Suggestion: Add the `cbossbar` command

James103 commented 3 years ago

Currently, there is no way to create or modify client-side bossbars that I know of, which may be useful (in conjunction with scripts) for things like displaying the client-side day counter, a progress bar, or something like that. To fix this, I would like to suggest a /cbossbar command, which works exactly like the /bossbar command, except with the following differences:

Only boss bars created with the /cbossbar command can be modified by said command.
There is no /cbossbar set ... players, nor is there a /cbossbar get ... players.
/cbossbar get ... visible defaults to false for newly created boss bars.
Depending on the implementation, boss bars created with /cbossbar may or may not persist on reconnect or game restart.

Hmm, if this is a feature that is primarily intended for scripts, might be better to have it implemented as a script function. That said, given the direction the scripting API has taken recently, I would prefer if the feature was added to jsmacros than clientcommands scripting.

Same for #282?

Then, should this issue be moved to the client commands scripting repository?
