Cave Blasters
Adds naturally generated explosive veins underground.
About this Mod
Features
Explosive Veins: Find explosive stone and deepslate veins underground. Mining them triggers a chain reaction explosion.
Tunnel Generation: The explosions carve natural pathways, shortcuts, and bridges between caves.
Custom Assets: Includes custom animated glowing textures and sound effects.
Configurable: You can easily change the spawn rates in the config file.
v1.0 Note
This is the first release. Core mechanics and chain reactions work perfectly, but the vein placement/generation algorithm is still being improved.
