✨ 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

🎵 Polished Player Feedback

Exchange Wands include:

  • selection sounds
  • exchange sounds
  • block‑themed placement/break audio
  • particle effects for selection and replacement All effects can be toggled in the config.

🧩 Compatibility

Exchange Wands work with:

  • all vanilla blocks
  • modded blocks that follow standard blockstate rules
  • inventories and tile entities

📦 Lightweight & Server‑Friendly

No mixins that modify vanilla behavior. No worldgen. No performance impact.

Just clean, deterministic block replacement.

🛠️ Perfect for Builders

Whether you are:

  • upgrading your base
  • replacing floors
  • fixing walls
  • terraforming
  • or building megastructures

Exchange Wands make block replacement effortless.

This mod was originally developed for Minecraft 1.20.1. I am gradually migrating it to newer versions, ensuring each update is stable, polished, and fully adapted to the latest APIs.
