Usage

Hitbox Entity

• An invisible entity with a hitbox.

• This is a server-side feature.

Commands

/raycast

• Performs a raycast from the player's perspective to detect a block.
• Usage:
  • /raycast <player> block <axis> [<max_distance>]
  • /raycast <player> ifblock <block> [<max_distance>]
• With block, returns the coordinate along the given axis (x, y, or z) of the block the player is looking at.
• With ifblock, returns 1 if the block the player is looking at matches the given block state.
• If no block is hit, the command fails.
• Returns the result or error if conditions are not met.
• Runs on the server side.

/compare

• Runs command on entities whose NBT values match a comparison source (another entity or storage).
• Usage:
  • /compare <target> <target-path> entity <compare-target> <compare-path> <command>
  • /compare <target> <target-path> storage <storage-id> <storage-path> <command>
• Runs on the server side.

/rename

• Renames the item you're holding in your main hand.
• Usage: /rename <text>
• Supports only plain text — no color codes or JSON components.

• Runs on the server side.

/activate

• Toggles interactable blocks at the specified position.
• Can activate command blocks.
• For levers, it flips the state (on/off).
• For buttons and pressure plates, it simulates pressing and automatically releases after 1 second.

• Converts blocks into entities.
• Usage: /convert <from> <to> (falling_block|block_display) [<nbt>]

• Checks if the current game tick matches the specified tick number.
• Usage: /iftick <tick>
• Succeeds only if the current tick count modulo <tick> is zero.
• Useful for timing functions to run periodically.
• Runs on the server side.

/distance

• Measures the straight-line (Euclidean) distance between two blocks or two entities.

• Usage:

  • /distance block <from> <to>
  • /distance entity <from> <to>

• Outputs the integer distance in chat.

• Returns the integer distance as the command result.

• Runs on the server side.

/rtp

• Teleports target entities to a random grid-aligned position within the specified cuboid area.
• Usage: /rtp <targets> <from> <to>
• Runs on the server side.

/coords

• Client-side command to save, list, remove, and copy named block positions.
• Positions are saved per world/server in a JSON file (saved_cords.json) inside your Minecraft folder.

  • /coords save <name> — saves your current player block position under <name>.
  • /coords list — lists all saved positions for the current world/server.
  • /coords remove <name> — deletes the saved position <name>.
  • /coords copy <name> — copies the saved coordinates <name> to your clipboard as x y z.
• Saved coordinates persist between Minecraft sessions.
• Runs on the client side.

/nearfill

• Fills a volume relative to the player’s position using an offset.
• Usage:
  • /nearfill <dx> <dy> <dz> <block> — fills the block at the offset from the player with <block>.
  • /nearfill <dx> <dy> <dz> <block> replace <replace> — replaces blocks.
