Official Block Coding Program

My reason for this is because of how hard Minecraft modding can be. I have tampered with it, but it’s just too hard for someone like me to comprehend. My idea is that on the minecraft.net website there is a section where we can download a mod/ addon maker for Minecraft Bedrock and Java. There should also be a 3D modeler and an easy to use software for editing the 2d format textures. The block coding software should works like this in my head: Step 1 to creating a giant monster. 1. Use the 3D modeler to stack up some blocks to create the shape. 2. Use the easy to use 2d texture making software ( that lets you see where the texture appears at on the blocks in the 3D viewer ) to make the look of the monster. 3. Use blocks like; when player in(25) block radius then, damage type(long range), launches(green_ooze), projectile damage(3) hearts. That is how it works. There would be a lot of other features that are available to it, and I know it is big, but let me say this, it is worth it to me, and I’m sure it is worth it to hundreds of thousands of other people who want to be creators, so please add this block coding based Mod / Addon creating system, and thank you.

    You are assuming that Mojang/Microsoft want people to develop mods, when it really is the community of very dedicated (and many more not so dedicated) modders that keep the modding world alive.   So I would not hold my breath on any modding help from Mojang/Microsoft.

    Every sign is that they very much would prefer if all mods went away, and that the only reason why they have not fully blocked mods is that they would lose a huge number of customers.

    Here are some of the many things against mods:

    - The EULA allows them but its wording is such that it makes it almost pointless to maintain a mod unless it is for yourself.

    - There are no built-in stable modding APIs that people could use with faith that their mods would not break.  Forge and Fabric do their best, but it is not enough.

    - Documentation for modding is very spotty, and often obsolete.  Tutorials are really more like "examples" for special cases than actual tutorials.  I have not found a single comprehensive tutorial that systematically teaches all of the necessary concepts... like what a professional educational material writer would make.

    - The modding sub-forum at the minecraft forum is largely a dead zone for answers.  Lots of people ask for questions, but you very rarely see well intentioned and helpful replies.  It is pretty obvious that there isn't even one Ms/Mojang developer trying to answer questions.

    My recommendation for all but the most stubborn and dedicated is to run away from Minecraft modding.
