PvP Practice Bots

PvP Practice Bots are fully automated combat opponents designed to help you refine your PvP skills in Minecraft Bedrock Edition. These bots can engage in fights, heal themselves, and defend, allowing you to practice with various weapon styles such as Sword, Axe, or Mace. You can also customize your own AI without needing any programming experience.

Installation

Ensure that Beta APIs are enabled in your Minecraft settings, and that you are running the latest version of Minecraft Bedrock Edition. This is required for the add-on to function correctly.

How to Use

To spawn a bot, use the command:
/spawnbot <difficulty> <type> <target> <ignoredTag> <x> <y> <z> <customName>
All parameters are optional and will default if omitted.

Target options include:

• “” (blank) – targets the command sender
• “bot” – targets other bots
• “player” – targets non-bot players
• “mob” – targets non-player, non-bot entities
• “all” – targets the closest entity
• Partial player names are supported (e.g., entering “pets” targets a player named “petstorebuffet”)

Ignored tag options: Leave blank or use “none” to disable.

If too many bots are spawned, remove them all with:
/removebots

To inspect internal bot details, use:
/botdebug

Create your own custom bot AI with:
/botbuilder

Grant kits to players or bots using:
/kit <type> <target>

Adjust bot settings and enable enhanced AI features with:
/settings

Record your battles for review using these commands:
/record <recording name> <tick interval - optional>
/stoprec
/playback

Commands /spawnbot, /removebots, and /kit support command blocks.

Requirements / Compatibility

This add-on requires Minecraft Bedrock Edition with Beta APIs enabled and must be run on the latest available version for full compatibility.

Notes / Troubleshooting

To explore the details of each kit, rename the add-on file to a .zip archive, then navigate to BP/scripts/exports.js and review the kit configurations.

All custom bots include the tag CustomBot_botId, which can be used to target or automate actions on them.
