Abslb's More Pickaxes
by Abslb
Abslb's More Pickaxes adds several new pickaxes to NeoForge, each with a distinct mining behavior, for 1.21.1 and 26.1.2 builds.
What it does
Each added pickaxe changes how mining works. The Moss Pickaxe breaks moss convertible blocks and normal stone much faster, and the Icy Pickaxe does the same for ice, packed ice, blue ice and snow. The Smelter Pickaxe smelts its drops as they break, and the Magnet Pickaxe pulls mined drops straight into the holding player's hand instead of letting them fall. The Encumbering Pickaxe blocks its holder from picking up dropped items.
Some tools focus on reach or large-scale mining. The Crab Claw Pickaxe adds 2 blocks of entity interaction range, the Crowbar Pickaxe breaks large numbers of artificial blocks quickly, and the Negative Mining Pickaxe mines hard blocks fast and soft blocks slowly. Right-clicking with the Anglerfish Pickaxe mines underwater faster and raises the chance of fishing loot. The Ancient Beast Pickaxe chains through world-base stone in a fishbone shape, and the Bedrock Pickaxe breaks almost any block, including those with hardness -1.
