Entities General

[vague gale]

Im not sure if I am suppose to being doing all the animation controllers within the BP or if I am suppose to do them with in the RP somehow

Cuz the animations aint showing up in game

even with the controllers and animations all set

[charred cargo]

For starters, use query.ground_speed > 0.1 instead of !query.is_idling

[vague gale]

Alr

[charred cargo]

Secondly, the behaviour pack anomation controls the entities behaviours and the resource pack animation controls the entities visuals
So if the animation is visual and not behavioural then it should have everything be in the resource pack

[vague gale]

So then How would I edit the player.json file in the RP?

to see the animations show up in game

[charred cargo]

By adding the RP player.json file to your RP

Player.entity.json

[vague gale]

hmmm so I can find that in the RP?

[charred cargo]

You need to get it from the vanilla packs and add it to your RP

[vague gale]

Yea I found it

Ima see if this works

[vague gale]

Thx a lot man

[charred cargo]

The bedrock samples are what your looking for

[vague gale]

yea, I have the latest one downloaded

[charred cargo]

No problems
Happy to help

[vague gale]

I just had no clue that there was a player.json file for the RP

lol

[charred cargo]

Lol

[magic crystal]

What material will make an entity keep its color when in a block?

[safe drum]

How to make a entity that can't move and cant get hurt?

[lone egret]

dont add any movement components and add damage_sensor to cancel all types of attack or something

minecraft:health
minecraft:collision_box
minecraft:damage_sensor

i think this is enough

[opaque coyote]

When my custom entity gets attacked (hurt) its animation gets reset

And plays a no animation

Like no cubes move

[wanton venture]

Can I have an entity in which I can walk, which also has no shadow?

[kind charm]

Yes.

[wanton venture]

How?

[kind charm]

Could you actually define what walk means?

[wanton venture]

Like in the happy ghast. It seems I need the collision box component, which also creates the shadow

[kind charm]

Check the wiki.

Utilise the collideable component + render when invisible.

[wanton venture]

oh, smart

Thank you

[strong geode]

Why the entity doesn't walk to attack? Only stand in the original place

[opaque coyote]

please

[merry lake]

Pwease help

[glossy yew]

Vanilla does this by making babies and adults the same entity with different component groups.

Or look at how zombie villager conversion works on vanilla. I think variant numbers get kept. I am not sure if it’s possible to keep the owner id this way though.

[merry lake]

I need the baby and adult to be different entities though

[bleak moat]

I also have the same issue so if u find a fix lemme know

[scenic sandal]

cant u js do transform?

idk with entities

[opaque coyote]

??

[bleak moat]

It breaks the owner attacked by target and attacked by owner or whatever components

Basically it won’t help u fight

[strong geode]

Why the entity doesn't defend for trusted or follow the mob?

Other thing work properly

[subtle glade]

Why doesn't the projectile go in the direction the player is looking? I'm using the same arrow animation

"rotation": [
  "variable.shake_power - query.target_x_rotation",
  "-query.target_y_rotation",
  0.0
]

[indigo sparrow]

hi guys

i want my hostile mob to stop moving when it finds a target (and roar to targets)

like warden

ik warden uses minecraft:roar

but it needs minecraft:anger_level to work

and anger level can be increased by only listening sounds from targets

but my mob uses eyes to find targets

so im using minecraft:behavior.nearest_attackable_target for now

how can i do this?

if u can help me, pls ping me and reply

thx

[quiet ore]

Is there a way to make custom mobs spawn in trial chambers (from the trial spawners)?

[oblique lichen]

Is there a component that allows entities to walk up blocks when being ridden. Anytime my custom mob tries to walk up a block, I have to keep pressing the jump button.

[covert sphinx]

have you tried adding this?
"minecraft:variable_max_auto_step": { "base_value": 1.0, "jump_prevented_value": 0.5625 }

[safe drum]

how to make my entity able to jump over blocks

[lone egret]

try minecraft:navigation.generic

[merry lake]

How do I make an entity place like in a block gris?

[safe drum]

I added this compoenent, the entity still can't jump over blocks

"minecraft:navigation.generic": {
"can_jump": true
}

[safe drum]

@pseudo coyote help
u said u good with entities

[true surge]

I believe you would need minecraft:jump.static

But also, why not just check a vanilla entity for reference?

[oblique lichen]

Yep, I did and it worked. Thanks!

[covert sphinx]

nice

[safe drum]

I also have that component, It still doesn't work

edit: I made it work somehow it works

[merry lake]

How do I make an entity place like in a block grid?

-# someone help

[barren plover]

Why isn't this working?json { "format_version": "1.21.50", "minecraft:entity": { "description": { "identifier": "me:floating_text", "is_summonable": true, "is_spawnable": false, "is_experimental": false }, "components": { "minecraft:physics": { "has_gravity": false, "has_collision": false }, "minecraft:pushable": { "is_pushable": false, "is_pushable_by_piston": false }, "minecraft:damage_sensor": { "triggers": { "cause": "all", "deals_damage": "no" } }, "minecraft:nameable": { "allow_name_tag_renaming": false, "always_show": true }, "minecraft:fire_immune": true, "minecraft:health": { "value": 100 } } } }

[barren plover]

is it possible to disable the dialog menu but still have this screen in creative?

[lone egret]

is it possible to use int property as value for player attack component or something?

[wanton oar]

anyone knows why my particle is not rendering?

in game

it does work in blockbench

[bleak moat]

anyone know why the model refuses to be updated for the horse?

[mental frigate]

How to make an entity to stare constantly at the player?
I tried out the look_at_player behavior but it has some delay to it

[vernal vault]

I really want to learn how to code, everytime I try I just give up. What’s an easy way I can become a pro

[devout cairn]

Are we able to disable sword damage?

Any weapons matter of fact

I am basically going to do my own damage system

I got it! For anyone wondering:
player.json

"minecraft:attack": {
  "damage": -10000
}

[quiet ore]

Is there any chance of "block light level" getting added to the spawn rule components?

There's no way to make a custom mob actually spawn like vanilla monsters (light level up to 7, block light level 0)

[jaunty fog]

Block light level is hardcoded, cause Mojang

But it being added someday, I suspect yes cause they are trying to make spawning data driven (as far to make it customizable enough for any entity

[mental frigate]

How to make an entity to stare constantly at the player?
I tried out the look_at_player behavior but it has some delay to it

[glossy yew]

1. The short follow_range limits all of the max_dist values you are using.
2. I think you are not using minecraft:behavior.defend_trusted_target correctly. I am not even sure it is possible for a mob to trust any mob other than a player.

[glossy yew]

Did you try 1.0 for the probability parameter?

[glossy yew]

Yes, you can set player attack to whatever integer you want.

[glossy yew]

Did you check vanilla shulker.json?

[glossy yew]

Run an event with minecraft:on_target_acquired

[mental frigate]

yea, it is still has delay in it

also Nvm I solved it

[cobalt wren]

Hello everyone! I have a question. Is it possible to make a certain color of mob spawn in a specific biome?

[kind charm]

Yes.

[quiet ore]

Yes

Look at the sheep json

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/reference/source/vanillabehaviorpack_snippets/entities/sheep?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

[mental frigate]

What Does this mean?

[indigo sparrow]

ok thx! ill try it!

[merry lake]

Yeah but that adds a block hitbox which I don't want

[kind charm]

Use body rotation axis aligned

[merry lake]

Also if you use bridge v2, how do I import an addon in bridge v2?
The app resetted

[cobalt wren]

Isn't spawn mob configured not in spawn_rules?

