How to Fix Hammer Time 2D Tools Not Working

If you have loaded the Hammer Time 2D Addon into your world but the custom recipes do not show up in the crafting table, or the tools only break one block at a time instead of a 3x3 area, your world is likely missing the required Experimental Settings.

Enabling Experimental Settings on a New World

1. From the main menu, click Play and select Create New World.

2. Activate the Hammer Time 2D Addon in both the Resource Packs and Behavior Packs tabs.

3. Navigate to the Experiments (or Game) tab on the left menu.

4. Toggle the Experimental Settings switches to the On position.

5. Confirm the experimental prompt and create your world.

Fixing an Existing World

1. Save and quit to the main menu if you are currently in the world.

2. Click the Edit (pencil) icon next to your world's name.

3. Scroll down to the Experiments section in the world settings.

4. Turn on the Experimental Settings toggles. (The game may create a backup copy of your world automatically).

5. Load back into the world and test a Hammer, Shovel, Axe, or Sword to verify that the 3x3 digging, instant tree chopping, and area damage features are now active.
