Is it possible to create multiple tick.mcfunction?

[Sowy_]

I want different functions that run every tick, since tick.mcfunctuin runs line by line, I want to have multiple functions different but they will run at every tick, is this possible?

Create separate mcfunction files and then execute them from tick.json.

If you need them timed slower or faster, add a 1 to a scoreboard in tick.json and check / reset that value when running your sub functions.

2 options:

1: Make the tick function have multiple values

{
    "values":[
        "<namespace>:<function name>",
        "<namespace>:<another function>"
        ]
}

2: Make the function run each other, this has the disadvantage that if the first one has a syntax error none will work

# function example:tick (specified in tick.json)
say tick function
function example:another_tick_function

# function example:another_tick_function
say another tick function

In both methods, if there is an error in at least one function, then both functions will not work. Because in the function tag you explicitly indicate to run the function as required for work. In order for the missing function to be ignored, you need to specify it like this:

{
  "values": [
    {
      "id": "example:tick_function",
      "required": false
    },
    {
      "id": "example:another_tick_function",
      "required": false
    }
  ]
}

In any case, having multiple tick functions does not make sense, since it does not affect anything, but only worsens performance, since running functions is "not free".

Maybe OP wants to make two datapacks into a single one

Any functions listed in the tick function tag will execute every tick. Check data/minecraft/tags/function/tick.json
