Better Mineshafts Mod is a mod dedicated to improving the generation of abandoned mineshafts, which are traditionally generated underground in various game biomes. The new abandoned mineshafts will be more dynamic, larger, and feature loot chests. Additionally, this mod supports Yung’s Better Caves, which is created by the same developer. These revamped abandoned mineshafts will have distinct designs depending on the biome in which they are generated, with a total of nine variants of abandoned mineshafts. In these updated versions, players can discover abandoned workstations, mineral deposits at the end of certain tunnels, abandoned miner outposts, and surface openings.
Features:
- 9 biome variants, including a rare mushroom mineshaft.
- Completely customizable mineshafts! Check for the bettermineshafts folder in your config folder after running the mod for the first time.
- Abandoned workstations.
- Workstation cellars.
- Ore deposits at the end of some tunnels with coal, iron, redstone, gold, lapis, emerald, and (very rarely) diamond.
- Abandoned miners’ outposts (rare).
- Surface openings (very rare).
- Includes support for lanterns and candles from Rustic, Charm, and Varied Commodities.
