Section titled “combinations Function ”Get the number of possible sets from 1 to 'options' with each set having a size equal to 'selected' For example, a combination with 3 options and a set size of 1, returns 3: (1), (2), (3) A combination of 3 options with a set size of 2 returns 3: (1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 3) Note that the bigger the 'options' and lower the 'selected' may result in approximations or even infinity values. Combinations differ from permutations in that combinations focus on unique sets, ignoring the order of elements, whereas permutations account for the arrangement of elements within the set. Example: (1, 2) and (2, 1) represent a single combination since order doesn't matter in combinations, but they are two distinct permutations because permutations consider the order.

Section titled “Create Region Effect skript-worldguard”An effect to create a WorldGuard region. A temporary region is a region that will not be saved, meaning it is lost when the server restarts. A global region is a region that has no boundaries, meaning it covers the entire world. A cuboid region is the traditional WorldGuard region. It has two points to determine the boundaries. A polygonal region comprises many points. These points are used to draw a two-dimensional shape. Then, with the provided heights, the shape is extended vertically to form the region. At least three points must be provided to create a polygonal region. Note that if you do not specify the world for a region, you must be sure that the locations provided all have the same world. Note that Region IDs are only valid if they contain letters, numbers, underscores, commas, single quotation marks, dashes, pluses, and forward slashes. Note that if you attempt to create a region in a world where a region with the same ID already exists, that region will be replaced. Note that if you do not specify the minimum and maximum heights for a polygonal region, those values will be calculated from the points.

Section titled “Default Value Expression ”A shorthand expression for giving things a default value. If the first thing isn't set, the second thing will be returned.
broadcast {score::%player's uuid%} otherwise "%player% has no score!"Delay Section
Section titled “Delay Section ”Delays the script's execution by a given timespan.
When used as an effect, all code after the wait runs once the delay elapses. The whole trigger pauses until the wait finishes.
When used as a section, only the code within the section is deferred. Code after the section continues immediately, and the body runs on the same event once the delay elapses. This is useful for scheduling follow-up work without blocking the rest of the trigger.
Note that delays are not persistent. For example, ban player → wait 7 days → unban player will not resume if the server restarts during the delay.
Inside a section body, outer loop-values are not available because the body is parsed as a separate trigger. Event values (like player) still work. If you need a value from before the delay, copy it to a local variable. Local variables are snapshotted when the section is scheduled, so subsequent changes aren't reflected.

Section titled “Loop Section ”Loop sections repeat their code with multiple values.
A loop will loop through all elements of the given expression, e.g. all players, worlds, items, etc. The conditions & effects inside the loop will be executed for every of those elements, which can be accessed with ‘loop-send "hello" to loop-player. When a condition inside a loop is not fulfilled the loop will start over with the next element of the loop. You can however use stop loop to exit the loop completely and resume code execution after the end of the loop.
Loopable Values
All expressions that represent more than one value, e.g. ‘all players’, ‘worlds’, etc., as well as list variables, can be looped. You can also use a list of expressions, e.g. loop the victim and the attacker, to execute the same code for only a few values.
List Variables
When looping list variables, you can also use loop-index in addition to loop-value inside the loop. loop-value is the value of the currently looped variable, and loop-index is the last part of the variable's name (the part where the list variable has its asterisk *).

Section titled “Parse Expression ”Parses text as a given type, or as a given pattern.
This expression can be used in two different ways: One which parses the entire text as a single instance of a type, e.g. as a number, and one that parses the text according to a pattern.
If the given text could not be parsed, this expression will return nothing and the parse error will be set if some information is available.
Some notes about parsing with a pattern:
- The pattern must be a Skript pattern, e.g. percent signs are used to define where to parse which types, e.g. put a %number% or %items% in the pattern if you expect a number or some items there.
- You have to save the expression's value in a list variable, e.g. set {parsed::*} to message parsed as "...".
- The list variable will contain the parsed values from all %types% in the pattern in order. If a type was plural, e.g. %items%, the variable's value at the respective index will be a list variable, e.g. the values will be stored in {parsed::1::*}, not {parsed::1}.
set {var} to line 1 parsed as numberon chat: set {var::*} to message parsed as "buying %items% for %money%" if parse error is set: message "%parse error%" else if {var::*} is set: cancel event remove {var::2} from the player's balance give {var::1::*} to the playerParse Error Expression

