[viral sonnet]

HI

[drifting lantern]

LETS GOO

[elfin coyote]

YAYY

[safe wadi]

frtnite

[torpid briar]

ain't no way

[acoustic rune]

Fixed several crashes that could occur during gameplay

[torpid briar]

lets goo

[acoustic rune]

no way

I need to try this

[fallow bridge]

yay

[shy stratus]

Yay!

[fathom terrace]

@worn parcel Now you can use dynamic properties with no registration, it just returns undefined when empty

[viral sonnet]

ping me if 1.7.0 is stable and if the new dynamic properties are stable with their new stuff

[fathom terrace]

OK, noted!

[upper dagger]

no\

[torpid briar]

Flowing Lava and Water mixing mechanics now match Java Edition (MCPE-41103)
finally

[solid sail]

Dynamic Properties will be stable in 1.20.50

[viral sonnet]

ight thx

[icy stag]

no minecraft.net article?

[tame fog]

Happy Stable Day!

[upper dagger]

I wish it was preview day 😔

[gusty snow]

Happy Preview Day!

[shrewd finch]

Yay

[fathom terrace]

Happy Stable Day to you too!

[torpid briar]

ig wait for tomorrow

[upper dagger]

no

[mortal valley]

more like a happy not-a-banana-but-good-day

[wispy harness]

Yay 🎉

[fallow bridge]

Happy tangerine day

[mortal valley]

happy pokemon day

[lofty flax]

Yay!

[acoustic rune]

happy "hoping that the game didn't crash on my phone" day

[lofty flax]

Can't wait for everyones horses to die in Survival now lmao
Also what's the point of making goat horns be heard from so far away?

[acoustic rune]

well it's a horns.

[lofty flax]

What a cool little layout lol

[upper dagger]

oh no

Is this implying that horses finally take fall damage

after over 2 years of them not?

[lofty flax]

Placing invalid items into offhand slot will no longer cause them to drop? 🤔

[lofty flax]

I would assume so

They stopped boats from taking fall damage from high heights now too

Falling from a great height while in a Boat no longer deals fall damage (MCPE-152753)

[simple warren]

WTF.... Deprecated "minecraft:weapon" component starting in version 1.20.40 Deprecated "minecraft:on_use" component starting in version 1.20.40 Deprecated "minecraft:on_use_on" component starting in version 1.20.40

Will items become useless?

[tulip zinc]

roughly, yes

[lofty flax]

The /damage command with the "override" cause now causes damage through post hit invulnerability (MCPE-160290)
Does this mean we can have dealsDamage false and then override that?

[tulip zinc]

it seems like a true damage that passes through damage sensor

but i aint sure

[simple warren]

I think they are forcing people to have to use scripts...... well I guess I have to keep items on 1.20.10 in order to have stuff do stuff....

[shy stratus]

Use scripting

You've had months to prepare for this

[simple warren]

Not yet... I love love love using the components and getting stuff to work that way... besides no time for JS yet... learning CS

for work

[tulip zinc]

c sharp?

[simple warren]

Yes

[tulip zinc]

okay

[mortal valley]

meanwhile me who is stuck in between to learn JS

[safe wadi]

😦

meanie

[forest cedar]

Time to see if my Add-On broke

[shy stratus]

Time to publish my mcpedl project

[tulip zinc]

😆I have been there, u just need to understand you will need someday to use pther languages and after learning JS you will cut down 50% the learning time for other languages

[shy stratus]

😄

[slow rivet]

😦 little blocks only now

[simple warren]

Little as in under 30?

[warm solstice]

Still no lore limit increase

[forest cedar]

People were using it to have massive blocks that went waayy above the geometry limit.

[lofty flax]

I want to see a massive Creator update that has nothing but fixes/updates and additions to the Script API and everything else

[simple warren]

Ah... I see Q.C. missed that one upon first release.... does anyone work in that dept?

[forest cedar]

Wasn't this already added?

[simple warren]

I think you could do both... maybe now, just the one

[forest cedar]

For 1.20.30

You couldn't do both in 1.20.30 version

Would do content log error

[shy stratus]

QC?

[forest cedar]

Quality Control?

[simple warren]

Testing....

