Easy Place, Auto-place and Pick block

Three helpers that place the right block, facing the right way.

Easy Place

Turn on Easy Place in Settings. Then click a ghost with anything in your hand except the wand: that ghost's block is placed from your inventory, facing the right way. One click, one block.

Blocks you place yourself in a ghost turn to face the right way too.

Holding mossy stone brick slabs: the ghosts where they go light up green, and the next one is outlined in yellow
With a block in hand, its ghosts light up green; the next one is outlined in yellow.

Auto-place with the wand

Turn on Auto-place with the wand in Settings. Then hold the wand and look at ghosts: they fill in from your inventory, a few a second, no clicking. Look along a row to fill it.

  • It only works while you hold the wand.
  • It only fills empty spots.

Pick block

Sneak and use the wand on a ghost: that block goes into your hand, from your inventory onto your hotbar next to the wand. Use it on a block that's already placed to get another of the same.

Where the blocks come from

  • All three use the blocks in your inventory, one item for each block placed.
  • Named items and shulker boxes are never used, so your special things are safe.
  • In creative, nothing is used up, and Pick block gives you a stack if you have none.
  • Run out? See Refill from chests.
