TorchTools
Warning: The mod is actively in development!
This mod allows using right-click with any tool to perform the "place" action with the block from the next slot on your hotbar. The unique feature is that items can chain right-clicks across the entire hotbar! If you have multiple tools in a row, you'll be able to access blocks at the end of the tool chain.
How it works
The mod is mostly client-side! The basic right-click functionality with tools currently works on any server, regardless of whether the mod is installed on the server.
Hotbar slots: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]
Slots affected by right-click: [9] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]
Development history
This mod was remade after Tinkers Construct removed the off-hand functionality in the new 3.0 version for large tools. The irony is that the original idea for this mod came from Tinkers Construct, and 8 years later we're bringing this functionality back. The last update to the original mod was about 6 years ago specifically because of this small change.
What does the mod do?
Place blocks and torches with any tool that doesn't have its own right-click action! (Unfortunately, hoes and swords are not supported)
