Yes to print, color, and shape, but it doesn't do events. I assume that people will just save all the bricks in the server if they need that. I had made a version that could kinda work with events, but it was so unmanageable that I decided it was not useful until I had enough free time to spend working out a nicer interface for the whole mod.

Would be totally possible to do actually - well, not saving it clientside, but transmitting a save to the client (since you'd need client code anyway) and also loading them onto the server.
I would make it but I'd literally rather recode the duplicator entirely, since that thing's a loving pain to work with.

you can then reload it with either buildbot in any server or the duplicator in your own server

I dont think you can save it on a server that doesn't have the duplicator addon to begin with (Badspot's, any other server without it)
perhaps you could make a client function that makes an invisible raycast(cannot be visible due to the fact it would then require the server to get a datablock from the client) and then get the brickstackup (or whatever it's called) and save it to a file that can be loaded by buildbot or a macro
