[Feature Request] Bedrock-like Block Placement #13

Hi! This has been one of my favorite mods to use in Survival for a long time now because of how useful it is, and I always use it when I'm able to while playing on Java Edition. I play Bedrock a lot and so I have a lot of experience with its system of speedbridging and this mod helps bridge the gap between the two systems for me. There is one feature from Bedrock Edition that I've yet to see in any other mod that goes sorely missed whenever I play Java Edition, and that's how block placement works on Bedrock.

On Bedrock Edition, block placement follows the movement of the player while holding down the place button, even without regard to the delay in between placing blocks that the game usually enforces when you place blocks by holding place. Essentially, if you move forward while holding place and after placing your first block, more blocks will continue being placed in front of that first block. This is the functionality that lets competitive Bedrock players speedbridge so quickly by just holding down place and sprint-jumping, and it's a super important feature on that platform! While bridging is the main use for this (which is why I'm suggesting this for Bridging Mod), it also has applications in building, making it easier to build in straight lines in Creative Mode.

I know that the philosophy for this mod is meant to be replicating Quark's bridging, and this feature isn't present in Quark, but it would be a really really nice one to have for QoL. If you would consider adding this when you have time, I would ship you my kidney.

Thank you for the suggestion! I'll have a poke at adding it soon. :)

It's one of the things I miss when building in creative.
