Minecraft:Commands/fill

Fills all or parts of a region with a specific Minecraft:block.

Syntax

• Java Edition

fill <from> <to> <block> [outline|hollow|destroy|strict|replace|keep]

fill <from> <to> <block> replace <filter> [outline|hollow|destroy|strict]

• Bedrock Edition

fill <from: x y z> <to: x y z> <tileName: Block> <blockStates: block states> [oldBlockHandling: FillMode]

fill <from: x y z> <to: x y z> <tileName: Block> [oldBlockHandling: FillMode]

The fill command also has an optional alternate syntax for replace mode:

fill <from: x y z> <to: x y z> <tileName: Block> <blockStates: block states> replace [replaceTileName: Block] [replaceBlockStates: block states]

fill <from: x y z> <to: x y z> <tileName: Block> replace [replaceTileName: Block] [replaceBlockStates: block states]

Arguments

Template:El: Template:Argument and Template:Argument
Template:El: Template:Argument and Template:Argument

Specifies any two opposing corner blocks of the region to be filled (the "fill region").

Template:Arg desc

Block position is the coordinates of the point at the lower northwest corner of a block. Because of this, the lesser coordinates of each axis are on the region boundary, but the greater coordinates are one block from the boundary, and the block volume of the source region is (x_greater - x_lesser + 1) × (y_greater - y_lesser + 1) × (z_greater - z_lesser + 1). For example, 0 0 0 0 0 0 has a 1-block volume, and 0 0 0 1 1 1 and 1 1 1 0 0 0 both identify the same region with an 8-block volume.

Specifies the block to fill the region with.

Template:Arg desc

Template:El: Template:Argument

Specifies the Minecraft:block states to use for the block.

Template:Arg desc

Template:El: Template:Cd
Template:El: Template:Argument

Specifies the handling of the block changes. Must be one of the following:

• destroy - Replaces all blocks (including air) in the fill region with the specified block, dropping the existing blocks (including those that are unchanged) and block contents as entities as if they had been mined with an unenchanted diamond Minecraft:shovel or Minecraft:pickaxe. (Blocks that can be mined only with Minecraft:shears, such as Minecraft:vines, do not drop; neither do liquids.)
• hollow - Replaces only the blocks on the outer edge of the fill region with the specified block. Inner blocks are changed to air, dropping their contents as entities but not themselves. If the fill region has no inner blocks (because it is smaller than three blocks in at least one dimension), acts like replace.
• keep - Replaces only the air blocks in the fill region with the specified block.
• outline - Replaces only the blocks on the outer edge of the fill region with the specified block. Inner blocks are not affected. If the fill region has no inner blocks (because it is smaller than three blocks in at least one dimension), acts like replace.
• replace - Replaces all blocks (including air) in the fill region with the specified block, without dropping blocks or block contents as entities. Optionally, block ID and data values may be specified to limit which blocks are replaced.
• strict - Place blocks as-is without triggering block updates and shape updates.

If not specified, defaults to replace.

Specifies the ID of the blocks in the fill region to be replaced. If not specified, replaces all blocks in the fill region.

Template:El: Template:Argument

Specifies the Minecraft:block states to use for the block to be replaced.

• /fill ~-3 ~ ~-4 ~3 ~4 ~4 stone hollowTemplate:Only
• /fill ~-3 ~ ~-4 ~3 ~4 ~4 stone 0 hollowTemplate:Only
  • Creates a house-sized box around the command execution's location, replacing any blocks that would have been inside the box with air.
