Java CI GitHub Pages Modrinth Downloads minepkg CurseForge Downloads Planet Minecraft

Switch your currently held item for an effective item when clicking on a block.

Usage

  • Click on a block or entity to switch to the appropriate item
    • Press Sneak to prevent the switch from happening
    • Press Sprint to use the most effective item

Switcheroo will use the least effective tool that's still effective to break blocks and the most damaging item per seconds to attack entities.

[1.0.0] v1.0.0 by Nato Boram on Sep 26, 2021
Download
## [1.0.0] - 2021-01-28

First public release.

The switcheroo technically works, but it's kinda annoying and awkward to use. Please check the [issues](https://gitlab.com/NatoBoram/fabric-switcheroo/issues) if you want to contribute. Since it's my first Fabric project and my first client-side mod, there's a few things I don't really know how to do.
