Area Mine - Overview

Area Mine is an enchantment for pickaxes that lets you mine an entire area around the block you break. By default it mines a cube. The mod is server-side: only the server needs it; players can join without installing it.

Getting started

Get the enchantment

Get an Area Mine enchanted book from a Librarian (level 5 trade). Use an anvil to put it on a pickaxe. The enchant has three levels (I, II, III); each level increases the mining area size.

Use it

Crouch (sneak) and break a block with the enchanted pickaxe. Only blocks that pickaxes are effective on (e.g. stone, ores) are mined. Bedrock and unbreakable blocks are never broken.

Upgrades menu

The mod has one in-game menu: Upgrades.

Open it: /areamine upgrades

Simple mode vs standard mode

Simple mode (no token economy):

• No tokens. Progress is only from mining specific ores.
• No "[Area Mine] X blocks" in chat.
• Cube pattern only.
• The Upgrades menu shows four upgrades with progress Mined: X / Y. Mine the required ores with Area Mine to fill the bar, then unlock in the menu.

Toggle simple mode:

• /areamine simple status
• /areamine simple enable
• /areamine simple disable
• /areamine simple toggle

Standard mode (full progression):

• You earn tokens from blocks you area-mine (values per block are configurable).
• Unlock extra patterns (e.g. sphere, tunnel) by spending tokens: /areamine patterns and /areamine patterns buy <name>.
• The same Upgrades menu: spend tokens on radius boost, efficiency boost, durability boost, auto pickup, etc.
• Chat can show "X blocks" and "+Y tokens" after each use (configurable).

Commands

In simple mode, token and pattern commands are hidden.

Progress is per world

Stats and upgrade progress (including "Mined: X / Y" in simple mode) are per world. Each world has its own progress; switching worlds does not carry it over.

Configuration

Config file: config/area-mine/config.json. You can change:

• Whether crouch is required
• Max area size and blocks per tick
• Which blocks can be area-mined
• Token values per block (standard mode)
• Simple-mode upgrade ores and counts
• Sounds, particles, chat and action bar feedback

After editing, run /areamine reload (with permission) to apply.

Optional client

If players install the mod on the client, they get a particle preview of which blocks will be mined when looking at a block with an Area Mine pickaxe. The mod works with server-only installation; the client part is optional.
