(Dust) particle cmd

• When applying the particle cmd it needs 4 options more than the normal particles

  • <R> <G> <B> <Size>

  • Size is simple to know, is just the size of the particle, set it to 1 if don't know what to write

  • But R G B are sometimes hard to understand, since in the normal world the amount of each one is a number between 0 and 255, but in minecraft it is between 0 and 1, so you should make some conversions using math, calculator, etc.

• This link will help you to select the correct values to <R> <G> <B>:

To get the NBT Tag of the item in your hand, you can have a plugin that allows that, downloading a mod, or just run the vanilla command: /data get entity @s SelectedItem
