Format tool
With this tool, you can generate an NBT area or JSON advancement area. Have you ever thought it annoying to sit and count to make NBT select areas, now you can automatically generate them with this tool!
Commands
- /formattool - This will give you the tool to select the area. (Will only work in creative)
- /format nbt or json - It will give you a formatted NBT selector or JSON.
For example "[x=0,y=0,z=0,dx=0,dy=0,dz=0]". If you left click the message in the chat you will copy it to your clipboard
Tool
With the tool you can left and right click to get the area. Exactly like world edit
