Description from the author on Modrinth

no-block-delay

A minimal Fabric minecraft mod that removes the 4 tick delay when placing blocks.

How does it work?

The mod works by injecting into the handleInputEvents method, in which it checks
if the delay == 0, if so, it sets the @Shadow itemUseCooldown to 0 and returns.
If this is not the case, it checks if the current itemUseCooldown is higher than
the defined delay, if so, it sets the @Shadow itemUseCooldown to the delay.

Configuration

The mod uses a noblockdelay.json in the fabric config directory,
using
FabricLoader.getInstance().getConfigDir().resolve("noblockdelay.json");
This auto-generates the config file, if it doesn't already exist.

Default config file:
{
"enabled": true,
"delay": 0
}

Enabling / Disabling

You can toggle the mod, using:
/noblockdelay toggle
This also saves the content to the config file.

Or you can edit the noblockdelay.json config file directly.

Configuring delay

You can configure the delay using:
/noblockdelay set
This also saves the content to the config file.

The needs to be a positive integer.