Section titled “Particle Count Expression ”Sets how many particles to draw. Particle count has an influence on how the 'offset' and 'extra' values of a particle apply. Offsets are treated as distributions if particle count is greater than 0. Offsets are treated as velocity or some other special behavior if particle count is 0. This means that setting the particle count may change how your particle behaves. Be careful! More detailed information on particle behavior can be found at Paper's particle documentation.
draw 7 blue dust particles at playerParticle Distribution Expression
Section titled “Particle Distribution Expression ”Determines the normal distribution that particles may be drawn within. The distribution is defined by a vector of x, y, and z standard deviations. Particles will be randomly drawn based on these values, clustering towards the center. 68% of particles will be within 1 standard deviation, 95% within 2, and 99.7% within three. The area the particles will spawn in can be roughly estimated as being within 2 times the standard deviation in each axis. For example, a distribution of 1, 2, and 1 would spawn particles within roughly 2 blocks on the x and z axes, and within 4 blocks on the y axis. Please note that distributions only take effect if the particle count is greater than 0! Particles with counts of 0 do not have distributions. If the particle count is 0, the offset is treated differently depending on the particle. More detailed information on particle behavior can be found at Paper's particle documentation.
set the particle distribution of {_my-particle} to vector(1, 2, 1)Particle Offset Expression
Section titled “Particle Offset Expression ”Determines the offset value for a particle. Offsets are treated as distributions if particle count is greater than 0. Offsets are treated as velocity or some other special behavior if particle count is 0. Setting distribution/velocity with this method may change the particle count to 1/0 respectively. More detailed information on particle behavior can be found at Paper's particle documentation.
set the particle offset of {_my-particle} to vector(1, 2, 1)Particle Speed/Extra Value Expression
Section titled “Particle Speed/Extra Value Expression ”Determines the specific 'speed' or 'extra' value of a particle. This value is used in different ways depending on the particle, but in general it: * acts as the speed at which the particle moves if the particle count is greater than 0. * acts as a multiplier to the particle's offset if the particle count is 0. More detailed information on particle behavior can be found at Paper's particle documentation.
set the extra value of {_my-flame-particle} to 2set the particle speed of {_my-flame-particle} to 0Particle with Offset/Distribution/Velocity Expression
Section titled “Particle with Offset/Distribution/Velocity Expression ”Applies a specific offset to a particle. Offsets are treated as distributions if particle count is greater than 0. Offsets are treated as velocity or some other special behavior if particle count is 0. Setting distribution/velocity with this method may change the particle count to 1/0 respectively. More detailed information on particle behavior can be found at Paper's particle documentation.

Section titled “Particle with Speed/Extra Value Expression ”Applies a specific 'speed' or 'extra' value to a particle. This value is used in different ways depending on the particle, but in general it: * acts as the speed at which the particle moves if the particle count is greater than 0. * acts as a multiplier to the particle's offset if the particle count is 0. More detailed information on particle behavior can be found at Paper's particle documentation.

Section titled “Particles with Data Expression ”Creates particles that require some extra information, such as colors, locations, or block data. Particles not present here do not require data and can be found in the Particle type. Data requirements vary from version to version, so these docs are only accurate for the most recent Minecraft version at time of release. For example, between 1.21.8 and 1.21.9, the 'flash' particle became colourable and now requires a colour data.

Section titled “permutations Function ”Get the number of possible ordered arrangements from 1 to 'options' with each arrangement having a size equal to 'selected' For example, permutations with 3 options and an arrangement size of 1, returns 3: (1), (2), (3) Permutations with 3 options and an arrangement size of 2 returns 6: (1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 1), (2, 3), (3, 1), (3, 2) Note that the bigger the 'options' and lower the 'selected' may result in approximations or even infinity values. Permutations differ from combinations in that permutations account for the arrangement of elements within the set, whereas combinations focus on unique sets and ignore the order of elements. Example: (1, 2) and (2, 1) are two distinct permutations because the positions of '1' and '2' are different, but they represent a single combination since order doesn't matter in combinations.
permutations(10, 2) = 90permutations(10, 4) = 5040permutations(size of {some list::*}, 2)Persistent Effect
Section titled “Persistent Effect ”Make entities, players, or leaves be persistent. Persistence of entities is whether they are retained through server restarts. Persistence of leaves is whether they should decay when not connected to a log block within 6 meters. Persistence of players is if the player's playerdata should be saved when they leave the server. Players' persistence is reset back to 'true' when they join the server. Passengers inherit the persistence of their vehicle, meaning a persistent zombie put on a non-persistent chicken will become non-persistent. This does not apply to players. By default, all entities are persistent.

