Abstract
This data pack translates player actions into booleans. I chose to use scoreboard objectives to represent the booleans ({score=1} == True, {score=0} == False). These objective scores are read-only and should NOT be modified manually in-game.
Installation
Install
- Step 1 Download "Bools-Datapack-Squid-Workshop-1.16.5.zip".
- Step 2 Go to minecraft saves directory, usually "C:/Users/youUserName/AppData/Roaming/.minecraft/saves".
- Step 3 Choose the world folder in which you want to install the packs.
- Step 4 Go to ../datapacks folder.
- Step 5 Move "Bools-Datapack-Squid-Workshop-1.16.5.zip" into ../datapacks folder.
- Step 6 Open Minecraft and open the world.
- Step 7 Type '/reload" command then press enter.
- Step 8 Enjoy
PS: If not working, check whether the datapack is enabled by:
/datapack list
Enable it by:
/datapack enable "datapackname"
Uninstall
-
Step 1 Delete the zip file from ../datapacks folder.
-
Step 2 Use command:
/function app:unload/bools
This automatically deletes all the scoreboard objectives created in this datapack.
Usage
You can use the selector or if-statement in repeating command to check if players have the scores. Try running the commands below in a repeating command block.
- This command gives an apple to players that jumped:
/execute as @a[scores={jump_bool=1}] run give @s minecraft:apple 1- This command gives 1 second regeneration effect to players that start sleeping:
/execute as @a[scores={sleep_begin=1}] run effect give @s minecraft:regeneration 1 1 true These boolean scores check two types of actions: Level and Edge. \
Level action scores := (keep setting to 1 whenever) player is doing something\
Edge action scores := (set to 1 for one tick if) player did something
