<\/p>\n
Nearby crafting is a simple mod for Fabric which enables crafting from nearby container blocks, such as barrels and chests.
\nA massive timesaver, and absolute essential for your survival world or server modpacks.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
## Features<\/p>\n
### Crafting from nearby containers
\nThis works for both crafting tables, and crafting within the player’s inventory<\/p>\n
### Completley Customisable
\nNearby crafting supports customising the reach radius, or toggling the reach functionality altogether.<\/p>\n
This can be done seperatley for different crafting scenarios (i.e. Crafting Tables and Player Inventory Crafting)
\n_By default, the reach functionality is enabled and the radius is 8 blocks for all crafting scenarios._<\/p>\n
These can be changed using modmenu, or commands.
\n**If you are playing on a server, you must use commands to change the config,** the modmenu config page will only affect the clients settings for singleplayer.<\/p>\n
