Command blocks are powerful tools that execute server commands automatically through redstone activation. They're essential for creating adventure maps, mini-games, and custom gameplay mechanics, but remain disabled by default as a security measure.
Here's how to enable command blocks on your Minecraft server.
Activating Command Blocks
- Log into your GhostCap panel and stop your Minecraft server
- Navigate to the Files section
- Open the
server.propertiesfile and locateenable-command-block= - Change the value to
trueand save the file - Start your server to implement the changes
Important Permission Requirements
Only server operators can place, configure, and modify command blocks. Before using command blocks, ensure trusted players have OP status by entering op username in your server console. This restriction prevents unauthorized players from executing potentially harmful commands through command blocks.
Command blocks open up endless possibilities for custom server experiences, from automated events to complex game mechanics that respond to player actions.