Section titled “Persistent Data Value Expression ”Provides access to the 'persistent data container' Bukkit provides on many objects. These values are stored on the chunk/world/item/entity directly, like custom NBT, but are much faster and reliable to access. Persistent values natively support numbers and text, but any Skript type that can be saved in a variable can also be stored in PDC via this expression. Lists of objects can also be saved. If you attempt to save invalid types, runtime errors will be thrown. The names of tags must be valid namespaced keys, i.e. a-z, 0-9, '_', '.', '/', and '-' are the allowed characters. If no namespace is provided, it will default to 'minecraft'.

Section titled “Ping Expression ”Pings of players, as Minecraft server knows them. Note that they will almost certainly be different from the ones you'd get from using ICMP echo requests. This expression is only supported on some server software (PaperSpigot).
command /ping <player=%player%>: trigger: send "%arg-1%'s ping is %arg-1's ping%"Plain Item Expression
Section titled “Plain Item Expression ”A plain item is an item with no modifications. It can be used to convert items to their default state or to match with other default items.

Section titled “Play Dead Effect ”Make an axolotl start or stop playing dead.
make last spawned axolotl play deadPlay or Draw an Effect Effect
Section titled “Play or Draw an Effect Effect ”Plays or draws a specific effect at a location, to a player, or on an entity. Effects can be: * Particles. * Game effects, which consist of combinations of particles and sounds, like the bone meal particles, the sound of footsteps on a specific block, or the particles and sound of breaking a splash potion. * Entity effects, which are particles or animations that are entity-specific and can only be played on a compatible entity. For example, the ravager attack animation can be played with this effect. All effects vary significantly in availability from version to version, and some may simply not function on your version of Minecraft. Some effects, like the death animation entity effect, may cause client glitches and should be used carefully!

Section titled “Play Sound Effect ”Plays a sound at given location for everyone or just for given players, or plays a sound to specified players. Both Minecraft sound names and Spigot sound names are supported. Playing resource pack sounds are supported too. The sound category is 'master' by default. When running 1.19+, playing a sound from an entity directly will result in the sound coming from said entity, even while moving. If the sound is custom, a location emitter will follow the entity. Do note that pitch and volume are reflected based on the entity, and Minecraft may not use the values from this syntax. Minecraft sometimes has a set of sounds under one sound ID that will randomly play. To counter this, you can directly state which seed to use. Please note that sound names can get changed in any Minecraft or Spigot version, or even removed from Minecraft itself.

Section titled “player Function ”Returns an online player from their name or UUID, if player is offline function will return nothing. Setting 'getExactPlayer' parameter to true will return the player whose name is exactly equal to the provided name instead of returning a player that their name starts with the provided name.

Section titled “Player Type ”A player. Depending on whether a player is online or offline several actions can be performed with them, though you won't get any errors when using effects that only work if the player is online (e.g. changing their inventory) on an offline player.
You have two possibilities to use players as command arguments:
The player's display name, as text. Can be set or reset.
A player's account/true name, as text. Cannot be changed.
Parsing an offline player as a player (online) will return nothing (none), for that case you would need to parse as offlineplayer which only returns nothing (none) if player doesn't exist in Minecraft databases (name not taken) otherwise it will return the player regardless of their online status.set {_p} to "Notch" parsed as a player # returns <none> unless Notch is actually online or starts with Notch like Notchanset {_p} to "N" parsed as a player # returns Notch if Notch is online because their name starts with 'N' (case insensitive) however, it would return nothing if no player whose name starts with 'N' is online.Player Chat Completions Expression
Section titled “Player Chat Completions Expression ”The custom chat completion suggestions. You can add, set, remove, and clear them. Removing the names of online players with this expression is ineffective. This expression will not return anything due to Bukkit limitations.

