Mini Tools

Crafting a mini version of a tool uses fewer materials and gives the player a short-lived tool with much lower durability than its full-size counterpart. Stone and iron mini pickaxes each grant the vanilla advancement that the matching full-size pickaxe would give, and crafting any mini tool grants a new custom advancement. Four new ingredients support these recipes, and three new lantern variants can be crafted with gold nuggets and an emerald or diamond, with matching soul lantern variants.

The mod adds a throwable rock that interacts with the world in several ways. Placing it on the ground puts a rock block down where the throw lands, unless the spot is invalid, in which case it drops as an item. A rock that hits an entity deals damage, and if it kills the player it shows a custom death message. A rock that hits a glass pane breaks it, and a rock that hits water skips across the surface. The Enderslayer Sword works like a normal diamond sword, except that right-clicking fires an ender pearl that teleports the player, and each shot uses a noticeable amount of durability.

Mini Tools runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for Fabric and Forge, with builds for 1.20.1 – 26.3 across eight release versions, and the latest Fabric file targets 26.3.
