Hello

This is a strange request but hear me out

I think most players from older versions are well used to Quark Reacharound. Therefore we all like the mod. But some of the behavior is different, and one might expect some users to want to configure the behavior of the bridge placement.

When users come from modpacks, they are not necessarily aware of all the mods that are installed, and may not even know your mod.

I had a lot of trouble finding your mod in my configs, and even more in my keybinds. I looked for "place" (placement?), "block", "reacharound", "around", "reach", then proceeded to go through the whole list of bindings in my shortcuts menu, to no avail.

I then went into my config folder, and did a grep -ri 'reach' to find any mention of "reacharound" or something else in my configs.

Unfortunately the keybind is named "Toggle Bridging"

I find the label not very self-explanatory and hard to search for, when you have no awareness that this new mod is now implementing old the Reacharound from Quark.

I think it would be massively helpful renaming the key binding from "Toggle Bridging" to something more expected like "Toggle Reacharound Placement".

If "Bridging" is the verb you wish to keep, as it's kind of your brand, just including "placement", "placing" would at least help users who are going through their keybinds trying to find an answer to "which mod does that UI element...?".

Yeah, good idea. Changed for the next release.

To my knowledge, people tended to call this Bridging on the bedrock side, which is why I've always called it "Bridging". Over the last year, there have been more and more people using it from Quark, so it's probably time that's changed.

"Toggle Reacharound Placement" seems like a good choice. I'll keep it as "Bridging" in the config & add an extra tooltip+comment though.
