About this Mod

Better Bridging is a tiny mod that adds one new item: The Bridge Brace. With it, you can now place blocks in rows of 3, instead of one at a time, making building walls, floors and bridges far easier!

To craft it, simply place three planks of any variety diagonally in a Crafting Table, and voila!

To rotate the row simply press the assigned hotkey, R by default, making placing from any orientation easy!

With the Widening Enchantment, coming in two levels, you can expand the scope of the Bridge Brace further to a whopping 5, and then 7 blocks across!

Happy building!
