A Guide To Command Blocks For Beginners
This is a guide to Command Blocks for beginners!
There will be no advanced content in this tutorial as it is for beginners!
Part 0: Obtaining Method
Obtaining command blocks is pretty simple however,
there is no crafting recipe and is useless in survival!
To get it simply type in the command
"/Give {Username-Here} minecraft:command_block
Part 1: How Does It Work?
Pretty simple stuff,
right click a Command Block and enter the command
you wish for it to do.
E.G.
If i typed /summon Pig ~ ~5 ~(pig must be written Pig not pig or PIG),
when the Command Block is powered a pig will spawn!
Part 2.1
A guide to the basics of /summon!
This is the layout of /summon,
/summon <Entity Name> [X] [Y] [Z] [Data Tag]
The data tag is pretty complicated so that won't be in-depth,
so first off, capitals matter when summoning,
/summon pig or /summon PIG simply just won't work,
you have to do /summon Pig for a pig to spawn!
Here are some of the names to summon entity's
Pig
Cow
EnderDragon
Pigman
FallingSand (Complicated)
EnderCrystal (Amazing)
Creeper
Zombie
Skeleton
WitherBoss
Etc.
This is the only part i will be talking about the
Data Tag
Well here is some of the things you can do with it,
{Invincible:1} Self explanitory,
{Riding:{id:Minecart}} Spawns the mob in a minecart!
{Riding:{id:item}} Spawns the mob riding a stone block!
If you want multiple data tags you must do
{FakeTagExample:1,TagEndExample}
That , is important!
Part 2.2
A basic guide to /me, /say and /tell.
I don't really know the use of these except map making
but i will cover them anyway!
Well they are pretty simple, normally typing /me will bring up
* {User who did /me} {What they typed after /me}
however with command blocks they have no username!
So it comes out * @ {text you set it to}!
/say works simlarly and if you do /say
Your username is written [UserName]
instead of <username>!
A command block gives us
[@] {Whatever you set it to after /say}!
Now last and slightly more confusing but not at all really,
/tell!
So first of /tell is basically the vanilla /msg on a server!
Now for /tell to work on a command block you must either write in the
to msg either
@p (Nearest Player)
@r (Random Player)
@a (All Players).
I will keep updating this blog until everything basic is covered!

I might have gotten that completely wrong but I'm pretty sure I was close.
/effect PLAYERNAME type duration amplifier
so I expected it to be the same in a data tag :P
