Legacy Efficiency
by 2lay
Legacy Efficiency restores the block-breaking speeds of older Minecraft versions for certain block types on Fabric.
What it does
Legacy Efficiency changes how fast certain block types break, bringing back the tool speed values that older Minecraft releases used. Only the server needs the mod, so players can join a server running it without installing anything. It is published for Fabric and targets 1.20.6, with the 1.0.0 file released on 2024-05-26 and the source code available under the MIT License, making it open source.
Key features
Older breaking speeds
Certain block types break at the speeds they had in earlier Minecraft versions, changing how mining feels.
Block-type specific changes
The adjusted speeds apply to selected block types rather than to every block in the game.
Server-side behavior
Changes take effect on the server, so connecting players keep their vanilla client setup.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
