Super Simple Server Side Veinminer
Super Simple Server Side Veinminer is a Fabric server mod that breaks an entire connected vein of ore when a player breaks one block of it.
What it does
Breaking one block of a connected vein removes the rest of that vein in a single action. The server decides which blocks count, using a configurable whitelist or blacklist of block types, and caps how many blocks one vein can contain through a configurable vein size. Players who only break stone and the odd ore block see no change beyond the faster work.
The mod runs on the server, so players join without installing anything. Client-side visual effects can be turned on for players who want feedback while a vein is removed, and the server controls whether those effects are shown at all. Settings are changed in the Fzzy Config GUI, which can be opened with the SSSSV command or from the Mod Menu entry.
The mod requires Fabric API, Fabric Language Kotlin and Fzzy Config. Mod Menu is optional and only adds a shortcut to the config screen. Files target 1.21.1 – 1.21.11, the latest for 1.21.11 dated 2026-02-07, and the code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later, so the source is open.
Key features
Connected vein breaking
Breaking one block removes every connected block of the same ore type, up to the configured vein size.
Block whitelist and blacklist
A configurable list decides which blocks can be veinmined, either as an allowed set or as an excluded set.
Configurable vein size
Server owners set the maximum number of blocks a single vein can remove, limiting how much one action breaks.
Optional visual effects
Client-side effects can be enabled to show that a vein was removed, and they do not change what the server breaks.