[glossy yew]

I think you can use spawn rules to trigger a specific entity event based on biome filters, but you will still need to define the event inside the entity definition.

[vernal vault]

guys

why isn't my mobs head movign around when it's look at player

[lone egret]

iirc you need to use query in animation for that

[vernal vault]

oh

so im basically make a whole new animation?

for the query/state

[lone egret]

here's example from sample pack

{
    "format_version" : "1.8.0",
    "animations" : {
        "animation.common.look_at_target" : {
            "loop" : true,
            "bones" : {
                "head" : {
                    "relative_to" : {
                        "rotation" : "entity"
                    },
                    "rotation" : [ "query.target_x_rotation - this", "query.target_y_rotation - this", 0.0 ]
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

from cow.json

[vernal vault]

okay thank you i will look into this

[opaque coyote]

any way to fix transparency pixels not rendering ?

they appear opaque if the alpha value isn't low and appear completely transparent if alpha value hits a certain value

[indigo sparrow]

how is alphatest

wait maybe im a noob too much for this question

nvm

[wanton venture]

Is it possible to make mobs only spawn during daylight but not if there are torches or any other light block around?

[mental trench]

does anyone one have a behavior json of item frame?

or know something like a custom item frame?

[formal veldt]

there isnt one.

[mental trench]

ohh thanks

[formal veldt]

you will need to look into how entities render items in their hands

[formal veldt]

take a look at this
https://wiki.bedrock.dev/entities/entity-holds-item

[opaque coyote]

???

[boreal briar]

How do i make my entity spin like a animation

[charred cargo]

Rotate an entity 360 on the Y-axis in the animation

[opaque coyote]

please

[vague gale]

yo sup. Just wondering if there's a away to create an entity with the render distance of a ender dragon?

My goal is to create a visible zone for my BR game - Like from fortnite or apex.

[steel jasper]

Does anyone know where to find the copper golem client entity file? It's not on github yet

[kind charm]

It is. Check the preview branch.

[steel jasper]

AHH tysm!

So just renaming it, giving some new values for identifiers and it should work like a clone right? Or is there internal logic we can't access?

[formal veldt]

should work

[quiet ore]

If you add the skeleton/zombie/spider/or creeper runtime identifiers that may do it

They enforce the block light level 0 spawn rule

[charred cargo]

Sadly, no
I've seen the question asked many times but no actual solution exists to my knowledge
The best you can do is make an entity with high simulation distance as opposed to render distance
The Simulation distance of an entity is how far away an entity can be without despawning
It can be increased by using the minecraft:persistent component

[vernal vault]

Is there a way i can make my walk animation speed slow down or speed up to match the speed of the actual entity?

[vernal vault]

because my mob is fast but it has a relitevly slow acceleration and i want the animation to slowly speed up as well

[charred cargo]

Use anim_time_update to to control the speed of the animation by multiplying the default statement query.anim_time + query.delta_time and multiplying it by another number to change it's speed

Mixing this with the value that query.ground_speed gives of an entity's speed this can be used to create a statement that increases the speed similar to this:

query.anim_time + query.delta_time * num * query.ground_speed

[rigid kiln]

¿how can i make that an entity activates a event when it recives damage ammount?

¿custom mount animation?

[wanton venture]

Can we make an animation play when a trade is successful?

I created a custom villager, and I would like to play an animation when the player successfully trades with it and another when the player attempts to trade but fails.

[vernal vault]

Okay I’m not going to lie I don’t understand this that much, but I will try my best.

[vernal vault]

Where does the query.anim_time + query.delta_time * num * query.ground_speed go?

[charred cargo]

anim_time_update

num is just a number, btw

[vernal vault]

I meant what file

[charred cargo]

Just in the animation

I can give an example of where it can go

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

[vernal vault]

okay i did exactly this

ill give results in a minute

[charred cargo]

Don't do it
That was an example

[charred cargo]

I gave you that as a way to understand the layout
It should still be in the format of this

[vernal vault]

ohhh okay

yeah i was about to comment now there's no run animation playing 😭

[charred cargo]

I can't do it exactly for you because I don't have the animation or know how quick you want it to be (and you also don't learn that way)

[vernal vault]

so i just change the number after the slash right

[vernal vault]

yeah i understand, i really appreciate your assistance

[charred cargo]

That's cause you made the animation 100000 times slower 😭 🤣

[vernal vault]

aw man 😭

[charred cargo]

Try this one

[vernal vault]

??

[charred cargo]

!query.is_sprinting ? query.anim_time + query.delta_time * 6.5 * query.ground_speed : query.anim_time + query.delta_time * 10 * query.ground_speed

[vernal vault]

i paste it in the same "anim_time_update" right?

replace the old one?

[charred cargo]

Yup

[vernal vault]

okay i will test this out

[charred cargo]

👍

[vernal vault]

omg it works!

i just turn down the numbers a little bit and it is perfect

thank you so much man you're amazing

[charred cargo]

No problem
Happy to help👍

[boreal wyvern]

Does Anyone know what wrong with this error

[lunar ruin]

is trader exp different from exp?

[charred cargo]

Your question is quite unclear
There is no animation controller usage shown
There is also no error shown, no animation controller shown, no problem shown
The issue you haven't described/shown any proof of the existence of said issue leads anyone who wishes to help you to believe that they can't help since we can't find a problem
Basically, give proof of all the things you didn't mention but are having a problem with

[boreal wyvern]

i dont know how to describe it but basically when i add animation controller to player and i playanimation to play another animation it crashes the animation. like the two pictures i just sent above the model's sword is skewed to one side when adding animation controller

[charred cargo]

Could the problem be caused by 2 animations playing at the same time?
Test it out in blockbench by playing 2 animations simultaneously and see if the error occurs

[boreal wyvern]

play those 2 animations on block bench it's completely different, but here only the sword is tilted to one side

[lunar ruin]

how does server do this?

like they get my skin

[frank cipher]

Anyone ran into an issue with entities only rotating facing the horizon. The entity does not look up or down when forced with a tp. I feel like its probably something pretty simple.

The entity does not have any animations and is an invisible entity primarily used as a marker so it's pretty sparce with components.

[charred cargo]

That's the problem

"Does not have any animations"

Use the look_at_target animation to make the entity look at targets

[worthy hinge]

How do I make an entity looking like a block always automatically rotate so that it matches the other blocks in the world?

[kind charm]

Use the body rotation align axis component

[worthy hinge]

Why does this not work?

{
  "format_version": "1.8.0",
  "animations": {
    "animation.block.setup": {
      "rotation": [0,
            "-q.body_y_rotation + (Math.round(q.body_y_rotation / 90) * 90)",
            0]
    }
  }
}```

Says rotation is invalid child

[neat sky]

It doesn't have the bone name that is rotated

[frank cipher]

Are scripts like getBlockromViewDriection() based on bone rotation of “Head” or something.

[worthy hinge]

It's meant to be rotating the entire thing

I mean its just one bone

[neat sky]

then the entire thing needs to have a root bone that is rotated

[frank cipher]

Thanks for your response though, I’ll try it.

[charred cargo]

I guarantee you this is the literal answer

To answer the other question:

It's based on the crosshair of the player when used on the player
But for entities it on the rotation value

[worthy hinge]

Ty

[charred cargo]

Cause the animation converts the value of the direction the entity is looking at into a variable that is read by the resource pack and set as the rotation of the entity

[frank cipher]

Ok thanks.

[worthy hinge]

What is the error? Resource/animations/animation.one.setup.json: js { "format_version": "1.8.0", "animations": { "animation.one.setup": { "bones": [{ "valid_bone_name": { "rotation": [0, "-q.body_y_rotation + (Math.round(q.body_y_rotation / 90) * 90)", 0] } }] } } } valid_bone_name is the only and a valid bone name from the entity.)

