Description

Math-Minecraft-Squid-Workshop-Project

Minecraft math helper by Mingshi Yang (YMS2001) - Squid Workshop.
Minecraft Java Edition 1.13+ is supported (versions before 1.16 were just briefly tested).

You may need to edit pack.mcmeta to remove the compatibility warning.
The datapack content is identical across supported versions, so modifying this single file is easier than maintaining multiple nearly identical copies. Please refer to the Pack Format documentation and adjust the pack.mcmeta file according to your Minecraft version.

Introduction

This datapack provide fast, high precision math operation functions using Scoreboard.

  • Constants are stored under objective swMath_C. Feel free to define more in this file.
  • Variables, including inputs and outputs, are stored under objective swMath_V.
  • "sw" means Squid Workshop.
  • For high precision computation, the input and output may have units of 0.0001. i.e., the score 10000 is used to represent 1, utilizing 4 digits. Actual error in computation is usually on magnitude of 0.01%. One visualization of different magnitudes of error is here. See example for implementation detail.
  • No entities involved in calculations, avoiding entity selection ensures high throughout performance, compatibility and easy maintenance.
