About the mod

Creative Block Replacer is a minimalistic mod which allows easy switching in between placing and replacing blocks in creative mode, speeding up the creative process.

Block replacing mode is toggled with the press of a button. By default it's I, but this can be changed in Options -> Controls. When enabled, right-clicking a block replaces it with the block in your hand. The new block keeps the rotation of the old one, so stairs replaced by other stairs keep facing the same way.

The keybind requires the mod on both the server and the client. Players without the mod on their client can toggle it by sneaking three times while standing still, or via the /cbr command. Sneaking can be enabled for players with the mod as well in the config.
