Replicating Patterns Quickly Using Arrays
Duplicating Sections with Arrays
When creating repeating designs—such as colonnades, arches, repeating room layouts, or dungeon corridors—you can use the array tool instead of rebuilding each section individually.
1. Hold down the ALT key to open the Effortless Building menu.
2. Select the Array tool (or matrix modifier) from the available options.
3. Set up the replication pattern according to the direction and spacing you want your repeated blocks to follow.
Placing and Multiplying Blocks
Once the array modifier is configured, begin placing blocks along your primary segment:
- As you place blocks, the array functionality duplicates the pattern across your designated grid or line.
- You can combine arrays with different build modes (such as Line or Wall) to quickly project repeated architecture across your build site.
- The tool functions seamlessly in both creative and survival play, saving significant time on large construction projects that rely on recurring motifs.
