Experimental Features
Experimental features can be used to enable syntax and other behavior on a per-script basis. Some of these features are new proposals that we are testing while others may have unsafe or complex elements that regular users may not need.
While we have tested the available experiments to the best of our ability, they are they are still in development. As a result, they are subject to change and may contain bugs. Experiments should be used at your own discretion.
Additionally, example scripts demonstrating usage of the available experiments can be found here.

### Queue **Enable by adding `using queues` to your script.** A collection that removes elements whenever they are requested. This is useful for processing tasks or keeping track of things that need to happen only once. :::applescript= set {queue} to a new queue of "hello" and "world" broadcast the first element of {queue} # "hello" is now removed broadcast the first element of {queue} # "world" is now removed # queue is empty :::applescript= set {queue} to a new queue of all players set {player 1} to a random element out of {queue} set {player 2} to a random element out of {queue} # players 1 and 2 are guaranteed to be distinct Queues can be looped over like a regular list. ### Script Reflection **Enable by adding `using script reflection` to your script.** This feature includes: - The ability to reference a script in code. - Finding and running functions by name. - Reading configuration files and values. ### Local Variable Type Hints **Enable by adding `using type hints` to your script.** Local variable type hints enable Skript to understand what kind of values your local variables will hold at parse time. Consider the following example: :::applescript set {_a} to 5 set {_b} to "some string" ... do stuff ... set {_c} to {_a} in lowercase # oops i used the wrong variable Previously, the code above would parse without issue. However, Skript now understands that when it is used, `{_a}` could only be a number (and not a text). Thus, the code above would now error with a message about mismatched types. Please note that this feature is currently only supported by **simple local variables**. A simple local variable is one whose name does not contain any expressions: :::applescript {_var} # can use type hints {_var::%player's name%} # can't use type hints ### Runtime Error Catching **Enable by adding `using error catching` to your script.** A new `catch [run[ ]time] error[s]` section allows you to catch and suppress runtime errors within it and access them later with `[the] last caught [run[ ]time] errors`. :::applescript catch runtime errors: ... set worldborder center of {_border} to {_my unsafe location} ... if last caught runtime errors contains "Your location can't have a NaN value as one of its components": set worldborder center of {_border} to location(0, 0, 0) ### Equippable Components **Enable by adding `using equippable components` to your script.** Equippable components allows retrieving and changing the data of an item in the usage as equipment/armor. Below is an example of creating a blank equippable component, modifying it, and applying it to an item: :::applescript set {_component} to a blank equippable component: set the camera overlay to "custom_overlay" set the allowed entities to a zombie and a skeleton set the equip sound to "block.note_block.pling" set the equipped model id to "custom_model" set the shear sound to "ui.toast.in" set the equipment slot to chest slot allow event-equippable component to be damage when hurt allow event-equippable component to be dispensed allow event-equippable component to be equipped onto entities allow event-equippable component to be sheared off allow event-equippable component to swap equipment set the equippable component of {_item} to {_component} Changes can be made directly on to the existing equippable component of an item whether using the item itself or the retrieved equippable component :::applescript set the equipment slot of {_item} to helmet slot set {_component} to the equippable component of {_item} allow {_component} to swap equipment For more details about the syntax, visit [equippable component](https://docs.skriptlang.org/docs.html?search=equippable%20component) on our documentation website.New Documentation Site
Over the past few months, we have been working hard to build our new documentation site. Not only do we have a new-and-improved syntaxes page, we are also finally launching a proper platform for official tutorials on using Skript, from writing scripts to building addons.
As we continue to prepare the site for launch later this year, the beta is available for viewing at https://beta-docs.skriptlang.org.

We have an official Discord community where we share announcements and and perform testing for upcoming features.
