NOP items
by endokatz
NOP items is a Fabric utility that adds a set of creative-only wands, brushes and tools, inspired by the coloured tools of a well-known world editor.
What it does
NOP items bundles a collection of wand and brush items with few uses in survival play. The tools cover selection, navigation, colour and the Litematica workflow, plus a rainbow brush and a number of wands taken from other mods. Each item can be bound to a key so that brushes and wands are easier to reach. The items exist only in creative mode and cannot be crafted, so survival gameplay is left unchanged.
The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, with public source code and an issue tracker. Builds are published for Fabric only, for the two game versions 1.21.10 and 1.21.11, with 1.21.11.1.1.0 as the latest file.
Key features
Selection and navigation wands
A selection wand, a wand stick and a navigation wand cover the common tasks of marking areas and moving around them.
Coloured and rainbow brushes
Coloured tools and a rainbow brush are included, with larger brushes that can paint wider areas at once.
Litematica and other mod wands
A Litematica wand and a wand pearl provide items for that mod's workflow, alongside wand items from other mods.
Creative-only items
Every item is limited to creative mode and cannot be crafted, so it stays out of survival progression.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Building in creative
Builders working in creative mode can keep brushes and wands bound to keys while they place blocks.
Learning editing tools
Players new to area-based editing can see the coloured tools as in-game items, with a short description of each.
Who it’s for: Creative builders and server owners who run Litematica or similar editing tools on a Fabric server and want the related wands and brushes as items. Survival players gain nothing from it, because the items never appear in survival mode.

What the author says
This mod adds items that do nothing - 126 of them, in fact. Why would you want those? Simple - to bind them to worldedit brushes, wands, etc. They only exist in creative - they cannot be crafted and they do not craft - so worldedit will no longer interfere with your survival gameplay! This mod is heavily inspired by…
