The mod disenables the delay between punches it seems, it's a little bit annoying with instantmine.

I fixed this in the newest version.

it would be cool to add something like this
when you are mining with a wooden pickaxe,you hit iron,and you hit it with wooden pickaxe it changes to stone pickaxe.
or you mining with stone pickaxe find diamonds and you have a iron pickaxe in your inventory,it changes to the iron one and mines.
nice mod

It already sort of does that. It mines smooth stone with a stone pick and then will switch to iron if you hit gold/diamond/whatever.

Just use it and report any bugs. You can test it w/o being an "official tester"

New version! Now you will switch back to the block you were holding before for easy building.

[JoBilly]

You really made something good. Thanks.

The axe must be in your quickbar, I mean the 9 items you can use. Also, with the new version, It will switch to an axe as you are mining the tree and switch back when you are done. This means that you might not see yourself using an axe.

New version! 0.7.1 Makes a few more relatively weak blocks like glass or cactus sword items again. It also makes it so you will always try to switch away from any tool that takes damage when you are mining very weak blocks like leaves or torches.

Found out why, one of my mods uses new blocks for dirt, gravel etc .... and your mod doesnt know it, any way to fix this ?

Sorry, but it is much easier to try to figure out your problem if you use correct spelling and punctuation.

Also, if you want me to try to debug it, please start from a fresh copy, and see if it glitches. Then find out which mod conflicts, because it is not my job to go through more than 10 mods one at a time, none of which I use.

Anyway, I fixed the crash but not the fact that it switches to a sword on gravel. This means I want to see the debug output. Grab a debug copy of the mod here: http://www.mediafire...84dtxk8rw24p4u6 Give me the debug output when you mine a normal block and when you mine gravel, as well as when you attack a mob such as a pig.

NOTE: You are using some mods from 1.7.3. DON'T DO THIS IN 1.8.1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nirahiel]

As I said I found the problem : one of the mods is replacing dirt and gravel with custom ones, like that treecapitator thing i think, and your mod doesnt know it.

I didn't, I'm not an idiot, i even code mods, it's just that the ModLoaderMP I have has a wrong version name, but i can assure you it's a 1.8.1 mod

Well, could you add a config file to specify custom block IDs, and custom tool IDs to use with (e.g. mods)

One thing that might fix this is that I changed it to completely operate off block IDs and not objects such as Block.gravel. Could you please test this for me? I don't know which mod conflicts and I'm not going to spend hours finding out.

Grab the second debug release here.

Thanks a lot for this. I've had disabled the other mod to use yours but now it looks like i can use both, that's what I'm gonna try

Also i've noticed something else, and I think this is your mod's fault :
When the mod is not enabled, i have a cobblestone in hand, destroying a dirt with it, and while i'm destroying it, i'm switching to free hand using a number key.
When the block is destroyed it switches back to the cobblestone.

TL;DR : The "switch back to what i was using" is active even with your mod disabled.
