Fortune & Silk Touch Switching Plugin

Toggle enchantment modes instantly using /switcher

What is FortuneSwitcher?

Fortune and Silk Touch on the same tool.

Instead of carrying multiple pickaxes, shovels, or hoes, players can switch modes instantly. FortuneSwitcher will work with most plugins, other Enchantments, and OP Enchantments.

This makes mining, excavation, and farming smoother while still allowing server owners to control how tools behave.

Why Use FortuneSwitcher?

Most servers force players to carry:

• a Fortune tool
• a Silk Touch tool

FortuneSwitcher removes that frustration and replaces it with a clean, powerful toggle system.

Players get the convenience of one tool, while server owners maintain full control.

Support & Future Plans

Future updates may include:

• Custom enchant pair switching
• Additional tool types
• Customizable commands
• GUI-based tool generator
