Minecraft – Trigger command blocks remotely

minecraft-commandsminecraft-java-edition

I am currently working on a minigame, and I am trying to remotely trigger command blocks. Is there any way to use a lever and a command block to activate another command block 4K blocks away? For example, pull the lever and the farther command block will summon an enderdragon?

Summon a redstone block beside the command block:

setblock X Y Z redstone_block

I checked that it works even if the chunk is not loaded.

You can figure out the coordinates by standing right beside the command block, pressing F3 and looking at "Block:"

May want to remove the redstone block afterwards so it can activate again later:

setblock X Y Z air

Minecraft – How do command blocks work

You can use them as you would use a regular command in chat.

Example:

/give [user] 1 2

This gives [user] two of item id 1 when the command block is activated with redstone.

/gamemode [user] [0, 1, 2]

This will change [user]'s gamemode to either 0 (Survival) 1 (Creative) or 2 (Adventure)

Note and Edit: Buttons S (Survival) C (Creative) and A (Adventure) work as well as SevenSidedDie has noted for /gamemode

Minecraft – Can command blocks teleport the a person closest to a set of coords instead of the command block itself

Yes, you can. It's pretty simple, use the following code:

/tp @p[x=0,y=0,z=0,r=0] *tp coordinates*

Where the values x, y, z define the center of the search (the player nearest to these coordinates would get teleported) and r defines the radius of the search. If you don't want to limit the radius omit r.

Do not use decimal values for the search center, this will not work.
