This section details the mods added to the course as well as how to use them.
Most of the mods we had you install were quality-of-life or performance-enhancing mods. However, two of them, Carpet mod and WorldEdit, will be quite useful for your projects.
Carpet mod essentially allows you to take complete control over how your game runs. Some useful commands are the following:
/carpet setDefault creativeNoClip true: Allows you to fly through blocks, which is SUPER useful for building large, complex redstone circuits.
I would enter this command immediately upon creating a new world.
/tick rate [number]: Allows you to change the tick rate/speed at which your game runs. Useful for testing circuits that take a while to run.
/tick freeze and /tick step [number]: Useful for debugging your redstone circuits
(yes, we even have a debugger in Minecraft).
/carpet creativeFlySpeed [number]: Allows you to adjust your creative flight speed.
WorldEdit allows you to build a LOT faster and saves a lot of pain (from experience). Some useful commands are:
//wand: Gives you a wand for area selection with left and right click.
//copy: Copies the selected area, relative to your position.
//paste: Pastes whatever is in your clipboard.
//set [block]: Fills the selected area with the specified block. If [block] is air, it removes all blocks in the area.
//stack [direction] [number]: Stacks the selected area relative to the direction you are facing.
[direction] can be up, down, back, left, right, forward for as many [number] times as you want.
This is SUPER useful—I absolutely crutch this command!
//undo and //redo: Self-explanatory.
//flip: Flips your clipboard based on the direction you are facing.
//rotate: Rotates the content of your clipboard.
I would get super familiar with using these commands, as they might be useful to you in your projects! :)
