Calculating the distance between 2 blocks (X and Z only)

notautismatall

This might be helpful with someone who is trying to make a module that can calculate how far the player has moved from his starting point.

function diff (a, b) {
  if (a > b)
    return a - b
  else
    return b - a
}

var startX = 0, startZ = 0, diffX = 0, diffZ = 0, bruh = 0;

module.on("enable", function() {
  startX = mc.thePlayer.posX
  startZ = mc.thePlayer.posZ
})

module.on("update", function() {
  diffX = diff(startX, mc.thePlayer.posX)
  diffZ = diff(startZ, mc.thePlayer.posZ)

  bruh = diffX + diffZ
  Chat.log('Blocks traveled: ' + bruh.toFixed(1).toString())
})

@notautismatall Nice

Aftery

@notautismatall Math.abs(start - current)
or alternatively, have you ever heard of... the pythagorean distance
