The command to pass through blocks in Minecraft, specifically when using the WorldEdit mod or plugin, is //thru. This command allows you to move straight forward through any blocks until you hit air or another solid surface that stops you.
This functionality is not available in vanilla Minecraft. It requires the installation and use of a third-party modification like WorldEdit.
Understanding the //thru Command
The //thru command is a powerful tool within WorldEdit designed for quickly navigating enclosed spaces or structures. Instead of breaking or placing blocks to move through walls or ceilings, you can simply use this command to instantly phase through them.
- Functionality: Allows instant passage through solid blocks.
- Purpose: Facilitates quick navigation during building or editing processes.
- Requirement: Part of the WorldEdit mod/plugin.
As stated in the reference: /thru. A command in world edit which lets you go through blocks.
How to Use
To use the command, you typically just need to type it into the chat console while in-game, provided you have the necessary permissions and WorldEdit is installed.
- Open the chat in Minecraft (usually by pressing
T). - Type
//thru. - Press
Enter.
You will be teleported a short distance through the blocks directly in front of you until an open space is found.
Important Considerations
- WorldEdit Dependency: This command only works if the WorldEdit mod (for singleplayer) or plugin (for multiplayer servers) is installed and active.
- Permissions: On multiplayer servers, you will likely need specific permissions granted by the server administrator to use WorldEdit commands, including
//thru. - Not Vanilla: This is not a standard feature included in the base Minecraft game.
Here is a summary of the command:
| Command | Function | Requires |
|---|---|---|
//thru |
Pass through blocks | WorldEdit |
Using //thru can significantly speed up large building projects or map exploration within creative modes where WorldEdit is often utilized.
