About this project
What does Drag Chisel Mode add?
Adds a new toolmode to chisels that lets you drag an area and place/remove blocks.
This mod was made to ease the pain of chiseling one pixel at a time.
1. Set the tool mode with the chisel held and pressing F by default
2. Hold a mouse button (left or right click) and drag over the area you want to edit
3. Release Left click (remove from area) or Right click (add to area). Can be inverted in config (Supports ConfigLib)
Starting your drag with left click will start the grid in the voxel, right click will put it ontop of it (also inverted in config)
You can select what material to place by adding the material in a chisel's UI.
You can also drag across multiple chiseled blocks.
If you look at a block, sneak/crouch, and right click (do not drag), it will turn the block you are looking at into a chiseled block.
Undo / redo
- while holding a chisel with the tool mode selected,Ctrl+Z undo, Ctrl+Y redo (rebindable in Settings → Controls).
- persists through restarts (saved per map on client, probably even recover from crashes?)
Config
Supports Config Lib
- maxVoxelsPerAxis - Max drag distance of the grid
- undoHistoryLength - Max undo history
- undoRangeBlocks - Range safety check for undoing/redoing chisels,
- invertButtons - Inverts the click/release action
/dragchisel show current values (requires controlserver permission)
/dragchisel blockspertick <n> chiselled blocks applied per tick
/dragchisel maxqueued <n> max blocks to chisel queue
The drag tool mode is injected with Harmony so hopefully it should work with other chisel mods.
Supports QP Chisel Tools v1.17.2
