How to Use the Ore Finder Addon

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Setting the Area

- **Equip the Ore Finder**: Hold the "Ore Finder" item in your hand.

- **Select Position 1**:

- Stand at one corner of the area you want to scan for ores or blocks.

- Right-click (or use the item) to set **Position 1**. A message will appear:

*“Position 1 set: (X, Y, Z). Use the Ore Finder again to set Position 2.”*

- **Select Position 2**:

- Move to the opposite corner of the area.

- Right-click again to set **Position 2**. You’ll see:

*“Position 2 set: (X, Y, Z). Calculating block counts…”*

> **Note**: The maximum area size is **50 blocks per axis** (X, Y, Z). If the distance between Position 1 and Position 2 exceeds 100 blocks in any direction, you’ll get:

> *“Error: Selected area is too large! Max distance is 100 blocks.”* Reset and select a smaller area if this happens.

2. Finding Ores and Counting Blocks

- After setting both positions, the addon scans the area and counts all **non-air blocks**, including ores, between Position 1 and Position 2.

- A **Block Counter Result** window will display:

- A list of block types (e.g., `stone`, `iron_ore`, `diamond_ore`) and their quantities.

- The total number of non-air blocks.

- Example output:

- **Options**:

- **Save**: Store the results for later (see Step 3).

- **Close**: Exit without saving.

3. Saving Your Scan

- Select **Save** to keep the ore and block data. A new window will ask for a name (e.g., “OrePatch1”).

- Enter a name and confirm. You’ll get a message:

*“Block counts saved as ‘OrePatch1’. Sneak and use the Ore Finder to view saved data.”*

- Saved scans can be reviewed anytime (see Step 4).

4. Viewing Saved Scans

- **Open the Menu**:

- Hold the "Ore Finder" item.

- **Sneak** (default: Shift key) and right-click to access the **Saved Block Counts** menu.

- **Choose a Saved Set**:

- The menu lists all saved scans (e.g., “OrePatch1”, “DeepMine”).

- Click a name to view its details.

- **Review Details**:

- A window shows the saved ore and block counts, just like the initial results.

- **Options**:

- **OK**: Close the window.

- **Remove**: Delete the saved scan. Confirmation:

*“Saved data ‘OrePatch1’ has been removed.”*

Tips & Tricks

- **Ore Hunting**: Focus on underground areas (Y-levels 0-60) for the best ore finds.

- **Small Scans**: Use smaller areas (e.g., 10x10x10) for quicker results.

- **Naming**: Use clear names like “DiamondZone” or “NetherOres” to track your scans easily.

---

Troubleshooting

- **“No saved block counts found”**: You haven’t saved any scans yet. Follow Step 3 to save one.

- **Area Too Large**: Keep the area within 50 blocks per axis to avoid errors.

- **No Ores Found**: Try scanning deeper underground or in a different biome.
