Liteminer

Mine an entire vein of ore, chop an entire tree or break any group of blocks by holding a hotkey. A veinmining mod for Fabric, NeoForge, Forge and Quilt.

Requires Architectury API and Forge Config API Port.

How To Use It

Hold the Tilde/Grave key, look at a block, and mine it. The outlines should show what you're about to mine.

There are a few shapes you can mine with and to switch between them hold the Liteminer key and scroll your mouse wheel.

The available shapes are: Shapeless (mines connected blocks), 3x3, Small Tunnel, Staircase Up and Staircase Down.

Current Plan

I've completed all the features I wanted to add to the mod when I started the project, and I'm happy with how it turned out. The next steps are fixing bugs that might come up and adding new features that I think of or that are requested by the community starting with the Forge port.

Tags

Item Tags

• liteminer:excluded_tools - items in this tag can't be used for litemining (applies to main hand slot)
• liteminer:included_tools - if require_tool is true in server config, by default only "tool" items can be used (tiered items with durability); this can be used to allow extra items

Block Tags

• liteminer:excluded_blocks - blocks in this tag may never be litemined
• liteminer:block_whitelist - if this tag is non-empty, then only blocks in this tag may be litemined

Note: these tags are compatible with the FTB Ultimine tags, so you can use the same tags for both mods if you already have a setup you like.