[astral sapphire]

I am too lazy to read the changelog did they add the new dynamic properties

[simple warren]

Need a department called "How will those little F-ers try to get over on us"

[astral sapphire]

They did

[eternal spindle]

Minecraft v1.20.40 is out now on the Microsoft Store!

[forest cedar]

yay

[shy stratus]

Noice

[simple warren]

I still do not understand how they can take away 90% of the ways to have an item call an event...
took it out of digger... now taking away on_use, on_use_on... I mean... really... Some things, it would be nice to know the long term plan..

[tulip hatch]

ok fine 5 mins later

[crisp basin]

I mean we've known that was coming for ages now

[simple warren]

No I didn't and why did no one complain

I don't do beta and preview... so no idea

[crisp basin]

Pretty sure people did, but objectively scripts are better for logic

[crisp basin]

There's a reason block events haven't moved to stable

[agile ingot]

You shouldn't get comfortable with experimental features.

[simple warren]

Do scripts 100% work in Realms now?

[crisp basin]

Stable scripts do

Experimental features have always been iffy in realms

[simple warren]

Does everything they took away from items work in stable scripts?

[crisp basin]

Yes

[shy stratus]

[crisp basin]

Otherwise they wouldn't have taken it away

[iron lagoon]

don't take it seriously, it's a joke

[crisp basin]

Poggy's Better on Bedrock vs SmokeStacks' Better Bedrock

[simple warren]

Uh Oh

[shy stratus]

Mines will flop

[crisp basin]

The name better on bedrock still doesn't make sense to me

[iron lagoon]

Bruh

[shy stratus]

[forest cedar]

Yay my Add-on did not break

[upper dagger]

Estrongel's Better Dirtblock

[shy stratus]

Now back to messing with nbt and leveldb

[torpid briar]

well it doesn't work on java so it is technically better on bedrock

[simple warren]

Do they plan on taking things away from entities too.. to force to scripts?

[crisp basin]

How could it be better if it doesn't exist on java?

[agile ingot]

When Mojang removes features, they usually add an alternative.
Custom biomes are an exception.

[torpid briar]

that's the point lol

[crisp basin]

I think you worry too much

[agile ingot]

run_command

[elfin coyote]

Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought Kayla said that the plan is to get HCF being stable, which means the components behind that toggle must be functioning on a long term without causing issues, hence they remove some experimental components

[crisp basin]

Only thing leaving is run command

And we have a script alternative to that ^ just hasn't made it to stable yet

[elfin coyote]

Also I would love to have a holiday season without having to use the HCF toggle someday 😆

[simple warren]

That would be the killer... dang... they plan to do away with that?

[crisp basin]

They have an alternative to it so

[shy stratus]

I wonder if I need to update my auxval to blockstate website

[upper dagger]

It's not as simple as converting your item use_on's to scripting, but there are tons of interactions we can do that involve entities

[shy stratus]

Most components will make it to stable, no events will. They're being moved to scripting

[crisp basin]

There's always some sort of heads up when they do take features out

[digital gate]

f

[simple warren]

I am still crying on that one

[crisp basin]

Yeah, chargeable is the only item component left. And all block components are done

[crisp basin]

Good change

[upper dagger]

Too bad the method of lowering the durability of an item in scripting is pretty janky and annoying for people unfamiliar with it

[simple warren]

well guess I am hitting up my js tutorial soon....

[shy stratus]

I will say, F for the weapons one, that added tooltips iirc

[crisp basin]

Yeh, do wish there was a better way on doing that but whatever

[crisp basin]

I think someone brought this up before and you said that the damage component does this now no?

[shy stratus]

Oh? Based

[upper dagger]

Time for me to start making Scripting guides

[simple warren]

so like 1.20.10 is the new 1.16.100 for items

[crisp basin]

I haven't checked it myself but I believe someone here mentioned that

[warm solstice]

Me when ItemStack.durability--;

[shy stratus]

1.20.XX

[crisp basin]

There hasn't really been one big item update, it's been split across 1.20

[simple warren]

I mean they started taking away events stuff as of 1.20.20... so you have to use 1.20.10 for digger events... 1.20.30 for on_use etcs

so 1.20.10 is as far as I can go in components

for items

[shy stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/now-old-man-the-future-is-now-old-man-gif-9677657

[warm solstice]

Scripting 👍

[warm solstice]

You’re one to talk, old man

[upper dagger]

spooky are you ready?

