    So anyone who uses the copy paste function in Adv build mode knows it can be tricky to select an area in such a way as to easily align the template to the substrate.

    In create docking you are able to place the core anywhere you wish,

    Could this type of placement be used for copy/paste?

    Neat idea, I think this definitely could be beneficial to advanced building projects.

    I think it would likely be computationally challenging but I have been known to be wrong from time to time

    Oh god yes, please this is absolutely a necessity. And make it so that clicking once places it free of your camera and lets you move the template around block by block before it is finally pasted.

    Yes! Being able to move the template around with arrow keys would be so amazing! You could free cam around and look to see if it is all lined up. This would be brilliant, and eliminate the constant paste, undo, paste, undo. This x 100.
