Fabric Mod Releases

This is a modification that is designed with survival mode in mind. Similar to how Structure blocks work but using JSON files, it is possible to save structures in both creative and survival or adventure mode. Once saved the player can place down their structure anywhere else in the world.

Modes

Survival Mode

When the player is in survival the structure will be removed when saved. Some items might drop that can't be saved, things like Shulker boxes, item frames, armour stands, paintings things like that. Beds are also one of the few blocks that can't be saved due to it being a multi-structure but I have made sure they drop instead for being fully removed.

Creative Mode

When the player is in survival the structure will be removed when saved. Some items might drop that can't be saved, things like Shulker boxes, item frames, armour stands, paintings things like that. Beds are also one of the few blocks that can't be saved due to it being a multi-structure but I have made sure they drop instead for being fully removed.

Game Rules

nsMaximumSchematicSize

This game rule is used to set the maximum structure size. The default value is set to 32 blocks, this value is for all axis directions. You can set this value from 1 to the maximum integer number. Setting the value below 1 might cause issues with the structure system.

nsUseSchematicBackups

Disabled by default, but when enabled every structure will be saved to a backup folder inside the player folder in the config with the date of the file creation. This can be used when files are named with the same name as a new file will be created and dated with the name.
