Sneak Tag

When you are running commands and you want to detect if a player is sneaking you have to make a scoreboard for it. It would be great if there was a sneaking tag so you could detect when a player was sneaking with the execute if command.

{Sneak:0b} = not sneaking

{Sneak:1b} = sneaking

    The point on sneaking is so if your doing commands and you want to add Sneak detection you can easily do so. Before this you either had to no java or create a score board.

    But the point of NBT data is for long-term storage. Why would it be relevant whether or not a player is sneaking if after they relog, they'll instantly unsneak?

    Also, like you mentioned, you can just make a scoreboard objective and test for that. It's really not that difficult. If you're in 1.15 and above, you could even create a custom predicate in a datapack using the entity_properties condition that tests if a player is sneaking. There's no point in this new NBT tag.

    "[If you wanted sneak detection] you either had to know Java or create a scoreboard"

    Then create a freaking scoreboard it's not that hard.

    Andre Chen The point is to make it easier. Using a scoreboard requires multiple lines and is inelegant. Using a predicate requires creating a separate file. This all makes it more annoying to easily check if a player is sneaking.
