Mod will automatically select right tool to interact with the object in your hit location.
Install
If player holds left Ctrl or toggles F5 is directed to the tile and hovers cursor over it, mod will choose the right tool from player's toolbox that can interact with it. Mod chooses :
Freeze bug
Sometimes when using tool you can be stuck in this tool animation. There is a workaround: take scythe or weapon to your hand and use it. Then you should be able to move again.
Config options
ActivationKey (LCtrl) - when hold, mod is activated.
ToggleKey (F5) - press to turn on/off mod.
Here is list of keys https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Key_Bindings
HoeSelect - true: mod will select hoe when you target ground. I recommend to set false.
IfNoneToolChooseWeapon - true: mod will select weapon/scythe when none tool was chosen. Works better with HoeSelect=false,
RideHorseCursor - true: mod will use cursor location to determine which tool should be chosen while riding horse (tractor), false: mod will use tool hit location to determine which tool should be chosen while riding horse (tractor). I recommend to set true, but false might be useful for controller.
PickaxeOverWareringCan - true: mod will select pickaxe on hoed dirt, instead of watering can. Can be used to collect clay. Works better with HoeSelect=true. I recommend to set false.
I didn't tested it much in practice (just checked if it works as I programmed), but I think that it is more effective to not hold activation key all the time. More productive would be switching between tools after several seconds. It shouldn't be useful anywhere but on farm while clearing, digging and watering fields and in mines in levels with barrels or ice crystals. Default swapping into weapon might be very useful, since weapons is needed to fight with monsters in mines and holding it doesn't provide any energy downsides and it is better than bare hand that can be filled by random item.
