MiddleClickFix

by Meowphedrone

MiddleClickFix changes the middle mouse button so that pick-block works on entities in survival mode, as it already does in creative.

What it does

In vanilla Minecraft, middle-clicking an entity such as a spawn egg to pick it only works in creative mode, which leaves survival players without the shortcut. MiddleClickFix applies one mixin to make the same pick-block behavior available in survival, addressing the inconsistency reported in MC-65931. The fix is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it; servers run without it. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, with the source code and issue tracker publicly linked. Files are published for Fabric, across nine release versions 1.20 – 1.21.1.

Key features

  1. Survival entity pick

    Middle-clicking an entity in survival mode picks the matching spawn egg, as creative mode already allows.

  2. Single mixin fix

    The change is a single mixin, keeping the patch small and narrowly focused on the pick-block input.

  3. Creative and survival parity

    Pick-block results now match between the two game modes for entities, removing the inconsistency.

What the author says

Simple 1-mixin mod that fixes inconsistency between creative and survival mode pick-block feature. Middle click spawn egg picking on entities only ever works in creative mode, but not in survival Which i always found frustrating. So i fixed it.
