Troubleshooting

The menu doesn't open

• Check the world has the Bedrock Holobuild behavior pack turned on, and that you're on Minecraft 1.26.60 or newer.
• If it says Holobuild isn't for you, an operator has limited who can use it. See Who can use Holobuild.
• Try /holobuild instead of the wand.

I can't see the ghosts

• Ghosts only show for the build you're working on. Choose Carry on a build to join one.
• They're drawn near you. Walk closer, or raise Display quality in Settings.
• "Too far to check" means part of the build isn't loaded. Go nearer and it catches up.
• Missing other layers? Punch the Show button beside the build.

The buttons don't work on my phone

• On a phone, Minecraft tells add-ons nothing about a tap on empty air, and they can't see where your finger is. They only know where the middle of your screen looks.
• So turn until the button is in the middle of your screen, then tap the ground with the Holo Wand.
• With split controls on (Settings > Touch), just use the Holo Wand, from any distance.

See On a phone.

A button or setting is missing

Operators can turn features off for the whole world in Admin settings, and they disappear from players' menus.

My chests aren't used

• Holobuild only takes from chests linked to your build. Sneak and use the wand on a chest to link it. See Linked chests.
• A linked chest far away only counts while someone is close enough to keep that area loaded. The Printer and What do I need? screens say how many are out of reach.
• Refill from chests only works in survival.

The printer is waiting

It's run out of a block. Its screen says what it needs: put some in a linked chest, or in your inventory if it takes from there, and it carries on by itself.

My build is too big to save

A blueprint can be at most 64 blocks wide, 64 long and 64 tall. Save a big build in parts, or upload it as a file through BedrockRelay, which cuts it into pieces for you. See Builds bigger than 64.

The camera won't come back

While the camera flies round a build, tap sneak and it comes straight back to you. On a phone, it's fine to start it while you're crouched.
