How to control an agent?

Question

and7ey opened this issue 4 years ago · comments

I create an agent with the NewAgent command. It is created at the user's position.

How could I teleport the agent to the user's position? The standard command tp @c doesn't work (looks like @c works at Education Edition only). Is there any way to kill and create the agent again?
How could I give something to the agent? I tried replaceitem and give, but again it doesn't accept neither @c nor player.Agent. I was thinking about using the agent collect command (it works!), but I see no way to drop blocks near the agent.

This page may be useful: https://education.minecraft.net/wp-content/uploads/Code_Connection_API.pdf. It has an agent tptoplayer command and and an agent drop command.

Thanks. I've read that document.

agent tptoplayer doesn't work - it says 'tptoplayer' part is unknown (I use it with player.Exec() - is that right?). Upd. agent tp works :).
agent drop drops the items, which is already in the agent's inventory. But I would like to add something to its inventory.

I am experimenting with the standard (non-education) edition of Minecraft. But the education edition option is enabled.

I don't think there is any way to give the agent items without actually dropping it to it, but I'm not entirely sure.

Thanks. Looks like the agent can build something without having blocks in its inventory. The following JS code works in Education Edition -

agent.setItem(RED_SAND, 1, 1)
agent.setAssist(PLACE_ON_MOVE, true)
agent.move(FORWARD, 1)
