/give written_book inconsistencies

[burnt locust]

Version: vanilla 1.19

I want to give players a written book that displays their score of some resources like the xp they have

Since you can't use @s or selectors like that in written books if the player is not an operator, what I did was use fake player name in scoreboard that can be displayed, for example I'm the function to give the book /scoreboard players operation xp Display = @s XP and then /give @s written books using the xp Display selector.

The problem is that players get other player's scores in their written book. I debugged it using also a tellraw to display the score and that works fine, but the written book just shows another player's score

The player not being an op does 't prevent the book from reading the player score.

You should be able to use them.

The Player only has to be op to use click commands that require op permissions.

[burnt locust]

when a non operator gets the book it reads as raw json text

[feral kite]

show commands

[burnt locust]

that is the function execute as the players

[feral kite]

hm, it's not possible

get other player's scores

Can you demonstrate this? @burnt locust

[burnt locust]

there you can see that there is a tick that executes this function as any player that does not have a written book, and i got a different stat as the chat said

in the tellraw i displayed the exact same scores in the book, but in the book it displayed another player's

[feral kite]

what is the server core?

[feral kite]

show tick function

[burnt locust]

wdym

[feral kite]

You have several players

[burnt locust]

yes but i mean what is a server core

like the tick.json?

[burnt locust]

i made all that random selection and limit to try if that made it not get another player's scores but didnt work

that function is permanently scheduled on one tick

[feral kite]

I'm checking it out.

[feral kite]

wait, @s works

[burnt locust]

it just shows as raw json

using any selectors like @e @p @a @s does that

only way is to use fixed names

like _Kirtash

[feral kite]

I forgot to turn off the operator. It doesn't work, you're right.

in this case, macros are needed, which are not available on version 1.19.

why are you on such an old version?

[burnt locust]

what is macros?

but why does the book display other player's scores?

is this a bug in minecraft?

[burnt locust]

i dont know if i can port ir

[feral kite]

just port it. it is always better to update the datapack if a new version is released.

[feral kite]

roughly speaking, these are variables. instead of specifying score, you can directly insert numbers as text.

this is an example of logic, there will be more text on the commands;

macro = @s <score>
{"text":"$(macro)"}

instead
{"score":{"name":"@s","objective":"<score>"}}

[burnt locust]

i dont really understand

is this a type of function opr predictate?

btw porting to what version should i?

[feral kite]

just latest

1.21.4

the higher the version, the more new features it has. But there are also a lot of things that need to be changed compared to the old versions.

[feral kite]

will you upgrade to the new version? We will also help you with updating your datapack.

[burnt locust]

yea guess so

[burnt locust]

but maybe its a bit too much

becouse of fps and allat

[feral kite]

the new versions are more optimized than the old ones

[burnt locust]

do command change much?

my datapack is kinda big

and i have custom model data, songs

[feral kite]

yes, they have changed a lot compared to 1.19, even custom model data. But it's better to start updating now than to finish and forget about it on the old version. You will also learn new functions during this time.

[burnt locust]

will do i guess
