Features
⛏️ Normal Mine (Left-Click) Retains standard vanilla block-breaking behavior.
Ideal for traditional tunneling, instant peeking, and quickly checking for hidden hazards or blocks directly behind the ore face.💎 Ore Plucking (Right-Click / Use) Cleaves the resource drops straight out of the ore block instantly.
Leaves behind a hollow stone shell, allowing you to strip the value from a vein without causing structural collapses or messy terrain gaps.🛠️ Tool Requirements & Compatibility Pickaxe Required: Ore plucking only functions when holding a tool with standard pickaxe capabilities (PICKAXE_DIG ability).
Mod Compatibility: Works seamlessly out of the box with custom modded pickaxes, hammers, and multitools, provided they expose native pickaxe behavior.
