OLIMATICA GUIDE

Menu and controls

The menu of the chat, the bar of touch screens, the arrow keys of PC, and the armor stand's tricks.

The menu

Open the chat: the OliMatica button sits next to the settings button. The menu's tabs are down its left side. It acts on the nearest projector, up to 48 blocks away; close the chat to see what changed.

At the bottom of every tab: the address of this wiki and the version of the pack.

Touch screens

An OliMatica button at the top of the screen, left of the game's buttons, opens a bar of two pages; touch it again to close the bar. It stays as you left it, page and all, while you play.

Under the bar, a bubble says what each press did. PLACE moves the hologram while you watch it, without the chat.

PC: the arrow keys

While you play, with nothing open:

The armor stand

  • Sneak and use it (empty hand): the next build of the pack, in the order of the pack. It changes the armor stand's pose: the game keeps it, so the projector keeps its build.
  • Name it with a name tag, with the name of a build of the pack (as the site writes it, all small letters, or all capitals): it shows that build, whatever its pose.
  • Take its item back: an armor stand again. Give it back: the hologram comes back where it was.
