Tilde Mining
by FractalCoder
Tilde Mining is a Fabric mod that lets a player break a whole vein of ore or a set of blocks with one hotkey press, with the shape and direction of the collection under the player's control.
What it does
Pressing the vein mining hotkey breaks connected blocks of the same kind in one action. The shape of the area collected is set by custom shape rules, so a flat slab, a column or a staircase can be cleared instead of a plain blob. Directional mining logic decides which way the collection extends from the block that was broken, and staircase support lets a run of stairs be cleared going up or down.
Optional non-full block filtering narrows what counts as part of a vein, so slabs, stairs or other partial blocks can be excluded when only full cubes should be collected. Most of this behavior is set in the configuration, and the mod depends on Cloth Config API for its settings screen, with Mod Menu optional for opening that screen from the mod list.
Tilde Mining runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.20.1, and the latest file is 1.0.0 for 1.20.1 on the alpha channel. The code is licensed as All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
