/OnEvent (EG /OnEvent entity death @a fall_damage run say Oof)

The idea here is that we can have commands that trigger on certain events.

This would be more streamlined than current methods for checking events and could be more processor efficient.

Furthermore, we could check specifics such as how the player died.

Examples:

/OnEvent entity death @a fall_damage run say Oof

This would have the server/command block say "Oof" when the player dies by fall damage.

/OnEvent block ~ ~ ~ random_tick_update run....

This would trigger when the select block receives a random tick update (this is what causes plants to grow, water to freeze, ect)

    Personally, I would prefer it more as /event <event type> add <command> as you can have the command be run by the entity experiencing the event, and at the position of the block.

    So for your saying oof, it would be /event death.fall_damage add execute if entity @s[type=player] say Oof

    Then, you could have /event <event type> add <command>, /event <event type> list, /event <event type> query <command>, and /event <event type> remove <command>.

    So the add will add the command to the event, list lists all commands, query returns true / false for a given command, and remove removes the given command.

    Perhaps instead of command, you supply a "key", and then remove the key.

    Maybe it could be more like this:

    /onevent <block or entity> <specified block or entity> <something happens to block or entity> <what happens after that>

    Minecraft Java Edition should have a few JavaScript-like commands:

    onEvent

    setProperty
