Programmable Minecraft: coding at runtime


Hello everyone! The Programmable Minecraft project is progressively growing and I’d like to share its current status with you today.

We polished the interaction mechanisms we had designed earlier, so we could begin to «expose» the code involved. Users can now carry out a few basic tasks (such as placing a block of a specific kind on a determinate position of the world). While only a very reduced number of interactions have been incorporated into the project until now, the number of applications these have is huge.

An example of application is the generation of structures of enourmous size and complexity. What would manually take days (or even weeks) can be achieved through simple algorithms in a few minutes.

Here are a few screenshots of some structures we’ve been generating to test the project:

Sierpinski Triangle

Dragon Curve

Archimedean Spiral

¡Hola a todos! El proyecto de Minecraft Programable avanza poco a poco, y vengo a compartirles su estado actual:

Puliendo un poco los mecanismos de interacción desarrollados inicialmente, comenzamos a «exponer» el código útil para dicha interacción. Ahora es posible para los usuarios realizar algunas acciones básicas mediante código (como colocar un bloque en una determinada posición del mundo). Si bien se ha incorporado un número muy pequeño de interacciones, los resultados alcanzables mediante ellas son prácticamente ilimitados.

Aquí hay algunos screenshots de las estructuras que hemos generado para probar al proyecto:

Dragon Curve

Archimedean Spiral
