Current things in the mod:

  • Apply bonemeal on grass
  • Break blocks

  • Name entities with nametags

The Description Tag

This item allows you to give other items descriptions.

First you have to name the description tag in the anvil. The name you give it will later be the description of other items.

Some things to note when you set the name in the anvil:

  • Inserting '\n' will create a new line in the description
  • Adding a '+' at the beginning of the name will add the description to the existing one, without the plus it'll overwrite the description
  • Adding '++' at the beginning of the name will add the description to the last line of any existing descripition

Here's an image explaining how the formatting works:

 

Also unlike the Name Tag this item can be crafted.

The Poke Stick (Only in 1.10.2 and lower)

Extends your reach while held. Uses tools from your inventory to break blocks faster

The Redstone Clock

The Redstone Clock

Emits a redstone signal of a given length in a given delay.

Delay and length are provided in ticks by rightclicking. Can be rotated in all directions.

The Guide

Gives detailed information. You can hover over items and blocks to go to their entry.

All guide entries can be viewed in JEI

 

And that's it! The source code is available on GitHub.