[warm solstice]

Mmmmmno

[upper dagger]

I can see the future

[shy stratus]

Luckily, I have my regolith filter to easily update blocks and items 😌 I have github copilot to update my scripts. I am set for 1.21

[warm solstice]

The future where we create a highly advanced realm that nobody plays? Wouldn’t be my first time

[upper dagger]

my prediction:

world.afterEvents.itemUseOn.subscribe((eventData) => {
    if(eventData.itemStack.typeId == "my:shovel") {
        eventData.source.runCommandAsync("say hi")
    }
    else if (eventData.itemStack.typeId == "my:shovel2") {
        eventData.source.runCommandAsync("say hi2")
    }
    else if (eventData.itemStack.typeId == "my:shovel3") {
        eventData.source.runCommandAsync("say hi3")
    }
    else if (eventData.itemStack.typeId == "my:shovel4") {
        eventData.source.runCommandAsync("say hi4")
    }
    else if (eventData.itemStack.typeId == "my:shovel5") {
        eventData.source.runCommandAsync("say hi5")
    }
})```

The pure hatred of people who lost their components

[crisp basin]

It's uhh not that bad

[warm solstice]

Me when regex

[upper dagger]

Not setting consts, no array, using runCommandAsync

pretty bad

[shy stratus]

switch case

[upper dagger]

not for that few conditionals

[simple warren]

I was thinking a loop

[shy stratus]

Or yeah, regex is parfect for this instance but i doubt people name their items item1 item2 item3

[simple warren]

if 15 of them

[shy stratus]

You could use a map

[upper dagger]

for loop with all items in an array

[mortal valley]

the point is. I'm not getting any free time to learn coding or to do any other activities

[shy stratus]

Here's what I did with my bucket entities

[crisp basin]

True but it's uhh

[crisp basin]

I just realized we can better bucket entities now that the interact event is no longer in preview

[upper dagger]

Still can't interact with WATER

[shy stratus]

world.afterEvents.playerInteractWithEntity.subscribe((eventData) => {
    const ITEM: ItemStack = eventData.itemStack;

    if (
        ITEM.typeId == 'minecraft:water_bucket' &&
        BUCKETABLE_ENTITIES.has(eventData.target.typeId)
    ) {
        pickupBucketEntity(
            eventData,
            BUCKETABLE_ENTITIES.get(eventData.target.typeId)
        );
        eventData.target.remove();
    }
});

[upper dagger]

when all caps and underscores 🥹

[crisp basin]

I'll never get past how weird multiline stuff looks

[shy stratus]

I make my senior devs cry when they see my naming scheme

[simple warren]

oh well.. happy release day... off to work

[upper dagger]

sure would be nice if we could interact with water though

😔

[crisp basin]

You can work around it but yeah

[shy stratus]

Does interact with block not detect water

[upper dagger]

I don't think so

[warm solstice]

runCommandAsync('say hi' + item.typeId.match(/(?<=)\d+?/).shift())

[upper dagger]

I would need to check again, my poor attempt at making my own fishing system was abruptly obliterated when I found that out

[shy stratus]

😬 make the regex a separate variable though

[warm solstice]

Mmmmno

[safe wadi]

you ever juju on that beat so hard, but you a gangsta

[versed vector]

I just finished updating it lol

[shy stratus]

Sabotage it

[solid sail]

The update isn't available on windows 10 ?

[tulip hatch]

it's already there

[versed vector]

uh, the upload is almost done

[shy stratus]

😔

[elfin coyote]

Uhh... switch case what is that? I only know else if spam - Some old Mojang employee

[shy stratus]

Yandere dev

[elfin coyote]

That as well

[shy stratus]

Also I was thinking oft he nintendo switch for some reason

[elfin coyote]

