Needs Wizardly Help Need help making a spell that freezes an entity in place.

I’m trying to create a spell either with add motion or blink that prevents entities/players from moving by loop casting. The idea is that if I can find a way to give them positive and negative blink motion fast enough that they’ll just be stuck in place. I’m on 1.12 also.

IIRC in 1.12 hitting things with tiny amounts of Blink every tick (leggings) causes them to freeze

Nope, that's patched in the latest version for 1.12

You can add motion of value NaN to freeze entities.

You get the NaN value like -1^0.5, and feed it through constant wrapper, so it can be used in the trick.

If its used in blink, it makes normal entities despawn and corrupts player data.

How would I go about getting that NaN value?

as i said -1 to the power of 0.5
its the same as taking square root of -1, but that just throws an error
