VeinBreaker: Next-Gen Smart Ore Vein Mining
Tired of mining ores one block at a time? VeinBreaker brings an ultra-smooth, lightweight, and fully customizable vein mining experience to Minecraft Bedrock. Mine entire ore clusters instantly by sneaking with your pickaxe.
Achievement Friendly: no experimental toggles required, so achievements stay fully enabled in your world..
Key Features
- Sneak-to-Mine Simplicity: mine normally whenever you want. Sneak (shift/crouch) to instantly break the entire connected vein.
- Complete Ore Coverage: works with all Overworld and Nether ores, including stone variants, deepslate variants, and Ancient Debris.
- Full Enchantment Synergy: Fortune fully calculates and spawns bonus ore drops per block mined, Silk Touch yields raw ore blocks instead of minerals, and Unbreaking applies vanilla probability reduction to durability consumption.
- Smart Tool Protection: the chain-break stops immediately before your pickaxe reaches 0 durability, never accidentally break your favorite pickaxe.
- Zero-Lag BFS Batching Engine: processes blocks in a micro-tick queue (2 blocks/tick), mining huge 100+ block coal or copper veins with a steady 20 TPS and zero server freezing.
- Direct Drop Teleportation: mined ores and XP orbs teleport directly to the player's break position, no lost ores falling into lava or deep pits.
- Built-In Settings Stick & UI: a convenient in-game menu to toggle vein mining on/off, customize block limits (16 to 512), or restore defaults.
- 100% Addon Compatible: does not use
player.json, seamlessly combines with any other behavior pack or custom armor/weapon addon.
