Structure worlds
Sigma90 has discontinued his Ocean Monument project so I had an idea: Why don't we all share the worlds we found the structure in so if one of us discontinues one of our projects, another user can continue it? Or is there another way?


 * – Like, share the seed and coordinates? – Sealbudsman talk/contr 13:32, 3 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Wow, even I didn't think of that. That's perfect. Because you thought of the idea, you can start a list of the seeds and coords. | AndrewAB (talk) 13:37, 3 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Sure, the next time I work on this project I'll do that -- it might be me who does it first, it might be you, it might be a third person. – Sealbudsman talk/contr 20:19, 3 July 2016 (UTC)

Orientation
Hey all, can we agree on how to document orientable blocks? Here's what I've used (Taken from Igloo Structure): Chest = West -- Stairs = Flipped and facing Slab | AndrewAB (talk) 17:50, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

Here's one of my ideas. If you have 2 of the same blocks, you can distinguish between both using coords. A table (remove all for use):


 * In the End Ship page, I ended up just trying to use a verbal description. For instance:
 * The pillars are oriented front/back.
 * The stairs outside the ship are upside-down, facing the ship.
 * I think it might be a bit more intuitive than working with coordinates, though maybe it's just how I would build, and not everybody? – Sealbudsman talk/contr 21:18, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

End city
''"At the top of the End City, there is a gateway type of thing hanging in mid air and leading to nothing. What is it? Interesting fact: The End City is ~73 blocks tall!" -- User:AndrewAB

(moving this part of the discussion here from User talk: Anomie x)''
 * That gateway, I suppose it's open to interpretation, but I tend to think it's intended to look as if the flying ship is about to moor there, like a zeppelin on the top of the empire state building would have.
 * The end city is procedurally generated, each one has its own height.
 * As for reading the NBT file, I think you would need to

It may be possible to use a structure block to load those files, though you might want to thoroughly read the structure block page as to how. I couldn't be of any help there (just yet), it's new tech I haven't looked at. Good luck! – Sealbudsman talk/contr 17:41, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
 * 1) open it in a hex editor to read what numbers are represented in there,
 * 2) decipher what the numbers mean (we have pages on the wiki on NBT, for starters) and how they relate to the blocks layout
 * 3) hooray you've deciphered it.
 * 1) hooray you've deciphered it.

I'll just use the Structure Block. | AndrewAB (talk 17:45, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

Template for compacting and improving visualisation of blueprints
I created layered blueprint, which displays all the blueprint layers on top of one another, allowing the user to select which layer is displayed, with lower layers displayed partially transparent. –Majr ᐸ Talk Contribs 11:44, 17 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Very interesting. How about you make the lower layers shaded? | AndrewAB (talkAndrewAB.png 11:45, 17 July 2016 (UTC)


 * There's no way to apply styling to layers under the current one, only ones above (which is used to hide them). –Majr ᐸ Talk Contribs 12:13, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

Wow, Majr! Its better than I imagined! | AndrewAB (talk 12:25, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

Neather fortress
The page for the Neather Fortress is Lacking in info, with 3 of the 4 bridge designes, and the first terribly simplistic. also, the "living" half shud be a seprate turorial. I sudgust DanyBoi1986's vidio on the topic.
