How to make a structure spawn only once?

I have seen a few mods that are able to make a certain structure spawn only once for each new world you make, typically at a specific set of co-ordinates. I want to know if there is a way I can do this myself and if I can also make another variant where it spawns only once but without being at a specific set of co-ordinates.

I don't believe this is possible. just make it really rare (like 1 structure per 1,000,000 chunks

Interesting idea, also thought about it, though decided it's unpractical in my situation.

But for playability case, I suggest making anything that can lead you to such structure. With generating only one per world, sometimes it can be impossible to find one.

Sorry it took me so long to reply but my plan is really just to make it to at least spawn at the same set of co-ordinates each time.

Create a structure, for example using structures blocks in a test world then add the structure in the mod.

Then add a variable in the variable tab in the workspace with the name you want, with variable type set to string and variable scope set to global_world.

Then add a procedure and change it's event trigger to something like "player joins the world"

add " IF [get global [Your variable] ] = false then

place at 0 0 0 (you can change the coordinates) with rotation [You choose] mirror [You choose] structure [Your structure]

set global [Your variable] to true

 

This way everytime a player joins the game will attempt to spawn the structure at the coordinates, but it will only do so if the structure doesn't already exist (if your variable is on false)
