MultiTools

Adds the Planner and tiered Pivelaxes to aid in building and mining. The Planner features automatic placement of placeable items filling a rectangular dimension, while Pivelaxes offer simultaneous and queued mining, and additionally a mining filter to suit any need.

Singleplayer and multiplayer-tested with local server.

The Planner is crafted at a workstation using 4 Map Fragments and 1 Gold Bar.
Tiered Pivelaxes require 1 pickaxe, 1 axe, and 1 shovel of the respective tier. The last tier Pivelaxe (hidden) requires 2 pickaxes of that tier.

The Planner:

• Click (or equivalent) in your inventory to open the container slot for the Planner.
  
• Place a stack of a placeable item (walls, tiles, buckets, 1x1 objects) into the Planner. NOTE: The Planner always keeps a single item in it unused, so make sure to put more than one!
  
• Click anywhere on the world to specify the first corner of the rectangle you want to fill.
  
• Click on the world the the other corner of the rectangle to be filled. Automatic placement starts.
  
• With the automatic placement process, come near the crosshair marks (often at the corners) to see the items placed!
  
• Do note that placement always begins at the corners of the rectangle you specify, and continues where the crosshairs are marked at.
  
• Click again to clear the targets. You can start to create another rectangle somewhere.

Pivelaxes:

• With a Pivelaxe held, a pane to the left of the screen allows you to filter what you can mine with the tool. (Filter settings are saved per tool!)
  
• Hover over a filter item to see what that filter corresponds to: it will highlight tiles on the world that the hovered item can break.
  
• Check the boxes of the tiles or objects you want to break.
  
• Mining without smart mining: Hold-click on top the tiles you want to break. If it's within the filter, indicators will show. It won't target tiles not in the filter.
  
• Mining with smart mining: Hold-click far from the player to auto-target mineable blocks (within the filter), moving the smart mine cursor to next valid tiles after locking targets. Holding click near the player manually targets tiles you hover on instead.
  
• A crosshair indicator shows that a tile is being mined/broken.
  
• A solid dot indicator shows that a tile is queued, meaning it'll be mined soon after current ones successfully break.
  
• A semitransparent dot indicator means a tile is targeted but you are too far from it.

Note that Pivelaxes have 80% of the corresponding Pickaxe mining speed to balance out simultaneous mining. That means vanilla Pickaxes still breaks a singular tile faster than a Pivelaxe.
Pivelaxes can only be crafted from the Gold tier and up, with each tier with improved stats.

• Gold: up to 2 tiles being mined simultaneously, up to 6 targets in queue.
  
• Frost: up to 3 tiles being mined simultaneously, up to 8 targets in queue.
  
• Demonic: up to 4 tiles being mined simultaneously, up to 10 targets in queue.
  
• Ivy: up to 5 tiles being mined simultaneously, up to 12 targets in queue.
  
• Tungsten: up to 6 tiles being mined simultaneously, up to 16 targets in queue. +1 tile added mining range.
  
• ???: up to 8 tiles being mined simultaneously, up to 24 targets in queue. +2 tiles added mining range.
