REALMS

This will NOT work on realms, the reason for this is that on realms there is a bug where modified player.json files in the behavior packs do not work, and the game just ignores them.

This may be fixed in the future but as of 1.20.15 it is not fixed. This also applies to older version of minecraft as well.

If you wish to disable team damage (so one cannot hurt their teammates), assign a tag with the team name to every teammate (I'm going to use team1, team2, team3 and team4 for this example).

Now add this damage sensor component into your player.json "components": {}. See comments for explanation.

Due to the primitive filters used by projectile entities, you have to use a completely different method to achieve this.

The process uses:

Tags
Ticking
Hurt on Condition
Functions
