You can do it by having coordinates shown on bar if you want, not that points out to but give coordinates in the bar.

If needed this way just let me know

Make a custom block (invisible) and add 1 of these blocks inside your structure

Then use template block structure (6x6 you can do till 64x64 for example or anything you want)

When return is true then send message with TEXT blocks. Like: create TEXt with X coordinate, Y coordinate and z coordinate for your invisible block which is your structure

I did it many times, it works good just do not make template too big or it will lag a bit once procedure activates

Do not re message your topics please, I was sleeping, here is 7 in the morning.

I already told you use: SEND MESSAGE with text blocks (inside text blocks use what you need such as coordinates)

Well, unfortunately it's impossible or EXTREMELY DIFFICULT.

The structures created by MCreator are not really structures, but features(Like trees, lakes), and unlike structures, they do not have a built-in method for finding their position in world

(That's why /locate command can't find them).

So even with code It's either impossible or very hard
