Commands & NBT Tags[edit]
Target selectors
@e
Targets entities
Can specify type of entity by entity ID to either include or exclude with [type=Chicken] or [type=!Skeleton]
Example: /kill @e[r=50,type=Chicken] - kills all chickens within a radius of 50 blocks
Example: /tp @e[r=5] ~ ~5 ~ - any entity within a radius of 5 blocks will be teleported five blocks in the air
Commands
/blockdata
Modifies NBT data at a specific coordinate, the <dataTag> merges with the block at that position
Can be used to change the contents of a chest
Usage: /blockdata <x> <y> <z> <dataTag>
/clone
Clones all the blocks (not entities) from a given area to a different given area
Up to 32768 (323) blocks can be copied
The clone can be replace , masked, or filtered
replace will copy every block (the default behavior)
masked will copy only non-air blocks
filtered will remove unnecessary blocks
It can additionally be move , force, or normal
move will move the selection from the first location to the second location, which may overlap
force will force the cloning operation, even if the areas overlap
normal only needs to be specified if using filtered
Usage: /clone <x1> <y1> <z1> <x2> <y2> <z2> <x> <y> <z> [mode]
Example: /clone 1001 3 1002 1011 3 992 1001 5 992 masked
/entitydata
Works similarly to /blockdata, but for entities
Does not work on players
Usage: /entitydata <entity> <dataTag>
Example: /entitydata @e[type=Sheep,r=20] {Color:14} will color all the sheep within a radius of 20 red
/execute
Allows commands to be run from the position of specified entities
A detect argument allows the /execute command to run only if a block is detected at a specific location relative to the target
Usage:
/execute <entity> <x> <y> <z> <command…>
/execute <entity> <x> <y> <z> detect <x2> <y2> <z2> <block> <data> <command…>
Example:
/execute @a ~ ~ ~ detect ~ ~-1 ~ minecraft:grass 0 say You are standing on grass. will make everyone who is standing on grass say that they are doing so
/execute @e[type=Chicken] ~ ~ ~ fill ~-1 ~-1 ~-1 ~1 ~1 ~1 minecraft:glass will create a small cube of glass around all chickens
Commands run using the /execute command pass their success value back to the command block running them
/fill
Fills a given volume with a specified block
Up to 32768 blocks can be filled
oldBlockHandling works like with /setblock, but with additional options: hollow to only fill the outer layer of blocks and fill the inner part with air, and outline to fill the outer layer of blocks and ignore the inner part
Works similarly to /setblock
Usage: /fill <x1> <y1> <z1> <x2> <y2> <z2> <TileName> [dataValue] [oldBlockHandling] [dataTag]
Example: /fill 1001 3 1002 1011 5 992 wool 6 replace will fill the given area with pink wool
Can filter certain blocks
Only if it’s used to fill in replace mode with “normal” blocks.
It does not work when filling with block entities.
Usage: /fill [x] [y] [z] [x] [y] [z] [BlockName] [Data] replace [filterBlockName] [filterData]
/particle
Spawns particles in a given area
Usage: /particle <name> <x> <y> <z> <xd> <yd> <zd> <speed> [count] [force]
Example: /particle lava ~ ~1 ~ 1 1 1 0.5 50 normal @e[type=Chicken] will create 50 lava popping particles, centred one block above the block/entity running the command, spreading around a radius of 1 block, with a speed of 0.5, relative to all chickens in that world
The force argument can be set to force to display particles even if a player has his 'Particles' toggle set to Minimal or Decreased
List of particles: hugeexplosion, largeexplode, fireworksSpark, bubble, suspended, depthsuspend, townaura, crit, magicCrit, smoke, mobSpell, mobSpellAmbient, spell, instantSpell, witchMagic, note, portal, enchantmenttable, explode, flame, lava, footstep, splash, wake, largesmoke, cloud, reddust, snowballpoof, dripWater, dripLava, snowshovel, slime, heart, angryVillager, happyVillager, barrier, iconcrack_(ID), blockcrack_(ID), blockdust_(ID)_(DATA), droplet, take, mobappearance
/replaceitem <entity|block> ...
Can replace items in any inventory, including the inventories of mobs such as zombies
Usage:
/replaceitem entity <entity> <slot> <item> [amount] [data value]
/replaceitem block <x> <y> <z> <slot> <item> [amount] [data value]
Example:
/replaceitem entity @e[type=Zombie] slot.weapon minecraft:iron_sword 1 0 will give all the zombies iron swords
/replaceitem entity @p slot.hotbar.0 minecraft:fish 4 2 will put 4 clownfish in the players first hotbar slot
/replaceitem block ~ ~1 ~ slot.container.5 minecraft:redstone_block 1 0 will put a redstone block in the 6th slot of a container 1 block above the player
/stats <entity|block> ...
