A handheld builder for Tank Tracks Framework using a fake block to act as the track placing "tool".

Not the mod you're looking for

You need a mod that adds track designs and this is not it. The Tank Tracks Framework page's description lists some known track mods, those are not all of them of course, search the workshop to find hidden gems! If those mods are configured right they will automatically bring the API mod and this mod along.

Function

This being only the builder tool it does not contain any info on how the tracks behave after that, for that info look at the Tank Tracks Framework.

Placing tracks does not require any materials. Can only place tracks on friendly (non-neutral) vehicles.

It also functions as a TankTracksAPI usage example.

This or a mod similar to this is required for the player to have the ability to place or remove tracks to vehicles. Vehicles that already have tracks on them are not affected by this mod, those are handled by the tracks framework.

If you want players in your server to not be able to add/remove tracks, then either prohibit the track builder block or remove this mod entirely by turning off auto-dependencies (DS only) and adding all the dependencies manually except this one.

Problems?

If equipping the tool says "TankTracksAPI not working or not present" or "No track designs defined" then: First ensure you have a mod that adds tracks. See a list of track mods in Tank Tracks Framework. If that's not the case, then post a comment or discussion with the exact mods you do have and the exact behavior you're getting.
