About this Mod

Zone Miner is a NeoForge mod that adds configurable area mining.

Switch between simple mining, 3x3x3, 5x5x5, or a fully custom mining shape, all while keeping vanilla-style durability handling and tool restrictions.

Features

  • Multiple mining modes:
    • 1x1
    • 3x3x3
    • 5x5x5
    • Custom
  • In-game keybinds to switch modes and open the custom area settings
  • Mining direction follows the player's look direction
  • Live white block outline preview before breaking
  • Only breaks extra blocks when the held tool is appropriate
  • Ore vein support
  • Vanilla block breaking logic is preserved for drops and interactions

Two Versions Available

This project is available in two separate versions for NeoForge :

Zone Miner

The standard version uses legacy durability.
Your tool loses durability based on the number of blocks actually broken.
You're on the right page!

Zone Miner Single Use

This version keeps the same mining features, but only uses one durability point for the whole area break.
You'll find it here!

Controls

  • Y : Cycle mining mode
  • U : Open custom area settings

Custom Area Settings

The custom mode lets you configure:

  • Left
  • Right
  • Up
  • Down
  • Depth

Zone Miner is designed to stay simple and practical
no enchantment requirement, no complicated setup, just configurable area mining with two durability variants depending on how you want to play.
