Hey guys,
I apologise in advance if this is a lot longer than it perhaps needs to be... I've been trying for about three days to do this, but I've restarted my adventure map, due to a few outdated things, and have used 3D textures etc. to make computers and doors this time. Now although I'm usually good at figuring out stuff like command blocks and stuff very much like commands for armour stands, I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to do this... I was to put many computers and other armour stand textures around the map, meaning I need to be able to teleport them individually, so that later in the map I don't mess everything up and tp every stand in the world to me, which is what's happening now. I've tried giving them custom names or just name=Computer1/2/3 etc. but nothing works. I think it has something to do with needing a scoreboard, but again this is something I've no idea how to work or use to my advantage. Secondly, comes the main confusion for me, making a sliding door and falling door smoothly with the stands. There is literally nothing on the internet that i can find, that shows or explains on how to do this. I'm unsure on how to merge blocks with the armour stand so that they work as normal, and how i can both rotate and slide these blocks to make a door. One being four by four, but the other being five by five as a big factory door. It'd help if commands to actually type are given to me, as like I say I'm a little 'rusty' with these things. If anyone can explain this to me, either on here, over skype, anything. I just need to figure this out because I'm struggling so much.
Thank you for any replies!
Ben.

Well it worked for the computers so thank you for that. However i'm still really confused about the door. I tried the command but it just summons a falling sand block? Which just falls like a falling sand block. meaning that it doesn't look smooth. The texture of the door is on sand and gravel as i was originally just going to use this, but i basically now want to know how to move armor stands vertical and horizontal smoothly through commands, while they're holding the 'door blocks' giving the appearance of a moving door. Thanks.
Right I'll try that soon then, I can't right now. But thank you so much for your help, I've just been so confused by all these new adons. And adjust the command in assuming you just mean the location of the sand blocks? Thanks again.
You can summon an ArmorStand with a CustomName:
The you can target a specific one (providing you only have one with that name):
For your door, you can use:
(you will need to adjust the motion tag for every block)
So, what you want to do here is, execute a command at all ArmorStands, to replace the blocks at the door with air and in the same tick, summon the FallingSand entities, with the specific motion tag.
There are other options, but they are probably much more complicated.
/summon ArmorStand X Y Z {CustomName:"PC1"}The you can target a specific one (providing you only have one with that name):
/tp @e[name=PC1] X Y ZFor your door, you can use:
/summon FallingSand ~ ~2 ~ {TileID:1,Time:1,Motion:[0:0.0d,1:0.3d,2:0d]}(you will need to adjust the motion tag for every block)

I could just do that, which i have done but the computer was just an example there is other things i need to use armor stands which i cannot change so i do need to know how to teleport them individually.
And like i said I've no idea when it comes to this, so i don't know how to add motion tags to blocks, or how I'd go about merging them with an armor stand to make them move sideways? Thanks for the reply though.

For your first problem, why don't you just remodel a block?
This would probably be a whole lot easier.
For the second, you can replace the blocks, when the door open with FallingSand and a motion tag, to make it look smooth.

sorry haha, so I've made an apple item, in the game, into a textured 3D computer, to display on a command desk in the adventure map. So obviously because it's an apple i cannot stand by itself, so I'm using an armor stand to display it. I understand how to position the arms and everything like that, but i want to teleport each armor stand to my player, or to a location individually. So i need to know how to do this.
My second issue, sees me creating a large door which, one, slides sideways (Like an automatic door in a shopping centre) and the other to move down into the ground. Both have to be smooth, and i'm assuming i need armor stands to do this smoothly and effectively. But I've no idea at all for this.
Sorry i was confusing xD.

Can you explain exactly what youre trying to do, I cant focus on this paragraph sorry.