[Oh wait I guess I see it] Nevermind please help me

[vast bluff]

This is what I use -

                    "rotation": {
                        "0.0": [
                            0,
                            "math.round(query.body_y_rotation/90)*90-query.body_y_rotation",
                            0
                        ]
                    }
                }```

I think you are just missing the 0.0 timestamp for the animation

[vernal vault]

how do i make my skeleton light other mobs on fire when it itself is on fire

[worthy hinge]

It works ty

Why does it say sonething with scripts/animate though I haven't even added it? js { "format_version": "1.8.0", "minecraft:client_entity": { "description": { "identifier": "bb:one", "scripts": { "scale": "1" }, //... "animations": { "setup": "animation.one.setup" } } } }

[charred cargo]

Why do you censor the pictures all the time

[worthy hinge]

Because of unnecessary information

[charred cargo]

But that's just unnecessary effort

[worthy hinge]

I mean I put 7 hours today into making one entity

And it seems like I can't even follow the tutorial on the wiki

[charred cargo]

Besides you censoring "unnecessary information" isn't all that correct since some of the things you censor (in specific circumstances) are the actual problem

[worthy hinge]

The things I censor on the screen are just texture bugs of other blocks/entites

[charred cargo]

I mean in a different hypothetically situation
In case of future need

For example:
Incorrect json anywhere in an item.json file can result in a missing texture icon

But you might hide the item.json's code almost entirely apart from the icon component

[worthy hinge]

Yes, but here the error is situated in the parts of the file I sent

[charred cargo]

Which would result in a harder time getting help

[worthy hinge]

At least the console log says it

[charred cargo]

I know but hypothetically, in case of future need

[worthy hinge]

Yesss

I get it

[worthy hinge]

Question from PriorMentation

[worthy hinge]

And my problem.

[charred cargo]

Make a script

[charred cargo]

Try:
Removing the scripts area entirely
Changing the format version to 1.10.0
Try both separately and then together and see what works

[worthy hinge]

Thanks, it works if I remove the "size" and change it to 1.10

[vast bluff]

Anyone know the best solution for aquatic mobs and gravity? vanilla fish are set to false, but if you do that, custom fish float off when hit out of water.

[vernal vault]

Let me know if you find a solution

[vernal vault]

I have no idea how to script yet, the component “can_spread_on_fire”: true doesn’t work but I’m pretty sure that’s because I have the delayed attack component and that’s a component I need and would rather use

I might just have to ask AI 💔😭

[vast bluff]

As far as i can tell, setting gravity to true works. They still swim correctly, and don't float off when out of water

[distant bobcat]

Can we not fix haste removing swing effect while mining or pvping

(mainly I need it for mining)

[charred cargo]

AI usually doesn't help with minecraft very well

[vernal vault]

Sigh, I’ll just save that for later when I learn how to script, btw I have a question Lightning how long have you been coding/modding

[charred cargo]

I've been doing it very seriously for the past year
But I have in total been doing so for about 3-4 years, why do you ask?

[vernal vault]

Just curious, I’m fairly new (I’m on my first week). I’ve tried coding many times before but I always give up, this time I want to take it serious. I just want to get an idea of how long it’ll take until I get the hang of all of this, and you seem like a really good experienced coder, where you say you learned the majority of the stuff you know?

[distant bobcat]

^ or if someone knows how to make custom swing animation?

[charred cargo]

The wiki, the microsoft docs, and this server
The wiki is more helpful to me, but the docs are more knowledgeable
The wiki is meant more for niche topics in some areas as opposed to the docs which are just (meant to be) everything that is possible

[slow remnant]

Hi, anyone know how to pin an entity to the players screen?

[charred cargo]

What do you mean by "pin"

[slow remnant]

so that the entity is always within the screen

[charred cargo]

Teleport the entity to constantly be in front of the player

[slow remnant]

this is too rude

[charred cargo]

What do you mean by "too rude"

[slow remnant]

delay

[charred cargo]

Mine or yours?

[slow remnant]

Teleportation

[charred cargo]

You don't really seem to have any other options
Why do you want to do this?

[slow remnant]

I want to use the entity as a screen

[charred cargo]

You'd be better off making custom UI or using an attachable and a piece of armor or an item in the offhand

[slow remnant]

i want to use entity as screen because in first person the player color is not updated but other entities color is yes as you can see in the video

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1271123311300055051/1410257538141786132/fr.mp4?ex=68b05c2e&is=68af0aae&hm=592bc38cc6071d2c32abb354813e8f0864cc2d136f0334d8b7ab1aa4ffe74bc9&

[charred cargo]

Well,

• 1. Besides teleportation you have 0 viable options
• 2. You could just animate the attachable texture/use a render controller to do the rainbow animation

[slow remnant]

This is the shader I use "rainbow animation" to show that the player is not updating

But thx

[charred cargo]

Sorry I couldn't be of anymore assistance, but this is sadly just how bedrock is sometimes 😔

[slow remnant]

Yeah

[rich elk]

Did you ever figure this out?

[random slate]

Oh yeah. Put it inside a block and make sure its collision is smaller than the blocks’s collision.

[wanton venture]

How can I play an animation when a mob gets tamed?

[kind charm]

I would use the tame_event in the tameable component to trigger a playanimation likely.

[wanton venture]

That’s a good idea

Thanks!!

[dim nova]

Does anyone know a way for a mob to only pick up items that are in its inventory?

[kind charm]

See the allay?

[dim nova]

Yeah, but it picks up items that are in its mainhand. I was wondering if it was possible to do that for the inventory.

[atomic jewel]

Hey dudes, i have a little problem. I made a animation for this thng. I have the anim controllers with the requiered animation. But how do i structure the entity file in the RP?

[vernal vault]

my entity picks up swords but doesn't equip them/use them, it equips armor but it doesnt fit

[rigid kiln]

i'd like to have someone that is an expert of the scripting API that helps me with the Engines in this addon, both engines doesn't have the Minecrart Runtime, but the Trains Addon E2 works perfectly in the tracks with manual speed changes and rotating to the track direction, but my Thomas (the bug one) only can moves in the tracks but it bounces in them and he doesn't rotates to the track direction.

¿someone could tell me what scripts works to replicate the behaviour of the E2 in my Thomas?

[covert sphinx]

it is

like piglins i assume?

[dim nova]

No, I meant if it has a certain item in its inventory, it would try to pick up items of the same type that it finds, and would also be compatible with modded items.
Piglins have a set array of items that they want to pick up, defined in their entity file.

[covert sphinx]

oh well then that's not easy to implement

[vernal vault]

Is there any wayi can decrease the size of the sword? like baby zombies

[tawny kettle]

Can you set MoLang variables on Entities from Bedrock scripts?

[kind charm]

No.

[tawny kettle]

Damn. Can you get the value of an entity property from within molang, then?

I need to modify the visuals of an entity

that entity uses a molang variable currently to affect said visual

but if I can use a property to do the same thing, that'd be more helpful

q.property... good.

[steel jasper]

Does anyone know what the star geometry is?

[kind charm]

Its when hes in the star pose.

[steel jasper]

OH LMAO ok, thanks haha

[tawny kettle]

Sorry to ask so many questions: I got the properties working, now is there a way to set an entity's texture based on the value of a property?

Check the vanilla cow, pig, chicken.

[tawny kettle]

Thanks

[tawny kettle]

Second to last question, are entity properties able to take strings, or is it only enums?

