How do you make a value-dependent variable scoreboard objective? (Command Blocks, 1.16.5)

Posted: 30 Apr 2021 03:40 AM PDT

It's a bit difficult to explain in the title - basically, what I'm doing is making a Red vs. Blue team game that's almost completely powered by command blocks for its inner workings. A friend of mine helped me with the start, but he's become burned out and has shown me how a lot of it works so far so that I can continue it on my own.

The gamemode puts people in a small arena separated by a wall cutting off the entire middle, where people fight it out after the walls fall in a certain amount of time. Command blocks power most of it, but there's also an operator that controls a panel above the arena. I could just have the operator press a button to trigger some command blocks to say a team has won, but I want to cut out as much of this manual operation as possible.

The teams win via a kill requirement that varies based on how many teammates there are. Teams are selected evenly, but there can be times when there is an extra member on one of the two teams due to it not being even. This is fine, as the win requirement is that teams must get to 5 kills per person on the team. If there were 7 people on a team, it would require 35 kills to win. If the other team had 6 people, it would require 30 kills.

My problem: I've already worked out the combined number of kills. I don't know how to set a variable based on the number of players on the team, which (once the requirements are met) then triggers a series of command blocks to say a team has won.

It should also be noted that this is being done on a 1.16.5 (latest) Paper server with EssentialsX, WorldGuard, and some other QoL plugins.

TL;DR - Need a command, based on a # of teammates on one of two teams, that determines a playercount-based win requirement of kills.

Function not looping [mcfunction]

Posted: 30 Apr 2021 12:38 AM PDT

So I am extremely immature and want to create a "poop" function in Minecraft Java edition. The problem is, it's not looping. Here's my idea: When you run the function, it will wait for the one who run it to crouch. When that happens, it should summon a cocoa bean named "poop" and play a sound. After that, it should not summon another item or play another sound unless it is run again. Here's the code I wrote for it:

tag @s[tag=!pooping, name=!Server] add pooping    execute if entity @s[name=!Server] run scoreboard objectives add pooperCount dummy  execute if entity @s[name=!Server] run scoreboard players set count pooperCount 0    execute if entity @s[name=!Server] run execute as @a[tag=pooping] run scoreboard players add count entityCount 1  execute if entity @s[name=!Server] run execute if score count pooperCount matches 2.. run tellraw @s {"text": "Only one person can poop at a time"}  execute if entity @s[name=!Server] run execute if score count pooperCount matches 2.. run tag @s remove pooping    execute if entity @s[name=!Server] run scoreboard objectives remove pooperCount    execute unless entity @a[tag=pooping, scores={Sneak=0..}] run scoreboard objectives add Sneak minecraft.custom:minecraft.crouch_one_cm    execute if entity @a[tag=pooping, scores={Sneak=1..}] run summon item ~ ~-1 ~ {Item:{id:"minecraft:cocoa_beans", Count: 1b, tag:{display:{Name:'{"text":"poop"}'}}}}  execute if entity @a[tag=pooping, scores={Sneak=1..}] run playsound block.stone.break player @s    execute if entity @a[tag=pooping, scores={Sneak=1..}] run scoreboard objectives remove Sneak    # just for testing  say hi    execute if entity @a[tag=pooping, scores={Sneak=0}] run schedule function crab:poop 1s replace

Now what actually happens when I run this code (after reloading)?: The first time I run it: I only say "hi" once, and the Sneak objective is not removed. The second time depends: If I crouched before running it, the poop is summoned immediately and the sound plays, and the Sneak objective is removed. If I didn't crouch, nothing is played or summoned, and the Sneak objective is not removed. In both of these cases, I only say "hi" once.

So I guess my looping technique is wrong.

Is there any significance to a weapon's weight?

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 06:33 PM PDT

I am currently in the first part of NieR: Replicant for the PS4, and I have obtained a number of one-handed swords. Each sword has its own unique stats, story, length, and weight.

As far as weight goes, there are various stats ranging from very light to heavy. I have seen slight differences in attack range while wielding longer weapons, yet I have not seen any differences when using weapons of different weights. I would have expected this to affect combo speed in battle, or movement speed while traveling the overworld, but this does not seem to the case as far as I can tell.

What is the significance to a weapon's weight, if any at all?

Is there any way to get rid of the 'infinity' button in Cookie Clicker?

Posted: 30 Apr 2021 03:06 AM PDT

I let my friend use my computer, and she wanted to play cookie clicker after I showed her. I left to go to the bathroom, and when I came back, she had hacked the game so it said infinity in the place where the number of cookies usually goes. Please help!

