Update! See Building Gadgets 2
Sometimes, building large structures can be a little tedious, and take a lot of effort. Not all of us are great builders you know!
Dire's Building Gadgets aims to make building a little bit easier. At this time there are four tools, and they are described below. Alternatively, watch the following mod spotlight for instructions!
As of Minecraft 1.20.1 this version of Building Gadget (Building Gadgets 1) is officially the 'Legacy' version of Building Gadgets. I will continue to update the mod for the Minecraft versions we already support but this mod will not be ported to Minecraft 1.20.1 or higher.
I'm glad you've asked! Go and download Building Gadgets 2! It's the same mod but with a bunch of new and awesome features built on a brand-new codebase. It's just better!
We've been officially supporting Building Gadgets 1 since Minecraft 1.12... That's... (checks notes) 6 years! 6 years of updates, bug fixes, feature requests and Minecraft updates. After such a long time, code can become overcomplicated, messy and hard to maintain. When this happens, it's best to start again. After some consideration, we opted to start a new Github Repo and start from a truly clean state.
One final note, I would like to thank of all of our contributors to Building Gadgets 1. You've all helped the mod stay updated, feature rich and ever-growing. This mod is vastly different to how it was back in 1.12 and our contributors are to thank for that!
To see how to use Dire's Building Gadgets refer to our Wiki which has been recently updated to be inline with the mod as of 1.16.5. Please feel free to make feature requests to add more info to our wiki. We're always trying to improve.
