Finder

Finder Plugin

The Finder plugin provides commands to help the player locate nearby veins (primarily ore) and living entities. Some may consider this cheating...

Finding Blocks

To find the nearest veins of various block types (configured in the config.yml file for the plugin):

/find-blocks

You will see console output like so:

To find the nearest veins of a particular block type, use /find-block <block_type>. Example:

/find-block diamond_ore

Finding Entities

To find nearby entities, organized by type (and filtered according to config.yml):

/find-entites

To find nearby entities of a particular type, use /find-entity <entity_type>. Example:
/find-entity skeleton
