How To Get and Use Structure Void Blocks In Minecraft Java And Bedrock!

Hey everybody, it’s UnderMyCap and welcome back to another video! Today I’m going to be showing you how to get Structure Void blocks in both Minecraft Java and Bedrock Edition. Yes, they do work on both versions, so no matter which one you play on, I’ve got you covered!

What Is a Structure Void Block?

First, let’s take a look at Structure Voids on Java Edition. Structure Void blocks come from Structure Blocks and are used in place of air blocks. They essentially act as air blocks, meaning you can walk straight through them with no issues. You can even push mobs through them, just like they aren’t there at all!

The Cool Thing About Structure Voids — Water Control!

One of the really cool features of the Structure Void block is its ability to control water. Normally when you place water down it flows and spreads everywhere. However, when you surround every single side of a water block with Structure Voids, the water stays completely stationary and doesn’t move anywhere. This is incredibly useful for building because you can control exactly where water sits, making it perfect for adding small water decorations to your builds!

Structure Voids on Bedrock Edition

On Bedrock Edition, the Structure Void looks quite different compared to Java. On Bedrock it actually shows you where it is, so it acts a little like a Barrier block visually. It still functions the same way though, so everything mentioned above applies to Bedrock Edition as well!

How To Get the Structure Void Block

Now for the command you’ve all been waiting for! The great news is that this command works on both Java and Bedrock Edition. To get the Structure Void block, simply open your chat or command window and type the following command:

/give @s structure_void

This command will give the Structure Void block directly to yourself. It’s as simple as that!

What Are Structure Voids Used For?

Apart from their use in Structure Blocks and the water control trick shown above, those are the main known uses for Structure Void blocks in Minecraft. They are a niche but incredibly handy block to have in your building toolkit, especially when it comes to creating controlled water features in your builds.
