Detection for Player positions

[Colton]

So im trying to make it so if a player is 10 blocks or closer to them it will warn they player

So player from team 2 is 10 or less blocks away transmit on a channel and im using block code cuz i know it will use and this is what i have that might speed up the prosses

This is within a trigger that when anyone moves (player scoped) it triggers and my goal is to check for it the player is on team 1 or team 2

Team 1: Check where the player is at all times
Team: 2 Check if they are within 10 or less blocks of player in team 1

what do you need help with?
there are many guides revolving around this topic, like this one:

Detecting player direction

so this is really simple 4 direction detection but if you want the angle the player is heading in too then that’ll be a different story i’ll include later moving on guide and before you ask “what is the use of this guide?” it is mainly for pseudo items with collision or atleast a piece of what’s needed to be able to make the physics of it (so it can tell which direction to go in once the player tries to push it or something) as for the angles for more accurate collision i’ll figure it out la…

whoops sorry…i was a bit tired while i was reading the whole thing, my bad

@SleepDeprived775

This.

anyways, i think you can find guides that have the same topic, though since im not a coder, im not too sure if the guides will be helpful to find what you’re looking for

if you need to find x and y then you can use player coords

you’ll want to use these settings right down here

and then you’ll be able to get player coords

and then for the transmit channel using blocks part idk either I’m actually trying to figure that out myself

[Colton]

Im trying to figure out if a player on one team is 10 blocks or less from another player on another team…

[cheezesRcool]

do you need help with getting the coords of two players?
i do have an idea for that
you could try this out

actually swap the numbers this is assuming that if your making a dbd type of game then that team 1 are survivors and team 2 are hunters (assuming that there can only be 1 hunter)

[SleepDeprived775]

This might be memory intensive and I’m not sure if it works but couldn’t you add a tag zone that doesn’t respawn when tagged and sends a message on a channel?

[cheezesRcool]

i’ve never used tag zones before i’ll check that out
actually yeah that works

something like this?
when player is tagged it activates a trigger that sends a notification to the tagged player

How to Track Every Player and Find Their Distance Version 2.0 [ 7/10]

January 23, 2025. Josh deleted all files on the forums. Many amazing guides became unusable because of this. One of these guides was my own. It had months of dedication put into it, and I was heartbroken when I learned that others couldn’t use it anymore. But many people loved my guide, and I still get notifications for it fairly often. I’ve finally decided to fix it. It is now way simpler to build, and uses a lot less memory! With that, I give you, How to Track Every Player and Find Their Dist…

If someone sounds like they want distance, give them something related to distance

….
Tag zones… they have 3 tiles distance max

bro what is that
like I was expecting a distance formula in there at some point but sheesh that’s a lot of text operations :agony:
there is a much more simple way to do this

materials: coord device, 4 props, and a trigger loop (may have forgotten a couple more devices but it’s in my shatterglass map)

annddddd I have to go. fudge taters

Im not looking to see where the player are im looking to see if if the hunter on team 2 is 10 or less on x or y from player on team 1
