This helped really much in my map creating ....thx

Will be uploading mechanics, including a Deployable Medic Kit, Laser-Tracking Hostile Turrets and a Kamikaze Donkey, sometime later in the month.

Thread updated with the following:

Deployable Medkit:

With the deployable medkit, you can place down a healing beacon for your teammates to heal at. It has a limited time span, and utilizes spawn eggs for the "deployability."

Before we begin, you'll need to set a scoreboard argument: /scoreboard objectives add BeaconTimer dummy BeaconTimer

This will enable use to make the medkit last only a limited time.

Start by placing down command blocks. The command block on the right is inside a minecart, and can be obtained by using /give @p command_block_minecart It is on top of an activator rail on a redstone block.

Depending on placement, you'll need to change the relative coordinates, but it is as follows:

Left side: /setblock ~1 ~ ~ air

Right side: /setblock ~-1 ~ ~ redstone_block

Next, we need to link it up to a warning message. It tells us that the beacon will soon disappear.

Bottom: /scoreboard players test BeaconTimer BeaconTimer 60 60

Top: /tellraw @a ["",{"text":"HealthBeacon is about to expire!","color":"red"}]

Next we need to setup the disappearing part of the beacon, and the actual healing mechanism.

Upper Command Block: /scoreboard players test BeaconTimer BeaconTimer 100 100

Lower Command Block (on right): /execute @e[type=Item,name=HealthBeacon] ~ ~ ~ effect @a[r=1] regeneration 5

Now, in order to aware people that the beacon has vanished, and to reset the system, we need 3 command blocks. Top: /tellraw @p ["",{"text":"HealthBeacon has expired!","color":"dark_red"}]

Middle: /scoreboard players set BeaconTimer BeaconTimer 0

Bottom: /kill @e[type=Item,name=HealthBeacon]

That's the first part done. The next part is setting up the Silverfish and Beacon spawning mechanism.

First, setup the mechanism the same way as last time:

Afterwards, we need to do this. One block makes the Silverfish invisible, and the other tests for a Silverfish. Attach a comparator to the "testfor" block. Top: /effect @e[type=Silverfish] invisibility 9999 2 true Bottom: /testfor @e[type=Silverfish] When the beacon spawns, we'll need to teleport it to the location of the Silverfish. Let's attach it to the main mechanism: Above Mechanism: /tp @e[type=Item,name=HealthBeacon] @e[type=Silverfish] The next section makes a clean beacon spawn, without any bugs or duplicates: Top: /summon Item ~ ~50 ~1 {CustomName:"HealthBeacon",CustomNameVisible:1,Item:{id:beacon,Count:1},Age:-32768,PickupDelay:32767} Bottom: /kill @e[type=Item,name=HealthBeacon] Left: /scoreboard players set BeaconTimer BeaconTimer 0

Also have a hole behind these blocks for any extra entities to fall through to the void:

Now we attach a comparator and add in a few basic commands: Top: /blockdata ~2 ~-1 ~ {SuccessCount:0} Middle: /kill @e[type=Silverfish] Bottom: /tellraw @a ["",{"text":"HealthBeacon deployed!","color":"dark_green"}]

Now, for the final section we use a different clock. It's a bit slower, and makes it easier to detect change. This part is easy. It is simply the timer for the Health Beacon. Left: /testfor @e[type=Item,name=HealthBeacon] Bottom: /scoreboard players add BeaconTimer BeaconTimer 1 Top: /blockdata ~ ~-1 ~-2 {SuccessCount:0}

AND FINALLY... Give yourself a deployable medkit! /give @p minecraft:spawn_egg 2 60 {display:{Name:Health Beacon,Lore:[Place this down for your teammates, so they can heal!]}}

Enjoy this wonderful new mechanism!

Laser-Tracking Turrets:

These turrets lock on with lasers and shoot you! Get behind them and shut them down! Using the Guardians lock-on ability and a pig with no AI, you can easily make a stationary turret.

