Thank you for planning this feature! Something else I want to suggest is adding a checkbox for creating a structure that asks if you want to be able to locate the structure with the locate command.

This is a bit different issue. Currently MCreator does not support "structures" in their true sense, but rather "sets of blocks". In vanilla Minecraft the difference is that "true structure" is bastion/ocean monument, and "set of blocks" is, for example, tree. The latter does not have locate command bound, and since MCreator structures are the latter, they can't use locate command too.

We are sorry for taking that much time, but we hope you enjoy exclusive 3 generators support :)
