TFC: Hammer Time
by RTCornejo
TFC: Hammer Time adds sledgehammers to TerraFirmaCraft on Forge, letting a single swing break a three-by-three area of blocks.
What it does
The mod adds sledgehammers as a mining tool for TerraFirmaCraft. Each swing breaks a three-by-three area of blocks, which speeds up large excavations, underground bases and bulk resource gathering compared with breaking one block at a time. The recipe is opened at the anvil, so the tool follows TerraFirmaCraft's progression system and is not available at the start of a world.
TerraFirmaCraft is required and must be installed alongside the mod. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, with version 1.0.3 as the latest file from 2024-10-16.
Key features
Three-by-three mining
A single sledgehammer swing breaks a three-by-three area of blocks instead of one block.
Anvil-gated recipe
The sledgehammer recipe is opened at the anvil, matching TerraFirmaCraft's progression.
Faster bulk mining
Large-scale digging and resource collection take fewer swings than with a standard pickaxe.

Use cases

Players clearing large rooms and tunnels for underground bases can cut through stone in fewer swings.
Resource gathering
Players collecting ore or stone in bulk can gather a larger area per action.
Who it’s for: Players who run TerraFirmaCraft survival worlds and want a faster mining tool for big projects. Players who prefer one-block mining with the vanilla pickaxe may not need it.
