Port A Beacon
by Pheonix039
Port A Beacon lets players pick up a built beacon pyramid and place it again somewhere else, without mining each block by hand.
What it does
Shift and right click on a beacon orders the whole pyramid to be packed up and then placed down again at a new location, rebuilt in one step. Multiple block types are supported, and the pyramid is only lifted when it is built out one block at a time. Nearby blocks are not destroyed during the rebuild, though players are advised to choose their target spot carefully. Fabric API is required. The mod runs on the server, so players join without installing anything, and it is published for Fabric across 6 release versions, 1.21.1 – 26.2, under All rights reserved.
Key features
Pyramid pickup
A whole beacon pyramid is packed up in one action instead of being mined block by block.
Instant rebuild
A packed pyramid can be placed down again at a chosen location, which is faster than rebuilding by hand.
Multiple block types
Pyramids built from more than one block type can be moved, not only pyramids of a single material.

How it compares
Better Beacon Range is server-side only, open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and targets 1.21.4 – 1.21.11, so it changes beacon reach rather than moving pyramids. BeaconExtender needs the server and is open source under the Apache License 2.0 for 1.21.4 – 26.1.2, with clients optional.
