Skylark Commands

Overview

Skylark adds new Minecraft commands for managing player teams and teleporting players to their team spawn. Like all Minecraft commands, a user must have Cheats enabled in order to use the Skylark commands. Additionally, most commands require operator (level 4) permissions in order for a player to execute the command.

Commands

Help

Skylark provides a rudimentary help system. Users can request an overview via the /skylark help command, and more detailed usage information for the commands via /skylark help teams and /skylark help teleport.

Team

Skylark's team commands allow inspection of Skylark's view of player team membership (including both scoreboard teams and Skylark's automatic teams for non-scoreboard-team players). It is also possible for the administrator to modify a team's default spawn point.

  • /skylark team list - List the teams, their default spawn point (operators only), and their currently-logged-in membership.
  • /skylark team list keys - The same listing as above, but teams and players are shown by the keys needed for configuration instead of by their display name.
  • /skylark team spawn <teamkey> <BlockPosition> - Change the spawn point of the team to a new position. The value of should be present in the output of /skylark team list keys.

Teleport

Skylark offers a convenience teleportation command for the server operator. Any subset of currently logged-in users that can be selected using an entity selector can be simultaneously teleported to their team's configured spawn point. Spawn features will be generated as required.

  • /skylark teleport spawn <PlayerSelector> - Immediately teleport all matched players to their team's default spawn point.

Minecraft Scoreboard Teams

Instead of implementing its own general-purpose team system, Skylark uses Minecraft's scoreboard teams to group players. The following commands are examples of common scoreboard team administration.

  • /team add <teamname> "<Team Display Name>" - Creates a new scoreboard team. Skylark commands will refer to this team as minecraft.team.<teamname> (the "team key") or <Team Display Name> (the "team name").
  • /team join <teamname> - Join yourself to the <teamname> team.
  • /team join <teamname> <PlayerName> - Join <PlayerName> to the <teamname> team (entity selectors can also be used).
  • /team list - List the current scoreboard teams.
  • /team modify <teamname> ... - Modify various scoreboard team options (not strictly relevant for Skylark).
