AutoBuild

AutoBuild is a Fabric mod for loading, previewing, transforming, and automatically building Minecraft schematics.

Load a .schem or .litematic file, position the ghost preview exactly where you want it, choose a building mode, and let AutoBuild place the structure while you remain in control.

AutoBuild also connects to its own community platform, where you can discover schematics, share creations, create a builder profile, and load community builds directly into the mod.

Features

Load and Preview Schematics

  • Load .schem and .litematic files
  • Preview structures using transparent ghost blocks
  • Move previews in every direction
  • Raise and lower the preview
  • Rotate structures
  • Flip previews across the X or Z axis
  • Move the preview directly to your position

Flexible Building Modes

Choose how AutoBuild places your structure:

  • Per Block — Places a configurable number of blocks per tick
  • Per Layer — Builds the structure layer by layer
  • Instant — Places the complete structure immediately

You can also:

  • Pause, resume, stop, or unload a build
  • Keep or hide the preview after pausing or stopping
  • Enable or disable block-placement sounds
  • Undo recent building steps or the complete build history
  • Adjust the building speed

Survival-Friendly Building

AutoBuild is designed for Survival projects as well as Creative building.

  • Uses materials from your inventory
  • Shows all materials required for a structure
  • Reports which materials are missing
  • Can collect materials from nearby chests, trapped chests, and barrels
  • Includes a configurable container search radius
  • Offers an optional safety check to prevent replacing existing blocks
  • Allows Creative players to receive missing materials instantly

Community Schematic Library

AutoBuild connects directly to the AutoBuild community platform.

  • Browse public schematics
  • Link your website account to the mod
  • Load community builds directly in-game
  • Upload and publish your own schematics
  • Add screenshots, categories, and visibility settings
  • Create a public builder profile
  • Track downloads and AutoBuild loads
  • Discover builds shared by other creators

Find a build → Load it into AutoBuild → Position the preview → Start building

Export Your Own Schematics

Use the included Selection Tool to select two corners in your world and export the selected structure as a schematic.

Keep exported structures locally or publish them on your AutoBuild profile to share them through the community library.

In-Game Controls

AutoBuild includes configurable keybinds for:

  • Moving the preview left, right, forward, and backward
  • Raising and lowering the preview
  • Rotating the structure
  • Flipping across the X or Z axis
