How do I make mobs around me execute the /damage command?

[upbeat crest]

I want to add damage to all mobs around me, but I don't want to take damage

[patent olive]

@upbeat crest u want it with command or with script?

[upbeat crest]

Script

@patent olive

system.runInterval(() => {
world.getPlayers().forEach((player) => {
  if (lib.scoreboard.get(player, "black_leg_spin") >= 4 && lib.scoreboard.get(player, "black_leg_spin") <= 24) {
player.runCommandAsync(`damage @e[r=2.5] ${(lib.score(player, "dmg")) + 3} entity_attack entity "${player.nameTag}"`)
}
});
}, 2);

So here it is 🙂?

[upbeat crest]

It turns out that the damage is also given to the player

How to solve?

[patent olive]

What i understand is the player get the damage to right?

[upbeat crest]

When the player has a "black_leg_spin" score between 4 and 24, he executes the /damage command

I don't want the player executing the command to receive the damage

[patent olive]

system.runInterval(() => {
world.getPlayers().forEach((player) => {
  if (lib.scoreboard.get(player, "black_leg_spin") >= 4 && lib.scoreboard.get(player, "black_leg_spin") <= 24) {
player.runCommandAsync(`damage @e[r=2.5,type=!player] ${(lib.score(player, "dmg")) + 3} entity_attack entity "${player.nameTag}"`)
}
});
}, 2);

Try it

This is should work but there's some things bad like he can give a damage to another players @upbeat crest

But you can solve it with give the player a tag with hes name and check if the player has the name if the same same don't give him a damge and if have another name give him the damage

[upbeat crest]

I want it to cause damage to other players

[patent olive]

Ok wait give me a min

[upbeat crest]

I don't want the player executing the command to take damage

[patent olive]

Try it @upbeat crest

system.runInterval(() => {
world.getPlayers().forEach((player) => {
    player.addTag(player.name);
  if (lib.scoreboard.get(player, "black_leg_spin") >= 4 && lib.scoreboard.get(player, "black_leg_spin") <= 24) {
player.runCommandAsync(`damage @e[r=2.5,tag=!${player.name}] ${(lib.score(player, "dmg")) + 3} entity_attack entity "${player.nameTag}"`)
}
});
}, 2);```

[upbeat crest]

But then, I'll have to make another script that makes the tag have the player's name

I have an idea

  if (lib.scoreboard.get(player, "black_leg_spin") >= 4 && lib.scoreboard.get(player, "black_leg_spin") <= 24) {
player.runCommandAsync(`damage @e[r=2.5,name=!${player.name}] ${(lib.score(player, "dmg")) + 3} entity_attack entity "${player.nameTag}"`)

[patent olive]

: ) i already make that's

[upbeat crest]

I'll try

[patent olive]

Look at the first i add the tag to the player

player.addTag(player.name);```

Or u can use the name to

@e[name=!${player.name}]```

[oblique pivot]

why would you do that I mean it's not hard but I don't see a point

[unkempt cave]

[...world.getPlayers()].forEach();

[glacial halo]

you can run commands from the entity it self and use @s
or use damage method

[patent olive]

🙂 I don't know, but I apply the ideas that come to me for the first time

[oblique pivot]

isn't that the exact same thing

[unkempt cave]

no

[oblique pivot]

how

well more of why

Like I get doing that changing the it won't effect the orginal but like why dose that matter

[nimble patrol]

applyDamage(amount: number, options?: EntityApplyDamageByProjectileOptions | EntityApplyDamageOptions): boolean

Applies a set of damage to an entity.

Parameters
amount: number

Amount of damage to apply.

options?: EntityApplyDamageByProjectileOptions | EntityApplyDamageOptions = null

Additional options about the source of damage, which may add additional effects or spur additional behaviors on this entity.

Returns boolean - Whether the entity takes any damage. This can return false if the entity is invulnerable or if the damage applied is less than or equal to 0.```

Microsoft docs has some info

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/scriptapi/minecraft/server/entity#applydamage

This way we can use the native not just a command

[oblique pivot]

I could see it be useful but not really

[patent olive]

Bro I can do this, but he wants to do it with command not with script : )

[umbral shard]

he said script

[umbral shard]

^^

[patent olive]

I saw him put the command in code, and I thought he wanted to continue with that situation

[umbral shard]

system.runInterval(() => {
world.getPlayers().forEach((player) => {
  if (lib.scoreboard.get(player, "black_leg_spin") >= 4 && lib.scoreboard.get(player, "black_leg_spin") <= 24) {
player.dimension.getEntities({location:player.location,maxDistance:2.5}).forEach(e=>{
e.damage(lib.score(player, "dmg") + 3) 
})
}
});
}, 2);
