Minecraft has a lot of blocks, but what if they had more? Why do we need them? Please don't just add lists of things - these will be marked as spam and removed! Also, no furniture, guns, or vertical/"sideways"/"upright"/"standing" slabs (yes, we see you).

Need help building? Blueprints!

I think blueprints would be great. They would work like this: You could make a prototype of your build in a certain location and you could set the amount of certain materials that you need. This would be a cool edition to Minecraft and it would be very useful.

    We should have the ability to create a blueprint in creative mode.  This could work in several ways.

    Lay the makers for a building design to determine the dimensions and resources needed to reproduce that structure.  Blueprints could cost XP to use, depending on the size and quality of resources used to make a structure. Blueprints could only be used if the player had the resources in inventory or in a nearby chest. This could help save time rebuilding the same structure multiple times, and allow for creative players to show off their creations.  Blueprints could then be added similarly to skins, and be made available for purchase through the store.  

    Blueprints should list the materials used in construction and how much flat area is required to build the structure. Blueprints would be for the construction blocks only and not include torches, beds, construction tables, etc.
