🔧 Functions#

You can find below all the function available in this module.

Aimed block#

bs.view:aimed_block

Places an entity in the block the source is looking at.

Inputs
(execution) as <entities>

The entities from which you want to get the aimed block.

Outputs
(state) new entity created

The entity is created at the aimed block. It can be identified by the tag bs.view.AimedBlock and the score bs.id.parent corresponding to the ID of the entity executing the function. If there was already an entity with the tag bs.view.AimedBlock and the same bs.id.parent, it will be replaced.

In case there is no ID system

If you don’t have an ID system, this function have to be used on 1 entity at a time. THe score bs.id.parent will then not be used. An ID system can be added using the bs.id module.

Example

Place in entity on the aimed block:

# Once
function bs.view:aimed_block
