Help with executing code for projectiles

[luna_0_7]

I made a weapon that makes trident rain down from the sky, and i am trying to make them strike lightning on the ground when they die. Which seems simple enough. But no matter what I do it doesn't work with the tridents. The line of code is simple enough. It goes like this. EntityDeath -> If Entity Type = Trident -> Spawnlightning Location is a game value with the location of projectile. But it doesn't work. I dont know if its because i have the trident in the chest and i need something else, or because of the game value. But please help me.

You should try to change the EntityDeath event to ProjectileHit, which runs when any projectile lands on a block or hits a player. You were using EntityDeath which doesn't work because a trident does not "die" when landing.

So I changed it to projectile damage, but it still doesn't work, i used a game value location and damager as the lightning location. but no lightning struck

The if type = trident is the thing that isn't working. Do i just put a trident in the chest?

Are you able to post your code, you can do this by using dfonline.dev.

not projectile damage, Projectile Hit

yes, put an item of a trident in chest, not a string

Where did you get that image? Is that a guide with all code blocks or something?
