ModifyExpressionValue over a ternary expression

[HotelCalifornia]

For instance in the following expression:

if (random.nextFloat() < (this.level().getDifficulty == Difficulty.HARD ? 0.05F : 0.01F)) {

is it possible to modify the return values of each branch of the ternary, or else the ultimate result of the whole expression?

It seems impossible to match a ternary expression directly given that ? is a wildcard in the Expression DSL, unless I use an Injector and point at the right offset, which seems overly brittle and exactly the kind of thing ModifyExpressionValue was created to solve.

This functionality also seems broadly useful, given that the ternary expression is quite a common pattern (in the Minecraft source, at the very least).

You can nonetheless achieve what you are asking for as i was going to explain when I get a chance

@LlamaLad7 an explanation would be much appreciated 🙏

@cputnam-a11y is correct that you cannot currently target ternaries directly (sorry for the overly harsh reply) but here you can happily WrapOperation on the Expression ?.nextFloat() < ? for example to change the result of the ternary.
You can also ModifyExpressionValue on @Expression("0.05", "0.1") with a suitable Slice

oh yes of course, good call! thank you 🙂