Switch case < Else if 😄

[shy stratus]

elif

[upper dagger]

me, an intellectual js switch (eventData.brokenBlockPermutation.type.id) { case "minecraft:clay": case "minecraft:dirt_with_roots": case "minecraft:dirt": case "minecraft:grass": case "minecraft:gravel": case "minecraft:mycelium": case "minecraft:podzol": case "minecraft:sand": case "minecraft:snow": case "minecraft:powder_snow": case "minecraft:soul_sand": case "minecraft:soul_soil": //WHERE IS COARSE DIRT GUYS //case "minecraft:coarse_dirt": if (getPlayerScore(player, 'gamemode') <= 2) { setPlayerScore(player, 'digging_xp_c', getPlayerScore(player, 'digging_xp_c') + 60) setPlayerScore(player, 'tot_digging_xp', getPlayerScore(player, 'tot_digging_xp') + 60) setPlayerScore(player, 'total_xp', getPlayerScore(player, 'total_xp') + 60) if (player.getDynamicProperty('experienceToggle') == true) { player.sendMessage(`§o§7+§a${60} §r\uE10E §o%general.xp`) } if (getPlayerScore(player, 'digging_xp_c') >= getPlayerScore(player, 'digging_xp_r')) { levelUp(player, "digging_level", "digging_xp_c", "digging_xp_r", "digging.level", "runecraft:digging_level_up", diggingUnlocksArray) } } break; }

[shy stratus]

WHERE IS COARSE DIRT GUYS

[upper dagger]

I'm leaking my commented out sections bit by bit

They are pure insanity

[versed vector]

isn't coarse dirt just dirt?

[upper dagger]

I think yes

[shy stratus]

Bro... player.getDynamicProperty('experienceToggle') == true why?

[versed vector]

iirc to get coarse dirt you have to modify the state of the dirt

[warm solstice]

Running totals for XP >>>>
I will not elaborate

[upper dagger]

as opposed to just player.getDynamicProperty('experienceToggle')? Skill issue I guess

[shy stratus]

Disappointed

[upper dagger]

I'm going to need you to elaborate

[versed vector]

I'm disappointed too Smokey

[upper dagger]

That code is from 4 months ago

more

I haven't revisited any of it

[warm solstice]

Fine

const currentLevel = levelArray.filter((passedLevels) => playerXP >= passedLevels).length;

[upper dagger]

huh

[warm solstice]

Yes 👍

[upper dagger]

I door not know

My way is what next geners do

[warm solstice]

Your way is what normies do

[upper dagger]

I like to keep everything looking the normie way

[warm solstice]

What if someone gets enough XP to pass a level entirely

Like, level 1 -> level 3

[upper dagger]

😏

allow me to introduce you

to xpSystem.js

[warm solstice]

No thanks

I’m not hungry

[upper dagger]

it's just this getPlayerScore(player, currentXp) >= getPlayerScore(player, requiredXp)

[odd sphinx]

Falling from a great height while in a Boat no longer deals fall damage
instead of fixing it in Java, Mojang changed it to bedrock? lol

a bug is now a feature

[crisp basin]

Isn't the first time they've done that

[upper dagger]

Honestly it should give damage, I don't care if those forms of travel suck, let me horses die

[odd sphinx]

I know

[odd sphinx]

or destroy the boat maybe

Added a new “query.is_in_lava” Query Function to Molang, to know if a mob is currently in Lava
Finally

Allow single value parsing for "minecraft:icon" item component
What this mean?

[lofty flax]

when does the 1.6.0 package release?

[shrewd finch]

Nice what is this suppose to be, stock?

[pastel talon]

I still dont know how to use shoot projectile without on_use firing the event, how would you do it with scripting?

[shy stratus]

Use the shooter component

[royal badge]

This update feels like an upgrade and a downgrade at the same time...

[lofty flax]

Why's that?

[lofty flax]

they do not 😐

[tame fog]

FYI - here's the condensed update notes for creators: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/documents/update1.20.40

[solid sail]

You spoiled the coming of explosion event in stable 👀

[elfin coyote]

Kayla didn't, the 2 who wrote the changelog did

[cloud shore]

bruh

what the heck

[gusty snow]

when npm packages will be released for 1.20.40 stable?

[cloud shore]

well, guess ill just keep making my items on older format versions

[sudden pivot]

Ahoooy!
Yo sorry for my ignorance
All these "moved from beta to..." Means that if an addon used those beta thingies experiments, now they should work on non-experimental worlds?

