Request for help with using extension #4

Open michaldolega opened 3 years ago

michaldolega commented 3 years ago

Hello,

Sorry for bothering, but I gave up after long search around topic of extensions for Minecraft: Education Edition.

I would ask how can I actually build an extension like yours and use it into Minecraft: Education Edition?

I am not able to build it using npm package pxt- (i tried with core and microbit). It seems that ptx repository for Minecraft is private right now and not published by Microsoft.

I noticed that official microsoft extensions like https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-minecraft-HOC2019 can be imported as extension (simply url to github allows for import), but it didn't work for your repo.

Sorry for asking you about stuff, which should be documented somewhere else, but i will appreciate any help. It would be great to extend easily minecraft makecode API for students.

Hi,

What I am making with pxt-worldBuilder isn't an extension, but just some Typescript code what you can import into the MakeCode Codebuilder inside Minecraft Education Edition (that you can open with the 'c'-key). It is basically a couple of commands that you can use to automate building structures inside the game to speed up building, instead of building block by block.

I tried to search on how to make a mod for Minecraft Education Edition, but it isn't supported officially, and I haven't found much documentation about it. You can make custom blocks however if you want to create those for your student to play with. Some information about that can be found here: defining blocks.

In what way would you like to extend Minecraft for your students?

If you are still looking for some documentation to build mods with. Just found this link for bedrock (https://wiki.bedrock.dev/). Maybe it works for M:EE as well. I haven't tried tho.
