Minecraft – How to make a large area air

minecraft-java-edition

How can I make a large section (around 100 blocks) into air, without having to create a command block to individually place //setblock air for each block. Thanks!

Use the /fill command. The syntax is:

fill <x1> <y1> <z1> <x2> <y2> <z2> <TileName> [dataValue] [oldBlockHandling] [dataTag]

The sets of coordinates should specify the two opposite corners of a cuboid selection.

For example, to fill from x=0, y=10, z=0 to x=30, y=20, z=30 with air:

/fill 0 10 0 30 20 30 air

have a 5*5 stone cube at spawn to clone to (assuming here you use 0 0 0 as the cube's coordinates)

/fill 0 0 0 4 4 4 stone                    // Fill temp area with stone
/clone x y z x2 y2 z2 0 0 0 filtered air   // clone all air blocks to temp area
/clone 0 0 0 4 4 4 x y z                   // clone temp area to destination

By the way, unless you have a mod changing this, the syntax for /setblock has no player selectors. You can, however, use /execute, along with [name=], to accomplish this:

/execute @p[r=10,name=<username>] ~ ~ ~ setblock ~ ~10 ~ minecraft:dirt
