Edit-Mode is a in-game development toolkit for map makers, quest designers and modpack creators. It replaces dozens of command blocks, complex datapacks and hours of manual setup with intuitive GUI tools and a lightweight scripting language — all without leaving the game.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ WHAT DOES IT DO?
The mod provides four core systems that work together:
- SCRIPTS (in development)
- TRIGGER ZONES
- HUD SYSTEM (in development)
- GAMERULES MANAGER
- SKILL WOOD (beta)
- KINEMATIC CAM (beta)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ 1. SCRIPTS
Write logic in .txt files, run them from chat, command blocks or zones. The mod adds a small scripting language on top of vanilla commands.
Scripts are stored in: saves/<world>/editmode/scripts/
Used .mcfunction
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ 2. TRIGGER ZONES
Create invisible zones that run scripts when a player enters, exits or stays inside.
• Visual editor with coordinates and conditions
• Selection wand (like WorldEdit) — LMB point 1, RMB point 2
• Events: enter / exit / inside (with custom tick interval)
• Wireframe render visible only to operators
• Teleport to zone, reset state, bulk management
Zones are stored in: saves/<world>/editmode/zones.json
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ 3. HUD SYSTEM
Create custom on-screen interfaces without resource packs or coding.
• 4 element types: TEXT, IMAGE, PROGRESS_BAR, CIRCULAR_BAR
• Visual editor with drag & drop, resize handles, 7 anchors, Z-order
• Placeholders: ${score points}, ${player hp}, ${var timer}, ${team color}, ${server tps}, ${entity @e[type=zombie]}, and 20+ more
• Conditions per element (vanilla `execute if`)
• Per-player and global modes
• Control from scripts: `hud show`, `hud hide`, `hud set text`, `hud set value`, `hud set color`
• Custom PNG textures from world folder or resource pack
• Auto-size from PNG
• Color codes (§c, §a, §e ...) for colorful text
HUD is stored in: saves/<world>/editmode/hud.json
Custom textures: saves/<world>/editmode/hud/textures/
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ 4. GAMERULES MANAGER
• Full list of vanilla boolean game rules in a clean GUI
• Toggle instantly with checkboxes
• Synchronized in real time with the server
• No need to remember /gamerule commands
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ WHO IS IT FOR?
• Map makers building adventure maps, RPGs, parkour, horror, mini-games
• Quest designers tired of command blocks
• Modpack authors needing quick in-game tools
• Anyone who wants custom HUDs, zones and logic without writing a mod
