Buildify

Buildify offers a collection of tools primarily focused on builders in Minecraft, while also including some useful features for survival mode. Most features can be enabled or disabled through configuration files.

Main Features

Hammer and Nails

The hammer allows players to cycle through all block properties with left click and change various states with right click. To craft this tool at a crafting table, you'll need: 1 iron ingot, 1 stick, and 1 leather.

In creative mode, the hammer works for free, while in survival mode each use requires nails. Nails are crafted from 2 iron ingots, yielding 10 units.

Quick Inventory Row Swapping

Special sliders allow moving entire inventory rows in survival mode. This is particularly convenient for builders who can place different block sets on separate rows and quickly switch them to the hotbar. This feature can be disabled in the buildify-client.toml file.

Inventory and Chest Sorting

Another solution for organizing inventory contents. Sorting buttons allow arranging items by category (based on custom creative tabs) or alphabetically. This feature can also be disabled in buildify-client.toml.

Custom Creative Inventory (Creative Mode Only)

The creative mode inventory has been completely redesigned! Special tabs have been created that sort blocks in a more builder-friendly way. Mod developers and players can add compatibility with new mods by simply adding tags to _buildify/tags/items/creative_tabs/tag_name. Blocks from several popular mods are already included, and we encourage developers to add these tags to their projects. The feature can be disabled in buildify-common.toml.

Block Copying (Creative Mode Only)

The block copying feature allows exact copying of the target block along with all its current states. By default, CTRL+Middle Click is used, but another hotkey can be assigned (B). This is very useful when creating long roofs, stairs, and other structures.

Reach Distance Modifier (Creative Mode Only)

The configurable key (N) allows changing interaction distance in creative mode. This is especially convenient for building, allowing placement and breaking of blocks from any distance. The maximum distance is configurable in buildify-common.toml. Simply aim at the desired block and press N - the current distance will be displayed on screen.

Block Picker (Creative Mode Only)

The mod's main feature - the block picker, which simplifies selecting all related blocks to the one you're holding. Default block families are used, but when compatible mods are installed (such as Caliber Mod), a wide range of block shapes of the same type is displayed through a convenient radial menu. Press V while holding any block in creative mode.

The block picker was inspired by Conquest Reforged but is now available to everyone and easily adaptable for other mods. Players can also customize their own lists through datapacks.
