Description
Copy cuboid regions to files. Paste them back exactly where you mean to — anchored to your position.
Copy Paster is a Fabric client + server mod for survival and creative builders who want a fast, visual way to duplicate structures without leaving the game. Select a box in the world, name it in chat, then paste it later — position follows where you stand at copy time and paste time, so offsets stay intuitive.
- Interactive
/copy— click two corners; live wireframe preview while you aim - Paste ghost preview — cyan outline when blocks would be overwritten
- Undo —
/pasteundorestores the last paste (in-memory until restart) - Ukrainian (
uk_ua) — full UI strings alongside English - Configurable highlights —
config/copypaster.ymlor optional Mod Menu + Cloth Config
