Zone Shaper

Quickstart

1. Craft a Zone Shaper at a crafting table:

1. Hold the Zone Shaper and mine a block to set point 1.
2. Aim at another block within 8 blocks and use the Zone Shaper on it to set point 2.
3. The item displays the selected cuboid’s coordinates and ready-to-use commands in chat.
4. Copy a command from chat, replace its placeholders with valid block names or coordinates, and run it to transform the zone.

The Zone Shaper selects an area; it does not automatically fill, delete, replace, or copy blocks.

Overview

Zone Shaper is a selection tool for working with large rectangular areas. Select two opposite points, then use the displayed /fill or /clone commands to modify thousands of blocks at once.

Selections are kept separately for each player and must be made within the same dimension.

What It Adds

• Zone Shaper selection tool
• Two-point cuboid selection
• Coordinate output for the selected area
• Ready-to-use commands for:
  • Filling an area
  • Replacing specific blocks
  • Deleting blocks
  • Copying an area

How To Use

Set Point 1

Hold the Zone Shaper and mine a block. The block’s coordinates become point 1, and the item tells you to select a second point.

Mining still behaves normally, so the block you mine may be destroyed.

Set Point 2

Aim at the second block and use the item on it. The block must be within the tool’s 8-block view range.

After point 2 is set, the Zone Shaper reports the complete selection and shows command templates in chat.

If point 1 was set in another dimension, point 2 is rejected. Set point 1 again in your current dimension.

View the Commands Again

Use the Zone Shaper normally after selecting two points to display the selection coordinates and command templates again.

If no complete selection exists, the item tells you to mine a block for point 1 and use the item on another block for point 2.

Abilities And Mechanics

The two points define an axis-aligned rectangular prism. The tool automatically uses the smallest and largest X, Y, and Z values, so the points can be selected in any order.

The displayed coordinates follow this format:

minimum X minimum Y minimum Z maximum X maximum Y maximum Z

The selected area includes the blocks at both endpoints.

Fill a Zone

Replace <block> with the block you want to place:

/fill <coordinates> <block> replace

For example:

/fill 10 64 10 20 70 20 minecraft:stone replace

Replace One Block Type

Replace <new_block> with the replacement block and <old_block> with the block to search for:

/fill <coordinates> <new_block> replace <old_block>

This changes only matching blocks inside the selection.

Delete a Zone

Replace every block in the selection with air:

/fill <coordinates> air

Use this carefully, especially for large selections.

Copy a Zone

Copy the selected area to a new starting position:

/clone <coordinates> <destination_x> <destination_y> <destination_z>

The destination coordinates are the corner where the copied selection begins.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft one Zone Shaper at a crafting table using the displayed recipe. Its ingredients include a wooden axe, a wooden pickaxe, and sticks.

The Zone Shaper is an equipment item that can also be used as a basic mining tool. It has 36 durability, deals 3 damage, and has improved digging speed for several common stone, dirt, and log blocks.

Progression And Strategy

• Select corners carefully before running a command; large fill and delete operations can affect many blocks.
• Use the replacement command when you want to preserve everything except one block type.
• Use a small test selection first to confirm the coordinates and block names.
• Keep the displayed coordinates intact when copying commands from chat.
• If you need a new selection, mine another block with the Zone Shaper to replace point 1.
