\n# Description
\n## Installation
\nJust download the latest version from the versions page and put it in the `mods` folder. Fabric API is not needed to use this mod. **The mod only needs to be installed on the server**
\n## Usage
\n### Datapacks
\nInside a datapack, you make a normal advancement and use the `when-entities-die:killed_using_item` trigger.<\/p>\n
Example advancement that triggers when a player kills a skeleton using a diamond sword:
\n“`json
\n{
\n “display”: {
\n “icon”: {
\n “item”: “minecraft:apple”
\n },
\n “title”: {
\n “text”: “Test advancement”
\n },
\n “description”: {
\n “text”: “Test advancement description”
\n },
\n “frame”: “task”,
\n “show_toast”: true,
\n “announce_to_chat”: true,
\n “hidden”: false
\n },
\n “criteria”: {
\n “requirement”: {
\n “trigger”: “when-entities-die:killed_using_item”,
\n “conditions”: {
\n “item”: {
\n “items”: [
\n “minecraft:diamond_sword”
\n ]
\n },
\n “entity”: {
\n “type”: “minecraft:skeleton”
\n }
\n }
\n }
\n }
\n}
\n“`
