MoreVanillaLib Mod FAQ

20 questions players actually ask, answered.

Where do I find the config file for MoreVanillaLib?
The config file is located in your game's config folder and uses the TOML format. You can edit it directly with any text editor, and changes take effect after restarting your game.
How do I turn off extra drops from tools?
Set `extraDrop = false` in the config file under the `[features]` section to disable tools dropping extra items when used.
What's the difference between doubleDrop and extraDrop?
Double drop gives you extra ore blocks when mining (like getting 2 diamonds instead of 1), while extra drop is a random chance for tools to drop any item when used, controlled by separate settings.
How do I make bone tools better against skeletons?
Bone axes and swords already have `extraDamage = true` by default, giving them bonus damage against skeletons and wither skeletons; you can also enable `headDrop = true` to make them drop heads at a 5% chance.
Can I disable paper tools hurting me?
Yes, set `damageByPaperTools = false` in the config to prevent taking damage when using paper tools.
How do I enable auto-smelting with fiery tools?
Set `autoSmelt = true` in the config file; fiery tools will then automatically smelt blocks as you mine them instead of dropping raw ore.
Why are glowstone tools dropping so much dust?
With `glowstoneDrops = true` (the default), glowstone tools always drop 4 glowstone dust per block; disable this setting if you want normal drops.
How do I increase tool durability?
Edit the durability values in the `[amounts.durabilities]` section of the config file—higher numbers mean tools last longer before breaking.
What does the multiplier setting do for hammers and excavators?
The multiplier in `[amounts.durabilities]` increases the durability cost of hammers and excavators; a higher multiplier means they consume durability faster when breaking multiple blocks.
