Maikura Paxels

by MaikuraKobo

Maikura Paxels adds paxels, single tools that combine the pickaxe, axe and shovel functions, so fewer tools need to be carried while exploring, building and gathering.

FabricClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.21.11

What it does

A paxel performs the actions of a pickaxe, an axe and a shovel in one item, which reduces the number of tools a player must keep in the inventory. The paxels follow the standard progression of the game, from wooden and stone up through copper, iron, gold and diamond to netherite, with each tier available as its own item.

Diamond paxels can be upgraded with the standard Netherite Smithing Template system. The top tier, the Beacon Paxel, is an end-game tool crafted from materials made by the mod, and it is meant as a step beyond the traditional equipment of the game.

Maikura Paxels needs Fabric API and runs on Fabric. Because the environment is client and server, the server and every player need the mod. Files are published for 1.21.11 only, with version 1.0.0 as the latest build, and the code is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Combined paxel tools

    Each paxel replaces a pickaxe, an axe and a shovel in a single item, so one tool covers mining, chopping and digging.

  2. Full material progression

    Paxels exist in wood, stone, copper, iron, gold, diamond and netherite, matching the tiers the game already uses.

  3. Netherite upgrades

    Diamond paxels can be upgraded through the standard Netherite Smithing Template recipe.

  4. Beacon Paxel

    A top-tier end-game paxel made from materials added by the mod, intended as the most advanced tool in the set.