Section titled “Protocol Version Expression ”The protocol version that will be sent as the protocol version of the server in a server list ping event. For more information and list of protocol versions visit wiki.vg. If this protocol version doesn't match with the protocol version of the client, the client will see the version string. But please note that, this expression has no visual effect over the version string. For example if the server uses PaperSpigot 1.12.2, and you make the protocol version 107 (1.9), the version string will not be "Paper 1.9", it will still be "Paper 1.12.2". But then you can customize the version string as you wish. Also if the protocol version of the player is higher than protocol version of the server, it will say "Server out of date!", and if vice-versa "Client out of date!" when you hover on the ping bars. This can be set in a server list ping event only (increase and decrease effects cannot be used because that wouldn't make sense).

set {queue} to a new queueadd "hello" to {queue}broadcast the 1st element of {queue}Queue (Experimental) Expression
Section titled “Queue (Experimental) Expression ”Requires the using queues experimental feature flag to be enabled.
Creates a new queue.
A queue is a set of elements that can have things removed from the start and added to the end.
Any value can be added to a queue. Adding a non-existent value (e.g. `{variable that isn't set}`) will have no effect.
This means that removing an element from the queue will always return a value unless the queue is empty.
Requesting an element from a queue (e.g. `the 1st element of {queue}`) also removes it from the queue.
set {queue} to a new queueadd "hello" and "there" to {queue}broadcast the first element of {queue} # hellobroadcast the first element of {queue} # there# queue is now emptyset {queue} to a new queue of "hello" and "there"broadcast the last element of {queue} # removes 'there'add "world" to {queue}broadcast the first 2 elements of {queue} # removes 'hello', 'world'Queue Start/End (Experimental) Expression
Section titled “Queue Start/End (Experimental) Expression ”Requires the using queues experimental feature flag to be enabled.

Section titled “Register Tag Effect ”Registers a new tag containing either items or entity datas. Note that items will NOT keep any information other than their type, so adding `diamond sword named "test"` to a tag is the same as adding `diamond sword` Item tags should be used for contexts where the item is not placed down, while block tags should be used for contexts where the item is placed. For example, and item tag could be "skript:edible", while a block tag would be "skript:needs_water_above". All custom tags will be given the namespace "skript", followed by the name you give it. The name must only include the characters A to Z, 0 to 9, and '/', '.', '_', and '-'. Otherwise, the tag will not register. Please note that two tags can share a name if they are of different types. Registering a new tag of the same name and type will overwrite the existing tag. Tags will reset on server shutdown.

root(2, 4) = 2 # same as sqrt(4)root(4, 16) = 2root(-4, 16) = 0.5 # same as 16^(-1/4)Rotate Effect
Section titled “Rotate Effect ”Rotates displays, quaternions, or vectors around an axis a set amount of degrees, or around all 3 axes at once. Vectors can only be rotated around the global X/Y/Z axes, or an arbitrary vector axis. Quaternions are more flexible, allowing rotation around the global or local X/Y/Z axes, arbitrary vectors, or all 3 local axes at once. Global axes are the ones in the Minecraft world. Local axes are relative to how the quaternion is already oriented. Rotating a display is a shortcut for rotating its left rotation. If the right rotation needs to be modified, it should be acquired, rotated, and re-set. Note that rotating a quaternion/display around a vector results in a rotation around the local vector, so results may not be what you expect. For example, rotating quaternions/displays around vector(1, 0, 0) is the same as rotating around the local X axis. The same applies to rotations by all three axes at once. In addition, rotating around all three axes of a quaternion/display at once will rotate in ZYX order, meaning the Z rotation will be applied first and the X rotation last.

Section titled “Scalable Particle Effect Type ”A particle effect which can be scaled up or down.
The scale multiplier to use for a particle. Generally larger numbers will result in larger particles.
Scale Expression
Section titled “Scale Expression ”Represents the physical size/scale of something. For example, the scale of a display entity would be a vector containing multipliers on its size in the x, y, and z axis. For a particle effect like the sweeping edge particle, scale is a number determining how large the particle should be.
set the scale of {_display} to vector(0,2,0)set the scale of {_particle} to 1.5Scale Property
Section titled “Scale Property ”The scale of something, say the x/y/z scales of a display entity.
Scoreboard Tags Expression
Section titled “Scoreboard Tags Expression ”Scoreboard tags are simple list of texts stored directly in the data of an entity. So this is a Minecraft related thing, not Bukkit, so the tags will not get removed when the server stops. You can visit visit Minecraft Wiki for more info. This is changeable and valid for any type of entity. Also you can use use the Has Scoreboard Tag condition to check whether an entity has the given tags. Requires Minecraft 1.11+ (actually added in 1.9 to the game, but added in 1.11 to Spigot).
on spawn of a monster: if the spawn reason is mob spawner: add "spawned by a spawner" to the scoreboard tags of event-entity
on death of a monster: if the attacker is a player: if the victim doesn't have the scoreboard tag "spawned by a spawner": add 1$ to attacker's balanceScript Expression
Section titled “Script Expression ”The current script, or a script from its (file) name. If the script is enabled or disabled (or reloaded) this reference will become invalid. Therefore, it is recommended to obtain a script reference when needed.