Removing Tag/Scoreboard Value from Offline Players

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 04:35 PM PDT

For my Minecraft: Bedrock Edition Realm, I am creating a system where players can purchase access to a certain area for 24 hours. So far, I have created the purchasing system and 24-hour timer. When a player purchases access, they are given a tag so that they and only they can enter the area during the time period. After the time is up, the tag must be removed so someone else can purchase access. The problem arises if they are offline when the time is up. I currently have no way to remove the tag from them if they are offline, and waiting until they come online again means the whole system is stuck until they come back (if they do) meaning no one else can purchase access until they come back. I want a solution that will allow a reset of the system when the time ends, allowing someone else to rent soon after. I am open to using scoreboard objectives instead of tags if that seems like a better option.

My screen is flashing when joining a world/server [closed]

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 12:56 PM PDT

It just flashes white, i hear the sounds but i can't see anything because of the flashing. the solution was removing optifine, but i need optifine for the resource pack. this wasn't happening before, it just started happening without any reason. tried to reinstall optifine and isntall different versions but it still happens. I switched mods before it happened but no mods were in the mods folder except for the ones i needed to join the server.

Need help with controls

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 02:34 PM PDT

I'm currently playing Super Mario Frustration on my NES emulator.

I'm struggling with some controls. I don't know how to make a jump that looks like this and that. I couldn't replicate it no matter what.

I need some hints. How should I press buttons (A, B, up, down, left, right) to make these jumps?

Any free codes to rollback Europa Universalis 4 and other Paradox games without using their official forum?

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 12:24 PM PDT

I would like to play a modded older versions of some Paradox games.

Is there any free code for doing the rollback to previous versions on steam? Or any other way to rollback without using their official forum and without linking my steam account to them? Even beside the privacy issues and personal dislike for their forum and for them, their "correct procedure" to do the rollback is an annoying mess.

How can I unlock the 'Hour of Alpacas' achievement, given there hasn't been an event in years?

Posted: 30 Apr 2021 12:00 AM PDT

The 'Hour of the Alpacas' is a date/time-based achievement.

Hour of Alpacas - Participate in Alpaca Hour

The idea being that every once in a while, Age of Mythology: Extended Edition's developers (Skybox Labs) will launch the 'Hour of the Alpacas' event. If you start a match during one of these events, the achievement will pop.

I personally dislike achievements like this - it's not a showcase of skill, or a prompt to complete a challenge a certain way, you just have to be lucky enough to be playing the game when the developers decide to activate the event. Which, ok fine... but the developers haven't launched an Alpacas event in about 5 years. As a bit of a closet completionist, stalking AOM and Skybox's Twitter accounts hoping for an event is wearing a bit thin.

Is there some other way to trigger this mostly-pointless achievement?

My Xbox Friend keeps getting kicked out of my PS4 Minecraft world

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 04:45 PM PDT

I don't know how to fix this problem! Within 5 minutes of loading in he gets kicked out! This doesn't happen to anyone else on the server. If anyone else is on at the time they get kicked out too. If he's on with just me he still gets kicked out!!. We've tried turning down render distance, turning off unnecessary visual effects like clouds and stuff but it doesn't help! Please help I just want to play with my friend.

Ps. We are playing together using our Microsoft accounts is that the problem??

Is it possible to disable text chat on battlefront 2 (classic 2005)

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 11:36 PM PDT

The question pretty much says it. Is it possible to disable text chat, through settings, or maybe there's a cheat I can use that would be allowed on online servers? I haven't seen anything in the settings, but I could be missing it.

Making multiple textures appear randomly

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 01:02 PM PDT

Im currently in work of making a texture pack, that changes the Ender Dragon, but i wanted to make it more interesting, and make the dragon appear different each time you fight it, without making any mods since im not really experienced with making mods. I have just 2 textures of the Dragon done, but each of them has different layouts because it was easier for me to do it. I also have a .propeties file for it, but i still don't know how to make it random so that each 1-2 times when the dragon respawns, the texture from the folder would be randomly chosen, and the chosen texture would replace the default texture of the dragon. Is it even possible to do without mods?

How can I make it so when a specific player hit an entity, it gets an effect?

I'm doing my server and each person has like a power or some kind and one player when they hit anything that thing gets levitation. I am not sure how to do it, but I'm fine if you tell me it's too hard or you can't make it for every entity with every player.

