Talk: Function (Java Edition)

Redirect and deletion

So I see this redirect page has been marked for deletion. I agree that this page should not redirect to the "commands" page but why must it be deleted? Can't we just edit the redirect away? --Pepijn (talk) 21:07, 11 May 2017 (UTC)

Certainly, if you're prepared to write the article, but we can't leave a completely blank page. If you ARE ready to write the article, it would be very welcome and you can feel free to delete the {{delete}} template. It doesn't have to be complete or perfect, but it does need to follow the basic rules for editing the wiki. If you need some direction, start by reading Minecraft Wiki:Welcome. And thank you for being interested in helping out here! – Auldrick (talk · contribs) 21:17, 11 May 2017 (UTC)

Alright, done (for now). I hope it's enough for now to justify this page's existence. A simple text based tutorial could probably be added and maybe even some notes on the more complex possibilities of this new system. --Pepijn (talk) 22:34, 11 May 2017 (UTC)

Singular vs plural

PepijnMC, at a discussion last year about singular versus plural page titles, the prevailing idea was to follow Wikipedia's convention to prefer singular titles, unless the page is in large part a list (Commands or Achievements for instance). I think according to that, it would be better to name the page Function. – Sealbudsman ^talk/_contr 01:18, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

Alright, was not aware of that sorry. Moved everything to 'Function' now. --Pepijn (talk) 13:41, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

Commands run inside a function will obey maxCommandChainLength

I don't really understand what's "run inside a function" means. Is the total amount of commands run by functions inside of a tick set by this gamerule or may a function file contain up to maxCommandChainLength commands? Or does this mean, maximum recursion depth is maxCommandChainLength? | violine1101^(Talk) 15:31, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
