how do I trigger a /setblock command without a /testfor?
In my map, the player goes to sleep, then wakes up and finds the windows are changed from regular panes to red ones stained with blood. But if I do /testfor, it will trigger whenever the player passes by, so that is not useful in this circumstance. Is there a way to trigger a command block when you wake up?
Best Answer
You can still use testfor. Here's how it works - set up the device as you would with the testfor, but change the testfor to this command.
/testfor @a {Sleeping:1b}

Answer 2
You'll either have to trigger something with redstone or use the /testfor command.
I would recommend testing for the exact block the player stands on when they wake up, as well as the exact time Minecraft warps to when the player wakes up. Realistically that would only occur is if they sleep in the specified bed you want them to.
Another thing you could try is testing for whether the bed is occupied or not:
/testforblock <x> <y> <z> minecraft:bed -1 {occupied:true}
