How to Get a Command Block in Pocket Edition
Minecraft Pocket Edition, the mobile version of the popular sandbox game, offers players a vast world to explore and build in. One of the most powerful features available in this version is the command block. Command blocks allow players to execute commands, which can be used to create complex structures, automate processes, and much more. In this article, we will guide you through the steps to get a command block in Minecraft Pocket Edition.
Step 1: Update Your Minecraft Pocket Edition
Before you can start using command blocks, ensure that your Minecraft Pocket Edition is updated to the latest version. Command blocks were introduced in version 0.14.0, so make sure you have at least that version installed on your device. You can check for updates in the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.
Step 2: Craft a Command Block
To craft a command block, you will need to gather the following materials:
– 8 blocks of any type (wood, stone, etc.)
– A diamond
Open your inventory and select the crafting table. Place 8 blocks in a 3×3 grid and then place the diamond in the center. This will create 4 command blocks. You can craft as many as you need, but remember that you will need to have enough blocks and diamonds to do so.
Step 3: Place the Command Block
Once you have crafted the command blocks, you can place them in the world. To place a command block, simply select it in your inventory and tap on the ground where you want to place it. You can rotate the command block by tapping and holding it and then tapping on the desired side.
Step 4: Open the Command Block
After placing the command block, tap on it to open the command interface. The command interface is where you will enter the commands you want to execute. The interface will display a text box at the top, where you can type your commands.
Step 5: Enter a Command
Type a command into the text box and press Enter. For example, you can type “/setblock ~ ~ ~ stone” to replace the block you are standing on with stone. You can also use more complex commands to create structures, summon mobs, or perform other actions.
Step 6: Save and Close
After entering your command, tap the checkmark icon in the top-right corner to save the command and close the command interface. The command block will now execute the command you entered.
Conclusion
Congratulations! You have successfully obtained and used a command block in Minecraft Pocket Edition. Command blocks are a powerful tool that can help you create amazing things in your world. Experiment with different commands to see what you can create, and remember to keep your command blocks safe, as they can be easily destroyed by mobs or other players. Happy building!
