Binds a tool that swaps blocks in place: a touch sets the item from the hotbar slot beside it into the world where the old block stood.

Pattern

Hover a tile to name it. Reading pattern diagrams explains the symbols.

5 × 5, one layer. Drawn flat on the ground, facing any compass direction.

NWES

AAAAATAAAAA

• T
  Tier block × 1

  Every T is the same block, and that block’s Tier sets the rune’s strength.
• Air or a Tier 0 block × 14

  Leave these as air, or fill them with Tier 0 blocks such as dirt or stone.
• Activation block

  The glowing cell is the one to click.
• Spent

  Cells with a corner mark are used up when the rune wakes.

Keys

How it works

Embedder binds an item that cannot be placed, such as a stick, and turns it into a tool that swaps blocks in place. Put the block you want to set in the hotbar slot just left of the Embedder. Then right-click a block in the world, and it is replaced by the block from that slot, facing the way you would place it. Each swap spends one charge.

Good to know

• It refuses chests and other inventory blocks, bedrock, and barriers.
• It rewrites blocks up to Tier 3. Denser blocks refuse it. That block is too dense for this Embedder (Tier 4, max 3).
• Server owners can raise the limit with max-replace-tier.

Tips

Swap a stone wall for stone bricks block by block, without breaking anything first.

Enchantment

The enchantment is called Embedder. Hold a non-placeable item (not a block) while you wake the rune.
