LittleTiles Mod — Guide

Getting Started

To begin building with LittleTiles, you will need a few essential tools. The core loop involves converting standard blocks into tiles, arranging them, and then "packaging" them into a functional structure.

  1. Craft a Little Hammer: This is your primary interaction tool.
  2. Craft a Little Chisel: Used for placing and removing individual tiles.
  3. Craft a Little Bag: Essential for storing the tiles you create.
  4. Set up a Little Workbench: This block is used to finalize your creations into items that can be placed and moved.

The Little Workbench

The Little Workbench is the heart of the mod's crafting system. While the Chisel allows you to place tiles manually, the Workbench is required to turn a collection of tiles into a "Structure."

How to Use the Workbench:

  1. Create a Recipe: Use a Little Recipe item to select your build in the world.
  2. Open Workbench: Place the Recipe in the top slot of the Workbench GUI.
  3. Supply Materials: Ensure your Little Bag contains the necessary blocks and dyes.
  4. Select Structure Type: Choose what the build should be (e.g., Door, Chair, Storage).
  5. Craft: The Workbench will consume the bits from your bag and produce a finished item.

Advanced Mechanics

Grid Sizes

Players can toggle between different grid sizes to control the precision of their building. Common sizes include: * 1x1: Standard Minecraft block. * 16x16: Matches standard texture resolution (256 tiles per block face). * 32x32: High detail (1,024 tiles per block face). * 64x64: Extreme detail (4,096 tiles per block face).

Shapes and Slopes

The Chisel tool supports multiple placement modes: * Box: Standard rectangular placement. * Sphere/Cylinder: Creates rounded structures automatically. * Slice (Slopes): Allows you to click two points to create a perfectly smooth diagonal slope at any angle.

Importing and Exporting

LittleTiles supports sharing designs through Little Blueprints. * Little Exporter: Copies a selected structure to your PC's clipboard as a text string. * Little Importer: Pastes a string from your clipboard onto a recipe, allowing you to replicate designs from other players or previous worlds.
