It is difficult to imagine a game in which the possibilities would be wider than in the "Meincraft." This sandbox, conquered the hearts of millions of people, still has a huge number of fans who every day continue to explore the worlds of the game and create incredible masterpieces. If you do not have enough of the game features provided by Meincraft, you can always install additional mods, plugins and updates to legally extend the range of functions of your character and the world itself. Only if you play on the network, always check which add-ons are allowed by the administration, as on one server something can be legal, and on the other - forbidden. But even if you do not have enough of this, you can turn to in-game resources, because the game has a command block - a special object that allows you to use the console with advanced features.
Why do we need a command block?
It's no secret that "Maynkraft" represents a huge number of various extracted blocks, from which it is possible to build and which can be destroyed. The team block, in turn, is a special gaming unit. It was created in order to execute console commands from both players and administrators. In the game itself, it can not be met - it can only be added by the administration, if the game is on the server, that is, over the network, or with the cheat code, if this is a single game, and your action will not affect anyone.
Announcement of the introduction of the block
It should be noted that the command block in the game did not appear immediately - it was introduced only in version 1.4, and before that, none of the players knew about it. This continued until the developers had not previously notified the players that a new element would appear in the new version of the game. Gradually, the web began to appear sketches of what eventually became known as the "command block". It was a variety of descriptions, feature sets and other interesting notes that created a good excitement around the introduction of new items into the game. Then, during one of the game shows, the main developer of Maincraft Notch confirmed the information that in version 1.4 there will be a block that will be closely connected with the commands of the console.
Appearance of the command block in the game
The developers did not deceive, and in version 1.4 a new block was introduced into the game. Naturally, the players immediately started testing it, checking the commands of the command block and enjoying the advantages that it gave. However, the developers did not stop there, and soon a small fix appeared that significantly expanded the syntax of the console commands for the block, which greatly facilitated its use. Naturally, the players also did not waste time, and on the Internet began to appear detailed descriptions and instructions on how to use the command block. In fact, there is nothing complicated in this, but all the same, novice players could not understand what was what, so a caring community tried to make everyone feel themselves as comfortable as possible with this innovation.
The Future of the Command Block
However, the history of the development of the command block did not end there either - the fact that it can be very difficult to obtain it is much more uncomfortable than many rare items of the Meinkraft universe. The team, whose teams have all learned by heart, remains unused by most players. Therefore, in the upcoming update is expected a very pleasant innovation - this unit can now be obtained from the distributor. If someone else does not know, the so-called "trunk" is called, which at random intervals gives out a random object. Thus, now the block for issuing commands can be obtained straight from the game. However, the question "How to make the command bloc?" Is now common. There is still no answer and, apparently, is not expected - such a block in the "Maincraft" can not be scripted, and this possibility is unlikely to appear in the future.
The basic commands of the console
Even now, there are people who still do not understand what the command block in Meincraft is for. And this is something that can not be learned from tutorials and various training articles - you need to try to use it yourself in the game universe, and then the understanding will quickly come itself. And first you should consider the simplest commands for the console, in order to have an idea of what it is all about. So, with the help of the console you can show what you are doing at the moment, and also send all kinds of messages to other players. These messages can be of three types: general, directed and private. General messages are sent to the chat and addressed to all players on the server. Directional have a specific addressee, but all other players can also see this message, and private ones are sent to a particular player, and only he can read such a message. Each message has its own code, which is activated by the console.
Advanced console features
The command block allows you to significantly expand the capabilities of the console line, giving access to more interesting commands. For example, you can kill a character with a single command - most often this applies to yourself, if you are in a place where you can not get out. The use of such a command on the server in relation to other players is considered cheating. Exceptionally for the command block there is, for example, a command that allows you to check the presence of a block at any point of coordinates. This is a very useful function, as it helps to check if there is something useful in any chest. And this is one of many useful commands that you can apply using this block.
Syntax extension
There is a slight difference between 1.4 and 1.4.2, which is the special syntax for the console. In the first version, a command block was introduced, but the console syntax was the same. This greatly hampered the work with the block, since I had to write a lot of text to perform the simplest command. In the second version, this drawback was eliminated, since the developers introduced a simplified system of console syntax, and now it is enough for players to print a pair of characters to run a particular command. On the Internet there is a detailed legend, where you can quickly learn all the necessary commands and simplified arguments for them.
Administer with the console
The command block made life much easier not only for players, but for operators with administrators, because they also had certain problems with the console. It was not always possible to crank this or that operation in time, because registering it in the console required a lot of time. With the advent of the command cube and the subsequent introduction of a simplified syntax for the command line, the administration was able to respond much more flexibly to those events that occur in the world of "Meincraft." And this had a positive effect on the level of server administration, which could not but please ordinary players who suffered from the imperfection of the console system of the game from time to time.
