Dual Wielder
Independent use keys for main-hand and off-hand actions!
About this Mod
Tired of accidentally placing torches in your offhand? Want to block with your shield without unequipping your bow?
Dual Wielder allows you to seperately configure your main-hand and off-hand keybinds to fix these common problems, and many more!
By default, the mod doesn't change anything, but if you open your keybind settings you can enable the mod's features.
By unbinding the default use key (Select it and press Escape) and binding the 2 new keybinds you can finally have full control over your off-hand and main-hand!
The mod is still a work in progress, so expect some issues. If you are encountering problems you can always switch between vanilla keybinds and modded keybinds
