Kode 1.3.0 - Actions, Functions & Bug Fixes

Released 2026-03-20

New Actions

actionbar

Display a message in the action bar — the text that appears above the player's hotbar. Perfect for HUD prompts, status indicators, and non-intrusive notifications.

Code (Text):

on PlayerJoin:
actionbar "&aWelcome back, player.name!"

on BlockBreak:
load $coins from coins_player.name
actionbar "&6Coins: &e$coins"

heal / feed

Fully restore a player's health or hunger with a single keyword.

Code (Text):

command /heal:
heal
feed
send "&aYou have been healed and fed!" to player

give_xp

Give a player experience points directly from a script.

Code (Text):

on BlockBreak:
if $block_type == "diamond_ore":
give_xp 50
actionbar "&b+50 XP"

set_health / set_food

Set health or food to a precise value. Health is clamped between 0 and the player's max health. Food is clamped between 0 and 20.

Code (Text):

set_health 10
set_food 6

New Built-in Functions

Four new functions available anywhere an expression is valid.

split(str, delim, index) — Split a string by a delimiter and return the element at index (0-based). Example: split("a,b,c", ",", 1) → b
indexof(str, search) — Return the character index of search inside str, or -1 if not found
isnumber(value) — Return true if value can be parsed as a number. Useful for validating command arguments
format(number, decimals) — Format a number to N decimal places. Example: format(3.14159, 2) → 3.14

Code (Text):

command /pay:
if isnumber($arg1) == false:
send "&cUsage: /pay <amount>" to player
return
set $amount = $arg1
set $label = format($amount, 2)
send "&6Paid &e$label coins." to player

New player.* Properties

player.op — true / false — whether the player is an operator
player.flying — true / false — whether the player is currently flying
player.max_health — the player's maximum health (default 20, may differ with attribute modifiers)

New Event Variables

Six events that previously had no injected variables now expose useful context:

PlayerSneak — $sneaking (true when crouching, false when standing up)
PlayerSprint — $sprinting (true when starting to sprint)
PlayerToggleFlight — $flying (true when flight is being enabled)
PlayerRespawn — $is_bed_spawn (true if respawning at a bed)
PlayerMove — $to_x, $to_y, $to_z (destination block coordinates)
ProjectileHit — $projectile_type, $shooter, $shooter_is_player

Code (Text):

on PlayerSneak:
if $sneaking == true:
actionbar "&7[Sneaking]"

on ProjectileHit:
if $shooter_is_player == true:
broadcast "&e$shooter fired a $projectile_type!"

Bug Fixes

move action now works — The move action was parsed but never executed (silent no-op). It now correctly moves the player relative to their current position: move 0 1 0 lifts the player 1 block up.
Storage write errors are now logged — If storage.yml could not be saved (e.g. disk full, permissions error), the failure was silently discarded. Kode now logs a warning so server admins can diagnose data-loss issues.