Section titled “Send Resource Pack Effect ”Request that the player's client download and switch resource packs. The client will download the resource pack in the background, and will automatically switch to it once the download is complete. The URL must be a direct download link. The hash is used for caching, the player won't have to re-download the resource pack that way. The hash must be SHA-1, you can get SHA-1 hash of your resource pack using this online tool. The resource pack request action can be used to check status of the sent resource pack request.
on join: send the resource pack from "URL" with hash "hash" to the playerSent Command List Expression
Section titled “Sent Command List Expression ”The commands that will be sent to the player in a send commands to player event. Modifications will affect what commands show up for the player to tab complete. They will not affect what commands the player can actually run.

The texture input is a base64 string containing the texture data to use (https://minecraft-heads.com is one site that provides easy access to base64 texture strings). Resetting the texture of a skull will make it look like a Steve/Alex head.
set the skull texture of {_i} to "eyJ0ZXh0dXJlcyI6eyJTS0lOIjp7InVybCI6Imh0dHA6Ly90ZXh0dXJlcy5taW5lY3JhZnQubmV0L3RleHR1cmUvNTM4NmRmZDc0Y2JhZmJkMWRiZTQ3OWY1ZTAzNzRjMDliZjJlYjRlMzg2NjExZmM0ZmM2OTlmMDJlY2E0ZGQyYyJ9fX0="Slot Type
Section titled “Slot Type ”Represents a single slot of an inventory. Notable slots are the armour slots and furnace slots. The most important property that distinguishes a slot from an item is its ability to be changed, e.g. it can be set, deleted, enchanted, etc. (Some item expressions can be changed as well, e.g. items stored in variables. For that matter: slots are never saved to variables, only the items they represent at the time when the variable is set). Please note that tool can be regarded a slot, but it can actually change it's position, i.e. doesn't represent always the same slot.
The amount of items in the slot's stack. Can be set.
The custom name of the item in the slot, if it has one. Can be set or reset.
Whether this slot does not contain a (non-air) item.
The custom name of the item in the slot, if it has one. Can be set or reset.

Section titled “Slot Index Expression ”Index of an an inventory slot. Other types of slots may or may not have indices. Note that comparing slots with numbers is also possible; if index of slot is same as the number, comparisonsucceeds. This expression is mainly for the cases where you must for some reason save the slot numbers. Raw index of slot is unique for the view, see Minecraft Wiki
if index of event-slot is 10: send "You bought a pie!"if display name of player's top inventory is "Custom Menu": # 3 rows inventory if raw index of event-slot > 27: # outside custom inventory cancel eventSort Effect
Section titled “Sort Effect ”Sorts a list variable using either the natural ordering of the contents or the results of the given expression.
Be warned, this will overwrite the indices of the list variable.
When using the full sort %~objects% (by|based on) <expression> pattern,
the input expression can be used to refer to the current item being sorted.
(See input expression for more information.)
set {_words::*} to "pineapple", "banana", "yoghurt", and "apple"sort {_words::*} # alphabetical sortsort {_words::*} by length of input # shortest to longestsort {_words::*} in descending order by length of input # longest to shortestsort {_words::*} based on {tastiness::%input%} # sort based on custom valueSorted List Expression
Section titled “Sorted List Expression ”Sorts given list in natural order. All objects in list must be comparable; if they're not, this expression will return nothing.

Section titled “Spawn Section ”Spawns entities. This can be used as an effect and as a section. If it is used as a section, the section is run before the entity is added to the world. You can modify the entity in this section, using for example 'event-entity' or 'cow'. Do note that other event values, such as 'player', won't work in this section. If you're spawning a display and want it to be empty on initialization, like not having a block display be stone, set hidden config node 'spawn empty displays' to true. Note that when spawning an entity via entity snapshots, the code within the section will not run instantaneously as compared to spawning normally (via 'a zombie').

