Using Animatronics: The Analog Way

Animatronics are normally controlled by a Computer. However, some people might not want to use another Computer, just to position it once. Others might not know how to use CC: Tweaked at all and can't use it because of this.

But the Animatronic can actually be used without a Computer.

Viewing Rotation

To take a look at the current pose of an Animatronic, simply run the following command in Minecraft: 

data get block <x> <y> <z>
The coordinates here represent where the Animatronic is standing.

Changing Rotation

To change the rotation of a body part, you can run a similar command in Minecraft: 

data modify block <x> <y> <z> <body_part> set value [<rot_x>, <rot_y>, <rot_z>]

  • Again, the coordinates here represent where the Animatronic is standing.
  • <body_part> is either "leftArmPose", "rightArmPose", "bodyPose" or "headPose".
  • [<rot_x>, <rot_y>, <rot_z>] is the new rotation of that body part.

After entering this command, you can see how the Animatronic applies that position.
