⛏ Veinminer

Veinminer is a configurable mining mod that lets players break connected ore and log veins with one normal block break. It keeps the grind down while giving server owners clear controls, limits, and permissions.

No /veinminer setup command is required. Install the mod, hold Shift while mining a supported block, and Veinminer works immediately.


⚙️ Key Features

  • 🧱 Vein Mining — mines connected supported blocks with safe block caps.
  • 🛠️ Activation Choices — Shift/sneak by default, optional client hotkey, hold or toggle mode per player.
  • 🙌 Empty-Hand Support — server owners can allow hand as a tool entry.
  • 🧰 Flexible Block Lists — global block and tool lists for server control.
  • 🪓 Per-Tool Rules — optional advanced per-tool block lists.
  • ⚡ Durability Safety — optional guard to avoid breaking tools.
  • 🔁 Cooldown & Limits — optional cooldown, exhaustion, and max-block controls.
  • ✴️ Particles/Outline — per-player outline particles with color and duration controls.
  • 🔐 LuckPerms Toggle — optional integration for permission-managed servers.
  • 🧪 Advanced Test Command — /vmadvanced test when advanced mode is enabled.
  • 🔄 Live Reloads — /veinminer reload or /vmadmin reload reloads configs from disk.

Works server-side out of the box. Optional client mod adds the hotkey, default V.

🖥️ Client Optional

Installing the client build enables the hotkey and sends key state to the server. Default key: V. Without the client, Shift/sneak activation remains available for a vanilla-only server-side experience.

  2. Drop the jar in /mods.
  3. Restart the server or client.
  4. Play normally. Edit configs or enable advanced mode only if you need admin controls.
