You can craft a Road-Building Staff using amethyst shards, copper ingots, and sticks in a vertical combination, or get it from the 'Tools & Utilities' creation page.
Sneak and press the use key, then choose the type of road—countryside road, stone brick road, spruce wooden plank road, or mossy stone garden path—and select a width of 3, 5, or 7 blocks.
Aim at the ground or water within six blocks and press the use key once to mark the starting point; move to the endpoint and press the use key again. The staff doesn’t go into a continuous use state, so your walking and sprinting speed aren’t affected.
The server will compare several smooth curves and choose the route with the lowest terrain cost, then give a final precise preview including bridge piers, railings, lights, plants, excavation/fill, and obstacle clearance. Cyan means regular road, orange means excavation or bridge, and red means a spot that cannot be safely replaced.
Press the use key again to confirm construction, or the attack key to cancel. The current version doesn’t let players undo, so double-check the preview.
Roads don’t consume blocks from your inventory. Two-point routes are smoothed using a centripetal Catmull–Rom curve; continuous water or deep trenches of 3 blocks or more automatically turn into full bridges of the corresponding style, while smaller puddles are simply filled. Mossy stone garden paths will produce deterministic natural flower clusters on road shoulders suitable for plant growth.
The server will check interactions, unloaded chunks, protection events, block entities, irreplaceable blocks, and operation scale; once confirmed, the construction is carried out in a persistent queued batch.
