happening!? D:

[reef oyster]

I tried to give this mob the runtime identifier of "minecraft:happy_ghast" and it caused the mob to have a sesure with it looking around and when it picked the player up the game crashed. I am not asking for help, I am just noting down something that happened from some experimentation I did

[kind charm]

Why do you need to use a runtime id?

You should not use runtime ids.

[reef oyster]

I just wanted to see what would happen

basicly curiosity

(i tried to change the geometry data but didn't help) edit: i was able to fiz it, was kinda simple but not obvious solution lol

[limpid wave]

here's a random question - Did something change in the last couple of updates, that would affect randomization within entity spawning?

I have both Adult/Baby, and colour variants in the minecraft:entity_spawned event, but it's not randomizing either of them.

I'm using

"randomize": [
    {
        "add": {
            "component_groups": [ "FoF:brown" ]
        },
        "weight": 1
    },
        etc...

and it's only ever spawning new mobs with variant 0 (brown)

"FoF:brown": {
    "minecraft:variant": {
        "value": 0
    }
},

There are still existing mobs in the world with the correct variant/colour... but no new ones are spawning with randomized colour

[kind charm]

Not as far as I know.

[proven sluice]

and how to get that name

[mossy topaz]

Hey is there anyone here who knows how to make a new mob that do the same thing as the evocation fangs of evoker?

[covert sphinx]

i do

u can just copy the component that makes the evoker do it in your mob's behavior file

[mossy topaz]

That's not what I was asking sorry to clarify I need a mob like the evocation fangs not like it specificaly but a mob that doesn't move but still damage the player when they are close to it and do not damage the summoner since that what's the evocation fangs do

[covert sphinx]

hmmmm

yea you can just clone the evocation fangs' behavior json and make it into a new emtity

and make your mob summon it

[opaque coyote]

Any reason why my animation isn't found?

[charred cargo]

An animation not being found most likely means you have errors in the animation file, above that point in the animation file

[opaque coyote]

that one?

[charred cargo]

Sorry I had to leave
As well as in that animation possibly too

Can also be the queries as well

[opaque coyote]

I managed to fix that

but now the item isn't rendering correctly

Rendering huge like that

[charred cargo]

Is it due to an animation or geometry

[opaque coyote]

I don't know how I can set a geometry for this exact item without attachhable needed

[charred cargo]

Try creating an animation to scale it down and play at the same time as this or alter the scale of the item in that animation

[opaque coyote]

do i have to set a render controller for this?

Because I don't want an attachable file for this to work

[charred cargo]

All I said is make an animation

[opaque coyote]

okay

so the animation has to take the rightItem bone right?

[lofty citrus]

can somebody explain to me what are personas?

[opaque coyote]

i'm trying and it doesn't work

[charred cargo]

For the player?
And it doesn't work and there are no logs?

[opaque coyote]

i checked logs and there are no error

for the player it stills has the massive item rendering

@kind charm do you know well about animation about a certain item ? I know you know a lot of bedrock stuff

[kind charm]

😓 Sorry, I'm reading back up and it seems you're still having trouble with certain items not being able to be overridden with attachables. I've messed with attachables but not for vanilla items unfortunately.

[opaque coyote]

I managed to fix their animation using player player.animation.json by using the same method mojang used for the heavy core

However, the method I used don't work for 1st person, only in third

[long oriole]

does the wither_skull_dangerous exists in monecraft bedrock?

[sturdy iris]

hello, stupid here, I have a lil question

I have this custom mob, I want it to produce particles, sorta like the blaze

is it even possible and how do I do it if it is?

[charred cargo]

You need to add a particle_effects section to the entity, and define particles under it like this

  "Shortname": "particle:identifier"
}```
 then when it plays an animation you can put the shortname in the "particle_effects" section alongside a locator for the particle to spawn at

It should look like this in the animation for an example

    "0.0": [
        {
            "effect": "shortname",
            "locator": "locator_name"
        }
    ]
}```

[sturdy iris]

Yo thx

I'll try and implement this

But before that I have some concerts

I've seen people implement particles to their mobs and they kinda uh

Overproduce said particles

[charred cargo]

I think that's just because of the frequency of the particles generated coupled with the lifetime of the particle

If the rate of particle production in the particle file and/or animation is higher than the speed of which particles will either die or stop being produced the more particles that can be generated on top of particles that are already there

[sturdy iris]

I want My mob to create the biome leaf particle, will such a thing happen?

[charred cargo]

Do you want it to function the same way as biome leaf particle in terms of how it falls or do you want it to just look like the particle

[sturdy iris]

Ye

The first

[charred cargo]

Thank you, I was confused🫠

[sturdy iris]

Aren't we all in a way? It's fine

[charred cargo]

🗣️ fr
but anyways, you'll want to have a look at the particle file to see how it works so that you know how long it will take for a new particle to spawn as well as to know its identifier if you don't know already

[sturdy iris]

If know the identifier so that part is done

[sturdy iris]

btw uh, in the RP or BP file?

[charred cargo]

Resource pack

I can send an example file, if you'd like to see it, of both the entity and animation

[sturdy iris]

i'd like that very much

please do

[sturdy iris]

thx dude

[sturdy iris]

Strange

The particle I want to use is biome_tinted_leaves_particle

I can't find it on the wiki tho...

I did find tinted_leaves. Problem is that I found it on the Java section

I also found pale_oak_leaves_particle on the bedrock section, however if I can't tint these in any way they're of no use to me

[sturdy iris]

So I'm stuck in a bit of a pickle

I want the leaf particle effects to be a specific color

Pale oak & chery leaf particles, as far as I am aware, cannot be changed

I did find biome_tinted_leaves_particle

I tested it out but uh

Yeah that didn't go all that well...

Is there maybe a way to change the color?

or any other leaf-like particle I can use?

[kind charm]

Use scriptapi and MolangVariableMap
