<h1>🌟 ServerSideBuilds</h1> <p><strong>The Ultimate Server-Side Holographic Construction Zone Simulator for Paper &amp; Spigot Servers</strong></p> <p><strong>ServerSideBuilds</strong> is a 100% server-side, zero-dependency Minecraft plugin that transforms building from blueprints and schematics into an interactive survival gameplay mechanic.</p> <p>Unlike basic copy-paste tools or heavy schematic projection mods, ServerSideBuilds behaves as an active <strong>Construction Zone Simulator</strong>—providing builders with survival assistance (like Haste, Jump Boost, and Slow Falling) inside the active zone, managing block placements, tracking progress in real-time, and auto-switching materials from inventory.</p> <p>Because it renders holograms using native client-side <code>BlockDisplay</code> packets, <strong>Vanilla clients</strong>, <strong>Bedrock Edition / Console players</strong> (via Geyser), and Java players can instantly view, rotate, mirror, and construct complex projections <strong>without installing any local mods or resource packs!</strong></p> <hr /> <h2>✨ Features</h2> <ul> <li><strong>⚡ Active Build Aura (Survival Buffs):</strong> Standing inside your projected structure's boundaries grants custom builder status effects (like Haste for clearing blocks, Jump Boost for climbing walls, and Slow Falling to prevent rooftop fall deaths).</li> <li><strong>💠 Corner Boundary Indicators:</strong> The 8 corners of the active construction zone pulse with Cyan dust particles, clearly defining the boundaries of the hologram.</li> <li><strong>🎒 Auto-Material Switcher (Raytrace-First):</strong> Right-click any hologram block with an empty hand, and the plugin will search your inventory and instantly swap that material into your main hand with a chime. The new raytrace-first logic checks your direct line-of-sight first, letting you easily select blocks even when pointing through empty space!</li> <li><strong>🛠️ Interactive Build Mode (<code>/ssb buildmode</code>):</strong> Temporary hotbar tool interface that maps complex translation actions (Rotate, Mirror, Nudge, Layer, Paste, Fill) directly to hotbar clicks, complete with absolute protection against inventory loss (saves/restores on exit, reload, disconnect, and death).</li> <li><strong>📐 Advanced Mirroring &amp; 90° Rotations:</strong> Translate your structures on the fly. Vertical Y-Mirroring is fully supported, intelligently updating block states for slabs, stairs, trapdoors, dripstones, buttons, levers, and lanterns.</li> <li><strong>👁️ Dynamic Block Outlines &amp; Appearance:</strong> Configure whether unplaced blocks are rendered as standard blocks or tinted stained glass. Enable/disable glowing outlines and customize the glow color (RGB) in the config!</li> <li><strong>⚡ Async <code>.schem</code> &amp; <code>.litematic</code> Importers:</strong> Convert Sponge <code>.schem</code> and Litematica <code>.litematic</code> files asynchronously off the main thread, keeping your server's TPS perfectly smooth.</li> <li><strong>📦 Action Bar Progress Tracker:</strong> Watch your building progress in real-time with a custom progress bar: <code>ServerSideBuilds: 50% (50/100)</code>.</li> <li><strong>⚙️ Complete Administrative Access Control:</strong> Full per-command/per-feature permission node overrides and creative-mode requirements.</li> <li><strong>🔒 Highly Optimized &amp; Safe:</strong> Display entities are completely non-persistent, meaning zero chunk pollution or stranded entities after a crash or reload.</li> </ul> <hr /> <h2>🎮 Build Mode Hotbar Tools</h2> <p>Typing <code>/ssb buildmode</code> (or <code>/ssb bm</code>) swaps your current inventory with custom tools to manipulate your projection. <strong>Your real inventory is completely saved and restored when exiting build mode!</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Slot 1 (Compass) — Rotate 90°:</strong> Right-click to rotate the projection 90 degrees clockwise.</li> <li><strong>Slot 2 (Ender Eye) — Mirror X &amp; Y:</strong> Right-click to toggle Mirror X. Left-click to toggle Mirror Y (Vertical mirroring of stairs, slabs, buttons, etc.).</li> <li><strong>Slot 3 (Ender Pearl) — Mirror Z &amp; Reset:</strong> Right-click to toggle Mirror Z. Left-click to reset all mirrors.</li> <li><strong>Slot 4 (Arrow) — Nudge:</strong> Right-click to nudge the projection 1 block in the direction you are facing. Left-click to nudge upward.</li> <li><strong>Slot 5 (Feather) — Layer ▲:</strong> Right-click to step up one layer (Layer Mode).</li> <li><strong>Slot 6 (Brick) — Layer ▼:</strong> Right-click to step down one layer. Left-click to disable Layer Mode.</li> <li><strong>Slot 7 (Nether Star) — Paste All:</strong> Right-click to instantly place all remaining blocks of the blueprint into the world (Creative/OP feature).</li> <li><strong>Slot 8 (Hopper) — Fill:</strong> Right-click to automatically place matching blocks directly fr
