How to Use the Tm Command in Minecraft
This Minecraft tutorial explains how to use the /tm command with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.
You can use the /tm command to send a private message to all of the players on your team (see also /teammsg command). Let's explore how to use this cheat (game command).

How to Enter the Command
1. Open the Chat Window
The easiest way to run a command in Minecraft is within the chat window. The game control to open the chat window depends on the version of Minecraft:
- For Java Edition (PC/Mac), press the T key to open the chat window.
2. Type the Command
In this example, we will send a private message to our team with the following command:
/tm Guard the base!
Type the command in the chat window. As you are typing, you will see the command appear in the lower left corner of the game window. Press the Enter key to run the command.
Once the cheat has been entered, the private message will be displayed in the Chat window of the team members that the player (who ran the command) belongs to.
In this example, we will see the message "-> [TeamRed] <DigMinecraft> Guard the base!" appear in the lower left corner of the game window. This tells us that the team message was sent to all players on the team called TeamRed, DigMinecraft was the player who sent the team message, and the message itself was "Guard the base!".
Congratulations, you just learned how to use the /tm command in Minecraft!