I want a property I can set as any string.

[kind charm]

Enums only, it cant be a dynamic string.

[tawny kettle]

That's... unfortunate, but not unexpected.

Shame, because then I could just set the texture name straight from a script

But, I could stick those names in the enum I suppose

When using q.property on an enum, does it return as a string, or an int?

[kind charm]

string.

[tawny kettle]

Good, thanks.

[halcyon pawn]

so, im trying to make piglin thorw healing potions at undead and other harmed piglins, it works with undead mobs, but for some reason it doesnt throw any projectile if the target is other piglin

any idea why?

[crimson pumice]

it would probably throw at it's self so there is most likely a hard coded prevention for that

how do i make equipment drop from a mob 100% of the time

                    "table": "loot_tables/entities/pillager_captain_equipment.json"
                },
          "drop_chance": 100
            },```

idk if i remember it correctly but it goes like this

lemme check

          "table": "loot_tables/entities/pillager_captain_equipment.json",
          "slot_drop_chance": [
            {

ah i thought eat whole block bruh

Only if they removed it without saying anything, since it was added in 1.21.90 and its documentation is still active

Is it possible to make an enderman style mob that looks for a safe place when it is under the rain?

I made a mob that teleports and takes water damage like the enderman, but when it comes into contact with water it remains still taking damage until it dies, it does not teleport like the enderman.

[covert sphinx]

maybe by using the runtime identifier of the enderman

since its probably hardcoded

[strong tide]

Ah, if that's the case, I can't use it, I don't have permission, the only way is to stay with this limitation

[covert sphinx]

so you're a marketplace dev?

hmmmmm

[strong tide]

Yea

[covert sphinx]

i got an alternative if u want

to know

i was thinking of making it work like how foxes find cover

minus the sleeping/napping aspect

[strong tide]

And what would that be like?

[covert sphinx]

like when it finds a cave or a building it'll detect if the entity is in underground.

and then set it as its spawn point.

so when it gets hit by the rain, it teleports into that spot

[strong tide]

Oh yea

[haughty pine]

Does anyone know how to change this? this is an inventory of an entity

[formal veldt]

you have to edit the lang entry

but this will change every single unknown entity inventory name.

[haughty pine]

is there no way to change for each entity?

[formal veldt]

I would suggest if so

[haughty pine]

yeah?

[formal veldt]

?

[haughty pine]

oh, i meant, is there no way to have each inventory have its own name?

like each entity?

does naming the entity change it?

[formal veldt]

I know.

im telling you no

sadly not possible right now

[haughty pine]

oh i didnt get what you meant by this

sorry

okay, got it

so to change the unknown what would i do?

[formal veldt]

I would suggest something if so

[haughty pine]

yes, i am all ears

[formal veldt]

what

[haughty pine]

suggest

[formal veldt]

if so

[haughty pine]

😭

oh

bruh

i am just bad at texts

[formal veldt]

meaning, if I had an answer, I would tell you lol

[haughty pine]

😭

this is embarassing

okay

[haughty pine]

Unknown=SOME NAME?

like so?

in lang

[formal veldt]

let me find the name

brb

[haughty pine]

okie, let me know where u found it also, so that i learn how to look up things

[formal veldt]

in that case, you need to download the bedrock samples

https://github.com/Mojang/bedrock-samples/releases/tag/v1.21.100.6

pretty sure it's entity.unknown.name=Unknown

[haughty pine]

got it

thank you :)

[formal veldt]

np, sorry for the confusion

lol

[haughty pine]

also, is there a way to make nametags not visible when looking at an entity?

[haughty pine]

as this works

[formal veldt]

it does not

[formal veldt]

no to this aswell

[haughty pine]

umm

[formal veldt]

well actually, it does

[haughty pine]

i just tried

yeah

😭

[formal veldt]

my bad

[haughty pine]

no issue

[haughty pine]

:(

welp

anyways

this sucks

thanks tho

[formal veldt]

alot of things suck

np

[tawny kettle]

I take it that the answer is no. Maybe changing the rotation speed is possible?

[formal veldt]

teleportation should fix that problem.

ofc if the entity is moving it'll be weird

[safe drum]

possible with script api
//check if looking at the entity
entity.nameTag = ""

[haughty pine]

But i want them to have a nametag

doesnt this remove the nametag?

i said not visible, not comepletely change it

[safe drum]

well, you set it again..

if (!lookingAtEntity) {
entity.nameTag = "my Custom NameTag"
}

[tulip dome]

how to add display name to entity?

[mental trench]

Does anyone encounter, entities not facing the right direction or angle when spawned?

[rich hinge]

How can I make an entity visible only to a certain player and invisible to others

[charred cargo]

You could use a script with playAnimation and use the players syntax to detect which players can see the animation play
The animation in question would just reduce the scale of the entity to 0

[rich hinge]

Could you expand on that please?

[charred cargo]

There's not too much to expand on so the best thing to do would be to show an example

entity.playAnimation('animation.entity.name', {
    players: player
})```

[rich hinge]

So this animation will reduce the enitity scale to 0 so it won't be visible to those players, right?

[charred cargo]

Where player is a constant representing all the players that can see the entity

[charred cargo]

Yes

[rich hinge]

I see. Thanks a lot!

[charred cargo]

Nope, it must have the rideable component in its behaviour

[strong tide]

If I add this behavior and do this command and then remove the behavior would they still be mounted?

[charred cargo]

Potentially, but why?

[vale mantle]

Does it have correct folders?

Like.
Body: bones of the body

Front legs: bones for front leg
Front feet: bones for front feet
Etc etc

You can animate it once you have the bones in folders/groups

[karmic marsh]

Well, the folders are organized like this.

How does delay_filter actually work?

If I have

        "minecraft:delay_filter": {
          "min": 100,
          "max": 400,
          "spawn_chance": 25
        }

Does that mean that:

100 seconds since last spawn, the entity cannot spawn

Between 100 and 400 seconds since last spawn, the filter has a 75% chance to block the spawn

After 400 seconds since last spawn, the filter has no effect until the entity spawns

[dark niche]

Pretty sure you're right

Every time a spawn happens for any rule that uses the same identifier

That timer is updated

Subsequent spawn attempts that also pass all other conditions are then blocked by this timer

[quiet ore]

It seems like the filter is broken

I get an error that it's missing an identifier

If I put the identifier in, I still get the error

😢

Can I take a look at your JSON?

[golden sand]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhh (is there any work around for making a entity spawn with a animation?)

[covert sphinx]

ye

you don't need to put " in the animation string btw

in the playanimation that is in the queue_command.

do it like this:

-# "playanimation @s animation.amogus.sus a 0 query.is_moving"

[charred cargo]

You could also just try changing the "" at the beginning to ' ' instead

is it possible to have 2 animations transition between another so its like smooth and not like it just switch to another

can someone help w this?

I've thought of the same before but it doesn't work

[rain egret]

Yes, I guessed it, in queue the quotes don't work, it's best to make a function

[covert sphinx]

yup

[charred cargo]

Make an animation controller

[lunar ruin]

thats what I did

what I mean is like a smooth transition

[charred cargo]

I know
Then add "blend_transition"

what part? sorry theres no blend transition in the bedrock addon docs

actually i'll just check the minecraft docs

Any way to make an Entity's textures fullbright without first having to make the PNG transparent?

[tawny kettle]

Basically I just need some kind of fullbright material that doesn't need alpha as an input.

[charred cargo]

The png is meant to be translucent not transparent (extremely minor technicality), but there is a way
In the render controller you can put "ignore_lighting": true and it will make the entity look like it uses the entity_emissive_alpha material

[tawny kettle]

Thanks

Yeah, that worked.

