Mining Bomb

Mining Bomb (server-side NeoForge, MC 1.20.2)

  • Adds a server-only mining bomb that clears an 8×8×8 cube and only drops ore loot. Non-ore blocks are removed without drops; unbreakables like bedrock are ignored.
  • Right-click a block with a Mining Bomb (special TNT with the MiningBomb tag) to trigger the blast instantly; a short explosion sound/particles play where you clicked.
  • Crafting: shaped recipe G R G / R T R / G R G (G=Gunpowder, R=Redstone dust, T=TNT) produces the tagged Mining Bomb with a gold name. Recipe unlocks when you have TNT and redstone.
  • Command: /miningbomb (permission level 2) gives the tagged bomb to the running player; if the inventory is full it drops at your feet.
  • Compatible with vanilla clients because it adds no custom registries or assets; it only uses data-pack recipes and server events.
