StairCarver

Story time:

When I mine, I make it 2×2, because it’s easy and simple. But then coming back up the mine, I feel like I’m smacking my head with every step. So then I make it a block taller. But then going up and down feels like it takes forever. So I need to add stairs. Which means crafting stairs. And placing stairs. And ugh that one went in upside down. And guess what, placing these stairs makes the mine 2×2 again! So mine out the ceiling again…

None of this sounds conducive to actually finding those diamonds…

So enter: this mod!

Introducing a stair carver tool that mines blocks in the world directly into stairs!

The tool also allows you to rotate stairs with a right click, or flip stairs with a crouch click.

(Also featuring a slab carver that’s…the same thing, but slabs.)

But wait! Deepslate doesn’t have stairs!

It does now. 🙂

Datapack Friendly

Even better, this mod is datapack friendly for support for other mods that add stairs. Simply add a json file at data/yourmodid/stair_carver/carver. Your file should look like:

{
"mod": "yourmodid"
"block": "yourblockhere”
"stair": "yourstairblockhere"
"slab": "yourslabblockhere"
}

Ta-da!
