MiningFatigueReproductio
by DY_XiaoJiaZi
MiningFatigueReproduction changes how the Mining Fatigue effect scales, replacing its exponential slowdown with a linear one on Forge for 1.20.1.
What it does
Vanilla Mining Fatigue cuts mining speed exponentially with each level, so higher levels can make blocks nearly unbreakable, and effects from several Guardians stacked in Ocean Monuments can ruin mining. This mod swaps that curve for a linear one: each level reduces the mining speed by a fixed amount rather than by a growing share, so the slowdown stays smooth and predictable while still threatening.
The mod is Forge-only and runs on a client and a server, so both sides need it. Only the mining speed is changed: movement speed, attack speed, potion duration and other attributes stay as they are, and Efficiency enchantments and Haste still counter the slowdown as usual. Drinking milk clears the effect as it does in vanilla. The mod works with vanilla content and is licensed under All rights reserved, so it is not open source, though its source code is publicly available.
Key features
Linear mining slowdown
Each Mining Fatigue level removes a fixed share of mining speed, so the effect grows steadily instead of exponentially.
Configurable slowdown cap
A maximum slowdown divisor, set to 10 by default, prevents very high levels from making mining virtually impossible.
Targeted changes
Only mining speed is affected, while movement, attack speed, potion duration and other attributes remain untouched.
Vanilla enchantments still apply
Efficiency enchantments and Haste effects counter the slowdown normally, and milk clears the effect.

This mod changes Mining Fatigue to a linear slowdown: each level reduces your speed by only one additional factor. No more exponential nightmare — smooth, predictable, and still threatening.
