Pack Your Shovel is a Vintage Story mod by Sopi. Pack Your Shovel lets you create packed dirt, rammed earth, and paths directly with a shovel instead of crafting them.
Why this mod is worth installing
Useful for builders and landscapers who want to shape terrain faster while avoiding accidental changes to fertile soil.
What Pack Your Shovel adds
Pack Your Shovel adds shovel modes for packing suitable soil and creating paths. Press F to switch between packing, path-making, and ramming modes, then crouch and dig the нужный блок with the default controls.
Path creation consumes the first matching stones found in your toolbar, so valuable stone types should be moved elsewhere before working. Paths can also be made on sand and gravel when the required soil and stones are available.
The mod avoids high-fertility soil and can optionally turn packed dirt into basic rammed earth through double-packing. A cooldown can prevent immediately digging the block you have just modified, while durability use can follow normal shovel digging.
