The BuildersWand GUI provides an intuitive way to configure your wand's behavior. Access it by sneaking and left-clicking while holding your wand.
To open the wand settings GUI:
Hold your wand in your hand
Press and hold the sneak key (Shift by default)
Left-click while sneaking
The settings menu will appear
The GUI shows your current wand settings and allows you to modify them without using commands.
The settings GUI is organized into a 3x9 grid with specific buttons in designated slots:
GRASS_BLOCK (Slot 11): Mode button - Switch between place and break modes
STICK (Slot 12): Line mode button - Toggle line mode
REDSTONE_DUST (Slot 13): Particles button - Toggle visual feedback effects
COMPASS (Slot 14): Distance button - Adjust building range
CHEST (Slot 15): Storage button - Access wand storage
The mode button allows you to switch between different wand modes.
Place Mode: The default mode for building structures. The wand extends existing patterns by placing blocks in adjacent empty spaces.
Break Mode: Used for removing blocks. The wand identifies and removes connected blocks of the same type.
Click the mode button to cycle through available modes
The button will update to show the current mode
Some wands may only support certain modes depending on their configuration
Not all wands support all modes. Basic wands might only support place mode, while advanced wands support both place and break modes. If a mode isn't available, clicking the mode button will show an error message.
The distance button controls how far the wand can build from your starting point.
The distance setting ranges from 1 to the wand's maximum range. Higher distances allow you to affect larger areas, but they also consume more resources and may cause performance issues.
Click the distance button to cycle through available distances
The button shows your current distance and maximum range (defined in your wand's configuration)
Available distances typically increase in increments (1, 2, 4, 8, etc.)
Small distances (1-4): Good for detailed work and precise control Medium distances (4-8): Balanced for most building projects Large distances (8+): Useful for large-scale projects but may cause lag
The particles button controls the visual feedback system.
When enabled, particles show you exactly what the wand will affect before you commit to the action. This helps prevent mistakes and ensures you're building what you intended.
Click the particles button to toggle particles on/off
When enabled, you'll see particle effects when looking at blocks
When disabled, no visual feedback is shown
Different wands may use different particle types:
Flame particles: Default for all wands
Custom particles: Some wands may use unique particle effects
The storage button opens the wand's built-in storage system.
The storage system allows you to store multiple block types directly in your wand. This is particularly useful for complex projects that require different materials.
Click the storage button to open the storage interface
The storage interface shows all stored block types
Click on stored blocks to use them or manage your storage
Adding Blocks: Place blocks in the storage interface to add them to your wand's storage.
Removing Blocks: Click on stored blocks to remove them from storage.
Storage Limits: Each wand has a maximum storage size that determines how many different block types can be stored.
Check Permissions: Make sure you have the required permissions to use the GUI.
Verify Wand: Ensure you're holding a valid BuildersWand.
Check Sneak Key: Make sure you're properly sneaking when left-clicking.
Mode Restrictions: Some wands may not support all modes.
Permission Issues: You may not have permission to change certain settings.
Wand Configuration: The wand may not have certain features enabled.
