Translations
We've changed our translation file format from key=value to json. This means we can support newlines! The new files look like this: {"thing": "Thing", "key": "Value", "some.translation": "Text Of Translation"}
We will pull in the latest translations from the crowdin project soon. Remember that you can help out by translating the game to your native language over there!
Command changes
/execute
- facing <x y z> will run the command as though you're facing x y z
- facing entity <entity> (eyes|feet) will run the command as though you're facing the entity's eyes or feet
- offset <x y z> has been renamed to positioned x y z
- positioned as <entity> will change the command position (x y z) but nothing else
- rotated as <entity> or rotated y x will run the command as though you're rotated in that direction
- in (overworld|the_end|the_nether) will run the command as though it's in that dimension
- at <entity> will change the dimension, position and rotation of the command to match that entity
- (if|unless) score <name> <objective> matches <range> will test for a score in a range (ie 1, 1..5)
- anchored (feet|eyes) will make the rest of this command use feet or eyes for ^ ^ ^ coordinates or facing commands
/teleport
- /teleport <entity> doesn't allow rotation or facing, will teleport you to the entity
- /teleport <x y z> doesn't allow rotation or facing, will teleport you to the position
- /teleport <victim> <entity> doesn't allow rotation or facing, will teleport victim to entity
- /teleport <victim> <x y z> [yRot xRot] will teleport you to that position with optional rotation
- /teleport <victim> <x y z> facing [xFacing yFacing zFacing] will teleport you to that position facing another position
- `/teleport <victim> <x y z> facing entity <entityFacing> feet|eyes
- Teleporting to an entity in another dimension is now totally allowed. Hurrah!
- You can also teleport to another dimension using something like /execute in the_nether run teleport 0 64 0
Local coordinates (^ ^ ^)
If you use a local coordinate in a command, it comes from your feet by default. That means that ^ ^ ^ is at the bottom center of your entity, and ^ ^ ^10 is where your feet are looking, 10 blocks forwards.
You can change this for a command by changing the "anchor point" in /execute, like this: /execute anchored eyes. For example, the following command will place particles 10 blocks forwards where every entity is looking, which for players is the same point where their mouse cursor is: /execute as @e at @s anchored eyes run particle minecraft:flame ^ ^ ^10 0 0 0 0 1
Want to know exactly what this command does? Let's take a look!
- /execute as @e makes the following run once for every entity
- at @s makes the following run at the location of the current entity
- anchored eyes makes ^ ^ ^ in the following command come from the entities eyes (which means exactly where they're looking)
- run particle minecraft:flame will spawn the minecraft:flame particle
- ^ ^ ^10 will make that particle appear 10 blocks forwards of the current position (which is the current entity's eyes)
- 0 0 0 means we don't want the particle to move around
- 0 1 means we want exactly 1 particle, with no speed
