dSchema

by drag0n1zed

dSchema is a Forge utility for building schematics, with tiered permissions that decide which players can use each feature.

ForgeClient and serverGNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.20.1

What it does

Players and server owners use dSchema to plan figure shapes and structures before placing them. Permissions are organized in tiers, and an individual player can receive overrides that differ from the tier they belong to. Tier membership is changed with an in-game command, so no config edit is needed once the server is running.

Both the server and every player need dSchema, since the permission checks and the planning tools run on each side. The mod is published for Forge only, with a single build for 1.20.1, released 2025-08-04 under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only. The source code is public, so server owners can read how the tiers are checked.

Key features

  1. Plan figure shapes

    Figure shapes can be laid out ahead of construction, so a build can be sketched before any blocks are placed.

  2. Tier-based permissions

    Access to schematic features is grouped into tiers that a server owner assigns to players.

  3. Player-specific overrides

    A single player can be given permissions that differ from the tier they are otherwise placed in.

  4. Tier management command

    An in-game command lets an operator move players between tiers while the server is running.

Who it’s for: Server owners who want to control schematic features by player rank, and builders who plan figure shapes on a Forge 1.20.1 world or server.
