What you need

Before placing the blocks

  • 1 Command Block
  • Place the block at the center of the detection area
  • Keep the area loaded while the system is in use

Expected result

Test after setup

Players in the zone see “Safe zone” above the hotbar every 2 seconds; the message stops refreshing after they leave.

Configure one block at a time

Open the game and match these values

The copy button copies only Command Input. Choose every other value in the Command Block screen.
