About this project

What does Ore finder add?

ore finder

The ore finder mod lets you search for ores you want to make life easier.

How does it works?

the ore finder tier 1 will search in a 30 blocks area (15 blocks on each side of the player) and will tell you if the ore you have selected was found in that area, it will give you a distance, but no coordinates of vein size yet
the ore finders all have durability and a cooldown to not make it to powerful (and cause problems in the cose)
