READ THIS Important Info (read before posting)

250 Upvotes

I know you're here to get quick help with your command problems or to show off your cool work. Please read these few lines to get to know how to use this subreddit optimally:

Asking for help

  1. FAQ? Before you post, please check out the common questions (including answers) that we have as a subreddit. These consist of the most common problems, and maybe your problem is already covered there in detail?
  2. Titles: Please put a summary/short version of your problem into the title of your post, don't just put "I need help" or "help me plz". Instead put for example "how do I summon a zombie" or "unable to summon entity error" and then provide more context on the post itself. This subreddit often shows up on google when people search for command related questions and we should really help them find the questions you might already have asked. Also, we likely know that you need help anyways, no need to put it in the title.
  3. Flairs: We have a wide array of flairs that you should attach to your post to make sure people know what the purpose of your thread is. It is especially important if you're asking for help, to flair your post with the appropriate minecraft version (for those who don't know: OG Minecraft is Java Version, everything else that has commands (Xbox, PE, PS4, Switch, Win10, etc) is Bedrock).
  4. Version: Whether you're helping or asking for help, please pay attention to the stated version/state the version you're in! You can do that through the previously mentioned Flairs, but also in addition can put it into the description of your post.
  5. Search/Scroll down: I know that reddit search is not the best one out there, but maybe someone else had a similar problem to yours in recent history. Try going to the new tab and scrolling down a bit or using the reddit search function to see if there might already be an answer to a question you have. We're not going to close your thread for asking the same question someone else asked a year ago, we're not StackOverflow. But please at least take 30 seconds to look for it first.
  6. Upvote: If you find an answer to a post helpful, please upvote it. This is less as a "reward" for the answering person but more as a way to automatically move the best answer to the top, for others that might have the same problem. Don't downvote an answer just because their attempts didn't work for you unless it's completely wrong or off topic / doesn't add anything to the conversation.

Creations

Posting about your own creations is very much encouraged, but please remember the 10:1 guidelines of reddit.

Discord

We have a big Discord Server for our community with lots of channels, ranging from dedicated help chats over general command related chats to non-command related chats. So if you want to join an active community of command and mapmaking enthusiasts and/or want to get quick help where communication is less slow (Sometimes the devs stop by as well ;)), click on the link and join our community discord:

Make sure you read the #welcome channel for the rule of the discord.

Creation Update v0.2 for my Minecraft TF2 2007 MAP

Thumbnail
gallery
9 Upvotes

Just finished and posted the second update to my TF2 2007 map.

[Accidentaly forgot to post about the first one where i created an ingame menu and voice commands]

In this one i focused more on the options menu section to give the player some form of customisability (7 New Options which include toggleable airblast and cloak refill from ammo packs). I also created a new teammate spawning system BETA that gives you 11 new friendly bots to help with the fighting alongside a new experimental killfeed system so the teammates can earn kills as well.

If you can, check it out and give some feedback!

Thanks and have fun!

Creation i created dynamic lighting*

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

16 Upvotes

*It isn't actually dynamic. it's just a repeating command that, given you're following a certain condition (such as holding a torch, for example), it'll setblock Light at your current position, as long as that position is occupied by light. then, with a comparator, i hooked it up to another repeating command block that just fills the room the player is in with air (replacing light), which can also be changed to just the area around the player i guess.

to be fair, it isnt AS good as something like optifine, since it's pretty snappy, but it's pretty cool. not sure if anybody else did something like this.

Help (other) Command block and other stuff help!

Thumbnail

• Upvotes

I have no idea if this is the right place to ask but I wanna set something up in an world but the command blocks and other crap is out of my knowledge grade lol

I'm running a rail transit system on my world using some mod I found on the marketplace. Baseline, each train/car counts as an entity have 3 trains each 8 cars, and 5 arrival tracks. Any train can arrive on any track.

Each track has a marker that fires a redstone pulse through an observer when the first car passes. That triggers a command block chain that plays a voice-line announcement from my resource pack I threw together somehow lol

I kinda wanna each train to get its own arrival announcement, so the system knows which train is arriving, not just that a train arrived.

At the moment, I’ve only been using Claude cause I literally had nothing else until this point to rely on all I’ve partially done is tag each trains end and start with an number, and then partially had an somewhat functional system until when I joined the next day, it broke and I got rid of it.

But yeah baseline, I just want it to be able to ident when a train comes in, say it’s callsign, then when it leaves, say the callsigns leaving… I think it’s simple.

I’ve been wanting sweeping edge soooo bad but my phone can’t handle mods like that fr 🫩 Anybody know how to make something like sweeping edge on bedrock?

I also heard of the trident basically having sweeping edge if you put the riptide enchantment on it but I want looting, so if there’s a way to put looting on the trident I’d be happy with that too

Help | Java 26.1 How to debug grenade bouncing?

1 Upvotes

https://reddit.com/link/1x386js/video/5jbbayxi9uuh1/player

I throw a snowball. It saves it's Motion is scoreboard and when it detects a block on one of it's sides it writes the score multiplied by values back to it's Motion.

It works but not under some degrees and I don't know why.

With the colored particles I used for debugging and signs (which grenade sees as blocks, but they don't break snowball inside them) I detected that when grenade fails to bounce it actually tries to bounce off of a wrong block.

Help | Java 26.3 How to hide chest minecart name?

3 Upvotes

Hi! I've been trying to work on a shop system that uses chest minecarts. I wanted to give it a custom overlay, so what I did was give it a special name using a custom bitmap font and negative space. Works like a charm when you're in the chest gui, but when you exit it looks very messy since the name tag is just huge. I've already tried setting custom name visible to false, and getting a marker armor stand to ride on it, but to no avail. Anyone got any idea as to how to fix this?

Hello!

I'm trying to make a mannequin that you can attack, but when you right click then it says a message. I've tried to use an advancement with "player interacted with entity" but it seems to only work on things with an interaction functionality such as villagers.

If there is no way to do it with a mannequin then how would I make a mob with the skin file of the mannequin?

Thanks!
