Fence and Fence Gate Template

[faint epoch]

Here is some simple fence and fence gate .block.json and .geo.json files.
The fence gates only open facing away from the direction it was originally placed (so not 100% vanilla-like).
You can just add the .js code into your main file. It controls the opening of the fence gate.

Currently trying to make some updates to this

[covert remnant]

Does this include commands?

I noticed that his connection only has the "only fences" filter, but no position filter, meaning it connects to all sides?

[faint epoch]

Yes, the same as vanilla

Vanilla I only realised after making it that fences also connects to the front and back of fence gates

[atomic valley]

i could be wrong but the fence gate doesn’t seem to show up in game for me

[faint epoch]

Huh. Tf

I'll see what I can do

[thorny mirage]

how is the fence gate showing up in game for you?

its not even showing up in my creative inventory

the fence is

[covert remnant]

Vanilla?

[thorny mirage]

oh

the custom fence gate isnt working for me

pretty sure because of the ""dma:fence_gate": []," line

[faint epoch]

You need the script also

the main.js file

@thorny mirage

[faint epoch]

Ok, this is now fixed

[covert remnant]

This too?

[faint epoch]

I have also added this

[faint epoch]

yep!

For some reason sometimes the custom fence looks smaller

But when compared to the proper bamboo model, it looks the exact same

So I don't think that needs to be edited

[covert remnant]

But fence gate is okay?

[faint epoch]

Yes

[thorny mirage]

I do

its saying like "| components | dma:fence_gate | []" and "| components | dma:fence_gate | child 'dma:fence_gate' not valid here."

[faint epoch]

Try this updated version

[thorny mirage]

i did

i still get that error

[faint epoch]

Ah hmm. That is a custom component part of the main.js file

[thorny mirage]

yeah

[faint epoch]

Did you add this to the manifest under "modules"?

{
  "uuid": "017bb48d-856c-4a4e-8f3f-767f26b2980d",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "type": "script",
  "language": "javascript",
  "entry": "scripts/main.js"
        }```

[thorny mirage]

yeah

"type": "script",
"language": "javascript",
"uuid": "1156747b-4d0e-451c-94a3-9ad8d2401dc2",
"version": [1, 0, 0],
"entry": "scripts/main.js"

wait howd you send it as code

[faint epoch]

` encase it with 3 of those at the front and end

It'll make a code block

[thorny mirage]

ohhh

bet

[upper canyon]

what versioning does the script use?
because i cant get it to work

it even broke all my existing scripts

for the block instead, i had to use the old format of the custom component, as it wasnt appearing ingame at all

[faint epoch]

The script is 2.6.0-beta

At least that was the one I was using when making it. You can try 2.5.0, but I think there's one thing that is still in beta

[upper canyon]

wont that break all the other scripts im using? as im using 1.17.0

[faint epoch]

Ah you're way behind 😭

[upper canyon]

😭

yeah

[faint epoch]

No wonder it won't work then 😅

You should upgrade. It'll allow you to do so much more than what you can in 1.17.0

[upper canyon]

yeah but i pretty much dont need any of the new stuff 👉👈

[faint epoch]

Understandable

[upper canyon]

would it break the existing scripts if i update it?

the version thingy

idk how scripting works, i just dont want to break anything 🙏

[faint epoch]

It shouldn't

Ik there was a big change in one of the subscribes. I think it was onLoad or something like that

[upper canyon]

hmm

[upper canyon]

which one of these is the version ur talking about?

server or server ui

[faint epoch]

Server

Make sure you install the updated module

[upper canyon]

?

[faint epoch]

npm i @minecraft/[email protected]

[upper canyon]

what? 😭

[faint epoch]

What code editor do you use?

[upper canyon]

no one

i type the stuff

[faint epoch]

Are you using a phone or PC?

[upper canyon]

pc

[faint epoch]

open up node.js app

Oop, sorry

Open up powershell

Or cmd

[upper canyon]

done

[faint epoch]

Put this into it and hit enter

Wait

That's the wrong module

woops

npm i @minecraft/[email protected]

There

Didn't realise the other was ui 😅

[upper canyon]

i copy this whole and paste it?

[faint epoch]

Yes

[upper canyon]

it says:
"npi" is not reconized as an internal or external exe program or batch file

[faint epoch]

do you have node JS installed?

