About this Mod

ImpostOre
ImpostOre is a simple mod that makes ores have a small chance to come alive when broken and attack you. The living ores have a 2.5% chance to spawn from any ore, though this is configurable. They will drop their respective ore when killed, if they are killed with a pickaxe that is capable of mining the ore.
This mod should work with any and all mods that add ores, as long as they are in the proper ore tag.

Server lagging with ImpostOre – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if ImpostOre consumes the most tick time.
