๐ช Builders Wand & Symmetry Wand โ Your Ultimate Building Companions for Hytale
Tired of placing blocks one by one or building symmetrical structures manually? Our dual-wand system revolutionizes construction in Hytale! Build faster with the Builders Wand and create perfect symmetrical designs with the Symmetry Wand - two powerful tools for builders, terraformers, and creative minds who value speed, precision, and artistic control.
It is compatible with the Simple Claims!
โจ Core Features & Highlights
๐ Builders Wand: Blazing Fast Construction
- Place Multiple Blocks Instantly: Click on a block face to automatically place blocks in all connected surfaces of the same type.
- 11 Powerful Tiers: Progress from Copper (8 blocks) up to legendary Mithril (256 blocks). Each tier offers increased capacity and prestige.
- Smart Block Detection: The wand intelligently detects connected blocks in the plane you're targeting, creating perfect walls, floors, and ceilings effortlessly.
๐ Symmetry Wand: Perfect Mirror Building
- Intelligent Mirror Placement: Place blocks symmetrically around a center point - every placement is mirrored automatically!
- Configurable Symmetry: Set your symmetry center and multiplier (1-8x) to create complex symmetrical patterns.
- Works With Selected Blocks: Uses the same block selection system as Builders Wand for consistent workflow.
- No Tier Limitations: One powerful wand that grows with your building skills!
๐ง Intelligent Inventory & Selection System
- Shared Block Selection: Both wands use the same personal block palette. Configure once, use everywhere!
- Multi-Block Selection: Use commands to create a personal palette of blocks. The wands will smartly distribute all selected blocks from your inventory during placement.
- Survival & Creative Ready: Works seamlessly in both modes. In survival, consumes items from your inventory and tool durability.
- Hotbar Merge: Use
/wandmerge to instantly add every block from your hotbar (except wands) to your selection.
โฎ๏ธ Robust Undo & Control
- Full Undo System: Made a mistake? Sneak + Right-Click to undo your last placement, recovering blocks in survival mode (works on both wands!).
- Configurable History: Adjust how many actions are saved per player (from 1 to 50) via the config file.
- Separate Undo Stacks: Each wand maintains its own undo history for precise control.
โ๏ธ Deep Customization
- Fully Configurable Tiers: Server admins can modify block limits, allowed/denied blocks, replaceable blocks, and durability settings for every wand tier.
- Symmetry Configuration: Customize maximum range (10-500 blocks) and multiplier limits (1-20x) to suit your server's needs.
- Granular Permissions: Control exactly which blocks can be placed or replaced by each wand, perfect for managing game balance and economy.
๐ฎ How to Use
Builders Wand - Basic Usage:
- Hold the Builders Wand in your hand.
- Look at the face of a block you want to build from.
- A blue particle preview will show where blocks will be placed.
- Right-Click to place all previewed blocks instantly!
- Sneak + Right-Click to undo the last placement.
Symmetry Wand - Basic Usage:
- Set Your Center: Use
/symmetrypos to set your symmetry center point.
- Configure Multiplier: Use
/symmetrysize [1-8] to set how many times blocks are mirrored.
- Hold the Symmetry Wand and look at where you want to build.
- Right-Click to place blocks - they automatically appear at mirrored positions!
- Sneak + Right-Click to undo symmetrical placements.
Shared Block Selection Commands:
/wandselect (/ws) โ Add the block you're holding to your personal selection list (works for both wands).
/wandmerge (/wm) โ Automatically add all unique blocks from your hotbar to your selection (ignores wands).
/wandclear (/wc) โ Clear your personal block selection. Wands will then use the block you're looking at.
Symmetry Wand Commands:
/symmetrypos (/sympos) โ Set your current position as the symmetry center.
/symmetrysize [1-8] (/symsize) โ Set how many times blocks are mirrored (1x to 8x).
- Use
/symmetrysize 0 to clear your symmetry multiplier.
โ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Does it work with SimpleClaims?
A: Yes! Both wands automatically respect SimpleClaims protection. You can only build in areas where you have permission.
Q: Does it work with all blocks?
A: Yes, except for blocks explicitly denied in the config (like Bedrock by default). Admins have full control.
Q: How does it handle my inventory?
A: In survival mode, it counts the blocks in your inventory and will not place more than you have. It removes the correct items after placement.
Q: Can I use multiple block types with Symmetry Wand?
A: Yes! The Symmetry Wand uses the same block selection system as Builders Wand. Select multiple blocks and they'll be used in your symmetrical builds.
Q: How far can symmetry work?
A: By default up to 200 blocks from center (configurable up to 500). Perfect for large builds!
Q: What happens if I don't set a symmetry center?
A: The Symmetry Wand will remind you to set one with /symmetrypos before you can use it.
Q: Is it server-friendly?
A: Absolutely. The core logic runs on efficient async threads, and particle previews are client-side. Designed for minimal server impact.
Q: How do I get the wands?
A: All wands are obtained through the Simple Artisans Workbench.
Q: Can I use both wands together?
A: Absolutely! Many builders use Symmetry Wand for the overall structure and Builders Wand for filling large areas quickly.
โ๏ธ Configuration & Setup
Our wands are built for server admins. Configuration is done via a clear config file with extensive options.
Key Configuration Options:
Builders Wand:
Wands: Define every tier's name, max blocks, denied blocks, replaceable blocks, durability usage, and undo history.
GlobalUndoHistory: Set the maximum number of undo steps saved per player (1-50).
Symmetry Wand:
SymmetryRange: Maximum distance from center (10-500 blocks, per tier).
MaxSymmetryMultiplier: Maximum mirror multiplier (1-20x, configurable globally and per tier).
- Uses the same block permission system as Builders Wand for consistency.
Example Configuration:
Wands:
- Tier: "copper"
MaxBlocks: 8
DeniedBlocks: ["Rock_Bedrock"]
ReplaceableBlocks: ["Plant_Grass_Sharp", "Plant_Grass_Wind"]
ConsumeDurability: true
UndoHistory: 5
- Tier: "mithril"
MaxBlocks: 256
DeniedBlocks: ["Rock_Bedrock"]
ReplaceableBlocks: ["Plant_Grass_Sharp", "Plant_Grass_Wind", "Water", "Lava"]
ConsumeDurability: false
UndoHistory: 10
๐๏ธ Building Tips & Tricks
Pro Builder Combinations:
- Rapid Symmetry: Use Symmetry Wand with multiplier 2 for perfect bilateral symmetry.
- Radial Designs: Set center, use multiplier 4 or 8 for circular/radial patterns.
- Fast Fills: Use Builders Wand to quickly fill symmetrical areas created with Symmetry Wand.
- Detail Work: Use lower multiplier (1-2) for detailed symmetrical decorations.
Workflow Example:
- Set symmetry center with
/symmetrypos
- Configure multiplier with
/symmetrysize 4
- Use Symmetry Wand to create the main symmetrical structure
- Switch to Builders Wand to fill large areas quickly
- Use undo on either wand as needed
- Adjust symmetry settings dynamically as your build evolves
