Entities & mobs · Step
Set entity velocity
Give an entity an exact speed in each direction, replacing whatever it was moving at.
m.entity.set_velocity
In a flow
“When a player steps on a block → Set entity velocity: up 1.”
When a player steps on a block → Set entity velocity: up 1.
What it does
Give an entity an exact speed in each direction, replacing whatever it was moving at. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. Find it under Entities & mobs in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when the flow needs to: give an entity an exact speed in each direction, replacing whatever it was moving at.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
