Corebound Live Status

CoreBound Live Stream Status

A lightweight Minecraft datapack that lets players toggle their LIVE status in-game.

When enabled, the player’s name is marked with a 🔴 LIVE prefix and other players are notified in chat. The status is visible anywhere Minecraft displays the player’s team prefix, including the player list (TAB) and chat.

Usage

Use /trigger live to toggle your status.

The first use enables LIVE mode.
The next use disables it.
When LIVE is enabled
Your name receives a red LIVE indicator:
🔴 PlayerName
Other players receive a chat notification:
[LiveStatus] PlayerName is now LIVE!
When LIVE is disabled
The LIVE indicator is removed and other players receive:
[LiveStatus] PlayerName is no longer LIVE!

How it Works

The datapack uses three scoreboard objectives:

A dedicated Minecraft team named –LIVE– provides the red LIVE prefix.

The datapack checks for player input every tick, processes the requested toggle, and then resets the trigger so it can be used again.

Uninstalling

The datapack includes its own cleanup function.

When the datapack is unloaded, its cleanup function removes the scoreboards and team created by the datapack.

This removes:

live scoreboard
live_state scoreboard
_state scoreboard
–LIVE– team
Scheduled datapack functions

can run uninstall manually by /function livestream_status:uninstall

Compatibility

The datapack relies only on vanilla Minecraft commands and datapack functionality. No mods, plugins, or external software are required.

Minecraft Java Edition 1.21 through 26.1.2

Development Notes

Some ideas and programming assistance were generated with the help of AI tools (ChatGPT) for brainstorming and function logic. All code was tested, integrated and reviewed manually.
