Server Side Vein Mine
by nayomaise
Server Side Vein Mine is a Fabric mod that lets a server remove connected ore and similar blocks in one action when a player breaks one of them.
What it does
When a player breaks a block on the configured list, the server checks a 3x3x3 area centred on that block for more blocks of the same type, including deepslate equivalents, and queues each match to break in turn. Server owners set the list of blocks through a command and can cap how many blocks one action may remove, with a default maximum of 64 to limit lag. The mod runs on the server only, so players join without installing anything. Files cover 1.20 – 26.3 and the latest build, 1.5.0, targets 26.3.
Key features
Configurable block list
The block list is edited with a server command, so owners choose which blocks trigger vein mining.
Chained area search
Each newly found block is checked the same way, so a connected vein is removed in one action.
Break limit
A maximum count of 64 blocks by default keeps a single break from causing server lag.
