ui not working

[brave nebula]

world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe(async (data) => {
    const { message, sender: player } = data;
    if (message === "-bp") {
         let title = "bbb";
         system.run(() => {
            first(player, title);
         });
    }
});

export async function first(player, title, source) {
    const form = new ChestFormData("45");
    form.title(title);
    form.pattern([
        "_________",
        "_________",
        "_________",
        "_________",
        "xxyyyyyxx",
    ], {
        x: { itemName: "glass", stackAmount: 1, texture: "textures/blocks/glass_red" },
        y: { itemName: "glass", stackAmount: 1, texture: "textures/blocks/glass_orange" },
    });
    const response = await forceShow(player, form);
    await system.waitTicks(2);
     uiManager.closeAllForms(player);
     second(player, title)(
}

Why i should cancel form to play the second ui? how to solve this so it will play second form when i closed chat?

[brave nebula]

anyone

[brave frigate]

rephrase please

[brave nebula]

Why do I need to cancel the first form in order to display the second form? How can I ensure that the second form is displayed after “system.waitTicks(2)”, without needing to cancel the first form?

[brave nebula]

still not working

I should cancel form to make it work

[steady flower]

wdym

[brave nebula]

I mean it not showing second form

try it out yourself

[brave nebula]

???

ANYONE

[sweet breach]

You don't need to cancel the first form for the second form to show up. I can't see the code to your other functions leading to the second form but when you create a new instance of the form it should just pop open that form and the other closes automatically. I'm not familiar with this custom form you have: ChestFormData.

[brave nebula]

It does not close automatically

[sweet breach]

You need to show more code then. You are using a custom form class, and you have functions you are calling that we can't verify if their behavior is as intended.

[brave nebula]

wym by “show more code”

[glossy finch]

they need to see the full thing.

[sweet breach]

Indeed, otherwise I can only speculate.

[brave nebula]

import { world, system } from "@minecraft/server";
import { uiManager } from "@minecraft/server-ui";
import { forceShow } from "./utils.js"; 
world.beforeEvents.chatSend.subscribe(async (data) => {
    const { message, sender: player } = data;
    if (message === "-bp") {
         let title = "bbb";
         system.run(() => {
            first(player, title);
         });
    }
});

async function first(player, title) {
    const form = new ChestFormData("45");
    form.title(title);
    form.pattern([
        "_________",
        "_________",
        "_________",
        "_________",
        "xxyyyyyxx",
    ], {
        x: { itemName: "glass", stackAmount: 1, texture: "textures/blocks/glass_red" },
        y: { itemName: "glass", stackAmount: 1, texture: "textures/blocks/glass_orange" },
    });
    const response = await forceShow(player, form);
    await system.waitTicks(2);
     uiManager.closeAllForms(player);
     second(player, title)
}

async function second(player, title) {
    const form = new ChestFormData("45");
    form.title(title);
    form.pattern([
        "_________",
        "_________",
        "_________",
        "xyyyyyyyx",
        "xxyyyyyxx",
    ], {
        x: { itemName: "glass", stackAmount: 1, texture: "textures/blocks/glass_red" },
        y: { itemName: "glass", stackAmount: 1, texture: "textures/blocks/glass_orange" },
    });
    await form.show(player);
}

[brave nebula]

now can you?

[brave nebula]

???

[sweet breach]

Sorry, busy with family. Can you show your code for the forceShow() function please.

[brave nebula]

alr

[brave nebula]

export async function forceShow(player, form, timeout = Infinity) {
    const startTick = system.currentTick;
    while ((system.currentTick - startTick) < timeout) {
        const response = await (form.show(player));
        if (response.cancelationReason !== FormCancelationReason.UserBusy) {
            return response;
        }
    };
    throw new Error(`Timed out after ${timeout} ticks`);
}

[sweet breach]

Thanks, bare with me. I am busy with my family - still celebrating the holidays.

The parameters filled in for the buttons is based on the assumption that you are using the ChestFormData Class from Herobrines Chest-UI project.

[brave nebula]

I meant I need to show second form automatically without making player response

[rare wigeon]

@sweet breach sorry for ping, are you familiar with this chest Ui by herobrine?

[brave nebula]

anyone knows the solution?

[sweet breach]

So by that logic you don't need the first form. You just need the second one. It wouldn't make sense to show the first just to have it automatically load the second.

I'm not really sure what your end goal is so maybe someone else can assist.

[sweet breach]

I know about it but I have never really used it. So I'm not familiar.

[brave nebula]

I need the first one tho

[brave nebula]

someone

[rare wigeon]

Ehh, I though that someone can help me with rawtext in it. Nevermind tho, thanks anyway for your answer!

[brave nebula]

help

[brave nebula]

is it solvable?

[brave nebula]

anyone

[rare wigeon]

        if (response?.selection === 0) {
            return first(player, title);
        }

Why you have there return first? And why you use (player, title)???
Also you useless function form build. There is no need to make const form1 or form2 -> you can just make new ChestFormData('45')

[rare wigeon]

Also each title can be done by creating consts and jsut copy paste that so you can have access to them without changing them in function parts

I think your issues/errors are by using this type of return second(player, title); returning to menu. It can be done like this

            if (r.selection == <NUMBER>) {
                <FUNCTION_NAME>(player);
                return;
            }

[sweet breach]

It's not my code that needs to be solved. It's hmmlwonder0982.

The return logic doesn't matter. Either way works. It was more or less to get it functional so they could extend it how they needed it, but there is confusion on what they actually need and it partially doesn't make sense so I stepped away. Based on what I am understanding they want the first form to show up for the player but then they want the second form to automatically appear right after. In such a case, it makes no sense to me to have the first one appear since it's going to be replaced by the second one instantaneously. So I do not understand why they need both if only the second one is going to be visible by nature.

[rare wigeon]

Sure, sorry for my message, I just tried understand his logic in your code and it is strange 😛