Usage:
/stats entity <selector> <mode>
/stats block [x] [y] [z] <mode>
Alternative and more featureful way of interacting with CommandStats
Will update a scoreboard objective based on the number of entities/blocks which have been affected by the command, it updates the objective for the entity that ran the command, fake players can be used when run in a command block
After the mode there are currently 5 possible stats that can be updated: SuccessCount, AffectedBlocks, AffectedEntities, AffectedItems and QueryResult
For example: /stats entity @a set AffectedBlocks @a Test will update a scoreboard objective named 'Test' for all players whenever a command is performed relative to them, the objective will update by the number of blocks affected by the command since the stat was set to AffectedBlocks, this means if the command is /fill then it will update the objective for whoever is running the command (@a) by the number of blocks filled
/testforblocks
Compares two areas of a world
The mode can be set to all or masked, all is the default while masked will ignore air
Usage: /testforblocks <x1> <y1> <z1> <x2> <y2> <z2> [mode]
Example: /testforblocks 100 64 100 107 69 107 0 64 0 masked
/title
Can make text display on a players screen in the form of a title and/or subtitle using JSON
/title @a times <fadeIn> <stay> <fadeOut>
Set the fade in time, the stay on screen time and the fade out time for the title
/title @a title <raw json message>
Set and start showing the title and subtitle
/title @a subtitle <raw json message>
Set the subtitle (optional)
/title @a clear
Clear titles immediately
/title @a reset
Reset all title parameters to defaults (fade times)
/trigger
Functions the same way as /scoreboard players set or /scoreboard players add, but can only modify objectives with the trigger criteria (referred to as "triggers") and can only modify the score of the player running the command
Allows non-op players to use clickEvents as well as prevent spamming clickEvents
Can be used by non-operator players
For a player to run this command, the trigger must be enabled for that player
/scoreboard players enable <player> <trigger> will enable the specified player to use the specified trigger objective
Trigger availability is stored per player, per trigger
One trigger may be disabled for a player, but that player can use a different trigger
One player may be unable to use a trigger, but another player can use the same trigger
Disabled after the trigger has been used (must be re-enabled to use the trigger again)
Mostly for use with /tellraw
Usage: /trigger <objective> <add:set> <value>
/worldborder
/worldborder <set,add,center,damage,warning,get>
/worldborder set <sizeInBlocks> <timeInSeconds>
Used to set size of border. The first argument sets the size of the border and the second sets the speed of the border to expand or shrink
/worldborder add <sizeInBlocks> <timeInSeconds>
Adds blocks to the current size of the world border. Can use negative (-) numbers to subtract the size of the border
/worldborder center <x> <z>
Sets the center of where the border will be placed.
/worldborder damage <buffer|amount>
Allows you to customise the amount of damage taken while outside the border, and buffer, the higher value, the further you can be outside the border without taking damage
/worldborder warning <time|distance>
Allows you to customise how far you have to be or the time for how long it takes to activate the world border warning
/worldborder get
Tells the player running the command the current width of the world border
Gamerules
logAdminCommands
Prevents command block output from being stored in chat logs. In multiplayer, also prevents player-initiated commands from being stored. Unrelated to commandBlockOutput, which is output into the visible chat
randomTickSpeed [value]
Controls how often a random tick occurs; random ticks influence how fast plants and crops grow, how fast pigmen spawn from portals, how fast farmland updates, how fast grass and mycelium grow and decay, etc...
