Replacement tool for creative building (Mod for Minetest)

This tool is helpful for creative purposes (i.e. build a wall and "paint" windows into it). It replaces nodes with a previously selected other type of node (i.e. places said windows into a brick wall).

Crafting

Availability of recipes can be configured with server settings. Basic replacer:

      | chest       |               | gold ingot |
      |             | mese fragment |            |
      | steel ingot |               | chest      |

Or /giveme replacer:replacer

Technic replacer as upgrade to basic tool:

      | replacer:replacer | green energy crystal |        |
      |                   |                      |        |
      |                   |                      |        |

Or /giveme replacer:replacer_technic

Technic replacer directly crafted:

      | chest       | green energy crystal | gold ingot |
      |             | mese fragment        |            |
      | steel ingot |                      | chest      |

Or /giveme replacer:replacer_technic

Usage

Sneak-right-click on a node of which type you want to replace other nodes with. Left-click (normal usage) on any nodes you want to replace with that type. Right-click to place a node of that type onto clicked node.

When in creative mode, the node will just be replaced. Your inventory will not be changed.

When not in creative mode, digging will be simulated and you will get what was there. In return, the replacement node will be taken from your inventory.

If technic mod is installed, modes are available and use depletes charge. This is true for users without "give" privs and also on servers not running in creative mode.

Modes

Special-right-click on a node or special-left-click anywhere to change the mode. Single-mode does not need any charge. The other modes do.

Inspection tool

The third tool included in this mod is the inspector.

Crafting:

      | torch |      |     |
      | stick |      |     |
      |       |      |     |

Just wield it and click on any node or entity you want to know more about. A limited craft-guide is included.
