Auto Scroll Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I set up a keybind for Auto Scroll?
Open your Controls settings, find the Auto Scroll keybind (it will be unassigned by default), and click it to assign a key of your choice. Once assigned, you can press that key to activate automatic hotbar scrolling.
What blocks should I put in my hotbar for random detailing?
Place the blocks you want to randomly cycle through into consecutive hotbar slots—for example, stone, cobblestone, and mossy cobblestone in slots 1-3. When you hold Auto Scroll, it will cycle through only those slots.
Does Auto Scroll work while I'm placing blocks?
Yes, that's the main feature—hold down your place block button (right-click by default) while pressing your Auto Scroll keybind, and the mod will rapidly cycle through your hotbar slots as you place, creating random block patterns.
Can I control how fast Auto Scroll cycles through blocks?
The mod cycles at a fixed high speed designed for detailing work; you cannot adjust the scroll speed through settings, but the rapid cycling is intentional to speed up large projects.
Why isn't Auto Scroll working after I assigned a keybind?
Make sure you have multiple blocks in consecutive hotbar slots and that you're holding both your place block button and your Auto Scroll keybind at the same time; also verify the keybind isn't conflicting with another mod or game setting.
Does Auto Scroll work in Creative and Survival mode?
Yes, Auto Scroll functions in both Creative and Survival modes, making it useful for detailing builds regardless of your game mode.
Can I use Auto Scroll to cycle through tools or items, not just blocks?
Auto Scroll is designed specifically for block placement and hotbar cycling; it will cycle through any items in your hotbar, but the mod's intended use is for placing blocks randomly.
What happens if I only have one block type in my hotbar?
If you only have one block type, Auto Scroll will keep cycling to that same block, so you won't see any visual variation—you need at least two different block types for random detailing to work.
Does Auto Scroll cause lag or performance issues?
Auto Scroll is lightweight and should not cause noticeable performance impact, even during large detailing projects, since it only manages hotbar cycling.
Can I use Auto Scroll with other building mods?
Auto Scroll should be compatible with most building and utility mods since it only affects hotbar scrolling; however, if another mod also controls hotbar behavior, they may conflict.
