Control Blocks Command Blocks You Script
Command blocks are great, and it unlocks so many options, and allows you to make incredible creations, but sometimes, for big projects it either gets much more complicated or too long! That is where this mod comes in, it allows you to code scripts in game that can be triggered in multiple ways such as:
- Power with redstone;
- Powers each said tick;
- Power each said tick on powered with redstone;
You can make minigames, tools, and way more with only one block! With an easy language made just for this mod, with full documentation called Control Script.

ControlScript
ControlScript is a small scripting language written from scratch for this mod — no external libraries, no Lua runtime. Just a clean language that talks directly to Minecraft.
What the language supports
- Variables (
var x = 10) - Math (
+,-,*,/) - String concatenation (
..) - Conditionals (
if / elseif / else / end) - Comments (
--and--[[ ]])
Built-in Functions
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
log(message) | Sends a message to all players in chat |
run(command) | Runs a Minecraft command (op level 4) |
randint(min, max) | Random integer between min and max |
round(number) | Rounds to nearest integer |
abs(number) | Absolute value |
outpower(level) | Sets redstone output of the block (0–15) |
outpower(level, ticks) | Pulses redstone output for X ticks then drops to 0 |
inpower() | Reads the incoming redstone signal level (0–15) |
Quick Example
var player = "@p"
var roll = randint(1, 6)
log("You rolled a " .. roll)
run(give player minecraft:diamond roll)run() works with any mod's items and commands — not just vanilla.
