Teleport Command to put students into groups of four
Recently I've been using Minecraft EE to have students work in one of four groups to process their notes from History by building in one of four quadrants that are surrounded by border blocks. Currently I have to go into each quadrant and individually teleport them to me while I'm in the quadrant. This is time consuming so I've been searching for a way to use a command block that students would approach that would send them to one of the four quadrants. For example, I want the first student that approaches the command block to be teleported to quadrant 1, the second student to be teleported to quadrant 2 and so on. Anyone have any suggestions on how to do this or do it differently?

Hey Matthew Henzie,
You can use the command blocks and link it to a redstone input (Buttons, Pressure Plates, etc.)
And place a sign above each button indicating which Quadrant is the student going to
Where when the student clicks on the button, they will be teleported to the respective Quadrant.
Make sure you have the option Show Coordinates on in the settings to know the coordinates of the quadrants in which the student will be teleported to.
You need to type the following command in the command block:/tp @p <x> <y> <z>
Where the values in the < > are the values you need to input on your own.
Do let me know if you have any other doubts/issues as such.

Hi CSK,
Thank you for your response. I am able to use a command block to teleport students, but I'm trying to figure out a way to have students be randomly teleported to one of the four quadrants. If I have 24 students, I want them equally distributed in the four quadrants. If I allow them to choose their own quadrant, then I might end up with 8 in one, 10 in another, and so on. Does that make sense? I'm looking at using chain blocks with conditions, but really don't know enough about them yet and was hoping someone could help out who knows more about this.

Hi Matthew Henzie - I asked my engineering team, and always up for a fun challenge, they came up with two ways to do this. Here are instructions on how to set this up with NPC commands.

Matthew Henzie I also have a world file to share with you, if you are OK with my sending an email through the support system I can get it to you that way.

Thank you, this is great. Yes, I would like to look at the world file as well. Sorry for how long it's taken me to respond.

No worries at all! I am going to open a support request so I can email you the file. Unfortunately we can't attach them to these posts.
