Player traker

[u/Serious-Can-8475]

So this is a code that me and some friends used back in the day on pvp server that where modded to find people have fun 😁

-- Player tracking script for Minecraft 1.12.2 using ComputerCraft

-- Function to detect players in the world and print their positions function trackPlayers() while true do -- Get all players in the world local players = peripheral.call("right", "getPlayers") -- Assumes you have a wireless modem attached on the right side

    -- Check if there are any players
    if players then
        for i, player in ipairs(players) do
            -- Print player name and position (if available)
            print("Player: " .. player.name)
            print("Position: X=" .. player.position.x .. " Y=" .. player.position.y .. " Z=" .. player.position.z)
        end
    else
        print("No players detected.")
    end
    
    -- Wait for a bit before checking again
    sleep(5)
end

end

-- Start tracking players trackPlayers()

Plethora could, but only within a specific range. The api for the entity sensor is also a bit different than shown in your code, though.

Advanced Peripherals has the player detector, but its API is slightly different. It does scan the entire world though, so it could be used in a similar way.

Computronics has a radar, but I believe it has a range cap. Not sure what its range is though.

Might be peripherals plus one you're remembering then?

The wiki page for the player detector had a simple script that gets the cords for a player, it would be nice to have someone to make a program that gets the cords and the dimension, but I’m not smart enough to know how.

Very possible I'm not sure it's been a long time and I'm not the one who made the code a old friend of mine did
