Simplebuilding
Simplebuilding gives Fabric players construction and mining tools, from wands and sledgehammers to a chisel and a range planner, for building and digging on a larger scale.
What it does
The tools target building work: a wand places blocks across a large area, a sledgehammer mines an area with a configurable depth, and a chisel with a spatula cycles a block through its in-world variants with one action. An octant planner shows the range and shape of a placement, with overlays on the HUD. Items for keeping stacks in order help with inventory flow, and the progression runs through an endgame tier made of Enderite, Astralit and Nihilith.
The mod is built around survival play, so the tools are tuned to speed up building and digging without removing the usual cost of resources. Its settings cover world integration, the range of the constructors and the depth of area mining, and a drawer and a vein miner add more storage and mining options. The mod needs Cloth Config API and Fabric API, and Mod Menu adds an optional settings screen. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files cover 1.21.10 and 1.21.11 for Fabric, under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the source code is public.