I am not the greatest at command. My version is I am not sure but I know it's the latest I think 1.16.3?

Files restored to Starbound's workshop folder won't appear ingame

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 02:03 PM PDT

I previously backed up all my Starbound mods needed for a save, and now some files are corrupted and I want to restore my copy of the contents of the workshop/content/211820 folder that I saved on my Google Drive. When I put them back into the 211820 folder, Steam does not show the mods as subscribed, and they do not appear in-game.
Verifying game integrity and restarting Steam or my computer has no effects.

How to spread players that are in a certain area

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 04:33 PM PDT

I am making a server where I want to spread the players in the lobby A to Area A without it affecting the players in Lobby B or C. I hope that makes since. This is in Minecraft Bedrock Edition.

I tried:

/spreadplayers -96 -4 0 30 @a[x=-21,y=0,r=10]

But even when I have someone in that area it says "No targets matched selector".

Vanilla Minecraft crashes with EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION after changing RAM

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 08:53 PM PDT

I changed the RAM in my PC (went from 2x4G to 2x8G). Since then, Minecraft refuses to start, whether I'm running Forge or vanilla. It doesn't always crash at the same point; sometimes before starting loading, a couple times immediately after starting to load the world, and most often while loading.

I've tried to look around but almost all information for this type of crash relates to Intel integrated graphics (and this is not the case). Pretty much the only good info I've found is here: Minecraft EXCEPTION ACCESS VIOLATION, but it does not have a solution.

I have already reinstalled both Minecraft and Java, and I've updated all drivers. I ran MemTest86 like it says there for a full pass without errors, and I've run LinX like it says and it stopped for an error after a couple of runs, but I don't know what that means.

The RAM appears to otherwise work fine.

PC specs

  • Intel i5 750 quad core 2.67 GHz
  • Nvidia GeForce GTX 950
  • Intel SSD 256 G
  • HDD 1T (shouldn't matter, nothing relevant is installed here)

Upon further investigation, it seems like there's a chance of experiencing this kind of crash while entering world ONLY. I made a completely vanilla (no forge) instance and it's happened too. It's since happened 3-4 times out of about 20 attempts.

Here's the log for vanilla Minecraft without Forge or mods:

Android Minecraft always shows as Steve

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 03:00 PM PDT

I'm new to Minecraft and have installed it on my daughters tablet.

She logs in with her MS child account.

On the main menu screen, if I tap on Profile I can see her User Name but on the main menu, she always shows as Steve! I am able to update the character's appearance so I know it's saving changes.

I have no idea who Steve is and I don't even know a Steve.

enter image description here

Is what I'm experiencing correct? Can I change the name Steve?

x360ce emulator error message: Error calling SetupDiGetDeviceRegistryPropertyW: 122

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 08:06 PM PDT

I downloaded the latest version of x360ce. But when I try to run I'm facing with this error message:

Error calling SetupDiGetDeviceRegistryPropertyW: 122.

This doesn't happen with the older versions (but these old versions didn't work with the Ancestors game). I have also installed the latest .NET Framework. How can I get this to work? Or are there any other alternatives? This is on Windows 10.

Having trouble positioning my map art in Minecraft

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 11:57 PM PDT

I am trying to create a map-art in Minecraft. The standard map is 128x128 blocks in size, so I have built a 128x128 pixel art. However, I am struggling to position myself when I create it such that only my creation shows on the map. I have rebuilt it so it lines up with the chunk borders. For reference, the map-art is 8x8 chunks. Am I misunderstanding something? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Start GTA in Online mode

Posted: 30 Apr 2021 12:22 AM PDT

I almost exclusively play GTA Online these days (I can't remember the last time I played Story mode). I just wondered if there were a way to make the game start in Online mode automatically without me having to press X (PS3) each time whilst the game's loading?

Will Jordis the Sword-Maiden ever use the bow that I made for her?

Posted: 30 Apr 2021 12:59 AM PDT

Jordis the Sword Maiden is my new companion after spending the first 40 levels exploring with Lydia, getting into fights, watching her take a knee, waiting for her to catch her breath, take a few swings, rinse and repeat.

After a few missions in Solitude, Jordis and I became partners (and Lydia took the long walk home). While working on my smithing and enchantment skills, I made her a delightful ebony with a swell fire enchantment. Sadly, she has completely snubbed my efforts. For some reason, she really prefers her clunky old log of a bow.

Can I convince Jordis to at least try the new bow? It's really quite nice. Besides, it matches her new outfit....