In theory at least*?

[digital gate]

yep

[cloud shore]

so one day bedrock modding will be only based on scripts?

[cloud shore]

well, we could just keep using older format versions, it wouldn't make any difference at all

[elfin coyote]

No, there will still be a combination with just (json) components

[cloud shore]

got it

[elfin coyote]

#1154068632687611945 Mojang replied here

[cloud shore]

scripts break on every single minor update, that why I avoid using them

I would need to keep updating them for the rest of my file If I want to keep my addon working

[shy stratus]

So do blocks and items

[cloud shore]

I do, but now everything keeps getting deprecated

[shy stratus]

Use the stable apis only then

[cloud shore]

dumb question but if I keep using older format versions, like 1.19.50, in 4 years would that still work?

[shy stratus]

No gurantees

Just use the latest ones

[cloud shore]

i mean like, the things that were not deprecated on 1.19.50 but were deprecated on later versions would work if I keep my formart version to 1.19.50?

[fathom terrace]

Coool thank you!

[cloud shore]

most of my stuff would become useless, like the items for example

[elfin coyote]

1.20 would change a lot to ScriptAPI and deprecating components, but the next updates should have less of those

[shy stratus]

Just update them

Seriously

[cloud shore]

how would I update something that was deprecated?

[elfin coyote]

But that is mainly because of getting the experimental stuff becoming stable

[cloud shore]

theres no alternative

[elfin coyote]

Depends on which one you talk about

[cloud shore]

digger, on use, on use on, weapon

items are about to become only crafting materials

nothing more

[shy stratus]

Use scripting

[cloud shore]

dang... so thats really the only option

do you guys dont feel bad for having to update scripts every time?

[shy stratus]

Nope

[warm solstice]

It ees what it ees

[elfin coyote]

Weapon can be replaced by the damage component
And people have worked out script alternatives for on_use iirc

[cloud shore]

imagine you make spmething amazing to 4 days later have everything broken

[shy stratus]

Ive had to update my addon from 1.19.70 to 1.20.40

[warm solstice]

And scripts are mostly stable now anyways

[shy stratus]

Dont use experimental then

[warm solstice]

Simple read patch notes and prepare for updates

[cloud shore]

your entire project that you gave all of yourself will depend on constant maintenance to keep it working, you wont ever have it just "displayed in a museum"

if we at least could choose our mc versions

[warm solstice]

Again, stable scripts

[cloud shore]

I dont have this problem with experimentals tho

[agile ingot]

No. I have experience developing and maintaining the same Java map since 1.8.

[cloud shore]

are stable scripts safe from having something deprecated?/ are stable scripts worth it?

i mean, can you really make stuff with just the stable scripts

[warm solstice]

Stable scripts will never have anything changed, and many versions exist- from 1.0.0 up to 1.6.0 on this release

[cloud shore]

i mean, you could just let it sit there and people would still be able to play it by just choosing older versions

[cloud shore]

well, at least that. thats good to hear

[shy stratus]

Not enyirely true...stable can have breaking changes

[warm solstice]

Stable scripts were vary limited when first released, but the majority of stuff is stable scripts now

[elfin coyote]

However those changes are highly unlikely and mostly happen if an entire thing is rewritten

[cloud shore]

I havent had time to learn scripts yet, where should I start?

[shy stratus]

👆 Exactly, I would only worry if they went from 1.X.X to 2.X.X

[agile ingot]

True, but I wanted to use newer features. 🤷‍♀️

[versed vector]

I wonder if it will be 1.10.0 instead of 2.0.0

[cloud shore]

probably 1.10.0 lol

[agile ingot]

If you don't know the fundamentals of JS, I'd start there.

[cloud shore]

and after that, for bedrock specifically?

and thank you, ill just go learn scripts to use the stable stuff

[agile ingot]

Depending on how experienced you are at programming, you might be able to look at the docs and start figuring out how everything works.

This doesn't work for everyone, but I like tearing apart maps and addons and figuring out how they work.

I'm kind of in the same boat too, but I just need to write more scripts. 😅

[cloud shore]

understood

were can I find the scripting documentation?

