Custom Character or tool Make shovels pick before digging by spacebar?

Anyway to have either a custom character or tool shovel item "Pick" a reasoure before digging by holding space bar?

@JadeKnightblazer, I don't really understand the use of such a function. Wouldn't it be simpler to just unequip the shovel if you don't wanna dig stuff?

If your issue is that it's tedious to equip and unequip it constantly, have a look at this mod, Auto Equip.

Wouldn't say tedious in this case, more of a Custom Item Perk

what shovelable item doesnt auto pick when you dig it up?  berry bushes, tumble weed, cutgrass and mushrooms all do.

Normal shovel --> Digs up plant, character can pick up plant and what ever harvest item. (while holding spacebar)

 

Custom Shovel --> Character harvests plant, then Digs up plant. (while holding spacebar)

 

It is more of a QoL feature, and helps not destorying farms (have to replant and fertiz)

@JadeKnightblazer, I'm sorry, but I still don't understand the use for this or even what exactly you are trying to accomplish.

 

From what I'm getting, you want the shovel to harvest a plant (pick berries) then automatically dig it up too (get berry bush). Originally, if you just dig a plant that isn't harvested, you will get the loot (berries) AND the plant (berry bush) in one go.

 

Either that, or you want to swap the primary and secondary function of shovels, making it harvest instead of dig normally, and only dig upon right-clicking. I don't see why you would want that, but have a look at this mod. It does something similar with tooth traps.
