A note on schematic formats

Before WorldEdit version 7 (corresponding to Minecraft 1.13), the files were saved with a “.schematic” file extension in a format that was compatible with many other software such as MCEdit, Redstone Simulator, and more. Unfortunately, the format wasn’t suited for the new block format Mojang was migrating to, so a new format was devised - named the Sponge schematic format, using the extension “.schem”.

Note that WorldEdit can still import old “.schematic” files saved in older versions (or third party programs) through a legacy compatibility layer, but they can no longer be written to.

在WorldEdit 7.0.0以前的版本(对应着Minecaft1.13以前的版本)，导出的文件后缀为".schematic"，这种格式与例如MCEdit,Redstone Simulator，还有更多其他的软件兼容，但不幸的是，这种格式不适合Mojang在新版本使用的方块格式，因此一种名为"the Sponge schematic format"(我真不知道怎么翻译好...)的新文件格式被设计了出来，文件后缀为".schem"
请注意，Worldedit仍可以凭借兼容性导入在旧版本或者第三方软件保存的".schematic"文件，但他们无法再被修改
