#

the entity has the minecraft:projectile component, but the "power" value is ignored when summoned

#

im summoning it with an mcfunction, and afaict the summon command in bedrock edition doesnt have a way to add movement with NBT tags

With /summon it won’t have power. It only works if an entity shoots it or you use the spawn entity component in an entity. There probably is other exceptions that I am unaware of though.

#

i made sure the entity has "is_spawnable": true

#

nvm, i just didnt set the min, max_wait_time values so they defaulted to 300 and 600

teal rivet
#

so now the entity spawns, but it still isnt "shot"

#

it just falls to the ground, even when i set the power to 10

Can you send the projectile component?

#

dont mind the minecraft:explode event trigger, i set fuse_lit to false, i just used it for testing

teal rivet
#

got it all figured out

hushed dagger
#

how did you do it? I have the same problem @teal rivet ?

teal rivet
#

you have to spawn the projectile from another entity with the "minecraft:spawn_entity" component

hushed dagger
#

i did that in the player.json file

#

it still doesnt have any velocity

teal rivet
#

hm

#

is it in a component group that gets added by an event?

hushed dagger
#

yes

#

exacly

teal rivet
#

and did you set the "power" in the projectile?

hushed dagger
#

yes

teal rivet
#

weird

hushed dagger
#

it is very wierd

teal rivet
#

i cant really think of any issues if you did all that

#

maybe check the format versions of your files

#

i had wrong format versions a couple times and that messed things up for me

hushed dagger
#

i did that also hahahaha

teal rivet
#

lmao

hushed dagger
#

there is a tutorial on bedrock wiki about this

#

and i even copy pasted it

#

and yet it just doesnt work

teal rivet
#

does the projectile entity spawn?

hushed dagger
#

yes

#

on the player coordinates

teal rivet
#

and it just falls down

hushed dagger
#

yes

teal rivet
#

hm

#

very weird

hushed dagger
#

it doesnt exacly fall

#

it hits the player

#

when it starts falling

teal rivet
#

oh maybe try giving the projectile the "runtime_identifier" of "minecraft:snowball"

hushed dagger
#

did that

teal rivet
#

oh if it hits the player maybe also give it an offset

hushed dagger
teal rivet
#

check if it works if you give it an x offset of like 2 or so

hushed dagger
#

ok i will try that

teal rivet
#

i think the collision box might be so big that it collides with the player instantly when it spawns

#

also, make it "minecraft:snowball" not with a .

hushed dagger
#

it was the dot

#

frick

#

Thanks man

#

i am realyy sloppy

teal rivet
#

hahah no worries

hushed dagger
#

you are a great dude

teal rivet
#

that kinda stuff is always what you spend hours on

hushed dagger
#

yes

#

you understand the struggle

teal rivet
#

yep

#

i think the vscode minecraft bedrock extension even autocompletes it with a dot

#

but its jut not correct lol

hushed dagger
#

yes
