the rulerr

The Ruler is a Minecraft 1.21.1 weapon mod for NeoForge, built around the supplied 3D ruler scan. It turns an everyday ruler into a powerful, mode-switching weapon with sword and mace combat, a bright holy beam, wind charges, and a dramatic R ability.
A weapon with multiple roles

The Ruler has 10 attack damage, 1.3 attack speed, and 2,048 durability. It can accept enchantments for swords, axes, pickaxes, and maces. It also works as an axe and pickaxe for mining and breaks sword-efficient blocks quickly.

The item uses the provided textured model in-game and has an enchanted glint and epic rarity.

Sword Mode

In Sword Mode, right-click fires a thick, bright white beam toward the mob you’re aiming at, up to 32 blocks away. The beam deals 10 damage and can knock the target back. The slash effect is reserved for the R ability.

Mace Mode

Crouch and right-click to switch modes. In Mace Mode, falling attacks use Minecraft’s mace smash behavior. While holding the Ruler in this mode, you take no fall damage.

Right-click launches three wind charges and gives you a strong upward boost. If a mob is close to your aim, the attack can hit and knock it back.

The R ability

Press R to unleash a sweeping slash and shockwave. It strikes the mob you’re aiming at up to 32 blocks away. The attack is lethal. The Ruler does not require Physics Mod, though Physics Mod may provide a fracture effect when configured.

Crafting and advancement
The Ruler is crafted with three iron blocks in a horizontal line. Its recipe unlocks in the recipe book when you obtain an iron block. Obtaining the Ruler also grants the The Finest Steel advancement, whose hover description reads: “one of the most finest steel”.

Multiplayer
The Ruler is a client-and-server mod. In multiplayer, the server and each player joining need the mod installed. In single-player, just install it in your NeoForge 1.21.1 instance.
