Ore Finder Plus Add-On [Premium]

OreFinder+ allows you to search for valuable ores using advanced tools: eight scanners, improved drills, and even drill transport, backpacks, and miner’s equipment. In total, there are more than 20 new items, a leveling system, and useful mechanics.

After installation, the player receives a guide explaining that all items are created through the miner merchant. He appears in the world randomly and allows you to exchange coal, iron, and diamonds for parts to create tools.

Drills are the main tool for mining

• Level 1 digs like a regular pickaxe.

• Level 2 mines a 3×3 block area.

• Level 3 mines a 5×5 block area.

To upgrade the tool, you need to mine 750 blocks (for level 2) and 1500 (for level 3). The drill has no durability, so it is effectively infinite.

Backpacks have three stages of development

• Level 1 – 9 slots.

• Level 2 – 18 slots and auto-mining of ore.

• Level 3 – 27 slots and auto-smelting of ore.

They are made from cloth and can be dyed. However, the upgrade system is not obvious – it is not explained in the manual.

The set also includes ore scanners, each for its own type (coal, iron, diamonds, etc.). When activated, they show the distance to the nearest vein up to 12 blocks, and when approaching, they emit a sound and highlight the direction with particles.

There is also a miner’s set: armor with a lamp on the helmet, providing dim lighting at night and a small amount of damage resistance. The main means of transport is the Super Drill, a drill machine that digs down in steps.

Despite the original idea, the add-on has some flaws: duplication of backpacks, lack of durability of tools, and weak upgrade logic. Overall, it resembles old Java mods from ten years ago and will suit those who like experiments and mine automation.
