Features

To modify an armour stand, write one or certain combinations of the codes in a book and quill, and throw it at the armour stand's feet. This expansion pack allows players to modify the position of the arms, legs, head, body and rotation of an armour stand, and make copies of armour stands.

Codes

 
Giving an armour stand a pose (code in the book is from a previous version)

Use the following codes, each word on a different page, for the corresponding effect.

Codes can be combined to perform multiple actions at the same time, where the pages with code can be in any order

From Player Rotation

Each part of the armour stand can be set to any pose depending on where the player is facing. Use one of the codes below in the first page and any optional codes in the second page while all other pages in the written book are empty. Stand inside the armour stand, throw the written book with one of the codes on the ground, and quickly face the direction you want this part to be rotated as.

Code Optional Description
head The head of the armour stand faces the same direction as the player
body The body of the armour stand faces the same direction as the player
arms left OR right The arms of the armour stand point in the direction the player is facing (If specified, only the left/right arm)
legs left OR right The legs of the armour stand point in the direction the player is facing (If specified, only the left/right leg)
rotate The rotation of the armour stand is the same as the player

Predefined Poses

There are a couple of presets for some of the basic poses.

Code 1 Code 2 Description
legs standing Puts the legs in the default position
legs sitting Puts the legs in a sitting position
legs walking Brings one leg forward and the other backward
legs flying Brings both legs up and back as if the stand is leaping forward
arms reaching Brings both arms up like a zombie
arms hanging Brings arms down to the sides
arms swinging Brings one arm forward and the other backward
arms resting Brings both arms down and together
arms raised Brings both arms upwards
head forward Head looks straight forward in default position
head up Head looks up
head down Head looks down
head left Head looks left
head right Head looks right
body reset Body to default position

Mirror, Swap and Flip

Code 1 Code 2 Code 3 Description
mirror arms OR legs left OR right Mirrors the left/right arm/leg to the other arm/leg
swap arms OR legs Switch the rotation of both arms/legs.
flip arms OR legs Mirrors the rotation of both arms/legs.
flip body Rotates the body 180° over its shoulders

Copy and Paste

Armour Stands with custom poses can have their data stored in armour stand items by throwing a book with `copy` and armour stand items at this armour stand. This will copy its pose, base plate and size to the item and some particles will be displayed to indicate that it has been copied successfully. Placing this item will create an armour stand with the same pose as the original one.

Code Additional Description
copy Armour stand item(s) on the ground Copy pose, base plate and size information onto the armour stand items
paste Armour stand item (from `copy`) on the ground Copy pose, base plate and size information from the armour stand item onto the armour stand
