Accurate Block Placement Reborn
by Kaddicus
With Accurate Block Placement Reborn, a held use key places a block each time the crosshair moves onto a new block, with no need to time the clicks.
What it does
Holding the use key while aiming at a fresh block places it automatically, regardless of how quickly the player moves the crosshair. The timing that experienced players otherwise practice for rapid placement is handled by the client instead. Each newly targeted block receives one placement, so repeated clicks on the same spot do not stack.
The mod is a client-side addition for Fabric, so only the player's game needs it and servers can run without it. Fabric API is required, while Cloth Config API and Mod Menu are optional. Files are published for Fabric across 29 release versions, 1.19 – 26.3, and snapshot builds are published as well. The code is under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Automatic placement on hold
Holding the use key places blocks without any click timing, as the crosshair reaches each new block.
Movement-independent placing
Placement keeps pace with fast movement, so building lines and walls does not depend on the player's speed.
Single placement per target
A block is placed once per targeted position, which avoids stacking repeated placements on one spot.
Quick building in creative
The effect is similar to haste on mining, but applied to placing blocks, which suits creative building.
