It generates an explosion when mining

Description

Better Mining adds a special mechanic for pickaxes:
When you mine a block, there's a configurable chance of generating a controlled mini-explosion that breaks several surrounding blocks and releases all their drops.

Ideal for faster mining without turning the world into chaos.

If you find any bugs, please let me know.

Main features

Each time you break a block with a permitted pickaxe, there is a configurable chance to trigger a small explosion that breaks nearby blocks.

  • Configurable radius
  • Configurable probability

Compatible with any pickaxe

You can add or remove pickaxes from the configuration file:

  • Vanilla pickaxes
  • Pickaxes from other mods
  • Custom tools

Just add their itemId to the list.

Complete settings

The mod includes a configuration file where you can adjust:

  • AllowedPickaxes → list of pickaxes that trigger the explosion
  • ExplosionChance → explosion probability
  • ExplosionRadius → explosion size

 

V.2

  • A ability was added to the pickaxe
  • The range of the explosion generated for the ability will depend on the range of the base explosion.

Known bugs

  • Error with the default activation key is F, which is the interaction key
  • The widget does not hide if you interact with the pickaxe in your hand and open a chest, etc.

More options will be added in future versions.

 

Upcoming (planned) improvements

  • Actual durability based on block type
  • Automatic protection for chests, tables, and machines
  • Advanced configuration of allowed blocks

I want to thank ScarForge for helping me with some improvements
