Geomancer's Slate

Geomancer's Slate

> "Turn mining rubble into infinite architectural potential."
> A high-performance, diegetic Minecraft mod for Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge supporting Minecraft 1.20.1 through 1.26.3+

🧭 Overview

Tired of having your inventory clogged with endless stacks of Cobblestone, Deepslate, Granite, Diorite, Andesite, and Dirt while exploring massive underground caves? 

Geomancer's Slate solves this forever. Instead of cluttering your bag with dozens of separate item stacks, the Slate acts as a mystical, portable matter compactor that absorbs raw mining debris directly into concentrated Earth Mass. 

When it's time to build, simply aim and place: the Slate reconstructs and projects solid blocks right back into the world — and higher tiers even cut slabs, stairs, and walls on the fly!

✨ Key Features

* 🪨 Automatic Debris Absorption: Picked-up stone and earth blocks automatically compress into Earth Mass inside your Slate without taking up inventory slots.
* 🏗️ Instant Block Projection: Right-click with your Slate to instantly place full blocks back into the world, consuming 1 Earth Mass per block.
* ⚡ On-The-Fly Stonecutter: Tier 3 (Abyssal Slate) unlocks instant architectural shaping — place Slabs, Stairs, and Walls directly without placing a physical stonecutter table!
* 🔘 Toggleable Filtering: Need normal cobblestone items for crafting? Press **Shift + Right-Click in the air** to instantly toggle absorption on or off.
* 🔄 Radial Selection & Hotkey: Press "V" to open the quick block selection wheel or right-click the air to cycle between unlocked block types.
* ⚙️ Fully Configurable: Easily tweak capacities, audio feedback, hotbar restrictions, and particles in "config/geomancers_slate.properties".
* 🛡️ Lag-Free & Fail-Safe: Written with lightweight, vanilla-friendly event hooks that ensure zero TPS drop and zero world corruption.