I am a terrible builder, but build a turret and set it up like so (the dispenser can remain empty): Have your command blocks set up like this. Of course, you can move them underground and things like that, just be sure to change the coordinates. The exclamation mark is simply to show players that the turret is still online and working. Detection distance can be changed by altering {Name:generic.followRange,Base:30} - currently, this causes the turret to shoot at players 30 blocks away, and within sight. Damage dealt can also be altered by changing {Name:generic.attackDamage,Base:10} - this currently does 5 hearts of damage. Top: /summon Guardian ~ ~1 ~ {CustomName:"HellfireTurret",CustomNameVisible:1,Attributes:[{Name:generic.attackDamage,Base:10},{Name:generic.followRange,Base:30}],Invulnerable:1,PersistenceRequired:1,Silent:1,ActiveEffects:[{Id:14,Amplifier:2,Duration:1999980,ShowParticles:0b}],Riding:{id:"Pig",CustomName:"HellfireTurret",CustomNameVisible:1,Invulnerable:1,PersistenceRequired:1,NoAI:1,Silent:1,ActiveEffects:[{Id:14,Amplifier:2,Duration:1999980,ShowParticles:0b}]}} Bottom: /setblock ~ ~2 ~ minecraft:skull 2 replace {ExtraType:MHF_Exclamation,SkullType:3} The next part is the shutting down of the turret. Very simple. Left: /setblock ~1 ~3 ~-2 air Right: /kill @e[name=HellfireTurret,r=6]



That's all folks! Enjoy tormenting players with these difficult turrets!

Kamikaze Donkey:

Summon a donkey and blow it up with a detonator!

Firstly, let's give ourselves a simple book to summon a horse. Because books don't allow to have a long run_command line, you sometimes need to improvise. That's what we'll do: /give @p minecraft:written_book 1 0 {title:"Kamikaze Mule!",author:"",generation:0,pages:["{text:\"Kamikaze Mule\",color:green,bold:true,hoverEvent:{action:'show_text',value:\"Ride this mule to it's death!\"},clickEvent:{action:'run_command',value:\"/summon EntityHorse ~ ~1 ~ {Type:0,Variant:0}\"}}"]}

Next, let's set up a clock to change some of things on this horse. It'll need a saddle... Left: /setblock ~1 ~ ~ air Right: /setblock ~-1 ~ ~ redstone_block Top: /entitydata @e[type=EntityHorse] {Type:1,SaddleItem:{id:saddle},Tame:1,Attributes:[{Name:generic.maxHealth,Base:10},{Name:horse.jumpStrength,Base:0}]}

Now we have our mule, we'll need a detonator to blow it up with! /give @p minecraft:map 1 0 {display:{Name:Detonator,Lore:[Set off the explosives!]}} And for the mechanics: /clear @a filled_map 1) /effect @p absorption 5 6 Ensure player doesn't die/take too much damage 2) /give @a minecraft:map 1 0 {display:{Name:Detonator,Lore:[Set off the explosives!]}} Gives player back the detonator 3) /blockdata ~ ~-1 ~-2 {SuccessCount:0} Resets command block 4) /execute @e[type=EntityHorse] ~ ~ ~ summon Creeper ~ ~ ~ {ignited:1,ExplosionRadius:3,Fuse:0,NoAI:1} Summons Creeper that explodes instantly at mules location (upon use of detonator)

Enjoy this new, itty bitty, explosively fantastic mule!

xFeare_'s Book of Tactics:

Thanks folks!

EDIT: Formatting on this forum is still terrible, sorry for the mess. I can't really do anything about it.

Quote from Feare»

Simples.

Firstly, your summon command should look something like this:

/summon Pig ~ ~1 ~ {CustomName:"Fred"}

If you aren't using name, don't fret - just use all the dataTags you wish to use.

To detect the death, run a redstone loop on this:

/testfor @e[type=Pig] {CustomName:"Fred"}

Link up a comparator to an inverter and there you go. When the mob dies, comparator switches off and the pulse goes where you want it. Easy.

~Feare

thanks man I'm still working on a map and it's going great!

ok, i need some realtime help.

i was using the testfor command and set it to @p[r=3] thinking if i got within 3 blocks, it would set it off. i made a clock to constantly test it. then, i connected it to a command to teleport that player to a new set of coords VERY far away. i used myself as a test subject, and its still looping. its been 10 minutes and ive tried turning off commandblockoutput. what now??

