KeepOnMining
by Partonetrain
KeepOnMining adds a configurable delay between breaking one block and starting the next, so mining is no longer instant.
What it does
Breaking a block normally starts the next break with no pause. KeepOnMining inserts a cooldown of 5 ticks by default, and the delay can be set to a different value in the mod's configuration menu. Changes take effect in-game without a restart. Files are published for NeoForge across 8 game versions, 1.21.1 – 1.21.8, and the code is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, so it is open source. The client needs the mod, while the server can run without it.
Key features
Break cooldown
A short pause of 5 ticks separates each block break, so a block is not removed the instant the previous one falls.
Configurable delay
The delay can be set to any value in the in-game configuration menu, with 0 as the default.
Live configuration
Adjusting the delay in the config menu applies in-game, so testing different values needs no restart.
