About this Mod

Tool Levels adds a pickaxe mastery system to Minecraft. As you mine blocks, your pickaxe gains experience in two categories — Stone and Ore — and levels up to unlock powerful bonuses.

Two independent progression tracks: Stone and Ore
Stone leveling unlocks mining speed bonuses
Ore leveling unlocks mining speed and extra drop chance bonuses
Progress is stored in the pickaxe's NBT — lose your pickaxe, lose your progress
Action bar displays your current level and blocks until next level
Toast notifications and level-up sound on level up
Fireworks effect on MAX level
Fully configurable — max level, level curve, bonus amounts, and more
Compatible with all modpacks — extra ore blocks and stone blacklist configurable

Commands:

/toollevels setlevel <stone/ore> — set your pickaxe's level
/toollevels info — display detailed stats for your current pickaxe

Max level (default: 10)
Blocks required per level (separate for stone and ore)

Frequently Asked Questions

Tool Levels server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Tool Levels compatible with forge?

Tool Levels officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.20.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Tool Levels – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Tool Levels consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
