Disabling Attacking

[faint dew]

I'd like to be able to prevent the player from attacking mobs without having weapons overwrite it. If I change the player's base attributes, holding an item with an attack attribute allows the player to attack again. Is there a way around this, or a different way to prevent a player from hitting entities?

instead of changing the players base attributes, give them an attribute modifier with a value of -1 and an operation of add_multiplied_total

Oh you can add attribute modifiers to the player? I checked the wiki and it only said that was possible with items

Items are one way to apply attribute modifiers to the player, but you can also just use the /attribute command

Okay after playing around with the command I see what you're talking about, thanks!
