- /descend

Commands that alter biome data, use images, or do any form of arbitrary file operation will be harder, if not impossible to implement due to API limitations. The schematics commands will be implemented, but will use structure files instead, and limited to the world they're made in.
Patterns
Patterns are currently limited in features. You can only define blocks with different states, and that's it. The following will be implemented in the future.
- Weighted Random Patterns (Eg:
20%stone,80%dirt
) - Random Block States (Eg:
*wool
makes a bunch of random coloured wool) - Clipboard Patterns
- Type or State Only Patterns (Eg:
^[waterlogged=true]
makes any waterloggable blocks, waterlogged) - Block Category Patterns
Mask
Masks have even less functionality as of writing. The following will be available in the future.
- Negated Masks (!)
- Offset Masks (< and >)
- Random Mask
- Block Category Mask
- Mask Intersection
- Region Mask
- Surface Mask
- Expression Mask
- Solid Mask
Brushes and Tools
Brushes and tools currently only are limited to preset items. Soon though, any item can be binded to, so stay tuned for that!
Selections
The only selection shape available is a cuboid. The other selection modes that you find in the planned command list will be implemented in the future.
One thing we got other the Java mod, is we have the ability to see our selections, and not limited to a specific version of Minecraft, or structure blocks. This can be toggled with ;drawsel
.
Kit
Unlike the original mod, which was made for game intended for keyboard only, this addon is made for all kinds of devices. The purpose of the kit, which can be received with ;kit
, is to be able to use WorldEdit's more common features more easily. See Kit for more info.
