How to make an Abandoned House in Minecraft Bedrock Realms, that traps the victims with a few invisible mobs.
With a few extra tips.
In the first Abandoned House Trap tutorial 1 of 3, you’ll learn step by step how to create a hidden chest that clones its item contents to a chest located at another location.
In the first Abandoned House Trap video, SkyThrusters shows you how to create the cloned chest and trap. When the chest is opened, the player will be able to take any contents you have placed into the cloned chest, but when the chest is closed, all the fun and chaos begins.
Randy Dreammaker (aka SkyThrusters) recommends creating the chest as shown, but locating the chest that gets cloned to a hidden location. In the first tutorial video, its placed under the house, just because that makes it easier to understand how it works. But you can move that chest that is being cloned away from the house within the same chunk. (250 block radius) so that the main chest remains hidden and undisturbed.
The skill required to follow this video tutorial is: Beginner. This video demonstrates it in the Windows 10 version of Bedrock, PE, MCPE but can be reproduced in other versions of Bedrock like Android, Apple, Xbox, PlayStation, Amazon Kindle.
In the second tutorial 2 of 3, you’ll learn how to turn this amazing clone block command into a trap for your friends as a prank, capture thieves and annoy survival raids, by attaching additional Minecraft Command Codes to a clone chest trigger, that creates iron windows and doors to lock in your victim.
In the the Abandoned House Trap tutorial video 2, Randy Dreammaker shows you how to extend the circuit from the Cloned Chest, so that additional functions and events can occur. In video 2, we add an iron_door and Iron_Trapdoors to the house, to make the empty window and door frames become inescapable until we decide to let our victims go.
Unlike the video tutorial, where the command blocks and codes are all placed directly under the floor of the abandoned house. An advanced idea, is to create your command area in a different hidden location.
This would give you several advantages.
- Your command area is hidden and can not be destroyed. That way, if your victim is able to get under the house and destroy things, they will not be destroying all of your hard work and it will be easy to repair.
- Because this contraption is dependent on Redstone Blocks, you you do not have to create all the command blocks under the house. Instead, at the bottom of house, where the Redstone Wire drops down from the chest to the ground, you would place a single command block that sets a Redstone Block somewhere located in your hidden command area somewhere else. That RedStone block would then trigger all of the other commands that set up the windows and door and other events. You would place a new command block somewhere in your command area with a Set Block to Air and a Time in the Ticker box that would remove the Redstone Block used to power everything. You would want your Ticker time to be a few seconds after the command blocks shown in Tutorial Video 3, that ultimately reset everything.
- Having your command area located somewhere else than under the house, allows you all the room and space you need to run as many commands and events within the house that you desire. For example, in Tutorial 2 video we only place an Iron door and Trap_doors. But if you wanted to get super creative, you could make an entire ceiling appear (the video's Abandoned House Trap doesn't have a roof on it, or you could make all of the wood in the house turn to Iron Blocks or even Bedrock Blocks or Invisible Barrier Blocks. It would be a lot of work, fun to do, but you'll need a much larger command area than the one shown under the house. Similarly, in tutorial video 3, we add in a single invisible mob, but that mob requires a lot of command blocks to turn that mob invisible and give it a new weapon. Yet, to summon the mob it only takes a single command block. In a command area located in a different location, you could easily summon multiple mobs and even have them appear at different times until the house trap resets. But you can't do it in the command area shown in the tutorial videos, because there is no additional space to create a few extra single mob summoning blocks.
The skill required to follow this video tutorial is: Beginner. This video demonstrates it in the Windows 10 version of Bedrock, PE, MCPE and will work on other version of Bedrock like Android, Apple, Xbox, PlayStation, etc.
In the third tutorial 3 of 3, you’ll learn how to add an invisible mob with a golden axe that attacks the Abandoned House invader.
Randy Dreammaker again suggests locating your command area in a different location away from the house, that way you have all the space you need, to add in all the mobs you want. But just adding mobs is one benefit. If you have a larger command area, you can create new command blocks similar to those demonstrated in the Abandoned House Trap videos, that give your mob extra effects like increased health, so they don't die so fast, or you may want to give your invisible mob some armor so they are more difficult to defeat. Or you might just want to go into full war mode on your victim and give them effects that make them weaker while fighting your invisible mobs with the trap. But you'll need a bigger command area, because all of those features require more command blocks and triggers.
The skill required to follow this video tutorial is: Intermediate. This video demonstrates it in the Windows 10 version of Bedrock, PE, MCPE and will work on other version of Bedrock like Android, Apple, Xbox, PlayStation, etc.
