❓ Frequently Asked Questions

🧩 How does region placement work?

When placing a saved area in the world:

• In singleplayer the region content is directly written into the world — blocks, entities, and block data are fully restored.
• On multiplayer servers the mod uses ghost placement technique — the region will be visible to the client, but the actual server world remains unchanged.

⚠️ Do not use this feature to deceive or exploit multiplayer gameplay. Always follow server rules.

🔧 Will server-side world editing support be added?

This mod is designed as a basic client-side mod.
Server-side editing support (such as actual block modifications on multiplayer servers) will be added via companion mods in the future.

📦 What is the .destru file format?

.destru is a special file format created for efficient storage of block data, block entities, and regular entities from multiple regions with minimal file size.

• Internally it's a structured .nbt file.
• Main priorities are compactness and performance.
