Why is this command not working properly?
I'm working on a one command creation, Magical Weapons, and I'm currently working on a weapon called Black-Hole-In-A-Box. The idea is when you right-click with it, it clears all the blocks in a 5x5x5 box around you. So, I have this command (in a command block):
/execute @p ~ ~ ~ fill ~5 ~5 ~5 minecraft:air
but when I run it, I get this error message:
Failed to execute fill ~5 ~5 ~5 minecraft:air
But I don't know why it's not working. It should. I've worked for hours on this and I've tried tons of variations. What is the proper command to fill a 5x5x5 box around me with air?
Best Answer
try the command /fill ~5 ~5 ~5 ~ ~ ~ air
