[[Using a command block which someone already placed and set up properly is easy: Just supply it with redstone power and see what happens. This will execute the commands once. To execute the commands again, turn the redstone power off and on again.

Changing the commands or breaking the command block is only possible in Creative Mode. Directly after placing, a command block does not have any commands and does nothing. Rightclick the command block (in Creative Mode!) to edit its commands. Refer to the help entry about server commands to understand how they work. Each line contains a single command, the commands will be executed from top to bottom. The commands DO NOT require a leading slash.

You can optionally use the following placeholders in your commands:
• “@nearest” is replaced by the name of the player nearest to the command block
• “@farthest” is replaced by the name of the player farthest away from the command block
• “@random” is replaced by the name of a random player currently connected]],
