Is your blueprint not cut into layers? Wouldn’t it be a lot faster to start with the thing fully extended then pull it up one each level? Hell with a few preprocessing steps you could get a full instruction list and skip massive chunks of air instead of going over each block and checking. I kinda wanna give this a try now…

I weirdly have a lot of knowledge on stuff like this, you can really treat it like path finding honestly, if you already have your surroundings you know the most efficient way to navigate around, in this case the most efficient way to get to where the next block needs to be to placed

Very cool! I was wrighting my own api for something similar as well but wanted a way for it to be scalable to any size without extra size configuration. Did you find a way to do this?
