Block Overlay Skript

[steveshatt]

Hey everyone, I made a cool script for block overlay to let you know where you place! It still has some minor bugs so I'll fix those soon, but for now enjoy! 

To my knowledge it doesn't cause lag.

Original code made by me steveshat (ofc)

Requirements:

- SkBee

- Skript

 

 

import:
	org.bukkit.World

options:
    color: pink

function displayBlockOverlay(player: player, location: location):
	set {_point::1} to {_location} ~ vector(0.5, -0.5, 0.5)
	set {_point::2} to {_location} ~ vector(-0.5, -0.5, 0.5)
	set {_point::3} to {_location} ~ vector(-0.5, -0.5, -0.5)
	set {_point::4} to {_location} ~ vector(0.5, -0.5, -0.5)
	loop 2 times:
		loop 4 times:
			make 1 of dust using dustOption({@color}, 0.5) at getLineLocations(({_point::%loop-integer-2%} ~ {_offset}), (({_point::%loop-integer-2 + 1%} ? {_point::1}) ~ {_offset})) to {_player}
			if loop-integer-1 is 1:
				make 1 of dust using dustOption({@color}, 0.5) at getLineLocations(({_point::%loop-integer-2%}), ({_point::%loop-integer-2%} ~ vector(0,1,0))) to {_player}
		set {_offset} to vector(0,1,0)

function getLineLocations(location1: location, location2: location, density: integer=10) :: locations:
	set {_vector} to vector between {_location1} and {_location2}
	add {_location1} to {_return::*}
	loop {_density} times:
		set vector length of {_vector} to loop-integer/{_density} * (distance between {_location1} and {_location2})
		add ({_location1} ~ {_vector}) to {_return::*}
	return {_return::*}

every tick:
	loop all players where [{blockoverlay::%input's uuid%} is set]:
		set {_rayTrace.Result} to (loop-player's world).rayTraceBlocks(location of loop-player's eyes, (vector from yaw (loop-player's yaw) and pitch (loop-player's pitch)), 5)
		set {_rayTrace.hitBlock} to {_rayTrace.Result}.getHitBlock()
		set {_rayTrace.hitBlockFace} to "%{_rayTrace.Result}.getHitBlockFace()%"
		if {_rayTrace.hitBlockFace} is "UP":
			set {_focusedArea} to vector(0,1,0)
		else if {_rayTrace.hitBlockFace} is "SOUTH":
			set {_focusedArea} to vector(0,0,1)
		else if {_rayTrace.hitBlockFace} is "NORTH":
			set {_focusedArea} to vector(0,0,-1)
		else if {_rayTrace.hitBlockFace} is "DOWN":
			set {_focusedArea} to vector(0,-1,0)
		else if {_rayTrace.hitBlockFace} is "EAST":
			set {_focusedArea} to vector(1,0,0)
		else if {_rayTrace.hitBlockFace} is "WEST":
			set {_focusedArea} to vector(-1,0,0)
		displayBlockOverlay(loop-player, ({_rayTrace.hitBlock} ~ {_focusedArea}))

command /blockoverlay [<string="help">]:
	trigger:
		if arg-1 is "help":
			send "&6Block Overlay Help:"
			send "1. /blockoverlay off"
			send "2. /blockoverlay on"
		else if arg-1 is "on":
			set {blockoverlay::%player's uuid%} to true
			send "&aYou turned on the Block Overlay!"
		else if arg-1 is "off":
			delete {blockoverlay::%player's uuid%}
			send "&cYou turned off the Block Overlay!"
		else:
			player command "/blockoverlay"

Fixed the particles to be client sided

New code using ray tracing + better line function

this is so epic now i know where all my blocks are going to be placed 

[skwiptasdf]

Placing has NEVER been easier!

[skwiptasdf]

just look at where you'd like to place, and you'll see exactly where you'd like to place!

This is so true!

How did I place blocks before this?!?!

I was thinking the same thing!

Fun Code, Not to glitchy as well

Sub-Optimal, using vectors would achieve a greater performance. Find example attached if curious.

 i have never seen more sub-optimal code than whatever obfuscated nonsense that pastebin contains. Don't insult Block Overlay Skript By steveshatt again.

Would you please explain any inquiries or issues with the scripts functionality please? If not then I expect for there to be no argument on this being better.

Changes in the one I posted:
More optimised Code
More configurable

{_s} is literally just 0.5
~s does not appear

Unless you have any functionality errors I see no such problem with the script I have posted.

To counter such evidence I must say that Devil.Sk is 

A. No proof to be me
B. The skript works, the message was edited about 20 minutes ago
C. There is no proof it is not superior

Thank you for taking your time to read this,

Love you,

I counteract your evidence by disabling Devil.sk. If you would now please delete your profile.

Lots of love,

It would leave you in to much fright.
