Conditional

• /aai

  • Main command

• action

  • Subcommand

• placeBlock

  • The action subcommand.

• (conditional|look|position)

  • conditional

    This can be used to search for a block near the entity using conditions.

    • itemToPlace
      • The item you wish to place.
    • searchRadius
      • The area in which the target block will be searched for.
    • slotCount
      • The total number of inventory slots the entity has.
      • This is used when placing items from the entity's inventory.
    • targetBlock
      • The block which you will be found first.
    • conditionBlock
      • The block used for the condition!
    • tags
      • Tags are used for configuring the command.
      • Each tag runs a part of the script.
        • -S: When added as a tag the block state will be kept.
        • -D: When added as a tag the block inventory and NBT will be kept.
        • -B: If you are using buckets of water or lava then you can use bucket mode to place liquids.
        • -I: When used this will require the item to be in the entity's inventory.
        • -C: Only used when -I is added to the list but will make it like creative mode.
        • -H: Will allow you to use NBT Hooks
        • -T: When T is used you can replace the block using a targetBlock instead.
    • face
      • The fact that the conditionBlock should be on from your search location.
        • north: Will test for the conditional block on this side of the target block.
        • east: Will test for the conditional block on this side of the target block.
        • south: Will test for the conditional block on this side of the target block.
        • west: Will test for the conditional block on this side of the target block.
        • up: Will test for the conditional block on this side of the target block.
        • down: Will test for the conditional block on this side of the target block.
    • rotation
      • This attempts to override the block's rotation after it has been placed.
        • north: Will try to rotate the block to face this side.
        • east: Will try to rotate the block to face this side.
        • south: Will try to rotate the block to face this side.
        • west: Will try to rotate the block to face this side.
        • up: Will try to rotate the block to face this side.
        • down: Will try to rotate the block to face this side.
    • hookOutput
      • If you are using the hook tag -H then you can set a string variable to be set once the action was complete.
