can anyone figure out what's wrong?

[night plinth]

i have execute at @s as @s if predicate event:stalking run playsound minecraft:block.amethyst.step where event:stalking is:

    "condition": "minecraft:entity_properties",
    "entity": "this",
    "predicate": {
      "stepping_on": {
        "block": {
          "blocks": "minecraft:grass_block"
        }
      }
    }
  }

also, the function is running every tick

If it's running in the tick function, @s doesn't exist since it's running as the server

[night plinth]

oh

what can i replace it with?

[raven gale]

You need something like execute as @a at @s if predicate ...

That runs it as every player

[night plinth]

hm

still not working

[raven gale]

I think playsound requires a few more parameters

[bitter onyx]

📜 /playsound

playsound <sound> <source> <targets> [<pos>] [<volume>] [<pitch>] [<minVolume>]

[raven gale]

Yes

[night plinth]

well, ingame it works only with the sound

[raven gale]

Oh ok, maybe this is wrong then

[night plinth]

probally

also, can i tell it to play the sound of the block the player is standing on?

[raven gale]

Not easily I'm afraid

Anyway, try running the command in chat

[night plinth]

uhhh

now i'm even more confused

it said that the sound was played when it wasn't

sry for the ping, i just can't figure it out

[scarlet tiger]

what's the issue

[jagged delta]

Read

[scarlet tiger]

I did

[scarlet tiger]

okay so

you didn't hear the sound?

[night plinth]

nope

[jagged delta]

I know this might sound like a stupid question, but do you have Minecraft sound turned on?

[scarlet tiger]

I'm pretty sure you need to execute the playsound at your location

for you to hear it

[scarlet tiger]

and this

[night plinth]

yeah ofc

[scarlet tiger]

^^^

try /execute at @s run playsound ...

(in chat)

[jagged delta]

The command should already be executing at the position of the player.

[jagged delta]

Still, you could try filling out the rest of this command.

Most importantly the position part.

[scarlet tiger]

<pos> and <target> too

[jagged delta]

Yea

[night plinth]

oh, i think i did figure it out

i didn't say what the sound would be classified at i guess

[scarlet tiger]

yea

<source>

just like

fill out the whole command

[night plinth]

uhm still not working

[scarlet tiger]

what's the command you're running (in-chat)

[night plinth]

/execute at @a as @s if predicate event:stalking run playsound minecraft:block.amethyst.step block @p ~ ~ ~

[jagged delta]

Specify volume and pitch too, just in case it matters.

[granite dragon]

You need to swap your as and at

[scarlet tiger]

are you on a grass block?

[night plinth]

yeah

[night plinth]

why?

[scarlet tiger]

...because

you do

are you doing this in chat

or in the datapack

[night plinth]

i'm trying both

and i still don't hear it

[scarlet tiger]

well

it wouldn't matter if it was in chat

(you still need to swap them for your datapack)

[jagged delta]

The AS specifies whom to run the command as, and AT specifies the location that the command will run. Things don’t work as intended if you put the AT first.

[scarlet tiger]

which again wouldn't matter in a singleplayer world chat, but for your datapack you'll need it

anyways

[granite dragon]

I've seen it affect things in singleplayer

[scarlet tiger]

try increasing the volume

[night plinth]

it is increased

[scarlet tiger]

(like the volume in the command)

[night plinth]

uhm

apparently

now it works

i changed from "at @s" to "at @p"
