  • Break the block it is placed on to remove it and get your banner back
  • Place multiple on the same block!
  • Works in multiplayer & survival friendly!
  • Can make flags bigger, rotate, flip them and even make them wave in the wind!
  • Detailed feature explanations in advancements page.

⛳SUPPORTED BLOCKS:

  • fences
  • walls
  • glass panes
  • iron & copper bars
  • iron & copper chains
  • lightning rods
  • bamboo stem
  • end rod

🤔HOW TO USE:

Crouch + click a banner on one of the supported blocks to place your banner as a flag! Break the block it is placed on to remove it.

Crouch near the flag pole while holding a diamond to make your flag bigger! You get your diamond back when breaking the flag.

Crouch near the flag pole while holding a stick to flip the flag! Hold the stick in your offhand to rotate the flag.

Crouch near the flag pole while holding a feather to make the flag wave!

❗FOR ADMINS

If you have land protection on your server use this command:

'/function bannerflags:delay_on'

This will add a small delay when placing banners so players can't place them in protected areas.

Performance is optimized & tested, it wont cause you any issues.

❌UNINSTALLATION:

If you don't end up liking the pack here are the ways you can remove the flags:

  • manually breaking each block that a flag has been placed on so you get the banners back.

or

  • writing /function bannerflags:removeall (you wont get your banners back though)

❕SUMMARY:

This datapack greatly expands the ways you can use banners in Minecraft, such as for decoration, storytelling & direction pointers. If you have any questions, issues or suggestions you can DM me on Discord @Gurkis
