Void Digger

Void Diggers

Void Diggers adds a sniffer-like creature that digs resources out of the ground for you. It was made for skyblock, where the ground is all you have.

The creature

• Hatches from an egg and grows through **five stages**: Cub, Young, Adult, Mature and Ancient.
• Has **six hidden stats**: Smell, Dig Speed, Stamina, Growth, Luck and Fertility. Read them with the **Lens**.
• Works in cycles: it searches, digs and rests. Each dig drops loot that depends on the block it stands on and on its stage. Older stages unlock rarer items.
• The dug block is rarely used up (8% by default, configurable).
• Cubs and Young follow an adult. The voice changes with the stage.

What it digs

Seeds, spores, acorns, pine cones and the like can be planted with right click.

Breeding

Build a 3x3 **Digger Nest**, or let a ready digger build one by itself. Two Mature or Ancient diggers near a nest court each other and lay an egg. The cub inherits the average of its parents with a small mutation. A carrot makes the try always succeed.

Extras

• In-game guide book (craft it with a book and the Lens).
• JEI integration (optional): see what each ground drops at each stage.
• Creative command to give eggs with chosen stats: /voiddigger egg.
• Config for timers, chances, growth items and breeding item.

Requirements

NeoForge for Minecraft 26.1.2. JEI is optional.
