A function not loading when far from other entities

[ashen lance]

i am not even sure if this is the correct cause, but when using my datapack to make appear a "head" from my weapon, with a fishing rod, it works everywhere for every weapon material except the diamond one, and it seems its when i get to far from entites like item frames, i am not even sure if this is the reason, i don't understand

[limber oriole]

first can you send the code and explain how youre doing this?

i assume youre just making an item display ride the bobber when you use a specially tagged fishing rod

[ashen lance]

Yes !

https://discord.com/channels/935560260725379143/1205075937419329626

[ashen lance]

here i explained everything

[limber oriole]

do you summon the armor stand under the launch function?

nevermind it does, i found it

first thing i can think of is just typos of course..

since its only diamond not working

rather than being far from entities

it might be that youre not spawning it executed from the player, or something like that

in which case it would immediately kill the display from what i understand

when youre not next to world spawn

[ashen lance]

yeah i was thinkin os something like that too

because when tweaking the code and when i augmented the range, i had the same issue but i had to go farther to trigger it

[limber oriole]

yeah definitely sounds like thats the case then :P

[median igloo]

@ashen lance How about this one?

[ashen lance]

😅

i resolved the other one i got it working

sorry for spamming

this one still not for now

[median igloo]

You're not spamming, I'm just going through and checking on quiet threads

[median igloo]

What do you still need help with?

[ashen lance]

i am still trying to figure out why my flail head is disappearing when i am too far from the spawn

as showed in the video

i tried to search in my commands but didn't find anything concluant

[median igloo]

Hmm yeah, by all accounts your location should have no bearing. Are you running anything from command blocks or all data pack?

[ashen lance]

i have command block to give the items thats all

[ashen lance]

and i have ticks functions running

[median igloo]

Can you show the function that is running the spawn function, as well as the spawn function itself?

(assuming the spawn is in a function and not just the command)

[ashen lance]

and the function for the spawn itself

execute at @s positioned ^ ^1.8 ^0.5 run summon minecraft:item_display ~ ~ ~ {item:{id:"carrot_on_a_stick",Count:1,tag:{CustomModelData:50127}},item_display:ground,Tags:["DiamondHeadDisplay"],transformation:{left_rotation:[0.0f,0.0f,0.0f,1.0f],right_rotation:[0.0f,0.0f,0.0f,1.0f],translation:[0.0f,0.0f,0.0f],scale:[2.0f,2.0f,2.0f]}}

ride @e[type=minecraft:item_display,tag=DiamondHeadDisplay,limit=1,sort=nearest] mount @e[type=minecraft:fishing_bobber,tag=DiamondHead,limit=1,sort=nearest]```

[median igloo]

I'm on mobile, so can't see this super easily

[median igloo]

Code block if you don't mind 🙂

[ashen lance]

what is a code block ?

[median igloo]

If you start and end a section of text with ```

format
like this```
Which makes it a bit easier to differentiate different functions, or just what is all one function. Also slightly easier to read

[median igloo]

What is running this function?

Like what entity?

[ashen lance]

wdym

oohh i get it

the player

[median igloo]

Okay, why is the player running a command with @a instead of @s?

Additionally, is this function already being run at the player, too?

[ashen lance]

there was commands that didn't work if i used @s so i assumed that i needed @a for it too

[ashen lance]

normally yes

[median igloo]

Not really a good solution without understanding why it's not working, because this is a case where you may get mixed results on multiplayer

[median igloo]

Ok, well besides the first command needing to use an @s instead of an @a and some minor optimization choices, that function looks fine. So it may be the other one causing problems which I'm not in a position to be able to download and look at right now
