Mining Fatigue Reproduction

Bringing mining fatigue back to reason — linear slowdown, no exponential explosion, saving your mouse and your patience.

📖 Introduction

In vanilla Minecraft, the Mining Fatigue effect decreases mining speed exponentially with each level:

• Level I: speed × 0.3 (3.33× slower)
• Level II: speed × 0.09 (11× slower)
• Level III: speed × 0.027 (37× slower)
• Higher levels make blocks nearly unbreakable, especially in Ocean Monuments where multiple Guardian attacks stack the effect and completely ruin the mining experience.

This mod changes Mining Fatigue to a linear slowdown: each level reduces your speed by only one additional factor.

No more exponential nightmare — smooth, predictable, and still threatening.

✨ Features

• Linear scaling: Speed = original speed ÷ (level + 1). Higher levels are slower, but never drop to zero instantly.
• Cap protection: Configurable maximum slowdown divisor (default 10) to prevent excessively high levels from making mining virtually impossible.
• Vanilla compatible: Efficiency enchantments and Haste effects still counter the slowdown normally; milk clears the effect.
• Pure & clean: Only changes mining speed — movement speed, attack speed, potion duration, and all other attributes remain untouched.
• Lightweight: No extra dependencies; drop in and play.

🎯 What This Fixes

• ✅ Ocean Monuments are no longer “no-mining zones” — even with stacked Mining Fatigue, you can still break blocks slowly but steadily.
• ✅ The breaking progress bar never freezes; every hit gives feedback, making the game feel responsive.
• ✅ High-level fatigue is no longer a death sentence — you still have a chance to act, just slower.
• ✅ Perfect for survival, building, and exploration — improves experience without breaking balance.

⚙️ Customization (Optional)

• Configuration file: config/miningfatigue_reproduction-common.toml
  • maxDivisor: Maximum slowdown factor (default 10). Levels beyond this won't slow you further.
• In-game command (requires operator permissions):
  • /miningfatigue setMaxDivisor <number> – change the cap on the fly.

🛠 Compatibility

• Minecraft 1.20.1, Forge 47.x.
• Should work with all 1.20.x sub‑versions (tested on 1.20.1).
• No known conflicts with OptiFine, Sodium, or other mods (only listens to break‑speed events).