[charred cargo]

No problem 👍

[sterile flint]

@kind charm Sorry to bother you again. I've testes the invisible method and it works, but for some reason, every time a player joins the world, it gives the invisible effect, even if the components are in fact inside a component group (and it's not triggered on spawn). Is that normal?

[meager viper]

How do I make a custom projectile pick it up from the custom projectile item and not an arrow?

[charred cargo]

Does Vibrant Visuals work on attachables or only regular items?

Nvm, wrong channel lmao

[meager viper]

When I remove runtime, it becomes a normal entity and loses its values.

You shouldnt be using runtimes anyways.

[meager viper]

what can i use?

Use the projectile component.

[vale mantle]

Anyone know how to make an entity detect if it's been hit by any projectile?

I am tempted to cheat and just make it run an execute command that if in entity is at a long range from it, it would just activate the event to deflect range attacks, but that's too easy

@kind charm hello! I'm sorry again but I can't find the reason why this is happening 🙁

[lost jungle]

is it possible to have an anchor or target in the entity's model for the player when they ride the entity?

Similar to having a lead anchor for entities so you can attach the lead in a specific spot and even move with the bones of the entity.
Would there be a way to add one for the player so that they can move with the entity as well?

Or is it strictly a set offset in the json code and you wont be able to move the player riding the mob while it is doing animation?

For example, if you have a mount that bounces, or shifts side to side while moving.
It would be nice if the player moves with the mount and not awkwardly clip through the mount as it moves.

[golden sand]

am i cooked when i literally need a function for my entity to attack properly

[vale mantle]

Wdym?

[sterile flint]

Guys, is it true that there's absolutely no way to disable lightning damage to the player?

[covert sphinx]

damage sensors.

[lost jungle]

what is it you want your entity to do?
Are you using the usual attack behaviour?
Are you asking about the attack animation?

It helps to know the context of things.

Namely what you were trying to do, what you expected to happen, what happens instead and what you need help with to fix the issue.

[magic crystal]

Is it possible to play sound in an animation but with a pitch?

[covert sphinx]

yes

how play sound works:

/playsound mob.sus.amogus

the first number should be the number of the volume.

meanwhile the second number arranges the pitch

[magic crystal]

yes I know playsound does that but im talking about just an animation

[golden sand]

i wanted my entity do use minecraft:behavior.delayed_attack to attack (but it didnt work) and only broke my entity further

[lost jungle]

alright.
Can they attack at all?

Meaning remove the code and see if they attack at all.
Sometimes it helps to see if other parts of the code works and narrow down the part where the code doesn't

If it is the minecraft:behavior.delayed_attack component, the solution can be solved.
But if we dont know if other parts of the code has issues, the problem is much harder to rule out.

[golden sand]

imma see

[lost jungle]

if it also helps. try looking at the ravager's json as a reference.
This component is part of their code and it may help see how it works,

[golden sand]

do you know which format_version the behavior.delayed_attack works better?

[golden sand]

and they cant attack at all tho

[lost jungle]

it is best to figure out how to get them to attack and then see about adding other things.

That is what I would do.
(make a backup copy) strip the code down to the basics and work on it in pieces.

As for the version.
1.21.90 seems to be best.
here is the ravager for reference
https://github.com/ZtechNetwork/MCBVanillaBehaviorPack/blob/master/entities/ravager.json

[golden sand]

ok thanks

[storm forum]

hii everyone
could anyone tell me whats the best way to initialize a molang variable on an entity?

[misty marten]

how can I do a projectile with same physics as vanilla arrows without runtime_identifier?

[misty marten]

using initialize on client entity (?

[hazy crater]

you can't without the runtime 😭

maybe try to find the arrow json file but idk if you'll find it

[misty marten]

Even using the same values, it is not the same

[hazy crater]

why you don't wann use the runtime_identifier ?

[golden sand]

does anything changes if the behavior.delayed_attack is on components?

[lost jungle]

Based on the description and how the Ravager uses it.
The attack action is delayed so that it lines up with the animation better.

So instead of outright damaging the player like a zombie when it touches the player with the animation quickly playing right after.
The attack action is delayed. This is used to let the animation play first and the attack happens a little bit later.

Bedrock has this to match the delay in Java.

[nova plume]

attachable?

[wispy forge]

im doing a skydiving animation and it blends between third person, to the one ive made

but it only blends the first time

idk if anythings wrong with it

hmm actually i may have figured it out

[nova plume]

alr

[wispy forge]

just gonna confirm before hand, but if it never gets to the transition to go back to default state, could that cause the blend to not run?

[nova plume]

you have a bone named "body"?

[wispy forge]

yeah no mention of body very strange

just root and arms/legs

[nova plume]

i don't see anything wrong with your transition

[wispy forge]

yeah, I mean it uses its own custom root, so unless because it snaps back to default root, the blend never even ended so its stuck on that first transition perhaps? honestly no clue but amma just build it into the default root

yeah fixed it thanks for the help anyways, just needed to all be in the root

[strong tide]

I love when I'm ignored

[charred cargo]

You can make a custom geometry and texture on the entity that is controlled by either animations or render_controllers using the query query.is_item_name_any to detect what item is equipped and where

[unreal galleon]

Why not make it an attachable? Mobs support attachables too because they can hold stuff

[unreal galleon]

Using pivot and bone name

If you put your armor model under "head" bone, the armor rotates exactly the same way the player head would

[charred cargo]

Not in preexisting armors

You cant make custom designs armor on vanilla armor like that

[strong tide]

But which location is used to add the armor? Which bone?

[strong tide]

But in terms of position? Is it placed in a bone with a specific name?

[unreal galleon]

position it however u like

[strong tide]

But is it given any name?

the mob has 2 bones, in the whole body, one for the base texture and another for the mummy's stripes

So would it be possible for me to put an extra bone where the armor would be? That's why I wanted to know if there is a bone with a selected name that the game puts the armor on.

[unreal galleon]

yes you can put whatever bones you like with whatever names you want it to be

just make sure to put it under a "head" bone

if its a helmet, put it under head bone

if its a chestplate, put it under the waist bone

[strong tide]

Oh yea, So the game will choose this bone for the armor without considering the others?

The leggings seem to be fighting with the pants part

[unreal galleon]

It doesn't choose it for armor alone, but it understands that it is the "head" part of the player

[strong tide]

So in this case, the head is used as a default to define all the armor? So to solve this, I just have to make the head bigger?

[unreal galleon]

?? no just put your armor bones under a bone named "head"

[strong tide]

But I don't have any bones for armor, I just activated the attachable

[drowsy swift]

well, is there any way to detect if the player is inside a house or not? similar to villagers or something

[neat sky]

Your explode event is triggered by the timer instead of by impact. Here is an example from the vanilla fireball
"minecraft:projectile": { "on_hit": { "impact_damage": {"damage": 6,"knockback": false,"semi_random_diff_damage": false}, "definition_event": { "affect_projectile": true, "event_trigger": { "event": "minecraft:explode", "target": "self" } } }, "power": 1.6,"gravity": 0.00,"inertia": 1,"liquid_inertia": 1,"uncertainty_base": 0,"uncertainty_multiplier": 0,"anchor": 2,"offset": [ 0, -1.5, 0 ],"reflect_on_hurt": true,"catch_fire": true }

[steep swift]

Hi, I need someone to help me with the controller animations that have the following: idle, walk, run, attack (4 different attacks) and animations for certain entity variants

[smoky jay]

Is it possible to alter v.index to add extra cow, pig and chicken variants?