[elfin coyote]

1.10.0 considering they follow a Semantic Versioning schem

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/documents/scriptversioning

[agile ingot]

Honestly, I've been suffering from tooling hell instead. I want to use TS instead of JS and haven't figured out a decent workflow yet.

[fathom terrace]

navi said they are planning some kind of 2.X.X but its going to be like API reboot, so many things will be redesigned, they dont want to remove or redesign things in stable versions 1.X.X for making move version to version as smooth as possible

but dont expect 2.X.X soon lol

[versed vector]

Oooo

[shy stratus]

use lua

[agile ingot]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/scriptapi/

[fathom terrace]

lua has just one thing cooler and thats custom operators, idk how thats called

but personally JS is the choice for me

[agile ingot]

Operator overloading.

[fathom terrace]

oh ya that thing

[haughty trail]

Were the enums not added in the typings?

for some reason its defined here, but it doesnt exist

[fathom terrace]

its just concept from API examples, its just outdated

[fathom terrace]

There is no such a ItemComponentTypes

[haughty trail]

so there is no enum?

[fathom terrace]

ya, there is no such a thing

its just concept

but in preview there is some kind of component map

[vivid cloak]

Removed limits on the count and size of properties that can set on an entity or the world

They finally made properties good

Also this

Property registration is no longer required and propertyRegistry has been removed from the worldInitialize event

[hushed badger]

Happy stable!

[haughty trail]

Why is there no fade time for Player.stopMusic? is this something coming

it should be like the /music stop command

where we can do Player.stopMusic(fadeSeconds?: float)

[upper dagger]

the musicOptions interface includes fade?

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/scriptapi/minecraft/server/musicoptions

[worn parcel]

Yay

[lofty flax]

Is there any way to reset just one property though?

I know there's clearDynamicProperties but that clears everything, I don't think you can specify an identifier

[upper dagger]

Set the property to undefined

[versed vector]

or just don’t specify a value

[odd sphinx]

can you add variable.attack_time public by default on the player?

[acoustic rune]

wait a second

you can now customize the touch control in this version

[torpid briar]

yeah

[acoustic rune]

I don't see it being mentioned anywhere here.

[torpid briar]

they forgot to mention it

[acoustic rune]

yeah the way I saw my texture pack button are oddly like no alpha whatsoever indicates me that

but yeah trying to see if my game still gonna crash with fancy graphic on

[torpid briar]

hopefully not

[acoustic rune]

eh nope

still crashes.

[torpid briar]

what

: (

[acoustic rune]

yeah it's not gonna get fixed

[sterile pendant]

what's wrong with them?

[icy stag]

beta day?

sorry wrong channel

[odd sphinx]

the leather helmet still not fixed

[lofty flax]

wtf is that lmao

[odd sphinx]

leather helmet xD

[lofty flax]

how did you manage to do that?

[odd sphinx]

enchanting them

[lofty flax]

oh enchanted

[lofty flax]

i see no problem with it :/

[odd sphinx]

weird, its not my texture pack

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/811611203209003069.webp?size=48

[agile ingot]

It's the new pink glitch.

[lofty flax]

Mobile only and it's only visible from looking at another player wearing it

[odd sphinx]

Ah xd

[lofty flax]

was this something in the last update too?

i don't play mobile so i've never seen this before, i only use it for testing scripts with alts

[worn parcel]

Tf is that

[lofty flax]

that's what happens on mobile with enchanted leather helmets lol

[worn parcel]

That's so weird and creepy

[lofty flax]

yeah, Gabriel said "still not fixed" which makes me think this isn't the only update that this has been a thing for

[lofty flax]

@odd sphinx It happens with every enchanted piece of armor 😭

Netherite Helmet
Chainmail Chestplate
Diamond Leggings (where they at!?)
Golden Boots

[odd sphinx]

yes

[odd sphinx]

fuck

[lofty flax]

again just remember i'm also supposed to be wearing diamond leggings in that screenshot lol

the boots just turn into leggings basically

[acoustic rune]

that does not happen to me

just played cubecraft alot and I don't see any issues like this honestly.

[lofty flax]

on mobile?

[acoustic rune]

Yep.

