Making a Build

Creating a schematic for Restructured is pretty straight forward:

1. Go into Minecraft Creative Mode and build the structure using Vanilla blocks and items.
2. Save the build using a tool like World Edit.

Building the Structure

For the best experience make sure you are facing SOUTH when laying out your structure. From this orientation you will be facing the “front” of the structure. If the structure is for village generation include a gravel path so it melds with the gravel roadways of the village.

For best portability between modpacks stick to the Vanilla Minecraft blocks and entities. Modded items can change internal ids between saved worlds which would render a schematic “corrupted”.

Avoid using expensive blocks, like gold and diamond. These blocks can and will impact gameplay to a large extent.

You can place entities in the build. Entities include mobs (zombies, chickens, cows, etc.) as well as objects (item frames, mine carts, etc.). Not all schematic capture tools will record these mobs into the schematic, but some will (such as WorldEdit).

Items can be placed in chests. Make sure that these items are vanilla because problems could arise with modded items.

There is no real cap to the size of a structure. Make sure that you check out the structure in a game world to make sure it “fits” reasonably well, especially if it is part of village generation.
