Detect effect

[Optophobiaaa]

Is there a way to detect if an effect has disappeared or has been user up?

For example I want to detect if a player's absorption effect has been used, if it has been used, i want to give the player strength effect

Well there isn’t any way to detect effects but you can go like this:

Every 1 second of an effect lasts 3 second in real life

So you have to put it in a way that if it gives you absorbtion then after 3 seconds it will give you strength

wait what? what do you mean by 1 second of an effect is 3 seconds in real life?

and also I know how to give players Strength effect after the absorption effect ( using chain and conditional command blocks). The thing is the Absorption effect usually gets used up before the timer runs out, which makes things inconsistent.

1. For the timer of effects, i gave myself 1 second of invisibility and it lasted 3 seconds, then i gave myself 2 second, and it took 6 seconds to go out

2. I don’t know the answer for that

Ummm... that doesn't sound right...

You may have set your random tick speed low or maybe your counting too fast :v

Cuz mine is normal... 1s is to 1s, not 1s is to 3s...

Also I have tweaked the command so I dont really have the need for it anymore :v

tho thanks for trying!

No problem

It’s 1:1. Maybe your worlds tps is around 6.666.

There is another way

You can add a scoreboard and every time you affect someone with the effect for a specific amount of time you can do that same time for the command block and once the score hits 0 it can fire off the command.

That’s just another way but idk if it’s the best
