Essential Survival Tweaks Mod adds a rich collection of survival adjustments, custom ores, and modpack tools to Minecraft. It introduces realistic block breaking where bare hands cannot break wood or stone right away. The mod adds new village spawns to snowy biomes, brings quartz into the Overworld, and introduces advanced teleporters alongside custom coins.
