Armor Stand Editor

The Armor Stand Editor mod provides an intuitive tool for changing poses and customizing armor stands directly in the game. You no longer need to use complex commands or turn to third-party services to create unique compositions.

Development was carried out with survival needs in mind, making the mod perfectly suitable for use on servers and in single-player worlds without disrupting game balance.

Compatibility with Fabric and Quilt allows the mod to be installed only on the server side, enabling players with vanilla clients to use all editor features.

How to Use

To get started, you'll need flint (or another item specified in the settings). Aim at the desired armor stand and click on it with the selected tool. The hotbar will temporarily be replaced with the editor interface (visually, without actually changing the inventory).

Right-click to activate the selected action, whose name is displayed in the interface. For fine-tuning angles and positions, hold Shift and scroll the mouse wheel to increase or decrease values.

Return to the previous menu by clicking the icon on the right. To completely close the interface, press the Q key.

Permissions

The /armorstandeditor command uses permissions in the format armorstandeditor.commands.<subcommand or main>. Editing permissions have the structure armorstandeditor.edit.<type>, see this file

For editing armor stands, players need the armorstandeditor.use permission, for working with item frames — armorstandeditor.useItemFrame. If you need to allow modification of entities disguised as armor stands, grant the armorstandeditor.useDisguised permission.

By default, players can freely edit armor stands.
