Simple AutoTool

# Simple AutoTool Mod

A client-side Minecraft Fabric mod for version 1.21.4 that automatically switches to the best tool in your inventory when mining blocks.

## Features

- **Automatic Tool Switching**: Detects the block you're targeting and automatically selects the most effective tool from your hotbar
- **Smart Detection**: Recognizes different block types and matches them with appropriate tools:
  - Pickaxe for stone, ores, and other hard blocks
  - Axe for wood and wooden materials
  - Shovel for dirt, sand, gravel, and similar blocks
  - Hoe for farmland and plant-based blocks
- **Manual Override**: Hold Shift (sneak) to disable auto-switching and maintain manual control
- **Toggle Functionality**: Press `R` (configurable) to enable/disable the mod with on-screen feedback
- **Client-Side Only**: Works on any server without requiring server-side installation
- **Hotbar Only**: Only switches between tools in your hotbar (slots 0-8)

## Installation

 **Download and Install**:
   - Download the latest release from the releases page
   - Place the `.jar` file in your `mods` folder
   - Launch Minecraft with the Fabric profile

## Usage

1. **Install the mod** and launch Minecraft
2. **Join any world** (singleplayer or multiplayer)
3. **Look at a block** you want to mine
4. The mod will **automatically switch** to the best tool in your hotbar
5. **Hold Shift** to temporarily disable auto-switching
6. **Press G** to toggle the mod on/off (you'll see a chat message confirming the status)

## Configuration

- **Toggle Key**: The default key to toggle the mod is `G`. You can change this in Minecraft's Controls settings under the "AutoTool" category.

## How It Works

1. **Block Detection**: The mod continuously monitors what block you're looking at
2. **Tool Analysis**: It checks all items in your hotbar and calculates their mining efficiency for the target block
3. **Smart Switching**: It switches to the tool with the highest mining speed multiplier
4. **Respect Player Intent**: It won't switch when you're sneaking, allowing for manual control

## Compatibility

- **Minecraft Version**: 1.21.4
- **Mod Loader**: Fabric
- **Side**: Client-side only
- **Server Compatibility**: Works on any server (Vanilla, Fabric, Paper, etc.)
- **Other Mods**: Should be compatible with most other mods

## Technical Details

- **Language**: Java 21
- **Framework**: Fabric API
- **Architecture**: Event-driven with client tick events

## Troubleshooting

**Mod not working?**
- Ensure you have Fabric Loader and Fabric API installed

- Verify the mod is enabled (press G to toggle)

**Tools not switching?**
- Make sure you're not sneaking (holding Shift)
