The Mechanical Ruler is an accessory sold by the Mechanic. While equipped, it draws a semi-transparent grid overlay on the screen, making individual block distances much clearer. This grid fades out when the player begins moving and returns once movement stops. The row and column of the block the mouse is hovering over are also highlighted in red, drawing a cross on screen with the mouse at its center.

Notes

  • Though it has little utility in combat, the Mechanical Ruler can still receive a modifier and affect the player's stats.
  • If the accessory slot it is equipped in is invisible, the grid will not show up.
  • This is effectively an upgraded version of the standard Ruler.
