Wooden Tools Variety
Wooden Tools Variety changes wooden tools so each one is made from a different wood type, including modded planks.
What it does
Wooden Tools Variety adds wooden tools for each wood type, based on the planks a player crafts with, and covers modded planks as well. Its recipes replace the vanilla wooden tool recipes entirely, so every tool is built from the planks chosen for it. Each wood type has its own efficiency and durability values, and some of them match the vanilla wooden tools.
Compatibility with some mods adds new wood types for tools. Biomes O' Plenty is the only optional dependency named by the author, and it extends the wood types available for tools. Fabric API is required on Fabric and is named as the required dependency for this mod. Wooden Tools Variety runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it, and it is published for Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21.1 under a custom license that is not open source.
Key features
Tools for each wood type
Wooden tools are added for each planks type, so a pickaxe, axe or shovel can come from any wood the player has.
Recipes based on planks
Tool recipes use the planks a player crafts with, so the wood chosen sets how the tool is made.
Modded wood types
Planks from other mods are included, extending the wood types beyond the vanilla set.
Varied efficiency and durability
Each wood type has its own efficiency and durability, with some values matching the vanilla wooden tools.
Biomes O' Plenty wood
With Biomes O' Plenty installed, the wood types from that mod become available for tools.
