Frequently asked questions

How do I activate the holographic preview?
Look at a functional block (like a repeater, observer, or piston) while holding it in your hand, and the hologram will display automatically showing you exactly how it will be oriented when placed. The preview updates in real-time as you move and rotate.
Can I use the distance measuring tool in Survival mode?
Yes, the Block Counting HUD works in both Survival and Creative modes. Look at any block and it will display the X, Y, Z coordinate differences and total Manhattan distance from your position.
What's the difference between Manhattan distance and regular distance?
Manhattan distance counts the total steps you'd need to walk along the X, Y, and Z axes separately (like navigating city blocks), while regular distance is the straight-line measurement through space. The mod shows you both values so you can plan builds accurately.
How many graffiti markers can I place?
You can place four different colored visual marks on blocks using the radial wheel menu. These markers are private to you and help you organize and plan your building projects.
