Essential Minecraft Commands

Teleport Command

This command is used to teleport any player in the game to another place or to another player, if you used it wisely, whether you are alone or with your friends, it will help you throughout your journey.

Minecraft teleport command

To use it you have to open the chat section by typing T, then you have to type /tp, now, it is your choice whether you want to teleport yourself to any other player or any place :

  • Tp yourself to other player : /tp (the player you want to go to) – for example : /tp notgamergg – it will teleport you to that player if he is playing write now with you in your server. If he is not playing in your server you cannot go to him.
  • Tp yourself to any place : /tp (x) (y) (z) coordinates of the place where you want to go – for example : /tp 100 64 -200 – it will teleport you to the place with these coordinates.

Give Command

To use it first you have to select who you want to give the item, it could be you, other player playing with you or all of you if you have a team. Then just not what you want to give. Now you have to know some technical things :

Components

Target – the person you want to give the item:
  • @p = nearest player
  • @a = all players
  • @r = random player
  • @s = yourself
  • Or a specific player name
Item – the thing you want to give to the target:
  • minecraft:diamond_sword
  • minecraft:stone
  • minecraft:bow
  • minecraft:brown_wool
Amount – the amount of item you want to give:
  • 2
  • 20
  • 64
NBT – an enhanced entry such as enchantment or colour and name of nametag.
  • {Enchantments:[{id:”minecraft:sharpness”,lvl:5}]}
    • one enchantment
  • {Enchantments:[{id:”minecraft:power”,lvl:5},{id:”minecraft:infinity”,lvl:1}]} 1
    • two enchantments
  • {AttributeModifiers:[{AttributeName:”generic.max_health”,Name:”extra_health”,Amount:10,Operation:0,UUID:[I;1,2,3,4]}]} 1
    • It is applied mostly with potions and golden apples or any eating item

NBT’s are placed just after the the item – /give @a sword{Enchantments:[{id:”minecraft:sharpness”,lvl:5}]}

Arrangement

Now we have to place all components together and make a command – with this step we will learn the final mastering of give command :

  • Lets pick target – all players – so we will use – @a
  • lets pick item – bow – so we will use – minecraft:bow
  • lets pick a amount – 2 – so we will use – 2
  • No NBT for now.

Our final command – /give @a minecraft:bow 2

Advanced Commands In Minecraft

Advanced commands in Minecraft are used for more complex works that cannot be done manually. Players can benefit from these commands when they need to arrange a custom event or extinct a mob forever or for a small time.

Effect Command

Effects commands are used to give any special power to a player, it could be or your any friend any playing game. You can select any custom power such as strentgh or even slowness, thats why these commands can be used to add any custom attribute for any event. Way to write and example :

Way to write : /effect give (target) (effect) [seconds] [level] [hideParticles]

  • Example : /effect give @p speed 60 2
    • This will give the nearest player speed level II for 60 seconds.

Execute Command

Execute commands have their own system, with its use you can make make a whole new condition in game, like if the any player is standing on the diamond block teleport him to me or you can do a action through any player such as saying something in chat with anyone elses name – like you are player 1, you use it and and in the chat what you wrote shows by player 2’s name.

System

as <targets> → Runs the command as another entity.

at <targets> → Runs the command at another entity’s position.

positioned / rotated / facing / anchored → Change location, rotation, or anchor point.

in <dimension> → Run the command in a specific dimension (overworld, nether, end).

if / unless <condition> → Add conditions (like if block, if score, if entity, etc.).

store → Save the result of the command into a variable (scoreboard, block, bossbar, etc.).

run <command> → The final command that gets executed.

Way to write : /execute [as <targets>] [at <targets>] [positioned <pos>|as <entity>] [rotated <rot>|facing <pos>|facing entity <entity> <anchor>] [anchored <anchor>] [in <dimension>] [if|unless <condition>] [store <type> <storage>] run <command>

Example : /execute as @a at @s if block ~ ~-1 ~ minecraft:diamond_block run say I am on diamonds!

This will check, if that player is standing on the diamond block, and if it is true, it will say the message in chat.
