Armor, Tools, and Weapons Utility & QoL

StripMining is a mod for Minecraft version 1.12.2 that provides the ability to dynamically create highly customized hammers, excavators, and carpenter axes.

 

All tools are generated from configuration files, so adding new tools or removing existing tools is as simple as creating or deleting a Json file. Nearly every tool stat is configurable, from tool appearance and color, to the height and width of the break area.

 

Hammers

Hammers are pickaxe-like tools that specialize in mining large areas of blocks.

 

Excavators

Excavators are shovel-like tools that specialize in digging large areas of blocks.

 

Prospecting Picks

Prospecting Picks are pickaxe-like tools used to locate ores in surrounding blocks. These tools include built-in Game Stage support, hiding or obscuring ores the player does not meet the requirements for.

 

Carpenter Axes

 Carpenter Axes are specialized tools used break areas of wood blocks. While functionally similar to normal axes, these axes lack the ability to rapidly harvest foliage.
