What is a Multitool and a Special tool?

Hello, I've started creating mods recently.

I've made some very small "QOL" mods, such as craftable slimeballs. However I'm trying to do a bigger project, it adds numerous new ores, processing of ores and much more stuff, however I still lack some of the tools/armour for my mod. And so here comes the question, I don't know what MultiTool or SpecialTool is. I know as much that MultiTool is basically X amount of tools combined. I am creating a hammer right now, and I wanted to make it mine out a 2x2 area. Though I don't know which Type tool to choose. I guess that for coding it I'd need to use procedures, though I don't really know. 

 

Thanks for reading and maybe answering.

Hi, Acreeno!

I can’t actually tell you, what they do exactly, because I didn’t make this type of tools at all, but I can quote the developer's words:

„The multitool is meant to be a blend of all tools, you specify how much of something it is using parameters. Use procedures to add even more functions.“ - Submitted by Klemen on Sun, 09/15/2019 - 17:57

„…Special tool is tool that can only break the listed blocks (listed in the tool editor), but these blocks can be broken by other tools too...“ - Submitted by Klemen on Fri, 04/05/2019 - 13:46

Hope that helps!
