Rotation Locker: Relocked

by TPSkeleton

Rotation Locker: Relocked lets players lock block rotation with a keybind so placed blocks keep their facing while building.

FabricClient and serverCC0 1.0 UniversalOpen source1.16.5 – 26.3

What it does

A keybind locks block rotation during placement, so a block keeps the orientation it was given instead of turning with each click. The mod is a fork of Beefox, brought back so a survival world could keep using it. Fabric API is required. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files target 1.16.5 – 26.3 on Fabric, and the code is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which makes it open source.

Key features

  1. Keybind rotation lock

    A keybind turns rotation locking on and off while a player places blocks.

  2. Fixed placement orientation

    Blocks placed with the lock active keep the facing they were given, which helps with repetitive builds.

  3. Revived fork

    The mod restores a Beefox fork for later versions after the original was no longer maintained.

What the author says

The original mod really helped me out with something in my survival world so I wanted to bring this mod back to later versions. I doubt I will port this to any versions earlier than 1.16 or to a different mod loader but if I get super bored maybe it will happen.
