What Do You Think Of The Command Changes Of 1.13?

Hello. It is me, Moldavite.

The recent update of Minecraft, 1.13, literally sent jolts of excitement in me and I was almost ready to play it, and see the new things that they have added, then make command block creations with them. I myself, LOVE command blocks and I am not saying that I am the greatest, but I am at least a decent CMD, and maybe even armorstand modeler. However, just when I finished exploring the update, I had some ideas in mind, and i want to test with the newest tridents. I gave myself a command block and wrote down some commands to teleport a trident near me. But when I activated it and threw the trident, it did not teleport whatsoever. It just went to outer space. I got a little confused and as i kept trying to change the commands, it did not work. After 30 mins of exhaustion and frustration, I gave up, and the jolts of excitement turned into utter dissapointment. I know Dinnerbone says its the for the best for (blah blah blah, i forgot) but somehow I kinda miss the old commands and how they worked.

With these command changes, I will have to relearn cmd. And you know what? I think the CMD team working at Wynncraft will have a hard time with 1.13 as all their commands and all their effort they put into cutscenes and whatnot will be all lost forever (until they do something) with this update. So I decided to make this post; What are your thoughts about the command changes? Are they good? Are they bad? I would love to hear your thoughts about the changes. Thank you for reading this.

(P.S; If you know me on the forums, I mostly build. But in reality, I actually do more CMD than building.)

 

I hate it.

 

When I go on 1.13

Me: Ok i wanna go to creative
Me: /gamemode 1
*Doesnt work*
Me: ffs /gamemode creative

Later

Me: Ok i wanna go quickly do a gamerule with tab
*You cant tab a command*
Me: Ffs i have to type it all

 

1.12.2
/execute Quintessee ~ ~ ~ say I want to die

boom

/execute run quintessential ?????????????????? and then I think I repeat more things just like that idk

in 1.12 its just like boom theres your command

in 1.13 its like 'feel it with your soul, feel the passive magic flow through you. weigh it in your heart. scream into the void if you do not know it. be one with the command. this is all just a very longwinded way of me saying I have no idea what the fuck to do with this shit and im not sure mojang does either later nerds *jumps out of window*'

________________________________

edit: for the /execute example its actually now /execute as Quintessee run say I want to die

 

if you think the new execute is shit, you clearly havent messed with it enough

________________________________

they fuck up everything made in the past
but at same time open the gates to a billion new things
the new execute is essentially an enhanced mashup of /execute and /testfor
like it or not, these changes were for the best
though i do agree some stuff was unnecessary, like /gamemode or /effect

 

im not saying its not good, not powerful or not useful or that its any less useful than it used to be. infact im thrilled about the new possibilities of the new commands, but my problem is with the syntax change i have to convert everything. i think itd be much better that for the new stuff they wanted they instead add it on to whats existing without fucking up everything previously made. im made at the fact they changed the existing stuff, not the stuff they added.

 

welcome to minecraft
fucking up adventure maps since 2011

 

yes I hate it

 

The commands are......ok

 

im angry now i cant do /gamemode 1 it tick me off

 

literally the only reason creative mode became unplayable

 

I find the command changes to be a bit too late, now that people have massive maps made that have to be completely changed to account for the tiniest changes in command syntax.

Also, my most hated scenarios:

/kill

ERROR - UNSPECIFIED TARGET

/effect @p minecraft:blindness 9999 255

ERROR - hahahahahahaha you won’t figure out what the errors is this time!

/give @p minecraft:diamond

ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR

 

I think it's literally the best thing they added to 1.13. The new execute is awesome, and all of the other good stuff like /data
Honestly now I'm making my maps exclusively with datapacks, and it's amazing! It became MUCH MORE user friendly than 1.12-!

I can't see why people hate it, besides the whole "adapt" thing.
About /gamemode 1, doing /gamemode creative is as fast, you just need to type /gamemode c and press tab

And now it's basically confirmed they won't overhaul shit again, so that's great, maps you make now may work in 1.19

 

Wynncraft is compatible with 1.8 (and above), so their old command block contraptions will still be useful.

 

I dont like it much but its doable
