QuarryPlus (v0.5.0)

Automate mining without losing control.

QuarryPlus adds an upgradeable, fuel-powered quarry block that mines based on placement direction, supports multiple excavation shapes, and gives you detailed control through a custom UI.

What's New in v0.5.0

Added configurable fuel profiles, including support for overriding built-in fuels or adding new fuel item ids.
Improved the plugin config format to be pretty-printed and easier to edit.
Removed duplicated runtime config fields so each editable setting now appears only once.
Expanded automated coverage for config parsing, tier speed overrides, and fuel override behavior.

Notes

Scan progress tracking is currently Square-focused in the tooltip logic.
Tier 4 custom square dimensions are clamped by config to safe limits (default max: 300 x 300).
Tunnel distance options are currently 20 and 100.
Ores Only is stored per quarry and persists across break/place.
Default tier speed caps and fuel values can be edited in quarryplus-config.json.
Fuel Max Output / sec must still be high enough to sustain the mining speed you configure.

Quick Start

Craft QuarryPlus at a Tier 2 Workbench.
Place the block facing the direction you want to mine.
Add fuel.
Choose shape/size (and custom width/length at Tier 4 Square mode).
Optional: enable Preview and Ores Only.
Turn power on and monitor progress from the UI.
