Structurize guide for All the Mods 10 0.57 to 1.15

This pack ships Structurize at version 1.0.754-1.21.1-snapshot (file structurize-1.0.754-1.21.1-snapshot.jar). It has been in the pack since version 0.57 or earlier, so it's a long-standing part of the mod list rather than a recent addition.^[1]

Unverified The sources available for this guide don't describe what Structurize does, who it is aimed at, or any pack-specific recipe or config changes. They also don't show it on the ATM Star path or tied to any quests. Until that's confirmed, treat its role in the pack's progression as unknown.

Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide

Structurize gives you a set of tools for placing and scanning blueprints, plus a few placeholder blocks. Every item below has a crafting recipe in this pack, so you can start right away. Here is the order I'd go in.^[2]

Step one: the Build Tool

Start with the Build Tool. It's the tool the game refers to as the Buildtool when it positions a blueprint on the floor, and some blueprints, like Integrated Buildings or Mineshafts, are hidden from it. The pack uses the mod's own recipe for it.^[2][3]

Once a preview is out, use the arrow buttons on the right (or your configured keys) to move it around. You can exit with Esc to reposition, then right click again to re-enter. If you place something you don't like, the list of recent operations lets you click the left arrow to undo and the right arrow to redo.^[3]

Step two: the Scan Tool

Next, make the Scan Tool. The pack changed this recipe, so don't rely on what you remember from the mod's defaults. Its screen includes a placeholder filler function for the top parts of a schematic, which helps schematics fit more naturally into their environment.^[2][3]

Step three: Shape Tool and Calipers

The Shape Tool also has a recipe changed by the pack. Its recipe id uses the minecolonies namespace, so look for that id if you search recipes. The Calipers uses the mod's own recipe.^[2]

Step four: placeholder blocks

Last come three placeholder blocks: the Placeholder Block, the Solid Placeholder and the Fluid Placeholder. The pack changed the recipes for the Placeholder Block and the Solid Placeholder. The Fluid Placeholder uses the mod's own recipe.^[2]

Unverified The sources here do not show exactly what the Shape Tool, the Calipers and the three placeholder blocks do in this pack. No in-game guidebook was found for the mod, and no quests in this pack involve it, so check these items in-game before relying on specific behavior.

Same as in the All the Mods 10 2.11 guide

Structurize works differently from a typical machine mod. The sources for this pack describe it as a set of building tools: placeholder blocks, a placement preview, and options for how a schematic gets placed. This section covers what those sources actually explain.^[4][5]

Unverified The sources I have don't describe any machines, multiblocks, power, fluid or item automation for Structurize, and the pack has no Structurize config files. I'm leaving those topics out rather than guessing.

Block placement patterns

Structurize has several placement iterators, which set the order in which blocks of a schematic get placed. These are their in-game descriptions:^[4]

• Default: row by row block placement.^[4]
• Hilbert: mathematical proximity based block placement.^[4]
• Random: places blocks in the x/z plane in a random order.^[4]
• Inward circle: placement in a circle, starting from the outside.^[4]
• Inward circle height 1, 2, 3 and 4: placement in a circle, placing outer rows up to 1, 2, 3 or 4 higher respectively.^[4]

Placeholder filler

The scan tool's interface has a placeholder filler function for the top parts of a schematic. Its purpose is to make schematics fit more naturally in their environment. It has four adjustable settings, and each one tells you whether it adds to the value or multiplies it.^[4]

• Block distance: sets the minimum distance placeholders stay away from existing blocks. It is additive, for example 2.^[4]
• Height offset: sets an offset to the y-limit that placeholders generate up to. It is additive, for example -1.^[4]
• Radius: increases or decreases the size of the excluded center circle. It is multiplicative, for example 0.5.^[4]
• Y stretch: increases or decreases the height of the excluded center circle. It is multiplicative, for example 1.5.^[4]

Preview and undo

When you have a preview, use the arrow buttons on the right to move it around, or use the configured keys. You can also press Esc to exit and reposition, then right click again to re-enter.^[4]

The undo/redo window lists your recent operations. Click the left arrow to undo one and the right arrow to redo it.^[4]

Crafting the tools

Several Structurize items have recipes in this pack. The pack changed some of them, so don't assume the mod's defaults apply. The recipes below are the in-pack versions.^[5]

The Build Tool (Build Tool) and the Calipers (Calipers) use the mod's own recipes.^[5]

Structurize doesn't have a tier ladder in this pack. Everything the recipe dump shows for it is a shaped crafting recipe for a tool or a placeholder block, so the only progression is the order in which you decide to craft them.^[6]

Unverified No quests in this pack could be confirmed for Structurize, and the mod isn't confirmed to be on the ATM Star quest path. There's also no in-jar guidebook or reusable official documentation to draw tiers from.

Recipes the pack leaves as the mod made them

The Build Tool, the Calipers and the Fluid Placeholder all use the mod's own recipes. The pack hasn't touched them.^[6]

Recipes the pack changed

Four recipes are flagged as changed by the pack, so don't rely on the mod's defaults or on older guides for them. These are the Scan Tool, the Placeholder Block, the Solid Placeholder and the Shape Tool.^[6]

Structurize doesn't add much to the world by itself. In this pack its link to other mods is the Build Tool (the Build Tool), which shows up as an ingredient in the recipes for MineColonies items. If you want to build a colony, you'll be crafting with this tool all the time.^[6]

Colony buildings

The hut and building blocks of MineColonies all use the Build Tool as one of their ingredients. That covers the Town Hall, the Builder's Hut, the Residence, the Guard Tower and many more. Most of them pair the Build Tool with planks and one themed item. The Farm, for example, is built around a hoe, and the Library around a book.^[6]

The Builder's Hut also uses the Build Tool.

Some buildings can be crafted in more than one way. The Farm, Forester's Hut, Mine and Courier's Hut each have a recipe per tool or boot tier, but every variant still needs the Build Tool.^[6]

Recipes the pack changed

The pack has changed a handful of these recipes compared to the mod's own. Check the recipe in game or on this wiki rather than relying on what you remember from vanilla MineColonies. The changed ones are:^[6]

• Compost Barrel (Compost Barrel)^[6]
• Barracks^[6]
• Blacksmith's Hut^[6]
• Crusher^[6]
• Mystical Site^[6]
• Plantation Field^[6]
• Smeltery^[6]
• Rack^[6]
• Builder's Goggles^[6]
