Check entity motion

[patent spade]

How do i check if a players x and y motion is zero

execute if data only allows for checking the entire array of motion values

[nbt={}] is basically the same

i can't execute store result score because the values will be rounded to 0 most of the time

for this kind of thing i usually just use an absurdly large scale-up, Y motion is technically a very slight downward movement when the player is standing on a surface (im assuming its gravity or something) so you can basically sub that result as the “0” for Y movement (e.g. iirc if you get Y movement at a scale of 1000 it comes out as -79)

yea i wont be checking y motion anyways because that doesn't matter here

[mighty torrent]

oh did you mean x and z?

[patent spade]

yea

oops

[mighty torrent]

anyways same method would work, no? just large scale?

[hard gust]

I think u'll have to make a marker and if the maker is at the same position as before u didn't move

[patent spade]

yea but how do scale it up- hold up what the heck is wrong with me i never wanted to check motion in the first place

[mighty torrent]

dang

[patent spade]

i wanted to compare rotation values

yea i know how to do that

[mighty torrent]

but if you execute store result score run data get entity @s Motion[0] 1000 it would be a scale of 1000

but anyways

[patent spade]

oh you can do that with data commands?

why did i not know that

[mighty torrent]

ig the long nights of working on datapack jam are getting to you…

[patent spade]

i tried using execute store result score int 100 but that only works for storages because scores are always ints probably

[patent spade]

lmao probably

thank you for your help anyways :D

[mighty torrent]

ah i see
