Socket Wrench
by stuin
Socket Wrench is a Fabric library that lets multi-tools act as universal wrenches for rotating blocks.
What it does
Socket Wrench provides a modular API in which a multi-tool can be registered as a universal wrench, so other mods can rely on one tool for rotating blocks. Blocks that share the same properties can be turned with it, including blocks from other mods. The mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it. Builds exist for Fabric across 1.17.1, 1.18.1 and 1.18.2, with 1.4.0 for 1.18.2 as the latest file, released under the MIT License as open source.