[kind charm]

You need to modify the BP and the RP

[smoky jay]

Not possible using RP only?

[kind charm]

No.

[unreal galleon]

Are there any ragdoll physics that look good? I found one but it was very glitchy and old

If not, then I got another question
During animations, I use math.Random() but I want to store the value generated from it and modify that value. I know this has sth to do with using variable. but I don't know how to modify that variable while the animation is running?

[smoky jay]

How about adding 2 cold variants?

[kind charm]

Still have to edit the BP and RP since it won't persist on reload.

[storm forum]

is there a way to make an entity dismount another entity?

for example, the way the minecraft parrot dismounts when the player moves too fast, I looked at the bedrock-samples, couldn't find anything about it

[jaunty fog]

Iirc running /ride on the entity could dismount mob (/ride stop_riding)

[drowsy swift]

umm, "minecraft:timer":{"time":0,"looping":true}, inside player.json will cause lots of lag?

sorry for the ping btw

[hazy crater]

so I'm making a tank, I took inspiration from Sir Sherman's code but the entity projectile isn't spawning. Can someone check it ?

[steep swift]

Can someone help me put an animation on an entity variant?

[indigo ether]

how can i make an entity walk through webs with normal speed like spiders?

[proud viper]

Is it still possible to add that entity highlight? Like the border around them? I've attached an example

[charred cargo]

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1327317984338776189

I don't know if that would work for me because im using the title generator plugin on bedrock to make my model

[charred cargo]

Try this, then, if you're unsure
https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1390497995270918307

Im trying to run an animation controller on a entity via scripting but its not wanting to work, the controller works if I use it in the animate in the rp entity but I cant get it to run via scripting or the command. Can anyone help?

[topaz falcon]

when i export my entity to mc bedrock then the head disappears and the animations i made for it dont work

im using minecraft entity wizard btw

why is the animation kinda sketchy even tho it shows really well in blockbench?

[hazy crater]

because your entity moves too fast

[mint gyro]

Ohhh

So i jus have to speed up the animation?

[hazy crater]

or slow down ur mob

[mint gyro]

But even so why isnt the head moving with the body

[hazy crater]

it does it's just barely noticable

[mint gyro]

Even in the idle animation too

@hazy crater

im sending the vid

[hazy crater]

huh idk this one looks good

[mint gyro]

wdymmmm

the head stays the same place

its supposed to go forward with its torso

[hazy crater]

does your model have the right bones names ?

[mint gyro]

probably

tho names shudnt matter here since i animated them-

like with the original geo

otherwise wudnt work in blockbench

[hazy crater]

check ur model anyway

[mint gyro]

ive checkde

everything is linked

[hazy crater]

huh idk 💀

[mint gyro]

yup

[mint gyro]

nvm now i got why it was like that

[hazy crater]

why ?

[mint gyro]

I accidentaly put animation keyframes to positions at 0 seconds too so the positions stayed the same

[quiet ore]

I have a bear with randomized variants on spawn

What's the best way to make it so the herd is all the same variant?

ok just need to rant here

why are true/false no longer valid values and we have to use "yes" or "no"

      "minecraft:damage_sensor": {
        "triggers": [
          {
            "cause": "fall",
            "deals_damage": "no"
          },
          {
            "cause": "projectile",
            "damage_multiplier": 0.5
          }
        ]
      },

Whyyy? This is so stupid

[safe drum]

Uh had the same confusion. Assuming your using VSCode extensions like blockception to get typings?
Cuz when i type "yes" or "no" cuz of the typings, They actually don't work, So I tried and true/false works perfectly.

[quiet ore]

I had an entity that used true/false, but after updating to format 1.21.90 if now expects "yes" or "no"

I don't use any typings, but I'll take a look at block ception

[safe drum]

Wait, yeh it depends on format version...

I checked yeah, "yes", "no" is also valid

[safe drum]

true and false works for
format version: "1.13.0"

[unreal galleon]

Is it possible to do a one way mirror?

[charred cargo]

In vibrant visuals? Yes
You need to cubes in front of each other. One will be the reflective surface and the other placed right behind it and make as a rough material instead

[unreal galleon]

I was hoping to get it working for all

[charred cargo]

Do you mean all of minecraft when you say "all"

[unreal galleon]

All graphic qualities

[charred cargo]

Rtx is already reflective compatible, so long as you dont mean vanilla, it's possible

Anyone encounter behavior.random_stroll messing with ridable entity behavior?

minecraft:behavior.panic (priority 1, babies only)

minecraft:behavior.hurt_by_target (priority 1, wild & trusting states)

*just have to remove random stroll when the entity is ridden using the rider enter/exit events

The horse runtime identifier handles this, so that's why the horse doesn't need this workaround

[hazy crater]

I want my rideable entity to move forward in a straight line automatically without the player touching the joystick. This forward movement should only be executed when the entity has a certain tag. pls help

[charred cargo]

Use applyKnockback

[hazy crater]

how do I do that

[charred cargo]

In scripting

[hazy crater]

huh

[charred cargo]

Have a look around the discord for how applyKnockback works and if you'd like I can send a link to the documentation

[hazy crater]

i don't know a thing about scripting

[charred cargo]

Then you'll want to learn how

[tropic quartz]

how can I add a lightningbolt skill/ability to my mob using addOn maker or script

[modern hawk]

how do i reference a bone from a geometry? like if I wanted to get the core bone of geometry.cosmetic_render, can I do like geometry.cosmetic_render:core?

[vale mantle]

Do mormal bones still work if it's like, connected or segmented?
Like adding extra bones in the arms so they can actually twist n stuff, but still move the arm as a whole for other animations

[wanton oar]

How can I make an entity play an animation and loop forever

Hello, I have a problem: players in my creative world fly very fast (than new players). I think it comes from the player json. I used "minecraft:damage_sensor": {

[steel jasper]

Does anyone know what makes the TNT entity flash? I could switch textures but that feels like a bad solution?

[vale mantle]

Is it changing of color value? Though it might be because it turns into an entity of sorts when ignited

[vale mantle]

Helloo, can I change identifier to warden to make the sound detecting components work?

[vestal lichen]

I think it's an animation or with a render controller

[formal veldt]

you can replicate it with an animated flipbook texture.

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/visuals/animated-entity-texture

[steel jasper]

OH true, thanks!

[unreal galleon]

I have gun attachbles but the issue is that it’s pretty difficult to animate gun holding and reloading with the gun model having a separate animation than the player model

Should I add my gun as one of the geometries in player.entity.json and add a normal player animation instead?

[covert sphinx]

yes

you can add both models in blockbench

but first u gotta make a generic model

then add the models one by one

so animating will be easier.

[unreal galleon]

Ah so for each gun, I add humanoid model that includes the gun bones and cubes

[covert sphinx]

yes

[unreal galleon]

What about the texture of the gun? How can I apply it?

to the gun only

[covert sphinx]

with the humanoid model already included or no

[unreal galleon]

with the humanoid yes

[covert sphinx]

hmmmmm

[unreal galleon]

but i dont wanna override the player’s skin

[covert sphinx]

make a new texture.

then it'll mix the texture of the gun

and the player

[unreal galleon]

okay awesome

[covert sphinx]

just dont import it lol

[unreal galleon]

Btw do you know how I can change the player's q.variant?

[covert sphinx]

no but u can use other stuff like entity properties

or mark_variant

[unreal galleon]

how do I change that in behavior pack?

the json ui documentation doesnt have detailed info about behavior pack

is there another documentaiton I can check?

