Minecraft – How to set the players “tame” score to 1 if they tame a wolf

minecraft-commandsminecraft-java-edition

I'm making a map and I need to give the player +1 for taming a wolf but I don't know the command. All I know is /scoreboard objectives add tame {part I don't know}. Then some command block that gives them the point. Then maybe testfor @p[score=tame=1].

All the commands I tried are:

testfor @p[team=start]
scoreboard objectives add tame{I don't know}
scoreboard players set @p{I don't know}

This solution is based on defining the person closest to a wolf when it first sits down as it's tamer.

The reason for this workaround is twofold:

Players don't have a "wolves tamed" statistic
Wolves don't have a "tamed" entry in their NBT, and it's not possible to look for an empty "ownerUUID"

Start with the following commands.

/scoreboard objective add isTamed dummy
/scoreboard objective add wolvesTamed dummy Wolves Tamed

This will add an objective that is used to check for tamed wolves, and another for the players.

Now run the following commands on a clock

/scoreboard players add @e[type=Wolf] isTamed 1 {Sitting:1}
/scoreboard players add @e[type=Wolf,score_isTamed_min=3] isTamed -1
/execute @e[type=Wolf,score_isTamed=1,score_isTamed_min=1] scoreboard players add @p[r=3] wolvesTamed 1

This will continuously increase the isTamed objective by 1 as long as the wolf sits. This is followed by decreasing it by one if it is greater than 2 (this is not technically necessary, but keeps the scores low)

In addition, the player closest to a wolf (and within 3m) with an isTamed score of exactly 1 (which can only happen when it first sits down) will have their wolvesTamed score increased by 1.

There might be an issue with the last command, because wolves might not be able to use "cheats". In this case, you would need to find a way to use the /trigger command instead.

The command to check if anyone on team red has killed an ocelot is

/testfor @a[score_leader_stat=1, team=red]

Note that there's an underscore between score and leader_stat, not an equal sign! Get the output of that command block and hook it into two other command blocks with

/tp @a[team=red] x y z
/tellraw @a {text:"Red Team has slain the Ocelot!", color:red}

In a 1.8 snapshot, you could also use

/title @a title {text:"Red Team has slain the Ocelot!", color:red}

to get a large text display. You will need a set of such command blocks for every team and every possible leader. Note that if red team's leader is an Ocelot as well, they will also win the game by killing their own leader.

Minecraft – How to set separate scoreboard

Currently, your command setup has a few problems. You've got two different scoreboard scores for the two teams, displaying those scores in different locations, and adding a point to all players (by using just @a without specifying which players you actually want).

The simple solution is to use a team selector in your point-increment system.

/scoreboard players add @a[team=TeamName] PointsName 1

Boom. Your system, as you have it designed right now, will work. This will select all of the players on TeamName and give them a point in their designated scoreboard.

However, from a design standpoint, there's a much better way to do this by using fake players. To start, set up just one scoreboard and put it in the sidebar:

/scoreboard objectives add points dummy Points
/scoreboard objectives setdisplay sidebar points

Now, the /scoreboard players command doesn't actually require you to specify a player that is online. In fact, that player doesn't even need to exist. But it will happily keep a score for them. So, whenever you want to increment the team score, you can just do this:

/scoreboard players add Team points 1

What this will give you is a scoreboard that keeps track of team points in one entry, in one scoreboard. That way, players can compare, at a glance, what the score is, without needing to rely on the tab menu.
