Description

Creative Mode allows you to spawn in items. It's good for testing things out and learning.

The Authoring Tool is available in creative mode. It allows quick building without resources.

There are two ways to enable creative mode. The easiest is to create a new world and select Creative Mode in custom settings.

Creative mode can be enabled in existing saves by editing the save file with a text editor. First, make a backup of the save. Then modify worldsettings.xml and change GameMode to Creative.
