Minecraft doesn't allow you to perfectly implement impact with a map. Starting from the number of available buttons, ending with their strange mechanics.
For example, if a player stands point-blank against a wall and presses to move, even if there is a small animation of movement, he remains motionless for the code.
Therefore, everything is implemented within the framework of what is available. Let's start in order.
First you need to go to the plugin menu with the command:
When you open the menu you will see many icons, what they do you can see in this tab.
We are only interested in 2 buttons: [create a new painting]
and [import]
.
[create a new painting]
The option immediately gives you a map in your hands. Unless, of course, you have exceeded the maximum possible number of drafts. You also need free space to work. You become invisible, invulnerable, motionless and fly into the air to the floor of the block.
[import]
This option is needed for editing, for example, regular minecraft maps. If you want to highlight state boundaries or something similar.
You need to take the map into the cursor and click on this button with it. The map will appear as a draft in the list of all drafts.
Just go to the all drafts window from the main menu, find this draft and click on the edit button.
After clicking, it immediately gives you a map in your hands. You become invisible, invulnerable, motionless and fly into the air to the floor of the block.
The WASD buttons are responsible for moving the cursor around the canvas. Be careful being on the ground, stay in the air in flight mode!!! The player is moved into flight mode for a reason; there is no epileptic shaking in the air. When you come down to ground and press WASD, you will be shaken.
The right mouse click button is responsible for drawing on the canvas itself. Use if only mouse clicking is possible. Shift is optional.
Shift + WASD button is responsible for fast movement of cursor on the canvas. It moves 10 pixels per drawing tick.
Pressing Q (throwing an item) is responsible for rolling back the action. For example, if you accidentally left a line and want to erase it, you can not click the eraser, but simply press this button.
Clicking on the map, changing a slot, changing left and right hands will cancel drawing and saving the map at the time of action.
Tools: line, square, filled square, circle, filled circle to draw, you need to hold down the right mouse button and then press WASD. To stop the pattern, simply release the mouse.
To use the selection tool, you need to hold down the right mouse button and press the WASD keys to select any area. When you release the key, the area will be selected. Then, when you press WASD, this area will move to where you clicked. And when you click on the right mouse button, the area will be fixed.
To use the text tool, you need to select it, then select a font and font size. Move the cursor to the desired location and enter text in the chat. After sending the text, it will appear on the canvas. By pressing Q you can cancel the action.
To access all the tools, enter the /draw
command while drawing. A menu will open where you can undo the action, save the painting or, on the contrary, reject it. You can choose the color and size of the cursor or the background color. Also switch the tool from the pencil to something else.
For quick access to functions, you can use commands instead of the GUI. To do this, go to the Commands tab.
In order to start drawing, the player must meet a number of requirements:
The player must not have exceeded the draft limit.
The player must have free space around and above him. This is necessary for the player to move into the air and have room to move.
