[MC-256952] minecraft.killed_by:minecraft.lightning_bolt doesn't increase when killed by lightning bolt

minecraft.killed_by:minecraft.lightning_bolt doesn't increase when killed by lightning bolt.

Create a scoreboard objective for tracking being killed by lightning bolts and set it to display on the sidebar.

/scoreboard objectives add Struck minecraft.killed_by:minecraft.lightning_bolt

/scoreboard objectives setdisplay sidebar Struck

Set the gamerule doFireTick to false to make sure the bolt won't create fire, making the player die to fire damage instead of bolt damage.

/gamerule doFireTick false

Make sure the gamemode is survival or adventure and get struck by lightning bolts till death.

/summon lightning_bolt

The scoreboard doesn't increase.

The scoreboard would increase.
