So, we all know how the vanilla bow must be held and "charged up" before it can fire, how do I set this fire delay with my ranged item? I like the instant fire capability for other things but for this particular case it doesn't fit.
Currently, you can't change it.
I sir have found a tempo solution thats a bit naff but it works ish. i created an account to say this
I added a bow draw time global variable then checking on player tick if has item in hand, and added 0.08 to it if a player is holding the bow
i then made a can fire if procedure:
this checks whether the player has been holding(charging) it for over a value of 2 this is roughly the full time it takes to charge
once player has used the bow i set the variable back to 0
its not perfect but stops spam of bows like guns, makiong the player use the bow more like a bow, yes you can spam the bow with a right click every few seconds but maybe in the future we can have a procedure called onHoldRightClick then check item to add draw time.
yet this isnt perfect but enough with the limitations mcreator has, hopw this is somewhat useful
