BlockGrid[]
Main page: Template:BlockGrid/doc
Block grid allows you to make pictures like this:
Simple example
It uses the terms from BlockSprite to define single-character-abbrevations for blocks. Do it like this:
{{BlockGrid|d=dirt|w=water
|dwdd
|dddd
}}
In short, you pick a character you like, and put =something behind it.
Do not make them too big! There is a maximum of blocks / page.
Schematic[]
Main page: Template:Schematic/doc
The Schematic template is similar to BlockGrid, but adapted for Redstone circuits and similar diagrams. See the documentation page for full details, but it can stack several images in one grid space, add short labels, and show components from the top or side. Large diagrams can cause problems with page loading; use of LoadBox or LoadPage can be used to work around this.
