In this short tutorial we will generate custom sign elevators for you vanilla (or pretty much anything) minecraft worlds!
All we need is our Command Sign Generator think of a slick design. I just put \/ and /\ into my signs, next to a information where it is going as text. Note that you have to escape chars like this with a extra \ like \/\\ or \\\/.
The *magic* is the minecraft tp command which allows us relative teleportation to the sign!
My example teleports you 5 blocks up, so i put
tp @p ~ ~5 ~into the command field.
In a similiar fashion you can also teleport, lets say 6 blocks, down:
tp @p ~ ~-6 ~Putting all this information into the generator you get something like the following:
/give @p sign 1 0 {
BlockEntityTag: {
Text2: "{text:\"\\/\\\\\",color:\"gold\",bold:true}",
Text3: "{text:\"Elevator UP\",color:\"dark_aqua\",clickEvent:{action:\"run_command\",value:\"tp @p ~ ~5 ~\"}}"
},
display: {
Name: "Custom Sign"
}
}
And tada! we made a simple but perfectly fitting elevator for you minecraft!
