Minecraft – Blockdata Errors

minecraft-commandsminecraft-java-edition

I have a /blockdata command that I'm using the latest snapshot as a test, but something very confusing is happening. By standards, this command:

blockdata ~ ~1 ~ {Text1: "{ text:\"[Say Hi]\", \"color\":\"dark_blue\",\"clickEvent\":\"{ action:run_command, value:\"/say hi\" }\"}"}

Should work. However, any time I try to use a blockdata command, I get:

[00:00:00] An unknown error occurred while attempting to perform this command

Assuming you're playing 1.9, you must use proper JSON syntax, in that all key names and string values must be surrounded in quotes. You are missing quotes for the text key, the action key/value, and the value key. You also have a stray quotation marks surrounding the brackets for clickEvent.

Fixed command:

/blockdata ~ ~1 ~ {Text1:"{\"text\":\"[Say Hi]\",\"color\":\"dark_blue\",\"clickEvent\":{\"action\":\"run_command\",\"value\":\"/say hi\"}}"}

Minecraft Server save-all does not work as soon as expected

You should call save-off first, save-all afterwards. This makes sure the world gets completely saved, and no save will occur during the creation of you backup.

Minecraft execute tellraw’s clickEvent from original entity, not player

Do this for all of your armor stands. I believe this is the only way for it to work. It is going to be more command blocks, but I think its the only working one.

/execute @e[type=ArmorStand,name=(insertname)] ~ ~ ~ tellraw @a[score_goto=-1]
  {
    "selector": "@e[type=ArmorStand,r=1]",
    "clickEvent": {
      "action": "run_command",
      "value": "/tp @p @e[type=ArmorStand,name=(insertname)]"
    },
    "color":"blue"
  }
