About this project

What does AutoEquipTool add?

THIS MOD REQUIRES ANOTHER AUTHORS API, DOWNLOAD HERE.

This is simply me uploading a SLIGHTLY changed version of Thebombzen's AutoSwitch mod.

My one change is this: The switching no longer cares about if it will use durability. This means if you start breaking grass, dirt, beds, etc. with a sword it won't switch a different hand.

My reasoning? It was really annoying to have my sword out, break a block that needs a pick (autoswitches for that) then break a block that DOESN'T need a pick, so then it would switch to the empty hand right next to the sword instead of staying holding the sword. However, that block I just broke with the AutoSwitch pick would go in my inventory, right into the slot I'm currently using to break a non-tool block and the break time would be reset. Was annoying enough for me to get his source code, comment out the check, and recompile it.

What the mod actually does if it wasn't obvious is it makes you auto-switch to whatever tool is best for what you start hitting. There is configurations in the mod options menu.

Uploading it here just in case anyone else would like this slight QoL change, and because he doesn't have it on Curse. (Don't worry I checked the license beforehand, I'm good.)
