Optimized Mining

I always hated strip mining, there are some good mods that make your pickaxe break more blocks, but its either not for 1.12.2 or doesn't work, so here's a mod that works.

Description

Optimized Mining

Area Dig cover image

Adds an enchantment that lets a pickaxe, axe, or shovel break a whole area of blocks when you mine one.

What It Does (for the user)

  • When you break a block with an enchanted tool, the mod automatically breaks all blocks in a cube around it.
  • The cube size grows with the enchantment level (radius = level + 1).
  • Broken blocks disappear instantly, without particles or sound.
  • All drops from the broken blocks appear at the block you originally broke.
  • Each block broken reduces the tool's durability by 1.
  • The enchantment only works on tools that can normally harvest the block (pickaxes, axes, shovels) and does not affect bedrock or air.
  • It can be applied up to level 5.

Features

  • Area breaking triggered by normal block breaking.
  • Silent removal of blocks, no visual or sound effects.
  • Collected drops are placed at the original break position.
  • Durability is still consumed for each block broken.
  • Supports enchantment levels 1 through 5.

Why Use This Mod?

  • Saves time by clearing out large sections with a single swing.
  • Keeps your inventory tidy because drops appear in one spot.
  • Compatible with vanilla Minecraft 1.12.2 and Forge.

What You'll Notice

  • When you break a block with a pickaxe, axe, or shovel that has the area_dig enchantment, the mod breaks all blocks in a cube around that block.
  • The broken blocks disappear instantly without particles or sound.
