Onion Block is a datapack that changes how some blocks are broken down. There are block mining stages, just like peeling onion!
For example:
- To mine a tree you need to strip log first and then mine stripped log.
- To get cobblestone you need to cobble stone, then break down cobblestone into cobblestone slab and gravel, then craft 2 cobblestone slabs into 1 cobblestone.
In addition to player mining blocks, its also changes how they get blown up:
- with 50% chance block turns into the next stage and drops corresponding loot
- if 50% failed, block drops correspinding loot and drops loot of next stage
All additions make Waxed Oxidized Chiseled Copper the hardest block to mine or blow up.
Even though version is 26.x.x, it should work for any version that supports macros functions and some used loot table and advancements features.
