You can use the player_hurt_entity advancement and the entity_hurt_entity advancements.

thats what i have so far in a function

and then a scoreboard for hit_player

using scoreboard objectives add hit_player minecraft.custom:minecraft.damage_dealt

but when i test it using entity's it says zombie found zombie

when i dealt the damage?

[grim wigeon]

i feel like that would only works once wouldnt it?

because it would count as an achievement right?

[rancid grail]

you can revoke them in the function that they run as a reward to reset them.

You use too many context changes. It outputs exactly what you tell it to.

first it targets all players with the hit score

then it changes the position to that player

next it runsthe command as 1 entity that is in a 3 block distance

(which doesn't have to be the entity you hit)

the you tellraw to every player (but still executed as the hit entity)

in the tellraw you target the executing entity (the zombie) and any entity in the distance with the hurt tag (again the zombie)

It's best to use advancements to give the tags to players (hurt and attacker) then in the tick funktioniert make it call a function to tellraw that and remove the tags. It's very unlikely that multiple people hit each other in the exact same tick, so we don't have to care about where they are.

You can then simply use this tellraw:

tellraw @a [{"selector":"@a[tag=attacker]"},"found",{"selector":"@a[tag=hurt]"},"!"]

[grim wigeon]

im new to the advancement catagory

im only used to functions and kinda loot_tables

managed to figure it out with 4 command blocks.

Best use this tool for all kinds of json files. It's your best friend in datapack making.

(criteria can have any name you want, I just chose "hurt" in this case)

It will look like this. You only have to put in your function path.

There are only 3 important fields you need to fill out.

• Trigger
• The source entity type/Target entity type
• Function to execute as reward
