Examples & Notes

Examples

Correctly written command-skills

  Skills:
  - command{c="give <target.name> gold_ingot 20"} @trigger ~onInteract
  - command{c="minecraft:tp <target.name> <mob.uuid>"} @self ~onDamaged
  - command{c="say HELLO <target.name>";asTarget=true;asOp=true} @NearestPlayer{r=10}

Invalid command-skills

The below example(s) won’t work because certain symbols haven’t been substituted with message variables.

  Skills:
  - command{c="minecraft:summon Zombie ~ ~ ~ {NoAI:true,CustomName:"Summoned Zombie"}"}

In this specific case, the ~ symbol is a problem: while normally, in vanilla, it would just mean “the position of the one that is executing the command”, this is not possible with this specific setup, as it is the console that is executing the command, and as such there is no “position” that can be used. A way to fix this would have been to use the <caster.l.x>,<caster.l.y> and <caster.l.z> placeholders

Making a player execute a command

This example will execute the “say” commands for the player that interacted with the mob

ExampleMob:
  Type: ZOMBIE
  Skills:
  - command{c="say <target.name>";asTarget=true;asOp=true} @trigger ~onInteract