Section titled “Speed Expression ”A player's walking or flying speed. Both can be changed, but values must be between -1 and 1 (excessive values will be changed to -1 or 1 respectively). Negative values reverse directions. Please note that changing a player's speed will change their FOV just like potions do.
set the player's walk speed to 1increase the argument's fly speed by 0.1Speed Property
Section titled “Speed Property ”The speed at which something is moving.
Sprinting Effect
Section titled “Sprinting Effect ”Make a player start or stop sprinting. If the player is not moving when this effect is used, they will be put in sprint mode for a tick and then stopped (this causes the FOV to change). Using it a second time, without the player manually sprinting in between, causes the player to stay in sprint mode, with some quirks. - Particles may not be produced under the player's feet. - The player will not exit the sprinting state if they stop moving. - Restrictions like low hunger will not prevent the player from sprinting - The player pressing shift will stop them sprinting, and pressing sprint will re-assert normal sprinting behavior Using this effect two or more consecutive times on a stationary player produces undefined behavior and should not be relied on.
make player start sprintingforce player to start sprintingsqrt Function
Section titled “sqrt Function ”The square root, which is the inverse operation to squaring a number (for positive numbers only). This is the same as (argument) ^ (1/2) – other roots can be calculated via number ^ (1/root), e.g. set {_l} to {_volume}^(1/3).
Returns NaN (not a number) if the argument is negative.
sqrt(4) = 2sqrt(2) = 1.4142sqrt(-1) = NaNStarts/Ends With Condition
Section titled “Starts/Ends With Condition ”Checks if a text starts or ends with another.

Section titled “Stop Sound Effect ”Stops specific or all sounds from playing to a group of players. Both Minecraft sound names and Spigot sound names are supported. Resource pack sounds are supported too. The sound category is 'master' by default. A sound can't be stopped from a different category. Please note that sound names can get changed in any Minecraft or Spigot version, or even removed from Minecraft itself.

Section titled “Stored Enchantments Expression ”The enchantments stored inside an enchanted book. This is different from enchanting the book, as for example a book
of sharpness does not deal more damage when used as a weapon. Corresponds to the minecraft:stored_enchantments data component.
Note that for example resetting the stored enchantments of an enchanted book of Sharpness III removes the sharpness enchantment, since
it is impossible to know what the original enchantments of the item were. Note also that only one entry can exist per enchantment type;
adding Sharpness III to a book with Sharpness V will convert it to a book of Sharpness III.

Section titled “Substring Expression ”Extracts part of a text. You can either get the first <x> characters, the last <x> characters, the character at index <x>, or the characters between indices <x> and <y>. The indices <x> and <y> should be between 1 and the length of the text (other values will be fit into this range).

Section titled “Suppress Type Hints (Experimental) Effect ”An effect to suppress local variable type hint errors for the syntax lines that follow this effect. NOTE: Suppressing type hints also prevents syntax from providing new type hints. For example, with type hints suppressed, 'set {_x} to true' would not provide 'boolean' as a type hint for '{_x}'

Section titled “Tablisted Players Expression ”The players shown in the tab lists of the specified players. `delete` will remove all the online players from the tab list. `reset` will reset the tab list to the default state, which makes all players visible again.
tablist players of playerTag Expression
Section titled “Tag Expression ”Represents a tag which can be used to classify items, blocks, or entities. Tags are composed of a value and an optional namespace: "minecraft:oak_logs". If you omit the namespace, one will be provided for you, depending on what kind of tag you're using. For example, `tag "doors"` will be the tag "minecraft:doors", while `paper tag "doors"` will be "paper:doors". `minecraft tag` will search through the vanilla tags, `datapack tag` will search for datapack-provided tags (a namespace is required here!), `paper tag` will search for Paper's custom tags if you are running Paper, and `custom tag` will look in the "skript" namespace for custom tags you've registered. You can also filter by tag types using "item", "block", or "entity".

Section titled “Tags Contents Expression ”Returns all the values that a tag contains. For item and block tags, this will return items. For entity tags, it will return entity datas (a creeper, a zombie).
broadcast tag values of minecraft tag "dirt"broadcast (first element of player's tool's block tags)'s tag contentsTags of X Expression
Section titled “Tags of X Expression ”Returns all the tags of an item, block, or entity. `minecraft tag` will return only the vanilla tags, `datapack tag` will return only datapack-provided tags, `paper tag` will return only Paper's custom tags (if you are running Paper), and `custom tag` will look in the "skript" namespace for custom tags you've registered. You can also filter by tag types using "item", "block", or "entity".

