So far i have acheived this, but it uses the tick.json tag to test if a player has an arrow then runs a function that clears 1 arrow and gives 1 spectral arrow.
im wondering if there is a better way to do this with nbt data

using nbt checks or modifications is never the better way
storm ingot
removing and giving 1 at a time cant be much better xD

you don't have to do it one by one
you c an clear all of them and store that value in a scoreboard
then use a loot table that drops spectral arrow to give them backl to the player.
add a set_count function to the loot table that uses scoreboard as the item count

im gonna need a little hand holding for this, never touched loot tables before
first, how do i store the value of all arrows the player has or will have

that's all you need inthe loot table
oblique ermine
first, how do i store the value of all arrows the player has or will have
just combine the execute store command with the clear command
/clear always returns the number of cleared items
storm ingot
something like this?
oblique ermine
@s works too, if you store the number in the players scoreboard instead of a fake player.
storm ingot
gonna have to be per player
oblique ermine
but you don't have to make it fixed
storm ingot
i need it so that only those who can use it, use it. unless im overthinking it
oblique ermine
I know, but that also works if you use one scoreboard for all players
they don't get evaluated parallel, but in sequence
so it doesn't matter
storm ingot
palyer a then player b?
storm ingot
this should only be running for specific players anyway i suppose
storm ingot
for context, im makign a skill tree with puffish skills, some people will have this passive ability and others wont
oblique ermine
still won't interfere with each other
storm ingot
its only gonna be ran for specific players anyway, so i dont need @s in the loot table
me overthinking and over complicating a simple thing ;-;
oblique ermine
but if you want to use @s, do it like this
if you want to use the players score, you need this
storm ingot
if player a picks up 128 arrows and player b 64 arrows in the same tick they should both only get the specified amount they picked up with no errors
oblique ermine
When your system runs (assuming you only use a collective single score) first player a gets their arrows removed amd the amound stored in the scoreboard. Then the loot table uses that number to give them the new arrows.
Then player b gets their arrows removed and the new amount (64) overwrites the old one (128) so player b will only get his 64 arrows from the loot table.
When you store the amount in every players own scoreboad they will work the same but they only overwrite their own scores.

When you store the amount in every players own scoreboad they will work the same...
useful info to have, not necessary for this though right?
storm ingot
that's all you need inthe loot table
under count you havve the object name as count, what does that mean?
oblique ermine

either way, you don't have to worry about this at all in your case as it will work no matter how you do it.
oblique ermine
that's the fixed name of the fake player.
oblique ermine
fixed means it uses a constant name, not a dynamic target (like @s or This)

/execute as @a[tag=saturn_test] run execute store result score count clear run clear @s minecraft:arrow
this gets rid of the arrows and stores the amount to the objective clear, how do i run the loot table?
oblique ermine
/execute should only contain 1 execute and 1 run
