Excavate

Area mining enchantment for NeoForge 1.21.1.

Excavation I affects a 3x3 area. Excavation II affects a 5x5 area. Crouch to use single-block interactions.

How it works

• Enchant any pickaxe, axe, shovel, or hoe
• Mine a block and the surrounding area breaks as well
• Hoe tilling, shovel pathing, and axe stripping also affect the surrounding area
• Each block drops its own correct loot
• Only blocks your tool can actually mine are affected
• Tool takes durability per block broken and stops if it breaks
• Unbreakable blocks (bedrock, etc.) are never affected

Crop harvesting

Hoes with Excavation harvest mature crops in an area. Auto-replant is enabled by default and one seed is consumed from each crop's drops to replant it. If no seed drops, that crop is left empty. You can toggle auto-replant in the config screen.
