How do you clear all item drops in Minecraft?


I want to have something activated by an Item landing on a golden pressure plate, but It can only be activated once. Is there any command block command that clears all entities?


Question from user AHolasek at gaming.stackexchange.com.


Answer:

If you're trying to clear all item drops in the world, you can run:.


/kill @e[type=item].


which will kill all dropped items in the world. However, there are slightly better ways of doing this. Namely, only clear items within a radius of x blocks from the command block. This preserves drops elsewhere, but still clears the first item:.


/kill @e[type=item,r=x].


Additionally, if you want to ensure that something can only be triggered once, place an input stabilizer on it:.


This device will "lock" the redstone state to ON, even after the item is removed. It cannot be re-triggered unless you manually break the redstone.


You can expand on this by only making it hold one pulse if so needed.
