tick

[shadow panther]

I was wondering how to get a command working every tick bc for me tick.json acts like a one-time command and not every single tick

[sweet cave]

can you show the code in tick.json and tick.mcfunction?

[fading stirrup]

In tick.mcfunction, @s doesn't mean anything, since the function is run as the server

You would want to do execute as @a if items entity @s ...

That runs the command as all players, so @s refers to each player individually

[shadow panther]

so I should change the @s to @a?

[fading stirrup]

No

That would check if any player has the item and give the effect to all players

Do what I said above

[shadow panther]

but wouldn't it give the effect to only the player who have the item?

[fading stirrup]

What? Changing @s to @a, or my method?

[shadow panther]

the @s to @a

[fading stirrup]

No

execute if items @a ... checks if any of the players on the server have the item

effect give @a ... gives an effect to all players on the server

[shadow panther]

so what should I change so that it only gives the effect only to the player who has the trident?

[fading stirrup]

But execute as @a runs a command as each player individually, so you can check item for @s and give effects separately

[fading stirrup]

I told you, here

[shadow panther]

will it run every tick?

[fading stirrup]

Yes

It already is, but since @s refers to no one, nothing is happening

[shadow panther]

I dont think it works, I dont regain the effect after I hold the item again

[fading stirrup]

Show the command you are using

[shadow panther]

in?

[fading stirrup]

In tick.mcfunction

[fading stirrup]

Hmm ok

Try adding a /say command in tick.mcfunction to check if it's actually running

[shadow panther]

it worked but not every tick

[unborn cobalt]

Think your folder names are wrong. Are you in 1.21?

[shadow panther]

yes

[unborn cobalt]

Your namespace's function folder is named correctly, but minecraft/tags/functions should be minecraft/tags/function

[shadow panther]

now it worked, thank you!
