    //up is an extremely useful command that comes with WorldEdit. It works like this, you type //up <number of blocks in the air> and it places a glass block at that elevation above you. For example if you type //up 25, it will place a glass block 25 blocks above you.
    This could be packaged with extcommands++, which in my opinion should have more in it for a $50 package. In my opinion it should come with a command of a minute or so, but that's obviously open to be discussed. This would be very useful when making things such as a platform high in the air for a trampoline or something.

    Thanks

    Eh, this could have many problems with permissions, and it replacing a previous block above you.'however, with the appropriate coding this could be a alright suggestion.

    This would need a cool down, and it would have to be with a block in your inventory (with the full WE version, it can be anything). It would take playing with, but seeing how much work the devs can do, I don't really doubt anything is possible at this point.

    I agree with this, fly is an expensive feature that many have paid for and this would really cut into that.

    That's not at all what it does... It doesn't let you fly around freely, it literally just places 1 block in the air. Also, as I mentioned, it could be packaged with extcommands++ which takes $150 to get.

    If you need to build something in the air, it is useful.

    Fly also costs about a third less than this.

    I'd use it for things I needed that were floating.

    For example, if I want to build a plane, usually I start by building a tower up to place the lowest block, then breaking the tower other than the block. I would then finish the plane, with fly, from that one block.

    I have to be honest though, I don't think it's really practical to use this to build whole structures. It would take longer to calculate the distance and build an entire thing for a user without fly this way, then actually placing the blocks. That's why I also suggested a cool down -- this doesn't seem like it should be //up's intended purpose.

    instead of //up wouldn't it be better if it's a command that simply placed a block beneath where you're standing? You can fly up, and then use the command to place a block beneath your feet.

    Pretty much the only point I see. But honestly, making a dirt pillar is not that hard.

    Neither is placing a crafting table, but still /wb is a command people simply can't live without.