If set to 0, random ticks never occur
reducedDebugInfo
Gamerule to enable/disable reduced information on the F3 debug screen
Op-only unlike the 'reduced debug info' toggle in multiplayer settings
Overrides 'reduced debug info' settings in clients
sendCommandFeedback
If set to false, player-run commands will not show a success message
showDeathMessages
Prevents death messages like "[player] fell out the world" from appearing in the chat
The ability to create gamerule variables[2]
These are fake gamerules which don't actually affect your world, but can be used with /stats with the new QueryResults argument to update a scoreboard objective based on the value of that gamerule
Declare using /gamerule <newRuleName> <value>
Access using /gamerule <newRuleName>
Scoreboards
New objective criteria for team-specific kills, e.g.: teamkill.red, killedByTeam.blue
New objective criteria 'trigger
Acts like the dummy criteria
Can be interacted with using the /trigger command
Mostly for use with /tellraw
The ability to iterate over every scoreboard player with *
This will also affect people who have not yet joined the world
Fake players with a name starting with # will never show up on the sidebar
New /scoreboard subcommands: /scoreboard reset, /scoreboard operation, /scoreboard test and /scoreboard enable
The reset subcommand can reset all objectives for a player or reset a player's objectives one by one
Example: /scoreboard players reset @a anObjective will reset the scores of an objective named anObjective for all players in the world
The operation subcommand can apply arithmetic operation to scores (+ – * / % < > =) and accumulate player scores
Example: /scoreboard players operation #teamscores redScore += @a[team=red] blueKills adds every red player's count of kills on blue to the red team's score of kills
Can be tested with a comparator to see if two scores are greater than, smaller than or equal to each other
The test subcommand can be used to test if a scoreboard value is between a min and a max value
Example: /scoreboard players test #global anObjective 12 19 checks whether the global score of the given objective is between 12 and 19, inclusive
The enable subcommand can be used to enable a trigger objective
Example: /scoreboard players enable aTrigger enables a trigger named aTrigger
Different teams can now have different objectives displayed in the sidebar
Example: /scoreboard objectives setdisplay sidebar.team.yellow anotherObjective (referring to team color, not team name)
Testing for scores now also works in @e entity selector
Added scoreboard team property to disable name tag visibility: /scoreboard teams option <name> nametagVisibility with options hideForOtherTeam, hideForOwnTeam, never and always (default)
Added scoreboard team property to disable death messages: /scoreboard teams option <name> deathMessageVisibility with options never, hideForOtherTeams, hideForOwnTeam and always (default)
Command /scoreboard players can now filter by NBT data
NBT Tags
BlockEntityTag
BlockItem instances can now hold a custom NBT tag that is merged into a block entity when it’s placed
Example: /give @p command_block 1 0 {BlockEntityTag:{Command:"/setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:diamond_block"}} will give a command block that, when placed, will automatically have the command /setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:diamond_block set
CanDestroy
Mostly for use in adventure mode
Items with this tag display the names of the blocks that they can destroy in the item tooltip
Example: /give @p minecraft:diamond_shovel 1 0 {CanDestroy:["minecraft:sand","minecraft:grass"]} to give a diamond shovel that can break grass and sand
Putting an invalid item name in will display as "missingno" under the "Can Break" list.
CanPlaceOn
Allows placing of certain blocks against other blocks in adventure mode
Example: /give @p minecraft:stone 16 0 {CanPlaceOn:["minecraft:diamond_block"]} to give a block of stone that can only be placed on diamond blocks
Putting an invalid item name in will display as "missingno" under the "Can be placed on" list.
CommandStats
Allows a command block or sign to increase a certain score in the scoreboard when it runs successfully
The command will increase the score based on the number of items/blocks/entities/successes
For example, a command block with this tag running a command which affects items (e.g. /give) will cause it to update the score based on the number of items given
Usage: {CommandStats:{AffectedItemsName:"playername", AffectedItemsObjective:"objective", AffectedBlocksName:"playername", AffectedBlocksObjective:"objective", AffectedEntitiesName:"playername", AffectedEntitiesObjective:"objective", SuccessCountName:"playername", SuccessCountObjective:"objective"}}
generation
Defines whether a written book is an "Original" a "Copy of Original" or a "Copy of a copy"
HideFlags
Allows hiding of certain parts of the tooltip
Bit field determining which parts of the tooltip to hide on an item. 1 for ench, 2 for AttributeModifiers, 4 for Unbreakable, 8 for CanDestroy, 16 for CanPlaceOn, and 32 for various other information (including potion effects, StoredEnchantments, written book generation and author, Explosion, and Fireworks).
Examples: Setting bit field to 3 would hide both ench and AttributeModifiers tags, and setting to 63 would hide everything.
Lock
A way to lock containers from being opened using NBT tags
Mostly useful for adventure maps in adventure mode
Containers can be unlocked by clearing their string for Lock
Locked containers can only be opened while holding anything renamed to the given string, item is not removed on use[3]
The lock can be completely removed utilizing the command /blockdata
NoAI
Disables an entity's AI
Entities without AI do not attack players or move or rotate on their own, and do not despawn, they also do not respond to gravity or collision with other mobs, but can still take damage, die, and ride other entities
PickupDelay
The number of ticks before an item entity can be picked up.
