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}.

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 Also if the protocol version of the player is higher than protocol version of the server, it will say "Server out of date!", and if vice-versa "Client out of date!"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).

Gets a random item out of a set, e.g. a random player out of all players online.

Special number values, namely NaN, Infinity and -Infinity

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.

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).

Returns the 3 most recent TPS readings, like the /tps command. This expression is only supported on some server software (PaperSpigot).

The tamer of an entity. Can only be used in entity tame events. You can use 'event-entity' to refer tamed entity itself.

For players this is the entity at the crosshair, while for mobs and experience orbs it represents the entity they are attacking/following (if any).

The block at the crosshair. This regards all blocks that are not air as fully solid, e.g. torches will be like a solid stone block for this expression.

The teleport cause within a player teleport event.

Temperature at given block.

A shorthand expression for returning something based on a condition.

The time of a world.

The amount of time a player has played for on the server. This info is stored in the player's statistics in the main world's data folder. Changing this will also change the player's stats which can be views in the client's statistics menu.

The time that has passed since a date. If the given date is in the future, a value will not be returned.

The item an entity is holding in their main or off hand.

Type of a block, item, entity, inventory or potion effect. Types of items and blocks 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.

The UUID of a player, entity or world. In the future there will be an option to use a player's UUID instead of the name in variable names (i.e. when %player% is used), but for now this can be used. Please note that this expression does not work for offline players if you are under 1.8!

Creates unbreakable copies of given items.

Converts given Unix timestamp to a date. The Unix timespan represents the number of seconds elapsed since 1 January 1970.

Converts given date to Unix timestamp. This is roughly how many seconds have elapsed since 1 January 1970.

Gets the angle between two vectors.

Arithmetic expressions for vectors.

Creates a vector from x, y and z values.

Gets the cross product between two vectors.

Forms a 'cylindrical shaped' vector using yaw to manipulate the current point.

Gets the dot product between two vectors.

Gets or sets the length of a vector.

Returns the location offset by vectors.

Returns the same vector but with length 1.

Creates a random vector.

Forms a 'spherical shaped' vector using yaw and pitch to manipulate the current point.

Gets the squared length of a vector.

Creates a vector between two locations.

Creates a vector from a location.

Creates a vector from a yaw and pitch value.

Gets or changes velocity of an entity.

Gets or changes the x, y or z component of a vector.

The vehicle an entity is in, if any. This can actually be any entity, e.g. spider jockeys are skeletons that ride on a spider, so the spider is the 'vehicle' of the skeleton. See also: passenger

The version of Bukkit, Minecraft or Skript respectively.

The text to show if the protocol version of the server doesn't match with protocol version of the client. You can check the protocol version expression for more information about this. This can only be set in a server list ping event.

The view distance of the client. Can not be changed. This differs from the server side view distance of player as this will retrieve the view distance the player has set on their client.

The weather in the given or the current world.

A server's whitelist.This expression can be used to add/remove players to/from the whitelist, to enable it and disable it (set whitelist to true / set whitelist to false), and to empty it (reset whitelist)

The world the event occurred in.

The seed of given world. Note that it will be returned as Minecraft internally treats seeds, not as you specified it in world configuration.

Returns the world from a string.

All worlds of the server, useful for looping.

An expression to be able to use a certain amount of items where the amount can be any expression. Please note that this expression is not stable and might be replaced in the future.

The yaw or pitch of a location or vector.
