• Clear block: Click the red ‘x’ to remove that block from the active pool.

• Toggle HUD: Shows a live update GUI of the amount of found blocks.
• Submit button: Click to start the scan.

Note to player:

• If you notice “jumping” issues with the tracer lines, turn off View Bobbing in settings (Options → Accessibility Settings → View Bobbing: Off)
• If you run into display problems on Wayland with Forge or Neoforge, run your Minecraft instance with X11.
• If you want to request me to make a release for a different Minecraft version, or if there are any issues, suggestions, please add them to the GitHub https://github.com/echen0719/block-finder/issues or https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeA5xHOVSt4gOofTIGXKj6x84aETpXDe4h4o3GRChpovcCMpg/viewform so I can improve this mod (with a label please).
