Hey everybody, it’s Under My Cap, and welcome back to another video! Today, I’m going to show you how to use the slash fill command in Minecraft Bedrock. So, without further ado, let’s get straight into this. Now, this command is quite simple to learn, and it’s really fun to use. It’s also very useful in a lot of scenarios. If you’ve ever wanted to build a massive cube or a hollow area, the fill command is the right command for you. I previously made a video on this for Java, so if you’d like to check that out, I’ll leave a link in the description and also in the info card that will pop up about now. So, what you want to do is go into your command line, which starts with a slash, and it gives you this little Bedrock interface. You want to type in “/fill”. After this, you need to define your area. I’m going to use squiggly lines because I don’t have a set area yet. You’ll want to type in another three squiggly lines. They’re called tildes, but I just do that anyway. Next, you want to specify whatever block you want to use. Before you hit enter, though, you want to tell your command what you want your size to be. Basically, it will fill from your current position, extending three blocks away in the x-direction, three blocks up in the y-direction, and three blocks away in the z-direction. If we hit enter, we will be inside the filled area, but it might kick us out. You’ll notice that it has created a 3 by 3 or a 4 by 4 area. The reason it does a 4 by 4 is that it fills three blocks in each direction, and then it adds another block around them, so be sure to take that into consideration. You can also change the coordinates to whatever you like. You can simply type “/setworldspawn” to see your coordinates up there. Then, you can type those into the command and hit enter to save. It’s a little complicated, but it’s probably the easiest way to do it. Now, let’s get into detail about the other five things you can do with this command. As you can see, it filled the area using the normal command, but if we go back into the command, we have a whole bunch of options available. These options allow us to fill areas in different ways. You can create hollow areas, or you can keep the blocks in the area that you filled. To use these options, you want to type in “1” or “replace.” First, let’s go over “destroy.” When I first typed it in, I accidentally misspelled it, but as you can see, it destroyed the blocks. If this wasn’t glass and was dirt, when I went back in and replaced it with another amount of dirt or anything else, you’d see that it creates a whole bunch of items because the “destroy” command keeps the items and drops them. The “replace” command works like “destroy,” but it doesn’t drop the items. For instance, if I go back in and type “replace” and replace it with stone, it simply replaces the block without destroying it. Next, we’ll go over “keep.” This is a very cool command. Let’s say I have an area with lots of blocks in it—I have a lot of coarse dirt, for example—and I want to fill the area but don’t want to remove the dirt. You can go back into your command and change “replace” to “keep,” and you’ll see that the blocks inside that area haven’t actually been broken. This command only replaces air, not physical blocks. The next command is “hollow.” As the name suggests, it creates a hollow area. If I type “hollow,” you’ll see that you can look inside, and it creates a hollow cube that you can fill with whatever you want. It’s really cool! Interestingly, there is also another command called “outline.” “Outline” effectively does the same thing as “hollow.” If I type “outline” and hit enter, you will see that it creates the same structure. They serve the same purpose but are two separate commands. That’s basically it! If you enjoyed this video, please leave a like, and don’t forget to subscribe if you are new.
