I have a block that does this. I’ll post it later today.

#

Essentially you run a particle command using an event activated by ticking.

#

Yes, that’s how is done.
Put this in your components if you want it to be an always thing, or in permutations if you want to set some sort of condition or dependency;


"minecraft:queued_ticking": {
                "looping": true,
                "interval_range": [0, 0],
                "on_tick": {
                    "event": "test:particle",
                    "target": "self"
                }
            }```

And on your events;

"test:particle": {
"run_command": {
"command": [
"particle minecraft:lava_particle ~ ~ ~"
]
}
}```

#

The event can also be the following to avoid using run_command, which is still on experimental:

    "test:particle": {
        "play_effect": {
            "effect": "minecraft:lava_particle",
            "target": "self"
        }
    }

gilded raptor The event can also be the following to avoid using `run_command`, which is still...

Oh, on experimental

#

Thx

#

Now it's only about the sensor

Not sure of what you are talking about here

Other question Just was to detect whenever an block on top is mined

#

You kinda can make that with the new execute command

But is it lag free? Also it would need an check every tick

gilded raptor Mar 14, 2023, 10:23 PM

#

Running commands every tick are usually laggy, but it really depends of the commands. In your case it wouldn’t really be laggy, I don’t think so

ok.... probably an easier way to do this, but this is what I did.

#

and then the function to go with it...

#

particle mossgolem:moss_particle ~~1~
