How to prevent the use of swords

[hollow vine]

I want to prevent the use of swords until a Stage is hit from the GameStages mod. Is this smth a datapack can do?

[warm dirge]

I'd imagine setting the attack speed to -1 while holding any sword would work

Until the stage is reached

Idk what mod is that but there is often a way you could detect whatever stages you're after

okay so i tried to make a predicate that checks if the player is holding a sword and if they have a tag i assigned from the gamestages mod but the game wont recognize my predicate

ive tried making the most simple predicate and the game cant see it

no errors in log

literally my predicate rn
{ "condition": "minecraft:entity_properties", "entity": "this", "predicate": { "equipment": { "mainhand": { "items": "minecraft:beef" } } } }

still doesnt show up in "/execute if predicate " tab autocomplete

its located in datapacks/datapack_name/data/datapack_name/predicate

and its loaded into the world

i can set functions but not predicates

OMG

OMG

ITS PREDICATES

WITH AN S

ARE YOU KIDDING ME

im crashing out

if you're using an older version yea it's with an S

I think 1.19.something made it so the folder is now called "predicate"

rather than "predicates"
