# Better Silk Touch<\/p>\n
A small Fabric client mod for Minecraft `1.21.x` that prevents breaking selected blocks unless the held tool has Silk Touch.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
## What it does<\/p>\n
– Lets the player maintain a protected block list in a Mod Menu settings screen
\n– Cancels breaking those blocks when the held tool does not have Silk Touch
\n– Plays a light ping sound on blocked attempts
\n– Shows a short red warning above the hotbar: `you’re not using silk touch`<\/p>\n
## Configuration<\/p>\n
Open the mod settings through Mod Menu.<\/p>\n
You can:<\/p>\n
– add a block by id, such as `minecraft:glass`
\n– add the block you are currently looking at
\n– remove blocks from the protected list<\/p>\n
The config file is stored at:<\/p>\n
`config\/better-silk-touch.json`<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
