Zombie is being a menace to society by blocking one of repeater’s pea

[lost nova]

Why is this happening?

[pastel hearth]

the red overlay is the entity's mercy invincibility (or that's what I would call it)
basically after getting hit the entity can't take any damage from any source until the timer runs out
you'll have to use a different method of applying damage with the self_destruct damage cause

[lost nova]

Is there a way to remove the mercy invincibility?

[pastel hearth]

There's none that I know of

[lost nova]

Ok can you pls explain to me the solution that you talked about

[pastel hearth]

honestly I'm not sure even this solution is practical

[lost nova]

From what I understand I should use /damage command somehow

[pastel hearth]

something like that

[last copper]

you can do something like this through long machinations, but it will still work randomly. It is worth using a scoreboard instead of the normal hp

[lost nova]

Wait
Do you mean I should use a health scoreboard for every zombie
And when the bullet hits them it subtracts from their health scoreboard
And the zombies health is determined by the scoreboard

[last copper]

no, just fully replace health with health scoreboard

[lost nova]

Oh, Do you have any idea on how to do that?

Or a tutorial video?

||@last copper|| sorry for the mention

[last copper]

it is pretty easy

you can make an immortal zombie and delete it through the script after animation of death

but I'm not sure what will happen to delete it, or rather, I just haven't tried it yet

and the damage itself is done through an event, in which, for example, the color of the zombie will change for a short time, and the event itself will be caused by a projectile hitting the zombie hitbox

[cursive palm]

Yes

Although it's a bit complicated

Funny enough I actually was working on a PVZ project once and ran into this problem

my way of fixing it was making a custom health system using scoreboards

I'm also using a custom health system for my next project

so if you need help in setting it up I may be able to help

[last copper]

it is better to use it wherever possible.

[cursive palm]

100% Minecraft's vanilla system is currently crap when it comes to this stuff

[last copper]

yes, I would like to be able to disable them with one setting in the world settings, something like a "blank sheet" (including void world)

[trim kettle]

Make the projectiles do 0 damage > add a damage_sensor to detect when the projectile hits the entity > run /damage, which has no cooldown

[cursive palm]

I thought the damage command had a cooldown

[trim kettle]

I believe it doesn’t

[lost nova]

Yes pls

[lost nova]

Nah I tried it, it has a cooldown

[cursive palm]

the command itself doesn't have a cooldown but the damage won't register

[cursive palm]

first question: do you plan on this project just being an add-on or do you plan on having this be part of a specific world

[lost nova]

Just an addon

||@cursive palm ||

[cursive palm]

ik I'm thinking

[lost nova]

Just tell me the world I may figure the rest

[cursive palm]

ik we're gonna need to figure out how to create a scoreboard as soon as you join a world.

I'm gonna do some testing with something for this

one way we could do it is by setting up a timer on the player that executed an event after like 2-5 seconds

[lost nova]

Nvm I found another solution

[cursive palm]

What

[lost nova]

Using scripts
