Delay

Every action has a special attribute delay. It's the delay in ticks before starting the action. For example:

items:
  chain_events:
    display_name: "%#FE5A00%chain_events"
    permission: test.chain_events
    resource:
      material: COAL
      generate: true
      textures:
      - "minecraft:item/diamond.png"
    events:
      interact:
        right:
          execute_commands:
            cmd1:
              command: 'tellraw {player} {"text":"Action 1","color":"gold"}'
              as_console: true
              delay: 0
            cmd2:
              command: 'tellraw {player} {"text":"Action 2","color":"gold"}'
              as_console: true
              delay: 20
            cmd3:
              command: 'tellraw {player} {"text":"Action 3","color":"gold"}'
              as_console: true
              delay: 40
          play_sound_1:
            name: minecraft:block.note_block.banjo
            delay: 0
          play_sound_2:
            name: minecraft:block.note_block.banjo
            pitch: 1.2
            delay: 20
          play_sound_3:
            name: minecraft:block.note_block.banjo
            pitch: 1.5
            delay: 40

Multiple actions of the same type

You can set the same action multiple times. You just have to add _anything at the end. For example if you want to play two sounds you have to write this:

play_sound_first:
  name: itemsadder:ambient.creepy
  volume: 1
  pitch: 1
play_sound_second:
  name: minecraft:ambient.cave
  volume: 1
  pitch: 1
play_sound_3:
  name: minecraft:ambient.cave
  volume: 1
  pitch: 1

Actions permission

Every action has a special attribute permission. It's the permission the player must have before starting the action. For example the player must have myitems.usage.secret_items_dispenser permission to play the sound. In this example you will notice an "issue". The sound is played even if the user has no permission for the give event. That's because... well, permission check is only on the give_item.

  test_block:
    display_name: display-name-test_block
    permission: test_block
    resource:
      material: PAPER
      generate: true
      textures:
      - block/test_block.png
    specific_properties:
      block:
        placed_model:
          type: REAL_NOTE
          break_particles_material: SMITHING_TABLE
    events:
      placed_block:
        interact:
          give_item:
            permission: "myitems.usage.secret_items_dispenser"
            item: DIAMOND
          play_sound:
            name: itemsadder:ambient.creepy
            volume: 1
            pitch: 1

Setting the same permission to every action

If you want to set the same permission to every action without copy and paste you can! Use this special attribute all_actions_permission. For example:

  test_block:
    display_name: display-name-test_block
    permission: test_block
    resource:
      material: PAPER
      generate: true
      textures:
      - block/test_block.png
    specific_properties:
      block:
        placed_model:
          type: REAL_NOTE
          break_particles_material: SMITHING_TABLE
    all_actions_permission: "myitems.usage.secret_items_dispenser"
    events:
      placed_block:
        interact:
          give_item:
            item: DIAMOND
      play_sound:
        name: itemsadder:ambient.creepy
        volume: 1
        pitch: 1

Flow customization

Available on ItemsAdder 3.6.0+

ItemsAdder allows you to further customize your actions by avoiding their execution in some specific cases explained in the next lines. This allows further customization of your items logic.

For example you can create a wand which plays specific sound only if a mob was successfully attacked and which plays another sound in case of failed attack.
