Hi Nerdy
I made an account just to make this comment :)
This is genuinely a really fantastic plugin that greatly broadens the uses for MCreator so thank you very much for that.
One thing I think may be a great addition to this plugin (I am not sure if it is possible based off of what JAVA code allows within the Minecraft platform) but to be able to save a players skin to the server as a .png file and then load it onto a player from the server using the saved name.
This could have multiple uses but one example would be players saving a few .png files under their name to the server and loading different skins within the game afterwards?
Anyway just wanted to say thanks and mention my idea :)
Would it be possible to get a Util "get current worlds directory" or something to get the serverconfig location inside the world directory?
I know I could techincally use the "get current worlds name" and get that location, but that brings up a few issues.
1. Same issue as previous comment mentions with the directories being named differently from how the world is named.
2. If the server and client saves are in the same directory as they are when testing with MCreator, there's no way to know if it's multiplayer or singleplayer and for what directory to enter (saves/world or world). If I test for some file that only exists on server then even if I load into a singleplayer world it'd return true.
I could use Global variable to store what I need, but that requires you to save the world for it to be stored in /data. For what I need it needs to update that rather frequently and saving that often, at least with more mods, will just lag the game constantly.
Hi Nerdy, wanted to say that code block "Get current world's name", doesnt return the world directory name, but the world in game name, as such, if you create a world named "New World" twice, you cannot write to the second one, as one has the dir name of "New World" and the second "New World (1)", and in both worlds the code block returns "New World".
Additionally, if you create a world "Example" and through minecraft rename it to "Eksample", it will return "Eksample" which will cause issues as the directory is still named "Example" and because of that, you cant write anything to that world anymore as directory "Eksample" does not exist. Please suggest workarounds for now. I hope to hear from you.
I am having an issue with text entry of JSON Array. (I am on 2024.2). Whenever I try to get the text entry for a JSON array from index, if the index is a variable, I get an error in console. The error is: error: "incompatible types: possible lossy conversion from double to int"
So I found a workaround, but it's annoying. First, I placed round blocks behind all of my local variables. Then, I went into the custom code editor and just placed (int) directly in front of any Math.round() functions. Seems to work fine, just sucks having to lock and unlock the code whenever I make modifications.
Hello, I installed the plugin but I have a problem... FYI I am in 2024.2 and it tells me that the plugin is loaded...
When I open a procedure I have the "file manager" tab displayed with all the blocks, but when I want to create a file I have to declare a "file" variable, but this type of variable is not not accessible (does not exist...). I recreated a new workspace, without success... Could you tell me where the problem is?
PS: I have plugin 1.16.5 and sorry for the English: I'm not English...
Could this be used to edit vanilla recipes in game? Like say an event in game causes a recipe to change or the recipe changes based on other factors like the world seed or the likes, would that be feasible?
