Better Bridging

📖 About:

Better Bridging is a tiny mod that adds one new item: The Bridge Brace. With it, you can now place blocks in rows of 3, instead of one at a time, making building walls, floors and bridges far easier! With the Widening Enchantment, coming in two levels, you can expand the scope of the Bridge Brace further to a whopping 5, and then 7 blocks across!

To craft the Bridge Brace, simply place three planks of any variety diagonally in a Crafting Table, and voila! Then to rotate the row while using the Brace simply press the assigned hotkey, R by default, making placing from any orientation easy! Happy bridging!

✅ Features:

• Adds the Bridge Brace, an item that allows you to place columns of blocks when held in the off-hand!
• Fully configurable, by default places 3 blocks at a time
• Adds the Widening enchantment that increases the default width
• Widening is also fully configurable
• All placed blocks have the same orientation
• Column direction can be rotated using a configurable hotkey, R by default
• While holding the Bridge Brace, the block targeting box is replaced with a column preview
• Available on Forge and Neoforge, Fabric coming soon

🔧 Configuration:

• Default bridging width
• Toggling Widening enchantment on/off
• Toggling sources of Widening on/off (enchanting, trading, loot)