Section titled “tan Function ”The tangent function. This is basically sin(arg)/cos(arg). Uses degrees, not radians.
tan(0) = 0tan(45) = 1tan(89.99) = 5729.5779Target Expression
Section titled “Target Expression ”For players this is the entity at the crosshair. For mobs and experience orbs this is the entity they are attacking/following (if any). The 'ray size' and 'ignoring blocks' options are only valid for players' targets. The 'ray size' option effectively increases the area around the crosshair an entity can be in. It does so by expanding the hitboxes of entities by the given amount. Display entities have a hit box of 0, so using the 'ray size' option can be helpful when targeting them. May grab entities in unloaded chunks.

Section titled “Teleport Effect ”Teleport an entity to a specific location. This effect is delayed by default, as it waits for the chunk of the location to be loaded before teleporting. The keyword 'force' may be used to bypass this behavior (preventing the delay), but note that it may cause lag spikes or other server performance issues when teleporting to unloaded chunks. Teleport flags are properties to retain during a teleport, such as direction, passengers, and velocities.

Section titled “Text Type ”Text is simply text, i.e. a sequence of characters, which can optionally contain expressions which will be replaced with a meaningful representation (e.g. %player% will be replaced with the player's name). Because scripts are also text, you have to put text into double quotes to tell Skript which part of the line is an effect/expression and which part is the text. Please read the article on Texts and Variable Names to learn more.

Section titled “Text Display Alignment Expression ”Returns or changes the alignment setting of text displays.
set text alignment of the last spawned text display to left alignedText Display Drop Shadow Effect
Section titled “Text Display Drop Shadow Effect ”Applies or removes drop shadow from the displayed text on a text display.
apply drop shadow to last spawned text displayif {_display} has drop shadow: remove drop shadow from the text of {_display}Text Display Has Drop Shadow Condition
Section titled “Text Display Has Drop Shadow Condition ”Returns whether the text of a display has drop shadow applied.
if {_display} has drop shadow: remove drop shadow from the text of {_display}Text Display Line Width Expression
Section titled “Text Display Line Width Expression ”Returns or changes the line width of text displays. Default is 200.
set the line width of the last spawned text display to 300Text Display Opacity Expression
Section titled “Text Display Opacity Expression ”Returns or changes the text opacity of text displays. The default is 255, fully opaque. Values are between 0 and 255. 0 to 3 are treated the same as 255, meaning fully opaque. Values from 4 to 26 are fully transparent, and opacity increases linearly from there up to 255. For backwards compatability, setting negative values between -1 and -128 wrap around, so -1 is the same as 255 and -128 is the same as 128. Adding or subtracting values will adjust the opacity within the bounds of 0-255, so subtracting 300 wil always result in an opacity of 0.

Section titled “Time Expression ”The time of a world. Use the "minecraft timespan" syntax to change the time according to Minecraft's time intervals. Since Minecraft uses discrete intervals for time (ticks), changing the time by real-world minutes or real-world seconds only changes it approximately. Removing an amount of time from a world's time will move the clock forward a day.

Evaluates the given expression for each element in the list, replacing the original element with the expression's result. If the given expression returns a single value, the indices of the list will not change. If the expression returns multiple values, then then indices will be reset as a single index cannot contain multiple values. Only variable lists can be transformed with this effect. For other lists, see the transform expression.

Section titled “Type Hints Experiment ”Local variable type hints enable Skript to understand what kind of values your local variables will hold at parse time. Consider the following code: ``` set {_a} to 5 set {_b} to "some string" ... do stuff ... set {_c} to {_a} in lowercase # oops i used the wrong variable ``` Previously, the code above would parse without issue. However, Skript now understands that when it is used, {_a} could only be a number (and not a text). Thus, the code above would now error with a message about mismatched types. Please note that this feature is currently only supported by simple local variables. A simple local variable is one whose name does not contain any expressions: ``` {_var} # can use type hints {_var::%player's name%} # can't use type hints ```
[local variable] type hintsType of Expression
Section titled “Type of Expression ”Type of a block, item, entity, inventory, potion effect or enchantment type. Types of items, blocks and block datas are item types similar to them but have amounts of one, no display names and, on Minecraft 1.13 and newer versions, are undamaged. Types of entities and inventories are entity types and inventory types known to Skript. Types of potion effects are potion effect types. Types of enchantment types are enchantments.
