Frequently asked questions

How do I activate vein mining?
Hold down your activation key (default is a configurable keybind) or sneak while looking at a valid ore block, tree, or stone cluster. You'll see a visual outline box appear around all connected blocks that will break when you swing.
Why isn't vein mining working on my pickaxe?
Make sure you're looking directly at a valid block type—the mod works on ore deposits, tree trunks, and large stone groups by default. If you're trying to mine a modded block, check that it's tagged correctly in the mod's configuration or that the mod author has added support for it.
Can I use vein mining on blocks from other mods?
Yes, the mod automatically recognizes blocks from other mods if they use standard block tags for ores, logs, and stone. If a specific mod's blocks aren't working, you may need to add them manually through the config file.
What tunnel shapes can I dig?
You can select from preset digging shapes like 3×3 tunnels, 2×1 shafts, and staircases through the keybind settings menu. Each shape lets you carve out stone or ore in a specific pattern with a single swing.
