[MC-48806] "/particle" command does not accept tildes "~" for coordinates

I tried doing the following command
"/particle flame ~3 ~3 ~3 ~-3 ~-3 ~-3 1.0"
but it returns an error message:
"'~-3' is not a valid number"

xd yd and zd have to be absolute because you provide the box size.

Those aren't coordinates... they're distance parameters. They say how far away from the coordinates you set particles can be generated. So if you remove the tildas, it will generate particles in a 3*3*3 circle around those coordinates. And they can't be negative, either.