[upper canyon]

no

i dont think so

[faint epoch]

Ah

https://nodejs.org/en

[upper canyon]

still doesnt work

[faint epoch]

I have no idea then 😭

[upper canyon]

do i type it like this? 😭

[faint epoch]

yes

[upper canyon]

thats weird

[faint epoch]

Do you have the geometry file

[upper canyon]

the blocks that use scripting no longer work, and the fence block doesnt even appear ingame

[upper canyon]

yeah i have everything put

[faint epoch]

Hmm

[upper canyon]

it just doesnt work

[faint epoch]

I'm as confused as you 😭

It works fine on my end

[upper canyon]

the block vanishes only when i put the new format of the custom component

this

and if i use the old one, it appears ingame but has no function

[faint epoch]

The "minecraft:custom_components" is no longer a valid component

You just need the first iamge

image*

Remove the component in the 2nd image completely

[upper canyon]

i did

[faint epoch]

Can you show me the full file?

[upper canyon]

thats what causes the block to no longer appear ingame

[upper canyon]

sent

[faint epoch]

Are you sure you have the fence_gate geometry??

[upper canyon]

yeah

[faint epoch]

What experimental features do you have on?

It works for me

I just changed the texture as I don't have it

[upper canyon]

all of them

[faint epoch]

I have no idea what's wrong with yours then 😭

[upper canyon]

now for example, i have set the old format of that component

and look, it appears just normal 😭

but no functionality

[faint epoch]

;-;

[faint epoch]

Sorry for the late reply, can you send me the full BP and RP as zips?

[upper canyon]

its ok, i dont need help anymore, i fixed the issue my self by editing the script a little and the block code

thanks anyway

[faint epoch]

Oh

Good!

[upper canyon]

:D

thanks again for the help

:)

[atomic valley]

did you ever find out the error?

i dont understand why im getting it and other people arent

[ashen flicker]

what is the block format version

basically :
by updating to scripting 2.0, a lot of stuff changes and will break untill you update it, namely
ApplyKnockback
.isValid()
and custom components

the new custom components component method will also require the block format version to be higher

[atomic valley]

can you send your fixed code please?

[atomic valley]

what version would you recommend

[ashen flicker]

1.26.0

[atomic valley]

like for the block.json?

cause that’s what mines at yet i’m still have the same problem as him

[ashen flicker]

what problem exactly?

[atomic valley]

this is part of my problem

it gives me like 3 errors related to it and doesn’t even show the block in game

and just like the other guy

if i comment it out, put it in custom component, or delete it

it works but has no functionality

[faint epoch]

It means the custom component isn't registering on the script side

What is your manifest file like?

[faint epoch]

Ahh, that's why

Change server to 2.5.0

npm i @minecraft/[email protected]

Then download that NPM

[thorny mirage]

in dependencies?

(is it bad that I dont know how to use npm or basically any of what you said there? 😭 )

[faint epoch]

Yes

[faint epoch]

Do you have node.js installed?

[atomic valley]

no

[faint epoch]

Ok, either way, you shouldn't need it installed to have it run properly in-game

So you can just put "version": "2.5.0" in the server module

[atomic valley]

oh

yeah that didnt work

i tried that back when I still had the files (they are on my school computer cause this is for one of my classes)

[onyx hull]

time to add redstone support..

[faint epoch]

Ah. I completely forgot about that tbh

[tacit ivy]

2.7.0-beta on stable

[covert remnant]

There's no way to fix this?

[faint epoch]

What's your content log?

[covert remnant]

No problem.

But visually, in the commands and in the UI Pocket, it's wrong.

[faint epoch]

Then I am as confused as you

[covert remnant]

So shouldn't it be out of place?

[faint epoch]

Ohhhh

Lmao

Now I understand 🤣

I thought only the first fence gate and fence were being registered is what you meant 😭

But yes, I believe there is a fix. And that will be in an updated template (whenever I get around to doing it)

[covert remnant]

Oh yea

[potent kraken]

I updated the template in the package I use myself to support an opening direction based on the player's facing.

[sleek jewel]

where is the item visual located for the fence gate in the pack, assuming there is one?

[faint epoch]

There isn't one for the fence gate
