Mastering the Minecraft Kill Command: Eliminating Mobs with Ease
There are many reasons to eliminate mobs in Minecraft, and the /kill command offers the simplest method. However, this command requires specific syntax. This guide details how to use it effectively.
Prerequisites: Ensure your Minecraft world has cheats enabled. Instructions for enabling cheats are provided below.
Basic Kill Command:
The command /kill
by itself will only kill the player. To target mobs, you need to add selectors.
Killing All Mobs:
To eliminate all mobs (excluding the player):
/kill @e[type=!minecraft:player]
Here, @e
selects all entities, and [type=!minecraft:player]
excludes the player.
Targeting Specific Mobs:
To kill a specific mob type (e.g., chickens):
/kill @e[type=minecraft:chicken]
Specifying Distance:
To kill mobs within a certain radius:
- Java Edition:
/kill @e[distance=..15]
(kills mobs within 15 blocks) - Bedrock Edition:
/kill @e[r=10]
(kills mobs within a radius of 10 blocks)
To target a specific mob type within a radius:
- Java Edition:
/kill @e[distance=..15,type=minecraft:sheep]
(kills sheep within 15 blocks) - Bedrock Edition:
/kill @e[r=10,type=minecraft:sheep]
(kills sheep within a radius of 10 blocks)
The game will autocomplete commands, minimizing the need for memorization.
Important Selectors:
Understanding these selectors is crucial:
@p
: Nearest player@r
: Random player@a
: All players@e
: All entities@s
: Yourself
Enabling Cheats/Commands:
Commands won't function without cheats enabled. Here's how to activate them:
Java Edition:
- Enter your world.
- Press Esc.
- Select "Open to LAN."
- Toggle "Allow Commands" to "On."
Note: This needs to be repeated each time you open the world. Creating a world copy with cheats permanently enabled is recommended. To do this, recreate your world from the singleplayer menu, ensuring "Allow Commands" is set to "On" during the creation process.
Bedrock Edition:
- Locate your worlds.
- Select the world and click the pencil icon.
- In the settings menu, toggle "Cheats" to "On."
Minecraft is available on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile.
