I'm requesting

Level.selectBlock(blockId);

This will select all the certain blocks in the world.
Instead of doing this:

for(x = 0; x < 257; x++){
   for(y = 0; y < 129; y++){
      for(z = 0; z < 257; z++){
         if(getTile(x, y, z) == blockId) {
            //Your code here
         }
      }
   }
}

K? But what would that return? An array? What?

Uhm... like a multiple gettile.. idk :/

Idk. Maybe it should be

Level.replaceBlock(oldBlockId, oldBlockDamage, newBlockId, newBlockDamage);

Can I suggest:

Entity.getEntityAtPosition(float x, float y, float z); //Returns an Entity at the position
Entity.getMobSkin(); //Returns a string/url of the mob's skin

ModPE.overrideFile(String file, String url); //Or does override texture already work for this?
ModPE.importPackage(javapackage); //Imports a java package

//Anymore?

OverrideTexture works for this; isn't importPackage defined by Rhino? Or am I dumb?
Re. getEntityAtPosition: do you need a radius as well?

Can you tell me how ModPE.setItemCategory() works? And can you tell which tabs have the value of which numbers?

What do you mean you don't know?! Did Byteandahalf implement it?

It seems to not work. I saw this on their site. It just says importPackage not defined. A radius would be better so exact positions won't be needed too much. It should only get the entity closest to the center of the search area.

Seems that getAllEntities is not yet implemented. I used this to make breeding mod.

I think a deleteWorldHook() would be very good, with the parameters worldName, worldDir, anyOtherAdditionalParams, as instead of saving a file in the world directory so it can,t be deleted in-game and must be deleted manually with a file manager, you could just use ModPE.saveData() and delete it when a world is deleted. And also, ModPE.saveEntity(entity) would be pretty good too, allowing for custom mobs scripts.

What would be the point of deleting it in-game but still having to delete it in a file manager?

Ive noticed in the latest Blocklauncher pro, It doesnt load items-opaque.png and gives default items on all texture packs

Nevermind *Facepalm* I forgot there was a default items-opaque.png in the textures folder in BL's data folder

I was able to create a custom function for Entity.getEntityAtPositionpm me if you want it

setScriptState(true/false); //sets the current script active/disabled

setOtherScriptState("script_name", true/false); //sets another script active/disabled

This is actually already possible. If you want I can PM you the code.

Yes please. Ty.

Put it here

For anyone who needs Entity.getEntityAtPosition() immediately here is some code:

var ents = new Array();
function entityAddedHook(ent){
    ents.push(ent);
}
function entityRemovedHook(ent){
    if(ents.indexOf(ent) != -1)ents.splice(ents.indexOf(ent));
}
Entity.getEntityAtPosition = function(x, y, z, r){
    var ent = null;
    for(var i = 0; i < ents.length; i++){
	    var e = ents[i];
	    var ex = Math.floor(Entity.getX(e));
	    var ey = Math.floor(Entity.getY(e));
	    var ez = Math.floor(Entity.getZ(e));
	    var rx = Math.max(ex, x) - Math.min(ex, x);
	    var ry = Math.max(ey, y) - Math.min(ey, y);
	    var rz = Math.max(ez, z) - Math.min(ez, z);
	    if(rx == r || ry == r || rz == r){
		    ent = e;
		    break;
	    }
    }
    return ent;
}

Just copy that to your script and you should be able to use Entity.getEntityAtPosition. Use this until the next beta comes out with the function :PAlso if you want to save entities I had an idea. I was working on a library but I thought I'd share the concept first.

First, you need to create an array of entities. For each entity store their entity id, skin, rendertype, etc... If those are possible yet. Afterwards you can store the data in a file and you can then remove all entities when you leave the game or join the game, your choice. Then spawn all entities. So technically all you're doing is creating a file that replaced the job of the entities.dat file.

Controlling a script's enable status. This is an altered version of MrARM's script, put into a custom function. When calling the function, make sure that the first parameter is a string and make sure you don't include the extension ".js".

function controlScript(file, boolean){ //An example of file is "/games/scripts/ultimate_script"
    var ctx = com.mojang.minecraftpe.MainActivity.currentMainActivity.get();
    ctx.runOnUiThread(new java.lang.Runnable({ run: function(){
        try{
            var rootDir = android.os.Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
            var scriptDir = new java.io.File(rootDir, file + ".js");
            
            net.zhuoweizhang.mcpelauncher.ScriptManager.setEnabled(scriptDir, boolean);
        }catch(error){
            print("The script could not be controlled, because: ");
        }
    }}));
}

The problem is, are those mobs spawned before the script is loaded, saved?