[covert sphinx]

[echo wraith]

Any help on this trying to have the name display in the top left do I need a script I don’t want it to say unknown I want it to say the mobs name

[steel jasper]

It's what the entity is named, like a nametag, and it doesn't update if you rename it while the container is open

[echo wraith]

It does if I rename it just trying to see if you can do it with out using a name tag

[steel jasper]

What I mean is, if you use .name to set it via scripting, it doesn't change till you re-open the container UI

[echo wraith]

I can send a picture of my mobs behavior it has nameable not sure what you mean by . name maybe I’m missing something

[steel jasper]

Sorry, in the scripting API, you can use <entity>.name to change mob names through scripts rather than doing it with nametags

[echo wraith]

I see will look into to it thanks

a fair boss u can say ig-

a bit hard but yea new items wud be there to balance it

( also me having to remake the entire mob cuz it was WAYYY too hard before { no knockback, 6 hearts of dmg at once, sonic boom, summoning lightning and stuff } )

( also reaches the speed of a literal race car so u cant outrun him- )

[vale mantle]

That's fair. I'd like to try it out when it's done ;D

whoaaa

oksss

its barely one biome mob tho

may take months since my exam is near

may i add u as a friend?

[vale mantle]

Sure, I don't mind.

[vale mantle]

Would it be per biome?

[mint gyro]

i can let u try as soon as i finish the first category if thats oka

category meaning a theme based around a custom biome

dw abt it

takes ages for me to get inspiration and ideas so i plan a lot before i start making it

What is it gonna be like

[mint gyro]

currently planning, your free to give me ideas btw

( i lowkey am 0% gud at ideas )

[mint gyro]

thanks to ya

[vale mantle]

Hellooo, I have question. Can multiple component groups that use timers work together and won't interfere with each other?

Dum idea I know, is midnight

[strange sentinel]

Maybe an aoe damage + animation + particle effects, such as punching the ground and deals damage to nearby entities with particles effect to visualize range and intensity

[mint gyro]

thas a gud one-

on it

wait i do have an animation already made

lemme test it in minecraft

update : fixed now

[gilded radish]

try setting entity's nameTag property is script to whatever you need, and in the entity json, add nameable component, and set always show to false

i'm not 100% sure that it'll work, but i think giving it a try would be better then nothing

[steep swift]

Does anyone know how I can define a custom creature as a monster? Meaning, when I set the game to peaceful, it disappears.

[gilded radish]

add "minecraft:remove_in_peaceful" component to your entity for it to disappear

[steep swift]

Does anyone know how to make it so that I can only ride an entity if it is tamed?

[gilded radish]

add rideable component only in the tamed component group

[steep swift]

Does anyone know how to add different animations to each variant of an entity, meaning that each variant has a different idle, walk?

[dusk ice]

Is there a way to make an entity through script, go to a specific block?

[rain egret]

Apply knockbacks to the entity until it reaches a point and then you can add more reference points to get it to the goal.

[wind spear]

Is there an issue with environment_sensor filtering? I was using a filter to test if the invisible custom entity was outside a custom block, but this update it stopped working. If the entity is in_block minecraft:air it adds a component that despawns itself

I dont have the json file with me at the moment, on pc at home

Prevents memory leak for invisible entities when getting summoned inside a block basically and something doesnt normally remove it....

The minecraft:air block doesnt seem to work i guess is the question

yes fixed

[next badge]

Ayyy, Good job there

[vernal vault]

How can I get an effect like this? The best way I can explain it with is inverse kinematics for the head. I'm not sure how'd I'd be able to do this

The dinosaur's neck turns with the head as it looks at the player

[charred cargo]

An animation that uses query.target_x_rotation and query.target_y_rotation on the neck with each bone being given a fraction of the query rotation

[bleak moat]

Yes! I am not home so ping or dm me but I believe I have a way

[mint gyro]

guys is there a way to play an animation ONLY when another animation is being played?

[vernal vault]

I will save this for later 🔥

[vernal vault]

I've done it before

What I did was make 2 different animation controllers for the 2 different animations and make them activate at the same time (use the same queries/variables for both animation/animation controllers)

[charred cargo]

But there is no way to actually detect specifically if an animation is playing

[mint gyro]

no i meant like...

an animation which wud not be played in case aside from when the mob is playin a specific animation

[mint gyro]

true

its kinda fixed now so its fine

@strange sentinel @vale mantle

1 ability complete

[vale mantle]

What's the ability?

[mint gyro]

the slamming one

he slams the ground and spikes form from below

and it would damage every entity within radius 15 and applies poison to them

[vale mantle]

That's cool

[serene bear]

Why won't these mobs take the item even though I've put this code?

"minecraft:behavior.pickup_items": {
  "priority": 1,
  "max_dist": 30,
  "goal_radius": 2,
  "speed_multiplier": 1,
  "pickup_based_on_chance": false,
  "can_pickup_any_item": true
},

[vivid valve]

how to make so entity cannot spawn from mob spawner?

[vernal vault]

Wait how do I make mobs spawn in custom sttrucutres

[heavy wraith]

So I was able to get the furnace minecart model and item icon load in the game.
Problem is in the item menu it does show in the construction menu at the bottom instead of being in the Minecarts group.
It is only placeable on rails, but when it is placed it hops up and down on the tracks.
When hit it acts like a mob rather than the minecart and isn't affected by power-rails either.
But it oddly can be picked up by a minecart and move around the tracks as any other minecart carrying a mob.
There is no way to open the furnace menu as well at the moment.
Just trying to get it to work like a normal minecart and variants on the tracks and when hit.
then can try to get the furnace to function. somehow.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

[mint gyro]

change the category of it to "items" and group to the minecart grp

[mint gyro]

do u have the inventory component?

[serene bear]

Yes, I was able to fix it myself earlier.

[heavy wraith]

@mint gyro Thank you and I tried what you said even though it was rather vague.
I was able to get the model and the item icon into the game. Again when placed it hops up and down on the rails. It also seems like minecart_animation.json had variables that I cannot seem to access. These are the rail variables that seem to track the position of the minecart when on rails so it always faces the proper way and moves along the tracks properly.
I tried for a while yesterday to get it to work but to no avail so far. Sadly
The variables are "variable.rail_offset.x (y or z)" and "variable.rail_rotation.x (y or z)"
These can end it x, y or z but the error says these x, y, and z variables are undefined.

[unreal galleon]

How is there no way to detect if player punched air or interacted with air??

[nova sail]

Is there a way to give entity variants specific loot tables? like the cold chicken vs the temperate, or the oxidized copper golem vs the others?

[mint gyro]

Sadly i dont know much about the variables and such since im new to modmaking myself

Ur welcomee btw

[potent tiger]

Anyone knows where i can learn more about entity projectiles? I search on Microsoft docs and bedrock Wiki but i cant found working samples or all components that i want?

[charred cargo]

Sometimes there isn't a component for what you want
Likelihood is that, I can only assume you've thoroughly absorbed the information held by both and, nothing (in terms of components) exists for what you want to create
A better idea would be to tell us what you wish to do and we can help find an alternative way to do it

There is no other real source of information besides the ones yiu have looked into

[nova sail]

anyone got some wisdom for me?

[potent tiger]

I was trying tô make like a fireball

I get the Wind charge template

But dont work

It dont explode

And it has Gravity and life

When i trow It Just fall and dont do nothing

[mint gyro]

u can check the vanilla projectile entities

u can learn a thing or 2 from there tbh

[strange sentinel]

It's getting better and so much effects, keep it up

[rocky shadow]

is their a component that allows larger slimes to spawn medium and smaller slimes when killed ?

[proud viper]

If i want to make an invisible entity, do I need to include a geometry, or can i leave the component out?

