Solved ShrinkBorder ?

Hi guys, How to Make ShrinkBorder with a Task ?
a border that forms a square is decreasing slowly

Help ? :c

What do you mean shrink border? Sorry, i don't understand it

unclear what you're asking
Please clarify your specific problem or add additional details to highlight exactly what you need. As it's currently written, it’s hard to tell exactly what you're asking.

a border that forms a square is decreasing slowly

we have no way to display a boarder in MCPE. Do you want a fictional border? where players can't through? Because displaying a border like in MCPC 1.9+ (wait since when was it implemented) isn't possible in MCPE (yet)

Is that what you want?

Not with particle

Just a shrinkborder not with Particle

And what exactly is your "border"? What does this border do?

Like on hypixel UHC?

It Pushes in to the world. Well im pretty sure

It narrows as time passes. It is a square world and the boarders move in and close the players in. Think of it as a bit like this.

Like the walls in that trash room (Sorry for the bit at the start, just skip to 00:39)

Has no one ever heard of Hypixel UHC

Right, like this

We are plugin developers, not those stupid server review YouTubers who nothing other than public relations.

Fair point. I dont watch that kind of stuff it is just that I looked it up for an example.

To make a border:

PHP:

$borderX = 100;
$borderZ = 100;
$borderY = 50;
$minBorderX = 0;
$minBorderZ = 0;
for($y = 0; $y <= $borderY; $y++){

for($x = 0; $x <= $borderX; $x++){
$level->setBlock(new Vector3($x, $y, $minBorderZ), Block::get(95));

$level->setBlock(new Vector3($x, $y, $borderZ), Block::get(95));
}

for($z = 0; $z <= $borderX; $z++){
$level->setBlock(new Vector3($minBorderX, $y, $z), Block::get(95));

$level->setBlock(new Vector3($borderX, $y, $z), Block::get(95));
}


}


As you can see I use the block 95, it's invisible bedrock, which you can't destroy and can't see, but it still blocks you.

Now we want to shrink it, I am recommending to call a function.

PHP:


public function shrinkBorder($x, $y, $z, $minX, $minZ){
// spawn the new shrinkborder
$borderX = $x - $this->count;
$borderZ = $y;
$borderY = $z - $this->count;
$minBorderX = $minX + $this->count;
$minBorderZ = $minZ + $this->count;
for($y = 0; $y <= $borderY; $y++){

for($x = 0; $x <= $borderX; $x++){
$level->setBlock(new Vector3($x, $y, $minBorderZ), Block::get(95));

$level->setBlock(new Vector3($x, $y, $minBorderX), Block::get(95));
}

for($z = 0; $z <= $borderX; $z++){
$level->setBlock(new Vector3($minBorderX, $y, $z), Block::get(95));

$level->setBlock(new Vector3($borderX, $y, $z), Block::get(95));
}


}
}


// you can despawn the old border but I dont recommend you to do that, because it will only take unneccessary proccessing.



To call the function:

Make a public variable:
$this->count = 0;
Everytime the border shrinks, count $this->count up.

PHP:

$this->count++;
$this->shrinkBorder($x, $y, $z, $minX, $minZ);


$x, $y, $z, $minX, $minZ are free to choose. I hope I could help!

It's probably much more efficient to disallow player movement. It is very inefficient to send a large number of block changes in a short period to many players who would probably never run into the borders.
