00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.020
Hour of Code Minecraft | Events

00:00:05.020 --> 00:00:10.320
On this next level, you can pick to 
be either Steve or Alex.

00:00:10.320 --> 00:00:16.670
Press the arrow buttons on your keyboard to
move up, down, left, and right.

00:00:16.670 --> 00:00:20.890
Now you can move around a level wherever you
want.

00:00:20.890 --> 00:00:27.340
To use a creature, just walk towards it, turn
to face it, and press the spacebar.

00:00:27.340 --> 00:00:34.280
If you're using a touch screen, swipe up,
down, left, and right to move around.

00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:38.829
Then tap the game to use the item in front
of you.

00:00:38.829 --> 00:00:41.100
But what happens when you use it?

00:00:41.100 --> 00:00:46.851
In Minecraft, sheep drop wool when you shear
them, cows run away when you hit them, and

00:00:46.851 --> 00:00:51.219
creepers explode when you get near them.

00:00:51.219 --> 00:00:55.440
These reactions happen thanks to something
called events.

00:00:55.440 --> 00:01:00.010
Events tell your program to listen or wait
for when something happens.

00:01:00.010 --> 00:01:02.859
And when it does, perform an action.

00:01:02.859 --> 00:01:08.340
So far, you've used one event. Code you put
in the "when spawned" slot runs when your

00:01:08.340 --> 00:01:12.120
creature is created or when the game starts.

00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:17.780
Over the next few levels you'll have new slots
for events such as "when touched" that runs

00:01:17.780 --> 00:01:23.060
when you touch the creature, or "when used"
for when you use the creature.

00:01:23.060 --> 00:01:29.820
Or, if you want your zombie to disappear when
the sun comes up, put that in the "when day" slot
