Turn Any Schematic into a 3D Hologram Built by Autonomous Drone Swarms

SpigotMC Profile | Modrinth | BuiltByBit | Discord (IsadG#6424)

Ever wanted to bring your favorite WorldEdit schematics or internet builds into survival without breaking immersion, using admin commands, or spending weeks placing thousands of blocks by hand?

LivingBlueprints turns any building or structure into an interactive experience. Project complete 3D holograms directly into your world, link your storage chests, and watch a fleet of autonomous worker drones carry materials and construct your schematics block by block with realistic welding particles and sound effects!

The Ultimate Schematic & Build Automation Engine

• Drag & Drop Schematics: Simply drop any standard .schem file into your schematics folder and it instantly appears in the in-game catalog ready to project.
• Built-In World Scanner: Select any existing building in your world with the scanning tool and save it instantly as a ready-to-build blueprint.
• Export to File: Finished designing something amazing? Export your blueprints directly into standard schematic files to share with friends or use across servers.
• 100% Survival Friendly: Drones pull real items from your chests. If you run low on stone bricks or wood, the swarm pauses and tells you exactly what is missing.
• Claim & Protection Safe: Fully integrates with WorldGuard, GriefPrevention, and Towny. Players cannot project or construct inside protected land or other players' claims.
• Crash & Restart Proof: Server restarts, chunk unloads, or crashes? Your construction never resets. Progress and drone states resume automatically where they left off.

How It Works in 3 Easy Steps

1. Place Your Architecture Core: Place down a beacon core to open the blueprint catalog and select any schematic.
2. Align Your 3D Hologram: Use the intuitive calibration hotbar to move, raise/lower, rotate 90°, or mirror your structure until it fits your terrain.
3. Link Chests & Watch the Magic: Shift + Right-Click your supply chests, click Start, and let your automated drone swarm handle all the heavy building!
