SchemaLoader
Schema Loader is a Fabric server mod that reads .litematic schematic files and pastes them into the world, with the paste spread over time to limit lag.
What it does
Schematics placed in the server's schematics folder can be built directly in the world. Before a build is confirmed, a particle outline shows the bounding box where the structure will be placed. Rotation by 90, 180 or 270 degrees and mirroring are available during the paste, and the schematic name can be completed with Tab. Files with non-ASCII characters in their names are loaded safely.
A dynamic, time-budgeted queue spreads large pastes over several ticks so the server aims to hold 20 TPS while building very large structures. Blocks that are identical to what is already in place are skipped, which saves processing time. If a structure lands in the wrong spot, the built-in schema undo command reverts the last operation.
Schema Loader is server-side only, so players join without installing it. Installation requires Fabric API. The mod is published for Fabric only, for 1.21.11 and 26.2, and the latest file is 1.4.0 for 26.2. The code is under the MIT License, and the project is not open source.
