OreChain

OreChain is a lightweight and performance-focused Minecraft plugin that enhances mining by breaking connected ore blocks of the same type in a single action.

When a player mines an ore block, all adjacent ores of the same material are automatically detected and broken, creating a smooth and satisfying chain-mining experience while keeping the gameplay balanced and fair.

Features

- Breaks only the same ore type

- Highly optimized algorithm (safe block limit)

- Configurable maximum blocks per chain

- World whitelist support

- Tool-aware breaking (respects enchantments)

- No commands, no permissions — works naturally

- Designed for survival gameplay

- Minimal impact on server performance
