Accelerated Brush
Accelerated Brush changes how quickly a brush works on suspicious blocks, shortening the archaeology dig time in Forge and NeoForge worlds.
What it does
Brushing suspicious blocks in archaeology normally takes several seconds, and the mod shortens that wait. Its default setting makes brushing 2.5 times faster, bringing a 5 second dig down to 2 seconds. The speed is controlled by a tickAmount value in the mod's config, so server owners and players can tune it to their taste. Where other brushing tweaks change only the animation speed, this mod reduces the number of brushing actions required, which the author describes as producing better visuals. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files cover 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 for Forge and NeoForge.
