entity except player on beforechat event

[smoky cedar]

How to get the entity in the beforeChat event other than player, for example the entity needed is an entity with typeid custom:test, then it can be used to change the nametag of the entity

.

[terse goblet]

player.dimension.getEntity()

[smoky cedar]

for(const player of world.getPlayers()) {
let entity = player.dimension.getEntity('custom:test');
entity.nameTag = 'test';
}

Like that?

actually you can just do

world.events.beforeChat.subscribe((data) => {
for (let entity of world.getDimension(data.sender.dimension.id).getEntities({ type: 'custom:test' })) {
entity.nameTag = 'test'
}
})
