by 🇬regon, with copy-paste code from WorldEdit
Litematica for Minetest is provided as a client-side mod only. For information about how to install client-side mods, see the wiki.
There is a texture pack at litematica_textures that will give you a default texture for nodes with no texture and provide the pos1 and pos2 textures from WorldEdit in case the server does not have that mod.
There is a mod branch of "dumpnodes" at Montandalar/dumpnodes/litematica that will allow you to make your own custom lua files that load node and texture names like the ones provided.
To be able to use Litematica on a server, the server settings (which also apply
to singleplayer) must allow client modding and must not limit the range on
getting nodes (do not set LOOKUP_NODES_LIMIT). If in doubt in singleplayer,
set your csm_restriction_flags setting to 0.
litematica_file: Unused. Would be used to load from a file, but file
input/output isn't possible for client-side mods.litematica_output: Stores the contents of a successful .litematica_save
command so it can be restored. If you want to load a WorldEdit schematic from a
file, and that file is too big for the Minetest chat window, then you will
have to paste it in this setting because Minetest client-side mods cannot
actually read from external files with the Lua I/O library like normal server
mods.The following two settings are provided for your customization. Texture lists are available for PandoraBox Server modpack and VoxeLibre. !!Using the settings will wipe out all the provided defaults!!
litematica_node_names: This is a JSON array of that lists the names of the
nodes that you want to be able to use with Litematica. This list unfortunately
has to be hardcoded because Minetest's client-side API doesn't have any way to
get the tile-textures of nodes, only ancillary info like inventory images and so
on. For every node name, there must be a single corresponding texture name in
litematica_texture_names.litematica_texture_names: This is a JSON array that represents the texture
names of all the nodes listed in litematica_node_names. There must be exactly
one texture per node, no more or fewer.The mod allows a local player to load WorldEdit format schematics and show the nodes as particles in the world as a guide for building. It is quite unstable and basic but it is at possible to save and restore your own builds for now.
The mod is used purely through chat commands, using the usual prefix . for
client-side commands.
.liteload: Loads the file specified, or load $ for the stored schematic in
litematica_output. Note: Loading files is though not to work yet..litepos1: Set position 1 for saving a schematic, which should be one corner
of the schematic..litepos2: Set position 2 for saving the schematic, which should be the
diagonally opposite corner to position 1..litesave: Save the nodes between position 1 and position 2 as a WorldEdit
schematic to the setting litematica_output, so it can be loaded again easily.Litematica for Minetest is licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3.
