Features

Build Mode

Build mode allows players to temporarily switch to creative mode while preserving their survival inventory. This is perfect for:
- Collaborative building projects
- Event city construction
- Quick prototyping
- Community building sessions

&nbsp;How Build Mode Works
1. Entering Build Mode: Your current survival inventory (hotbar, backpack, and armor) is saved and hidden
2. Creative Access: You get a clean creative mode inventory with access to all blocks
3. Restrictions: While in build mode, you cannot:
&nbsp; &nbsp; - Access chests or containers
4. Exiting Build Mode: Your creative inventory is cleared and your original survival items are restored exactly as they were
