Frequently asked questions
How do I start vein mining?
Press the V key (default) while looking at an ore block to instantly mine the entire connected vein. You can change the keybind in your mod settings if V conflicts with another mod.
What's the difference between Full Vein, 3×3, and Staircase modes?
Full Vein mines all connected ore blocks of the same type. 3×3 mines a 3×3 area in front of you. Staircase mines in a diagonal pattern going up or down, useful for creating mineshaft tunnels.
How do I switch between mining modes?
You can cycle through modes using a keybind (check your mod settings) or by holding sneak while pressing V to access a mode menu, depending on your configuration.
Does vein mining work with Silk Touch and Fortune?
Yes, the mod fully respects both enchantments—Silk Touch will preserve ore blocks as items, and Fortune will apply its multiplier to all blocks mined in the vein.
