Viner - The New Veinminer Mod!
Welcome to Viner, a mod inspired by the classic Veinminer! With Viner, you can mine blocks in veins, saving you precious time from digging into walls. It's all about efficiency and customizability!
How It Works
Viner allows you to mine an entire vein of blocks at once, as long as they are designated as "Vineable." Simply hold down the Vine Key while breaking blocks, and experience the efficiency of Viner. The mod mines adjoining blocks together in a single action, streamlining your mining process.

Main Features
Vein Mining
- Mine entire veins of blocks in one go. If blocks are part of a vein and configured as "Vineable," Viner allows you to break them all with a single action.
Customizable Activation Key
- Simple and intuitive, Viner activates when you hold down the configured activation key (shift by default) while mining, making it easy to switch between standard and vein mining.
Shape Vining
- Hold your "vine" key and scroll with your mouse wheel to switch between regular vining and shape vining. Customize the mining shape with advanced configurations.
Inclusion and Exclusion Lists
- Control which blocks are vein-mined with inclusion and exclusion lists. This feature lets you fine-tune your mining to specific blocks or exclude certain blocks as needed.
Vine All Option
- The "Vine All" feature allows Viner to mine any block.
Hunger Penalty
- The "Hunger Penalty" feature reduces the players' hunger when they use the Viner action. Customize the amount of hunger per block mined with advanced configurations.
