Structory

Structory is a Minecraft plugin for building interactive multi-block structures. A player assembles a shape in the world, activates its check block and gets a working altar, forge, generator or crafting station.

Structures and recipes are defined with YAML, so you don't need to write Java to make your own.

Getting started​

  1. Install Structory and start your server once.
  2. Create a simple structure, or use the layout wizard to capture a real build.
  3. Add options such as crafting, effects or privacy.
  4. Test in-game, then inspect your structure with Admin Tools.

You can mix custom crafting slots, a recipe picker, item/economy integrations, particle effects, privacy and rebuild behavior in the same structure.

Free and Premium​

The Free edition focuses on structure-based crafting. Premium adds advanced systems such as the in-game editor, crates, animated BlockDisplays, storage/bag options, ownership controls, custom integrations and extended administration tools.

In 26.2, Premium also includes configurable particle geometry, structure states, YAML/SQLite/MariaDB instance persistence, and improved editor history, preview and diagnostics.

Optional plugin integrations are detected at startup. If you don't use third-party item providers, a log reporting zero hooked loaders is normal.
