Hey everybody, it’s Under My Cap, and welcome back to another video. Today, I’m going to be showing you how to use the slash fill command. I’m going to go through all five of the fill types and also show you how you can fill areas very simply. I’ve got a really cool thing to show you as well, which will make it much easier to figure out where you want to fill an area. I know in the past I’ve struggled with that many times, but it’s really cool. Also, don’t forget to leave a like and subscribe to the channel if you’re new. I can’t wait to get into this, so let’s type in slash fill. If we go to slash fill, you’ll notice that these titles pop up, and this is simply asking where we want to fill an area. As you can see, if I do this, do another three, and then let’s just add a few numbers here. Let’s say I did three, three, and five. Now, I want to add a block as well. So if I want grass block, you’ll see that it’s filled an area here. This is probably one of the basic commands that you can do. As you can see, it has filled this area, and you can also see that because I specified a different height in the command right here, the height is also different here. Now that’s a basic command. Let’s get straight into the other commands. Let’s say you want to fill this area. I have two little blocks to indicate that I want that to be the top end and that to be the bottom end. This is how you do it. I do the save method, which is basically just pointing your little plus icon at the block you want. Now, we also want to type in the slash fill command. So, slash fill, as you can see, the squiggly lines have been replaced with what we are looking at. It’s 234; you get it, it’s the coordinates. So if I do this, then I want to hit enter. The reason I hit enter is that I can actually go back into my command bar and click the up arrow. You can see that the command or my coordinates have shown up, which is really useful because I can point my little plus cursor at the block, then go back to my slash command and use the up arrow to navigate to the last coordinates. If I click space, you’ll also see that these coordinates pop up. I’m just going to go ahead and type glass, then hit enter. As you can see, the area we requested—from that white block which was there to the white block down here—has been filled successfully. This is really useful if you want to fill a specific area. Now let’s move on to the next part. I’m going to go into more depth about these next commands: destroy, hollow, keep, outline, and replace. Basically, the names say what they do. Destroy will destroy the blocks, hollow will hollow the area, keep will keep blocks, outline will outline, and replace will replace the blocks. Now, destroy and replace are basically the same, except you have to remember this: destroy will destroy the block and also drop the item. If it’s a block like glass, it won’t drop anything, but if you have something like stone, it will drop cobblestone or the item required. Let’s say I use destroy with dirt. As you can see, I’ve filled this whole area up. But if I decide to destroy it with a different block, like stone, you’ll see that it drops a whole bunch of items. Now, let’s move on to replace. Replace doesn’t drop blocks. If I do this, you’ll notice it will replace the whole area but won’t drop any of the dirt blocks or the stone blocks, sorry. The next command, hollow, will create a hollow area. If I hit enter, you’ll see that because I’m using Optifine, the glass has a different texture, but the actual area inside here is hollow. Now, an interesting thing about this command is that hollow has the exact same effect as outline. If I hit outline, you’ll see that the area I just broke is now fixed, and it is still a hollow area or an outlined area. Now, the last part of this command is the keep command. I’m going to place a whole bunch of blocks in here just to show you how this works. I’m putting blocks on the outside and everywhere in this area just to demonstrate. Now I’m going to change this to the keep command, and when I hit enter, you’ll notice that it replaced everything apart from the air area. It hasn’t replaced the actual physical blocks. So that’s basically it for this tutorial. I just covered the simple parts. If you want me to do a Bedrock tutorial, also comment in the description. Please note this will not work with Bedrock because the command line is a bit different. I don’t know why; I think it’s just because Minecraft is coded differently for Minecraft Bedrock.
