About this project
What does Placement Utilities add?
Are you one of the people using dirt as temporary blocks for building? Stop doing that! This mod adds instantly breakable temporary blocks as well as upgrades of them. The mod also adds a tool called Angel Wand, which lets you place many blocks in midair and rotate them to make your next build less painful.

This GIF is showing how the Angel Wand works
A list of things the mod adds (you can find these descriptions in-game while hovering over the item and pressing CTRL + SHIFT):
- Temporary Block (Default): A block that you can walk through and break instantly. It's used to place other blocks while building.
- Temporary Block (Returning): Just like a default Temporary Block, but it will go straight into your inventory after breaking.
- Temporary Block (Self Destructing): Just like a default Temporary Block, but it automatically disappears after 10 seconds (alternatively disappears on Random Tick if you configure it that way). Only used by the Temporary Wand.
- Temporary Wand: Right click to place a self-destructing Temporary Block. Unlimited uses
- Temporary Block (Angel): Just like a returning Temporary Block, but you can place it midair.
- Angel Wand: While holding in your offhand, you can place many blocks as if they were angel Temporary Blocks. The distance you place the block is changeable. Upgradeable
- Angel Add-on: Break: An add-on for the Angel Wand to remove the Mining Fatigue effect while holding an Angel Wand in your offhand.
- Angel Add-on: Range: An add-on for the Angel Wand to increase its max reach by 1 Block each (max amount is configurable).
- Angel Add-on: Rotate: An add-on for the Angel Wand to add a feature to rotate blocks you are looking at.
