v0.1.9: Better Tooling + Infinite Reach Compatibility + Flight Speed Slider

Axion v0.1.9 improves replace mode, bulldozer, and fast place tools to work seamlessly with infinite reach, and introduces a new flying speed control in the Alt menu.

Highlights

• Flying Speed Slider: Adjust creative flight speed from 100% to 999% via Alt menu
• Replace Mode + Infinite Reach: Now uses ray marching for continuous fast replace at any distance
• Bulldozer + Infinite Reach: Continuous multi-block breaking along ray with fluid exclusion
• Fast Place + Infinite Reach: Continuous multi-block placement along ray
• Fixed continuous actions: Resolved issues with held-click detection causing single-block limits

Flying Speed Slider

A new vertical slider in the Alt menu (right-side strip) allows real-time adjustment of creative flight speed.

• Range: 100% to 999% (1.0x to 9.99x vanilla speed)
• Coarse control: + and - buttons adjust by 50% per click
• Fine control: Scroll wheel on track adjusts by 10% per tick
• Smooth sliding: Click and drag on track to adjust continuously
• Visual gradient: Blue (100%) → cyan → teal → green → lime (999%)
• NoClip safety: Speed capped at 300% when NoClip is enabled to prevent collision issues
• Only visible when player can fly (Creative mode)

Replace Mode Improvements

Replace mode now works properly with infinite reach:

• Uses ray marching to find multiple non-air blocks along the ray
• Continuous operation while holding right-click
• Blocks within vanilla range use interactBlock for client prediction
• Blocks beyond vanilla range use dispatch-based replacement
• Automatically uses fast place behavior for rapid replacement

Bulldozer Improvements

Bulldozer mode enhanced for better infinite reach compatibility:

• Ray marching finds up to 25 blocks along line of sight for continuous breaking
• Fluid exclusion: Water and lava blocks are now skipped (not broken)
• Per-tick deduplication prevents duplicate break operations
• Works at any distance when infinite reach is enabled

Fast Place Improvements

Fast place mode now supports infinite reach distances:

• Ray marching finds solid blocks to place against along the ray
• Quantized hit offsets allow multiple placements on the same block face
• Continuous placement while holding right-click
• Works at infinite reach distances with proper dispatch

Infinite Reach Fixes

Fixed several issues with continuous action detection:

• Removed suppressPrimaryUntilRelease check that was blocking continuous breaking
• Fixed usePressed/attackPressed detection when mixin cancels vanilla input
• Added manual key tracking for reliable held-click detection
• Infinite reach alone now properly supports continuous breaking at vanilla speed

UI/UX Polish

• Flying speed slider positioned below hotbar page buttons with proper spacing
• Dynamic track height (24-60px) based on available screen space
• Reserved space below slider for future toolbox slot
• Percentage label positioned to avoid overlapping page buttons

Notes

• Flying speed is client-side only - no network synchronization
• Applied via player.abilities.flySpeed which is a local client field
• All improved tools maintain compatibility with symmetry and undo/redo systems
• Bulldozer and fast place still require creative mode

v0.1.8: Larger Operations and New Creative Capabilities

Axion v0.1.8 adds support for much larger placement operations and introduces two new creative mode capabilities for faster block manipulation.

Highlights

• increased maximum serialized message size from 64MB to 128MB for larger operations
• added Bulldozer mode: hold left click to break blocks fast
• added Fast Place mode: hold right click to place blocks fast in a controlled manner
• replace mode now uses fast place by default for rapid block replacement
• fixed keybinds menu showing duplicate "Axion" categories for players with incomplete translations

Larger Operations

The maximum serialized message size has been increased from 64MB to 128MB, allowing for significantly larger placement operations without hitting the size limit. This change addresses crashes that occurred when confirming very large clone or move operations.

Additionally, client-side validation has been added to prevent operations that would exceed the limit, showing a user-friendly error message instead of crashing.

New Creative Capabilities

Two new toggle-able capabilities have been added for creative mode:

Bulldozer Mode

When enabled, holding left click will continuously break blocks at a controlled rate. This is useful for clearing large areas quickly without spamming clicks.

• Keybind: Toggle Axion Bulldozer (unbound by default, must be bound in controls)
• Uses the same toast notification pattern as other capabilities
• Works with existing infinite reach and symmetry features

Fast Place Mode

When enabled, holding right click will continuously place blocks at a controlled rate. This is useful for building structures or filling areas quickly.

• Keybind: Toggle Axion Fast Place (unbound by default, must be bound in controls)
• Uses the same toast notification pattern as other capabilities
• Replace mode now automatically uses fast place behavior for rapid block replacement
• Works with existing infinite reach and symmetry features

Both capabilities use a 4-tick repeat interval for controlled, predictable placement/breaking speed.

Keybinds Menu Fix

Fixed an issue where players with incomplete language translations (particularly Chinese players) would see multiple "Axion" categories in the keybinds menu instead of a single category. This was caused by using a non-standard category key format that didn't fall back gracefully when translations were missing.

The fix uses the standard Minecraft key.categories.axion.general format, ensuring consistent behavior across all locales.

Notes

• Both bulldozer and fast place modes are only available in creative mode
• Keybindings are unbound by default and must be configured by the user in the controls menu
• Fast place is automatically active when replace mode is enabled
• The larger operation limit applies to both Fabric and Paper backends
