Issue with block custom components

[odd orbit]

My custom components are only working when they are first defined outside of permutations.
This is a concern because I only want my block to tick in specific states, not all.

I'm aware that I can setup a condition to make it only do the stuff I want by checking its state in scripts.
However, it would still tick in the world. if this intended... how performant is randomTick and onTick when a large amount of blocks are placed? (and onTick isn't set to 1 tick)

Script?

[odd orbit]

the entire script?

[thorny shadow]

And why can you not put the tick in it's own component and include it in the states you want it in?

[odd orbit]

thats what im trying to, separate the ticking

but I cannot do that properly because of this issue which is a concern

[thorny shadow]

I do not understand the flow then. I am missing key information. What does the ticking part do?

[odd orbit]

I dont see how that matters

The issue is when I dont define the custom components outside permutations and ONLY use them in permutations, it wont work.

[thorny shadow]

Those messaages there, is the key missing information. I need to look at the example from MS learn, because I can swear they turned on and off a registration.

[odd orbit]

the registration is being skipped because what I told you.

it wont register unless it's defined outside of permutations

[pliant meteor]

This seems like a bug then

[odd orbit]

wonderful.

In the meantime, could you create a dummy block that preloads all custom component?

[odd orbit]

Good idea

[thorny shadow]

This is where I understood that that should work... I came across this and had to study it to see how it worked... It trades off components... https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/documents/customcomponentstutorial?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable#block-custom-components

Maybe you can take their code and it you cannot get it to work, then definitely a bug. If it does work, then the key may be in there

[nimble scroll]

Oh, yeah I've noticed this a few times, if it's not directly being used on a block it doesn't work

I don't think it's a bug

The workaround is to just have two separate blocks

And probably what Mochungus would suggest

Considering the flattening

[odd orbit]

this works.

[odd orbit]

well even it weren't a bug, it's an issue

[thorny shadow]

Key .. may be in this paragraph The crop grown component exists on only the finished crop when it is ready to be harvested. This component will allow the player to interact with the block to harvest the strawberries without having to break the block. It then "replants" the strawberries by changing the block permutation back to the first growth stage. This component is registered by making a new class that implements the BlockCustomComponet object, giving you a third way to register components. The same can be done with items and the ItemCustomComponent object.

[odd orbit]

ah...

I see.

[thorny shadow]

I see, but then I don't see... its like the chicken and the egg to me right now...

[odd orbit]

I'll just do the third way

assuming that'll make it work without Smokey's solution.

nvm

implements is for typeScript

[thorny shadow]

yes, but convert to js... most is the same

just take out the js parts

[odd orbit]

I use js

[thorny shadow]

Lots of vscode extenstions to help with that

I use js too, but I can understand code,... just write it in the langauge you are using

[odd orbit]

...

that was the plan.

[odd orbit]

this will do for now ig

[night steppe]

also make sure to import it in the main.js or it wont even register. also needs the full component name name space included ex. 'namespace;custom_component'

[stark tide]

We believe this is a content error. The strings don't match.

To fix this, the script (not JSON) needs to change the component name to "vcc:vine_functionality_vino"

[odd orbit]

I swear it was not working and this error had nothing to do with it. I even intentionally unfixed this spelling error and it didnt break everything like how it was before

[odd orbit]

I even had a friend test it for me, and he didnt have the issue, I guess im insane.

[night steppe]

The custom component names need to match in both files. Script and json

[odd orbit]

Im aware.

just nvm.

[night steppe]

Try using the debug it should tell you

[odd orbit]

I said nvm
