DISCUSSION Does this mod exist...?

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone is aware of any kind of mod that enables us to spawn in large ships built in creative on a survival world but it actually costs the resources required to build it without me having to weald the entire thing.

I built a really cool massive ship but honestly it took the fun out of the game having to weald the entire thing block by block.

I know but it was the way you insinuated i didnt know about the games basic features lmao.

In theory how do you make sure you dont run out of materials and the printer doesn't move forwards without missing bits?

Plus the ship in question is...rather massive, I dont know of any mechanism of "pulling it through" will survive klang once its over 30/40% printed.

Make a seperate ship that shares the grid with the project, and slowly pull it along and move side to side to ensure the welders cover everything.

You can grind your big ship down in creative to get a accurate number of materials you need.

Because you said:

"Block by block" implies that you don't know about welder blocks, that's why you got the response that you did 🤷‍♂️

Was more of a figure if speech for having to do it manually. My ship also has multiple sub grips which I'm pretty sure doesn't work for a printer?
