✨ Features
🔍 Select Any Block
Sneak + RMB a block to set it as your source block. The wand remembers your selection and shows a clean actionbar message.
🔄 Replace Blocks with Flood‑Fill Logic
RMB a block to replace all connected blocks of the same type. The wand uses a safe, optimized flood‑fill algorithm that respects:
- block properties (facing, waterlogged, lit…)
- inventories (chests, barrels, furnaces…)
- NBT data (restored when compatible)
- tile entity transfers
- survival inventory limits
- durability and cooldowns
🎨 Property‑Preserving Replacement
Exchange Wands copy all shared blockstate properties automatically. Orientation, waterlogging, lit state, slab halves - everything transfers seamlessly.
📦 Inventory‑Aware
In survival mode:
- the wand only replaces blocks you have
- it removes one item per exchange
- it drops overflow items safely
🔧 Fully Configurable
- maximum exchange size
- bedrock protection
- sound & particle toggles
💎 Vanilla Tool Tiers
Each tier increases the maximum number of blocks you can exchange:
▶ Tiers
| Tier | Durability | Max. Exchanges | Enchantable | Repairable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wooden | 320 | 32 | X | X |
| Stone | 640 | 64 | X | X |
| Iron | 1280 | 128 | X | X |
| Golden | 2560 | 256 | X | X |
| Diamond | 5120 | 512 | X | X |
| Netherite | 10240 | 1024 | X | X |
