About the Mod
In the base Create mod, the Schematicannon is a powerful tool for automated construction. However, it often struggles when encountering blocks from other mods—especially those with complex NBT data, custom rendering, or multi-block structures.
Create: Enhanced Schematicannon is designed to fix these limitations. It enhances the printing logic to support a wider range of third-party mod blocks, making your automated building process truly "mod-compatible."

Key Features
Block Entity Sync (Server-Side Data Retrieval): Standard Schematic and Quill typically extracts NBT data from the client side, which can result in missing information for certain Block Entities. This mod introduces a Block Entity Sync feature that requests data directly from the server, ensuring the generated .nbt files are complete and accurate.

Enhanced Printing Logic: Prevents NBT data loss when the Schematicannon places blocks from other mods by ensuring proper data restoration.
Multi-Part Compatibility: Fixes issues where blocks with complex collision boxes or multiple parts fail to be placed correctly.
Deep Integration: Specifically targets compatibility gaps between Create and popular decoration/technical mods.
