What does "isInZone" do??

@gilded rock

import { world } from "@minecraft/server";

// Define the corners of the protected area
const zone = {
    x1: 10,
    y1: 0,
    z1: 10,
    x2: 20,
    y2: 256,
    z2: 20
};

// Function to check if a location is inside the protected zone
function isInZone(loc) {
    return (
        loc.x >= Math.min(zone.x1, zone.x2) && loc.x <= Math.max(zone.x1, zone.x2) &&
        loc.y >= Math.min(zone.y1, zone.y2) && loc.y <= Math.max(zone.y1, zone.y2) &&
        loc.z >= Math.min(zone.z1, zone.z2) && loc.z <= Math.max(zone.z1, zone.z2)
    );
}

// Subscribe to the player placing a block event
world.beforeEvents.playerPlaceBlock.subscribe(ev => {
    const loc = ev.block.location; // Get the location of the block being placed
    if (isInZone(loc)) {
        ev.cancel = true; // Cancel block placement
        ev.player.sendMessage("§cYou can't place blocks in this protected zone!");
    }
});```

I didn't try it, and I did it with pure AI, but maybe it gives you an idea.

What error did you get in the content error log?

[thick flax]

Can beforeEvents send a player message, don't you need a system.run()??

[lyric pilot]

no

player.sendMessage CAN be run in readonly mode

I need to see the error message.

wait I just realized that response was from a person who fixed it lol

[thick flax]

Oh yeah

That's what reading discord at 4am does

i have all this its just the world before events is not working

[ancient herald]

The playerPlaceBlock event is not currently available in the latest stable version of Minecraft Bedrock Edition; it is only available in the beta version. That’s why it doesn’t work for you in the stable release.

I just realized that. The last time I used it, the event was available. I updated Minecraft just yesterday.

[gilded rock]

?

it only work in 2.0.0-beta ?

[ancient herald]

I guess that’s it, but I didn’t opt into beta updates. I suggest you check it out yourself.

[gilded rock]

because all my script are in 1.19.0

and if i change in 2.0.0 the dynamic properties will not work

but its ok i will try add an other pack only for 2.0.0

beta

no you just have to make it wait a tick

you can just do await system.waitTicks(1);
