Block Swapper

Description

📖 About:

Ever built a house only to realize that you should have chosen birch instead of oak wood? Well I've been there one too many times and decided to come up with a solution: Block Swapper is a Forge mod that adds a new type of tool to your game which allows you to swap placed blocks with block items in your other hand without losing the original properties such as orientation. Block Swappers come in two tiers, namely copper and netherite, which can swap all blocks that require stone tools and diamond tools respectively. 

The Netherite Block Swapper can be further strengthened via enchantments, which the Copper Block Swapper cannot hold. These include Unbreaking, Mending, Silk Touch, and an all-new enchantment called Excavating, which allows the Block Swapper to replace blocks with air, essentially instantly destroying any block you interact with. To balance this strong ability, the Netherite Block Swapper is not only expensive to craft, but the Excavating enchantment can only be found in treasure chests and is not compatible with the Mending enchantment.

The models, textures, and abilities in this mod have been designed with vanilla in mind - nothing should feel overly overpowered or out-of-place. Additionally, the mod generates an extensive config file so you can adjust the balancing however you like! The model and texture of the Block Swappers is directly inspired from the Hammer of Gravity from Minecraft Dungeons.

✅ Features:

• Adds Block Swappers that swap placed blocks with ones from your other hand!
• Works both from main or off-hand, making cycling through blocks in your hotbar easy
• Swapping a block will copy all of its properties onto the new one
