About this project
What does Modern Mining add?
Modern Mining
Modern Mining adds a full tiered drill progression system to Hytale, built for players who want faster, cleaner, and more satisfying mining without losing control over where they dig.
Start with a simple Tier 1 drill and upgrade all the way to a powerful Tier 5 legendary drill. Higher tiers unlock larger mining areas, faster digging speeds, bigger fuel capacity, and better overall mining performance.
Features
- 5 drill tiers, from basic to legendary
- Configurable mining sizes from 1x1 up to 9x9
- Visual mining area preview so you can see exactly what will be mined
- Offset controls for adjusting your mining area
- Fuel system powered by Fire Essence
- Per-drill fuel storage
- Crouch + F to unload fuel and refund Fire Essence
- Upgrade-based crafting progression through the Workbench
- Custom drill models, icons, animations, and HUD fuel display
- Drill head spinning animation while mining
Controls
- F: Load Fire Essence into the drill
- Crouch + F: Empty the drill fuel and refund Fire Essence
- R: Change drill mining size
- Q: Move Y offset up
- Crouch + Q: Move Y offset down
- E: Move side offset forward
- Crouch + E: Move side offset backward
Progression
Each drill tier builds on the previous one, requiring materials such as copper, iron, cobalt, thorium, adamantite, leather, chitin, emeralds, and more. Fueled drills must be emptied before upgrading, keeping crafting clean and predictable.
