Litematica Tool
by FinnDog_123
Litematica Tool gives Litematica its own item, a simple tool that replaces the plain stick used to open the Litematica menu.
What it does
Litematica normally opens its menu with a stick, and players press M to reach it. Litematica Tool adds a separate item that players can use in place of that stick, so the Litematica functions are reached through a dedicated tool. The mod requires Litematica to be installed alongside it.
The tool is built from a stick placed in the bottom left of a crafting grid with a plank in the top right, following the recipe the author gives. Installation has to be done on the client and on the server, since the environment is client and server. Files exist for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 32 release versions, 1.16 – 1.21.11, under the MIT License, and the project is open source.
