Olafs Relatively Placed Blocks Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I start placing multiple items in one block space?
Place your first small decorative item normally on a block surface. Then look toward a different corner or side of that same block space and right-click with another small item while holding it. The mod will shift the items apart based on where you're facing.
What blocks work with this mod?
Vanilla small decorative blocks like lanterns, flower pots, candles, chains, fences, glass panes, iron bars, and heavy cores all work. The mod also automatically supports decorative blocks from other mods as long as they're small enough to fit.
Can I fit more than two items in one space?
Yes, you can fit between two and four small items in a single block space depending on their size. The mod measures each item's dimensions to determine how many can fit together.
How do I remove just one item from a cluster without breaking all of them?
Left-click on the specific item you want to remove from the group. Each item in the cluster can be broken individually without affecting the others.
Does the direction I'm facing matter when placing items?
Yes, the mod shifts items to the side based on which direction you're facing when you place them. This lets you control which corner or edge of the block space each item occupies.
Can I use this mod on a multiplayer server?
Yes, the mod works on both single-player worlds and multiplayer servers. All players will see the same clustered items in the same positions.
What if I place an item in a space that's already full?
If you try to place an item in a block space that already has the maximum number of items, the placement will fail and you'll keep the item in your hand.
Do I need to sneak or crouch to place items in clusters?
No, you place items normally by right-clicking. The mod doesn't require sneaking or any special key combinations.
Will this mod cause lag if I cluster lots of items together?
The mod is designed to be lightweight since it fits multiple items into single block spaces rather than creating extra entities. Performance impact should be minimal even with many decorated areas.
Can I cluster items that are different sizes together?
Yes, the mod measures each item individually, so you can mix different sized decorative blocks in the same space as long as they all fit within the available room.
