These commands can be executed in the console of a running server, or they can be entered in the game by a user who has server administrator rights assigned (assigned by the command op). To launch the console in the game you need to press the “T” or “/” key. In the player console, all commands must begin with a "/" character. On the server, commands can be written without the “/” character.

In Minecraft since version 1.4.2 it is possible to write any console command to command block , which will allow you to perform it when receiving a redstone signal (via a redstone wire).

Minecraft, developed by the Swede Markus Person, also known to fans of the game as Notch, back in 2009, today has more than 46 million users and has firmly entered the ranking of the most popular games still at the beta testing stage. This game, in addition to the computer, is supported by gaming and mobile platforms. We invite you to join us short trip into the world of this universe and find out all the commands in Minecraft - what they are for players and administrators.

A little about the game

It is quite possible to talk about all the possibilities long time, while never repeating itself. And this is not at all surprising, given the endless amount of possibilities that this game provides. Even if you are part of that tiny percentage of people who have never played it, you still heard about it from friends or read about it on the Internet.


The graphics of the game are quite simple and look like a lot of square blocks of not the highest resolution. To an unbiased look, this has an undeniable advantage, because you don’t need to worry about compatibility with the video card or processor of your PC. Moreover, if you have a “slow-witted” one from the nineties lying around somewhere, then you can easily install Minecraft on it.



But among the disadvantages we can safely highlight the absolute impossibility of tearing ourselves away from it. Minecraft will completely absorb your attention. So be prepared for the fact that if you decide to just get acquainted with the game, you will find yourself so captivated that you won’t even notice the 4-5 hours that have flown by.


“What’s so exciting about it?” you ask. The answer is very simple and even somewhat banal. There is simply nothing in this world that could limit the user’s imagination or actions, as well as the movements of the selected character. Quite the opposite: when the game starts, you will find yourself in a randomly created world. And it is in it that the hero will need to survive and develop. All sorts of twists and turns await him, from hunger to protection from monsters.



Pretty soon the second level will open in front of you. And this is where the most interesting and exciting things begin, since you will have the opportunity to feel like a true creator, craftsman or brave discoverer. The world will be huge and multifaceted, both basic construction or crafting and extreme exploration of underground caves will be possible. Moreover, neither you nor your character, as mentioned above, are limited by any plot or given line of development of the game - there is absolute freedom of choice and there are no boundaries. To summarize, we can only say one thing: if you haven’t played Minecraft yet, you simply must test it!

Commands for the command block only

These commands cannot be executed in chat or in the server console, only in the command block.

Team Goals

The target is usually the player's nickname, but in 1.4.2 an expanded syntax was added. There are three main name substitutes:

  • @p matches the closest player;
  • @a - to all players (a list of all players will be received, and the command will be applied to each);
  • @r - to a random player.

The name placeholder can be expanded using arguments specified in square brackets (for example, @p). Arguments are listed separated by commas. Available arguments:

  • x - X coordinate of the search center;
  • y - Y coordinate of the search center;
  • z - Z coordinate of the search center;
  • r - maximum search radius;
  • rm - minimum search radius;
  • m - game mode;
  • l - maximum player level;
  • lm - minimum player level;
  • c is a special argument for @a: limiting the number of players the command will be applied to. For example, @a is the first 10 players from the list, @a is the last 12 players from the list.

There are special arguments for the game event counting system. score_name and score_name_min correspond to players with the maximum and minimum scores, respectively, where instead of name you need to substitute the name of the event. The team argument allows you to find players on a specific team, and the team=!teamName syntax matches players not on a given team. In this case, team= corresponds to all players without a team at all.