[proud viper]

you could use "minecraft:on_death" : {} to trigger an event that spawns slimes

[safe drum]

make a blank entity geometry and use it to make the entity invisible

[proud viper]

Thanks

[vale mantle]

Halo, anyone know how to make creatures float in air? I tried giving flight component group then removing it base on timer and making movement speed to 0 using another CG but no luck so far :L

[warm tendon]

You could set gravity to false in minecraft:physics. Youd also need to give it a knocbakc resistance of 1 or it would start going infinitely up if you hit it though

[vale mantle]

I see, okay, I'll try that

[rocky shadow]

can you run a commnd in that?

[formal veldt]

in any event, yes

[placid sun]

I am using the armor stand runtime identifier, and having it switch back to an armor stand is not ideal. Is it possible to detect when the entity is broken and have it change the armor_stand into the item?

Wait. That might be useful to me lmao

[mint gyro]

@strange sentinel @vale mantle i changed the particles that comes from phase 2 now and it looks like moths now instead of the eye damaging aura lmao and it looks wayyyy cleaner

[indigo ether]

why is my entity still taking fall damage while having this

"minecraft:damage_sensor": {
                "triggers": {
                    "cause": "all",

                    }
                }
            }

[rocky shadow]

ok next issue how do i define sounds for the mobs jumping,landing and hurt. im trying to just use the vanilla sounds but its giving me all kinds of errors when i do

[strong tide]

Try replacing "deals_damage": false with "deals_damage": "no"

[steep swift]

Does anyone know how I can put different attack animations in the melee attack?

[proud viper]

is the guide for entities equipping items outdated?

[heavy wraith]

Was finally able to get it working for the most part.
It can be placed on all rail types and turns properly when moving around the rails.
Still needs some fixes though.
Like lava destroying it and dropping its item like minecarts do.
I haven't tested tnt though.
I need to eventually try to add furnace interaction.
But I am learning as I go.

[true schooner]

woah

(that means peak)

[heavy wraith]

I can release the dev pack of it for others to test.

Any help would be great. https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1425693420453761105

[heavy wraith]

@kind charm fair enough.

@charred cargo
I see what you mean but I'm not posting to impress anyone. I legit was trying to get feedback.
I guess this could post in showcase eventually.

Right now been working on trying to add smoke particles to it but man that has been the hardest part so far.
I cannot seem to get the particles to work. I have the interaction working so it does take coal, charcoal, dried kelp, and blaze rods and does consume them.
Then activates the minecart:is_powered event consumes the item and played the ingite sound effect.
I am trying to get it to play the smoke particle effect when activated but again just can't get it. And the samples done even work in bridge.
The blaze animation controller says the effect and locator fields are wrong and that spell is needed but no matter what I put in the locator it refuses to work.

Do particles go in the animation file or the animation controller file? It's super confusing

[charred cargo]

Well then, first of all, I would like to politely apologise for the way that I portrayed my statement and for my misunderstanding

Second, particles can go in both IIRC, but I would highly reccomend putting them in the animation

[vale mantle]

Could you input vanilla particles into the animation?
Apologies if it's a dum question

[heavy wraith]

@charred cargo I do also apologize for the way I came off. A bit frustrated is all and can't seem to find anything on the topic to even lead me in the proper direction.
Using the samples they have animations all separate from animation controllers and if I try to copy say the blazes animation controller code to the animation file it just tossed a bunch of errors.
Right now I tried to delete the non working animation controller and just put the particle_effects code in the animation file but eveytime I do this I get this error
particle_effects | effect | child 'effect' not valid here.

First it was the locator problems then I added the locators into my geo model file and still it just don't work.
Not to mention I don't think my interact event is working as I just can't seem to test it with any events.
It makes the ignite sound and removes the item but cannot seem to test if the event even runs as it should.

[sterile flint]

Guys, is it posible to remove the red flash animation from an entity when it gets hit by something?

I mean, register the hit, but not playing the red flash animation and also prevent the knockback

[heavy wraith]

@sterile flint You can add this:

"minecraft:knockback_resistance": {
  "value": 1
},

to your enity behavior json for the knock back as for the red flash I cannot say. sorry

[sterile flint]

It looks like if I set to "no" in "deals_damage" in the "damage_sensor" component, the hit is registered but the red flash animation won't play (it won't take damage either, but that works for me)

Thanks!

formovement detection

i havent tested it

[indigo wedge]

please anyone know how to fix this?

[indigo wedge]

i have defined properties but it gives this error

[charred cargo]

You can
And, nah, the question isn't dumb since you can't use vanilla textures in texture paths and need them in your pack

[charred cargo]

I can see the where you're comming from
I do have examples of particles working in my own experiences so if you like an example feel free to ask

[fading elm]

the default value must be a literal true or false. You cannot use a Molang query like "query.had_component_group('glowing')" directly as a default. Molang queries are typically used in conditions and filters. use set_property events to change the property's value from false, to true, and use an Enviornment Sensor to detect.

[indigo wedge]

thanks
and also it was my fault i was naming folder entity instead of entities

[fading elm]

im not sure but i think there is/used to be an option for an condition query:
which if true then you could use an (is_alive) enviornment sensor which will run indefinitely and auto-check the query for the event

"tes:s": {
        //"condition": "q.property('my_namespace:is_glowing_active')",
        "remove": {
          "component_groups": ["my_namespace:glowing_effect_group"]
        },
        "set_property": {
          "my_namespace:is_glowing_active": false
        }
      },

[cursive geyser]

can i add rideable component to players

or is there any other way i can get an entity to follow a player

not through a tick loop or something because it wont be 100% accurately positioned

[heavy wraith]

@cursive geyser You could probably check the Parrot as it sits on the player's shoulder.
I think there is a ai behavior to follow as well but haven't delve into that yet sorry.

[heavy wraith]

@charred cargo Thank you and much appreciated.
Here are the relevant parts I have so far.

entity behavior file:

https://pastebin.com/NwFz4NJ7

entity resource file:

https://pastebin.com/C1sUnmby

animation file:

https://pastebin.com/dscMzXXh

[heavy wraith]

I had used component groups for on and off state using a timer but couldn't get that to work either.
No matter what event I put in the trigger nothing seems to happen to even test if the event is running when it should.
Goal was to give it a fuel source and then it begins smoking until the timer runs out.
As getting it to move with the limited API might not be feasible. Maybe with scripts but I haven't delved that deep yet.
Nothing I did seem to make the smoke particles even start.

Hey guys I am Making a mod so can u help me how can I add mods in game cause I am new in this

Guys, Is that true if I put the player health like this :
"minecraft:health": { "value": 100, "max": 100 }
And if the player got some damage the hunger bar will decrease soo fast to heal or just decrease like normal.

[vale mantle]

Run command is no longer usable, change with queue_command

[charred cargo]

I would reccomend creating a custom particle instead of relying on the default ones, gives you more control as a creator and some people experience problems when using the vanilla ones

If you would like help in doing so, I would be happy to help

Also, I'm unable to access the anination file

[mint gyro]

so this projectile entity i made, upon explosion it literally destroy even bedrock lmao. does anyone know to make it NOT destroy bedrock?

[formal veldt]

with scripts yes, if you query its bones to a property, you can override this property for specific clients.
https://stirante.com/script/server/2.2.0/classes/Player.html#setpropertyoverrideforentity
you cant do this with nametags though.

[cursive geyser]

yeah unfortunately that wont work then because nametags are the main reason im even making this lol

[formal veldt]

out of luck then

Lower the max resistance, iirc, set it to 0.2 or less
