Generate flat schematic from image #209

Open joex92 opened 4 years ago

Dear maruohon,

idk if it would be too much to ask or to even do it, but I believe it would be useful to be able to generate a flat schematic from an image, I know that there are websites that can give you a schematic or commands, but I'm asking from a normal user on a server, not an admin nor an owner, to be able to start building in survival mode... idk, maybe that would be a whole new mod? idk, just an idea...

Sincerely, Joe X

Image to schematic generation/conversion is already somewhere on the todo list.

This is something I have been poking at myself for the last few months. I was going to try making an external program to create the schematic file, but I was also thinking about doing this. If I start working on this, would pull requests be taken? (I know some teams won't if it isn't being focused on already)

Well I'm kind of really looking forward to figuring out and implementing it myself... so I would probably not pull in an entire system written by someone else.

For me a big factor of the continued motivation to work on the mods is that I have done them pretty much entirely myself, and I know exactly (or at least I'm supposed to know...) how everything works and is implemented. So I fear the more the projects would have parts done by other people the less I would feel motivated to work on them myself. I know this is not a good thing from the end user's perspective as it prohibits others from helping in any significant ways... but it is what it is I guess... (or I am how I am rather)

I'm following this thread because I'm hoping to work on a Discord bot that uses this functionality