Set to 32767 for items that can't be picked up
rewardExp
Controls villagers giving xp for trading, set to 1 or 0
SelectedItem
Contains the item data of the item currently held in the player's hand
Added to compact the process of testing if a player is holding a specific item
Previous method required nine commands in command blocks; now requires only one command
ShowParticles
Option to show or hide all particles for a potion effect, while the Ambient tag only shows fewer particles, set to 1 to show, 0 to hide
Silent
Determines whether sound is produced by an entity, such as idle and hurt sounds, setting to 1 disables sound
World Generation[edit]
Underground
Granite, andesite and diorite generate in pockets within stone terrain
Slightly larger size and abundance than gravel
Pockets don't reduce ore frequency, since ores can generate inside these pockets
Ocean monuments
New underwater generated structure made out of Prismarine, Prismarine Bricks, Dark Prismarine and Sea Lanterns
8 gold blocks can be found at the center of the monument
A flashing boss Guardian will appear on screen when close to an Elder Guardian, and Mining Fatigue III will be inflicted on the player for 5 minutes
Will also generate in old worlds
Customized world type
Highly customisable terrain generation
To use, press create new world then ‘world type: customized’ and then press the 'customize' button
There are 4 pages to customize the world
Page 1: customizes generation of structures, chance of lake generation, size of certain structures, and biome type and size, and sea level
There are 18 customization options which affect whether generated structures will spawn in, as well as other environmental factors such as sea level. Some of these presets are Yes/No inputs or sliders.
Sea level height, toggles for cave, village, temple, ocean monument, dungeon, water lake, lava lake, stronghold, mineshaft and ravine generation, sliders to control water lake, lava lake and dungeon rarity, toggle to turn oceans into lava oceans, biome selection, biome and river size sliders
Page 2: customizes the ore distribution for dirt, gravel, granite, diorite, andesite, coal, iron, gold, redstone, diamond and lapis
Rarity, height range and vein size
Page 3 & 4: Expert customization of the terrain generation
There are 16 customization options which can be used to affect various aspects of Minecraft's terrain generator. These can be changed by moving sliders or by typing in values directly
Main Noise Scale X/Y/Z to smooth out terrain, larger values for smoother terrain; Biome scale/depth weight and Biome scale/depth offset to stretch/squash terrain vertically based on the biomes default height settings; Upper/lower limit scale to make terrain more solid/riddled with holes, depending on how close the values are to each other; Height Stretch to pull terrain upward, with smaller values causing more extreme stretching; Height scale, Coordinate scale, Depth base size, Depth noise exponent, Depth noise scale
There are seven presets
Water World, Isle Land, Caver's Delight, Mountain Madness, Drought, Caves of Chaos, Good Luck
Each page has a button to randomize the various values and a button to reset to default values
Uses the 'generator-settings' string known from superflat presets for server.properties and world data
Generate structures button disappears when selected
Debug Mode world type
Useful for resource pack makers
Hold ⇧ Shift and cycle through "World Type" to select it
Tweaked world creation
Other world options are not available
Only Spectator mode can be enabled
All possible blocks with all possible data values are generated
This includes all possible states of redstone wire, fire, tripwire, stairs, etc.
They are arranged in a grid across height y=70, with a barrier floor at y=60
Every block state generates only once
Blocks placed are deleted, and blocks destroyed are restored

All worlds with grassless dirt blocks will seamlessly change over to coarse dirt as it uses the same block ID and data value as the original grassless dirt block
Slightly darker texture than regular dirt
Can be picked up with bare hands (silk touch is not required)
Tilling coarse dirt with a hoe will turn it to regular dirt
Crafting recipe: dirt and gravel in a 2x2 checkered pattern, yields four coarse dirt

Walking on it is slower than walking on soul sand, close to one's speed whilst sneaking
Crafting recipe: 9 slime balls
Can be crafted back into 9 slime balls
The placing/breaking sounds use hurt sounds of slimes
Connected to sticky pistons, slime blocks will now push and pull blocks beside them when moved by pistons
Connected to normal pistons, slime blocks will only push blocks, but not pull them
Coded by KaboPC and Panda4994[4][5]
Up to 12 slime blocks connected to a piston in any arrangement can be moved as long as the following conditions are met: blocks do not disrupt the chain, non-moveable blocks are not in the way or slime blocks are not attached to the piston itself
Follows all the rules that pistons follow, for example blocks which can normally be moved by pistons can be moved if attached to slime blocks
Allows for more contraptions, from new redstone clocks, moving devices, farming etc
Extending a piston with a slime block attached to it will propel entities (mobs, players, items, launched arrows etc) in the appropriate direction[6]
