Place a Template within a certain area

[Bumpay]

Hello there,

 

I have a template that should be placed in a certain area.

The area defines wheter the template should be rotated and on which side of the area it should be placed.

 

Is there an easy method to do that?

Right now I am trying to play around with the addBlocksToWorld() function, but it is hard to get the right BlockPos where to place the template since it could also be rotated.

Well if you're using the Template class, you can specify the placement settings to include how to rotate the structure when placing. If you're doing the calculation manually, you will need to use some sort of rotational matrix on the entire structure and on each block individually. Most likely, you will do both of those steps at the same time so that it is efficient.

Thanks, can you tell me which settings there are for the Template class?

You can take a look inside PlacementSettings and see for yourself.

So I already do rotate the Template via PlacementSettings. The problem is, it rotates the Template around the corner. Can I somehow set it to rotate around center?

Offset the center such that the rotation is within the template itself maybe?