[lofty flax]

servers are goofy though, they probably have fixes for it

[astral trail]

The /damage command with the "override" cause now causes damage through post hit invulnerability (MCPE-160290)
I tried this and the entity does get 'damaged' (glow red) through post-hit invulnerability, but their health stays the same. Can someone confirm if this is really the case?

i think it works two or three times then ignores all consequent damage commands, until u give it a second to reset

[astral trail]

yeah seems to be the case

[odd sphinx]

that command is funny xd

you can make a combofly with that

[odd sphinx]

when I tried, thats not the case when I applied on a player

[astral trail]

what's interesting is this makes them invulnerable to other damage too... although it looks painful xD

[acoustic rune]

This version seems, weird.

I've gotten pink glitch for 3th time this week, sometimes randomly "server sent broken pocket"

and also sometimes the game does not recognize my username and instead throws some placeholder ones. no Steve, Player or whatsoever. just random skin strings.

those issues that I encountered was mostly on a phone.

[hexed vortex]

i've been having this issue since .30 i think

[acoustic rune]

I've been getting that issue on .30 but it's really uncommon. but this one is common for me.

[chilly plover]

i am happy that i can finely comprehend the API section of the change log

minecraft:on_use_on somehow still works in 1.20.40 even though the min game version is 1.20.40

[wispy harness]

whats the format version of the item file, thats why

[chilly plover]

ah, so it only affects files with format version of 1.20.40?

[wispy harness]

yes

[chilly plover]

that's good

untill world.afterEvents.useOn gets released, it's good to be able to use minecraft:on_use

[wispy harness]

you use stable?

[chilly plover]

yes

[wispy harness]

ah ok makes sense

[chilly plover]

Despite this note, it appears that "items" has been removed.

i got an error for using it

[shy stratus]

[chilly plover]

i can't open bedrock.wiki links without vpn and my phone isn't with me right now, tell me what it is?

[deep hazel]

They ain't askin twice

[chilly plover]

it's fun

just have a decent understanding of javascript, add a script module in your manifest, and write some .js files in the scripts folder, it's that simple

[torpid briar]

when you say it like that it is simple

[forest cedar]

Stay below 1.20.40 😉

[deep hazel]

The game? The items? or manifest min engine version?

[deep hazel]

?

[forest cedar]

If you don't set your format version to 1.20.40+ then you don't have to use scripting

[deep hazel]

If that's the case, what's more optimized?

[chilly plover]

the items

[wispy harness]

scripting

faster and allows for better logic

[agile ingot]

Reusable logic too.

[left kernel]

It may not seem like it, but the scripting api is also actually pretty powerful.

[chilly plover]

can't wait for dynamic properties and block states to get released!

[shy stratus]

Item propertied when

[shrewd finch]

To stable? Isnt dynamic properties already here?

[chilly plover]

is it?

[crisp basin]

I think it's stable in previews

Is the Boss Bar broken in 1.20.40 and how long has it been this way?
I added the boss component to an entity and set the distance to 250 but after about 50-100 blocks it disappeared.
When flying back over to it, even standing next to it I no longer see the boss name... Also updating it's name didn't seem to change anything.

[paper tusk]

I had this problem before 1.20.40. What I did to prevent it was set the boss bar render distance below 64 (entity render distance)

[lofty flax]

Okay, thanks

[fathom terrace]

ya, i think so it should arrive since 1.20.50

[simple warren]

So... game crashed while creating a flat test world, still selecting packs to test... that cannot be good.

In my spanking brand new 1.20.40

[slow rivet]

1.20.40 likes to crash 🙂

[lofty flax]

I don't think I've crashed once since 1.20.40 released unless I've been trying to use shaders on my phone

[shrewd finch]

1.20.40 has been totally fine for me on mobile and pc

I create addons and scripts so not sure what yall doing different

Android * & windows 10 *

@slow rivet

[slow rivet]

I work on Geyser :p

[shrewd finch]

Awh

[slow rivet]

Pocketmine and gophertunnel also had similar issues

They seemed to add a lot more validation that causes the client to crash in cases that did not before. Though in our case it was mostly related to chunks. But perhaps some bleeds over into scripting.

[mortal valley]

well that was completely unexpected

[slow rivet]

Queue the hate comments :/

[paper tusk]

hate for what?