First, let's just determine the problem so it doesn't happen again.

What you may have done is, rather than use a comparator to output player detection, you may have used a repeater, which will continuously output your tp command, hence why it won't stop looping.

To stop this, you'll need to use a third-party program and remove the command block running the /tp command.You should use MCEdit. Open your world in this program, find the block and simply delete it. Your problem will be fixed.

Now, rather than using two command blocks, you can simply use one. Run it on a clock with the command /tp @p[r=3] x y z . That will do the same thing, but with less trouble!

Also, commandblockOutput only turns off executed commands in chat. It doesn't stop command blocks from working.

In cloning i am working on an autu generated parkour map, is there a way when you are cloning it to twist it 180 degrees?

Unfortunately there is no way to rotate cloned structures.

Quote from Koekiemonster12»

I'm making a puzzle map. But i need to know, how to make clickable signs that output a command. I've seen this a lot by other maps. I hope you know it

- Koekiemonster12

Well, I'll give you a basic example for starters.

/setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:standing_sign 0 replace {Text1:"{text:\"Click Me!\",bold:true,clickEvent:{action:run_command,value:\"/say Hello World!\"}}"}

What this command does is place a sign 1 block above the command block. The sign says "Click Me!", and when you click it, it says "Hello World!" in the chat. The sign text will also be bold.

This can be a fairly indepth command, so I'd suggest using MCStacker to generate your /setblock signs. It'll help avoid errors, as well as save loads of time. This mechanism can be used for almost anything, so be creative

Quote from Koekiemonster12»

I can't find op MCStacker or Google etc. how to make a block (Cobblestone) send a command when you stand on it? Example: If i stand on cobblestone it need's to send the command : /clear

I hope you can help me again :s!


- Koekiemonster12

~EDIT~

I think this is possible.

On a clock, run the /execute command on /testforblock. You can execute the command at the player, and test if the block below the player is cobblestone.

/execute @p ~ ~ ~ testforblock ~ ~-1 ~ 0 cobblestone

Link that up to anything that suits your needs. A simple version would be just having a comparator that outputs to the /clear command, but if it's in multiplayer, you will probably need to fiddle around with scoreboard data to pick the right person.

Hey, sorry for bad english. But do you know a way to shuffle the inventory of a player with a command-block ?

What do you mean by shuffle? Put random items in the inventory or place the items in a players inventory in random order? Feare might need some more info

I have a question,how do you make the screen go black for a title or something like that? Can you tell me the command for making the screen go black?

Well I should leave this to Feare but if you add blindness with night vision and then run a title that should do it but Feare would have to give you the command.

How do I make a boss with command blocks?

Like I said before Feare runs the show and gives the commands but I could be helpful (:. So I don't know exactly how to do this but I do know that if you go on the internet and look up command generators (custom mob generators) and use those it could make a good mob but if you want a health bars (like the Ender dragon ) then I would ask.

Well, unless you know exactly what the player has in his inventory in exactly the right places, this is not possible.

Use the /summon command on MCStacker.

Whilst TheEpicMoney's suggestion doesn't quite work, it was a decent idea. Pixels, I'd suggest having the player tp to a coal-block box, so all four sides are black. Once there, play the titles. There isn't, unfortunately, a way to simply make the screen black.

Also, thankyou TheEpicMoney for your suggestions in helping these people!

~xFeare_

no problem I'm a redstone master in training and commands is one of my things I'm getting good at.

and one last thing to anyone who reads this: my name is the epic MONEY (: don't worry if you got it wrong EVERYONE gets it wrong. (And they all think my name is monkey)

Thanks! I'll include you in the credits of the map I'm working on!

I have another question. Usually, if you want to make a command block to teleport you, you type in the commands and give it some power through redstone.After powering it, it teleports you to whatever coordinates you put in the command.

After teleporting you, it says '@:teleported PixelsDeepak to x y z.'

How do I stop that sentence from showing up in the chat tab? I've seen a few maps do that. What gamerule do I have to add?
