WARNING: NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BANS FROM SEVERS!

Very much a WIP, I have a few plans but wanted to get this out there to see what the interest was like. Will also be backported to 1.16.5 & 1.17.1 once I figure out everything I want to do with it. Please use the Issues tracker for broken interactions and other support issues.

Right click with any tool to use the "place" action with the next slot in your hotbar. Items will also chain right clicks across the hotbar! So if you have multiple tools in a line you can still accesses the blocks at the end of the tool chain!

 

This mod is mostly client side! Basic right clicking with tools currently works in any server if the mod is on the server or not.

How it works:

[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] <-- Hotbar slots

[9] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]      <-- What slot is affected by the right click.



I remade this mod because Tinkers Construct removed the off hand in the new 3.0 version (Just happens that this is 3.0 for us too!) for the "Big" tools and required an upgrade for it. Funny that the original idea for this mod came from Tinkers Construct and here we are full circle some 8 years latter (at the time of writing, first commit was August 1 2014) remaking the mod to bring back this feature because of Tinkers. The last update for this mod was ~6 years ago (2,295 days to be exact at the time of writing) all because of this tiny change. It's somewhat surreal to me that this is all happening so many years later, If you recognize this mod, hope life has treated you well. Also Thanks Dries for making this all those years ago. ~ Clay


Old 1.7.10 description, frozen in time forever, Typos and all.

Right click with any tool to use the "place" action with the next slot in your hotbar.
Except on the first slot, there the last slot is used. (Read further down for more information

You MUST have D3 Core to use our mods! <-- Click to get!

What it do?

Place Blocks/Torches with any tool that does not have a right click! (Sorry Hoes and Swords!)

New things it adds!

Right click with a tool and a block next to it to find out! (Or read below :P)

The way this mod works is quite simple if you know how Tinkers Construct works. If not heres a summary!

[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] <-- Hotbar slots

[9] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]      <-- What slot is affected by the right click.

Something borked?
