Minecraft Draw Picture
Description
Minecraft Draw Picture converts an image into a Minecraft block mosaic and builds it directly in the world through console commands.
The source can be a bitmap copied to the Windows clipboard or a supported image-file path copied as text.
The plugin rescales the image, applies brightness correction, converts pixels to the closest colors in its Minecraft block palette, creates a preview,
estimates the required commands and time, and then places the blocks relative to the selected world direction or the players current view.
The renderer tracks progress, groups compatible neighboring pixels into efficient placement operations where possible, and allows drawing to be started, paused, resumed, or reset.
Distance, image scale, brightness, command delay, orientation, and optional automatic timeout adjustment can be changed from the plugin interface.
The preview and block estimate are recalculated when image-processing settings change.
Requirements and safety notes: the Minecraft world must allow commands, and the game window must be able to receive commands from AutoHotkey.
Creative mode is recommended. When placement is based on the players view direction, do not move or rotate after drawing starts because all generated coordinates are calculated from the captured origin and orientation.
Very large images or aggressive timeout settings may overload the command stream, especially on servers or slower computers.
`Auto` and `Manual` are two states of the same toggle button. In **Auto** mode, the plugin reads Minecrafts local `latest.log` file and automatically selects or adjusts the delay between commands.
This mode is intended primarily for local single-player Minecraft, although it can be disabled at any time so the timeout can be configured manually.
When playing on a remote or multiplayer server, **Auto must be disabled** and the button must be switched to **Manual**.
The local log does not reliably represent the servers actual command-processing speed, so the `Timeout` value must be tuned manually. If the terminal or game console shows skipped, rejected, or unexecuted commands,
increase the delay gradually until command execution becomes stable.
