Hiratools
by Hita-haru
Hiratools lets a held tool send and receive redstone signals wirelessly between two points, without wires.
What it does
The mod is a single tool built for wireless redstone. A player right-clicks a receiver while holding the item to link it, and then uses the tool to switch the linked receiver on or off from a distance. Sneaking while right-clicking removes the link again, so one tool can be reassigned to another receiver as needed.
Hiratools is published for Fabric only, with a single version: 1.21.1. The server and every player need the mod installed. The author states the license as Creative Commons Attribution 4.0, which is not an open source license. Source code, an issue tracker and a wiki are all linked from the project.
Key features
Wireless transmission
The tool sends redstone signals to a linked receiver without any wire or relay between the two points.
Toggling a receiver
Right-clicking a receiver while holding the tool switches its linked output on or off.
Removing a link
Sneaking and right-clicking unlinks a receiver, so the tool can be bound to a different one.
Receiving signals
A receiver takes the signal from the tool and passes it on as redstone power at its location.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Remote door or gate control
A player can open or close a distant door, gate or piston contraption with the tool instead of running a line of redstone.
Long-distance machine switching
Farms or builds spread across a large area can be turned on and off from one spot by linking each receiver in turn.
Who it’s for: Players who build redstone contraptions in survival or creative worlds, and server owners who want remote switches for shared builds. Both sides need the mod installed.
How it compares
Wireless Redstone Signals is open source under the MIT License, targets Fabric for 1.21.4 – 26.3, and runs on client and server. Simple Wireless Redstone is not open source, is released under Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0, covers 1.21.10 – 1.21.11, and also runs on client and server. Redstone Signal Bind Wand is open source under the MIT License and is built for 1.20.1, so it suits an older version than Hiratools.
